Just Say No
This is not a campaign against drugs…but then again, while I'm here, don't do drugs 😉
The struggle with saying no is a really interesting and relevant topic to me.
As an individual, I enjoy being needed and appreciated so if someone asks something of me, I am inclined to say yes without considering if that's really a smart choice.
As a burgeoning small business owner, it's really tempting to take business that isn't a good fit for our brand and how we do business, because "well, at least it is some money instead of no money."
As a non-profit arts administrator in a small yet multi-faceted organization with limited resources, I want everyone to love my organization as much as I do and fear that saying no can engender ill will in the community.
In all three of these cases (though I plan to focus mostly on the non-profit arts organization for this blog), learning to say no is so important. Why? Self/business/organizational preservation. Just as we talk about work/life balance all the time among arts workers (perhaps it will be featured in an upcoming blog post,) we have to apply the same principle to businesses and organizations. When it really comes down to it work/life balance is all about managing resources: time, energy, etc. And as we all know, organizations have resources too. There's only so much time in a work day, there's only so many employees, there's only so much money, and so on.
So when a request for a favor, a potential collaboration, or donation inquiry comes across my desk, how do I go about deciding to say yes or no? I want to ensure that every time we say yes to something that the result will be of some value to the organization. That value doesn't have to always be monetary. Value can be found in new connections, community good will, and of course, strengthening the mission, among others.
What is valuable, how valuable it is and if it is valuable enough has to be determined by each organization. In our case, we're one year into a new five-year strategic plan, so much of our discussion on these items revolves around the question of whether or not "this" will help us achieve one of the major goals in the plan. But for other organizations, that evaluative process might be very different–your organization might need cold hard cash to make something worthwhile, or butts in seats. Again, every organization is different, assigns value differently and therefore has different reasons for saying yes or no to the opportunities it's presented with.
The key is having some system in place to evaluate on your value criteria. If you don't have any process in place, every time a question presents itself, it's just overwhelming and stressful and adds to the difficulties in saying no.
I'm a huge proponent of learning to say no, clearly and confidently. I'll admit that I'm actually much better at it with my small business owner hat and non-profit administrator hat on that my personal life hat, but nobody's perfect, right? And it wasn't always easy–it's definitely a learned skill.
As with many things in life, practice is key. I also find that having the evaluative system above as incredibly helpful in providing a reason for saying no. I feel much more confident telling someone, "thank you so much for this opportunity, but the glass center is not in a position to pursue this at this time" rather than just "no," because I've actually done the work to determine that we're not in the place to pursue this right now, or it's not a good fit, it doesn't align with our mission, or whatever other relevant determinations I make.
And since working on saying no can be tough, let's have a little humor to wrap up. Whenever I think about saying no, this scene from 27 Dresses, where James Marsden's character tries to help the people pleasing Jane (Katherine Heigl) to practice saying no.
So, let's all take our inner people pleaser on a vacation for a few weeks and just say no.
Do you have a hard time saying no? Do you have particular strategies to deal with it at work?

Demand for Apple products, coupled with severe constraints on local supply, has created a thriving black market.

Very Professional
As I am an Aussie Expat currently residing in Singapore, I wanted to increase my investment portfolio and purchase another property. I sourced the property via www.realestate.com.au then appointed Cheralyn Neich-Buckley to facilitate my loan as she had been recommended by a colleague. Cheralyn met with me in my IBP office - we went through all the options & I selected a lender and she assisted with the completion of all the paperwork. That was the sum total of my participation in the whole process. Cheralyn liaised direct with the lender and kept me informed at all time. As my property was in Perth - she actually drove to the location and took more photos for me which helped me as I hadn't physically been to the property. This was fantastic. Settlement went through on time no hitches. I would have no hesitation in recommending Cheralyn.

