It would seem that the answer is "yes," according to a recent article from Forbes.
The article reports that an annual survey from FlexJobs shows that an astounding 66% of respondents feel that they are more productive when working from home versus in the office, chiefly due to fewer distractions (76%) and avoiding the stresses of a daily commute (70%). A further 46% of respondents said that they enjoyed working remotely because they tended to have fewer meetings.
A number of companies, including Amazon, Salesforce, Philips, Nielson, Dell and Sigma, are growing their remote workforces – in contrast to recent headline-grabbing moves by tech giants IBM and Microsoft to move in the opposite direction and bring those jobs in-house. Despite those high-profile decisions, virtual work continues to be an essential component of success for many companies, which means learning the skills and strategies to do it well are increasingly important.
Virtual Team Builders offers two-hour courses for virtual teams looking to brush up on the basics: Setting the Ground Work is a great start for virtual teams, and How to Optimize Virtual Team Meetings is an excellent follow-up to ensure your meetings are productive and succinct.

Marie Antoinette
Versailles, by Kathryn Davis
I didn't like this much. Maybe I've read too much Marie Antoinette recently, but the free-association format didn't really do anything for me. I think I tried to read this once before, and stopped, but now I own it. Look for this one on Bookcrossing.

Dear Campus Community,
I am pleased to announce that the search to fill the position of Director of Communications & Marketing has come to a successful conclusion and that we are fortunate to welcome not only one but two superbly-qualified, director-level professionals to the department: Martha Lynn as Executive Director and Lori Maxfield as Director.
The creation of the position of Executive Director reflects the importance of the multiple roles the department of Communications & Marketing plays both on campus and within the community, as well as its key strategic focus on increasing domestic enrollment.
As Executive Director, Martha brings ten years of director-level communications and marketing experience at Bastyr University. Maximizing on the strengths of her experience and skillset, Martha's focus will be to continue to position our college as the area's premier two-year institution, building community partnerships and relationships, and strengthening the communications efforts of the college as a whole.
Lori brings unique recruitment expertise to her position as Director, and will focus her talents on leading marketing efforts strategically targeting domestic enrollment and retention. This position meets the objectives of an approved aSAP to increase our enrollment through focused recruitment strategies.
As we work as a college to understand the implications of the new allocation model as it relates to Shoreline, I am thrilled with the vision that our Executive Team has shown in tackling marketing our great college with these seasoned communications and marketing professionals. Dividing areas of focus between an Executive Director and Director will allow the college to utilize and maximize the strengths of each and uniquely position our college to rise to the challenges ahead and step into the future with confidence.
Martha Lynn is beginning in her capacity as Executive Director today Monday, August 1 and Lori Maxfield will assume her new position as Director on Monday, August 15. Please join me in welcoming both to campus.
Thank you to all who participated in the open forums and provided input. Your feedback was most helpful!

In December 2014, Maddy began having terrible headaches that eventually caused vomiting and vision problems. A number of doctor and hospital visits led to the discovery of a cancerous brain tumor called medulloblastoma. Maddy underwent emergency brain surgery in her home state of Texas to remove the tumor. Her family then turned to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital® for her continuing care. At St. Jude, Maddy's treatment plan includes chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing, or food – because all a family should worry about is helping their child live. "St. Jude lets us continue living our lives while still saving to pay our bills at home," said Maddy's mom. "The assistance with housing and the cost of food while we're here, it's just helped out tremendously." Maddy loves Disney princesses, and before treatment, she played soccer on a team coached by her dad.

Hillary Clinton walked out for the three presidential debates against Republican nominee Donald Trump in three distinct and pantsuits: one red, one blue with white lapels, and one white. Coincidentally, the looks resemble particular outfits sported by key Death Row Records figures in the 1990s.
Did Clinton crib her style from Suge Knight, Snoop Dogg, and Tupac? Charlamagne Tha God was on the case Wednesday morning. The Democratic nominee for president joined The Breakfast Club on Power 105.1, where the host brought up the meme of the side-by-side photos to Clinton. She cracked up, and the jig was up.
"I think Death Row and a lot of other fashion sources have influenced my look, don't you?" she joked.
Charlamagne sported another brand of Clinton meme, rocking a T-shirt showing Clinton wearing a New York Yankees cap. She explained that, while the Chicago Cubs were her National League team, she picked the Yankees as her American League side. She is very much excited about the Cubbies this year.

