LANSING, Mich. (8/19/14)--The Michigan Credit Union League board this month approved a 50% rebate on membership dues for its member credit unions, the fourth year running it has approved returning half the cost of being a member of the league (Michigan Monitor Aug. 18).
David Adams, league president/CEO, says the league, which has provided discounted membership dues to its members since 2009, can offer rebates for a variety of reasons.
"First, because our membership and policymakers have given us a license to build our member net assets reserves, we have a strong base of capital for investment," Adams said, adding that the better the league's investments perform, the less it must rely on dues for revenue.
Second, Adams said, the league has been able to provide rebates thanks to the success of its CU Solutions Group (CUSG), of which it owns 67% of the earnings.
"CUSG is again enjoying a very profitable year in 2014," the league said in a press release. In fact, the investments have performed well enough that the league has adopted the strategy of running its operation at a deficit.
Credit unions will have several options for using the money, according to the league. They can keep it to help their own budgets, contribute it to help fund the league's political engagement, help fund cooperative advertising or provide funding to the Michigan Credit Union Foundation.
No matter where the money is allocated, it will go "to good use supporting the good work you do at your credit union every day," Adams said.

OTTAWA, Ontario (CNS) — A conservative member of Parliament blocked a motion calling on the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops to invite Pope Francis to apologize for the Catholic Church's role in abuse at Indian residential schools.
However, Charlie Angus, a member of Parliament, said the motion would come up for debate and a vote in the House in the coming weeks.
Angus is seeking unanimous government support for a motion to call on the CCCB to formally invite Pope Francis to apologize in Canada, as requested by the 2015 report of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. While the idea behind the schools was to promote the greater integration of indigenous communities into modern Canadian life, the schools — many run by Catholic religious orders — led to a situation in which many children were torn from their families, lost their native language and cultures and often suffered abuse. The commission's report used the term "cultural genocide" to describe what happened to aboriginal Canadians in residential schools.
Garnett Genuis, the lone dissenter on the April 18 motion, told journalists he refused to give consent because he thought Parliament should not be "dictating" to any religious entity how to run its affairs or how to engage in reconciliation. Stressing the principle of separation of church and state, Genuis said such a motion would be an unprecedented move on the part of Parliament in relation to a religion.
Genuis said the Catholic dioceses and religious orders that were involved in the schools had apologized and paid compensation for their role in running the schools. Whether the pope should come and apologize, he said, is a matter for the Catholic Church to decide.
Earlier in the day, the president and vice president of the Canadian bishops' conference held a news conference on Parliament Hill to attempt to "clear up misconceptions and inaccuracies" related to the motion.
Joining them via telephone conferencing was Irving Papineau, a Mohawk from Akwesasne and vice-chair of the Canadian Catholic Aboriginal Council. Papineau said a papal apology is "not much talked about" in his community.
"What is needed is not more words, but local initiatives and programs," he said, noting indigenous communities are diverse and need "tailor-made," not one-size-fits-all solutions.
Bishop Lionel Gendron of Saint-Jean-Longueuil, Quebec, president of the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops, told the news conference it was not true that Pope Francis has refused to apologize, only that he could not personally respond to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's call that he do so on Canadian soil within a year.
Bishop Gendron and Archbishop Richard Gagnon, CCCB vice president, noted that Pope Benedict XVI had apologized in 2009, and his apology had been accepted by the then-national chief of the Assembly of First Nations, Phil Fontaine.
Fontaine, however, had told the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. that the bishops were taking his words out of context.
"I would never say anything to diminish what happened nine years ago, but I also call on the Catholic Church, and the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops, to honor its commitment to reconciliation and healing," Fontaine said.
When challenged by journalists about Fontaine's comments, Bishop Gendron said, "This is what he said," referring to his remarks after Pope Benedict's apology, but added, "if he has changed his position since then," that is his choice.
Pope Francis is "open to coming to Canada, and what the pope says to indigenous people is what he determines is best, pastorally speaking," Archbishop Gagnon said, noting he could not "articulate what the pope will say."
The bishops said the pope has been invited to Canada by the current and past two CCCB presidents, and reiterated that a trip remains possible.

"As long as we are alive, the journey of spirituality always returns us to the body: we are of the Earth." –Christina Baldwin, The Seven Whispers
There's an idea which says 250 million years ago the Earth's land mass formed one supercontinent called Pangaea. The continents now separated by oceans were once connected.
After a weeklong massage and reflexology training at Esalen Institute I think this idea applies to humans too. What is in one is in all. What is in all is in one. Each individual body is a microcosm of our embodied Earth. Our individual and collective bodies need re-membering. We are longing to experience our wholeness from the inside out.
Sarah was completely new to practicing massage when she signed up for the training. I could feel her struggle to learn the mechanics of technique with her head while trying to stay present with her heart. Her gentle touch and caring intention balanced out the tentativeness in her hands, and my body felt that spark of interconnection with a greater whole.
Yes, I am a distinct individual with boundaries. Yet a deep experience of bodywork reminds me that the interconnection of one and all is by infinite design and we can experience it through the body.
After receiving 6 hours of massage in four days (as well as offering 5 hours), my body feels like a temple. When I came home from the workshop I found myself naturally drawn to healthier foods, with no need to "should" on myself about what to eat. There was even a day where I arose from bed with the sun without the aid of an alarm feeling thoroughly rested. I can't remember the last time this has happened. Even though I still have aches and pains and lapses of energy, my body feels re-membered, put back together again in a way I haven't felt in a long time.
The truth is I already am whole. I already am enough. But I constantly need to be reminded, and receiving the supportive touch of massage helps me remember who I really am. It helps me gather all the fragments of myself scattered about, sheparding them out of the dark corners into the clearings. Then I can feel the wholeness naturally from inside.
I know of some professional bodyworkers who offered George W. Bush complimentary bodywork every year he was president. Not surprisingly, he didn't accept their offer. But sometimes I wonder, what if he had? Would a man in touch with his interconnection with the whole be able to wage global wars and perpetuate massive injustice?
Sitting here in this rejuvenated container called my body – a body that's been touched abundantly for several days – I wish that all beings may inhabit a body blessed by nurturing, supportive touch and feel the sweetness of this basic human need being met. I wish that for each of us, including George. I claim for us all an inner acknowledgment of the need for touch and the willingness to have it.
Pangaea still exists. We are Her. She is us. Touch helps us connect and reconnect the ruptures. We are ready to be put back together again.

