When purchasing a home, one thing most buyers want is a home inspection. This helps the home buyer understand what they are getting and any potential pitfalls that may await. It can also save them from expensive surprises later either when something breaks, or they prepare to sell their home years later.
Your choice of inspector is important. Experience and skill level among inspectors vary greatly. There's no single standard for the nation's estimated 20,000 to 25,000 home inspectors. Some home inspectors have only baseline training while others have mechanical or structural engineering degrees and decades of being top-notch home sleuths.
A roof inspection is a good example. Some will inspect the roof from the ground using a pair of binoculars, while others will bring a ladder, crawl up on the roof regardless of the temperature, and give your potential home's roof a thorough review. On a hot summer day one inspector may poke your head into the attic space and look around with a flashlight, while a more conscientious inspector will actually brave the stifling heat and walk around the attic and look at electrical wiring, roof joists, beam integrity and other potential hot spots.
We have used a number of inspector over the years but the one I now recommend is Anasazi Home Inspection. When our home suffered significant damage by a tornado in 2008, my husband and I called Anasazi to inspect the damage on our own home and work with the insurance company to determine the scope of work that was needed for repairs. Their lead inspector is actually a licensed structural engineer and has many years experience working on home repairs and home building. In addition, my home buyers have been extremely pleased with them.
Just to clarify, federal law prohibits real estate professionals from collecting referral fees (or other things of value) for simple referrals. I refer industry professionals such as home inspectors, staging companies, mortgage companies and home repair contractors simply because I know them and have used them in the past and trust their work.

Four Installments
The three most important things to remember about the new system are:
- There will be no effect for the majority of property owners who pay all of their taxes in December, so that they can itemize the deduction on their Federal income tax
- The four due dates will be: January 31st, March 31st, May 31st, and July 31st. Taxpayers can pay whatever they like at any time as long as they meet the accumulated minimums by those due dates
- All payments on current taxes will be made to the City Treasurer; no longer will taxpayers pay the city for one installment and the county for the other.
Depending on the specific bill, it is generally not a matter of taking your total taxes and dividing by four. Special charges, credits, and other factors will determine the exact amount of each installment. To help explain all of these variations, please review the Frequently Asked Questions and Scenarios. Property owners can expect their tax bill the first week of December.
Do you still have a question that was not answered? Please call the City Treasurer's Office at (608) 266-4771.

Dick Van Dyke has been a Hollywood treasure for decades, and diners at a Santa Monica, CA, restaurant recently got to witness the legend in action.
The Mary Poppins star stopped by a Denny's with his a cappella group, The Vantastix, for a bite to eat. The group then surprised diners with a performance of "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang," the hit song from his 1968 movie of the same name. The 90-year-old star, who sounds just as amazing as he did in his heyday, caused quite the commotion in the eatery, with diners capturing the impromptu performance on their camera phones.
The lucky diners gave the icon and his fellow singers a rousing round of applause when they wrapped up their impressive performance. Nothing like breakfast with a free show, right?

Concerns for Online Payments
The chief retracts to online payments are concerns over secrecy and the possible action of identity stealing. Luckily, there are a lot of precautions open to protect your delicate individual data from going down into the wrong hands.
You are able to guard yourself against personal identity theft by applying computer virus security software system and a firewall on your computer. You should as well be sure that you post your credit card data across a safe host. Your web browser will advise you while a host is safe by displaying a lock or key image. Additionally, the web address on a protected web site is generally denominated by the prefix "https" rather than "http." Retail merchant do their role by applying data encoding, which enciphers your data in such a manner that just the key bearer could decipher it.
Secrecy concerns apart, a few people just dislike doing online payments. They feel the arrangement too long and do not need a lot of logs in and passwords to recall. Other people merely choose the acquaintance of writing cheques and leaving out envelopes in the post. Disregarding these concerns, online payment will probably carry on to grow in fame.

Norman Rockwell Museum Presents "Hanna-Barbera: The Architects of Saturday Morning"
Stockbridge, MA, August 17, 2016—Before the rise of basic cable, Saturday mornings for many children in America were spent watching cartoons on one of three available television channels. From 1958 through the 1980s, a majority of those cartoons bore the imprint of Hanna-Barbera. Creating scores of popular series such asThe Yogi Bear Show, The Flintstones, The Jetsons, Jonny Quest, and Scooby-Doo, Hanna-Barbera was an animation powerhouse and its bountiful creativity is beloved to this day. Norman Rockwell Museum will pay tribute to the art of the award-winning studio with the new exhibition Hanna-Barbera: The Architects of Saturday Morning, on view November 12, 2016 through May 29, 2017.
"We are thrilled to present the first museum exhibition on the work of Hanna-Barbera," notes Jesse Kowalski, the Museum's Curator of Exhibitions. "This show will provide a comprehensive look into the animation team that collaborated for more than 60 years. William Hanna and Joseph Barbera, with a group of the most gifted animators and writers in the business, created thousands of memorable characters over the years. They brought animation from the movie theater into the home, forever changing the landscape of American television and popular culture."
"This exhibition continues our look at visual storytelling in its many forms," adds Museum Chief Curator Stephanie Haboush Plunkett. "Illustration and cartoons are the people's art, and we look forward to further exploring their creatively-rich history."
Jayne Barbera, daughter of Joseph Barbera and long-time producer at Hanna-Barbera, notes, "I worked for Hanna-Barbera Productions for thirty years alongside these two gentlemen. To be in a room with both of them at the same time was to experience an extraordinary genius. We were able to create happiness, adventure, and joy in the process of entertaining children."
Hanna Barbera: The Architects of Saturday Morning will focus primarily on the golden years of the studio—from the premiere of their first cartoon, The Ruff and Reddy Show, in 1957 and The Huckleberry Hound Show in 1958 to the debut of Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! in 1969. Hanna and Barbera's early work on Tom and Jerry will be explored, in addition to the scores of TV and film animation and live-action projects created by the studio between 1970 and 2001. Included within the exhibition will be original animation art, sketches, model sheets, photographs, and archival materials that detail the process of bringing the studio's creations to life. Also included in the exhibition, Hanna-Barbera-related toys and other commercial products, and an interactive installation that will draw from the vast library of sound effects created by the studio. An exhibition video, produced by Norman Rockwell Museum, will include commentary from original Hanna-Barbera animators Tony Benedict, Jerry Eisenberg, Willie Ito, and Bob Singer. An exhibition catalogue will include a foreword by Jayne Barbera, daughter of studio founder Joe Barbera, and essays by animation historians Jerry Beck and Michael Mallory.
Hanna Barbera: The Architects of Saturday Morning was developed in partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products and has been sponsored, in part, by Keator Group, LLC.
Hanna-Barbera Productions was formed in 1957 by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera, two successful animators from MGM Studios. As a result of their work on the Tom and Jerry animated film shorts, MGM received seven Academy Awards for animation. Hanna and Barbera left MGM when the studio stopped production on animated films. Capitalizing on the changing viewing habits of audiences, the partners achieved immediate success on TV with The Huckleberry Hound Show and Yogi Bear in 1958, followed by the groundbreaking prime-time series, The Flintstones, in 1960. Throughout the next 30 years, Hanna-Barbera produced over 200 individual cartoon series for television. Eventually absorbed by Warner Bros., the studio's animation legacy remains available in syndication and on DVD, and its impact on popular culture can be seen in everything from Fred Flintstone hawking vitamins and Fruity Pebbles cereal, to comic books and live-action movies featuring such characters as Scooby-Doo.

