Decreasing your carbon footprint: Beyond all-or-nothing solutions
By Sagan MorrowWhen we talk about things like carbon footprint and reducing our impact on the environment in terms of changing our food sources, we usually talk about the BIG changes that we can make. Specifically, going meatless and adopting a vegetarian or vegan diet.
The problem with this, as with any lifestyle or behavioural change, is that going too big can actually be detrimental. If we ask or tell people to "go meatless," and they are big meat-eaters, it can push them in the completely opposite direction because the task seems too insurmountable or drastic.
Here's the thing: we tend to be pretty passionate about food and our personal food decisions, and it's something we want to share with other people. But if we try to push our particular food values and beliefs onto someone else who doesn't share those beliefs, that person is probably just going to be pushed further in the opposite direction than we want them to go in.
And this brings me back to the carbon footprint and meat issue. It's all fine and good to note that livestock is a major factor with regards to climate change, but how can we take this information and actually do something about it? How can we take action to decrease our carbon footprint without feeling as though we're depriving ourselves of something we love?
There are two really excellent options to go with for people who just don't feel satisfied without some kind of meat in their meal (and I know a whole lot of people who feel this way, which is okay!):
- Eat smaller portions.
- Choose free-range, organic, and local meat.
For #1, eat smaller portions, you can up the intake of vegetables and decrease your meat portion; or if you are eating your meat in a salad or on a pizza, you can often cut the amount down by a third or a half without even noticing.
For #2, choose free-range, organic, and local meat, the best thing you can do is find a local farmer (or a farmers' market, or a local grocery store supporting small farmers) who produces meat in an ethical, natural way and you'll be reducing your carbon footprint without even reducing your beloved meat intake.
How do you feel about conventional vs. naturally grown meat? What are some of the biggest challenges you face with decreasing your carbon footprint?

Jakarta (Greeners) – Waste issues cannot be tackled from ecological approach and pollution but also economic approach as one of the models following circular economy has become a solution for waste issues in Europe.
Joan Marc Simon, Director of Zero Waste Europe, said that recycling industry can serve as the anchor in waste management issue.
Through circular economy, the industry applies used items and support government in tackling pollution, especially plastics.
"Waste management is easy to measure. If recycling becomes main attraction then the activities will increase leading to reduce land fills," said Simon in a discussion dubbed Break Free From Plastic, in Jakarta, on Thursday (27/7).

As a result, incinerator and waste to energy power plant development in seven cities in Indonesia would not be able to solve waste issues.
Arifsyah Nasution, marine campaigner of Greenpeace Indonesia, 70 percent of waste in Indonesia, especially in big cities such as Jakarta, was dominated with organic waste which consume lots of fuels.
"This kinds of waste should be turned into compost. It serves as a good model if organic waste turn to compost than burn them," said Arifsyah.

Furthermore, company's obligation to manage waste under Extended Producer Responsibility or EPR needed to be applied.
The concept stipulates producers to manage their products with recycle materials to withdraw their plastic packaging.
"All producers, might it be electronics, packaging, or any products, resulted to toxic waste and damaging environment must run this EPR," said Von Hernandez, coordinator of Break Free From Plastic.

Am I Humble and Modest?
One of the most common discussions that are taking place in the public square today concerns socialism. On the surface, socialism sounds like—in large part—a fulfillment of Catholic social teachings, which is a good thing. To a great extent, we tend to think of socialism in terms of equality among peoples of a society without fully understanding its implications and unintended consequences.
Socialism, by simple definition, is a political and social policy for the equal sharing of goods within a society as deemed appropriate by a governing body over that society. These goods include physical and intellectual properties, resources and wealth. The management of these goods becomes the responsibility of the government and requires obedience of the populous to the secular laws that support socialism. It should be noted that obedience to the secular laws that are needed to implement socialism may—at times—supersede and be contrary the laws of God.
There are issues that arise when one tries to reconcile the teachings of the Church in support of socialism. George. M Searle, C.S.P. writes:
"…the fundamental idea of Socialism is absolutely erroneous, and contradictory to Catholic teaching. And that idea is, that morality is a matter entirely in the jurisdiction of mankind, instead of being subject to the law of God that it rests on and can be determined by popular vote." [Why the Catholic Church Cannot Accept Socialism, https://www.catholicculture.org/culture/library/view.cfm?recnum=2942]
The foundation of our Catholic faith is based upon the revelations given to us by Jesus Christ and His Apostles. By theology—just as theorems are derived from axioms and preceding theorems in mathematics—the Church expands her teachings and understandings from revelations and preceding teachings through a process generically called jurisprudence.
In this instance and based upon the teachings of the Church, it is the responsibility of each individual to give (i.e., time, talent and treasure) to the poor and impoverished in order to fulfill God's mandates concerning acts of charity. These responsibilities cannot simply be transferred from an individual to the state. This is one of the underlying reasons why Pope Leo XIII, in Rerum novarum, supports private property rights. Specifically, an individual—by his own free will—can give to the poor and impoverished from his own acquired goods. It is important to realize that when we give alms and tithes from our own goods it is not because God needs them; we need to give to help us release ourselves from materialism that can negatively impact our higher calling of spirituality. Moreover, alms and tithes help us fulfill our responsibility to help our fellow man, and to fulfill the 5th precept of the Catholic Church.
A fundamental question is; how is someone to acquire goods? The answer is by working within the framework of a financial economy that exists to serve the workers. The workers are not there to serve the economy as is the case under socialism. The concept of working within a financial economy is addressed by a Catholic Social teaching is called "The Dignity of Work and the Rights of Workers" (http://www.usccb.org/beliefs-and-teachings/what-we-believe/catholic-social-teaching/the-dignity-of-work-and-the-rights-of-workers.cfm). The underlying point is that there is dignity in work. Associatively, the Catechism states:
CCC 2428 In work, the person exercises and fulfills in part the potential inscribed in his nature. The primordial value of labor stems from man himself, its author and its beneficiary. Work is for man, not man for work. Everyone should be able to draw from work the means of providing for his life and that of his family, and of serving the human community.
The concept of work is scripturally based as well. Specifically—we read in Genesis 2:15—after God had created Adam, but before the fall—in Hebrew "abad shamar." Abad means "to work or serve" and Shamar means "to guard or protect." In short, God directs Adam to work in order to maintain (e.g., tilling) the Garden of Eden and to protect it.
Socialism takes away the dignity of the worker because it takes away the means of providing for one's own life, one's own family and personal service to the community. Associatively, socialism takes away freedom because it breeds dependence upon the government to provide goods on a commonly assumed even distribution rather than on individual need.
With respect to socialism, Pope Leo XIII wrote:
"Hence, it is clear that the main tenet of socialism, community of goods, must be utterly rejected, since it only injures those whom it would seem meant to benefit, is directly contrary to the natural rights of mankind, and would introduce confusion and disorder into the commonwealth. The first and most fundamental principle, therefore, if one would undertake to alleviate the condition of the masses, must be the inviolability of private property." (Rerum novarum, # 15, 1891)
Please keep in mind that the Catholic Church does not condemn socialism as it exists in some religious communities. This is the case because "everyone" in those communities, by their own free-will, has chosen to live within a socialistic environment. In short, socialism was not forced upon them.
The contrasting economic system to socialism is capitalism. However, it is important to keep in mind that the Church does reject unrestricted capitalism. Unrestricted capitalism can result in amoral behavior. Therefore, the role of the government—with respect to capitalism—is to constrain amoral behavior and ensure equal opportunity to all participates without unduly limiting their free-will in activities associated with the acquisition of goods; support of one's self, family and community; and the performance of charitable acts.
Lastly, the Church does support continuous charitable giving to the chronically indigent and those that clearly cannot work and rely—out of necessity—upon assistance. There may also be too large of a need (i.e., hurricane relief) for any one group other than the government—with its large resources—to give assistance.
In summation and in general, socialism is contrary to Catholic teachings and should be rejected. This rejection is necessary for man to fulfill his obligations concerning his acts of charity. Moreover, charitable actions can only be performed if man has the goods to perform such acts which he acquires through his work.

