Courthouse is staying put
News editor
Responding to constituent concerns they claimed resulted from a Marion County Record headline July 23, county commissioners reaffirmed Monday that the county courthouse will remain in Marion.
"I need to straighten something out," Commissioner Dan Holub said. "When you guys were talking about the courthouse, you were not talking about moving the courthouse of the city of Marion, right?"
Commission Chair Roger Fleming and Commissioner Randy Dallke said Holub was correct.
Turning to a Record reporter, Holub said, "That's what your headline indicated, and that's how people read it and took it, and it's bothered me for days now," Holub said.
In fact, what the Record article reported was that Dallke had said the courthouse "is nothing but a pit," that the road and bridge department and transfer station should be moved out of Marion, and that the health department should vacate the historic Bowron building and move to a new building to be constructed by the courthouse.
No mention was made in the article about moving the courthouse.
"There was never any intention to move anything out of Marion other than the road bridge shop, because you've got kids running around big, heavy industrial equipment, and the other one was the transfer station, trying to clean up the smells and everything else," Holub continued.
Dallke reinforced Holub's statement.
"There have been a number of constituents in my area that have talked to me about it. Some of them think it's funny, some of them not, but it was never our intention. We never even talked about moving it out of the city of Marion," Dalke said.
Fleming suggested the discussion was taken out of context.
"You can take certain things and put them in certain orders, and that's what was done," Fleming said. "I read that and I can understand why people thought that."
The condition of the courthouse was part of a broader discussion about future county building needs at the July 23 meeting. It was the focus again Monday as commissioners worked with certified public accountant Scot Loyd on the budget proposal for 2014.
Proposed buildings included a multipurpose office building, a new metal building for the road and bridge department, and a new transfer station.
"That's what I see in our immediate future, besides what can happen to the courthouse," Dallke said.
In addition to air-conditioning and heating upgrades and window replacement, the courthouse needs more exterior repairs.
"Another item that's lurking out there that we don't know who to believe, there's tuckpointing on this building that's needed, and the figure on that was $600,000, or in that neighborhood," Dallke said.
"That's just the upper part," Fleming said.
Commissioners expressed opinions that wherever possible, funds should come from department budgets to pay for building expenses.
"Do you feel the road and bridge fund can support three years in a row of $150,000 or a maximum of $200,000 a year to put back into the road and bridge fund for their own building?" Dalke asked.
"That's the way I suggested to the supervisor, 'I don't want to take out of the general fund for a building for you,'" he said.
"They need to budget to save up for what a new building would cost," Fleming said.
No specific plans have been developed for the building, which made choosing a savings target difficult.
"I don't even know what number to throw out," Fleming said.
Dallke said saving $200,000 per year would be a good start, and budgets could be adjusted when plans are developed.
"If we get two years saved back, I'd be interested in entertaining plans for the third year," he said.
Holub said a metal building could be modified after the initial build.
"You can build for what you need now, and it's easy to build on," he said. "You can add on if needed when needed."
"Do you want $750,000 to be your goal?" Loyd asked.
"$750,000 with a big question mark," Fleming said.
Dallke said the loan payment amount for the transfer station would be a good starting point for saving funds.
"What was our payment, $112,000? I'd like to see at least that," he said. "It's not going to be less than a million; start from there until we get a better figure."
"You may not be able to set aside enough to actually do that," Loyd said. "You may have to set aside a downpayment."
Commissioners settled on a goal of $1.5 million for a general building fund to supplement needs not directly funding through individual department budgets. Annual contributions of $300,000 per year for three years would be added to existing carry-over funds to reach the target.
Clerk Tina Spencer and Loyd were directed by commissioners to continue work on the budget, keeping it within current mill levies. The refined proposal will be presented at the commission meeting Thursday.

'I'm sweating all the time': Landlords turn on heat at some Toronto buildings
Published Thursday, September 21, 2017 10:37AM EDT
Last Updated Friday, September 22, 2017 7:53AM EDT
Despite the unseasonably warm September weather, residents in some Toronto apartment buildings have been coping with sweltering temperatures inside of their units after landlords turned on the heat, prompting the mayor to weigh in.
In compliance with a city bylaw that requires landlords to provide heat in order to maintain a minimum indoor temperature of 21 degrees between Sept. 15 and June 21, a number of buildings already have the heat turned on, despite the scorching temperatures outside.
Mayor John Tory addressed the matter on Thursday, telling reporters that he's prepared to review the city bylaw instructing landlords when to switch between heating and cooling systems.
"I maintain the principle that we have to make sure that people are subject to a reasonable environment in their apartments, hot or cold, during the winter season especially, but do it in a way that is perhaps more accommodating to the fact that weather changes from time to time," Tory said.
A tenant at an apartment building located on 44 Jackes Ave., near Yonge Street and St. Clair Avenue, told CP24 that it's currently 28 degees in his unit.
"It's very uncomfortable," Joel Rubinovich said on Wednesday. "I'm sweating all the time."
Another resident in the same building, Donna Barrett, said she has severe asthma and the hot weather has been difficult for her.
"I am sitting here perspiring and I try to just be still," she told CTV Toronto.
Toronto city Coun. Josh Matlow said he's received the most complaints from tenants living in the midtown Jackes Avenue building.
"Mother Nature doesn't always follow our calendars," Matlow said. "We are having a heat wave in Toronto, yet many landlords are keeping their buildings in awful condition right now."
Despite repeated calls to the building's management, Matlow said Wednesday evening that he was still waiting for a reply.
The landlord told frustrated tenants that they were obliged to turn off the air conditioning on Sept. 1.
Residents said they received a notice from management on Wednesday explaining that the air conditioning will not be turned on again because it takes five days for the system to work and by that time, they would likely need to switch to heat again.
The building's management said a "cooling room" and fans would be available to tenants in the interim.
Residents at another apartment building located at 1500 Keele St. have also been struggling in the late-season heat after the air conditioning was shut off last week.
"It's too bloody hot in here," tenant Joe Bhikram told CTV Toronto on Thursday. "I can't take it anymore, okay. I can't take it anymore."
The man said he hasn't been able to sleep because of the oppressive heat and that he has been relying on a ceiling fan and two other small fans pointed at his bed.
"It's a furnace," he said. "It cooks not just the body, it cooks the soul."
Bhikram found some welcome relief later that day, however, when the air conditioning was turned back on after the property managers learned they wouldn't be fined.
"I'm tremendously happy," Bhikram said. "I'm exicted."
Matlow is asking Toronto landlords to adjust the temperatures of their properties to reflect the weather outside.
"Use common sense and just reasonable judgement," he said. "If you have centralized air conditioning, turn it on. If you have the heat on, turn it off."
Apartment-dwellers in those buildings with the heat on will have to suffer a little longer as the temperature highs are expected to stay above 26 degrees until Sunday in Toronto. The end of next week could bring some much-needed relief when the temperatures are predicted to drop.

