Creative Director, Daryl Boothe Talks Designing For Wooter Apparel and Master P's Medusa Brand/
Take one look at Master P's Medusa clothing line presented by Wooter Apparel and it's clear a lot of attention, time, and detail went into creating such a unique and forward-thinking brand. Each piece pops. The collection is diverse. And the artwork and color schemes come to life in a number of ways through the clothing. This is what pops into mind when getting to know the designer and illustrator behind Medusa, Daryl Boothe.
While attending Borough of Manhattan Community College in 2008, Boothe launched Darylenvi Designs, his own creation of designs that led to a variety of independent projects and illustration opportunities, including being a freelance graphic designer with Wooter Apparel in 2016. A year later, the self-described "perfectionist" earned the title of Creative Director of Medusa, a role that's allowed this upstart New York graphic design artist the chance to shine through his creative talents and Wooter's eye for connecting with a culture and a community The result has been another successful collaboration with Master P, an opportunity Boothe remains thankful for each step of the way...
Before getting into your graphic design work with Wooter Apparel, can you share how long you have been into design and how you got your start?
I've been in the graphic design an illustration business for about 12 years. My first big gig was designing for Sprayground (backpacks and bags) in 2015 where my bag design was featured in an ad with Soulja Boy.
Where do you draw inspiration from?
I get my inspiration from all over. My art style is unique. I tend to use a lot of Japanese or Asian elements in my work. I like to make my personal art very intricate and detailed, anything that's different and stands out.
You teaming-up with Wooter Apparel seems like a natural fit...how did that relationship develop, giving you the chance to showcase your work?
I was actually approached by Wooter in 2016 and I worked for the company for a couple of months before moving on to pursue more personal design work and Darylenvi Designs related ventures. Then in 2017, Wooter asked if I would like to design for Master P's Medusa brand and I've been Creative Director of Medusa ever since.
So much care and time goes into what you do. What's it like to have your graphics be featured on jerseys and apparel?
I'm a perfectionist. Everything as to be top notch. I take my art very seriously. I think I'm a veteran in the business and I feel I'm doing a lot of innovative stuff for Medusa. I feel very proud to see my art being showcased by Master P and others.
You've mentioned Darylenvi Designs...did you ever imagine you'd have your own clothing line/brand or designs and illustrations?
It took a while. I had a lot of obstacles but I developed a unique art style that's very hard to duplicate and I feel proud that I have fans that appreciate my clothing and work.
Looking back on your work over these past 12 years as a designer/illustrator, what are you most proud of?
I'm proud of what I've accomplished with Medusa and Darylenvi. I was very proud to see my work on the likes of Breakfast Club (105.1 FM) and TMZ. I will only grow even more and I appreciate Wooter Apparel for the opportunity.
Along with your work for Wooter, Medusa, and your own designs with Darylenvi, where else can people check out illustrations?
Right now you can check out and purchase my ebooks, "Cosmic Omen" and "The Shy Bullet"...

The Rio Summer Olympic Games are over and as we celebrate – or rue – final medal counts, we can begin also to tally up the scorecard for the Games more broadly: were they a win for Brazil? And what do the Rio Games tell us about the future of the world's single most popular festival?
For Rio de Janeiro and for Brazil, these Olympic Games arrived at the worst possible time. Instead of showcasing a rising global power with a booming economy, the Games put a spotlight on the country's most serious economic recession since the 1930s, along with political corruption, rising crime levels, extreme poverty, pollution and a health crisis spawned by the Zika virus.
Hosting the Olympic Games is one of the costliest and riskiest mega-projects a city can undertake. Direct costs alone – everything from building a world-class velodrome to state-of-the-art media facilities – involve mind-boggling sums, reaching US$15 billion for the 2012 London Summer Games and US$22 billion for the 2014 Sochi Winter Games. Rio's total bill for direct Olympic costs plus indirect infrastructure expenses may hit US$20 billion.
Purported benefits
What makes city officials and civic boosters think that such massive spending could be a good investment? A cynic might answer that a sports mega-event is just an opportunity for corrupt politicians to line their pockets with kickbacks and for corporate insiders to reap profits from hefty contracts.
Heavyweights in the construction and hospitality sectors pushed for Boston to host the 2024 Summer Games, for example.
But to sell the Games to the public, proponents claim three types of benefit: revenue raised during the events; longer-term upticks in tourism, trade and investment; and intangible but potent reputational gains stemming from increased civic and national pride and greater international respect.
The claimed economic benefits, for one, have proven again and again to be a mirage. US economists surveying the economic impacts of recent Olympic Games conclude that, with rare exceptions such as the tourism boost Barcelona experienced after hosting the 1992 Games, the Olympics consistently lose money for host cities.
Indeed, economists who study mega-events use this rule of thumb: if you want to estimate the economic benefits an event will bring, take the number touted by promoters and divide by ten.
Feeling good yet?
The feel-good intangibles that don't come with a specific dollar value are no doubt a big reason why many cities are willing to host the Olympics despite knowing the economic costs.
A boost in national pride, such as the 2014 Sochi Olympic Games achieved, might well be worth billions of roubles to the likes of Russian President Vladimir Putin. This helps explain why national governments are willing to plunge massive subsidies into host city bids.
But the Olympic Games succeed in this category only if they change the dominant narrative about a country. The Sochi Games helped reframe the way Russians saw their country, replacing memories of the humiliations of the 1990s with a proud reassertion of great-power status.
Similarly, the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games handed the People's Republic of China a megaphone to the world, which it used to announce that the ancient civilisation of China was once again a confident and assertive global power.
But the Rio Games aren't changing the conversation at home or abroad. For many Brazilians, the Games are unpopular because they encapsulate all-too-familiar problems, from political corruption to systemic failures to reduce widespread poverty. The stark contrasts – billions spent on sports facilities while teachers go unpaid – make it impossible to take unvarnished pride in the Olympics.
Internationally, too, the Games have done more to reinforce old stereotypes than to create a more favourable image. International audiences saw exuberant fans but a country beset by problems.
Sadly, the dismissive judgment wrongly attributed to Charles de Gaulle – "Brazil is not a serious country" – may turn out to be the message that many around the world take home from the Games.
Enduring appeal
Will future host cities be deterred? Last year, Olympic boosters were wringing their hands over public unwillingness to bear the price tag and inconveniences associated with hosting. Unhappy residents of Boston, Stockholm, Oslo and Krakow forced their cities to pull out of bids or bid preparations.
Critics pounced, suggesting that now only dictators would be able to foist the Games on their peoples. But three of the next four Olympic Games will be hosted by democracies: PyeongChang (South Korea) in 2018, Tokyo (Japan) in 2020, Beijing (China) in 2022 and most likely – the decision will be made next year – Paris (France) in 2024.
The International Olympic Committee has begun to nibble away at the edges of the money problem by reducing the complexity of the bidding process and capping the upward spiral in the number of sports and athletes included.
Rio's juxtaposition of poverty and profligacy has made the Olympic Games more morally problematic. And the latest doping scandals have seriously dented Olympic organisers' claim to stand for fair play and level playing fields. Issues like these will provide fodder for critics, but they're unlikely to weaken the world's fascination with its cherished mega-festival.
Over the last century, the Olympic Games – and the widespread belief that they are a force for good in the world – have weathered repeated challenges, from political boycotts to corruption and bribery scandals. They endure despite their manifold flaws because they showcase the entire world and the heights of human achievement.
There's simply nothing else like them.

