The Calm Before the Storm
In the days leading up to the students' arrival, the on-site staff members at St. Michael's College are waiting with much anticipation and excitement...
The world is quiet here at St. Michael's College -- yet, nevertheless, filled with much anticipation in the days approaching the official start of Middlebury Interactive's Chinese and French Language Academies.
From meetings to presentations: the staff has busily been devoting their time to the official commencement of the Academy. Amidst these meetings and presentations, however, all of the staff -- the teachers, RA's, nurses, and administrative workers -- have still found time to introduce themselves, explore the campus, and partake in a multitude of fun and engaging icebreaker activities.
Amongst all the excitement, the Summer Site Manager -- Rabia Mairech -- took time out of her day to sit down for an interview on the value, importance, and necessity of learning foreign languages in today's modern world.
Ms. Mairech is entering her fourth year of experience with Middlebury Interactive. In addition to English, she speaks Spanish, Arabic, and French. Outside of the Academy, she works as a high school teacher for French and Spanish; also, she is an adjunct professor at several universities for Arabic.
When posed with the question of -- "What is the value in learning foreign languages?" -- Ms. Mairech responded by first citing the integral lesson of communication that it teaches students. According to her, languages have the power to "connect the learner to cultures all over the world."
To further the concept of cultural connectedness, she noted that languages, also, put the learner more closely in touch with his/her home. Foreign language enclaves are found all over the United States -- and because of that, knowing another language enables an individual to become part of these rich cultures, and everything that surrounds them.
Ms. Mairech also spoke of the horizons that are opened through learning another language. Foreign languages, according to her, are: "Doors to the rest of the world." And once these doors are opened, the opportunities are endless.
She then spoke on the necessity of learning languages by saying, that, "The more languages we know, the more cultures we know, then the better the world becomes."
In the interview, Ms. Mairech was also asked to articulate on the importance of having a full-immersion experience within a foreign language.
In essence, she said that it all comes down to "being forced to use the language." According to her, typical classroom settings are crucial to learning languages, but they possess one large drawback: once out of the classroom, the students are no longer using the language.
Immersion programs -- like Middlebury Interactive's Summer Academies -- give students the unequivocally unique chance to simulate life in a foreign country, while still living within the United States.
Ms. Mairech also took time to speak about the progress students undergo while at the Academy. The ultimate goal, she said, is to have kids with "zero knowledge" be able to communicate effectively, easily speak about themselves, and have the ability to survive in a foreign country by the end of the four-week program. With that being said, she noted that, "I've seen many, many students go way beyond that expectation."
At the end of the interview, Ms. Mairech was posed with the question of: "What is the most valuable lesson students take away from the academy?"
Without hesitation, she responded saying, "Not to be afraid." When asked to elaborate, she said that the academy gives the students a chance to break through any worries or fears that may hold them back -- both on a personal and academic level.
Lastly, Ms. Mairech stated that, "We're here to support the kids in advancing their language skills -- but also, socially, we're here for them to grow."
Ms. Mairech and her passion for languages and student personal growth is but one example of the many influential staff members here at St. Michael's College for the Chinese and French Academies.
The next four weeks are bound to be engaging, intellectually-challenging, but above all -- fun!
Everyone is beyond excited for the arrival of students on Tuesday!

What Is Paraphrasing and The Reasons That Call for It?
You might have heard people asking for paraphrase my paper. Paraphrasing is about describing the same idea in different words. When a text is paraphrased, the resulting content conveys the same message, but words are not the same. There are different reasons for paraphrasing. The most important and common is to avoid plagiarism. In scientific papers, people have to cite the work of other researchers, but they cannot copy the content exactly and need to paraphrase it.
Secondly, when people want to publish their content online on different websites, they need to paraphrase it. Posting the same content on different webpages is not acceptable for different reasons.
Thirdly, some content is copyrighted and if you need to publish it for some reason, paraphrasing is required. Moreover, sometimes the original text is very difficult and long, to make it easily understandable and precise we paraphrase it. These are just a few reasons, they can be many others too, depending on the situation.
Some people prefer to paraphrase on their own, some other use paraphrasing tools and some go for the services, who can rewrite essay online. Everyone has different preferences, but the important thing is to paraphrase correctly, according to the nature of the content.
2 Main Features of APA Format
APA format is considered as the most popular format for writing academic papers. So, when it comes to paraphrasing APA paraphrasing is preferred. APA style has some key features, which make it different from the other formatting styles. For instance, in APA style, page numbers start from the title page, double spaced is used between lines and paragraphs are an indent. You can use APA paraphrasing service and the experts can take care of all the APA paraphrasing requirements. If we talk about two distinctive features of APA format, they can be
- The style of citation in the text and in list

You can find paraphrasing APA tool, which can paraphrase your content, but the accuracy of such tools is not guaranteed.
The Complete Guide on APA Paraphrasing
APA paraphrasing is not easy. You need to take care of very minute details. You can see an APA paraphrasing example for guidance. Here is the complete guide for APA paraphrasing, which can help you to paraphrase properly.
When you are paraphrasing APA in text citation, you need to use the last name of the author and the year of publication inside the parentheses. It can be used at the end of a sentence or at the beginning, according to the structure of the sentence.
Now a day, a lot of information is quoted from different web pages. If you want to cite a webpage, you need to start with the last name of the author and the initial letter of the first name. Then you will write the year, month and date in the parentheses. In the end, the title of the article will be mentioned.
When you need to cite a direct quote, the last name of the author, year of publication and page number of the original text will be mentioned inside the parentheses. If it's from a website and there is no page number, you need to mention the number of paragraphs.
If there are two authors, the last names of both and the year of publication will be mentioned in parentheses. The same will go to the six authors. For more than six authors, the name of the first author will be mentioned and et.al will be used with it.
Useful Tips for Paraphrasing
As mentioned earlier paraphrasing in APA style is not easy. If you want to paraphrase on your own, the following few tips can help you.
- Change the voice. Usually, the text is written in an active voice. You can change the voice from active to passive or vice versa. It will change the sentence structure and content will be different from the original.
- Use synonyms. Replace the main words with synonyms. You can use a dictionary or thesaurus for this purpose.
- Merge sentences. You can merge two or three small sentences into a single sentence. It will help in effective paraphrasing.
- Change the order. You can start your sentence where it ends in the original text. Writing the last part of the sentence first is a good paraphrasing technique.
- Use quotation marks. Whenever you have to quote the exact words, use quotation marks. Otherwise, it will be considered plagiarism.
Why Should You Come to The Service for Paraphrasing?
How to use paraphrasing in APA is a common question. Because paraphrasing seems easy but actually it's not. That is the reason, the majority of people prefer to hire professional services.

