About Phnom Penh City
Phnom Penh city takes the name form the present Wat Phnom or Hill temple.Legend has it that in 1372 ,an old nun named Penh went to fetch the water in the Mekong river and found a dead koki tree floating down the stream .Inside the hole of the dead koki tree contained four bronze and one stone Buddha statues in it .Daun (Gandma) Penh brought the statues ashore and ordered people to pile up earth at northeast of her house and used those Koki trunks to build a temple on
The city was also previously known as Krong Chaktomuk meaning "City of Four Faces". This name refers to the junction where the Mekong, Bassac, and Tonle Sap rivers cross to form an "X" where the capital is situated. Phnom Penh the Royal capital of Cambodia.
Phnom Penh remained the royal capital for 73 years from 1432 to 1505 when it was abandoned for 360 years from 1505 to 1865 by subsequent kings due to internal fighting between the royal pretenders. Later kings moved the capital several times and established their royal capitals at various locations in Tuol Basan (Srey Santhor), Pursat, Longvek, Lavear Em and Oudong.

King Norodom's Reign: (1860), (r.1865-1904)Phnom Penh during the first ten years of king Norodom's reign was little more than a village with few huts lining the river. when Phnom Penh was re-established in 1865, it was divided into 3 villages: a Catholic
Beginning in 1870, the French colonial administration had turned a sleepy village into a city when it started to build hotels, schools, prisons, barracks, bank, public works offices, telegraph offices, Law courts, and health services buildings. In 1872, the first glimpse of a modern city took shape when the colonial administration contracted a French contractor, Le Faucheur, to construct the first 300 concrete houses for sales and rentals to the Chinese traders.
Preah Norodom had also begun. In 1895, CEEL, the first French company that produced clean water for Phnom Penh, built its first water plant at Chroy Changva. in 1897, the population of Phnom Penh city was close to 50,000 people out of a total population of the whole country of more than a 1,000,000. The population of Phnom Penh consisted of many ethnic groups such as the Chinese (22,000), Khmers (16,000), Vietnamese (4,000) and the French residents who were only numbered at about 400 people.Besides above ethnic groups, there were Malaysians, Thais, Indians, Laotians and others who called Phnom Penh their homes.Phnom Penh during the reign of H.M.

Phnom Penh during H.M. King Monivong's Reign:1927-1941King Monivong's reign was a period that Cambodia had first begun a policy of constructions. In 1928, a French company, Grands Travaux de Marseille (GTM), had been contracted to begin pumping sands from the bottom of Tonle Sap River to fill up Decho lake and other lakes in the city. The year of 1929 also seen a construction of a steel Preah Monivong Bridge. In 1932, the first railway tracts and stations from Phnom Penh to Battambang had been commissioned. The Boulevard Miche, now renamed Blvd.Preah Monivong had also been constructed.
King and Prince Norodom Sihanouk : 1941-1970 and 1993-2004.Phnom Penh under the period of Sihanouk's rule had seen the expansion and the constructions of many modern infrastructures. The City's population had also grown dramatically. The city's population had grown to 111,000 in 1942. By 1950 it had grown to 354,000 and 355,000 in 1958. By 1962, the population of Phnom Penh City reached 394,000. The city had been expanded and many infrastructures had been built. In 1958, the Blvd. Mao Tse Tung was constructed. And in 1961, the city had expanded and Tuol Kork, a new flashy modern suburb, was constructed. Other infrastructures had also been built during this period.
the Sangkum Reah Niyum Bridge, now renamed the Cambodia-Japan Friendship Bridge, was built with funds provided by Japan. Many tertiary institutions such as the Sangkum Reastr Niyum University, The Khmer-Soviet Institute of Technology, Royal Phnom Penh University, The Khmer-Soviet Institute of Technology, Royal Phnom Penh University, the Institute of Foreign Languages and many more were constructed during this period.

The Lamborghini Veneno Is Awesome…Scary, but Awesome…
It is. The Lamborghini Veneno is just awesome. Awesome looking. Awesomely fast. Awesomely rare. Awesomely expensive. Just…plain…awesome. You should want one. You really should. I do. Especially, since the Veneno brings back that sheer Lamborghini Raging Bull madness that was every present in cars like the Countach SV. But, unless you're one of the three (yes, 3) lucky people who have been allowed to buy a Veneno, you won't get one as all three are sold out. Hell, you probably won't ever even see one. But, you know what? It doesn't matter, because it is still awesome.
Okay, okay. I know I'm going a little overboard here, but just look at it. It looks like the scion of an Aventador and a Kraken. Still not convinced (you should be)? Here is a little bit about the Lamborghini Veneno.
For those who don't know, with 2013 comes the 50th anniversary of Lamborghini, an event to be celebrated, for sure. For their 30th and 40th anniversaries, Lamborghini has released some spectacular limited edition cars, the Lamborghini Diablo Special Edition 30 and the Lamborghini Murcielago 40th Anniversary, respectively. But, 50 years is kind of a big deal, with it being half a century and all. So Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann and the nice folks in Lambo's headquarters in Sant'agata Bolognese saw fit to mark this momentous occasion with a Lamborghini to top them all, the Lamborghini Veneno, a beast meant for both road and track.
Where the Sesto Elemento is a Laborghini Gallardo on SlimFast, the Veneno is a Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 on SlimFast AND steroids (somewhat akin to the Lamborghini Reventon stemming from the Murcielago). The Lambo engineers and designers started with an Aventador and its 6.5 liter V12 and upped the ante. The Veneno's carbon fiber skin, monocoque and interior were designed with weight savings mind. With a dry weight of 3,190 pounds, the Veneno is 275 pounds lighter than the Aventador. That weight, when combined with the Veneno's rein-busting 750 horses, yields a power-to-weight ratio of 4.25 pounds-per-hp. Add in Lamborghini's trademark all-wheel-drive and wind-cheating aerodynamics, and the Veneno hits a top speed of 221 mph and 0-60 in under 2.8 seconds.
Inside the car, Lamborghini's tradition of pushing the boundaries of composite materials continues. The two ultralight racing seats are made from Lambo's patented Forged Composite upholstered with CarbonSkin, an exclusive material that is soaked in resin to stabilize the fiber structure allowing the material to remain soft and light while maintaining strength. CarbonSkin clads the rest of the cockpit and headliner, as well.
Lamborghini will be revealing the first Lamborghini Veneno (Serial Number 0 of 3) on March 5, 2013 at the Geneva Motor Show. The fate of the prototype has yet to be determined, but the rest of the three-car production run has been sold at a price of €3 million ($3.9 million). Like I said, the Lamborghini Veneno is awesome. Convinced?