Hope's Song (Lamentations 3:22-29; Mark 5:21-43)
Some of you grew up singing the old favourite song "Great Is Thy Faithfulness" as I did. The title and some of the words draw on a biblical passage that stands out as something different in the midst of a complex response to tragedy that is the Old Testament Book of Lamentations. The five poems of this collection are laments that respond, at a deeply visceral and personal level, to the tragedy of the Fall and Destruction of Judah in 587 BCE that literally tore their highest values to shreds. They didn't believe that they could lose their country by betraying their values, but they did. Since four of the five poems in this collection progress, section by section, through the Hebrew alphabet concerning this grief, they provide an A to Z (or aleph to tau) of grief and lament. Indeed, it's almost as though these A to Z's of grief and lamentation were intended to inspire responses to tragedies well beyond the one that birthed them. One of my favourite book on Lamentations is called Lamentations and the Tears of the World (by Kathleen O'Connor, which I recommend) who sees this clearly. She holds that Lamentations gives voice, not only to the tears of ancient Judah, but those of the world.
What is the worst thing that has ever happened, or is happening, to you, or to us? Only you can answer for you, but for me, it is the polarization, unkindness, and lack of charity that is consuming us by teaching us to fear and then give us enemies as foci of that fear, and, finally, to morph that fear into hate. The starkly realistic images of torture, devastation, rape, violence, and desolation in Lamentations are intended to be grist for your own imagined response. In the middle of the five chapters of despair, tears, anger, and hopelessness are these words: "But this I call to mind, and therefore I have hope."
In that little English word "but" is contained all the bad things that have ever happened and still happen. In contrast to the bitterness, fear, and anger that disaster, tragedy, yes, and villains bring out of us all there is "but." There is "nevertheless." On the other side of life's ledger is a thing called "hope," as a slender counter-balance to the numbing reality of the dust of tragedy in life. Some of you will know these lines from Emily Dickenson:
Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune–without the words,
And never stops at all…
Now hope is not the same thing as actual rescue, recovery, or wholeness. Hope is not "there, there, you'll be all right." Hope does not insult the intelligence of sufferers by trying to explain life by blaming ourselves or the devil. Hope is not even sending our thoughts and prayers to those who suffer. In fact, we read, later in this same biblical poem "Is it not from the mouth of the Most High that good and bad come?" What remembrance is it that summons fragile, feathery, inexplicable hope in the midst of the worst? Just this:
The steadfast love of the LORD is never over, God's mercies never run out; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
Please grasp that the poet does understand that hope is not deliverance, and is not saying that reciting this theological affirmation will make it all better, and make the hurt stop, or take away the disasters of life. Life isn't that simple. It's not about repeating the words of a particular prayer or going through this or that religious act. Hope is not deliverance! This poet did not claim an experience of God's steadfast love at this point, nor were God's unending mercies, renewed daily, something well-known. Indeed, there are two and a half chapters of responses to tragedy both before and after these words that show the ethereal, "feathery" nature of hope. It's conflicted, fragile, and not easy. But even the remembrance of God's steadfast covenant love and loyalty, causes the fluttering of hope as it sings the tune of mercy, but with no words, of the far off possibility of healing. That's hope: a claiming of God's goodness arising out of the ashes of the worst. That's it from the inside.
The Gospel Lesson this morning gives us two signs pointing to such hope. Last week we spoke of Jesus and the disciples in the same boat as they encountered storms and dangers sailing to the other side of the Lake of Galilee where the outcasts were. On the other side, in the first section of chapter 5, which we didn't read today, is the remarkable story of a deeply troubled man named Legion (in that day it was called demon possession) to whom Jesus brought not only hope, but also deliverance. In the passage we did read, Jesus and the disciples cross back to the side on which they started and find the need for hope and wholeness no less real at home. Mark has put two healing stories together by burying one within the other. At the beginning and the end, we find that Jesus is involved in healing the daughter of an important Jewish official in his local synagogue whose name was Jairus. Jesus actually ended up raising this twelve year old from the dead. Buried inside the story of the raising of Jairus' daughter is another one; the woman with the hemorrhage, and I want to talk about her in a few minutes.
We might think that the point of all of these stories is that Jesus is powerful, that he can work miracles; mighty acts with "wow value." That's not why Mark offers these stories to disciples struggling for hope in his day and ours. If it were just the miraculous that was important, Jesus would have been just one of many wonder-workers contemporary with him. We know about several of these through secular sources from the time.
To understand the point of these stories, we need to listen to what anthropologists are telling us about ancient Palestinian society (and other similar ones). Such societies operated with key values of "shame and honour." The people who were "successful" in society were those who knew how to win honour. Those who were "unsuccessful" brought shame on themselves by losing honour. If people brought shame or honour on themselves, they also brought it on their various social groups (family, clan, tribe, town, etc.). In Jewish life, the system of "clean and unclean" interlocked with this system of shame and honour. Clean things brought honour, unclean brought shame.
In the Old Testament many things made people unclean. Certain food had to be avoided. Having a disease or coming near people with one, or issues of blood made one unclean. Contact with dead bodies made one unclean. This is one way to teach fear. To maintain its honour a family had to isolate itself from unclean people (now the focus of fear), or they too would become unclean and be isolated from their community. Poor Legion, the demon possessed man, was isolated from the community, Jairus' daughter was isolated in her sickroom, and, had her death been final, she would, of course, have been isolated in a tomb. The woman with the hemorrhage had literally been unclean for a dozen years, and would have been unable to take any part in community affairs – and, of course, as a woman in this ancient culture, her role was limited anyway. In addition to the physical suffering and embarrassment she felt, she would have been isolated from any participation in society, or contact with any but other unclean people. The way Mark buries this story within another one, and doesn't even give this woman a name, shows how that woman was buried, marginalized, depersonalized and invisible within her culture – maybe even invisible to herself after twelve years. She, Jairus' daughter, and Legion were all isolated, unclean and without hope. They were the objects of fear. Jesus did not only offer physical healing, but re-integration into community which meant life and hope.
Let me get back to that woman with the hemorrhage. This poor so-called unclean woman, embarrassed and marginalized, had heard of this rabbi named Jeshua. In Mark's day, it was commonly thought that even the clothes of a powerful healer had power. She thought if she could just get close enough to touch his clothes, she'd be restored. She did. Jesus turned and said the strangest thing, "Who touched me?" In the thronging crowd, even his disciples knew what a wild question that was? I wonder how many folk wondered whether Jesus wanted to know so he could determine what kind of person it was that touched him, and whether he was now unclean from contact, or could be justified in having this feared person further isolated. From the description of this woman's response, can you hear her fear and embarrassment? She hadn't thought it was wrong, but apparently it was, again. She was used to being ignored and wrong. That Jesus couldn't find out who touched him wasn't surprising. No one knew that woman, though they might have seen her many times. She had been turned into an object of fear, so who would want to touch her? It turns out that Jesus wanted to know who touched him, not to know whether she was clean or unclean, or whether she had a right to approach him. Jesus wanted to know her. He said, "Daughter, your faith has made you well; go, in peace," and, to get the flavour of the Greek, "Your healing from disease will continue." It's no temporary fix. Jesus saw the woman no one else could see.
Elsewhere, Jesus makes it clear that God's vision sees all those who are at the margin. In fact, it seems they fill God's vision rather more than those who claim privilege and claim not to see the suffering, unclean, terrorized ones. Jesus brought all three of the invisible folk in this chapter to visibility. He also brought them out of hiding and isolation, into community, and into hope.
I would suggest to you this morning that the community of Jesus has the task of integrating those who have experienced rejection and grief into (or back into) a community of faith to learn hope's song. The community of Jesus is not concerned about whether the people to whom it reaches out are clean or unclean, or will wreck our reputation if we touch them. We have sometimes been taught that unless people are perfect first, we shouldn't be around them. That's not what I see in Jesus. What I see is a community that isn't afraid to reach out to those with questions, those who have been rejected and told they're unclean, those who are suffering. I see a community that can be the embodiment of feathery, fragile, ethereal hope. We may not be perfect at this, because we are ourselves just learning hope's song, and are far from wholeness ourselves. I suggest that, like that hope in Emily Dickenson's poem, we in the community of faith need to sing the tune without the words – in short we need to act in ways that reject absolutely the efforts that many make to perpetrate fear, first as a general idea, then as aimed at specific people to marginalize. The most common command in the Bible is "fear not, stop being afraid." Further the community of Jesus embraces these very feared and hated ones to enable them (and us) to remember something that may have lain dormant in the back of their minds, and ours:
The steadfast love of the LORD is never over, God's mercies never run out; they are new every morning.
One thing we do together, month by month, is celebrate the Lord's Supper round this table, sharing in the one bread and one cup that symbolizes the one body of Jesus that was given on our behalf, but also the one body of Christ that is the church, the community of Jesus in the world. As we invite you to join around that table, remember God's steadfast, inexhaustible love and loyalty. And remember that we are called to embody that same loyalty, and so, to help one another live into real strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow.
In the name of God: Creator, Redeemer, Sustainer. AMEN.

