SINGAPORE, Aug. 23 (Xinhua) -- Singapore's consumer price index increased by 3.1 percent in July due largely to higher costs in transport, housing and food compared to a year ago.
Official data released Monday by the Singapore Department of Statistics showed that cars and petrol were the main items contributing to the 10.7 percent increase in the cost of transport.
Housing cost rose by 2.7 percent on account of higher electricity tariffs and accommodation costs.
Food prices went up by 1.5 percent, arising from dearer prepared meals, vegetables, fresh seafood, meat & poultry as well as rice and other cereals.
For the first seven months this year, the consumer price index rose by 2.1 percent compared with the same period in 2009. Excluding accommodation costs, the consumer price index crept up by 2.9 percent over the same period.

The difficulty of imitating a spent spinner is color matching. Often the mayfly changes in color when it goes spent. A sweet trick is to tie the spinners in a light color, vary the sizes and bring some markers in different colors and match it by the river side.

Because it's Friday, and because I love sharing poetry that plays volleyball with my little heart:
This is Warsan Shire. Warsan is a poet, a linguist, a talent, a light, a mirror to almost everything you and I have experienced and will yet experience in life. My friend and I trade her poems like baseball cards. A few of her works are below. Lastly, go to her Tumblr, please. Buy her book. Fall in love with her.
34 excuses for why we failed at love.
1. I'm lonely so I do lonely things.
2. Loving you was like going to war, I never came back the same.
3. You hate women, just like your father and his father, so it runs in your blood.
4. I was wandering the derelict car park of your heart looking for a ride home.
5. You're a ghost town I'm too patriotic to leave.
6. I stay because you're the beginning of the dream I want to remember.
7. I didn't call him back because he likes his girls voiceless.
8. It's not that he's wants to be a liar, it's just that he doesn't know the truth.
9. I couldn't love you, you were a small war.
10. We covered the smell of loss with jokes.
11. I didn't want to fail at love like our parents.
12. You made the nomad in me build a house and stay.
13. I'm not a dog.
14. We were trying to prove our blood wrong.
15. I was still lonely so I did even lonelier things.
16. Yes, I'm insecure, but so was my mother and her mother.
17. No, he loves me he just makes me cry a lot.
18. He knows all of my secrets and still wants to kiss me.
19. You were too cruel to love for a long time.
20. It just didn't work out.
21. My dad walked out one afternoon and never came back.
22. I can't sleep because I can still taste him in my mouth.
23. I cut him out at the root , he was my favourite tree, rotting, threatening the foundations of my home.
24. The women in my family die waiting.
25. Because I didn't want to die waiting for you.
26. I had to leave, I felt lonely when he held me.
27. You're the song I rewind until I know all the words and I feel sick.
28. He sent me a text that said 'I love you so bad'
29. His heart wasn't as beautiful as his smile.
30. We emotionally manipulated one another until we thought it was love.
31. Forgive me, I was lonely so I chose you.
32. I'm a lover without a lover
33. I'm lovely and lonely.
34. I belong deeply to myself.
Where did you get those big eyes?
My mother.
And where did you get those lips?
My mother.
And the loneliness?
My mother.
And that broken heart?
My mother.
And the absence, where did you get that?
My father.
i'm not sad
but the boys who are looking for sad girls always find me. i'm not a girl anymore and i'm not sad anymore. you want me to be a tragic backdrop so that you can appear to be illuminated, so that people can say 'wow, isn't he so terribly brave to love a girl who is so obviously sad?' you think i'll be the dark sky so you can be the star? i'll swallow you whole.
the craft
the first line of a poem should usher you in,
a door half open,
a warm glow,
an empty seat.
the last line should punch you in the stomach.

Post game quotes: Feb. 25 at Arizona
Feb. 25, 2010
Head coach Joanne Boyle
'It is our last road trip. We have some things at stake. We needed to come in here and take care of business. It wasn't pretty. Arizona, they do a great job and they play that zone. It puts a lot of pressure on us to hit outside shots, which we weren't doing. I am glad to come away with the win. I think our defense and our rebounding got it done tonight.'
'We've done a great job on the boards this year. We knew if they were going to fit in the zone, we were going to have to make them pay for it somehow. One of the ways you can make them pay for it is to just get on the boards. So that was our emphasis.'
On the play of freshman forward Gennifer Brandon and senior guard Natasha Vital
'Two things with Genn tonight was her rebounding and her freethrows. Those were clutch for us. When the game was tight, she spread it apart a bit at the freethrow line and she was getting every, and I mean every, rebound for us. So that was huge for us. Natasha Vital was coming off the bench and trying to knock down a couple of shots, and she did that for us. In games like this, when you are playing nine, everyone has to contribute.

