NHS cracks down on incentives to curb GPs cancer referrals
Exclusive NHS England has scolded CCGs for offering incentives to GPs for cutting down the number of urgent cancer referrals they make.
The director of commissioning said that she has been in contact with the CCGs who were giving practices financial incentives to cut urgent cancer referrals to ease pressure on secondary care, as revealed by Pulse last week.
The Pulse investigation found that NHS North-East Lincolnshire CCG and NHS Lambeth CCG were offering financial incentives for practices to cut the number of referrals they made, which included urgent cancer referrals.
They were among nine overall who Pulse found were setting practices referrals targets in order to receive extra funding.
Following a media outcry, NHS England has contacted the CCGs involved to say that they must ensure that their incentives scheme should not affect cancer referrals.
Dame Barbara Hakin, national director for commissioning operations at NHS England, said: 'The number of patients referred to hospital for urgent cancer checks is up by over 600,000 over the past five years, and we now want it to go up even more, so as to diagnose suspected cancers earlier.
'NICE has set out evidence based guidelines for when patients should be referred, and no CCG incentive scheme should in anyway cut across that. We are in touch with each of the CCGs mentioned to ensure that this is very clearly communicated to all practices.'
The GPC said that many of these schemes could be 'ethically questionable' and Pulse revealed that the GMC looked into at least one of them to see if it is contrary to the guidance for doctors in Good Medical Practice.
Last week, shadow health secretary Heidi Alexander called for a national review of the CCG schemes.

The best incentive would be no risk of litigation and being allowed to use our skills freely. Patients are no longer worried about wasting out time and tax payers money. All they care about is the "what if?" scenario. Why see a pharmacist and pay for OTC meds when you can see a highly skilled professional who will also give you free stuff? This sense of entitlement needs to end and it will once it all goes private.
The new NICE guideline aimed to lowered the threshold of conversion of cancer referral to cancer diagnosis from 5% of referred patients (old guideline) to 3%. This obviously means thousands more will be referred, costing may millions more.
All of the above is perverse when the government is asking for 22 billion "efficiency" savings. I'm not aware of any new money passed to CCG to commission a service to meet the increased demand. I feel sorry for those struggling CCGs who are not given the money it needs yet are still forced to make savings and cater for increased demand which is outside of it's control!
Of course , CCGs are scapegoats with GPs on board. We know that from the first day when the Health and Social Care Bill was passed.
On one hand , cut referrals to save money . Then wants to claim the glory as a government to improve cancer survival. Our indemnity is going up and people are leaving .it is all down to the honesty and integrity of a government with its politicians.

Your ( meaning leftist cardigan ) mentality is the biggest reason for the mess we are in. You never say no to anything and you massively undervalued our profession. Let me guess, you are close to retirement and you think the world would end if you weren't there for your massively doctor-dependant patients. Do us all a favour and complete your burn out by any means you see fit.

Well I thought I would do a little bit of a different post today, although I might do a normal post a bit laters!
I am going to tell you a little teeny bit about what I did yesterday! I had a little day out to the lovely city that is London! I went with +Vikki Lamb and Josh - my uni buddies. We went to Madame Tussauds, the science museum, the London Eye and Buckingham Palace. To be honest, Vikki and I entered tourist mode!
So naturally I thought I would post some pictures to you!
Josh, Vikki, Kate, Wills and I!
An awesome picture of Vikki and I with MJ!
We took over Obama's office.
We have now joined the royal family.

That is just Madame Tussaud's (massive shout out to them for an awesome day!). We then headed on over to Covent Garden - my favourite place in London - to go to the Nandos there. That is beyond typical me, I head for Nandos every time, haha! I had the chicken burger with cheese (done medium of course) with corn and creamy mash.
After that we got the tube down to South Kensington station where we strolled on down to the museums. This is where we encountered a dilemma! We had to decide which one to go to! For all your guys who have never been to London before, there are several museums we could have ventured to. Our choices were: the Natural History museum, Science museum, or the Victoria and Albert museum. So being the nerds that we are, we went to the science museum. It was so awesome, and I definitely recommend going there! I shan't bore you with all the details of it as it will bore you to death, and you should go and see it yourself! They also have this Google web lab thing where you get a lab tag and go round and do these awesome things!

The side of the Houses of Parliament and the London Eye.
Westminster Abbey.
We then had the awesome experience of going on the London Eye, which was so awesome! The views from the top are incredible and you can see pretty much all of London. I shall show you some of my pictures.
Then to finish the day, we took a trip down the Mall to Buckingham Palace. There is so much press down there at the moment waiting for the arrival of the Royal baby. We also saw a drunk man swimming in the fountain which was rather amusing!
Well this has been a bit of a long post, hasn't it?! I shall stop now before this becomes a bit of an essay....
If you have got this far then you deserve a pat on the back!
Thank you for reading all about my day. If you wanna hear more ramble from me, then head on up to the top of the page and click "follow this site" to subscribe to me!
Speak to you guys laters!

Christians & LGBT people carry death in our bodies – 2 Corinthians 4:5-12
LGBTQ people are intimately with pain, suffering, trauma, and death; it's part of our collective history and for many of us, it's part of our personal history too. This passage talks about how Christians "carry Jesus' death around in our bodies" and that is something LGBTQ Christians are particularly suited to viscerally understand.
In this episode, we explore what this passage has to say for queer folks — and how queer folks can help the larger Church understand this passage more fully.

2 Corinthians 4:5-12
We don't preach about ourselves. Instead, we preach about Jesus Christ as Lord, and we describe ourselves as your slaves for Jesus' sake. 6 God said that light should shine out of the darkness. He is the same one who shone in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God's glory in the face of Jesus Christ.
But we have this treasure in clay pots so that the awesome power belongs to God and doesn't come from us. We are experiencing all kinds of trouble, but we aren't crushed. We are confused, but we aren't depressed. We are harassed, but we aren't abandoned. We are knocked down, but we aren't knocked out.
We always carry Jesus' death around in our bodies so that Jesus' life can also be seen in our bodies. We who are alive are always being handed over to death for Jesus' sake so that Jesus' life can also be seen in our bodies that are dying. So death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.

