London has long had a reputation as a world leading centre of excellence in the area of bariatric surgery. Talk to you about your lifestyle and dietary habits. BMI 30-35 cuts life expectancy up to 4 yrs. After a consultation we may decide surgery is the most effective and long term solution. The doctor prescribed for me a course of tablets and a diet.

I first came to Ageless Medical Weight at the end of April. At first I was skeptical about the dramatic results I had seen on TV. I had tried everything and did not know if the program would work for me. I had constantly struggled to keep my weight off after doing those fad diets. It was always a short term goal to a look time problem. Nothing worked until I came to Ageless Medical Weight Loss and MedSpa. They did not quick fix the weight issue they fixed they weight issue. And it was easy. Ageless reprogrammed my body and my mind. This program gave me a whole new approach to life. A healthy life!

Whether you're at an all inclusive in Mexico, Punta Cana or Las Vegas, there's nothing quite like swimming up to a bar to grab a drink! In Season 2, Episode 2 ("The Ultimate Swim Up Bar"), Andrew and Kevin set out to build their own floating tavern complete with underwater seating, a floating pool table, and a gleaming bar top made entirely out of nickels… giving us the name "The Barnickel".
Inspired by trips that Kevin and his wife Christine made to all-inclusive resorts 'down south', "The Ultimate Swim Up Bar" prompted us to do a bit of our own traveling by proxy. What we came up with is something we're calling the Brojects Guide to the Top Swim Up Bars on the Planet.
5. Banyan Tree Mayakoba: This beachfront boutique resort in Playa del Carmen is a blend of nature and luxury on Mexico's famous Mayan Riviera coast. With a private beach, golf course and this world class swim up bar, it's got everything you need (except maybe, the Brojects-built Ultimate Outdoor Theatre) to enjoy while you lounge around in the pool.
4. Hotel Monte Mulini-Rovinj, Croatia
Situated right on the Mediterranean, this 5-star Maistra boutique hotel offers a swimming pool complex over 400 square meters in size. You can grab a drink and swim into any number of hydro-massage, heated or cold water pools.
3. Warwick Fiji Resort & Spa, Viti Levu, Fiji: Enjoy the South Pacific and all that it has to offer, especially at the Warwick Fiji Resort and Spa. Like grabbing a drink from the swim up bar then grabbing a bite in the the water restaurant. BTW: We are NOT sharing this one with Andrew as the next thing you know, the Buckles family dining room table could be parked next to the "Ultimate Swim Up Bar"!
2. Le Meridien Mina Seyahi Beach Resort & Marina, Dubai: "The Horizon" at Le Meridien Mina Seyahi Beach Resort offers five pool bars to choose from with casual snacks, leisurely cocktails and the best sundowns in town.
1. The Regent Palms. Turk and Caicos: Steps away from the flawless white sands and sparkling sapphire waters of Grace Bay, The Regent Palms, Turks and Caicos Islands boasts quite possibly the best swim up bar on the planet. The plunge pool is framed by a lavishly designed serpentine infinity pool and has an innovative in-water seating Plunge Bar and restaurant… We can only assume that the in-water seating is much better than our Kevin-designed log and concrete bar stool.

I am delighted to host Joy McGee today. She has written a very moving tribute about my parents and my family. I am humbled and grateful that she was so blessed by God while visiting with my family yesterday. Enjoy!
A piece of heaven
As I walked into this unfamiliar place, I was greeted with open arms full of hugs. They all knew me by name. How? I assume my friend had already told them of me but I couldn't be sure. The way they said it, was as if it had been on their lips forever and within seconds, it felt like home. The walls busted at the seams with family members, all there to visit with the couple of sixty six years and to learn from the eyes that had seen much of this life. Did Mr. and Mrs. Evans know they were teaching as they sat in their seperate chairs there in the living room?; teaching of Christ's love over each generation represented that gathered around them (three in all); teaching of commitment and loyalty. I doubt they did but I am certain that as laughter filled the air with stories and jokes floating through, the family learned. I cut hair with slow gentle hands and soaked the moments in…listening, smiling, witnessing. Jesus stroking the hearts of all. Love pouring out of every syllable spoken.
When my work was finished, fresh peaches and strawberries served over warm cream cheese bunt cake was brought to everyone in the room. I sat and ate, the sweet taste on my tongue, cacooned in the romance of my Abba through this wonderful family, listening to the rain. Such peace.
Departing was just as sweet, hugging the necks of all; each whispering words of thanks in my ear. Little did they know, the pleasure was all mine. I received such a blessing being in their midst, an outsider welcomed into this piece of heaven on earth. It will be a moment in time that will remain with me always.