NO WAY JOSE: Caribbean faces new hurricane threat
Already battered by deadly Hurricane Irma, Antigua and Barbuda is today bracing for a new threat---Hurricane Jose, which is forecast to become a "destructive category four system".
Jose has been churning in the Atlantic closely on the heels of Irma which remains a monster category five storm. Irma devastated Barbuda as she rampaged through the Lesser Antilles and northern Caribbean on Wednesday, killing ten people, among them a two-year-old in Barbuda.
Even as Prime Minister Gaston Browne pondered how to begin the reconstruction of the tiny island, came an updated forecast that Jose, which at 6 pm yesterday was still a strong category three hurricane, would strengthen to a "destructive category four system" placing Antigua and Barbuda under a hurricane watch once more.
"We are very worried about Hurricane Jose," Browne declared according to a report by The Washington Post.
It was a change in tone for the prime minister, who, in an interview with Newsday yesterday morning, felt a measure of optimism that emergency authorities were prepared for a second hurricane. He said then, relief efforts were being carried out at a satisfactory pace. Antiguans were advised to remain indoors and the authorities were prepared to evacuate Barbuda if necessary.
Initially, some left Barbuda voluntarily. But with the approach of Jose, the government last evening issued an order for mandatory evacuation of the nearly 2,000 residents to Antigua. The islands are under a state of emergency.
"We had a voluntary evacuation that's now been upgraded to a mandatory evacuation, according to the State of Emergency Act," Browne told Newsday late yesterday. "By tomorrow afternoon (today) we would have evacuated Barbuda.
Antiguans, he said, have been asked to once again "practise diligence and vigilance" as they did for Irma. Browne saw the rapid succession of three major hurricanes---Harvey, Irma and now Jose---as evidence of the effects of climate change.
"Climate change is real. The Caribbean has had to suffer the consequences while they, polluters, deny that it isn't. So we are just hoping with the frequency of these storms and devastation those who are inclined will give reconsideration and there is a need for us to work together to face the real threats." An initial forecast predicted Jose would hit by Sunday, but a 6 pm bulletin by the TT Meteorological Service said the hurricane would surge into an even more powerful storm between today and tomorrow, packing winds of 200 km per hour. Irma had sustained winds of 290 km per hour when she hit the island.
On Wednesday evening, Browne had described Barbuda as "barely habitable" with more than 90 per cent of its housing stock completely destroyed. The death of a child made the destruction even more devastating.
Browne gave a preliminary estimate of US$100 billion to reconstruct Barbuda.
"The relief effort is going very well. We will have a challenge in the actual rebuilding because preliminary reports of damage is in the area of approximately US$100 billion. That is going to be our challenge going forward," Browne told Newsday earlier.
Trinidad and Tobago will provide a helicopter and crew for a week to help provide relief and aid for Barbuda, the Office of the Prime Minister (OPM) announced yesterday, indicating Government had communicated with the Browne administration.
"The Government has carefully considered the current difficult economic circumstances and despite these difficulties, because it recognises the responsibility of helping our Caricom neighbour in this time of disaster and need, it has agreed to provide this specific assistance," the OPM said in release.
Sources within the Office of Disaster Preparedness and Management revealed that, up until press time, issues of logistics and navigation were still being discussed among coordinators and crew members.
Jose is also expected to impact Anguilla, Montserrat, St Kitts and Nevis, Saba and St Eustatius which were placed on a tropical storm watch.

Beavers Fall To No. 5 USC In Four Games
Nov. 15, 2001
LOS ANGELES - No. 5 Southern California extended its home volleyball winning streak to 28 matches after knocking off Oregon State in four games Thursday night. Game scores were 30-23, 30-12, 25-30, and 30-18.
USC has now won nine straight over the Beavers, although the four-game match ended OSU's streak of four straight three-games losses to the Women of Troy in Los Angeles.
OSU (16-8, 9-6 Pacific-10) opened the match by hitting an impressive .351 in game one, but USC (19-3, 13-2) countered with an even better .429 mark in the opener to take a 1-0 lead. The Beavers faltered in game two, hitting just .036, and USC improved on its first game by hitting .545 in the second game.
The Beavers bounced back in game three, hitting .370, while limiting USC to just .125 efficiency to stay in the match, but the Women of Troy regrouped to take the match in four games.
'I couldn't be happier about the turnaround in game three. We couldn't have played a worse game two. That just shows how much tougher our team has gotten. That's so key,' said coach Nancy Somera. 'Games one and three were probably two of our most well-played games all year.'
Gina Schmidt led the Beavers with 12 kills and 13 digs to pick up her 16th double-double of the year, while Michele Solomon also had double-digit kills, hitting .400 with 10 kills. Lori Daedelow and Jessica Papell chipped in double-digits in the digs column, posting 12 and 10 respectively.
April Ross led the Women of Troy with 17 kills and was one of three USC players with 12 digs, while Keao Burdine and Jennifer Pahl had 15 kills apiece.
USC hit .313 with 69 kills for the match, while OSU finished with 54 kills and a .205 hitting percentage. USC also outblocked (10-3) and outdug (69-64) the Beavers.
'Our passing broke down in games two and four. USC has a very physical block, and they play exceptional defense behind that. They were scrambling around and played a little better out of system, and that was the difference,' Somera said.

The year of 2015 was met with some head-turning announcements like Horizon Zero Dawn, Kingdom Hearts III and the confirmation of a Season 2 of Life Is Strange. And with all of these announcements in 2015, we are met with promises of an incredible year of gaming for 2016. Not only have we cherished our roots with enticing reboots like Ratchet and Clank, but we've advanced toward the future of gaming with exceptional VR gameplay in games like Adrift. As we wave goodbye to 2015, we brace ourselves for the best year in gaming yet. These are my top 10 picks for the games I am looking forward to most in 2016.
10. No Man's SkyThis game has topped many anticipated for 2016 lists, I'm sure. It's a truly ambitious title with a huge universe to explore. There's so much you can do, like flying through space to travel to different worlds, fighting off enemy alien beings, and exploring to your heart's content. Right now, it's only exclusive to PC and PS4, but it's being pushed for VRVR and Xbox One because, well, everyone wants to get a taste. If I had to choose any one game on my list that would do well as a VR game, it would be this one. I'm not even that big of a fan of VR. You get me into a VR headset rolling through space in Adrift and I'll pass out. But if it's something like this where the world is immersive and alien, (and space travel isn't spinning endless into an abyss) then sign me up. Hello Games is shooting for a June 2016 release date, but there's always delays with a game as massive as this.

HA NOI (VNS) — A national task force to control and prevent domestic violence was launched in the capital city yesterday.
The task force will comprise experts from governmental agencies, the United Nations in Viet Nam and other relevant offices.
The establishment of the task force marked the end of a month-long campaign to end violence against women and girls that began mid-November.
The campaign was jointly organised by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs, the Women's Union, the Farmers' Union, the United Nations in Viet Nam and other development partners.
Several workshops, policy dialogues, exhibitions and parades were held in Ha Noi, HCM City, as well as Hai Duong and Ben Tre provinces. Several educational programmes on domestic violence prevention were carried out in different forms of the media including newspapers and television channels.
The task force will be headed by the Family Department under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism with technical support from the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) in Viet Nam.
Members of the task force will take part in meetings every six months from now until 2016 to share information and knowledge related to domestic violence prevention and control and formulate action plans.
They will also participate in training courses that will help them disseminate knowledge and skills to local populations towards reducing and ending the scourge of domestic violence in the country. — VNS

