Location:Brisbane City
General location: Australia, South-East Queensland
The Setup:This is the vacant lot from last week, but after talking with Alan Warren about shooting it ultra-wide, I thought I'd give it a go myself. This is taken with the fisheye filter, then stretched out in Lightroom.
The camera & lens:Camera: Canon EOS 400D DIGITAL
@ 18/1mm
Filters: 0.42x fisheye filter (fisheye mode)
Exposure: 1/500" @ f/8/1, ISO 400
Post processing:
Lightroom -
- Auto apply a B&W preset I have called "PSKiss-FilmStyleBW-01". It auto applies curves (lights +60, darks -12, shadows -12), brightness +45, contrast +45, clarity +50 and increases the colour mixes in all channels, but mainly green and aqua.
- Lightroom lens correction - I set it to Sigma 8mm, which is the closest to the effecive focal range here
- Curves: Highlights +75, lights +60, darks -10, shadows -10.
- Exposure: -2.5 stops, fill light +100, recovery +100, blacks +30, clarity +100. This brought out the cloud texture but left the foreground very dark
- Graduated filter - foreground, exposure +1.7, brightness +200, clarity +100 (again!). This brought back the detail in the foreground.

Infusions are a healthy drink you can sip on all day long. A great way to give your body needed vitamins and minerals without swallowing a ton of pills. And infusions are super easy to make!
Believe it or not I skipped right over teas and infusions and went straight to tinctures and salves when I first started working with herbs. I first learned about infusions from Rosalee de la Foret of herbmentor. I mean I'd heard the phrase before but I just thought it was another name for a tea. But infusions are so much more!
What is an infusion?
An infusion is brewing a large amount of herbs in water for a long amount of time. Unlike tea which is only brewed for a few minutes, infusions are usually brewed for a few hours.
How you are supposed to drink infusions?
Infusions are nourishing drinks that you can drink all day long. They pack more punch than your average herbal tea. Because infusions use more herbs and steep longer than your average tea they tend to be more flavorful and they hold more of the plant properties in the drink. Instead of your typical store bought iced tea, make an herbal infusion. You can drink them over ice all day long if you are using an herb that you aren't supposed to limit. I use infusions to easily add nutrition to my body while also staying hydrated.
What herbs should I use?
Nutritive herbs are best for infusions. Nutritive herbs contain vitamins and minerals that are in most cases easily absorbed by the bodies. Some nutritive herbs are Nettle, alfalfa, red raspberry leaf and oat straw. The herb you choose for your infusion will depend on what your goal is. Red Raspberry is good for female reproductive organs and Nettle is great for an all around nutrition boost not to mention a good defense against seasonal allergies. You can also add tastier herbs to make the drink more enjoyable.

How to make an infusion?
An infusion is a ratio of one quart of boiled water poured over one ounce by weight or 1 cup by volume of your chosen herb or or herbs. To make mine more of a concentrate I will sometimes place 1.5-2 cups of herbs in my french press. Using my french press makes the straining process easier but you can use a quart mason jar or a larger glass pitcher or bowl.
After you've poured the water over the herbs let them steep for four hours or more. After they've steeped strain out the herbs and store in the fridge for a day or two.
I make my infusions in the evening before bed and let them steep overnight. When I first started making infusions I did measure but now it's more like a dump infusion. I toss in about three different herbs and use sight instead of measuring cups .
I will take my concentrated infusion and add it to my large cup of water throughout the day. My first few infusions tasted too strong for me. When I started adding it to my water I was not only able to tolerate it but I enjoyed it. Now using the concentrate I get more of the herbal infusion and the taste has grown on me.
I love my water, I really do, but some days I can only drink so much of it. When I'm board with water I go looking for something to change it up. Now that I have a daily infusion easily available to me I'll grab that instead of some other, possibly unhealthy, drink.
Is my daily infusion doing me any good?
I really dug into infusions when I was pregnant with my second child. I was drinking red raspberry infusions during my last weeks of pregnancy! I went over due with my first son and had to be induced and I did not want to do this again. I started drinking red raspberry at week 39. I was afraid of going early so I didn't start too soon. I probably could have started sooner and drank much more, (along with trying other things) because my second son also came by induction, 11 days late. His birth was much more pleasant than the first however.
The induction was less traumatic and the laboring seemed like it was more productive. I can attribute this to many things but I have to give credit to the infusion as well. Red Raspberry leaf tea is said to strengthen the uterus. As quickly as my son came once we got the process started showed me that my contractions and my pushes were much stronger than they were the first time around.
Now days I will usually drink an infusion that is mostly nettle mixed with whichever nutritive herb I feel I need at the time. The recommended amount of certain herbs to be considered therapeutic is often more than I'll actually drink in a day.
So are my infusions actually doing anything for me?
I believe they are. Something is certainly better than nothing. And because of my infusions, I drink healthy fluids throughout the day without getting board. I like a nice iced tea. I've also never been one to add a ton of sugar to tea so drinking an infusion without a sweetner is fine by me. You may find this harder to do. If you do, look to herbs like stevia, mint or lemon balm to add a sweeter taste to your infusion and avoid sugar.
So even if I'm not drinking therapeutic levels of the herbs my infusions are helping me to get in plenty of healthy fluids and they help me say no to sugary drinks. They are also adding much needed vitamins and minerals to my daily routine since I don't take any routine supplements. And believe me I notice when I go a day or two without drinking my infusion.
Should you try an infusion?
YES! Everyone should. Infusions are a simple way to add herbs to your daily routine. They can be tasty and they are fun! Infusions are a great way to get to know your herbs by taste. And tasting herbs is a powerful thing!
What do you think? Can you make room for infusions in your day? It's a great way to take personal responsibility for your health and they are so simple to make! Tell me what you think? Do you have some local herbs you could easily turn into a daily infusion?