Appealing an individual disability insurance denial
As one of our California readers with individual disability insurance coverage, you hope you never have to make a claim. If you find that you do, it means you have been disabled and are now looking into your options for collecting benefits.
Since you pay for coverage, month in and month out, you expect the benefits to be available in the event that you are disabled. Unfortunately, insurance companies don't always want to pay out on claims.
There is nothing simple about dealing with a denied individual disability claim. Not only are you faced with your disability and how it is changing your life, but you now have to square off against your insurance company in an attempt to get the benefits you deserve.
If you were wrongfully denied, the first thing you have to do is file an appeal. Until you do this, there is no way of knowing if the insurance company will change its mind. In some cases, an appeal is all that it takes to get your insurer to realize that they made a mistake and that you are entitled to benefits.
The appeal process can be complicated, thanks in large part to the fact that you have to provide a detailed written response. Your goal is to provide the information required by your insurer, as well as anything else, including medical and legal issues, which will improve your chance of receiving benefits.
Nobody wants to deal with a denied claim, but insurance companies don't always make things easy. If you need to learn more about your rights and how to file an appeal, our website is full of helpful advice.

This past weekend we got to go on an adventure with Zack to The Fort in Fort Smith, AR. The history there is amazing. It's one of our favorite places to explore. You can tour the building, there are beautiful walkways and a park right on the river.
I love those relaxing, carefree days of adventure with the family. They are the best.
We also went to gymnastics where I unknowingly went with my pants inside out. We went to church and learned about church history which was very informative and interesting.
One of the most exciting parts of the week was signing up for co op and classes. The girls each get three classes. Elli chose social studies, earth science, and incredible edibles. Aubi chose PE, earth science, and incredible edibles. Isaac will be with the preschool class and Ollie will be with me except for the hour that I'll be assisting in the preschool room.
I found out that they will also be having pictures taken like school pictures. How cute is that?!
Taylor kid updates-
The girls are doing great with school. Aubrey's reading her sight words and mathing like a pro. Elli is progressing and doing great too – her favorite subject is American history.
Ollie is a wild little thing. He has a tremendous amount of energy. He's not quite as snuggly as Aubi and Isaac were but he is very generous with his kisses, at least where momma is concerned.
And Isaac has been telling me he loves me all the time and you really cannot hear that too much. Every time makes my heart leap for joy.
Tomorrow we are going back to the tea shop to have a tea party with our pastor's wife and daughter. The girls have been wanting to go with them for weeks and the excitement in the house is brimming over.
This week I've been doing some Fall cleaning. Fall cleaning is for those who are extra cleanly and all the moms who missed the mark on Spring cleaning. I fall into the latter category. Slowly but surely order is coming to our household again.
Hello, order! Goodbye, chaos!
Maybe a routine will be next?! I hope so!

I slightly turn my head and give him that usual, you always have a way of surprising me and making me laugh look.

It was the perfect start to the morning and I welcome it on a daily basis. It's the first time I've ever been inclined to say: Sex in the morning, the best thank you, you're welcome start of the day.

Major opportunities are opening up in the UK and Europe for contracting IT professionals with know-how about the Internet of Things (IoT), professional services company Procorre has revealed.
In fact, Procorre is warning that demand from businesses for contracting consultants who can advise on IoT matters is growing so rapidly that there is a danger of it outstripping supply in the coming months.More and more organisations beyond the technology sector are adopting or planning to adopt IoT strategies, driving an unprecedented demand for skilled consultants capable of managing the transition.
IoT technology enables devices to connect to and communicate with other devices, applications and users via the Internet. IoT-enabled devices have burgeoned, currently outnumbering the global human population by a factor of 15:1. Data harvested from these connections is changing the way that business is conducted. According to research by the McKinsey Global Institute, IoT technology is on course to achieve a global economic impact of US $11 trillion per annum by 2025.
Procorre's Head of Relationship Management, Wiktor Podgorski, said: "The IoT boom has already seen the growth of 'Head of IoT' roles in some tech companies. This is now spreading into other sectors and we are experiencing strong demand for contractors with a mix of expertise in sensor software and hardware, data management, analysis and delivery. There is also a growing requirement for individuals who can perform a critical role managing the relationship between IT teams and boardrooms in organisations that are just beginning to see the opportunities IoT can offer them."
Analysis of the IoT contractor consultant market across Europe reveals a strong growth in its numbers in the UK, a trend which is mirrored in Italy and France. These three countries account for more than half of the European consultant market. Elsewhere on the continent, however, the numbers are comparatively small.
Podgorski warned of a short-term shortage of IoT consultants in Europe beyond its core markets. He encouraged Umbrella Company techies and other contracting IT pros to seize the "massive opportunity" presented by forward-looking businesses as they embrace IoT by acquiring the key skill areas needed.
Procorre has found that demand for data security specialists is growing especially strongly, a finding in line with a Harvard Business Review survey, which found that 46 per cent of early IoT adopters have faced security compliance issues. In fact, the biggest barriers to IoT adoption faced by businesses today reside precisely in the area of privacy and data protection. This follows a series of high-profile security issues related to IoT technology and is currently driving strong demand for IT contractors who can bring cyber security expertise to IoT strategies.

