EU ambassadors have agreed to toughen regulations on a controversial gas pipeline from Russia to Germany, but they have decided not to back plans that might threaten its completion.
Work on the 1,225km (760-mile) Nord Stream 2 pipeline under the Baltic Sea is already well under way and is set to be finished by the end of 2019.
The EU wants to bring pipelines coming into the bloc under its energy rules.
Germany feared that would make the pipeline uneconomic and unviable.
In the end 27 of the bloc's 28 ambassadors reportedly agreed with a Franco-German compromise, which meant that Germany could remain as lead negotiator on the Nord Stream 2 project.
What are the worries with Nord Stream 2?
Russia currently supplies around 40% of the EU's gas supplies, just ahead of Norway, which is not in the EU but takes part in the bloc's single market.
For years, the 28-member bloc has been concerned about reliance on Russian gas.
Poland has warned that Russia could use Nord Stream 2 to harm Europe's energy security, and US President Donald Trump even accused Germany of being a "captive" of Russia because of it.
Nord Stream 2 will only increase Russia's supply, it also means that, along with its TurkStream project, Russia will be able to bypass Ukrainian pipelines. The loss of transit fees would hit Ukraine's economy hard.
A big priority for the EU is to increase competition too, and instead of a patchwork of different agreements for pipelines entering the bloc it wants Nord Stream 2 to come under internal EU rules on transparency and separating ownership of the pipes from the supplier.
It is trying to look beyond Russian gas - to imports of US liquified natural gas (LNG) and new pipelines, such as a planned Norway-Poland pipeline via Denmark, that would supply Sweden and other neighbouring states.
Why is Germany backing the new pipeline?
German businesses have invested heavily in Nord Stream 2 and former Chancellor, Gerhard Schröder is running the project.
As well as Germany's Uniper and BASF's Wintershall unit, other European companies have stakes too, including Anglo-Dutch Shell, OMV of Austria and Engie of France.
Chancellor Angela Merkel tried to assure Central and Eastern European states on Thursday that the pipeline would not make Germany reliant on Russia for energy.
"Germany will expand its network of gas terminals in regards to liquified gas. Meaning, for gas we do not want to be at all dependent on Russia alone," she said.
Russian government spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Moscow hoped the disagreement would be sorted out. "We still believe that this project is beneficial to both the European gas consumers' interests and to Russian Federation as gas supplier," he said.

Welcome to Bear Canyon!
My name is Kelly Ursetta and I have the privilege to serve as the principal of our school. I am blessed to work with such a supportive community that partners alongside us to ensure our students are academically successful and feel part of an extended family. We have an outstanding and amazingly dedicated staff who always put students first.
This is my fourth year as the leader at Bear Canyon, and eighth year as a building principal. I have been in a leadership position working in the Douglas County School District for 11 years. Prior to becoming a principal, I was a teacher for ten years and have spent my entire 21 year educational journey right here in our district.
My education philosophy includes fostering a caring and nurturing environment where all students can learn, grow, and succeed. I believe it is our responsibility as partners in education to ensure all students reach their maximum potential socially, emotionally and academically. We do this at Bear Canyon by building strong, positive relationships within our school that incorporate students, parents and our community. With those relationships established, we are able to challenge our students with the high academic rigor they are craving and provide the support that they need to soak up learning. We encourage our students to enjoy their learning experience and invite them to be actively engaged through making their own choices that ensure they have ownership of their personalized goals. Another common strategy for students is to participate with hands-on, real-world experiences to enhance their learning opportunities.
In addition, I believe that personal wellness which includes social emotional health and self-regulation skills are becoming essential life skills as we have entered the world of ever changing technology and all that it brings. I believe we have an obligation to support our students in developing lifelong essential skills--both academic and personal character-- that stretch beyond the classroom to ensure happiness and success.
If you would like to speak with me about your child, our school, our programming, or other issues related to Bear Canyon, please don't hesitate to reach out. I can be reached via email, phone, or just drop by the school. I have an open door policy and am always happy to have face to face conversations.

