Former Altspace CEO Eric Romo joins Facebook as Director of Product for Social VR.
Eric Romo, who founded AltspaceVR in January 2013, will be moving to the role of Director of Product at Facebooks's Social VR team, the group behind Facebook Spaces.
Romo is joining Facebook as a product director, according to a post by Facebook's social VR team leader Rachel Rubin Franklin.
"Today the Facebook Social VR team is getting one avatar bigger! I'm incredibly excited that Eric Romo, founder and CEO of AltspaceVR, is joining us as a Product Director. Eric is a pioneer in the social VR space who shares our vision of building virtual reality with people at the center. He's spent years building virtual communities to bring people together around common interests and compelling content.
Eric joins a talented team filled with experts from the worlds of gaming, film, art, design, engineering, research, and more. Last year we took some early steps toward exploring what human connection can look like in VR, and we have ambitious plans to learn and ship even more this year. With lots to tackle in 2018, I'm thrilled to have Eric on board. VR has such immense promise to connect people in new ways, and it's only the beginning. Eric, welcome to the team."
In his own statement Eric looked forward to his future at Facebook.
"As I look back at my journey with AltspaceVR, I couldn't be prouder of what we accomplished. We built one of the first and most vibrant places to meet in VR — starting before the first consumer headsets even shipped! But it's really the community of passionate people that has grown around AltspaceVR that amazes me most, and continues to confirm my belief that being together with others in VR will revolutionize the way we connect with each other. It wasn't an easy decision, but I left AltspaceVR with confidence that the team is well-placed to continue pushing forward the promise of virtual communication as part of the Microsoft mixed reality ecosystem. I can't wait to see what they'll do next, and wish them all the best."

Love those Old Fashioneds.
Ryan Gosling is at his self-satisfied best here playing a ladies man with no shortage of pick-up lines. He helps out a recently divorced Steve Carrell, as he tries to get over the fact that his ex (Julianne Moore) would rather sneak away to see TWILIGHT, then hang out with him at home.
With the inclusion of Emma Stone, who appears to be the only one capable of withstanding Gosling's charm, the red-head quotient is very high here, which will only make me get to the theatre that much quicker. I usually tire of Carell's schtick, but the trailer has me intrigued. Also wasn't hurt with the addition of the Muse song 'Starlight.'

The heat wave is breaking, and with it, my sour mood. My worries and anxieties melted away with the heat, or at least the worst of them. It is still summer, and I am still a worrier, but the worst of it is over. There will be other heat waves, and I will have other crap moods, but they will both pass, eventually.
My aunt is coming to visit in mid-September, and my cousin will be here in October. Actually, two of my cousins will be here on two different weekends in October. And of course, my other cousin will be here this month for a show. There should be a list of cities he'll be hitting up on his tour, and I encourage you to check one out if you get the chance. I for one am planning on going to his house show in Brooklyn, even though I'll probably end up taking the subway back to Harlem at like 4am. Maybe I'll take a car service... look, the point is, go see Jeb's show! Wait, that's the most recent point, but the real bottom line is that I'm going home in a week to see some of my family, and I'll see even more of them in the following month or so, and for that, I am thrilled.
Eew, this is all so fucking cheesy. Earlier, my cat tried to step onto our makeshift coffee table from the couch and completely missed--little did she know I'd moved the table the night before for reasons that escape me! I went to The Strand earlier. I saw Sarah Vowell's new book and decided to find her previous book, The Partly Cloudy Patriot. I walked around for like half an hour, getting distracted by travel books and fiction (why is it they only have the Margaret Atwood books that I've already read?), eventually figuring out where the Americana section started and ended. I found Sarah Vowell's new book on the shelf and was mildly annoyed her old book wasn't there. I wandered back towards the front, where the bag check and the Best-selling Fiction table were, and sitting six inches away from the new book (Assassination Vacation? I can't quite remember, and I'm too tired to check)? A hardcover copy of The Partly Cloudy Patriot. I am so very observant.
The book is quite excellent so far. I think I'll be able to get a lot of reading done tomorrow, when I'm not working on research. It's my last Saturday at the lab, hopefully the last Saturday that I'll have to work for 10 hours for quite awhile. I'm going out to celebrate with two lovely people, and I'm finally buying a desk and a dresser on Sunday. Free bus to IKEA, that is a genius idea.