Can you believe we are back in Daylight Savings Time and Pesach is only a month away? Yup. Time flies and we are now in that time of year I like to call "purge the wheat." We have to clean out the house and use up the chametz to make room for the Pesach foods.
When the kids were younger, we had a fun tradition: We would take all the open packages of pasta shapes — from alphabets to stars, wagon wheels, elbows, bow ties and more — and cook them together. We would then add all kinds of cheese and more to some of the pasta and dinner was served. The kids would count their wagon wheels or try to find words with pasta letters. Playing with the food was fine in this case, as they also ate plenty of broccoli, green beans and more while finding their favorite pasta shapes in their dinner. We would save the rest of the pasta for another diner and, instead of adding cheese, I would often mixed it with ground turkey, seitan, or hamburger and tomato sauce.
Another way to use up the chametz is to mix all kinds of leftover cereals together and add lots of dried fruits, nuts, some oats, and toss with pure maple syrup. Toast in the oven for about 15 to 20 minutes and you have a light and delicious granola perfect for snacks and lunchboxes.
This can be a fun and cost-saving time of year as you get creative in the kitchen and see what you can make with what you have. Enjoy!
Vegan, Organic, Gluten-Free Scrumptious Beans and Rice 'Kugel'
4 fairly large onions, cut in half and thinly sliced
2 large leeks, white part only
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 to 4 Tbsp. canola or extra virgin olive oil
3 10-oz packages mushrooms
2 to 4 cups organic mushroom, onion, or vegetable stock or water
1-1/2 cups long grain white rice. (You can also use brown rice, just pre-cook it longer.)
1/2 cup organic wild rice
1 cup (or more) cooked or canned beans, lima, navy, black, or kidney
1/2 bag frozen green peas
1/4 cup fresh chives, snipped
salt and pepper to taste
Wash the leeks and slice them in half lengthwise. Cut each half in thin, half-moon slices, and break them apart if they stick together.
Cut the onions in half and thinly slice them into half-moon slices. Break them apart.
Clean and slice the mushrooms.
Finely mince the garlic.
Drain the beans, if using canned beans.
Heat a large frying pan and add the oil. Add the onions and sauté until golden. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly for 1 minute. Add the mushrooms and cook until the mushrooms give off their juices and reabsorb them. Remove from heat. Add the peas and mix to heat. Scrape the mixture into a large bowl. Set aside.
Generously grease a glass or ceramic 3-quart baking dish. Set aside.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Meanwhile, parboil the rice and wild rice in different pots until each is about halfway cooked. Drain. Mix into the onion-mushroom mixture. Add the beans and the minced chives and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Pour into the casserole dish and spread evenly.
Add the water or stock to the pan in which the mushrooms were cooked and heat just to boiling to deglaze and get up any bits of remaining onion, garlic and mushroom. Pour the liquid carefully over the rice and cover the pan with aluminum foil. Bake at 350 for about 45 minutes, checking several times to make sure that there is enough liquid. Add more boiling liquid, if needed. Uncover to brown for the last 5 to 10 minutes of cooking. Serves 8 to 12.
Whole Wheat and Oat Bread (Pareve)
2 packages active dry yeast
3 cups warm water (103 to 107 degrees)
1/3 cup unsulphured molasses
1/4 cup canola oil
3 Tbsp. pure maple syrup
1-1/2 Tbsp. salt
2/3 cup rolled oats
7-1/2 to 8 cups whole-wheat flour or white and wheat mixed for lighter bread
OPTIONAL: Add some toasted wheat germ, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, anything you find in your cabinet that you think will work. A couple of Tbsp. or more of one or several will add nutrition and texture to your bread.
Place the yeast in a warmed bowl (swirl some hot water in the bowl and discard) and add the warm water. Mix until the yeast is dissolved. Add the molasses and maple syrup and stir. Let proof for 15 minutes until bubbly. Stir oil, salt, oats, and 4 cups of flour into the yeast mixture. Beat until smooth. Add 3 more cups of flour and mix to make a stiff dough. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 10 to 15 minutes, until dough is smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, sprinkle some flour over the sough and knead it into the dough until the dough is no longer sticky, but smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl and turn to cover all sides. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
Punch down, and turn onto floured surface. Knead a few times and divide dough in half. Cover and let rise 15 minutes. Shape into 2 loaves, about 8 by 3 inches, and put into 2 greased loaf pans. Let rise about 1 hour. If you like, you can press some oatmeal into the top of the loaves. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour and 10 minutes. Let cool on wire racks. Makes 2 loaves.
Crunchy Granola Cookies (Dairy)
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup crunch peanut butter
1 extra large egg
1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
2 cups of your favorite granola (I like vanilla almond and cranberry)
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup chopped almonds, walnuts or macadamia nuts
OPTIONAL: 1/2 cup mini or regular chocolate chips or white chips
1/2 cup toffee candy, finely crushed
Grease a cookie sheet and set aside. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Cream the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add the peanut butter and beat until creamy. Add the egg and beat well. Remove the bowl from the electric mixer stand and sift the flour and other dry ingredients over the sugar mixture. Fold in with a fork until well blended. Add the granola, raisins and nuts and mix well. Add the chips if desired and mix well. Drop by rounded teaspoons on the cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake for 15 minutes until lightly golden. Let cool for several minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling. Makes about 18 to 24 cookies.