TAGS and TASKS: How to Design an Effective, Fun Breastfeeding Education ClassRead Now
If you are new to teaching health education classes, you may wonder how to design a class that helps maximize the chances that your students will remain engaged and, most importantly, take in and retain the concepts needed to understand the content! By remembering these two acronyms: TAG and TASKS, and completing the steps in this order, you will be able to design and, more importantly, be ready to teach ANY class.
1. Choose your Title
The first step in designing your health education class is to choose or identify your Title, the main topic of your class. At this point, this will be very much a working title--you can, and probably will, change it when you're all done writing your class. Sometimes the Title will be a given, especially if you have been asked to teach a class on a specific topic. Other times you get to choose the main topic you will teach, especially if you have your own educational outlet, such as your own business, or your job includes the responsibility to teach classes, but your employers have not specified certain classes or topics. Whether a given or self-generated, your first step is to identify the main topic of the entire class, and write your working Title, such as "Getting Started Breastfeeding."
2. Identify your Audience
As you are designing your class, the very next thing you need to consider is your target Audience. Obviously, a group of M.D.s are going to need an entirely different kind of class than a group of middle school students, even if they are learning about the same topics. While you don't want to stereotype your target audience, there are some basic principles that tend to hold true. Older, more educated audiences are interested in more "left-brained," facts-oriented presentations; whereas younger, less educated, tech-savvy audiences tend to be more interested in visual teaching tools and activities that present benefits and risks in ways that allow THEM to sort through decisions for themselves or engage in group decision-making. If you are or will be teaching to audiences predominantly composed of people of another culture or subculture, it is well worth your time to learn about their customs, beliefs, and taboos so that you do not unnecessarily offend with your presentation. As a negative example, when I was a new childbirth educator, I included videos of natural childbirths; however, the mothers were nude. To some of the conservative couples I taught, the nudity was very uncomfortable for them, and they were unable to appreciate the lovely births depicted, because the visual I had chosen turned off learning for them. For these couples, "natural childbirth" became something only "hippies" chose and had the effect of actually encouraging them to use pain medications. My objective to help them recognize the benefits of a natural birth, appreciate the natural design of the birth process, and, hopefully, consider a natural birth, completely failed. This is an example of how trying to think like your audience enhances learning, but insensitivity may completely disable learning and openness to new ideas. This is something to be aware of in breastfeeding education, since it involves... breasts! Consider your audience when using visual aids AND give them the opportunity to opt out if your visual aid includes nudity, especially in mixed male-female classes.
3. Write Goals for your learners
Once you have thoroughly considered the learning needs, learning styles, preferences, and "turn offs" for YOUR target Audience, it is time for you to set Goals for the session. These Goals, or learner-centered objectives, need to be specific things THEY should be able to accomplish by the end of the class. Do not make the mistake of setting goals for yourself, such as "I will cover the process of how human milk is made." We can probably all remember classes we once took where the instructor "covered" material, but very few actually learned it. Instead, write your Goals in terms of your learners. For example, "the learner will be able to list the three stages of human milk: colostrum, transitional milk, and mature milk." In order to determine if your learner has achieved the Goal, you should write one specific criteria that will demonstrate that the learner has accomplished the Goal. For example, one criteria for how a learner could demonstrate that they have reached the Goal of truly understanding the process of how a breastfeeding mom produces mature milk, could be, "The learner can list at least one sign for how to be reasonably sure that a breastfeeding mother has begun to produce colostrum, transitional milk, and mature milk."
4. Turn your goals into Topics
5. Think about which Activities will help your learner engage with each topic
After your have chosen your topics, you will use your topics and goals to guide you to design your Activities! This is the really fun part. Here is where you get to let your creativity run wild. Don't stifle the process by thinking too practically about your budget, what your students will pay or not pay, or other downers that will make your class too serious (i.e., boring). Most audiences will include both "right brained" and "left brained" learners, (though current research indicates--shocking--people actually do use both sides of their brains!) and people of all learning styles. So for a basic class, make sure to include activities that appeal to all types of people. If you keep your activities fun and engaging, most adult learners will willingly participate in all kinds of class activities, because, in general, they CHOSE to attend the class, so they are motivated to follow your directions in order to get to the goal of what they came for: learning. For most audiences, you will want to mix things up: include some videos / DVDs, some personal stories, some facts, some charts or posters, some lecture, some short worksheets, and some discussions. You might want to invite in a guest speaker or have a panel discussion. "Graduates" of previous classes are always popular. Class discussions are also appealing to many audiences. For more meaty topics and especially for any information you want your students to retain, handouts or booklets to take home work well, because the student can pull them out after the class to review the material. Next, estimate how much time each Activity will take so you can stay on time during the class, and make sure you have planned enough Activities, but not too many, to cover the total time you want your class to take. Whew! When you're all done designing your Activities, make sure to stop for a moment and call to mind your target audience and review if these Activities seem appropriate for your audience.
6. Fill in the Steps for each activity
Having chosen the activities that will help your students learn about each topic (and reach the learner goals), you fill in the Steps either you or your students will take to complete each Activity you chose. For a resource like a DVD, you would write Steps such as: "1. Play "Breastfeeding is Awesome" DVD. 2. Learners take notes on the benefits of breastfeeding that appeal to them most. 3. After the DVD is complete, ask learners to read their lists and talk about why that benefit appeals to them the most." For a lecture, you will need to write an outline with the points you need to cover. Here's a tip: keep your teaching notes SHORT. I may just have a major case of postpartum brain, but I find that when I'm a bit nervous in front of an audience, I need bullet points. When my lecture notes are too detailed, I tend to get lost...which makes for more embarrassment...which makes me get more lost… So stick with bullet points, and do write down any specific, important details you might tend to forget under the pressure of thirty pairs of eyes. When you're all done, again, pause for a moment and think: do these Steps lead to the Goals? If not, adjust. You may also need to adjust your time estimates or your steps to make sure you stay within the estimated total time for the entire class.
7. Keep it fun!
8. Finish Strong by adding your transitions and a student evaluation
Your last step in designing your class is to finish Strong. Assuming you've gotten this far, you will just have the finishing touches left and your class will be ready to present! Back to our race analogy. You always need to warm-up before and cool-down after running right? So it is with a class. Remember that working title? Now is the time to either verify that it is still a great title, or to change it to better reflect what your students will be learning, or make it more appealing (Keep it fun, remember?). Next, at the beginning of your class, you will want to add an Introduction--a longer warm-up, often taking the form of an Ice-Breaker question or activity in a more informal class; or your professional Introduction and credentials in a more formal class.
You've finished adding your warm-up to your class, now it's time for the cool-down. At the end of class, you want to review the goals and most important ideas in your Conclusion. For more formal classes, this can be done in a straight-forward lecture style. In less formal classes, you could consider adding one final activity or review questions to help your students recall what has been covered in the class. All classes usually appreciate one final opportunity to answer any remaining questions they might have.
Next, you want to write a much shorter warm-up and cool-down for each topic. Your topic warm-up should be a transitional sentence or question that bridges the gap from the prior topic or question so that your students know you are changing the direction of the conversation. Your topic cool-down should be a brief summary of the most important ideas they need to remember about that topic. Again, this can be accomplished lecture style, or you can ask questions that your students answer to show they've retained the most important ideas.
You've done a lot of work! You've chosen your Title, identified your Audience, written your Goals; then chosen your Topics and Activities and their Steps; remembered to Keep it Fun!, and finished Strong. There's only one more thing to do. Before they head out the door, give your students a form to evaluate their experience of your class. While it may make your knees knock, you DO want to know if there are areas you can improve, so that your future students will get more out of the class than these students did. ...And it's nice to get your own "blue ribbon" in the form of positive feedback!
LASS-E: a helpful mnemonic trick for effective breastfeeding counseling sessionsRead Now
When counseling a breastfeeding mother, it is a temptation for eager counselors to launch right into their recently studied list of possible helps for the mother's difficulties, forgetting that one of the most important ways to not only HELP a mother, leave her feeling truly supported and, most importantly, to build her confidence in her own capabilities as a mother, is to ACTIVELY LISTEN to her and to AFFIRM all the things she is doing right (and she WILL be doing lots of things "right.") LASS-E to the rescue!
"LASS-E" is a simple mnemonic--memory device--for counselors. Not meant to conjure up the dog of old TV episodes, think of it as the Irish word for a female, "lassie." The acronym breaks down this way:
The very next step in the LASS-E counseling technique is to Affirm. As mentioned above, there is no doubt MUCH that the mother is doing well, not least of which is trying to give her child her very self. Don't neglect to tell her so, because there may not be anyone else in her life who has taken the time to thank her for what she is doing for her baby. However, do not bother with insincere flattery; she will see right through that, at least on a subconscious level. Look for things about her situation that you honestly admire and choose your words wisely to build her up. If she blows off your words or even completely disagrees, still, the fact that you took the time to build her up with your words does matter and at a deeper level, encourages her to begin to believe that she IS doing many things right.
If delivered in a spirit of genuine help, not rushed, or with condescension, she will likely take your Suggestions exactly for what they are--possible helps for her difficulty, not a sign that she is or has been doing something "wrong." This is especially true if you give her the tools to solve her own problems. "Let's see what happens when you hold him skin to skin" or "Sometimes it helps if mothers try relaxing and lying back a little bit with baby lying on top--would you like to see if that works for you two?" A supportive tone of voice, genuine humility and honest care for her go very far with helping her feel not judged or shamed, but to view your counseling as what it actually should be--brainstorming possible solutions for real problems. View yourself not as a lactation magician with an impressive bag of tricks, but as a kindly older sister or aunt who's been there and has some ideas that might help. The humble counselor does not need to pull out all the ideas she possesses to prove herself worthy of the name, but realizes that a few powerful ideas that work for the mother may be all that is necessary for her to get herself and her baby back on track toward the mother's breastfeeding goals.
View yourself not as a lactation magician with a bag of tricks, but as a kindly older sister or aunt who's been there and has some ideas that might help.
Once you and the mother have decided on a path to try, Summarize what she decided. "So you are going to ask your cousin to come by tonight to watch the other children so that you can concentrate on just nursing. Is there anything else you think might help?" And then you're right back to Listening and Affirming (LASS-E need not be a technique that only goes in one direction.) But once you sense that the counseling session has ended, make sure you both have a clear sense of what was decided by summarizing what YOU heard, and asking her if she agrees that the course of action is a good place to start in solving her problem.
The last step in the counseling session is to plan to connect again in some way to determine if the plan of action worked. There is no need to plan a return visit for every problem; a phone call in a few days or a week might be all that is needed. Do make some sort of plan for how you will follow up to make sure that the mother and baby are back on track. Then make sure you follow through and Evaluate how the mother and baby are doing. Depending on the situation, it might be within the day, or the next day, a few days later, a week later, a couple weeks later, or even the next month. Part of being a good counselor is keeping your word, so DO follow up. This will help reinforce to the mother that she matters, and that helping her to breastfeed matters, something that may not be a message she is getting from anyone else in her life.

