My husband and I have been looking for a new Indian restaurant that is close by, and we decided to try Annam today for the first time. We were very impressed! The cuisine is different from what we've gotten used to, since we are apparently more familiar with North Indian food. We shared an appetizer (Egg Pakoda) which was yummy, the Palak Chicken (spiced perfectly), and the Surra Puttu (never had shark fin and it was really wonderful). I also had a mango lassi and we shared some buttered naan. I thought the prices were reasonable and the food and service was wonderful. We will be coming back, definitely!Our Customer
We found it by accident and decided to try them. Service was excellent and food was top notch! We will definitely go back.Our Customer
Best find in years! The Paper Masala Dosa was incredible and I don't think you'll find that anywhere else in Houston. My friends all had various versions of the lunch special while I had the Shrimp Fried Rice. Every item served was prepared with absolutely fresh ingredients and made for our lunch order. I cannot wait to go back!Our Customer

The Turning Point Intensive Sydney (Free)
Authentic Education
Saturday, 23 September 2017 from 9:00 am to 7:30 pm (AEST)
Event Details
Want To Radically Transform Your Life, Career Or Business?
(No Fluff, No Hype. Learn from a BRW Fast Starters 100 Company)
The Top 5 Frustrations That Inspire People To Attend
Many people live in conflict.
Their heart longs to do something inspiring and meaningful with their lives, but they postpone it to "someday". Or logically, you know you "should" be doing something but you can't make that decision to really follow through.
The most important decision you can make is the direction your life will take. The problem is, when it comes to these decisions, conflicts can arise between your head (thoughts), your heart (feelings) and your hand (actions).
These conflicts can be incredibly frustrating. Here are the 5 major frustrations people face in the world today. If you identify with any of them, then make sure you attend this event:
1. I want to create a better life as quickly as possible
I'm ready to create big changes in my life now. I want to have enough money to live a good life, have a loving relationship, be happy, have a career I love and travel when I want. And I want to feel fulfilment by enjoying the journey, not just the destination. I want to enjoy each day, starting today.
I would love it if someone could just sit me down and show me exactly how to do it.
2. My work is ok and it pays the bills BUT I don't love it.
I want to "do what I love" like everyone says. But I don't know what else I CAN do. I don't want to take risks and a paycut by changing careers right now. My work lacks meaning, the pay is not enough and I don't like the hours I do...but what other choices do I have?
3. I've tried so many things to turn my life around, but I still feel stuck.
Either there's something internal blocking me from moving forward, or maybe I'm just doing something wrong.
The things I've tried in the past seemed to work at first, but after the excitement wore off it just turned into "shelf help".
4. I don't know what I should be doing with my life
I know I have so much more to give and do, but I'm not sure what that is. If only I knew, then I could have something to throw my heart into and work towards.
5. Sometimes I'm unsure and I doubt myself.
It makes sense that many things are POSSIBLE, but I don't know IF I have what it takes. I hear all the fantastic stories at seminars and in books, but I'm not sure if they are true...or true for me.
Also, it doesn't help that my friends and family don't fully understand where I'm coming from.
Module #1: The Answer Is Alignment
By the end of this module, you will understand the science behind creating change in your life (and the research behind it)
The majority of people's problems are problems of perception. This mis-alignment with the truth can become so ingrained that people mistake it for reality (when it's not).
The good news is, when every cell of your body is ALIGNED towards the same direction, you begin to live the life others only dream of:
- You wake up feeling inspired
- You're productive throughout the day
- You achieve your goals much faster than you thought
- You just FEEL better about your relationships, health and all areas of your life.
This is the magic of alignment. It's not just woo-woo theories either, it's backed up by science.
Module #2: The Turning Point Process
Hands down, this is the quickest way to accelerate the results you want to get in life. The Turning Point Process is the 3 major actions you need to take to give you complete alignment, clarity and fulfilment in your life.
I will explain each of these 3 actions throughout the event. Not only will you understand them, but you will get practical experience of using them to create rapid change in your life.
I respect you for this...
Right now, I want to compliment you for reading this far, for your dedication and desire to improve, for wanting to make a real difference in your life and others around you. I respect you for this, and I want you to know that our team will help you achieve it using all the experience and resources we have.
Module #3: Discover Your Purpose
By the end of this module, you will have discovered your purpose. Just this module alone is worth coming to the course for.
You will also walk away with the answers to the 2 questions below. These questions may seem quite deep, but you will get my guidance each step of the way to make sure you get it right.
Who am I?
Many problems in life come from people not being able to "Know Thyself". When was the last time you set aside time to think about who you really are, what you really value or what truly is most important to you? For most people, never! And that's why they find making decisions difficult.
What will I be most fulfilled by?
What kind of life will you find truly inspiring? While it's different for everyone, I've found there are definitely 3 underlying principles of fulfilment that apply to anyone, including you. I will be explaining these at the event.
Personal Review from Yvonne Ralph
Dear Ben,
Over the past fifteen years I have spent thousands of dollars in the "Self-Development" field, and I have absolutely enjoyed my journey. I have studied NLP and even done Master Practitioner of NLP, have a diploma of life coaching and studied many of the masters including Tony Robbins, Wayne Dyer and Brain Tracy.
Whilst everything I have learned has been beneficial none have impacted me as much as you.
Your ability to take learnings, explain them in a way that is practical, scientific and woo-woo at the same time is extraordinary and beyond that you show easy and practical ways to implement them into our lives.
What I have learned in the short time I have known you is amazing and has already changed my life. Thank you for your generosity, your incredible knowledge and your commitment to make change easy for everybody.
I look forward to learning more from you in the future.