HGR First Play – Splinter Cell Blacklist
Fancy name for a basic idea.
Every week in HGR towers (not actual towers, but a front door or email) we seem to play a new title, and when one of the guys have a game cap you can expect the following.
We get the code or disc, stick it into the console of choice and capture the first 30 minutes or so of gameplay, going in blind and not caring if we look like rubbish players.
The game today is Splinter Cell Blacklist from Ubisoft, which should have a review up later next week.
The below video captures the start of the game, but with all the cut scenes taken away, my way of stopping any major spoilers I hope.
You can watch as I try to not be a cat like ninja and more a fat footed idiot who puts the name Sam Fisher to sneaky shame.
Splinter Cell Blacklist is out in the UK Friday, but already out elsewhere NOW.

That trip to the post office is long overdue. Seriously. In that whole bunch (there are some missing), I have two wedding presents – one of which is still not complete (!) – together with another six Pay It Forward packages and a package for the family.
I have been delaying it, honestly, but I have my reasons – it mostly has to do with stuff related to the secret project. I'm not too sure how the response will be to it exactly but it's more for a hobby and just to clear up some space in my craft-computer-entertainment room.
And then, along the way, I decide to pick up some more stuff to send – postcards, souvenirs, tiny stuff. In some ways, I actually dread going to the post office with all this; the look on the face of the person taking my mail. Eeek.
Oh, anyone with ideas on making custom picture frames? The ones here are a bit on the expensive side and well, I'm also overdue on putting up my wedding posters…and speaking of wedding, I'm overdue on the dinner album designs as well.
Gosh. I'm just…overdue.

I supported Demi Moore after her split: Miley Cyrus
London: Singer-actress Miley Cyrus claims she supported Demi Moore after her split from Ashton Kutcher. The Wrecking Ball hitmaker, who called off her engagement with Liam Hemsworth last week, said she is happy that she was able to support the 50-year-old actress on the set of their movie LOL last year, shortly after Moore's sudden split from Kutcher after six years of marriage, reported Contactmusic. "That was dope, because I think we needed each other at that point. We both needed to get out of LA," Cyrus said. The 20-year-old singer said that Moore in turn helped her to grow up and move on from her 'Hannah Montana' past. "Detroit's where I felt like I really grew up. It was only for a summer, but that's where I started going to clubs, where I got my first tattoo. Well, not my first tattoo, but my first without my mom's consent. I got it on 8 Mile! I lied to the guy and told him I was 18. I got a heart on my finger and wore a Band-Aid for two months so my mom wouldn't find out," Cyrus added. PTI

The Start Fund is embracing localisation through partnerships
Blog Post
In 2016, thirty of the biggest humanitarian donors and aid providers met at the World Humanitarian Summit to sign the 'Grand Bargain' commitments, a series of agreements which aimed 'to get more means into the hands of people in need'1.
Among the outcomes, the signatories agreed to provide greater funding for national and local responders, setting an aggregated target of providing at least 25% of humanitarian funding to local and national responders as directly as possible2. In addition to supporting multi-year investment in their institutional capacity, they agreed to reduce the partnership barriers between international organisations and local and national responders.
The agreement signified a greater commitment to localisation, but what does that mean in practice?
To answer that question, in August 2017 the Start Network commissioned a new framework for localisation, aiming to provide a practical structure to improve the position of local organisations within international aid and to take a critical view of localisation; looking at the quality, and not just quantity of funding, capacity development, participation and partnerships between international, national and local organisations.
One of the recommendations that arose from this review was to build a body of evidence to monitor and analyse the quantity and quality of partnerships between Start Network members and their national and local partners during Start Fund responses. As a result, the 'Start Fund: Learning from Partnerships' was commissioned to explore how members identify and maintain their partners, as well as how partners contribute to the Fund's projects; from design to decision-making, implementation, and learning.
By exploring funded responses that sub-granted some, or all funding to non-Start Network member organisations and conducting interviews with partners and agencies, the Start Fund was able to get an 'on the ground' perspective of what it means to partner in humanitarian response and how partnerships can contribute to localisation.
For instance, between April and December 2017, the Start Fund delivered activities through 64 non-Start Network member partners including:
- International Non-Governmental Organisations (INGOs) (8%)
- National affiliates (11%)
- National partners (64%)
- Sub-national partners (17%)
While international agencies usually partner with local and national organisations to improve the efficacy of their response, usually entrusting them to be better suited to working in specific locations, means relationship qualities can vary.
What did the Start Fund review cover?
This review identified three broad categories of partnership and examined the benefits and drawbacks of each one. From highly collaborative and moderately collaborative partnerships (in which members worked extensively with partners and partners tended to focus on data gathering, respectively), to low collaboration or 'sub-contracting' partnerships (in which project delivery is subcontracted with minimal collaboration), this review examines partnerships throughout the Start Fund project cycle identifying areas where the Start Fund can improve the localisation of humanitarian aid.
As an example, all partners were involved in project implementation and 77% contributed to needs assessments, while only between 46-54% were involved in project design, report writing, Monitoring and Evaluation or post-action reviews. However, even this involvement seems large when compared to local and national partner involvement in Start Fund processes, which was almost non-existent. Only 15% of local and national partners were involved in initiating alerts and 0% in allocation meetings, project selection committees and learning exchanges.
The Start Network was launched to address system-level inadequacies in the humanitarian sector, so seeing the low involvement in our own processes of the people perhaps closest to the crises we respond to, should be a wake-up call.
The question is now, what can we do as the Start Fund to promote stronger local humanitarian leadership? Well, you'll have to read the review to find out.

