Ryley Walker, Folk Musician
When you ask a Chicagoan about Walker, it's inevitable that nearly everyone has their own story to account for the guitarist's tenure in the city. That's as much a testament to his roving, rambling ways, or the fact that his Guild D-35 guitar has endured a few stints in the pawnshop. As much as Walker is a familiar friend to the city of Chicago, make no mistake that he's grown a reputation worldwide as a mesmerizing someone to watch.

Conleth Hill to guest star in season 4
Entertainment Weekly has announced that Game of Thrones star Conleth Hill is booked to guest star for a two-episode arc on 12 Monkeys' season 4.
Hill will play Bonham, a world weary international law enforcement agent facing the last days of mankind. His ancestors — by virtue of time-travel — were given a relic of incredible importance. As a world-ending pandemic spreads across the globe, leaving billions dead in its wake, Bonham has come to doubt the item's truth. His sense of duty out-paces his hope — and in the end, both will be tested.
"I'm a huge fan and have been trying to get Conleth on the show for years, and thrilled the timing finally worked out," executive producer Terry Matalas tells EW.

Making the transition to a permaculture lifestyle with William Horvath of "Permaculture Apprentice:" 002
Welcome to the very first interview on "The Abundant Edge." In this episode I had the pleasure of speaking with William Horvath, founder of "Permaculture Apprentice." William studied permaculture in Australia before quitting his job as a geologist for the mining industry there and moved with his wife back to Croatia where he is from originally. For years now he's been developing his own permaculture paradise and writing and educating about his experiences on his site permacultureapprentice.com. He has also begun teaching permaculture courses for people looking to start their own farms and transition to a regenerative lifestyle. I particularly recommend his series of webinars at the Ecolonomic Action Team here.

Beetroot has been called the King of Vegetables. At its best in winter, beetroot's cheery presence brings joy to the kitchen. It is easy to cook, but is a dense vegetable so takes time. A good vegetable for winter Sunday afternoons.

Browse our other Beetroot recipes here and here, or Roasted recipes here and here. Feel free to browse recipes from our Retro Recipes series – vegetarian recipes from our first blog from 1995 – 2006. Or take time to explore our Winter recipes here and here.
Roast Beetroot
So good straight from the garden. Serve as a veggie, use in a salad or in Beetroot Risotto.

It's easy to forget that many things in the center aisles of the grocery store have a life that's as seasonal as the heirloom tomatoes at your local farmers market. Rice is one of those staples that we forget has a harvest window like that of any other plant.
At his family farm in Ruleville, Mississippi, David Arant Jr., of Delta Blues Rice (deltabluesrice.com), grows rice, about 1,000 acres of it. They've been growing rice since the 1970s.
Warmer weather this year encouraged the farm to begin planting their rice in March, finishing up in April. Planting is staggered over several weeks so the harvest can be staggered as well. "We need one or two rains right after we seed the rice to ensure we get a really good stand. If we don't get rain, we have to water. We let the rice grow to about six inches tall, and then we put 2 to 3 inches of water over the fields."
Those pictures you've seen of rice fields covered with water? That's the result. Having inches of water standing on the field keeps the weeds down.
Come the end of July or early August, the water is drained and the field dries out so that harvesting equipment won't get stuck in the mud. Those harvesting combines weight about 30,000 pounds. Rice plants at that point are about three feet tall and harvest generally begins in August and goes into September.
Freshly harvested rice has a moisture level of about 20 percent. It's dried for about a month until the moisture level is about 12 percent and then it can be milled.
But Delta Blues Rice also has its own mill where it processes a small percentage of the rice it grows. That rice has been so well received that it was a 2016 winner of a Garden and Gun "Made in the South" award and a winner of a Southern Living 2016 Food Award.
"We've been growing rice on our farms since the 1970s but started our own milling in 2014. So many people don't even know that rice is grown in the United States. We like showcasing what the American farmer is doing."
The farm grows one variety of long grain rice and it becomes "white rice," "brown rice" or "rice grits," depending on how it's processed. "The least amount of processing, removing just the outside yellow husk, is what produces brown rice. To make white rice, we polish it, removing the rice bran. Rice grits were traditionally a byproduct of the milling process, broken grains that couldn't be sold as whole rice. But now the demand for our rice grits is so high we have to break the grains intentionally in order to keep up with demand."
Creole-Style Shrimp and Rice Grits
We adapted this recipe from the Arant family of Delta Blues Rice. It's a very simple shrimp and grits recipe and goes together in just about the amount of time it takes to cook the rice grits. Proportions of ingredients are up to you. Want more tomatoes? Add them. Fewer onions? That's fine.

