Well over a decade ago I sat in a doctor's office to discuss the surgical procedure that I'd had under general anaesthetic to remove the gnarly endometrial tissue that was in my womb. The most discombobulating side effect of the anaesthetic was that it catapulted me 'out of my body' and despite my best efforts I was unable to get back in. Thankfully a lovely friend who was also a wonderful massage/energy therapist worked her magic and helped me to step back into my body and feel like myself again.
So in our post-operative discussion when the doctor said, "We don't know what causes endometriosis and we don't know how to prevent it. So when it comes back we'll just do this procedure again."
The internal part of me that was still feeling traumatised screamed, "THE HELL WE WILL!!!"
And with that I left her office hell bent on educating myself about endometriosis and finding a way to prevent it. I found a wonderful Chinese Medicine practitioner who knew all about endometriosis, exactly what was causing it and more importantly how to stop it coming back, which it never has.
I have some great friends and clients who are wonderful and enlightened doctors but in many cases what we call western, modern or allopathic medicine is often focused on combating the symptoms of an illness or disease as opposed to getting to the underlying cause. I prefer to get to the root of things.
So in February when I still couldn't shake off the last vestiges of the flu like virus that I had at the start of the year, I knew I needed some help to get to the root of the problem. Serendipitously I was introduced to an Ayurvedic Doctor, who lives and works, right here, on the mountain. Let's just say I really felt that the Universe had my back!
During my appointment which lasted 90 minutes, he explained to me what was happening in my body and why. What was causing it to be inflamed and bloated and most importantly what I could do about it.
The 'prescription' he gave me included:
- A list of food and spices to avoid for a while until my body became less 'hot' and 'irritated'.
- A list of food, spices and medicinal herbs to help restore balance to my body.
- A yoga posture and two breathing exercises to get my digestive system working and to help my body 'cool' down.
- An essential oil to be massaged into my feet (by my husband!!!) to reduce inflammation.
- Strict instructions that I was to stop putting other people's needs before my own.
- And an even stricter instruction to laugh more!
I cried.
Because I felt seen.
And heard.
And I felt that he really did understand.
And he said out loud the things my body knew but that my head really didn't want to hear.
And I knew that I was cared for.
And that he understood the root of the problem.
And that I was going to be ok.
Three days later the bloating was gone. A week later the inflammation was abating and my energy was starting to return. That was 6 weeks ago. My daily routine of herbs, yoga and breathing exercises and eating new types of delicious food etc. has turned into the most beautiful and gentle self-care ritual. And it has really reminded of what it is to care for myself whole-istically, body, mind and soul.
He looked at the 'all' of me and when I made the subsequent changes they affected the 'all' of me, the all of my life. I had a desire to engage in my relationships again (all be it in a slightly different way), to get back to work, and do some planting in the garden and to recommence writing a book that I had started some months ago.
One of the most important life lessons I have been reminded of on this journey back to wholeness is that whether we are doctors, nurses, social workers, parents, therapists, shamans or accountants it is so important to be fully present with our clients, our friends, our families and to meet them where they are at. In doing so we can hear what needs to be heard and then provide them with the wisdom and support they need to make empowered decisions and choices.
When I left that doctors office all those years ago I really didn't know what to do or how. When I left the doctor's office 6 weeks ago I knew exactly what I had to do, but it was up to me to do it. What a precious and empowering gift that was.

(If anyone can explain what is going on in this photo, we'll give you Carmen Valentina's digits.)
After Edson Barboza's spinning heel kick KO over Terry Etim gave birth to the phrase "falling tree" knockout here on CP, we got to thinking, what other classifications of devastation existed in the MMA highlight-o-sphere? Debates got heated, egos got crushed, and limbs got mangled, but we were eventually able to agree that the next category of KO's in need of appreciation was that of the "lawn chair."
What is a "lawn chair" knockout, you ask? Well, it's that special kind of knockout, perhaps the complete opposite of a "falling tree," in which the victim's legs give out from underneath them almost instantaneously after the lethal blow is delivered, often forcing their body to collapse into itself like that of a common lawn chair. And to add insult to injury, the poor son of a bitch often receives an unnecessary strike courtesy of his own knee on the way down. Here are nine of the finest examples, in no particular order.

(AP) — Travelport Ltd. Said Tuesday that a federal judge tossed out most of American Airlines' antitrust lawsuit against the flight-information provider and online travel agent Orbitz.
Travelport, which owns nearly half of Orbitz, said the judge dismissed American's claims that the company monopolizes distribution of airline fare and flight information to travel agents.
American said, however, that the judge allowed its main antitrust claims to proceed. The ruling was issued by a U.S. district court in Fort Worth, Texas, where American is based.
Along with its stake in Orbitz, Travelport runs other companies called global distribution systems that provide airline information to travel agents. American wants to provide information about flights directly to travel agents and cut out the middleman in many cases.
The outcome could change the way airline tickets are sold to business travelers, who are more likely than vacationers to use a travel agent.
American argues it can tailor information more to business travelers' needs — for example by sending them offers about destinations or amenities that they've bought before. The distribution companies claim that American wants to push them out of the way and reduce competition.
American, a unit of AMR Corp., filed the antitrust lawsuit against Travelport, Orbitz and another distribution company, Sabre, in April.
Travelport said Tuesday that the judge dismissed four of American's claims, including that Travelport monopolized distribution of flight information to travel agencies and conspired with travel agencies to control ticket distribution.
Atlanta-based Travelport predicted it would win on the one remaining American charge — that Travelport monopolizes access to travel agents who subscribe to Travelport's services.
American claimed that the judge's ruling would let it go ahead with claims against Sabre, and separate claims "that Sabre and Travelport each has unlawfully monopolized the market for the provision of airline booking services to their respective subscribers."

