My first stop at SIHH was Richard Mille booth. What an amazing booth, as they had Yohan Blake walking around taking pictures with everyone. But, of course, the best part of the booth was the watches—and boy did Richard Mille deliver over the top pieces this year at SIHH!
The first is obviously the best, the $1,500,000 RM 056-1, made up of Sapphire Crystal. This was the hottest piece out of SIHH last year, with five models all sold out, so Richard decided to add another five pieces to the collection, which was a huge hit again this year. This is a special piece, and a pure collectors item, which will run you over $1,500,000 if you are lucky to be one of the five owners of this amazing piece.
The next piece was dedicated to Jamaican runner Yohan Blake, the Richard Mille RM 59-01. As we know this was a hot piece at the Olympics this year where Yohan ran with the piece, and this was a follow up from the original piece, with the traditional Jamaican colors, but instead of being mainly yellow, this is green. The piece is limited to 50, and runs around $620,000.
Another follow up with Richard Mille this year is the Nadal Richard Mille RM 27-01. This watch is truly special, and very light, weighing only 19 grams—yes, 19 grams. Again, the piece is limited to only 50 pieces, and the price point is not exact, but will run you over $500,000. This piece is a follow up from the original Richard Mille RM027, but has different features, which is very interesting. The watch is made up of ultra-light carbon case and its movement is held in total suspension in its case. It's a Tourbillon, and a personal favorite of mine, as I am a huge fan of the RM027, and a bigger fan of the RM 027-1.
The next piece was the Richard Mille RM 036 Tourbillon, G-Sensor Jean Todt. As we know, Jean Todt is a top racer, and this is a special piece for him. Only 15 units were made, and again, this is a special piece made by Richard Mille. The watch used Richard Mille's own RM036 caliber, a Tourbillon Movement, with five titanium bridges and a skeletonized base plate in carbon nano fiber.
The next watch is the Richard Mille RM 11-01 R. Mancini. Very cool watch, as it is part of the Felipe Massa family, but is designed for Soccer Coach and Legend Robert Mancini. Some of the cool features, is it tells time for a soccer game, and has another gadget to continue to tell time if the game goes to overtime. Very cool watch, and a must buy for any soccer fan, player, or coach.
The last piece is the Richard Mille RM 58-01 Tourbillon World Timer Jean Todt Limited Edition. This is the first piece made by Richard mille that is a world timer, and to add a Tourbillon to this, makes this one of the nicest World Timer pieces Haute Time has ever seen. This is truly a remarkable piece, and with all above pieces, Haute Time was blown away with the level of sophistication and innovation Richard Mille delivered this year at SIHH. Great job, as Haute Time is a huge fan personally of Richard Mille, along with his pieces for 2013.

These shoes are my new charity shop purchase. They help explain why I still put the time and effort into trawling the rails of just about every charity shop I pass.
For £6 I have acquired a shoe / trainer hybrid so wrong they're right. I hate to use the word, but this season the 'flatform' is everywhere, from Prada brothel creeper brogues to Chanel's oriental tie sandal, and these feel like a modern space age take on the trend. I also perversely love that (like all the current 'flatforms', they remind me of the Spice Girls era with Buffalo Boots aplenty, which I am sure is probably when these babies originated. The mid 90's shoe is slowly on the way back. I can feel it in my bones.

text: We study the recruitment behaviour of Swedish employers using data from a stated choice experiment. In the experiment, the employers are first asked to describe an employee who recently and voluntarily left the firm and then to choose between two hypothetical applicants to invite to a job interview or to hire as a replacement for their previous employee. The two applicants differ with respect to characteristics such as gender, age, education, work experience, ethnicity, religious beliefs, family situation, weight, and health, but otherwise have similar characteristics as the previous employee. Our results show that employers prefer not to recruit applicants who are old, non-European, Muslim, Jewish, obese, have several children, or have a history of sickness absence. We also calculate the reduction in wage costs needed to make employers indifferent between applicants with and without these characteristics, and find that wage costs would have to be reduced by up to 50 % for applicants with some characteristics.

important regulators of biological processes in animals and plants. MiRNAs regulate gene expression at the posttranscriptional level by binding to mRNAs and either inhibit translation or modify the stability of the mRNA. Due to the important biological role of miRNAs it is of great interest to study their expression level in the cells. Furthermore, miRNAs have been associated with cancer and other diseases [1] and miRNA expression can help in the diagnosis and prognostic of human disease [2,3].

Evaluation of in-house PCR for diagnosis of smear-negative pulmonary tuberculosis in Kampala, Uganda
Nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) have offered hope for rapid diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB). However, their efficiency with smear-negative samples has not been widely studied in low income settings. Here, we evaluated in-house PCR assay for diagnosis of smear-negative TB using Lowenstein-Jensen (LJ) culture as the baseline test. Two hundred and five pulmonary TB (PTB) suspects with smear-negative sputum samples, admitted on a short stay emergency ward at Mulago Hospital in Kampala, Uganda, were enrolled.

Diagnosis in most cases can be made from clinical presentation with certainty; if the clinician has a strong suspicion. Differentials include papular urticaria, chickenpox, mosquito bite etc. Rarity of cases and lack of suspicion as well as uneventful recovery are the most important causes of missing a case clinically. Though laboratory confirmation depends on direct isolation of virus in cell cultures, Indirect fluorescent assays (IFA), RT-PCR or serum neutralization techniques are also useful.