While acknowledging the Greeks' right to determine their own future, Hollande told Greek Mega Channel television that if it appears from the vote that they doesn't want to respect the bailout deal "there will be countries in the eurozone which would prefer to end Greece's presence in the eurozone."

Greece holds its second parliamentary election in six weeks this Sunday, after a May vote failed to produce any workable majority. The leftist Syriza party, which has pledged to tear up the bailout deal, stands a good chance of winning, and even parties which backed the rescue now favour renegotiating its terms.

"I am in favour of Greece remaining in the eurozone, but Greeks should know that this requires there be a relationship of trust," Hollande said in a transcript of the interview provided by his office.

Hollande said he had lobbied his EU counterparts for bloc funds be speeded up so Greece, now in its fifth year of recession, can return to growth.

He pledged he would continue to push for their release and warned Greeks "the abandoning pure and simple of the (bailout and austerity) memorandum would be seen by many eurozone members as a break up."

Hollande, who has pushed for the eurozone to shift its focus from austerity to growth, said the situation has now evolved even further.

"The financial situation is such that we must also have guarantees so banks can be preserved and supported," said the French president.

"We are already in another stage," of the eurozone crisis. "This is what the Greeks must also understand," he added.

The European Commission pressed governments for urgent action on the eurozone crisis on Wednesday, seconding a German call for more integration and structural reforms.

EU leaders are growing international pressure to take bold action when they hold a summit on June 28 and 29 as the eurozone crisis increasingly threatens global growth prospects.

Analysts have called for steps towards fiscal and banking unions that would reduce concerns about the finances of weaker eurozone countries.

When I was a child and my parents separated, I went on walking holidays with my dad. My rubric's always been to walk from home – I'm not a rambler. It's about a sense of being and place and engagement with the environment around me.
I like wild swimming, particularly in the sea – I swim out, then float and look at the horizon. I think that's extremely good for the imagination. I still cycle even though I was knocked off my bike a few years ago, but mostly in the summer – it's too dangerous in the winter in London.
I'm on meds for a blood condition, which lowers my immunity so I can get a bit snippy with people if they're breathing snot in my face. I'll say: 'Look, it's really not great for me to get a cold.'
At 56, I'm up a few times in the night because of prostatitis. I have terrible trouble sleeping and I'm guilty of all the things we tell our children not to do – I stay online, I have my phone next to the bed as I'm concerned about my kids and want them to reach me.
You've got to make your peace with getting older. It's the key to good mental health in later years. In adjusting to it lies a great deal of acceptance of mortality and the reality of your life.
I'm not 100% vegetarian, I'm that awful thing they call a flexitarian. I will have a bit of fish or meat because there's nothing else available. Red meat just started to look unappealing. The ethical stuff is secondary to an aesthetic reaction to it. It's eating a corpse and having it rotting inside you.
I'm an unlikely health guru what with 20 years of serious polysubstance abuse, but all things being equal I've had a healthy life of being Dorian Gray – my fittest years were my 40s, everything went into reverse. All you have to do is walk a bit more and eat a bit less and you'll be fine. And don't smoke.

text: Mercer Management Consulting said in a research report that factors troubling the airline industry are neither temporary nor cyclical and will continue to weigh on impact the industry through the next economic upswing. "We see that the financial viability of many of the large network carriers in the United States is at great risk, to the point where a government-facilitated industry restructuring may be required for the industry to avoid serious degradation," the Mercer report said. The problems stem from changing customer preferences and competition from low-fare airlines. Among Mercer's suggestions for government aid are relief from high transportation excise taxes and relaxed anti-trust regulations. The Amex Airline Index $xal is ascending 2 percent, but is still down 62 percent since the end of 2001.

The changes that occur in the body in response to fasting depend on the length of the continuous fast. Technically the body enters into a fasting state eight hours or so after the last meal, when the gut finishes absorption of nutrients from the food. In the normal state, body glucose, which is stored in the liver and muscles, is the body's main source of energy. During a fast, this store of glucose is used up first to provide energy. Later in the fast, once the stores of glucose run out, fat becomes the next store source of energy for the body.
As the Ramadan fast only extends from dawn till dusk, there is ample opportunity to replenish energy stores at pre-dawn and dusk meals. This provides a progressive gentle transition from using glucose to fat as the main source of energy, and prevents the breakdown of muscle for protein. The use of fat for energy aids weight loss, preserving the muscles, and in the long run reduces your cholesterol levels. In addition weight loss results in better control of diabetes and reduces blood pressure. A detoxification process also seems to occur, as any toxins stored in the body's fat are dissolved and removed from the body. After a few days of the fast, higher levels of certain hormones appear in the blood (endorphins), resulting in a better level of alertness and an overall feeling of general mental well-being.
The kidney is very efficient at maintaining the body's water and salts, such as sodium and potassium. However, these can be lost through sweating, to prevent muscle break down, meals must contain adequate levels of 'energy food' such as carbohydrates and some fat. Hence, a balanced diet with adequate quantities of nutrients, salts and water is vital.

