The Workplace And Anger. We react in anger while at work as a reaction to how our boss or co-workers are
treating us. Anger may also result from unfair business practices.
Work place stress and anxiety regarding job performance can also trigger anger. What can we do to lessen the
workplace anger triggers?
Accept that there will be people at work that will disagree with us, will rub us the wrong way and may even
really irritate us in mannerisms, words or actions.
Identify what triggers upset us while at work. What does your boss do that upsets you? What do your co-workers
do that really gets your anger up?
Write it all down in your Anger Journal. Sometimes these triggers are behaviors that bosses or co-workers do as
a way to "get at you". Like kids playing a mischievous prank. This happens especially when they know you are
sensitive about something or they can get a "rise out of you".
If this is the case, try your best to recognize it, and ignore it. When they do not get the desired response
from you, they will stop doing these things. Have self-respect for who you are and your abilities. No one is
perfect. We all make mistakes. Despite the mistakes you may make at work; you are still a worthy individual with
If a co-worker or boss acts in anger towards you, (unless you are in danger) take time to think about what has
been said and see if it makes sense in the "non-workplace world". If it doesn't than, ignore the outburst. Meeting
anger with anger will only create a situation that will quickly get out of hand.
Some work situations cannot be reasoned or understood. They just exist to irritate and upset those who have to
work there. Do your best to look at situations and decide what is really important and what is just "stuff".
Sometimes you just have to rise above the office clutter.
Do your work and leave at the end of the day. Getting involved emotionally with some of the office clutter can
lead to emotionally charged situations that are better avoided. Is there a purpose to any office negativity that
you can discern? When a situation can be identified and understood, it is easier to manage.
Threats, demands, begging, "brown nosing", these are all elements of workplace mischief. They are designed to
get a reaction out of you. Recognize it for what it is and understand that reacting in like manner back can leave
you feeling powerless and ashamed of yourself.
If others are angry with you, ask them to take the time to cool off first and then ask them to air
their grievances with you in a not confrontational manner. They can let you know how they feel by email, or
interoffice memo. When they write to you, ask them to explain what it is that they are seeking from you.
When faced with a situation that could potentially make you angry, instead of lashing out, force
yourself to stay calm. This means not just controlling and calming your outward behavior, but
also controlling and calming your body's internal response to the situation.
Acknowledge their grievance and suggest a problem solving session. When you agree that they have a
right to a grievance with you are validating their feelings. Showing you respect them, can open channels of
communication so that peace can be restored.

Complete Baseball Release | Complete Softball Release
GREENWOOD, Ind. - On June 5, the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) announced the 2018 Google Cloud Academic All-America Division III Baseball and Softball teams. Among the student-athletes honored were CJ Novogradac (CMC) and Briana Halle (CMC). Both Novogradac and Halle earn the first Academic All-America nods of their career with Novogradac earning First Team as a designated hitter and Halle picking up Second Team honors as an infielder.
The honors come less than a month after Halle and Novogradac were named First Team Academic All-District for their combined athletic and academic performances.
In the classroom, Novogradac boasts an impressive 3.92 grade point average (GPA) as a Economics & Finance major at Claremont McKenna. As mentioned this is the first Academic All-America honor for the Stags' designated hitter.
On the field, Novogradac broke out during his junior season and was a mainstay in the Stags' line-up all year long. Slotting in the middle of the order for CMS, Novogradac appeared in 39 games and led the Stags with a .346 batting average and .462 on base percentage. He was second on the team with a .529 slugging percentage, finishing the year with nine doubles, two triples, and four home runs. As the primary designated hitter, the righty drove home 30 runs while scoring 27 of his own during the 2018 campaign.
Like Novogradac, Halle earns her first Academic All-American accolade after a stellar senior season in the classroom and on the field. The Claremont McKenna valedictorian held an impressive 3.98 cumulative GPA while majoring in Science and Management. She also received the Best Overall Senior Award from the science department.
On the field, the first baseman batted .350 with 43 hits while collecting seven doubles with 21 RBI and 18 runs scored. Halle helped the Athenas to a SCIAC Tournament Championship and an appearance in the NCAA Tournament with a .429 on-base percentage and .407 slugging percentage this season while also turning in a .991 fielding percentage at first base.
With their honors, Novogradac and Halle become just the 10th and 11th Academic All-Americans in Claremont-Mudd-Scripps (CMS) department history. They are the first since Tyler Gaffney (men's basketball) was named Second Team in 2014-15. The 2017-18 season marks the second year that CMS had multiple Academic All-Americans in the same academic year, joining the 2012-13 year when Harmony Palmer (softball) and Kristin Lim (women's tennis) both earned First Team nods.