Ok, I'm sold on Richard Spaven.
He actually had me at Jose James.
But his new cover of Photek's The Hidden Camera is fire.
One reason I like Richard so much is he applies creative constraints. All his innovation and creativity is focused into the name aperture of feel and phrasing. And it works.
For this lesson, I didn't transcribe Richard. I didn't even try to play exactly what he plays. Rather, I tried to capture how he feels.
Hope you enjoy!

Finding a Great Lawn Service in Cedar Park
Your lawn is one of the most important parts of your entire home. If you want your home to look great, you need to do everything that you can to maintain your lawn. As you may imagine, this can be difficult. There are dozens of disparate factors that can influence your lawn at any given time. It takes real skill and ability to keep your lawn in good condition. Generally speaking, there are two main ways to approach lawn care.
Some people will handle things themselves, but others will hire professionals. There are pros and cons to both of these approaches. If you are interested in saving money, it may make sense to handle everything yourself. Sadly, this isn't always a great idea.
The truth is that it's difficult to care for your lawn. You will struggle to improve your lawn if you don't have any experience in this realm. You will also end up spending more money than you intend to. You will want to buy a good number of tools, but you'll also have to spend several hours of your time.
5 Key Takeaways on the Road to Dominating Lawns
In other words, you'll want to talk to a professional. If your lawn is important to you, it only makes sense to work with a Cedar Park lawn service. It's worth stating, of course, that no two lawn services are ever identical. It's up to you to choose a lawn service that meets your particular needs. When it comes down to it, choosing a great lawn service is all about defining your own expectations. Service is relevant, but you should also think about price. By doing your research, you can find a Cedar Park lawn service that meets your demands.
On Services: My Rationale Explained
Never underestimate the value of lawn care. When someone visits your house, your lawn will be the first thing that they see. Maintaining your lawn can be incredibly rewarding. Take the time to think about your expectations before you actually start maintaining your yard. Think about what it is that you're really looking to get out of this experience. If you know what you're looking for, you should be ready to gather all of the relevant materials. It may make sense to purchase a lawn mower, but you should also look at getting a weed eater. Remember that you will not want to handle your lawn care your self if you can avoid. If you don't know what you're doing, it will be very difficult for you to properly care for your lawn. Get in touch with your Cedar Park lawn service team if any of this is unclear to you.

Before I start, I am going to tell you that I made this for the inexperienced people here who do not know how to do this, so please do not post saying "EVERYONE HERE KNOWS HOW TO DO THIS!"
Programs you will need: Eschaton (versions 7.2 and up will work)
1. Open up bloodgulch.map in Eschaton
2. scroll down to the Proj folder and open it.
3. inside is all of the projectiles that the weapons shoot. Choose a projectile for a weapon. For example, the plasma rifle bolt.
4. go to dependency swapper. You will see that there is effects for when It hits certain things. Like a bullet hole for when it hits metal, etc.
5. click and drag so you highlight all of the effects tags. Switch it to "blood AEO human"
6. now try opening the halo demo and shooting your plasma rifle (or whatever guns projectile you changed) onto a wall. A splatter of blood (thus the paint) should show up.
7. Now all you have to do is change the bitmaps of the bullet to look like a paintball.

You should import the grunt/elite blood from B30, and then swap that with the human blood. IMO it looks better.

Spy for Israel Jonathan Pollard was released from US prisons. He did so much damage to US security and could still do more damage that he should have never been released. He is to stay in the US for five years and then want to move to Palestine to settle on stolen lands as part of apartheid colonial regime. He divorced his American wife while in prison and married an Israeli wife. I would not be surprised to see him become an Israeli minister. After all, Israel rewarded those who even killed US Citizens (see for example and). Yet, Israel continues to infiltrate the US at the highest levels (see for example these troubling incidents ) Sunday as almost every day, Palestinian natives were murdered by colonial settlers. In an incident Sunday morning Israeli colonial settlement leader Gershon Mesika rammed a teenage girl with his car, claiming 'she had a knife'. When the girl, Ashraqat Taha Qatanany, 16, from Nablus, fell to the ground, another Israeli paramilitary settler pulled over and shot her multiple times.As in many similar incidents, eyewitness (and in some cases video evidence) showed there was no knives and knives are planted later near the victims. Later Sunday Taxi driver Shadi Mohammad Mahmoud Khseib from al-Bireh was killed when he had an accident and he was murdered by colonial settler as soon as he stepped out of his car to deal with the accident. A third Palestinian was also murdered. Several young people were kidnapped by occupation forces and children continue to be held and abused in Israeli gulags. In other news, the Israeli Knesset is considering more racist laws to add to the dozens of laws already making life hell for us native Palestinians. One new law will allow actual prison sentences for children under age 14 (ofcourse only if they are Palestinian and do something to resist colonial occupation). Another law will force taxation of Israeli non-governmental organizations and apply draconian measures to them if they speak out for human righst and receive funding from abroad (of course Zionist organizations will be exempt from this law).

Westminster Burial Ground, originally Westminster Presbyterian cemetery, was establisted in 1786. In 1852 the church was constructed on brick piers above the graves, creating remarkable catacombs.
The Burying Ground is the gravesite many notable persons, most famous for the burial place of Edgar Allan Poe. Poe was originally buried in an unmarked grave towards the back of the cemetery. In 1875 the school children of Baltimore raised money through a "Pennies for Poe" project and a monument was dedicated to Poe at the entrance of the cemetery. Poe is buried with his wife, Virginia Clemm Poe and mother-in-law Maria Poe Clemm. The Burying Ground is also the final resting place for a number of generals and heros of the American Revolution and War of 1812, including General Sam Smith. Other patriots buried here are John Hollins, Robert Gilmor, John Stricker, Nathaniel Ramsay, James Stirling, John McDonogh, Robert Calhoun, Paul Bentalou, James McHenry, James Buchanan.
The Burying Ground features Maximilian Godefroy's Egyptian Revival Gates located at the Greene Street side of the cemetery. The gravestones throughout the Burying Ground includes decorated tablets, slabs, and granite vaults.
As the resting place of nearly 300 veterans of the American Revolution and War of 1812, many of whom were civic and political leaders, as well as literary legend Edgar Allan Poe, Westminster Burying Ground is a historical and cultural treasure of local, state, and national significance.
The church was completed in 1852 and remained in active use until 1977. In 1974, Westminster was placed on the National Register of Historic Sites. In 1977 Westminster Preservation Trust, Inc. was established under the leadership of University of Maryland Francis King Carey School of Law. The Trust completed a renovation of Westminster Hall in 1983 to preserve and restore the historic features and adapt the church for contemporary use. Westminster Hall is now used for weddings, receptions, lectures, conferences, and other events.
For more information on those buried at Westminster Burying Grounds please see the Cemetery Guide.