This past week Smart Cincy attended the Ohio Conference on Freight, which was hosted this year by the Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana Regional Council of Governments (OKI) in the city of Cincinnati. The Ohio Conference on Freight is the Midwest's leading freight conference, convening professionals from across North America to share their expertise in the areas of supply chain/logistics, smart transportation technology and federal and state policies supporting freight-related transportation and economic development.
Within the smart transportation technology theme, Smart Cincy Founder and Venture Smarter CEO, Zack Huhn, was invited to speak on a panel dedicated to demystifying hyperloop technology and to also moderate a panel exploring the pros and cons of autonomous transportation systems.
The panel on Hyperloop was focused on answering the questions: Why Hyperloop? How does this technology work? And will these systems live up to the hype? Smart Cincy partners and representatives from Venture Smarter, Drive Ohio, the University of Cincinnati (UC), the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission (MORPC), and the Northeast Ohio Areawide Coordinating Agency (NOACA) convened to address these prompts.
Dr. Shaaban Abdallah, Professor of Aerospace Engineering & Engineering Mechanics at the University of Cincinnati, provided a useful set of baseline explanations of the technology for attendees. He described hyperloops as a fifth mode of transportation (after automobiles, planes, trains, and boats) that is not subject to weather conditions due to the fully enclosed tube in which the hyperloop pods travel. These pods, which are expected to move more freight than humans in the near future as the technology matures, are being designed to move at speeds of 700-800 miles per hour.
Lawrence Hall of NOACA discussed some of the benefits of deploying hyperloops in the context of the Great Lakes "Mega-Region" (a large network of metropolitan regions). Through the use of hyperloops, he said, we have the potential to "support economic development", "preserve existing infrastructure", and "enhance our quality of life".
Dina Lopez of MORPC addressed some of the concerns in the room, "It is natural to be skeptical of new technologies", she said, but went on to remind attendees that many were also leery of adopting trains and railroads when they were first commercialized. Her message was that working together can help to alleviate trepidations. "The American way of not being afraid to collaborate will help this technology to succeed."
Venture Smarter's Zack Huhn left the room with a call to action: "Through these technologies Ohio could create another 'Kitty Hawk' moment, so it is time to plan, forecast, and advocate for effective and scalable solutions."
Are you interested in exploring smart mobility projects in learning about planning efforts in your region? Connect with these leaders and more this October at the second annual Smart Regions Conference in Columbus, OH.
Among the largest 'smart cities' leadership events in North America, the 2018 Smart Regions Conference will convene leaders from all levels of government and across sectors for a dynamic day of programming, including TED-style speakers, power panels, an innovation corridor, the 2018 Smart Infrastructure Challenge project pitches and awards, and much more.

It has been labelled the "worst treatment disaster in the history of the NHS", in which nearly 3,000 people have lost their lives. The Infected Blood Inquiry – an investigation into contamination of blood and products with HIV, Hepatitis C and other infections – had its first procedural hearings at Church House on September 24th 2018. The hearings will continue for three days, to September 26th. Cyrilia Davies Knight is instructed in this inquiry on behalf of 4 core participants; and her team includes Ms Karon Monaghan QC of Matrix Chambers and Mr Philip Dayle of No5 Chambers as counsel.
The inquiry will examine how and why contaminated blood was used freely in the NHS, what was known about the risk of infection, the impact on those affected and persistent claims of a cover-up.
Much of the human blood plasma used in the UK in the 1970s and 80s came from US donors such as prison inmates and drug addicts, who sold their blood, leading to people being given infected blood or infected blood products.
Inquiry chairman Sir Brian Langstaff has pledged a "thorough examination of the evidence." Among the questions that the inquiry will seek to answer, are the following:
- What was known about the risks of contamination by government, pharma and others?
- Were credible risks about contamination ignored?
- Why wasn't the UK self-sufficient in supply of blood or blood products?
- Did commercial interests influence the attitude towards the risk of blood contamination?
- What is the true human toll of this disaster?
- Has there been a cover up about what happened and by whom?
Infected and Affected to be at the heart of the inquiry
The three day procedural hearing commenced with a commemoration service in memory of those who have lost their lives; and those whose lives have been forever changed as a result of this scandal. It followed with the opening statements of chairman Sir Brian Langstaff and counsel to the inquiry Ms. Jenni Richards QC. One message rang out loud and clear : those infected and affected are to be placed at the heart of this inquiry.
The inquiry promises to move as fast as reasonable thoroughness permits. Both the chairman and counsel to the inquiry noted the poignant fact that many who are infected have expressed anxiety about being able to see the inquiry to its conclusion. The inquiry aims to begin substantive hearings from April 30th of next year – and include hearings outside of London. A cautious estimate is that it will conclude its investigation in a year and a quarter after substantive hearings begin next spring.