Saturday 22nd May 2010
Perth Concert Hall, 20:00
This event was part of the 2010 Festival Programme.
This event was part of the 2010 Festival Programme.
Blazing bagpipes, fiddle and accordions, electrically fused with funky rhythms and soul-gripping songs - Skerryvore are an award winning Scottish band creating a 'Trad-rock' fusion for the 21st Century. Skerryvore formed in 2004 on the Isle of Tiree in Scotland's Inner Hebrides. From traditional roots the band has developed both in size and sound to create a unique fusion of their traditional music and songs with the urban sounds of rock and funk. With their outstanding musicianship and the mesmerising voice of singer Alec Dalglish, Skerryvore have gripped audiences across the world from Chicago to Beijing and have been the highlight of many big festivals, home and abroad, including MagiaCeltica in Italy, Celtic Connections in Scotland, Celtic Crackers in the Netherlands – even a blistering performance at Scotland's Premier rock festival 'T in the Park' in July 2009.
The band had the honour of co-writing and performing the song Hold Your Breath for the BBC Alba television series entitled A'Gharaids. The first live performance of the song was played to a sell-out crowd at Celtic Connections in January 2009.
Skerryvore continue to generate a big following of fans of all ages worldwide. This has seen them achieve album sales of over 10, 000 whilst also being awarded album of the month on the BBC Radio Scotland's Celtic Connections International Broadcast. 2010 will also see debut performances for the band in Oman, Bahrain and Spain as well as return trips to Holland, Denmark and the USA.

Summerhall presents
Sun 10 - Sun 24 Aug 2014 | 10pm (60mins) | £12.50/£10.50 | 16+
Four performers explode their own experiences of being men in this bold theatrical debut from 'one of Scotland's most interesting young theatre makers' (The Scotsman)'. As the men recall the dark expanses of the Yorkshire moors, sing together full-throated and bold, recall poignant memorials of being a boy and dance optimistically to the howling tones of Kate Bush, the energy of this brave new performance is not to be missed.
McMaster's all male, award-winning interpretation of Emily Bronte's seminal text, re-visits the iconic landscapes and characters from Wuthering heights and places them alongside the stories of the male performers. This re-imagined classic considers how almost 200 years after the book was published, the lives and aspirations of men are now different. From the perspective of this all male company, this timely new production questions what should be left behind in history and what should be held onto as we move forward into the 21st century.
***NB: Tickets are available at both the Summerhall and Ed Fringe websites – if the performance you want to see appears sold out on one site, please check the other!***

The Herald ★★★★★
"The acting, the writing and the choreography of the piece are all beautifully prepared and crafted… a strikingly graceful and well-crafted show."
The Scotsman ★★★★
"a brave, moving exploration of what it means to be a man today"
Daily Record ★★★★
"…honest, inventive, beautifully choreographed and, even if unresolved, evidence of a bold and distinctive talent."
Guardian ★★★★
"moving, sensitive, engaging"
" the piece sparks with theatrical imagination in a way that suggests we may well be hearing the name of Peter McMaster again in the not-too-distant future"
Sunday Herald

"Due to unforeseen circumstances, Peter McMaster and company have decided to cancel performances on the 13th and 14th of August, of their show Wuthering Heights at Summerhall.
Wuthering Heights will resume on Saturday the 16th of August at its usual time of 10pm. They send their apologies to anyone who has purchased tickets for any of the shows before the 16th.
Any tickets purchased within this period will be refunded, and we hope that you are able to book another ticket for other available shows.
The amount of time they have decided to take off from performing is to allow a new performer to learn the show. The company are really excited to be starting again on Saturday, and would really appreciate your continued support.
Best wishes,
Summerhall and Peter McMaster"

"Where can you see tomorrow's work today? The answer is The Arches."
The Guardian
Through theatre, performance, visual art, dance and creative learning the Arches' artistic programme celebrates the brave and the new.
Producing and presenting risk-taking work from local and international artists and companies, the building has boasted performances over the past two years from Derevo, The TEAM and Taylor Mac, hosted the National Review of Live Art and New Territories festivals and seen blistering performances from boundary-pushing artists and companies such as John Moran, Adrian Howells, Ontroerend Goed and Quarantine as part of 2010's BEHAVIOUR festival, our annual celebration of the live experience.
The Arches is also Scotland's leading provider of support for emergent artists and performance practitioners, providing a year-long programme of opportunities including Artist in Residence programmes and our two annual awards, Platform 18: New Directions and the Brick Award, as well as showcasing raw work from homegrown talent such as Nic Green and Rob Drummond in Arches LIVE, our annual festival of brave new work.
Our dedicated Creative Learning programme offers even further-reaching opportunities for development across a broad range of social groups, with events ranging from urban music production course Tigerstyle and the newly launched Arches Community Choir, to mentoring schemes, professional development projects and off-site performance work with diverse social groups.
Words from Jackie Wylie, The Arches' Artistic Director, following the tragic death of Adrian Howells:
"All at The Arches are devastated by the loss of Adrian Howells this week. He was our Artist in Residence and The Arches was his creative home. But more than that, he was a dear friend and companion in life to many of us here.
So many would say that there truly was no one like him, who personified love, generosity and the deepest type of empathy and desire to understand those lucky enough to have met him. With great humour he was able to create an instant connection with anyone he encountered. He was able to translate this desire to nurture and connect into his performance practice and in doing so leaves behind not only an incredible and influential body of work but a multitude of audience members across the world who have in some way been transformed by these encounters.
He supported, encouraged and was at the heart of an entire community of artists in Glasgow who will miss him terribly."