DETROIT — Ford Motor Co. plans to begin equipping its 15-passenger vans with electronic stabilizing technology starting with the 2006 model year, a move designed to increase the safety of a type of vehicle the federal government and some motorists' lawyers contend has a significant roll-over risk.
The equipment is similar to a system the automaker introduced on its Volvo XC90 sport utility vehicle and SUVs such as the Lincoln Aviator and Navigator, Ford spokeswoman Carolyn Brown said Sunday. Even without the new safety feature, Ford maintains the vans are safe and reliable.
"The vehicle is a very safe vehicle," Brown said. "People just need to understand ... that it's not a car. It has a higher center of gravity. It should not be overloaded. It should not be driven at excessive speed."
Last month, Ford settled a lawsuit in Texas over a van-rollover crash that killed three young missionaries in Mexico in 2002. The case was the first involving its 15-passenger E-350 Econoline van to reach trial in six years. The trial ended with a confidential settlement negotiated after two days of testimony.
An attorney for the plaintiffs blamed the crash on several design defects; Ford said the cause was tire failure.
In 2002, the government renewed a safety warning for 15-passenger vans, which often are used by churches, sports teams and other groups. When carrying 10 or more people, the vans are three times more likely to roll over than lightly loaded vans, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found.
An NHTSA spokesman did not immediately return a call Sunday seeking comment on Ford's plan.
Dearborn, Mich.-based Ford had already strengthened the safety language in its vans' owners manuals, alerting drivers to the higher center of gravity and warning against abrupt maneuvers. The cautions are similar to those on its SUVs.
Stability enhancement systems help drivers maintain control of vehicles when they encounter such things as ice, snow, gravel, wet pavement and uneven road surfaces. They also provide stability in emergency lane changes and sudden movements.
The systems use sensors to recognize wheel skid and activate the brakes to keep the vehicle on course.
Brown said Ford hasn't determined how much adding the technology will cost or whether that will be added to the van's price.
General Motors Corp. said last year it would begin offering its 15-passenger vans with standard stabilizing equipment.
In 2002, the National Transportation Safety Board called on Ford and GM to improve the safety performance of their 15-passenger vans. In letters to the automakers, the NTSB urged them to test the use of electronic stability control systems to help drivers maintain better control of large vans.

I'm starting this dialogue a little late in the game. I wish I had started blogging BEFORE my surgery, but better late than never! At present I am 6 weeks post-op, having had surgery to remove a large synovial cyst that had been growing in my spine at the L4-L5 level. It was occluding 50% of the diameter of the spinal column, right at the exit of the sciatic nerve on the right side. I'm sharing my story so as to be an example of what a consistant pilates practice can do for everyone and anyone, as we just can't know what life will bring us sometimes, and when the unexpected and unplanned happens, coming from a strong "place", increases our chances of a quicker recovery, allowing our bodies to do what it was intended to do, and that is to heal itself.
When my sciatic nerve was in spasm, due to the pressure of the cyst, I can only liken it to labor pains, which I'm very familiar with, as I'm the mother of 6, all delivered without an epidural ( although I'm sure I should have had one for a few of them, silly me!!), because i was so protective of my spine. My pilates practice had helped my spine to stay flexible and strong, as I moved into my middle years. But now, here I was with a big problem in the very place I had long protected and cared for. Contemplating how to handle the pain, and my daily living, without disturbing the anatomy of my lumbar area, was my challenge. The pain interrupted everything!! My sleep, how far I could walk, my energy level, my workouts, my social life, everything!!, as hard as I tried for it not to.
Thru sheer determination, with a big dose of help from advil and one round of steroid shots in the area, AND the support of June Hines and my fellow instructors, I never missed any work because of it, and actually depended on my pilates practice to keep me strong, keep me upbeat and positive in the face of chronic pain, and to just keep me physically moving, but moving with a purpose. My purpose being to learn as much as I could through my own body and my own symptoms, and apply it to my teaching as an instructor, to help those clients of mine that were also dealing with back problems, whether they be long standing or new.
I want to qualify my writing by saying that the human body is an amazing thing!! AND the practice of Contrology/Pilates, is just as amazing, as it allows the body, through the controlled practice and sequencing of exercises, to help the body heal on it's own, focusing on the strengths, not it's weaknesses, and allowing much needed circulation to get to those weaker parts to eventually heal, and gain strength and flexibility, so that the body can, once again, move as a complete entity. All the while, elevating the spirit and creating balance, equilibrium, and an increased sense of well-being, inspiring an even greater commitment to you one's pilates practice. Where there once was great imbalance, and a sense of disfunction, balance can be restored.
Ok,,,,,now back to ME! I'm going to end this first entry by saying I went back to work for the first time yesterday, and I can't tell you how great it was. I started slow,,in as far as my schedule went, giving just two lessons and also receiving my first pilates session myself, post op. I know , without a doubt, that having the cyst surgically removed was the best thing for ME, even though I struggled with it for about a year and a half. Allowing my body to rest and heal after the surgery was very necessary, but finally arriving at the point where I could start moving again, allowing my body to heal from what my surgeon masterfully performed, was/is, a little piece of heaven!! Yesterday was a great day!! Can't wait till Monday!!!