John 6:30-33, 35-40 MSG:
"They waffled: "Why don't you give us a clue about who you are, just a hint of what's going on? When we see what's up, we'll commit ourselves. Show us what you can do. Moses fed our ancestors with bread in the desert. It says so in the Scriptures: 'He gave them bread from heaven to eat.' Jesus responded, "The real significance of that Scripture is not that Moses gave you bread from heaven but that my Father is right now offering you bread from heaven, the real bread. The Bread of God came down out of heaven and is giving life to the world." Jesus said, "I am the Bread of Life. The person who aligns with me hungers no more and thirsts no more, ever. I have told you this explicitly because even though you have seen me in action, you don't really believe me. Every person the Father gives me eventually comes running to me. And once that person is with me, I hold on and don't let go. I came down from heaven not to follow my own whim but to accomplish the will of the One who sent me. "This, in a nutshell, is that will: that everything handed over to me by the Father be completed—not a single detail missed—and at the wrap-up of time I have everything and everyone put together, upright and whole. This is what my Father wants: that anyone who sees the Son and trusts who he is and what he does and then aligns with him will enter real life, eternal life. My part is to put them on their feet alive and whole at the completion of time.""
"Let us hold on to the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful." Hebrews 10:23 HCSB
Hold on to the promises God has promised you. But don't mock God, saying things like "show us what you can do then we'll commit." How dare we. "Prove yourself to us." Hasn't he already done that? Has he not died for us so that we may live? Has he not given us breath after breath? What are we searching for? God tells us in this scripture, search no more. "I am the bread of life." I am the answer to all of your questions. I am the solution to every one of your problems. Jesus tells us in the next few verses that if we will just run to him and cling to him he will never let us go. So why is that so hard for us to do. We're scared. Our human flesh is dominating our spirit. It's a hard battle that we wrestle with everyday. I know I do. But if it's that easy, just run to God hold on and don't let go, why not do it. Jesus says his plans are his father's plans and his father's plans are us. He wants us. You and me. Jesus is our connection. Our pathway from this life to the next. So I give my life to you God. Show us what you can do in us. Use us. Do a complete transformation. I give myself to you so than you can show the rest of the world what it is you can do with mankind. Here's my heart. Take it. Here are my ambitions and dreams. Take them. Here are my doubts and fears. Take them. Here's all I have. Take me. Show the world who you are God. Let the world see the great works of you. Do it in all of us. Let us all be examples of your work. Nothing else can compare. I may be mere human but my father is "The Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End." Revelations 22:13. I am unstoppable because of him. I can do all things through him. Allow God to use you. Don't question him, don't waste time. If you are to take any advice take this. Surrender. Surrender day after day, again and again. Don't stop giving yourself to God. My human flesh will not win over my spiritual flesh. I will fight that battle everyday. I will surrender everyday. You are a warrior for Jesus Christ. He is using you to make a difference. He is using you to change the world. You are a light of him, shine.

Update on necropsies at WADDL Puyallup (AHFSL) and Saturday shipment charges
Aug 1, 2018
WADDL Avian Health Lab (Puyallup) update about changes in shipping charges.
Temporarily, WADDL Puyallup (Avian Health & Food Safety Laboratory) does not have a pathologist on site to perform necropsies at our location. During this time, we will send our clients' birds and rabbits to the board certified veterinary pathologist at the WADDL Pullman laboratory for this service.
During normal weekday operations from Monday to Thursday, our laboratory will absorb this extra shipping cost. However for submissions on Friday require delivery to Pullman on Saturdays, there will be an additional shipping cost of $32 to cover the additional shipping cost of Saturday delivery.

Cabbage Rolls and Za'atar
Even though I never met her, Alexandra Mansour taught me how to cook the food of Lebanon. In fact, when I first found a copy of her book, Alexandra's Lebanese Cooking, I barely knew how to cook, let alone Lebanese food.
I found my copy at a Salvation Army store in the south end of Halifax in 1999. It was just sitting there in a bin full of random books. It wasn't the title itself which caught my eye, but rather the subtitle of the book: Authentic Recipes from a Nova Scotian Home.
Lebanese food was the first food I ever cooked with someone. His name was Andrew, and his family was from outside Beirut. He came over to my house and we made fattoush, and he made fun of me for making hummus with a mortar and pestle, rather than a food processor. By making and eating this food with him, and the rest of our friends, I learned about Lebanon, the people, the culture, the habits, the music. I wouldn't have even met Andrew if we hadn't started talking about food.
Years later, I met Valerie Mansour, a Halifax-based writer who has been the food critic for the now defunct Halifax Daily News. We started talking about food, and I mentioned Alexandra's Lebanese Cooking. Her face lit up. "That's my mom," she beamed.
(You can read a piece that Valerie wrote about her mother, here in The Globe and Mail. )
Valerie would later tell me stories about her mom, about what it was like growing up in Amherst, and how her mom's cabbage rolls became famous in the small town. It was a story that stuck with me, and reminded me of The Kitchen Sisters and their Hidden Kitchens. (Check out their podcast, Fugitive Waves. Go. I'll be right here.) And so I'd like to dedicate this episode of Assis Toi - as well as Have A Seat, which you can listen to below - to the Kitchen Sisters, Davia Nelson, and Nikki Silva, for helping me understand the significance of hidden kitchens, no matter what is being cooked in them. And thanks to Alexandra, who showed me how to eat, not only what to eat.