Using the XML Source Component
The XML Source component is an SSIS source component that can be used to retrieve XML documents from an HTTP URL or a local file. The components will then break up the structure and produce column data which can be consumed by downstream SSIS pipeline components.
Data Source Page
The data source page determines where your XML documents are coming from. The connection manager property can either be set to an HTTP Connection Manager, or a local file.
- Connection: Local File
- Local File Path
The path on the file system to the XML document that will be extracted.
- Encoding
The encoding of the document that will be retrieved.
- Connection: HTTP Connection Manager
If an HTTP connection manager is selected the UI will display request settings that are used to determine the content of HTTP requests.
- HTTP Method
The HTTP method that will be used to send requests.Available methods include:
- Relative Path
The relative path is the second part of the URL that will be used to make the HTTP request. It is combined with the base path from the connection manager to form the full path. The relative path can contain query string parameters, but they can also be added individually in the grid below.
- Query String Parameters
Query string parameters that will be appended to the full path when sending HTTP requests.
- Request Headers
Request headers that will be combined with the headers in the connection manager and included with HTTP requests.
- Request Body
The body of the HTTP request.
- Import WSDL
Since v7.0, XML Source component supports importing WSDL to generate SOAP request. Clicking the Import WSDL to load WSDL file and build your SOAP request.
The WSDL specifies the location of the WSDL that you are trying to read from. This location can be either a location on the file system, or a URL. For example a value of: c:\wsdl\mathservice.wsdl or http://localhost:28854/MathService.svc?wsdl will both work. There is a button labelled "..." beside the source WSDL field that will launch a dialog let you select a file from the file system. If you select a WSDL file using the open file dialog provided by the "..." button the WSDL file will automatically be loaded upon clicking OK.
- Load WSDL
The Load WSDL button will try to load a WSDL file from the location specified in the Source WSDL field, and it will populate the other fields in the editor with information from the loaded WSDL file. Use this button after you have entered the path of a WSDL file into the source WSDL field. If you select a WSDL file from the open file dialog provided by the "..." button the WSDL file will automatically be loaded upon clicking OK.
- SOAP Version
The SOAP Version option indicates the SOAP version that the target web service uses. Our component will automatically detect the SOAP version while loading the WSDL file.
- Service
Select a Service from the list of services contained in the web service.
- Binding
Select a Binding from the list of bindings contained in the service.
- Operation
Select an Operation from the list of operations contained in the binding.
- Custom Header
Custom headers can be specified in the Custom Headers grid.
- WS Addressing Headers
WS-Addressing Headers can be used to specify message routing data within SOAP request header per the target web service requires. The following options are available:
- Unique Message ID (MessageID)
- Message Destination (To): Message destination URI.
- Source Endpoint (From): Source endpoint that dispatched this message
- Reply Endpoint (ReplyTo): Reply endpoint to which reply messages should be dispatched
- Fault Endpoint (FaultTo): Fault endpoint to which fault messages should be dispatched
- Action (Action): Required action.
- Relationship (RelatesTo): Message ID to which the message relates
- Namespaces
Namespace can be specified in the Namespaces grid.
- Generate Request/Response button
The Generate Request/Response button allows you to populate the SOAP request/response based on the latest changes you have made in above settings.
- Request
The body of the SOAP request generated by above settings.
- Response
The body of the SOAP response generated by above settings.
- Import
The Import option allows you to determine which part is going to be imported to XML Source component. There are five options available:
- Request Body
- Response Body (Design Page)
- Http Headers
- Http Method
- Nampespaces
- Request Again Rule
The request again rules allows paged data to be retrieved. After each request the request again rule is evaluated and if it evaluates to 'True' another request will be sent. If the rule evaluates to false or is left blank no more requests will be sent.
- Max Identical
The max identical property will raise an error if a certain number of identical requests are sent. The purpose of this feature is to prevent accidentally sending the same request in a never ending loop. If 0 is selected the feature will be disabled and an unlimited of identical requests can be sent.
- Preview Button
The preview button launch the Preview dialog which will send the first request based on the current settings of the component, and show a preview of the response. If there are more requests based on the value of the request again rule they can be sent and the response previewed by clicking the 'Next' button. The Preview dialog is a good way to identify HTTP configuration problems without running the package.
- Import Settings Button
Click Import Settings button to import the configurations from a file.
- Export Settings Button
Click Export Settings button to save the configurations of the component to a JSON file later for reuse.
- Expression fx Icon
Click the blue fx icon to launch SSIS Expression Editor to enable dynamic update of the property at run time.
- Generate Documentation Icon
Click the Generate Documentation icon to generate a Word document which describes the component's metadata including relevant mapping, and so on.
- Expression Editor
Many of the properties on this page can be set as either a text merged field or an expression. Properties default to text merge mode, but can be changed to expression mode in the Expression Editor. The expression editor for a property can be launched by clicking the fx button. The expression editor has some predefined tokens:
- RequestCount
The number of requests that have been sent. This will be 0 on the first request and incremented by 1 after each request.
- ResponseBody
This is the body of the response from the previous request. On the first request is will be empty.
- GetValueFromPreviousResponseHeaders
This is a function that is used to the value of HTTP headers from the previous response. This function is only available in expression mode.
- ValueExistsFromPreviousResponseHeaders
This function returns a boolean specifying if a value of the header with a specified name exists from the response of the preceding request.
- AccessToken
Returns the access token for sending requests. The token file needs to be generated by OAuth 2 Token Generated and specified in the HTTP Connection Manager's Authentication page.
- Expression Editor Text Merge Mode
In text merge mode, property values will be whatever text was entered, but with any variables or special tokens replaced with their actual values before each HTTP request is sent.
- Expression Mode
In expression mode the property is set to an expression which is evaluated before each request to determine the value of the field. Expressions can contain variables and special tokens, but also functions and conditional logic. The functions in the Value Lookup Functions category may be particularly useful for this component, as they can be used to look up values and Json documents and HTTP headers.
Design Page
This page allows you to import an example XML document or an XSD schema either from a local file, or using your HTTP settings. The imported document is used to generate the expected hierarchy of incoming XML documents. From there you can add and remove nodes manually to refine the structure.
Once you've added some nodes by either importing or manually adding, you may need to refine the structure by editing the node properties. The following properties will have an effect on the extract process:
- XML Name: This is the name of the element or attribute as it is in the expected XML. Notice when this property is changed the XPath and Data Name properties are automatically updated.
- Data Name: This is the name of the Output (green rows) or Column (yellow rows). Notice that some rows do not have a Data Name property. This is because these are nodes that define hierarchy and have no immediate value to extract. These nodes are important however because it affects the XPath of child nodes.
Type: There are 6 different XML node types to choose from:
- Complex Element: This node contains other nodes of any other type.
- Repeating Complex Elements: This is a Complex Element that may repeat multiple times at the current XPath position.
- Element: This node is a basic element containing a value.
- Repeating Elements (Column): This node is a basic element containing a value that may repeat multiple times at the current XPath position. The output column will contain delimited text of all the values. You can change the qualifier and delimiter values of the delimited text in the Columns Page.
- Repeating Elements (Output): This node is a basic element containing a value that may repeat multiple times at the current XPath position. This type will create a new output with a record for each occurrence of the element.
- Attribute: This node is an attribute of the parent node.
Prefix: This contains a list of prefixes defined in the Namespaces table in the General Page, along with two special values:
- <<Inherit>>: This node has the same prefix used by its parent. If there is no parent, then there is no prefix.
- <<None>>: This node will use no prefix, even if its parent does.
- XPath: This property is not editable but instead generated based on the above properties.
General Page
Configure Input and Output settings, along with defining namespaces.
- Null Mode
Specifies what represents a NULL value in the XML. There are three options:
- Not Found: If an element cannot be found then the value is NULL.
- Empty String: If an element cannot be found or is empty then the value is NULL.
- xsi:nil: If an element cannot be found or the element has an attribute of "xsi:nil" set to "True" then the value is NULL.
- Outputs
In the Outputs data grid, you can check and uncheck outputs to specify if you wish to have these outputs in your component. You can also configure the following properties:
- Output Name: The name of the output
- Key Field: This specifies the identifier column for this output. This is important for linking outputs with each other. By default, the Key Field is set to '_RowIndex' which is a special field that contains the current count of this output element. This is useful because many times an XML object will have no key field because relationships are defined hierarchically. During runtime, the value of this field will go into the _ParentKeyField field of all of this output's children.
- Namespaces
Add and remove namespaces (by clicking the '+' and '-' buttons) and assign them prefixes. Note, the prefix does not need to match that of the incoming XML. It is simply used as an alias in XPaths that use this namespace.
Columns Page
Configure column settings for each output.
Select the output whose columns you wish to configure in the top left combo box. Select a column in the data grid on the left to populate its properties in the property grid on the right.
- The Columns Page grid consists of:
- Column Name: Column that will be retrieved.
- Data Type: The data type of this field.
- Properties window for the field listed
- Column Type: Description of the selected column.
- Name: Specify the column name.
- CodePage: Specify the Code Page of the field.
- Data type: The data type can be changed according.
- Length: Specify the Length of the fields. If the data type specified is a string, the length specified here would be the maximum size. If the data type is not a string, the length will be ignored.
- Precision: Specify the number of digits in a number.
- Scale: Specify the number of digits to the right of the decimal point in a number.
There are a couple of special columns to take note of:
- _RowIndex: This column contains the current count of this output element.
- _ParentKeyField: This column contains the value of this records parent key field.

