"Around eight years ago I did not read anything, as I thought reading was not cool and I pretty much did not enjoy most of the books I picked up to read".
So what are you currently reading?
"Well I have just started on "Behold the Dreamer," so far so good."
"Keep picking up books and if you find you don't get into it, it's probably not for you right there and then. Keep going, try different authors and topics as there is a good book for everyone, you will know when it is the book for you as you will not be able to put it down."

Dreams Come True
Cinderella type films were very common in Hong Kong during the 1950s and 60s when there was a large divide between the rich and poor in that city. These films played to peoples fantasies that with just a little bit of luck you could move out of poverty into the comfort of a life with large houses, sleek cars, fine clothes and servants. In general, these were romances in which people from opposite classes meet, fall in love and run into societal or family opposition. This 1960 Cathay film plays out very lightly more a screwball comedy akin to a 1930s depression era Jean Arthur film than a serious melodrama or social critique. The plot is paper thin and the characters not much deeper, but it has its charms which are primarily derived from the wide-eyed mugging of Kitty Ting Hao.
There cant be much doubt as to why she picked up the moniker of Kitty she definitely has some feline features around the face and eyes and often takes on the satisfied countenance of a cat that ate the cream. Her sharply angled eyebrows act as exclamation points for the myriad of fluid expressions that dot her face throughout this film. She really is as cute as a kitten playing with a string in this one. She plays Fang Fang, a flower girl who walks out into the countryside early every day to buy fresh flowers and then attempts to sell them at strategic points within the city. In a little ditty she sings to herself about which flowers are easy to sell to what parties White orchids are easy to sell. Dating people like to buy them. Christmas flowers are easy to sell. Every Christian needs them. Ya-ho-yi-dar-yo. Like every Cinderella story there have to be villains and here we have a few of them a stepmother who hits her if enough flowers arent sold and a pair of minor league triads who demand protection money from her. These must be hard times because these two chase after her for the entire movie to collect their monthly $5 protection fee!
One day while selling flowers at the pier she is forced to hide from the cops and jumps into a parked car and then cant figure how to get out - this is where the Cinderella bit begins. A wealthy family has gone to meet the daughter of a family friend who lives in San Francisco and is coming to Hong Kong for the first time. All they have is an old photo of her and when they see Fang Fang in their car they assume she is Miss Feng due to a strong resemblance. They greet her happily and take her to their home as a guest and Kitty just goes along for the ride. Only the older son Xihong (played by Kelly Lai Chen) knows who she really is but he is so mesmerized by her hypnotic eyebrows that he completely falls under her spell and just lets the scenario play out. Living in the lap of luxury is more than o.k. by Kitty and she literally does somersaults and rolls on the plush carpeting. Trouble is that she knows nothing about this girl that she is suppose to be not even that San Francisco is a city and her perceived odd behavior is first put down as American and then that she must be having a nervous breakdown and should be institutionalized!
This gets her to do a quick exit out the window but she ends up literally in the dog house and has to pretend to be sleepwalking to get back inside. Eventually, the real Miss Feng arrives in Hong Kong and lo and behold is a nearsighted bucktoothed version of Fang Fang (played again by Kitty) and Fang Fangs parents grab her and take her to their hovel thinking this is their daughter. In the meantime love has bloomed between Fang Fang and the Xihong but of course she is a poor flower seller and he the heir to wealth but this isnt real life thankfully and so we can sit back in the surety that love will win the hearts and minds of all. Also in the film are the jovial Liu Enjia as Fang Fangs father and Wu Jiaxiang as the westernized doctor intent on committing Fang Fang.
My rating for this film: 6.0

Fall means apples, and that's the perfect time to try Oliver Winery's Beanblossom Hard Cider in original or peach. On weekends, tour the production facility and take one of their special fall vineyard tours by appointment. You're always welcome to picnic by the pond. Their biggest event of the year happens this fall with the Harvest Wine Festival on Sept. 17. It features wine tasting, live music, food trucks and winery tours. Hoosiers can thank Oliver Winery's founder, IU law professor William Oliver, for a lot of things. First, he enjoyed making wine in his basement and wanted to do more with his enthusiasm. He was instrumental in passing legislation that allowed for the creation of small wineries in Indiana in 1971! Now the next generation of the Oliver family continues the tradition.

As part of Education Week, our school held an open afternoon where parents and families were invited into our classrooms to help complete our challenge.
Our challenge was to build a structure using only icy-pole sticks, tape & string that could hold a tennis ball for more than 10 seconds. We talked about the strongest shape in structures being a triangle – some people chose to use this advice and some chose to ignore it. Some structures were heavily reinforced with masking tape!
Most of the structures could handle a tennis ball. So Miss Fraser decided to test our structures with heavier objects. First she tried a tissue box and then a large notepad. Again, most structures survived! Miss Fraser decided to then see if they could withstand having a tennis ball dropped on them…
It was fantastic to see students testing their own structures with tennis balls and then with heavier objects too – such as drink bottles and even the contents of a locker!
We enjoyed having so many family members in our classroom to assist with our learning. We will be holding a Family Blogging Afternoon next week too!