Running on Saturday
Remembering Why I Run

Today I did something I've never done, I ran just to run. I didn't have a watch tracking my miles or pace, I didn't have a partner beside me and I didn't really even have a clue where I was going or when I would get there. It was just me, the road, my music and a long line of orange cones guiding the way.
Since I started Race Day 5 years ago, my personal running has not been a top priority. Sure, I still run, but not consistently, not far and definitely, not fast. My runni...Read Full Post »

[dropcap style="font-size: 60px; color: #9b9b9b;"] M[/dropcap]y second born had a fabulous birthday yesterday. He is Mr. Easy Going, and he would have been happy with just his Captain America cake and a Bumblebee Transformer. Yet he also got "The Gruffalo" movie and a few books, and he was happy, happy. I was completely happy to attempt his cake, but I will say that it was a lot of work. I didn't even own round cake pans, so I was out at 9pm on Wednesday shopping for the right pans. Then I stayed up till 11:30 to make the completely homemade cake (why do I do these things?). And of course, one of the cakes fell apart when I took it out of the pan. I waited till nap time yesterday to tackle the frosting, and it was so hot in our house that the frosting ran everywhere. Big sigh . . . so it was what it was. The perfectionist side of me was embarrassed to show it to anyone. BUT I got two big "OHHHH, Captain America!!" exclamations when the boys saw the cake, so that made it all right. And my husband said it was the best tasting strawberry cake he'd ever had. So that made all of the work and the less than perfect outcome more than good enough for me.
And I woke up this morning with the the realization that I keep getting the overwhelming feeling of "gotta do more, gotta be more." This perfectionist tendency is really a battle for me, and it seems to hit most when I'm largely pregnant and tired. Baby Girl has kept me up most nights as she's been laying so low; the mid-wife thinks it's time for her to get head down so that both she and I will be more comfortable. If only we could just make that happen. So the mid-wife also recommended that I start going to the pool to relieve all the pressure from the baby's laying right in my lap. Truthfully, I wanted to look at her and say, "do I look like someone who should be getting in a swimsuit right now?" But I didn't, because I know she's trying to help. Anyway, so this needing to do and be more kicks in right when I'm actually physically able to do less. Funny how that happens. And I just happened to remember that I had written a blog post on this very topic at some point in the past. I couldn't remember when I wrote it, but funnily enough, when I reread it, I noticed it had been about 3 months before E was due. Right around the same timing that I'm in now with this pregnancy. You can read the post, (http://micahsheart.com/gotta-do-more-gotta-be-more/), if you'd like, but the thing that struck me as I read it is the last paragraph:
And maybe the baby should actually be named some variation of joy and rest?? Just a thought . . .
We actually ended up with a name that means "God's gracious help," which I felt we so needed at the time of E's birth. And I really do feel that God has been just that to us. I love the name and the meaning, and E is so joyful and he rests so easy. God knew exactly what we needed when He gifted us with our second son. It blesses me to look back and see God's hand in all of it.
And with this baby, we named her several years ago when we were living in England and considering the start of trying to have our first baby. I always thought I would have girls, so we were discussing girl names while driving past the River Eden in Mark's hometown. I just happened to say "hey, what about Eden?" He immediately like it, and it went from there. Her full name will actually mean "beautiful paradise or delight," but I've come to realize that Eden actually has a deeper meaning. In fact, it is even used as a verb in the Old Testament –
This verb is used only once: In Nehemiah 9:25 it reads, "…and luxuriated in Thy great goodness."
I've been praying that God would give us a bit of a glimpse into what this baby's purpose is, what her unique personality and giftings will be, and I haven't gotten much. But what has struck me is that she will be a reminder to us that we're to luxuriate (take delight) in the great goodness of God. And He's been so good to us and to Baby E throughout this pregnancy. I pray that she will always know and recognize His goodness in her life as well. I also pray that because of God's work in her life and in her being she will be one in whom the beauty and pleasure/delight of God will be clearly seen. I pray that she will just allow God to flow through her and that all of her beauty will just be a reflection of His. I've also been praying that her brothers will enjoy her as much as we will.
And so, in conclusion, rather than going with this instinct to be more and do more, I'm choosing to just focus on His goodness. Just as I carry this baby, He carries us. My flesh may say that I'm not doing enough, but I can choose to go with what my spirit says which is that resting in Him is what is needed. Dwelling in His goodness is the better place to be. Gotta delight more, gotta dwell more . . . for He is good. Happy Friday . . .

Show & Tell - Luc Robitaille
The 2008 Legends Masterpieces hockey set is one of my favorite hockey sets so far this year, so when I saw this Robitaille Canvas Clippings card for $1.75 I had to go for it. I love the look of these cards. The card itself is actually set back inside the darker frame. You can't go wrong with a jersey card of a sure fire Hall of Famer for under $2. Robitaille had an impressive career, recording 4 100 point seasons. He retired with the most career goals (668) and points (1,394) for a left winger. The only thing that would've made this card better would be if they had pictured him in the older 90's style Kings uniform.
On a side note, if anyone can help me with completing this set I'd love to trade. If you've got any of the cards on my Want List please get in touch with me and maybe we can work something out.