Ghana's child population is in millions but their hearts are in the hands of only one pediatric cardiologist, Dr. Nana-Akyaa Yao.
Every heart defect of any child living anywhere in Ghana requiring special attention must find this doctor, a situation that exposes one of the silent human resource crisis in the health sector.
One in every 100,000 births in Ghana has a heart disease and an average of 5000 children are born with hole-in-heart conditions in Ghana every year, according to the National Cardiothoracic Centre.
Yet, the call for government to broach the subject and find solutions has been difficult.
Basic measures such as screening of babies so that complications if any can be detected early is unavailable.
In a conversation with Dr. Yao, she said her passion has steered her on for over twenty years but admits that more hands are needed on deck.
She worries that most children who are luckily detected early hardly make it as a result of lack of resources to cater for them. Their only hope is to seek health care abroad but majority of parents cannot afford it.
But the silent crisis has caught the attention of the Rotary club of Accra Ring Road Central.
The club is sponsoring two doctors to harness skills in Pediatric Cardiology to help salvage the situation.
Dr. Charles-Francis Kokor and Dr. Lynette Abag-Dem beat 40 others in a very competitive process for the opportunity to study on scholarship in the prestigious Papa Giovanni XXIII International Heart School (HIS) in Bergamo, Italy.
The scholarship worth, 100,000 dollars is being funded by the Rotary Foundation and supported by two rotary clubs from Accra Ring Road Central and Sarnicoe Valle Cavallina In Italy.
They are required to return after their studies to use their skills save more lives.
That does not end it as more doctors are expected to benefit from more scholarships if they pass the tests.
President of the Rotary Club of Accra Ring Road central, Dr. Dennis Addo who spearheaded the project said he is glad that hope will come to children in Ghana while urging government to help.