When Dwight and Steven Hammond left federal prison Tuesday, it was in large part thanks to a Portland attorney who was politically and culturally their opposite.
Larry Matasar, 68, is a political progressive who volunteered on Barack Obama's 2008 campaign. He's a self-described child of the '60s and rock aficionado who has attended more than 100 Bruce Springsteen shows. He's an urban creature from Chicago's South Side.
"It's a long, long way from Burns," he said in reference to the Eastern Oregon town nearest the Hammonds' remote 12,000-acre ranch.
Yet Matasar has represented the family for 25 years and connected with them personally. It was Matasar who represented the father and son in the controversial arson case that made them unwitting heroes in the anti-government land rights movement.
"Everything about them rings true, the way they interact with one another, with their children," Matasar said. "They're good people. I'm glad I got to know them."
Matasar was also part of the legal team that petitioned the White House to commute the Hammonds' sentences. On Tuesday, he was thrilled when President Donald Trump instead granted them full pardons.
"Trump gave them more than they asked for," said Margaret Love, a former pardons lawyer in the George H.W. Bush and Clinton administrations who was hired by the Hammonds. "It was unexpected, to say the least."
In a case that inspired the 41-day occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge by armed protesters, the Hammonds were sent to prison for five years -- the mandatory minimum -- after they'd already served the sentences imposed by U.S. District Judge Michael Hogan. The now-retired judge found the sentencing guideline excessive and refused to follow it.
But the local U.S. Attorney's Office, then led by Amanda Marshall, appealed. And the government got its five-year sentences. The Hammonds reported back to prison in early January 2016. The same day, Ammon Bundy led the occupation.
The Hammonds found a high-profile supporter in U.S. Rep. Greg Walden of Hood River. The conservative Republican took to the floor of the U.S. Capitol to protest the Hammonds' treatment on the day they were returned to prison.
Matasar and Walden then started working to get the White House interested.
Two decades of mounting ill will between the Hammonds and federal government over how best to manage their adjacent rangeland erupted into something far more serious in June 2010. Federal prosecutors charged the ranchers with multiple counts of arson, conspiracy and other charges.
Dwight Hammond set a prescribed burn on about 300 acres of his own land that then traveled onto Bureau of Land Management property and burned an additional 139 acres. He said he was trying to fend off invasive species. But prosecutors argued the fire was designed to cover up illegal deer poaching and got out of control. Marshall said the federal pursuit of the Hammonds followed years of permit violations and unauthorized fires.
Prosecutors chose to file a specific type of arson under a 1996 statute passed by Congress in the wake of the Oklahoma City bombing. The Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act gave law enforcement and federal lawyers a panoply of new tools to fight terrorism, including a new five-year mandatory minimum sentence for arson.
Even Frank Papagni, the federal prosecutor in the case, was uncomfortable with the severity of the sentence required.
"Perhaps the best argument, judge, the defendants have in this case is the proportionality of what they did to what their sentence is," Papagni said at the sentencing hearing. "Perhaps that's the most troubling for the court. It is for the prosecutor who tried the case. That being said, I have done my job as I see it."
Hogan stunned just about everyone when he refused to impose the five-year sentence, deeming it a violation of the Eighth Amendment ban on cruel and unusual punishment.
Instead, Hogan sentenced Dwight Hammond to three months and Steven Hammond to a year in prison. They had done their time and were back at their ranch living their lives when the case came back to haunt them. In 2014, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reversed the sentence and sent it back to Oregon. In October 2015, U.S. District Court Judge Ann Aiken said she lacked the discretion to vary from the five-year sentences.
On Jan. 4, 2016, the Hammonds reported back to prison.
Walden took to the floor of the Capitol to blast the sentencing. "I have seen the impact of federal policies from the Clinton administration to the Obama administration," he said. "I have seen what happens when overzealous bureaucrats and agencies go beyond the law and clamp down on people."
A heartsick Matasar was nearly out of options. He resorted to the ultimate "Hail Mary" maneuver in the criminal defense world -- he asked the White House to intervene and commute Steven Hammond's sentence.
Kendra Matthews, another Portland lawyer, filed a similar request for Dwight Hammond.
The Oregon Farm Bureau, the Oregon Cattleman's Association and two local sheriffs wrote letters of support.
But Democrats were leery of the case. The Bundy occupation made the case too hot to handle, said Barry Bushue, head of the Oregon Farm Bureau. "It became hyper-political," Bushue said. "It set back the Hammonds' cause."
Matasar went to Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Oregon, to plead the Hammonds' case. Merkley declined to get involved.
And though his administration spent considerable time and political capital working on sentencing reform and ultimately commuted the sentences of some 1,700 drug offenders, the Obama administration also had no appetite for the Hammond case.
But the political landscape changed in November 2016 when Trump was elected.
Suddenly, the Hammonds had an ally in the White House.
Still, Matasar said he had little hope until last Aug. 17. That was the day Trump pardoned controversial Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio, who's been convicted of criminal contempt over his hard-line tactics with undocumented immigrants. After a "life's work of protecting the public from the scourges of crime and illegal immigration, Trump said, the 85-year-old Arpaio deserved a pardon.
On June 27, Walden again brought the case to the floor of the House. "It's time for the president to review this situation and to grant a pardon to Steven and Dwight Hammond, pull them back together with their families," Walden said. "They have served long enough."
By that time, Steven Hammond had spent four years in prison.
Whether Walden's remarks proved the final impetus is unclear. But early Tuesday, Walden called Susie Hammond, Dwight's wife, waking her out of a deep sleep. "He said it's a done deal, the papers were signed,'' she said. "We've been waiting a long time. I think it's wonderful.''
Environmental and public lands groups have a much darker view of both the Hammonds and of Trump's pardon.
Jennifer Rokala, executive director of the Center for Western Priorities, told The Oregonian/OregonLive that the pardons sent a "dangerous message" to America's park rangers, wildland firefighters and public land managers.
"President Trump, at the urging of Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke, has once again sided with lawless extremists who believe that public land does not belong to all Americans,'' she said.
"Trump's pardon abandons human decency and will encourage more violence and extremism among his base," said Kieran Suckling, executive director of the Center for Biological Diversity.
The White House had a different take: "The Hammonds are devoted family men, respected contributors to their local community and have widespread support from their neighbors, local law enforcement and farmers and ranchers across the West. Justice is overdue for Dwight and Steven Hammond, both of whom are entirely deserving of these Grants of Executive Clemency.''
Matasar heard the news from reporters Tuesday morning. About six hours later, the Hammonds, now 76 and 49 years old, walked out of a federal prison in California.