In Lyme Borreliosis, western blot is the preferred serologic test. Antigen detection tests (antigen capture and PCR), although insensitive, are very specific and are especially helpful in evaluating the seronegative patient and those still ill or relapsing after therapy. Often, these antigen detection tests are the only positive markers of Bb infection, as seronegativity has been reported to occur in as many as 30% to 50% of cases. Nevertheless, active LB can be present even if all of these tests are non-reactive! Clinical diagnosis is therefore required.

Chung and Oil Search Managing Director Peter Botten signed the venue hire agreement signifying the usage of the stadium.
"I would like to thank Oil search Limited for coming on board to assist and facilitate the use of this stadium," Chung said.

In the Illawarra Shoalhaven, three out of four suicide deaths are men. Sporting clubs are often close knit communities, and are well placed to notice when someone is struggling – particularly amongst their players, coaching staff or committee members.
In recognition of the key role they have in reducing suicide, the University of Wollongong (UOW) Bulldogs and Wollongong Lions AFL clubs are holding a mental health and suicide prevention round this weekend.
The idea started with Adam Weston, a UOW Bulldog's player, who saw the need to get more people talking about mental health and suicide, and to get support when they need it.
"We want to educate as many people as we can about mental health and suicide prevention, and keep them informed about the support networks available to them," said Adam.
"The message we want to get out there is 'How to talk to someone about any issues'. Issues are always going to come up, but we can make sure we've got the skills and confidence to talk about it," he added.
As part of the round, the club will have information about what support and resources are available. Adam and other senior members from the two clubs will also be sharing their own experience of mental health issues and suicide.
"Personally, I've dealt with some pretty extreme cases of depression and anxiety in the past, and talking about it can be tough. That's why we want people to be aware of what's available to them and be well equipped to help others who may need it."
"Moving from Albury to Wollongong for Uni in 2016 was a big deal for me, but that's something the footy club really helped with," said Adam.
"Sporting clubs are like their own type of support network; they're like family, especially here at the Doggies.
"It's a real credit to our coach, Lee, as he always says that you're never alone at this club and we feel that translates to life off the field as well," he added.
The UOW Bulldogs will rollout Question Persuade Refer (QPR) training amongst its players so they are equipped to have these conversations. QPR is a one-hour, online training which gives people the confidence to talk to a colleague, peer or family member about their suicidal thoughts and connect them with professional care.
"We're looking forward to rolling this online training out to our players, and we encourage other sporting clubs to get involved," said Adam.
Former premiership AFL player Wayne Schwass, who has also had his own battles with mental health, is now a dedicated mental health advocate.
"Mental health conditions have the potential to impact any one of us and we believe talking about this important issue is a life changing opportunity," says Wayne. "We need to create the environments for every person to have authentic and genuine conversations about mental health and emotional wellbeing".
The round took place on Saturday 25th August at Keira Oval, Wollongong.
If you or someone you know needs support now, please call Lifeline 24/7 on 13 11 14 or click here to view other support services.

Stand.earth is an environmental nonprofit whose campaigns protect rainforests, fight dirty fossil fuel projects, and stabilize our climate by addressing the destructive impacts of the logging, oil, shipping, and fashion industries. Stand's campaigns have stopped pipelines, protected more than 65 million acres of endangered forests, and secured transformative environmental commitments from Fortune 500 companies.
With support from the Pisces Foundation, Stand launched its #DirtyShips campaign to reduce GHG and black carbon emissions from the shipping industry by focusing on the cruise industry. In March, Stand achieved an important milestone for the environment and public health when Carnival announced that it is no longer using heavy fuel oil on ships traveling in the Arctic. The news came on the heels of several important campaign moments, including the release of Stand's report exposing poor air quality aboard Carnival ships, rivaling cities such as Beijing and Santiago.

(Source: CBC.ca) – "Price made a season-high 38 saves, including 17 in the opening period, to post his second shutout in the last three games as the Canadiens downed the visiting Blues 3-0 on Tuesday night. Montreal extended its club-record winning streak to start the season to seven games."
Look, a 7-0 record is a nice thing. It's nice to read, a 7 and a 0 next to each other are real sharp. But I have one question for Montreal; what took so long?
The Habs have been around since 1909. "Rocket" Richard, Guy Lafleur, Patrick Roy all lead the way in different eras. They have won 24 Stanley Cups, and if you are in breathing distance of a Canadiens fan they'll tell you it's the greatest sports franchise of all-time. But it took 100+ years to go 7-0? Really? So back when there were only 6 teams in the NHL, and the Canadiens had first pick of the top French Canadian player every year (one year they had the first three picks in the 1st round), they couldn't start a season even 5-0? If I were Canadiens fans I'd be very concerned.
The was I see it, it's been nearly a quarter century since the Canadiens have won a Stanley Cup. In their century-plus existence they've never won a Stanley Cup when starting the season 7-0. All signs are pointing to a first-round playoff exit and there's nothing anyone can do to stop it.

High-quality light-weight sleeping bag with wool filling for an optimal sleeping climate in hot summer nights and in warm spring and fall nights. The Biopod Plus from Grüezi-Bag combines the benefits of down and synthetic fibre. Excellent climate, good insulation, insensitive to moisture – and it is super light and has a small pack size. Due to its breathable wool filling the Biopod Plus can store an enormous amount of air, which has a cooling effect in hot temperatures and a warming effect in cool temperatures.
The new high-quality filling provides similar insulation to down, but it is not as sensitive to moisture and provides insulation even if it is damp. In addition, wool has the advantage of having an antibacterial effect, of being very elastic and durable and of keeping its shape. Plenty of features have been added: due to the new position of the zipper, you can easily stick your feet out of the sleeping bag at the bottom, and when it gets cold, you have a closed foot box. There also is a new pillow pocket. You just put a fleece jacket into it and you have a comfortable pillow.
Biopod Plus – made from nature: the ideal companion in the mountain lodge, in the tent, for trekking, bike trips and hiking or in the motor home.