This is a silly old joke but it has kept me thinking today.
The BRAIN SAID - "Since I control everything and do all the thinking, I should be boss." THE FEET SAID - "Since I carry him everywhere he wants to go and get him in position to do what the brain wants, I should be boss." THE EYES SAID - "Since I must look out for all of you and tell you where the danger lurks, I should be boss." THE HANDS SAID - "Since I do all the work and earn all the money to keep the rest of you going, I should be boss." And the heart, lungs, and ears all say the same thing. Finally, the asshole spoke up and demanded to be boss. All the other laughed and laughed to think of an asshole being boss. The asshole was so angered that he balked and refused to function. Soon the brain was feverish, the eyes crossed and ached, the feet were too weak to walk, the hands hung limply at the sides, and the heart and lungs struggled to keep going. All pleaded with the brain to relent and let the asshole be boss, and so it happened. All the other parts did all the work and the asshole just bossed and passed out Shit.
Then there is supposed to be some pithy comment about Bosses, But I like Bosses so I deleted that bit, but not my bum.
I know ladies aren't supposed to fart or talk about blowing off, or notice when someone lets off a stinker, but as a result of my dismal results in the LADY survey, it should surprise no-one that, as it's on my mind today, that's what I am gonna chat about here.
Dog has taken to jumping into bed in wee hours probably cos it's been delightfully chilly. She snuggles up close and steals the covers and uses my feet as a pillow. Yeh, it's a 69er with Dog, so not as lovely as those languid late sunday mornings without children or the madness of any other time. But she is down the bum end and her arse is firing off right in my face.
I noticed this morning that a lot of farting was going on....her's are filthy stinkers and mine are surprisingly, rather lady-like silent and not smelly. or at least with my head on the right side of the covers, that's how it appears to me. She is blissfully unaware of the cloud she is creating.
Now as I am going away in a few weeks, I'm not the least bit interested in the well-meaning advice of doctor types who might be about to recommend that I book in for a hose-pipe up the bum investigation. If there is anything untoward going on, well it'll just have to wait til I get back. I am gonna pack up my windy end and fart all the way to London.
It made me wonder this morning if in deed the bowel is the very first part of every body to awaken, and the blowing is it's way of letting everything else know, it's time to get going, not literally you understand, just get up and moving and on with the day. Dog does seem to be very keen to get out of the house in the mornings and at the risk of sounding like some sort of canine voyeur, I have noticed that she does head straight out for her favourite bit of grass.
So, I not really interested in ALL the nasty details of what goes on in your bed in the AM hours, I just wondered if people, mostly fart in the morning?

Can Seniors Afford Not to Have A Medicare Supplement?
The answer to the question above is yes – and no – because Medicare has changed over the years and so have the Medicare Supplements (also known as Medigap plans). Medicare Advantage is available, as well, though the jury is out on both sides as to whether it works well or not. Ask one person who has it and they will tell you it's great. Ask another and they will tell you they are not happy with it.
The issue, though, is whether a senior should have a Medigap plan or Medicare Advantage. That depends on the senior. There are several factors involved in making this decision. For instance, if you are a senior but you don't have any chronic illness, go to the doctor for your annual checkup and still play golf once or twice a week, you probably don't need Medicare Supplement Insurance, and could instead get by with a no premium Medicare Advantage plan. On the other hand if you do have a chronic illness, have regular doctor visits, treatments and medications that you must have to stay healthy you probably do need a Medicare Supplement plan.
The reason for that is that your doctor visits, treatments and medication might have an actual cost of $500 per month, but the supplement might only cost $95 per month. Getting the right supplement could save you over $400 per month in this case. That is a lot of money for anyone. In this situation, a person really can't afford not to have a supplement.
There is also another scenario. There can be the person that takes blood pressure or other medication, but their symptoms are controlled with medication and they see their doctor every two to three months just to check in. Those individuals may or may not choose a supplement, or there may be one that is reasonable that will cover just what they need. They do need to have prescription coverage (Medicare Part D) because they are on long-term prescriptions that can cost a fortune, even in generic form.
So, the final answer is that it comes down to each person's individual situation as to whether they can afford not to have a Medicare Supplement. If you are a senior and you need information or are in doubt as to what coverage you need, you can start by visiting www.MedigapAdvisors.com. You will find information to help you determine what is right for your situation and links to other sites as well.