Hello to the forum,
this is my first post because I have my first Moog now.
It is a Werkstatt.
I sequence it with my Analog Four and the A4 is also used for the Werkstatt as the effects unit.
Now my question.
Is there any possibility to pull off the fiddly knobs (like Korg Volca style ) and pull some real nice knobs on them like the Minitaur has?

CYPRIOT banks will be able to sell loans to third parties licensed by the Central Bank of Cyprus, with the regulator reserving the right to intervene in the foreclosure process to preserve monetary stability, according to the provisions of two draft bills leaked on Monday.
The two bills were prepared by a committee comprising the Central Bank of Cyprus, the Banks' Association, the Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the Cyprus Bar Association, and the Borrowers' Association.
Current legislation in Cyprus does not allow for the sale of loans to third parties without borrower consent, and modernising the legal framework has been deemed a "prior action" by the Troika of international lenders in its latest progress review of Cyprus' economic adjustment programme.
According to the fifth updated memorandum agreed between Cyprus and its lenders after the review, the Cypriot cabinet must have approved the final version of these bills by the end of June.
The first bill will regulate the activities of purchasers, meaning companies – such as hedge funds or investment funds – set up to buy loans from local lenders.
Only Cyprus-registered companies, or Cyprus-registered subsidiaries of EU-based institutions, may buy loans from Cypriot banks.
Based on the bill, every loan – whether serviced or not – could be put up for sale without borrower consent, although borrowers need to be informed prior to the transaction.
But eligible buyers must first fulfil a set of preconditions, including being registered in Cyprus – this will include Cypriot banks, as well as EU-based banks with a subsidiary registered in Cyprus.
Other preconditions include full disclosure of its shareholding structure and the identity of at least its 20 largest shareholders and directors, who will be feted under the standard of "a good reputation and adequate skills, knowledge and expertise to carry out their duties".
A person's ability to increase his or her stake in a loan-buying company will also be subject to CBC approval, and the regulator will be able to terminate the licence granted to a firm if it is found in breach of the law.
Buyers must inform borrowers of the impending sale of their loans at least one month prior to the transaction.
"The buyer replaces the seller [of the loan] in connection with all the rights relating to any collateral linked to the loan contract," the draft bill reads.
And on the flip-side, the buyer has the same obligations emanating from the loan contract.
Loan and collateral transactions will not be subject to taxes, fees, or other expenses, and loan buyers must inform the borrower – and any guarantors – within five working days of the transaction.
The Central Bank reserves the right to intervene and regulate – or block – the liquidation of loan collateral when it identifies a threat to monetary stability.
Minimum capital reserves for licensed buyers are set at €1 million.
In terms of oversight, the Central Bank may perform on-the-spot checks at licensed companies, and even order the sacking of a licensed buyer's director.
The CBC may also impose administrative or monetary fines double the benefit acquired from any violation of the law, up to €200,000.
The second draft bill regulates loan securitisation – or packaging and selling loans in tranches.
According to the bill, banks may sell bundles of loans to businesses, acting as middlemen, who then issue shares or bonds – 'financial products' – backed by the purchased loans.
Loan buyers will not pay sellers – banks – immediately upon acquiring loans, but only after the issue of bonds or shares.
Individuals or public institutions, including the government, may also sell loans to buyers.
The issuance of financial products will be subject to the provisions of current legislation on public offerings.
And any assets, mortgages, or collateral backing purchased loans will be considered transferred to the securitisation firm.
Processing personal data, done in good faith as necessary for securitisation, will be allowed with no prior permission from the Personal Data Commissioner.