January 12 of 12: Normal Tuesday
When thinking about a theme for this month I wanted something simple. I thought about doing the 50mm "Normal" day again, or the macro theme. When I checked back to last year's January 12 of 12 I discover that had been the "Normal" theme, so I decided to make it a January theme and once again do a "Normal" day. This is simply photos shot with a 50mm lens on a the D700 (full frame 35mm) for that normal view.
Thanks again to Chad Darnell for creating the 12 of 12 Project, and to Sonny & Sandy of the Podcacher Podcast for pushing myself and the Geocaching community to participate in the 12 of 12.

Many old-time big game hunters will remember some outstanding deer hunts in Colorado and will tell tales around a campfire of when monster bucks roamed the landscape.
For decades, hunters took the abundant deer population for granted. Licenses could be purchased over the counter and in many areas, hunters could purchase an additional license to harvest more than one deer in a given season.
During the 1990s, the Division of Wildlife (DOW) realized that Colorado's deer population was in trouble. A series of hard winters resulted in low fawn survival and the entire statewide deer population was impacted. In addition to overall population concerns, the buck-doe ratio began to decline.
In 1999, with the support of hunters, the DOW dramatically limited the number of available deer licenses. As a result, the number of deer hunters in Colorado dropped from an average of 185,000 per year in the 1980s and early '90s to approximately 90,000 per year from 1999 to 2006. In 2006, approximately 45,000 deer were harvested by hunters.
The relatively mild winters recently and the switch to limited licenses are two significant factors that are bringing Colorado's mule deer population numbers back. Beyond the population rebound, the quality of the herd is also improving. More bucks are now growing to trophy size. From a low of 10 bucks to every 100 does in some units, mule deer in western Colorado are now experiencing buck-doe ratios closer to 40-to-100 in some areas.
While deer licenses will probably never return to over-the-counter unlimited status in Colorado, more limited licenses are available, reflecting the increase in population numbers. The deer population was estimated to be about 620,000 in 2006.
There are two species of deer in Colorado - mule deer with their rope-like tails, evenly forked antlers and large ears; and whitetail deer with smaller ears, antlers with a single main beam bearing smaller tines and the characteristic broad white tail. Mule deer run with a stiff-legged gait with the tail held down while whitetails move with a graceful lope, the flag-like tail held erect.
Both species of deer are four-to-six feet long and stand three feet or higher at the shoulder. Large bucks can weigh over 400 pounds, but does are only half that size. Bucks begin to grow antlers in spring. They are used in a clash for dominance and breeding rites in autumn. Antlers are then shed in the winter.
Deer are browsers, feeding mostly on woody vegetation, including twigs and leaves of shrubs and trees. They also forage on crops, especially corn. Because they eat very little grass, they tend not to compete seriously with livestock or elk.
Deer breed from October to December. After a gestation period of 6 months, spotted young (usually twins) are born.
Mule deer are abundant statewide. Whitetails have become increasingly common in streamside woodland and nearby crop lands along the rivers of the eastern plains.
Mule deer, like elk, generally move from higher slopes to lower elevations during the winter. Even a small amount of snow will get mule deer moving out of high-altitude areas. Usually by mid-October, migrating herds will move to winter-range areas. In general, they are active at night, dawn and dusk. As winter approaches, they will become more active during daylight hours.
In warm weather, mule deer can be found along ridgelines. They often use those areas because wind is consistent along ridges and can help keep them cool. During the low-light hours of evening and morning, they can be found in meadows at the edge of thick cover. If it can be determined where mule deer are feeding during low-light conditions, it is likely they will move into nearby timbered areas to rest for part of the day. They also tend to move during the middle of the day toward the areas where they feed in the evening.
Mule deer have an excellent sense of smell, so if the wind is blowing in the direction you are hunting, chances are the animals will pick up your scent and move. Deer go to creeks at night to drink, so there is no advantage to hunting near water sources during the day.
One advantage mule deer give hunters is their curiosity. When mule deer are spooked, they will often run a short distance then turn to determine if they are being pursued.
On the plains, whitetails spend most of their time in the river and creek bottoms, taking protection in stands of cottonwood trees and the thick brush of riparian areas. At dusk, they will move out of those areas to feed on the grasslands and in farmers' fields.
Whitetails are harder to hunt than mule deer because they will not stop once they start running to flee danger. Hunting whitetails requires slow, patient stalks along the edges of riparian areas.
Private property provides most of the good whitetail hunting areas in Colorado, so hunters must get permission from landowners.
With two combined deer and elk rifle seasons remaining, hunters who drew deer licenses can look forward to a greater chance of seeing more deer, perhaps even some of the monster bucks of yesteryear.

When trade is at stake, it is your last entrenchment; you must defend it, or perish...Sir, Spain knows the consequence of a war in America; whoever gains, it must prove fatal to her...is this any longer a nation?
Is this any longer an English Parliament, if with more ships in your harbours than in all the navies of Europe; with above two millions of people in your American colonies, you will bear to hear of the expediency of receiving from Spain an insecure, unsatisfactory, dishonourable Convention?