The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.
– Winston Churchill
One thing that I've noticed has crept in, or maybe that I was too naive to see when I first started work, is that managers are now leaders. We don't want people to only plan and organise, but we want people to inspire and challenge, and not just with a vision but with honesty and an integrity that means that they take responsibility.
It's a distinct lack of leadership that is irritating me about the whole debate on leaving the EU. That and the fact that Brexit's naming convention in combining two words in to one for a jaunty title has its origins somewhere around X-Factor joke act Jedward.
I'm lucky enough to live in a democracy where the qualifying electorate (who are fairly representative of society) have the right to elect a person to lead our country and, albeit maybe indirectly, to dismiss them from their position when or if they don't lead us in a direction we want to go in.
I live in a representative democracy and, as such, I can't help but feel a certain disappointment that my leader is rejecting the responsibility to make a decision on my country's membership of the European Union. It feels like gross negligence to abdicate the responsibility of the most important decision we, as a nation, have probably ever faced, because its consequences could well be irreversible.
Yes, the EU has flaws, especially in its democratic accountability. But this is also not just a decision around which country provides our pickers of fruit and vegetables and whether those fruit and vegetables are the right size and shape. This is a decision that affects immigration, crime, trade, law, jobs, economy, sovereignty and defence.
The effects will not just be felt by Britain, but may reach even further than the 28 nations who have combined to turn a war zone in to arguably the most important trade bloc on the planet. European Council President Donald Tusk said "that Brexit could be the beginning of the destruction of not only the EU but also of western political civilisation in its entirety".
And who do you think should make that decision?
It appears to me that in modern politics the average person on the street is more interested in being represented by the person that they can be mates with. This means that they want to be represented by the person who knows the cost of a loaf of bread and is also apoplectic about council car parking prices. This image of being a "man (or woman) of the people" can be attained by a delegation of responsibility by letting that average person on the street make decisions.
As Richard Dawkins put it when he was discussing this very subject:
If you are going to have an operation you want to have an elite surgeon, if you are going to board a plane you want an elite pilot. The same should be true of government. We need to be governed by the elite rather than by people like you and me.
I realise at this stage that I'm making an assumption, and that's that the average person on the street has elected the best person to represent them in Parliament. Whether that person is or is not seen by any part of society as "elite" is irrelevant. Yes, this person may be the best of a bad bunch but they have been elected by a majority to represent the whole. As such, they have a responsibility to be both knowledgeable of the pros and cons of the debate and to be representative of the people who elected them.
To put forward an argument that those people in Parliament are just as uninformed as the person on the street and therefore no better placed to make a decision on membership of the EU, to me, undermines the very democracy that we're trying to maintain and forms the basis of a different argument entirely. We elect these people to be our representatives and our leaders and so, if we fundamentally do not trust them, why should we be given a second chance to do their job for them?
I want my government to be making these big decisions for me because I think that they're better qualified to do it than the person sat at home complaining that the Polish people picking straight cucumbers in the farm across the road are taking some of the benefits he wants for refusing to pick the straight cucumbers because the pay doesn't make it worth his while.
I want my government to be making these big decisions for me because I think that they're better qualified to do it than people making uninformed decisions on gut feelings or lack of knowledge because they feel that they must vote out of duty.
I want my government to be making these big decisions for me because I think that they're better qualified to do it than than the people who want Britain to leave the EU because "we fought wars so that we wouldn't be ruled by Germany" without realising the fundamental ideals for which their families fought and died are encapsulated by the very thing that the European Union is trying to be.
I want my government to be making these big decisions for me because I don't want a decision to be made on the back of anti-establishment sentiment that is seeing that imbecile Donald Trump gain a ridiculous amount of traction in the US elections.
To an extent, I also want my government to make this decision because a fairly large proportion of the population eligible to vote will be dead before the true effects of their decision are seen by the rest of us. They're an important section of the population in this debate too, with more than 80 per cent of over-55s declaring that they're certain to vote in the EU referendum, but barely half of under-35s say the same. Yes, I do believe some people's votes are more important than others.
The Leave campaign will read this and say that I'm scared of the 'the plebeian end' of society. Others will realise that I've actually tried to stay out of the Leave or Remain or debate for now. I'm also trying to stay out of David Cameron's selfishness about the whole situation. Some will call me bigoted. However, I actually don't seek to make my point by highlighting the class system and calling some people ignorant and / or stupid.
I seek to make my point by suggesting, that in my opinion, the best people to take the responsibility of making these decisions are our leaders, the people that you and I elect in to office to represent our interests. So that's what I want them to do. I want them to take responsibility and lead.
She wanted me, I know she did, I know these things.
Didn't have to tell me though she could have,
She spoke of me to her best friend (my ears stings).
Didn't want to let on that was her choice.
Famously, courageously, it's your say.
In time, in life you have a choice and mind response-ability
And it's up to us to get it right.
Divine response-ability, ability, ability.
I could have been, I know I could but as it was
I chose not to speak out but wish I would have.
Weird how it is a classic thing, panicking.
A self inflicted, nervous, lost control.
Aimlessly, courageously it's your say.
In time, in life, you have a choice
And mind response-ability,
And it's up to us to get it right.
Divine response-ability, ability, ability.
Famously, courageously it's you say.
In time, in life you have a choice and mind response-ability
And it's up to us to get it right.
Divine, response-ability.
Response-ability by Simon Townshend

Magazine article Nation's Cities Weekly
NLC Community and Economic Development Committee Focuses on Economic Growth
Article excerpt
NLC's Community and Economic Development (CED) Steering Committee continued to focus on programs, practices and incentives that promote local economic growth and job creation during its spring meeting May 19-21 in Ventura, Calif.
In addition to economic development, a main objective for the committee in 2011, members looked at the impact of the economic downturn on public/private partnerships and how the best partnerships often endure with assistance from programs like the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME programs.
As chair of the CED Committee, Coolidge, Ariz., Vice-Mayor Gilbert Lopez led the committee through several discussions, including one on the vulnerability of federal block grant programs, like CDBG, in the current anti-spending environment.
Members brainstormed and offered several proposals to reduce some of those vulnerabilities in future funding battles.
The committee also discussed persistent regulatory challenges to local economic growth.
As a result, the committee asked Chairman Lopez to appoint a small subset of CED members and their city staff to study and recommend action on duplicative and burdensome regulatory requirements that delay community development and impair job creation.
Local development and finance experts helped to inform the committee's discussions. The Cabrillo Economic Development Corporation provided the committee with affordable housing and economic development strategies for low- and moderate-income communities. …

Simple Make-Up Every Day
We all know how to get ready for party evenings but how to put on make-up for a morning board meeting or an afternoon lunch with the clients? The point here is to keep it simple yet glamorous so that you don't look caked by the end of the day. Here are some tips to apply that make-up which is suitable for all kinds of day events.
Prep Work
Wash your face thoroughly and pat it dry with a gentle towel. You can also exfoliate your skin for it to look smooth and fresh. When exfoliating, always work on areas that are dry and flaky. After exfoliating, apply a clear mask to shut the pores that have been opened by scrubbing. Apply a good moisturizer to make your skin smooth and soft. Allow the moisturizer o absorb in the skin first.
Applying Base Make-up
Start with applying foundation that matches your skin tone. You can go for a liquefied version at goes with nearly all the skin types. Apply the foundation on your face evenly using your fingers or brush. You can now use the concealer that matches your skin tone to color the blemishes and give your face an even look. Next step is to apply powder in circular motion that matches your skin color. This will give you a natural look after finishing these initial steps.
Apply color to parts of the face
At this stage, you should apply blush to give your cheeks the rosy flush. However, make sure that you use the color moderately. Pink toned is perfect for the day and must be applied in circular motion on the cheek apples. Now use the neutral colored eye shadow and light colored lipstick to finish the look.