With just over a month until the European Union's (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) goes into effect, Facebook is moving its data controller entity from Facebook Ireland to Facebook USA, keeping more than 1.5 billion users out of the reach of the European privacy law. Mark Zuckerberg, who promised to apply the "spirit" of the legislation globally, is moving users located in Africa, Asia, Australia, and Latin America to sites governed by US law rather than European law.
Clearly, May 25—the day GDPR goes into effect—is a pivotal day that will have a global ripple effect well beyond Europe. It will impact how we manage and use data across the world in the Extreme Data Economy.
It does not, however, need to be viewed as a regulatory "tax" to avoid. As companies embrace business differentiating innovations, such as GPU databases, they can simultaneously meet the key requirements of GDPR.
Need a primer on a GPU database? Read a quick overview here.
The GDPR "was designed to harmonize data privacy laws across Europe, to protect and empower all EU citizens' data privacy, and to reshape the way organizations across the region approach data privacy." GDPR covers the entire EU and explicitly states that companies that fail to comply with the regulation are subject to a penalty up to 20 million euro, or 4% of global revenue, whichever is greater.
A major misconception is that the regulation applies to EU companies only; in actuality, the regulation applies to any company holding data from EU citizens.
With regards to an enterprise data strategy, there are a number of key considerations that must be addressed, including data profiling, the right to be forgotten, automated personal data processing, data pseudonymization, and data breaches. Each of these areas demands healthy consideration, balancing privacy concerns against innovation.
The GDPR exists because enterprises have not been thoughtful enough around data privacy, forcing governments (like the EU) to mandate change. Many of their offenses are much less dramatic than the salacious stories around companies like Facebook and Cambridge Analytica.
The GDPR forces us to think creatively about how to reconstitute the business to comply with regulation. Savvy enterprises will figure out how to meet these requirements by combining these efforts with new data innovation investments.
For instance, NVIDIA (NVDA) GPUs are redefining how companies translate data into insight, leveraging the massive parallel processing power of GPUs rather than CPUs. This has created a new category of GPU infrastructure, including a GPU database, to revolutionize data practices.
From a business perspective, GPU database technology accomplishes several things. A GPU database dramatically accelerates analysis of billions of rows of data, with an in-memory GPU architecture that speeds parallel processing. It can deliver results in milliseconds. It provides near-linear scalability without the need to index. It can take geospatial and streaming data and turn it into visualizations that reveal interesting patterns and business opportunities, capitalizing on the GPU's particular aptitudes, including rendering the visuals themselves. GPU databases have seamless machine learning capabilities, enabling organizations to easily leverage Google's popular Tensorflow and other AI frameworks via User Defined Functions that analyze the complete set of data. In short, the GPU foundation is a massive opportunity to build a data-powered architecture that not only allows businesses to do more with data, but also helps align with GDPR regulations.
A GPU database can also help a business comply with GDPR regulation:
The GDPR brings new responsibilities to organizations that store and process personal data. The journey to compliance should not be viewed as an effort to avoid penalties. It is an opportunity to reconstitute an organization's data strategy so that they can profit from the Extreme Data Economy.