This Week in Prayer, Service & Community - April 7, 2017/
This week – April 7, 2017
Dear All:
Christ's Peace.
This Week in Prayer
Once again, "carpe kindness" – "seize the opportunity to be kind." Every Sunday in Lent has challenged us to imitate Jesus' amazing kindness. Last Sunday it was about giving people "mulligans" – about not holding it against others when we are kind to them and they do not respond with kindness – about letting them have a do-over after they have been unkind or cranky. Jesus gives us that lesson during his visit to Bethany, and so we think of the "Bethany Mulligan."
Jesus' visit to Bethany was an exercise in kindness. He went to give great gifts of faith to Martha, Mary, Lazarus and their friends. Sunday's gospel speaks four times of Jesus' love for his friends and theirs for him. That sort of love allows only for kind initiatives. Even his delay in going to Bethany, after learning of Lazarus' illness, was an expression of kindness. The delay enabled greater gifts to be given.
Mary's reply to Jesus – "Lord if you had been here my brother would not have died" – is a complex one. It expresses affection and confidence in Jesus' power. It also reveals disappointment, an urge to accuse and an underestimation of Jesus' affection and kindness. But Jesus does not reply harshly to Mary. He appreciates the pain and sadness behind her somewhat harsh greeting. He consoles her and helps her trust God. He gives no indication of counting it against her. Jesus, knowing she is going through a very rough patch, gives her a mulligan. He does the same with Martha when she replays the exchange.
What about you? In what moments or relationships are you, appreciating that another is going through a difficult hour, letting them off the hook for being a little cranky when you are being kind? Are you being kind to an ailing loved one and getting some harsh blowback? Are you giving a Bethany Mulligan to one of your children, being kind and getting measurable grief in response? Is it a colleague? Someone in the neighborhood, someone in class or on your team or an old friend or a new one? Chronic tolerance of bad behavior is a separate issue. The Bethany Mulligan is about being clear "A person I love is sad and off her or his game and I will absorb it." And as you dole out the Bethany Mulligans, as you imitate Christ's kindness toward the temporarily ungrateful and unkind, can you see God smiling on you?
Confessions will run from 3:30 to 4:25 this Saturday. Might it feel like time to offload your regret?
Our Morning of Recollection for members of many ministries is tomorrow, Saturday, April 8. All liturgical ministers are invited. So are the members of all councils and committees and all who help build up the community. Join us for Mass at 8:30 if you can – then donuts, some food for thought, some quiet time, and time to get with the other members of your ministry. Lunch is at noon.
The missal provides three ways to start Palm Sunday Mass: The Procession, the Solemn Entrance, and the Simple Entrance. The 9:30Palm Sunday Mass will use the Procession and will begin in the gathering space or in front of church, depending on the weather. All the other Masses will begin with the Solemn Entrance – which means that you get your palms from the ushers on the way into church and go to your place before Mass starts. With the Solemn Entrance, after the unusual opening of Mass (extra prayer and procession gospel), hold your palms up good and high for the presider to bless.
The men's Cornerstone Group meets this Monday at 7:30. Jack Kirnan from the St Catherine's group will give a "Walking with God" witness before we share the "Gift from God" and "Hand of God" moments. Jack's witness will both provide meaningful observations of God's ways and help us know how to do it. Jack is a partially retired banker and business teacher.
Check out the liturgy Holy Week schedule for Holy Week. It will be good to pray together frequently.
- Listen to this week's readings and homily
- Read this week's readings
- Read next week's readings
This week in service:
The sign-up sheet for the Patriot Stadium ministry will be in the gathering space again this weekend. If your ministry has figured out which night it will cover, terrific. Sign up AND email Suzanne Kral.
30 Hour Famine: On Friday and Saturday April 28-29 50 St. Joe's teens and adults will be going without food - all for a great cause. Their goal is to raise $15,000 for charities that are part of the solution to world hunger including Elijah's Promise, S.H.I.P., World Vision and Catholic Charities. Take a prayer/pledge card after mass and support a teen making a difference – the project needs your financial support AND your prayers. $30 makes a huge difference in the life of a child. Project success truly encourages our young people to be great priests, prophets and kings.
This week in community:
The parish cookbooks will be available on Mother's Day. We hope to provide one free copy to every household and to sell the others for $5. It has been a labor of love and the result will delight many.
Comedy night is May 8. Mark the date and prepare to laugh.
It's not too early to signup for our 4th Annual 5K at St. Joe's.
Sorry for the confusion about the Easter flowers. It would be nifty if you could help us make the church beautiful. On the Moses table in the gathering space you will find envelopes that have printed on them a big Easter lily and the phrase "flower offering." Take one with you and put it in the collection basket when you get the chance. Once again, keep in mind, if you are having a tough financial spell – don't even think about supporting the flower fund. And even if you are having a good year, this collection is not about giant donations. Its about $5 - $20 gifts. Thanks. This year's gifts determine next year's flowers.
Also – to clarify upcoming causes that you might want do support: Palm Sunday, retired priests; Holy Thursday, Social Ministries; Good Friday, the Holy Land.
With all best blessings for your final days of Lent and your move into Holy Week.
Fr Hank.

Quote: "How many died? How many died on that ship? Or underneath it as it fell? That, coupled with the feeling of victory in her heart, the one that tells her the New Republic may just have finished the war. It is a crass dichotomy, that feeling; she's felt it before and she'll feel it again. The triumphant heart warring the the grief born of war."

Hi Can anyone advise regarding responsibility for changing lightbulbs in a non standard lightfitting. The property has flush fitting lights rather than standard bulb holders and two bulbs have gone, tenant advised he tried to change bulb but as it isn't a standard light fitting he isn't sure how to do it. Would this be Landlord responsibility or would the onus be on the tenant to pay for an electrician to change bulb if he can't figure it out.? All bulbs were noted as working at start of tenancy.

The Training Zone is a studio in Buckhead that has been around longer than almost all of the studios combined life. Matthew Hurst owns TZ and does a lot of his business in personal or small group training. I happened upon this studio when I met my husband. We were dating and he wanted to take me to this class he took every Saturday morning. I was not familiar with the group fitness scene yet and it was back when classes were still a little cheesy and lame so I was not impressed that my new boyfriend wanted to take me to his Saturday morning fitness class!
However, I quickly changed my mind about how "tough" my boyfriend was after taking Matthew's class. This guy was mean but nice, tough but professional, and the class was like nothing I had ever done. This class is still offered and I think he has named it Endurance Sweat or something like that but this is not the class I took this time.
I wanted to take a great spin class because I knew that Flywheel was coming to town and wanted to scope out the options for spin in the city. Matthew has the bikes with computers on them like Flywheel bikes to so it was good to see even one of the oldest studios in Atlanta staying up to speed on the technology!
Just like Matthew, the class was kick ass and no-nonsense. He pushes you to push yourself but be smart. He talks through the class, plays great hard-core music, and his bike faces the same way your bike does so it is like we are all riding a group ride outside together.
My Take: I would go to any and all of Matthew's classes any day of the week. I wouldn't go to show off a workout outfit, socialize, or hang out like I would a few other studios I visit. TZ is one of the places that I would go if I had a goal to reach or a race to train for and I know that I will get the best instruction and most professional advice from Matthew.