It were ingratitude to him to say that he did not give such a reverberation to our stagnating councils, as exceedingly altered the appearance of our fortune.
He warded off the evil hour that seemed approaching, he infused vigour into our arms, he taught the nation to speak again as England used to speak to foreign powers...Pitt, on entering upon administration, had found the nation at the lowest ebb in point of power and reputation...France, who meant to be feared, was feared heartily...They were willing to trust that France would be so good as to ruin us by inches.
Pitt had roused us from this ignoble lethargy...The admirers of Mr Pitt extol the reverberation he gave to our councils, the despondence he banished, the spirit he infused, the conquests he made, the security he affixed to our trade and plantations, the humiliation of France, the glory of Britain carried under his administration to a pitch at which it never had arrived—and all this is exactly true.

Cabin: Economy
Route: Rome to Edinburgh
Aircraft: A320
Spanish low cost carrier Vueling commenced service in 2004 and has grown to today be Spain's second largest airline. The airline serves over 100 destinations around Europe, the UK , Middle East and Africa utilizing a fleet of A319/320/321 aircraft.
Perhaps best known for its poor on time performance and delays rather than its value for money, I was not surprised to at first be delayed 40 minutes. We did however made up time in the air and arrived as scheduled.
Check in service at Rome was excellent – very efficient and plenty of staff which is a rarity these days. Upon boarding and until after takeoff 'easy listening' music is played which adds a bit of a nice touch but if you wanted to start snoozing before take off you might find this irritating.
Seat and Amenities
The aircraft on this flight would have to be one of the oldest and the thick seats were a tell tale of this. In a time where the seats are getting thinner to allow more leg room, this flight had comfort but limited legroom. The seat back pocket has a metal rod in it which dug in to my knees when the seat in front reclined so for someone tall, this would have been very uncomfortable.
No blankets, pillow or amenities provided.
Customer service on board
Service was efficient and what you would expect from a crew operating a buy on board meal service.
All food and drinks are buy on board and selections may vary on different routes Currency accepted (notes): euros, pounds sterling, US dollars and Danish kroner. Only euro coins will be accepted. Change will be given in euros. Credit cards also accepted.
Inflight entertainment
No in flight entertainment but there is an on board magazine
Extra information
Overall, a fairly non remarkable, standard flight on a low cost carrier. I would certainly have no hesitation to fly them again and if you get a good fare they are certainly great value for money.
As with any low cost carrier ensure you read the fine print, pre purchase checked baggage, make sure your carry on luggage fits the dimensions they state and keep it to weight.

Annual Juried Exhibition
Earthborn is an annual, juried exhibition of works by members of the Waterloo Potters' Workshop. Every year the workshop hosts this event and invites a distinguished potter/artist to act as judge and make selections for prizes and the pieces to be included in the official Earthborn exhibition. Members work on special pieces and set aside remarkable pots from their work, hoping to be selected. Past jurors have included Angelo di Petta, Marc Egan, Steve Irvine, Bill Reddick and Scott Barnim.
Members get together for an evening of critique by the guest juror who also indicates which pieces have made it into show. But the prize winners are not announced until the Earthborn exhibition opening. All of our members are invited to participate and the public is invited to view the exhibition. Prizes are awarded for artistic pieces and production works, for new and our expert potters. It's a great opportunity to see the best works and range that our members are capable of.

September is a great racing month for so many reasons! Weather wise, it's cooler than August. Even with shorter days, the sun still rises early enough so you don't have to arrive at bag check in the dark! The seasons are changing, the leaves are falling, and the sun is still shining. When I first looked at all the races I wanted to run in September, I was so overwhelmed. I didn't believe I could do three races in a row without completing losing my mind and failing to give myself ample recovery time from each race.
I started off the summer by just registering for two races two weeks apart-one one miler and one half marathon. The races were different enough that I didn't feel like my training for either would be counterproductive to the other. I continued with my weekly speed runs and long runs on the weekend. Depending on how I felt each week, I'd throw in another tempo run or do an easier run.
However, after the first two races finally came and went, I suffered from a severe case of Runner's High and went for the third-a ten miler. Since I had just run a half, I wasn't concerned about the mileage and I knew my endurance was there. I spent the week after my half practicing yoga, icing my shin splits, and foam rolling. I cross-trained for most of the week and only went on one run to limit impact. I knew I could bust out another race if I was careful with my body.
Approaching mile 10 at the New Balance Bronx 10 Mile, I was overjoyed. Crossing that finish line was like crossing the finish line for every single race all in one. It was tough, but it was amazing and I'm glad I ran the third race. Can you say three-peat?
After the race, I went straight to lunch to refuel. I can never eat much at post race festivals due to my allergies and intolerances. Once I was full of energy (and food), my recovery regimen started right away. I attended a restorative yoga class, drank loads of water, and continued with the ice where needed.
My next race isn't for another 3 weeks, and I'm happy about that. I definitely need to take this time to recover from all the excitement of racing. Below are my tips for managing a busy race calendar!
Vary Your Distances
I'm sure that if I had run 3 half marathons in a row, I wouldn't even have the energy to write much less continue training for another race! By running a one mile sprint, a half marathon, and lastly, a 10 miler, I was able to race confidently without too much fatigue. I've only been running on a consistent basis for a year. Even though it feels like longer, I have to tell myself sometimes that I can't overdo it because my body might not be as attuned to the mileage as I believe. I learned this the hard way when one of my toes swelled up during my second half marathon and didn't go down for a month. Yes, an entire month! Training is all about knowing how to work smart and conserve your resources so you don't burn out.
Give Each Race a Unique Purpose
Part of the reason why I really wanted to run all three races was because each one offered a new and unique experience. I ran the 5th Ave Mile because I love sprinting and wanted to see how fast I could really go. The Rock and Roll Philly Half took me on a 13.1 mile victory lap in a city I lived in for years. Before the Bronx 10 miler, I had only been to Yankee Stadium once. Running in unfamiliar territory can be just as fun as running on familiar grounds. Since every race had a reason to be on my calendar, I was driven to find a way to fit in all 3.
Skip Runs If Necessary
I'm usually a stickler for my training plan, but I've made adjustments given that the past few weeks have been really demanding on my body. I've temporarily paused on speed workouts since my shins are still bothering me. I did a lot of speed work leading into my first half, so I know that it still counts. Following a race, my legs are usually very tired, so I'll scale back a bit if needed. While this does mean I might skip a few runs or run shorter distances altogether, I have to remember that I've spent months building a strong base and it's more important to make sure I recover well than overextend myself.
In all, September was fantastic. It was hard, but sometimes hard is good. They say if it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you, and I run to be inspired.