Question: My 10 yr old girl
|MomOf4 - Sat Mar 05, 2005 5:16 am
Hello my name is Amy and I have a few concerns about my 10 yr old girl. My ex got custody of her in Oct. and she has gained 20lbs in less than a year and today she has strep throat, and she has been hospitalized for guenonephritis(kidney problem?) and she always has real rosy cheeks all the time. She lives 4 hrs away from me and I am wondering why she has gained so much weight in such a short period of time.....She gained all of this weight while visiting last summer and going to live in Ohio in October. So she has gained all of this weight in about 7 months. What should I be concerned about with all of the information I have given? Today her father said she is on antibiotics and I understand that.....for the strep..AND also he said she was taking steroids...WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? I have told my ex to keep an eye on her urine samples because she has had protein in her urine in the past and I do know that it is connected to her kidnet problems she has had and that strep can bring about kidney problems. What can you tell me about the weight gain and the rosy cheeks and the steroids? Any advice is welcomed.......I would love your input! Thanks everyone!
|Dr. Heba Ismail - Sun Mar 06, 2005 1:11 pm
Hello Amy,
The weight gain and rosy cheeks are commonly seen in children who've been taking steroids for quite some time, not just a short while. And, I believe, the steroids were given in your daughter's case for treatment of the glomerulonephritis.
However, it is not routine for us to give steroids in cases of simple glomerulonephritis due to strep infection, unless there has been a more serious underlying problem with the kidneys. 'Glomerulonephritis' means an inflammation that occurs in certain parts of the kidneys, and this can result from several causes, resulting in several types of glomerulonephritis. It would help if you could find out which type she has.
You've mentioned she has had proteins in her urine earlier, so were you given an exact diagnosis or explanation for that protein loss?
Try and find out what her doctors think she has and tell us so we can give you more input on that matter.
|MomOf4 - Sun Mar 06, 2005 6:03 pm
THANKS...I just wanted to point out that her rapid weight gain and her rosy cheeks happened before she got steroids..my ex said she is on steroids and antibiotics just on Friday and he won custody of her on Oct 31 2005.......the weight gain was during his 3 months of visiting him before he won custody and she has gained even more weight from OCT 2005 until now. I AM SORRY TO CONFUSE YOU. I live in PA and Cassidy my 10 yr old lives in Toledo Ohio so just this past week my ex told me she got strep and I told him to watch out for her kidneys problems or protein in her urine....ANYWAYS I have cared for Cassidy her whole life so I know her history---Back in summer 2003 she went to the ER cause she was peeing brown red and then they admitted her in PA(where Cassidy lived with me) and they told me she had glomonephritis(not spelled right) and also gave me some streptowhatever word---she was in hospital for 1-2 days and then after that her pediatrcian kept track of her her urine..THEN in Oct 2005 she got strep and I told the ER to check her urine because of what happened in 2003 summer....she had protein in her urine and not long after that I had to turn her over to my ex so she went to live with him in Toledo Ohio. SO NOW just a couple days ago my ex called and said she has strep throat and I told him to keep an eye on her because of her history...She has some Dr she JUST MEET on Friday who put her on steroids and antibiotics....I am just worried what is going to happen to her after this strep because it has happened before and I hope their NEW dr in Ohio got ALL of her records because they don't know anything about her yet. Im sorry for carrying on I just wanted to explain the whole history of Cassidy.......SO THE WEIGHT GAIN AND ROSY CHEEKS ARE MY CONCERN NOW------------Could it be something else like diabetes or something...WHAT ARE THE POSSIBILITIES? I AM NOT LOOKING FOR ONE THING---JUST POSSIBILITIES GOING BY HER SYMPTOMS..........THANK YOU SO MUCH...IM NEW AT THIS FORUM................AMY :lol:
|Dr. Heba Ismail - Tue Mar 08, 2005 8:19 am
Hello Amy,
Well, assuming that she hasn't taken any steroids before, then I'd believe it to be due to the protein loss in her urine. In an attempt to compensate for this protein loss, the body tries to hold on to more water, to keep a balance. This would give you a picture of weight gain.
A number of hormonal troubles could also cause this rapid weight gain, including high endogenous blood steroids, but not diabetes.
I believe she was probably misdiagnosed as post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis from the start, and that her glomerulonephritis is due to other causes.
Keep us informed with any more data you get to know, so we can try & figure out what she has.
|MomOf4 - Tue Mar 08, 2005 9:05 am
Your Information was helpful and I will be speaking to my ex today about her recheck with the Dr. and I will ask him if they said anything else besides that she had strep throat and any details............I AM GOING TO FIND OUT IF HE HAS FOLLOWED UP ON THE CONCERNS I HAVE ABOUT CASSIDY WITH THIS NEW DOCTOR AND IF THE DOCTOR EVEN KNOWS HER HISTORY :) Thank you so much............AMY

Virat Kohli joins elite trinity of Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly and Rahul Dravid
In the ongoing series against England, Virat Kohli has scored 593 runs in nine innings at an average of 65.88 with two hundreds and three fifties. He is followed by England's Jos Buttler with 349 runs from eight innings.cricket Updated: Sep 09, 2018 14:06 IST
Run-machine Virat Kohli has added another feather to his cap. During his knock of 49 on the second day of the fifth Test against England at the Oval, he became only the fourth Indian to score 18,000 runs in international cricket. He has now joined the trinity of Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly and Rahul Dravid.
While Tendulkar sits atop the list with 34,357 runs in 664 matches with 100 hundreds and 164 fifties, Dravid is the next Indian with 24,208 runs from 509 games with 48 hundreds and 146 fifties. Sitting third on the list of Indians is former skipper Ganguly with 18,575 runs from 424 matches with 38 hundreds and 107 fifties.
Kohli is now the fourth Indian on the list with 18,028 runs in just his 343rd game. The India skipper has hit 58 hundreds and 85 fifties. In the ongoing series against England, Kohli has scored 593 runs in nine innings at an average of 65.88 with two hundreds and three fifties. He is followed by England's Jos Buttler with 349 runs from eight innings.
Kohli has been the only bright spot in India's batting display in the ongoing series and even blamed himself for getting out after scoring fifties in the second innings of the first and fourth Test. "The second innings at Birmingham, I think about that and the first innings at Southampton, I think about that. So that when I am in the same position next time, I don't let the team down. I want to be able to take the team across the line," Kohli had told Michael Holding in a chat.
Kohli's statement impressed former India skipper Ganguly and he said: "Big players like him take responsibility on themselves and they will never come up with excuses. Kohli's attitude towards the game is and has always been different from others. There is no doubt that Kohli is a champion batsman, but as a team where he takes them is what will be something worth seeing. The way Kohli speaks shows self-introspection is there. He needs good guidance and has to have people around who will tell him that there are areas that need to be looked into."

