MIAMI - A fourth gravitational wave has been detected - this time with help from Italy-based equipment - after two black holes collided, sending ripples through the fabric of space and time, researchers said.
Gravitational waves were predicted by Albert Einstein a century ago as part of his theory of general relativity, but the first hard evidence of their existence came only in 2015, when two US detectors found the first such signal.
The latest space-time ripples were detected on August 14 at 10:30 GMT when two giant black holes with masses about 31 and 25 times the mass of the Sun merged about 1.8 billion light-years away. "The newly produced spinning black hole has about 53 times the mass of our Sun," said a statement from the international scientists at Virgo detector, located at the European Gravitational Observatory (EGO) in Cascina, near Pisa, Italy. "While this new event is of astrophysical relevance, its detection comes with an additional asset: this is the first significant gravitational wave signal recorded by the Virgo detector."
The Virgo detector - an underground L-shaped instrument that tracks gravitational waves using the physics of laser light and space - recently underwent an upgrade, and while still less sensitive than its US counterparts, it was able to confirm the same signal.
Known as interferometers, these high-tech underground stations do not rely on light in the sky like a telescope does, but instead sense vibrations in space and can pick up the "chirp" created by a gravitational wave.
"It is wonderful to see a first gravitational-wave signal in our brand new Advanced Virgo detector only two weeks after it officially started taking data," said Virgo spokesman Jo van den Brand of Nikhef and Vrije Universiteit (VU) University Amsterdam. The space-time ripple was picked up by all three detectors at nearly the same time.
Previously, gravitational waves have been found using two US-based detectors, which are the most sophisticated in the world - known as the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) detectors in Livingston, Louisiana, and Hanford, Washington.

We keep on finding unexploded bombs in London, going back to the blitz time of World War II. This time, I managed to catch some photo's related to the incident.
This is a photo of an underground traffic notification board which shows how the hammersmith and city line is part suspended. The board says", "No service between Whitechapel and Plaistow due to a request of the police whilst investigating an unexploded WW2 bomb at Bromley by Bow. MINOR DELAYS to the rest of the line".
Here's the notification for the circle line.
I work in one of the banks in Canary Wharf. I was on the 22nd floor at about 6PM when a very large thump went off shaking the building. On moving to the side, I could see a pall of smoke and dust rising, which I presume was the controlled explosion. Some more details here.

Mind the Gap report highlights NDIS inconsistencies
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is failing most people with severe mental illness, according to Endeavour Mental Health Recovery Clubhouse.
The clubhouse's Advisory Committee chair Bob Boss-Walker said mental health consumers were applying for the NDIS but being rejected because they didn't meet the criteria.
"The problem that creates for mental health consumers is they are expecting to get a plan, and so they are held in limbo sometimes for six months, and then it comes back and they don't get anything or they get such a minimal amount," he said.
"I've spoken to parents and carers of mental health consumers who are just so shattered by finding out that the NDIS is not turning out to be what it was promoted as being.
"They have their expectations raised that their son or daughter would have a secure future in terms of mental health funding support and now a dark cloud has come over that."
A Mind the Gap report identifies NDIS gaps for people living with mental illness and proposes solutions.
The report said NDIS participation of people with a primary psychosocial disability was low and indicated multiple difficulties in the scheme's implementation.
National Disability Insurance Agency, whose role it is to implement the scheme, takes issue with many statements in the report.
Report author Associate Professor Jennifer Smith-Merry said while the NDIS was an exciting reform for people with disability, its current structure did not fit easily with the lived experience of people with psychosocial disability.
The report, compiled by the University of Sydney and Community Mental Health Australia, was based on the experiences of 58 expert stakeholders.
The report notes the government's own figures of 690,000 Australians are living with severe mental illness.
"What is significantly worrying is that at full roll-out, the scheme is only designed to meet the needs of 64,000 people with severe mental illness, yet existing services are being closed and funding moved into the NDIS," Professor Smith-Merry said.
Endeavour Mental Health Recovery Clubhouse director Rob Moorehead spoke about the implications of the NDIS criteria.
He said people with episodic psychosocial mental illness could be well for so long and be so unwell for so long.
"Mental illness and the recovery journey can be like a game of snakes and ladders," Mr Moorehead said.
A NDIA spokesperson said a person with a psychosocial disability, to access the NDIS, needs to have a permanent or likely-to-be permanent disability as a result of their mental health condition.
The condition must have a significant impact on their day-to-day life and the person's ability to participate in the community.
A NDIA spokesperson said as reported in the most recent NDIS quarterly report – as at December 31, 2017 – psychosocial disability was the third largest disability group represented in the scheme.
The spokesperson said the NDIS did not, and was never intended to, replace other government support systems like the mental health system or community-based support or treatment for people living with mental health conditions.
Access to the NDIS is based on functional impairment, not diagnosis.
Mr Boss-Walker said from their experience at Endeavour, the way the NDIS plans were being assessed was inconsistent and reflected a workforce that did not understand the complexities of mental illness.
"The potential implication is very few people with mental illness will be funded under the NDIS and therefore they will not have the ability to purchase the services they want from community agencies, like Endeavour, under the NDIS," he said.
Mind the Gap report said stakeholders spoke about the high numbers of people being assessed as ineligible and the seemingly ad hoc, inconsistent and ill-informed nature of the NDIA assessment.
The NDIA spokesperson said a National Access Team assessed access requests in accordance with the agreed transition schedules and the eligibility requirements.
The spokesperson said in October 2017, the NDIS released the details of its new pathway, designed to significantly improve the experience people and organisations have with the NDIS.