Mountain Bluebird
This morning I set out to find the Mountain Bluebird that has been present in the Calverton area for approximately a week. There were a few other birders who were out there as well which helped because one of them located it along the fencing at the Haunted House on 25A and alerted me to it. While the bird didn't come nearly as close as I'd hoped, it was still a pleasure to photograph this rare visitor from the West.
Since I was out and about I figured I'd try and see if anything else of interest was around. Some time at EPCAL produced a flock of Eastern Meadowlarks and a handful of Savannah Sparrows - but there were some raptors as well. Two Red-tailed hawks were perched in a tree next to each other, Northern Harriers were hunting near the runways and a couple American Kestrels were seen including this one which was a bit more cooperative than usual.
In addition to the above mentioned birds were a couple male Eastern Bluebirds (which were far more attractive than the drab Mountain Bluebird). Another Red-tailed hawk was spotted on a light pole in Aquebogue, and I had time for a brief visit to the new North Fork Preserve Suffolk County Park which yielded a Red-tailed hawk being chased by a Cooper's. All in all a nice cold winter day with some raptors and a species of bird that's new to me.

Board of Regents to meet in Fairbanks next week
Room 109 in the Butrovich Building will be the gathering spot for the two-day Board of Regents' meeting next Thursday and Friday, Dec. 9 and 10, in Fairbanks.
Statewide employees may be interested to know the board will consider tuition rates for Academic Year 2013 and hear an update on UA employee health-care costs. The public may testify before the board at 10 a.m. on Thursday or 9 a.m. Friday. Public testimony is limited to three minutes per person.
On tuition, President Gamble is proposing a 7 percent increase to all undergraduate tuition rates, both in-state and out-of-state; and a 3 percent increase in graduate rates, both in-state and out-of-state. The proposal, which wouldn't go into effect until fall 2012, comes after weeks of meetings of an advisory task force on tuition and affordability that included the Coalition of Student Leaders, staff and faculty representatives.
The student coalition had proposed the 7 percent increase back in September, when the board considered a 10 or 12 percent hike in tuition but delayed action. This new rate appears to have the support of student government leaders.
Tuition revenue does not cover the full costs of an education at UA. As with other public schools, the State of Alaska heavily subsidizes the in-state costs so that Alaska students can afford to attend college or workforce training programs. The state, through intent language last year, requested the university reduce its reliance on state funds, which means other sources of revenue must make up the difference. The university also is continuing to look for ways to trim costs and find efficiencies internally.
Also on the board's agenda is the following:
- Total project cost approval for the UAF Energy Technology Facility Phase 1A, not to exceed $4.7 million;
- Formal project approval for Prince William Sound Community College renewal and wellness center improvements, not to exceed $5 million;
- Formal project approval for the Auke Lake Way project at UAS, not to exceed $4.2 million;
- Deletion of a bachelor's degree in statistics at UAF, which is now an option available within the mathematics program (a master's degree in statistics continues to be available as well);
- Approval of the 10-year capital improvement plan, which attempts to look out 10 years into the future and plan for capital needs throughout the UA system. The 10-year plan puts deferred maintenance and renewal/repurposing projects as the highest priority;
- Approval of a campus student government fee proposed by the Kuskokwim Campus in Bethel;
- A report on audited financial statements;
- A report on development efforts systemwide;
- A report from UA Foundation Chair Mike Felix;
- An update on the Academic Master Plan from Faculty Alliance Chair John Petraitus;
- Election of officers for the upcoming year, and the setting of the meeting schedule for 2012;
- And resolutions of appreciation for Regents Erik Drygas and Cynthia Henry, for whom the December meeting is their last. The governor is expected to appoint two new regents prior to the next meeting in February.

Comments from the Spring Lake Neighborhood Association
Compiled by SLNA President, Janet Bonet 4/29/2014
First, we feel there are far more trees and shrubs being removed that should have been counted as part of the
replacement equation. It is the current thick canopy that is so important for the birds and we hope that the plantings
done in the pond construction area will be finished in such a way that the birds will have as thick a canopy again so they
return and thrive. We had nesting pairs of hawks and owls in the pond area for decades and it would be a shame if we
never see them again. The Neotropical migration of grosbeaks, crossbills, orioles, and others is a wonderful part of living
on the edge of a thickly forested park.
The Spring Lake Neighborhood Association has been trying to get some beautification done on the southwest and
northwest corners of the intersection of 13th
Avenue from 13th
We are requesting that some of the trees/shrubs that have to be removed for the pond project be replaced in this
Missouri Avenue segment. The neighborhood association had worked with a landscape architect a couple years ago but
we did not like or approve the design she came up with and she was unable to meet with us and change it before she
moved to another city. The association would like to work with the Omaha Parks Department to come up with a simple
planting plan that allows for some shade trees and tall shrubs (for hiding the cement wall on the southwest corner) to be
placed in the mentioned areas.
The hill between 14th
horrible from spring to fall. The wildflowers that were planted in the space between the access road and Missouri
Avenue are mowed each time they are just starting to bloom so we never have been able to see them be anything but
chopped off. Though they do survive drought better than turf even if we never see them in bloom.
Beautifying this area will help to put a really nice finishing touch to the replacement plantings to be done in the rest of
the park.
We support the plantings for Lynch, Deer Hollow and the area south along 13th
that the area around the 13th
importance of the intersection as a gateway to Omaha. A number of trees were lost in that area when the bridge was
redone and the pond project replacement trees offer an opportunity for regaining some shade there. Doing so will
relieve the neighborhood association of the difficult task of scraping together funding to beautify these corners. We
hope that the City and CSO contractors will work with the neighbors on improving the corners.
The area in the park where three trees were lost to severe winds several years ago along the "J" Street right-of-way from

should be replaced in that same area.
As part of the park overhaul, it will be important to get a qualified arborist into the park to schedule and carryout proper
trimming of the trees throughout the park – with minimal removal.