By Josef Omorotionmwan
IT was in the spring of 1974. My letter of admission to Mercy College, DobbsFerry, New York, to study Criminal Justice arrived our Bronx residence, in the presence of an American friend, Meredith. This letter produced an open ambivalence: while I was obviously elated, my friend was totally pensive. Her feeling emanated from the fact that the Jehovah's Witnesses, to which she belonged, had predicted that Armageddon – the apocalypse that would consume the world – was coming in the winter of that year. She rued the prospect of anyone wasting money and time, entering into a venture at the edge of a precipice.
At that time, I was a neo-convert to Christianity. You can trust a Jehovah's Witness. She produced superior argument, siting relevant Bible verses, to support the calculation that Armageddon was really coming that year. She did everything to persuade me from going to college.
I wished she knew that education was the only thing that brought me into their harsh weather. I bowed to her superior argument but quickly informed her that to God, nothing good is impossible. I then placed a demand on her – to ask the church to intercede on my behalf that God should tarry a little. I also prayed fervently. All those who doubt the efficacy of prayers should see how God, for my sake, has kept the world out of destruction. Forty years after, Armageddon has not still come!
All elections in Nigeria, including even those local government fixtures, have become major wars. In our courts today, if you took away the caseloads coming from inconclusive elections in our professional associations, our judiciary could be perpetually on recess.
We once referred to our general elections as undeclared wars but we now know that they are declared hostilities. The only difference with other wars is that these ones start raging many years before the declared dates and the casualties are not necessarily concentrated in the battlefields. For instance, the 2015 hostilities started years ago, ever since the trickery of President Goodluck Jonathan's suitability to contest took centre-stage.
It is not a prediction that matters but our attitude to the prediction. A few years back, the Central Intelligence Agency, CIA, pronounced an Armageddon of sorts on Nigeria by 2015. This is where the country should have taken a cue from some of us. Rather than remain calm and find out the basis of their prediction with a view to averting the impending doom, Nigerians preferred to procure all available razor blades to cut off the lips and tongues of the predictors.
The moral equivalence of our national approach in my 1974 experience would have been for me to slap Sister Meredith. If I did that, I would have ended up in the hands of those rookies at the New York Police Department who, after dealing with me, would have handed me over to the US Department of Immigration for immediate deportation to Nigeria. Most importantly, this world would probably have ended ever since.
Double standards are major causes of failure in war. As we speak, Mallam El-Rufai, a former Minister in the Obasanjo years, might still be in the hands of the State Security Service, SSS, for purportedly insinuating that there would be mayhem if the 2015 elections were not free and fair. But this is the same thing that Muhammadu Buhari, a former Head of State, who apparently commands greater audience than El-Rufai, has always said before every major election, without being arrested.
Come to think of it, if your motives are not clandestine, why arrest a man for asking you to conduct free and fair elections? We have said, perhaps with monotonous regularity, that bad elections are the very albatross of this country and things cannot continue this way. Those who abhor bloodshed should better begin to work hard on producing free, fair and credible elections because if you lock up all the El-Rufais of this world and throw the key into the Atlantic, you will achieve nothing if your elections are still bad.
Who says the war has not started in Rivers State since the past one and a half years with Police Commissioner Joseph Mbu's reign of impunity? And we seem to be enjoying the situation where somebody who is supposed to be on professional calling has become a bully, thus dragging the names of his profession and his nation into the mud.
We are laughing in a situation where a Police Commissioner who should take instructions from the State Governor has become the alternate Governor, in utter defiance of our so-called Constitution. The situation in Rivers State is by far already worse than what they had in Mushin and the Wild-Wild West of 1965-66. Those enjoying the imbroglio in Rivers State today should be reminded of the law of nature, which translated in its elemental form, means that the cane reserved for "Iyale" (the first wife) will one day be used on "Iyawo" (the new wife).
The new phase of the 2015 war is this amorphous National Conference that hopes to achieve in three months what its forerunners couldn't achieve in one year; a Conference in which President Jonathan is nominating about one-third of the members. Can't we see this benevolent democrat nominating those delegates from the ranks of the APC? Ha, ha!
At first, the President promised that there would not be "No-go" areas but last week, he reversed himself when he said that the unity of the country is not negotiable. That's the first "No-go" area. Will that be all? No matter the method of selection, let the President wait till they begin to consider thorny areas like the Sharia and resource control. This is yet another N7 billion flushed down the drains. That's a major war expense!
Jaw-jaw is better than war-war. Although the drum-beats are not encouraging, we believe that a viable Nigeria is still possible. Let us march into 2015 with an iron determination to win based on superior programmes, not the do-or-die approach.