ROTHENBURGER – Vision: sometimes we get it right, sometimes we don't
ONE OF THE TOUGHEST QUESTIONS we ask our politicians is, "What is your vision for Kamloops?"
More often than not, the response has something to do with a clean, safe city with good amenities and well-paying jobs. When was the last time a politician said, "I really think we need more street crime, litter and graffiti, and we should bring in more minimum-wage employment and close down some parks"?
The real test of vision, though, comes in the details.
Elected leaders and residents alike are asked from time to time to put their money where their vision is. Sometimes they pass the test, sometimes they fail. Sometimes, too, vision is as much about saying no to something as saying yes.
The proposed farmer's market building at the entrance to Riverside Park is one such vision that divides people. An informal survey was released this week on what people think about it and I'll get to that in a minute.
Mel Rothenburger is a former mayor of Kamloops, former school board chair, former editor of The Kamloops Daily News, and a current director on the Thompson-Nicola Regional District board. He was awarded the Jack Webster Foundation's lifetime achievement award in 2011. His editorials are published Monday through Thursdays, and Saturdays on CFJC Today, CFJC Midday and CFJC Evening News.

As always, I have to thank my fantastic beta nightrider101 who made this story a lot better than I could have done on my own. The remaining mistakes are my own and most likely to be found in sequences I added after she had done her magic. Also, there are points where I simply ignored her advice, but that doesn't happen often because I know she knows better than me!
And of course, a lot of thanks goes to quickreaver, my more-than-awesome artist. When I saw she had picked my story I spend half an hour flailing. And I was even more happy after getting in contact with her and finding out what a wonderful person she is. Not only did she do a lot more than the challenge demanded, she also gave me precious advice for my own art. And all that aside: just look at the pictures she created! Aren't they among the best pieces of art you have ever seen?
Last but not least I want to thank reapertownusa without whom this big bang wouldn't have come to be.

Hey! In this video I will be discussing what helped me grow my natural hair and length retention. Low manipulation, stretching my hair, low heat, moisturizing, and patience are I think the top keys for my natural hair growth and natural hair care. This video also describes what I've been doing with my hair in terms of my natural hair regimen and routine. Hope you enjoy the video!

My natural hair journey started 4 years ago. I have had about two large trims/cuts since I initially became natural in July 2011. My hair ranges from 15.5 inches in the front, 15 inches at the crown and 14.5 inches in the back. I have had a great natural hair journey so far.

Allen McPherson (Letters, 6 July) rightly condemns the disgraceful amount of litter in Scotland. The cost of litter wardens in West Lothian is £500,000 yet the fines collected were only £2,000.
One excuse, and that is all it was, was that the litter wardens went to schools to preach their anti-litter message.
Apologists say that education is the way forward but in the 40-plus years I have been in Linlithgow nothing has changed.
The council refuses to fine children under 16, although it legally can, and the school lunch time shows evidence of this.
Each litter warden costs more than £30,000 a year so it is time that they earned their salaries. They should be patrolling the food outlets over the lunch period, not taking their break away from the action. A vigil outside the pubs at night would yield lots of penalties from discarded cigarette butts but that is too obvious and perhaps too stressful for the wardens.
They should not have 9am to 5pm hours but flexible hours so that other litter menace, the dog owner who does not clear up, is caught in the early morning and late evening.
Until there are meaningful fines and enforcement the £100 million a year cost will escalate.
Clark Cross
Springfield Road
I fully support Allen McPherson's letter about litter, and I agree that a lack of embarrassment plays a very big part in the whole problem.
A few weeks ago I was waiting at a bus stop with my neighbour and her young son, and she just threw her empty juice box on the ground. I was astonished, and not only because there was a bin about three yards away.
So I bent over and addressed her little boy, saying: "Oh dear, it looks like your mummy dropped that juice box by accident. Shall we pick it up and put it in the bin?"
The mother started shouting at me and telling me that she was doing local council workers a favour – that street cleaners would be made unemployed if they didn't have rubbish to clean up.
It is clear that we can no longer rely on all parents to teach children how to behave, because they were obviously never taught by their own parents. Better education and harsher penalties are our only options now.

Talisman - M.o.m. lyrics
M.o.m. by Talisman
I'm alive, I can face another battle
I can fin'lly breathe again
I'm alive, I've diminished all the demons
Now I'm purged from all the sin
I been livin 4 the danger
& I rivaled with the best
Didn't care about the meaning
Never settled up 4 less
All the frustrations that eluded me
I've fin'lly set them free
This time 2morrow I will run away again
This road that I follow Is my only friend
Empty & hollow No longer can pretend
That this time 2morrow I'm out of my own misery
Step aside, I can see past through the anger
& I might as well begin
2 divide, all the rhyme without a reason
& The sham beneath my skin
Do u really know the secret
Am I missing that 1 clue?
Do u really know the answer
Can u see my point of view?
I'm so offended by the bed I've made
Somehow I feel betrayed

Whether you set the route or leave it open-ended, you can discover things along the way.
Constraints produce their own magic. They make you innovate based off what you have to play with. But so too do indefinite destinations.
Out of curiosity blooms everything.
The more we know, the more we want to know. We permit our heuristic temptations to guide the discovery process. The rush to fill ignorance with self-knowledge makes us feel alive.
The world is more like a playground than a camp. It begs us to take more information than we need. But in borrowing its widgets, we have to reciprocate to ensure what we put out or reinvent comes back to enrich nature itself.
The Recommender
If you're an artist, photographer, writer, etc., I highly recommend creating your own blog and publishing something new every day (read my post on how to set up a FREE blog on Wordpress).