WASHINGTON (9/25/14)--A fraud alert has been issued by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) regarding international financial institutions that comply with the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA). According to the alert, scam artists posing as the IRS have fraudulently solicited financial institutions for account holder activity and account information.
Both financial institutions directly registered for FATCA compliance and those in jurisdictions treated as having intergovernmental agreements in effect to implement FATCA have been approached by the scammers. The reports come from multiple countries across a number of continents.
"The scammers are taking advantage of the opportunity to contact foreign financial institutions as they are scrambling to get up to speed with the new requirements," said Colleen Kelly, senior assistant general counsel for federal compliance at the Credit Union National Association. "Reporting to the U.S. government is new and foreign financial institutions will have a more difficult time spotting a scam until they have more experience with the new FATCA regulations."
According to the IRS, it "does not require financial institutions to provide specific account holder identity information or financial account information over the phone or by fax or email. Further, the IRS does not solicit FATCA registration passwords or similar confidential account access information."
The IRS has defined the fraudulent solicitations as the well-known "phishing" scams that use unsolicited e-mails and websites disguised as legitimate to deceptively obtain information.
These fraudulent solicitations are known as "phishing" scams.They are typically carried out through unsolicited e-mails and/or websites that pose as legitimate contacts in order to deceptively obtain personal or financial information.
Financial institutions or their representatives who suspect they are the subject of a phishing scam can report the matter to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA).

NWS Tristan heads to Central America for his latest adventure
Day 1: Orange Walk District
Sitting in my window seat on my American Airlines flight that was taking me back to Belize for the first time in eight years, I couldn't help but feel the same buzz that ran through me during my first trip to Central America in 2008. There's just something about this part of the world that makes me feel at home the minute I step off the plane. I can't quite put my finger on it, but I'm terribly excited to venture back into Belize. I've got a very soft spot for jungle...
Can we also take a second to appreciate the show that unfolds beneath us as we fly south from Miami? The Florida Keys, Cuba and this pristine sheet of blue paradise, sprinkled with a pinch of barely submerged islands. I sit back in my seat and smile: I'm almost there!
Greeted at Belize City Airport by Reuben (driver/speedboat daredevil/barman and true gentleman), I meet up with five other guests who are also heading to Lamanai Outpost Lodge in the Orange Walk District Ahead of us lies a 45-minute drive followed by another 90 minutes on a speedboat to reach the lodge which sits on the banks of New River (which owes its name to some creative Brits from the 1800s). I tend to agree with the saying that "it's as much about the journey as the destination". This boat journey didn't disappoint and if the scorching sun hadn't convinced us of where we were, the winding river certainly did. Bend after bend as Reuben goes full throttle, one gets the sense that civilisation is being left far, far behind. Well, that's because it is.
Your neighbours here are howler monkeys, anteaters, coatis, crocodiles and hawks.
Arriving into the lush grounds of Lamanai, we are served a glass of fresh hibiscus water (in this heat, I'm pretty sure I'm drinking heaven) before I am taken to my lagoon-facing bungalow. This'll do. We have unfortunately missed this afternoon's excursions so I take this time to wander around the property and meet the staff.

EVENT DATE: Jun 24, 2013
Mara Conservancy - Rhino Surveillance Unit
We have already raised $15,000 offline!!
Dr. Asuka Takita and Raabia Hawa are two passionate wildlife conservationists of Asian descent that are embarking on a 600km walk to raise raise awareness and funds for elephants, rhinos and lions.
Dr. Asuka Takita - Asuka will be starting her 300km trek from the Chinese neighborhood in Hurlingham (Nairobi), passing by KWS HQ to Oloololo gate of Mara Triangle (Western part of Masai Mara National Reserve). Asuka's walk will pass through Ngong, Suswa, Naikara, Loita, Siana, Olkinyei, Aitong Mararienda and Oloololo.
In 1970s there were around 120 black rhinos in the entire Masai Mara and this number has dropped to 18 individuals in the 80s. Mara is the only park in Kenya with the original black rhino population, unaffected by reintroductions, and its entire population is currently said to be approximately 20 individuals. The imminent threat to this small population is clearly present in the high demand of rhino horn powder in the Asian market and is reflected in the astounding rhino mortality in South Africa where 668 animals were poached in 2012 alone.
Twelve years ago the Mara Triangle had only one known rhino in its area. Through intense anti-poaching measures, the population has increased to eight, sometimes as many as ten animals. The one female has now had five calves, all have survived, and a number of other animals have migrated into the area and move freely across borders. The funds raised will be directed towards the launch of a specific rhino surveillance unit within the Mara Triangle, to monitor their daily movements, using vehicle, aircraft and telemetry tracking to ensure greater security of this critical population.
We need your help to launch the rhino surveillance unit to protect Mara rhinos from the threat of poaching! Please make a contribution and share this page with your friends and family. All contributions are tax deductible.

From the time I was very small, I was led to believe that I was special. I was an only child, so really, my every whim was indulged. Every toy I wanted at Christmas magically appeared and anything I wanted to try I was, pretty much, able to do. As I got older, I learned to love the "gold star." I entered every school contest, almost every club, and played every sport (to be fair, my school was very small and only offered three sports – one for each season).
I grew up believing I could do or be anything I wanted. And pretty much, I have. I'll be honest, though, it hasn't always been enough. As my adult life evolved simultaneously as a parent (I had my first child at 19), so did the world. There was no Internet when my first couple of kids were born and so everything I knew about parenting I read in books or saw on TV. I started to evolve as a person and develop my own passions too, which included writing, homesteading, and dog mushing in addition to my parenting.
And I wanted to be the best at those things. I wanted other people to acknowledge I was the best. I wanted my gold star.