I accepted a job offer this morning. It's quite different than what I used to imagine as my career. It's exciting though!
As far as I can tell, I'll be querying and analyzing data from big ol' databases, which is vague, but super interesting.
Many people say stuff about how they never would have guessed where they ended up later in life, so I'm not special or anything. But, it feels strange.
I went from a relatively good student in high school (but I hated it), to a lazy kid working crappy retail and telemarketing jobs, to a Korean linguist in the Marine Corps (wtf?!), to a computer science student, to a stay-at-home dad and hobby programmer. Now I'm going to be an "Operations Research Analyst." It has been a windy path.
I've also changed a lot, hopefully for the better, and life continues to get more interesting.

Not much of a surprise, I'm sure, that I play Pathfinder (Dungeons & Dragons 3.75 ed. for those unfamiliar with the game). The other day I read on a message board someone's complaints about the Monk class in the game. The Monk class is often played–and arguably meant to be played–as a Shaolin type character. Pathfinder monks eschew armor and mostly use their limbs and basic, often Eastern, weapons. The complaint was that such a character didn't belong in medieval Europe.
Other posters were quick to point out that Pathfinder is not set in medieval Europe but in Golarion–a world not unlike Tolkien's Middle Earth. The OP, of course, rebutted that Tolkien's world was a medieval European one. That received a response that, in fact, Tolkien incorporated elements like Oliphants and had far-East Asians in mind for some of the physical look of the Orcs. There was no real attempt on Tolkien's part to make Middle Earth specifically European or set in the Middle Ages.
That had me thinking about how cohesion is created in mythical worlds. Most mythical worlds are tied together hodgepodges of other mythical worlds generated by a writer or collective of writers. But some, like Star Trek or Middle Earth, feel very organic and not necessarily dreamlike, whereas others like the Dark Tower seem completely mythical and purely worlds of the subconscious.
What makes the difference? I'm not convinced it's strong writing or even believability. There's some other element at work that makes Middle Earth seem like a specific place in a specific time while Narnia feels like a dream realm.
I wonder how well I did at mish mashing my hodgepodge together in Catharsis. I blended everything from Theosophic cosmology to medieval fantasy to Asimov's robot series to create the world. Did I do it convincingly? I wasn't aiming for a Star Trek level of "Oh yeah, that's absolutely the real future," but more a Star Wars "Oh yeah, I'd totally buy that I could go to this place."
I can't see my own invented world subjectively. And not being sure what makes the difference, I don't have an objective gauge for telling. What do you think?

The Adam Smith Institute's commentary on the 2014 Autumn Statement were featured in Conservative Home and International Business Time UK: From Conservative Home:
The Adam Smith Institute welcomed the roads, stamp duty and ISA announcements, but said that Osborne's R & D proposal "riskscrowding out private sector solutions" and argued that the Chancellor should make raising the National Insurance threshold "one of his top priorities". It concuded that his plans to reduce the deficit "still seem credible". On business rates, it said -
"A cap on business rate rises is welcome but the rates system itself needs more fundamental reform. The longer rates take to be revalued, the more distortionary the system is, penalising firms located in areas that have done badly since the last valuation. The longer the gap between rates revaluations, the greater the penalty for businesses in poorer areas and the effective subsidy for businesses in richer ones. Ideally the government should move towards a system of constantly rolling rates revaluations. If Zoopla can judge land values accurately on a rolling basis, so can HM Treasury."
From IBTimes UK:
In the immediate aftermath of Osborne's Autumn Statement announcement in the House of Commons, economists, lobby groups and taxpayers hailed the radical move as one of the Conservative-led coalition government's best yet.
"The old stamp duty slab system was one of the worst taxes Britain had and we welcome the chancellor's radicalism in abolishing it, rather than simply tinkering around the edges," said Ben Southwood, head of research at the Adam Smith Institute.
"According to the best economic research, raising £1 through stamp duty imposes £2 to £5 of cost on the economy.
"Though it will still, as a transactions tax, cost the economy heavily, the reform will reduce the economic cost substantially. This is a tax cut for the squeezed middle that will make a big difference to a lot of people's lives. Politically, it could be a game-changer."

If you work for any amount of time on Industrial, Off-road, or Utility style metal working projects, then most likely you will need to bend a bit of solid stock. These stock are varied in shapes. You may need to bend a rectangular, round, or square stock. There are a number of relatively inexpensive benders out on the market to help you bend these materials. Most of which are very good machines/tools. However, the question is...how frequently, and how perfect do you need your bends? If you need an extremely even, exact, or constant bend, then this method may not be for you. If though, you just need to bend some solid stock for a quick, budget project, then this method can save you a good 80-200 dollars.
All you need to use this bending method is:
-Bench Vice
-Thick Walled piping (It's best if the interior of the piping is as close as possible to the exterior diameter of the solid stock)
-Solid mounting surface for the Bench vice
-Solid stock
From there, it's super simple! Check out the video below to see how to use this simple DIY metal fabrication technique.