Isaiah 55:6-7 Seek the Lord while He may be found, call you upon Him while He is near. 7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return to the Lord, and He will have mercy upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.
Do you find yourself in need of God's mercy on today?
God sends forth an invitation to receive mercy for all who stand in need of it on today, for He says "come unto me all ye who are labor and a heavy laden and I will give you rest."
It is only through God's grace and mercy that we can be healed and made whole again.
God commands us to seek Him with our whole heart, for this is where the seeking for mercy begins.
We are told in this text to "seek the Lord while He may be found". This tells me that there is a possibility of seeking God and not being able to find Him.
When will there ever be a time when God cannot be found? When a heart is harden against God, it cannot seek, hear from God nor find God. When the heart is harden, that is the time when God's still voice and gentle touch cannot be heard nor felt. We must humble ourselves under the Mighty Hands of God.
By means of His only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ, God has given us 24/7 access to His throne of grace and mercy. As a matter of fact, He bids us to come.
If you find yourself not being able to find God when you seek Him, it is a matter of the heart. Proverbs 4:23-Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. Indeed, the mouth speaks what is in the heart.
If you personally make the choice to seek the Lord on today, He promises you that you will find Him. Jeremiah 29:13-You shall seek Me and find Me, when you shall search for Me with all your heart.
Proverbs 8:17 - I love those who love me, and those who seek me find me.
True peace, forgiveness of sins, grace, redemption, mercy, eternal and everlasting love, joy and hope can only be found in God our Father and Creator. He knows exactly what we need and He is able to provide all of it if we would seek Him and not things or other people for what only God can provide and give to those whom He loves, created and cares for.
Are you in need of God's mercy on today?
The invitation has been given. The command has also been given. Seek the Lord, call upon the Lord, forsake your wicked ways and unrighteous thoughts, return to God and He promises to show you mercy and abundantly pardon you.
If you are seeking mercy on today, God has made it available to you through Christ Jesus.
God bless and do tell the Lord thank you for He is a Merciful God.

New beginnings/
"And suddenly you know: It's time to start something new and trust the magic of beginnings" Meister Eckhart
This was where I was two years ago. I was a VP and Partner at a media services company and was stressed out and it was taking a toll on my health and happiness. I had high blood pressure, shot adrenals and knew something needed to change. I decided it was time to follow my passion for nutrition and head back to school. It was scary, but I took the jump and haven't looked back.
Right around the same time my daughter was having some pretty major digestive issues and dairy was eliminated from her diet. Diet suddenly became a huge focus personally for me and my daughter to help us heal.
I was able to heal myself through proper food and nutrition and continue to do so with my daughter. I want to help you do the same. Your issues might not be the same as mine, but they too can be healed and you can be restored to health.
I have a strong belief in the power of food and proper nutrition to keep us in our best health and prevent disease. My goal is to help empower people to make healthy and mindful decisions for themselves to achieve optimal health.
Today I am starting my own nutrition company. I offer many different personalized plans to help you achieve your own goals and as time goes on I will be offering more group programs.
I have a keen interest in food sensitivities, stress and digestive health, and disease prevention. I want you to lead a holistic, healthy and mindful life. I don't want it to be difficult. I want to work with you to formulate a plan that will work. I don't believe in diets I believe in a healthy lifestyle.
I will be using this blog as a forum to share tips, recipes and hopefully a bit of my life! I do hope you will follow along and please sign up for my newsletter on the site.
If you have a desire for better health and are ready to take responsibility for your health than please drop me a line for a free 20 minute consultation!
Thanks for stopping by,

Natural Herpes Treatments vs Prescription Drugs
Natural Herpes Treatments vs Prescription Drugs
Whether you're taking a prescription drug or considering using it as herpes treatment, there are now some new and very effective alternatives. Although some people find prescription drugs work well for their condition, others are now experiencing the incredible benefits from a combination of natural ingredients recently introduced to the marketplace and proven to kill the herpes virus in clinical studies.
Some prescription drugs have showed to be effective but, unfortunately, most of them are costly and have unpleasant side effects (ranging from headaches to such extremes as kidney damage). In the meanwhile, many of the alternative remedies actually boost your immune system and are often much cheaper.
There are various herpes treatments available to help alleviate pain and itching during outbreaks and clear sores up fast. Yet some natural herpes treatments now have ingredients that actually kill the virus and dramatically reducing or eliminating outbreaks. For example, Mediviral is a very effective anti-viral treatment with ingredients proven to prevent herpes outbreaks when used as directed.
People are now taking alternative herpes suppressants similar to a multivitamin claiming its not only minimizing the outbreaks but in some cases it eliminates them altogether. Even more, the natural anti-viral properties of these products are actually minimizing other possible viral occurrences such as shingles, chicken pox and similar.
Are Cold Sores Really Herpes?
There has always been confusion regarding cold sores that appear on the mouth and lips, and genital herpes. Cold sores are known as HSV-1, and genital herpes are known as HSV-2. Both types are a form of herpes, so technically, yes, they are the same to an extent. HSV-1, or cold sores, can be spread to the genitals during oral sex, and they can also be spread through kissing, sharing toothbrushes, utensils, and drinking from the same glass of an infected person during an outbreak. HSV-2 can also be transmitted to the mouth during oral sex, which is what makes the two different viruses a bit confusing, as they technically can be one in the same as far as symptoms and outbreaks.

Dear Daria,
I think this is a really interesting and important approach.
Following up from Johnny's thoughts, it's not clear to me whether
your target audience will already have some knowledge of aging
research, which of course will affect how you tailor your message.
I think as a field we need to do all sorts of convincing, that is,
we need less people opposed to life extension research, we need more
people interested in aging, more people active in combating aging,
etc. For instance, as the surveys show, most people are not even
aware of research on aging and this is one of the first things we
need to change; in this context, a simple message pointing out that
aging can be manipulated and both lifespan and healthspan extended I
think is one way to go, like here:http://ift.tt/1tlyv0o
But then we also need to convince people that life extension
research is worthwhile and will not lead to overpopulation or other
catastrophic consequences. So far some audiences, like other
scientists, we may need to go into more detail. I have some essays
on this on my website, like this one which also covers the major
counter arguments to research on aging:http://ift.tt/1tlysBC
Then we also need messages on how to convince people already
interested in aging research to take action. I'm not sure about
this, but I would guess it depends on what sort of action you are
expecting. If you are hoping for people to, say, give money to a
nonprofit then the message will reflect this, for instance by
showing how important the work of the nonprofit thus far has been.
I hope this helps and I would be very interested to know of the
results you obtain.

Dear Colleagues,
We have funding to perform up to 3 focus groups
to test messages to convince people that we need to combat
aging. The testing will be done in Moscow in January-February,
2015. The target audience is limited to people with a
university degree.
We, as a global community, need research data on
what messages work to convince people to fight aging, what
work less, what counterarguments arise, how they can be
countered effectively. We need it to speak to philanthropists,
scientists, civil servants, journalists, our friends and
This study should be one out of many in the
future; we should test it in many cultures.
Right now, we are at the stage of collecting the
messages to test.
Therefore, please send us your ideas on:
§ What messages do you use to convince people of
the need to combat aging
§ What messages work best to convince people of the
need to combat aging for you and for other activists?
§ What messages cause the opposition? Which kind?
How do you or other people counter it?
§ What is the best order of messages to convince
people step by step?
We are collecting the messages during the next
week. Please send your ideas to us on email or insert them
into the Google Doc: http://ift.tt/1tAWmyQ
We would also be thankful for your advice on
focus group information and on the similar studies done before