Fluid Equal Height 3 Column layout with varying image sizes?
Is there any way at all to create a responsive/fluid layout with 3 equal height columns containing images of different sizes?
I'm trying to create a template that can have variable content piped in, but I have zero control over the size and aspect ratio of the images being plugged in by automation. Creative does NOT want the 3 columns to stack on mobile; instead, the 3 columns and the images need to shrink proportionately. Our current template uses fixed widths/heights, but often has issues on mobile.
Should look something like this (imagine the gray squares are product photos) and maintain the same proportions as it scales down:

- 1% of your yearly household income.
- $95 per person for the year ($47.50 per child under 18).
When you file your federal income tax for 2014 you will have to pay the higher of these two amounts.
If You are Only Covered Part of the Year:
If you do not have coverage for just part of the year, 1/12 of the yearly penalty applies to each month you do not have insurance coverage, but If you are not covered for less than 3 months of a calendar year, you don't have to make a payment.
The fee will grow within the next two years in 2015 the penalty will increase to $325 per adult or 2 percent of your income, and in 2016 it will be the greater of $695 per adult or 2.5 percent of income. The amount you must pay will be capped at the national average cost for a bronze health plan, Which is intended to have the lowest premium of the four new health plans.
If you do not pay the Fee:
If you do not pay your penalty the IRS will hold back the amount of your penalty and take it from future refunds. Although paying the fee is absolutely crucial and important, there are no criminal penalties or liens for failing to pay the fee.
How to Avoid the Penalty Fee:
You can avoid the penalty fee by obtaining minimum essential coverage during enrollment and maintaining it throughout the year, or you can get an exemption. The fee is only owed for each full month you go without coverage. If you have coverage for even just one day in a calendar month, you will not have to pay the fee for that month.

I knew exactly how I wanted my wedding to look. I wasn't positively sure on a style of dress, I was open to options, however I did find one specifically online and believe it or not, it was the very first dress I tried on, and it was THE dress. I ended up choosing it as the dress for our big day! How crazy?!
I walked into the store looking for the one I found online. I knew the instant I put it on it was the dress. I felt like a princess. It fit perfectly. And something inside me just said that this is it. This is the one I will meet my husband at the end of the aisle in.
My favorite thing about wedding dress shopping was simply the experience. I had dreamt of that day since I was a little girl. Trying on dresses, feeling like a princess for a day, knowing that I was picking the dress of my dreams for one of the biggest days of my life. And even though I didn't have all my girls with me that day, I had my dad and brother there along with a couple of my girls, and we were sending pictures like crazy to the couple girls that couldn't be with us. So many tears were shed, so much happiness and laughter was shared, everything about that day was perfect.
I didn't go to any contenders. Shopping at Camille's was my first and only choice. JoAnne is like family, a mom I didn't have, so sharing the experience of finding my dress with her, as well as supporting her baby was the least I could do. Camille's makes you feel like family, whether you are not, by the end of your visit, you become family there.

Industrial action can still be found unlawful by the courts if, taking all the circumstances of the case into account, that action has a disproportionate effect on the rights and freedoms of third parties, or general interests such as public health or safety. In determining whether a strike or other form of industrial action should be prohibited on that basis, the courts may still take into account whether the action has been called for as a last resort and whether it has been pre-announced. However, these two aspects are from now on only to be seen as relevant factors that should be taken into account together with all the other aspects of the case, instead of formal requirements that have to be met in order for industrial action to be lawful at all.
The Supreme Court based its ruling on the European Social Charter. This is the second time in a short period that the right to strike has been stretched. In October 2014, the Supreme Court ruled that unions are also allowed to call employees of clients or suppliers out on strike in order to put pressure on their employer. Traditionally, trade unions were only allowed to organise a strike in companies when they had a conflict with that company.

Annie Ford Band formed eight years ago when Ivan Molton, Matt Manges, Olie Eshleman, Robert Mitchell, and Annie Ford decided to collaborate after admiring each other's previous musical projects. Ford admired Corespondents (Eshleman's other band) and loves other local artists including Gus Clark and the Least of his Problems, Crying Shame, Dean Johnson, The Black Tones, Diminished Men, and Guayaba.
The quintet's major influences include Gillan Welsh, EmmyLou Harris, Etta James, Otis Redding, Jean Shepherd, Loretta Lynn, Eileen Jewell, Townes Van Zandt, T-Bone Burnett, Hank Williams, Tom Waits, Bob Dylan, John Prine, Al Green, Mississippi John Hurt, Sharon Jones, Little Feet. Ford says she could continue to go on and list even more.
During a typical Annie Ford Band set, the group usually plays all songs on the new record. They like to "keep a good balance of slower numbers and up beat ones," and "keep a nice flow to the set." When they first came together, they performed a lot more covers and, in present day, they still sprinkle a few in.
Ford and Matt Manges are the main writers of Annie Ford Band's music. The themes are usually related to moving forward from loss. "Murder ballads come up now and again. Also traveling to find yourself," Ford explains.
Ford notes that the group doesn't have an end goal, and she instead chooses to "think about an ongoing goal. As long as we are enjoying the process of creating and growing the musical bond we have it feels like we are achieving it."
They're currently working on more song writing and will be recording their next album in the coming months. They're in the process of expanding into other digital platforms but can currently be found on Bandcamp (Anniefordband.bandcamp.com), Pandora, iTunes,
Favorite thing about Ballard is, despite the rest of Seattle constantly changing, Ballard offers certain a certain feeling of hominess for artists and, "gives…bands a fighting change in a rough sea that is the music business."