When I started working and building my career in real estate, hell, even when I was in college, there was always this talk about women pushing their careers and fighting for equality in the workplace. There were women's groups and women's networking events to help us get our foot in the door.
I envisioned myself being seen as a capable, smart and reliable professional. I would be able to prove myself and be respected in the field of my choice.
Now, nearly 10 years later, it's time to talk about the reality.
Statistics about women at work
- More women are graduating college than ever. Now more women than men.
- 47% of the US workforce are women.
- Women are not well represented at the executive level of business.
On one hand, I think women dominate in roles that fit the qualities of a "stereotypical woman," such as caretaker, support staff, beauty and talent positions. This is why women are seen in roles such as: secretary, teachers, beauty bloggers, nurses, paralegal, and fashion assistants in an overwhelmingly disproportionate amount to men.
But does that result in equality? When we are given a majority of supporting roles? We're still not the decision makers or shot callers in a majority of these industries.
But, what about jobs that are equally men/women or dominantly men?
From my own experience, we're not faring so well. I work in real estate and it's a mans world out here.
Yet, when I was told at my job that a man would take the position of manager, a position I was never even considered for, I was relieved. Let it not be a woman, I thought.
My previous manager was a woman and if you haven't had a chance to read all the horrible things she did to me and put me through, you can do so through my post, I Survived A Toxic Manager.
I felt that way because, throughout my whole career in Real Estate, I've rarely had another women help me. I've also never felt like I was in a position to help other women, though I still tried. I don't know why but there was always this underlying level of competition with other women. A type of, "If I'm not on top, then she'll be" mentality.
And that's kind of how we differ from men. Men are capable of building camaraderie upon meeting each other. They help eachother out. They see other men in the workplace and see opportunity rather than competition.
My she-devil manager used to make all types of requests to Upper Management. "Let's get an extra pair of keys," "Let's get an intern for summer season," "Let's get a shred-box so client information will be better protected." Nope. Never happened under her. But as soon as my male manager made the same requests to our male directors, it was like "why didn't we think of this sooner, done." It was like night and day, how the two managers worked.
She would come up with detailed, fact based reports for her suggestions, Upper Management would usually critique the work or diminish it with other reports they had access to. My male manager slaps together a report with half the effort, no one says a word.
In some ways I understood why my previous manager was so horrible. She had to develop a really callous attitude in order to get as far as she did.
But how much farther would women get if we supported each-other? When she left I asked her to recommend me for one of the opening positions. She replied, "I've just never seen you in that type of role." Not even a NO, just some type of passive comment to absolve her of why she couldn't recommend me.
C'mon, as women we can do better.
Don't believe me? The same story played out in public between two female Rappers. Rap and hip hop in general is a male dominated genre.
The brawl that recently happened between Nicki Minaj and Cardi B occurred over perceived slights from Nicki trying to keep Cardi out of opportunities. I know, I know, the whole story is absolutely ridiculous. But think about it…if women at the top of a male dominated industry are pushing each other down in public, what are women doing to each other in private, behind closed doors?
We really need to do better.
Men are generally automatically assumed to be capable. Women need to prove it.
When we hired our Intern, A, our receptionist, B, had just gotten her real estate license. All she needed was to be sponsored by a brokerage and she could start showing apartments.
I mentioned the possibility of our company sponsoring B to my Asst. Director, she brought it up to her male superiors, who passed. There just wasn't a position available. (A position would eventually open up later, but it was quickly filled by another male "admin" who could show apartments).
In the meantime, our new male manager F was allowing our male intern A to tour his clients unlicensed.
I wish I could do more for B, it's essentially just as much of a dead-end job for her as it is for me, but we need our receptionist. F could really care less if she grows professionally, he needs her in her current role.
It's messed up because I'm not in a place to make a difference in her career, though I'd like to, and the person who is doesn't care.
I watched the match where Serena Williams was yelling at the umpire. It's crazy that the match ended over that and she lost for confronting what she thought was an unfair call. Men in tennis have admitted they have done worst in matches with no reprimand. Shit like that gets me. Like if Serena Williams, an all time great of tennis, can't get equal treatment on the courts, how can any of us ordinary folk even stand a chance? Apparently bad behavior from male tennis players isn't as serious as female tennis players.
There's no doubt that women are still falling behind in treatment in the workplace. But I wish we could change:
1. The fact that women are against each other in environments where we need to stick together and lift each other up.
2. That women aren't being treated as capable or assumed as capable as men.
3. Women are being penalized for infractions at work or in sports that men aren't penalized for. (Ex, Joe can take 3 cigarettes breaks while Mary gets scolded if she's more than 10 minutes late.)
We'd like to think that women have gone farther than this or even that $.90 for every $1.00 is worth more than it is. But it's not. I encourage everyone reading to think about their own assumptions at the workplace. Enough people making preferences about their gender or opposite gender can create an environment of sexism at work. It's never just one person. So I my recommendation is start with change of mind and change of thought to keep sexist assumptions and behavior out of the workplace.