What are the Best Debt Consolidation Companies in Winfield IL
Who has the best Winfield debt consolidation services?
Winfield consolidation services offer a way of taking multiple debts and taking them all and wrapping them together into one payment. So if you have 5 different Winfield loans, each with a different interest rate and length, a Winfield debt consolidation loan will pay these off and then you will be left with one Winfield loan with a total on the loan of all the paid off loans. The best part is that these types of Winfield consolidation loans typically have lower interest rates than the ones you are getting rid of.
What is the best place in Illinois to find Winfield credit consolidation lenders?
Search online for the best debt consolidation lenders in Winfield IL. The reason the best place to find Winfield debt consolidation lenders in Illinois is because you will be able to find the right Winfield lender for you. Your local Winfield banks may not specialize in the right Winfield consolidation loans for you or have Illinois lending standards that are too stringent. By searching for the best Illinois debt consolidation loans online, you can assure yourself of getting the right Winfield loan.
More On Debt Consolidation Loans in Winfield IL
As I said above, prior to the credit crunch we had basically "easy money" whereby the Winfield banks were encouraged to lend to pretty much anyone in Illinois with a pulse. As the economy tanked and their Winfield debts mounted, a large portion of these people who got easy credit are now looking for Winfield credit counseling programs. These Winfield loans can be obtained but they are just like any other Winfield loan. Your Illinois credit rating, your ability to repay the Winfield loan, an availability of collateral to secure the loan and the current Winfield bank policies on Illinois lending will determine if you get a Winfield consolidation loan or not.
Where Is The Best Winfield Loan Consolidation Service?
As I discussed above, the typical Winfield loan consolidation service usually has a lower interest rate than the standard Illinois loan that is putting you in the poor house. Be aware that just because you are in trouble with your Winfield monthly payments, does not mean that you will automatically get Winfield loan consolidation.
Where Can I find The Best Winfield Debt Consolidation Help?
I spoke of collateral before and this is a big aspect of why Winfield debt consolidation lenders may give you Winfield loan consolidation. Unsecured Winfield loans are the riskiest loans to give by a Illinois lender. This is because if the Winfield loan is defaulted on, the bank cannot get the money back. By requiring collateral to provide security on a loan (as some Winfield banks do for Winfield debt consolidation loans) the bank reduces their risk for the loan. A secured Winfield loan allows the lender to offer the loan to you and then to offer the Winfield loan at a reduced interest rate. Be careful to make sure you pay off the Winfield credit card consolidation loan on time. If you were required to put up collateral and you default, the Winfield bank will take that collateral as a way to recoup their loss.

CRANFORD – After several years of uncertainty preventing Cranford from bringing aboard a permanent administrator, Tuesday night the township appointed someone they are confident can fill the slot.
Terrence Wall, the former borough administrator, municipal clerk and purchasing agent for North Arlington in Bergen County since 2007, officially assumes the role Saturday but will be gleaning what he can from outgoing administrator Joe Hartnett before he departs tomorrow.
According to Mayor Tom Hannen, Wall, a resident of Homdel, made the cut from a field of 28 applicants who responded to an ad the township put on the New Jersey League of Municipalities website in September. Hannen said after interviewing many potential candidates for the position, Wall was best suited for the role.
"I think he brings a lot of energy, experience, commitment and willingness to get the job done," the mayor said Tuesday in an interview with LocalSource, adding he is looking forward to working with the new administrator, who has a masters degree in public administration.
Wall's experience involves two municipalities that are not only smaller than Cranford but have different forms of government.
North Arlington, with a population of 15,533, is a borough form of government with an elected mayor while Keansburg, where Wall previously held the position of borough manager and acting chief financial officer from 2005 to 2007, is also a borough form of government with a population of 10,105.
Cranford, on the other hand, has a population of 22,625 and a township committee form of government. The mayor is not elected but rather selected by the political party who has the majority on the governing body. That means the potential every year for control to shift from Democrat or Republican and a new governing body honorary mayor or chairman of the committee is always at risk.
It has been a long and winding road towards finding the right fit for the township administrator position. Especially after Harnett, only in the position since January, abruptly announced at the end of August he was resigning.
Although one governing body member alluded that Hartnett was unhappy with the fact the governing body was stonewalling his efforts to bring the township back to where it needed to be, there were multiple reasons surrounding his departure.
However, the resignation left township officials and employees reeling. Many department heads and employees spoke openly about their disappointment with Hartnett's resignation, noting he had 45 years of experience and it was the first "sense of stability" the municipality had since the fall of 2011.
In 2011, immediately following Tropical Storm Irene, former administrator Marlena Schmid was put on administrative leave after more than a decade of unstable and controversial leadership. By the end of the year she was asked to leave and it appeared things would get on an even keel.
Police Chief Eric Mason immediately assumed the duel role of interim administrator and police chief, and after just a few months it appeared he would be retiring as police chief to assume the administrator's position full time.
However, other issues threatened his Jan. 1, 2013 appointment, leading to continued instability and questions regarding leadership.
Mason was concerned he might not be able to receive a police department pension while also immediately moving into the position of administrator in the same municipality and receiving a $150,000-plus salary.
The police chief wanted assurances, in writing, from the state that he would be able to collect both his pension and administrators salary but when that failed to materialize, he said he did not want the job. This threw a wrench in the township moving forward but by January officials had rebounded, bringing in Hartnett as interim administrator, making it official in April.
This week municipal employees were hesitant to speak about a new administrator coming aboard and wary of what lies ahead. Department heads refused to comment, while employees preferred waiting to see how things unfold.