Bathroom Faucets - Bathroom is actually a position for the complete family washed up as well as homeowners. Furthermore, the guests who simply washed up or visit merely to rinse arms often us the bathroom. The bathrooms must be built gorgeous and comfortable. So that people will feel comfortable deploying it. Thus, we provide Stylish Bathroom Faucets that might inspire you.
A developer key that is little is the fact that since bathrooms are often smaller rooms, splurging over a few larger - stop resources and finishes could be a great investment that can make your place seem incredibly luxurious. Consequently before you matter a requirement that just the most elementary will be featured by your bathroom, have a look at materials for floor and wall coverings, inexpensive resources, counters and more around the higher end of the spectrum. You may find that introducing one or more of those resources into a small part of your stylish bathroom faucets is your budget.
How To Choose A Bathroom Faucet with Stylish Bathroom Faucets
Tidy up the tiny details that could be creating the bathroom look dirtier than it's, like stimulating the grout and tub caulk (although in case you hire, please do ask approval before seeking). Commit the energy putting in components you adore in there — from a shower curtain to rug to art — so you don't spot the material you can't change much. Create small substitutes of things such as a mirror or lamps to help you add your personal persona to the place (but return it back again to the originals when your rental is up). While in question, include new flowers. That all about stylish bathroom faucets.

Did You Know?
Foreshorten first appeared in a 1606 treatise on art by the British writer and artist Henry Peacham: "If I should paint ... an horse with his brest and head looking full in my face, I must of necessity foreshorten him behinde." Peacham's "foreshorten" probably comes from "fore-" (meaning "earlier" or "beforehand") plus "shorten." The addition of "fore-" to verbs was a routine practice in Peacham's day, creating such words as "fore-conclude," "fore-consider," "fore-instruct," and "fore-repent." "Foreshorten," along with words like "foresee" and "foretell," is one of the few "fore-" combinations to still survive.

Positive Internet
Friday, March 31, 2017
A little later today, but here are a few articles I read the past week that had me thinking, educated, and hopeful.
1) I have found that the more short-tempered I am with my kids, the more distracted I have been. I loved this article about how that really is the case, and how our tendency to get distracted by both technology, our "to-do lists," and our work, we are not allowing ourselves to be the parent our kids need us to be. And when we do away with those distractions, then all of our lives are made better for it.
2) My goodness, this video essay brought me to tears. This little girl's brother is disabled, and here is how she views him and what she loves about him.
3) Want to have a lasting AND happy marriage? Mix up your date night.
4) What it looks like when nobody loves you. (It's another tear jerker!)

One of the most common questions travelers have about Iceland is: When is the best time to visit Iceland? Majority of people think that Iceland is blistering cold. There's no denying that Iceland is cold, but not as cold as you'd think.
Generally speaking, Iceland has cold, windy winters and cool summers. Each season brings something for visitors. So, there's no good or bad time to visit Iceland.
If we talk about the winter season, which typically lasts from December to February, temperatures can hit as low as -30°C, especially in northern Iceland. Expect shorter days with a lot of snow and ice in winter.
Winter is a great time to visit Iceland mainly because it is not as crowded as it is in other seasons.
If you are interested in viewing the majestic Northern Lights in lceland, you should plan you trip between September and April. The best time to see them is February-March (spring) and September-October (autumn). Spring and autumn are pleasant and you can expect clear roads with some rain and long twilights. The temperature lies between 2 to 10°C.
The weather is mild and comfortable in summer. The snow has also melted by midsummer (June and July). Furthermore, you can expect longer days in the summer months. It doesn't get dark in summertime. That being said, some places are crowded so make sure you book your trip in advance.
Rainfall occurs from October to February in Iceland. It's lowest in May and June. The western and southern parts of Iceland receive the maximum amount of rainfall. However, Iceland's weather can be a bit unpredictable. You should prepare yourself for the unexpected.
Make sure you have warm, comfortable clothes, even in summertime. Also, bring good quality shoes and a bathing suit. Boots are a must for the winter season. You will need a bathing suit for geothermal pools.
Another important consideration is to select the best Iceland tour packages. No matter when you plan to visit Iceland, planning a holiday is a major undertaking. It's important to pick a holiday deal that suits your budget and needs.
At Iceland4less.com, we offer a wide range of Iceland holiday deals for you to choose from.

BMBS COST Action BM1404
European Network of Investigators Triggering Exploratory Research on Myeloid Regulatory Cells (Mye-EUNITER)
In cancer, infection and inflammation, the immune system's function can be dysregulated, contributing to disease pathology. As part of this process, instead of fighting disease, immune cells may suppress beneficial immune responses and increase pathology. Despite their pathophysiological importance, the identity and biology of the so called myeloid regulatory cells (MRCs) is poorly understood. Depending on the MRC subtype and the respective disease, conflicting results have been published. This Action will form a network of researchers and clinicians which aims to establish a gold standard of common protocols and harmonizing guidelines for the analysis and clinical monitoring of MRCs. There is also a deficit in the translation of findings from animal models to humans, and Mye-EUNITER will build an analytical mouse-monkey-man correlation line. Standardized and validated tools for MRC analysis will aid the development of cellular biomarkers of disease and guide the design of novel therapies to manipulate the functions of MRCs.