I was told – by someone I trust – that in Texas … the TX Medical Licensing Board is taking a "hard line" on pharmacists changing a pt's prescription (LOWERING daily dose/quantity) without contacting the prescriber.
One of the basics of the practice of medicine is the starting, changing, stopping a pt's therapy.
Apparently when complaints are filed with the TX Medical Licensing Board gets a complaint about a pharmacist changing the pt's prescription – generally involving a controlled substance, particularly a opiate… they are going after these pharmacists for practicing medicine without a license.
All health professional licenses are managed at the state level… and these various state Medical practice act and what they say is the legal practice of medicine do not vary that much.
So if one state is looking into/doing this… the other 49 states could probably find some statue verbiage in their practice act to take action against pharmacist who are changing a pt's prescription without conferring with the prescriber.
So if one state is doing it… it is probably within the other states practice acts to take similar actions
It is also against the Control Substance Act for a legally licensed prescriber to prescribe a controlled substance to a pt that they have not done a in person physical exam on.
Pharmacists have neither the training nor legal authority to do a in person exam and few would not even have the space to do a in private in person exam.
So would a pharmacist found guilty of practicing medicine without a license also be in violation of the Controlled Substance Act ?
It has been reported that some of the chain pharmacies have implemented corporate policies mandating that their employee pharmacists MUST NOT DISPENSE CERTAIN CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES ABOVE A CERTAIN DAYS SUPPLY AND/OR MGS/DAY.
I have also been told my some pts that some pharmacists will call the prescriber and tell the prescriber and demand that the prescriber LOWER the pt's dose and if the prescriber refuses the pharmacist threatened to call the DEA on the prescriber.
Of course, if neither the pt nor the prescriber file complaints with the state Medical Licensing Board NOTHING WILL CHANGE !

As a music touring and growth agency, Music Network has been supporting Irish musicians, stay events and distributing funds for the previous 30 years within the fields of traditional, jazz and classical music. – It's very thrilling to now launch and begin a dedicated music network on YouTube, which also is the primary of its sort in Sweden and the Nordics.
A former elementary school trainer and longtime music instructor, Anna now travels and performs all year long. He's also a co-founding father of FLUR (2001), an impartial file shop, positioned in Lisbon and has been working as a music critic and a radio director and host for over 20 years.
The subsequent Music Community will be led by Mark Badger The meeting begins at 4pm and will finish at 5.30pm on Thursday 29th October 2015 in Room 435 at Birmingham Metropolis University, Millennium Level, Curzon Street, Birmingham, B4 7XG. Fees may be from £80 a day to work with 16 year olds.
Simply because you can get yourself invited to a scenario wealthy with networking opportunities, or you know how to schmooze and play the sport, does not imply that anybody owes you anything. Mission partners, multimedia corporations and research institutes will produce trial functions customising their current applications to present evidence to the effectiveness of the offered community help.
Social awkwardness is a fact of life, and a few of the most brilliant people I do know in this business are visibly uncomfortable in social conditions. With a Master degree in Regulation and Film Enterprise at Sorbonne, it has been 5 years Virginia has developed worldwide initiatives in music and movie areas between France and Brazil.

Under Armour (NYSE:UAA) made 2015 the year of its Connected Fitness growth. Under Armour's 2015 acquisitions of MyFitnessPal and Endomondo (complementing MapMyFitness purchased in 2013), as well as the release of Under Armour's own Record app early in the year, helped the user base of its digital fitness community skyrocket. As of September, the company was reporting growth of 100,000 new users a day, at that time totaling more than 150 million total, and more than 62 million active at least once a month.
Of course, Under Armour isn't the only one working in the digital fitness space. Fitbit (NYSE:FIT) has a dedicated app with tracking and social features for its hardware users, and recently Nike (NYSE:NKE) CEO Mark Parker told CNBC that his company is investing heavily in this space. However, Under Armour is definitely the leader when it comes to building a digital fitness community, not only by number of users but also by engagement.
Under Armour is using its sponsored athletes, getting them active on Record. Skier Lindsay Vonn is posting updates and setting challenges to get her followers involved, and the recent success of Under Armour athletes such as Steph Curry should help grow the network further. Additionally, the company's new Connected Fitness HQ opened this year in Austin, Texas, and the company is building up its team of digital engineers and e-commerce staff rapidly.
Why this matters
In terms of actual revenue, Connected Fitness brought in only $14.4 million in the latest quarter, accounting for about 1.4% of Under Amour's total sales. Still, that was 221% more than the prior year, and Under Armour says Connected Fitness helped to support the amazing 23% sales growth in apparel sales and 61% sales growth in footwear as it built the Under Armour brand.
The future of this space looks huge, as the market for digital health products is expected to reach $120 billion by 2020. For its part, Under Armour plans to reach $200 million in Connected Fitness revenue by 2018, which seems like a reasonable goal given the size of the market. There are also other ways that Under Armour could benefit from its huge community.
- International growth: Under Armour is using its recently acquired Endomondo app, which around half of the adult population in Denmark has downloaded, to introduce that community to Under Armour gear. If successful, this could be repeated in other international markets with local fitness communities, where Under Armour could tap the digital fitness trend to sell more apparel.
- Segment growth: Connected Fitness will also help Under Armour grow specific segments like basketball and running. As a part of its partnership with the NBA, Under Armour is creating the "NBA Fit" app, which will integrate the UA Record app for basketball players and coaches and help to promote UA basketball gear. For serious runners, Under Armour's MapMyRun app has a feature that helps runners track the amount of miles ran in a particular pair of shoes and alerts them when it's time to buy new shoes including recommendations and links to buy UA running shoes.
- Connected clothing: "If we believe that our future is going to be defined by these hard pieces of glass or plastic that sit in our back pockets, you're crazy," Under Armour CEO Kevin Plank said. "It is going to convert into apparel." And if 50 billion retail items will have a connected chip within five years, this leads us to believe the company is still very much working in this space of connected devices and clothing, and having such a large fitness community will make selling those products much easier.
Time to bet?
The capital expenditures in 2015 to make these acquisitions and investment in the space have put pressure on Under Armour's earnings, which in the most recent quarter decreased 13% year over year. However, this earnings decline shouldn't be too much of a concern since the investment has paid off so well in such a short amount of time as seen by the surge in number of users.
"No sign of weakness at Under Armour," says Sterne Agee footwear and apparel analyst Sam Poser. "We would use any decline in the stock price as a buying opportunity."
For now, Under Armour seems to be firing on all cylinders, despite a 20% decline in its stock price since the middle of October. It's for this reason that I believe the sell-off presents a rare opportunity to invest in a great and growing company at a comparatively reasonable price.