Watch The Sunset/
I'll admit, once in a while, I take the struggle bus. It's hard to stay consistent, plan, prep, implement, exercise, tend to others, AND stick with the plan to lose weight.
As you can tell, another two weeks have flown by since I last posted, and I've MAYBE walked twice, but I've watched a dozen sunsets and about as many sunrises.
One morning, during our Palm Village Camp (guests at the trailer), I sat with my 1-year old grandaughter. She had awakened waaaaay to early, so when I got up, her mom tag teamed me and I was happy to watch the sunrise with this special little one.
For one fleeting moment, I held this girl, and wondered how I could have so much love for someone I didn't even know 14 months ago. I will never forget the feel of her hand in mine and then her angst to get off my lap and get the day started. Just one tiny moment in time, but a huge reminder to live life to the full, each and every moment.
Grandpa and I have some pretty big projects and commitments coming down the pike, (of course, I'll keep you posted) so I scoured the archives for this sunset photo.
We only have so much time! Soon "Earth Days", as we know them now, will be no more. I'd encourage you to set aside some sunset watching time.
- Recalibrate mind, body, and soul
- Work hard, and add some fun
- Forgive and try to forget
- Think before you speak
- Put the phone down
- Watch the sunset
- Be thankful
- Pray

A garden is viewed as a nice place to be when it is time to just relax. Many people even find it relaxing to work in the soil, growing flowers for the home and things for the dinner table. Others simply find it nice to sit with friends on the wooden garden furniture San Antonio TX companies offer for sale.
There are many such pieces of furniture and the selection can become overwhelming if not planned out. The basic pieces will be things such as benches. These are often made from a hard wood, although many are created from some of the softer ones as well. They can be long or short, depending on your needs and budget.
The many types of benches almost all have the same type of feature that makes them able to handle the weather. This is important as anything placed outside, for any length of time, must be able to take whatever weather is thrown at it. These benches are made with slatted seats and with the same slats on the back. The wind and rain will simply blow through both.
Many of these types of benches can be very costly. Some of them are quite ornate and some of them are simply a place to sit. Others have cup holders so that your guests hands can be free to express themselves as a large number of guests have a desire to do. Many of hem are also designed to slide up to the picnic table so they can relax while eating at the same time.
The many tables that are available are also things to look into. Relaxation comes in many forms and having a table to conduct hobbies, have a snack or just to discuss things with another person is important for this. The many colors or tones of the wood can make your outside area stylish and graceful as well.
Chairs, made from some beautiful wood and polished to a gloss, complete with a cushion, is one of the pure joys of being outside. Many of these will have wheels to move them about and others will set on sliders for moving around on the grass or dirt. Having a few of these chairs, available for guest, will make your garden a welcoming place for invited friends and family.
Complete living area sets of furniture are available. There will be couches, chairs, coffee and end tables and anything else you normally find in your living room set up for your inspection in many garden stores. You can set up an area that resembles your dining room if so desired. Outdoor kitchens are becoming more and more a reality in many areas and this type of furniture only makes sense.
Making a quick search engine inquiry will help you see images that will help get your imagination going. There will be locations, locally, that will assist in finding all of the things you need to make your back or front yard the place to be. Since everything in Texas is bigger, this is the time to do just that with your garden.

Florida legalized medical marijuana in 2016, but has only recently started issuing ID cards allowing residents to purchase medical marijuana. A ban on smokable marijuana remains in effect.
Two separate groups, Regulate Florida and Floridians for Freedom, are working to legalize the drug for all Floridians. The groups approach legalization from two slightly different angles. Regulate Florida wants marijuana to be treated like alcohol, so it would be legal for those over 21 to use, grow and sell marijuana. Floridians for Freedom is pushing for roughly the same thing—use, cultivation and possession for those over 21—but it also wants legalization to become a part of the Florida Constitution. The group argues this could create stronger protections that may prevent federal interference.
Federal interference is part of the problem for many states that have legalized marijuana. Under federal law, marijuana is still an illegal substance.
Federal policy changes
Attorney General Jeff Sessions recently rescinded some of the Obama era freedoms relating to marijuana. According to Vox, Sessions changed policy to allow federal prosecutors to pursue prosecution against legal marijuana businesses to thwart what he refers to as the drug crisis. That could lead to federal agents raiding legal marijuana businesses.
Bank restrictions and income tax issues
Even without these changes in federal policy, businesses selling marijuana face federal restrictions. Many must operate as cash-only businesses because banks do not want to handle money that breaks federal law. For the businesses, this means owners often cannot open bank accounts to deposit money from sales. For customers, this often means you cannot use credit cards to pay for purchases. Federal regulations also limit marijuana businesses' ability to file for certain deductions on income taxes, so income tax rates can soar as high as 90 percent.
Transporting marijuana and use on federal property
For states where marijuana is legal, the transportation of marijuana from a legal state to other states is prohibited. Federal law also prevents the use of marijuana on federal land, which includes national parks, ski slopes and military bases.
Adding an amendment that legalizes marijuana to the Florida Constitution could possibly prevent some of these federal issues. However, if Attorney General Sessions remains in office, he may continue to push for increased interference in the states' regulation of marijuana. That would mean more complications for residents and legal marijuana businesses.