NVIDIA-hardware partner and embedded computing supplier Connect Tech acquired by HEICO
NewsAugust 31, 2020
GUELPH, Ontario, Canada. HEICO Corp. acquired Connect Tech, a producer of embedded computing and NVIDIA GPU solutions for military applications such as unmanned systems, communications, ISR (intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance), and more various form factors such as COM Express and PC104. As a subsidiary of HEICO Corporation, Connect Tech will continue to serve its global customer base.
Connect Tech and its specialization in NVIDIA-based solutions has fueled the company's growth over the last few years, and company officials say that joining HEICO's vast group of technology companies should continue that success. "Connect Tech has continued on a significant growth path over the past few years, primarily due to our ability to provide extremely fast turn-around time of custom solutions and creating standard product lines servicing cutting-edge technologies," says David Worthen, president and founder of Connect Tech. "Having the financial backing of HEICO, with annual revenues of over $2 billion, gives us the ability to continue investing in capital equipment that will help us scale at a trajectory faster than we could accomplish independently — especially in the defense and aerospace markets."
Regarding defense and aerospace, Worthen added that HEICO being an American-based company helps broaden Connect Tech's reach in the U.S. defense market. "Being a part of an American company with over 60 years of aerospace and defense experience provides visibility into programs that Connect Tech, as a Canadian company, would not necessarily be invited to participate in," he says. "HEICO and its various subsidiaries have an in-depth knowledge of the technological goals and challenges within the defense sector. Connect Tech has the experience of bringing both standard and customized embedded computing solutions to market - this partnership will allow us to anticipate the market's needs and deliver in-demand solutions to aerospace and defense companies."
From an outward facing standpoint, not much will change for Connect Tech's customers and partners.
"Not only will I remain President of Connect Tech, but our entire team will stay intact," Worthen notes. "Our customer base will not see any changes in our day-to day operations, and we will continue to offer the level of quality engineering customers have come to depend on. Connect Tech's acquisition by HEICO is an ideal scenario – it allows us to continue doing what we do best, while leveraging the resources and access of our parent organization."
Financial details of the acquisition were not disclosed.
Connect Tech Inc. is NVIDIA's largest global embedded hardware partner offering a wide array of NVIDIA Jetson solutions, as well as embedded solutions for a variety of industry standards including COM Express, SMARC, and more. With more than 35 years of embedded computing experience, the company's technology offering includes complete embedded systems, carrier boards, thermal solutions, and more.
For more information visit www.connecttech.com.
HEICO Corporation is engaged primarily in the design, production, servicing and distribution of products and services to certain niche segments of the aviation, defense, space, medical, telecommunications and electronics industries through its Hollywood, Florida-based Flight Support Group and its Miami, Florida-based Electronic Technologies Group. HEICO's customers include a majority of the world's airlines and overhaul shops, as well as numerous defense and space contractors and military agencies worldwide, in addition to medical, telecommunications and electronics equipment manufacturers.

Stone Knives and Bear Skins
Through Andrew Dalke's blog, I came across an online museum dedicated to early molecular graphics. One section is amazing. It describes the work of Cyrus Levinthal, who in the mid 1960's built the first interactive molecular graphics system. Users viewed 3-D molecular images on an oscilloscope screen (vector graphics!), and manipulated them with a trackball-like device. The system, called "Kluge", handled both small molecules and proteins.
The computer technology of 1964 could generously be described as feeble by today's standards. Yet Levinthal was able push it to the limit to build the ancestor of systems still being developed and used. It makes me wonder what fantastic things might result if someone today took the same approach.