Majority of the money u make goes straight to monthly bills (phone, electricity, cable, car, internet, insurance, credit card etc.). And mind u this na when u dey work ohh.... So u can now imaging being here illegally and no source of income :(
At least in Naija, u dont even get to think of most of these bills n stuff. But when u tell people back home, im go be like say u no want make dem progress. So that's why we are now seeing a lot of this whole deportation thing going on now in the US and UK.
At the end of the Day, our Govt is to be blamed for all this mess.....and the one wey dey even pain me pass na when i hear say dem deport Nigerians from Ghana.....LIKE SERIOUSLY???!!!
But damn can u imaging being deported back to Naija?...wetin u go tell ur friends?...HA HA HA.....Well the good part about it be say u get to travel back to ur homeland for free....and free plane food too :)

Londoners 'are worst at packing'
Londoners are the least organised holiday packers, according to a survey.
Those in the capital tend to leave packing to the last minute, the poll by www.travelsupermarket.com found.
Also, more than two in five London travellers have to buy something on holiday as they forgot to pack it.
As many as 67% of Londoners begin packing two days or less before departure, while those in the east of England were second only to travellers in the capital for being disorganised packers.
The best packers appear to be those in the north-east of England, with only 35% of them having to buy "forgotten" items overseas and only 42% - easily the lowest figure nationally - leaving packing to the last two days.
On average, 39% of holidaymakers in England, Scotland and Wales forget items when packing and 60% start loading up their cases two days or less before departure.
The most-forgotten item is suncream, followed by a toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo and sunglasses.
Travelsupermarket travel expert Bob Atkinson said: "It seems that Britain is a nation of preoccupied packers - leaving things until the last minute and forgetting the basics."
A total of 2,011 adults were surveyed.

UGI Partners with Parkland High School for Energy Efficiency and Savings
10 Dec 2012
Reading, PA (December 10, 2012, 4:00 p.m.) – UGI Utilities, Inc., joined representatives of Parkland High School today and congratulated the school on its conversion from fuel oil to natural gas to heat its facility. Parkland's conversion will save the school district and its taxpayers more than $350,000 per year.
"This is a project with a long history, and we at UGI are pleased to complete it," said Robert Stoyko, Vice president of Customer Relations at UGI. "Thanks in part to the extension of natural gas to GEO Specialty Chemicals (GEO) in late 2012, the possibility of Parkland experiencing the savings, reliability and efficiency natural gas has to offer has become a reality."
Original discussions with Parkland School District to extend service to the high school began nearly a decade ago. However, UGI gas mains were too far from the school to make the conversion economically viable. With the extension to GEO's facility, service to Parkland High School became economically feasible.
Construction of the Parkland natural gas line commenced on July 7, 2012 and was completed on August 28, 2012, in time for the start of the 2012/13 school year. The project involved installation of 5,200 feet of 8-inch gas main and a large investment of UGI manpower and equipment to ensure early completion.
"We are pleased to have this infrastructure in place for Parkland especially now, as the cost of natural gas is approximately 40 percent lower than it was four years ago," explained Stoyko. "On behalf of UGI Utilities, we'd like to offer our gratitude to all of those involved in this project from start to finish, including those who made this extension possible, especially Parkland School District and GEO Specialty Chemicals."
UGI's Gas Division has headquarters in Reading, Pennsylvania and serves more than 348,000 customers in 15 southeastern Pennsylvania counties, including customers in and around Allentown, Bethlehem, Easton, Hazleton, Harrisburg, Lancaster and Reading.

State's pension law facing rough road
From the list of things that should surprise absolutely no one comes word of a federal lawsuit being filed against the Legislature- and governor-approved changes to the state pension system.
An equally unguarded secret is that this lawsuit will not be the first. The changes approved in December in light of Illinois' massive pension funding burden drew the immediate ire of unions, which vowed to fight against it.
The lawsuit was filed in circuit court in Cook County, but it won't linger there long. This will become a matter for the state Supreme Court.
What will have to be decided is whether Senate Bill 1 violates the state constitution ban on reduction of pension benefits. In this case, the question is dealing with teachers, administrators and education retirees. Eventually, expect that all five of the state's public pension systems will go before a judge.
Gov. Pat Quinn and supporters of the reform are certain it will stand up to judicial scrutiny.
Their confidence may be short-lived.
Something has to be done about the underfunding of the state's pension system and the potential to bury taxpayers for decades to come. Still, the language used to protect pensions and reaffirmed in the case Jorgenson v. Blagojevich — ironically used by House Speaker Michael Madigan and Senate President John Cullerton when they sued the governor for stopping payment to legislators who had not met a deadline on pension reform — is clear.
It seems as though legislative leadership would like the law to mean what they want it to mean, even if that changes from case to case.
The law, fortunately, does not work like that.
Nor does it work on emotion, which the lawsuit slides into in saying "countless families across Illinois (rely on the existing pension guidelines) to plan careers, retirements and financial futures."
If emotions were enough to sway judges, there would be millions of people lining the courtrooms asking for money back from taxes or from losses on their 401(k)s.
But there is no emotion in the guarantee constitutional framers put into place: "Membership in any pension or retirement system of the state, any unit of local government or school district, or any agency or instrumentality thereof, shall be an enforceable contractual relationship, the benefits of which shall not be diminished or impaired."
There is also little ambiguity.
The pension issue is arguably the biggest concern facing Illinois right now and any step toward resolution is important.
But state leaders should recognize the at-best tenuous nature of the existing reform plan and be working on an alternative in the event the courts don't see things their way.