Orthodox traditions stay true during Easter
Easter Sunday in America is often associated with the Easter bunny, decorating eggs, Sunday mass, and being around family, but for a close-nit community of Coptic Orthodox Christians there are many more traditions to be celebrated that go beyond the American norm. Fr. Bishoy Kamel of the St. Marina Coptic Orthodox Church of Irvine has been with the church since it's creation in 2000, and conducted this year's Easter mass. The ceremony began on the eve of Easter at 8 pm and concluded early Easter morning at 1 am. The air was filled with "Boukour", the Arabic word for incense, which is used to bless the surrounding area of the church, as members of the congregation gathered to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus. The house of worship reverberated with the chanting of the worshippers, including the two priests who conducted the ceremony. Unlike a traditional service, the Easter performance takes place in a dark church, lit only by candlelight as the congregation chants "Christ has risen". The darkness is then broken with the sounding of a cymbal and drum as the lights are thrown on, temporarily providing the audience with a moment of blinding illumination.

Shootings, the declining state of the school system and controversies in town government dominated the town�s news in 2007.
The slayings of Ezekiel Cuthbert, shot outside a North Main Street gas station, and John Lubin, shot at a holiday house party on Bayberry Lane, within a week of each other in early summer shocked the community. Five people, four from Randolph, have been charged in the two killings.
In October, Stephan Cowans, who spent 61/2 years in prison after being wrongfully convicted of shooting a Boston police officer, was shot to death in his home.
Former Army Sgt. James Jacobs of Randolph, a survivor of two years in Iraq, died in a hail of gunfire on a Dorchester street in March. No arrests have been made in the latter two cases.
The Randolph schools endured another rocky year. Despite its first budget hike in three years, the school committee was forced to eliminate teaching jobs, close the Devine Early Learning Center, cut sports and extracurricular activities and discontinue school bus transportation.
The state Board of Education in November designated the school system as underperforming and is considering a takeover. The New England Association of Schools and Colleges placed the accreditation of Randolph High School on probation. Both based the actions on programs cut for budget reasons.
Voters at the March town election rejected a $4.16 million property tax increase that would have provided an additional $3 million for the schools. The margin of 418 votes was the closest of three attempts to override the property tax limits of Proposition 21/2 over the past four years. Another override attempt is expected in 2008.
The school system did add an all-day kindergarten program for some students, funded by a state grant and tuition.
Stepbrothers Emmanuel Labranche, 17, and Valensky Duguaran died when a fast-moving fire swept through their Union Street home early in the morning of May 17. Arson is suspected, and the investigation has been turned over to the district attorney�s office.
The reactions of Fire Chief Charles Foley at the scene of the fire got him in trouble with selectmen, who suspended him for three weeks for criticizing fire department staffing at the scene of the fire and allegedly shoving a selectman.
Disciplinary actions by selectmen also led to the firing of longtime youth coordinator Paul Maloof and police officer Fabiano Estrela.
Maureen Kenney won a selectman�s seat in March. But she gave up her school committee seat in November, after it was revealed that she made anti-Semitic remarks toward School Superintendent Richard Silverman during a closed negotiating session. A drive to recall Kenney from the board of selectmen continues.
Tamara Pitts defeated longtime member Ron DiGuilio to win a seat on the school committee in the March town election.
In July, Army Cpl. Robert Imrie was buried with military honors at Arlington National Cemetery more than a half-century after his death in the Korean War. Imrie received the Distinguished Service Cross, the Silver Star and the Bronze Star. He died in 1950 after wiping out a machine gun nest to protect his comrades. His remains were recovered in North Korea several years ago and were recently identified.
In August, selectmen shook up town government, reassigning Executive Secretary Michael Carroll to a new job of finance director. Carroll resigned a month later. Town Clerk Brian Howard agreed to assist the selectmen at least through the end of the year.
A group of citizens has filed suit against the changes.
Nemesio Serrano, 10, died in July when his bicycle collided with an SUV on Allen Street, not far from his home.
The year was not without its successes. The current town budget boosted funding for the Turner Free Library by $165,000, allowing it to be open on Mondays and four evenings a week. Supporters successfully campaigned for the increase after the library lost its state accreditation.