When one makes a living by traveling, most things in your life feel temporary. I use the word temporary with neither positive nor negative implications. I feel that it is an objective way to describe the lifestyle. The pros and cons of this temporary lifestyle is where the matter of opinions lie. One man's pro is another man's con.
When I wake up in the morning, I wake up in a bed/bunk that is temporarily my own, in a town that I will mostly likely be at for less than 24 hours. I then eat breakfast, using plastic silverware and paper plates. We then load-in to a venue that will be my temporary refuge. Everyone is different with how they utilize the venues. I tend to mostly stay off of the bus once we have loaded in, but I would say that I am the minority. Most of the crew I've worked with tends to hang out on the bus during down time, and the artists' almost always do. That's how it has worked out in my experience, however this could just be a coincidence. I generally leave the green-room for the others, (unless we're playing at a Knitting Factory, because they tend to have sweet green-rooms) and I will find some corner on the dank, moldy floor to read or pay my bills or call back home or do whatever I need to do during my down time.
I then set up a temporary store (I sell merch, for those of you who don't know) and then I eat one of my single serving meals. The narrator from Fight Club had it exactly right. When you travel, you lead a single-serving life. It's close to impossible to cook on the bus, so all of my meals come from single serving packages. Whether it's a bag of beef jerky, or a packet of instant oatmeal, it's almost always a pre-portioned meal, which for some reason, feels temporary. In movies, when a scene is trying to convey that a character is in a temporary living situation, they always put them in an apartment with a TV (pre-portioned) dinner.
We meet the "locals," which is what we call the venue staff/stage-hands, and you make a temporary, working relationship with them. Often enough you meet someone who is really cool, someone who you know you would be tight with if proximity were not an issue, but at the end of the day, after load-out, all you can do is give this person a fist pound and hope that AT BEST, you may see him/her again if you find yourself back at that same venue with a different tour.
When everything changes on a day-to-day basis, the constants are very important. I like to have a mug, that is mine and only mine, on the bus. It's the only kitchen utensil that I have that is not a throw-away. I've noticed that everyone seems to have their one item. For some people it's a glass bowl, others a knife… for me, it's a mug. Right now, I'm using a "Union Square Montgomery, Alabama" mug, and it's my constant. I need that mug.
Places can act as a constant. Every time I go to the El Corazon in Seattle, I know that it's going to get hot as hell in there, I know exactly where they keep their hand-truck, I know the security guy with the braided pig-tails will be there to tell me not to go walking around by myself at night, I know the bearded dude will be there to flirt with and to try to help me carry stuff even though I repeatedly tell him that I'm good… and I know that the coffee shop nearby will have plenty of scattered magazines and other reading material about if I forget to bring my book.
The most important constant on tour is the people who you temporarily grow to depend on. When I'm on the road with the English hooligan, he acts as one of my constants. I know that I can sit near him, and not have to fucking talk. I get in funks on occasion (more frequently than I care to admit), and during these times, I instinctively want to be alone. However, if I am able to talk myself into being near another human, it does usually help. I seem to be able to keep hold of my mind a little bit better if there is someone else in the room. The thing is, I don't want to talk or feel any type of conversational pressure during these momentary crazy spells. The hooligan is great because he doesn't ask questions. I can literally crawl underneath his desk (the spot that acts as his temporary working space for the day) and simply say, "I just need to lay here for a minute," and he'll let me be. Well, he'll shake his head at my eccentricity, and say, "Riiiight," but he won't ask me what's wrong, and he won't treat me differently and I feel 100% comfortable in silence with him. That's an important constant. When my day-to-day can be such an unpredictable mess, it's good to know that I can sit by my English hooligan and not have to say anything while I silently work on emotional suppression. I'd like to think that I can provide the same type of sanctuary for him. There have been a couple of times while out on the road with the hooligan, when I knew that something was upsetting him, but I didn't ask questions. I figured if he wanted to say something he would. I just tried to not be as big of a pain in the ass on those days, and even went as far as to offer to tape up the day sheets for him backstage. I think I may have even brought ice onto the bus one of those days so that he didn't have to… damn I'm sweet.
The huge amount of people who you meet on tour is without dispute, a major pro to the lifestyle. However, it is not without its' con counterpart. I am constantly meeting the best people, and you become very close, very quickly to these people. So after a couple of months (however long the tour is), of cultivating amazing relationships, when it is all said and done, it's just temporary. You inevitably have to hug the people goodbye and hope that paths will cross again.
Home starts to feel temporary too, but more in the way that a recycled bag feels temporary. It's a perpetual state of repetition, rather than single-serving. You probably see the same friends and hang out with the same people you did before you left, but it's not like picking up where you left off because that insinuates forward motion; progression in the relationships. No, you begin where you began the last time. Maybe during your time at home, you become closer with someone whether it's romantically or platonically, but then inevitably, you leave. Things continue in this forward motion for the other person, but "home time" stops for you when you're away. You come back and things and people have changed; your environment has changed, but you haven't changed with it. Home feels like a temporary hideout that recycles the same month of your life over and over again.
You visit the coffee shop you go to every morning when you're home, and the barista recognizes you, and he asks how your "trip" was (a question that I hate because I wasn't on a trip I was fucking working you twat… but that's just me being a touchy snob), and you have the same conversation you had the last time you came back. You tell him it was great, and you tell him some little anecdote about some night in some place and he tells you about how grad school is going. You may see him a few times a week for the next few weeks that you're home, and every visit, you feel a tiny bit closer to that barista who has the freckled arms and easily blushes, but then you leave again. When you come back, you start again at one; that same superficial conversation about how your trip was and how school is for him.
Romantic relationships, fucking forget it. They work in the same way as your relationship with the barista. Maybe you start something really good, and you become close, make progress… but then you leave and when you come back the cycle starts over again at one. Your "room," at home, if you're lucky enough to have a room back home to call your bedroom, begins to look and feel like a temporary living space. My stuff is always half packed because if I'm only home for a short amount of time, so unpacking seems pointless.
I get home, and I see my hundreds of CD's that I just leave packed up in boxes, and I think, I should buy a really nice stereo system, but a stereo is permanent. So instead, I just put my temporary headphones on (I don't get really nice headphones because they either break or get lost on the road) and I listen to some music that will temporarily enhance my mood, often times recommended to me by some boy who temporarily made me happy and I temporarily think about how I'm going to utilize my recycled day.
I'd like to conclude this by stating that temporarily, I enjoy my temporary life. I do not mean to imply that this is a negative way to exist. The boy with the white hair recently pointed out that If I stopped touring, I would go stir-crazy after a couple of months. He's right. I'm so fortunate to be doing what I do, but like everything in life, there are things that I love about it and things that really get to me, and sometimes, underneath the adventures and the stacked boxes of t-shirts in the trailer, this temporary life gets lonely.