Two weekends ago (June 15th) I went on an impromptu excursion to Buncrana, Donegal.
It was an amazing weekend, so nice to be out of the big city and the chaos of Dublin and just breathe in the fresh countryside air. The views were amazing and honestly, of all the places I've visited in Ireland so far, this little town tucked away in the north west of the island was by far the most beautiful I've seen. The rugged and untouched landscape was what made this place so amazing. I woke up the first morning to the sound of sheep bahhiing in the front yard and ran to the window with the biggest smile on my face. The first day was full of rain so we went on a car ride, toured the town of Buncrana (which took all of 5 minutes :P) and then went to see Prometheus in Derry, Northern Ireland. Buncrana is about a 30 minute drive away from the border which was perfect.
On Sunday, we went on the quad bike, up the hillside behind the house and it was one of the most fun times I've had in a while. Peaceful and calm with views like I've never seen before. Then we jumped in the car and went for a drive through several small towns to get to Malin Head. The most northern tip of Ireland. You can't go no further! Apparently on a clear day you can even see Scotland.
I was sad to leave, can't wait to go back.
Before I even made it Ireland I remember hearing from several people back home who had visited Ireland that Donegal was gorgeous. Now that I've seen it I can completely understand what those people mean.
Suited up for the Quad. I was wearing my own clothes, then a pair of old track suit bottoms, a hoody and then this pair of blue coveralls. I also had gloves and a hat.
I was laughing as I got ready but was thankful later when the wind made my eyes tear up. There is definitely a method to the madness.
Up by the windmills, exploring on the Quad.
The Sheeps!
Rolling turf - part of every Irish childhood and apparently a very unpleasant job!
Onwards to Malin Head
View from the bottom.
We thought we saw a Puffin fly by and got really excited....turns out it wasn't a Puffin.
Past visitors wrote out their names all over this hill in stones. One super large one spells out Eire (Ireland in Gaelic) and we later realized it was written using huge pieces of cement and rocks...must have taken ages.
We started walking along the cliffs and came upon this burnt out car. We were both fascinated by it and the randomness of it being all alone in this remote place. Figured it must have been a crime dump - burning the car to get rid of risky evidence! So naturally we started snapping pictures.
These cliffs were more stunning to me than the Cliffs of Moher. Remote, undisturbed, rugged...gorgeous.
At cliffs edge...

Marvin Thomas Deboise, 56, was charged Monday night with attacking a woman with a knife at a mobile home near Knightdale and with hitting the same woman in Raleigh last month.
Wake County sheriff's deputies arrested Deboise at the Fig Lane home of the woman they said he attacked with a knife. He was charged with assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury.
He also was charged on a warrant that Raleigh police obtained Jan. 23 charging him with misdemeanor assault on the same woman, saying he hit her in the face.
Deputies also charged Deboise on a warrant saying he failed to register a new address as a sex offender. He was convicted in Jefferson County, Ky., in 1985 of an offense involving a 10-year-old and got out of prison in 2000, according to the state's sex-offender registry.
The registry lists his last verified address, in October, as 330 S. Salisbury St. in Raleigh, which is the Wake County Justice Center and the sheriff's office.
Booking records from Monday night show his address as a men's shelter at 1420 S. Wilmington St.
The charges involving the woman were classified as domestic violence, and Deboise was held without bail for a Tuesday court appearance.

The ANNIKA Foundation, Hall of Fame golfer Annika Sorenstam's charitable organization, was awarded a $50,000 grant from The Edyth Bush Charitable Foundation to further its mission to teach children the importance of living a healthy, active lifestyle through fitness and nutrition, and offer aspiring junior golfers opportunities to pursue their dreams.
One of Central Florida's most recognized and respected organizations, the Edyth Bush Charitable Foundation provides funding for important programs focusing on education, arts, health and human services for many needy individuals, families and organizations in Central Florida. "We are very thankful to The Edyth Bush Charitable Foundation for this funding," said Annika. "I appreciate that they see the value in our many programs and our expanding presence in the Central Florida community." The grant will fund the development of several ANNIKA Foundation initiatives, including the Nine Healthy Habits, ANNIKA Junior Day and professional development.
"We are very happy to welcome the ANNIKA Foundation to our long list of Central Florida charitable organizations," said David Odahowski, President and CEO of the Edyth Bush Charitable Foundation. "We're excited to support Annika's passion for teaching young children life lessons through golf with the new Nine Healthy Habits program and ANNIKA Junior Day."
Nine Healthy Habits is a unique children's program being developed in partnership with The First Tee that focuses on promoting health and wellness through golf at over 200 The First Tee chapters and in 4,200 schools around the country. The Nine Healthy Habits teach life-long lessons broken down into nine pillars that children can easily remember and understand. They include energy, play, safety, vision, mind, family, friends, school and community.
ANNIKA Junior Day is an annual initiative of the ANNIKA Foundation that promotes junior golf to underserved children. The event was created in memory of Holly Baxter, a loving mother and golfer who died of brain cancer in 2007. Holly's family asked that an event be created to promote junior golf to underserved children. The day includes a golf clinic led by Annika and skills stations for children to learn about the fundamentals of putting, chipping, swing and fitness. Past participants include children from the Orlando Minority Youth Golf Association OMYGA and the Boys and Girls Club. www.annikafoundation.org.