Soul Wake-Up Coach & Speaker
Dedicated to inspiring the best in others!
Lucy V. Cantú is a "Mom turned Speaker & Coach." Years ago, she put her career on hold to stay home and raise two daughters. While volunteering at their school, she seized a part-time opportunity to teach English to immigrant parents. In time, she observed a "hunger" in her adult students—a desire to learn all they could to help their children do well in school and succeed. That desire inspired Lucy. She sensed a "calling" to somehow make a difference.
She took the lead, integrating her past professional experience as a Bilingual Health Educator for the City of Dallas and Community Liaison for Dallas Schools, and established a bilingual training company. The goal: to help parents and educators of "at-risk" families grow their capacities to help children rise above limitations and succeed. Ever since, Lucy has been on a mission to awaken, inspire, and teach others to live true to their potential and lead lives filled with love, wellbeing, meaning & joy.
Ever the trailblazer, she has presented to school districts, organizations and at regional, state, and national conferences around the country, including:
National Title I, National and Texas PTA, Texas Association for Bilingual Education, Grand Prairie ISD, Dallas ISD, Carrollton-Farmer's Branch ISD, Arlington ISD, Edinburgh ISD, Banquete ISD ACE, McAllen Boys & Girls Club ACE, Canadian ISD, Laredo ISD, Ector County ISD, El Paso ISD, Stratford ISD, Mineral Wells ISD, Eagle Mountain-Saginaw ISD, Perryton ISD, Keller ISD, Dimmitt ISD, Hereford ISD, Brownsville ISD, Weslaco ISD Migrant Education, La Feria ISD, Uvalde CISD, Irving ISD, Austin ISD, Harris County Department of Education, Omaha Public Schools, Santa Fe, New Mexico Public Schools, Washoe County School District in Reno, Nevada; Phoenix, Arizona Elementary ISD, Texas Higher Ed Coordinating Board, ESC Region 10, 16, 19, Texas Higher Ed Coordinating Board, Texas State Parental Involvement Conferences, Texas Association of School Boards, Latino Leadership Conferences in Iowa and Nebraska, Counselor's Training Institute in New Jersey, HIPPY, AVANCE, HWNT.
Additional interesting facts about Lucy:
- Grew up in La Colonia Guadalupe, a housing project in a barrio of Laredo, Texas with parents and five siblings. Her family surmounted socioeconomic disadvantages and barriers in great part because their parents instilled the value of an education. Four have college degrees (one Ph.D., one Masters, two Bachelors), one has a technical degree, and the other chose the Air Force as his career.
- Lacking clarity regarding her major, Lucy almost dropped out in her fourth year at North Texas State University. With her professors' support, she persisted, earning a Bachelor's of Science Degree in five years.
- At the age of 29 she married her college sweetheart, Ignacio. He's the son of migrant parents and the first on his mother's side to earn a college degree. They both highly value education, which they instilled in their daughters, and adds passion to Lucy's work.
- Celebrating 34 years of marriage in 2019, together they share parental success: their older daughter, Sol, is a 2009 graduate of UT Austin and Luz is a 2018 graduate of UNT in Denton, their alma mater!
- She credits a spiritual wake-up call, brought on by demands of marriage, motherhood, and a career in a toxic work environment, for placing her on a profound path of love, wisdom and spirituality. The learning that ensued from her awakening is the driving force behind her work today.
- Lucy's original work to empower audiences includes a series of workshops called "Leadership of the Heart — Liderazgo del Corazón." Her creations are bilingual, English & Spanish, but her deeper passion is helping people understand the most important and universal "Language of the Heart."
- Past awards & recognition: Excellence in Service Award, City of Dallas; Leadership Award, American Cancer Society; Volunteer Recognition, Jefferson Intermediate School.

WHO/Europe launches new online laboratory reporting system
WHO/Europe has just launched its new online laboratory data management system (LDMS), an important reporting tool for the regional poliomyelitis (polio) laboratory network. This network of professionals, mandated by WHO/Europe, assists the Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI) in fighting polio in the WHO European Region through laboratory detection of poliovirus.
An online tool for laboratory reporting proved to be valuable during the recent polio outbreak in the central Asian republics and the Russian Federation. Seeing an opportunity to make the reporting process more streamlined and accessible, WHO/Europe worked to create an improved online tool.
The new LDMS provides laboratories in the network with a user-friendly tool for online reporting of results and access to reported data. The reporting process has been streamlined to save laboratories valuable time. In addition to its reporting component, the new site offers overall immunization profiles of the 53 Member States in the Region, and valuable resources such as laboratory manuals and biosafety guidelines.
WHO/Europe provides regular updates on the polio situation in the Region through a series of epidemiological briefs.

Majority of young drivers are revving up for the new driving test changes
With less than a month to go before the UK sees driving tests undergo the biggest change in generations, Marmalade has been delving into the mind-set of the young learner driver to see how they are preparing to deal with the new format on Monday 4th December 2017.
In a recent Twitter poll, Marmalade asked its 4,491 followers which prospective drivers were cramming to pass their driving test before the new format comes into place and who is taking it in their stride. The results revealed that 63% of young drivers aged between 17 – 24 years are choosing to cram in their driving test.
Crispin Moger, CEO for Marmalade, comments: "It's fantastic to see that the majority of young drivers are embracing the driving test changes about to come into place. I believe the new changes are a really positive, much needed adaption and will encourage our next generation of drivers to be confident, prepared and equipped with the necessary skills needed to drive the UK roads safely."
In order to gain a better understanding of the mind-set of the learner drivers ahead of the changes, Marmalade spoke to two employees who are both currently learning to drive.
Social Media Executive Chloe has recently picked up learning to drive after graduating in July. She is really positive about the new changes and is especially thankful for one of them in particular: "Honestly, the fact that there will be a sat nav in the driving test is a life saver. One thing I really struggle with is directions, so I can only see the sat nav as a bonus; I know I will definitely be using one when I have passed. I've already been learning some of the manoeuvers that will be on the new test."
Despite the majority of learner drivers being supportive of the changes, Anthony from Marmalade's Learner Insurance Admin team is doing all he can to pass his test before the changes come into force and has booked an intensive driving course for this month. He has been learning to drive since May but since September has ramped up his driving lessons from one to two per week, to four: "I don't fancy the idea of the new changes, and I would have to spend more money on lessons."
Amanda Green, Learner Driver Week's Driving Instructor of the Year, says: "I wouldn't recommend intensive driving courses to young or new drivers because they don't gain enough driving experience. You can teach anyone to pass a test in a week but it won't make a safe driver. They need life skills so I am extremely supportive of the new driving test changes which will shortly be in place."
In a bid to encourage motorists to be safer and more independent, the Driving and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) has announced that in addition to the traditional mirror, signal, manoeuvring, learner drivers will have to showcase four 'real life' driving skills to pass their test. These 'real life' skills will be: following directions from a sat nav, independent driving increasing to 20 minutes instead of ten, answering a vehicle safety question while driving, and doing one of three possible reversing manoeuvres.
Not everything of the driving test is changing. Learner drivers can expect the test to still last around 40 minutes and the pass mark will remain the same – no more than 15 minor driving faults and no serious or dangerous faults will get you a licence.