"This is not album of the year. This is album of the life." -Kanye West, Twitter.
Originally titled, WAVES, SWISH and So Help Me God, The Life of Pablo was a feature-packed, record-breaking, "living breathing changing creative expression," (words from West's own Twitter). From the melancholy "Real Friends" to the choir backed gospel rap epic "Ultralight Beam," Kanye West's most experimental studio album was released on Valentine's Day, 2016. The love declarations in "Low Lights" as well as the desperate pleas for someone to listen in "Saint Pablo" show a side of Kanye that we had only gotten hints of previously.
At times, Kanye appears to get almost too personal. Rapping about his therapy sessions and discussing whether him and Kim could get away with intercourse at a dinner party are only just examples of this strange side that is occasionally the polar opposite of the chain-swinging anthems of The College Dropout, or the acid-trap influenced Yeezus.
In addition to Kanye being more open lyrically and musically, Kanye seemed to be a lot more open with who had a voice on this album. The Life of Pablo features critically acclaimed musicians such as Chance the Rapper, Vic Mensa, André 3000, Frank Ocean, Kendrick Lamar, Rihanna, KiD CuDi, Young Thug, Desiigner, Chris Brown, Sampha, Future, Post Malone, The Weeknd and so many more. You can see the entire list of credited people here.
Despite working with a large amount of people on it, Kanye had a specific process for this particular record. At 12:44 AM on January 10, 2016 (just over a month than the expected release date), Mr. West tweeted, "I have no interest in working with anyone who is too important or too good or too traditional to take a call at 3am." Fans were confused. Why is he still pulling all-nighters to work on an album that comes out so soon?
Kanye would later explain to fans through Twitter that this messy release was his vision of "#contemporaryart." The idea of changing the way people perceive music releases would be further backed by close friend and collaborator Frank Ocean's Blond(e)/Endless releases.
Kanye had promised an album release of February 11th- however, his tweets made it evident that perhaps this would not be the case. Last minute changes were being made again and again. The handwritten tracklist that Kanye had originally tweeted changed several times, each time with varying differences and eventually became plastered with many signatures of those who had helped on the album, the most legible one being from fellow millionaire and family member Kourtney Kardashian herself.
The debut of West's Yeezy Season 3 at Madison Square Garden was followed up by the public listening party of The Life of Pablo where most didn't really expect to hear the album. They had been promised different albums and release dates for 3 years. In a way, the skeptics were right, as the final version of the record wasn't what was played for those in attendance of Yeezy Season 3.
Kanye's perfectionist nature was the main cause for the delays and broken promises. However, long term fans are used to this and know that Yeezy doesn't always stick to his word. Those who remember the hinted at Turbografx 16 will know exactly what I'm talking about.
So where are we now?
The Life Of Pablo has since been updated several times, including new lyrics, features and an entire new song. This constant upkeep (ending sometime mid-2016) conveyed the idea that West is not finished. He's expanding his skillset, attempting to give the world a better idea of what it really means to be Kanye West.
The Life Of Pablo was simply another step in Kanye's plan, and we will see how it plays out within the coming years through his fashion, music and entrepreneurship.

Apple shares hit a historic $1 trillion market cap value on Thursday, becoming the first publicly traded U.S. company to ever reach the milestone. The stock briefly hit the $207.05 per share price that was needed to bring Apple to the $1 trillion mark before retreating.
"I think it just speaks to just how powerful the Apple ecosystem has become over the last few decades," GBH Insights analyst Dan Ives told CNBC after the historic market move. "This is not the end, that they hit $1 trillion. I view this as just kind of speaking to a new a stage of growth and profitability."
Owning 10 percent of Apple right now sounds like a dream. But one man actually knows what it's like to watch that opportunity slip away: Ronald Wayne, the little known third co-founder of Apple.
Wayne joined Apple co-founders Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs, who were 21 and 25 at the time, to provide the company with "adult supervision" and to oversee mechanical engineering and documentation, in exchange for a 10 percent stake in the business, according to an episode of CNBC's "The Filthy Rich Guide."
On April 1, 1976, Wayne sat down at his typewriter and drew up an agreement outlining each man's responsibilities, making his role with Apple official. He also drew the company's first logo, which was used for less than a year before being replaced by the symbol associated with the company today.
Wayne rapidly grew concerned that any debts incurred by the business would fall on him, personally. Jobs had taken out a $15,000 loan so he could buy supplies to fulfill Apple's first contract with a Bay Area computer store, The Byte Shop, which had ordered around 100 computers, Wayne tells Business Insider. But The Byte Shop was known for failing to pay its bills and Wayne worried that Apple wouldn't be able to recoup the money.
While both Jobs and Wozniak were young and broke, Wayne had assets, including a house, and feared that the financial burden would fall on him if the deal went south.
So after spending a mere 12 days with Wozniak and Jobs, Wayne had his name taken off the contract and sold his shares back to his co-founders for $800.
Wayne's decision to leave the start-up cost him big. Today, a 10 percent stake in Apple would be worth more than $95 billion. That kind of a fortune would make Wayne one of the richest people in the world.
Amazingly, Wayne says he doesn't regret his decision, mostly because he knows he wouldn't have thrived at Apple. "I would wind up in the documentation department shuffling papers for the next 20 years," he tells Business Insider.
Wayne felt out of place, like he was "standing in the shadow of intellectual giants," he tells Cult of Mac of his brief tenor with the company. "I was 40 and these kids were in their 20s. They were whirlwinds — it was like having a tiger by the tail. If I had stayed with Apple I probably would have wound up the richest man in the cemetery."
The one thing he does regret, however, stems from his time with Apple. Wayne kept his original contract from 1976 for years. Then, in the early 90s, he sold it for $500.
"I had this Apple contract sitting in my filing cabinet, covered in dust and cobwebs, and I thought, 'What do I need to hold onto that for?'" he tells Cult of Mac.
According to "The Filthy Rich Guide," in 2011, the same contract sold at auction for $1.59 million.
This is an updated version of a previously published story.