Director at The Pet Lovers Network
Module #4: Removing The Roadblocks Of Resistance
Once you know yourself, having the courage to really "Be Thyself" can be difficult too.
Nobody is perfect. We all have certain thought patterns and emotional blockages that hold us back. Quite often, people sabotage themselves in a ways that they aren't even aware of.
In this module, we will cover the common roadblocks that prevent people from reaching their goals.
It's almost impossible to reach your goals in life with one foot on the brake. But once you release the thoughts and emotions that don't serve you (and replace them with empowering ones) you will quickly see yourself rising above problems of the past and moving much faster towards your goals.
"If we did all the things we are capable of, we would literally astound ourselves." - Thomas Edison
That's why on this event you will also experience...
Module #5: The Universal Freedom Technique
By the end of this module you will have worked through an issue and be able to do it to yourself (or others) in the future.
Only a holistic approach can create permanent change with people.
Whether someone feels depressed or just wants to change a habit, over 7,000 coaching sessions has taught me that BOTH logic and emotion are needed to be 100% effective.
Have you been dealing with the same type of problem for a while now? Or do you just want to learn a remarkable way to unlock your authentic self?
Module #6: Accelerated Change Strategies
Everything in life has an ultimate strategy. Changing your patterns of thoughts and feelings is no different. In order to cut literally years off your learning curve, I will be sharing with you my top 2 most powerful strategies for rapid change.
Once you change the way you think and feel, you won't have to push yourself. Your actions will happen effortlessly.
The strangest thing happens once you change your actions... Your results will also happen effortlessly.
Personal Review from Dr. Maria Zuschmann
Hi Ben,
Also wanted to say a huge heartfelt thank you, The 2 courses I have attended with you so far have been brilliant.
I have done many different courses, attended seminars etc that gee you up for the period of time you are there and if I'm lucky the week after.
With your courses, I walk away and implement straight away and you have given me the tools to be able to look at the system and refine as I go, rather than for waiting for the never arriving perfection before taking action. Truly life changing.
The most important thing it has given me is the ability to acknowledge and recognise my shadows. Life is way more fun embracing them and creating opportunities to let them be fed for good and moving ever closer to my big goal.
Thanks again!

Module #7: The DREAMER System
Achieving your goals is not about getting the best piece of advice or person out there to help you. It's really about getting the best out of YOURSELF.
Deep down, YOU already have the answers. YOU know your situation the best and YOU will always be around to help yourself when life throws you a curve ball.
That's why the DREAMER System is so powerful. It's the ultimate way to get results with yourself (and others) on ANY topic. Whether you want to help yourself get healthier or help someone else improve their relationship, this system brings out the best in people.
Module #8: Automating Your Actions
Ask yourself this question:
"What would my health, relationships or finances look like if I just did the things I KNEW I should do?"
You see, most people don't need more information. They just need to take action on what they already know.
However, most people are plagued by either:
- Internal problems such as overwhelm, procrastination or self-doubt.
- External problems such as disorganization, poor time management and a lack of systemization.
The good news is, now that we have laid the groundwork from the previous modules, automating your actions occurs quite easily.
Module #9: Your Mission MAP
Once the event is over, we want to ensure you continue from strength to strength.
That's why the last module contains your Mission MAP (Master Action Plan). It's a clear, concise, step-by-step plan of what you should do once you finish the course.
We will write this together on the last day. It will be tailored to you and sums up everything you did over the event to inspire you to continue to live your love.