I seem to be moving forward through my grief much quicker than last time. You see it's been 1 year, 11 months and 18 days since I lost my son, Hunter. Three months on from losing Hunter we still didn't quite believe what had happened, we still don't believe what happened with Esmae, but it's different this time. Grief doesn't have a set path you can follow. You just take each day as it comes and you have to accept there will be some really dark days, when you feel as if everything has just hit you all over again. There will be good days too however, and you need to learn not to feel guilty about having a good day.
This time round my grief hasn't taken me on the same path, but it's a familiar one, it's easier to navigate. I'm not suggesting for a second losing my daughter has been easier than losing my son, in many ways I feel more cheated this time. What I mean is I generally do find it easier to get through each day, to find my way. I think this is true only because I know better how to cope. I've been learning how to cope each day for almost two years now, but at least this time around I already know how I'm feeling is 'normal'. The new 'normal'. In all honesty I don't remember what it feels like to be the old me. I'm not the person I was two years ago, I'm not the person I was fifteen weeks ago, before I found out my pregnancy would not go full term. I sometimes feel I'm just a shell of the person I used to be. I'm nearly always anxious about the most stupid of things, I've become extremely paranoid and I have lost nearly all my confidence.
I know my limits, I know what I can and cannot manage. There are times though when I think I'm being silly by not being able to lead a full and 'normal' life – going shopping in town on a whim, being around large groups of people I may not know well, going out for drinks to a busy bar. These are things I took for granted before and now the thought of putting myself through situations like those can bring me out in a cold sweat, sometimes it can even feel as if I'm paralysed with anxiety.
Surprisingly though things actually improved a bit whilst I was pregnant with Esmae. My husband even said he was beginning to see the old me again, but since losing her I feel like I'm back to square one – some days I don't even think I'm on the board! I sometimes feel as if I'll only fully get that confidence back when I'm proudly pushing a pram in front of me. Maybe that's because I'll finally feel like I have a purpose in life, something to live for.
I have spent all the time since losing Hunter building an emotional wall. Since Esmae I've had to build it a little higher, but it is helping me get through this all over again. I both love and hate my wall. It shelters me from most of the things in the world that I suddenly started noticing – baby adverts on TV, pregnant women, prams, toddlers, baby aisles in supermarkets, the list goes on...but it also blocks out a lot of the rest of my (old) world. I sometimes feel as if I'm only half living. My more recent memories all seem a little dull, they're all in the dark shadow of the wall. It's as if everything has lost it's colour since the wall went up. I don't dare take it down though.
My wall is not impenetrable however, there are some things such as seeing/hearing new born babies which it cannot protect me against – they filter their way through the cracks. At the same time it's not so high and solid that it doesn't let people in, or my emotions out.
I find it easy to talk to most people about my babies. I want to talk to anyone who asks and wants to listen about my babies. That there is the key point – I will talk to anyone who asks and is willing to listen. It's not a subject everyone is thankful you bring up and then there is the odd time when I don't want to talk.
I thought after losing Esmae that I might be able to open up more to my parents about how I feel, but up until now this hasn't been the case. This time I tried to tell them straight out that it helps me to talk about my babies, their grandchildren. At first this didn't seem to work, they were still looking for my lead all the time, but I had long since given up as my previous attempts to let them in had failed. I assumed they wanted to protect me, but by not mentioning my babies at all they left me doubting how they felt about their grandchildren. Hopefully since writing them a letter and sending them an earlier draft of this blog, which sparked a very tearful (on my part) conversation with my mum, things will become easier for all of us.
It had got to the point where my wall was always up around them, blocking them out, and I couldn't work out how to let them in. I didn't think they truly wanted to see what was the other side of my wall and although I thought I'd tried various ways to let them in, nothing worked, perhaps I was being too subtle. I was trying to find a way of letting them know I needed more from them without causing them unnecessary pain. (I say unnecessary pain, because there's no magic pill that will make this painless for any of us.) I think I still need to help them realise that pain is a natural part of the grieving process though and it can be cathartic. Exhausting, but cathartic. I don't see feeling pain/showing your emotions as a weakness, it just demonstrates you are strong enough to endure each day, strong enough to get out of bed and try to get on with what's left of your life. For the last couple of years I've really needed my parents to realise this. They've been trying so hard not to upset me, but they never fully understood that there is nothing they can do or say that will make me feel any worse. Saying nothing at all is the only thing (for me) which makes it worse.
I'm hopeful after talking openly with my mum that things will change. I still need to work on showing my true emotions in front of her and my dad, but I need them to not feel as if they are walking on eggshells around me and my husband all the time. Saying my babies names might bring tears to my eyes, but I love hearing people talk about them, it reminds me that they mattered. I still need to help my parents realise that it's ok for me to cry, it's ok for me to breakdown, to not be able to breathe because there's a pain in my chest which takes up all the space for air. These are all natural parts of grieving, it's not something I can suddenly switch off and get over. All those things are normal to me now.
Although they'll already know, from this blog, we've started trying again, I think it'll still take some time before my mum will feel comfortable discussing that with me. I want to be able to confide in my mum if I take a test and it shows up negative or tell her how depressing it feels when you don't even get as far as taking a test. I think she feels a bit useless though because she can't just wave a magic wand and fix everything. She has no frame of reference as she never experienced any problems during her pregnancies (although my birth was pretty traumatic, but she took that in her stride!) Sometimes I just need someone to listen, even if they can't tell me everything will work out fine in the end.
Trying to conceive again after a loss is so tough. It can consume your life. We felt last month that we were ready. I think we both sometimes feel the months ticking away and although I feel guilty saying this, I do feel as if we're another year down the line and many more months have been wasted. Unfortunately our first month of trying again didn't work and I thought I'd be ok with it, but during those few days last week I just felt in limbo and it brought back memories of how desperate I felt all those months after Hunter, trying without success. It just hits home again that I should be heavily pregnant right now with Esmae and getting her nursery together.
Perhaps some would say if I feel this way then maybe I'm not ready to start trying again, but it's hard to explain the overwhelming urge to keep on trying to someone who hasn't suffered the loss of a baby, the loss of three babies. We started trying again about three months after losing Hunter and to be honest I sometimes felt a little relieved when we didn't conceive (just for those first couple of months though). I realise now this was probably because we were still so deep in our grief that we weren't quite ready. When we eventually did get pregnant it unfortunately didn't last long. Finding no heartbeat at 7 weeks and then passing the baby three weeks later. The 'Little One', as we refer to her (we feel she would've been a girl), had given us the hope we needed, a definite sign not to give up. We were then lucky enough to conceive Esmae almost straight-away – it was like she was meant to be…
We are now two and a half years further down the line from where we began and although I don't know what the future has in store for us, I do know I'm ready to try again. I'm ready to let it consume me again, to become my life again. It's the only way I can keep getting out of bed each morning trying to move forward.