If you've been a reader for over a year then you might remember that last November I launched my first online course — Your Ideal Year. Not to toot my own horn, but the course got very good reviews by the people who took it. I've even had people come up to me months later and in person tell me how much the course helped them.
People gave me feedback such as:
"Compared to other workshops and conferences, Meg's course definitely has the most value and immediate impact towards creating lasting changes in my life and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to improve their career and daily routines!"
"This course is spurring me into action. The tasks we're given throughout the course forced me to take a long hard look at my goals, and then break them down into tiny steps that will help me achieve my long term goals."
"This course holds up an honest mirror to the life you live and provides a roadmap to successfully reach your goals with no excuses. I've never had such a hands-on resource to awaken my senses and ignite me for the new year."
"Meg's course is an amazing resource to help define goals, organize thoughts and provide focus for the year ahead. After completing the introduction alone, I felt inspired and motivated, both in both my personal and professional life. As a small business owner, big dreams and ideas come with the territory but Meg's course helped me prioritize my thoughts in an intentional and realistic way."
"I was surprised at how I don't really have a good clear sense of my goals. After doing this course I realized that I need to focus on making some measurable, tangible goals in order to make any real progress."
Read why I created Your Ideal Year here. How the concept of it went from the Get Shit Done book to Your Ideal Year, and my 9 Tips to Have Your Best Year.
When I came up with the concept, I knew it would be something that was evergreen, meaning it applies to our lives constantly. Especially during the new year. But it's not the type of course that is only good when I launch it. It doesn't change with the times like maybe teaching an Instagram or social media course would. As in, half of the tips I gave out 5 years ago for social media don't really apply anymore. But everything in my course still applies this year, and I think always will.
As long as you want to change your life, get motivated, get a clearer picture of what you want it life, and a little help organizing yourself on how to get there — this course will be relevant to you.
I feel like every year there's some new goal-setting book or course or whatever — and trust me, I've read or done most of them. Here's the thing, you will find the one that works best for you, because you'll keep searching for them and taking different ones until you find one that is actually satisfying and that you want to do over and over each year. I did that, none of them helped me enough, so I made my own.
If you've taken other courses that you felt were forgettable and here you are thinking you could still use some direction, you won't have to look any further than Your Ideal Year. You only buy it once and then you can take the tools and the method I give you, reprint the worksheets out whenever you want (you can download them and save them on your computer — forever), and go through the course (or whatever parts of it you want) all over again. You don't have to buy the course again, anything I add to it you will have access to as long as the course is online.
The first time you do the entire course it it will take longer (most people said 10-20 hours), but then the next year, you read over what you wrote the previous year and you'll probably just be tweaking, adding a few and/or taking out a few things. But the method and the tools are designed for you to learn it once, and do it again whenever you want.
This year I've added two new printable tools to the course (those who have already bought the course can log in and get these new PDFs and download the 2018 dated print outs).
The two new print outs are my Get Shit Done To-Do List — so instead of buying it from my shop you can just download and print this one over and over. And another to-do list that is similar in nature to the Get Shit Done list and there are two versions of it. Basically they are additional tools for you once you've taken the course.
Within the course there is a workbook and print-outs for each section. They can be reprinted each year or each time you want to retake the course or reevaluate that part of the course.
I realize that everyone likes to organize things differently so I give you lots of options so you can find the one that works best for you!
Two things to note — ask your accountant for sure, but you can probably write the cost of the course off on your taxes if you have your own business or are starting one and are using the course to help you organize your thoughts. Also, if you work in the corporate world, this course can be tailored for a group corporate setting. Please contact me to discuss if you think that might be something your company might want to do.
If you want to know more about Your Ideal Year, you can go to the site here. I'm not going to rewrite everything about why I think it's the best way to evaluate your life, get your shit together, figure out what the heck you really want, and give you some direction and a path to get there. Just read these posts linked below, and go to the Your ideal Year site and all the info, including a list of every single lesson in the course, is there.
Get Shit Done Book to Your Ideal Year
If you still have questions, please feel free to email me!
Also, on my Instagram Stories I'll be giving a few additional sneak peeks of the worksheets in the course, so follow me there!

From John Stott during this Easter Season:
The resurrection of Jesus Christ also assures of God's power. For we need God's power in the present as well as his forgiveness of the past. Is God really able to change human nature, to make cruel people kind and sour people sweet? Is he able to take people who are dead to spiritual reality and make them alive in Christ? Yes, he really is! He is able to give life to the spiritually dead and transform us into the likeness of Christ.

Why is following up so hard?
I am forever being surprised by some peoples lack of ability to follow up or respond! I make it part of my pledge to people that they will hear from me in 24 hours, usually with what I had promised them, but even if I could not sort out in 24 hours, I would let them know this. It is good manners above all else, but in this time poor world in which we exist, people need to plan and if what you are doing for them effects their plans then you really do need to deliver.

LinkedIn Groups
Once upon a time Groups in LinkedIn were a great tool and used by many of us for various reasons, then they seem to lose their priority on the platform and activity dropped off quite dramatically.

NSA Email, Search and File Transfer Snooping Exposed
According to recent news reports, the National Security Agency has spent the last several years monitoring emails, search activity and file transfers of Americans – through the cooperation of tech giants like Microsoft, Apple and Google.–PC Pitstop.
Verizon may very well just be the tip of the iceberg. Just hours after U.K. news organization The Guardian revealed that the FBI was collecting millions of private citizens' phone data, numerous members of the United States government have revealed that data collection efforts are far broader, and have been going on for far longer, than was immediately reported.
On Wednesday, The Guardian reprinted a classified Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court document, dated April 25, 2013, that demands Verizon turn over customers' phone records "on an ongoing daily basis" through July 19, 2013. The court document also demands absolute secrecy pertaining to the order.
And now, it gets worse: It was also revealed he government has backdoors into virtually every major Internet company's data servers, where it can obtain information it views as vital to national security without need of a warrant.
Government eyes are literally everywhere online.
According to a confidential document leaked to The Guardian, the National Security Agency (NSA) has created a program named PRISM that has given it unfettered access to the databases of virtually every major company that stores your data.
In a document leaked to The Guardian, specific companies involved in offering the government access to your data are named. Feds have had access to Microsoft's data since September 2007, Yahoo since March 2008, Google since January 2009, Facebook since June 2009, YouTube since September 2010, Skype since February 2011, AOL since March 2011, and Apple since just last October. Google, Microsoft, Facebook, and Google have all denied claims that the government has direct access to their data servers.
Obviously, because of the sheer amount of data being collected and sifted through, it's unlikely a human being in Washington, D.C. will ever lay eyes on any of your old deleted Xanga blog, pictures of your 7th grade trip to Philadelphia, or emails about a secret love affair. Unless, of course, someone decides that those records pertain to national security, in which case the government can legally seek information first and ask permission later.