Bike rider killed in Bristol hit and run crash
Police have taken possession of a Mercedes they believe is the car that struck and killed Kevin Williams. The owner is not from the area. The vehicle was in a garage in Bristol Twp., police said. At this point, the investigation is far from over and no arrests have been made yet. The driver has not been identified.
Original story below
By Alex Lloyd Gross
Police in Bristol Borough Pa, are looking for a silver or grey Mercedes AMG with heavy front end damage. The driver struck and killed an adult male who was riding his bicycle on Route 13 near Corson Street just after 8:00 PM December 19, 2017. The driver never stopped and kept going north on route 13. This was not a light impact . The bicycle exploded on impact, with pieces of it strewn almost 50 years from initial impact. The rider was thrown as well.
The family of the male has been notified, police said he is identified as Kevin Williams from Corson Street in Bristol Boro.. Fire trucks were called to light the scene and Fire Police from Bristol Twp. and Borough were called to duty. Cops are hopeful they will find the vehicle. Part of it were laying all over Route 13. If you notice a friend or neighbor that has a Mercedes AMG that is silver or grey, and they are not driving it recently, cops want to hear from you. Also, if you see one with damage to the front, even if it a different color, police in Bristol Borough would like to investigate it. There is a chance the driver may try to paint it.
Security cameras attached to multiple businesses in the area are being checked to see what they captured.

Wow what a great article. It's much more comprehensive than most of it's kind. One thing I've learned you really really need a feed reader in the Indieweb space and eventually on Micro.blog.
In the Indieweb you are going to really want to follow all those neat blogs you discover. On Micro.blog the timeline is purposely fleeting. There will be people you follow who you don't want to miss any of their posts or you just find that you are following too many interesting people and the timeline moves past too quickly: the solution is to subscribe to their Micro.blog blogs in the feed reader. That way you capture it all.
It's just an essential tool. I use Inoreader, which is listed in the article.

Who we are?
Hi, we are roce.ro | architecture office
We are two young architects who have established our office in Bucharest, Romania in 2015. Although architecture is a profession that relies on a lot of office hours, we are used to taking our work with us pretty much anywhere we need to: either to an old desk on an ongoing construction site, a chaise lounge resting on a beach, or a wood gazebo somewhere in the mountains. The passion for our work follows us everywhere we go.
We aim to offer customers comprehensive services in building architecture and interior design, and a diversified practice, from new residential, single or multifamily housing, to office and commercial planning and apartment renovation.
Our manifesto is: Good architecture helps shape behaviors, it evolves and transforms the space around us and brings people together in private or public places. Our aim is to provide high standard architecture services that meet the challenges of the ever evolving and demanding world we live in.
Architecture first
Architecture as a finished product is born from concept and creativity, from understanding not only the client's demands and requirements (functional, aesthetical and financial), but also the landscape and context of the future building, no matter it's function.
Once the above are resolved, choosing the right materials for structure and finishes becomes essential along with creating an efficient interior and exterior space, that work together as a whole.
It is as much a creative as it is a technical process that requires experience and dedication.
As architects we try to bring the best out of any kind of space and we always rely on: aesthetics, functionality and cost efficiency.
Concept + Model
Yes, this is how we work!
From concept to a detailed 3D model.
Before we start working on technical details, we study the building site and environment so that we can better understand the challenges in our client's requests. Design and Functionality then merge into concept.
Concept takes shape by 3D modelling and photo-rendering it into a realistic preview our clients can easily comprehend. Together we can study it, change it, improve it, until we get the very best results.
Wood | Framing
Since 2015 we have gained high expertise in working with wood framing structures and have successfully completed more than 30 such buildings for satisfied customers who now understand the advantages of this type of structural system.
Wood framing construction and use of metallic connectors technology is cost, material and time effective.
In framing construction, everything is modular and like Lego pieces, we design everything from the beginning so that engineers will have an easy job to calculate every panel, frame or beam.
Our activity centers on designing and following the correct execution of wood structures – framing (from terraces, gazebos, carports, garages, houses, attics, multifunctional halls, to interior design solutions).

Wanted Movie Story
- Radhe, a gangster with a mysterious past, kills others for money. Further, he meets Jhanvi while she trains and falls instantly in love with her. Even though her first meeting causes Jhanvi to think negatively of Radhe, he later begins to return her feelings. However, Talpade, a selfish and evil detective, lusts after Jhanvi and tells him to marry him with the risk that he would rape Jhanvi's mother. And also, Talpade is informed of Radhe's existence by the owner of Jhanvi. He tries to menace Radhe but ends up fearing him after being thwarted by him.
- Gani Bhai, an international donation, comes to India to be assassinated and hires Radhe. Gani Bhai leads his band from outside India. Golden Bhai is the leader of the Gani Bhai gang. Two gangs, Datta Pawle and Gani Bhai, are fighting for most of Mumbai. For this reason, Commissioner Ashraf Taufiq Khan decides to free Mumbai from crime. He arrests Gani Bhai, who makes several attempts to contact Radhe, but to no avail. Ashraf gets blackmail into releasing Gani Bhai after her men posted an explicit video of her daughter online after he kidnapped her.
- Under the power of drugs, his daughter reveals a mission in which an IPS officer, Rajveer Singh Shekhawat, assassinates Gani Bhai. Because Rajveer Shekhawat's identity is difficult to decipher, Gani Bhai holds his father, Shrikant Shekhawat, captive. So, Shrikant proudly tells her about his son without revealing his true identity. In addition, Gani Bhai mistakes Ajay, Rajveer's adoptive brother, for Rajveer Shekhawat and kills him. He realizes his mistake and pressures Shrikant to reveal Rajveer's identity.
- Gani Bhai kills Shrikant after refusing to tell him. Her son, Rajveer Shekhawat, who happens to be Radhe, arrives at the place of her father's death. Radhe is furious and decides to avenge the death of her father and her brother. Threatening Talpade, he locates Gani Bhai. After an intense fight, Radhe finally manages to save Ashraf's daughter and kills both Gani Bhai and his co-conspirator Talpade.