About US
The-Central Station (TCS) provides wholesale Alarm and Video Monitoring for independent Alarm Dealers, as well as related Support Services and Products. As a division of Buckeye Protective Services (est. 1944), we offer over 20 years' experience in wholesale alarm and video monitoring for Dealers; and our management team has been doing this since 1980. We are a family owned and operated business, which is reflected in our well experienced, professional and very courteous Management Team and Emergency Alarm and Video Security Operators.
TCS is a CSAA Five Diamond and UL Listed monitoring facility. This means that our Emergency Operators have received CSAA Five Diamond training and certification. It also means that our Central Station facility, our backup and automation systems and our response operations have met and, in many cases, exceed UL standards. All of this assures you and your Subscribers that you are being monitored at a Central Station prepared to properly respond to emergencies, without interruption.
TCS is prepared to monitor most communications formats in use today. This ranges from the basic baud formats through IP, as well as 2-way audio, radio, cellular, GPS, AlarmNet, Connect 24 and many others. Our Technical and IT management has developed specialized interfaces for our Manitou Automation System, for alarms and video (if used), that basically offers "error reduction" handling for the Emergency Operators. Handling of the Alarm; and doing Video Verification if needed; is handled quickly and professionally by well trained and efficient Emergency Operators, utilizing one of the best automation packages available.
TCS Emergency Operators are highly trained and experienced in the handling of, and response to, Burglary, Fire, Holdup, Supervisory, 2-Way Burglary and PERS systems; plus many others. Over and above response to standard 2-way PERS systems, TCS Emergency Operators handle supervisory management of patients (medications, activities and so forth) through the TCS Video and 2-Way Audio & Monitoring systems. This activity has made TCS Emergency Operators very aware of PERS patients' needs and how to address and work with them. This means your PERS patients, during an alarm situation, are always handled in a caring manner. The TCS Video and 2-Way Audio & Monitoring systems also increase our ability to respond to and oversee other emergency alarms (fire, burglary, holdup and so forth). The TCS Video and 2-Way Audio & Monitoring systems also supplements 2-way GPS monitoring that can be use for PERS patients that are mobile and leave home often. I addition to PERS Subscribers, these GPS units can be used for the security of Real Estate and in-factory workers that are alone, students on campus, lone business travelers and many others.
TCS offers all of the standard supervisory services, such as Low Battery, Troubles, AC Power, Sump Pump levels, Freezer temperaturs and so forth. With the use of our 2-Way and Video Systems we also handle the access management services such as Open/Close, User Time Control, plus the normal Reports via Email or Fax and requested special services.
TCS provides our dealers with many monitoring options not offered by other Central Stations.

For starters, my Pagely review is legit. I use Pagely to host all my WordPress product sites, and I can confidently say that choosing Pagely is worth every penny you can afford to spend on WordPress hosting.
I've used a ton of different hosts in my days of working on the web and with WordPress. From iPage (yes, somewhat ashamedly) to HostGator to Bluehost (I still recommend Bluehost for price sensitive folks) to WP Engine to VPS.net to just about any other popular host you can think of, I've purchased and used. I've accumulated a bunch of knowledge from working with all of them in the past, so I hope to take that knowledge and formulate it into one giant, awesome Pagely review for you and convince you why you should choose them as your next WordPress hosting provider (erhhhmm, hosting "partner"!).
Before I get started with my Pagely review, I do want to say that I have affiliate links in this post, meaning if you purchase a Pagely package after clicking on one of the links, I may receive a small portion of that sale as a commission. This doesn't affect the content of the review, however, as I really do use Pagely for my WordPress product and other business sites!
Pagely Review Intro: Why I Use Them
I've sometimes been annoyed at reviews (especially hosting reviews) because they never explain why you would actually want to use whatever service they are recommending. That irks me because typically you are searching for a reason to use whatever you are researching, not necessarily the features (although feature highlighting is important). I want to share with you a few important reasons why I think Pagely is a superb choice for hosting your WordPress site.
- I'm big on speed and performance. Both of those matter a bunch to me because both of those things can vastly impact (both positively and negatively) the experience a visitor has on your site. Pagely is built to scale with performance and speed in mind. The underlying architecture is built on top of the Amazon Cloud, one of the most scalable platforms (if not the most) in the world. This means that your WordPress site gets access to the largest amount of resources you could possibly imagine – speed, performance and scalability. These three things alone are enough to convince me that Pagely is a superb choice for WordPress hosting.
- Pagely automates many tasks that help keep your site safe, secure and successful on the web. They do automated backups and updates for you. They include a free CDN (content delivery network) at any level plan you decide to purchase, meaning your content gets served faster to your audience. Their service is very secure (all behind-the-scenes work requires two-factor authentication + key access) with their PressARMOR implementation, and as I mentioned before, they are blazingly fast. You don't have to configure caching plugins or anything of that nature – they do it for you. Automatically.
- Their technical support is outstanding. These guys are engineers and have a highly competent support staff (Kris, Piotr and the rest of the team) that can answer any of your most technical questions. They are always speedy in their responses, and they are even gracious when I don't respond back right away (which I am guilty of). I'm confident there's not a question you can ask that these guys can't handle.
- Most importantly for me, hosting with Pagely has allowed me to sleep easy at night. I don't have to worry about my sites suffering from yet another hack attempt or denial of service attack. I don't need to worry about my server crashing when a popular review for one of my products sends a surge of visitors over to the site. I didn't need to worry about our sites going down during our record-setting Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales pushes. Pagely allows me to focus on the things I do best.
To sum it up in one simple phrase: Pagely has been an investment in my business. I think you will find Pagely to be an investment in yours, too.

Pagely Review: The Features
Let's get into the meat of the features for my Pagely review. At the time of this writing, there are 7 different plans that you can choose from, all of which are tailored to your growing needs for your budding website and business. Each and every plan comes standard with the following items:
- Unlimited number of pageviews (awesome – no restrictions on the growth of your business)
- Powered by the Amazon Cloud infrastructure
- Automatic WordPress upgrades
- Automatic backups to Amazon S3 (this is awesome – huge for security and general mishaps that you might cause)
- PressCache (their own sweet caching implementation for faster sites) with a persistent cache (Memcached or Redis)
- PressArmor (their own custom security infrastructure for their network and your site)
- SSL + SPDY support (for fast SSL implementations)
- Dedicated IP addresses
Now that we have all of the standard options listed, let's take a look at each plan and the where each differs in terms of price and features.
|Price (month)
|# of Sites
|Setup Time
|2-3 Days
|2-3 Days
|2-3 Days
|Disk Space
|Staging Sites
|Private Databases
|SSH Access
|DB Access
|HHVM Support
I understand that the features listed in my Pagely review can be somewhat overwhelming. To give you an anchor, my products use the VPS-1 package from Pagely. If you are a small business site that doesn't receive a lot of traffic (less than 10,000 pageviews a month), the Personal plan makes total sense for your site. I also have another site that runs on the Personal plan and I've not once had any issues with speed, performance or bottlenecking of any kind. In fact, I mention later in the review that average response time over 5 months is under 400ms!
If you need more than one site, the Business and Professional plans are both very good options for you. You still get the same speed that you would expect with the ability to add new sites and sustain growth in traffic and usage of your site.
If you have more highly dynamic sites or sites where your website is crucial to your business revenue (like maybe an ecommerce store), the VPS packages will make the most sense for you. If you think about it, ~$400 is a small price to pay considering the safety, security and performance you are buying. The last thing you want to do is skimp on your hosting and then worry about your site going down when you have customers waiting to buy, which is exactly what I experienced at lots of other hosts until I moved to Pagely. Their custom built VPS packages do not disappoint at all – speed, security, scalability, and peace of mind. What more can you ask from your hosting partner?
Pagely Review: Control Panel
One of my favorite things about my Pagely review is their finely tuned Atomic Dashboard. In this control panel, you have direct access to manage your applications (sites), setup staging URLs, request support and more.
When you first log in, you will be presented with a screen that looks something like the image below.
The dashboard is very clean and organized, and all of your site information is easily accessible. I've found this to be far different from most other hosting panels, which are cumbersome and tough to understand at best.
This particular plan is the Personal plan, as you can tell by the 1 site that I have created on it. From here, you can manage your sites, adjust your plan and billing details, request support and more. I've had no issues at all with this starter plan since I began using it. In fact, the site is mostly on autopilot because Pagely handles all of the updates and backups for me!
You can click on each one of your sites for management tools, such as staging URLs, site backups and site statistics (like bandwidth and CDN usage). There are also some nifty tools that you can use as well, such as their Whitescreen Eliminator process which will swiftly remove that whitescreen of death from your site so that you can fix whatever error has occurred.