This is going to be a little bit hard to write, without sounding like "so much sour grapes" but I am going to give it a shot anyway.
We ate Chinese today, there is a little place on the south side of town, been eating there for 15-20 years. We have watched the owners' children grow up, go thru school and on to college, seen the place change decor a couple of times over the years. We have been good, steady customers of this nice small restaurant for quite a long time.
Because we had moved to the country, we had not eaten there in a couple of years, and as luck would have it, today we found ourselves there in the midst of the lunch crowd at a little booth in the back of the room. The food as always was super and we were hungry so it made for a good mix. In some ways, it was almost like before, old home week, call it what you want.
Except for one thing, and that is this.
"No one in the room was speaking English, the entire restaurant had been taken over by people of Mexican and/or Hispanic origin. And no one was speaking the King's English. Which is, if you are like me, a person who doesn't speak the language or understand Spanish, well, it was just a lot of noise. Unfortunately, it kind of took away from the meal and it was upsetting."
It appears that I am now officially in the minority in this country, a white, tax paying member of society. I am also slowly but surely being run out or pushed aside by more than one race of people who were not born here. Mexican's and Asian's are now the two fastest growing segments of our society in America. They are also a lot different from what I am used to.
The Mexicans are proud of their country, culture and lifestyle and try to preserve it as much as possible even when they are living anywhere other than Mexico. The Mexican Americans however don't have to make much effort as the neighboring countries have quite a lot in common.
So, the Mexican American culture is a blend of the culture of both countries, while distinctly being Mexican. This cultural blend stands out amongst many other ethnic groups living in the USA. Now on the other hand, the American Culture, such as it is, fragmented, diverse, and very much mixed, doesn't stand much of a chance of survival in this day and age.
Mexicans while very big on family life (the center of their culture really) are doing well and thriving. While on the American side of the scale, they are divorcing in record numbers and the family unit is quickly disappearing in this country.
A lot of these people are being provided benefits for free, all they had to do is show up. I had to serve six years in the military in order to qualify for some of mine (the very few I have left). Most of us had to go to school, graduate and learn a skill before going to work. All they had to do is cross what was or is basically an open border. The truly sad thing is the way they are exploited by those who hold the purse strings, and often, entered into almost involuntary servitude (wage slavery) by American businessmen.
Only a few pay taxes, in my home state only one in five bother to purchase car insurance, they quickly sign up for social programs and assistance, not only for themselves, but their entire family. In other words, they don't play by the rules, take more than they give back. Now I know that sounds harsh, but it is a proven reality in this country and has been this way for a long time.
You know, if you take a frog and dump him in a pot of hot water, he will jump right out. But take the same frog, place him in a pan of cold water, then apply the heat slowly just a little at a time, and he will stay in the pot until he dies.
"Because you changed his environment, a little bit at a time, not all at once."
Same thing here. Inch by inch, slowly but surely, the fabric of this country is being re-arranged. The signage is slowly shifting to Spanish first and English second, one milepost at a time, this country is going down the tubes (the America that I grew up in and loved).
Today, while sitting in this noisy crowded little restaurant it came home to haunt me. I am slowly becoming a stranger in my own land, and of course, I resent it. This is no longer an immigration issue, this is colonization of a country, plain and simple.
And I honestly feel I have to wonder about this one simple fact of life.
In the end, will there be any room left for me?

The Panthers look to pull off the upset in Vancouver on Thursday night as Roberto Luongo makes his return to Rogers Arena to play his former team.
The Florida Panthers have quietly pieced together a pretty decent season and have some nice victories on their resume but none would mean more to so many people in this organization than getting two points in Vancouver tonight. Roberto Luongo has been spectacular since making his return to Sunrise and is the main reason why his team is in playoff contention in the Eastern Conference and with the second fewest games played in the league this season there is plenty of space for the Florida to move with. The Cats landed the top overall selection a year ago and much like the Avs did the season prior they have responded nicely and are in the thick of a playoff push and like Nathan Mackinnon did for Colorado the selection of Aaron Ekblad is paying huge dividends for Florida. Luongo is slated to get the start and he will go up against Ryan Miller in what should be a great contest.
The Canucks have won back to back games and are in the midst of a huge turnaround after a disastrous season last year and if things continue the way they are we can expect to see Vancouver back in the playoffs. This Vancouver group has undergone some changes from the teams of year's past and while the core remains the same it just seems like this team is a lot more balanced and relying heavily on a complete team game as opposed to riding the offensive abilities of their top line. Ryan Miller has been a huge asset for the Canucks this season and he has a chance to silence the Florida Panthers and former Canucks goalie Roberto Luongo and while the two never played together there is going to be some connection as Miller was officially the replacement of Luongo though there were some others in between. This is shaping up to be a great game and while it isn't always the best idea to consider emotion here but I think Luongo will continue his success and grab a massive win for he and his team in this one at a ridiculous price.

So I have finally finished(mostly) painting one of my favorite conversions that I have ever done. The Dark Apostle. First time doing some free hand drawing, with the help from a tutorial from another word bearer painter
A few things to note on him; His shoulder guards are not 100% done, on his left one I am unsure of what name to put in there, or even how to do writing on silver. If you know how, please reply! And his right I want to get transfers from Forgeworld to put on there but that will be in the distant future. Lastly I need to dirty up his book a little more. But its finished enough to post some pictures up and Ill revisit him a little later.
Bunch of pictures after the jump …
Just to talk about the various colours incase you came here to see how things were done (which I should have put in originally, sorry!)
The armor is Rhinox Hide base, Khorne Red and then highlights with Mephiston. Null in the recesses. Black Shoulder pads were Black + a bit of Eshin, then washed with Druchii. Silver is silver, no higher than ironbreaker though except for extreme highlights.
The bronze is Balthazar Gold, heavy nuln wash, Runelord Brass, then the brightest silver on the extreme highlights.
The cape on the staff was starting with screamer pink, working up Khorne red and then Mephiston highlights with Carraburg wash lightly to help blend it, the text was uthewan grey.
Flesh cape; Bugmans, Cadian, heavy mix of fleshshade and agrax wash, dabs of Druchii and Carraburg here and there. Black and Kislev mixed for the writing and skull. Better tutorial here for all of that though.
Hope you all enjoyed! Would like to hear your thoughts,

Fight! Fight! Fight!
...a brief note on writing and street fights.
Outside my neighborhood subway stop yesterday, two guys stood shouting at each other in what I hoped would turn into a street brawl. The smaller guy was pretty vocal, kept shouting, "You gonna die right here, homie! You don't wanna kill yourself! Touching me is suicide, playa!" (Some of his shit even rhymed.) The bigger guy mostly stood there. He occasionally inched closer while coolly smoking a cigarette and hissing, "Step on. What? Step on." (Not a good fighting stance, the James Dean impression.) The little guy wore ragged Timberlands and cargo pants and had one of those hand-held fans—all ornament and delicate folds—that would fly open as he moved around, flashing the black and maroon pattern of an old saloon dress. Not a switchblade, a fan.
Nothing happened. No punches or broken jaws. Only the b-grade pantomime of Hollywood fight scenes they'd seen as kids. They rope-a-doped themselves into a stalemate while I stood there loving how everything in New York is wrapped in grandiose theatrics and verbal swordplay. There is gesture and mimicry, and then there is the poetics of direct movement, of contact. One is pretty and the other effective. Back home, the roughnecks and hired-hands wouldn't have danced around in heated pirouettes or had time to pull dialogue out of the air. There'd only be muscles and bone and the sound of someone's face caving in.