You Don't Know What You Have Until It's Gone
All I need is happiness.
I can say this without a doubt,
For there have been times
when I have been without.
I love walks through nature
Looking at the beauty in every tree.
Without happiness, the beauty is remembered,
Though it I can no longer see.
Music is still music, yes,
I still can play it all.
But when I'm without, the passion is lost,
Then the energy's weak and small.
Worst of all, I feel alone,
I'm annoying to all those near.
And so myself I shut away,
Giving in to my deepest fears.
With happiness, it's all different,
No more reasons to hide or cry.
Music sweeter, colors more vibrant,
There are friends of endless supply.
Meaning is lost with sadness.
So you see,
All I need is happiness,
and to feel its warmth in me.

I'm very excited about the newest installment in the Books of Chantments universe. I so enjoy the way magic is handled as something that is both powerful and can embue ordinary objects with extraordinary properties. So what is the author's Favorite Bit? Let's see.
I had to think a fair amount about this idea of a favorite bit for my novel BLUE MAGIC. It's not that I don't love just about a million things in my Books of Chantments universe. If anything, I was spoiled for choice. But many of the things that sprang to mind first seemed far too spoilery to squee about.
On second look, though, I decided many of those story elements were tied into the character of Juanita Corazon. I've realized that one of the neat things about writing the sequel to INDIGO SPRINGS (my first sequel, which sounds like a contradiction in terms) was getting to bring in someone who was new to the whole magical mess that I created in the first book. Don't get me wrong–I love writing about Astrid Lethewood and Ev and Will and even Sahara Knax . . . but when I embarked on the beginning of BLUE MAGIC, I had a pretty good sense of where they had to end up. (At least, that's how I remember it.)
With Juanita I got to carve out a little unexplored terrain. New person, new point of view character. Newness is alluring; it's got a shine to it that the familiar just doesn't.
So what do I love about this character? One of the most important things Juanita brings to this messed up mystical apocalypse is super-competence.
I know I'm not the only person who finds the ability to just do a job well and completely very sexy. And it may be that there's a dearth of that in these books. It's not that everyone besides Juanita is dumb, but a lot of them are inventing wheels–magic has just burst back into the world, and the people working with it are figuring everything out from the basics. It's all trial and error. Will Forest, meanwhile, is great at what he does, normally (he's a criminal psychologist and hostage negotiator) but his children are missing and so he's operating at far below his normal wattage.
Juanita's a Federal Marshall doing a great job of something that's, maybe, a bit easy for her. She was contemplating getting into something else before the magical outbreak upheaved everything, and so she gets this comparatively plum posting at Sahara Knax's trial for treason.
As the book progresses, she gets more and more dumped on her, and nobody really sees it. As far as all these wizards and witch-burners are concerned, she's a means to an end. There's a four-way struggle to control enchantment–the U.S. military is duking it out with two brands of religious zealot and Astrid Lethewood's volunteers–and every single faction is coming to Juanita. Some of them are polite enough to ask; then there are the ones saying 'do this or we'll kill your family.' But they're underestimating her: they all see her as a minimally educated cop in a dead end job. They don't realize they're each giving her information about their faction and she's using it to build her own picture of what's going on. It's not that she knows everything as the magical struggle unfolds, but she becomes the only person who's got pieces of everyone's puzzle.
Somehow she has to sort through all that information and prophecy and propaganda about the various agendas of all the factions and confront the super-powerful individuals running them. She has to do it without getting arrested, enchanted or killed and still manage to make the right choice.
I think she really rises to the occasion.

Make a beautiful Caramel Pumpkin Bread this fall season!
How do you make pumpkin bread even more dreamy than it already is? Caramel. Yes, loads and loads of drizzling beautiful caramel.
After nights of not sleeping lately, I may as well get up and bake, right? Good things come out of not sleeping like wonderful ideas for delicious baked goods that make the not sleeping part worth it.
Oh and it is not my kids keeping me up at night, just me. I am blaming it on stress.
We are in the process of trying to sell our house and that not knowing when we will sell our house or where we will be in the next few months, it keeps me up at night.
I will admit thought it isn't the stress of not being able to find a new house, it's the fact I am painting and redecorating in my sleep the house we found and fell in love with.
I'm sure you have had that feeling before of finding something that is perfect for you but it's just out of reach a tiny bit? Basically this one is out of reach until our house sells!
In the meantime though, I lay awake at night painting walls and redesigning rooms…and thinking up delicious foods to eat while I do that!
What do you need for Caramel Pumpkin Bread?
- Apple Butter
- Caramel
- Brown Sugar
- Sugar
- Flour or Gluten Free Flour
- Pumpkin
- Eggs
- Baking Powder
- Cinnamon
- Pumpkin Pie Spice
- Baking Soda
Now that we have everything to make this delicious Caramel Pumpkin Bread, are you ready to try it?
It's time to enjoy a slice of Caramel Pumpkin Bread!
Caramel Pumpkin Bread
- 1 Cup Apple Butter
- 2 Cups Brown Sugar Packed
- 1 Cup White Sugar
- 1 Tbsp Caramel Syrup
- 3 Cups Flour or Gluten Free All Purpose Flour
- 15 oz Can of Pumpkin
- 2 Eggs
- 1 Tbsp Baking Powder
- 1 Tsp Cinnamon
- 2 Tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
- 2 Tsp Baking Soda
- Preheat the oven to 375*.
- In a large bowl, begin to mix all ingredients together in order until the batter forms.
- Spray 2 bread pans with non-stick spray or use 1 bundt pan.
- Pour the bread in evenly and bake in the oven for 1 hour.
- It's best to do the standard toothpick test, poking the deepest part of the bread to be sure no batter is on the toothpick and that it's fully done inside.
- Carefully remove and serve topped with additional caramel drizzle.