I promise that this is my very last post about my New York trip (honestly) it might just stem some film related posts though, but don't worry I still have a few film/tv related photos to share. Some of them are from knowledge gained on the On Location Central Park and/or Bus Tour.
War Paint Review
War Paint CD Release
Groundhog Day the Musical Review
Hello, Dolly! Review
Stage Door: David Hyde Pierce
Ellen's Stardust Diner
Along with seeing the shows and doing the tours, I could not resist another visit to my favourite building of all the Empire State Building, come on An Affair to Remember is one of my all time favourite films. So this would make it the third time I had been to the top of it, the queues were huge though as it was such a lovely day. You can pre-book these things which works out slightly cheaper and you get less queues but it wasn't something I was sure we were going to end up doing.
I thought I would also include the photos taken going up to the top and the amazing view!
I then managed to get a few different photos of things we learnt about on the TV and Movie tours, so the inspiration for the fountain in Friends is outside the Plaza hotel. They didn't actually use this one though as they thought it was too big, so a smaller replica version was made to film the opening sequence.
Top of the Rock was a fantastic experience I had never done this one before, but was certainly a must as our hotel The Jewel was right over the road from it. Again you can pre-book a date but I was actually pleased we didn't do that considering the Friday it was extremely heavy rain all day you wouldn't have been able to see anything at all from the top. It is well worth the effort and they give you a 15 minute time slot to head up which means the queues are too big and it doesn't take a lot of time to visit the different levels. Amazing views towards Central Park as well as seeing the Empire State Building, yes you may have noticed my love for that!
Amazing on the outside (and inside) we had a little walk around inside and it really is an incredible building. Also seen in Spider-Man 2 and you know where Big had left Carrie when they are supposed to be getting married, and that scene in the street is right next to this building! Well worth a visit if you are in NYC as it is free to go in, they have some fantastic different covers on classic literature as well if you love your books!
You really do a lot of walking in New York and eat some great food, which actually costs quite a lot as they expect you to tip between 18-22% which is often added on without even asking you, but you feel you really do have to just leave that much money. We only had two meals per day though as breakfast really does fill you right up, I was defeated many times by the huge portion sizes that the US offers, until next time New York!

Saag Paneer
Yak & Yeti
7803 Ralston Rd, Arvada, CO 80002
(303) 431-9000
To properly tell you about how good the Saag Paneer is at Yak & Yeti, I must digress for a moment and go back almost 30 years to my college days at NYC's Fashion Institute of Technology. There I was, a wide-eyed freshman, excited to experience & taste all that the big city had to offer. Living next door to me in my dorm were two extremely nice (and very cute as well) roommates from India—and no, this is not THAT kind of story. As I got to know them, they would invite me over for home-cooked meals made from recipes that had been lovingly passed down from their mothers. I ate a wide variety of meals with exotic flavors I had never tasted before—it was absolutely awful! To be fair, some were "palatable," but often times I could barely stomach how bad the food was. Long story short, I never ate Indian food again!
Fast forward many years, I was chatting with some friends in 2013 about a craft beer + culinary pairing event called BrüFrou I had started developing with my partner and they mentioned an eatery/brewery called Yak & Yeti in Arvada, a suburb of northwest of Denver. Of course I fervently (and ignorantly) said, "Yuck, I hate Indian food," but decided to tag along anyways when a bunch of them trekked over there one evening. They ordered a plethora of dishes: Mixed Vegetable Pakora & Samosa, Tandoori Chicken, Garlic Cheese Naan, Lamb Makhani—and of course the Saag Paneer, all paired with a outrageously delicious Chai Milk Stout. I tried a little taste here, and a little bite there. My taste buds were exploding, the synapses in my mind were firing like it was the 4th of July!
I sat there in front of this Indian banquet of glory, and never felt so stupid in my life! Had I really let 30 years of my life go by and shunned these culinary gifts from this ancient part of the world? I came to realize, as I sat there stuffing my face with these heavenly bites, it wasn't that I didn't like Indian food, it was that my old dorm neighbors were simply horrible cooks. So yeah, while I now feel a little silly, I do look back and appreciate their effort & kindness. Food is truly a gift.
And now that my digression is over, I can tell you unequivocally that the Saag Paneer is divine. Bright, lively fresh spinach is the key to this dish, unlike many other unmatched, unworthy saags I've since tried. And just the the right amount of spices liven up the dish (I recommend ordering "medium" as a good place to start). The paneer (cheese) is the perfect firm texture to complement the creaminess of the saag. Also try the Chana Saag if you like chick peas as an alternative to the paneer.
Lastly, don't miss the Tandoori Chicken Wings—yeah, I said chicken wings, and this is coming from a die-hard New Yorker whose been to the original Anchor Bar in Buffalo. Their tandoor, which I believe operates at a temperature slightly cooler then the sun, crisps the tandoori spices for a perfect crust on the outside of the wings, while the inside meat next to the bones remains tender & moist. For your next Super Bowl party, order these delicacies to-go and serve them up to your friends for a BIG wow-factor, Go Broncos!
I don't make a lot of promises in this world, but since my first experience at Yak & Yeti, I have discovered many dishes that have delighted my senses & satisfied my soul—and I promise that you will love this place too. And if you do go there, say "Hi" to Kal Pant, the ever-present GM, and the amazing photographer who shot these beautiful images.