It is a pity that all this "due diligence" and safe guards were not used by the banks in the first place and they would never have been in this mess!!
Now the clowns are running the circus again.
Much of this legislation is about who is allowed to buy the loans. Cyprus based or EU based and registered in Cyprus, subject to approval by the Central Bank of Cyprus, who must approve any change in the ownership of shares in the approved company. So what is that all about? Well, the MPs are paranoid about any Cyprus assets being owned by……Turks.
Where are the clauses about the stability and security of the buying companies, whether their money is good, and about the obligations to the subjects of the debt? There aren't any clauses on that, because the right honourables are more concerned about……Turks.
One way to make progress on the unification of Cyprus is to give the Turks some incentive to make progress, like owning some assets in the south, but the elected reps of the people couldn't care less about unification because it means agreements with…..Turks.
Emotions and principles come at a price, but who will be paying?
Instead of the banks taking the full hit for their mismanagement they just sell off the bad debt to a third party for as much as they can get. A little is better than nothing.
Most of these third party companies will have much stricter guidelines in recovering these debts and will not be in the glare of the world press.

Rome, Italy, Oct 13, 2016 / 08:02 pm ().- Cardinal Angelo Bagnasco has been elected the new President of the European Bishops Conference – a move which makes a clear statement in terms of how the continent's leaders plan on facing a broad spectrum of current crises.
An outspoken voice on many current issues, Bagnasco has come out as a hard-hitter on several biggies, including gender theory, abortion, civil unions and communion for the divorced and remarried.
He has a powerful presence in the European Church, and his election can be seen as planting the Church's foot firmly toward the right in a socio-economic context pulling hard to the left.
Also the President of the Italian Bishops Conference and Archbishop of Genoa, Bagnasco was elected by the Council of Catholic Episcopal Conferences in Europe (CCEE) during their Oct. 6-9 Plenary Assembly and will take over for Hungarian Cardinal Peter Erdo, who has been at the helm since 2006.
The CCEE is a gathering of the presidents of the individual European Bishops Conferences. In his role as president, Bagnasco will be responsible not so much for political procedures, but will head a wide range of activities the individual bishops conferences oversee, including catechesis.
Alongside him were the significant elections of two vice presidents: Cardinal Vincent Nichols, Archbishop of Westminster, and Archbishop Stanislaw Gadecki of Poznan, Poland.
In front of the backdrop of shady proposals made during the recent Synod of Bishops on the Family that deviate from Church doctrine as well as the increase of secularism in Europe, the selections altogether make a clear statement as to which direction the continent's leaders want the Church to go.
In one sense the bishops are striving toward unity, particularly in the appointment of Nichols, who serves as a bridge between Europe and the UK in the age of Brexit and within an increasingly fractured Europe rife with problems caused by migration and economic instability.
Gadecki, for his part, is a significant pick given his stance in the recent 2014-2015 Synod of Bishops on the Family.
With several pockets, primarily from among the German bishops, pushing for a change in the Church's position on both homosexuality and communion for the divorced and remarried, Gadecki represents the opposite, coming from among those Eastern European bishops who stood firmly in favor of Church doctrine during the two-year gathering.
The individual profiles of Bagnasco, Nichols and Gadecki, and the election of the trio to head the CCEE sends a clear signal as to the tone Europe's bishops want to set for the discussion.
Effective immediately upon their election, the new president and vice presidents will serve a five year term, either stepping down at the next voting session, or staying on should they be re-elected.
Considered by some to be "papabile" – meaning he's in the running to be elected Pope during the next conclave – Cardinal Bagnasco's personal positions are similar to those of Francis himself, from pastoral action to political involvement.
In 2008 he urged Catholics to be more active in the public square, taking on a more courageous and coherent presence, as Francis has often done.
"Catholics must bring the contribution of spiritual and ethical values into the public square," he said in an interview published in L'Osservatore Romano.
"The presence (in the public square) must be assumed by Catholics with greater persuasiveness and a greater capacity to respectfully explain our convictions, knowing that they come both from the Gospel and from a common understanding of the value of life," he added.
Catholics "do not want to impose a religious vision of society, but to propose universal values," he said, adding that "the most credible argument, of course is the witness of our own personal life."
Bagnasco has consistently taken his own words to heart. A year later, when Italian healthcare officials in 2009 approved the sale of the abortion drug RU-486, he urged doctors opposed to the drug to exercise their right to conscientious objection, calling for "an end to corruption and injustice."
More recently, in 2014 the cardinal responded to threats on the life of an anti-mafia priest, offering his support and calling for an end to corruption and injustice.
In May of this year, Bangasco came in swinging at the push for civil unions in Italy, throwing a firm punch at the bill approving civil unions which had just passed in the nation's parliament.
In a powerful speech ahead of the annual Plenary Assembly of the Italian Bishops' conference, he stressed that the law "certifies an equivalence" between civil unions and marriage, even "though the law affirms that civil unions and marriage are different things."
Such "differences are only tricks of terminology or juridical artifacts, which can be easily bypassed."
The cardinal said the topic of civil unions is of trivial interest to most, and that people "want the parliament to be committed" to tackling real issues, such as Italy's high unemployment rate and poverty.
"These are the real problems of the country, of the people. So, is not understandable why (the Italian Parliament) spent so much emphasis and energy on causes that do not tackle these issues, and merely respond to ideological schemes."
When it comes to touchy subjects brought up more recently such as communion for the divorced and remarried, Bagnasco has been a strong opponent of the "Kasper Proposal," referring to German Cardinal Walter Kasper's push to allow access on a case by case basis, particularly in the lead-in to the 2014 Synod of Bishops on the Family.
However, long before Amoris Laetitia and the 2014-2015 Synod, Bagnasco was already speaking out on the issue, presenting theories as to how the Church could be more mother-like while still not allowing access to the Eucharist.
In June 2008, while presenting a book on the visit of Pope Benedict XVI to Genoa, Bagnasco came out in strong opposition to the reception of communion for the divorced and remarried, saying it was "impossible" for couples in the state to receive the Sacrament.
The fact that these couples can't receive "does not depend on an external disposition but rather comes from the interior of the sacrament of the Eucharist itself, the sacrament of the perennial unity between the love of Christ and humanity," he said.
He pointed to the example of Catholics who are separated and who "suffer from this difficult situation, but nonetheless live in fidelity to the indissolubility of the sacrament and desire to meet and pray together, to exchange experiences and encourage one another."
This situation "is one of the ways in which the maternity of the Church is expressed," he added.
He has also spoken out about Christian persecution and assisted suicide, which are both things Pope Francis himself has harshly condemned.
In his speech at the Eucharistic Congress in Genoa in September, Bagnasco said these things are the result of "a world order without God."
"Even today Christians experience martyrdom," not only in the bloody, "classical" way, but also in new forms, "refined, but not less cruel; legalized, but not less unjust," he said, referring to the legalized killing of Christians in countries such as Pakistan, whose blasphemy laws still allow the practice.
Cardinal Bagnasco pointed his finger at a Europe that considers Christianity as "divisive" and at the world which "in the name of values like equality, tolerance and rights" claims to "marginalize Christianity" and establish "a world order without God."
In comments to CNA at the time, he criticized the practice of assisted suicide, citing the recent euthanasia of a minor in Belgium – a terminally ill 17 year-old boy – as "definitely one of the outcomes of a world order without God."
Clearly on top of current issues and fearless in speaking out on them, Cardinal Bagnasco has proven himself to be a solid figure that won't be easily moved.
Though he tends toward the Church's more conservative side, he takes a balanced approach and is willing to listen, yet won't back down from a fight if needed, even if it should come from within the Church itself.
The election of Bagnasco alone is proof that many of Europe's individual bishops' conferences are well aware of the issues at stake, and have made it clear how they want to tackle them. And if Bagnasco's tenure so far is any indication, it won't take long for him or his two sidekicks to get to work.