X-Trigger.com - Full Restart
After years, selling triggers for the X-Feeder we decided to rebuild our service from the very beginning.
Of course, it was not necessary to make something to continue to fulfill orders, but still we wanted to make our site better and more comfortable for our customers. After long time of thinking, what can we change, we decided to change everything, starting from the design, and finishing with selling system.
The most important change is that we decided to add trading functionality to the X-Trigger. Before only the X-Feeder team processed all sales, no any dashboard for our partners was in service. Now we are planning to add traders dashboard where they will see, what they are selling and how much earning. With internal wallet, with possibility to order money withdraws.
It is important to mention, that now we will continue our business in other direction - we are planning to add other products besides triggers for the X-Feeder. At the moment it's a secret, but soon you will know more about those changings :)
Also now, it depends on you, what we will sell on the X-Triger.com. Therefore, if you have any offer, and you need trading platform for your script, just contact our support team and we discuss partnership opportunities.
Finally, support became much better. Now we have ticket system and live chat, where you can contact our support manager or leave your message.

Revision 14 for 'Lover's fracture'All Revisions - View changeset
Lover fracture
A lover fracture (also known as Don Juan fracture) is a type of calcaneal fracture. They may be intra- or extra-articular.
The name lover fracture is derived from the fact that a suitor may jump from great heights while trying to escape from the lover's spouse 2. There is an important association between lover's fractures and burst fractures of the lumbar spine.
Radiographic features
Plain film
Böhler angle is the angle between two tangent lines drawn across the anterior and posterior borders of calcaneus in the lateral view. When Böhler angle becomes less than 20 degrees it suggests a calcaneal fracture is present.
CT is the modaity of choice to evaluate calcaneal fracture. It can show the extent and extra- or intra-articular components of the fracture. Also for evaluation of hematoma along sole of foot (Mondor sign).

The premise of this idea was to create a magnetic field, over which a swarm of magnets would move. Trail and error, however, proved it to be more complicated than originally thought. This led to experiments with metal powder that only at times came to interesting results. The problem here was that the results were very hard to recreate and direct. In this experiment I used two round disks, covered with magnets. These disks fit into each other, and by turning, the magnetic field would shift as well. Eventually, I chose to use only one unit to simulate insect behavior. To prevent the unit from resting on one spot, it is being kept in motion by a motor oscillating it over the field. The image gives an impression of the movements created by this unit.

What is meant by the term person or personality in law?
The word 'person' is derived from the Latin word 'persona'. Many definitions of person have been given by various writers. According to Gray, a person is "an entity to which rights and duties may be attributed." It means not only human beings but also associations as well. 'Personality', on the other hand, is a very vague and wide term and it has a variety of meanings. According to Paton, a legal personality is a particular device by which law creates units to which it ascribes certain powers. It is merely a convenient juristic device by which the problem of organizing rights and duties are carried out.

The incredible Patent Impulsoria
The Illustrated London News for 22 June 1850 explains how this amazing invention works:
This ingenious means of applying animal power to the working of railways, so as to supersede the costly locomotive engine, has lately been invented in Italy, and exhibited experimentally upon the South-Western Railway. It consists in introducing the animals into a kind of coach, called Impulsoria, by which they transmit their acting power to the leading wheels.
The horse being thus introduced into the Impulsoria, is placed upon a perfect rectilinear, artificial ground, or platform, turning so easily, that the animal, which is yoked to the shafts, when it walks, does not itself advance; but, what amounts to the same thing, the platform itself is pushed backward. By this artificial ground platform, called by the patentee pedivella, is moved a tree, armed with a pulley, from which, by means of a rope, the motion is conveyed to the axle-tree of the leading wheels. The varying proportions between the diameters of the pulleys give different degrees of speed. The horses are to be worked always at their usual pace, whilst the new locomotive will be able to run at any requisite speed, even at sixty miles an hour, without ever altering the usual walking pace of the horses.
The new machine, whose inventor is Signor Clemente Masserano, has been brought from Italy to England, and deposited at the Nine-elms terminus of the South-Western Railway, where it may be seen working on the line. It has been made for two horses only, and they work it very well on the pedivella. More than thirty wagons have already been drawn by it up the very inclined line of the station. In the experiment to be made on the great line, it is expected to gain a speed of from fifteen to twenty miles an hour; and it is calculated that an engine of two horses more will run at a speed superior to that of a steam engine.
By the simple manner in which the horses exercise their moving power on the new machine, they can work easily the usual time (commonly about eight hours a day). During these eight hours, the Impulsoria can run at least over thirty miles eight times; and as four horses do not cost much more than two shillings each per day, it would be an expense of eight shillings only, instead of on account of coke only, the cost of which is sixpence each mile run.
The principal advantage of the new machine will be to afford very cheap locomotion on all branch lines, thus extending the advantage of the railway to localities hitherto impracticable from the expensive moving power.