Several of you have emailed to ask how to silence that inner critic.
Here's what I do. I talk to myself aloud (honest). "Be patient. Let me get on with this. When I finish, I'll let you rip it apart."
Although I've often had to repeat the words several times, I've discovered that I can calm my judgmental voice. And it's fun to listen to that dark side of myself who revises and gleefully reminds me, "You wrote that poorly. I'll show you how to do it right this time."

That Pesky Internal Editor Is At It Again
5 comments:
You brought a smile and chuckle on that one!ReplyDelete
Thanks for this tip. I guess I should do a lot more talking aloud to myself!ReplyDelete
I like this idea. I think I want to give mine an ugly name too....maybe some warts too.ReplyDelete
I've heard talking to oneself is only a problem if you answer yourself back. :DReplyDelete
Cheers, Nancy J Locke
I just found this and have forwarded your blog address to a friend. She has written a truly different and wonderful book and is scared to send it off due to that Internal Editor. I think God sent me to your site today to find that for her.ReplyDelete

Crumbs Bake Shop had nearly 70 specialty cupcake locations at its peak between New England and Washington, DC, along with a consumer following that brought decadence to another level when experiencing the most unique flavored and largest single-serve cupcakes available. Crumbs Bake Shop challenged Brand Squared Licensing to reinforce the brand experience in consumables beyond the cupcake, along with introducing the brand in new distribution channels, so the brand could be enjoyed in new locations, new dayparts, and additional times per week.
Brand Squared Licensing developed a retail exclusive program with BJ's Wholesale Club, AND Target, that introduced Crumbs Bake Shop beyond the specialty locations for the first time – with crumb cake, ice cream cupcakes, croissant donuts, and of course the iconic cupcake which featured the identical flavor profile for which the brand was known, at significant price/value superiority. Target focused specifically on a Crumbs Bake Shop branded, exclusive bake mix assortment. Brand Squared Licensing also brought the brand into bakeware and novelty personal cosmetics.

Glass insulators have become obsolete for their intended purpose, with the introduction of more sophisticated technology and underground lines. They still exist in significant numbers, though, in antique stores and among collectors. Insulators can be used for light shades, suncatchers, salt and pepper shakers or other arts and crafts. Many of the crafts that use glass insulators require holes to be drilled in the glass, a specialized process that takes time and care.
Things You'll Need
- Glass insulator
- Diamond or carbide-tipped drill bit
- Drill press
- Putty
- Turpentine
- Personal protective equipment (gloves, eye protection, etc.)
Video of the Day
Use putty to make a circle, about 1/4-inch deep, around the area you intend to drill. Press the putty onto the glass. This needs to be watertight.
Fill the putty "dam" with turpentine. This will help keep the bit from getting hot and will reduce chipping.
Fit your drill with a glass-drilling bit (usually diamond or carbide) of the size you want the hole to be. You may be more successful if you use a small bit first, then work up to the size you want. This allows the bit to grind a bigger hole without putting extreme pressure on the glass.
Drill the hole. A drill press works the best because it will make a straight hole. Use constant pressure, but go slowly. Allow the bit to grind its way in gradually. Too much force on the drill will break the insulator.
Clean the putty and turpentine off and smooth any rough edges with a fine file.

Simple Explanation: SB 5930, introduced by Senator Guy Palumbo, would implement a carbon tax of $15 per ton, rising $2.50 per year to an eventual rate of $30 per ton. Imported electricity, agricultural fuel, and EITE's (energy-intensive, trade-exposed manufacturers) are exempt. There is a phase-in for residential natural gas and the electric sector. Electric utilities can redirect up to 75% of the carbon tax they owe to fund carbon reduction projects. The measure will devote $400 million to fund existing programs that are currently paid for out of the general fund, which would free up budget room for K-12 education. The remaining revenue is divided up between forest, water, low income, and carbon reduction programs. The measure also rescinds regulations on greenhouse gas emissions, such as the Clean Air Rule, in exchange for enacting the carbon tax. (more…)
Demonstrating Support for Legislative Action – Lobby Day April 20, 2017
ACT NOW will host a carbon tax lobby day in Olympia on April 20th to urge lawmakers to recognize urgency of climate change and the growing bipartisan desire for climate action. "There are three carbon pricing bills in front of the legislature that have the potential to resolve key funding challenges — while putting the state on a path toward cleaner energy and a better future for our children and grandchildren," says Carbon Washington's Kyle Murphy. "To let another legislative session go by without addressing the threat of climate change would be a lost opportunity."
Please join us in Olympia to lend your voice to this important effort. Click here to learn more and register for the event.
Kyle Murphy, Carbon Washington's executive director, and Dave Kozin, CFO of A&R Solar, have teamed up on an op-ed piece for Seattle Business.
In their essay, Kyle and Dave say "There's a growing bipartisan consensus that a carbon tax just makes sense. A group of national Republican leaders with the Climate Leadership Council, including James Baker and Hank Paulson, recently released a climate plan advocating for a carbon tax. Initiative 732, a carbon tax plan that went to Washington voters on last years ballot, was endorsed many leaders from both political parties. Recently, the Alliance for Jobs and Clean Energy, a broad coalition of Washington State social justice, environmental, and labor organizations, put forward a climate plan that includes a carbon tax. The legislature should borrow the best ideas from all of these policies."
Please join us on Thursday, April 20, for a carbon tax lobby day in Olympia (in honor of the upcoming Earth Day). This is organized in conjunction with ACT NOW (Advocates for a Carbon Tax NOW). ACT NOW is a growing coalition of volunteers and organizations that want to see a carbon tax pass this legislative session. If you are a part of an organization that would like to join the ACT NOW coalition, email firstname.lastname@example.com and let's chat! More than 12 organizations have signed on already (read the statement and signers here).
The latest research from Yale's Climate Change Communication Center tells us that most Americans believe that climate change is happening, but fewer think that it will harm them personally. Remember the old saying "a picture is worth a thousand words"? We think some well-chosen images will help hammer the message home, so we're holding a photo contest. (more…)