If you're looking for connecting AirPort Express to any router for making an AirPlay 2 streaming target, then this post is for you. Just you have to follow the steps carefully.
We all know that accessing the internet a while ago was a cumbersome task that means the requirement was to stick to a desktop computer, connected to a short but expensive Ethernet cable. And everyone did not afford to get a modem that had to be further connected to a landline-based phone system. But, time has changed so as with tool, technologies, and our modern way of internet accessing. The ubiquitous presence of today's wireless internet has drastically changed the overall scenario and tremendously streamlined the overall cumbersome process. We should thankful to the extraordinary devices like Apple AirPort Express that has made it possible.
AirPort Express is compatible with all of the well-known types of Wi-Fi, such as 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n along with the compatibility with both Mac and Windows operating systems. In terms of security, you can set this device to use WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) or WPA2, 40-bit or 128-bit Wireless Security (WEP) as well as MAC address filtering. You just need to connect AirPort to the respective direct subscriber line or DSL, your Ethernet network, or cable modem. The result is you'll get the wireless internet access facility for up to 10 users. Next, you have to plug it into your printer via the available USB cable and voila! Any of these ten users become able to take print outs absolutely wirelessly. The Mac users will get the built-in Bonjour capabilities that mean network-connected users could easily find out each other and start sharing images, videos, or any other type of data.
The iTunes capabilities of AirPort Express are another major key to the selling point of this device. By plugging 3.5mm audio mini jack of AirPort Express into any speakers all around the house will enable you to stream music – both in analog or digital format and in a wireless manner to those speakers right from the iTunes library on the respective laptop or desktop computer. In case you're an owner of a handheld Apple device like an iPhone or iPod Touch, you could be able to remotely control iTunes as well as play music on demand without even leaving your favorite couch.
Don't want to be attached to the desk with a long Ethernet cable when you're in a hotel room? The simple solution is to start using the AirPort Express device and thus you could fill your room with a fast and secure wireless internet. From now onwards, you can sit in the tub and continue surfing. On the other hand, if a distant room of your huge house has been suffering from the issue of the weak wireless signal, it's time to start using an AirPort device within the range of the respective base station. It will amplify your wireless signal and make it speedier a lot.
It's really wonderful to have a lot of features and functionalities in just a device of 3.7 inches high, 2.9 inches wide and 1.1 inches thick. Owing to the small size, users can easily carry this device into their side pocket or their svelte laptop carrying case. Apple's AirPort Express device works in many ways for streamlining the process of internet access. The extraordinary device of Apple's AirPort Express not only creates a wireless Internet access everywhere but it also enables its users to stream all types of multimedia contents to different types of devices. Also, it's capable of extending the range of a present wireless network. It's also possible to make use of the AirPort device for adding wireless connectivity to any of your devices like your gaming console, featured with an Ethernet port but not having its own wireless card.
And that's the reason why users stick to AirPort Express whereas it has not been undergone any sort of development for many years and moreover, Apple has discontinued it recently. The good news is that the latest firmware update enables the users to use this device with the latest AirPlay 2. So, it's time to experience your device with the minimum amount of annoyance. You just have to convert your AirPort Express device into a client from a Wi-Fi router that means you're going to stop your Macs and iOS to connect with it for accessing the internet but you're effectively making it a Wi-Fi adaptor.
It's true that a large number of devices are nowadays coming with their built-in Wi-Fi adaptors but many of the games consoles, printers, and sound systems still don't come with this feature. Until these devices have the feature of a USB or Ethernet port, it's possible to provide them with the facility of 802.11n Wi-Fi for which the users need to plug them into their AirPort Express. But, one drawback is still there. Once your AirPort Express has been set up in this way, you can't use it as a router. So, it makes no sense of doing it if still you're relying on your AirPort Express device as your Wi-Fi router. But, a small tip here is that if you're still doing the same, you need to upgrade for sure.
It's important to know that AirPort Express still makes use of the 802.11n standard. On the contrary, modern routers are using 802.11ac. If you don't want to dig deeper into the offerings of these two standards, it's critical to remember that 802.11n users get 15 percent less speed than 802.11ac users. If you still want to stick to your 802.11n AirPort Express, then you should learn the art of what you can do with a spare AirPort Express device.
Choose Your Device:
It's true that today we are not in need of taking printouts like early days but we have not completely got rid of printers yet. So, if you still have a USB one, you can now plug it into your AirPort Express. And in this way, all of the devices in your place start printing out wirelessly to it. When it comes to printing task, we hardly measure the time period but it doesn't mean we want it to get slow but a few seconds of delay is acceptable. In terms of audio, the AirPort Express units are still compatible with AirPlay 2.
Initiate Your Engine:
In this segment, you need to plug in the AirPort Express device and wait for its booting. After starting its running, you should connect your printers, your speakers, or both of them into your AirPort Express and then it would be the time to launching the AirPort Utility on your Mac. But, if you already have a configured AirPort Express device, then it would show up on this particular map. Just make sure that it holds the latest firmware. What you have to do is to check the dot next to the name and if it's green, then you're good to go. But, if it's yellow, then you are not having the latest firmware but don't worry at all! An "Update" button is there to make changes.
Whenever you have completed the installation process of the latest firmware, you can then take your AirPort Express back to basics. Just you have to select it and then go to the "Base Station" menu and choose "Restore Default Settings." Next, you have to click on "Other Wi-Fi Devices." Although it looks like a button, it's actually a drop-down menu with the listing of all the AirPort-compatible devices that the utility could find out either on Ethernet or Wi-Fi. Now, it would be the time to choose the "Base Station" and let Utility collects information regarding it.
After getting it done, you will get a screen that would include an "Other Option" button at the bottom left side. Just you ought to click on that and you'll get options like creating a new network or about replacing an existing device. You'll also come across another option, named "Add to an existing network". Select this option and click "Next." Now, choose your Wi-Fi router and then enter the password if instructed and voila! The process is completed. Congratulations! Your non-Wi-Fi-enabled device or speakers are now on the respective Wi-Fi network. And guess what's more? These devices are now on your network and as you have the latest firmware installed, they would be immediately capable of taking benefit from AirPlay 2 without any other actions from your part.
Where to purchase an AirPort Express?
It's true that the supplies of AirPort Express are diminishing, but buyers can still purchase an AirPort Express Base Station at Adorama with the investment of $95 with the free shipping facility. Moreover, no tax will be collected on orders that will be shipped outside of New York as well as New Jersey. If you have any other question regarding Apple Airport Express Setup, then you can contact their customer care service.