Folks, if not for these folks, I shudder to think where I might be right now – instead of sitting here at HQ basking in the warm feelings I've gathered.
Oh man, maybe I can align some ducks, maybe maybe…!
We can call it … D Day!

AROUND THE NEK- Vermont is known for maple syrup, Ben and Jerry's, and being the state where Bernie Sanders is from. Athletes? Maybe not so much. But one Vermont athlete recently returned from Pyeongchang, with a serious piece of hardware around her neck.
"That's the million dollar question everyone's been asking. I think it was above and beyond what I ever dreamt of it being," said Amanda Pelkey, a member of the US Women's Hockey Team.
"I think the excitement and the overwhelming feeling of finally getting to the Olympics and the having the end goal of winning an Olympic medal, it's cliche to say, but it was everything you've ever dreamed of."
Pelkey, a former stand out at the University of Vermont, played in all five Olympic contests, recording two assists. And while she may not have scored any goals, her impact was felt both in South Korea, and in the United States.
"it was just gratifying for us as a family to see her joy and tears of happiness when she has the gold medal around her neck," said Lyndon Institute Girls Hockey Coach Michael Matteis.
"I can't even describe it, it was amazing," added his daughter Olivia, who plays for LI. "Just knowing that someone from around here was a part of that team and experienced that with other people with her skill, it was just amazing."
Growing up, Pelkey's role models were hockey players like Cammi Granato, Karyn Bye, Angela Ruggiero, and Julie Choo; women that inspired her to push through adversity when she was growing up.
"I was leaving Friday, I was gone, I'd come back home for classes on Tuesday. And that was when I was really little. 2nd and 3rd grade is kind of when it started," added Pelkey. "But then again, you're that young and you don't know 'Is it really possible?' So when I was 15 is when it all kind of hit that this was going to be a possibility and from there, every single year is a work in process. So it was kind of like a staircase up to the highest level and I think 4 or 5 years ago, I made my first women's national team roster. Ever since then, it's been a battle. It definitely hasn't been easy but it's everything I ever dreamed of it being."
Coming from a small town in Vermont, being a gold medal athlete is something Amanda Pelkey only dreamed of. But now seeing that dream come to fruition, it's her turn to be a role model for the next generation of athletes in the area.
"That's what people say. I try to be. I think that's what it's all about," noted Pelkey. "Winning a gold medal, the last person it's for is for me. That's a powerful message that our team, our coaching staff really put out there. It just say a lot about the type of group that we have."
"Amanda, she's grown up locally from Barre, right in Vermont, and she's worked her way through. Just seeing her win the Olympics for women's hockey is just outstanding," added Olivia Matteis.
"You talk to pretty much any female youth hockey player in the state, and they know the name Amanda Pelkey, and it's always in a positive tone," added Coach Matteis. "Her attitude towards helping others and her work ethic, and her love of the game has really helped the women's sport side of it. Anytime you see or hear Amanda Pelkey's name come up, it's always a happy thought or a cheerful moment to think that 'hey we've got one of our own from the state of Vermont being able to play at that higher level."
As a role model, Pelkey has a particular message she hopes to spread.
"The biggest thing is to be fearless and setting whatever you want; cliche goal setting, but being fearless and having a vision and just running with it," said Pelkey. "Doing everything possible, whether that means, there's going to be many sacrifices that you're going to have to make. But the feeling of actually achieving that overrides all those sacrifices that you had to do when you were really little. I think that's my message and just have fun with it."
And she looks like she's having fun with that gold medal.

Adevism (from the Sanskrit term deva, on the analogy of atheism) is a term introduced by Friedrich Max Müller to imply the denial of gods, in particular, the legendary gods of Vedic Hinduism. Müller used it in the Gifford Lectures in connection with the Vedanta philosophy, for the correlative of ignorance or nescience.[1] In modern contexts it is rarely found, though it is sometimes used to represent a disbelief in any gods, contrasted with a specific disbelief in the Judaeo-Christian deity (God). Adevism is not to be confused with atheism, which is the denial of a god or gods.[2] Adevism is used extremely infrequently in writing, probably because of the much used term atheism.

A turban designed to keep your hair away from your face whilst you apply your make up, or used to dry your hair instead of putting it in a towel has found another use quite by accident. Forums for frizzy hair have been endorsing the Allura Microfibre Hair Wrap, found at the bargain basement store Poundland, for – yes – you've guessed it – a £1, saying that it is leaving their hair super glossy and shiny. The Allura wrap is making no such claims, it is merely a convenience wrap and made from microfibre toweling. It is only mean to be used as a method of keeping your hair away from your face but satisfied customers have been raving about the condition of their hair, once they have used it. One poster commented, 'It has made so much difference to the condition of my hair,' whilst another asserts, 'Leaving my hair to dry in it for a while just makes my hair so much softer.' More insists that it leaves their hair 'bouncy and shiny'. The reason it could be helping to control frizz and improving the condition of the hair is that is noticeably cuts down on the drying time, which saves the hair from being blasted from hot air and becoming overheated.
The product has proved to be such a hit with consumers that a quarter of a million are sold each year and Poundland's trading director David Coxon says, "It has always been a very popular item with our customers. I don't think they can believe it's just £1." In fact, now that the message boards and forums are buzzing with this news, many stores have sold out. The turban is easy to use; you simply take the white hood which has a button on one side and a corresponding loop on the tail, then tip your hair forward into the hood, twist the material up and over your head and secure the loop over the button. Posters on forums say that it is actually much easier to wear than a towel as it is lighter and does not weigh your head down or unravel as some towels do. After practising with a Poundland Allura turban for a few days, I estimate the optimum time to leave your hair in the turban to be around half an hour if you have fairly thin hair like mine which is shoulder length.
As for how the turban works, it appears that as the microfibres are much smaller than normal towelling fibres, there is more of a surface area and this enables them to soak up a larger amount of water from your hair, therefore drying your hair much more quickly and effectively. And microfibres even have a celebrity endorsement – celebrity hairdresser Richard Ward, who is the hairdresser to the Duchess of Cambridge says that a microfibre towel has advantages. "It's more absorbent," he says. "And, as you're not rubbing the hair as you would with a normal towel, it's not getting damaged so it feels softer. However, I think it's better just to blot-dry your hair gently and then blow-dry it from wet to achieve a long-lasting style."
For a pound you can't really go wrong can you?