In Compression Point Processing, the compression point to process is the one that is manifesting the strongest. It could be the only one the client is aware of.
When you look at an area of pain or shock, you are looking at a collapsed area, a collapsed universe.
From the Knowledgism Dictionary:
COLLAPSED UNIVERSE 1. The universe, the organization, or the individual has experienced the collapse of their reason for existing; the failure of their purpose; the disruption of their visions, the absence of the spirit; the disruption of the mind; the conflict of commands and signals to the body; the inappropriate identity or beingness; an
incorrect location; confused or collapsed teammates, and an inability to produce a valuable product. (Policy Series 1) 2. Collapsed universes. This is the compression of You the spirit, your mind, your body, and your identity into a ball of confusion, stupidity, and electronic energy, trapping You, the spirit, into heavy uncomfortable feelings and
unpleasant sensations of hurt and anxiety. (Pain Series 1)
The compression point you need to process can often be located in chakra locations or smaller meridians, also known as acupressure points.
"It is like a storm rotating." is how many describe the compression point.
When the client locates an area of charge, have him/her look for a compression point. If this is not easily done, have the client look for any flows and follow the flow to the compression point.
Once the compression point is perceived, run Compression Point Processing to bleed off pressure, pain and emotion.

If you type "How often should you…" into Google, one of the first autofill suggestions is "How often should you wash your sheets?" You might think you know the answer to this question, but the recommended time between washes actually surprises a lot of people!
It got us thinking: How often should you clean other items around the house? Is there a recommended cleaning cadence for things like pillows and rugs? What about appliances like the stove and microwave?
It turns out that a lot of these objects should be cleaned more regularly than you might think, so we're breaking down the optimal schedule for items in every room of your home.
According to experts, you should probably be washing your sheets more often than you do.
The National Sleep Foundation explains it's best to wash your sheets on a weekly basis. If you can't swing doing a full load that frequently, at least swap at your pillowcases for fresh ones.
Why so often? Because your bed collects lots of stuff while you sleep—sweat, skin cells, soil, food crumbs, makeup, dust mites… you get the picture.
Sure, your pillowcases provide some protection for your bed pillows, but you should periodically wash these, too. Pillows can collect the same icky particles as your sheets, which is why the National Sleep Foundation suggests washing pillows every six months. However, note that foam pillows can't be washed, so you may have to replace them when they get smelly.
The next logical question is, how often should you wash your comforter or duvet? Again, your blanket won't get as dirty as your sheets, but it still needs regular washing. The National Sleep Foundation recommends tossing your comforter in the laundry two or three times a year—use the changing of seasons as a reminder!
If you use a duvet cover, it's best to wash it once a month. Of course, if your blankets are a light color, you may need to wash them more frequently as they get grimy.
Rounding out the list of bedroom essentials is your mattress. While you can't simply throw it in the washer, you can (and should!) vacuum your mattress at least once a year. To remove lingering odors, try sprinkling a thin layer of baking soda over your mattress. Let it sit for a few minutes, then vacuum it up.
When was the last time you washed your bath towel? A week ago? Maybe more? It's easy to forget to swap out towels, but experts recommend you wash them after three or four uses. If you shower every day, that means you should be grabbing a fresh towel at least once a week.
Here's an interesting question: How often should you clean your showerhead? Sure, you probably clean the shower on a weekly basis, but most of us don't take the time to deep clean the shower hardware.
Abe Gal, co-owner of Superior Home Cleaning, tells Angie's List that you should clean it every one to three months, depending on how "hard" your water is. If your water contains high amounts of minerals, it will likely clog the showerhead sooner, forcing you to clean the head more often.
Raise your hand if you forget to clean your shower curtain until there's a generous ring of soap scum around the bottom. According to Merry Maids, you should clean your shower curtain or liner once a month—or at the very least, every three months.
Naturally, you'll want to vacuum your rugs regularly to keep them clean—probably once or twice a week if you have pets. If you have carpeting in your home, consider investing in a professional cleaning at least once a year, more often if you have kids or pets.
You might think you're in the clear if you have hardwood or tile floors, but we have bad news for you: Those should be cleaned frequently, too. Jason Tetro, a microbiologist and author of The Germ Code, tells NBC that you should wash or steam the floors every few weeks and even more frequently in the kitchen.
Moving into the kitchen, here's something that might surprise you: You should be sanitizing your kitchen sponges every single day, according to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. These cleaning tools are a hotspot for bacteria, but you can zap germs by popping your damp sponge in the microwave for a minute.
We all know how tough it is to clean a microwave that's caked with food. That's why experts recommend you deep clean the microwave on a monthly basis, taking out the turntable and scrubbing the whole thing inside and out.
Another appliance that often gets neglected is the oven. Chances are your oven has a self-cleaning option, so use it! A good rule of thumb is to run the self-clean cycle twice a year to keep your stove in top shape, but consult with your owner's manual for the manufacturer's optimal cleaning schedule.
Did you know you need to clean your dishwasher? Well, you definitely do—and fairly regularly, at that. Merry Maids recommends you clean this appliance once a month to prevent mold and fungus from growing.
The easy, hands-off way to clean the dishwasher? Simply run a cycle with a cup of vinegar in the top rack.
Finally, another frequently-Googled question is how often should you wash your car. Giving your ride a good scrub down will help remove dirt, salt, dead bugs, and other contaminants that can ruin the finish, and according to Meineke, you should aim to wash your car every two weeks or so. However, you may need to wash more frequently if you park your car outside or live in an area where the roads are salted during the winter.
Okay, 'fess up: How often are you washing your sheets? Let us know below (no judgment).