Carlos Tevez made his long-awaited comeback with Boca Juniors in a friendly against Argentinian second division side Aldosivi on Wednesday and was satisfied with his performance.
The veteran forward returned to his home club for a third spell last week after one year playing for Chinese Super League side Shanghai Shenhua.
Tevez, who started and was on the pitch for 72 minutes, played a part in his team's opener before being denied by the woodwork. The score was tied at 2-2 after 90 minutes and Boca ended up losing 4-2 on penalties in Mar del Plata.
"I had to face this situation and I did the best I could," Tevez said as reported in Ole. "I hadn't played for a long time. I felt comfortable and well. I'm grateful to everyone for being able to experience again the feeling of wearing the Boca jersey."
Carlos Tevez volvió a ponerse la camiseta de #Boca: https://t.co/lyosKZJUyS pic.twitter.com/J6dRPmkIOu— TyC Sports (@TyCSports) January 18, 2018
The 33-year-old had not played since Nov. 4 in Shanghai Shenhua's 4-1 win at Liaoning in the Chinese Super League.
Tevez said the support he has received in Argentina is helping him get back to his best.
"It's important and it gives me confidence," he said. "I'm eager to be in top form and give the best so that people can enjoy my performances. I leave happy with my performance."
Tevez endured a disappointing spell in China where he scored four goals and set up five more in 16 league appearances for Shenhua and recently described his time there as a "seven-month holiday."
The former Manchester United striker terminated his contract with Shenhua, with whom he had one year left on his deal.
Tevez played for Boca from 2001 to 2004 before embarking on a successful career in the Premier League and in Serie A.
He returned to his boyhood club in 2015 and scored 25 goals in 56 games before leaving for China.
Boca head into Sunday's Summer Tournament game against bitter cross-town rivals River Plate in Mar del Plata on the back of two straight defeats.
The Xeinezes lost 3-2 to Godoy Cruz last Sunday before falling to Aldovisi. Boca, who are three points clear of San Lorenzo at the top of the Super Liga standings, resume their league campaign at home to Colon on Jan. 28.
"These are summer games and we can't get used to losing," Tevez said after Wednesday's loss. "Aldovisi had two shots on target and scored both. We need to come out of this situation as soon as possible and be calm. It's always an extra motivation to face River. We need to leave this result behind and prepare the next game."

I've heard of a lot of different ideas and programs to help curb violent crimes, but the one being proposed in Cook County, Illinois has got to be in the top ten of most ridiculous ideas I've ever heard of.
Cook County is home to the Obamas, the city of Chicago and a mayor who once served as one of Obama's closest aides on Capitol Hill, Rahm Emmanuel. It is also home of a rising homicide rate. Last year at this time, Chicago reported 324 homicides. At the same time this year, they have reached 409 homicides and some officials are trying to find ways to change the trend.
Toni Preckwinkle, Cook County Board President is proposing a budget that will include a five cent tax on every bullet and a twenty-five dollar tax on every gun purchased in the county. She believes that this will help reduce the rate of homicides and violent crimes and help raise nearly a $1 million in revenue each year. The revenue will be used in part for a variety of county services including the cost of medical care for victims of gunshots. She tried to explain and justify her proposal by saying:
"We think that's an appropriate thing to do, especially in the light of the gun violence we struggle to deal with in our criminal justice system and our public health system. The legal gun shops in suburban Cook County are a conduit for crimes in Chicago. There's no way around it."
When I read this, my first question is how many of the homicides and other violent crimes committed by legally purchased guns versus illegally obtained guns? A large part of the violence in Chicago and Cook County is gang related and I'm sure that every gang member follows all of the firearm laws in legally obtaining their weapons of choice. Yeah sure!
This makes as much sense as placing a tax on all computers because some people use them to steal identities and a myriad of sexual perversions including preying on young children. The only thing that makes sense of her proposal is that it is designed to be a revenue source to help pay for their $100 million a year deficit.
Evidently, I'm not the only one who sees Preckwinkle's proposal as being completely idiotic and ineffective in preventing gun violence. Richard Pearson, the executive director of the Illinois State Rifle Association shares my views when he said:
"If she wants to get to the people causing all the problems she ought to put a tax on street gangs. All this is going to do is drive business out of Cook County, into other counties, Indiana and Wisconsin."
Gun store owners also believe the proposal will not help prevent crime, but will have a negative impact on his business. Fred Luger, who owns Freddie Bear Sport in Cook County said:
"Who's going to come to Tinley Park to buy ammunition. Why should (we) be paying for gang bangers shooting each other? You're taxing law-abiding citizens for what criminals are doing."
Pearson, Luger and others are already talking about filing lawsuits to challenge the ammo and gun tax if it is adopted and put into practice. Preckwinkle has already said that she expects lawsuits, but feels that a tax will stand up in court. If it does make it to court, I hope the judge laughs her right out the door.