Elmhurst 1 of 8 Officially Designated Bike-Friendly Communities in Illinois
Last week, the second edition of the Prairie State Cycling Series at Elmhurst proved to be a huge success, drawing 400 entries of local rookies and international professionals alike. The popularity of the race could be largely attributed to one of Elmhurst's more recent and distinguished recognitions...
Did you know Elmhurst is one of only EIGHT communities in Illinois to be an officially designated bike-friendly community?
Three hundred communities nationwide can say that, and Elmhurst is proud to be one of them.
Being a bike-friendly city is great for both the health of community members as well as the environment. For many home-seekers, bike-ability is a huge draw when considering a move to a new town. The Elmhurst Bike Task Force worked hard to put together the necessary plans in order to achieve this designation, as well as placing a higher priority on accommodating the 'casual cyclist.' The task force wanted to focus on making it easy for anyone to just hop on a bike and run to the store, rather than focus on a niche of die-hard cyclists. Beyond giving Elmhurst an easy and fun way to commute around town, this plan and execution demonstrated commitment to achieve a goal as a community.
Did the recent race get your mind in gear to take up casual cycling? If you're ready to get back on the bike and see what all the bike friendly fuss is about, but don't want to over-commit (or over-spend), check out one of the used biked stores nearby in Chicago for great deals, as recently featured in TimeOutChicago Magazine. Get yourself comfortable with the different options and styles and find what is right for you, without breaking the bank! This is the perfect time of year to get outside and enjoy the trails.
We never run out of Elmhurst Pride. If you're looking to relocate to Elmhurst, we are happy to help welcome anyone to the community and help you find your new home. Please give us a call at 630-441-5570 or visit us on the web at www.gmregroup.com for more information!

Unless you're King Midas, money isn't an end in itself. It's an enabler. We use it to provide the things we, our families, and our communities need and want so we have an amazing life together.
Banks almost always put themselves in the wrong place in this story. They craft their business model as if the banking transaction is the final step in the customer's process. It's not. It's usually somewhere in the middle. One banker says simply, "The customer is not thinking about buying a mortgage. They are thinking about buying a house."
What would banks do differently if they had the story straight?
- Place the real customer experience at the top of their mind and wake up every morning trying to improve it. I am NOT talking about having a friendly greeter or a comfy sofa in the branch. The branch, and possibly the bank itself, might be completely invisible in a great customer experience.What do we experience today? One well-known bank took 20 minutes to accept an IRS refund check in deposit and warned us the funds were going to be unavailable for a week. The process left us feeling cheated, despite the comfy sofa.
- Admit that other organizations may be better at designing some of their customers' experiences, then stand back and let them do it. Google or Apple may do a better job interacting with millennials than banks could ever hope to do. Banks should go ahead and partner with these organization, but get comfortable taking a back seat. Ultimately the customers will need the bank's compliance structures and trustworthiness for their own peace of mind and they'll want it "inside" rather than in their face.
- Partner, dare I say, embed themselves with the companies that have what the customer wants. Help the customer specify and then find the car they want without losing sight of what they can afford. Provide secure, instant authentication for purchases, travel, and employer queries without revealing the customer's private data. The target? A customer who keeps coming back for life.
- Build an open banking platform that facilitates partnerships. Of course security is paramount, but most banks are quite excellent on that front. Here banks can shine by being easy for other organizations to work with. For some, this will be a stretch, and for others downright impossible. The banks that learn how to get along on the playground will be rewarded with growth.
- Find a place in their business model for micro transactions. In addition to wooing the wealthy, banks that find a way to facilitate small, high volume financial flows can end up just as healthy. Peer to peer transactions need the integrity structures banks can provide.
- Recognize depersonalized, formula-driven banking for what it is—a way to facilitate online, self-service, bankerless banking. Automation at its best. But banks shouldn't conclude that formulaic decision-making can take the place of deep, impactful banking relationships. One successful entrepreneur and community leader recently refinanced his home mortgage completely online. He commented that he wasn't even asked about his lake house or commercial building or the mortgages on those. A personal banker would never have missed these assets, the entrepreneur's character and standing in the community, or the opportunity to cultivate a relationship.
- Use the information they already have in their hands to help customers with their financial lives. Let me say it again—to help customers with their financial lives. This is different from trying to grab a larger share of the customer's wallet. More often than not, banks stand as roadblocks to their customers' success. They represent hurdles to overcome. Their favorite, risk-aware answer is "no." Tomorrow's successful banks will have a different posture. They will keep their customers' life goals top of mind and work alongside them to help make dreams possible.

Secret international trade deal places too many restrictions on local governments.
by Julie Dupuis, Straight Goods News staff
FRENCH RIVER, ON, March 20, 2012: Awareness about the Comprehensive Economic Trade Agreement (CETA) between Canada and the European Union is growing and opposition is mounting. There are currently 45 municipalities in the country that have passed — or are in the process of passing — resolutions on CETA, some seeking full exemptions from the agreement. In addition, six school boards and nationwide and province-wide municipal associations have passed similar resolutions. In total, about four million Canadian citizens are represented.
The overarching impact of CETA is to eliminate most tariffs between Canada and the EU, but as critics such as the Council of Canadians note, CETA "changes non-trade related government policies that affect business profits", potentially including labour, health, intellectual property, cultural, farming, public safety and environmental regulations.
"Many municipalities across the country — now including Toronto — recognize the value of local procurement policies in strengthening local economies."
Since CETA is being negotiated behind closed doors — there have yet to be any public hearings on the pact — local governments fear binding international rules constraining how they can spend public money.
Danny Cavanagh, President of the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) Nova Scotia, points out that CETA would "eliminate any flexibility [municipal] governments have in awarding contracts to local or even provincial companies."
Documents leaked last fall show that drinking water and wastewater services are offered as part of the trade deal. There is also concern that CETA will facilitate the privatization of public services, extend pharmaceutical patent protections and place health care services and insurance at risk. Legal actions against public authorities would increase as companies from the EU could object to being excluded from contracts above $340,000 for goods and services and those above $8.5 million for construction. The Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives (CCPA) calculates CETA would cause the loss of 28,000 to 150,000 jobs.
The Conservative government deployed familiar tactics to bypass opposition to CETA, having presented the Parliamentary Standing Committee on International Trade with plenty of CETA supporters, but restricting the participation of dissenters. They excluded key studies and reports from the committee's reading list and bolstered CETA with false economic analyses.
In light of these infractions, the lack of public consultation and the indeterminate status of the negotiations, the Trade Justice Network questions the committee's assertion that CETA is in the best interests of Canadians and urges the committee to hold another inquiry before a final deal is signed.
No one knows when that may be, but Canadian trade negotiators are in Brussels this week for the eleventh round of talks. Time is running out for concerned citizens to take action.
Asking municipalities to get involved, however, is a simple process. Last fall, alarmed by news reports about CETA's possible effects on local governance, I emailed some fact sheets on CETA to my municipal councillors, along with the Council of Canadians' draft resolution requesting an exemption from CETA.
The rural Municipality of French River is small and sees the need to develop its vision of the future in its own way. Its challenges, from youth-out migration to loss of jobs in traditional industries, are individual but not unique. Many municipalities across the country — now including Toronto — recognize the value of local procurement policies in strengthening local economies.
French River quickly and unanimously passed the resolution after briefly consulting with the Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO) and the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM). Though there were only thirteen other CETA resolutions passed in Canada at the time, it was not a contentious issue for the council; it was one of logic.
Julie Dupuis authors blogs, articles, and e-books about arts and culture, politics, Earth-friendly living, and travel
Ask your municipality to pass a resolution: Don't Gamble With Municipalities: Take cities, towns and school boards out of CETA
Demand your province or territory make its CETA procurement, services and goods offers public: Show us the deal, give us a say! Demand transparency and public input before CETA is signed