Michael Frolik and Mikael Backlund each had a goal and an assist in the third period to help the Flames beat the Arizona Coyotes 5-2 on Monday.
Mark Giordano also had a goal and an assist, and Derek Ryan and Austin Czarnik had the other goals for Calgary win its second straight to improve to 3-3-2 since the All-Star break. Czarnik and Ryan combined for a goal and three assists in Saturday's 5-4 win over Pittsburgh, which ended a four-game skid (0-2-2).
"We've had some depth scoring come through, which is important," Flames coach Bill Peters said.
Elias Lindholm assisted on both third-period goals, Rasmus Andersson also had two assists, and Mike Smith stopped 27 shots in his third straight start (2-0-1) for Calgary.
"I feel more like myself in the net and it's paying off," Smith said. "It's a good time of year to be playing well."
Conor Garland and Jordan Weal scored for the Coyotes. Calvin Pickard finished with 29 saves in his third start for Arizona since being claimed off waivers from Philadelphia on Nov. 29.
Czarnik got his second goal in two games after being a healthy scratch for the previous nine, giving the Flames a 3-2 lead with 3:42 left in the second. Subbing in on Calgary's third line again for the injured James Neal, Czarnik snared the puck on a broken play and scored from his knees with a low shot.
"Feels great. Being out that long, it's hard to adjust right away. Your breath is a little short probably," Czarnik said. "To be able to do that builds confidence and I just want to keep that going if I can.
"At the start of the year, I wasn't really finding those spots so I think now it's about getting more to the net and being in a spot to score goals."
Frolik extended Calgary's lead to 4-2 at 5:48 of the third period off Arizona's defensive-zone turnover. Lindholm skated the puck out from the boards and dished to the Czech, who chipped the puck by Pickard stick-side.
Backlund added an empty-netter with 1:12 left.
"It seems liked any time we got momentum they got a goal right back," Coyotes coach Rick Tocchet said. "We've got to make some plays. We need some guys to step up and score goals.
"It's only 3-2 at the start of the third. (There was) still plenty of time to get back in the game."
Ryan opened the scoring as he deflected Giordano's slap shot up on Pickard at 1:34 of the first for his sixth of the season.
The fourth-line center also won seven of 10 faceoffs to get the puck to linemates Andrew Mangiapane and Garnet Hathaway.
"I thought they were really good again tonight. They've been good for a while now," Giordano said. "It seems like every shift they're in the offensive zone working the other team and grinding them. They're playing the right way, playing hard and getting rewarded."
Garland beat Smith with a high backhand to tie it at 6:27 of the second.
Giordano put Calgary up 2-1 with 8:40 left in the middle period. Instead of shooting from his preferred spot near the faceoff circle to the goalie's right, the Calgary captain went forehand to backhand to beat Pickard for his 13th.
Weal, acquired from Philadelphia in January, got his first goal for the Coyotes on the power play with 5:39 left in the period. He took a cross-ice feed from Alex Galchenyuk and whipped a wrist shot past Smith's shoulder.
NOTES: The Flames improved to 21-1-0 this season when leading after two periods. ... Flames D T.J. Brodie was scratched prior to the game and said to be day-to-day with an undisclosed injury, which promoted Andersson to Calgary's top pairing alongside Giordano. ... Neal missed a second straight game with an upper-body injury. ... The Coyotes have lost the teams' first three meetings this season. Arizona will host Calgary in the final matchup on March 7. ... Weal had just one assist in his first 15 games with the Coyotes. ... Garland has four goals in his last 10 games.
Coyotes: At Edmonton on Tuesday night before closing out their western Canada swing Thursday night at Vancouver.
Flames: Host the New York Islanders on Wednesday night.

Leona Lewis replaces Nicole Scherzinger in Cats on Broadway
X Factor winner Leona Lewis will replace Nicole Scherzinger as Grizabella in the Broadway revival of Cats.
The singer announced the news on Twitter, saying: "Can't even believe this. I'm thrilled & honoured to announce I'll be playing the part of Grizabella in @CatsBroadway!"
The part had been played by former Pussycat Doll Scherzinger in London and she was due to return to the theatre for the Broadway version but pulled out just before rehearsals began.
Andrew Lloyd Webber confirmed she dropped out to return to the UK's X Factor judging panel and admitted he was "furious" about it.
At the time he told The Economist Radio: "I mean, she's crazy. But the American producers just took a view - 'Well, fine, we'll get somebody else', because she's actually not very well known in America, amazingly. She's much better known here."
The musical theatre supremo said Scherzinger's move had made him look foolish.
He said: "I'm furious because I really believe she's the most fantastically talented girl and I went out on a limb to get her for the London Palladium here, and it makes me look like an absolute twot with them all.
"But never mind, there'll be another girl on Broadway and Nicole will not get her Tony Award."
Lloyd Webber tweeted: "Very excited to welcome @leonalewis to the @CatsMusical family in @CatsBroadway. #TeamALW."
Lewis won the third series of The X Factor in 2006 and went on to achieve success with singles including Bleeding Love, Run and Better In Time.