Mackie makes QPR's point at Sheff Wed – Report
Sunday, 13th Aug 2017 18:31 by Clive Whittingham
QPR's promising start to the 2017/18 season continued at Hillsborough on Saturday with a 1-1 draw that could easily have been a win against promotion-favourites Sheffield Wednesday.
One week and three matches into a nine-month slog, Queens Park Rangers look pretty good.
That's all it is, and all they do, and the nature of football in the Championship, and at QPR in particular, means this could all have turned completely to shit in less than a fortnight by which time Rangers will have played four more games. But given where expectations were just a week ago, the hysterical reaction to a lack of transfer activity, the keenness to use pre-season results as a prophecy of doom, and the near disastrous end to last season it is worth mentioning: QPR, at the moment, look half decent.
Half decent in attack, where Ian Holloway has bravely abandoned the idea that Matt Smith must lead the line, and all the ineffective long ball rubbish his presence encourages the team to play, and instead gone with Conor Washington and Jamie Mackie, two players completely written off by many before a ball was kicked. After Washington's match-winning brace against Reading on day one, it was Mackie's turn to open his account for the season at Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday, sliding calmly underneath Keiren Westwood in the home goal at the midway point of the first half after being played through by the game's outstanding player Luke Freeman. Freeman himself had struck a low shot straight at Westwood just before this after Pawel Wszolek's enterprising wing play.
The decision to extend Mackie's contract by 12 months after an injury-hampered second stint at the club attracted plenty of criticism, but he's exactly the sort of 'marginal gain' a club in QPR financial circumstances need to be trying to make rather than constantly looking for exciting, shiny, new toys elsewhere. Get him fit and keep him there, use him where he can be effective, and you've got a big boost to your team for free. So key to tearing up the emperor's new clothes in the Reading game last week, here he finished calmly to give his team a deserved first half lead.
Half decent in defence too, where a back three system has worked nicely so far and only conceded one goal in two league games. Rangers were rightly quick to abandon it when their second string got pulled apart by Northampton early doors in Tuesday night's cup game sparking fears the Reading domination may have been a one off but despite that, despite James Perch being pressed into action more centrally, despite the ongoing absence of Steven Caulker and Grant Hall, the system not only held up well here, it actually looked quite effective. It seems to suit (and here's some more famous last words in a report full of them) Joel Lynch who played very steadily in the left-sided centre back spot. Jake Bidwell, another like Lynch who ended last season abysmally, also played nicely at left-wing back. Wszolek was excellent both going forwards and tracking back at right wing-back. Josh Scowen, bar one horrible attempted cross where he kicked his own feet out from under him, seems ideal for the deep-lying midfield role in front of them.
It did wobble and crack pretty quickly at the start of the second half. Trailing by a single goal in their first home match, you always thought Wednesday would have a ten-minute pleasure window after half time when they'd come on strong and push for an equaliser with the crowd behind them. Survive without conceding and Rangers were probably most of the way to victory, the restless home crowd might have helped them along, but Nedum Onuoha's swing and miss at Barry Bannan's low cross allowed Sam Winnall, brought in from the cold by manager Carlos Carvalhal after a period where he wasn't even making the bench, to finish powerfully seven minutes after the break. Winnall's recall, and Forestieri's removal from the squad altogether, apparently the result of a training ground bust up between the two during the week.
Another centre from the same side moments later was inexplicably headed over from point blank range by Jordan Rhodes whose dream £8m move to the club he supports just isn't working out as he'd hoped at the moment. Smithies saved at his near post to deny Bannan, Wednesday asked for handball against Lynch when he blocked a back post header from Hooper but it never was.
Onuoha made a really bad mistake from a free kick against Reading last week and was rescued by an outstanding save from Alex Smithies. He got himself out of trouble with a recovering tackle when he did something similar against Northampton in the week and here he wasn't so lucky. It's odd, because three basic errors in poor areas that could easily have resulted in three goals conceded have nevertheless coincided with him playing quite well in general – I thought he was fine for the other 89 minutes here, but he won't need telling about the goal, or how poor the timing of it was in the context of the game.
Wednesday spotted a flaw with the new zonal marking system at corners as well – queueing players up in the back post 'zone' against one player – but Daniel Pudil's downward header after being left totally unmarked in the thirteenth minute bounced into the ground, up and wide. Reach skewed a sitter wide from 15 yards before half time and they had very good cause to believe they should have had a penalty when Rhodes angled another set piece header back across goal and Hooper hit the deck at the back post under heavy contact from Bidwell just as he seemed set to tap in from close range but between them referee Chris Kavanagh and assistant referee Sian Massey Ellis said no. Massey won few friends in the side stand with a series of marginal calls in the second half as well - with all the usual levels of witty banter going her way that you'd expect.
And more than half decent, very good indeed in fact, in midfield where Luke Freeman has continued his excellent form of last season into the new campaign and the arrival of the tireless, nuggety Scowen has freed Massimo Luongo up to move further forward to good effect. While Wednesday looked a bit of a mess through the middle - clearly missing Kieran Lee, unable to get Bannan far enough forward to influence proceedings and starving Ross Wallace of any ball at all – QPR's three were able to dictate play and look really good doing it. Hard to believe this is essentially the same group of players that just a few months back spent an afternoon at Bristol City planting one long ball after another square onto the forehead of Aiden Flint.
Whether that was enough for Rangers to deserve to win the game isn't really a debate with any purpose. It wasn't, despite Pudil and Westwood clashing and sending the ball loose after Freeman had a shot saved, but it should have been. Five minutes from time an excellent move from left to right starting with Wszolek feeding Washington early and him in turn laying the perfect ball into the path of Kazenga Lua Lua, signed on loan from Brighton on Friday and on late for Jamie Mackie in attack, who seemed to think too much and try to be too clever with a reasonably simple finish as Westwood advanced quickly and stuck a gilt-edged opportunity wide.
Ironic really that it was one of the signings QPR were apparently crying out for who'd done that – Lua Lua doesn't play any of the positions in the current system that's working so well, is only on loan, has a poor injury record, didn't do too much to impress when here last season and is another body in front of the likes of Ebere Eze and particularly Ilias Chair whose exploits against Northampton I felt warranted another bench place here. It's a gratuitous, unnecessary signing in many ways and the miss was another item of evidence on a strong day for the prosecution case that QPR aren't so beset by problems that a whole clutch of new arrivals is required, nor will the problems they do have necessarily be solved by more signings. As is the case more often than not, the QPR squad list on the back of the programme was significantly longer than their opposition.
Not only is it very early days but the two teams we've played so far, despite their high league placings last year and, in Wednesday's case, expectation for even more this campaign, have not played well against us at all. Reading were just plain rank awful while Wednesday laboured for much of this, isolating their two strikers bar a hot spell in the quarter of an hour after half time when they scored once and should have had at least one more. They also suffered two first half injuries to Glen Loovens the centre half, and key midfield man Sam Hutchinson forcing early changes.
Tougher examinations lie in wait, possibly starting at Norwich on Wednesday despite their collapse at home to Sunderland this afternoon, and QPR might well not be up to those. The season may still go as many of us expected it to as the nights draw in, the injuries mount, confidence dips during inevitable sticky patches, and the lesser-spotted Ian Holloway unchanged team we saw on Saturday becomes entirely extinct.
But to come away from a game at the home of one of the promotion favourites, their first home game of the season no-less, not only with a point but also the feeling that it was two dropped rather than one won is more than any of us dared hope for on Saturday morning, and would have been something of a pipe dream even a fortnight ago.
Just don't touch it. Don't say anything. Don't change anything. Don't move anything because its vision is based on movement. Just stay nice and calm and still and don't think anything because it can read your thoughts. Don't jinx it.