8 Time Wasters that Ruin Your Productivity
We all know the feeling, it's 8 at night, you're in a food coma, and you are wondering where the day went? You woke up that morning feel so ready to tackle the day!
Seriously, this was going to be the day that you finally took down the Christmas tree! The day you were going to re-vamp your resume to land your dream job! The day you were going to get back to the gym!
All too often we fall prey to these 8 time wasters that ruin our productivity:
1. Not sleeping enough
People who sleep less than 8 hours are more prone to making mistakes, headaches, and falling into other distractions. Also be careful of waking up in the middle of your REM cycle, this is your sleep cycle that usually takes 90 minutes to fully cycle through. If your alarm wakes you up in the middle of this, you can feel sluggish the rest of the day. Try getting to bed and waking up around the same time each day (even on the weekends!).
2. A disastrous inbox
Crowded and disorganized inboxes lead to missing deadlines or taking too many mid-day breaks to check out that lunch-time sale your favorite store just emailed you about. Also be careful of obsessively checking your email. Why? Studies show it harms your memory and can lead to increased anxiety and depression.
3. A messy workspace
A chaotic workspace leads to a chaotic mind. A messy workspace means more clutter competing for your attention, which makes it harder to shrink your to-do list for the day.
4. Working too hard
Are you trying to finish a marathon rather than working in sprints? Trying to work for 5 hours straight never ends well. Use the Pareto Principle to your advantage, which states that 20% of our effort is responsible for 80% of our productivity. In other words, work smart not hard. Get things done in chunks, followed by a quick revitalizing break, will keep your energy levels and mood up so you can get more done.
5. Social Media
Of all the time wasters, this is probably the worst offender. Do you really need to watch that cat video? How about the latest cake pop recipe? Honestly, when was the last time you made cake pops?!
6. Being a "YES" girl
Saying "yes" to things you don't want to do (or worse you don't have time to do) can drain your energy, mood, and ultimately productivity. You have to learn how to say no… a lot. The world's most successful people all have this in common, they say no.
7. The Bachelor
First off, how perfect is Ben?? Secondly, if you're anything like me you have to be careful of falling down the rabbit hole reading twitter chats about the dramatic Monday night show, revamping your Bachelor fantasy league, or spending way to much time talking about it when you should be working.
8. Multitasking
The more we switch between tasks, the less we are getting done. Research shows one thing at a time is best for our daily productivity.
Falling prey to these time wasters once in a blue moon is okay – just be careful to not make them habits. Focus on identifying and breaking your time-sucking habits and you'll be able to increase your daily productivity and make it possible to accomplish anything on your to-do list!

I find it amusing and depending on the delivery, somewhat annoying when I am accused of being "too nice to be a domme." I have been making appearances at some of the local kink events lately, seeing old friends and making new ones. It is usually somebody new to the bdsm lifestyle who says this to me, but occasionally I am surprised by hearing it from somebody who, through years of experience, should know better.
It is true that some who practice power exchange stay in their chosen role twenty-four/seven. I am not one of those people. I do not wish to confuse you, dear reader, and I am aware that most of the writing here has been in the role of a sadistic dominatrix. At the risk of bursting your little fantasy bubble, and maybe in order to, I want you to know that I am much more than the role I portray here. I have a vanilla life, just like you do. And just like you, there is a part of me that craves the joy that can occur through sadomasochistic power exchange. My inner domina comes out to play only with mutual, negotiated consent. It takes a concentrated level of mental, emotional, and physical focus to play the way I do. I inhabit a fantasy land that can be entered through the ritual of placing a play collar on your neck. You can join me there, and we can be anything we want to be. You allow yourself to suspend disbelief. You become my pet, slave, slut, servant, doll, doggy, baby, footstool, human soccer ball, whatever we want. It is intense and very real! I will control it, and when it is over, I will return you to your every day reality. Safe and sound. High on endorphins.

Arla Foods Germany is the first company to opt for the innovative SIGNATURE PACK from SIG – the world's first aseptic carton pack that is 100 % linked to plant-based renewable material. Arla now offers its 1 litre 1.5 % and 3.8 % organic milk (Arla® BIO Weidemilch) in the SIGNATURE PACK.
Responding to consumer demand
By choosing SIG's innovative SIGNATURE PACK, Arla is demonstrating its commitment to sustainability as it strives to increase the market share of its organic dairy products. Arla's organic milk cartons now carry a clear message to consumers: buying this pack promotes the use of renewable raw materials to protect fossil resources while making a positive impact in reducing the CO2 level compared with a standard carton pack.
Promoting environmental sustainability
SIGNATURE PACK cartons are made from 77 % paper board from wood and 23 % plant-based polymers through mass balancing. This means that for the polymers used in the SIGNATURE PACK, an equivalent amount of bio-based feedstock went into the manufacturing of the polymers. To ensure the integrity of this process, the mass balancing is certified through internationally recognised third-parties.
The packs are aluminium-free, while maintaining product quality. Their carbon footprint is 72 % lower than a standard SIG carton pack of the same format, based on a life cycle assessment (CB-100732 of 02.03.2018) carried out by independent experts using the ISO 14040 international standard.
These credentials are displayed on Arla's organic milk packs, together with the FSCTM label which shows consumers that the wood-based content comes from well-managed forests and other controlled sources in accordance to FSC requirements.
The polymers that make up the rest of the SIGNATURE PACK cartons, including the barrier and the spout, are linked to 100 % plant-based material using recognised and audited certification schemes (ISCC PLUS and TÜV SÜD CMS71) to ensure strict traceability and accountability.