So, I gave my notice after 5 years combined at my current firm (I left for 9 months to an insurer and was invited back in a vastly expanded role). I'll miss the prestige of this role and the people here, but it is time for a change.
The firm I work for currently is over 100 years old. We've historically had some insane claims. The Titanic, Hindenburg and the 9/11 attacks on the Twin Towers were all files handled by my company to name a few.
As a treat, here is the Lloyds of London slip showing the underwriters & their amounts for the Titanic. Most people don't understand, but Lloyds is not an insurance company, it is a market that facilitates private investors to insure risks as an investment.
For a premium of £7,500 per ship, the ship was insured for 12 months with a limit of £1million. 12 insurers and over 50 investing syndicates participated in the risk as you can see below. Our letterhead (at the time) is at the top. Needless to say, it was not a great investment.
While the new job is a step down in prestige, it is a step up in experience, work/life balance and pay. I look forward to it.
I am pretty sold on a Wrangler. I looked at sedans, hatches and even wagons before deciding what I needed was as close to the opposite of a Fiesta ST as I could get. Bad handling, even worse build quality than a Mexican built subcompact
It won't be for a little while or a few months, but I likely will purchase a Wrangler Sport S (either lightly used or new) with a 6 speed manual and soft top.
Any Jeep that I buy will need a new shift & transfer case knobs right away, an Oppo sticker and I think I will have a Sergio Marchionne sticker commissioned. I owe him one. I have a few mods planned, nothing crazy.

There is more to home improvement than a new floor or a paint job. You must plan, research and execute if you want to enhance the beauty of your home. To increase your home improvement prowess read these tips. This will make your home look better, make your significant other proud and save you money.
Take advantage of the carpet installation specials which major home improvement chains offer. Often, the store will provide installation very cheaply, in order to encourage buyers. This is a good time to replace your home's carpet, because usually, the labor costs often exceed the price of the carpet itself.
Keep your air conditioning filter as clean as possible. A dirty AC filter causes your air conditioner to work inefficiently and consume more energy. The unit will also run for a no data longer period of time. You need to change the filter once a month.
It may be necessary for you to give a porch a fresh coat of paint. If so, lean on a quality exterior paint. Make certain to use paint of an identical base to the prior paint used. Oil based paint is right for trim but not right for a deck because it is too slick in wet conditions.
A thing to consider before stating a home project is the style and character of your neighborhood. If your home is the only Victorian in an neighborhood of saltbox cottages, it will look out of place. If your exterior home remodel blends well with other homes on your street, you have a much better chance of finding a buyer quickly when you are ready to move.
You should dust your entire home once a week. Dust can accumulate rapidly within just a few days, causing problems for allergy sufferers. Regular cleaning eradicates dust, but also keeps your home free from ants, fleas and other pests.
Seek the help of family and friends before beginning a project. If you wait to ask for help when you have already begun the project, it might be to late for people to commit. Without this help, it may be difficult to finish up in the time you desire.
One way to get bugs not to come into your home is by sealing any openings or cracks in your house. Caulk the baseboards, areas around windows and any other areas that require it. Once the caulk is dry, air will be sealed in, and bugs will be sealed out.
You don't have to replace your entire lock, you can swap out the cylinder instead. The locking action is performed by the cylinder. Changing out the cylinder of a lock is enough to preserve your security if you've lost the keys to the door. Replace the whole lock set if you are looking to change the appearance of your door.
You can enjoy the process of doing home improvements. If you are a newbie, you should go slow and build your skill. As you grow your skills, you can begin accomplishing home improvement projects that will amaze those around you!

Nevertheless, the typical PS4 remains a superb gaming console.

Active, Hunting Dogs May Need to Eat More Antioxidants
Dogs that exercise a lot, like hunting dogs, may need to ingest more antioxidants than dogs that are less active finds a new study.
According to the University of Illinois study, the vitamin E and taurine status of athletic dogs are affected by extensive amounts of exercise and extremely active dogs may benefit from supplements of vitamin E and taurine in their diets.
EurekAlert! reports researchers analyzed a group of American Foxhounds in Alabama during a hunting season. Dogs went out two to three times per week for 2 to 5 hours at a time. The dogs who didn't have enough vitamin E and taurine in their diets experienced oxidative stress.

I have had a couple of readings with Jim. I would just like to say how fantastic he is. He is quick and to the point. He was able to home in on the person in question right away. He doesn't try to counsel you or waste time with general chat. I am yet to find out if what he predicted will come true. I only wish we had more time to talk.