Sheff Wed: Westwood 6; Hunt 6, Lees 6, Loovens 6 (Winnall 27, 7), Pudil 6; Wallace 5, Hutchinson 6 (Jones 13, 6), Bannan 6, Reach 6; Hooper 6, Rhodes 5 (Fletcher 87, -)

Goals: Mackie 23 (assisted Freeman)
Yellows: Lynch 40 (foul), Bidwell 66 (foul), Scowen 80 (foul)
QPR Star Man – Luke Freeman 7 Pulling strings and making things happen when ever he had the ball, another assist was his reward. Without the ball his work rate is prodigious and, along with Scowen and Luongo, set the tone for the performance.
Referee – Chris Kavanagh (Manchester) 7 Overall I thought he was very good and the abuse Sian Massey took from the side stand (with the usual "get your tits out for the lads" bilge from the sort of sex-deprived, middle-aged troglodytes who probably thought Keysie and Graysie were harshly done to by Sky) was over the top – if your back four can't get itself into a straight line and play offside it's not the assistant's referee for not flagging it. But that all said, I thought they both made a mess of the penalty incident in the first half which should have been a spot kick to Sheff Wed from where I was sitting so hard to mark too high even though the other 89 minutes of the performance probably deserved it – much like Nedum Onuoha in fact.

Matches of Yesteryear - Mansfield v U's 18/8/18 by wessex_exile
Another busy week, so apologies this has had to wait until today. Once again the random match selector throws a curve ball – with the cheers from our imperious victory at Field Mill last Saturday still fresh in the memory, we return to Field Mill (aka The One-Call Stadium) for this one.

|printed photograph
I haven't gotten very far, but I'll share what I do have and my process. I started with the photograph, of course. I printed it on a regular 8 1/2 by 10 sheet of copy paper in black and white.
|paper pattern
On the paper I traced many of the details. Then I labeled the parts so that when I cut the pattern apart, I could easily put it back together.
|close-up of pattern
On the muslin I only blocked out the larger elements of the barn--not the trees or the details. This is so that I can put the fabric pieces in the correct places. The muslin is the background of the quilt picture and gives me something to press the applique pieces to.
|muslin backing
I use iron-on fusible web and keep a couple of different brands. I do not like the heavy plastic-like stuff that comes pre-packaged. It holds forever, but sewing over it is almost impossible. Heat n Bond lite works well for me, but I've used other brands that worked well.
|close-up of muslin
I'm fairly pleased with my progress so far. There's still much left to do: finish the barn, add grass, trees, and sky and, of course, quilting. I have plans for thread painting the entire piece to add dimension, color and detail. It will be a while before that comes. Please tell me what you think and drop a suggestion or two if you have any. I'd love to get some feedback on this one.

Pink Moments
moments in baby pink
dancing molecules in my brain
was it only yesterday when
i saw you smile?
talk in silence across a crowd?
was it only yesterday when
i heard your voice?
speak in whispers to a soul mate
yet unknown?
was it only yesterday when
that special bond
the 'you' and the 'i'
narrowed down
into a thin gap between knowing
and unknowing?
relative closeness
awakening of the self
and a sweet sensation

The packing guide
In four days I'm on a plane on my way to England. My room is therefore currently one big packing mess, haha! I really enjoy packing because it makes my stomach full of excited butterflies 🙂 But I'm also the kind of person who always forget something! So this time I decided to make my own packing guide, so I can keep track of all the things I have to bring to England. I know there's a lot of other students traveling abroad at the time, so I decided to make this packing guide for all of you travellers out there.
Now back to packing <3