Yes. You read that correctly. Peeps. S'Mores. O. M. G.
So, this is an example of my Pinterest wandering bringing me to something ridiculous. You know those posts of cookies stuffed with brownies? Or the Chex mix recipes that shouldn't really be called a Chex mix anymore because they are 95% candy bar? I thought that this fell into the category, too. But something about it called out to me. Something told me that these needed to be made. So. I did. One more treat to bring to Easter.
The chocolate dipping part was super easy. The chocolate melted very well and looked great on the graham crackers with the Easter-y sprinkles. Very cute already. I set them out so the chocolate could harden.
This is when I realized that the recipe said that you needed to leave your Peeps out so they could get a bit stale for easy cutting. Yep. Definitely read right over that the first time I read the recipe. So, the finished S'mores would have to wait until the next morning – one more thing to try to get done before we left.
The next day: if you are going to do these, please, for your own sanity, let the Peeps harden up for more than one night. Trying to cut these was just silly. So, the finished product is not nearly as cute as I was hoping. (Darn you, Pinterest! One more example of something not turning out as polished and perfect as yours!)
Also, these do not travel well. The chocolate completely melted and stuck to the serving tray. So, they looked a little sad. But…..they taste really yummy! If you happen to have some leftover Peeps from Easter, I recommend giving these a try. Just try not to leave them by the window in the car.

Hey, I made an attempt to dj at my friends house for a little get together. I setup my laptop with Traktor pro 2 using a mixtrack controller and a presonus audiobox 44vsl. I had the main outputs set for channel 1 and 2, and the cue for 3 and 4. No matter how much i try, the cue were going though the main speakers rather than my headphones. i changed the combinations as well as checked the software for presonus audiobox but they still go through the mains. When I used my friends hercules controller that had a built-in sound card, it worked normally. Am I doing something wrong or could it be the audiobox?
Thank you

Reader's view: Thanks for helping mobile food pantry
To the editor:
The Midland County Emergency Food Pantry Network held a mobile food pantry at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Midland on Feb. 24. The free food giveaway also was funded by the generous congregations of the 1st Ward and the 2nd Ward.
Ninety-eight volunteers unloaded the semi-truck from Flint on Friday and then served 209 families (565 individuals) on Saturday morning. The 16,008 pounds of frozen meats, onions, potatoes, canned and boxed goods, and bakery items were purchased from the Food Bank of Eastern Michigan in Flint. The Network is also grateful to the many donors of food, money and time throughout the year to the Network's mission of "always food in every home."
Midland County residents in (financial) need of food and personal care items during the year may call the Network number of 486-9393 to leave your name and phone number. The third MFP in 2018 is scheduled for March 21 at Faith United Methodist Church in Coleman. Thanks again to the members and staffs of the 1st Ward and the 2nd Ward of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for their partnering support in this ministry.

Maximo 18.104.22.168 Feature Pack
New Maximo Offerings in May 2017
IBM released lots of new Maximo offerings last week! There is a new feature pack for Maximo 220.127.116.11, new versions of Scheduler and Scheduler Plus 7.6.5, the next mobile release – Maximo Anywhere 7.6.2, and Maximo Asset Health Insights 22.214.171.124! These are all available for SaaS and on premise.
Maximo 184.108.40.206 Feature Pack
Exciting new features and capabilities in the Maximo 22.214.171.124 feature pack include a new Time Zone Rules application and Budget Monitoring application. Additionally, the alternate user interface and Work Centers are enhanced to include a new landing page for Work Centers and new security group templates that enable access to Work Centers and tools and tasks. New inspections tools provide the ability to build and conduct online inspections for assets and locations. Maximo 22.214.171.124 also brings the latest in platform certifications with Windows Server 2016, SQL Server 2016 and Oracle EBS 12.2.6.
Users can specify a budget based on an financial period or specify a date range such as a fiscal year or a quarter. Budget administrators can then create budget lines around 9 out-of-the-box axis points (WO, Asset, Location, Chart of Accounts, 6 GL Components). After determining what will drive the tracking, users can identify what kinds of transactions will impact estimated, committed and actual budget costs. There are 64 rules provided to determine how transactions are considered against the budget. Once established and approved, these budgets can be used to drive reporting that can help make better decisions across the organization and improve overall fiscal tracking and compliance.
Inspection Tools and Tasks
Starting with 126.96.36.199, Work Centers have been released for Technicians, Supervisors, Business Analysts, and most recently Service Requestors. 184.108.40.206 now offers support for Inspection processes. An Inspection form can be created that becomes the framework for the steps needed to be performed during an inspection, defining the kinds of questions and responses that need to be captured. It is managed with a status like other Maximo documents. Once active, these Inspections can be executed and data easily captured in the field on a smart phone or tablet.
Maximo Scheduler
Enabling more flexible views, there are now ways to bring in craft/labor counts to support a more generic estimating exercise.
Faster running optimization models that now support multi-skill labor and improved error reporting. Additionally, the optimization engine has been upgraded to IBM iLog DOC 3.9.
Maximo Scheduler Plus
A new application "Graphical Scheduling – Large Projects" enables users to view and manage large volumes of work through the use of paging. This application caters to planners and schedulers responsible for managing large projects like plant shutdowns and turnarounds.
Enhancements to the Graphical Scheduling application to now support full critical path methodologies with filters to highlight critical path items.
Users can also track the progress of an individual work order or a project via the percentage complete capability.
The ability to auto refresh – so as work orders are updated, the labor/crew routes are automatically refreshed to reflect the latest information. Dispatchers can also re-optimize the remainder of the day/week to accommodate new emergent work.
Support for confirmation, cancellation, or reschedule of a customer appointment via email communication.
Visual indications of weather alerts effecting work orders are shown in Graphical Scheduling, Graphical Assignment, and Graphical Appointment Book applications with tool tip details on perils and the applicable timeframe. This capability requires a subscription to the IBM Weather Company Alerts for Worker Safety offering.
Maximo Anywhere
Maximo Anywhere 7.6.2 has an improved work execution application. It now offers offline map capabilities that can be configured through the map manager application to store local ESRI maps on the Anywhere mobile application. This allows users to have access to critical information needed to perform their daily tasks.
Maximo Asset Health Insights
Now offering the ability to analyze the effectiveness of preventive maintenance programs, investigate failure incidents through root cause analysis, the ability to develop capital plan requirements using asset health information, as well as new factors that introduces additional flexibility in the creation of formulas. In addition, there is an integration available for PMQ that can publish predicted failure dates directly into Asset Health Insights.