We measure human rational sanity by one's consistent success in distinguishing clearly between fantasy and reality, each assigned to a well-partitioned, distinct mental space or domain. DSM 5, the authoritative diagnostic manual for the American Psychiatric Association, identifies this as the single factor in the diagnosis of delusion and psychosis in patients. We in modern civilization happily apply this distinction as a reasonable standard for rational judgement and mental health in all areas except in the realm of the sacred; some prominent cultural exceptions include Santa Claus, Jesus, the Qu'ran, the Western Wall, Krishna, Budh Gaya, et cetera. Each exception—Let us be clear—requires some indulgence in belief, i.e., the assertion of otherwise unwarranted inferences about reality in the face of inadequate or contrary evidence. The license for such indulgence appears to provide the very point or purpose of what one means by sacralization in human society, beyond mere signification. Indeed, when people call something "sacred" (and not merely "significant") they are tacitly sequestering that something as exempt from common standards of rationality, i.e., from the cognitive distinction between fantasy and reality.
In order to assess the possibility of "miracles," one must first define the term with reasonable precision. We use this term to describe two kinds of phenomena: First, we may call an unlikely event a "miracle," such as an uncanny phone call at just the right moment, a sports team pulling out a remarkable victory against all odds, or a coin toss that results in the coin landing on-edge instead of heads or tails. This particular use of the word "miracle" appears hyperbolic and, as such, does not constitute what we literally mean by the term; a miracle is not merely an extraordinary natural event. Nikola Tesla, moreover, was not a miracle-man, but a scientist and engineer who saw evermore deeply into the natural order. In truth, when we claim that a miracle has occurred, we mean that something naturally impossible has transpired; this is the second (the primary, true) use of the word. A "miracle," by common definition, is a supernatural intervention in the natural order.
Here we may choose to end the argument, claiming a quite reasonable conclusive victory. Miracles, by very definition, are natural, rational impossibilities. When someone claims a miracle has occurred, we respond by saying that "there must be some rational explanation." By doing this, we are implicitly recognizing as a society that miraculous claims are essentially irrational, i.e., a miraculous proposition contains one or more a priori contradictions with regard to its constituent terms. If I claim that my dog can run a mile in under 1 second, supposing those terms to carry their common meanings in language, we find a contradiction. Our common use of the term "dog" implies a number of natural constraints. All dogs possess physiological constraints in running speed, such that, even upon hearing that "a dog ran a full mile in under 1 second," one immediately classifies this claim as "miraculous" or as fantastical, cartoonish even, and not within the mental space of natural reality. Such claims require "belief," i.e., the suspension of reason and sufficient evidential support.
Many of late have found David Hume's claim that "whatever is conceivable is possible" to be somehow reasonable and correct. Hume wrote, "Whatever can be conceived by a clear and distinct idea necessarily implies the possibility of existence." (Treatise, p. 43) People have taken this to mean that whatever one may imagine in the mind, that also is possible in reality. Following Hume, Aviezer Tucker, Richard Carrier, et alii have sought to argue (via Bayes' Theorem) that all miraculous claims in history must achieve some possibility, however small, that they are factual. There appears, however, to be no proven relationship between the all-but-limitless extent of the whimsical human imagination and the present, concrete constraints of the natural world. In short, the natural order itself, alone must delineate the strictures and limitations of what we may rationally deem as possible, not our human penchant for fantasy. Only an evidence-driven construction of reality may qualify as rational and sane. Miraculous claims, as they by very definition lack empirical warrant, cannot qualify as knowledge. For, if a claim had empirical support, would we not classify such a proposal as indeed natural, not supernatural? The linguistic insight here, therefore, yielded by basic critical interrogation, appears to be that the category "supernatural" stands as a cipher or namespace for all claims arising out of "belief" in fantasy or myth, not out of empirical knowledge. As for the domain of reality, we reasonably conclude, all things are natural.

According to the report, 23% of diocesan lay employees have previously participated in another diocesan pension plan, and over one third of retiring diocesan employees have previously served in positions covered by pension plans other than the ones they are participating in at retirement. Such employees are vulnerable to "portability loss," or "the reduction in annual retirement income that will occur because an employee is covered by two or more pension plans during his or her working life." Those who suffer portability loss, says the report, lose an average of one quarter of their benefit. Hay/Huggins explored four possible options that dioceses should consider in their attempts to reduce portability losses for employees who move from one diocese to another during the course of their careers. These options include: 1) awarding credit for previous service in other dioceses 2) replacing traditional "defined benefit plans" with "defined contribution plans" 3) "indexing vested benefits" and 4) voluntarily participating in a national diocesan pension plan. The report cautions, however, that the advantages and disadvantages of these options must be considered very carefully because of possible drawbacks such as cost or adverse impact upon employees not vulnerable to portability loss. The Hay/Huggins report concludes with three recommendations for dioceses concerned about portability problems. First the report urges consideration of the ways in which each diocese can act individually to reduce portability losses by considering the options described above, extending coverage to all who meet the requirements, and providing information about other plans. Secondly, the report calls for discussion of a "national portability agreement" that would establish a method of transferring pension funds among dioceses. Finally, the report suggests that dioceses explore voluntary participation in a national pension plan.

One of the top questions we have as parents is - should my child be in a booster seat?
Did you know...Car accidents are the leading cause of death for all children. Children over four years old are more likely to be injured and killed in an Atlanta car accident than younger children. Why?
Younger children are typically secured properly in vehicles. When older children are buckled up, they are often put in adult seat belts. This can be especially dangerous considering these little bodies don't fit correctly in seat belts made for large adults. In fact, the position of an adult seat belt can cause serious car crash injuries.
Booster seats save lives and reduce injuriesUsing a booster seat reduces the risk of a Georgia car crash injury and death to children age seven and under by nearly 60 percent. Booster seats dramatically reduce the risk of injury to the abdomen and spine by elevating the child so the lap and shoulder belt of the adult seat belt fit the right way.
Currently, children five and under are required to be in a child safety seat or booster seat in Georgia. But, this week, Governor Nathan Deal has signed a bill which will require nearly all children ages seven and under to sit in booster seats while riding in a car in Georgia. The law will not apply to children who are more than four feet, nine inches tall.
The new law goes into effect on July 1, 2011.
For more information about child safety, read our article: "Atlanta Car Crash Lawyer: When Is It Safe For Children To Sit In The Passenger Seat?"