Dr Luke Kennard is the University of Birmingham's senior lecturer in creative writing. Alongside his academic work , Dr Kennard publishes fiction reviews for The National, an English language newspaper in the UAE, is the Canal Laureate for the Poetry Society and the Canal River Trust, and is both a poet and critically acclaimed writer for the stage. As well as reading his wonderful 2016 poetry collection Cain – published by Penned in the Margins – you can purchase his 2017 debut novel 'The Transition' from Fourth Estate, and come see the man for yourself with the Small Press Showcase at this year's SO: To Speak Festival.
Cain by Dr Luke Kennard
Cain is a collection, formed in thirds, which has at its heart is a series of 31 anagrams of the 355 letters to be found in a passage from Genesis. The complexity of this form bleeds throughout the text; often we as readers must – as Luke Kennard has – segregate and rearrange in constant construction of meaning. Cain isn't easy; it can't be absorbed – read lazily and comprehended. It is a resplendent tapestry of thematic and formal complexities, and it is this puzzling integrity which excites its reader.
The constraint explored in the text's phenomenally crafted centrepiece seems paradoxically liberating for Kennard's writing. The linguistic strain of rearranging the same 355 letters time and again necessitates that poet and reader enter into a kind of implicit contract. We allow Kennard to confuse us, enforce complex exercises in semantic gymnastics and send us spiralling into our dictionaries. We accept that in capitalising "The Lachrymator" he may be personifying the object of tear gas itself, or he may conversely be assigning its irritant qualities to one of the text's three central characters. Should the latter be the case one would assume this to be the sole female of the three, Adah, as she remains un-named in the central text despite being noted as present and active in the surrounding notes. Confusingly though, The Lachrymator is assigned male pronouns. One's choice of interpretation here can greatly affect understanding of the surrounding passage, and moments such as this lead to Cain functioning as a work in which the formulation of meaning is a uniquely involving experience; the collection becomes a collaboration between poet and reader.
Anagram isn't the only notable choice of form in Kennard's work here – throughout Cain the poet presents a smorgasbord of refreshing techniques. The anagrams themselves are presented as the scripts of a fragmented, at times absurdist television show, whilst an often compelling "Inside the Actors Studio" narrates a turbulent production plagued by megalomania. This red-print text provides both a graphical and a contextual background to the meaty centre of the page, featuring interviews with the "writers" as well as aiding in the decryption of Cain's slightly more oblique passages without ever feeling as if Kennard is engaging in a form of poetic hand-holding. In the two sections flanking The Anagrams Kennard includes snappy and thoughtful pages of religious dialogue, a recontextualised slice of a Wikipedia article and a remarkably well executed mimicry of an old-school text based adventure game.
It's not just Kennard's adroit deployment of such divergent forms that casts Cain as such a cover-to-cover standout though – a sizable portion of the acclaim that this 2016 award-sweeper received must certainly stem from Kennard's tricky sense of humour. Kennard's comedic ability is noteworthy through the first book of Cain; 'She really gets you' Cain tells our narrator as a self-scan checkout bleats out 'Approval needed'. Progressing into Cain's complex middle section introduces a new element of effectiveness to Kennard's wit. Playful jokes can take a reader by surprise as they grapple to squeeze the meaning from a segment of Cain's dense wording. Through several hints in the commentary we begin to become aware of the difficulty experienced in dispatching the letter H 41 times in each piece; a quotation from one of the show's chief writers seems to channel Kennard himself in stating 'I had a line of 41 Hs tattooed on my upper arm by this point'. Once this penny drops Kennard's increasingly creative use of his abundant Hs become a source of sudden humour in the text; this drive to spend the letter manifesting at various points as a convenient stammer, as the snore of a side character and perhaps most ludicrously as the vocalisations of a garden hose: 'H20 H20 H20 H20'.
Failure seems a prevalent theme throughout this text; there are failed projects, failed relationships, failed stabs at a desired identity. The narrator is a deeply flawed man, and at times seems to have developed very little across the odyssey that nestles between Cain's gorgeously designed cover pages. With a closing poem that reminds us of our fleeting mortality however, and perhaps even our cursed heritage, one can't help but feel as though sometimes reformation and recovery can be enough. The beauty of this text is in its slippery relationship with interpretation– as with any, the above reading of the collection is an exercise in textual cybernetics. Cain's vastness is in its subjectivity; it is a collection to be read, enjoyed, loved, given to friends, agreed on, argued over and then loved even more.

Thank you for visiting our website.
Cambourne Village College, an academy of The Cam Academy Trust, opened in September 2013 for a first cohort of just 132, Year 7 pupils. Since that time, we have experienced quite remarkable growth, gaining one cohort of pupils per year until September 2017 when we were a 'full' 11-16 school for the first time. We currently have 1045 pupils on roll, our second Year 11 cohort is working towards their summer examinations, and our intakes continue to increase.
The College has enjoyed remarkable success since first opening, gaining an Ofsted Outstanding rating, along with designation as both a Leading Edge and a Teaching School. We are committed to ensuring that all of our pupils achieve their utmost academic potential, whilst providing an outstanding extra-curricular offer and an inclusive, welcoming environment. We sit at the heart of one of the fastest growing communities in the UK and seek to be able to offer a place to all pupils who live in our catchment.
From the outset, our 'Village College' remit has been central to our ethos. We support an active adult education programme, and more than 30 community groups and organisations make use of the school's facilities. This unusual commitment to our local community was a key factor in our winning a prestigious Silver award in the 'Making a Difference' category of the Pearson School of the Year competition, 2018.
The rapid expansion in our pupil numbers in reflected in the ongoing expansion of our facilities. Extra accommodation was added in 2017, and a further wing is due to open in January 2020. A significant extension to accommodate the pupils from the imminent Cambourne West development is planned, while the College is actively seeking to offer Sixth Form provision from the earlier 2020s.
Our aims are summed up below: and further explained in our Ethos Statement.
Aspiring to Excellence
I hope you find our website interesting and informative: if there is anything else that you would like to know, or if you would like to arrange a visit to the College, please do Contact Us.