That's fortuitous for him, since he's also an avid Wyoming license plate collector, and Park County licenses begin with the county's assigned number, 11.
His favorite license plate number? Wyoming 11-11, of course.
"I get a little …
John Stalick's favorite number is 11.
"I just like the way it looks," Stalick, of Cody, said last week.
That's fortuitous for him, since he's also an avid Wyoming license plate collector, and Park County licenses begin with the county's assigned number, 11.
His favorite license plate number? Wyoming 11-11, of course.
"I get a little obsessive-compulsive with the Park County stuff," he said.
Stalick, who moved to Cody from Douglas earlier this year, is a fourth-generation Wyomingite.
Wyoming is in the family's blood. So, when his grandfather and father began collecting old cars, it seemed appropriate to collect Wyoming license plates manufactured in the same years to put on the old cars.
Stalick's work in Wyoming's oil and gas fields took him to several different areas of the state, so collecting a bunch of old cars wasn't practical. But license plates — that's another matter entirely.
"My first one was a 1956 [county 4] No. 9 plate, for my 1956 Oldsmobile," he said. Then I collected all the counties for 1956, then I decided to do other years. I started [numerical] runs of all 23 counties, and it got out of control at that point."
His wife, Natalie — then his fiancée — encouraged his growing hobby. Together, they traveled to counties around the state, looking for more old license plates.
"We visited with people and came home with boxes full of them," John said.
Without thinking twice, he can recite the numbers assigned to each Wyoming county, and his young sons, John Paul Stalick III (Tres, 5) and Thayne (3) are learning them too — and they have their own collections of small-sized ATV license plates. Daughter Afton, 1 1/2, loves "helping" her dad with his collection, too.
Stalick said he values the people he meets and the friends he makes as much as he does the license plates.
Stalick said he always pays a fair price for license plates.
"This hobby is all about the people," Stalick said. "One time, we made a lady cry" when they bought some historic license plates from her. She told them, "I didn't know they were worth that much."
"I told her I can restore them and make my money back," Stalick said.
He restores the license plates by cleaning and polishing them. He soaks most of them in Barkeeper's Friend to clean them. But that solution won't work for all license plates; it will dissolve the paint on plates manufactured in a few specific years. Linseed oil is the best way to bring out the color for those years' plates.
Stalick never repaints license plates, though a few of the older plates in his collection were repainted by their previous owner.
Once restored, he stores the plates in sturdy plastic bins in numerical order for every county.
It is particularly difficult to find a 1944 license plate in good condition, Stalick said. That year, Wyoming's plates were made of cardboard to conserve the metal. The cardboard got wet and degraded in the weather, and state license plates were made of metal again in 1945.
Today, Stalick owns about 3,000 Wyoming license plates — down from the 10,000 he had at one point.
"I traded some and sold some big runs to friends in different counties," he said.
Stalick has a computer record of every license plate he owns, how much he paid for it, what its current estimated value is, and if sold, how much he sold it for.
But selling license plates isn't his primary objective. It's getting long runs of numbers for each county, and collecting plates for as many years and counties as possible.
He particularly loves it when he can find runs of a low number that belonged to the same family, sometimes spanning three generations.
For instance, he has a run of Park County license plate No. 14 dating back to the 1950s, and a single-number run from Albany County he describes as "one of the nicest single-number runs in existence."
"Wyoming is way different than other states," he said. In most states, the license plate number goes with the car. "But in Wyoming, the number goes with the person. That's unique in Wyoming."
Stalick owns license plates dating back to 1922, before license plates were assigned by county, and before Wyoming's now-famous and trademarked bucking horse and rider was put on the plates. Back then, the state's license plates varied in color, such as cream and green (1922); navy blue and white (1923); red and white (1924); green and white (1925); yellow and black (1926); and maroon and red (1927).
This year, as people replace their old license plates with new ones, Stalick has asked them to send their old plates to him rather than throwing them away.
He's working on runs of numbers for Park County, starting with single digits, then 10s, 100s, 1,000s and 10,000s — using a strategy similar to the card game "Racko." He has 10 of each numerical column from 71 through 40,000 (the highest numbers manufactured) for car license plates displayed on his garage wall, and a similar display for truck plates, leaving blank spaces for those he still needs.
Stalick said people's initial reaction when they learn about his collection and his passion for license plates is, "That's a weird hobby."
"Then, a couple of months later, they start looking at plates," and begin collecting license plates themselves, he said. "Then they call me and say, 'Man, I'm mad at you,'" because they realize it will be hard get a collection equal to Stalick's.