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege is closing in on providing players with two solid years of strategic multiplayer team combat and the experience will continue to build with its newest expansion Operation White Noise. This new content features a new massive map set in South Korea and three new operators, one from Poland and two from South Korea. As with the previous expansions to Rainbow Six Siege, these new operators will bring their own unique talents and skills to the table and open up new strategies in this continuously-evolving game.
The three new operators consist of two attackers and one defender. Introducing the offensive players first there is Zofia, hailing from Poland. Her specialty is the KS79 Lifeline, a double barrel launcher that can fire both concussion and impact grenades making her great at knocking down barriers and taking enemy soldiers out of commission. The offensive half of the Korean crew is Dokkaebi, who brings the Logic Bomb to the party. This is where she uploads a virus that infects the enemy's electronic devices, causing them to emit a loud noise and vibrate to compromise their position. This is an effective tool as it is very irritating to be on the receiving end of this. The Korean defender is basically a high tech ninja known as Vigil. His unique toy is the ERC-7, which scans enemy surveillance devices and wipes his image clean from them, granting him invisibility from monitoring devices.
The new map is large and appeared to be an office building with some impressive massive golden fish sculptures for decoration. There are two main floors with some upper level access, giving both attacking and defending players plenty of opportunities to hide and wait for a stealthy kill or to find a new way to bust into the fortified zone. The multiplayer mode we played in Operation White Noise was two teams of five alternating between attacking and defending, the with the goal to either defend some bombs or defuse them.
When defending the bombs, players on the defensive team will vote before the match on where they want to set up the bombs, with their choice being between a couple different locations on either the first or second floor. They have about thirty seconds to prep their defenses in the bomb room before the three minute match begins. During this prep time players can put up barricades in open doorways, throw down serpentine wire to slow egress or reinforce the walls to prevent the intruders from knocking down the walls to disarm the bombs. After prepping is done, players need to work together to keep their location safe since the attackers can come from all directions, including openings in the ceiling.
The attacking team has the same brief preparation time, but their objective is different. They have drones that they send through the building to locate the enemy's position along with the bombs so that the objective gets tagged on the map. The occupational hazard that comes with being a drone is when they get near their objective, there is a chance the defending team might see them and subsequently blast them to smithereens. After prep time ends, the team needs to figure out how to get off the roof and get to their objective, which can be done in a number of ways. They may choose to rappel down the building's exterior and go in through a window or they may choose to rappel down an elevator shaft. Taking more conventional ways such as working their way gradually down and taking the stairs is also acceptable, but where's the fun in that? Certain characters, such as a Sledge, can simply pound through weak areas in the floor and everyone jumps down the hatch into enemy territory. A key thing to remember about being on the attacking team is possessing the diffuser is necessary to disarm a bomb once they get close enough to it.
Rainbow Six Siege has never been a game that was designed for a lone wolf approach and clear communication with one's team is just as important as proficiency with the game. Operation White Noise is no different and with the new operators, new opportunities for team strategy open up. With the robust roster of characters with unique special abilities, planning out which characters to put on a team prior to the match can be a crucial part of strategy. Characters with the ability to give away an enemy's position by disrupting their electronic devices of tracking them through walls with their heartbeat can tear down the most well constructed defense. The gameplay mechanics are solid which makes for a decent gaming experience in itself, but what makes Rainbow Six Siege is the camaraderie that is built by a successful team planning and communicating during the match. As it currently stands, Operation White Noise looks like it will deliver more of what fans have come to enjoy.

[Ed. Note: Senate Republicans want to pass this bill by tomorrow, before people have a chance to see how really terrible it is. And John McCain just got on board.
As the New York Times puts it, "It Started as a Tax Cut. Now It Could Change American Life."
"With a potentially far-reaching dimension, elements in both the House and Senate bills could constrain the ability of states and local governments to levy their own taxes, pressuring them to limit spending on health care, education, public transportation and social services. In their longstanding battle to shrink government, Republicans have found in the tax bill a vehicle to broaden the fight beyond Washington.
The result is a behemoth piece of legislation that could widen American economic inequality while diminishing the power of local communities to marshal relief for vulnerable people — especially in high-tax states like California and New York, which, not coincidentally, tend to vote Democratic."]
From Indivisible Somerville, whose mission is to empower members of the community to actively and effectively participate in the political process combining traditional grassroots strategies with modern technology, rapid innovation and collaborative action :
" The Senate will vote soon on the Republican tax plan. If passed, the plan will decimate higher education, the Affordable Care Act and many of the deductions that matter to hard-working Americans. Meanwhile, it slashes corporate taxes while greatly favoring the very wealthy. A recent analysis indicates that it will ultimately lead to tax hikes for 50% of Americans, primarily members of the middle class. Meanwhile, Trump and his family stand to gain more that $1 billion under the plan.
The overwhelming majority of economists predict that the Republican plan will also balloon the deficit. As a result, the Congressional Budget Office says, it could trigger $25 billion in automatic Medicare spending cuts next year, plus another $111 billion in reductions to other programs. And the deficit will give Republicans an excuse to make further Medicare cuts as well as cuts to Medicaid, Social Security, and programs that benefit the poor and the powerless.
This bill will give massive tax cuts to corporations and the very wealthy while 277,000 Bay Staters will lose health insurance coverage and 654,900 Massachusetts families will see a tax increase.
Polls indicate that most Americans oppose this tax scam. Call Senators Markey (202-224-2742) and Warren (202-224-4543) and urge them to delay the bills passage by withholding consent and offering hundreds of amendments."