Ozzy Osbourne to make farewell stop at 'Klipsch'
The roster of highly anticipated 2018 concerts includes Harry Styles, the Eagles, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, Niall Horan, "Weird Al" Yankovic and Steve Aoki. David Lindquist / IndyStar
Indiana will have one last chance to see Ozzy Osbourne live on stage as the rocker announced the remaining dates of his farewell tour in North America.
According to ozzy.com, the No More Tours 2 tour will hit "Klipsch Music Center" in Noblesville at 7:30 p.m. Sept 23.
We all make mistakes, even at the age of 69. As Ozzy celebrates five decades as "The Prince of Darkness," he should get a pass for not catching the name change to Ruoff Home Mortgage Music Center.
Tickets go on sale for the show also featuring Stone Sour at 10 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 17, according to Live Nation.

Red H Nutrition is committed to providing premium supplements to athletes of all backgrounds, ages and ability levels, who understand the importance of high quality, effective supplementation.
Our goal is to improve your overall health and lifestyle through wellness promotion and positivity.
I was so sick of the Supplement Industry.
It is a carnivorous system that fosters those who want to take a "shortcut" in the name of profits.
I was sick and tired of spending all kinds of money on sh*t products that have fancy labels that look "badass".
I was REALLY sick of the customer service … or lack thereof.
So, naturally I decided that "if you don't like something, change it".
Basically, that's the genesis of Red H Nutrition.
I'll leave out a lot of the story, but the specifics are:
I am an Army Veteran, served as a Military Intelligence Officer, Airborne, wanted to be a police officer but found that fitness was a more rewarding career and opportunity to change peoples' lives. I have a Bachelor's in Psychology and a Master's Degree in Exercise Science. I spent 7 years as a competitive CrossFitter, qualifying for Regionals as an individual 5 times.
I simply wanted to start a Supplement Company that believed in transparency, had integrity and made products that worked. I know, I know. That's what they all say.
So, all Red H Nutrition products carry a 30 Day PR Guarantee. It's a Customer Service belief that if you don't score a new PR within 30 days of starting your Red H Nutrition products, you can have your money back.
The REAL big reason Red H is different, is defining our products by the 10 General Physical Skills and their application.
The 10 General Physical Skills are the HOLY GRAIL of fitness DNA.
I know they are important and improving the 10 General Physical Skills will help you do better in The Open. It will help you reach Regionals. It will help you reach The Games. These are all FACTS.
Check it out, has your Supplementation System ever been so easy to understand?
I've got your back.
I know functional fitness and its demands.
I know what it's like to work your tail off.
That hard work should pay off.
If you trust Red H Nutrition with your hard work, we will take good care of you.
But, don't just take my word for it, check our online reviews.
You'll see Red H Nutrition exists to serve every athlete.
If you're open minded enough to try a brand that actually cares enough to write a true, personal "About Us" page, then I'm ready to help you reach your goals!