Ebola, the virus known as the death sentence strikes again.
WHO (World Health Organization) declared that the Ebola epidemic has died down. However many survivors are facing new challenges after being declared free of the virus in the blood. This is the case with Dr. Ian Crozier who ended up with a changed eye color after fighting Ebola.
Dr. Ian Crozier contracted the disease in Sierra Leone while serving in a hospital. He was treated for Ebola at the Emory University Hospital in September for more than a month. He survived a very ill condition and he was discharged from the hospital free of Ebola. Two months later he began having trouble with light sensitivity and a sense of burning eyes. His eye problems worsened and he returned to the Emory with severe pain in his eye.
Doctors stood in the face of a mystery, Crozier iris had turned green and he had almost lost all of his vision in his left eye. Ophthalmologist Dr. Steven Yeh did some diagnostic tests. He removed some fluid from his eye, and the fluid tested positive for the virus. The virus wasn't active thus it was not replicating. It was not present in the tear and in the outer membrane of the eye so there was no risk of spreading the virus. However it had done some damages in the back of the retina which were responsible for the observed symptoms, but the color change remains a mystery. Dr. Foster, a clinical professor of ophthalmology at Harvard Medical School, states that it can be due to a transformation in the metabolism of the iris cells, but he is not sure which exact metabolic change is involved.
At first, Crozier thought the problem resembled an immune-related complication after a virus infection. Some doctors think the reason may be in the so called "immune privileged" places which include the eye and the testicles. These two organs are separated from the immune system since the immune response might harm them, thus making them ideal places for the virus to linger.
As much as a mystery this may stay, Crozier was lucky. His vision and eye color returned to normal after receiving steroids and antiviral treatment.
Cases like this, where survivors face health conditions after contracting Ebola are not rare. In fact, it has been reported that in West Africa a lot of survivors deal with chronic pain, headaches, a lack of menstrual periods, fatigue, hearing loss and blurred vision. These conditions can be very hard to face after dealing hell with Ebola, but Crozier and other doctors believe that the more cases are identified the better their management will be.

In the car now....
We had a good time and it was fun using the fire pit and all that.. Now that its finished we have a place to get together for ages and ages. Its a good investment for the family.
Tonight we are crashing and sleeping.
Tomorrow is laundry. And last minute shopping. And packing and cleaning the apartment up so it is clean while we are gone because leaving a nasty house for days its just gross.
I am really enjoying getting involved in the IG planner community and listersgottalist people. I hope Cori (@theresetgirl) keeps hosting angst organizing stuff for all of us to do and communicate and share our little worlds.

"How to record internet radio? – What's the best way to record internet radio Mac? Thanks." By moosharoo from Apple Support Communities.
There are occasions that we need to record Internet radio Mac like recording wonderful music from a certain online radio station or recording streaming audio on Mac. Apple has provided no direct way for us to record radio stream Mac. So, is there any effective Internet radio recorder Mac or solution to record internet radio Mac? The answer is yes. This post would show you 2 internet radio recorders for Mac users to record internet radio Mac effectively.
Part 1: Record Internet Radio Mac with Quicktime Player
Though Apple has provided no preset solution for Mac users to record Internet radio Mac, Quicktime Player could actually complete this with the help of certain plugin called SoundFlower, a free Mac extension that allows programs to pass audio to other applications. It acts as an audio device, which allows programs to send or receive audio from it without any other support.
1. Download and install this Soundflower program by opening the .dmg file and following the on-screen instructions on your Mac computer.
2. Once Soundflower is successfully installed, visit the Sound tab in your System Preferences again. Click on "Soundflower (2ch)" on the "Output" section of Sound settings panel. Now your computer is outputting all of its audio through the Soundflower (2ch) extension. (The only downside is that you will not be able to hear audio through your speakers as long as this is selected.)
3. Now open Quicktime Player and click on File > New Audio Recording. Click the little arrow on the side of the Quicktime window. Under the microphone section, click on "Soundflower (2ch)". After that, click the red button and play internet radio to start recording internet radio Mac.
When you're done and you want to hear audio through your speakers again, go back to System Preferences>Sound>Output, and click on "Internal Speakers." Your audio will now play through your internal speakers again.