Memo to Chief Executive Officer
Pamela Lindsey
April 23, 2012
Debra Williams
To: John Smith, Chief Executive Officer
From: Pamela Lindsey RN
Date: 4/23/2012
Subject: Organizational structure of Indigo Manor
Mr. Smith, below please find a basic outline of the organizational structure and function at Indigo Manor. I hope this helps you to familiarize yourself with the key players' managers and supervisors in each department responsible for the general work flow of this organization. Indigo Manor operates using an open system style. The nature of our business in health care and the continual changes in the case mix and reimbursement of our patient population in the short term rehabilitation unit is best suited to this style.
We have a formal structure in place within this organization. There is a diagramed chain of command for policy development and executive decision making. All employees have been in-serviced upon hire of the proper chain of command for communication within each individual department. Our structure also contains several informal groups which have developed over time and have become effective components of our quality assurance teams, wound care teams, restraint reduction team, and weight reduction and weight loss prevention team to name a few.
We operate within a vertical hierarchy and have four layers of management in place below the Chief Operating Officer. We have an Executive Director, below that a nursing administrator, a financial administrator and an environmental and building and grounds administrator. There is a senior manager under each administrator and unit level managers in each department. The unit managers deal directly with the floor staff and are responsible for the day to day operations in their department. Unit managers have been given the authority to make emergency decisions regarding staff and situations of immediate danger or patient jeopardy. The manager must then report the situation...

Taking Your Garment Sewing To The Next Level: Learn To Draft A Sloper
Have you ever drafted your very own sloper? I have done very simple drafting but It is mind blowing when you have your own sloper custom made for your measurements. I started out drafting my own sloper for a skirt. I use it on almost all my skirt making projects now as a basis for a great fitting skirt pattern.
A sloper is like a template that you can use in your garment sewing and get a custom, made to order fit. Sloper is the term most often used in home garment sewing, block is the term used in manufacturing garment sewing. It is a basic design but it fits your body. You can then use this sloper to make different design changes, but the fit will stay the same.
I am in the process of making a pant sloper, so that I can just whip it out any time I want a pair of pants made. All I will need to do is change any design changes, like length, darts etc. Slopers can make your garment sewing journey incredibly easier, faster and with better fit.
We have a new course we're offering, taught be Amber Eden Stitch Magazine's Editor. She will guide you through the 8 week long course of making your own sloper.
I can't rave enough about having your own sloper. Is this something you are interested in? I would love to know on the blog!

Malicious worms, hackers, and dire scenarios of cyberattack are giving cybersecurity more attention, but is it getting more action? It is at Microsoft Corp., says executive Craig Mundie, describing the progress of the software giant's year-old Trustworthy Computing initiative.
Systems smart enough to monitor, update, and repair themselves will help reassure people who continue to complain that technology is unreliable, says Mundie, Microsoft's chief technical officer of advanced strategies and policy. He spoke at a community program at Microsoft's campus here Wednesday.
Security functions are part of every Microsoft project now, he says. Efforts range from developing systems that automatically plug holes to new ways to identify remote systems you encounter online.
Seeking Reassurance
It's part of an emerging industry-wide focus on security that mirrors national security concerns. But for the technology industry, it's also a preemptive effort to reassure customers and avoid having security measures imposed by law, Mundie says.
People's fear of flaws could slow their enthusiasm for adopting technology, Mundie says. And the government might try to impose policy standards that could slow technology development. "We're starting to see interest in regulating the computer industry as more and more of society is relying on this equipment," Mundie says.
Concerns may heighten as we go online with more diverse devices, from handhelds to phones to custom boxes, Mundie adds. Microsoft expects those capabilities to boost productivity even more than PCs already have, he says.
But, he adds, "the concern that has emerged is, will all this be caught up short simply because people don't trust the computer system?"
Heightened Alert
Clearly, the world is more focused on cybersecurity than more than a year ago, when Microsoft internally conceived its Trustworth Computing initiative. Then came terrorist attacks and the widespread Nimda worm.
Since Microsoft announced its Trustworthy Computing concept, it has hosted a security conference and even declared a one-month moratorium on software development. Programmers instead used the time to swat bugs and close holes.
Some security efforts began three years ago, when Microsoft applied for Common Criteria for Information Technology Security Evaluation for Windows 2000, a federal standard. The shrink-wrapped retail version earned the certification--not a specialized version--so anyone can benefit from its verified security, he added.
Today, security issues claim as much as 40 percent of Microsoft's spending in some development projects, Mundie said. During its recent Windows security assessment, Microsoft "spent about $100 million on the analysis of both shipped versions and what we could do in new design choices for both the .Net server process and subsequent implementations," notably Longhorn, the Windows update not due out for several years.
"We recognized that to address this we had to do it pervasively, and that requires a culture change," Mundie said. For example, loading applications with features is a common competitive tactic, but also results in lots of features that are infrequently used, and they are often ripe for security holes, he said.
Pervasive Priority
The crux of the Trustworthy Computing effort is a memo by Microsoft Chair Bill Gates pointing out that it doesn't matter how good a product is, if people don't trust Microsoft and trust its work, the product won't succeed. Consequently, security issues are considered in all projects.
For example, Microsoft is working toward self-monitoring systems with features such as Windows Update, which automatically checks for critical updates, Mundie says.
Service Pack 1 for Windows XP, released in September, changes defaults for several functions to the more secure alternative. For example, if you don't have encryption activated on a wireless link, the OS won't automatically install the link and connect you. Also, the firewall configuration default is changed to on.
The Service Pack also plugged a number of security holes, including one serious flaw that Microsoft had not previously acknowledged. Mundie didn't mention it, but Microsoft also recently provided a separate fix for that hole after some customers reported problems installing SP1.
As another security measure, Microsoft beefed up the parental controls in MSN 8, the recently-released client for its online service.
More Doors Ahead
Security is a priority in future products, Mundie says.
"We view this as a long journey," he says. "The stage right now is remediation, fixing sins of the past, and making design changes for future."
Microsoft continues to develop its digital rights management technology, already built into Media Player and Reader to protect copyrighted material. Another major effort, called Palladium, is a hardware-software security measure about which Microsoft has revealed little publicly.
Palladium is designed to help devices that communicate with each other clearly identify their origin, including the software they're running and person using them, to enable greater trust and smoother information exchange, Mundie says. It is intended to extend to general devices the kind of security often built into specialized machines.
A year ago, Microsoft observed a dichotomy of goals regarding security, Mundie says. People wanted privacy online, and saw anonymity as ensuring it; while technical professionals striving for security saw anonymity as the enemy of security.
But today, "security is about making computers resilient to attack," he says. "As the bad guys get smarter and the tools they use get better, we have to further develop our defenses."