Demand for HVAC Professionals in Maine
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS 2017), people in HVAC are expected to have a wealth of job openings throughout the coming decade. In fact, the BLS predicted a 15 percent increase in openings nationwide in the industry between 2016 and 2026, a much more robust projection than the average growth anticipated across all US occupations (7 percent). One factor contributing to the high growth prospects in this field is the increasing concern for the environment; as people focus on energy conservation and pollution reduction, systems will need to be upgraded, retrofitted, or otherwise replaced with more earth-friendly systems.
While the expectations are rosy in HVAC, the BLS (2017) also cautions that people in this profession suffer a relatively high rate of injury compared to other US occupations, an effect of the physical nature of the work as well as the types of chemicals (e.g., refrigerants) used. Although the threat of muscle tears, strains, burns, and electrical shock remains higher in HVAC than in other occupations, these maladies can generally be kept to a minimum with proper training and safety equipment. Please note that HVAC technicians and mechanics are typically expected to be able to lift at least 40 pounds.
Some HVAC professionals in Maine work normal business hours, but their day may be extended to evenings, weekends, or holidays according to the servicing needs of customers, especially during the winter. Nine percent of the HVAC workers nationwide were self-employed in 2016, and 64 percent worked through contracting companies.
As a testament to the thriving demand in HVAC, major job post websites advertised relevant job openings across Maine. By illustration, Indeed (Oct. 2018) had 77 opportunities at places such as J.P. Carroll Fuel Company, Pine State Services, and New England Mechanical. To summarize, the future looks bright for trained HVAC professionals in Maine and beyond.