5 Ways Small Business Owners Can Stop Feeling Overwhelmed Every Day
If you are one of those business owners who is feeling bogged down and overwhelmed, use these 5 strategies to efficiently manage the tasks you need to complete.
One of the worst and biggest problems small business owners face is overwhelm. There are always too many things to do and not enough hours in the day. This feeling of being out of control can lead to a lot of extra stress and lost sleep if you wake up with a thousand and one things running around in your head. According to the Small Business Administration, there are 28.8 million small business owners in the U.S. If you are one of those business owners who is feeling bogged down and overwhelmed, use these 5 strategies to efficiently manage the tasks you need to complete.
Always break things down.
Take the approach that it's best to do things one at a time when it comes to large – or numerous – projects happening simultaneously. You'll feel more overwhelmed when your brain is too full and it becomes a struggle to process the demands that accompany it. Avoid information overload by breaking projects down into smaller parts so you can focus on one thing at a time. This strategy will allow you to get a lot more done in a less stressful way.
Clear your plate
Hire people you trust and delegate! While it's tempting for some business owners to micromanage, consider evaluating your list of tasks and see if it makes sense to delegate to others. Hire quality freelancers or other specialists who possess the skills to do an excellent job, and you will probably save both time and money in the long run.
Utilize technology
Take advantage of the flexibility technology offers you when it comes to the way you choose to work. Working remotely already allows for additional productivity, as long as you invest in smart technology. Online tools can help your business succeed, so make sure you learn exactly how to use the technology so you can reap the benefits. It's worth it to embrace technology instead of fighting it – it'll make your life much easier.
Plan your day
If you want to combat overwhelm, rethink your day. If you change just a few bad habits, you can drastically improve your levels of productivity and slash your stress. Start your day by planning it out so you feel a sense of control. Attack the tasks that are at the top of your to do list before all of the crazy commences.
Learn how to identify your priorities
Learn how to determine which tasks are the most important and need completed first. The most demanding client or customer shouldn't always take precedent. If they do, the real priorities can take a backseat. This leads to quickly approaching – or missed -- deadlines and added stress. Map out your priorities based on reality instead of on the demands from a client or customer.
So much to do, so little time. That saying has never held truer than it does for the small business owner. Use these steps to help rid that feeling of overwhelm and get a hold of your day-to-day life in the office.

Alien abduction, Devin McGinn, Disappearance, Erin Cahill, Found footage, Horror, Jon Gries, Kyle Davis, Lights in the sky, Paranormal activity, Review, Thriller, UFO's
D: Devin McGinn / 86m
Cast: Jon Gries, Kyle Davis, Erin Cahill, Devin McGinn, Steve Berg, Matthew Rocheleau, Michael Horse, Michael Black
A short time after his son disappears inexplicably, Hoyt Miller (Gries) agrees for a team of paranormal researchers to spend time at his ranch in an effort to explain what happened to his son. The team, led by Sam (Berg), include veterinarian Lisa (Cahill), security and surveillance expert Ray (Davis), investigative journalist Cameron (McGinn), cameraman Britton (Black) plus media technician, driver, cook and resident bitch Matt (Rocheleau). Over the course of the next few days, Hoyt and the team experience all manner of weird phenomena, including strange lights, ghostly apparitions and loud, ear-splitting noises. As things get increasingly weirder, Matt leaves after getting injured, and exhorts everyone else to do the same. Nevertheless the rest all stay until events spiral wildly out of control…
Yet another found footage movie – and don't we need even more of them? – Skinwalker Ranch at least tries to do something different by virtue of its location and the cause of the weird phenomena: this time around it's (probably) aliens. Taking some of the folklore surrounding UFO sightings and bending it to fit the storyline, the movie begins well enough, with comments from several locals about the boy's disappearance, and with each character clearly defined and the team's goal(s) clearly marked out. McGinn invests these early sequences with the intention of making the audience identify to a degree with Hoyt and the team, but as the movie progresses that identification peters out as they all behave either stupidly or strangely, or both.
Skinwalker Ranch fails to address the same conundrum that undermines all found footage movies: when does someone pay heed to the danger around them and drop the ruddy camera? That said, the movie gets extra mileage out of the fixed camera set ups the team employ around the ranch, and the open spaces make for an unexpectedly eerie visual theme. But there's still too much running with the camera. By now we're all aware that jostling the camera and/or employing interference is often a way of hiding an effect – here most effectively done in the barn sequence involving Hoyt's dog – but this knowledge further undermines the effectiveness of the "fright" scenes. Pulling off an apparently in-camera effect is half the fun of watching these movies – the girl being hoisted up in the air by her hair in Paranormal Activity 2 anyone? – but there's little fun to be had now, there's no sense of anticipation or dread either here, or anywhere else these days.
The movie takes an unexpected turn into Hound of the Baskervilles territory for a while before returning to its alien abduction theme, and the decision by Matt to leave after being thrown through the air is refreshing, but these aspects aside, there's nothing really new here, just the setting. A figure still passes by a window in the background but isn't seen, one of the characters is forced to do something terrible by unseen hands, bright lights flash on and off for no discernible reason, and when the culprit is revealed there's no element of terror, just a relief that, at last, things must be coming to an end. And even though another side trip into the past where evidence comes to light that the organisation Sam works for – MDE – has been involved in previous strange events in the area, ticks the potential prequel box, this subplot leans more heavily in the direction of demonic possession than alien abduction, and actively lessens the effectiveness of the story as a whole.
Making his feature debut, McGinn copes well enough with the demands of the genre, but proves a better actor than director. Gries is convincing throughout, and the rest of the cast do their best to flesh out characters that are largely stereotypes. The location is the movie's main strength, and is used tellingly, creating what little credible tension there is. But more annoyingly, you never discover why it's called Skinwalker ranch.
Rating: 6/10 – not the worst found footage movie, but not the best either, Skinwalker Ranch has some good ideas but they're too often fumbled in the quest for the next scare; ultimately, a shallow experience and one that doesn't follow through on its initial set up.