There have been several questions about what the planting plan is for the replacement of trees removed along Spring
Lake Drive from "I" Street to 13th
of 13th
Street. It was a real shame that the sidewalk was not moved farther away from 13 street to create the space for
snow mounds without blocking pedestrian access to the sidewalk. If that sidewalk along 13th
work, can it please be moved west to make pedestrian access to the sidewalk safer year-round? And can there please be
a sidewalk added to complete the walking/biking trail between "I" Street and 13th
It is essential that these illegal dump sites be cleared before the park pond project is completed. It only makes fiscal
and logistical sense for these areas to be cleaned out while the heavy equipment can be used before plantings, parking
and trails are installed. Douglas County is supposed to be in charge of illegal dump sites and hopefully they have been
included as a partner in the effort to clear the decades of trash left by careless people.
In the past, the neighborhood association in conjunction with Keep Omaha Beautiful and OPPD did some tree planting in
the park. Most of the trees died due to lack of watering. Given the tough weather – wind storms and drought, it will be
essential that the replacement trees and shrubs be put on a watering plan that is respected and fulfilled. There are fire
hydrants all around the park that could supply the water but the contractors will need to be very careful how they open
and shut off the water flow so as to avoid burst pipes such as the incident that happened on 14th
years ago.
You can walk around the trees in the south end of the park now and see the consequences of careless mowing. Trees
planted now must be respected by the mowing crews. Those huge mowers may make quick work of mowing a park but
the bigger the mower, the more likely the damage to trees. A wider and thicker mulch band around the trees should be
possible with all the trees being cut there is a huge amount of mulch that will be available. Can it be used in the park as
The messy clear-cut done along "F" Street caused quite a knee-jerk reaction among neighbors and those who use that
route. We had been told there would be no work done south of "F" Street until a later phase of the project. We were
expecting three water feature "eco-zones" from this pond project. The wetland, the pond and the stream environments
which would offer excellent and unique opportunities for public enjoyment and environmental education. It is the
very real desire of the park neighbors and visitors that this original concept be followed through as the project moves
forward. If there is any engineering magic that can be worked where the stream south of "F" Street can be kept intact,
that is the preferred option. IF there is really no other option – after real study has been done and creativity tapped –
then please pipe-up only as small a portion of the stream as possible and be sure the ends of the pipe are made to seem
to be "natural" and not sewer-like.
In a meeting with John Royster and Ned Tramp, I mentioned that the sidewalk along F street is substandard and that if
there are no trees and shrubs to demarcate the edge, then pedestrian safety has to be considered and a fence of some
kind should be placed along both sides of F Street. There needs to be some kind preventative measure as well that will
ensure the buttress is not used as a trailbike route or as a sledding slope. Any treeless slope is open game for sledding.
Thank you to the design team for protecting the little Eden in the ravine just north and west of F Street. It is a really
charming spot and many small birds do use the area for water, food, shelter and nesting material.

Wrangling data sources into one cohesive report can be a huge challenge, especially if you have to create reports weekly or monthly. There are a number of very pricey services that support this type of work, but do you really need to pay hundreds, and in some cases, thousands of dollars a month, to do it? The short answer is no.
Google's Data Studio is free and open to anyone with a Google account. I've been using it for just about a year now to track a slew of marketing activities each week, and the results are impressive. Before we tackle the basic steps of getting started, let's talk about why a data visualization program can improve your workflow and, more important, how it can lead to a better understanding of performance.
We are overwhelmed with data. According to researchers at MIT, the amount of data that crosses the Internet every second is greater than all the data stored in the Internet just 20 years ago. The purpose of data visualization is to simplify data values, detect patterns, communicate important concepts that lead to action. Visualizations are the easiest way for our brains to receive and interpret large amounts of information. And you don't need a degree in computer science to generate them — or a big budget.
A picture is worth a thousand words, and in this case, a picture is worth a thousand lines of data. If you're not using a visualization tool, reporting can be an onerous task. You may have multiple sources of data, say Google Analytics, social media platforms, Salesforce, and internal reports generated from multiple departments — the list could be very long.
For each item you're tracking, you likely have a spreadsheet inside Office or Google. You make pivot tables to aggregate data. You make charts, tables and graphs and export them to your report. Some of your service may provide their own dashboard online, which may look really good, but all you can do is take a screenshot for your own report. It's a lot of cutting and pasting, and each week you'll start with new sets of data and repeat the process. While you're spending all of this time creating your report, important patterns can be missed.
Enter Google Data Studio, which acts as a warehouse for all of your source data. Because this is a Google product, it includes some "connectors" that will generate charts automatically from Google products, including Analytics, AdWords, YouTube. There is also a connector marketplace that provides additional connectors for social media platforms, Amazon sellers, some email programs and others. But you may not find what you need because it's internal company data or a some other product. That's where your spreadsheets come in and these will likely be your most frequently used data sources.
To use spreadsheets, you must put them in Google Drive. If you are a Microsoft Office user, you'll need to copy and import your spreadsheet to Google Drive, which is a easy process—just drag and drop. I recommend setting up a new folder to house all of your spreadsheets for your report. While you can bring in a new spreadsheet for each reporting period, it's much more efficient to create master spreadsheets for all reports that include a timestamp or date. This way you will avoid adding a new data source. You can simply add a data filter and adjust as needed. You will be able to quickly update your visualization for a week, a month, a quarter and for the full year. And that's the beauty of a connected report: you can look at any period at any time by adjusting this filter. Further, one data source can be used for multiple visualizations by changing the dimension. A dimension corresponds to the fields in your spreadsheet.
To get started, open Google Studio and create a new report. On the top of your screen, you'll see icons that represent the different types of visualizations you can create, including the standard options like bar charts and pie charts, plus maps and what Google calls a scorecard. Scorecards are useful for showcasing one piece of data such as the total number of products sold. Once you've selected your graphic, you will use the menu on the right to create it. First, select your data source. This will open a new panel where you can select Google Sheets and then your spreadsheet. Make sure the spreadsheet is open in a new tab. Data Studio will then ask you to review the fields. Here it is imperative that you have a way to count the data—each record must have a unique identifier such as an order number. If your data does not have one, go back to your spreadsheet and add a new column called ID. You can fill this is with consecutive numbers.
Once you get the hang of it, you'll find Data Studio is easy to use, especially compared with other methods. What once took my team two days to prepare, now takes about two hours.