After the Nets finished watching a sneak peak of "Captain Phillips," a Tom Hanks vehicle on the 2009 rescue of a ship captain off Somalia in 2009, they got a lesson on the real events from Fred Galloway, their deputy director of security. Galloway, who had joined the Nets last season, had been part of the rescue. Using his laptop, Galloway showed the team pictures of the rescue.and explained how it went down.
Galloway, an NYPD detective who worked with the Joint Terrorism Task Force, had been dispatched to the region.The US-flagged MV Maersk Alabama was the first American cargo ship to be hijacked in 200 years.The US Navy SEALS ultimately rescued Phillips and killed the pirates who held him.
"A lot of guys said, 'I didn't know that. I've got a lot more respect for you now,''' Galloway told Lenn Robbins. "I'm glad to be here, part of the entertainment business. Because in the entertainment business, there's room for mistakes. Where I come from, there was no room for mistakes.''
Tyshawn Taylor was impressed.
"This is real hero stuff right here,'' said Taylor. "The stuff I do is cool. Not too many people, I guess, can play at the level I can play, but what he does is a whole different ball game."
It's no wonder Mirza Teletovic recently told the Bosnian media that one of the best parts of his rookie season was listening to the stories told by Galloway and Nets security director Bob Masiello, both NYPD veterans.

Tiffany Trump's Interestingly Timed Engagement News Raises Eyebrows On Twitter
Tiffany Trump announced on Tuesday, a day before her father, President Donald Trump, leaves office, that she is engaged to Michael Boulos.
She shared the news in an Instagram post with a picture of the two at the White House, where Boulos reportedly proposed in the Rose Garden: "It has been an honor to celebrate many milestones, historic occasions and create memories with my family here at the White House, none more special than my engagement to my amazing fiancé Michael! Feeling blessed and excited for the next chapter."
View this post on Instagram
A post shared by Tiffany Ariana Trump (@tiffanytrump)
Boulos, 23, a London-based businessman, was born in Lebanon and raised in Lagos, Nigeria, where his family's motorcycle distribution and assembly business operates. Boulos was described by Vanity Fair as a "billionaire heir" to the family business, Boulos Enterprises.
He has been pictured with the Trump family at several events since 2018, including at the State of the Union address last year. His most recent tweets include an image of him and Tiffany with the Trump family shared by White House deputy chief of staff Dan Scavino, and a retweet of conservative commentators and conspiracy theorists Diamond and Silk criticizing President-elect Joe Biden.

A post shared by Michael Boulos (@michaelboulos)
Tiffany Trump, 27, the daughter of Trump's second wife, Marla Maples, has played a more subdued role than the president's older children throughout the presidency. Donald Jr., 43; Ivanka, 39; and Eric, 37; the children of Ivana Trump, have all been heavily involved with the Trump campaign. Ivanka has been part of the White House advisory staff. Trump's youngest son, Barron, 14, is his child with Melania Trump.
Tiffany Trump took on a more prominent role in her father's 2020 campaign after graduating last year from Georgetown Law. She spoke at the Republican National Convention and at campaign events in several states. She was slammed by LGBTQ advocates in October after she gave a speech at a "Trump Pride" event in Tampa at which she hit out at the media's "fabricated lies" about the Trump administration's anti-LGBTQ platform and misspoke the acronym, eliminating the T that refers to the transgender community.
Her engagement announcement comes in the final hours of her father's time at the White House. President-elect Joe Biden will be sworn in Wednesday. Critics raised their eyebrows at the timing, prompting her name to trend on Twitter.

Major Weather Shift Across Midwest to Affect Crop Development and Planting Prospects
An article from Agriculture.com reports a major shift in weather will delay improvements in conditions needed before crop fieldwork and planting can be done. According to the USDA's Agricultural Weather Highlights, which gives an outlook of forecast patterns across the U.S., the Midwest is experiencing rain and heavy snow as a slow-moving storm moves across the region, information that could affect farming in the Midwest region in particular.
MDA Weather Services Senior Ag Meteorologist Kyle Tapley says the "huge swing in temperatures [50 to 70 degrees] will stress the wheat crop across the central and southern Plains." An article from Reuters further predicts heavy rainfall and snow in some parts of the Midwest will slow corn plantings that are far behind yearly averages. According to Tapley, the weather shift, which will keep conditions wet and cool into this coming weekend, will be a deterrent to future crop development and planting prospects.
However, Tapley claims, once the slow-moving storm has passed through the Midwest, conditions will return to a warmer, drier state. "The 6- to 10-day period has trended drier across the center and western Midwest," he says, "but given the cool temperatures expected over the next 10 days, it will take some time for soils to dry out enough to allow corn planting to resume."
The USDA predicts the threat of "heavy snow" from the eastern-central Plains into the upper Midwest will soon diminish. While it remains to be seen what kind of impact the storm will have on actual crops, sources say the current weather conditions are delaying crop fieldwork and planting schedules.

Why I picked up my camera. People. Purpose. Passion
What inspired me to pick up my camera and make it my profession?
When I was little I always remember my Uncle Mark taking photos of me and my sisters when we were kids and I always loved how he captured the "moment". It gave me all the feels but I never thought that I could do more than just point and shoot and hope for the best in my everyday life.