Fewer diversions; more transparency
The state legislative session that ended recently produced a number of important achievements, from a balanced budget to tax relief to improvements in transportation. Along with those accomplishments, many of us in the House are especially proud of the steps we took to make the state budget more accountable and transparent.
From time to time over the last several years, you may have read in the newspaper about a growing problem in the way Texas manages your money. The state would collect a fee for a specific purpose and that money would go into what is called a dedicated account. For example, a fee collected from drunken drivers goes into an account that is dedicated to improving trauma care at hospitals. The state budget is filled with hundreds of these dedicated accounts.
Here's the problem: Back in the early 1990s, legislators discovered that it would be easier to balance the budget by leaving some of the money in those dedicated accounts unspent. They passed a law saying that whatever money was sitting in those accounts could be counted for "certification," which is the official process by which the state comptroller says that the state will collect enough money to fund the budget that legislators have written for the next two years.
Over time, more of those unspent dollars in dedicated accounts piled up. In a fast-growing state with a justified aversion to tax increases, these available piles of money made it easier to balance the budget. But the state was using fee revenue far differently from how it had promised taxpayers. And this was not small change. The practice built and built over time, to the point where almost $5 billion was sitting in dedicated accounts.
Three years ago, my Texas House colleagues and I set out to end this. We knew that it wouldn't happen overnight but believed that we had to guide the state toward a more responsible and transparent use of these dollars. The House began to closely study the issue in the summer of 2012, and the next year, we were able to reduce the amount of money sitting in dedicated accounts by about $1 billion.
We reduced it even further — by about $1 billion more — in this year's legislative session. As in 2013, we got there in part by using some dedicated accounts for their intended purpose. For example, we allocated $195 million from the trauma account to the hospitals that have long been owed that money.
In other cases, we simply stopped collecting the fees that were flowing into these accounts, resulting in a sizable tax cut for many Texans. As part of the House's efforts to reduce these accounts, we eliminated a $200 professional fee on engineers, land surveyors, optometrists and other professionals. Because of this relief, more than 600,000 Texans will save a combined $125 million annually — the largest tax cut on individuals delivered by the Legislature this year.
The House's commitment to budget transparency didn't stop there. Some of the money in the State Highway Fund (which largely comes from the gas tax) has for decades been diverted to other programs. We ended those diversions this year, providing an additional $1.3 billion for transportation. We also ensured that almost all of the sales tax that is collected on sporting goods will be used as once intended — to maintain and improve state parks.
In other words, not only did we make the budget more transparent, but those efforts resulted in real benefits for Texas: lower fees on professionals, a boost for transportation and a consistent revenue stream for a parks system that is one of this state's great treasures.
I'm proud of the House's work on this issue, and I assure you we're going to keep it up. It's the hard work of Texans that allows us to have a state budget in the first place. The least we can do in return is be honest and straightfoward about how we are using your money.
Republican Joe Straus represents Bexar County in the Texas House of Representatives, where he also serves as speaker.

New York City is packed with sites for tourists and locals to enjoy. Most — like the Empire State Building, Times Square, and the Statue of Liberty — are widely known.
But throughout the massive city, there are plenty of hidden attractions and secrets that might surprise even some locals. There's a 25-foot waterfall flowing in the middle of Manhattan, for example.
In the midst of this exciting city with so many famous attractions, don't be afraid to explore the hidden gems.
Courtney Verrill contributed reporting to an earlier version of this article.
There's a nearly invincible statue in Battery Park.
While the Twin Towers were completely destroyed during the 9/11 attacks, this metallic sphere sculpture, located in the middle of the towers, somehow remained standing. It was designed by German sculptor Fritz Koenig in 1971. Since 9/11, it has been moved to Battery Park, where it still remains standing to this day. The sphere has become a symbol of hope and strength.
You can still visit a subway stop that has been closed since 1945.
Gaining access to the now-closed City Hall subway station is difficult. While the New York Transit Museum hosts tours through the facility, you still have to pass a background check just to get in, and the waiting list fills up quickly. MTA train conductors on the 6 subway line get to see it regularly, though — after the downtown 6 train makes its last stop at the Brooklyn Bridge station, it travels through the old City Hall subway to make its way back uptown.
There's a place in Staten Island where old boats go to die.
On the edge of Staten Island lie hundreds of old, rusty boats at the Arthur Kill Ship Graveyard. Some boats and their parts date back to before World War I. The site is popular with both photographers and historians. It cannot be viewed on foot but is accessible by kayaks through tours by Kayak East. Be careful of trespassing — the boat graveyard has a residential neighbor.
A 25-foot waterfall flows in Midtown.
In Greenacre Park in Midtown, located on 51st Street between 3rd Avenue and 2nd Avenue, a 25-foot waterfall is a welcome respite. Built in 1971, the park and waterfall create some beautiful scenery in the otherwise urban area.
This cemetery in Brooklyn is the nation's second most-visited tourist attraction, right behind Niagara Falls.
The beautiful Charlotte Canda grave at Brooklyn's historic @historicgreenwood the day after the storm! She died in a horse carriage accident in New York returning from her 17th birthday party at Waverly Place and Broadway. Near by, lies her fiancé, Charles Albert Jarrett de la Marie, who committed suicide. Found and photographed by @lukejspencer #atlasobscura #urbex #curiousity #adventure #hidden #amazing #photooftheday #picoftheday #travel #wonder #charlottecanda #greenwoodcemetery
Green-Wood cemetery in Brooklyn was one of America's first rural cemeteries and is now a National Historic Landmark. It is 478 acres, and has 560,000 permanent residents — including Civil War generals and baseball legends. The site has spectacular scenery, beautiful sculptures, and even historical trolly tours for $15.
An original piece of the Berlin Wall is in Midtown.
After the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, pieces were divided up and sold. A part of the famed wall made its way to New York City and has since moved to an outdoor plaza at 520 Madison Avenue.
There's an aerial tram that takes you over the East River.
There's a narrow island called Roosevelt Island in the East River. Since it's mostly residential, it's not very popular for tourists — but don't let that stop you from going on the Roosevelt Island Aerial Tram. The tram uses the same MetroCard system as the subway, and has the same fares ($2.75 per ride). Traveling at 3,100 feet, it holds up to 110 people and makes about 115 rides per day. The tram offers a unique view of Manhattan's skyline.
The benches in Central Park tell a story.