Hendrick Hertzberg has a great item in the latest New Yorker that touches on many points, including the right-wing's new habit of issuing constant dire warnings that we're about to plunge into the sort of social democratic dystopia pictured below:
After the Senate passed the stimulus, which Sean Hannity, on Fox News, denounced as "the European Socialist Act of 2009," Mitch McConnell, the Senate Republican leader, pronounced it "a dramatic move in the direction of indeed turning America into Western Europe." Whether or not greater income equality, better health, and fewer prisons would really be a dystopian nightmare, McConnell's vision of "the Europeanization of America" has already come true in a way that bears directly on the question of "bipartisanship": what might be called America's parliamentary parties have come to resemble their disciplined European counterparts. As recently as the nineteen-sixties, for reasons of history and origins, the Democrats were a stapled-together collection of Southern reactionaries, big-city hacks, and urban and agrarian liberals; the Republicans were a jumble of troglodyte conservatives, Yankee moderates, and the odd progressive. Ideological incoherence made bipartisanship feasible. The post-civil-rights, post-Vietnam realignment, along with the gerrymandered creation of safe districts, has given us — on Capitol Hill, at least — an almost uniformly rightist G.O.P. and a somewhat less uniformly progressive array of Democrats.
In a followup item on his blog, Rick says "[t]he problem is, too many Americans have actually been to Western Europe, and it didn't scare them."
I'm not sure this is right. I suspect that only a distinct minority of Americans have been to Europe. What's more, the minority of Americans who've been to Europe are disproportionately drawn from the upper-echelons of the U.S. income distribution. And rich people have it pretty good here in the land of the free. By contrast, take a look at a "bad" neighborhood in Helsinki and compare it to a "transitional" neighborhood in DC — to say nothing of a genuinely down-and-out American ghetto — and it's almost laughable. But the beneficiaries of something like that aren't going to Europe. Among what you might call America's "traveling class," the European alternative is going to look good to city-loving cosmopolitans (i.e., me and Rick Hertzberg) but pretty bad to your typical businessman. In other words, it just replicates the cultural divide that already exists among the American elite. The people who would be the main beneficiaries of a more social democratic policy dynamic — a couple of non-college parents who could really use some free child care and and guaranteed health care and pension, for example — are relatively unlikely to have personal experience that cuts one way or the other regards to how terrifying Europe is.

Duane Owen did not implicate himself in the brutal slaying of a Boca Raton mother right off the bat.
Instead, a detective said, Owen began their conversation with a series of hypothetical questions.
By the end of the discussion, Owen was predicting he would be found guilty of the May 1984 murder because he did not have an alibi.
``He started off by asking if John Doe was looking in this lady`s bedroom window and saw her sleeping and went in and murdered her, would that be first- degree murder,`` Boca Raton detective Lt. Kevin McCoy told a jury on Wednesday.
McCoy recalled the questions Owen asked shortly after Georgianna Worden was found dead in her bedroom.
By the end of that conversation, McCoy was convinced Owen was responsible for the bludgeoning murder and rape of Worden, 38.
Owen confessed in detail during a later discussion. The videotaped confession will be shown to the jury during Owen`s trial on charges of first-degree murder, rape and burglary.
Owen has been convicted of killing and raping Delray Beach babysitter Karen Slattery during a March 1984 attack. The jurors who heard Owen`s confession in that case recommended he be sentenced to die in the electric chair.
Palm Beach Circuit Judge Richard Burk has delayed sentencing Owen for the Slattery homicide until the current trial has ended.
Lawyers representing Owen in the Worden case say the 24-year-old drifter was coerced into confessing the crime by overzealous investigators.
Prosecutor Sandra Kabboush maintains Owen intentionally played a cat-and- mouse game with investigators before deciding to give himself up.
During the conversation McCoy described to the jury on Wednesday, Owen apparently was trying to understand what the consequences would be if ``John Doe`` admitted to killing Worden.
``He asked, `If John Doe pleaded guilty to this, would John Doe get life in prison or the electric chair,` `` McCoy said.