Can you tell me how you came up with the net carb. I came up with 3 net carbs. These look soooo good and I would like to start using swerve as a sweetner. I eat low carb and am a type 2 diabetic Thanks
Hi Faye, Thank you for your comment! We use the raw (non-rounded) numbers from the nutrition analysis to get the net carb count. Sometimes the numbers seem off if you're just subtracting fiber and Swerve from total carbs. You can click Find Swerve to find the nearest Swerve retailer to you :)

You're here to Play Big
You're done playing small. You've given it good try but at the end of the day, it was boring, frustrating and it just didn't fit.
You're totally done playing the role that people expect you play.
It's time to properly own the Superhero you are and the confidence, wealth and freedom that goes with it.
This is where you change the rules of the game because you create the game you're playing.
You have the power to Be, Do and Have everything you want.
Are you ready to own your greatness?
"That person who helps others simply because it should or must be done, and because it is the right thing to do, is indeed without a doubt, a real Superhero." – Stan Lee

A pack of 6 Butterscotch Hair Dye Hair Chalks for your highly vibrant hair coloring
Camel Hair Color – Temporary Hair Dye that Colors Your Hair in Seconds
This must be the ultimate most attractive shade of the year! Get all these amazing shades in your hair – from beige, blonde, brown, auburn, honey – into an awesome autumn splash of vibrant colors!
Temporarily Dye Your Hair Vibrant Cinnamon Hair Dye with Zero Hassle!
Each package comes with detailed instructions on how to use the hair chalks for best and most colorful results.
- Hair chalks are simple to use, you can instantly change the color of your hair to Cocoa Brown
- Hair chalk stays in your hair for 1-2 washes (even longer in lighter hair!)
- Bright and vivid Copper Hair Dye – Works well with both light and dark hair
- Safe, non-toxic way to color your hair Desert brown without bleaching. Suitable for kids.
- Every stick of hair chalk is individually shrink wrapped to protect it from breaking
How to Use the Ginger Hair Chalk
- Grab a hair chalk, a towel or a plastic cape, gloves, a hair clip, hair spray and a plastic jar with water – can be a yogurt jar (or just tap water)
- slightly wet your hair and the end of the hair chalk
- Rub the chalk onto your hair, holding it straight. Rub it in direction of hair growth (from top to bottom) instead of up & down movement.
- Apply the color with the tip of the hair chalk, not the side, for a brighter and more vivid color.
- You can also try dissolving the hair chalk in a splash of water and applying the mixture on your hair with a hair color brush
- Use the blow dryer to dry your hair – don't dry it with a towel as the chalk will stain it – but the best is just air drying and brushing to dry your your hair (this way you'll also get a nice gradient hair color – not too deep)
- For longer lasting hair chalk, use the hair straightener or hair curler
- For better & longer lasting color, use the hair chalk after you've styled your hair!