Central Park has thousands of benches for people to sit down and enjoy the view. As it turns out, each bench has its own story, literally. There are quotes written on the benches, ranging from beautiful love stories to silly limericks. The Adopt-a-Bench program started in 1986 to help fund and maintain the beauty of Central Park. Anyone can get any quote engraved on a bench with a donation of $10,000.
Alice can be found not only in Wonderland, but in Central Park.
A statue of Alice in Wonderland has stood in Central Park since 1959. Located on the east side of the park at 75th Street, the statue is very popular with children, who love to climb over it and explore its hiding places. Philanthropist George Delacorte had it built in memory of his late wife. His nonsensical poem, "The Jabberwocky," is engraved on the statue.
There's an interesting way to tell a secret at Grand Central.
Grand Central Terminal has dozens of stores and food shops, but there is also a secret archway where you can whisper secrets into the walls. When two people stand at the diagonal arches in front of the Oyster Bar & Restaurant, and whisper into the walls, the person on the opposite archway is able to hear the whispers clearly.
Want to let off some steam? Visit the gun range located in Manhattan.
Hidden downstairs in the Dezer Building, located at 20 West 20th Street, is the Westside Rifle & Pistol Range. That's right — a 50-foot gun range, right in the middle of Manhattan. They offer a membership, FFL services, rentals, and training.

"Lekker performance, boys" – Jenya Demidenok, 1:30pm
A superlative performance by the Herston Hatchets on Sunday afternoon saw them demolish traditional rivals, Woodridge Rodelu, 6-1. The opposition were simply unable to cope with the pace of the Hatchets attack, and can have no complaints about the final scoreline.
The absence of co-player-manager 'Krazy Kregg' Laundon gave co-player-manager Jenya Demidenok free reign over team selection for the first time this year, and he took full advantage. Demidenok, who is widely regarded to be the most Eastern-European man in the QIF Sunday Premier division, made no less than five changes to the first XI and shifted to a new formation in the search for goals. Laundon was unavailable for comment, but is believed to be angry.
However, the one change that Demidenok was unable to make regarded the referee. Academy Award nominee John Hurt returned for an encore performance, once again playing the critically-acclaimed role of a jaded and lonely middle-aged man who has lost control of his entire life except for his time on the pitch as a Sunday-league referee. It was another enthralling performance, and observers were heard to remark that the perverted pleasure on Mr. Hurt's face as he, yet again, stopped a fellow human from enjoying themselves, was "right up there" with his depiction of Elephant Man in the eponymous 1980 classic.
However, the game continued. A tight first fifteen minutes gave way to a more open first half as Woodridge players began to tire. Sure enough, the first goal came in the 33rd minute. A pinpoint cross from Sam Shum found Demidenok in space, and 'Yevgeny' made no mistake. 1-0.
The second goal came not long afterwards. 'The Irish Terrier' Adam Irelandes somehow sprung the referee's offside trap and passed the ball across the face for Andrew Lee to tap in. It was Lee's first ever goal for the club and the delight was obvious on his small face.
Half-time smoko arrived with the score still at 2-0. 'Dangerous' Demidenok was still furious with the boys, and wasted no time in letting them know that he expected more from the second half. So it was a downcast Herston side that re-took the field for the second half, bearing down under the weight of expectation from their loyal brigade of supporters.
Luckily, those supporters didn't have long to wait for some more action. Irelandes, with an uncharacteristic show of bottle, executed the gegenpressen to perfection and won the ball back close to goal. With cries of 'turnover's good!' from the referee, Irelandes had time to smash the ball into the roof of the net. An exuberant celebration by the man from Mackay ended with a large smile on his tiny face but a disappointingly short knee-slide.
A bit of complacency perhaps crept into the Herston gameplay, as a fast break yielded an excellent opportunity for Woodridge. The opposition striker cleverly realised that, since he had been called offside last attack, it was his turn to be onside. He exploited this to the maximum by taking up a position at least twenty metres behind the last Hatchets defender, but still had to finish smartly. This he did, striking the ball right out of the sweet-spot of his size-four foot and finding the bottom corner.
Herston responded with some intense pressure. The next goal was only a matter of time, and it came courtesy of compact midfielder Michael Alim. The first-year man's eyes lit right up in the middle of his miniature face as he pounced on a error by the oversized Woodridge goalkeeper and tapped in at the far post. All six of the devoted Hatchets fans that had made the journey out to the game could have been forgiven for thinking the game was over as a spectacle, but they couldn't have been more wrong.
Minutes later, a seemingly innocuous clearance from a Woodridge player fell to hulking Herston defender Simon Bennet, who had time and space to look up, 30 yards from goal. Bennet initially shaped to pass, but as the cries of "fookin' 'ave it!" from serial bum-slapper and #1 Hatchets fan Robert Walsh rang out around Taringa Park Stadium, he thought better of it. Desperately seeking the approval he never got from his father, Bennet struck the ball towards goal. Time slowed to a crawl as the ball curved over the boulder-like goalie. As it settled in the back of the net, Bennet was already half-way to the pavilion, a broad smile gleaming on his massive face. The subsequent knee-slide has already been described as an early 'slide-of-the-season' contender.
Minutes later, Bennet stooped to head in a pinpoint cross from Tuscan hard man Steven Cecchi, and the lead had stretched to an insurmountable 6-1. It was no less than the Hatchets deserved for an excellent display. Even the notoriously hard to please Demidenok will have problems finding flaws in this performance.
The next game for the Herston Hatchets is on Sunday 11 May, at Prentice Park. Kickoff will be at 11:30am. Tickets are still available.