I decided to transform those pretty little sprouted Amaranth and Quinoa seeds into homemade bread, cause what's better than that?
This was my first time making this specific recipe so I may make some slight alterations next time, but I do love how this hearty bread came out and thought I would share!
You can read all about sprouting grains and why they are so healthy in my previous blog by clicking HERE. Ancient grains are already incredibly healthy - packed with 'complete' protein (containing all 9 amino acids essential to human health, but not made in our own bodies), and are nutrient dense foods - sprouting only makes them that much healthier. The bread made from these grains should make you feel pretty darn happy about buttering up your buns!
Here's the recipe:
3 tablespoons ground flaxseed
3 cups sprouted Quinoa and Amaranth, divided use
1/2 cup pumpkin seeds, divided use
1/3 cup amaranth flour
1 teaspoon sea salt
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup hot water
1 cup almond flour
Olive oil (for brushing the tops of the buns)
1. Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees.
2. Place flaxseeds in a small mixing bowl and cover with 6 tablespoons hot water. Mix until combined and then let the mixture set for about 15 minutes or until the flax has formed a thick, gelatinous paste.
3. Spoon about 1/3 cup of your sprouted seeds into a large mixing bowl with about half of your pumpkin seeds. Set aside. (It's not necessary to be exact here, I like reserving some seeds to give the bread an added crunch, but if you prefer it more smooth - place everything in the food processor).
4. In a food processor, add remaining sprouted seeds, pumpkin seeds, amaranth, salt, baking powder and olive oil. Cover and turn the processor on it's highest speed until the mixture blends into a loose dough. While the processor is running, add the hot water and keep it going for another 2 minutes.
5. Carefully remove the blade from the processor, scraping off any excess dough. Pour the dough into the large mixing bowl with reserved seeds and add almond flour. Stir to combine all ingredients. The dough should be sticky but thick enough to hold it's shape.
6. I used a 1/4 cup measuring cup to help make my buns even, but you can use any size scoop you want or your own hands to spoon the dough out onto a parchment lined baking sheet about 2" apart. Brush the tops with olive oil.
7. Place an oven safe bowl filled with water on the bottom rack of the oven.
8. Place the buns in the oven on the top rack and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the buns have browned and are cooked through in the center.
Let cool on a drying rack and DIG IN!