Before a presidential election that could decide its fate, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau remains squarely in Republican cross hairs.
House lawmakers tangled on Wednesday with Richard Cordray, director of the bureau, accusing it of overstepping its bounds in overseeing areas as various as payday loans, mandatory arbitration clauses and discrimination in the auto market.
"Congress has made Mr. Cordray a dictator," said Representative Jeb Hensarling, Republican of Texas, the chairman of the House Financial Services Committee. "And when it comes to the well-being and liberty of American consumers, he is not a particularly benevolent one."
Republicans pressed Mr. Cordray on a number of issues, including a proposal imposing federal standards on the payday loans market. The bureau released an outline of the proposal last spring, before sending it to the agency's small-business review panel for input. Officials had indicated the proposed rule could be released as soon as February, but additional delays are now expected.
Some committee members expressed concern that new restrictions would undermine state laws governing the payday industry.
"At issue are roughly 38 states that allow these products to be offered in some form and the federal pre-emption that will occur if your rule goes forward as outlined," said Representative Randy Neugebauer, Republican of Texas.
Mr. Cordray played down the issue, saying "whatever we do in this area will coexist with state law."
Republican lawmakers were also critical of the agency's efforts to potentially limit the use of mandatory arbitration clauses in financial contracts, which can prohibit consumers from joining class-action lawsuits.
The bureau released an outline of the proposal in October to be considered by its small-business review panel, after issuing a report on the topic last March.
"The report was criticized by a number of academics and industry for completely ignoring major pieces of data," said Representative Bill Huizenga, Republican of Michigan, adding that more than 80 members of Congress asked the bureau to reopen the study last June.
But Mr. Cordray defended his agency's steps, noting that the Dodd-Frank financial overhaul directed the bureau to study the issue.
"Our report has been widely recognized as the single most comprehensive and informative report on this issue ever done," he said. "Congress asked us to do a broad, comprehensive study – we spent three years on it. We're now moving ahead with Congress's direction to engage in policy intervention based on that."
Committee members also had tough words for the bureau's work in uncovering unintentional discrimination in auto lending, raising doubts about the statistical methods the bureau has used to determine cases of discrimination in actions against Toyota Motor Credit, Ally Financial and others.
Some Democrats raised questions about the bureau's efforts to oversee the indirect auto-lending market and the methods used to determine circumstances where lending policies led to higher interest rates for some minorities. The bureau does not have jurisdiction over auto dealers, but it does oversee indirect auto lending, where a dealer negotiates financing for a consumer with a bank or other lender. The House, including 88 Democrats, passed a bill last November that would require the agency to toss out its 2013 auto lending guidance.
Still, Democrats were largely supportive of the bureau's work.
"Republicans have turned the C.F.P.B. into a political punching bag, attempting to undermine its work at every turn," said Representative Maxine Waters, Democrat of California, the ranking member on the panel.
Mr. Cordray also defended the consumer agency's actions and outlined several areas it was looking into, including certain credit card promotions and completing a rule on prepaid debit cards.
"We're just trying to put consumers in a position so they can make choices that they won't regret later, so they can know what they really want to know at the time," he said. "That empowers consumers and promotes personal liberty."
He added that the bureau had "significant concerns" with deferred-interest promotions for credit cards, where interest rates on a credit card balance are delayed for a period under certain conditions.
"It's an issue we're looking at very carefully, and we're going to be taking actions as appropriate," Mr. Cordray said. "I think that credit card issuers should be mindful of thinking about their deferred-interest products and the harm that's happening to a number of consumers who end up with back-end pricing that's very different than what was represented to them up front."
The bureau plans to complete its rule overseeing prepaid debt cards within months, he said. He cited an incident with the RushCard, a line of prepaid cards founded by Russell Simmons, an executive in the hip-hop music business, in which a technological breakdown froze consumer accounts for several days last year. He called it a "significant fiasco."
"Many, thousands of consumers had prepaid money on these cards and could not get access to that money," Mr. Cordray said. "If anything, that shows me we need strong consumer protections for prepaid cards, for which none exist today."

Published at Tuesday, April 30th, 2019 - 23:46:14 PM. Worksheet. By Darcelle Laporte.
Conclusion, There are two fundamental problems with worksheets. First, young children do not learn from them what teachers and parents believe they do (Kostelnik, Soderman, & Whiren, 1993). Second, children's time should be spent in more beneficial endeavors (Willis, 1995). The use of abstract numerals and letters, rather than concrete materials, puts too many young children at risk of school failure. This has implications for years to come. Worksheets and workbooks should be used in schools only when children are older and developmentally ready to profit from them (Bredekamp, S. & Rosegrant, T., 1992). Our challenge is to convince parents and others that in a play-based, developmentally appropriate curriculum children are learning important knowledge, skills, and attitudes that will help them be successful in school and later life.
These are NOT good reasons to use a steady diet of worksheets: "My kids love worksheets." Actually, I loved worksheets as a kid. My daughter loves them too. But we shouldn't give our kids something just because they like it. My kids would love to watch TV all day and eat candy for dinner, too. We might also do well to determine why they like worksheets. Is it because they are easy? Because it means they don't have to think as hard? Because worksheets let them be passive learners?. I'm just preparing my students for the next grade – because that teacher uses a ton of worksheets and workbooks. Believe me, this was a real concern of mine as a classroom teacher. How would my students be ready for the stacks of workbooks in the next grade if we didn't do some in my room? Then I read somewhere — "It's not your job to prepare your students for bad teaching." That was a great comfort!.