This series covers all areas of research at Perimeter Institute, as well as those outside of PI's scope.
In the last few years there has been a burst of
progress in the field of massive gravity. The construction of consistent
theories in which the graviton has a small mass has in turn led to the
development a new family of compelling, consistent low-energy modifications of
General Relativity. These theories improve our understanding of the
interplay between gravity and particle physics and provide new approaches to
solving the cosmological constant problem. In this talk I will review
While the luminosity and mass distributions of quasars
has evolved dramatically with cosmic time, the physical properties of quasars
of a given luminosity are remarkably independent of redshift. I will describe recent results on the spectra
of luminous quasars, the dark matter halos in which they sit, and the
intergalactic medium of their host galaxies, that are essentially
indistinguishable from moderate redshifts to z>6.
Advanced LIGO (aLIGO) and Advanced Virgo (AdV) are kilometer-scale
gravitational wave (GW) detectors that are expected to yield the first
direct observations of gravitational waves. I will describe the
currently projected schedule, sensitivity, and sky
localization accuracy for the GW detector network in the next decade.
will discuss some basic notions in the theory of phonology (sound systems
in language). The sounds of a language are generally assumed to be
composed of smaller constituents, called features. The features that
make up a sound cannot be directly obtained from its pronunciation, but
rather must be inferred from the system of contrasts that are at play
in a particular language. How to determine which features are contrastive

I give an account of the Machian approach to dynamics,
from Mach's critique of Newton to the work of Barbour, Bertotti, York and
O'Murchadha, which culminated in the theory of Shape Dynamics, a new and
original way of thinking about General Relativity. I conclude commenting on the
present research lines in Shape Dynamics, and the opportunity it offers to
solve the problem of time in quantum gravity.

Do you remember last year when there were reports of George Lucas scouting new Star Warsfilming locations in Belfast, and we said that was silly and he was probably just popping along to visit the Game of Thrones set?
Well, it turns out that he was just popping along to visit the Game of Thrones set. Not saying we have Force visions, but we're not saying we don't…
As reported by Entertainment Weekly, the bearded one wasn't just there to remind himself what a physical set looks like, but to chat to showrunners David Benioff and DB Weiss.
The duo were announced last year to be working on a new Star Wars trilogy and although they didn't give much away, Weiss did joke: "We feel we're not quite hated enough already by people we don't know."
Although a Knights of the Old Republic trilogy has been rumoured, Weiss quipped: "Our Captain Phasma origin story is going to blow people away."
Ser Davos Seaworth actor Liam Cunningham gave a bit more away, all while having a dig at Disney's Star Wars films. He said: "It's funny because George came here and talked to the boys, and the one thing the Star Wars franchise has been missing lately is decent storytelling.
"There's a lot of brilliant stuff in Star Wars, it's an epic franchise, but occasionally, story-wise, it's left a little to be desired.
"Dan and David are brilliant at surprises and can transfer the demographic from this show to that. They're incredible at adapting a world and making it their own and they could add a layer of complexity to it.
"I'd love it if they gave me some words to say, though I'd probably just be in a helmet."
If you want to be cast in one of Disney's Star Wars movie, maybe don't give them some backhanded compliments. It works for Mark Hamill, but he's part of the furniture.
The concluding part of the new trilogy, Episode IX, will be released on December 19 in the UK and December 20 in the US.
Game of Thrones season 8 will premiere on April 14, 2019