About a boy and a dog?
The space between them is hallowed ground.
No need to look, he is there.
Traveling up one road,
And trailing down the next.
Resting on his master,
Not the passers-by.
Waiting for a bit of kindness,
He reads his answer,
And from his big dark watery eyes,
Nothing comes haltingly.
But a readiness born of stillness,
To do the bidding of his charge,
The one he was placed on this earth for.
About a boy and a dog, affection.
It was ever thus.
—G. B. Congdon
11th April 2018
The wilderness is known in solitude. It is summertime in Idaho, 2006, and two brothers have been shipped off to work as ranch hands on a sheep ranch. Our youngest son, can't get his fill of the farm dogs, as his brother captures their sojourn in a serpentine landscape miles away from home. They're heading to the ridge for the sunset, going to do some dreaming, and scheming on life.

For a spead boat the greatest things about fractional aircraft ownership are even more compelling compared to what they are for property/real house. You can afford to have a bigger boat (or create the one in order to cheaper to own). Foods high in protein reduce the constant maintenance costs. Much more it to be able to afford to get the boat professionally maintained causing you to be free to relish using it rather than painting the application! All the accessories and inventory that build using a boat more enjoyable or safer can be a little more easily afforded if sharing the cost with many.
Now you will get the flexibility you need and choose. You can even choose the form of jet you charter. You can forget crowded equipment. No more airline schedules to con concern. No more having to seem hours early for your flight. Actually most jet leasing charter services will design a travel agenda for corporate or personal transport.

If tend to be new to Sergey Fort Lauderdale resident discusses strategy chartering, you could contact a charter company near which set up a flight journey. I have significantly better idea though – talk to a jet charter broker. Will certainly have rather a lot to gain by suggesting.
It looks like the recession for many, is a situation of care. When it's top of mind it's Armageddon, nevertheless it gets in the way of the best party, an evening meal with mates, or an explanation to feel better, it's forgotten. Who is really hurting?

A plane charter service is an excellent choice for company looking to reduce wasted time and funds. The only question that continues to be is which jet is it going to be ?

I regularly go to the Battersea car boot sale with a friend. We queue up for 45 minutes to be at the front of the queue to ensure we get first dibs. Once the gate opens we split up and rush around the stalls looking for the best bargains (my friend buys for his shop), leaving payment and listing all the stalls we need to return to pick up our purchases.
I have found some great bargains over the times I've been going. Last Sunday didn't seem to offer up much on first inspection. Then I spotted a plate, yes a simple plate, but one I recognised immediately.
I hadn't seen it in over 40 years as my grandmother had an identical one (back in my home country New Zealand), and used to serve her homemade lemon curd tarts on it for tea on a Sunday. It is nothing special, a Royal Staffordshire plate with a flowers and birds design, but it threw up a huge wave of nostalgia and fond memories of my beloved grandmother and those wonderful Sunday afternoons at her house. Weirdly, after all these years, I still love the design on this plate and the colours; I plan to use it rather than shove it to the back of a cupboard and I might even make a batch of lemon tarts!
Let me take the hard work out of sourcing the right furniture and accessories. Contact me to see how I can help.

"One For The Books" is currently available for stream on Spotify (http://spoti.fi/LmZbWW) and for purchase on iTunes (http://bit.ly/LmWzIR).
Watch the new video for "One For The Books" now on TheBoomBox.com:
Directed by Ben Guzman at Nova Entertainment, "One For The Books" celebrates late nights and early mornings with some of the most memorable hooks and choruses that make the track a serious contender for party anthem of the summer.
"The video is reminiscent of a late night out and just enjoying life to the fullest, being "always down" to do whatever, and taking chances," Zak Downtown tells TheBoombox.com. "To me the song is a reminder to have fun but work for it at the same time."
The video premiere follows Zak Downtown's recent release of two remixes of "One For The Books" by fellow NYU student Spadez and local NYC DJ Rick Wonder, which can be streamed on Spotify (http://spoti.fi/LmZbWW) and purchased on iTunes (http://bit.ly/LmWzIR).