"When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, He was deeply moved in spirit and troubled. "Where have you laid him?" He asked. "Come and see, Lord," they replied. Jesus wept. Then the Jews said, "See how He loved him!" – John 11:33-36
Like you, I live in a place where death is all around me. They are the walking dead. Spirits completely cut off from the God who made them and is earnest that they be restored to Him. He knew no one could get back to Him after the great and burdensome lies of anxiety, fear, conflict, shame, mistrust and alienation set themselves up as impenetrable roadblocks. No one could leap over the miserable mess or trudge through it or pretend it all did not exist. No one could get back to the Papa's embrace. No one could take it all on. And the Papa knew that, so He sent His son to bear the load and clear the way. What good Papa would send his own for the sake of many to settle the payback?
But He did. And the deliciousness of it melts my heart. But, like I said, I live where the dead walk. I am in the Papa's embrace, but they cannot even look over the heap of sin to see the arms that are holding out for them. I see those arms everywhere. When He carries me through the streets and over the mountains I feel His arms are long enough to hold me and still lift them up too. But they can't see. And they can't hear. And they can't even want.
My words that cannot yet speak their language, are too short and small. My startling image being so tall and so blond, must speak that I am some American heiress, my wallet full and my opportunities vast. Quite the contrary.
There are days when it all seems too much and it feels that my presence here is for naught. I want to get riled up inside and run outside preaching. I want to shake upside down the bodies of the "upper class" and see what falls out of them–would their souls come crashing to the ground, hollow or filled with stories they dare not tell? I want to snatch up every child I see on the street and kiss the feet of precious, poor wrinkled Indian women sitting on the side of the road selling a basketful of seeds. I want to throw a rock at the windows of the sleek cars that drive right by the ragged children and the old women. And when I pray with a woman in a village who looks at me listlessly out from her hole of depression and kiss her check, I want her healed, in Jesus' name!
Oh God! Where are you? Really, you could do so much more.
You could even set me aflame like your torch so I could do so much more.
I pick up the pink student bible I used as a teen until my early marriage. Sometimes I reach for it because it has no study notes and maps to get engrossed in. Only the raw Word. "Turn to John 11", You say. Strange, I think. I know that is the story of Mary and Martha and Lazarus. What does this have to do with the rumblings in my interior landscape?
I read. Again. Again. And then again. Slower. Outloud. Standing up, pacing. My children's voices outside my room fade in their happy play. My husband is in a village 45 minutes away in meetings with the mayor to discuss the digging of a new cistern. Just me and the God of the universe. Whoa.
Jesus, He knew Lazarus was going to die. He knew that He loved him and that sisters Mary and Martha loved him. He finally goes to them, walks and walks to where they are even though He knows that so many along the way and so many there are not too keen about Him. When Martha learns that Jesus is coming, she runs out to meet Him. Mary doesn't bother. Drat. I am always like that Mary.
Martha laments to Jesus that if He had been there, her brother would still be alive. They have a brief and potent conversation where Jesus establishes His identity and Martha confesses its truth. Always crucial in any hard place — remember and confess Jesus.
Jesus calls for Mary. Mary runs to Him. Again, like me, dear Mary. She says to Him the same thing her sister did, but no conversation takes place. It is all too much for her, her knowledge of who Jesus is and what could have been and she breaks down, sobbing. Her tears mean something; her sobbing is a language for which there can never be any words.
Jesus could have gotten on with it and showed her what He could do–go raise the man to life! Take away all the grief! Don't dwell in compassion, move on to action! Go, Jesus! Show the glory! Show it!
But no.
Jesus is deeply moved in spirit and troubled. I pause. There is more action here than I realized and it is important. "Thank you, Yeshua", I whisper. I have read the passage dozen of times before but today it meant something to me that He wept. He wept.
There was death and He hated it. There was grief and it troubled Him. There was love and it moved His Spirit. So He joined the small crowd of weepers and I imagine sat down next to them and wiped His eyes on his shirt and blew His nose on a leaf He grabbed off a nearby tree.
What is the point of weeping? Especially if you've got the power to do something? I need to know.
"You don't weep over something that has no value." Yes. No one weeps over a bag of garbage. And Satan thinks we are all trash bags. He never weeps over us. He never stops and sits next to us in our human condition and this story we are all in and cries. But the Father of compassion and the God of all kindness (2 Cor. 1), does. Because He loves.
That means something. That is warfare. That's a stance. That's a shout! That's beautiful.
"We are at the weeping place together, my daughter. I am sitting next to you, I am driving with you, I am walking with you and I am weeping with you as your spirit is deeply moved and troubled. But keep believing! I am getting to those living graves all around you, I'm coming! I'm coming! And when I say, "come out" those dead are going to come out and you are going to rip off those grave clothes and let them go free."
"But for now, we are weeping together, you and I."
Sometimes, yes sometimes, we are the weepers and wailers, announcing to the forces of evil and to the apathetic all around us that there are some things, there are some people worth our tears. Worth the Holy Spirit crying through us. Worth our being deeply moved and troubled. Positioned in this strange and seemingly unproductive assignment, we display the heart of God.
And God, this is the God who will not stop with the weeping. Not until there is resurrection.
3 thoughts on "The Weeping."
Weeping…over the things that have value. Yes, Jesus is calling us to weep for those and for the things in the world that breaks his heart. When we weep with him, or him weep with us, that we begin walking spirit to spirit, nearest to His heart, not in our own impulsiveness or frustration. Thanks for this weeping your heart, mind and spirit are doing. Lord, Jesus, give us your heart that weeps…and for being a part of taking off the grave clothes when you call them to life. We don't do the calling to life, though every ounce of us wants to. But we get to unravel what has bound them so that their spirits will be free. Amen.
Angela, love your transparency share with us your thougths and feelings as you let the reality fo those around you wash through you, encounter Jesus through His Word and experience His peace and presence. A portal through earthly and eternal realities…thanks my friend for sharing, cornelia

NNMREC is structured to close key gaps in understanding through the support of baseline studies, on-going monitoring, and setting the technical, ecological, and human dimensions standards for wave energy projects.
Wave energy technology is still in its infancy and, much like wind technology 20 years ago, many wave energy conversion (WEC) devices have been developed but no single technology has been proven superior. Only a handful of full-scale devices have been deployed in the world. There are currently four general technology categories and hundreds of different prototypes. Development and testing of a variety of devices is being carried out in all corners of the world, including Oregon.
Major technical considerations for wave energy development include its ability to withstand a harsh ocean environment and efficiency for extracting energy from the resource, both of which are considered key to its economic success. The key technology challenges are associated with not only electrical generation and output, but mechanical systems, mooring and anchoring, survivability and reliability, predictability (wave forecasting), and integration of the generated power into the existing electrical grid. Other considerations include impacts that the technology may have on the surrounding marine environment including concerns for migratory grey whales and fish species, and changes to sediment transport and near-shore coastal processes. Social and economic concerns have also been raised, with concerns voiced about loss of commercial and recreational fishing grounds and other recreational activities including surfing and kayaking. All of these considerations are or soon will be under investigation through research and through testing these devices in lab and field (ocean) facilities.