What is legal design? | Q&A with Meera Sivanathan (Legal Designer)
Meera is a lawyer turned legal designer originally from Australia and now based in Helsinki, Finland.The last time Meera and I saw one another (circa 2011) we were both studying at Bond University on the Gold Coast. I was studying film and Meera was studying law / commerce.In film school we focused on creativity and design. I can say from experience that law school is typically not focused on these things… and at least in Australia, you have to sign up to events like Disrupting Law to find the intersection of creativity + law (#sorrynotsorry for the shameless plug)!Today, on the back of an impressive legal career both in Australia and now in Finland, it is Meera who is leading the charge in bringing a creative and design-centric mindset to the provision of legal services."Legal design" is a super exciting (albeit little understood) concept and catching up with Meera was an awesome opportunity to find out more.Q&AMeera, thank you for speaking with us Legal Forecasters! We are intrigued by many aspects of your impressive career and particularly your move to Helsinki, your work with the Legal Design Summit, and your new role as Lead Legal Designer at Dottir Attorneys.
- First off, how did one of our best and brightest Aussie lawyers end up in Helsinki?
Long story short, some new and cool opportunities came along for my partner and I in Helsinki, Finland. We decided it was the right time to make the move to the Nordics/Europe and have been making the most of it ever since.
- Is the vibe of the legal profession in Finland any different to ours in Australia?
In general, people and companies adopt a really forward-thinking mindset here in Helsinki, which extends to the legal profession. Passion for technology, design and innovation are longstanding components of the Finnish DNA with companies such as gaming giant Supercell and events like Slush (Europe's largest start-up event founded and held in Helsinki) changing the way things are done.This mindset, geared to disrupting the status quo and evolving with the times is embraced within the legal industry here in Finland. Amazing legal events and initiatives such as the world's first and largest Legal Design Summit are born in Finland and gaining global recognition quickly - it's great to be a part of this positive vibe.
- What tips do you have for other Aussie legal professionals who want to follow in your footsteps and work in Europe?
The opportunities are definitely out there. Do your research to gain an understanding of the legal environment and the firms and companies leading the way in your region of interest. It's important to determine what you want to reap from your time working abroad. This will help you make the right choice in terms of work opportunities. Also, don't be shy to reach out to contacts in your broader network. Based on my experience, Australians are warmly welcomed all over Europe as we tend to have a great reputation for our strong work ethic and friendly nature.Legal Design
- Can you explain what the term "legal design" actually means?
Legal design is the application of design-thinking principles to the practice of law, to make legal systems, products, services and processes more useful, useable, understandable and engaging for all.Presently, contracts are mainly drafted by lawyers for lawyers, our court systems are not easily navigable, terms & conditions and privacy policies are incomprehensible for most consumers and company internal policies and legal obligations are often little understood by staff. This has resulted in a large disconnect between the law, lawyers, companies and the end users of legal information and services.With legal design, we can change this through a human-centered approach in which the users' needs, wants and desires are first identified and then used as a basis to design and develop solutions. The result is legal information and services that are transparent, accessible, visually clearer and as mentioned above, useable, understandable, useful and engaging. When applied in a strategic manner, legal design can improve performance, innovation, brand perception, audience engagement, conversion rates and many other metrics.
- When did you first come across the concept?
I've had the curiosity for combining creativity within the legal practice for quite some time. After several years working as a lawyer I decided to pursue this further. At the start of the year I was 1 of 16 people selected to complete a Master's program fully focused on design-thinking at Aalto University, which is one of the world's top design universities.As for the concept of legal design itself; I guess it started from conversations with Jaakko Lindgren and Antti Innanen of Dottir Attorneys, who were already spearheading the legal design movement globally.
- What is the Legal Design Summit and what was your role as part of it?
The Legal Design Summit (LDS) is the world's first and largest legal design conference founded and held in Helsinki, Finland. It brings together international professionals in the fields of law, design and digital services to discuss and explore how human-centered design can transform the world of law.This year, I had the immense honor of hosting the LDS. In just its second year, over 600 people from around the world gathered collectively to form the world's largest legal design movement – creating an inspiring atmosphere for change and validating the concept of design-thinking in the law. More information from this year's LDS can be found here: http://www.legaldesignsummit.com.Photo is of Justin North (Janders Dean, and TLF Advisory Board), and Joe May (Janders Dean, and TLF United Kingdom) who presented at the Legal Design Summit. 7. Where should people look for more information about legal design? Currently, I'm co-authoring a book on legal design with Antti Innanen and Johanna Rantanen - both recognized thought leaders in legal design, co-founders of the Legal Design Summit and Partners at Dottir Attorneys. It's a privilege to be working with them. The book includes insights from other leading professionals involved in the legal design movement and should be published soon…watch this space.In the meantime, great resources can be found on the Legal Design Lab website, written by Margaret Hagan of Stanford University.
- How did you nab your new role as Lead Legal Designer at Dottir Attorneys and what will be your "day-to-day"? Congratulations by the way!
Thanks Milan. It's certainly exciting to be one of the world's first legal designers.My role as Lead Legal Designer arose after meeting the team at Dottir Attorneys who were already forging the legal design movement globally. With my background in law and my ongoing masters in design-thinking, and their growing company, it was the perfect match.My day-to-day routine is exciting and fulfilling. It's a combination of client focused work and workshops as well as external projects within the legal design space such as co-authoring a book and hosting events. Clients include private and public companies as well as legal and academic institutions. There is no 'typical' legal design project. I'm fortunate to work alongside talented service designers and researchers to solve an array of legal challenges – from redesigning contracts to make them more engaging, to prototyping new online legal platforms and designing better ways to communicate legal information and privacy policies on apps. We've also been quite busy planning and launching Dot. - a brand new sister company for Dottir Attorneys focusing solely on legal design.
- Do you have a view on the importance of creativity in professional services more broadly?
Every company is looking for that competitive edge. Encouraging creativity amongst staff and including those with creative backgrounds in the decision-making process can help bring on board that special x-factor solution, idea or approach that may set a company apart from the pack. Design lead companies such as Apple, Nike and PepsiCo are evidence of this. Understanding the value and benefits of creativity and incorporating it strategically is a key factor to success for professional services.
- Do you have a Legal Forecast. how is the legal world going to change in the next 10 – 15 years?
The legal industry is ripe for disruption. Aside from the obvious automation and streamlining resulting from new technologies like AI, we will also see a shift in the way legal services are provided and the way legal challenges are tackled. The new age law firm will comprise both traditional legal teams as well as interdisciplinary teams of lawyers, researchers, technologists, designers and other professionals. In these interdisciplinary teams, professionals will collaborate and combine competencies to devise new ways to solve complex legal challenges as well as collaborate to design better customer experiences that bridge any disconnect between lawyer and client.

Two years after beginning to adopt the Language Of Commitment as an operational philosophy, McLeas has become a 'full blown' I Can Help You With That™ company. And according to Rick McLea, "We can measure it accurately!" Rick continues, "We started the Molloy process exactly two years ago by listening to what our staff was saying. We allowed Dan's team to assess and grade calls. After listening to the results with Dan's team, we were more frustrated than ever. There was no consistency from branch to branch and there was no direction. Two years after being trained by Molloy's team and after adopting the Language Of Commitment we are a new company. We are energized and motivated at being an I Can Help You With That™ company. We now have clear standards for how to communicate, operationally, with customers and prospects and in our personal lives. It's been an eye opening experience. In Q-1 of 2013 in partnership with Molloy, we launched the first ever ICHYWT™ company wide contest. And it was a total success. On a monthly basis Molloy grabbed 50 calls per branch at random to assess if we were saying, I Can Help You With That™ on the call. Les and I feel it's imperative that we declare to every customer that 'We can help you with that!