|Head Coach
|Second Season
|Previous College:
|Lebanon Valley '95
Mike Rhoades was named the 12th head coach in VCU history on March 21, 2017. It's Rhoades' second go-around with the Rams. As an assistant and associate head coach with VCU from 2009-14, he helped the Rams kick off an unprecedented run of seven straight NCAA Tournament appearances. He's already set the Rams on a course to reach greater heights.
In just his second season, Rhoades led the Rams back to the NCAA Tournament, as well as their first Atlantic 10 Conference outright regular season championship. VCU's 25 total wins and 16 conference wins tied program regular-season marks. For his efforts, he was named Atlantic 10 Conference Coach of the Year, Richmond Times-Dispatch State Coach of the Year, as well as a finalist for the Jim Phelan National Coach of the Year award. In two seasons, three Rams have been named to All-Atlantic 10 Conference Teams, including first team selections Marcus Evans and Justin Tillman.
Rhoades' debut campaign as VCU head coach in 2017-18 produced 18 wins and the program's 18th consecutive winning season. Under his tutelage, Tillman blossomed into a First Team All-Atlantic 10 Conference performer. Tillman also captured All-District honors, as well as the Richmond Times-Dispatch's State College Player of the Year award.
Prior to returning to Richmond, Rhoades engineered a stunning turnaround at Rice. As head coach of the Owls from 2014-17, Rhoades led Rice to its first 20-win campaign since 2003-04 and the program's first postseason appearance since 2011-12. Rice's 23-12 mark in 2016-17 was an 11-win improvement over the 2015-16 season and the 23 wins were the second-most in Owls history. Rice advanced to the second round of the College Basketball Invitational.
Rhoades assumed the reigns at Rice in 2014-15 and led the school to an immediate five-win improvement. The Owls were a combined 12-49 in the two seasons prior to his arrival.
An astute eye for talent, Rhoades recruited Conference USA Rookie of the Year and 2016-17 First Team selection Evans, a Chesapeake, Va., native and landed Arizona State transfer Egor Koulechov, who ranked fifth in C-USA in scoring in 2016-17, two players who helped spark Rice's dramatic turnaround.
In 15 seasons as a collegiate head coach, Rhoades has produced a 287-151 record, a winning percentage of .656.
Rhoades' ties to Central Virginia date back 20 years, including his five seasons at VCU. Rhoades was integral in recruiting and developing the players that would lead the Rams to a historic Final Four appearance in 2010-11. During his tenure, VCU reached the NCAA Tournament four times and appeared in the postseason all five years. The Rams were 137-46 during that period and won the 2012 CAA Championship.
As a Ram, Rhoades recruited and molded elite-level talent. He played a pivotal role in the signing and development of future NBA players Briante Weber, Treveon Graham and Troy Daniels during his stint on Broad Street, and numerous others have enjoyed successful professional careers overseas.
In 2012, after VCU toppled Wichita State in the First Round of the NCAA Tournament, Rhoades was named one of the top 10 assistant coaches under 40 in the country by ESPN.com.
Prior to his VCU tenure, Rhoades enjoyed a wildly successful run at Division III Randolph-Macon in Ashland, Va. In 10 seasons as head coach of the Yellow Jackets, Rhoades compiled a 197-76 record (.722 win percentage) and led RMC to four NCAA Tournament appearances, including trips to the Sweet 16 in 2002 and 2003.
Rhoades' teams won six Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) championships and earned national No. 1 rankings in two seasons. He was named ODAC Coach of the Year in three straight seasons from 2001-03, coached three ODAC Players of the Year, five ODAC Freshmen of the Year, as well as 17 First and Second Team All-ODAC selections. In 2003, he was named NABC South District Coach of the Year and State Coach of the Year by the Richmond Times-Dispatch. He began his coaching career at age 23 as an assistant at Randolph-Macon in 1996 under long-time head coach Hal Nunnally. The Yellow Jackets posted winning records in all three seasons with Rhoades on staff before he was elevated to head coach in 1999 at age 25.
Rhoades played collegiately under coaches Pat Flannery and Brad McAlester at Lebanon Valley College in his home state of Pennsylvania, and led his squad to a 66-59 overtime win over NYU in the 1994 NCAA Division III National Championship Game. The entire team was inducted into the school's Athletic Hall of Fame in October 2014, the 20th anniversary of the title.
The guard was named USA Today D-III National Player of the Year in 1995 and twice earned All-America honors. He graduated with a degree in history in 1995. He left as the school's all-time scoring leader and still holds Lebanon Valley records in free-throw percentage (.845), assists (668) and steals (212). His No. 5 jersey was later retired.
Rhoades also earned his masters from VCU's Center for Sport Leadership in 2002.
The Mahanoy City, Pa. native and his wife Jodie have two sons, Logan, and Chase, and one daughter, Porter.

Harleyville, S.C. (WCIV) — Beidler Forest sits just off Interstate 26 in Harleyville. It's the world's largest virgin cypress-tupelo swamp.
"You'd swear you were in some tropical rain forest or in some jungle in the Pacific," said the forest's land manager Mark Musselman. "It's hard to imagine that's you're spitting distance from paved roads."
Musselman is in charge of every inch of all 18,000 acres of Four Holes Swamp.
"It's 60 miles, and it drops 30 feet. It's really winding," he said.
His place is to survey it all in five years, and that's exactly what he was doing when he stumbled upon a piece of history swallowed up by the swamp.
"In this particular area, I was looking at what hogs had done damage-wise," he recalled. "This is about a 100 x 300 foot donut hole on my map, so I was going to walk through it."
That's when he spotted it—the tail section of a 1950s military jet.
"I walked up on it, and it looked like the tail of an airplane. I thought, of course that couldn't be what it was."
But, it was.
The wreckage of a United States Air Force reconnaissance plane crash.
It crashed in January of 1957 and the remnants are still visible more than 60 years later.
"A lot of it has been buried by decades of leaf litter and floods washing stuff over so there are more pieces than you see," said Musselman.
The tire, the front landing gear, and the plane's tail section are now a fixture of the Beidler Forest.
Musselman said there were rumors before his time as land manager about a plane crash in the forest, but no confirmation until he stumbled upon the wreckage last year.
Then, he got to work using his background in history and the military to solve the mystery.
"Obviously by the insignia it's a United States Air Force aircraft," he said. "It's pretty weathered, so I didn't know what time frame it was from."
He called Joint Base Charleston to get records of nearby crashes, but he said they came back empty-handed at first.
"As a supply officer, I knew if you lost anything, a canteen, you had to take it off your inventory," he said. "If you lost a huge jet, they definitely took it off the inventory."
He went back to the drawing board and back to the plane pieces to search for clues.
"From the piece of the tail that exists they have a buzz number," he said. "From what was on the aircraft I could tell two out of the three numbers. There were two aircraft (on a list of RF-84s) that had 89 something. One was 897 and one was 895. What's left of the third number definitely wasn't a seven and it looked like it could have been a five."
By the end of the day the Air Force found the crash report.
The plane took off from Shaw Air Force Base, approximately 8 miles from Sumter, S.C.
Two of the RF-84s were approximately 29 minutes into their flight when metal fatigue caused the fan to fall apart and the engine to no longer work.
The pilot was John West, an exchange pilot from the British Royal Air Force.
He survived the crash by ejecting and landed in the top of a tall pine tree near Highway 27.
"He said the worst part of his experience was getting out of the swamp on the back of a tractor because he thought the farmer was driving pretty erratically," Musselman said.
The plane flew itself for four miles and crashed in the Beidler Forest.
The wings were sheared off, scattering smaller pieces throughout the swamp. Musselman said there is about a 100-yard debris field.
The Air Force hauled off some of the debris in 1957 and left the rest for Musselman to find.
Not soon enough, though.
West died in 2008, leaving Musselman with some regrets.
"It's unfortunate because I could've found it in 2008, and that would have been neat to be able to show him at least some pictures of where his aircraft ended up after he departed it," he said.
West's son is still alive, and Musselman hopes that one day he can show him the wreckage of the plane his father flew.