You might be searching for a suitable and free EMI Calculator. If yes, then you are at the right website. Here you will find various EMI Calculators just like EMI Calculator, Home Loan EMI Calculator, etc.
What is EMI?
Equated Monthly Instalment or EMI in short. EMI is the amount payable every month to the bank or any other financial institution until the loan amount is fully paid off. EMI consists of the interest on loan as well as part of the principal amount to be repaid. The sum of principal amount and interest is divided by the repayment tenure, i.e., the number of months, in which the loan has to be repaid. This amount (EMI) has to be paid monthly. The interest component of the EMI would be larger during the initial months and gradually reduce with each repayment. Your monthly EMI payment won't change, the proportion of principal and interest components will change with time. With each successive repayment, you'll pay more towards the principal and less in interest.
You can also calculate EMI using our Home Loan Calculator.
How to Calculate EMI?
Here's the formula to calculate EMI:
Where –
- E is EMI
- P is Principal Loan Amount
- r is the rate of interest calculated on a monthly basis. (i.e., r = Rate of Annual interest/12/100. If rate of interest is 10.5% per annum, then r = 10.5/12/100=0.00875)
- n is loan term/tenure/duration in number of months
For example, if you borrow ₹1,00,000 from the bank at 11% annual interest for a period of 5 years (i.e., 60 months), then EMI = ₹1,00,000 * 0.00916 * (1 + 0.00916)120 / ((1 + 0.00916)120 – 1) = ₹2,174. i.e., you will have to pay ₹2,174 for 60 months to repay the entire loan amount. The total amount payable will be ₹2,174 * 60 = ₹1,30,440 that includes ₹30,440 as interest toward the loan.
Calculating EMI for different combinations of the principal loan amount, interest rates and loan term using the above EMI formula by hand is time-consuming, complex and error-prone. Our EMI calculator automates this calculation process for you and gives you the result in a split second along with visual charts displaying payment schedule and the break-up of total payment.
How to Use EMI Calculator?
With colorful charts and instant results, our EMI Calculator is easy to use, easy to understand and is quick to perform. You can calculate EMI for home loan, car loan, personal loan, education loan or any other fully amortizing loan using our EMI Calculator.
Just enter the following information in the EMI Calculator:
- The principal loan amount you wish to avail (in INR)
- Rate of interest (percentage)
- Loan Tenure (months or years)
Use the slider to adjust the values in the EMI calculator form or simply you can enter the desired amount by typing in the boxes. As soon as the values are changed using the slider or entered manually (hit the 'tab' key after entering the values directly in the input fields), the EMI calculator will re-calculate your monthly repayment (EMI) amount.
A pie chart depicting the break-up of total payment (i.e., total principal vs. total interest payable) is also displayed for a better understanding of EMI payment. It displays the percentage of total interest versus principal amount in the sum total of all payments made against the loan in total. The payment schedule table showing payments made every month for the entire loan duration is displayed along with a chart showing interest and principal components paid each year. A portion of each payment is for the interest while the remaining amount is applied towards the principal balance amount. During the initial loan period, a large portion of each EMI payment is devoted to interest. With the passage of time, larger portions pay down the principal amount. The payment schedule also shows the intermediate outstanding balance for each month/year which will be carried over to the next year.

- I have a limited budget, how can I keep costs down?
- Who should sit with who?
- Should we make the bar a free bar?
- A lot of the staff are new to the company, how can we break the ice?
- The workforce are all different ages, how can we keep them all entertained?
- How can we make the event memorable?
Here we look at question 6.
How can we make the event memorable?
These suggestions are very much dependent on the event budget, but here are some top tips:
- Hire a photographer to take pictures of the whole group, of couple, teams, families etc.
- Have a table gift per person e.g. a photo frame, chocolates, a piece of company merchandise and so on.
- Inviting partners of the staff is always a popular choice, leading to a memorable event.
- Arrange to present some awards to deserving staff members. Speeches are also memorable, and motivating.
- Make sure the main areas people congregate such as the dinner tables, dance floor and the bar are close to each other or ideally in the same room. This keeps people together which heightens the atmosphere of the party.
- Have a theme e.g. fancy dress, 007, casino etc.

Aspartame ingestion and headaches
A randomized crossover trial
Citation Manager Formats
Make Comment
See Comments
To examine whether ingestion of aspartame is associated with headaches, we conducted a double-blind crossover study using volunteers with self-identified headaches after using aspartame. Of the 32 subjects randomized to receive aspartame (approximately 30 mg/kg/d) and placebo in a two-treatment, four-period crossover design, 18 completed the full protocol, seven completed part of the protocol before withdrawing due to adverse effects, three withdrew for other reasons, two were lost to follow-up, one was withdrawn due to noncompliance, and one withdrew and gave no reason. Each experimental period was 7 days long. Subjects reported headaches on 33% of the days during aspartame treatment, compared with 24% on placebo treatment (p = 0.04). Subjects who were "very sure" prior to the study that aspartame triggered some of their headaches reported larger treatment differences (aspartame = 0.37 headache-days, placebo = 0.18 headache-days; p < 0.001) than subjects who were "somewhat sure" (aspartame = 0.29 headache-days, placebo = 0.22 headache-days; p = 0.51) or "not sure" (aspartame = 0.33 headache-days, placebo = 0.39 headache-days; p = 0.51). There was no significant treatment difference in the length or intensity of headaches or in the occurrence of side effects associated with the headaches. This experiment provides evidence that, among individuals with self-reported headaches after ingestion of aspartame, a subset of this group report more headaches when tested under controlled conditions. It appears that some people are particularly susceptible to headaches caused by aspartame and may want to limit their consumption.

50 talented Postdocs will be placed in a challenging setting, where newly created teams will have 48 hours to shape and develop innovative ideas and have a fully-working proposal to pitch in front of an expert panel.
Imagine a Hackathon where 50 researchers of the Food system are called to develop their ideas and turn them into viable and sustainable projects. These Postdocs will work in teams, and they will have to take an idea from concept to market, supported by one-to-one mentoring.
The Foodathon will be an immersive, competitive, and stimulating experience. During the Foodathon researchers will be able to boost and diversify their career path, creating new networks and improving their competences/skills.
The Food system is rich in researchers with brilliant ideas that may make the difference: that's why the Foodathon is a great chance to learn how to develop a potentially disruptive idea, be it a rough sketch or an articulated plan, and formulate a viable, sustainable team project ready to hit the market.
Many researchers may not have a (complete) team: this is a further reason why the Foodathon is the place to be! Newly created teams will be the innovative unit of the Programme. After the selection stage, new teams with an optimized skills repertoire will be consolidated: skills and competencies with those of the other selected participants will be matched so to co-create teams that are optimized to reach their goals and bring innovative ideas a step further.
Are you a talented researcher, willing to impact the Food system? Apply on EIT Food Apply platform* and be an innovator, be an active part of the new generation of "researchpreneurs" in the Food system.
* The link will be activated when call opens, on the 1st January 2020
That's the spirit of our Foodathon, an intense, immersive hackathon focusing on the food sector's challenges.
The call is closed at the moment, and will open on 1st January 2020