Trax serves alcohol to 21+ and soda for free, the parties are themed and is a lot like a club. Other than that a lot of academic events go on throughout the week and clubs do a lot of activities.Read More
Join sports! With the school taking off the off-campus housing for the 2014-2015 year there will be almost NOTHING to do on the weekends so hopefully if would change.Read More
To be honest, there's fun for everyone, though it doesn't vary much from the average college fun. A lot of students go out for the weekend to different fraternity houses, but those who don't go out for the weekend have options available at the coffee house, which hosts movie nights of new releases, karaoke nights, concerts, and board game nights. There is also a dance club on campus called TRAX that students can go to for Saturday events. They host tons of parties that people come to for a few hours to dance off some steam.Read More
There is also really great social programming such as concerts, Fall Frenzy and Spring Weekend Carnival, plus parties at the on-campus nightclub (that serves free alcohol to 21 and over students!- 1 per hour). It is also really easy to get involved in meaningful extracurriculur activities, or create your own club!Read More
The student activities committee (which anyone can be a part of!) always has events happening on the weekends and throughout the week. There's never really a dull moment. In addition some SU traditions that students love are: spring weekend, Christmas candle light service, President Lemon's reading of The Night before Christmas, faculty serving students Thanksgiving dinner, St. Patty's weekend, sporting events, and so much more.Read More
Going to the river is a great way to pass a weekend away. Walking into Selinsgrove is also a wonderful way to spend a weekend. Whether it be taking the shuttle into the Susquehanna Valley strip, or just hanging around with your friends at Trax or on campus, there are so many fun things to do here.Read More
There is always a lot of things to do on campus. There is a night club on campus and a coffeehouse in which both offer activities throughout the week. The Susquehanna River is only a mile away, so there are kayaking and other fun waterfront options. There is a mall only about five minutes away, as well as a movie theater. In the fall, there is the Bloomsburg Fair, which is only about a forty minute drive from campus. If you take the initiative to have fun, you will find fun ways to spend your free time.Read More
SU is the perfect size, because there is a good amount of activity, but not so much that you're a face in the crowd. There is Greek life, of course, as well as volunteer fraternities. if you're into that kind of thing. There are clubs ranging from activist (Hearts for Homeless or WomenSpeak) to Interest (Anime Club or Bellydance Circle) and everything in between. There are some pretty cool intramural sports as well. It's also important to note that it is easy to start your own club, and you're bound to find other people with your interests. SU is also really great with providing entertainment: there are two concerts (with names like Cobra Starship and DJ Pauly D) each year, sporting events, theatre, art shows, lectures, musical performance, and anything in between. Also, Bucknell University is close by, and if you have a friend with a car it's easy to go to their events as well. For a small school in a small town, it's a pretty sweet deal!Read More

220. I have a small point on the Swedish experience,
which is often quoted. We had it put to us this morning that there
was, you might say, a cherry-picking, urban operation set in place,
to which the Swedish national postal service responded with predatory
pricing, almost bankrupted itself, had to then put charges on
other services, hence the very substantial rise in domestic mail
as distinct from business mail. Could such a situation arise in
the UK or would the postalised pricing system be a protection?
(Mr Corbett) I think it would be our job, Chairman,
to ensure it did not arise in the UK. The situation in Sweden
is that they introduced liberalisation without an awareness of
the importance of having a regulator to watch what was going on,
and these very significant price distortions, as Swedish Post
dropped its business price to try to hold off the impact of new
entrants, really came about because there was no regulation in
place to get them to stop it. Equally, with regard to the very
significant hike in the prices charged to domestic consumers.
Clearly that is a lesson we would wish to learn from.
221. I am going to ask you one last question
and preface it in this way. I am perhaps more agnostic about this
matter than some of my colleagues are, because I take the view
that probably you have embraced the model we have had for the
liberalisation of gas and electricity which went down the route
of volumes to major customers, trickling down, as it were, to
the domestic market. So I am a bit more relaxed about it than
some of my colleagues but, nevertheless, could you for the record
paint the picture of how you see the liberalised market operating?
How Consignia would respond to that and what the service would
be for consumers, both domestic and business? Could you give us
a couple of minutes on how you see it through the looking-glass?
(Mr Corbett) I will try to do that in a couple of
minutes, Chairman. I think the interesting contrast between post
and utilities like gas, electricity and water, is that when there
is a price differential or a service quality differential offer
to big users of gas and electricity, it is the big user which
derives the benefit and that is the end of it. When you have similar
opportunities being made available to bulk mailers, remember,
although 86 per cent, as we said, of all mail is posted by businesses,
63 per cent of all that mail is delivered to you and me. So the
service that the big mailer wants is a service which is not only
going to provide value for money but is also going to be responsive
to their needs to be able to get in touch with the people they
are communicating with, private individuals. So anything which
improves the quality of the service will actually reflect in the
service we receive as individuals. You do not get this sharp distinction
which you get with other utilities between the interests of the
business users and the interests of the private consumer, because
they are integrally related one to the other. We believe that
the proposals we are putting forward for the liberalisation of
bulk mail will very quickly filter through into service quality
improvements for the benefit of individual users.
222. On that point, Mr Corbett and Mr Stanley,
thank you very much. We will come back to you on any points we
think we need further clarification on, but thank you very much
for taking the time to attend this afternoon.
(Mr Corbett) Thank you.