Sky News hosted the second Leader's Debate last night from Bristol's Arnolfini arts centre as measures designed to ensure British elections become little more than a US-style gladiatorial contest continue. Eschewing last week's 1980s Countdown stage set look, they apparently bought up some old bits and pieces used for televised darts matches instead. The Kraftwerk-minus-one-member-(and talent) imagery was also gone - this week, the leaders stood behind what may have been designer refrigerators.
Gordon Brown's not looking too healthy these days - going head-to-head with
Cameron and Clegg seems too much for him.
Daveyboy Cameron put on a much better show than last week and was altogether sharper and more on the ball. He wasted no time in getting the knives out for Gordon Brown when he demanded that the PM withdraw leaflets accusing the Tories of wanting to cut benefits for the elderly - Mr. Brown, who looked uncomfortable, claimed that he had not authorised leaflets making any such claim. This could well prove to be one of the biggest mistakes of his life - Cameron's claims were effortlessly backed up by various Labour MPs and pundits right after the show when they produced an assortment of those very leaflets as evidence.
Poor old Gordon! We may loathe the old curmudgeon and we might think he should never have been the Prime Minister in the first place, but we don't half feel sorry for the old sod. While Cameron had done his homework and prepared himself for the previously underestimated foe that is Nick Clegg and his oratory skills, Brown didn't really do any better than last week. He looks exhausted and as though he's beginning to melt - if his temper is truly as bad as has been claimed, we hope he loses the forthcoming Election and retires from politics for the good of his own heart's health as well as that of the nation.
Cameron also made a less successful to attack the LibDem's golden boy, accusing him of being holier-then-thou over the expenses scandal. That may be the case, but the fact remains that Clegg's party came out of that mess in much better shape than the other main parties and, during the early days when recriminations and accusations were flying about the Commons in even bigger flocks than the bullshit, the LibDems gave the impression of doing something about it while Labour and the Conservatives tried to score points.
On the same topic, neither Cameron nor Brown made much of a big deal over the recent allegations that several transfers of £750 from donors into his private bank account. Clegg has since come clean, admitting that he received a total of £20,000 in this way - political suicide in the current climate were it not for the fact that he has a full set of bank statements showing the money was used for its totally legitimate purpose - paying a member of staff. So why was so little made of this? Could it be that Labour and the Tories believe that the Liberal Democrats are, in fact, holier-than-them and knew there was no point in slinging mud where none would stick? They were more than happy to make plenty of noise about it in the run-up to last night's debate, however, perhaps hoping to tarnish Clegg's reputation after he wiped the floor with them last week.
Nick, it must be said, did not do quite so well as previously, though it's our opinion than he still put in a better effort than his rivals - had Cameron have been quite as dire as last week, Clegg may well have aced it once again. There was a brief display of showmanship when he raised a genuine laugh from the crowd by pointing out that Brown's plan to repatriate illegal immigrants is impossible if you don't know who or where those immigrants are. Brown, unusually, attempted a spot of humour too when he said that Dave and Nick's tussles reminded him of his own young sons at bathtime - Clegg retaliated by claiming "It was a good line in rehearsal," which seemed relatively unimportant until The Guardian managed to get hold of copies of overhead photographs proving that the line was in fact pre-prepared and written down on the PM's crib sheet, making Brown look more wooden than ever.
The first poll to deliver results - somewhat unsurprisingly, that organised on behalf of Tory snotrag The Sun - claimed Cameron was the winner with 36% of viewers believing he had been the star of the show, but the very next disagreed and placed Clegg in pole position once again with 33%, Cameron and Brown winning 30% apiece. More results were soon winging their way onto our screens, with the general consensus being that there was no clear winner. However, we strongly disagree with this - there was, in our eyes, a very clear winner: whichever Sky News employee came up with the quite frankly stunning animations projected onto Bristol's Arnolfini building.
Make sure you tune in for next week's show, folks - DavCam is going to be determined to be clear winner in at least one of the debates that he supported right from the start and Cleggy will be wanting to go out in style. It could well prove to be the clash of the New Labour and LibDem titans. Oh - and who knows, Gordon Brown might even bother to get out of bed for a third go.