Chatting with Maria Menounos
Dont be jealous of Maria Menounos. She works hard to be fabulous.
And the 32-year-old model, actress and TV correspondent wants you to succeed, too.Menounos book,The Everygirls Guide to Life
(It Books/HarperCollins, $19.99), gives pointers on how to keep it all together literally. There are even tips on cleaning out a closet.Shell answer all your questions this weekend at the Loews Miami Beach Hotel, which is having its annual Girlfriends Getaway bash. Its an A-to-Z guide for all women of all ages, says the Massachusetts native. Everything I do, from beauty tips to how I time-manage, eat, travel.Menounos packs a lot into her schedule. She juggles two hosting gigs onAccess Hollywood
and theToday
show with acting and commercials. One day Im in Afghanistan, then Im at the Oscars, then Im in the weeds covering the fires in California, she says. I work seven days a week, 20 hours a day. My life is very extreme.Also extreme was her weight loss soon after graduating Emerson College. Having packed on pounds from a dorm diet, the onetime Miss Massachusetts slimmed down from a size 14 to a size 4, losing roughly 40 pounds. I used to have a horrible fast food diet, Menounos recounts. I was in and out of the hospital because I wasnt eating right.These days, you wont catch her ordering in greasy takeout or pulling into the drive-through. Her meals are carefully planned out.We cant control that many things in life. We cant control the jealous, evil person trying to take us down or our boss screaming at us, she says. But we can control what we eat. The second you clean up your diet you feel like a million bucks.In her purse at all times to ward off pangs: a sliced apple, almonds and gluten-free pretzels. In her fridge: homemade black bean mango salsa, quinoa salad and, a nod to her heritage, Greek yogurt. She also works out when she can, but doesnt obsess.Another survival strategy: organization.When I first started out, I was sloppy and disorganized, she says. But in my industry, you have to be super prepared. I learned a lot just by being exposed to the biggest stars in the world and seeing how they did it.Speaking of stars, does she have any favorite interviews?Well, the dream one was the Obama family [on the campaign trail in 2008 withAccess Hollywood]

Congrats to the hugely talented Sheryl Gwyther, who has been awarded first place in the
Write Links Short Story Writing Competition
The Little Paper Cutter of Fushun
A story for ages 8 - 80
In a small, gloomy paper-cut factory in Fushun's old quarter, Meili hunches over her bench. Her fingers curl around razor-sharp scissors ... snip, snip, snipping. Paper cut-offs fall like winter snow. As if by magic, intricate designs emerge ...
Sounds wonderfully intriguing - congrats again Sheryl!

Serving is exhausting.
I have given eight presentations in the first twelve days of the year, and I am spent.
Though I am filled with joy.
Though I am overwhelmed with satisfaction.
Though I am looking forward to what is ahead.
I am exhausted.
So what will I do?
Tomorrow I will rest.
Tomorrow I will recharge.
Tomorrow I will re-evaluate.
And…why exactly are you telling me this?
Well, because you are dedicated to seeing your dreams come to pass, there will be stretches of time when you have to put your "head to the ground" and work your tail off.
But you and I know that a pace like that can't be maintained forever.
Rest is key.
I encourage you to keep yourself aware of when you need to give yourself a break. And when it is clear that a break is necessary, take it.
You will appreciate it.
The people you serve will appreciate it.
Rest is key.
With that said, I am going to get some rest.
Do you need to do the same?

Julia Child once insisted "nothing is too much trouble if it turns out the way it should". Although Julia was referring to food and the lengths we go to prepare it, chefs are now applying this same principle to their restaurants' environments. From this hyper-awareness of the details, we see a focus that was strictly food-based now broaden to include the restaurant atmosphere. Sights, sounds, and interactions delight social media-savvy patrons, bringing them and their friends back for more.
SoundsA study in gastrophysics by Charles Spence PhD recently showed that the sounds in a restaurant can change guests' perception of food and drinks. In fact, certain music played in a bar has proven to cause customers to buy m...Read more

Global Cuisine in the US
Global Techniques for The American Restaurant
As foodies, most of us want to travel the world – To taste the pastries in Paris, to sample street food throughout Asia, to experience the flavors that are Latin America. Some of us get to do just that. Whether business trips or vacations take us abroad, we all try to find ourselves as guests at a foreign table. This quality that once made us unique and gave us great stories to tell our friends at the neighborhood barbecue has trickled into our nations restaurants. The demands for ethnic foods continue as Americans of all backgrounds discover more exotic flavors and innovative combinations. Millennials are especially looking for something different focusing on specialty and global cuisines. And there is no faking this international trend: Authenticity and traditional ingredients are a requirement.
Asian Techniques
Chefs like Robert Compagnon and his Taiwanese chef wife are blending French food with Japanese sensibility. They showcase Japanese techniques and binchotan (a charcoal that has no flame or smoke but gets very hot) grilling and apply them to French ingredients. Imagine dishes like their grilled husk cherries served over vanilla ice cream. The binchotan tradition highlights these simple ingredients, adding a flavor complexity that diners crave.
Latin Methods
Only Mexico has a greater Hispanic population than the USA, with roughly 55 million living in North America. According to Prepared Foods magazine, that number is expected to double in about 30 years. "Mexican is the new Italian" says Chef Johnny Hernandez of La Gloria in San Antonio. Like those found in Oaxaca City, Mexico, restaurants duplicate freshly made tortillas from masa dough are cooked on the charcoal heated surface of a clay comal (griddle).
These are just a few of many global techniques that have been passed from generation to generation all over the world. While not all of us have the luxury to visit these foreign places, these simple traditions in our local restaurants give us the feeling of being abroad, even if just for a moment.
Eat Well.