Healing Song - 'Held" - Written by Christa Wells and sung by Natalie Grant
September 20, 2011
Cheryl Darnell
Songs can bring incredible healing, and when a song is inspired by the Word of God, which is living and powerful, it can minister to a broken heart like no other words can. One such song was sent to me just after our son died. I will confess, it took me about 3 MONTHS before I even took the packaging off the CD. People grieve differently, and for me, I was just very silent for the first couple months. I didn't want to talk to anyone. I didn't want to read any books about grief. And worship- which had always been "my escape"- my place where I felt closest to the Lord- now was extremely painful. I didn't know if I really believed what I was singing anymore. How could I worship or praise my God in the midst of wanting to blame Him for my tragedy?
Then I heard this song. I played it by myself in my room one afternoon. And I wept. For what seemed like hours. I played the song over- and over- and over. The words consumed me- and became my own cry- my desperate attempt to find the God who promised to hold me as my life was shattered before me.
The song is "Held," written by Christa Wells and sung by Natalie Grant. You can find it on our website at http://sidsamerica.org/sids-resources/songs-for-comfort-and-healing.
The lyrics are:
Two months is too little
They let him go
They had no sudden healing
To think that providence
Would take a child from his mother
While she prays, is appalling
Who told us we'd be rescued
What has changed and
Why should we be saved from nightmares
We're asking why this happens to us
Who have died to live, it's unfair
This is what it means to be held
How it feels, when the sacred is torn from your life
And you survive
This is what it is to be loved and to know
That the promise was that when everything fell
We'd be held
This hand is bitterness
We want to taste it and
Let the hatred numb our sorrows
The wise hand opens slowly
To lilies of the valley and tomorrow
This is what it means to be held
How it feels, when the sacred is torn from your life
And you survive
This is what it is to be loved and to know
That the promise was that when everything fell
We'd be held
If hope if born of suffering
If this is only the beginning
Can we not wait, for one hour
Watching for our Savior
This is what it means to be held
How it feels, when the sacred is torn from your life
And you survive
This is what it is to be loved and to know
That the promise was that when everything fell
We'd be held
[Repeat Chorus]
Before you read on, listen to it, let the words sink in, and let God speak to your heart Himself.
Here's what I journaled about the song when I listened to it three months after my son died:
The 3rd line- 'They had no sudden healing.'
That is true, I think. I don't believe there is such a thing as 'sudden healing' in grief-- It is a long, slow, HARD process. A dear friend reminded me that "patience" is often used interchangeably in the Bible with the original word 'longsuffering' as a fruit of the Spirit. Patience, to me, means waiting for something. Longsuffering seems to involve much more-- pain and endurance over a long stretch of time....not exactly a fruit I'd be jumping at the chance to receive...but a fruit of the Spirit, nonetheless- and one which God is developing in me, not by choice but by circumstances completely and horrifyingly out of my control.
The 12th, 13th, & 14th lines- 'This is what it means to be held, how it feels, when the sacred is torn from your life, and you survive....'
I'm actually surprised that I didn't die the day my son died. My world and life were shattered- and through the blurring of my pouring tears, I couldn't possibly see any way I'd live through this. Jesus must have been holding me. The first few nights after Billy died, Bill and I took our Ambien pills and just cried and cried and cried and cried-- sitting in our bed with our moms standing beside each of us, holding us until the Ambien literally shut us down to sleep.
The chorus states another profound truth, too-- 'The promise was that WHEN everything fell'-- not IF everything fell-- 'we'd be held.'
I'm curious to know if the last part, where she sings, 'If hope is born of suffering....can we not wait, for one hour, watching for our Savior?' had some reference to Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane. Jesus asked His sleeping friends why they couldn't watch with Him 'one hour.' He prayed that 'the hour might pass' from Him, too. I believe God is saying that if we can wait 'our hour,' suffer 'our hour,' watching expectantly for Jesus, we WILL see our Savior-- and hope and promises that we would never imagine could come from such deep, dark sadness. "Seeing Him" will of course happen when we enter Eternity with him....but I believe we'll see Him....and His hope and promises- this side of Heaven, too.
Christa Wells, who wrote "Held", blogs about the stories behind her song. You can read these amazing testimonies at http://www.christawellsmusic.com/2010/06/07/283/. I think it will bring even more encouragement to you.

Pinkerton girls open lacrosse season in style
April 09. 2013 11:41PM
Pinkerton Academy of Derry's girls' lacrosse team is already off to a better start than last year.
"We opened our season last year 0-6," said Pinkerton head coach Rob Daziel after Erin Coutts scored six goals and added an assist in leading the Astros to an impressive season-opening 18-6 Division I victory against Concord in Derry Tuesday.
"We're still an offensive team, but more balanced than last season," said Daziel, noting his defense is led by seniors Allison Deyett, Madison Driscoll and Chevy Collins.
"We started last season with six losses, finished 9-9 and lost by two goals to Londonderry in the quarterfinals," said Daziel. "We return a young dedicated team. As for this season, I will be very disappointed if we don't end up with a winning record."
Pinkerton roared out to a 7-1 lead and took a 12-4 halftime advantage against the Crimson Tide.
Kennedy Daziel and Maggie McCarthy each contributed four goals and two assists to the winning cause while Mecaela Capozzo and Maggie Mulrennan each added two goals.
Grace Orzechowski and Adelaide Symmes each scored two goals for Concord.
Pinkerton remains home Friday to host Salem at 5 p.m. On Saturday at noon, the Astros will play host to Division II Portsmouth.