If you're an owner who wants to sell your home or condo, it's critical to make sure you're doing the "right" things to ensure you get SOLD.
Below you'll find the top 7 reasons homes don't sell -- and how to avoid making them!
Limiting Showings
Sometimes when I meet with seller clients, they tell me "we want to only show our home on the weekends" or "our child naps between 1 and 3, so we don't want any showings during that time." While there can be extenuating circumstances that don't allow showings, if you have general restrictions on showings, many times a buyer will just "move on" if they can't see your house/condo, and not try to schedule their showing during a different time.
The answer: Selling is a numbers game. The more prospects through your property, the higher the probability of getting offers. Allow showings of your home/condo when buyers want to see it if at all possible. A home must be seen to get sold. At Daley and Company, all of our showings are accompanied by one of our licensed agents (with rare exceptions.) This means: we're on site to advocate for your home, ensure key features are highlighted – and we're boots on the ground to hear feedback about the buyer's interest and sometimes, constructive criticism that can aid in the listing campaign.
Inferior Photos/Videos
The Internet has transformed real estate. Over 76% of buyers start their search on-line, (on their smart phone!) whether they live in Vero or Virginia. And buyers' attention spans are shorter than ever: 8 seconds is the time a buyer takes to determine whether or not to click 'more info.' As a result of this new shopping dynamic, imagery is everything - and creates the critical first impression of your home. Amateur, iPhone or very few photos of a property will not spark buyer intrigue. Beautiful photography enables buyer to imagine what it'd be like to live in your home.
The answer: At Daley and Company all of our listings are professionally photographed, with virtual tours – and often, aerials and drone video.
Incorrect Photo Order
Another key element to listing photos is the order in which they appear. Start with your 'wow!' shot. The average buyer looks at the first three photos before deciding to view additional photos or to move onto the next property listing. If your first three photos don't pique prospective buyers' interest, you've lost them!
The answer: At Daley and Company we always use our 'wow' shot at the lead image in our listings. What's the 'wow' shot? Depends on your house – could be pool area, water view, or kitchen. Generally, a careful review the photo shoot images make it obvious to your REALTOR which photos are your homerun images to incorporate into your marketing.
Not In Price Band
pre-Internet, when a buyer was searching for a new home/condo, they'd visit a Realtor's office and look through a big book of property listings. Now, 76% of buyers start their search on the internet. As with imagery, the Internet has transformed how buyers search for property, as buyers now search in price bands. What is a price band? Think price range: nearly all real estate websites have a search method that allows you to search properties between X and X price. These search fields are usually pre-populated with even numbers, now conditioning buyers to search in even numbers, eg between $300,000 and $325,000.
Why is this important? If you priced your home at $299,999, you'd be an invisible buyer that was looking in the price band of $300,000 to $325,000. At $300,000, you'd be visible to buyers searching $250-300,000 AND those searching $300-325,000. (Rule of thumb: the bigger the price tag, the bigger the price band.) In a goal to attract as many eyeballs as possible, that $1 could prove extremely costly!
The answer: proper price band placement is critical when determining a list price for your property to ensure your home is visible to ALL prospective buyers. Consult with your Realtor to find out in which price band your home should be!
Not Properly Staged
we live in an HGTV world in which buyers expect homes they tour to look like model homes, rewarding those who do with strong offers and lesser days on market, and penalizing those that do not with either no offers (no showings!) or low offers to ding sellers for work buyers perceive as critical to make the house their own. That means: staging is now a vital part of preparing your home for sale. Staging is about maximizing the buyer perception of value of your home. When it's time to sell, your home's a product getting ready to launch into the marketplace. Take a hard look at the photos of other homes for sale in your price sector – aka 'the competition'. You may love your purple accent wall, but it will distract buyers, and those who're interested will deduct the cost of repaint +++ from any offer made. A soft stage is ALWAYS part of preparing your home for sale, including de-cluttering, clearing counters, editing/removing furnishings from rooms, removing personal photos and artificial greenery. Repaint your front door! Replace that worn sod! Look at your house through buyers eyes. And: clean, clean, and clean again. And soft stage prior to photos – looking at your razor in the shower detracts from your shower! Full staging brings in leased furniture, artwork, accessories, rugs -- may be necessary in certain circumstances – whether a property in the high end of your market, or you simply want to maximize your sale price and minimize your days on market. This work before going on the market is often the most important work of your home sale. (Remember, one chance at a first impression!) Full staging can also extend to include judicious investment in items like painting cabinetry, interior or exterior repaint, removing dated window treatments, changing hardware and lighting or removing dated wall paper.
The answer: Have your Realtor walk through the house with you as a perspective buyer to devise your action plan to create the highest possible perceived value. At Daley and Company, part of our listing service includes assessment and management of items where judicious investment can offer a strong return on investment -- paint being the most potent renovation tool in your arsenal. Full staging is an investment that can run from $5,000-50,000 – that results in a higher perception of value, and often, a faster sale and a sale price that exceeds the cost of the differential between the property's likely sale price if not staged and price achieved staged. We can offer some incredible case histories in support of stating and are one of the few firms in town who employ this critical tactic. PS" If you've not made recent updates that most buyers would want, your pricing needs to be reflective of the reality that most buyers will want to re-invest in cosmetic updates you've not made. At Daley and Company, we monetize the top items a Seller can do pre-list to get a bigger bang for their buck – or advise on a price as is. Your money, your decision. If it goes to market not updated, we can virtually stage new paint, new cabinets, new flooring – to help your likely buyer envision what the house could be.
Hiring a Family Member, Friend, or a 'Limited Service' Broker
This can be a great thing if your family member or friend is an experienced, full time, professional Realtor.) However, if you know are only having them represent you as a favor, you aren't doing yourself any favors. Selling a property is a business decision – and it matters with whom you choose to list. Realtors that work full time at their profession bring a different skill set that does a 'hobbyist' who may only handle one or two transactions a year.
Answer #1: choose your Realtor by asking them about their experience, their years in the business, and most importantly, how they plan on marketing your home or condo. Hiring a "limited service" broker: there are some real estate agents that will charge a nominal fee to get you set up with a listing in the Multiple Listing Service (MLS). This type of broker usually has one to two price fees based on services you choose. Keep in mind this business model commonly includes just putting your home in the MLS. As a home seller, you are then responsible (usually) for your own photographs, description and any additional marketing for your house. A legitimate option IF you're a marketer skilled at print and internet mediums, graphic design, versed in and can obtain the requisite real estate contracts, an expert negotiator, and are comfortable representing yourself in the sale of your house and accompanying all showings. However, if you fall short on any of these qualities, you will most likely leave money on the table - if the house/condo ends up selling.
Answer #2: Hire a professional Realtor, to represent you, market for you, negotiate for you, and handle the myriad of details involved in selling (and closing) one of your most important assets. At Daley and Company our service delivery and average list to sell ratio of 95.5% means that your proceeds check will probably be bigger than were you to go it FSBO or with a limited service broker.
The Price is Too High
This is the #1 reason that homes/condos fail to sell. Price and presentation MUST BE CONGRUENT. Don't want to/cannot stage, paint or renovate? That's fine – just be certain that your price is consistent with condition. The longer your property stays on the market, the more your negotiation power diminishes. That's why we think it's a huge tactical error for sellers to say 'let's start at this higher price and if it doesn't sell, we'll drop the price." If you are priced too high, you can turn off buyers that think you are priced too high and they don't want to insult you with a lower offer, or would be impossible to do a deal with.
The answer: talk to a professional Realtor about pricing and all the aspects involved with it. Pricing is a strategy in and itself, and can create a sense of urgency. At Daley and Company, we always advise listing price based upon a current market analysis that we conduct and share with you, as well as analysis of likely competition and short and long term market forces that may impact your property. Real sales – not asking prices – combine with current competition and on-going macro and micro market dynamics to provide clear trends on the most advantageous pricing strategy to get your home sold fast and for top dollar!

This supremely compact folding trolley is an update on PowaKaddy's highly successful C2 model. It takes a superb design and adds new innovations to further lift the product.

It really is easy to assemble and it stows away neatly – Ideal for those with limited boot space.
On the course, it performs strongly. Its lightness means it's easy to manoeuvre but it also feels very stable and a variety of bag types sit sturdily upon it.

Periodic fever syndrome is a group of disorders in which a child has recurrent episodes of fever over time, usually accompanied by the same symptoms. Each episode of fever usually lasts roughly the same length of time. These disorders are genetic conditions that are very rare. Periodic fever, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis and adenitis (PFAPA) is the most common type of periodic fever syndrome in children. Other common types include familial Mediterranean fever (FMF).
Symptoms that appear with the recurrent fever associated with periodic fever syndrome include:
Other symptoms may occur as well, but they are generally consistent from episode to episode for each child.
Doctors at Riley at IU Health use the following tests to diagnose periodic fever syndrome:
There is no cure for periodic fever syndrome, though treatment can usually help prevent symptoms of the condition. Different treatments are used for different syndromes. Your child's rheumatologist may prescribe anti-inflammatory medicines to help reduce the symptoms.