Pagely Review: Support
You can also access support straight from your Atomic dashboard as well, which if I haven't already said before is absolutely phenomenal.
Pagely has done as excellent job at crafting incredibly helpful and thorough documentation, and their integration with Zendesk rocks. It's very easy to login and see any tickets that you have already created, the status of those tickets, and the ability to respond to and create new tickets.
Their support is incredibly fast, competent and helpful. These guys want to help you succeed (at least that's the feeling I get), which definitely cannot be said in comparison to many of the cheap hosting providers where you feel like you are not valued at all as a customer. Their support staff are quick to answer questions, resolve issues and provide helpful information for anything they might deem beneficial for the future.
Most of my support issues are technical, such as having SSL certificates installed or doing migrations over to their platform, but not once have I had an issue with Pagely's service or competency. Beyond the speed and performance of Pagely, their support is my next favorite "feature" of having them as my hosting partner.
Pagely Review: Blazing Fast Speed
Speed, performance and reliability were the most important things for me, and you will not be disappointed by Pagely. Of all the hosts I have used, Pagely has been by far the most consistent with blazing fast speed and performance. I've been hosting one site with them for about 5 months now, and my Pingdom Tools reports that the historical average load time is only 344ms. That is crazy fast!
You can see how fast my product sites load, even with them being style and graphics heavy. OptinMonster loads blazingly fast and so does Soliloquy.
I ran a quick test (using WebPageTest) on the OptinMonster site, and the results are awesome for a high-traffic product site with a ton of styles, scripts and graphics to boot.
The important stat from this image is the "Start Render" column – that is the amount of time it takes for the page to be viewable and usable. For first and repeat visits, the average is 569ms – incredible! That is blazing fast speed. And not only this – the site scores a 96/100 with Google PageSpeed without any extra configuration needed on my end.
I can't really find any cons in my Pagely review for any of the non-VPS plans. For my needs and the needs of sites I have hosted on those plans, Pagely has all of the bases covered. My only con would be on the VPS plans with their staging implementation. WP Engine definitely has a more intuitive staging setup. That is not to say that Pagely's setup doesn't work – it does and works very well – but it takes a little bit of work and you need to have a good understanding of Git and SSH to make it work effectively. Other than this, everything is a breeze.
Pagely Review: Final Remarks
Like I've said before, I've used a ton of different hosts over the years. I've used pretty much all of the managed WordPress hosts at one point or another, and I can confidently say that Pagely is an excellent investment for your WordPress website. It's worth the money that you spend on the plans, and I think you will be very pleased with the performance, scalability, reliability and security of your sites while on the Pagely platform.
If you still have questions about ,y Pagely review, please let me know. I'd be more than happy to help answer them so that you can make an informed purchased decision. I hope my Pagely review has been insightful and helpful and maybe even encouraged you to use them!

|8 a.m. to legal sunset. Entrance fee except for pedestrians and bicyclists. Closed on Christmas and New Year's Day.[2]
Blue Lake Regional Park is a public park in Fairview, in the U.S. state of Oregon. The 101-acre (41 ha) park, near the south shore of the Columbia River in Multnomah County, includes many covered and uncovered picnic areas, playing fields for sports such as softball, a cross country course (home course for Portland State Vikings cross country) and infrastructure related to lake recreation including swimming, boating, and fishing. Encompassing wooded areas, three ponds, and a wetland in addition to the lake, the park is frequented by migrating birds and other wildlife. Paved paths run through the park, which is near the 40-Mile Loop hiking and biking trail. Park vegetation includes cottonwoods, willows, and other trees and shrubs as well as wetland plants such as cattails.
The 61-acre (25 ha) lake, which lies in a small artificial drainage basin, has no natural inlet or outlet. Water normally enters the lake only from rain, surface runoff, and groundwater seepage. Excessive aquatic plant life and algae have sometimes restricted the use of the lake, and its maintenance includes plant control and addition of fresh water from municipal wells.
Metro, the regional government for the Oregon part of the Portland metropolitan area, manages the 101-acre (41 ha) park.[3] It lies in Fairview near the south shore of the Columbia River, 3 miles (4.8 km) northwest of Troutdale and 11 miles (18 km) east of the center of Portland in Multnomah County.[3] Marine Drive and the 40-Mile Loop hiking and biking trail pass north of the park, between it and the river.[4] Northwest of the park is McGuire Island, in the Columbia River at 45°33′49″N 122°27′54″W / 45.5637302°N 122.4650921°W,[5] while Chinook Landing Marine Park lies to the northeast across Marine Drive at 45°33′35″N 122°26′34″W / 45.5598414°N 122.4428696°W.[6] South of Blue Lake beyond Interlachen Lane is Fairview Lake at 45°33′00″N 122°26′54″W / 45.5501194°N 122.4484250°W,[7] which drains into the Columbia Slough.[8]
William Clark of the Lewis and Clark Expedition stopped here on his return trip in April 1806, and learned from members of the Nichaqwli (or Nechacokee or Ne-cha-co-lee) of the Willamette River. The site was a private park from the 1920s to 1960 when Multnomah County purchased it.[9] Metro took over the operation of Multnomah County's parks on January 1, 1994, and received ownership of them in 1996.[10] A dance hall existed until after Multnomah County's takeover.
Amenities include public restrooms, wheelchair accessibility for most areas, trails, parking, sheltered picnic areas and tables, interpretive signs, and concessions.[11] Activities at the park include hiking, biking, cross country running, swimming, boating, fishing, wildlife viewing, volleyball, basketball, disc golf,[12] archery, and softball.[11] The park has a water-spray playground of about 3,500 square feet (330 m2) that uses municipal well water that is treated and recycled at the park.[13] Sculptures at the west end of the lake commemorate former Chinook villages along the Columbia River.[2] For a fee, Metro offers the use of a 2,080-square-foot (193 m2) structure called The Lake House for banquets, conferences, receptions, recitals, and weddings.[14] The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife stocks Blue Lake annually with trout.[2]
Wetland plants near ponds north and west of the lake include cattails and rushes that provide habitat for marsh birds such as red-winged blackbirds. Swallows are common in summer, and American goldfinches and other migratory birds visit the park in large number. Cottonwoods, alders, dogwoods, willows, and conifers grow in the park as do many shrubs including elderberries, spiraea, and Oregon-grape. The park is frequented by muskrats, voles, raccoons, and the occasional coyote.[11]
The lake, which covers 61 acres (25 ha) of the park, lies within its own drainage basin of 128 acres (52 ha), bounded on the north by a levee along the river and by the raised bed of Interlachen Lane on the east and west and a sandstone ridge on the south. Lying 14 feet (4.3 m) above sea level, the lake measures 0.9 miles (1.4 km) along its east-west axis and 0.12 miles (0.19 km) along its north-south axis. Although its maximum depth is 24 feet (7.3 m), about half of the lake is 10 feet (3.0 m) deep or less. Its shoreline totals 2 miles (3.2 km).[3]
Having no surface inlet, the lake receives water naturally only from rain, surface runoff, and groundwater seepage. In addition, water from municipal wells is sometimes pumped into the lake during the dry season; otherwise the lake level might fall as much as 30 inches (76 cm) in late summer. Three small ponds, connected to the lake and to one another by culverts, lie just north of the lake at its west end. Outflow from lake and ponds occurs only when workers release water through a concrete weir to Salmon Creek, in a separate drainage basin to the east. From there the water flows into the Columbia River.[3]
The closed nature of the lake contributes to reduced water quality. Invasive aquatic plants such as Eurasian watermilfoil and curlyleaf pondweed have sometimes restricted use of the lake for swimming, fishing, and boating.[15] In 1998, the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) added the lake to its list of impaired water bodies because it violated the state's standard for alkalinity and supported too many aquatic weeds and algae.[15] As of June 2008, efforts to control weeds without damaging favored plants and other aspects of the lake were continuing.[16]