When we received Scholastic book order forms there was always at least one book in the lineup that was about collecting something. It was usually stamps or coins. I ordered the stamp collecting one because I thought it would make me smarter if I collected something. It would also make me stand out. I would be that girl with the kick ass stamp collection with all sorts of rare stamps. It took me all of about 1 day to realize that the only stamp access I had was through the post office. So I could get the holiday stamps or whatever celebrity stamp had just been released, but so could every freaking other person who ever stood at the counter to buy a mother flippin' stamp!
The most success I've had as a collector is visible on the shelves lining one wall of my room. When there is a law passed against making high heeled black shoes (of any sort), I will stop buying them. Since that doesn't seem likely to happen, my collection will inevitably take me to some sort of hoarder level until someone steps in and makes things normal.
But tonight I'm here to dish with you. I've made friends with another collector. My friend refuses to accept the title, but it stands nonetheless. My friend is a collector of broken people. How do I know? Because I am a broken person. Because I am not the first person to identify the trait. Because it bothers my friend enough for me to know that thought has been put into it to create defensive responses over it.... like a hoarder who refuses to believe they are a hoarder.
The deal is... there is nothing wrong with being broken. As we discussed the issue tonight I did my best to explain my thought process on the topic. Broken is beautiful. Would you be offended if someone said you collected art? Is it wrong to appreciate the lines created by a slightly worn brush? There is beauty in imperfection.
Another friend of mine said once that they're broken and basically held together with a lot of superglue. I've adapted this theory over a few years. Have you ever broken a tea cup? You can put it back together with superglue and it will be back to whole. It might not be perfect, but it will be functional. Have you ever looked at a mosaic? Some of the most beautiful mosaic works are made of imperfect tiles, perhaps broken from tiles once perfectly squared and polished. The colors are varied, the edges are different, but once grouted together... they can be breath taking.
People are not that much different. We break, we fall apart, and we survive. We take our emotional superglue and piece by piece we put ourselves back together. We might not look exactly the same, but we're still functional. We might have a superglue seam... but it's almost certain that we won't break in that spot again. The process makes us whole. It makes us beautiful. I'm not the only one who thinks so.
To my friend out there.... keep on collecting your broken people. If you're lucky, you will have an entire gallery full of broken people one day and it will be the most beautiful collection in the world.
PS. Please do not hang them from walls or stuff them and put them on shelves. That might be taking it a little too far.

The Refugee State: Support the Democratic Central African Republic (DCAR) Abroad!
DCAR HistoryDCAR, the Democratic Central African Republic is a WSLE, a 16 million person quasi-state entity in east central Africa in a contested region where the neighboring countries have largely lost the will to continue fighting but will not allow each other to declare victory. Humanitarian efforts in this disordered area therefore had to provide many basic functions of the State, such as identity services, issuing what amounted to passports, issuing a basic electronic currency and generally trying to keep life going until somebody asserted governance over the area.Eventually, after four or five years of interim governance using electronic democracy software and biometric cell phones, DCAR has begun to have semi-official quasi-state status. Like Taiwan, it cannot safely assert full sovereignty, but the shell of the previous governments of the region have technically passed their legitimacy to the refugee councils of DCAR, and as long as nobody raises an army, nobody seems to mind self-organizing refugees trying to manage their lives until the governments settle their territorial disputes.DCAR EconomyDCAR has migrated from 100% food aid dependency to a mixed economy of high intensity agriculture, algal turf scrubbers for biodiesel and cattle feed, and some network businesses providing transcription and secretarial services. Schools focus on basic survival training, mainly emergency permaculture and basic medicine, while vocational training falls behind because of pessimism about future economic prospects.DCAR has a notable export industry - refugee-run hexayurt factories export about 15,000 houses per year to local populations and occasionally government agencies. The majority of the DCAR hexayurt capacity is for internal use, however, as the population continues to upgrade its living arrangements as the region continues to mature into stability.Watch a Hexayurt Project video field report from DCAR here.
Anybody can support DCAR. You just have to remember how important it is that refugees get political rights to manage their own lives, just as we do. Being a refugee is hard enough without being oppressed too!
If you want to get more involved, contact the other supporters of DCAR, and you might be able to visit and work with the people of DCAR to improve their lives.Â
Just display the DCAR flag wherever you can to let people know that DCAR still matters.

Other suggestions have been offered as a site for the consolidated high school the Roane County Board of Education is planning to build.
Roane County Executive Ron Woody mentioned a 170 acre site in the city of Kingston. Interim Director of Schools Gary Aytes said school officials took a look at it. They determined it isn't a suitable site.
"There's absolutely no way in the world a school could be built up there," Aytes said. "Access to it would have to be a new exit off the interstate. That land is not in discussion. No way."