There is something about this album cover. I don't exactly know what it is. I feel like it was a factor in me not liking this album. I just remember watching this on Netflix. She wasn't funny. I did think her story during I Am Comic was interesting. The whole 'new comic' in LA thing.
I know that when Liz Miele talks about kittens and running - I laugh. Hard. Iliza talks about getting stoned and running...meh. I give a fuck. Haven't listened to ep yet but voting with my gut on this. |

Sorry to hear about your puppy
Sorry to hear about your puppy. I lost my dog to an attack by two pitbulls. The vet ended up costing about $500 just for the dog to die.
It happens with animals but hopefully KC Jones will pull through. |

My little Paco has had a few medical emergencies -- I've always had to choose the "cheaper" treatment route (via lots of asking & research) -- he's still with me, walking like a little drunk dog sometimes and all. I've had to answer that resuscitate question. I didn't have pet insurance so I took it as an acknowledgment of possibly owing even more money (which is ultimately one of the reasons they have you sign that form). I always signed no, cause I couldn't afford it... Thankfully thus far he's always pulled through. WE have, pulled through together through many rough patches in life. That is why I don't feel guilty to have registered him as an emotional support animal. Hope KC is ok Last edited by memecherry; 06-21-2017 at 01:12 AM. |

INDIANAPOLIS — The Indianapolis Colts have had a ton of recent success in the NFL Draft when it comes to unearthing gems in the seventh round.
Since 2009, the Colts have selected the likes of Matthew Adams, Austin Blythe, Kavell Conner, Zaire Franklin, Denzelle Good, Ulrick John, Ricardo Mathews, Pat McAfee and Kerwynn Williams; all of whom have gone on to play extensively either for the Colts or elsewhere.
With their final pick in the seventh round of the 2019 NFL Draft, the Colts used the 246th-overall selection on Ole Miss offensive lineman Javon Patterson. Will he, along with fellow 2019 seventh-rounder Jackson Barton, continue the Colts' good fortune of seventh-round picks?
Patterson comes to the NFL with quite a bit of experience and versatility that he displayed with the Rebels. He started half of the time during his true freshman year in 2015 and then all 36 games since then.
He saw action at all three interior line positions, starting 33 games at left guard, six at right guard and three at center. The Colts currently consider him a center.
"Yeah, just coming in as a center, interior guy competing for the spot," Patterson told reporters after being drafted. "That's the main thing that Coach (Chris) Strausser and the GM (Chris Ballard) told me."
Off the field, Patterson has been just as dependable. He was on the Wuerffel Trophy Watch List in each of the last two years, which is the premier award for community service in college football. He was also on the SEC Student-Athlete Leadership Council in 2017, as well as the SEC Community Service Team and was an AFCA Good Works Team Nominee.
He even graduated high school early to enroll at Ole Miss as a five-star recruit. He was considered the No. 32-overall national prospect and No. 1 guard by 247Sports.
"The last four years, man, I have been a great leader. I started off my sophomore year being a leader. After my freshman year after taking over with Laremy (Tunsil) and those guys. My sophomore season, me and three other guys and Greg Little kind of became leaders of the offensive line," Patterson said when asked about what role leadership plays in his presence as a teammate. "I have established that and it has been great. I am hoping to take that to Indianapolis with me."
Patterson has a great physical build for any interior line position at 6-3 and 307 pounds. However, his shorter arms — 32 ½-inch arms and 78 ¼-inch wingspan are both less than the 20th percentile among offensive linemen — are one big reason many projected him as a center in the pros.
Despite his arm length, Patterson uses them as well as he can, extending them to keep oncoming defenders at a distance.
Patterson's strength and physicality certainly fits the bill for being an interior linemen. However, the Colts' offensive line takes it a step further.
"I love that mentality, man," Patterson said about the aggressiveness of the Colts' line. "I think when you have a group of guys that have that contagious energy, you can be very dangerous and I am excited to go join that group of guys, man."
Patterson displays good upper-body strength to push defenders where he wants them, and he can drive rushers off course while in in pass protection.
He can also get low, displaying an accurate and effective cut block to take defenders to the ground and out of contention from making a play on the ball.
But what might stick out the most when watching Patterson's film is his mobility. He moves really well and is used quite a bit on pull blocks. He can get out in front of his runner on off-tackle plays as well as outside runs. He's accurate in placing his blocks on the move, often laying them squarely in front of the defender.
Patterson is also used to blocking for quarterbacks like Chad Kelly, Shea Patterson and Jordan Ta'amu who can escape the pocket and make plays with their legs or buy time for receivers to get open, just like Colts quarterback Andrew Luck does.
"I bring the physicality and the mental. Throughout college I was a durable player. I was able to play all four years," Patterson said. "I think my biggest thing is being quick and powerful so I think I will use that to my advantage."
Patterson has the benefit of plenty of experience against tough, pro-style defenses in the SEC, but he still has some areas for growth.
Opponents tend to get past Patterson through his inside shoulder. It's typically against defenders who gets a good jump off the line. If Patterson can be a little quicker to react to that and have a wider base, then he could help counter those types of players.
With the Colts, Patterson will also quickly learn to become an equal-opportunity blocker. Don't have a man to block? Team up with one of your linemates and take their guy out.
Although Patterson has plenty of power, he could really develop a nasty streak by becoming someone who locks up the defender with the strength in his hands and drives them down. He shows a strong punch right now, but doesn't always snatch and finish off his man.
The rookie has the benefit of learning from one of the league's top centers in Ryan Kelly as well as a talented group of players who we've seen play along the interior line in Josh Andrews, Evan Boehm, Mark Glowinski and Joe Haeg.
"Yeah, I plan on watching the veterans, man," Patterson said. "I think that's the biggest key of getting chemistry together with that team, is being able to learn after the veterans – guys that have been there and done that, you know?"
While the Colts waited until the seventh round of this year's draft to add depth to the offensive line, they certainly got a couple of guys who bring experience and versatility to the table but also want to learn from the veterans in Barton and Patterson.