Scratched by the family dog's teeth, as the playful pet greeted him, a pipe-layer developed deadly sepsis and – having already lost his feet - will be having both legs amputated in the New Year.
Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Harley, left a centimetre long scratch, like a paper cut, on Barry Wallace's right arm, after jumping up, excitedly, as he came through the door at his mum, Wendy's house.
Barry, 48, of Nottingham, East Midlands, thought nothing of the incident in August 2015, saying: "Harley had been Mum's dog for five years. He's really playful and was excited to see me, because I often took him for walks.
"He jumped up and scratched my arm with his teeth. It was just a tiny scratch, the size of your fingernail. It drew blood, but it was so small that I didn't give it another thought. He was excited to see me and it was just like a papercut."
After spending a few hours with his retired mum, he returned to the home he shared with his cleaner girlfriend, Naomi Watt, 32, where, later that evening, he began to shiver.
Naomi said: "We thought he'd eaten something dodgy, or had a stomach bug, so he went to bed.
"But the next day he was getting worse and felt really ill. I was starting to panic that he wasn't right.
"His face had gone a bit purple and he was in agony."
Calling 999, 23 hours after being scratched by the dog, Barry was rushed to the city's Queen's Medical Centre by ambulance.
Naomi continued: "His feet and part of his nose and ears were turning black, so he was taken to A&E and then onto the intensive care unit.
"Doctors had no idea what was wrong with him. It was in no way a savage dog bite, so no one even envisioned it could have caused it."
By the next day, Barry had deteriorated so much, he was transferred to the intensive care unit at Nottingham City Hospital because his kidneys had failed and he needed specialist care there, where he was put in an induced coma, so his body had less work to do.
"I thought he was going to die. His legs had gone completely black and part of his arms, too," Naomi recalled.
Doctors told Barry's four adult children from a previous relationship, he had contracted capnocytophaga - a bacteria which lives in the mouths of dogs and cats and, in rare cases, spreads to humans through bites, scratches, or close contact, causing illness.
He also had sepsis, a life threatening condition when, in response to an infection, the body turns on its own tissues and organs.
Praying for Barry – her partner-of-12-years, who she had met in a local shop – to live, Naomi held a five-week vigil at his bedside, only to receive more devastating news, that he needed his feet and, at a later date, his legs amputated, because of the deadly blood poisoning.
She said: "I was devastated. But seeing what a bad state Barry's feet were in, I knew there was no coming back from it."
Brought out of his coma on October 4, 2015, after six weeks, to go under the knife, doctors told Naomi their plan.
"Barry couldn't believe what had happened to him when he came around," Naomi added.
Discharged that November, following the double amputation, wheelchair-bound, Barry could no longer work.
In the meantime, Wendy, 62, devastated by what had happened, took her dog to the RSPCA to be rehomed.
Naomi added: "I know it wasn't the dog's fault, but it's one of those things that's happened that has changed everything.
"It wasn't a savage bite, but it's destroyed our lives and turned things upside down."
Barry, who is forced to crawl around his house, as he awaits a final operation to amputate both his legs below the knee in January, after which he hopes to get prosthetics said: "Before this, I was working every day and had a proper life. Now I can't walk and it's ruined everything.
"If it wasn't for Naomi and my children, I'd dead by now. They have been so supportive.
"Naomi cares for me and I couldn't have done this without her."

HAVERFORD, Pa. - Franklin & Marshall's women's soccer team battled Haverford on the road Saturday but came up short in a 3-1 defeat in Centennial Conference (CC) competition.
The loss dropped the Diplomats to 1-5-1, 0-2 CC while the Fords improved 4-2, 2-0 CC.
Haverford struck first in the game's 22nd minute when a through pass led to a one-on-one opportunity for the Fords. Grace Mathis took advantage of the chance, beating F&M's goalkeeper and putting her team in front at 1-0.
F&M's defense buckled down from there and held Haverford scoreless through the remainder of the opening frame as the Fords entered halftime with a 9-4 lead in shots and a 7-1 advantage in corners.
The 1-0 Haverford lead held until the 65th minute when the Fords' tacked on with a short cross in the box that led to a goal from Sydney West.
With just four minutes remaining in the second half, F&M cut into the deficit with Kirsten Heine's second score of the season. Ryan O'Rourke sent a short cross to Heine, who fired a shot from six yards out to make it a 2-1 game.
However, Haverford put the contest out of reach for good in the closing seconds when Mia Reyes beat the Diplomats' goalkeeper in another one-on-one opportunity for the two-goal win.
Overall, the shot count favored the Fords at 18-9, as well as corners at 10-3. Allison Klei and Sam Springer paced the F&M offense with two shots each.
Diplomat goalkeeper Tara Hessenthaler (1-2) suffered the loss despite her five-save effort on the day. Haverford's Hanna Friedrich (3-0) earned the win after recording one save in 45 minutes of competition.
F&M returns home on Wednesday, hosting Dickinson for a 5:00 p.m. match at Tylus Field.