Hero. What do you think of when you hear that word? Hero. Do you imagine the stereotypical, extraordinarily strong man in tights with a cape and a mask and underwear on the outside? What are some of the qualities that make someone a hero? What do heroes do? How does someone become a hero? Who can be a hero?
During our evening worships in the month of October, we studied a bit about the influences that we have over other people. We all have an influence over people, not only in our words, but also in basically everything we do. In order to do more than just talk about that influence, we took the next step and did something more. On Sabbath, November 8, we invited all the churches in our district to join us for an afternoon of heroes. We shared some stories of how ordinary people did something above the call of duty and became heroes. We shared ideas of how they can become heroes. We shared with them the call from God for each of us to be a hero. The beauty of it all is that anyone can be a hero. It does not matter if you have a professional degree. It does not depend on your bank account. In fact, there are not really too many pre-requisites for becoming a hero. One of the fundamental characteristics of a hero is to be willing to serve in any circumstance that calls for help. Most people want to be a hero because of their action in an extremely dangerous situation where the whole world looked on. But more than that, we have heroes in this world today because there are people who want to give of themselves in times and places where nobody sees. They have no shame to lower themselves to the feet of another to meet the need. Did you know that Jesus is calling each one of us to be a hero? God wants a hero that can kiss owies and wipe little, runny noses. He wants a hero that can carry groceries for an older gentleman. He wants you!
Have you ever considered Jesus to be your hero? Did it ever even cross your mind that what He did for you was heroic? As I study more and more the life of Jesus, I find out time and time again that He was more than just a man. He was a super hero. But more wonderful than that, He has inspired countless others to be heroes as well. He begs us to look around and see the needs of others. But don't stop there. The heroism comes when you not only see the necessities of others, but you move into action immediately. The call from God today is clear:BE MOVED BE A HERO

Felipe Massa is under severe pressure in 2012. The pace of Fernando Alonso is a clear sign that Massa is not getting the most out of his Ferrari, but he is not the only driver to be falling short of his potential this season. Nico Rosberg has been Mercedes' lead driver over the past two years but has been unable to take advantage of the team's stronger car in 2012.
Rosberg is a brilliantly talented driver, but there have been a number of particular incidents over the last two races that suggest his form is not as its peak.
Australian Grand Prix – Qualifying
Mercedes' pace throughout Friday practice in Melbourne was very strong and Nico Rosberg continued the impressive showing on Saturday when he topped the timesheets in Q2. For the first time in his career, Rosberg entered a qualifying session believing he had a legitimate chance of scoring pole position. He had qualified on the front row before (in Malaysia 2010) but that was an unexpected result in a rain affected session. The Australian Grand Prix gave Nico what he thought could his first shot at a genuine pole.
Perhaps that newfound pressure got to Rosberg in Q3. His first flying lap was scrappy, locking up at Turn 1, and he finished with a time that was good for only seventh on the grid. His second lap was also rough and did not improve on the first.
By contrast, Michael Schumacher has gone into hundreds of qualifying sessions expecting to fight for pole position. His two qualifying laps were excellent, the second of them being quick enough to give him fourth on the grid, three tenths ahead of Nico.
Given the raw speed that Rosberg has displayed alongside Schumacher over the last two seasons, he would have been upset with that margin.
Australian Grand Prix – Race
Rosberg made a great start in Melbourne and immediately jumped up to fourth place behind his teammate, but he was soon hunted down by Sebastian Vettel. Their ensuring battle suggested Rosberg's wheel-to-wheel racecraft was lacking in Australia.
On lap two Vettel drove around the outside of Rosberg through Turn 9. That isn't an overtaking place at the best of times, let alone around the outside.
It's worth noting that Vettel was in a quick Red Bull, and that his tyres were probably running at a better temperature, but even taking that into consideration there is the feeling that Rosberg could have put up a stronger defence. If he had been later on the brakes he might have been exposed to an attack from Vettel through Turn 10 and down the long back straight, but he never gave himself the chance of holding onto the position. He was simply outclassed by a better racer.
Several laps later Vettel ran off the road at Turn 1. Rosberg got a run on Sebastian towards Turn 3 and actually pulled ahead of the Red Bull. However, he gave Vettel so much space at the end of the straight that Nico proved to be no obstacle. Again, Vettel was in the best position to edge ahead, but the Rosberg didn't put up the strongest fight possible. You can be sure that if it was Michael Schumacher in that Mercedes he would have squeezed Vettel as much as he could down the straight to make him work for the place.
That's not to say Rosberg should drive like Schumacher, but that he could have done more to defend his position.
At the very end of the race, Rosberg was caught in an unfortunate incident with Sergio Perez where the two drivers tagged each other heading towards Turn 11. Although neither driver was specifically to blame for the light contact, it was the sort of thing some situational awareness could have avoided. It cost Nico a points finish.
Malaysian Grand Prix – Qualifying
Mercedes entered qualifying at Sepang even more competitive than was the case in Melbourne. As it turned out, the car was just two hundredths of a second off the front row so was definitely a front-runner in qualifying.
Rosberg only attempted one flying lap in Malaysia, but like his efforts in Melbourne he bottled it at the first corner. A huge lock up cost him time and he was never able to recover from a nasty flat spot. Again, Nico ended up three tenths behind Michael Schumacher.
Malaysian Grand Prix – Race
For the second time in seven days, Rosberg found himself in a wheel-to-wheel battle with Sebastian Vettel. For the second time in seven days he was beaten comfortably.
Sebastian was able to pass Nico quite easily around the outside of Turn 1 having used DRS down the main straight. Looking at this move by itself, there is not much that Rosberg could have done. He was defending his line on a damp part of the circuit and the attacking Red Bull had an obvious DRS advantage.
However, the following lap Kimi Raikkonen launched exactly the same attack on the Mercedes. This time Nico was on the brakes much later into the first corner and pushed Kimi wide. He fought for the position through Turn 2 and up the hill towards Turn 4. He still lost the place to Raikkonen's Lotus but he put up a much stronger fight.
The fact that Rosberg was so much stronger against Raikkonen suggested that he hadn't pushed Vettel as hard as was possible. It was the second time in seven days that Sebastian simply drove around the outside of him, and there are other drivers on the grid that could have put up more resistance given the opportunity.
Moving forward
Nico Rosberg is not under the same sort of pressure as Felipe Massa and nor is he under the same intense spotlight. However, the young German has not lived up to his enormous potential so far in 2012 and will want to start performing strongly before the other teams catch Mercedes. He is one of the most talented drivers in Formula One but will not do his career any favours if he is continually outperformed by his teammate.
Michael Schumacher is still one of the strongest drivers in Formula One, but Nico Rosberg can beat him if he uses his full potential. In China he will be hoping to do just that.