Europe: Water deficits forecast to persist in many parts of Europe
21 August 2017
The Big Picture
The 12-month forecast through April 2018 indicates a predominance of water deficits of varying severity in many parts of Europe. Deficits are expected to be especially widespread and intense in Italy, the Iberian Peninsula, Belgium, and Finland.
Exceptional water surpluses are forecast in western Russia and along the Volga. Surpluses of nearly equal intensity are forecast along the border of Romania and Moldova.
Europe's summer heatwave - nicknamed "Lucifer" - and drought have resulted in agricultural losses of nearly US$1 billion in Italy and an equal amount in Serbia. Serbia's maize, soy, and sugar beet yield will drop by up to 60 percent over last year and a drastic drop in water levels threatens fish stock.
Albania, which normally produces nearly 100 percent of its electricity from hydropower, has been forced to import 80 percent recently as low water levels on the Drin River have reduced production at three of the country's largest hydropower plants. European electricity production will become increasingly vulnerable due to climate change, according to a study recently published in Nature Energy, as thermoelectric stations - coal, gas, and nuclear plants - face limited water supplies for cooling.
Wildfires continue to tear through southern Europe, creating forest wastelands and threatening agriculture and tourism. Officials evacuated 12,000 people on France's Mediterranean coast at the end of July where fires burned campgrounds and popular tourist destinations leaving charred lunar-like forest landscapes, and briefly forced the closure of an airport in Toulon. More than 4,000 firefighters and at least 19 water-bombers were mobilized.
Portugal, too, has been battling fire outbreaks since the devastating fires in June. A large fire destroyed 80-90 percent of Mação municipality at the end of July, and flames and smoke from a recent fire in the region have left 2,000 people cut off.
In Italy, 26 cities were on the health ministry's heat alert list as temperatures topped 40°C (104°F) and 11 regions face critical water shortages. Olive yields are projected to be 50 percent lower than normal in some parts of the country and sheep's milk production is down 30 percent in others, with negative repercussions for the percorino cheese industry.
Even Greenland has succumbed to a large wildfire during a dry summer of relatively high temperatures.
Forecast Breakdown
The 3-month composites (below) for the same 12-month time period show the evolving conditions.
As is clear in the map progression, the extent of exceptional water deficits is expected to diminish considerably in the coming months, particularly after October, though southern Europe will remain in deficit for the extent of the 12-month forecast period.
From August through October some relief is forecast – particularly for Italy, Spain, Portugal, and Belgium – as the extent of exceptional deficits in Europe shrinks. Other than some isolated pockets, only Finland will remain in the grip of widespread, exceptional water deficits. Deficits of varying severity will, however, continue to envelop much of Europe. Severe to extreme deficits are forecast for: France, Belgium, Netherlands, southern Sweden, Estonia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Croatia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Moderate to severe deficits are expected in much of the remainder of Europe. Western Russia stands out in obvious contrast with exceptional surpluses forecast to increase in extent. Intense surpluses are also forecast for the border of Romania and Moldova, and a pocket in north-central Germany. Surpluses of lesser severity are forecast for Northern Ireland, Scotland, northern Sweden, and northeastern Poland into western Belarus.
The forecast for November 2017 through January 2018 indicates a continued recession of deficits, leaving moderate deficits in Spain, France, Italy, and some severe deficits in Greece, Albania, and Croatia. A dramatic retreat of exceptional deficits is forecast in Finland though exceptional deficits are expected to persist in a patch of northern Lapland. Surpluses will diminish considerably in Murmansk; elsewhere in western Russia surpluses ranging from moderate to exceptional will continue to emerge. Intense surpluses may persist on the border of Romania and Moldova. Conditions in Estonia and Latvia are expected to transition from deficit to surplus, and moderate to severe surpluses will emerge throughout Norway.
In the remaining months of the forecast – February through April 2018 – water surpluses are expected across the northern portions of Europe and moderate deficits in the south.
(It should be noted that forecast skill declines with longer lead times.)

I have read many-a-health-blogs that suggested you scrape the icing off a piece of cake before eating it to save calories, save fat, save sugar. And to that I say, save it for what? Save it to ingest in some other form that is not the delicious frosting on top of my cake? Save it for after the party so I can pride myself for snacking on an apple and peanut butter instead?
The idiom "Icing on the Cake" came into existence because it is the perfect example of "something good that is added to another good thing". But our over-obsessed health culture today is rendering this expression meaningless. Icing, or frosting, is becoming synonymous with "bad", "unhealthy", "fattening". And that is true if you choose to look at it that way.
Or you can choose to look at frosting as what it is! A simple mixture of sugar, dairy and butter–all of which are FOODS with nutritional value!! I've discussed sugar and dairy in the "Ice cream is good for you" post, so let's focus on the butter component of icing. Or frosting. Whichever you call it.
Alright. Let's get some things straight. Butter facts:
1. Butter is a fat. It is not what makes you fat. It is a TYPE of fat. Fat is essential for survival.
2. Butter is rich rich RICH in Vitamins A, E, D, and K2.
3. Butter has iodine!!
4. Butyric acid. Wonder where it get its name from?;)
5. Linoleic acid. <—read about it. it's cool stuff!!!
6. THE benefits of BUTTER list goes on and on and on..
So celebrate butter. Celebrate the icing on the cake. Make this buttercream fosting today. Life is too short to rob ourselves of nutritional happiness in times of celebration (isn't this usually when we eat cake anyway?)
Have your cake, eat it, AND the icing too!!!!!
And now for today's relevant, yet irrelevant question: What is your ideal cake:frosting ratio?