An Insight Look of Critical Employability Skills Essay
Sorry, but copying text is forbidden on this website!
With a faster pace of everyday life, employability skills are becoming essential in modern society. The employability essential concepts and skill sets represent universal content. They contribute to outcomes that are valued for individuals and for society; bring benefits in a wide variety of contexts and apply to multiple areas of life; and are of use to all individuals, deemphasizing competencies of use only in a specific trade, occupation or walk of life. In this report, we look deeply into six critical employability skills including communicating skills, management skills, problem solving skills, personal knowledge, work experience and teamwork skills.
Each of these skills was studied and analysed to show its importance. All of these employability skills are held to make a focus on an individual's ability to gain initial employment, maintain employment, move between roles within the same organisation, obtain new employment if required and ideally secure suitable and sufficiently fulfilling work, in other words- their employability, more important than the simple state of being employed.
(Hillage and Pollard, 1998)
1.1 Methodology
Six critical employability skills were identified from sources of newspaper advertisings, TV advertisings and Internet advertisings. Each of these skills was studied according to their content and importance. Resources from Internet sites and books were used to study these skills. JCU's graduate attributes were also introduced to compare with the employability skills to discuss the matter.
Critical Employability Skills
Six critical employability skills has been identified from a variety of sources, these include communicating skills, management skills, problem solving skills, personal knowledge, work experience and teamwork skills. In real world, different job roles require different employability skills. A table consist different job roles and skills were drawn according to job advertisement from variety of sources. (See Appendices)
2.1 Communication skills
The definition of communication skills is "the ability to use language and express information."("Definition of Communication Skills," n.d.) It is a way that uses the own language and body language to exchange information with others and understand others easily. It includes speaking, listening and writing. Hence, communication skill is a tool to run throughout business areas and it has significant impact on business. Communication skills may represent in many ways, for example, talking face to face with customers and colleagues, answering a phone call, reply E-mails and writing a report. These actions are required to be done in business workplace all day especially for Manager.
As a result for Manager with good communication skills, it will not only increase the efficiency of staff, but also will create a harmonious workplace that makes everyone enjoys working. Communication skills are also critical when dealing with the customers. Good communication skills will lead to successful business, whereas poor communication will be meaningless even there is a good idea in mind. As Lee Iacocca, former president of Chrysler, once said, "You can have brilliant ideas, but if you can't get them across, they won't get you anywhere" (Rzadkiewicz, 2009)
2.2 Management skills
"Management is about taking the right decisions at the right time and getting them implemented by the right people." (Oak, 2011) Three key factors identified in management skills are making the right decision, at the right time and to the right people. It is the ability of a manager to run a business or a team. For instance, a good manager requires excellent analytical and organizational skills in order to make a right decision to acquire the best returns. It is highly associated with problem solving skills. These decisions also need to be made at the right time.
A doctor or a pilot needs to make life saving decisions quickly and at the right time when emergences are encountered. Time management skills are essential for good managers. With good management over stuffs, it can be sure that the decision can be delivered to the right person to process. Successful business consists of good organizational management and correct decision making. Hence, a manager position requires good management skills to help company obtain profit from business. In fact, communication and management are the two essential factors that would determine the success of a business.
2.3 Problem solving skills
Problem solving skill is widely required in today's employment market. In a business analyst job advertisement(Genesis IT&T, Seek.com.au), the employer requires "a genius at problem solving". It is highly integrated with decision making in management skills. In commercial and industrial operations, we can easily meet tons of problems. It is very hard to predict every single movement in modern business market. Therefore it is an important skill to obtain while engage problems in work process. We shall always be prepared to encounter problems, so we can find solutions to solve these problems. Problem solving skills can be either solving problems for clients or for superiors.
For example, as a legal advisor you shall solve problems for your clients. This is an example of how problem solving skill directly affects the outcome of work. Good problem solving skills simply means good work. A financial adviser could solve problems for the "superior" which is the boss. His problem solving skills will affect the decision made by his superior, which influence the prefermence of the whole firm. Problem solving skills is not only about solving the problem, but also doing it efficiently. It does require not only a good knowledge over relevant matter but also good time management skills.
2.4 Personal knowledge
Problem solving often requires very broad knowledge. Personal knowledge is another major skills in work place. The definition of knowledge in professional field is "familiarity or conversance, as with a particular subject or branch of learning"(Dictionary.reference.com). Knowledge is like the foundation of employability, the major resource of knowledge is from school and college study. Knowledge is the ability to understand the truth of a certain object. With knowledge, people can get a clear vision of what their roles are in the team, and the way to do their own job and cooperate with their colleagues. Like the job advertisement for architect(Bespoke, Seek.com.au), the employer need someone with landscape knowledge to take this job. Knowledge can be variables of forms and almost every occupation requires certain knowledge, engineer, pilot, truck driver or carpenter.
The way to gain knowledge is through study, no matter from school studying or self-studying. From "The ability to understand and follow instructions as well as learn, maintain and apply skills and knowledge are all very important aspects of work"(Australian Govt, 2010), we can conclude that applying knowledge is the core of doing a job. And the knowledge you own determines your employability. Without knowledge, no one can even get a single job done because you will not understand the job goal and do not know the procedures to do the job. Such as a miner, who will need to have the knowledge of different kinds of ores, also he will need to own the knowledge to operate mining machines to gain efficiency.
2.5 Work experience
Work experience can be seen as a form of knowledge, it is also an important employability skill required by both employers and employees in business organizations. The definition of work experience is a period of time working in business and has some knowledge or skills of the world of work. (What is work experience, n.d.) It is important because employers are looking for some candidates who have the knowledge over the working environment. Work experience also covers other different kinds of skills like team working, communication skills and problem-solving skills.
A candidate who has work experience may find it easier than the other candidates to get a dream job because they had faced some of the events in job in other workplace before. More work experience will show more calm and confidence in handing things. Moreover, candidates with full knowledge and skills is choosing the dream work by own rather than being chose by employers.
2.6 Teamwork Skills
Teamwork is a term that means a group of people, but each one do the individual part to perform a joint action and in order to achieve the same goal. (Teamwork in classroom, n.d.) Teamwork is one of the most important relationships in workplace. The best team number of a determine goal team is 6 ~ 10 people. The working steps are one team leader dividing the big job into different part of small work, each member choose one interested and suitable part to finish. After that, collect all the information from every member and compose to a final work to achieve the goal.
Working in a team is more effective than working individually because different people possess different ideas and opinions, the information collected and researched will be more diversified. Teamwork is often required in large business organizations, it could express the character of team members and how they cooperate to produce the work instead of working individually. Modern corporations require job to be done more efficiently and effectively, this makes teams a great role to attempt big assignments, which makes teamwork skills essential.
2.7 Compare with JCU attributes
By comparing the employability skills with the JCU attributes, we could possibly find a certain level of similarity between them. The definitions of two of the main characteristics of graduate skills such as literacy, self-reliance and interpersonal understand are equivalent to the meanings of employability skills.
The definition of teamwork is not only similar to self-reliance and interpersonal understanding, but also connects with it. They are same as leading, managing and contributing effectively to team and working with another people in a group. However, the employability skill of work experience seems different with the JCU's graduate attribute. Actually, work experience covers a large number of skills, such as information literacy, interpersonal understanding, critical thinking and problem solving. Work experience will display all knowledge and skills what a candidate has had before.
In this report, we have discussed six critical employability skills. We can see that these skills are highly integrated and associated with each other. One skill may often require other skills to achieve better result. These skills determine how good a person can perform not only at work but also in everyday life. In order to achieve a good job or even a good career, one shall try to gain these skills. By comparing these skills to JCU graduate attributes, we can easily see many similarities between these two. These skills are more comprehensive and necessary for student facing the real world. It can be seen as a general criterion for job candidates.