The weather office says they're looking at damage to trees and some buildings in an area about 15 kilometres from Huntsville.
Environment Canada says it still has some work to do before it can say whether it was a second tornado.
On Saturday the weather office confirmed a tornado touched down on Fairy Lake near Huntsville.
Officials estimate the twister had speeds of 130 to 150 km/h.
The tornado moved through the area and did severe damage to some homes and trees in the vicinity.
The thunderstorms that moved through the region downed trees and knocked out power to about 13,000 Hydro One customers.
Many people had to do without electricity for much of Saturday.

Christmas Goose
His Jewish heritage aside (as if that were possible) Howard was a man who loved Christmas. He loved the shopping, the decorating, and the gift-wrapping but mostly he loved the food. Howard could obsess over the most mundane of foods. An entire year of high school was focused on the hungry pursuit of Chung King frozen egg rolls. That followed twelve months of TastyKakes Butterscotch Krumpets. Before that was the quest for the perfect fried onion ring. And one salt-laden summer was devoted to Utz potato chips dribbled with vinegar. Which, he informed me, was very British.
We were good reformed Jews, going to Temple most Friday evenings. But we worshipped, too, at paper-covered tables of steamed crabs. And with no sense of irony, our favorite restaurant, Mandel's Deli, served both Kosher-style Corned Beef and extravagant Shrimp Salad sandwiches.
One Christmas, when Howard and I were living in New York, both pathetically partnerless, he decided we should cheer ourselves up by roasting a goose for Christmas. It would be an adventure, he said, our very own Dickens Christmas as only two lapsed Jews could envision it.
I was living in a miniscule studio apartment on Second Avenue with a narrow oven and half refrigerator along one wall. But Howard's apartment was even smaller, which meant our goose escapade would happen at my place.
"Make sure the oven is really hot," he told me. "They say it needs a really hot oven. I've got the bird – I had to leave it on the fire escape last night, my fridge was too small. Did you pick up the sage?"
"Yeah. Well, I think it's sage. It might be thyme." All I knew was that the Simon and Garfunkle song had been going through my head for three days. "But, How, I don't think I have a pan big enough, you'd better bring something."
Here's what I now know:
- Roasting a goose requires a strong back as you must continually lift the pan out of the oven to drain the copious amount of fat that comes off the bird.
- Also, don't pour the fat down the kitchen drain as it clogs the pipes. And when the super comes to unclog the pipes, don't tell him you poured copious amounts of goose fat down the ancient drain of your ancient sink.
- The smell of roasted goose permeates everything, and is especially unpleasant when it clings to the upholstery of the sofa bed you sleep on every night.
- Most importantly – though a roasted goose is gamey and stringy, a large pan of stuffing made with both sage and thyme, makes anything palatable.
The following Christmas things were a little better. We were both happier, Howard had moved to a Christopher Street walk up with a big sink in the kitchen to compensate for the lack of one in the bathroom. Best of all, we were surrounded that year by friends and hope, and dinner – turkey - was delicious.