Seoul, South Korea – May 31, 2018 – Byun Hee-jae was arrested on May 30, 2018 in what many view as a desperate attempt to cover up the deception of JTBC and the prosecution after an expert witness from the National Forensic Service (NFS) exposed the blatant lies of Sohn Suk-hee, JTBC, and prosecutors by flatly contradicting their false claim that the NFS confirmed the identity of the user of the tablet PC as Choi Soon-sil.
According to Mediawatch.kr, Dr. Na Gi-hyun of the NFS testified in court on May 23, 2018 that NFS's forensic report does NOT specify Choi Soon-sil as the user of the tablet PC that according to JTBC, NFS "proved" to have been owned and used by Choi. When questioned who NFS concludes used the tablet PC, Dr. Na refused to answer the question, only saying that it should be determined by the court based on the forensic analysis. Dr. Na was the one who performed the actual forensic analysis of the tablet PC at NFS. Continue reading A Cover-up? Byun Hee-jae Arrested for Exposing Lies of Sohn Suk-hee, JTBC, and Prosecutors

World War II veteran and longtime St. Augustine resident Joseph Keenan received France's Legion of Honor Medal in a special ceremony held by the Greater Daytona Chapter of the 82nd Airborne on March 14.
The Consul General of France, Philippe Letrilliart, presented the award, which is France's highest distinction for non-citizens.
The award is given to recognize exceptional service to France.
"I wonder why I got it because I wasn't the only one there," Keenan said. "As far as I can remember, I didn't do anything that nobody else did."
Keenan's wife, Grace, said that is not exactly true. As a paratrooper in the 82nd Airborne Division in World War II, Keenan parachuted into Sicily, Italy and Holland in addition to the combat jump into Normandy on June 6, 1944.
"He made all four combat jumps in Europe, so he must have been good," Grace said. "I'm so proud of him."
Realizing the window of opportunity to recognize World War II veterans was closing, France began awarding the Medal of Honor about 10 years ago.
The medal is given to those who fought against the Nazis on French soil for their sacrifices and distinguished military contribution to France's freedom.
Keenan, who will celebrate his 91st birthday Thursday, was one of 22 servicemen who received the award at the March ceremony, which was held in Holly Hill.
Surprised by and humble about the recognition from France, Keenan said the GIs who fought in World War II had only one goal in mind - to stay alive.
"I did my best to keep the guy on the right of me alive and the guy on the left of me alive," Keenan said. "And those guys kept me alive."

Yesterday was another shopping day. We have an excellent cook who is sweet, funny and a delight to be around. Many regular travellers to Pune know and love Anita. Her charm is offset by forgetfulness, but is entirely forgivable. Anyway, we shop every couple of days or so for food for her to conjure deliciousness. The food is the centerpiece for us to discuss the days events, here and abroad. Hurricane Matthew is the main focus currently, so dear friends, know we are thinking of you.
The markets are within walking distance or tuktuk ride away. One surprise yesterday was a street cleaners cart that was a vacuum, hoovering up the street. The three of us stopped to photograph it much to the operators bemusement. Our excitement was that it was all electric! (Photos to come later – Indian internet not cooperating.) India has a several electric vehicle manufacturers that are doing well in foreign markets that are open to electric vehicles, motorcycles and it's exciting to see other applications.