Josh and Amanda had a beautiful June wedding at St. Michael's Parish and I could not have been happier to be there. Six years ago I photographed her sister Jackie's wedding and Josh was the best man. Jackie's husband Brandon was the best man this time around. If you are lost now, no problem - let's just say it was great for me to see everyone again as well as the new additions to the family.
This summer wedding started with bridal prep at Amanda's mom's house. I joined Chop Shop who was doing hair along with Sta Glam on make up. The flower girls assisted me with their Instax cameras. We even re-created a fave photo of Amanda's that I did with her brother in 2011.
Josh paid tribute to Amanda's father Greg before joining his groomsmen and arriving at St. Michael's Parish in Schererville.
St. Michael's Parish was filled with friends and family of Amanda and Josh. As Amanda walked down the aisle with her brother Jake and mom Mary, the smile on Josh's face grew wider. Soon they would be husband and wife and off to celebrate in the summer sun.
We immediately photographed family and wedding party after the ceremony with a few bride and groom photos inside the church. Then we were off to Centennial Park for some June wedding photos in the sun.
I photographed the wedding party groups pictures looking across the lake at Centennial Park and then second photographer Bridget took the guys for their images and I photographed the bridesmaids.
Amanda had an incredibly long veil and we had to make sure we took advantage of the wind and let it fly for a few portraits. She was gorgeous wearing it outside as well as when she walked down the aisle.
As I took Amanda and Josh around Centennial Park I was amazed at all of the leaves on the ground. We took some kissing shots with them and I also had the happy couple chill in the shade of the garden for awhile for some candid moments.
Josh and Amanda were quite anxious for a dipping shot and I obliged them in front of the lake fountains. They looked as though they had been practicing!!
During our last few photos, Josh lifted Amanda off of her feet and soon we were on our way to the party at Villa Cesare.
The reception at Centennial Park had some raucous intros of the wedding party along with a roasting of the groom via best man Brandon. Summer sandals were handed out to all those who hit the dance floor and there were many!! DJ Shaun Kelly from Spinnin' Productions kept it live all night.
As I mentioned at the beginning of this article, I could not have been more thrilled to photograph Amanda and Josh's big day and also get the chance to see Jackie and Brandon, Samantha and Dale and Rachel and Dustin - all former clients whose weddings I have shot. thanks! This is merely a sneak peek, so stay tuned for more images.
As always, please fill out the Contact Form to inquire about your big day!!

I rocked wildly, as I clung to the memory of pain, to the memory of my mother. I couldn't release it; I would lose her again.
"Abinia," [Mama Mae] said, trying to hold me still, "you tell Mama Mae why you rockin' like this." She held my face and forced my eyes to meet hers. "You talk to Mama. Abinia, you got to talk. Don't you go away like this. You talk to Mama. You tell her what the trouble is."
I tried to pull away, but… Mama took my rocking self to her lap. Press me to her strong bosom, she slowed my rhythm to match her own. "Mama gonna take this pain from you," she said. Rocking back, she breathed deeply, pulling me into herself, and as we rocked forward, she exhaled in deep guttural moans the sorrow I was holding.

Understandably, parents want to remember every detail of this amazing little person they made. The only issue is that this book is a physical object. And objects get lost or ruined as we move houses, and pack up random possessions for storage.
People have been moving to different media to save memories, pictures, videos, and messages for their children for later access – parents are preserving memories in emails.
For modern families that don't like collecting too many things, the email memory bank is a great option. It's the ability to preserve cherished experiences in a way that won't get lost or ruined with coffee stains or a flooded basement.
Not to mention that emails allow the ability to edit – writing by hand in a book can be cramped, and pencil fades over time, so if you make a mistake in pen you end up with a messy crossed out page and not enough space to add more. Making your own scrap book is also pretty tedious if you're not into DIY.
Emails afford parents a reprieve from lost-memory angst. You can film your child with your iPad, and the send the video to a draft from that device, and finish the email later on your cell phone once the kids are asleep and you're watching Netflix with your feet up.
Y5 loves applications of modern technology. Many parents take to Facebook and Instagram to share pictures of their children as they grow older – digital photo albums, if you will. While an old saying may have been "It takes a village to raise a child", now you have the whole world at your fingertips.
Looking for birthday party ideas or natural eczema remedies? You have all of your friends and family in one place to ask.
Where parenting a young child will always be no cake-walk (though worth it), parents now can share experiences and joys much quicker and easier.
Have you been using technology as a parent to preserve memories or share experiences? What social media platforms have you used? Let us know below in the comments section!