1996 -
Below is the text of Mr Major's speech to the Society of British Aerospace Companies, held in Seoul on Tuesday 5th March 1996.
The British Ambassador has a very compelling way of encouraging you to speak to audiences, he just announces that you are about to do so. But happily on this occasion I have no inhibition about that, not least because although this is my first visit to Korea I found it an enormously entertaining and worthwhile day and I look forward to coming back again.
I came here today essentially to follow-
We had of course met just a day or two earlier at the Europe-
When the President and I met a year or so ago, we agreed that we should try and increase the economic relationship between our two countries. Since then British exports to Korea have increased by about 45 percent, and Korean exports to the United Kingdom by 61 percent, and our two-
You can find the same sort of relationship in the interchange of investment, British in Korea and Korean in Britain. Indeed Britain now takes 40 percent of Korean investment across Europe, whilst Britain in turn is Asia's largest single investor. So I think there is a very firm basis for our two countries on which to build.
One of the changes that we are seeing around the world at the moment is I think an increased understanding across the world of the very remarkable changes that are happening in Asia, not least of course in Korea. The economic growth, the economic enthusiasm of what is happening in this part of the world is remarkable by any yardstick.
I have no doubt that the growth of trade between Europe and Korea, between my country and Korea, are bound to increase. We have signed a whole series of agreements to directly cooperate in a number of sectors, and as a result of that that is bringing a lot of British trade missions here to Korea and vice versa.
This reception marks the work of one of those trade missions -
I look forward to going back home on some future occasion in an airbus frame, a Rolls-
Let me just say that contacts between our countries of course are not just confined to business and governments. I think that contacts between the whole of Europe and the whole of Asia are becoming increasingly important.
So, of course, are contacts between people. There has been a very rapid growth in the contacts between Europe as a whole, the United Kingdom specifically, and Korea over recent years. We have, for example, an increase of Korean students in the United Kingdom of 20 percent last year and 20 percent the year before. I am also told that the United Kingdom is the top destination in Europe for Korean tourists and that none of them come to watch our cricket team, which I personally find astonishing.
We have, I think, complementary strengths -
Thank you for being here.

Job.com Poll Uncovers Jobseeker Skepticism after State of the Union Address
March 03, 2010
Fredericksburg, VA
Fredericksburg VA -- March 3, 2010 -- A recent Job.com poll posted in early February, which surveyed over 6,000 Job.com jobseekers, revealed that jobseekers nationwide find themselves divided by the President's variety of proposed bills and employment plans.
Nearly a third (32%) of all poll-takers felt that a combination of proposals, as opposed to single programs, would have the largest effect on job growth. These proposals ranged from tax credits for small businesses that increase their workforce and/or wages (24%), elimination of capital gains taxes for small businesses (10%), tax incentive for all businesses to invest in equipment and new plants (10%) to giving $30 billion of paid back TARP funds to small banks in order to credit businesses and keep them afloat (5%) and doubling of child care tax credit (2%).
"You can see from these statistics how concerned jobseekers are about what the President is doing to help with job creation," says Brian Alden, CEO of Job.com. "People are naturally frustrated with the situation, and need strong leadership to create more opportunities. At Job.com, we provide jobseekers the tools they need to begin their job searches with the best possible advantages."
Other questions regarded which of the President's proposed bills would succeed in legislation first (the Jobs Bill had the majority at 64%) and which industry will see the biggest job growth as a result of new legislation (Infrastructure, at 42%).
"These polls are very important to us, as a company," adds Alden. "We strive to be as connected to jobseekers and to the public as possible, so that we can give them the best help and assistance during their job search. We offer unique career advice and job search resources for our 9 million individual monthly viewers, and we are confident that our members are given superior support in their searches."
When asked whether they felt President Obama's speech was comprised of mainly fact or fiction, 44% "believe that President is taking strides to improve our economy and create more jobs," while 55% felt that "President Obama's speech was filled with more fiction than fact." Though the unemployment rate fell from 10.0% at the close of 2009 to 9.7% in January 2010, many jobseekers remain frustrated by the lack of opportunities available. Many believe in the President's good intentions, but feel that he has made promises he will be unable to keep, at least not within his expected time frame.
January 2010 job losses were down to 20,000, compared to 85,000 in December 2009. The latest documentation from the Bureau of Labor Statistics will be posted on March 5, 2010. Whatever path the President's plans will take, Job.com will continue to be supportive of its 20 million members by providing excellent resources not only for a jobseeker's current job search but for their long-term career goals. To weigh in with this poll, please follow the link to www.job.com/my.job/poll/.

Four Evanston Township High School students have been charged with misdemeanors after a student from New Trier Township High School was pulled from his car and beaten after a close basketball game between the schools.
Officials are seeking video they hope will shed light on the attack.
The incident occurred Dec. 11 in the parking lot of Northwestern University's Welsh-Ryan Arena in Evanston, after the New Trier basketball team defeated Evanston 54-50.
"The New Trier student was seriously injured," Evanston Superintendent Eric Witherspoon said in a letter to parents this week.
New Trier officials said today that the student was treated at a hospital and released the night of the incident.
All four Evanston teens admitted to drinking and told police they were wearing body paint when they entered a parking lot after the game and started pounding on the victim's car.