The HUD Conference At Ocean City MD
Seminars are a great way to learn quite a bit of information. However, when people are learning about all of the HUD information they need to make sure they are up to date on the changes. This is why it is so important to attend these seminars. Even when people are looking at the conferences in Ocean City, Maryland, they need to realize that places like Princess Royale, can be distracting because of their beauty, it is still important to know some of the highlights of most of these seminars.
Changes in the paperwork is some of the first things that people will find interesting to learn in these seminars. While a lot of people think the paperwork is not going to change often, people need to realize this is not the case. In fact most people will notice the paperwork is going to change on a yearly basis, even if it is some minor wording. However, if the updated paperwork is not being used it could lead to people not getting the right information back, so these seminars are going to often cover those minor changes that are being made.
With these seminars it often allows people to network. While networking may not seem like it is something that works really well anymore, it actually is one of those things that needs to be done. When the networking is being done properly it allows people to make the connections that are needed to know who to contact to get the information they need to have. Without this type of seminar allowing the networking to be done, it could easily lead to people not getting the help that they need to have because they are unsure of who to contact to get their questions answered.
With these conferences people will often learn about resources they did not know existed. Sometimes people think they know about all of the programs that exist to help people out, especially in their local community or with the HUD programs. However, new programs are coming and going on a regular basis. Since this is the case, people need to know about the seminars because they will commonly talk about the new programs or even the older programs that have new guidelines. A good example of this is the changes that were made to Medicaid that most people did not know existed, but after learning about the changes more people were able to qualify for medical coverage than what they thought.
While most people will attend a seminar to learn some new information, they need to realize that sometimes they will want to attend the conference because of the location. Even when people are in Ocean City, Maryland, they need to realize the seminars are the main reason to be in the area. It is key to remember that no matter where people are staying the most important part is to get the right information from the seminar and not just the memories from the hotel.

Risotto AllAragosta e Champagne (Lobster and Champagne Risotto)
- Serves: 4
- Cook Time:
- Prep Time: 40 minutes
- Effort: medium
- 800 g lobster, fresh and cooked
- 135 ml extra virgin olive oil
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 375 g risotto rice
- 1 tbsp capers, finely chopped
- 10 tinned anchovies
- 2 glasses champagne
For the stock
- 1 lobster, shell
- 1 celery, stalk, roughly chopped
- 1 bunch parsley, roughly chopped
- 2 carrots, roughly chopped
- 1 onions, roughly chopped
- 2 litres water
1. Cut the lobster in half lengthwise from head to tail making sure you don't lose any of its juices, collect the juice in a container and set aside. Remove all the flesh in the head and tail, roughly chop and set aside together with the juices.
2. Roughly chop the shell and set aside.
3. Remove the claws and place in a saucepan with the vegetables and water. Bring to the boil and simmer for 30 minutes.
4. Heat 6 tablespoons of the olive oil in a deep frying pan and add the lobster shell. Fry for 3 to 4 minutes to draw out the flavour. Remove the shells and add them to the simmering stock.
5. Add the chopped onion to the olive oil and cook gently. Stir in the rice until all the grains are coated in the oil. Stir in the capers and anchovies. Add the champagne, allow it to evaporate, and then reduce the heat.
6. Gradually add the stock ladle by ladle, allowing the rice to absorb each ladle full before adding more. Continue to do this for about 15 minutes. At this stage when the risotto is nearly ready, add the pieces of lobster flesh with its juices and cook for another 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the remaining olive oil and stir well.
7. Leave the risotto to rest for about 2 or 3 minutes.
8. Meanwhile, crack the lobster claws, remove the flesh and chop it. Serve the risotto immediately, with the chopped claw meat on top.

Happens when we let go.
Little inconveniences in life, that usually mean a change in our "plan," can turn into deep, wondrous, amazing things when we give up, jump in, and let go!
Fortunately these things don't always mean a major life event, making us feel like we've hit our breaking point and forcing us to give-in. They can be as insignificant as misplacing our keys.
Every day is magic.
When life hands you a new idea, do you stop to look, listen and wonder what waits in store?
Burning Man has taught me a few things about liberation and freedom. One thing in particular is that nothing ever works out the way that you think it will or should. However, if you trust that whatever you want or wish for will surface, you can enjoy the experience and marvel at the seemingly magical and spontaneous gift from the Universe… that *you* in fact created.
Every day is magic.
…Do you see it?
Jai. Trust!

Zucchini Lasagna
It's that time of year again ... the fresh produce coming out of the garden is abundant! You harvest the garden one day, thinking you have picked everything, and return the next day to find a zucchini the size of your arm hiding under the leaves ... how does that happen?
In the past, I have opted to make a bunch of zucchini breads and freeze them, but this year I decided to experiment with making Zucchini Lasagna. The results were delicious, and I am excited to share the recipe!
Zucchini Lasagna
- 1 very large zucchini, thinly cut cross-wise into lasagna noodle shaped pieces
- 1 pound ground pork
- 3 gloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup grape tomatoes, halved
- 16 ounces part skim ricotta cheese
- 1 egg
- 32 ounces of your favorite tomato/marinara sauce
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- Salt and pepper to taste
Step 1: In a skillet over medium high heat, cook the garlic until fragrant, then add the grape tomatoes and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add the ground pork to the skillet and cook until browned. Set aside.
Step 2: In a mixing bowl, combine the egg and ricotta cheese and whisk together until well combined.
Step 3: Begin layering the ingredients in a 9x13 prepared baking pan ... start with 1/2 cup of sauce, then top with a layer of the zucchini slices.
Step 4: Spread some of the ricotta mixture on top of the zucchini slices, then top with some of the ground pork mixture.
Step 5: Continue the layering process using the steps above until you have used up all the ingredients ... when I made this myself, I had a total of 3 complete layers. Top the lasagna with panko breadcrumbs and bake in a 350 degree oven for 40-45 minutes.
Allow the dish time to cool and set before serving, otherwise you may find it to be a bit liquidy.

Hope you enjoy and happy {almost} fall!