(Full Disclaimer: Yes its nearly May and I'm still working on this– I got distracted but am determined to finish all 12 days!)
"I use disposable diapers when I travel, cloth is just too hard to use when we're away from home."
Although there are some situations where this may apply, most of the time it isn't hard to make cloth work away from home– it just takes a little planning.
Cloth is going to require a larger suitcase to travel with, especially if you use a diapering system that takes up more space, like AIOs.
I use one large suitcase for Alice when we travel. All her diapers go in the bottom and I pack the rest of her Items on top. If you are really tight on space you can even use a vacuum bag to place your diapers in. This sort of solution isn't recommended for long term storage because the elastics need to breathe, but short term it is fine. The basic considerations you need to make when deciding to travel with cloth are: Flying or driving? and Can I wash at my destination or not? The answer to these questions will help you decide how and what to pack.
We're flying to our destination, what should I check vs. carry on the plane?
If you are flying– you're going to want a larger diaper bag depending on the length of your flight and how long you will be without access to your child's main suitcase. I actually pack nearly identically for a road trip because I don't like digging in her suitcase every time we stop. If you don't mind and have easy access to the suitcase, you can pack a much smaller diaper bag. I pack a diaper for each 2 hours we will be without access to our main suitcase, plus an extra. For our flight home, this equates to about 4 or 5 diapers. We use cloth wipes generally– but I keep a couple packs of disposable wipes around for flying. Security doesn't really like random bottles of water in your carry on luggage (That being said if you must use cloth wipes, just bring an empty bottle through and fill it afterward).
Your kid's checked bag will have all the typical needs, plus her cloth. I pack all the diapers at the bottom and place her clothes and other items on top in varying wet bags and suitcase organizing cubes.
If you can wash at your destination, packing becomes pretty simple– bring enough to get you through to your wash days. For us we like to wash every 3rd day, but if you wanted to pack less you could just wash more often. Also make sure you have appropriate detergent and know what settings to use on the washer at your destination.(If you're staying at someone's house use Amazon to ship laundry supplies straight to their house–saves you space.) I even tested my mom's water since we go home regularly– but if its a one time trip you don't need to bother with that. A couple washes in hard water without softener will not ruin your stash. I also do diaper laundry the same day we pack and take the few dirties we have with us so they aren't hanging out in the pail while we're gone. I use a hanging wet bag for a pail while we're traveling– so the dirties just go in there and I place it in her suitcase. Make sure you bring at least 2 hanging bags so you can have a clean one to use on wash day.
Tip: If you're going to be at your destination longer than a weekend– unpack the suitcase.
It makes it much easier to find what you need on a day to day basis. If you've ever lived out of your suitcase on a vacation you know what I mean.'
I bought cheap dollar store baskets to keep at my parents' for organizing Alice's things while we're there. The closet is really close to the bed so we change her there. I hang our wet bag for dirties on one of the rods in the closet, and the cute little canvas basket at the bottom of the picture is her hamper– I always use her clothing to bulk our diaper loads.
"I can't wash where we're going! Its remote/family hates cloth/etc."
Is there a laundromat nearby? They work fine in the short term. Just select the longest, heaviest wash cycle for both of your washes. I would advocate line drying in this instance– the dryers cost money and sometimes they are not maintained well and get far too hot. If you won't have access to a laundromat you can still cloth– my stash is big enough I could bring enough diapers for a week without washing. I did a weekend trip to a convention where we stayed in a hotel with no issues. I just kept a hanging wet bag for dirties in the bathroom. I wouldn't recommend going longer than that though, even if your stash is big enough. If you're going to be gone longer than a week with no ability to wash your diapers– that's the one instance I would use disposables. If your kid is allergic to disposable diapers you can always use flats and covers and hand wash. You can hand wash other types of diapers but flats will be the easiest to get clean. Here's hand washing instructions. You can make cloth work just about anywhere you have access to water– its just a matter of how much effort you're willing to put in.

The Grameenphone Accelerator is a platform for tech based startups where they find all the resources and backup they need to make their business a success. Startup Dhaka is the strategic partner of the program and both Grameenphone and Startup Dhaka work their best to ensure the long-term success of the incoming startups. In each batch, 5 promising startups get the opportunity to go under a rigorous 4-month long bootcamp. Other than providing in house financial and logistical backup, the teams also get to work under the supervision of mentors coming from home and abroad to guide them.
The 4th batch of Grameenphone Accelerator has been at work for the last one and a half month at GP House. Every week, the 5 startups get to learn about different elements of startups and business. These workshops are designed to prepare and guide the participants on their path to success.
Marcus Ho, author of the National Bestseller- Social Payoff & Secrets to Facebook Marketing and founder of SocialMetric recently took a two day long session on the core and basic foundation of digital marketing.
Marcus believes most startups make the mistake of jumping into running Facebook ads to get likes and drive sales without having a proper insight.
In his words this is like "Trying to jump into the ocean before even learning to swim or attempting to run before learning to walk."
The workshop was broken down into two segments:
* Targeting the right audience
* Planning to drive sales
Marcus discussed the following ideas throughout his session:
Buyers Avatar
Most startups target people who are already aware of their problem, so it is very important how the message gets conveyed and pitched to them. It is a good idea to use statements like "invest in our product" rather than saying "buy our product".
In order to understand the buyer's avatar the startups did a hand on session where they broke down the consumers' mindset into the following parts:
* Frustration: The problems consumers face.
* Goals: What you want to do to solve the problem.
* What They Hear: From newspapers and other avenues.
* What They See: Because people usually believe what they get to see.
Customer Value Proposition
This is the statement that describes why a customer should buy a product or use a service; in short why investing in the product or service would be beneficial for them. To decide the target market it's important to figure out the CVP.
Customers are able to connect to a product or service when it tells them a story that empathizes with them. The core idea of customer value proposition is to target the right people and give them the right offer that helps them solve their problems and frustrations.
Minimum Viable Offer
A crucial step for every startup is to come up with a minimum viable offer to get the consumers hooked to the minimum viable product or service to be sold. The idea is to offer a significant feature of the software for trial instead of giving up the entire service. For example, Uber gives customers their first ride for free so that they get the chance to experience an Uber and get attached to it. Others features given for free trial can be free sample beauty products, software for free download, discount, free shipping etc. While planning your journey, firstly you should determine the kind of media platform you will use (Paid, Own and Earned). The medium viable offer introduces consumer to the product which can drive the Front-end where consumers develop low level of commitment with the product. And finally the consumers reach the Back-end where they form a high level of commitment with the product and get hooked. At any given point re-engagement journey should be launched from the top to incorporate users who had dropped out.
Landing Page
Marcus discussed 7 key points to create a successful landing pages:
* Attention Flow: Page needs to be simple and eye catching.
* Compelling Headline: Headlines can be of different types depending on the kind of purpose the startup will serve. (Testimonial, problem solution)
* Bullets: Use of bullets and transitioning features into benefits enable greater connection between consumers and startups.
* Hero Shot: Use an image that adds value and credential.
* Call to Action: Needs to include in the landing page above the fold.
* Contrasting Button Color: Needs to be distinctive to draw attention of consumers.
The workshop was concluded with the startups getting a hands on experience of creating their own Landing Page.
In conclusion, Marcus expressed that Grameenphone Accelerator has always been a happy experience for him in terms of hospitality and opportunity. The startup scene in Bangladesh has a lot of potential as there are a lot of sectors where there are room for growth. Also, the people of Bangladesh are very open minded when it comes to adapting to new technology, so this opportunity shouldn't be missed out on.