It has already been a whirlwind since I have been here in Minnesota with all the family back together. I traveled with #1 and #4 which turned out to be a lot better of an experience than I was expecting. Have you ever traveled with young children? It ain't easy folks. Trust.
So now that I'm here
and bored have free time, I have found that there is a lot of greenery maintenance. In other words, there is weeding to be done. I have literally never weeded anything in my life. First of all, I hate hard work I prefer to do my chores indoors. Secondly, I'm mostly Irish, therefore the sun and I do not get along. And thirdly, and perhaps most importantly here in the midwest, I DO NOT LIKE BUGS. However, bugs seem to like me like a fat girl loves cake.
Despite all of these factors I braved the elements and weeded the garden. I hacked up the bushes. I swatted the mosquitos. And I prevailed. *cue the dramatic music* Do I get a badge for this?
And because this was such a monumental task (hey I hear you chuckling out there!) I asked for Captain America to help (but his real identity is kept hidden just like all super heroes-lol). He kept saying "see mommy, you have to break the sticks like this *arrrrrrffffff* *snap* and then put it in the basket like this". Can somebody please send him to a lab? Because I swear he was cloned from his father who just loves his garden. Adorable in spades.

Israel responds to Gaza rocket by striking over 30 targets
Tanks and jets pounded sites in the Palestinian enclave after terrorists launched a projectile at Israeli civilians
Stephen is the Jewish News' Foreign Editor
Israeli tanks and aircraft attacked at least 30 different sites in the Gaza Strip after a rocket was fired into Israel from the coastal enclave on Sunday.
The retaliation, which Hamas warned was an "escalation," came after unknown terrorists launched the rocket towards the town of Sderot, where it landed in a residential area causing no injuries or damage. No group claimed responsibility.
Multiple airstrikes in the north targeted the town of Beit Hanoun, injuring a Palestinian teenager. One Israeli shell is reported to have hit a water tower. In Gaza, hundreds of youngsters were forced to take cover at a televised music festival.
Army spokesman Peter Lerner said Israel had acted "to bring quiet to the people of southern Israel," adding: "When terrorists in Hamas' Gaza Strip, driven by a radical agenda based on hatred, attack people in the middle of the summer vacation, their intentions are clear – to inflict pain, cause fear and to terrorise."
Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri said: "We hold (Israel) responsible for the escalation in the Gaza Strip and we stress that its aggression will not succeed in breaking the will of our people and dictate terms to the resistance."
There have now been 14 rockets fired into Israel in 2016, including one which hit a building in Sderot on 2 July, causing damage but no injuries.
Ruling group Hamas has repeatedly said it does not seek war, but while its own armed wing is bound by the ceasefire with Israel, other terror groups operate in the territory, including Islamic Jihad. Israel holds Hamas responsible for all actions in the Strip.

Connection in between Belief and dependency Recovery
A medication or alcoholism impacts every area of an individual's life. Along with job and also connection issues, a chemical abuse issue can increase some really unpleasant questions regarding identification, and the meaning and also objective of life. Faith-based recuperation choices effort to provide a religious– normally Christian– point of view on addiction as well as treatment, supplying characteristics and direction that stand out from secular programs.
For people that rely on the support of a religious custom, or that are searching for a spiritual foundation for healing, faith-based recovery programs supply an environment that nurtures this aspect of therapy. Unlike secular recovery programs, which could de-emphasize the function of spirituality in order to appeal to a broader series of clients, faith-based programs are honestly structured around the values, customs, as well as trainings of a certain faith. Clients could review problems of faith as well as addiction with specialists and also peers in a risk-free, supportive environment that validates their ideas.
What Is Christian-Based Therapy Different?
The specifying feature of Christian-centered treatment alternatives is that the techniques and also techniques are based upon, or influenced by, Christian teachings. This indicates that they urge spiritual reflection as component of rehab and counseling, and make use of Christian scripture (as discovered in the Holy bible) to assist and also guide clients via detoxing, in addition to specific, group, or family members therapy. Such programs frequently utilize testimonies and also statements of Christian tenets of God's love as well as acceptance as resources of stamina as well as ideas for recuperating individuals.
The journal Drug abuse describes that faith-based drug treatment programs, owned by the Christian belief system that takes into consideration dependency to be an attempt to load a spiritual void, existing healing in the context of being "saved" by God, developing (or re-establishing) a long-lasting partnership with Him, as well as base their overall therapy tasks on a version owned by Christian faith
The Background of Faith in Recuperation
The crossway between the Christian confidence as well as drug abuse therapy returns a long way. Carl Jung, the popular Swiss psychiatrist who started the field of logical psychiatry, crafted the concepts of extraversion and introversion, psyche as well as self– concepts that have become criteria in psychology today. In addition to his work in psychiatry, Jung also researched world religions, establishing the idea that an individual's life was dependent upon spiritual health and wellbeing. [2]
Jung excited this perspective onto an alcoholic individual of his, informing the man that the only guaranteed method of defeating the condition (given that all various other techniques had actually failed) was to find a spiritual experience. That conversation at some point made its method to the ears of Expense Wilson, the guy who would integrate his hopeless desire to quit drinking with his newfound Christian confidence to develop Twelve step programs. Jung wrote to Wilson straight to explain that spiritualism was exactly what was needed to overcome alcohol addiction.
Persuaded of the performance in making use of the Christian perspective to aid alcoholics manage their impulses, Wilson instilled every degree of Alcoholics Anonymous with ideal importance. Even the renowned 12 Actions of AA derived its number from the 12 Apostles of Jesus Christ. Fifty percent of the 12 Actions discuss God (or, for the benefit of secular or agnostic members, a "greater power").
Twelve-Step programs like Twelve step programs have come under criticism and also analysis for their absence of openness and also eschewment of standard scientific techniques, however the core concepts of peer assistance, shared help, as well as liability are still supported.
Faith and Mental Health and wellness
Faith-based treatment programs are certainly not for everyone, yet they could be a practical answer for a lot of people, whether they are from a religious history or not. A 1999 research study on "Spiritual Belief as well as Spirituality in Compound Misuse Recuperation" released in the Journal of Compound Abuse Treatment found that significant degrees of spiritual idea were associated with a more hopeful outlook on life, even more viewed social support, far better defenses versus tension, and lower levels of anxiety, for people recuperating from a compound dependence.
The principle of having common support and also a network is just one of the foundations of faith-based therapy. While absolutely not unique to Christian-oriented programs, the idea of ending up being a friend of individuals learning as well as boosting with each other is mirrored in the results seen at church events. The New York Times reports on a North Carolina research study that found frequent church guests had a lot more social support, and also resulting better health and wellness, compared to individuals that did not attend church. [9] Health and wellness Physical fitness Transformation lists some other mental health and wellness advantages that are acquired from exposure to a church neighborhood:
Good influences
Encouraged responsibility and a feeling of regular
Psychological and also psychological technique
Boosted self-esteem