Alyssa Milano Isn't Afraid Of Motherhood: It's Hard To Kill A Baby! Exclusive!
The mom-to-be is loving being pregnant and she says her own mother is giving her the best parenting tips!
Alyssa Milano has that mommy glow! The 38-year-old actress announced via Twitter on Feb. 22 that she and her husband Dave Bugliari, 32, are expecting their first baby. HollyBaby.com ran into the star at the NYC premiere of Bradley Cooper's new film Limitless presented by DeLeon Tequilla on Mar. 8, and she revealed the best piece of advice she's been given so far!
"It sounds so harsh but a friend of the family recently told me it's really hard to kill a baby," she tells us jokingly. "And I thought about it and I said … 'That makes me feel much better.'"
The couple who are expecting the baby in early fall haven't found out the sex of the baby, even though she "prophetically" refers to it as a "he." But Alyssa tells us that ever since she became pregnant she can't get enough of her mom — so sweet!
"I just think I want to absorb all of my knowledge [from her]," Alyssa says. "There's something very comforting about being with your mother anyway but also being with her at this time you know, knowing that she knows all the tricks and everything."
When asked if there are any crazy late night cravings, she says: "Broccoli … boring I know!"
Best of luck to the happy couple!

Earlier this month, I got my first blog award, the versatile blogger award! Not going to lie, I was a little excited! I was given this by a lovely blogger from the Philippines, named Mar, whose blog, Not Your Ordinary Beauty Queen, is full of a bunch of great posts about her fashion, life as a student, etc. Go check it out, I love her style and she seems like a sweet girl. I meant to post this sooner but I got so busy getting ready for school and stuff. Thanks so much Mar, I love your blog too. :)
So, I think I'm supposed to share 7 interesting/rather random things about myself...here you go! Haha! :)
1.) I love to read but I can never pick a favorite book, there's too many! ;)
2.) I love to write! Research papers, other random papers for school, short stories, fairytales, blogs (of course!), almost anything! I want to write books someday, I already have a few ideas. ;) Maybe I'll share some things I've written on here sometime...
3.) I'm desperately shy...I've always been an introvert. I'm not sure if you can tell at all from my blog, but if you knew me you'd know. Sometimes I wish I wasn't but then I get over it; I can't change it, and I don't want to, it's just the way I am. ;) If I know you well, I'll talk for hours but, if not...not so much. I try to hide it when I need to and force myself to talk to people when I don't want to or give a speech/presentation in school, so I'll live. :)
4.) I don't like picking favorites of most things like music/tv/movies etc. because I always like way too many different things but...If I had to choose, my favorite singer/musician is a girl named Alexz Johnson. Most people have no idea who she is, but she does have a pretty big bunch of loyal fans around the world. Her voice is absolutely amazing and I love all of her songs! Look her up! ;) (I'll probably do a post on her eventually) Here's one of my favorite of her songs:
5.) I've recently developed an obsession with petticoats/pettiskirts/crinolines/tutu skirts, whatever you want to call them, I love them. They're basically either frilly poofy skirts to wear under a skirt to make it poofy, or ones that you can wear by themselves or with a slip. I found a few on the internet and couldn't stop myself from buying them...lol! I'll probably be taking pictures in them soon. :)
6.) I'm currently studying to be an Elementary School Teacher in college. I love children, learning, and school, so it makes sense for me. :) (In case you're wondering, the shyness thing isn't that much of a problem with children, I've always been good with kids and I love teaching them. :) )
7.) I have an obsession with anything and everything related to Disney. I absolutely adore Walt Disney, the man, the movies, Disney world and the rest of the theme parks, Disney channel, all the characters, the princesses... pretty much the whole company, and I'm not ashamed of it! lol! I've read/have so many books on the subject...I love it a little too much! (again I have a post (s?) planned on this topic in the future...:) )
Was all of that really random...lol! You were warned... :) Thanks for reading, talk to you all soon. I'm working on editing a bunch of vacation and outfit posts right now.

Hainanese Chicken Rice was one of my favorite dishes growing up - it still is one of my favorites. It is Singapore's national dish and rated #45 on CNN's list of World's Best Foods. Interesting fact - originating from Hainan, China - this wasn't made popular until the mid-1800's when the Chinese immigrants introduced this dish to Singapore. The star of this 3 part dish is the lightly flavored chicken. It's best to use free-range, organic chicken to get that tender, juicy texture and ... View Post

Proposed bike trails to connect 9/11 sites
On the twelfth anniversary of the terrorist attacks of 9/11, the September 11th National Memorial Trail Alliance is putting into action the plan to finish a series of bike paths connecting the cities where the planes crashed and the memorials to the victims.
According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Somerset County, Pa., has received $100,000 in grants to begin work to connect a path from Shanksville, Pa., where Flight 93 crashed, to the Great Allegheny Passage. The GAP trail, along with the C&O Canal Towpath, already connect Pittsburgh with Washington D.C. where Flight 77 struck the Pentagon.
From there the trail will extend up the East Coat Greenway, a long-term project to connect all the major cities on the East Coast with a traffic-free corridor.
The final leg, from New York to Shanksville will follow roads and rail trails through central Pennsylvania, though the exact route has not been decided.

Kent County, England, in 1857. It became the Kent Police in 2002. Kent Constabulary buttons are fairly common and sell online for about $1 to $5.
Q: I have eight plates marked "Thomas, Bavaria." They are about 13 inches in diameter. I have no clue what I have. Can you help me?
A: Your large plates are service plates, which are used during the first course of a formal dinner under a smaller salad plate, appetizer or soup bowl. They were made by Porcelain Factory Thomas & Co., a factory started by Fritz Thomas in Marktredwitz, Bavaria, Germany, in 1903. The company became a subsidiary of Philip Rosenthal & Co. of Selb, Bavaria, in 1908. Most production moved to Speichersdorf in 1960. Thomas porcelain still is being made. You have part of a set of 12 service plates. A full set sells for $100 to $300. Just eight are worth $100.
Tip: The more elaborate the interior fittings for a desk, the more valuable the piece.