By Susan Potok Harrison
An article from the NY Times made its way around social media and inboxes earlier this year, titled "What You Learn in Your 40s" by Pamela Druckerman. (She is also the author of the infamous book, Bringing up Bebe: One American Mother Discovers the Wisdom of French Parenting.) In her article, she humorously talks about insights we gain by passing this milestone of turning 40.
As someone who recently had a week-long celebration of being firmly entrenched in that decade, I have spent much of this past year reflecting and ruminating about what age really means, observing those around me in similar straits, and how they seem to be rolling with it. We all hear that 30 is the new 20! 40 is the new 30! So many mindsets seem to want us to believe that aging is okay — because it doesn't mean what it used to mean. The last time I checked, the year still had 365 days, comprising 12 months of a calendar. No matter how you choose to calculate it, if you're 40 you've still lived approximately 14,600 days. And it got me to thinking, why are we all so obsessed with making 40 what it isn't? Why not celebrate it for what it is, instead of trying to make it less than it is.
A few years ago I began a journey that I didn't realize would take me where it did. After carrying healthy twin boys to full term, it had been 3 years and I still had 30 extra lbs to lose. What began as a weight loss goal became a personal archaeological dig: unearthing physical and mental traits I didn't realize I had. Group fitness became a huge part of that journey. As someone who had been an avid runner and always eschewed fitness classes, I didn't realize the incredible camaraderie and community I was about to experience. It was the beginning of the summer and my husband and I would be spending a lot of time on Long Island with our twin boys. After being directed by the fittest friend I knew, and doing my own research, I decided I would try Barry's Bootcamp. I didn't know the difference between a kettle bell and a medicine ball, the only burpees I had heard of were seeds, and I had never held plank for 30 seconds in my life. Yet, I was resolved. I was going to give it a go.
I remember everything about my first class … specifically, being told to run at a 7 speed on a 6% incline. After the first 20 seconds, I was clutching the treadmill sides for dear life, drops of sweat teeming down my face. The lithe, athletic-looking man running effortlessly next to me, shirt off, body glistening, said, "Honey – just so you know, studies have shown that you lose 30% of the efficacy of the workout when you hold on to the sides during an incline." I managed some sort of barely audible whimpering acknowledgement, but in my head I was saying "Honey - just so you know, if I weren't right here this second, I would be home sitting on my couch, eating a bagel with cream cheese. So it's all good. I'll take the 70%."
From that first class, I became hooked. Immediately after the workout my mind was clear, my body was thoroughly spent and exhausted, and my clothes were drenched through. I was in love with this feeling! I became a regular at Patrick Frost's 12:30 class in Chelsea, and I was in for a further surprise: Some of the fittest, most hardcore, and devout students I met were women and men in their late 30s, and well into their 40s. How could this be, I wondered – weren't our bodies supposed to be on the decline, middle age malaise settling in, thus making it even harder to … stay hard? Why are some of these 42-year-old women lifting more than their 26-year-old counterparts? Sprinting faster, longer?
One of the answers could be simply that our stakes are higher. We realize the quantity of time we have left to "get fit" is shrinking. As we get older, we get less time – in every way. Scheduling personal items, especially as a parent, becomes a monumental task. As a single 28-year-old, you can wake up at 11 am, go to a noon spin class, have brunch with friends, run some errands, and hit up hot yoga at 6, before you go home to shower and out for dinner. As a 40-something mother of young children, your weekend exercise most typically involves shuttling said children to and from birthday parties, sports activities, and chess lessons. Fitting in a one-hour workout class on a Sunday afternoon means negotiating with your spouse for that free hour. Which leaves little wonder as to why time to workout becomes so precious. If I half-ass a class, I can't stick around for the next one, or make it up later that weekend with something else – I'm screwed. I wasted my negotiated hour.
Another reason 40-somethings are defining a new class of "uber-fit" is, according to Natalie Raitano, 48, a dedicated Barry's Instructor and a modern day cross between Raquel Welch and Sophia Loren, "We know ourselves better. We know what we need to do and what it takes to do it." And she adds, "We have the discipline and commitment gained from years of experience to keep it consistent." With each decade, something seems to diminish in our physical body: our metabolism is slower, our sleep cycles are shorter, our skin becomes less supple, and science tells us that after the age of 40, muscle mass declines 8 percent each decade. So the cold stark reality is that "mid life" is a time when we can no longer wave off taking care of our bodies. We have seen ourselves change through our 20s and 30s, and we have seen what it takes to "get back on track" after each indiscretion. What we put into our bodies as a 40-something has an almost instant result not only on the scale, but on everything else as well: our mood, our skin, our sleep pattern. The one counterbalance and arguably preventive measure to all of this is quite simply, sweat. A multitude of sins can be forgiven through a high intensity interval training class… that cheese soufflé or extra glass of wine the night before becomes pools of sweat on the treadmill the next day. Advice from doctors and fitness professionals alike is this: a regular and consistent cardio program combined with strength training is the new "apple a day."
Patrick Frost, 26, Master Instructor at Barry's, whose intelligent and creatively crafted classes attract all ages, yet have the reputation of being among the most intense, philosophically comments: "We live in a society that promotes youth and beauty, yet we forget that aging is one of the greatest gifts! The average 20-something takes their body and youth for granted. In your 40s, you have a greater sense of self and mortality. You realize it's essential to exercise, not only for your body and heart, but also your mind. It is our self-imposed limits that hinder us in life. Age is just a number."
It's no surprise then that 40-somethings are filing in droves to gyms and boutique fitness programs around the city, and why we are crushing it. For us, fitness can serve as so many things: our physical accomplishment, our social outlet, our mood enhancer, our energy booster. It is our "me" time, our happy place. It's an hour a day where we are completely left to ourselves, too busy sweating for even our thoughts! During that hour we are responsible to no one but the soul inside. It becomes quite a wonderful addiction. So getting back to that article in the NY Times, yes I have learned to wear black to lunch with the fashion editor, and never to buy jeans a size smaller "hoping" I will fit into them. But I have also found out: I can sprint at a 12.5 on a 6% incline, I can squat 205 lbs, and I can now hold plank in different movement variations for 9 minutes.
Further, I have learned I have a strong soul inside with the mental and physical fortitude to lose 30 extra lbs and keep them off. I have uncovered a true passion, and I've never been fitter in mind, body and soul. 40 is more than 30! And I can't wait to see what the rest of this decade brings. I'd say that's something to celebrate.