Back pain is a common problem that affects many people — an estimated 80 percent of adults in America will experience back pain at some point, according to the National Institutes of Health. It can get in the way of things that matter to you, like your job, time with family, sports or hobbies.
Back pain is a common problem that can range from annoying to debilitating for the people who deal with it. At some point, 80 percent of adults will experience back pain, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH). It affects men and women equally, the NIH reports. It can lead to loss of work and even disability.
Topics: Back
The spine is an important and complex part of the human anatomy, supporting the entire body and allowing us to move. It follows that spine disorders can have significant impact on a person's movement and functioning.
Spine disorders can affect both children and adults. The likely course of treatment depends on what condition you're diagnosed with and when it develops; treatment can range from simple observation to spinal surgery.
This post provides information on the following types of spinal deformities: scoliosis, kyphosis and neuromuscular conditions.
Some lumbar spine conditions may require surgery. There are many different spine surgery procedures and specific options for cases in which lumbar spine surgery is needed. One type of surgery is total disc replacement. This article covers lumbar arthroplasty using an Artificial Disc.
If you have pain in your lumbar spine — or low back — you may be worried you need to have surgery. Many times, back pain can be treated using non-surgical methods, such as rest, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) medication, walking or exercise and physical therapy. In some cases, steroid injections can help.
In this post, we'll cover the basics of lumbar spine anatomy. The lumbar spine is in the lower back (whereas the cervical spine anatomy refers to the neck region).
This curved part of the spine helps support and move the body, and is made up of interlocking bones called vertebrae, ligaments and nerves.

Congressman demands investigation of NSA spying on Congress
If reports true, 'laws were broken and there must be accountability'
A member of Congress representing New York is demanding an investigation of the National Security Agency's spying on Congress. And how the Obama administration is involved.
"If the latest reports are true, laws were broken and there must be accountability for all responsible," Rep. Lee Zeldin, R-N.Y., a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee said in a prepared statement.
Multiple reports this week, including some at the Wall Street Journal, documented that the White House was using secret surveillance to keep tabs on a number of world leaders, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The government captured a number of communications between Netanyahu and his aides.
But the reports confirmed that while spying on foreign leaders, the NSA also "swept up the contents of some of their private conversations with U.S. lawmakers…"
The Journal reported that raised the obvious circumstance that "the executive branch would be accused of spying on Congress."
The report said, "In closed-door debate, the Obama administration weighed which allied leaders belonged on a so-called protected list, shielding them from NSA snooping. French President François Hollande, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and other North Atlantic Treaty Organization leaders made the list, but the administration permitted the NSA to target the leaders' top advisers, current and former U.S. officials said. Other allies were excluded from the protected list, including Recep Tayyip Erdogan, president of NATO ally Turkey, which allowed the NSA to spy on their communications at the discretion of top officials."
The report continued, "Privately, Mr. Obama maintained the monitoring of Mr. Netanyahu on the grounds that it served a 'compelling national security purpose,' according to current and former U.S. officials. Mr. Obama mentioned the exception in his speech but kept secret the leaders it would apply to."
Zeldin, co-chair of the House Republican Israel Caucus, said Congress and the Department of Justice need to investigate spying that included members of Congress.
"First off, Israel is a trusted ally of the United States of America and should be respected as such. The NSA's spying of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and top level Israeli leadership harms our relationship with our greatest friend and ally in the Middle East. Furthermore, and especially concerning, the NSA should not have been recording the conversations between members of Congress and Israeli leadership. It appears that laws may have been broken."
Zeldin himself has met with Netanyahu.
"Israel is a beacon of freedom and democracy in a region of the world that is filled with darkness," he continued, "America's foreign policy should be one that strengthens our relationships with our allies and treats our enemies as our enemies. These new details about the NSA's spying does nothing to strengthen our relationship with Israel and other allies around the world. If only the Obama administration would channel a fraction of its bias against Israel towards more responsible policy towards Iran, America would be made more secure today and in the future."
He continued, "Putting the spying of Israeli leadership aside for a moment, in what interpretation of national security can the president of the United States justify using National Security Agency assets to spy on members of Congress? Is this really for national security or is it for political gain? The Obama administration must disclose the entirety of its role in this questionable activity. The United States Department of Justice should appoint a special prosecutor and the United States Congress should investigate the Obama administration and National Security Agency to pursue full clarity and accountability regarding this deeply troubling activity."

Water damage can occur at any time, and in virtually any type of climate. If you think you're safe simply because you live somewhere warm and relatively dry, you're sadly mistaken – and if you don't take the proper precautions to protect your home and your family, you could wind up paying dearly for that oversight. If you own a home, you should look into purchasing water damage insurance. Unlike your general homeowner's insurance policy, which probably covers certain types of water damage like flooding caused by faulty appliances or burst pipes, water damage or flood insurance will also provide coverage in the event of an "act of God" like a storm-related flood or a hurricane.
When purchasing water damage insurance, another important consideration is whether to go with "current value" or "replacement value" coverage. Current value coverage will reimburse you for the current – or used – value of your home and possessions, meaning that you will receive less money than you would if you had chosen replacement value coverage. In the event that you actually need to replace items that have been severely damaged in a flood or other water-related catastrophe, it's unlikely that current value coverage will be able to provide adequate compensation to cover all of your expenses. Therefore, it's probably a better idea to invest in replacement value coverage, so that the money is there if and when you truly need it. Another consideration is whether you want coverage from natural floods, such as those caused by overflowing rivers. If you live in an area that is at high risk for these kinds of floods, you'll need to look into nationwide flood insurance, which is provided by the federal government. Even if you think you're not a good candidate for this kind of insurance, you may want to investigate your options, since it's difficult to tell if and when a flood is going to strike.
Water damage insurance is essential for any homeowner, but it's especially urgent for certain people to purchase such insurance immediately. If you live in a region that is prone to flooding or a climate that is particularly rainy and damp, you should talk with an insurance agent right away. Similarly, if your home is in a colder area where there is a possibility for your pipes to freeze and then burst during the frigid winter months, you should also invest in the necessary insurance. Finally, anyone who lives in an older home could benefit from the peace of mind that a water damage insurance plan can provide. If you need more assistance, contact an insurance agent or a water damage restoration professional immediately. Don't wait until you're knee deep in water to find out what you can do to safeguard your home!