Every Monday for the past 7 months at Champion's QUEST, the same group of 7 youth soccer girls train on their speed, power, strength, and confidence together. These 7 fast and fierce female youth soccer players enjoy taking their athleticism to the next level and challenging each other along the way. They have goals they want to accomplish and working out together allows them to accomplish those goals together.
Through summer vacations, club season, and ODP tournaments, these 7 youth soccer players always make their soccer athleticism their top priorities in their busy lives. They have goals to play on their High School teams, get the opportunity to compete for a collegiate soccer team, and even the US Women's National Soccer Team. Looking back over the past 7 months, each girl has accomplished their short term goals of gaining speed and strength. Here's a closer individual look at each youth female soccer player of the "Fast & Fierce 7" (in alphabetical order.)
#1 ALINA TIRADO – Alina started training at Champion's QUEST eager to be challenged as much mentally as she was going to be challenged physically. With raw natural talent, she picked up on proper training technique quickly. All that was needed was a rise in confidence to help push her abilities on the soccer field with her Cypress FC club team. Being the youngest on her team, Alina has learned to push past her age and use her athletic speed and strength to increase her contribution to her soccer team. Alina plays outside midfield and works hard each week to increase her speed to take on defenders. She also has been working on her leg strength to add power to her crosses and her shots at the goal. Alina is always constantly is looking to push herself, she even likes to spend extra time in the gym to make sure she is competing at her best. With her mental focus on pushing her body physically and mentally, it will be exciting to see where Alina's fitness is in another 7 months.
#2 ANALISA GJONOVICH – Back in July 2012, Analisa began training to increase her physical strength on the soccer field and improve her quickness when taking on defenders. She took a short break in the summer of 2013 and then came back to train with the Fierce & Fast 7 this past April. Analisa has had a long history with Champion's QUEST since her older sister, Adriana "Big A" trained here as a youth soccer player and now has a Cal State Fullerton Soccer banner waving in the gym with her name on it. Analisa is following in Big A's footsteps of keeping the training aspect in her life while she continues to push her soccer IQ on the So Cal Blues ECNL club team. Her hard work in the gym has helped her with her success on the soccer field leading to her continual recognition in the community. Analisa was recently recognized by her school, Mc Auliffe Middle School, in their Student Spotlight in the PTA Newsletter sent out to the parents of students at the school. She will be 1 of 7 California youth soccer players sent to Boca Raton, Fl this month for an Olympic Development camp. Each Olympic camp she attends helps her towards achieving her goal of playing for the US Women's National Team.
#3 CASSIE HODGE – Cassie is a tall defensive midfielder with an ability to control the ball in the air and make quick decisions with the ball on the ground. Some aspects of speed and power did not come easy to Cassie but through the weekly training sessions at Champion's QUEST, she learned to set her nerves aside and focus on improving through every repetition of every exercise. Cassie also wanted to make fast improvements because high school try-outs were this past summer at LB Poly High School and she wanted to be in her best fitness to impress Coach Collins. Her endless hours in the gym and on the soccer field rewarded her with the opportunity to play with the Varsity soccer team during the LB Poly summer soccer tournament. Cassie also was making great improvements with her club team Cypress FC when she rolled her ankle pretty bad in a soccer tournament. Instead of allowing the injury to bring her attitude down, Cassie took some needed rest and then came back full force to training in preparation for the club season. She performed very well this season in the midfield and will take that progress into the high school season coming up.
#4 LEILA HIJAZI – Back in September, Leila was our weekly success story for her overall improvements in her speed, core strength, and dedication to training over the past 2 years at Champion's QUEST. In 2014, Leila has grown at least 4 inches and has not let the growth stop her ability to gain speed and power. Leila plays in the midfield on her Cypress FC club team and works hard to lead her team to victory each weekend. She has grown mentally a lot in the past year as she likes to be seen as a captain on the soccer field and brings her leadership skills to the gym with her
teammates. Leila has excellent running form and mechanics for squats, lunges, and other power lifting exercises. She loves to be challenged and always has a bright smile on her face through all the sweat. Read more about Leila…
#5 LINDSAY KELLOGG – Lindsay's older sister Leah was already training at Champion's QUEST when Lindsay decided to join. Being a goalkeeper for the Cypress FC club team, Lindsay has different responsibilities than her field teammates and different needs in her physical and mental training. From her initial testing, Lindsay is a naturally talented athlete that could play multiple sports if she wanted to. Her biggest hurdle to overcome was to coordinate her raw talent in her growing body and keep a positive mindset with her growing body through the hard training sessions. Lindsay's training environment needs to be equally mentally challenging as physical, which is probably why she enjoys being a goalkeeper. She has one of the hardest positions on the soccer team and at 13 years old, she has to start gaining more mental control over her opponents. She is always looking to spend extra time in the gym or on the pitch to perfect her goalkeeping skills. Her confidence in her own abilities have grown immensely since she has increased her athleticism in every fitness test. As Lindsay prepares for high school next year, she will be one of the top goalkeepers to watch out for in Orange County.
#6 NICOLE SOTO – Nicole started training at Champion's QUEST in January 2014 along with her older sister Ashley. With previous speed and strength training, Nicole loves to be active in fitness and improve her athleticism for herself and soccer. If she's not here at the gym, you could find her in extra soccer skills sessions or running at the beach. With experience with the youth national team coaches, Nicole loves to showcase her speed and excellent defending skills. Besides being one of the Fierce and Fast 7, Nicole continually works on her strength and using her mental toughness to shut down her opponents. She has a lethal corner kick that has assisted several goals this past club season for her Slammers ECNL team. Following in her big sister's footsteps, she will continue to train throughout her 8th grade year in preparation for high school try-outs next summer to make the Los Alamitos high school Varsity team. With her determination, hard work ethic, and aggressive mindset, Nicole will continue to show that she is a top defender over the next couple years in the tough ECNL league and in front of college coaches.
#7 SARA RUBINELLI – Sara is the other LB Poly Freshman in the group and came in the most petite one. Sara's goals included gaining more speed and muscle mass to shut down any forward that comes her way. She has worked hard on gaining more muscle these past 7 months and recently hit the "3 digit" weight on the scale. Sara is a very aggressive defender and helps lead her team from the back. Whether she is taking free kicks or talking to her teammates on the field, Sara has a presence on the field showcasing her leadership and confidence. Need visual proof of her confidence against her opponent, check out her scare on her forehead that proves she does not back down from any challenge. Her quickness and speed have improved allowing her to defend easier and help start the attack. It is enjoyable to watch her conquer her nerves in the gym and then use that mental toughness on the field. This high school season coming up will be a great opportunity for her to showcase her skills against older opponents. Besides challenging herself in the gym, Sara and teammate Cassie, take their classroom education seriously in the CIC program at Poly high school. They both enjoy academic challenges and can maturely manage their time in their busy lives.
#8 MAKAYLA MORAGA – Makayla is joining the Fierce & Fast 7 at Champion's QUEST next week. With her initial testing done, she will need to work on her strength and nutrition habits to help push her to the next level in soccer. She has tremendous speed, it will be great to see her grow with that speed and build her confidence around it. The girls are looking forward to having her in the group and pushing each other. Fun fact: Soccer runs strong in Makayla's family, her older brother Chris Moraga is the Assistant Coach for the Collegiate Women's Soccer Program at Whittier College.
With each girl's personal goals, it is a pleasure to watch them support each other through the difficult training sessions and grow as a team; as well as, individually.