So, summer is upon us. I usually shift to different listening material. This summer however, I am not checking out all my normal suspects as much as I have in summers past. This summer, I am doing an almost nightly Sun Ra-a-thon. Last night, I checked out Hidden Fire vols. 1 &2 . I am still digging on that Horrors album, Primary Colours but I am finding myself heading towards the Space jams, hence tonight's show as well as longer pieces in general. I have been checking a lot of Amon Duul, Kawabata Makoto, Acid Mothers Temple, Ash Ra Tempel. As well, I have been checking out a lot of Weasel Walter's different projects and all kinds of interesting stuff I have been downloading from the Mutant Sounds site.
I think I have next week's show wrapped up but I have been thinking of scrapping it and starting all over again. It's good but it's not exciting me as much as it should. I can't walk into the KCRW Rok Mosk and Face Engineer X unless I have the real goods. I think I will go back to the drawing board and get it a little more fanaticized.
But tonight, Fanatics, we have a great show for you and I do hope you enjoy it. Until next week, I wish you a safe and happy re-entry into Earth's atmosphere. Oh, and if you see your mother, tell her, STAY FANATIC!!! --Henry

Co-authored by Susan Colaric, Ph.D., Assistant Vice President of Instructional Technology at Saint Leo University.
Higher education has been intensely scrutinized recently for high and increasing tuition prices. Rightly so, as the U.S. Government Accountability Office estimated average annual increases of seven percent from 2002 to 2012.
But nearly on the same pace is the rising cost of textbooks, which during the same time period went up at an average annual rate of six percent. While students no doubt have been aware of the issue all along, cringing at the start of each semester as they tally the costs for course materials, legislators have finally caught on.
In November, Senators Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Al Franken (D-MN) sponsored a bill named the Affordable College Textbook Act, which, if passed, would establish a grant program to make textbooks available online with free access. Digital textbooks can be updated to reflect new information, whereas hard copies were always at the mercy of the latest edition.
It is encouraging that legislators are at least aware of perhaps the greatest hidden expense for college students. It is not uncommon for a full-time student to spend more than $1,000 for textbooks in a single semester.
The price tag has become a barrier to a quality education and plagued completion rates. Students cannot afford to spend this much money on books and as a result are ill-equipped to meet course requirements. A 2011 survey by the Student Public Interest Research Group found that 70 percent of students had not purchased a required textbook due to costs. Even those who don't fail the course outright are still discouraged by below average performance. Many students take fewer courses each term -- even when their tuition is paid by their employer -- because they cannot afford the cost of the required textbooks.
It has long been known that students now seek other options beyond the campus bookstore to find the lowest price, but purchasing or renting from online retailers must allow time and expense for shipping and processing. Delays are common and classes are underway sometimes for weeks before textbooks arrive.
There is no denying that these are significant problems and searches for an adequate solution have been well-documented. Unfortunately, pilot projects across the country have thus far come up empty handed, and it is likely that the Affordable College Textbook Act will suffer the same fate.
Most institutions follow one of two models for textbooks: student-purchase model or university-provided model. Each has their advantages and shortcomings.
The student purchase model allows individuals to seek additional sources for the textbooks. Borrowing a textbook or splitting the cost with a friend can be effective ways of doing that. The downside is that students can also frequently purchase the wrong book by mistake and suddenly the cost incurred rises again.
The university-provided model obviously ensures students obtain the right materials (or ensures they have the materials for the 70 percent who already responded they've taken a course without the book). The downside is that the freedom to comparison shop is now gone..
Given such a Catch 22, what's an institution to do?
At Saint Leo, we have actively pursued various programs to reduce textbook costs to students, including:
• Creating a master syllabus mandating common books for all sections of a course
• Developing customized textbooks where only the chapters and materials applicable to the course are provided and the cost is lowered
• Providing book orders early to bookstores
• Providing options to students for new, used, and digital materials with clear pricing information for each
• Implementing textbook rental programs
• Offering a guaranteed buy-back program
• Providing financial aid vouchers so students can purchase books before their financial aid is distributed
• Using library resources in place of traditional textbooks
These are effective programs that run with very little institutional obligations.
While the bill introduced in the Senate will help bring awareness to this growing problem, I'm skeptical of its tangible benefit if passed. The solution to growing textbook costs does not sit in Washington. It sits on every college and university campus across the country.
One of the biggest factors in the inflation of textbook prices is the revolving door that has become annual edition updates. These changes add no educational value to the book and are simply used by the industry to sell more copies by killing the used textbook market.
The answer to this epidemic is for faculty members to have a real understanding of the texts they utilize and understand when they and their students are being manipulated.
In 2014, finding ways to ease the burden of textbook costs for our students will be a major focus for Saint Leo University.