Tillakaratne Dilshan smashed his sixth century this year to give Sri Lanka a solid start in the crucial third and final Test against India here on Wednesday.
Dilshan made 109 as Sri Lanka, seeking a win to draw the series 1-1, battled a wicket with turn and bounce to pile up 366-8 by close of the opening day's play at the Brabourne stadium.
All-rounder Angelo Mathews returned unbeaten on a career-best 86 as the tourists grabbed the chance to have first strike for the only time in the series after skipper Kumar Sangakkara called correctly.
India, who won the second Test in Kanpur by an innings and 144 runs after the first match in Ahmedabad ended in a high-scoring draw, will dislodge South Africa as the top-ranked Test side if they win the series 2-0.
Off-spinner Harbhajan Singh picked up four wickets and left-arm slow bowler Pragyan Ojha two as the vintage stadium, hosting a Test after 36 years, laid out a sporting wicket to provide an absorbing day's cricket.
Dilshan, 33, dominated the day with 10 boundaries and two sixes in his 11th career Test century and the second in the series after making 112 at Ahmedabad.
"This is a very good Test wicket," said Dilshan. "There is something there for both batsmen and bowlers. It is not easy to bat on because of the bounce and turn.
"This is definitely one of my better innings, much better than the one in Ahmedabad because that was on a flat wicket.
"Our aim is to get 400 and put pressure on India. These conditions should suit Murali (Muttiah Muralitharan)," said Dilshan.
Dilshan anchored the innings superbly after a first-wicket stand of 93 in 20 overs with left-handed Tharanga Paranavitana, who made his highest score in the series of 53.
Harbhajan broke through 25 minutes before lunch when he forced Paranavitana to edge a catch to Rahul Dravid at first slip.
India hit back in the afternoon session with three quick wickets as Sri Lanka slumped from the lunch score of 117-1 to 213-4 by tea.
Sangakkara had scored 18 when he was caught down the leg-side by wicket-keeper Mahendra Singh Dhoni off Ojha.
Former skipper Mahela Jayawardene added 59 for the third wicket with Dilshan to lift the tourists to 187-2, when India slammed on the brakes with two wickets in four balls.
Jayawardene (29) hooked Shanthakumaran Sreesanth to fine-leg where Virender Sehwag took a smart catch, before Harbhajan had Thilan Samaraweera caught in the leg-trap for one.
Mathews and Dilshan put Sri Lanka on top again by adding 74 for the fifth wicket when the century-maker fell to a poor decision by umpire Nigel Llong.
The Englishman gave Dilshan caught at short-leg off Harbhajan even as television replays showed the ball go off the batsman's pad to Murali Vijay at forward short-leg.
Prasanna Jayawardene overcame Dilshan's setback by making a fluent 43 with six fours and a six during a sixth-wicket stand of 67 with Mathews.
Nuwan Kulasekara and Rangana Herath fell in quick succession, but Muralitharan kept Mathews company at close.
Six-star Dilshan leaves India chasing leather
Tillakaratne Dilshan smashed his sixth century this year to give Sri Lanka a solid start in the crucial third and final Test against India here on Wednesday.

A.I. Or In This Case Animal Intelligence
Animal intelligence may share the same abbreviation as Spielberg's 2001 movie A.I. however it is anything but artificial. A previous article, Animals and the Emotional Experience, delved into the fascinating world of animals and their emotions. The research regarding that topic exposed that animals feel and respond to emotion, which raises questions concerning other aspects of the animal mind; such as cognition and personality development. Does animal intelligence exist?
Austrian researcher, Pete Chernika, has studied animal awareness and divulges some interesting information regarding animal intelligence. He explains, "In experiments, for instance, dolphins appear to pass one consciousness test by recognizing themselves in mirrors. And dolphins also exhibit a keen awareness of the status and identity of other dolphins in their highly social groups… They appear to be able to envision themselves in relation to all these other animals and then act accordingly."
These actions show these adept animals have a very high level of intelligence. However, how do our domesticated pets rank in comparison on the animal intelligence scale? Research concerning obedience training supports the theory of animal intelligence due to the animal's ability to learn skills that require some level of natural understanding.
Leslie Irvine, Sociologist at the University of Colorado admits the value of dog training in understanding animal intelligence. She feels dog training "illustrates the ability of the animal to reason." Irvine continues, "You are teaching the dog to make a decision about a particular response. You can actually see the dog making up his or her mind, and they don't always do what we want them to do… The dog has to actually figure out which option has a better reward."
This quote points out animal intelligence when it comes to an animal's ability to analyze a situation, understand the relationship between the request and the reward, and than consciously choose its own course of action. B.F. Skinner conducted a series of experiments when it came to understanding human behavior in the nature of rewards and consequences. Basically Irvine acted as the Skinner for animals, concluding that an animal has a mind of its own, a personality. Can we say A.I. or Animal Intelligence?
When dealing with the topic of an animal's personality, it's easier to look at personality faults which need to be retrained. Popular show Dog Whisperer, features the training expertise of Cesar Millan. Millan encounters all sorts of odd animal behavior on his show and helps owners re-sculpt negative aspects of the pet's personality.
An episode entitled, "The Lady Is a Tramp," featured a case concerned a Dalmatian-German Shepherd mix named Lady. The owner of the dog, Karolynn Hill, "considers Lady to be the child she never had." Lady apparently felt the same way as she became very overprotective of her owner, not letting anyone near her. The animal's actions suggest the dog to have a possessive personality, which developed due to the dog's strong emotional connection to the owner.
Lady also had a very negative relationship with the owner's mother, Floriece, which Cesar addressed. According to the owner, "When Lady was young; Floriece got so fed up at her constant barking that she would bark back at her." Floriece admitted, "I could tell she didn't like it." Needless to say the dog became jaded and since then would constantly barks at Floriece.
This situation is very interesting. The dog was seemingly offended by the taunting and essentially developed a grudge against the woman; thus exhibiting another aspect of the animal's personality, as well as a personality clash with a human counterpart.
After Cesar was called to assist the situation, his training methods proved effective and the dog's personality improved- illustrating intelligence. The dog was made aware and understood that its actions were unacceptable through Cesar's reinforcement. Lady's story illustrates animal intelligence as well as the underlying personalities and emotions that are contained in our four legged friends.
Remember your pet does not "eat without pleasure, cry without pain, or act without knowing it," as French philosopher René Descartes once suggested. Your pet feels and acts accordingly; in a purposeful, decisive manner. When your pet refuses to do something, remember its been proven, there is, A.I. or animal intelligence out there.