Heidi Albin Named 2019 Lowell Milken Center Fellow
June 01, 2019
FORT SCOTT, KS – The Lowell Milken Center (LMC) for Unsung Heroes in Fort Scott, Kansas, an international educational non-profit, has awarded its prestigious Fellowship to science teacher and character education coordinator, Heidi Albin, of Complete High School in Maize, KS. Heidi will arrive in Fort Scott on June 23rd for a week of collaboration with LMC staff.
The LMC Fellowship is awarded on the basis of merit to educators who have distinguished themselves in teaching respect and understanding through project-based learning or who have the potential for this distinction. The Center selects exemplary teachers from across America and Europe, drawn from a variety of disciplines, to collaborate on projects that discover, develop, and communicate the stories of Unsung Heroes in history.
Heidi Albin, a 2017 Milken Educator, has been the science teacher and character education coordinator at Complete High School Maize (CHSM) for the past 10 years, where she teaches 9-12th grade Biology, Chemistry, Earth Science, Physical Science, Agriculture, Health, Career Skills, and Character Education. Heidi believes in making content relevant to life and develops unique, multifaceted, engaging lessons through interaction with the outdoors and the community. Heidi has helped CHSM receive recognition, both as a Character.org State and National School of Character and as the Kansas Association of Conservation and Environmental Education Green School of the Year. She has also coauthored "186 Days of Character," a yearlong character education curriculum, has implemented a facility therapy dog program, and established a handicap accessible community garden.
Heidi's passion for teaching extends beyond her school and has impacted other educators, as well. She is a member of a national 100k-in-10 Project Team which helps to improve teacher preparation. As a member of the Master Angler with Fishing's Future and Board of Directors for WILD KS, Heidi has written and implemented curriculum for unique science courses in fishing, wilderness survival and camping. Through her presentations at conferences for the Kansas Exemplary Educators Network and the Kansas Association for Teachers of Science, Heidi has shared her resources with hundreds of educators across Kansas.

A Squirrel Story
I remembered a random story today that is funny, but also provides a great lesson. We used to live in an apartment complex that was, well, past it's prime. To save money on rent, I worked emergency maintainence at night and on the weekend one week a month. Thanks to the awesome training I received on the work/study maintainence crew at Rochester College, this was an aquired skill set.
When people called, it was pretty predictable. They had no heat...they had no air conditioning...or there was water everywhere due to a toilet or a water heater or something in the vacant apartment upstairs. But one Saturday morning I received an interesting call.
A guy called and asked if I could come over to his apartment, he was hearing scratching...so I went over. Apparently a squirrel was trying to bury a nut in the ceiling of his upstairs apartment bedroom. I told him that I would have to call pest control but there really wasn't much I could do.
That's when it happened. He told me that he was a professional school student trying to study for his quarter exams and that this noise was distracting to him. He said, "I know you don't understand but I really need to consentrate and your attitude is unacceptable." And then he asked me to go on the roof and get that animal out of his ceiling.
He didn't know! He didn't know the fiery guy who was standing in front of him, or the level of education I had, or the fact that my wife was studying for the same tests. Yeah, I wasn't very nice that day. I said, "I have too much education to go up on this very thin roof (considering a squirrel can chew through it) after your pet and you're not as important as you think you are. So, call me again when the squirrel comes into your room, I'll definitely help it get out of here."
I think he was shocked...and I left...he didn't call back, but his roof was fixed the next week because I told the regular maintainence guys about it.
I wonder how people would respond to us if we stopped looking down on them and started treating them as equals? That's what Jesus did, and there is no way we were ever equal...ever.
We encounter people every day - the drive through at Starbucks and Chik-fil-a, our favorite restaurants (Mollys, Tracks, Huey's, Cafe Ecclectic), the gas station (with the cheapest gas), the grocery store (Kroger!), the home improvement store (actually if you find someone to help you in there, let me know your tricks), Walgreens (why are there so many?) and the list goes on.
I don't want to walk away from someone leaving them to think, "He didn't know..." or maybe worse "He didn't care..."
As a campus minister, I realize that many of these places employ students...and so I ask you to be extra nice to them!

Phrags definitely are different than paphs. My experience, quite limited, is that phrags like more light, and damp 'feet', EXCEPT those with caudatum parentage - they don't like wet feet. They also seem to like it warmer than my paphs, which is fairly easy to do since they are in brighter light.
Jmoney is the guru - hopefully he will answer. In the meantime - get some new potting media and pull them all out for a repot. Check roots for rot, and how wet the interior media is.... Also, Phrags will catch water at the leaf axils and can develop rot, so you don't want to get the foliage too wet.

There we go again, bucking the trends. As the U.S. Census forecasts increased graying of the agriculture industry nationwide, Oregon is growing a fresh crop of young farmers, plowing new ground for themselves and the industry.
Take Nick Moxley, for example. He's the Klamath farmer on our cover, shown muscling irrigation pipes onto part of his nearly 400 leased acres where he grows organic alfalfa, wheat, and cattle. That's what he does on the weekends, between classes. Moxley is 22 years old and a full-time student in OSU's College of Agricultural Sciences. In this issue of Oregon's Agricultural Progress, we follow Moxley and a few young, first-generation farmers who are trading their Calvin Kleins for Carhartts and making their mark in the future of farming.
We also take a look at Oregon's venerable grass seed industry and how it has transformed itself with a 90-percent reduction in field burning. This turning point has been described as one of the greatest political redirections of agriculture in the U.S., and it has reaped unexpected rewards for growers in Oregon's second-largest agricultural industry.
We explore another turning point, as Experiment Station researchers go back to the future in search of plant-based alternatives to petroleum products such as plastics, rubber, and cosmetics. A new generation of agronomists is testing new varieties of plants that had been replaced by petroleum synthetics following World War II. These new plants, and the seeds to grow them, represent new opportunities for agriculture in Oregon as the world's economy grows beyond petroleum.
And any search for new plants—and old ones, too—must include a visit to the OSU Herbarium, the largest collection of Oregon plants in the world.
As they say, things look different in Oregon. And nowhere is that more apparent than in Oregon agriculture. As Nick Moxley sagely advises, "Learn all you can and then take a risk. Otherwise you'll never make it farming."