Community leaders, law enforcement talk goals at NYIT
Suffolk police and the sheriff's department met with county residents and community leaders Saturday in Central Islip to discuss ways to better the relationship between law enforcement and the public.
The town hall meeting was held at the NYIT campus in Central Islip in the wake of recent police-involved shootings and attacks on police officers.
Leaders of the African-American community and Suffolk law enforcement discussed ways to maintain a good relationship with one another, including improved community policing, how to better respond to complaints and how to keep lines of communication open at all times.
"The police department doesn't belong to him or I, it belongs to the citizens of Suffolk County," says Suffolk County Police Chief of Department Stuart Cameron. "We really need to be responsive and transparent to them. We have to tell them what we're doing and how we're doing it and allow them to give us feedback."

Coping As A Single Person Not Easy
Must Learn to Adapt With Changing World
The world is changing and you have to be recognizing that and learn to adopt and change right along with it. Most of us were not ready for divorce and were not prepared or expecting the difficulty in working through loss of a long term relationship.
It took a long time, too, for most of us who have gone through even the second time, to adjust even to the happening of second divorce. Do not think you ever get good at it, but at least the second time, you know you can survive it, whereas the first one, sometimes you are not so sure.
Those of us who have been through that second one, the more than once people, can tell you it is not as scary the second or even third time, but is always still difficult.
One lady told me you just buy a wash and wear wedding gown and "keep trying".
Actually, we have all long known the average marriage now is down around seven years, so if yours lasted longer then that, you were an exceptional, hang in there person.
The average living in one location (or home) is now down to less then that so people are not only changing relationships much more often, they are now in addition, much more likely to up rooting and moving, sometimes a long distance away.
Now, we have the latest "often surprise" uprooting, is loss of a long term job.
If you have been in a major job for a long term, (the longer the more upsetting to lose a job).
Like a divorce, this is one of the most upsetting and emotionally jarring, stressful event in our life. The stress can have detrimental effects on your health and we have ran many articles on this to help you handle it.
If you have a loss of a job, loss of a home (such as foreclosure) (or divorce, etc.) and loss of location (have to move away to find new job, etc. ) loss of a long term relationship, and have all this happen at once, you are in big hazardous "stress" how to handle all this emotionally, and not affect your health (or aging you prematurely).
We made an over ten year study, and still working at it 20 years later, on the subject of loss of a relationship, publish a newspaper on single life and many related web sites, such as Divorce Recovery 101.com and many others, including a talk board (Singles Talk Shop.com) where we all get together and talk about it,
My daughter, Janet Jacobsen, recently finished her Doctorate in communication and has been writing on these subjects, for over 20 years and still does two of our free online newsletters. (Country Singles and AZ Single Scene) and we still publish our newspaper, Country Singles in the Midwest, which she writes for, but have discontinued our 35 year AZ singles newspaper, Single Scene but still maintain the web site with singles events, etc. calendar, directory and articles. (AZ Single Scene.com)
The idea is that animals have to go through each learning experience from scratch, where as man can learn how to do something from those who did it before him.
Everybody it seemed, (back when we got into this,) was going through most of these trying experiences with no help from those who had gone through this, most of these people were those who only wanted to "forget it ever happened" as a bad experience.
We were sort of pioneers in the idea that if you learned what worked for others, you could work through these emotionally jarring experiences in a lot less time.
In divorce, we learned that most people took two years to get back to normal happy functioning life again, but if you understood it, and took the right steps, you could make the change in less then six months.
Now we have looked at the loss of a job, as almost identical to the adjustment you are going through in loss of a relationship.
We have started a web site called: Laid Off go here.com, and a talk board on the subject, called: Laid Off talk here.com. We are starting to make a full time study of handling loss of a job and getting on to a new life with the least damage.
So if you are having trouble handling these major life changes (and challenges) do not feel you are alone. But do understand there are a lot of detours to watch out for and not get hung up, but also know there are some interstate freeways marked out to get on to a new, and even better life fast.
We are trying to be the road map publisher to help speed you on track to a new and better life, how to make lemonade when these life changes are giving you lemons.

British criminal extradition courts are struggling with a 40-fold increase in cases since 2004, the year eastern European nations joined the EU and new rules intended to make extradition easier were introduced.
The Times reports extradition judges from Westminster Magistrates' Court told a House of Lords committee that since the Extradition Act 2003 came into force in January 2004, the number of new cases has risen from 50 a year, to 2,200 in 2013. One campaign organisation said it can take as much as six months just to have a case listed for hearing.
The stark rise in cases correlates with huge wave of migration to the UK which began when eight eastern European nations, including Poland, Hungary, Estonia and the Czech Republic, joined the EU in 2004.
"The court system is in utter collapse. Completely overloaded. It simply cannot cope with the increase in the number of cases," said Steve Law, an extradition lawyer at EBR Attridge solicitors in an ITV documentary, Brits Behind Bars, to be broadcast tonight.
A parliamentary briefing paper published in June revealed that 95 per cent of the 4,000 criminal suspects extradited from the UK to EU member states in the four years before 2013 were non-British citizens, with the great majority coming from eastern Europe.
European Arrest Warrants are valid throughout the EU. When such a warrant is issued, member states are required to arrest and transfer criminal suspects or sentenced criminals to the country issuing it. Only 82 of the new cases in 2013 were from outside the European Arrest Warrant scheme.
Critics of the European Arrest Warrant say it is too expansive, leading to people facing a lengthy extradition process for minor offences which can be disproportionate to the crime.
Others say the backlog is in part due to the increasing complexity of cases within the context of European human rights law. For example, a Lithuanian gangster accused of multiple murders, robberies and extortion fought extradition for four years after arguing he was "too depressed" to be deported and doing so would compromise his "human rights."