Dodson -- who famously fought off a bedroom intruder a few years ago -- is set to take on a man who claims he's the actual burglar this weekend.
But Antoine says there was ANOTHER celeb he was supposed to fight first -- a famous person who really wanted to punch Dodson in the face.
Check out the clip -- and also watch Antoine throw his first punch in the video below ... yeah, he's like a young Roy Jones all right.

Gig Harbor Canoe and Kayak wins fifth consecutive national title
The Gig Harbor Canoe and Kayak Race Team won its fifth straight national championship over the weekend in Oklahoma City.
The team preserved through four days of intense Oklahoma Heat to win the Yonkers Award with 718 points. Ten-time national champion Lanier Canoe and Kayak Club — from Lanier, Georgia — came in second with 666 points. Oklahoma City Canoe and Kayak Club finished in third place with 493 points.
The U.S. National Championship was also the qualifying event for the Olympic Hopes Regatta in September in Szeged, Hungary. The Olympic Hopes is the top international competition for sprint canoe and kayak athletes ages 15 to 17. Thirteen Gig Harbor athletes were selected to join Team USA and represent the United States at the regatta.
13 Number of Gig Harbor Canoe and Kayak Race Team members who qualified for the Olympic Hopes Regatta in Hungary
Gig Harbor athletes will make up 40 percent of Team USA, and Gig Harbor Canoe and Kayak Race Team coach Holm Schmidt has been named one of the Team USA coaches. To top it all off, Gig Harbor High School student Ryan Grady, 17, was named Team USA captain after his canoe performance at the national championship event.
"It's a big honor," Grady said. "I'm really happy to be leading the team and helping the younger athletes, being there to help and encourage them. I'm really excited. We're bringing a lot of athletes this year."
Grady qualified in the C1 1,000-, 500- and 200-meter races for the Olympic Hopes regatta. Grady won the 1,000 C1 junior race in Oklahoma and the 5,000 race.
It's been my goal to win a national title ever since I began the sport (five years ago).
Ryan Grady, Gig Harbor canoeist
"It's been my goal to win a national title ever since I began the sport (five years ago)," Grady said. "Especially racing alongside my teammates who I had been training with and racing against for five years. I'm happy all the hard work I put in paid off."
The Gig Harbor team continues its unprecedented streak of national title victories.
"Each year, it's been getting better and better," Grady said. "I'm really impressed with the development of all my teammates, the level of competitiveness during practices. We have a strong base we've been working on. We have such a great environment on the team."
Peninsula High School and TCC running start student Catherine Wilborn, 16, had a strong showing in the kayak events, helping guide GHCKRT to the title. She knew it would be tight between GHCKRT and the Lanier club, so when the announcements came of the final standings, she was nervous.
"It's always nerve-wracking," she said. "When they announced the second-place team, we were all clenching our hands. And then when they announced us as the first-place team, we all jumped up cheering and screaming. It's a lot of adrenaline."
Wilborn was also named to the Olympic Hopes regatta team.
"It's really special," she said. "I never thought when I was little that I'd be such an intense athlete. I was very much a pretty, pink princess kind of person. To everyone's surprise, it turns out, I'm extremely competitive. I think I found my stride in paddling. Just getting to go to Hungary, it's like the equivalent of Wimbledon for tennis."
For GHCKRT, the streak doesn't seem to show any signs of slowing down.
"We have a really strong development program," Wilborn said. "If we keep recruiting, we can keep it going for a long time. We have a lot of extremely passionate people on this team. Everyone on our team cares about it. We can keep it going."

Short Course on Trees – What You Need To Know
What Does A Tree Service Company Do? The way tree service companies are making their profits is by means of taking care of trees in factories, businesses or residential areas. If you have dead or dying trees that have to be removed before they become a hazard, if there's a number of trees on your property that should be pruned and the likes are common reasons for using a tree service. It is essential to be aware that not all service providers that are offering tree removal are the same. With this being said, you must be sure that you are only working with the right on to take care of your needs. Not only that, the company that you're about to hire should be bonded and insured like for example, if you have dead or unsightly tree that you want to move, make it a point that when the job is through, the company will take every single piece of the trees. Not to mention, the process of removal should be done efficiently and safely. You must be sure that the company has knowledge for these types of trees if you have tree care for live trees. It is a must for them to know how to properly and safely remove the dead branches without causing damage to the live trees and that they know as well how to do selective pruning and topping. Both the owner and the employees should be an arborist or an individual who is expert and knowledgeable in taking care of different trees. In case that you hired a company or an individual who isn't one, then there's a possibility that they may botch your trees and cause them to die, become diseased or even grown unshapely.
Getting To The Point – Trees
Knowledgeable and experienced tree service company will be very happy in giving potential clients free estimates to what they will do and also, the cost for every service along with other pertinent info to the estimate. As being a client, you should be sure that you got at least a couple of estimates and done comparison before you zero in on one. Yet another thing you must be sure of in the estimate is that, they are going to do total cleanup together with the cleaning of debris as a result of the job that's been done.
Why Options Aren't As Bad As You Think
There are many reputable and seasoned tree service companies that'll take the time to discuss these things with their clients and if they have any landscape goals wished to achieve. Moreover, these service providers are going to inform their clients on which trees in their yard that are potentially hindering other growth of plants or grasses in the area, which affects its beauty.