Third time the charm for copyright reform?
November 1, 2011 Adam Gorley Finance and Accounting, Sales, Marketing and Operations
The last copyright amendments in Canada happened in 1997, long, long before copyright piracy entered the mainstream. Now, the Conservative government will make its third attempt to update the law. Will this be their lucky time? The current bill is essentially the same as the previous effort, Bill C-32, which was thwarted after its second reading when the government fell earlier this year on a non-confidence motion. The newly elected government promised to reintroduce the amendments and pass them in short order, and here we are.

It was during the shooting of a new film by Ashutosh Gowarikar that this incident took place. According to reports there was a fight sequence being shot for the film 'Kheleinge Jee Jaan se', which stars Actress Deepika Padukone.
As the shots were being readied she had her hair tied. Then the shooting started and somewhere midway the director happened to see a tattoo on Deepika's left shoulder blade. Immediately the cameras were stopped from rolling further and the director asked Deepika to open her hair so that the tattoo would be hidden.
The tattoo was the last remembrance of the Ranbir- Deepika relationship which has gone sour. The tattoo has a RK written with some motif on it. But sadly enough the actress couldn't say anything to her director and quietly did as she was told to do.
Coming to the director, it is reported that Ashutosh is a very strict one as far as discipline and work are concerned. He does not hesitate to say no when he thinks he has to. So, according to insiders no one can put his or her foot down and command unreasonable things while working under his banner.
So all said and done, it is okay if the rules are followed during the making of a film otherwise how can a film of the magnitude of Jodha Akbar be made ?

The Candle Pouring Experience
Come on in!
At Wax Poetic Candle Bar we are ready whenever you are. No need to call ahead of time, unless you are a party of 5 or more, otherwise just come on in. It really is that easy.
Follow your nose.
As you walk through our doors, relax and let your nose guide you through the process. Our suggestion is to start at the Fragrance Bar. There you are able to smell all of our fragrances available. Go ahead, pick up any or all of our single scent candles and jot down the ones you enjoy on your fragrance sheet. If your nose is happily content with any of our single fragrance candles, they are available for purchase.
If you are looking to blend certain smells together your nose enjoyed while at the Fragrance Bar, then off to the Candle Bar you go with your fragrance sheet in hand. At the Candle Bar, a Wax Poetic employee will help guide you in picking some of your favorite scents you found at the Fragrance Bar to blend.
Pour your candle.
The custom hand-poured candle process takes about a half hour from the time you walk into Wax Poetic Candle Bar until you finish pouring your custom candle at the Candle Bar. From here, you can either shop around at some of our awesome neighboring businesses, grab a bite to eat or sip on a drink or two. After 90 minutes your custom candle(s) are ready to take home. You may choose to come back and pick up your custom candle another day.
If you want to take your candles home on the same day, we kindly ask that you plan to arrive at Wax Poetic Candle Bar at least two hours before we close. We would hate for you to walk out of our doors empty handed.
Create a custom doodle.
Your custom hand-poured candle is now setting, time to seal it with a… doodle or kiss, but we aren't providing the lipstick. At Wax Poetic Candle Bar we truly like to create a personable experience for you and your candle. You will be provided with a preprinted label and pen to doodle whatever your heart desires.
Want to sign it? Go for it. Want to create a custom name for the scent you created? You can do that too. Want to draw a picture? Us too! Literally, you can do whatever you want to add that last little personal touch to your new candle.

But with some fiddling around I figured out how to fix it.
Trying to figure out how to afix the bib and waistband took a great deal of time. I finally gave up on trying to understand the instructions and just did my own thing, and It turned out alright, if I do say so myself!
I sewed up my first sure fit 'dress' too. Only that didn't go so well :(
As you can see, I have fit issues with the blouse length, neck, and armholes and the skirt at the hips. I know once I get this figured out it's going to be a huge asset for me, but I still have a LOT of work to do to figure it out.
And, last but not least, I started on the brown dot dress. I'm so excited to be working on this for real!
I was trying to figure out today why everything was taking me so long. Then I realized, before, all the major sewing I did was for costumes. So if wastebands didn't fit right, or zippers didn't match up exactly, I didn't care. But now -- Now I spend a hour pinning a lining just to make sure it all lines up correctly. But, that's ok right?
P.S. Today I learned the art of understiching - yay!
And, last but not least... Friday I swung by the fabric store near work (the good one) to pick up a few things, and they were having an AMAZING clearance sale. I do mean amazing - some of the fabrics I picked up were under $1/yard and all were less then $3.
First was this pinkish-purpleish chiffon - I figured I could make a blouse out of it - I need more colorful blouses and with spring/summer coming up, the lighter the better!
doesn't hat make you crave some cottan candy?
I also picked up a more conservative fabric - also intending to make a shirt of. I love a floral that gives interest without being too busy.
Then I found an amazing poly blend knit. I had recently found a sweatshirt pattern that I loved, but I didn't want to do it in your standard boring sweatshirt material - I think this is going to be perfect.
But when you hold it up you find this:
I'll be on the lookout for the right lining and I know this is going to shine.
I also found what they called "Sportswear Twill" I'm not really sure what I'm going to do with it as it's got a heavy almost denim feel to it, but I loved the print.
And it was only 70 cents a yard. I probably should have just brought home the whole thing, but I took five yards instead.
Picked up some navy water resistant fabric as well - who knows, I might be able to coax a jacket out of it.
Last, but not least, I stumbled across this...
(It's also the one fabric that caught my husband's eye, of everything I brought home.) Here's the best part... It's swimsuit material!! I've had this idea for a vintage inspired 'skirted' swimsuit in my head and this fit into perfectly. I have no idea how to pull it off (maybe after I get my sure fit...fitted) but, I will - someday!
Tomorrow the goal is to get the shorts hemmed and the brown dress ready to hem (the bodice - the 'hard part' is done), and maybe get my blue check dress cut out. But we'll see.