The Detroit Lions qualified for the post-season for the second time since 1999 when Philadelphia lost 27-24 in Washington.
Lions make playoffs with Washington victory
The Detroit Lions are going to the playoffs.
Detroit qualified for the post-season for the second time since 1999 when the Philadelphia Eagles lost 27-24 to the Washington Redskins Saturday afternoon in Landover, Md.
Detroit (10-4) can still win the NFC North title with victories in Chicago and Green Bay in the final two weeks of the regular season.
Lions coach Jim Caldwell said he wouldn't rest his starters if a playoff berth had been wrapped up early.
On Saturday, Kai Forbath kicked 26-yard field goal with five seconds remaining to snap the Redskins' six-game losing streak.
The Eagles lost their third in a row to fall to 9-6. They need the Dallas Cowboys to lose their final two games to have a shot at repeating as NFC East champs.
The Redskins improved to 4-11. Robert Griffin III returned as the Washington starter and won in his first complete game in more than a year.
He went 16 for 23 for 220 yards with one interception.
Mark Sanchez committed two turnovers for the Eagles, including an interception that led to the winning field goal.

As a CPA, do you sometimes wonder whether what you earn is enough to justify the enormous time, effort, and dedication you expend? If so, an immediate question to ask is whether you are charging the right fees. How to charge fees that correspond to the premium service and expertise you provide your clients – and charge premium fees with confidence – is the subject of this article.
I was talking to a practitioner last week, based out of Indiana. He has owned his firm for 18 years with a fairly large number of clients by most people's standards, 300+ personal tax clients, close to 100 business accounts, new business formations, etc. His revenues: $275k. His complaint: having to work way too hard for way too little.
It's a problem and frustration I seem to hear quite a bit from many practitioners. And it can be fixed, to a large extent by charging the right fees.
Tackle Underpricing
I will share with you how you can get rid of the underpricing issue in your practice. As a CPA, your fees have a big influence on how clients and potential clients value your services.
Think for a moment about automakers like Mercedes Benz, BMW, and Lexus. These companies fetch high prices for their vehicles, even though less expensive vehicles exist in the marketplace. Why? Because they convey quality, craftsmanship, great engineering and so on.
This is why you want to continually adjust your fees upwards – to reflect the premium value and service you want to convey to prospective clients.
Here is where many CPAs hesitate, and it's often a psychological issue. If you're reluctant to raise fees, the first question to ask yourself is the following: Am I delivering low-quality services? If you honestly believe you're coming up short, here is where you can and should work on raising the quality of the services you provide.
Ask yourself and your team these questions:
- How long does it take to deliver our services (financial statement, payroll tax, sales taxes, etc.)?
- What are our response times to clients' questions via phone calls and email?
- How do we fare when communicating with our clients in terms of courteousness, respect, attitude, and caring?
Decide on what these response times and client service criteria should be – and have your entire team commit to meeting them.
Value What You Deliver
But what if you know you deliver excellent service, and you still hesitate? Then the problem boils down to your beliefs. You must convince yourself of the truth: that you are the expert; that you deliver smart solutions to your clients' business problems and challenges.
Always remember that much of the knowledge you take for granted is completely unknown to many people out there, even savvy entrepreneurs. You have expertise, insight, and instincts. And to many people, they are highly valuable. Charge based on the value of the solution you provide – not the hours of work needed to deliver it.
Decide what your new fee structure will be, adjust your firms' services agreement to reflect this, and explain them to your clients.
Next, you'll want to position your practice so that you play an integral role in the success of your client's business. Regardless of the service you provide, it has to be translated to the client as a value proposition. Whether or not they know how to articulate it, your clients want a seasoned professional who can provide them with friendly business, financial, and tax advice in a way they can easily understand. They also want someone to be their financial sounding board for their dreams and future plans. (This is the real essence of your client relationships and what your fees actually pay for.)
You ultimate goal is for clients to view you as an integral partner in the success of their business. Once you achieve that, your fees will be of secondary concern to them. They will see themselves as paying for the relationship – not for a mere transaction. You will be earning the fees you deserve.
Position Your Practice as Expert Partner
In my own CPA practice, I never frame my services as simply preparing financial statements and tax returns. Instead, I market my ability to decipher complicated financial information and deliver insight that leads to smart financial decisions. I am an expert advisor – a "secret weapon" of sorts on their team. Every client wants a secret weapon. And trust me: they're willing to invest in getting this kind of specialized, high-level insight on a regular basis.
Here's a practical example of how this can work. In my firm, I provide a service that I've labeled "financial and tax stewardship meetings." Before I meet with the client, I prepare by reviewing the client's financial statements and I compile a meeting agenda. Then, after the meeting, I e-mail the client a set of meeting "minutes" – notes of what transpired during the meeting. The minutes are a one- or two-page summary of the salient points discussed, plus any action items agreed upon. My clients love this type of proactive service. It's an example of how clearly communicating value can lay the foundation for higher fees.
Before closing, I want to share with you one more secret that has enabled me to charge higher fees.
Many CPAs believe the best way to keep clients happy is to be available to them at all times, but they're quite wrong. The truth is, scarcity is a key factor in setting up your fee expectations. Price is a function of supply and demand. The sought-after CPA with limited availability commands the highest fee.
So what does this mean for you? It means you should look for opportunities to communicate your "in-demand" status. Here's an example: Suppose a client calls and wants to make an appointment with you. Respond along these lines: "I can see you Wednesday between 3:00 and 4:00, or Friday between 11:00 and noon." This conveys that you're a busy professional and that your time is valuable.
If you're not charging premium fees for your services, do some digging into your own psyche and find out what's stopping you. When you're confident in the value of what you bring to your client, adjusting your fees will be much easier – especially when you're identifying opportunities to position yourself as your client's secret weapon and expert partner.
After you do some digging, what are some beliefs that need shifting? Where did those beliefs come from and how can you change that way of thinking moving forward?