Born to former slaves on July 15, 1867, shortly after the end of the Civil War, Maggie L. Walker would become one of the most influential black females at the turn of the century. From her roots in poverty in the city of Richmond, Walker became the first woman in the United States, black or white, to charter a bank when she opened St. Luke Penny Saving Bank in her hometown: the City of Richmond.
Walker founded the Richmond branch of St. Luke within the first few years of the twentieth century. Shortly thereafter, the bank merged with two other all African-American banks to form The Consolidated Bank and Trust Company, with Walker at the helm. In an article published in 1909, The Washington Post recognized Walker's accomplishments as an unlikely story when they published an article entitled She is a bank president.' When Walker was born in 1867, the plausibility of a black woman founding a bank only forty years after the close of the Civil War seemed improbable at best.
Throughout her life, Walker became known for her commitment to philanthropy, especially for work in her local community: Jackson Ward. Today, Maggie L. Walker's home in Jackson Ward stands as a museum to honor the work of one of the first successful black female businesswomen in the Post-Civil War era. Additionally, the Maggie L. Walker Governor's School for Government and International Studies, also located in Richmond, was named after the woman who defied the odds to become a leader in the business world.

Rheumatoid Arthritis – Symptoms You Should Never Ignore
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that causes inflammation of the small joints in the hands and feet. It affects the synovial tissues surrounding the joints, and if unmanaged, often causes painful swelling and inflammation that can result in bone erosion and joint deformity. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that more than 50 million adults in the U.S. suffer from some form of arthritic disease and that nearly 1.5 million adults have RA.
RA differs from other forms of arthritis in that inflammation is not caused by regular wear and tear of joints; rather, it is the result of a malfunction in the immune system. It is estimated that women have three times greater chance of contracting RA than men. The condition is common among women in the 30-60 age group and usually occurs somewhat later in life in men.
The typical symptoms of RA are joint pain and stiffness. The most common joints affected are the fingers, wrists, arms and legs. Swelling will occur due to fluid build-up in the joint cavity and this will give the joint a boggy or spongy feel. In addition to pain and swelling in the joints, there are some other signs which patients should not ignore
- Fatigue – Unexplained fatigue can be indicative of RA. In most cases, tiredness is accompanied by a feeling of weakness (which can be joint specific). This condition generally causes inflammation, which generates heat and directs blood flow to other affected parts of the body. As this consumes a lot of energy, it can leave the person feeling tired and weak.
- Numbness and tingling sensation – The disease causes the connective tissues in the hand or foot to become inflamed and push against a nerve causing numbness and tingling sensation. This may result in patients experiencing weakness, clumsiness, or even nerve damage. Swelling can happen in tissues throughout the body, but it commonly occurs around the wrist area.
- Inability to move hand or foot – This severe complication occurs when the inflamed vessels limit the amount of blood that reaches nerves in your hand or foot. Affected hands may become reddened and puffy.
- Weight loss – This disease can cause flu-like symptoms, which suppresses appetite and results in weight loss.
- Red, inflamed eyes – In some cases, people with RA will develop inflammation in the eyes called scleritis. The condition is characterized by pain, dryness, blurred vision and sensitivity to light.
- Fever – Low-grade fever is another symptom of the condition. This may be accompanied by unexplained cough or reddening of an area of the skin.
- Bone fracture – Because of the inflammatory nature of RA, it can lead to osteoporosis, resulting in broken bones and bone loss.
Following a systematic lifestyle integrated with healthy diet and regular exercise regime helps in effective management of rheumatoid arthritis symptoms. Regular exercise can help prevent joint swelling. Rehabilitation centers help patients manage RA with treatment modalities including physical therapy, TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation), massage, and pain management programs.

Made In America Fest 2015: 16 Acts Who Gave Us Life
Budweiser's Made In America Festival was one big blur. Between the #BeyHive and #FutureHive swarming Philadelphia's Benjamin Franklin Parkway and the dust storms clogging up concertgoers' nostrils, the Jay Z-curated lineup catered to ear cravings of all flavors. Besides the obvious turn-ups that were Bey and Fewtch's sets, there were acts who served the bass like DJ gawds Bassnectar; hip-hop Stan favorites, J. Cole and Big Sean; and rock stars, Lolawolf and Mayaeni.
Cheers to the performers who kept the weekend lit. Here were the high notes at MIA Fest below.
DAY 1 - Saturday, Sept. 5
1. Mayaeni is a black girl who rocks. Word to Beverly Bond. The D-town native made her presence known on the Skate Stage with her head-thrashing sound and a special rendition of A$AP Rocky's "L$D." The Roc Nation signee was also accompanied by her sleek guitar and electrifying band.
2. Vic Mensa is a modern-day Roc star. The Chicago spitter who received Jay Z's blessing (Vic signed to the Roc Nation roster in April) probably made Hov proud by crowdsurfing his way through his biggest hits in 45 minutes. From covering Chance The Rapper's "Coca Butter Kisses" and Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit," Vic also lit up the Rocky stage with "Down On My Luck," "Holy, Holy" and "U Mad."
3. Nick Jonas isn't the teenybopper thirst trap that the JoBros were before. He's actually grown, and can be sexy if ex-boy bandees are your thing. Between swigs of D'Usse (salute Jay) and H2O, Nick serenaded to the predominantly female crowd with his self-titled sophomore effort. Sprinkling in covers of The Weeknd's "Can't Feel My Face," Bell Biv DeVoe's "Poison" and Outkast's "Roses" (he described the Andre 3000 and Big Boi cut as "a tasteful way of saying 'F*ck you' to someone you don't really like"), the leather jacket-clad Jonas sang his heart out for opener "Chains," the Sage Gemini-assisted "Good Thing" and "Jealous."
4. Earl Sweatshirt sweated through his early afternoon set at the Liberty Stage. While the crowd was lukewarm despite the blazing 90-degree weather, Earl urged the crowd to scream during his finale "DNA": "B*tch n*gga, we the train/ If you see 'em wave, ain't no b*tch in my DNA." Good times.
5. Bassnectar closed out Day 1 with a special performance of "Bigger Than Hip Hop" with Dead Prez, which made for a very welcome rap and EDM concoction.
6. Beyoncé restructured past sets into a girl power party. Her salute to Ronda Rousey's #DNB speech and ratchet interpolations of Lil Ronny's "Circle," and Future's "F*ck Up Some Commas" and "Where Ya At," were infinite flame emojis.