Sony officially announced their PSP successor, code-named Next Generation Portable (NGP). Details here. As you can see, its main technical features of note are a high resolution 5" inch OLED touch screen on the front, a multi-touch pad on the back, two analog sticks, and two cameras. It also has six-axis motion sensing system similar to the PS3's controller and a three-axis electronic compass. Typical for Sony, it's another "kitchen sink" handheld, with the only notable omission being 3D, a la the Nintendo 3DS. Unlike the 3DS - and even though I'm a long-time owner of the original PSP - I'm finding little to be excited about with Sony's new handheld. The PSP failed - relatively speaking, of course - because it did nothing to distinguish itself as a portable. Sony's strategy was to offer a portable console, which many people have no interest in. There appears to be a similar strategy with the NGP. The PSP was somewhere in-between the PS1 and PS2 in terms of power, the NGP is somewhere in-between a PS2 and PS3 in terms of power. If you look at the software list from the link, it's the same types of titles you get on the PS3. While there will be the usual augmented reality and sharing features (again, just like the Nintendo 3DS), the idea of a dedicated portable like this in today's world of smartphones and tablets seems a bit counter-intuitive, and it doesn't have the 3D angle Nintendo's 3DS features. As such, I'm skeptical of the NGP's success.
Rather further under the radar is the announcement of the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play, an Android phone that appears to offer PSP-like gaming and some ability to run the same type of software (albeit of the lowest common denominator variety, potentially taking some of the bloom off of owning the superior gaming platform if developers target both). This strategy makes somewhat more sense in that consumer energy is really behind smartphones these days, but to my mind Sony should have done the Xperia Play AND made the PSP2 a 7" Honeycomb tablet with the full complement of gaming controls and beefed up hardware. This way they could also sub-license to Android and Honeycomb vendors "PSP-powered" gaming technology. That to me would have made a far greater impact. As it is, I think Sony is not going to make much of a dent with the Xperia Play because Android-powered smartphones (technology-wise) are a fast moving target (and phones tend to get replaced every two years anyway), and the NGP - no matter how inherently cool - is not a distinctive enough technology to pull enough people away from the 3DS and their existing (or future) smartphones and tablets, the latter two of which already make formidable modern day gaming platforms. Sorry, Sony.

[singlepic id=299 w=320 h=240 float=center] It seems to me that there's this game we play around the holidays. We somehow feel obligated to replay the old tapes of the past, gathering together in the same ways, repeating the same "traditions", whether or not they still work for us.
The result? A clenching of the jaw, a tensing of our shoulders, a knotted up feeling in our stomach, as we enter this "joyous" holiday season. Some of us might even roll our eyes without knowing it when we say the word "family".
Since all the messages around us are shouting, "Peace! Joy! Love! Thankfulness! Giving!" we feel downright guilty about our deepest truth: we just don't want to do the holidays the same way anymore.
That guilt gnaws at our energy for a good two months. We conduct our surface actions under the weight of the thought, "This is what I have to do." So we suck it up. We buy our plane tickets, or get in our cars, battling the crowds of people who all seem to be happily going to visit family, but very well could be gnawing away inside too.
Or we buy the new sparkly red dress, the high heels, the purse, the whole deal. We show up at the party with all the people we don't even like. We do it anyway. Why? Not exactly by choice, but because we think "we have to".
Or else what?
When was the last time you questioned your own holiday patterns of action and so-called "traditions"?
When was the last time you gave yourself permission to even ask the question, "What do I want to do for the holidays?"
Oh I'm fully aware that there are a group of you who are squirming or rolling your eyes or cursing me out right now as a heretic, a threat to the very fabric of upper middle class suburban culture. I hear you. I grew up surrounded by traditions of a very ancient and foreign culture, and I was not-so-subtly shaped into believing that these needed to be the foundation of my life forever. Or else.
The point isn't whether or not the traditions have any value. The point is, I never considered any other options, purely out of fear. I never even dared ask, "Or else what?"
Until recently. Until I started to look directly in the face of everything I had been avoiding, stepping around, exhausting myself while trying to "do the right thing" all the time.
"You do not have to be good./You do not have to walk on your knees for a hundred miles through the desert, repenting." These words from Mary Oliver's poem Wild Geese might just capture the feeling of dragging yourself through yet another holiday season of obligations. Yeah, right. Easy for her to say. She's a poet.
But can't we all relate to the oppressive feeling of trying to "be good"? Trying to live up to some imaginary ideal of what it means to be a good daughter, a good wife, a good sister-in-law, a good mother?
I know what it's like to feel the threat of literal death as a consequence of disobeying "the rules" of whatever your particular religion is. My religion was family. No one broke the sacred ranks of family. Or else.
Or else what?
Since I never asked, I never found out. Until I actually found the courage to take little steps outward. So my steps weren't that little. I "squandered" an education, for example, by graduating from medical school without a job. Wasting money, wasting time, wasting an education - all of those thoughts, and the accompanying guilt, I confronted many times before and since that decision. And yet, not only have I survived, but I have thrived since that decision. I have, with each decision since then, gotten one step deeper into my own life, closer to my own true self's potential for creativity and service to the world.
Now, after three different careers and many lessons from great teachers, I am less attached to the "outer evidence" of thriving that I used to think were more important than my own feelings. Things like having lots of good shoes, wearing stiff clothes that make me look "important" but are totally confining to my body, and getting the approval of people who have certain credentials and wear those same kinds of clothes.
It took me until I was 33 years old before I was finally able to say calmly, "I will not be travelling anywhere for Thanksgiving this year, and no, I do not have plans to eat a traditional turkey dinner with anyone else." I spent it instead at the beach with a dear friend, sipping hot chocolate and ordering French fries while snuggled in our own corner of a hotel lobby, with not a care in the world nor a restriction on any of our topics of conversation.
It was the most delicious Thanksgiving in recent memory.
I imagined all of my family members, eating off the same dishes, going through the same motions, smiling through the same awkward moments, denying themselves their own true desires, halfway across the country. And I realized that I have now done something they have never done in their lives – I've spent Thanksgiving my own way.
I've found my own answer to the question, "Or else what?". It has come to me gradually, and gently, over time. I still notice the old guilt and the old questions coming up, but I know better now. I've experienced something more nourishing than any food I've ever tasted. It's the taste of joy. And the taste of real gratitude, not the obligatory kind.
And isn't that the essense of the holidays we've been trying to create anyway?