Professor of Geography, Mr. Francis Adesina, from Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun State, has identified climate change as one of the greatest challenges facing agriculture in the developing countries, especially Nigeria. He made the statement while delivering a lecture on the topic, 'Some Thoughts on Climate Change, Agriculture,' at the British American Tobacco Nigeria Foundation (BATNF) Implementing Partners workshop. He noted that the impact of climate change is felt most on "exposed systems, "which he said include rain-fed agriculture. Adesina traced the genesis of global warming to 1880, noting that successive years since the 19th Century have been hotter, with 2015 being the hottest year. He regretted that Nigeria and other developing countries are most susceptible to the harsh effects of climate change due to poor water storage system, which he said has grave implication for agriculture. "Considering the very high consumption of rice in Nigeria, nowadays, if you must control climate change, one of the crops you need to control is rice because of its high water demand," he said, while emphasizing the need for farmers to be climate smart. He noted further that climate change signs are evident and cited the example of the absence of an August break in 2015. Earlier in his address, a BATNF Technical Committee member, Prof Chidi Ibe, reiterated the…Read more

Am really glad to see that the government of Nigeria has created a climate change department. This shows that we are starting to realise that its an important issue affecting all aspects of our lives.
It will interest you that a lot of farmers have being able to develop indigenous adaptive measures to climate change despite the fact that a lot of local farmers have never heard of the word "climate change".
There is need to create climate change awareness amongst local farmers across the north.

Women's H2O to Host MPSF Tourney
First, the women of the UC Irvine women's water polo team beat No. 10 Arizona State. Then, they beat No. 8 UC Santa Barbara. And, for the first time ever, they became ranked in the top-10 nationally.
On Saturday afternoon, the seventh ranked Anteaters (17-12, 6-6) faced the prospect of losing an important home match against the much lower-ranked CSU Northridge Matadors (12-19, 1-11), but were able to fend them off for a 12-8 win.
Four minutes and 53 seconds into the third quarter, Northridge's Heather Van Hermet put up a point for the Matadors. For a harried 30 seconds of counterattack, the Matadors forged a tie with UCI 5-5.
'Today was kind of a rough day,' said freshman UCI goalie Megan Braun. 'It wasn't a great performance, but we ended up winning. We definitely won by a lot but not in the style we would have liked.'
Saturday's performance against Northridge should have been a cakewalk, but instead created stress where there should have been domination.
'The good thing is … we kept playing,' Braun said. 'We didn't get frustrated [or] shut down mentally.'
Braun attributed the Anteater problems to 'mistakes on defense.' 'We picked it up in the second half and ended up throwing out a win,' she said. 'But with our conference tournament coming up it would have just been better … to show our dominance in the home pool.'
Goalkeeper Lauren Machanis served as one of the backbones of the Anteater team. She made 10 saves in Saturday's game, maintaining a defensive stand with a weakened Anteater defense.
The game was the last in the regular season before the MPSF tournament, which UCI will host. The UCI women are seeded sixth in the tournament with their best regular season ever.
Anteater Head Coach Dan Klatt is largely responsible for the team's strong performances this year.
'I wouldn't say Dan's a slave driver,' Braun said. 'He's definitely … a big proponent of conditioning. He definitely expects a lot of us and I think that's good because … I think we're well-prepared going into the game.'
Junior utility Robyn Kaake scored a personal record of five goals during the game.
With the end of the regular season, the MPSF tournament looms over the Anteater women's team. Saturday's performance was a warning: If 12th-seeded CSUN can challenge UCI's defense (and thus take UCI's momentum), then the Anteaters will need to be extra careful when facing high-rollers such as UCLA.
In UCI's favor is their incredible persistence. In Friday's game, for instance, the team was barely edged out 9-8 in quadruple overtime by No. 5 Loyola Marymount.
At the same time, however, matches against top-seeded USC and UCLA have been disastrous. Despite the efforts of the Anteater team, they will be heavy underdogs in a potential match against either team in the tournament.
However, after their March 31 match at USC, the Anteaters reassessed their game. Since then, their record has only bloomed.
As the Anteaters progress, their main strength will consist of solid team, rather than individual, play, hopefully giving the team a strong team dynamic.
Freshman two-meter Gianna Rassi serves as a strong center on a team with an offensive weak point. Klatt hopes to develop the team's two-meter game in order to develop a two-fold threat.
UCI will take on USCB Thursday at 12:30 p.m. in the first round of the MPSF tournament at the Anteater Aquatics Complex.