Let me be quick to denounce the comments on a few of the "Websites" against Giffords such as; She votes with Socialist Obama on many issues or such as the brain damage will help her vote liberal. This is not ok, and quite frankly it shows the crazy voting base of the GOP.
that supports violence to win elections such as; Sharron Angle vs Reid using 2nd Amendment remedies and Sarah Palin's target districts using actual gun targets in 2010. I've seen hunting season tags for liberals…. hunting season tags for Democrats, but not once have I seen hunting tags for conservative or Republicans.
I hate to say this but, my friend over in Virginia is right when he told me earlier this week he is stocking up on ammo because he is afraid to be a moderate-democrat in a very conservative area. I want an end to this violence, I call everyone to denounce this kind of radical-extremism from the right and even from the left(such as the tree bombers in the northwestern united states)

October 13, 2009: Week 19 of pregnancy
We'll call this the "week of ultrasounds". I had an abdominal scan to look at my liver on Wednesday and the baby ultrasound on Friday! I was a bit anxious before the baby one. Yes, we've heard the heartbeat but lots of things have heartbeats. What does our little alien look like? I've felt "IT" move this week for the first time and it was definitely not gas!
We were happy to see one head, beating heart, bladder, eyeballs and feet. Two of them. We've decided to not have a 4D scan. Feels a bit like spying and there's that part of me that doesn't want to completely know what the baby looks like, in case. I imagine this something-might-go-wrong anxiety won't go away until I'm holding our baby, alive and well in my arms.
My fears are even infiltrating my dreams. I had a particularly vivid one the night following our ultrasound. In the dream, we were told specifically by our doctor that we should put the baby in the freezer; that this was the "done thing."
I've had a few dreams where I forget to feed it, forget what room I've left it in (why, even in dreamland, am I leaving babies in rooms?).
Now that I can picture our baby's little scooped nose and crossed legs, this being pregnant thing is finally feeling more and more real.

In today's market, organisations are faced with unprecedented challenges such as economic uncertainty, intense competition, rapidly changing consumer behaviour and regulatory demands.
Despite the constantly shifting competitive landscape, organisations are continually juggling their core competencies with other business functions, resulting in distractions and avoidable dissipation of energy and resources that could have otherwise been channeled to more productive ventures.
However, forward-looking organisations keen on boosting their competitive advantage are leveraging outsourcing as a strategic tool to increase productivity and optimise value. This helps to narrow the focus to the core business areas, set priorities more clearly and consequently, improve organisational efficiency and productivity.
In this article, we highlight eight reasons why your organisation should outsource its non-core business processes.
Improved Efficiency
Outsourcing your business process to a trusted outsourcing company leads to an increase in productivity. You will be able to tap into an existing resource base without needing to make huge investments to acquire these resources on your own. By doing this, you can optimise value and mitigate risk.
Reinforced Core Competencies
With the distractions of handling certain tasks taken off, you can strengthen your core competencies by channeling your energy and resources appropriately to your major business areas.
Faster Time to Market
The importance of releasing new products ahead of your competitors in a rapidly changing market environment cannot be overemphasised. The external collaboration you access by outsourcing will speed up your product development process, from development to launch.
Leverage Built-In Expertise
You no longer need to make a huge investment in recruitment and training. A trusted outsourcing partner will have a vast pool of highly skilled professionals in various business areas. With them, you can access expertise and capabilities without breaking the bank or compromising the quality you get.
Cost Savings on Investment in Infrastructure
Your outsourcing services provider bears the responsibility of your business processes and provides the resources required for implementation thereby helping you to eliminate the need to invest in infrastructure and technology. You can significantly lower your costs by outsourcing.
A Fresh Perspective to Your Business
When you work with a credible outsourcing vendor, you benefit from a fresh perspective. They take an unbiased look at your business and offer valuable insights that you may easily miss. This different angle can help you innovate.