Lenni Reviews: "Rebel Genius" by Michael Dante DiMartino/
*This book was sent to me in exchange for an honest review.
When I was poking around and saw this book was written by co-creator of the animated shows Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra, I clicked it immediately, not even realizing it was a YA book meant for kids 8-12 years old. But much like those shows, this book can absolutely be enjoyed by adults.
They story centers around Giacomo, a young orphan who lives in a world where artists have entities much like familiars called a Genius which can not only inspire them but turn their art into magic. A tyrant named Nerezza has hunted down all the artists she could find and appointed herself Supreme Creator. After an accident, Giacomo finds himself with his own Genius and is discovered by other children who have been hiding from Nerezza's threat. They embark on a journey to find these artifacts called The Creators Tools what may help them overthrow Nerezza and bring art back to the ruined nation.
I love how there are sketches in the book and the way they are included, it's implied Giacomo is the one drawing them. It added extra charm to an already fascinating story. It's also worth noting that even though this story is labeled YA, it doesn't shy away from some pretty dark stuff. There's a real sense of danger and urgency to the mission and you do wonder if all the characters will make it or even succeed at all. But towards the end after the big twist, it got into some predictable plot points but hey, I'm a voracious consumer of fiction so it's not a major drawback to the story overall. I'm just much more likely to catch tropes, however, I can see it surprising a kid who's reading this.
You can absolutely feel the creative energy and love from the Avatar series in this book. The concept of art manifesting as physical magic is compelling, the adventure is tense and action-packed, and the characters are unique and fun. I am super curious to find out what happens next in what could very well be a rollercoaster of a series. 4.5 out of 5.

The first nationally focused company to develop AND support a network of dermatology-based, SRT skin cancer treatment practices
SkinCure Oncology helps practices capitalize on new technology to treat the ever-increasing incidence of skin cancer, which is expanding with the aging U.S. population. The company was created in 2016 by the founders of Accelitech and Dermatologist/Mohs surgeon Dr. Daniel J. Ladd. Until recently the primary intervention for non-melanoma skin cancer treatment centered on surgical interventions, with Mohs micrographic surgery existing as the "gold standard." However, a new non-surgical alternative now exists, and the numbers of Mohs surgeons are limited. The goal for SkinCure Oncology is to provide better access to this new non-surgical alternative for certain patients, including those with co-morbid conditions of blood thinner maintenance and diabetic concerns. Traditional therapies are not workable for these types of patients. Upon researching the problem, Accelitech and Dr. Ladd realized that there exists a genuine need for non-surgical alternatives and better access to care.

Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid (building block of protein) in the body. The body can make enough glutamine for its regular needs, but extreme stress (the kind you would experience after very heavy exercise or an injury), your body may need more glutamine than it can make. Most glutamine is stored in muscles followed by the lungs, where much of the glutamine is made.
Glutamine is important for removing excess ammonia (a common waste product in the body). It also helps your immune system function and appears to be needed for normal brain function and digestion.
Glutamine also aids in wound healing and recovery from illness. When the body is stressed (from injuries, infections, burns, trauma, or surgical procedures), it releases the hormone cortisol into the bloodstream. High levels of cortisol can lower your body's stores of glutamine.
Athletes who train for endurance events (like marathons) may reduce the amount of glutamine in their bodies. It's common for them to catch a cold after an athletic event. Some experts think that may be because of the role glutamine plays in the immune system. Glutamine can be a crucial supplement for strength athletes as well. It will aid in the recovery of damaged muscle tissue from hypertrophy training as well as strength training.
Supplemental glutamine is often given to malnourished cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy or radiation treatments and sometimes used in patients undergoing bone marrow transplants. Certain medical conditions, including injuries, surgery, infections, and prolonged stress, can lower glutamine levels, however. In these cases, taking a glutamine supplement may be helpful.
You can usually get enough glutamine without taking a supplement, because your body makes it and you get some in your diet. Dietary sources of glutamine include plant and animal proteins such as beef, pork and poultry, milk, yogurt, ricotta cheese, cottage cheese, raw spinach, raw parsley, and cabbage.
Glutamine, usually in the form of L-glutamine, is available by itself or as part of a protein supplement. These come in powder, capsule, tablet, or liquid form. Typical doses range from 500 mg to 5,000 mg daily depending on the circumstance. Take glutamine with cold or room temperature foods or liquids. It should not be added to hot beverages because heat destroys glutamine. Glutamine supplements should also be kept in a dry location.

Donations for Fire Fighters in Big Sur/
While listening to the radio, Dr Ayesha Burns heard that one of the items the fire fighters in Big Sur needed most was eye wash and lubricating drops. That day, we contacted our reps at Alcon to coordinate a donation of over 600 bottles of Systane Ultra and Systane Balance artificial tears. We are excited to be in the unique position to help our community, and our thoughts are with those who have lost their homes and our fire fighters who are working tirelessly to protect further loss.