Experts report that approximately 75% of women are unable to achieve orgasm through intercourse alone. Even more discouraging, 10-15% of women have never reached a climax, regardless of the sexual act. These startling, and somewhat disheartening, facts raise an important question – what is keeping women from achieving the big 'O'?
There are two key factors to consider when looking into the elusive female orgasm – the physical and the mental factors that influence a woman's ability to experience pleasure during sex. Understanding both of these factors, how they can work both for and against us, and learning what steps to take to overcome any possible roadblocks will lead to better sex. Honestly, who doesn't want to have better sex???
Physical Factors
This shouldn't come as news by any means, but all women are unique. Different heights, hair colors, body shapes, and more. This doesn't just end with the parts of a woman's body that you can see out in public – our vaginas are also unique. Contrary to popular belief, there is no such thing as a 'normal' vagina. Did that just turn everything that you thought you knew about the female body upside down? There are many of you who are currently scratching your heads and trying to figure this one out…
I'm not saying that there aren't similarities or certain factors that carry through from woman to woman. For example, if you are experiencing a yeast infection you are likely going to notice very similar symptoms. However, there are a number of differences to keep in mind.
Every woman has a different size, shape, and color. Another VERY significant change when discussing the topic of sex – every clitoris is a different size and has its own unique placement. This means, guys, the clit may not be where you think! Take some to get to know your lady's body if you want to ensure that you are giving her the appropriate amount of clitoral stimulation.
Understanding the shape of your vagina will help you to better understand what physical stimulation and activities can help you to climax. These are the factors you can't change, but if you know what does and doesn't work for you individually that is a huge step in the right direction!
Kim Wallen, professor of behavioral neuroendocrinology at Emory University explained, "Just as there are physical attributes that would prevent some people from ever becoming a concert violinist, or run the 100 meters in 10 seconds, there are attributes that make it unlikely that some women will ever experience orgasm from intercourse alone."
Mental Factors
Arguably the more complicated of the two areas of discussion, a woman's mental state during sex can play a large part in whether or not she is able to reach climax. Living in a society where the conversation of sex, especially the conversation of the female orgasm, is so often avoided, men and women fail to truly understand where their mind is at during sexual intercourse. From the high prevalence of misinformation to the biases associated with religious shame, women often avoid sharing their thoughts, opinions, and experiences.
LA-based gynecologist Dr Sherry A Ross discussed her knowledge from 25 years of experience in her book 'She-ology: The Definitive Guide to Women's Intimate Health. Period.' In it, she stated that "talking about the mighty V outside of doctor's offices and bedrooms has remained a major taboo." The biggest and most important step that we can take on the journey to better sex is to remove the stigma associated with talking about it. The sooner we are able to engage in open and honest discussion, the sooner we can share with our sexual partners what we need and when we are open to it.
Women need to be mentally 'into the game.' If she's had a hard day, is under a large amount of stress, is working through feelings and emotions related to previous negative sexual experiences or is lacking connection with her partner, then there is little to no chance that she will be reaching climax regardless of how amazing her partner may be in bed. You can increase your chances by openly communicating when it is not a good time, including sufficient foreplay to help get you 'in the mood,' and sharing what activities you enjoy most during sexy time. Most importantly, try not to worry too much about your orgasm, and whether or not you will get there. The added stress may be the very thing that is holding you back!