Q. Can you give me any information about a devil creamer? It's red-orange and is shaped like a devil on his knees. The cream pours out of his mouth. The bottom is marked "Royal Bayreuth, Bavaria," with a lion holding a shield with the letter "T" on it. The date 1794 is below the shield.
A. Royal Bayreuth is known for its creamers, pitchers, cracker jars, bowls, salt and pepper shakers, and other items made in the shapes of fruit, tomatoes, lobsters, shells, flowers, animals, birds, clowns and more. The red devil is part of a group of pieces known as "Devil & Cards," a group that was shaped like a devil, playing cards or both. The red devil alone was made as a 31/2-inch creamer, a 41/2-inch milk pitcher and two different ashtrays. A black devil also was made. The mark on your creamer, in blue, green or black, was used after 1900. The date on the mark is the year Royal Bayreuth was founded in Tettau, Bavaria. The company still is in business, now making dinnerware. There is a club for collectors, the Royal Bayreuth Collectors Club (RoyalBayreuth.org), which has an annual convention. A creamer like yours sold for $360 last year.
Q. I bought this cuff bracelet years ago at a yard sale. It's about 2 inches wide and I don't know what metal it is, but it has an antiqued finish. The inside has a mark for Miriam Haskell, but it doesn't look like her typical costume jewelry. Can you help and maybe give me a value?
A. The finish on your bracelet is called Russian gold. Other designers of vintage costume jewelry used similar finishes, but Miriam Haskell's company used a secret signature Russian gold plating recipe developed just for them that resulted in patinas ranging from dull to bright. It was a type of gold plating on brass, and the plating solution is said to have 24-karat gold among the secret ingredients. Pieces were hand-dipped and then sealed. Many were further embellished with glass beads, faux seed pearls and other decoration. Haskell's Russian gold also is found on many their filigree pieces. Asking prices for Miriam Haskell hinged bracelets like yours range from $100 to $250, but we've found selling prices to be less than $100. Embellished examples are worth more.
Q. I have my great-grandfather's accordion, a Pre-1900 Hohner two-row button diatonic. It was appraised and I was told it would fetch four figures. I'd love to keep it, but no one in my family wants it. It's normal fifth scalar organization, 20 plus treble buttons and 12 bass buttons in very good condition. Where should I start?
A. You probably will get the highest price by selling the accordion at an auction of other antique musical instruments. Expect to pay the auction gallery a commission, a percentage of the hammer price. Fees a...http://www.vindy.com/news/2018/jun/24/flower-vases-urns-fountains-prove-popula/
He was astonished by Peru's diversity, both in terms of geography and inhabitants, as he traveled around the country.Thomas Dworzak travelled around the world—Bavaria, Georgia, Iran—to capture the places he had called home: places that he says still burn within him. Of Tblisi, Georgia, in particular, Dworzak wrote in the forward to his photo set, "I force myself away for longer periods but am sure to always come back. And still, I will always remain a foreigner…I think I will never gain the same level of understanding, the language, the dialect, the humor, than whenever I return to visit my father in that place I left so desperately 30 years ago." Dworzak photographed his father in the Bavarian village from which he was deported as a child; his wife in Tehran; his friends in Tblisi. While Dworzak also included images of location and scenery, it is clear that, for him, home is haunted by the people who inhabit it.It is impossible for "home" to be interpreted exactly the same way by different people, influenced as we are by entirely different things: the way light strikes the wall of our favorite diner, the curve of our grandmother's cheek, the way it feels to walk the same street for years. But the book proves that there are many ways to think about a home, and even more ways to visualize it.Home is available for purchase at the Magnum shop.
Dutch growers and a wealth of flowers, sorted by color. The Keukenhof, translated to Kitchen Garden, owes its name to Countess Jacoba van Beieren (Jaqueline of Bavaria), who had a castle at this location in the 15th century. She stayed there very often, because the area provided good hunting grounds. Herbs and vegetables were grown in the yard for her kitchen and these have given way to more colorful plants and flowers. Over six million flower bulbs provide beautiful scenic spots throughout the park. Large flower palaces are filled with oceans of tulips, daffodils, hyacinths and smaller varieties of their species as well as orchids, roses, carnations, irises, lilies and many more flowers. As the season progresses, the emphasis shifts to different groups of flowers. It is a display of colors and an overwhelming perfume.Endless varieties of tulips can be seen most of the time, but the best time to view them is mid-April. Other flowers bloom again at a different time. However, the park is always a colorful sight. The flower shops in the park can actually mail flower bulbs to the U.S. for customers.The park is open only in the spring time. This year, you can visit from March 22 to May 23. The Keukenhof is open daily from 8 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Ticket office closes at 6 p.m. Entry is €16 for adults and €8 for children age 4 to 11. Keukenhof is easy to reach via the A4 (exit Nieuw-Vennep) and the A44 (exit 3 Lisse). Follow the Keukenhof s...