The announcement of the new cast for Broadway's hugely lauded Hello, Dolly! has been a most strange affair – names trickling out one by one, rather than one big splash. However, it is Bernadette Peters (from 20th January) who has the unenviable task of following in Bette Midler's shoes and trying to maintain the hefty box office that she's managed to garner, and maintain. Victor Garber and our very own Charlie Stemp (making his Broadway debut) have also been revealed and doubtless by the time you read this, more will be have been announced too, one by one.
Producers Tim Levy (Director, NT America) and Jordan Roth (President, Jujamcyn Theaters) announced today that the National Theatre Production of Tony Kushner's epic and seminal masterwork, Angels in America: A Gay Fantasia on National Themes, will return to Broadway for the first time since its now-legendary original production opened in 1993. This spectacular new staging of Part One of Angels in America, Millennium Approaches, and of Part Two, Perestroika, had its world premiere earlier this year in a sold-out run at the National Theatre, where it became the fastest selling show in the organization's history. This strictly limited, 18-week engagement will begin performances at The Neil Simon Theatre on Friday, February 23, 2018, with an official opening on Wednesday, March 21. Public on sale is: 27 October at 10am NYC time. Continue reading "Round-up of news and treats and other interesting things"

Chris Hemsworth leads a charge of US special forces soldiers into Afghanistan in the wake of 9/11.
Dir: Nicolai Fuglsig. US. 2018. 130mins
A solid cast (Chris Hemsworth, Michael Shannon, Michael Peña) and some striking visuals aren't enough to fortify 12 Strong, a run-of-the-mill war movie which touts themes of valour and brotherhood in only the most familiar of ways. Based on a true story but lacking the electricity or perspective that might give this 17 year-old tale any biting relevance, Nicolai Fuglsig's feature debut examines how a dozen US Special Forces soldiers entered Afghanistan shortly after al-Qaeda attacked America, becoming the first troops to launch a risky counter-strike against the terrorist organization.
The film's selling point is less its story than its handful of arresting images
Hemsworth, Shannon and Peña bring expert square-jawed gravitas to their roles, but 12 Strong feels oddly minor for such a major military offensive. Opening January 19 in the US through Warner Bros and a week later in the UK (via Entertainment), this film might draw comparisons with other recent true-life war dramas such as 13 Hours ($69m worldwide), although there might be less interest in this little-known story. 12 Strong will test Hemsworth's commercial muscle away from his signature role as Thor while producer Jerry Bruckheimer's name may also draw attention
Based on journalist Doug Stanton's 2009 book Horse Soldiers, 12 Strong stars Hemsworth as Mitch, the leader of a Special Forces team who had accepted a desk job right before the 9/11 terror attacks. Horrified at the carnage and determined to strike revenge, he talks his way into bringing a handful of men, including Hal Spencer (Shannon) and Sam Diller (Peña), into Afghanistan to hit back at those who struck America.
This war movie's central novelty — aside from the fact that the Special Forces unit was badly outnumbered — is that the soldiers would need to ride horses to traverse Afghanistan's treacherous mountain terrain, eventually having to face off with enemy forces armed with tanks. This development only amplifies 12 Strong's underdog spirit, but Fuglsig (a commercial director and photojournalist) fails to find the proper tenor for the proceedings.
12 Strong wants to be triumphant but also mournful, rousing but also thoughtful in its chronicling of America's place in a changing, complicated world. That tonal nuance is commendable — trying to satisfy war-movie fans but also investigating the foolishness of the US's policy to rush into the Middle East after 9/11 — but the results are more muddled than thematically intricate.
The problems extend to the depiction of this classified, fraught mission. An end-credits crawl makes the case for this operation's historical significance, but the film is populated by underwritten, sometimes heavily clichéd characters. In 12 Strong, if a soldier is befriended by an adorable local Afghan boy who initially annoys him, it's a good bet that, by the third act, a tragic event will make that soldier realise how much the kid has come to mean to him. Harrowing near-death scenes occur, as does the unspooling of predictably emotional backstories. But neither the Special Forces' operation nor the individual soldiers' makeup is that compelling.
Hemsworth and the rest of the cast do what they can to inject some humanity and grit. An underrated dramatic actor, he refuses to play Mitch as a simplistic war hero — rather, he's a soft-spoken, concerned father and husband who wants to help his country, vowing that none of his men will be killed during this mission. There's a potential richness in a character who can't sit on the sidelines but only starts to realise how byzantine the political climate is in Afghanistan, but Hemsworth doesn't have the space to really explore Mitch's psychology.
Shannon and Peña are equally hemmed in by Ted Tally and Peter Craig's screenplay, although Navid Negahban is at least given some dignity and spark as an Afghan general who is initially distrustful of these American soldiers.
But the film's selling point is less its story than its handful of arresting images. Although shot entirely in New Mexico, 12 Strong convincingly enough feels like the Middle East, and cinematographer Rasmus Videbaek captures the thrilling juxtaposition of men on horseback battling enemies in thunderous tanks. Fuglsig bracingly fashions some of these war scenes as if they were Western shootouts with the cavalry riding into town.