Her Tenant
Sherry Derr Wille
Paperback booksXYZ price: $16.95 $0.85 of your order (5%) will be donated to the school of your choice.
Dee Williams had no desire to be a landlady, but the duplex needed to be rented. After meeting Bryce, she is taken by the handsome widower.
Bryce has come to Minter to start a new life. He is pleasantly surprised to find his new landlady is a very attractive divorcee.
"DeVona Williams, this is Bryce Devlin."
Bryce pulled himself from his memories to the introduction Grant was making. "It's nice to meet you," Bryce said, accepting her outstretched hand.
"I heard Grant and Lane had a houseguest. I do hope you'll call me Dee, though. All of my friends do. Lane told me you're from Chicago. I hope you like living in Minter. It's not like being in a big city, but then a small town does have a lot to offer."
It certainly does. I can't remember ever seeing anyone as beautiful as this woman back home. Of course, maybe I wasn't looking. Too many of Sue's friends were ready to shake their fingers at me if I so much as thought about straying from her memory.
"Do you mind if Bryce and I check out the house while you girls chit-chat?" Grant asked, before Bryce had a chance to acknowledge the woman's comment.
"Suit yourselves. I hope you find lots of stuff you want."
Bryce turned away when the women began to talk about the sale. The sadness in Dee's eyes and voice hit him hard. He remembered the feeling of loss all too vividly.
Once inside the duplex, he was suddenly at home. He recalled his mother saying she always knew which houses they should buy as soon as she walked through the door. At the time he'd laughed at the very idea of such a thing. Now he knew exactly what she meant.
The living room was spacious. Some of the former tenant's furnishings were scattered in the places they had occupied for years. To his right, a small table sat in front of a large window. Just outside, several birdfeeders, which were now empty, waited for someone to fill them and enjoy the birds that came looking for food. Following the flow of the floor plan, he stepped into the galley kitchen with its over abundance of cupboards, then made his way to the bedroom area. From the hall, he noticed two good-sized rooms with double closets as well as a small bathroom.
"So, what do you think?" Grant inquired.
Bryce turned to face his friend. "Are you trying to push this place on me?"
"In a way. Dee is very vulnerable right now. Who knows what she might get in the way of a renter? Don't get me wrong, she's a very capable woman, but she doesn't know the first thing about being a landlord. Lane and I--"
Bryce held up his hand. "You certainly haven't changed. As I recall, you always did look out for everyone else."
Mild Mannered receptionist, wife, mother and grandmother by day, Sherry Derr-Wille spends her nights writing and writing and writing. Having been inspired by an English assignment in her sophomore year of high school, she had never quite finished the assignment. New stories pop into her head every day with never enough time to write them all.
A Wisconsin native, she grew up a country girl, but enjoys her "city" home. She and her husband of over 40 years, Bob, live in a mid-sized town close to the Illinois border, where she works as a receptionist for an insurance office and he is retired. Deeming Bob "A Saint" for putting up with her, she has never regretted marrying her high school sweetheart just two days after graduation in 1964.
Becky's Rebel: Ms. Derr-Wille brings the spirit of understanding the plight of the Civil War survivors. Becky Larson and her Rebel, Joe Kemmerman, reminds us that love and faith overcome all obstacles. A must read for those who still need to understand there is no different in the hearts of people, North or South. Becky's Rebel will make you laugh, shed a tear or two and have you falling in love, once again, with a time and it's people that is uniquely America's ... the Civil War era. -- Debbie Fritter – The Perfect Match – Whippoorwill Press
Hello Do You Know Me is a wonderful heart-warming love story. It touches your heart from the very beginning. It has everything that makes you turn the pages. Matt Bratzman has lived another man's life for thirty-five years. Betsy Connor is a widow again. Now out of the blue her first love is back from the grave. But it can't be. Jerry Fellows was killed in Viet Nam. Sherry Derr Wille's characters are real and you find yourself cheering for them and wanting them to find a happy-ever-after. If you like stories that grab a hold of your heart and don't let go. You'll love this one. Along the way there is some humor and tears and love that survived through time. There were many tragedies out of the Viet Nam War but thanks to Ms. Wille this one had a happy ending.-- Judy Leigh Peters, A Father's Hope, Joshua's Faith, http://www.judyleighpeters.com