Jean Valjean is the central character of Victor Hugo's ever-popular Les Miserables, but we don't really "meet him" until "Book Second" of Volume I. In Chapter VI, entitled "Jean Valjean," we learn about his background (and why he was imprisoned nineteen years).
In his early life, Jean Valjean is a tree-pruner, like his father before him. The "peasant family" - so designated by Hugo - is poor and lives in the small town of Faverolles (located in the Brie region of northern France). Jean Valjean, who is named after his father, can neither read nor write before he becomes an adult.
His sister, named Jeanne after their mother, is older than her brother and eventually has seven children.
Madame and Monsieur Valjean both die young. She develops an untreated case of "milk fever" (called "Brucellosis" ever since its cause was discovered in 1886), and he sustains fatal injuries from a tree fall.
After his brother-in-law also dies, Jean Valjean - now aged 25 - is the sole supporter of his family. He does not relish that role.
On a winter night in 1795, with worries about feeding seven children (ages 1 through 8) weighing on his mind, the out-of-work Valjean goes to the town of Faverolles. The baker - Maubert Isabeau - hears a strange sound and realizes someone has broken the window of his shop. He catches Valjean who is thereafter tried for breaking the window and stealing a loaf of bread.
Valjean is sentenced to hard labor - working as a heavily chained galley slave (known as a "forçat" in French) - in the southern port town of Toulon. He is given prisoner number 24,601 and begins serving his term of five years inn 1796. Because he tries to escape several times, fourteen more years are tacked onto his sentence.
He is released, on parole, during October of 1815.
Victor Hugo mentions the case of another man - Claude Gaux - who was long-imprisoned for stealing a loaf of bread. Before Hugo wrote Les Miserables, he created a character called "Claude Gueux." The work is listed, among other places, in The Publishers' Weekly for September 26, 1896 (see page 536).
In this audio clip, Carole Bos reads a chapter from Les Miserables, Volume I - Book Second - Chapter VI (entitled "Jean Valjean"). As you listen, consider these topics.
Is there a difference between "helping out" and "taking responsibility?"
Is stealing ever justified or excusable?
Are prison sentences always fair?
Does poverty tend to cause crimes of desperation?
Les Miserables, Volume I, Book Second, Chapter VI - "Jean Valjean"
By Victor Hugo
As you listen to Carole Bos in this audio clip, you can follow along by reading the story online. See the translation by Isabella Hapgood (at Project Gutenberg), which is opened to "Jean Valjean."

So, I'm not really posting this to review the Michael Teperson Feathered Flute Bag – I think you'd really have to see it in person to give it a fair shake, since it's so odd (I mean…rooster feathers?). I'm posting because sometimes, us handbag people associate certain bags (or types of bags) with certain things or events. At least I do. So when I was paging through Vivre today, I came across this bag and immediately thought of Sex and the City. Circa season 5 (well, maybe 6), while Carrie is dating Burger (well, about to be sticky-noted by him) and they're going to go to Smith's play in Brooklyn.
He wants to go on his motorcycle, because he's an insecure dude trying to be masculine, and she's in her new Prada dress and has her hair fixed and DOESN'T want to go on the motorcycle. To make the idea that much more ridiculous, the wardrobe department gave here a clutch with several feet of, uh, stuff hanging from it. I think it was beading in that particular case. At any rate, this bag is that type of bag – the one you carry when you're wearing shoes so high you can't really walk in them and you expect to be doing nothing but sitting and being awesome for the entire night. And for that, I think it is fabulous. Buy through Vivre for $950.
P.S. Please consider supporting our small, bag-loving team by clicking our links before shopping or checking out at your favorite online retailers like Amazon, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, or any of the listed partners on our shop page. We truly appreciate your support!

|Rhodes athletics photo
Men's basketball head coach Mike DeGeorge has resigned his position at Rhodes College to take over the helm of NCAA Division II Colorado Mesa University.
DeGeorge, who has guided the Lynx for the last eight years while acquiring a 110-96 overall record as his teams went 62-40 from the 2010-11 season until now. In just his second season DeGeorge took the Lynx from a 7-18 record to 18-9 while producing a 12-win conference record, the most in 20 years for the program.
During his tenure with the Lynx, DeGeorge and staff won three conference championships with they garnered the coveted Southern Athletic Association tournament championship for the first time in 2017, earning them a trip to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in 24 years. Prior to his time in Memphis, DeGeorge was the head coach at Eureka from 2000-04 and at Cornell from 2004-09.
DeGeorge will take over the Mavericks who went 11-17 on the year this past year. CMU is a member of the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference with members from Colorado, Nebraska, New Mexico, South Dakota and Utah.
"We're fortunate to have found someone of Mike's integrity joining our staff. He is a person of high quality and we are looking forward to the impact and positive growth that he will have on our student-athletes' lives," Rooks said.
A search for Rhodes' next head basketball coach will begin after the college hires a new athletic director. Information on the posting will be made available once it has been received.

Meet Jodi. She is Beauty Revived.
Jodi is an inspiration of strength, hope and faith. Before becoming the beautiful mother that she is now, she went through a long journey of infertility struggles that led to disappointment, confusion and sadness but through it all she never lost hope. She never gave up and said, "I knew that there was something that I needed to learn from this." And so she began her journey into holistic health to figure out what she could do from the inside out to help increase her chances of pregnancy. This journey turned into a passion, which has led her to become the holistic health coach she is today – gifting people with the knowledge to feel their best through food and lifestyle changes.
With her new passion and career to keep her busy, she still kept her faith, never lost hope and "had a sense that everything would work out the way it was supposed to." A year ago her sister, Kelly, came to her with the ultimate gift that would finally give Jodi and her husband a chance at having a child of their own.
In the words of her sister, Kelly:
"Jodi has influenced me in so many ways over the last 35 years. While she always was the "bossy" older sister, her confidence in what she wants and her desire to share the truth with people and initiate positive change has been inspiring. She has motivated me to investigate my passions, my health and has walked along with me giving advice and always making the journey more fun! Going on long walks together has been one of our ways to spend quality time this last decade or so. It was on these walks that I came to understand Jodi's struggle of not knowing if she'd ever become a mom. She never let it rule her mind or heart, but it was obviously a painful trial she endured for many years. I remember the day she received the call that the first attempt at IVF was unsuccessful. There was nothing to say as I stood there with my stroller and my first-born son who had been with us that day. It was years, and many attempts later, before the time came for me to offer to be her gestational carrier. I knew I wanted to and knew I would if the timing played out. Sure enough after my 3rd baby, the time came for me to make that offer.
Carrying and delivering my healthy, beautiful nephew was an incredible experience. I knew that all I could do was offer and that God would create a life if He chose to. I always felt that this was a right path and I am honored that Jodi and her husband Heath trusted me to carry it out. We will never be the same after experiencing this journey together. A beautiful, joy-filled, inspiring ambassador for true health and true purpose describes my sister. And now, adding to that list the title, "Mom." There's no greater name I love to hear for her. Dalton is a true miracle and I will cherish my role in his life forever."