Earn Your Keep, People!/
Did I tell you that I want to write a book? I think I might have mentioned that a million or so times but I'm not sure. Well, I met with my advisor through the Foreword program this morning and I think I am now going to write a book. Maybe. We'll see. Aren't I the picture of confidence? We talked about themes in my writing and then she asked about the stories I haven't told. She wondered if long-time readers of this blog had things they wanted me to write about and I admitted that I had absolutely no idea but this is a problem that is easily fixed, right? So, this is me asking you very seriously to think about a few questions:
Is there anything you have ever wanted to ask me? Is there a story that you wanted to know more about? Are there topics that you wish that I would cover? Is there anything you've been curious about but never mentioned?
Now is the time for everyone to come forward and comment. You don't have to be witty and entertaining - just answer the questions above or say anything you want about what you've read here. I promise that I won't bug you for feedback all the time but these are questions that only you can answer. So, go forth into the comment section and talk to me. Tomorrow, we'll get back to the important stuff like whether or not Ali's Volvo has a way back and if Amy K. finally took those clothes in the trunk to the Salvation Army.

Additional Data setsCoverages included: Environmentally Sensitive Areas, Forest Industries, Health Department Wells, Permitted Wells, U.S.G.S. Public and Private Wells.
Coverage Creation: The coordinates and attributes of the above themes were provided by the contributing agencies to the MTC on diskettes (see summary descriptions of each theme listed above). All USGS coordinates were provided in Albers projection while the remaining data was provided in Latitude /Longitude coordinates.The data were separated into two files: 1) A unique ID and x,y coordinates , and 2) the same unique ID with associated attributes. These files were then transferred from the PC to the MARIS Technical Center workstation via Ethernet using TCP/IP protocol software. Once on the workstation, the first file was edited to place the data into Arc/Info generate format. The coverage was then created using the Arc/Info GENERATE command. The second file was loaded into an empty template INFO data file. Using the Arc/Info JOINITEM command, the attributes were attached to the coverage on the .PAT file. The coverage was then projected into the Mississippi Transverse Mercator projection using the PROJECT command. It should be noted that the Health Department and Permitted well data is now being provided using GPS derived locations.
Coverage Editing: Once projected, the data was displayed using state boundaries as background. Points that fell outside the state were separated into another coverage. This coverage and a printout of IDs and coordinates were provided to the source agency for correction.

Moving data processing and analysis to the "field" solves the problem of high latency and low throughput associated with sending data over the network. Many edge devices need advanced learning, prediction and analytics capabilities to function efficiently.
New mobile application Pocketsize-Enterprise gives you all that you need at the palm of your hand.
According to a recent Forrester survey, machine-learning investments are increasing 300 percent this year compared to last year. In the following year the most important thing for entrepreneurs is to use all the necessary machine learning, apply it to their enterprises and make the most out of Artificial Intelligence. All researches from the previous year show that time ahead of us is just right for further education on Machine Learning. This is the time for expanding businesses, new projects, this the time for new opportunities, so energise your business with AI.
To remain ahead of your game, AI-aware firms should start shifting jobs and available opportunities toward a paradigm that complements the new technological direction. AI can replace many lower-level tasks required in day-to-day operations -- data analysis and marketing among them.
Unstructured data is more relevant than it appears. In contrast to Structured data, such as organized charts and tables, unstructured data includes "everyday" data, such as pictures and sounds, which is much more difficult for computers to analyse. For Artificial Intelligence, tackling unstructured information is a big breakthrough. It certainly leaves more time on your hands for clearing up more important jobs.
Missing data is a major problem for most businesses. A recent Openprise study found that 41 percent of surveyed B2B marketers considered missing contacts their data's greatest shortcoming. Another 39 percent cited missing field values as the biggest problem.
Luckily, as they're fed data, deep-learning models get smarter about what's captured and what's conspicuously missing. After identifying missing data, deep learners can track it down. It is of the utmost importance to understand the way AI can function for the best results and what are the advantages that you can use as well as all other possibilities that you do not even know about.
Data crawling, natural language processing, machine learning and artificial intelligence, all this can help business leaders to optimize prospect data and sell more efficiently.
Three-quarters of executives believe AI will enable their companies to move into new businesses. Almost 85% believe AI will allow their companies to obtain or sustain a competitive advantage. But only about one in five companies has incorporated AI in some offerings or processes. Only one in 20 companies has extensively incorporated AI in offerings or processes. Less than 39% of all companies have an AI strategy in place. The largest companies — those with at least 100,000 employees — are the most likely to have an AI strategy, but only half have one.
Unlike traditional models, which require specific rules and feature sets to extract meaning from data, deep learning models autonomously draw conclusions and create their own classification rules from unstructured data.