A senior woman from Ozone Park recently walked across the stage to receive her bachelor's degree, ending a journey that was 76 years in the making.
Born in Williston, South Carolina, Bettye Lee, 76, was raised by her grandmother. She moved to New York after high school, where she met her husband of 56 years, Melvin Lee Jr., and had four children. Lee and her husband also have eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
As she was raising her family, Lee postponed getting her bachelor's degree. However, over the years education has been a part of her life. For 21 years, Lee worked for the New York City Board of Education in food service, retiring in 2007. During that time, Lee taught adult Sunday school classes and also earned a certificate in Ministry from the New York Theological Seminary.
After getting encouragement from her children, Lee enrolled in the College of New Rochelle's (CNR) School of New Resources Brooklyn Campus at the age of 72.
"After I retired, we planned to relocate to Florida, but my husband became ill, so we decided to stay," Lee said. "You know, sometimes we make our own plans, but God knows better."
This past May, Lee walked across the Beacon Theatre stage at CNR's 111th commencement to receive her diploma. During the ceremony, Lee was among several graduates recognized by Dr. William Latimer, president of CNR, for their outstanding stories.
"I just can't stop thinking about that day," Lee said. "I'll never forget walking across that stage."
Lee thanked her faculty, staff and fellow classmates for inspiring her and her family for their support and patience while she was in school. Lee plans to use her degree to encourage her grandchildren to embrace education.
"I'm going to look back at this experience and wait to see what God has ahead for me," Lee said. "I can do all things through Christ, which strengthens me."

Ohio University Career Center Wins National Honor
ATHENS, Ohio – The Career and Leadership Development Center at Ohio University has been honored with the National Excellence Award from the National Association for Colleges and Employers.
The award, presented at the association's annual conference in New Orleans, recognizes career services, university relations and recruiting best practices.
Ohio University's selection, said President M. Duane Nellis in a release, was due in part to the development of Brain Based Career Development, a theoretical model that practitioners can use to identify and solve problems in career development. More information on the model is available here.
"In its five years of existence, Ohio University's Career and Leadership Development Center has established itself as a national model of excellence in the field of career services," Nellis said. "Through career and leadership coaching, among other programs and services, the center helps our students develop qualities that employers demand in the workforce."
In 2012, OU was one of the first American colleges to merge its student leadership development and career services efforts. In the time since, the Career and Leadership Development Center has served tens of thousands of students, Nellis said.

GENRE: Sci-fi Fantasy
Telepathy creates as many problems as it solves, as everyone in the secret organization x0 would admit. When new member Lola discovers another group of telepaths with a totally different approach, those problems multiply at the speed of thought.
Soon, Lola's family and friends are in danger. Lucky for her, she's not your average budding psychic. Each person she is close to has a special gift of their own. That's good, because it's going to take every power they possess to stop these others from tearing apart x0.
EXCERPTS (Exclusive Excerpt):
Lola felt nervous when Olumiji contacted her from his Monday morning in Japan. A Japanese woman Lola had only heard of, and an older man from India she'd met once, were with him. He told her how Warren Moore was certain x0 existed, thanks to the surprising story told by a private detective in Houston.
Lola's eyes widened as she listened.
"Yes. I did try to scare that man away. He was investigating Zane. I don't remember my words, but I was desperate to protect my child. I figured he'd decide I was some kind of nut and had got info on him another way. I mean, who thinks somebody will believe you when you say something so outrageous?"
All three telepaths knew Lola felt awful, and Olumiji knew she was about to feel worse.
"Lola, the PI had a full report on you from 2009. He has a reputation for taking cases with dubious ethics. It's our bad luck Warren picked him or we wouldn't be having this conversation."
Yet we are. Lola felt it from the other two telepaths.
"Was there anything particularly worrisome in his report?" she asked. She knew the answer before she heard it.
"There is lot about Maurice. You were meeting him often then. Harold was hoping you were having an affair or, better yet, prostituting yourself, but even he had to conclude it seemed more like Maurice was teaching you something."
"S--t. They found Maurice."
AUTHOR Bio and Links:
Sherrie Roth grew up in Western Kansas thinking there was no place in the universe more fascinating than outer space. After her mother vetoed astronaut as a career ambition, she went on to study journalism and physics in hopes of becoming a science writer.
She published her first science fiction short story and then waited a lot of tables while she looked for inspiration for the next tale. When it finally came, it declared to her it had to be a whole book, nothing less. One night, while digesting this disturbing piece of news, she drank way too many shots of ouzo with her boyfriend. She woke up thirty-one years later demanding to know what was going on.
The boyfriend, who she had apparently long since married, asked her to calm down. He explained that, in a fit of practicality, she had gone back to school and gotten a degree in geophysics and had spent the last 28 years interpreting seismic data in the oil industry. The good news, according to Mr. Cronin, was she found it at least mildly entertaining and ridiculously well-paying. The bad news was the two of them had still managed to spend almost all of the money.
Apparently she was now Mrs. Cronin, and the further good news was they had produced three wonderful children whom they loved dearly, even though to be honest that is where a lot of the money had gone. Even better news was that Mr. Cronin turned out to be a warm-hearted, encouraging sort who was happy to see her awake and ready to write. "It's about time," were his exact words.
Sherrie Cronin discovered that over the ensuing decades Sally Ride had already managed to become the first woman in space and done a fine job of it. No one, however, had written the book that had been in Sherrie's head for decades. The only problem was the book informed her it had grown into a six book collection. Sherrie decided she better start writing before it got any longer. She's been wide awake ever since, and writing away.