In case you weren't aware, the NDAA is the National Defense Authorization Act, the most recent iteration of which can be found here under the title H.R. 5515 – John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019. Under section 1290 of the NDAA, we find this:
(A) an urgent and good faith effort to support diplomatic efforts to end the civil war in Yemen;
(B) appropriate measures to alleviate the humanitarian crisis in Yemen by increasing access for Yemenis to food, fuel, medicine, and medical evacuation, including through the appropriate use of Yemen's Red Sea ports, including the port of Hudaydah, the airport in Sana'a, and external border crossings with Saudi Arabia; and
(C) demonstrable actions to reduce the risk of harm to civilians and civilian infrastructure resulting from military operations of the Government of Saudi Arabia and the Government of the United Arab Emirates in Yemen, including by—
(i) complying with applicable agreements and laws regulating defense articles purchased or transferred from the United States; and
(ii) taking appropriate steps to avoid disproportionate harm to civilians and civilian infrastructure; and in the case of Saudi Arabia, the Government of Saudi Arabia is undertaking appropriate actions to reduce any unnecessary delays to shipments associated with secondary inspection and clearance processes other than UNVIM (the United Nations Verification and Inspection Mechanism for Yemen)." (my bold)
As you can see from the State Department announcement, Mike Pompeo believes that Saudi Arabian forces are doing the very best that they can to avoid civilian casualties. By providing this certification, Washington is able to continue to sell arms to the Saudis and the UAE.
While that little announcement was designed for public consumption, here is the entire document dated September 10, 2018 which justifies in detail the facts behind the certification:
"Our support to the Saudi-led Coalition promotes U.S. national security priorities, including on counterterrorism and countering Iran's destabilizing behaviour."
It always seems to be about Iran, doesn't it?
With State's assurances that the Saudi-led Coalition ifs doing its very best to eliminate civilian casualties and ensure that aid reaches Yemenis, let's look at some statistics from the conflict which began in 2014. According to the Council on Foreign Relations, we find the following:
1.) 22.2 million Yemenis in need of aid.
2.) 2 million displaced Yemenis.
3.) 16,200 civilian casualties since March 2015.
United Nations data suggests even worse casualty data with 6,660 civilians killed and 10,563 injured for a total of 17,223 between March 2015 and August 23, 2018 with the actual number of casualties likely being much higher.
While the Certification focusses on the Saudi – UAE Coalition, the United States is also guilty. In 2016, the United States conducted an estimated 35 strikes in Yemen, rising to 130 strikes in 2017 as shown on this table:
A recent announcement by the United Nations Human Rights Office also shows that the situation in Yemen is far different than the State Department would have Congress believe, suggesting that war crimes may have been committed by both sides in the conflict:
Here is a quote from the most recent report dated August 17, 2018 (i.e less than a month prior to Mike Pompeo's Certification under Section 1290 of the NDAA was announced) by the Group of Regional and International Eminent Experts on Yemen:
"Individuals in the Government and the coalition, including Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, may have conducted attacks in violation of the principles of distinction, proportionality and precaution that may amount to war crimes…"
I hope that gives you some perspective on the ongoing war in Yemen, a war that receives almost no traction in the American media. Given that the United Nations has significant evidence that war crimes may have been committed by the Saudi-led coalition, it is fascinating to see that the Department of State is willing to give the Saudis a passing grade when it comes to its treatment of Yemeni civilians. Then again, it shouldn't be terribly surprising given that the United States defense industry is supplying arms to the Saudi-led coalition and that Washington is clearly controlled by the American military-industrial complex.
And, just in case you wondered, this fellow has given his whole-hearted endorsement to Secretary Pompeo's certification of Saudi Arabia:

The other week I went to an event with people I used to work with. While some of them still worked at the same company, the majority of individuals had moved on to different opportunities.
It was great to learn how they were doing and to catch up. While I wasn't looking for a job, I realized if I asked, so many of my former colleagues would be willing to refer me to new opportunities. It's interesting, because in the past it would have never occurred to me to ask them for help. It also occurred to me that if I knew of any opportunities, I would be happy to share it with them.
I think there is this natural tendency to only ask those closest to you for advice and assistance. It's much more natural to ask those you see frequently for help. That said, it's worth thinking about the people you see once in a while, or not at all.
Who do you know in your life that you would be willing to help if they reached out to you? Would you be willing to share a job referral or a helpful bit of information with a former colleague? What about someone who you used to take a class with, or met at a party a few months back?
I think this is what a lot of Sales people are naturally good at that others struggle with – opening themselves up to opportunities and connections. Maybe if instead of thinking "Who can help me?" we can reframe the question to "Who would I be happy to help?" it would be easier to recognize the valuable connections that we have.
So my suggestion to you is this:
Think about experiences that you have had in the past at work, at school and in your spare time. Who do you know who you would be happy to help? Think far and wide here. It could be a few parents in your child's class, members of your running club, or someone you trade insults with in a fantasy football league. Once you get a good, long list going, check on what those individuals are doing now. Then, start reaching out. See if you can set up a reunion with a bunch of people, or just email them and ask if they can keep an eye out for opportunities in your chosen field. While I recommend starting with those who are more closely connected to your field of interest, don't limit yourself to that.
Don't be surprised (or take it personally) when you don't hear back from a lot of those individuals. Things go to spam, get missed or are skipped if someone's doesn't know of any opportunities. More importantly, don't wait for a response from a few individuals before reaching out to others. The more you can connect, the more opportunities you will open yourself up to.

Brazilian Prisoners Shed Light, Trim Time, Drop Pounds.
For prisoners serving lengthy prison sentences in one Brazilian jail, 'the light at the end of the tunnel' may now shine a little brighter, thanks to a new incentive by authorities to benefit both inmates and the local community at large.
On any given day, inmates at the Santa Rita Penitentiary can be found pedalling furiously at stationary bikes recently implemented to charge batteries that power streetlights in the town. By incentivizing the workout—16 hours of biking reduces an inmate's sentence by one day—the program has become a popular one, and looks to potentially expand to other correctional facilities.
Talk about turning the wheels of progress.
Since its inception, testimonials have noted increased fitness and weight loss, as well as inmates gaining a sense of pride in helping their communities rather than being shunned completely from society. Many, having been victims of crime themselves, recognize that their efforts may help reduce further crime and make new areas of the town—most notably its promenade—come to life during the night, as it once did prior to escalating gang violence, widespread vandalism and theft.
Local citizens have come together to assemble the infrastructure necessary, recycling old bikes and having engineers volunteer their time to outfit them and install the batteries for charging. Daily, the batteries are then driven from the penitentiary to the city centre, where they are outfitted into the street lamps.
Though at the time the energy produced is not hugely significant, more wide-scale implementation will continue to inspire communal co-operation, bike-riding, fitness and the exploration of ingenious energy solutions. Importantly, this incentive serves to light a ray of hope for those that all too often feel marginalized while paying their dues by, quite literally, illuminating for them another road.

Galatians 5:2-12
The cry for freedom against tyranny has produced some of history's most unforgettable moments. The cries from William Wallace, Patrick Henry, and Martin Luther King are seared into our memories from movies, news reels, and classrooms. Paul, too, made an appeal for Christians to embrace, enjoy, and stand firm in their freedom. Unlike the earth-bound call for freedom, rejection of Gospel freedom has eternal consequences. In this next turn in Galatians, Paul gives a warning, lays out a diagnostic test, and makes his final appeal.

At the recent Vic ABT rounds it was good to get back out on the water and catch a few bream, although the big ones eluded me. At Mallacoota, my fish came from the schools holding in 3-4m of water using a variety of vibes and soft plastic. With the wind pushing the boat on both days it was important that we used a sea anchor or drift sock to slow the drift down and spend more time over the fish.
Luckily for me both my boaters had this handy tool on board and we could move to the top of a drift run and deploy it. It was another reminder for me of a tool that might only be rarely used in tournaments but could give you that much needed edge on the competition.
Whilst some sea anchors or drogues can be heavy to retrieve made from PVC and like pulling a large bucket of water into the boat, I was impressed with the new Minn Kota drift sock that we used on day 2.
The design means that you pull the yellow rope to collapse the sock and swiftly pull it aboard without water drenching your shoes. It is a strong yet light weight design and collapses into a compact outfit easy to store in hatches. The added harness and float makes it easy to connect to your boats cleats and you can easily keep an eye on the rope when fighting a fish thanks to the added float. If needed you can release the clip and you won't lose your drogue thanks to the brightly coloured float.
If you are a boat owner check out a drift sock. It may be a valuable tool to deliver success with some cold water schooling bream or better still help your drift when trying to get a feed of calamari. Now that sounds more like it.