Ask your pole dance questions in this search bar!
A no brand dance pole or commonly known as a "stripper pole" is basically a pole made for pole dancing and is not manufactured by one of the larger, more-known pole manufacturers such as X-Pole, Platinum Stages, Lupit Pole, or Lil Mynx. These are not the only companies that make poles for dancing, just the most well-known and purchased the most in the pole community.
There's also brands of what I classify as novelty stripper poles such as the Carmen Electra pole, MiPole and the Peekaboo. Some of these are designed just for sliding against and mostly non-weight-bearing pole dancing and have plastic parts.
I wouldn't ride a bike with any of the working parts made of plastic, I personally am not going to recommend or vouch for a no brand dance pole that I wouldn't put all of my weight plus momentum on. That to me is a recipe for injury or an epic pole flop!
Most of the no-brand dance poles found online are on places like Ebay or Amazon, just to name a couple of places. There are a lot sold on various pole dancing-related websites and blogs as well.
Why even bring up the topic of an affordable dance pole? Heck, some of them are under a hundred US dollars and look just like an X-Pole! Why not?
Although I have not personally tried any no-brand dance poles (I did try a Carmen Electra pole at a girlfriend's house – but her husband had installed some additional bracing and we were able to invert on it) I did my research and turned to some thorough videos by Danna of PoleDancingFitness.com.
There seem to be several risks that come with purchasing a no-brand dance pole. From reading through many customer reviews on several sites, here are the main problems that surface:
The benefits of purchasing a no brand dance pole are:
I cannot say which is the best and most affordable no-brand dance pole since I have not tried them but Danna from PoleFitnessDancing.com offers one on her site that has outstanding reviews.
If I were to purchase a no-brand dance pole online, I would first read all of the customer reviews – something Amazon offers. There are some 4 star stripper poles sold on there that are less than any other pole I have come across and the majority of the customer reviews state the pole is affordable, sturdy and of good quality.
I think that if any pole is not properly installed, there are going to be problems. One of the problems that seems to come up in reviews is the lack of good installation instructions.
There are several pole manufacturers that are well-known in the poledance community that both many home users and studios will vouch for:
The benefits I see in purchasing a brand-name dance pole are:

I don't know if you're like me or my family, but do you ever go through food phases? You know, where you have a favorite side dish that you make all the time...or a go-to dinner that you make quite frequently. Then suddenly, you're on to a new favorite side dish or go-to dinner and your old favorite somehow gets forgotten.
Well, the dessert that I am going to share tonight is one that I remember my Mom making quite frequently when I was a kid...and then suddenly it wasn't the go-to dessert anymore and it got forgotten for years. I ran across this recipe and realized that we needed to add it to the blog. It's such a nostalgic dessert to me. In addition to that, it's delicious, easy to make, and the topping can be altered to suit different tastes.
The dessert is...drum roll, please...Debbie's Easy No-Bake Cheesecake. Yummy! Is it time for dessert yet?
Debbie's Easy No-Bake Cheesecake
1 pkg. (8 oz.) cream cheese
1/4 cup sugar
1 cup sour cream
2 tsp. vanilla
2 cups whipping cream
1 graham cracker pie crust
1 can favorite pie filling (such as blueberry or cherry)
Blend together cream cheese, sugar, sour cream, and vanilla. Whip 2 cups whipping cream and sweeten to taste with sugar. Combine whipping cream and cream cheese mixture. Pour into graham cracker crust. Freeze at least 1/2 hour before serving. Top with pie filling of choice.
Source: I don't know who this Debbie person is or where my Mom found this recipe. But it's a good one!
I actually found two versions of this recipe. Here is the earlier version that I found:
Earlier Version of Debbie's Easy No-Bake Cheesecake
1 pkg. (8 oz.) cream cheese
1/4 cup sugar
1 pkg. Dream Whip or 2 cups Cool Whip
1 graham cracker pie crust
1 (21 oz) can cherry pie filling (or favorite pie filling)
Cream cheese and sugar together. Mix in Dream Whip or Cool Whip. Pour into crust and freeze for 2 hours. move to refrigerator and when ready to serve, top with pie filling.
Source: Granger South Second Ward Cookbook...from long, long ago (before I was born, I think).
Notes: I found it interesting that I discovered two recipes submitted by the same person (whose name I forgot to note) but that the recipe had evolved. I guess we learn from that that recipes can evolve over time. We can also learn that if you don't have all of the ingredients or you have similar ingredients, you should feel free to add, omit, or substitute ingredients to get a similar result. Obviously, you can't do this with ALL ingredients...because after all, if you don't have cream cheese, it won't really be cheesecake.
I personally like this cheesecake with blueberry, cherry, or raspberry pie filling. But you can really top it with anything you want. You could use peach or apple pie filling, leave it plain, top it with caramel sauce...be creative!