Hopkins v. Lee
ERROR to the Circuit Court for the District of Columbia.
This was an action of covenant, brought by the defendant in error, (Lee,) against the plaintiff in error, (Hopkins,) to recover damages for not conveying certain tracts of military lands, which the plaintiff in error had agreed to convey, upon the defendant in error relieving a certain incumbrance held by one Rawleigh Colston, upon an estate called Hill and Dale, and which Lee had previously granted and sold to Hopkins, and for which the military lands in question were to be received in part payment. The declaration set forth the covenant, and averred that Lee had completely removed the incumbrance, from Hill and Dale. The defendant below pleaded, 1. That he had not completely removed the incumbrance; and, 2. That he (the defendant below) had never been required by Lee to convey the military lands to him: and on these pleas issues were joined. Upon the trial, Lee, in order to prove the incumbrance in question was removed, offered in evidence to the jury a record of the proceeding in Chancery, on a bill filed against him in the Circuit Court by Hopkins. The bill stated, that on the 23d of January, 1807, the date of the agreement on which the present action at law was brought, Hopkins purchased of Lee, the estate of Hill and Dale, for which he agreed to pay 18,000 dollars: viz. 10,000 dollars in military lands, at settled prices, and to give his bond for the residue, payable in April, 1809. That Lee, in pursuance of this agreement, selected certain military lands in the bill mentioned. That at the time of the purchase of Hill and Dale, it was mortgaged to Colston for a large sum, which Lee had promised to discharge, but had failed so to do, in consequence of which Hopkins had paid off the mortgage himself. The bill then claimed a large sum of money from Lee for having removed this incumbrance, and prayed that the defendant might be decreed to pay it, or in default thereof, that the claimant might be authorized by a decree of Chancery to sell the military lands, which he considered as a pledge remaining in his hands, and out of the proceeds thereof, to pay himself. On the coming in of Lee's answer, denying several of the allegations of the bill, the cause was referred to a master, who made a report, stating a balance of 427 dollars 77 cents, due from Hopkins to Lee. This report was not excepted to, and the Court, after referring to it, proceeded to decree the payment of the balance. To this testimony the defendant in the present action objected, so far as respected the reading of the master's report, and the decretal order thereon; but the objection was overruled by the Court below, and the evidence admitted. The counsel for the plaintiff in error then prayed the Court to instruct the jury, that in the assessment of damages, they should take the price of the military lands as agreed upon by the parties in the articles of agreement upon which the action was brought, as the measure of damages for the breach of covenant. But the Court refused to give this instruction, and directed the jury to take the price of the lands, at the time they ought to have been conveyed, as the measure of damages. To this instruction the plaintiff in error excepted; and a verdict and judgment thereon being rendered for the plaintiff below, the cause was brought by writ of error to this Court.
Mr. Pinkney and Mr. Swann, for the plaintiff in error, argued, (1.) That the proceedings in Chancery were not admissible evidence in the action at law. A verdict and judgment are indeed conclusive evidence between the same parties; but the other proceedings in the cause, and all that which is merely inducement to the verdict or judgment, are not evidence. So, a decree in Chancery is not conclusive evidence of all the facts in the course of the cause. Not that the decree is not conclusive as a res judicata: but the decree here is no otherwise conclusive than as giving the party, in whose favour it was pronounced, a right to have it executed. It is not evidence at all, unless it be conclusive evidence: but it cannot be conclusive evidence of the details of the cause, and of the incidental questions which arose in its progress. (2.) The proper measure of damages in the action at law, was the price agreed by the parties. When a portion of the price of land is to be paid for in other land, the pecuniary price, with interest, is the rule at law, where specific performance is not called for. It is thus subjected to the analogical rule in the Court of Chancery, where the contract is rescinded, instead of being specifically performed.
Mr. Jones and Mr. Lee, for the defendant in error, insisted, (1.) That the proceedings in Chancery were not only admissible evidence in the suit at law, but conclusive evidence. It may be safely admitted that the decree is not evidence of such facts as are only collaterally or incidentally drawn in question, or can only be argumentatively inferred from the decree. But where the decree professes to be founded on a particular fact, which was the principal question in issue, and was ascertained by the master's report, it must be conclusive in any other suit between the same parties. (2.) As to the proper measure of damages, it is the settled doctrine of this Court, that in an action by the purchaser for a breach of the contract of sale, the rule of damages is the price of the article at the time of the breach.a It is true, that the case of Shepherd v. Hampton, was a sale of goods; but it is not perceived that there is any difference in the application of the principle to real or to personal property.
Mr. Justice LIVINGSTON delivered the opinion of the Court.
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it is a work of the United States federal government (see 17 U.S.C. 105).

I haven't posted here in a while. Thought I'd update followers on what I've been up to. (Mostly because I can't think of anything more interesting to write about tonight.)
So I wrote a timeline for Dorian Gray that will be appearing in an anthology being put out by Wild Hunt Press sometime this year.
Just posted a new TVCU post on Roswell and Area 51.
I've been watching a lot of Christmas movies. In November, I had come across a list of the 100 best Christmas movies and challenged myself to watch them all before Christmas. It's now March and I'm still working my way through the list.
Meanwhile, I'm still doing a lot of work with various organizations within my local Northampton, MA community, trying to get a community center built that will support those struggling with homelessness, addiction and mental health issues.
I am running again for city council as well.
I'm struggling to get a job that actually gives me money. I'm thinking of going back to school for a Masters in Social Work, but not having a car has been an obstacle.
My stalkers have been legally stopped from harassing me, so that's a relief.
I still have not seen Black Panther, and every day I end up seeing more and more spoilers, and that's a bit bothersome.
Jessica Jones season 2 is coming out, and I still haven't watched Defenders and Punisher, so I'm allotting myself time to take care of that.
Having become disheartened lately by many things, I've decided to devote the rest of my life to pizza, sleeping, and old movie.

Yes, you read the title correctly. After Violent J announced at this year's Gathering of the Juggalos that the 4th Joker's Card of the 2nd deck will be dropping on Oct 26th of this year, many of you have been waiting patiently for any sort of word on pre-ordes, etc. Well now we got a bit of a bone as the release date has been pushed back to February 15th, 2019! This is the longest amount of time we've every seen between Joker's Cards releases and I'm gettin' antsy but I know I can wait a little while longer.
I do have some fresh news to report though. Fearless Fred Fury will be available for pre-order on November 23rd! Not only that, the tracklist will also be dropping on that date as well as a brand new single from the album!
One more thing I'm noticing. It was also announced that there would be details in the FFF booklet on how to receive your Flip The Rat EP. I dont think this changed but it's looking like copies of the EP are only available with the proof of purchase of a physical copy of the CD. Which is totally OK with me.
Make sure you have money in your account and make sure to hit us back up on Nov 23rd for links to that pre-order, the tracklist and the new single, ninjas.