Faith-Based Rehabilitation Success Fees: 'Off the Charts'
Faith-based healing has been getting popularity recently, but exactly how effective is this strategy to treatment? The National Survey important Abuse Therapy Provider reported in 2008 that there were 527 faith-based rehabilitation facilities in the United States. Since the team of such treatment centers tend to be "unlicensed and nonprofessional," as the Journal of Substance Misuse Treatment kept in mind, and also treatment does not constantly follow standardized scientific approaches, there exists a scarcity of systematic empirical research into the performance of faith-based programs.
The directors of those programs concentrate less on the figures and data of their facilities' success prices and also even more on their effectiveness. Talking to The Take care of, one director declares his program is "off the graphes" successful; one more claims that both nonreligious and spiritual therapy programs think extremely extremely of his operation. A third supervisor claims 70-80 percent of the grads of his program did not relapse within the past year; as well as another pointed at a two-year, in-house research that found 48 percent of its graduates preserved their sobriety after completing their treatment.
Choose a Quality Christian Alcohol and also Medication Rehab
If you or an enjoyed one deals with the condition of dependency, substance abuse treatment could assist. Our relationship with God suffers significantly throughout substance abuse and also some addicts might require help reconnecting with their faith. Medicine rehabilitation programs that integrate biblical concepts with addiction treatment could make the distinction for individuals wanting to fix this connection

The traditional drivers of China's economy are slowing, and it is showing up in the country's employment market.
Quanton Data, a firm which focuses on structuring big data and identifying data sets that could help investors make money, has put together a database of job postings from over a hundred different job boards serving China.
The data goes back four years.
According to a September report, manufacturing job postings in the country are crashing.
"Our Manufacturing Job Posting Index continues its multi-year decline reaching a new low in August, mainly driven by continued strong downward trends in Energy and Materials postings."
Consumer staples postings have also dropped, falling in September for the seventh straight month.
The index echoes evidence elsewhere that the traditional drivers of China's economy – manufacturing and property – are slowing fast.
Alcoa on Thursday
downgraded its expectations for all but one of its major segments in the world's second-largest economy.
Caterpillar, a global bellwether for industrial investment and development, announced layoffs and a reduction in its expectations for equipment sales, citing a "a convergence of challenging marketplace conditions."
UK-based JCB, which competes with Caterpillar, said it would cut jobs after the market in China had dropped by almost half in the first six months of the year.
Here are the key findings from Quanton Data's September report.

Enumclaw, WA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 12/15/2016 -- Child rearing experts agree with parents when it comes to children and sharing. "Children have difficulty sharing, especially young children. This is a normal part of the development process. Knowing and accepting this is the first step in helping your child grow up to be a generous person," says Dr. Bill Sears of Ask Dr. Sears, an online source. Among the tips Dr. Sears shares are modeling generosity and playing games to teach sharing.
Author Lisa Hill's new release, Bluebonnet's Egg Adventure: A Down on the Farm Book (Redemption Press) falls into the modeling generosity category. With a target audience of ages three to eight, the theme of the picture book is sharing and solving problems. When Harriett the hen and Blubonnet the cow both want hay from the same box, feathers fly. Soon one of Harriett's eggs disappears. As Harriett and Bluebonnet try to solve the mystery, children are taught the importance of working together, sharing, and learning from each other.
About Lisa Hill
Lisa Hill is a native Texan who grew up with a menagerie of cows, horses, chickens, sheep, dogs, cats, and hogs in rural Arkansas and Texas. She's translated her degree in mass communications, and minor in English to this children's book with a message. Lively full-color illustrations by Michelle Puskarich, also of Texas, enhance the writing, suitable for beginning readers or to be read to younger children.