BI's Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.
To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, "workers compensation". This will limit your search to that combination of words.
To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, "hurricane" & "loss".
ALBANY, N.Y.-The nation's largest group health care benefit program is exempt from hefty New York-mandated surcharges on hospital and other medical bills in the state.
New York Department of Health officials say health insurance plans that participate in the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program do not have to pay surcharges on hospital and other health care bills for services provided to federal employees in the program. The program covers nearly 9 million federal employees, dependents and retirees through about 385 health maintenance organizations and fee-for-service plans.
The surcharges, which range from 8.18% to 57.27%, are included in a 1996 New York law. Other employers have been liable for the surcharges since Jan. 1.
The actual amount of the surcharge depends on whether an employer has agreed to pay the surcharges directly to a New York state pool administrator and the location of a hospital where an employee is treated. The highest surcharges and certain other fees apply on bills incurred in hospitals in New York City.
The exemption from the surcharges was confirmed in an exchange of letters between the New York Department of Health and the U.S. Office of Personnel Management, the federal agency that administers the health care benefits program for federal employees.
An attorney representing insurers in the federal program provided the letters as part of an effort to reduce the likelihood that New York hospitals would erroneously try to collect surcharges on bills that federal employees incur.
In a letter sent to the New York Department of Health, Lucretia F. Myers, the OPM assistant director for insurance programs, said a provision in the Federal Employees Health Benefits Act exempts health benefits plans participating in the federal program from state taxes.
Under that act, "No tax, fee, or other monetary payment may be imposed, directly or indirectly, on a carrier or an underwriting or plan administration subcontractor of an approved health benefits plan by any state...with respect to any payment made from the" plans in the program.
Last month, New York Department of Health General Counsel Henry M. Greenberg said the department elected "not to dispute" OPM's determination that the New York surcharges are pre-empted by the federal law and that the New York surcharges cannot be assessed on participants in the federal program.
While the federal health benefits program is exempt from the surcharges, a comparable exemption does not exist for health care benefits programs provided by other employers, including state and local governments as well as private employers.
However, the New York law is the target of at least two lawsuits.
They charge that the law conflicts with a provision in the federal Employee Retirement Income Security Act that pre-empts state laws and rules that "relate" to employee benefit plans provided by employers (BI, Jan. 20). Those suits are pending.

In this post we look at Summary Level Drill from PBCS!!!!! Yes, it is finally here. Now despite my excitement, I promise to remain unbiased in this blog post and tell you what I like and what I don't like about the recently enabled feature. This blog post will cover how to activate the feature with a drill to Fusion Cloud.
Triggering On-Demand Source Data Loads from within PBCS
In this post we look at on-demand data loads from source to PBCS. In on-premise Hyperion, if the requirement is to trigger on-demand data loads from within Hyperion they are a few options like Calc Manager command line triggers or Workspace Generic Jobs both of which can trigger batch scripts on the underlying servers to trigger the load from source systems to Hyperion. In PBCS this is a lot more difficult due to limitations of PBCS being a cloud solution that is not able to directly integrate with all source systems due to both technology and locations of these systems.
Groovy This & Groovy That – Part 3 The Example
Lets now get a little bit more practical with an example to show how we will Login to PBCS and run some commands, but with a twist.... Why ordinary!!!! That would only be boring. Today our example, will run a program that will interact with the triggering user and execute commands based on the entered input. This program/mini-application will allow the user to list files, delete files, upload and download files to and from PBCS and execute Jobs in PBCS using Groovy commands. Please note this example can be further expanded to do much more in PBCS and leverage all the PBCS REST API functions, however the commands listed will be used as the example in this post.

There are many unique and clever ways that old furniture can be resurrected and turned into useful furniture that can be enjoyed everyday by the entire family. The furniture makeover approach to discovering new furniture options will end up saving a homeowner a considerable amount of time and money because buying fine furniture can be quite expensive at times.
The materials that can be used in the makeover process of old furniture can come from other styles of furniture that a person finds at a yard sale or those found in the attic of a home and have no useful purpose at all and are simply taking up storage space that could make the home seem more livable and spacious. Home building materials can be fashioned into fine furniture in several hours if the homeowner is crafty with a saw and a hammer.
There are many reasons why people choose to makeover furniture instead of buying new furniture at a fine furniture department store. Some people get quite attached to furniture that they grew up with such as beds and dressers but do to size requirements they are not able to use them anymore. With the application of stripper to remove old varnishes and paint, an old dresser can be converted into a bathroom lavatory with the application of a new stain and a coat of varnish.
People can fashion headboards for use in the bedroom that are made from old pieces of plywood. These furniture pieces can be covered with a variety of colorful fabrics and cut to fit any style of furniture that a bedroom might need. At a later date, these headboards can be converted to art furnishings for a wall in the family game room or be used in other makeover projects that routinely happen throughout the home.
Many furniture items simply need a coat of paint to take on a new character that is rugged and refreshing. Some large pieces of furniture can become centerpieces for large walls in the home and the home will take on a totally different look in a short amount of time. The home interior will be very pleasing to the eye and comfortable after a furniture makeover because the blank space against an offending wall has been filled with beautiful furniture that did not cost much at all to makeover.
With proper care, fine furniture can last a long time. People that are interested in recycling efforts are typical makeover enthusiasts that believe in using furniture woods over and over again. In olden times, furniture craftsmen practiced furniture makeovers because supplies of wood were very limited or hard to come by due to the distances involved between settlements. Furniture makeovers are considered quite fashionable and a good alternative to using natural resources when the same resources are already available to them.

It appears that the Antikythera mechanism is older than thought and may not be the work of Archimedes, after all. Hmm...
Many have speculated that the Greek mathematician Archimedes was responsible for the device, but new analysis recently published in the Archive for History of Exact Sciences by Dr. Christián C. Carman at the National University of Quilmes and Dr. James Evans of the University of Puget Sound suggests that the calendar of the mechanism began in 205 B.C., which is 50 to 100 years earlier than previously thought. This timing suggests that Archimedes is less likely to be the creator of the mechanism, leaving the mystery of the creator wide open.via Laughing Squid.