Aon Hewitt recently released their 2012 Total Rewards Survey – a brilliant and thorough 84 page examination of "everything an employee gets from the employer that they find rewarding". They found companies fail to align total rewards strategy to business outcomes, fail to gather hard data and metrics and fail to listen to current and future employees. They point out it is cost and competitiveness (both misunderstood and misapplied), which drive total rewards programs and not program effectiveness or employee preferences. And they show that the difference between high-performing and all other companies is not the programs offered, but how they are executed.
This prompted an article from Andrew McIlvaine entitled "Not So Totally Rewarding", wherein he examines the disengagement gap between what employees value and what employers believe they value.

They care for the children, animals, the earth and the seas.

~ A new antibody, cure for Alzheimer's, cancer dismantled, increased brain capacity, and activated dormant DNA

~ Time faster, interdimensional collaboration, and extraterrestrial contact.
We are in a collective shift of intention – to protect all under our care. Despite social chaos, we are actually in a magnanimous shift—an individual and global spiritual awakening.
The New Humans: Second Genesis is one of the most unique but exceptional books I have ever had the pleasure of reading. When I discovered The New Humans, I instantly wanted to read it because in the description predications for the world's future is alluded to and I wanted to know more about these predictions and the evidence that support they could become true. This intrigue paired with the fact that the preview of The New Humans is flawlessly written ensured that I would read the book thoroughly from beginning to end. The New Humans is just incredible book lovers, and no amount of words can describe how much I loved this book. I have always been fascinated with science as well as humanities and earth's future so to read about Charol Messenger's visions of the future and to have the reasons explained to why she thinks it will happen was mind-blowing and satisfied my intrigue!
The New Humans is written by Charol Messenger who is a knowledge and intelligent woman who has won numerous awards for her books that fall within the Mind, Body and Spirit genre. What I love the most about Charol's literature is how she was able to entertain me from the very start! Usually, it takes a while for me to be entertained book lovers but not with Charol's book. Charol ensured that I was captivated from the start and so that is why I am already recommending The New Humans for you lovely readers to read, however, if you need more convincing then continue to read to learn more about this gem of a book!
The New Humans is a visionary book that examines the future and what would be possible. Charol Messenger is the voice of this, and throughout her book, she perfectly guides her reader into the future and explores what will one day happen/what will be possible and what she writes is fascinating! Charol throughout her book explores many things she believes she will happen, such as a new energy source that will be able to restore the earth's ozone layer, space travel, a cure for Alzheimer's, a new antibody and so much more! All of this is explored in a wealth of detail, and the result is fascinating. Even if you do not believe this will happen, I still think the book will be highly enjoyable thanks to Charol's phenomenal literature alone.
What I loved the most about The New Humans is the fact that none of the future possibilities explored are ridiclious. In fact they are all potential possibilities and Charol explains all the reasons as to why the events will/can happen. So if you are a reader who is tired of reading non-believable science books, then The New Humans is for you and I promise it will not let you down!
The New Humans is an incredible book, and Charol Messenger has done a superb job of informing her readers flawlessly, never confusing them from start to finish. When science is involved in a book as well as complicated possibilities it is a real possibility that the author in question will not be able to explain every detail and so the reader will get frustrated and stop reading. However with The New Humans, the reader will never experience this because Charol ensures that her book is easily readable and easy to understand and learn and that is one of the many reasons I am obsessed with The New Humans!
Charol Messenger is quite simply a gem, and her work is stellar. Charol is well equipped to inform us readers on all of these subjects explored in this book because she has a vast amount of knowledge and experience. I hate when a book that falls into the science genre is written by somebody who claims to have a ton of knowledge and experience but does not, so the fact that The New Humans is written by somebody who does is simply fantastic and makes me love this book even more. Charol has managed to include a wealth of knowledge in her book all while making it accessible and easy to read for her readers. Charol's readers will be able to understand every topic and subject thanks to her intricate writing that has a natural rhythm.
Overall The New Humans indeed is a fantastic book that should be owned by anybody; this is because it will provoke and challenge your thoughts and that is a quality which is brilliant. That is why I have no choice but to award this book five stars because it is inspiring, informative, and incredible!

Ah… here I am, with an OOTD post, at the end of another beautiful week that flew away once again.
Or should I better call it outfit of the week since it's not my today's outfit and it's the only one post this week featuring an outfit…
If you are constant readers of my blog, you may have already passed your eyes on my posts in which I showed my outfits and looks so, somewhat you have made an idea when it comes to my style.
I have always talked about the floral print, how trendy it is, how beautiful and appropriate it is in every warm season and not only, how beautiful are the clothes that hold it and so on.
Honestly, I think I have a fairly decent number of floral printed garments in my closet, such as a maxi dress, maybe two t-shirts, a jacket, 2-3 short dresses, tops, a shirt and perhaps a few more, yet with all these, I do not wear them at all. Not because I do not like or because I do not know how to make an outfit based on them, but because of most of the times, I love the clean and simple looks and I feel best with myself while sticking to minimal outfits.
I said before that I would like to change a little bit this situation and become more daring when it comes to my outfits, the colors I'm wearing and especially accessories, and even if it's a long way to me, up to a total floral print look (and when I say total look, I mean much more than a floral printed jumpsuit or a dress), with some bold bright colours combined, a few days ago I introduced a minimal amount of flowers into my outfit. I'd call it a progress!
I composed my outfit starting from my frilled crop top, which I normally bought to wear it over a shirt or a tee… but given the heat, it works perfectly without anything underneath as well – eventually, that's its role, right?
I wore it with a pair of high waisted white trousers, with a pair of slides and a cap, both with floral prints. The hat is not the most beautiful in the world, but I liked a lot chromatically the floral print.
In the end, I removed the floral printed slides and cap and I returned to my simple black and white look and here's how it looks like!
Outfit Details
Zara Frilled Crop Top
Vintage Trousers
Pink Woman CY Slides
Stradivarius Belt Bag
Local Boutique Sunglasses & Cap
Until next time! Muah!