The stories you have in your head about who you are, what you're capable of, and what you deserve are very likely holding you back from your goals.
Where do these stories come from? They come from our childhood, our past experiences (trauma, abusive relationships, neglect), and from our media culture.
The good news is that once you become AWARE of your stories, you can take your power back. You can create NEW stories about who you are and what you deserve in this life. You will no longer be victimized by the self-limiting, and often toxic, narrative in your head!
The reality is this: What you did or didn't do yesterday (or 10 minutes ago, for that matter) has ZERO bearing on what choices you make right now. Your past ONLY predicts or prescribes your future - your NOW - if you decide it does!
Here's where it gets tricky: You first have to get clear on the stories you're telling yourself that are keeping you stuck in the same patterns of behavior.
How to Remove the Parking Brake of Your Stories and Make Progress
Here are 5 examples of self-limiting stories I hear every single day. I encourage you to go through these and see if any of them resonate with you.
Then, scroll down and see 5 empowering alternatives to each one!
Here are some clues that a story you have about yourself is driving your choices. You say things like:
- "I'm really good for a couple of weeks and then I fall off the wagon."
- "I eat healthy all day long but when evening comes, all bets are off."
- "I go to the gym a few times but then life gets in the way and I never go back."
- "I plan to avoid the chip basket at the Mexican restaurant but when they sit it in front me, I can't help myself."
- "I want to lose weight but I just love food too much to give anything up."
All of these are stories and they are going to keep you stuck until you let go of them. The reality is that our story is far more impactful on our choices than our complicated, well-thought out strategy!
Here are some empowering, positive alternatives to each of the statements above:
- "I only eat when I'm hungry. I know I'm hungry when real food sounds good. If it doesn't, I probably need something else (a break, a walk, some water, a hard conversation I've been avoiding, etc.)."
- "I will eat a nourishing, satisfying dinner. After dinner, I'll do something I enjoy rather than using food as evening entertainment."
- "I only move in ways/locations that I enjoy. I'm willing to take the time to find out what these are. I will listen to my body and adjust my daily movement according to what my body wants and needs on a given day."
- "I'm in charge of every single bite of food I put in my mouth. If I decide restaurant tortilla chips are entirely worth deviating from my goals then AMEN, no regrets. Otherwise, I can wait for my dinner."
- "Rigid plans and food lists aren't sustainable for me. I'm going to get curious about which healthy foods and meals taste delicious to ME and make me feel my best. By doing this, I will be able to eat food I love every single day AND meet my health and body composition goals." 5B: "If I'm honest, I really don't want to lose weight right now. Since I'm a grown-up, I don't have to! I'm shifting my focus to other things!"
Taking the Reins is Easier Than You Think
You need to stop listening so much to the voices in your head that have likely been there shaming you and holding you back for way too long.
Instead, begin TELLING your brain what steps you're willing and able to make today without overwhelming yourself with a bazillion rules or strategies that will make you want to hide under the covers.
Then, you need to take small, repeated action. No drama, no excuses, no lying to yourself, no rationalizing.
You are more than worthy NOW, you are stronger than you think, and your life is ready for you to show up and take the reins.

Commercial investments can vary dramatically in size, style, and purpose, but ultimately involve a property that is leased to a business. Some commercial investors rent buildings to small local businesses, while others lease large spaces to supermarkets or big box megastores. While commercial properties often provide good cash flow and consistent payments, they also may carry with them much longer holding periods during times of vacancies; commercial property can often sit empty for many months or years. Working with a professional Realtor that specializes in commercial real estate can guide you through the process, presenting the information so you can make an informed decision

Haven't posted for a few days, been crazy hot for one reason, another is just being tied up with other things.
Didn't get much of a garden this year since it has all been manual ground breaking but what I have has gotten out of hand, with weeds. I hate weeding more than any other farming activity. I have to get a good way to manage weeds. I know there are ways out there like weed barrier but it never worked real well for me, the weeds just grew from underneath it.
Did do some weeding today.
Didn't do a spotless job and just dropped the weeds where they were. Not perfect but better than it was.

Somehow when I transferred all my data to my new phone a couple of weeks ago not all the music I had on the old one was transferred. So today, when I was going to give a massage, the music that I had hoped to play was not on there. The only thing that I thought might really work was Zoe Keating. I had never used it before and I wasn't sure but I thought I'd give it a try.
It was so good! Rhythmic, entraining... I felt my client's breathing become steadier and deeper, and my own movements became entrained to the music so that it felt like I was doing a rhythmic dance on the body- sometimes working broad flowing strokes in time to the music, sometimes focusing in on a very small area, an indentation at the base of the neck or kneading a small knot on the bottom of the foot. Next client- same music, same steady rhythmic flow. She went into a dreamlike state during the massage. They were both super-happy, much more relaxed, way less pain and I had a great experience as well. Thanks Zoe!

FL11-A Super Knit Confederate 1st National polyester 3 X 5 foot flag is printed on silky-looking, knitted polyester fabric and finished with a sturdy nylon header with two brass grommets. This flag is suitable for outdoor use and is of much higher quality than a standard printed polyester flag.
This flag was adopted but never officially enacted. For twenty five days the Confederate States of America had no officially approved flag. In their haste to have a flag prepared for the flag raising ceremony on March 4, 1861, congress neglected to formally enact a flag law. When this flag was first raised over the capitol building in Montgomery, it contained seven stars, representing the Confederate States. By the third week of May two or more stars were added representing Virginia and Arkansas. In July the addition of North Carolina and Tennessee increased the number to eleven and finally the admission of Kentucky and Missouri in December brought the circle of stars to thirteen. During battle this flag was sometimes confused with the Union Stars and Stripes, therefore it was replaced by the 2nd National flag in 1863.

Last week, our doctor had been frantically trying to reach us for 3 days. Normally, she is fine just talking to one of us, but she was extra persistent about us both being on the call to discuss something.
It was hard for us to find time where we could both be on the call at the same time, but we finally made it happen on one lovely Sunday afternoon in the Home Depot parking lot. Obviously, we knew this was going to be a serious conversation; however, we also had a serious list of errands that day.
Now, typically I would have been a f*cking train wreck worrying about this call for those 3 days leading up. I would have lost sleep. I would have created all kinds of ridiculous bull-shit scenarios in my head. And I would probably have drank a lot. Okay, maybe I did one of the three, but not for stress reasons. For fun reasons. Duh!
But this time, I was calm. I don't know if we have just been through so much that nothing can shock us anymore, or if it's because of my new found peace in life. I'm pretty sure it was a combination of the two. I honestly, couldn't even believe myself.
Sure, I shed a few tears, but not for the reasons you are probably thinking. I'll explain later.
When we started down the route of using an egg donor, everyone made it sound like it was a shoe in. I remember our doctor saying our chances of success were around 90%. When you select an egg donor, you are basically saying, okay, lets just get pregnant already. You don't really consider that it won't work. It's, simple, you choose a young girl with a ton of healthy eggs, and then you get pregnant. It's a no brainer.
At the beginning of our call on Sunday, our doctor reminded us that the egg donor process is supposed to be easy. Okay, yep, got it doc. We know that.
She then said "it's not supposed to be this difficult". Yea, we know, it's been a rough start with this egg donor, but we thought the first try was a fluke. No?
The next thing she said was all she needed to say. She said...
"Well, Victoria, your egg donor really is a perfect match to you. She's exactly like you. She looks like you, she talks like you, she acts like you, but unfortunately, even her eggs are like you."
We knew exactly what that meant.
The doctor walked us through all her recent tests and visits. The results were truly remarkable. Her levels were high just like mine. And her egg count was extremely low, just like mine.
I couldn't make this shit up if I tried.
She then said, "I have seriously never seen this happen Victoria. Her first visit she had over 20 eggs. However, as you know, infertility is an evolution and somewhere during the process things changed. She changed."
I immediately felt an overwhelming feeling of sadness. Deep, deep sadness. But this time, my sadness wasn't about me. I looked at my husband and I could tell immediately that he was sad for the same reasons as I was. My tears started to fall.
All I kept thinking was - this poor, sweet, young girl. At the age of 28 years old, she is now facing a real life game changer. My heart hurt for her. My connection with her was stronger than ever. I felt her pain like it was my own. And I don't even know her real name.
How can I help her? What can I do for her? I'll never get to meet her, but I want her to know we are thinking of her and praying for her. I don't want her to feel bad for us. It's not her fault, and she needs to know that. Meggan (or whatever your name is), we will be okay. Trust.
I plan on sending her a letter - anonymously via the agency. I wonder if you can find greeting cards with the title "F*ck You Infertility. Suck a Fat One." on the front. If there was, I'd have plenty of people to send it to that would enjoy getting that card. I know, I would.
My doctor had shared with me that after the first failed attempt Meggan was in tears because she felt like she let us down. I remember being really touched when she told me this. It meant so much to me that she cared that much about our family.
Now, I'm the one in tears because she has to face this shit. It's not fair Meggan, it's just not fair.
It's so wild to feel so strongly for someone you will never meet. I just can't explain it.
Our doctor reassured us that she would do everything she could to help Meggan and would encourage her to start thinking about her own family now. She still has a chance to freeze her eggs before it's too late. Who knows, maybe her boyfriend is "the one" and will want to start a family now!
Leave it to my optimistic husband to find the silver lining in all of this. After we hung up, he looked at me and said "Just think, if she hadn't been through this process she wouldn't have known this information for a long time. Now she is aware and can do something about it at a young age".
God love him.
So, what's next for us? We're back to the drawing board and on the search for a new donor. We're optimistic and hopeful that something good is coming our way. We're in no rush, and we know that our baby will decide when the time is right.
And I'm certain, it will be more than worth the wait.