What Home Means
As the second session of TEDxOKC was starting, the moderator announced that there was an adjustment to the schedule. A surprise speaker would be filling the next slot. Considering the resumes of the other speakers on the schedule, I knew this person would be well qualified and present a unique perspective to a world-changing viewpoint.
He delivered. The speaker was Anthony Shadid. While the rest of the crowd started clapping profusely, his name meant nothing to me. I felt out of the loop.
During his introduction, I realized we were all in for a treat. He is a Pulitzer Prize winning correspondent for the New York Times in the Middle East and had recently returned from Libya, where he had been held as a prisoner under the regime of Moammar Gadhafi.
Needless to say, he had my attention.
He slowly walked up the stairs and struggled to take his reach the chair waiting for him on the stage. His slow movement was the result of being shot in the back while reporting in the Middle East a few years ago.
He began with enthusiasm radiating from his body. Insider views
A few minutes into the presentation, he shifted gears. He started to talk about
After an extended pause, he stated with heartfelt emotion, "As I sat in the jail cell in Libya just a few days ago, I found myself longing for home." Another pause brought the room to complete silence. This was no longer a man simply talking to an audience of relatively unknown strangers. This was a man opening up and expressing emotions each of us feel yet few experience.
The next statement struck me with its honesty. "Home becomes more important when you fear you may not be able to come back to it."
I am not sure what he said for the rest of his speech. This one statement was all I could think about. Its simplicity yet truthfulness consumed me. Hurriedly I wrote it down in my notebook.
While I hope none of you ever find yourself in a position like Anthony Shadid, I do hope that you will truly cherish wherever home is to you. It is not the geographical place, but rather the friends, family, shared experiences, and piece of your life that makes it special.

Matt Mitrione has been suspended by the UFC for a "significant" breach in the UFC's promotion's "Code of Conduct" on Monday after his verbal insult on Fallon Fox during "The MMA Hour"
Matt Mitrione revealed on "The Mitrione Minute" his thoughts on the recently outed transgender fighter Fallon Fox, and they weren't very nice.
Back in March when Fox came out there has been TONS of debate and scrutiny by the public, state and fighters in the sport over her fighting other women. Through performance dehancing drugs Fox was originally a male turned female.
Mitrione, usually being a light-hearted jokester took a turn to "seriousville" via Skype explaining:
"That is a lying, sick, sociopathic, disgusting freak aFand I mean that. Because you lied on your license to beat up women. That's disgusting. You should be embarrassed yourself. And the fact that Florida licensed him because California licensed him or whoever the hell did it, it's an embarrassment to us as fighters, as a sport, and we all should protest that. The woman that's fighting him, props to you. I hope you beat his ass, and I hope he gets blackballed and never fights again, because that's disgusting and I'm appalled by that."
This was in response to host Ariel Helwani's question as to why he hated Fox so much.
Mitrione continued to call Fox a "he" and even went as far as to make the comparison to Chris Brown and Rihanna's relationship, back when Chris Brown beat up Rihanna after the Grammys saying he hasn't "seen a man beat a woman like that since Chris Brown beat Rihanna."
Then he made another comparison with Fox to the "Silence of the Lambs" serial killer Buffalo Bill. "Maybe instead of being 'the Queen of Swords,' Fallon Fox should consider being 'The King of the Buffalos."
This was all one mans opinion and this whole situation is a very huge issue with many people supporting and others not. Mitrione obviously doesn't support Fox at all but maybe he went a little over board with everything he said during the show. It's was pretty explicit in the words he used and just hateful.
Allana Jones from the Championship Fighting Alliance has however agreed to fight Fox on May 24 and there hasn't been anything from the state of Florida to object.
Should be interesting to see how all this plays out if Fox ends up winning a lot. That might start to make people think that it is some what of an un-fair advantage.

In the not so distant future, the year 2020, The United States of America is a very different place. It has become a barren, desolate land, stripped of all beauty and personal freedom.
Millions of Americans are subjected to the complete tyrannical rule of Supreme Leader Obama and his Communist administration.
After the ruthless dictator's unprecedented power grab in 2016, things began to fall apart very quickly for the once shining beacon of democracy. The former president used his extensive knowledge of law to find loopholes and fallacies in the U.S. Constitution, which allowed him to retain power after his second term.