As 2015 approaches, I'm making my list of projects for the coming year, and when I plan to have them finished. Some are set in stone (Publishers kind of like to know when they're getting stuff… ;)…), but I decided to try something a little different, and have my readers weigh in on what you want to see, in 2015. So, from my upcoming self-publishing ventures, I've created a little poll, where you can vote for the series/books you most want to see released before the end of 2015. Be sure to cast your vote! 🙂

"Dangerous Bait" – Excerpt from DEAD MEN… (Section Psi)
Calliope McKinney has the dubious honor of being a member of one of Mars' famous First Families, and Psi. But when her position as a member of a prestigious family places Calli in the middle of a fight for the survival of all Psis on Mars, she'll have to decide where her loyalties lay, and whom to trust, because if she's not very careful, she could end up dead.
"Dangerous Bait" – Excerpt from DEAD MEN… (Section Psi, Book 4) –
"What are you doing, Calli?" Cade murmured the words into the headset, aware she could hear him, but that she couldn't respond while the mark was with her.
"Sounds to me like she's got his number."
Cade turned toward MCAR Homicide Detective Stefan Theonides, seated next to him in the surveillance flier, and scowled. None of these people got Calli – not like he did. Even the people she worked with; hell, even her own brother, from what he saw of Lance McKinney, didn't get Calli like Cade did. He knew what drove her, how isolated she felt out here in the real world. It wasn't that she couldn't relate, either. She tried harder to be noticed than anyone he ever met. Like now.
Cade swore beneath his breath, wishing he knew more about Martian culture, so he could properly profile how dangerous this creep was. The anxiety that threaded through Calli's voice told him he probably wouldn't like the answer.
He heard Calli's sharp intake of air, and a noise like some kind of weapon being released, and tensed.
"Talk to me, McKinney," he ordered in an undertone. They'd been unable to set up visuals, in case the perp was watching the park beforehand, and now that lack could put Calli's life in danger.
"What do you need a shankblade for?" Calli's voice came through clear, but Cade frowned at the unfamiliar reference. He glanced at the man beside him as Theonides swore beneath his breath.
"A shankblade is a weapon crafted up on Satan's Tit. It's a titatone blade, housed in something innocuous-looking, and undetectable to contraband scanners. Usually, the blades are coated in nuerotoxins."
Cade's blood froze.
"Calli, get the hell out of there!"
"I think you know," came the cold voice of their mark, closer than it shoud have been to the microphone. Hell, it sounded like the asshole was breathing in her ear.
"What do you want?" Calli's snapped response was followed by a rustle of movement that Cade hoped like hell was her moving out of range.
"Why, the Muse, my dear. She will make such an interesting addition to my…collection."
That tore it! Cade was on his feet, and across the surveillance flier's bay before he heard another word. He'd just reached the door when a scream reverberated through the vehicle that sent terror slicing through his soul.
Look for the first book of Section Psi, ILLEGAL PURSUIT, coming from Esther Mitchell and Desert Breeze Publishing, soon!
"Confrontation" – Excerpt from TAMIA (Underground)
Marine Captain Tamia Kuan is no stranger to war. Raised in war-torn Tibet, and then turned loose with the street gangs of Old San Francisco, Tamia is living proof that no matter the crisis, the strong will survive. On the streets, she learned to bury her heart to survive, and, but the end of the world war known as the Divide, that survival depended on no longer having a heart at all. But one man's doubt in her innocence will turn the tables on her, and force her to free her heart. For, in the midst of one of the deadliest counterespionage missions of her life, the one thing that saves her life could be love.
"Confrontation" – Excerpted from TAMIA (Underground, Book 1)
The sound of voices, from Communications, reached him. The first shivered along his awareness, and he knew instantly that was Tamia. The other was familiar, and male, but Rick couldn't place it. His brow furrowed as he wondered what happened; Rick strode across the command center to the open door of Comms, and froze as the green-eyed monster reared its ugly head.
Tamia sat at the console, her head bent forward so that her hair fell across her face. Behind her stood Matt Clipper, a grin on his face that Rick wanted to pound out of him as the darker man's hands massaged her exposed neck and shoulders, wringing a small groan from the woman.
"God, that's good." Tamia's voice was tinged with laughter. "Okay, so I stand corrected. You do have God's hands."
A shaft of pure rage avalanched through Rick at sight and words combined. Dammit, if he couldn't touch her, he sure as Hell didn't want anyone else pawing her, either! His eyes narrowed. Matt and Tamia were both products of the streets; they probably had more in common than he and Tamia did. Just how close were these two, anyway?
"I keep tellin' ya, Chinagirl. Black is be—" Matt stopped as his gaze flicked over, and met Rick's scowl. Rick watched with dark humor as the other man's eyes widened, just before his hands fell away from Tamia and he muttered, "Oh, shit."
"Why'd you stop?" Tamia asked from behind the curtain of her hair, then straightened to look around. "What's the mat—? Rick!"
Matt swallowed hard and took a step away. His eyes moved nervously to the outside door of Comms. "I'm outta here. See ya later, Blade."
With that, he beat a hasty exit, Rick's glare following him into the corridor. As soon as Matt was gone, Rick turned his frustrated rage on Tamia.
"What the hell was going on in here?"
"Not that it's any of your business." Her posture was instantly defensive. He knew he took the wrong tack with her, but damn it all, he was too pissed to care. And he sure as hell couldn't tell her why he was pissed. Especially not with that red fire that flashed in her eyes. "Matt just stopped in to drop off his mission notes. He was helping me work the kinks out of my neck and shoulders."
"Damn it, Tamia!" He stalked over to her, yanking her seat around as he bent over her and let her see the frustration that burned in him. The flicker of fear in her eyes lasted only for a second, but it was enough to turn his roar of frustration into a hot accusation. "What is it with you? Do you get some kind of rise out of tormenting people, or something?"
She jerked away in clear anger as she rose to her feet and grabbed up a file. She ignored him as she headed for the Command Center. At the door, she finally stopped to look back at him. "I don't recall doing anything of the kind. Just who am I supposedly torturing, anyway?"
"Me," he growled. He caught her just inside the doorway as he dropped his head to cover her lips in a punishing kiss. She gasped against his mouth, and the sound of paper hitting the concrete floor filtered through his consciousness, only to be swept away by a raging flood of hunger as he drank in her sweet response.