Ohio's Redistricting Fight in the Foreground Ahead of 2012
The redistricting cycle is well underway. Some states have completed their new maps. Others are in the middle of the process. A few states won't start the process until 2012. In many places, redistricting is complete, but there is a real possibility that courts or other challenges will undo or force changes to already completed maps.
One of those states is Ohio, which recently had its redistricting plans thrown into turmoil.
Ohio currently has an 18-member congressional delegation—13 Republicans and 5 Democrats. Because over the last decade Ohio's population grew at a much slower rate than the country's, it will only have 16 Representatives in the 113th congress.
Republicans control the redistricting process as they hold the governorship and control the legislature. They have enacted a law that creates a federal map that would very likely result in 12 Republicans and 4 Democrats in Congress.
But in the past week, all of this has been thrown into question. Ohio has a referendum process, by which a law can be suspended and later put to a vote if the requisite number of signatures is collected. Ohio Democrats were already using this referendum process to try to overturn a labor law change they view as anti-union.
Last week, a state supreme court ruling was issued that allowed Democrats to proceed with collecting signatures to suspend and overturn the redistricting map as well.
Here is how it would work: Within 90 days of the passage of the redistricting law, Democrats would have to collect the signatures of 6% of the voters in the 2012 gubernatorial election. If they get those signatures, the redistricting map would be suspended until it could be voted on at the November election.
This would mean that there is no redistricting map. Ohio cannot continue to use the old maps. They have two fewer representatives and the population has shifted in each of the districts. So someone will have to draw a new map.
One possibility is that a court would step in and draw the map. If that occurs, Democrats believe that they would win many more seats in Congress than under the current plan. Or Republicans could strike a deal with Democrats over a new map, which again would likely result in more Democratic representatives. Or Republicans could split off a small number of Democrats to secure a ⅔ vote of each house of the state legislature, which would head off the referendum. Some have also suggested the possibility of having all 16 representatives run statewide, but current federal law requires states to have districts.
What all of this means is that the map that looked like it was set is now in flux. The dates of the primaries may be moved, and candidates will not be sure of the shape of the districts for quite some time.
In other states, it is not so complicated, but the prospect of legal challenges to near-complete redistricting maps means that we are a long way from knowing what the final district lines will look like.

Fairy Tales
Dr. Stephen Hawking on fairy tales:
I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail. There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark.
When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.
With the inspiration of these two distinguished British scholars in hand, I offer here a brief fairy tale, which, like all great fairy tales, is even more wonderful because it is true.
A Fairy Story for Those Who Are Afraid of the Dark
Once upon a time…
The earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.
The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned.
In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God's glory displayed in the face of Christ.
But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.
And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God. It shone with the glory of God, and its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal.
The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp. The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their splendor into it.
There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light.
…and they lived happily ever after.

I love this story … my favorite in the world, making me appreciate even more any story I read or see that reminds me of this one!
Just yesterday I posted this excerpt from a nonfiction book I'd been reading:
The Bible begins and ends with creation. It opens with the words, "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth" (Gen. 1:1), and it final great vision opens with the words, "Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth" (Rev. 21:1). The trouble is that some Christians seem to have Bibles that begin at Genesis 3 and end at Revelation 20. They know all about sin from the story of the fall, and they know that God has solved the sin problem through Christ, and that they will be safe on the great day of judgment. The story of creation for them is no more than a backdrop for the story of salvation, and the Bible's grand climax speaks to them only of going to heaven when they die (even though the last chapters of the Bible say nothing about us going anywhere, but eagerly anticipate God's coming here).
But a Bible stripped of its beginning and ending will produce a concept of mission that is distorted in the same way. We will imagine that God's only concern, and therefore ours too, is to save people from sin and judgment. Now of course, there can be no doubting that the Bible gives enormous attention to that issue, and no doubt also that it must be at the heart of our mission in God's name. But it's not the whole story. It's not the whole story of the Bible, and it should not be the whole story of our mission.
— Christopher Wright, from The Mission of God's People (all boldface emphases added)
This is the ultimate tale of hope. My upcoming release, the Land of Darkness, is a fairy tale all about this hope, based around Isaiah 53 and the mysterious "bridge" that links the mortal world with the heavenly kingdom.
There's nothing more thrilling than writing fairy tales that have their roots grounded in the true tale of salvation.
That is the greatest story ever told

With millions of pounds at stake the art world has long wrestled with how to detect forgeries, from using chemical paint analysis to X-rays, infra-red examination and putting canvases under the microscope.
But one solution has been staring us in the face all this time, and it dates back hundreds of years.
Contemporary artists are increasingly turning to vellum – the prepared animal skin sometimes known as parchment on which Britain's Acts of Parliament have traditionally been printed – to insure against the risk of copies of their work being passed off as originals.
But while the use of vellum goes back to the classical age, its use to foil bogus copies of valuable paintings is the result of a very modern technique – DNA analysis.