Hilary Rice
As a self-taught textile artist, I am keenly aware of how much of my past experiences have accumulated to make me the artist I am today… time spent in my father's woodworking shop taught me how to think creatively; my classical music training is evident in the essence of my artwork, as seen in the flowing line; my strong sense of connection to the divine in my life forms the majority of the subject matter. With fibre as the basis of my work, I am able to freely combine an array of textiles, techniques and materials, often allowing the experimental results to direct my actions.
I am in awe of the world around me, more specifically to the sacred. I respond to this in my artwork, feeling grounded and at the same time illuminated. When I am working on a piece, it feels as though my soul is singing in harmony with the rest of my being, often accompanied by a sense of meditation. Art making, for me, is a way of connecting with the world, a way of connecting what is inside, with what is outside. My work touches and links me to the holy.
Please contact the artist for more information.

Platelet Rich Plasma or PRP is a by-product of blood that is exceptionally rich in platelets. PRP has long been used in hospitals to accelerate the body's own healing process, but it is only fairly recently that advances in technology have allowed this same technique to be used in the dental office.
The blood platelets perform several essential functions in the body, including blood clot formation and the release of growth factors that help to heal wounds. These growth factors stimulate the stem cells to produce new host tissue as quickly as possible, which is why platelet rich plasma is so effective in the post-treatment healing process.
There are several ways in which PRP can be used in clinical dentistry:
Bone Grafting For Implants – This includes closure of a cleft lip and cleft palate deformities, sinus lifts, ridge augmentation, and both inlay and onlay grafts.
Bone Repair – PRP can be used in facial trauma reconstruction, repairing of defects due to tooth removal, or the removal of growths and cysts.
Fistula Repair – This includes the repair of fistulas between the mouth and the sinus cavity.
Reasons for platelet rich plasma treatment
Platelet rich plasma application is now widely used to expedite the post-procedure healing process and is completely safe. Since the blood used will come from the patient's own body, disease transmission is not a factor. Almost all patients report a much greater degree of comfort immediately after their procedure. There are also several more distinct advantages of PRP:
What does platelet rich plasma treatment involve?
The dentist will initially assess if your candidate for PRP treatment. Patients with blood clotting disorders will be unable to take advantage of this treatment. A small (about 2 oz) sample of your blood will be collected during a scheduled outpatient treatment. The blood will be placed into a centrifuge to separate the plasma from the red blood cells. A second centrifuge will be used to concentrate the platelets which contain the growth factor.
Immediately after suturing the wound, the dentist will apply the PRP to the surgical area in a high concentration. This will expedite your healing and decrease the amount of discomfort following the surgery. The dentist will provide aftercare instructions pertaining to the surgery and a prescription for pain medication as required.
If you have any questions about treatment with platelet rich plasma or would like to find out if you are a candidate and can benefit from this treatment, please contact our office today to schedule an appointment.
Friendly, professional, quality work, great communication with the patient for the entire process. Careful discussion of the options and financial structures. No Surprises. Highly Recommend.
Greg T.
I've been going here for years and the staff have always been friendly and remember who you are. Dr. Mack also goes so far as to personally call the evening after major procedures to ensure that you are doing well. The office has great options for keeping you entertained during long procedures, such as listening to music or watching movies. They also stay up to date with the newest dental procedures. I got to enjoy this as I just recently watched a movie while they scanned my mouth, designed and milled my crown and then had it put in place all in one visit. I can't recommend them enough.

Today, annual credit report application form is needed by a person when he needs to analyze his credit ratings. It is significant to reward the annual report due to several purposes the eminent among them is the revealing of identity robberies. It shows in fact the repayment design of a user towards the givers to which he owes cash. It is the pointer of their borrowing and repaying behaviors for a special year which acts as a reference for lenders while checking the loan form.
Organizing individual firm reports at various times through the year offers people an option to watch their annual credit report more often without having to charge for their extra reports. Arranging it can support to be aware of their credit authority or in some terms their lack of control. Arrange their free account is the initial step to getting charge of their economical problem. Analyzing the own credit, setting a scam alert or subscribing to a checking service does not affect a tough investigation. Investigation resides on their credit report till 2 years.