Today was the 7th Cycle of Herceptin and Perjeta. Sitting in a chemo chair, I asked a nurse, who was opening my medical record in a computer, if the CT result I took last week had arrived already or not. She said, " Yes, " so I asked her for a copy of the result. A nurse is not allowed to explain a result, but she can certainly make a copy.
In the three-page result, I started reading the last page where the impression was written.
- Stable 9mm right lower lobe nodular opacity.
- Scarring and volume lose at the posterior left lung apex likely represents sequela of postradiation change.
- Interval increase in size of aortopulmonic lymph nodes.
- ….
- ….
- ….
- …
Cancer woke up! At least 6 lymph nodes around the lungs have been growing.
The 5mm lesion in the liver was improved and besides the same possible abdominal varices just like the last finding in March, other organs and bones showed no remarkable changes. –Those are all relief for me.
I will see the oncologist next Wednesday and hear more about the result. Yet I am sure that my remission is over. For the last two years, I was hoping that I was cancer-free, but instead, cancer was just sleeping and now it's awake and active again, I guess.
I changed to the current regimen in January 2014 due to some side-effects of T-DM1. I knew that although Perjeta was an excellent drug, without an additional chemo drug, a combination of two antibody drugs (Herceptin and Perjeta) works less than 20%, but I chose the regimen because I wanted to rest my body from all side effects. Now I have to change the regimen again quickly. I feel like I had a fall and have to climb up all over again a giant steep mountain, which I thought I saw the top almost.
May the Lord lead me to the right medicines and to the miracle again!

ECRI Institute Lists Antimicrobial Copper as a Top 10 Technology to Watch in 2014
Patient care research institute highlights Antimicrobial Copper in annual Hospital C-Suite Watch List
Jan 24, 2014, 09:00 EST
NEW YORK, Jan. 24, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- A U.S. based non-profit health organization dedicated to researching the best approaches to patient care has listed Antimicrobial Copper as one of the top 10 technologies to watch in its 2014 Top 10 Hospital C-Suite Watch List.
Copper earned this distinction from the ECRI Institute less than one year after a groundbreaking study found that copper kills bacteria and reduces infections. The report was published this month.
ECRI Institute has been evaluating the safety, effectiveness, and cost-effectiveness of health technologies for more than 45 years. The 2014 Top 10 Hospital C-Suite Watch List serves as a reference guide for both hospital leaders and the public on upcoming noteworthy health technologies or health systems issues each year. It is available to them as a service, free of cost.
"With this Watch List, healthcare leaders can learn more about potential game changers and use it as guidance when devising strategic growth plans for their facilities," said Robert Maliff in a recent press release written by the ECRI Institute. Maliff serves as the director of applied solutions for the organization.
While copper's antimicrobial properties have been known for thousands of years, recent research piloted by the Copper Development Association (CDA) and funded by the Department of Defense proved that surfaces made from Antimicrobial Copper alloys like brass and bronze had 83 percent fewer bacteria on average compared to surfaces made from traditional materials.
"Our research shows how important Antimicrobial Copper can be when it comes to increasing patient safety," said Wilton Moran, project engineer at CDA. "These surfaces don't rely on human behavior—they serve as an extra layer of protection, constantly working in the background to fight bacteria in between routine cleanings."
A 2013 study published in the journal of Infection Control and Hospital Epidemiology revealed that the use of Antimicrobial Copper surfaces in hospital rooms reduced the number of Healthcare Associated Infections in the Intensive Care Unit by 58 percent. The study also found that Antimicrobial Copper surfaces destroy strains of bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics, including the superbugs MRSA and VRE.
The List notes "Antimicrobial Copper is the only hospital touch surface with a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) public health registration, allowing manufacturers to claim that copper surfaces can kill specific bacteria…that cause infections and pose a threat to human health." There are many Antimicrobial Copper alloy options available spanning a range of colors and engineering properties. EPA-registered Antimicrobial Copper alloys can be incorporated into a wide variety of components, including:
- Bedrails
- Handrails
- Door handles
- Grab bars
- IV poles
- Trays and carts
- Sinks and faucets
- Lavatory components
- Work surfaces
- Computer keyboards
- Equipment adjustment knobs
- Call buttons
- Face plates and more
Interested in learning more about introducing your hospital to Antimicrobial Copper? The 2014 Watch List includes a section on 'What To Do' to get started. ECRI Institute's 2014 Top 10 Hospital C-Suite Watch List is available for download at www.ecri.org/2014watchlist (registration required).

About the Copper Development Association
The Copper Development Association Inc. is the market development, engineering and information services arm of the copper industry, chartered to enhance and expand markets for copper and its alloys in North America. Learn more on our blog. Follow us on Twitter.
About Antimicrobial Copper
* Laboratory testing shows that, when cleaned regularly, Antimicrobial Copper surfaces kill greater than 99.9% of the following bacteria within 2 hours of exposure: MRSA, Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococcus faecalis (VRE), Staphylococcus aureus, Enterobacter aerogenes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and E. coli O157:H7. Antimicrobial Copper surfaces are a supplement to and not a substitute for standard infection control practices and have been shown to reduce microbial contamination, but do not necessarily prevent cross contamination; users must continue to follow all current infection control practices.
EPA approval for public health claims. In the U.S., after many years of research, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has registered more than 400 copper based alloys, such as brass and bronze, as public health antimicrobial products. Antimicrobial Copper is the only class of solid touch surfaces registered by the EPA to continuously kill bacteria that cause infections and pose a risk to human health.
Copper is the active, microbe killing ingredient. Antimicrobial Copper isn't just pure copper. It's shorthand for a host of copper based metals (or alloys) that can go head-to-head with stainless steel in terms of strength, durability and aesthetics. In addition to their antimicrobial properties, copper alloys are:
- Durable & recyclable
- Wear-resistant
- Can stand up to harsh environments
- Can retain details and finish over time
- Available in a range of colors