We stayed overnight at Zhang Mu Tou (樟木頭) again, the high speed railway got us there in no time. Friday night was not as busy as expected, we got settled into our hotel room and got some rest. The next morning we got up at 6am, after another KFC breakfast we hopped onto a Taxi straight away which took us directly to the entrance of Yinpingshan Forest Park (70RMB).
Guan Yin Zuo Lian Gu Dao (觀音座蓮古道) was clearly our best choice of trail, we followed it up the hill. We immediately were greeted by calls of Pygmy Wren Babblers and Lesser Shortwings, which seemed quite active today. Our first bird was however a male Daurian Redstart, a recently arrived winter visitor to our region, the first one for me this season!
Daurian Redstart
Bird activity was slow, Mountain Tailorbirds were also calling but none showed themselves. It wasn't until we got to where we saw the Piculet last time that we heard something interesting, the call of the Bay Woodpecker. This species have been recorded here before, but we have not found this bird in our visits. I played a recording of the bird and a pair flew right in giving some half decent views, though they didn't stay long and soon flew out of sight, leaving us with their haunting calls. Still, a record shot none the less!
Bay Woodpecker
Flocks of Chestnut-collared Yuhinas kept us entertained though they were quite high up and views were not good, an interesting bird to note was a single Radde's Warbler that skulked in the undergrowth, calling constantly. It's call is easily recognised and distinguished from the similar Dusky Warbler by it's softer and more muffled tone. It did not stay long nor did it allow any photographs to be taken. Things were pretty quiet afterwards, I managed to get a clear shot at a Mountain Tailorbird. Commoner birds such as Grey-chinned Minivets made appearances.
Mountain Tailorbird
Grey-chinned Minivet
It wasn't until near the end of the trail we found some interesting species, including a flock of Blue Magpie. Lesser Shortwings were very active today, but none showed well, we found one that responded well to playback but remained fairly well hidden in the undergrowth, I only managed some record shots.
Lesser Shortwing
We heard our second pair of Bay Woodpecker, I immediately played a burst of playback and the pair responded very quickly! One actually flew out to the open at one point, which gave very good views (Bay Woodpecker standard), allowing Captain and I to take a few half decent shots before they disappeared. Captain most definitely got some better shots then I did, which make me consider very seriously about upgrading either my camera body or my lens (or both!). Bay Woodpeckers are very widespread throughout the region but is never easy to see well, this was one of my best encounter with this species so far. Seeing them so well established here, it's clear that the Hong Kong birds that have only became regulars in recent years come from forest reserves similar to this, which indicate places like Yin Ping Shan as important stepping stones for forest birds dispersal.
Bay Woodpecker
It was extremely quiet the rest of the way, we barely saw a bird! A flock of Red-billed leiothrix at close range compensated. This species have been found in all forest sites we have been to so far, and seems to be doing quite well if not better then the birds in Hong Kong. Likely because there are less competition here then in Hong Kong?

Film information
Story: Homicide detective Eddie Flemming (Robert De Niro) and arson specialist Jordy Warsaw (Edward Burns) are assigned to investigate a double murder in which the corpses have been partially burnt in a fire. They do their best to assess the evidence, but time is short, and things really hot up when the killers realise they can use the media to their own advantage. Carrying a video camera with them at all times, they tape everything they do, and when that involves commiting another murder, the chance arises to sell the footage to a television news show for a cool $1 million. The killers' fifteen minutes of fame might make them very rich indeed, but will it also lead to their arrest?

Southampton Town is aiming for a hole in one when it comes to controlling traffic during the U.S. Open Golf Championship next month.
Town officials have been hashing out strategies with representatives of the United States Golf Association to limit traffic when massive crowds visit the Shinnecock Hills Golf Club in Tuckahoe. The championship is expected to attract more than 30,000 participants and spectators per day and will run from June 11 to 17.
While the organizers have been using the 2004 U.S. Open as a baseline—that was the last time the Open was held in Shinnecock Hills—they will not be employing its "cops and cones" strategy, which added an eastbound lane to County Road 39. At the time, there was only one eastbound lane on the road.
"We learned a lot in 2004 about traffic control," said Southampton Town Supervisor Jay Schneiderman at a Town Board work session last Thursday, May 3. "Back then, we had one less lane on County Road 39. So they helped create the extra lane with cones, which showed that having that extra lane made a big difference. Now, we have that lane."
Mr. Schneiderman said he considered bringing back the "cops and cones" technique to create a bus-only lane—shuttle buses will be picking people up from special U.S. Open parking lots at Francis S. Gabreski Airport in Westhampton and at the Hampton Classic Horse Show site in Bridgehampton—but decided to go with other options instead.
For instance, officials are considering creating a blinking light on County Road 39 at the Tuckahoe Road intersection, since no turns would be permitted on that road the week of the Open. There will be police officers from multiple police agencies on the South Fork assisting with traffic as well.
"I think that light on blink would have a significant effect on reducing traffic backlog," Mr. Schneiderman said.
But the best way to limit traffic, according to organizers, is convincing spectators to take the Long Island Rail Road to Shinnecock Hills Golf Club. The LIRR announced this week that multiple extra trains will be provided to get to and from the U.S. Open, with a special stop created at the Stony Brook Southampton campus across County Road 39 from the golf course, with a pedestrian bridge employed again this year.
"I expect a large amount of spectators to come by train," Mr. Schneiderman said. "And that's how I would advise people to come."
"We are pushing people to use LIRR as much as possible," Charlie Howe, a USGA representative, added.
Last week, Mr. Howe and Hank Thompson, another USGA representative, met with Walter Dunn of Dunn Engineering in Westhampton Beach, Southampton Town Police Captain Lawrence Schurek, Town Police Lieutenant Michael Zarro, Town Police Chief Fire Marshal Cheryl Kraft and Tom Neely, the town's director of public transportation and public safety, at the session to discuss the prep.
The plans—including specific bus routes from Westhampton and Bridgehampton—were meticulously laid out for the Town Board to show that traffic would be handled in an appropriate manner.
Other plans, including securing a mass gathering permit from Suffolk County, appear to be moving forward as well.
"Things are pretty much on schedule," Ms. Kraft said.