"Lost Magic" — Excerpt from THE DOLPHIN'S LUCK (Icarian Chronicles: The Carnelian Amulet)
This is a brief excerpt, drawn from an alternate timeline series I'm working on. When an archeologist from our world stumbles across an artifact in the Siberian steppes, he has no idea what he's actually stumbled upon, until he finds himself in a world both alien and vaguely familiar. To get back to his own world, he'll have to find the key to using the amulet he found. The only question is: If he finds a way back, will he even want to go?
"Lost Magic" – Excerpt from THE DOLPHIN'S LUCK (Icarian Chronicles: The Carnelian Amulet, Book 1) —
Brandon sighed. He didn't want to open this can of worms – didn't every TV show dealing with space-time continuum issues say messing with the world you landed in only ever ended badly? – but he couldn't very well ignore her question.
"The world I come from has all but forgotten magic, Sasha. It's replaced wonder and awe with science and logic."
Her brow furrowed. "You are mocking me."
How he wished it was that simple. "Not a bit."
"So, in this world where no magic exists, there is no war?"
He tensed, aware she wasn't going to like the answer to that question. Her world was built on the black-and-white concept that if magic ceased to be, so would all the fighting, and all the terrible things that happened in the course of war. Eyes closed, he shook his head. "Quite the opposite. War, fighting, and killing are practically a way of life, some places in my world. Most places have crime – people who hurt and kill others for stupid reasons, and even for no reason at all. To be honest, I think in losing magic, we lost the little bit of our souls that kept us honest."
"Imperial Blood" – Excerpt from THE EAGLE'S MISTRESS (Icarian Chronicles)
Once upon a time, I started a historical series based around an old legend I found hidden in the stacks of the AFB library. It was a medieval legend of a female pirate, and while it was little more than a footnote in a book on Scandinavian and Russian history, it fascinated me, and I set out to write the account of a female pirate in 12th Century Europe.
Only, I was never really happy with how it came out. I adored the character, but she just didn't fit her era right, and the politics of the time period made some of the aspects of her story border on the unbelievable. I just was never happy enough with it to really think about publishing it as more than a lark.
And then came the most wonderful idea… I realized it didn't have to be history as we know it. I had other options! And, in early 2002, I started redrafting Sasha's story into an Alternate History/Speculative Fiction series… And from the characters and background in her story grew an entire series. This series considers the possibility that Christianity never took hold, and that magic and mysticism prevailed. The continental shift happened differently, leading to a completely different allocation of resources and civilizations, and eventually to a power struggle within the ruling family/caste of the world, between the religious/spiritual and the pragmatic, warrior caste.
And thus was born the Icarian Chronicles, into which I would eventually introduce someone strange to their world, whose understanding of history I will proceed to totally warp. :). But, for now, the series starts several years before Sasha's birth, with her parents.
"Imperial Blood" – Excerpt from THE EAGLE'S MISTRESS
(Icarian Chronicles, Book 1) –
Nira returned to her teacher's side, tugging the shawl up around the old woman's frail shoulders to ward off the evening chill. With a fond smile, she settled on the low stool beside Malisina's chair.
"Tell me what you know of him, Mala," she plied eagerly, curious to know everything about the man who came to disturb their peaceful home. "What kind of man is the Emperor?"
"Emperor, bah!" The older woman fluttered a scoffing hand through the air. "That pup is no more Emperor than I am the Goddess Efri!"
Nira's eyes widened. This was the first she ever heard gentle Malisina speak ill of the new Emperor. "Have a care, Mala! He may mean to cause us harm."
This brought a chuckle from Malisina, even as one trembling hand reached out to stroke her face lovingly. "Ah, my sweet child, not you. You have the power to show yon fledgling Eagle the error of his ways. Besides, I mean him no harm. I only tell them as I see them, and he is not yet an Emperor, and nor shall he be fully so, as long as our own sweet Mistress Eleindra draws breath. I fear those two shall be the death of us all, child, if one is not soon tamed."
Nira drew back, puzzled. Malisina had a tendency to ramble, of late. Some whispered that she grew feeble-minded, but Nira wondered. Malisina was gifted with the Future Sight of a Truth-Sayer. Could her words be prophecy, not mad ramblings? A cold chill brushed Nira's skin.
"What do you know of him, Mala?" She pleaded, clutching her guardian's hand.
"Nothing to cause such fear, sweet child," Malisina assured her gently, her wise old eyes sparkling. That look, alone, told Nira her teacher was far from mad.
"Then what?"
"Impatience, child," Malisina scolded her, a familiar rebuke. Then, a soft smile turned up the woman's lips. "Very well, I will tell you what I know. Yon Eagle has been groomed for this day since he was in leading straps. He was harnessed for war before he sat upon his first horse, or flew his first war bird. And yet, there is a sadness to him that speaks of a man who wishes for peace. You must remember this, child, or all that would come after you is lost."
The warning furrowed Nira's brow, but she nodded and scooted nearer. What Mala meant, she had no idea, but she would remember. Indeed, how could she ever forget these words?
"Eleindra once told me that her brother drew the blood of war from his own wrists. Some say there are scars there – marks of a boy who does not yet understand the man his father's death created. And yet, he is strong, with great courage, and even greater arrogance. I believe they breed such qualities into all of Imperial blood, myself."

I have been trying to post in a thread and it will not let me.
The thread was about magnesium bars. A poster named Rick was asking if anybody might know about non Chinese made fire-steels. I think I may know of one (but you never know these days)
I tried to answer but it would not let me. I had a link in my original try and thought maybe thats the problem, so I tried again with no link and I was still unable to post.
Hopefully this goes through.