3-4 sweet potatoes
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Himalayan Pink Sea Salt
Oven, oven trays, oven racks or parchment paper + hands
Preheat oven to 400F˚ or 204C˚. Wash and dry the sweat potatoes.
Next, poke holes into the potato with a fork or knife to accelerate the
baking process. Get your oven trays and racks and place them into the
oven at 400 F˚ or 204C˚ for 1 hour. You will know the potatoes are
done once a knife or fork can easily pierce threw the potato. After,
grab your garbanzos (cooked or canned) and place them into a sauté
pan with 1 tbsp. extra virgin olive. Next, add 2 handfuls of spinach
and add some pink Himalayan salt and let that sizzle for 4-9 minutes
until the spinach becomes sautéed (Add the lemon towards the end).
After that is done and the potatoes are ready you're ready to plate.
Finally, carefully cut open your potatoes vertically down the middle
and add the garbanzos in the center. I hope you like this recipe and
don't be afraid to add or change things to your preference.
Health Benefits
Sweet potatoes or yams, is how they call the original root vegetable from
Africa that has many vitamins and nutrients that protect the body against
many illnesses. For example, studies have shown that different types of
diabetics who eat sweet potatoes show to have less frequent low blood
pressure, low blood sugar, low glycemic levels, lipids, and along with lower
blood glucose because of the high fiber level found in yams. The fiber is also
good for digestion and preventing constipation. Sweet potatoes are also
loaded with beta-carotene extremely beneficial for preventing colon cancer
significantly pointing to the beta-carotene found in studies. The beneficial
nutrient Choline found in sweet potatoes are great for many reasons like
sleep, muscle movement, learning, and memory. Choline also helps cellular
structure of membranes, aids in nerve impulses, and chronic inflammation
studies found. Sweet potatoes are also good for even moor reasons they help
the vision, aid fertility, obesity, increase energy, lower weight, vitamin B6,
C, & D, iron, magnesium, good sugars, and carbohydrates they are very
nutritious indeed if prepared the right way.

RESIDENTS are stepping up their campaign to stop a development of 182 homes being built in their village, which they fear will destroy its character.
In December Charles Church asked Surrey Heath Borough Council for planning permission to build 194 homes in Bagshot.
The development at Notcutts Garden Centre in London Road would have included 105 houses, 77 flats and 12 maisonettes.
The council had not reached a decision on the application when, to the relief of those who live close to the site, the developer withdrew the plans at the end of June.
But two weeks later it submitted a new application.
Although the scheme has been revised to 182 homes, the breakdown shows 115 houses, 59 flats and eight maisonettes.
Residents living opposite the garden centre in London Road and Fry's Lane have signed a petition opposing the plans because they believe the development will be detrimental to the semi-rural village.
They have raised four areas of concern. They expect a considerable increase in traffic along the A30 if Charles Church wins permission. With more cars joining and coming off the A30 residents feel there could be implications for highway safety.
They are worried about the impact on wildlife. Although the developer proposes building a habitat, residents feel this will not reduce the impact on threatened species caused by the influx of so many new people.
Furthermore, the campaigners argue, amenities in Bagshot are already stretched and villagers are concerned that with a poor public transport service and small shops the area will suffer with more residents.
Should this development go ahead, they say, the overall shape and structure of the village could be changed forever as it becomes a small town but without the infrastructure and facilities to cope.
The residents' letter stated: "We all feel very strongly about our village life and community and feel a development of this scale will change the semi-rural aspect forever.
Once built we would no longer have the option to revert back."
Doreen China, who lives in Fry's Lane, helped draw up the petition. She is not opposed to the construction of more houses in the area but is against them being built at Notcutts.
"I'm personally frightened that if they get planning permission for 182 dwellings there will be between 200 and 300 more people on the roads," she said.
"The A30 is too small. It would mean another set of traffic lights or a roundabout.
"It's the most stupid place to put new homes. With another 300 people coming out of the development at that location, people are going to be injured or killed.
"I'm worried that eventually Notcutts will want to sell off the front part of the site and build houses there as well. We won't look out on to any trees at all."
Shirley Haslett, a resident of Fry's Lane, signed the petition because she shares these safety concerns.
"Getting out of the lane is really dangerous," she said. "If this development is built we will have more traffic lights at the Notcutts junction and more traffic on the A30.
"I've been in this house for about 23 years and the traffic has got steadily worse."
Her neighbour Lorraine Nicholson said: "I've lived here 32 years and the development is going to make a lot of difference emerging on to the A30, especially at peak times.
"Bagshot started off as a small village and as far as I can see nothing's been altered. We have got no more facilities than we had 30 years ago. The infrastructure won't cope with the added traffic."
Windlesham Parish Council rejected the application at its meeting last Friday, citing the traffic congestion on the A30 and over-development of the site. Its recommendation for refusal was sent to the borough council, which will consider the application in the near future.
Charles Church declined to comment.