I accept the T&C and Privacy Policy.
As an avid skier and snowboarder, I've spent many a winter vacation in the mountains. I've taken trips with my family, large groups, multigenerational groups and gone on couples' retreats — all centered around skiing and snowboarding. It's clear that these types of groups are a large part of travel bookings and, during the winter months, ski trips can play a key role in shaping vacations for clients. The West holds great opportunity — and great commissions — for agents whose clients want to take advantage of some of the best skiing in the country.
"There is great potential within families, organizations and Gen Xers," said Olga Ramudo, president and CEO of Express Travel. "Potential for corporate meetings also exists within a ski trip since you can schedule sessions early in the morning and after the slopes close, offering four to five hours of meetings per day."
Many resorts have clued into this potential and offer great deals for clients.
"One of the main things that we've seen in recent years is that resorts are using packages to entice visitors, including seasonal packages, hotel and ski packages," said Craig Bannister, public policy and communications manager at Colorado Ski Country USA, a not-for-profit trade association representing Colorado's 22 ski and snowboard resorts.
According to Bannister, now is the time to find great rates for the 2012-2013 season.
"The best time to find deals is in October when resorts begin to gear up for snowmaking," he said. "In recent weeks, we have begun to see these packages roll out."
Harry Peisach, president and CEO of Ski.com and SellSkiVacations.com, two websites that assist agents with creating and booking ski packages, agrees that now is the time to start contacting clients about their plans for the winter.
"Many book-by deals expire as soon as Oct. 15," he said.
Peisach also pointed out that some destinations have limited air availability.
"Air seats can sellout in some of the more attractive resort destinations and with some of the most attractive deals," he said.
Know the MarketWhen targeting clients for ski vacations, one of the most important things for travel agents to do is understand the market, know what's out there and know what your clients' needs are.
"Make sure you know the product and the ability of the customer as it relates to ski levels," said Ramudo. "Ask clients if they are a beginner, an intermediate or an advanced skier. According to this information, choose the mountain that best fits their ability."
For example, according to Ramudo, Aspen, Colo., is more suitable for expert skiers but other resorts have great beginner slopes.
"The location of the resort is also very important," she said. "Do clients need to take a shuttle bus to take the kids to ski school in the morning? Do they need a ski-in/ski-out property with easy access to the slopes? Agent familiarization with the resort and mountain is a must."
For those who don't know the market as well, Peisach recommends that travel agents prequalify their clients using a list of questions offered on Ski.com. In addition, the company offers expert advice to agents.
"Our agents have an average of 23 years of experience," said Peisach. "We don't have a lot of turnover. Agents go through rigorous training and personally visit as many resorts as they can. They don't read off of a script. They truly understand the product that they are going to sell."
Product OfferingsWhile Aspen is good for experts, Breckenridge and Snowmass, both in Colorado, are known for their family-friendly options. Vail, Colo., and Whistler, B.C., are great for couples and are known for a variety of nightlife options. Heavenly Resort in Lake Tahoe, Calif., also appeals to a younger crowd.
"Heavenly is like the 'wild child' of Tahoe resorts and offers the most fun when the lifts stop turning," said Daniel Pistoresi, dispatch for Ski Lake Tahoe.
Finding products and packages is easy through associations such as Colorado Ski Country USA.
"ColoradoSki.com can act as a one-stop shop for agents," said Bannister. "They can visit the deals page and go from there to the resorts' pages."
Other sites, such as SkiUtah.com, Vail.com, SkiLakeTahoe.com, Ski.com and SellSkiVacations.com also offer good resources for agents.
Many of the packages are very inclusive — an aspect that is important to clients who don't want to constantly pull out their wallet while on vacation. Travel agents can find packages that include air, hotel, lift tickets, meals and more. Not only are these offerings good for clients, they are a great way for agents to boost commission.
"There are additional revenue streams in booking a ski vacation such as airport transfers, ski equipment, ski lift tickets and additional activities, including sleigh-ride dinners, snowmobile rides and more," said Ramudo. "These are all commissionable items."
For example, Crested Butte and Steamboat, which are more remote than other locations, partner with airlines and include transfers in their packages, according to Bannister.
SellSkiVacations.com offers 10 percent commission on most of its products and assists agents with designing customized packages. In order to use the site, agents only need a valid ARC or IATA number.
"We have 65 agents on the phone who can assist with booking," said Peisach. "We help them design the right package. Our agents will assist them with what they are looking for whether it is an adventure trip or a family vacation."
SellSkiVacations.com agents can personally assist travel agents with bookings, or they can book online.
"The travel staff can prepare the booking online, and we will look at it, make sure it makes sense, provide advice if necessary and then prepare the documents," said Peisach.
Commission on the entire trip, including ski rental, lift tickets and more, is automatically paid after travel and, whenever possible, SellSkiVacations.com pays commission on air.
"We will commission air if it's available," said Peisach. "We have access to products that agents might not be able to find or have access to. We have an incredible inventory. Travel agents can make the reservation and confirm the booking without having to make a phone call."
Whether your clients are traveling solo or in a group, the West is an ideal gateway for a ski vacation — especially when you have the right tools to sell it.
Colorado Ski Country USAwww.coloradoskicountry.com