10 Pregnancy Truths No One Talks About
The first time I was pregnant, I really had no idea what was going to happen to my body. "You don't know what you don't know" wasn't exactly how I wanted to embrace my pregnancy, but it kind of happened anyway.
Since every pregnancy is unique and every family passes along their own old wives' tales... you might feel unprepared for the changes to come, so today I'm sharing a few things that caught me by surprise.
Here's what to really expect during your pregnancy:
1. You might pee when you sneeze.
Yes, it's true. It happens and it's a side effect of pregnancy. A fast-growing baby and an expanding uterus put pressure on your bladder. A sudden movement like a sneeze, cough or laugh, can cause you to pee yourself a little.
It's more common in your second pregnancy, especially if you delivered naturally the first time. Something you can do to help prevent it is Kegel exercises which tighten the pelvic muscles. The good news is most women don't continue experiencing the leakage issues post childbirth.
2. Pregnancy cravings are real.
Cliché but true. You'll start craving things you don't typically want and have aversions to things you love. The theory is that it's your body's way of getting the necessary nutrients and minerals to help you grow baby. Craving milk? You may need more calcium.
You learn to avoid the foods and drinks that make you feel not so good after having them. For example, I'm a big black tea drinker. When I'm pregnant, though, my mouth feels icky after a cup of tea, so I don't drink it as often as I usually would.
With both pregnancies, I craved both sweet and savory foods, cookies and cream ice cream and Hot Cheetos being my guiltiest pleasures. I also experienced an odd aftertaste post meals during both of my pregnancies and a normal taste for foods only resumed post childbirth.
3. It's not easy getting around.
This is especially true in the third trimester when you are at your heaviest and your foundation (your legs) isn't used to carrying all that extra weight. You can be off-balance and trippy so it's best to avoid high heels and flimsy slippers that don't provide support. You also want to avoid compact parking spaces as you'll find it might not be so easy to squeeze yourself through your car door with a baby bump. (And public restrooms, which you may need to visit often as a third-trimester mama, can be a juggling act. I've actually not been able to get into and close the stall door!)
4. Leg cramps will have you requesting calf massages.
OMG they are the worst, and always come when you're trying to get rest. Sometimes these charlie horses are caused by dehydration so make sure to drink lots of water. I've also heard that bananas can help!
5. You may suffer from constipation or diarrhea.
There's a lot happening inside of your body, and your digestive system can either slow down or get over active. As pregnancy progresses, there is physical displacement of the bowel by the growing uterus causing alterations in bowel movements. Other causes in alterations of bowel movement frequency and functioning include changes in a woman's physical activity levels, prenatal vitamins (as they contain iron, which are known to cause constipation), new food preferences during pregnancy, as well as bony and postural changes.
6. Gum sensitivity and nose bleeds.
As you get further along in your pregnancy, your blood volume increases and all over swelling is happening. This can cause your gums to bleed when brushing and random nose bleeds when you blow your nose. Surges of estrogen can also make your gums sensitive. I personally experienced gum bleeding in both of my pregnancies and the occasional nose bleeds in my second pregnancy.
7. Swollen feet are no fun!
They get especially tired and swollen in the third trimester when you're at your heaviest. Some women have to go up one or two shoe sizes during and post pregnancy (but don't start shopping just yet, others had no problems returning to their pre-baby heels).
8. Breathing is not easy, between the baby pressing into your lungs and the non-stop congestion.
It's another (s)not so pleasant side effect of pregnancy. You will be extra boogery and have a constant stuffy nose, and maybe post-nasal drip. Partly caused by hormonal changes, but also due to more blood circulation during pregnancy, which can make the blood vessels inside your nose swell and lead to nasal congestion.
9. Your skin and hair may change.
They say a baby girl steals your beauty but I experienced lackluster skin in both of my pregnancies—both boys. My skin was especially dull in the first trimester and then gradually improved and got a glow about it at the end of my pregnancies. Your hair will be extra thick and you'll have minimal fallout while you're pregnant, but be prepared to lose all that hair that you didn't lose during pregnancy after you have your baby. My fallout started at about 2 months postpartum both times and stopped just passed 6 months postpartum. Why do you think so many new moms chop off their hair?
10. You may delay getting out of bed due to the intense pelvic pain.
Somewhere around the end of the second trimester, mamas-to-be often experience pelvic pain that makes it especially painful to do simple things like walk, get out of bed, put on pants, and climb stairs. You can help build your stability with ice or heating pads, wearing a maternity belly band, and keeping your legs close together when doing things like swinging out of the car or climbing into bed.
I hope this list of things to expect while pregnant helps you because I was unprepared for SO MUCH of it. Do you have anything you'd like to add to this list?