"Black holes are everywhere" and "lowest-mass black holes are formed when very massive stars eject most of their material into space leaving a compact core that collapses into a black hole", declares the Royal Astronomical Society press release 12/20 of 27th March.
Yet a 'black hole' singularity cannot form in finite time. So says Einsteinian physics and the original analysers of the collapsing star model (Oppenheimer & Snyder = OS).
At NAM2012, we presented a Poster* aimed at solving this paradox. We map the OS solution space (solving PDEs in co-moving coordinates for inward contracting particles in very high gravity) describing outer and inner regions of an ideal collapsing star of cold 'dust'. Analytic continuation from the outer to inner regions shows collapse onto a shell rather than a central point, with large but finite density at finite times.
Not 'black hole' cores, but gravitationally collapsed shells could be the relics of massive stars after the supernova stage. But being only a few km in size, with propensity to suck in mass from the surrounding region, they lack the 'black hole' glamour sought by astronomers.
The shells are not black, as we find light does pass through, but with increasing delay as the shell compresses. The Hawking-Penrose 'black hole' singularity is based on a misreading of the OS map, we conclude, and OS were right to comment that a singularity could not form in finite time.
*Marshall & Wallis: GW1 poster 54 "Genuine field theory needed to support Gravitational Waves"

An Israeli official has said Israel doesn't want to start a war in Gaza, but admitted toppling Hamas was still "definitely an option." Israel has denied it agreed to a ceasefire with Hamas following last week's fighting.
Israeli Energy Minister Yuval Steinitz told reporters Sunday that Israel was "closer than ever" to toppling Hamas in Gaza "if there is no other choice."
The remarks by Steinitz, who also sits on Israel's security cabinet, come on the back of two days of fierce cross-border violence between Hamas and Israel last week.
Steinitz also told local broadcaster Kan that Israel had not signed a ceasefire agreement with Hamas following the latest escalations, contradicting reports coming from officials in Gaza.
Toppling Hamas was still "definitely an option," the minister said, before adding that Israel was not interested in escalating the conflict into a full-scale war.
Gaza on the brink?
Tensions between the two sides have been mounting since March, when Palestinians in Gaza began staging regular protests near the border with Israel.
However, recent weeks have seen at least three major flare-ups. The most recent, on Thursday, saw Israel launch a series of airstrikes on Gaza after Hamas troops launched some 180 rockets and mortar rounds across the border the night before. Three Palestinians were killed by the Israeli strikes, including a mother and her 18-month-old daughter, while seven Israelis were wounded in the Palestinian rocket fire.
It marked the heaviest exchanges of fire between the two sides since 2014's Operation Protective Edge.

Netanyahu demands Hamas ceasefire
On Sunday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke out for the first time about last week's deadly flare-up on the Gaza border, demanding a "total" ceasefire from Hamas' rulers.
"We are in the midst of a campaign against terror in Gaza," Netanyahu said at the start of a Cabinet meeting. "It will not end with one blow.
"Our demand is clear: a total ceasefire. We shall not be satisfied with less than that," he added.
Hardliners in Netanyahu's Cabinet have called on the prime minister to act more strongly against the latest Hamas' latest aggressions.

Little scope for a truce
The recent uptick in violence has seen UN officials and Egypt increase efforts to secure a truce deal between Israel and Hamas, albeit with little success so far.
Almost 170 Palestinian protestors have been killed by Israeli military fire during the protesters, while one Israeli soldier was killed by a Palestinian sniper, since clashes began on the border in March.
Hamas, considered a terrorist group by Israel and much of the West, has demanded the lifting of an 11-year blockade on Gaza imposed by Israel and Egypt.
Israel, meanwhile, has demanded Hamas and its followers stop launching incendiary projectiles across the border, burning swathes of Israeli territory.
On Sunday, Israeli daily Haaretz reported that officials in Jerusalem were formulating a plan to assassinate several senior Hamas leaders, although it would first wait to see the outcome of the upcoming negotiations brokered by Egypt and the UN before going ahead.