Ski Lake Tahoewww.skilaketahoe.com
Ski Utahwww.skiutah.com
Ski.com recommends qualifying clients using the following questions:
What are your client's preferred travel dates or their window of opportunity for traveling?
What is the makeup of the party? (Family, couples, singles, etc.)
How many people are in the party? Are there any adults, children, teens, seniors?
What quality of lodging is the client interested in?
What else is important to your client when determining lodging? (Proximity to ski slopes, pools, Jacuzzi/hot tub, restaurant on site, spa, fitness center, fireplace, etc.)
What components would your clients like included in their package? (Air, vehicle rental, ground transfers, lift tickets, equipment rental, insurance, etc.)
What is your client's price point per person?
Where have they stayed before?
What level are the skiers (or snowboarders) in your client's party? Is there a mix of abilities? Are there skiers and snowboarders? Non-skiers? (Note: Some mountains do not allow snowboarding.)
What activities are your clients interested in doing besides skiing or snowboarding? (Dining, nightlife, shopping, ice skating, spas, etc.)

Kawneer doors are repaired by initially adjusting the door's closer latch and sweep. Adjust the door sweep by moving the main screw in the closer to bring down the speed during closing. Consequently, adjust the door latch by opening the door from minimum to maximum in one rotation. The door's largest opening angle is changed by checking the opposite opening of the door.
If the door poses a clearance issue, lift the door to ensure it is within the frame. This reduces the clearance, ensuring that the space between the door frame and the door remains within functional limits. The leap of the door can also be shimmed to fix operational issues, explains Kawneersphere.
Another failure of Kawneer doors is caused by malfunctioning components and parts of the door operation system. One of these units could be the adjustment rod. This rod ensures that the door opens and maintains the correct angles on both sides when opening and closing. If the rods are too short, a breakdown occurs. To correct this malfunction, jerk the rods, adjust the rods to suitable measurements and insert them back into the door. Kawneer Company provides the proper measurements for adjusting these rods, explains Kawneersphere.

The Neste Oil Performance Management Process plays an essential role in helping the Group attain its strategic goals and reinforcing its performance-driven mindset.
Excellent operational performance is based on setting challenging targets, executing action plans, reviewing progress, giving feedback, and measuring results and performance.
From a financial reporting point of view, Neste Oil's Performance Management Process consists of a monthly Management Reporting Process and a quarterly Performance Review Process. At Group level, results and information in management reporting and performance reviews are compared to strategic goals and business plans and to analyses and planned corrective actions throughout the year.
Business areas and common functions follow a similar approach, but emphasize a more detailed analysis and definition of corrective actions, as well as continuous improvement and prioritization of actions and development projects.

Hello everyone,
This note is the third in our series of Notices for the Golden Retriever Club of America 2017 National Specialty "Call for Gunners".
March Madness, Income Tax returns, blizzards, and snow shoveling are now upon us. Give yourself a break, have a snack, enjoy your favorite beverage, and watch the AKC safety video posted in Notice No. 2! We are very encouraged by the number of individuals who have already watched the video and whose acknowledgement constitutes their electronic signature. We even have one person in Alaska who has viewed the video, indicated that she intends to run a dog at the Master Hunter level, has gunned in prior hunt tests, and has offered to be a gunner at our National Specialty! We can't ask for much more than that!
The Potomac Valley Golden Retriever Club is hosting training and formal events between April and June. This is a great opportunity to refine your, and your dogs', abilities in the field as well as participate as a gunner.
These events and their dates and locations are:
• April 8, training day at Rovers Content, Cheltenham, MD.
• May 6, training day at Rovers Content, Cheltenham, MD. We will be using live pheasants in preparation for our upcoming WC/WCX tests. Ammunition to be provided by PVGRC.
• May 14, WC/WCX tests at Rovers Content, Cheltenham, MD. Live pheasants only. Ammunition to be provided by PVGRC.
• June 3/4, double Master, Senior and Junior Hunt Tests at Shady Grove Kennel, Remington, VA. Ammunition to be provided by PVGRC.
This is only a listing for the PVGRC. Checking the Entry Express website will provide you with a good listing of events being conducted in your respective geographical area during the next three months. Try and support other clubs in addition to your own when you are running your dog. I am sure that volunteers to help in the field will receive a warm welcome.
Now, go turn on that safety video!