What can I do about my child's bedwetting?
Enuresis, also known as "urinary incontinence" or "bedwetting," can be extremely distressing for both parents and children. It can lead to lower self-esteem in children, frustration among caregivers, and disruptions in sleep for both.
Enuresis is a common problem in the United States with approximately 5 million children affected, with boys experiencing it three times more often than girls do. Enuresis can run in families — often times a parent will come to the office and say that he or she also "wet the bed" when younger. In most children, it will resolve by the age of 6 years. When it persists much past that age, particularly when a child begins sleeping outside the home, at sleepovers, is typically when it becomes most distressing.
There are some known risk factors for enuresis. One of the most common ones is dysfunctional elimination syndrome. This syndrome represents a collection of abnormal urinary patterns associated with constipation. For example, it can mean your child is holding his or her urine for too long and overstretching the bladder, or having difficulty relaxing the bladder outlet during urination, straining the muscle. Other risk factors for enuresis are breathing problems such as sleep apnea, or neuropsychiatric disorders such as attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or anxiety. Constipation and sleep apnea should be treated by your child's pediatrician or another specialist. Children with ADHD should be reminded to empty their bladders every few hours.
Enuresis can happen during the daytime, but it is more common overnight. There are two forms of enuresis, primary and secondary. Primary enuresis is more common and means that your child has never been completely dry. It can be caused by making large volumes of urine overnight, having a bladder that does not relax properly to fill and store urine, and lower than normal levels of a hormone which causes water retention by the kidney. With secondary enuresis, your child was previously dry for a period of at least six months and is now experiencing symptoms. Causes include bladder infections, things that cause large volumes of urine such as diabetes, and emotional stress or trauma in a child's life such as a family divorce, bullying at school or the loss of a beloved pet.
If your child is experiencing enuresis, see your pediatrician first. He or she can likely make the diagnosis with a simple history and physical examination. In addition, your pediatrician may want to screen your child's urine for infection or excess glucose. Imaging studies are rarely needed to make the diagnosis.
Most parents recognize enuresis but don't know what to do to treat it. Parents should understand the natural history of the problem — that it's developmentally appropriate in young children, and that most children will "grow out of it." If enuresis is a stressful problem in your household, here are some of the available treatments to discuss with your pediatrician:
- Minimize the amount of fluids your child drinks after dinnertime.
- Encourage your child to empty the bladder regularly during the day and before bedtime.
- Treat constipation aggressively with laxatives such as polyethylene glycol. Stool should be soft like a banana and come every one to two days.
- Some families find success using a bedwetting alarm: a device which is placed in the child's bed and will activate if it becomes wet. This type of device is used every night and improves arousal from overnight bladder filling and storage of urine, through repeated conditioning.
- There are also formal programs developed by pediatric psychologists that use behavioral therapy and positive reinforcement —often in conjunction with bedwetting alarms. These programs are more successful when implemented consistently.
- If your child is over the age of 6, your pediatrician may refer you to a specialist with advanced knowledge in medications to treat incontinence such as a nephrologist or urologist. These specialists can prescribe medications which are taken every night to help keep your child dry. These medications do not cure the problem, but they help control the symptoms. One type of medicine called desmopressin leads to decreased urine in the bladder, another type called imipramine causes the bladder to retain urine overnight, and still another called oxybutynin relaxes the bladder muscles allowing it to fill more normally and empty completely with regular voiding. These medicines are often successful.
What can you do for your older child in the short term who wants to stay at a friend's house without suffering embarrassment? One suggestion is to send your child with a pull up inside of his or her sleeping bag. This technique offers a little more housework for a parent, but allows your child not to miss out on fun with friends. Finally, a closing note — if your child or your family dynamic is suffering from incontinence, we can offer hope — 99 percent of cases spontaneously resolve without the use of medications.

Listen to Luther
Faith Changes People
By faith he stayed for a time in the land he had been promised, as in a foreign land, living in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise.
Hebrews 11:9 New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)
Read some of Luther's words and get updated on upcoming events in The Scribe for September, Volume II.
Many activities are picking back up for the fall, including Sunday School and Confirmation classes as well as Adult Bible Study called "Growing Deeper".
Luther's famous comment about reading marking, learning, and inwardly digesting
God's Word helps the believer to see just how important Scripture is for us. In it, we find comfort in our loss, strength in our fears, direction for our way, and hope for our future. In it, we find Jesus.
Take a look at September's activities to find one that may fit you and your family.