Real life?
No idea how to start this post. I guess I'm still struggling with non-attachment. To things, people, routine, income... post topics. I have no problem ditching my stuff or a town or a job, but ask me to come up with a new way to support myself, emotionally, physically, financially and I am at a loss.
Interestingly, the one constant in my life could be my practice, but I seem to have forgotten that over the course of the last few (very stressful) months. I've been a little off balance as a result of all the change, and I've let the things that sustain me, the things that keep me loose, go. I've abandoned my practice in a period of the greatest stress I've known in the last few years. It makes no sense.
Fortunately, nothing stays the same for long. My absence from yoga has come to an end just as my mala came to end. (Just as I hope the cellulite I acquired on my hiatus will meet a swift end). As I sat (and sweated. SWEATED) on my mat this afternoon, I struggled through some standing poses and arm balances, keenly aware of how much strength I've lost since April. I was a bit frustrated, a bit too attached to my performance in this practice. Thankfully, as we moved to the mats (everything changes!), I found that my flexibility hadn't suffered in the least. Looking back at this past month, I see myself trying to power through the transitions, trying to force things to be how I want them to be right away, not really giving myself a chance to adjust to the rhythms of my new life. Looking back, I see that my greatest strength, for lack of a better word, is my flexibility. My ability to roll with what comes and adjust my plans accordingly. If I learn to be strong in one thing, what do I do when that thing changes? Better to be flexible and have a loose plan that leaves room for the inevitable Goddess of change who so often graces us with her presence.
Things change, they come and go, life goes on. Recently, I've been trying to power through the twists and turns of my life and I've realized that strength is not my... strength, for lack of a better word. This has always been true on the mat, I can't hold myself up to save my own arse, but I can twist myself around backwards all day long. I need to remember this when confronted with the vast changes going on right now - I can't jsut force things to be how I want them to be. I can, however, roll with the changes and loosen up. Take care of myswelf so that I'm better prepared for anyhting that may come my way.

Suillus luteus or 'Slippery Jack' mushrooms are common in our local pine forests.
Suillus luteus or 'Slippery Jack'
Slippery Jacks belong to the Suillaceae family. They are classed as boletes, which have pores under their cap rather than gills.
ECOLOGY: Introduced species. Mycorrhizal with exotic conifers. (Including pines such as Pinus radiata.)
CAP: 5-12cm in diameter. Convex, becoming broadly convex-flat with maturity. Dark brown, reddish brown or yellowish brown in colour with a slimy texture when wet.
PORES: Pale yellow, becoming darker yellow – olive yellow with maturity.
STEM: Up to 8cm length. White – brown veil which also has a slimy texture when wet. Small, light brown dots above the veil.
SPORE PRINT: Brown
EDIBILITY: Edible. Best to use dehydrated and added to soups or stews. sautéeing may cause the mushroom to collapse and turn into an unpleasant, gelatinous mess.
OTHER NOTES: Suillus granulatus is also referred to as 'Slippery Jack' and is also edible. Identifying features are very similar to S.luteus but S. granulatus lacks a veil.

Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) is a term used to describe harm or abuse occurring within an intimate relationship. IPV can be perpetuated by both current and former partners, and does not require sexual intimacy. One can experience or perpetrate IPV at any age, although youth aged 18-24 are most likely to experience IPV.
While there are many different ways through which IPV manifests itself, it generally falls into five main categories. Although IPV may look different from case to case, IPV always depends on power and control, and generally involves taking away the victim's autonomy.
Physical abuse can look like preventing access to an object or a space, as well as pinching, scratching, hitting, scarring, burning, pulling hair, choking or restraining. It can even look like not allowing access to necessary objects, like medicine or food. More about physical abuse can be found here.
Emotional/Mental/Verbal abuse includes the use of manipulation, put-downs, blame shifting and gaslighting. An abuser typically uses manipulation and put-downs by either targeting or creating insecurities for the victim. Blame shifting refers to the classic, "I wouldn't have hit you if you had listened to me," where the abuser attempts to make the victim feel at fault for the violence they suffer from. Gaslighting refers to invalidating or obscuring one's sense of reality, for example, pretending not to remember previous incidents of violence.
Financial abuse involves preventing school or work attendance, or forcing work. It can also look like witholding credit cards, giving allowances, holding debt over someone's head. Forcing work can bleed into the area of human trafficking. More about financial abuse can be found here.
Technological abuse can look like excessive or unwanted texts or calls, unwanted sexting, going through one's phone, or controlling one's social media. It can also involve tracking a partner through apps like Find My iPhone. This type of abuse is most prominent within youth partnerships. More about technological abuse can be found here.
Sexual Abuse involves pressuring or forcing or coercing someone either verbally or physically to engage in sexual acts with the abuser, or someone else. This can bleed into technological abuse, in the form "revenge porn."