Evan & I are now "Friends"
February 19, 2009
…on Facebook that is. He has wanted a Facebook account for some time now, so that he can play Scrabble on line. He pleaded his case to me the other night, and we discussed it with his father yesterday. D'Arcy is fairly anti-facebook, but has recently re-activated his account.
Evan was given permission to open his account with the following conditions:
- He had to befriend both of us and allow us unlimited access to his account.
- We have his security settings set as high as we can (I think)!
- He has shared his password with us.
- He has no identifying information on his account.
- He is only allowed to be-friend people with approval from us.
- He is only allowed to check his account from home.
- When he be-friended his uncle & some older cousins, he asked to make sure (as per his parents' instructions) that he had no access to any "adult" content.
So he & D'Arcy & I are now in a three-way game of Scrabble and he has challenged Uncle Jon to a game as well. He has entered his first "Status Update" which reads: "Evan is hoping for a snow day tomorrow so he can sleep in."
I hope he is always our "friend" and willing to communicate with us in this way!

I think it's really cool that he's on FB … and cool about the way you guys went about it. Great rules — they seem to give him the access he wants and the security you need. I bet it will be fun to see this side of your son!

From the senior vice provost: Intersession, spring syllabi statements reminder
Dear deans, department heads, faculty and graduate teaching assistants:
Before we wind down the fall term, please take a moment to review the information about course syllabi. Remember to include the mandatory statements in your intersession and spring course syllabi, and please consider including suggested optional statements, if they apply to your course. The website also includes a link to a syllabi template for online courses.
For those faculty who did not teach in fall 2016, please note we included additional language — highlighted text on the website — in the statement on copyright notification, which is in the section on optional syllabi statements, as well as additional information you may wish to provide to your students regarding actions that constitute violation of the Student Code of Conduct. There have been no changes to any of the other syllabi statements — mandatory or optional — since fall 2016.
To assist in your planning, please make sure your exam schedule is up-to-date by reviewing the spring 2017 exam schedule.
All faculty, instructors and graduate teaching assistants should refer to section F70-73 of the University Handbook to make sure they are in compliance with the final exam policy.
Finally, the All-University Open House is scheduled for Saturday, April 1, 2017. As usual, classes will be canceled starting at 2:30 p.m. Friday, March 31, 2017. If instances arise where rescheduling in specialized classrooms or laboratory environments is not feasible, or canceling sections of a multisection course would result in the loss of an entire class day, then instructor prerogative will determine whether classes will be canceled. In these cases, faculty members choosing to hold classes at or after 2:30 p.m. must notify Room Scheduling at 785-532-1712 at the start of the spring semester to ensure that their classrooms are available. This determination should be clearly noted on the course syllabus handed out at the beginning of the semester so that students are aware of this far in advance of Open House.
Please contact our office at 785-532-6224 or email@example.com, if you have any questions.
Have a joyful holiday season and a happy new year.
Best regards,
Ruth A. Dyer
Senior Vice Provost for Academic Affairs

How To Find The Best Tech Employees For Your Startup
Choosing the right employee for your business is important regardless of the type of company you own. However, when you're a startup business hiring the right employees can either make or break your chance of success. If you're new to the business world, odds are you believe that the credentials a person has are all it takes to find a good employee. That isn't necessarily the case even when hiring for the position of a computer technician. Here are some of the most important characteristics and credentials to look for in a potential candidate: Who are they? It's essential to look for an employee that's going to be great for the technical aspects of your company. But you also have to look for the characteristics that would make them great to work with. The average employee usually stays with a company for a minimum of one to two years. It would be a bad idea to pick someone who has great credentials, but is off-putting in person. Some of the best characteristics to look for to find an employee who is both professional and productive include:
- Resourcefulness
- Passion
- Vision
- Action-taking
- Being a team player
- Certifications
- Knowledge in the selected area
- Degrees in the selected area
