For the past 10 years, I've worked hard for my community. I've brought neighbours together to make local improvements as the founder of the 12 Community Alliance. I've also worked in this community for years and raised my three young children here.
All I want is to build a strong community and help provide opportunities to those who are continuously pushed to the sidelines. This is exactly why I submitted my nomination to run to be Toronto City Councillor in Ward 12. To work for those who live in this community. To help my neighbours, community leaders, young people trying to find opportunities, families looking out for their young ones, or our seniors who need more support.
The announcement by Premier Ford to slash Toronto Council from 47 representatives to 25, without any local conversations and consultation is wrong. Like what has been happening for 33 years in our community, a politician is making a decision without talking to you. I believe Ward 12 needs better representation, not less.
I believe YOU have to be consulted, engaged and asked for your input on this important matter. The question here is, do you believe you have good representation in Ward 12? Can you see your councilor when you need to, and get the help you need?
I'm in this race to make sure all people in our communities are represented at our City Hall. Over the next couple of months, as decisions are made about the makeup of our Toronto City Council, the boundaries of the community I'm running to represent may change. But my commitment to YOU, the communities and the people within them will still stay the same. I'll still be running to give YOU a new choice - a choice of a proven leader who will work hard to represent you every single day.
I want to hear from you on this issue, email me and call me to talk about what you believe needs to happen.
My best,
Lekan Olawoye

I offer psychodynamic counselling and psychoanalytic psychotherapy in Brighton and Hove. I currently work in Phoenix Therapy Practice. I am BACP accredited.
What is psychodynamic counselling?
This type of client-led, relational counselling can help with depression, anxiety, trauma and a wide range of other issues. It is especially helpful when your relational patterns no longer work, causing you distress and problems in your life. It can help you address past traumas and the resulting beliefs and habits you might not be fully aware of and give you a deeper understanding of the underlying issues, rather than addressing just the symptoms themselves.
Benefits of the psychodynamic approach (more information here) are linked to the development of inner capacities and resources. It seeks not only to relieve distressing and unhelpful symptoms but also helps with the development and strengthening of inner resources and capacities to improve the overall quality of life.
What are the benefits?
- Increasing self-esteem
- Developing the ability to have more satisfying relationships
- Increasing confidence in personal abilities
- Increasing understanding of self and others
- Recognition and ability to tolerate a wider range of emotions
- Gradually becoming more able to face issues and difficulties
- Benefits that endure and increase with time
How does it work?
- Focusing on recognizing and expressing feelings
- Recognizing how we try to avoid thoughts and feelings that are distressing
- Identifying recurring themes and patterns
- Talking about past experience and how it might impact currently
- Exploring how we relate to others
- Looking at themes that arise in the therapeutic relationship may reveal useful information
- Encouraging free expression and exploration of whatever comes to mind (source: Talking Therapy Psychotherapy and Counselling Centre)
My approach
I believe that no issue is too small nor too great to bring to therapy – if it causes you pain, you will benefit from opening up about it in the long run. I tend to see all presented themes as material for exploration and every one's internal world as something that needs to be approached with curiosity and openness. I support clients non-judgementally, on a journey of self-exploration and try to help identify tendencies and patterns that might be causing them distress. My approach is suitable for adults of all ages and backgrounds and also LGBTQ/kink and poly-friendly. I work in a clinic which is actively inclusive and open to diversity.
I normally work on a long term, open-ended basis, seeing clients (same day and time every week) and staying with them until they feel they have resolved their issue.
It is also possible to contract short term counselling (12 sessions) if you are coming with a particular theme or issue you want to explore and focus on.

WinnerYassin Matni
A2 Studio: Justified winner of the first AnArchi Architecture Awards because of the sense of lighting, composition and material. A strong architectural design supports the strength of the visualization. The furniture in the lower left corner negates the picture to some extent because it is placed too far in the front of the image and on the edge of the light. This image breathes control of both architecture, the knowledge of light and software.
Honorable mentionsWieger Meijer
A2 Studio: This image shows that the visualisator has a lot of knowledge about the software and cares about both graphical and architectural detail. This visualization shows that the control of colors can lift a rendering to a higher level.
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/3″][vc_single_image border_color="grey" img_link_target="_self" image="6062″ img_size="900×900″ alignment="center" img_link_large="yes"][vc_column_text]Tamar Tsanava
A2 Studio: A clear and abstract image that attracts the eye, especially because of the extraordinary choice of colored abstract blocks in a black and white environment with a person next to it. These kind of images become stronger when the details are designed with care. Both the textures and the person should have been paid more attention to.
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width="1/3″][vc_single_image border_color="grey" img_link_target="_self" image="6060″ img_size="900×900″ alignment="center" img_link_large="yes"][vc_column_text]Stefan Nechita
A2 Studio: A very powerful composition and a brave choice for black and white. But when someone uses this kind of 'simple' image (or in this case a picture with a small visualization), you want the rendering to fit seamlessly into the photo. The contrast between the rendering and the photo don't match and so the two images have become disassociated from each other.
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/3″][vc_single_image border_color="grey" img_link_target="_self" image="6056″ img_size="900×900″ alignment="center" img_link_large="yes"][vc_column_text]Roberto Magnanini
A2 Studio: Especially the composition of the image with the centrally situated stairs and a complete 3D environment, including the greenery, appeals to us. The materialization has also been produced with great care. A more appealing lighting with a person could have given the image more strength.
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/3″][vc_single_image border_color="grey" img_link_target="_self" image="6055″ img_size="900×900″ alignment="center" img_link_large="yes"][vc_column_text]Rik van Ginkel
A2 Studio: This rendering is characterized by its maturity; great architecture, suitable contrasting colors of the sky and the interior, post processing of people and the subtle pattern. The choice to render the image in low quality surprises the jury.

How to Decorate a Wedding Cake With Edible Flowers
If you're planning a wedding, chances are at least one baker has tried to talk you into a cake covered in fondant. This look, while popular right now, has one fatal flaw: Fondant doesn't taste good. Picture this as an alternative: a simple tiered cake covered in soft, delicious frosting and topped with brightly colored hibiscus sugar flowers.
Floral Options
There are actually many options when it comes to using edible flowers for cake decorating. The first option is to use fresh edible blossoms (these are varieties that are completely safe to eat, upgrading them from a garnish to an actual element of the dish). You might even be surprised at the delicious and subtle flavor of some flowers you'd previously only thought to look at. In order to create a lush and luxurious feeling, Continue Reading

Tokyo—Toshiba Corporation (TOKYO: 6502), one of the leading global suppliers of hydro power generating equipment, today announced that its Chinese consolidated subsidiary, Toshiba Hydro Power (Hangzhou) Co., Ltd. (THPC), a joint venture with Sinohydro Corporation of China, has completed an expansion of its assembly and machining shop and the construction of an advanced hydraulic research laboratory equipped with a cutting-edge hydro turbine model test facility.
The plant expansion allows the company to manufacture 600MW class hydro power generation equipment, the world's largest class of equipment, and to double its manufactured output. The expansion positions THPC to meet growing demand for hydro power in China and the world market, most notably India and Southeast Asia.
Alongside the expansion, THPC has also constructed China's first[1] hydro power R&D facility built by a joint venture, and is now positioned to supply high-quality products by drawing on Toshiba's rich expertise in R&D, design and high-quality manufacturing skills.
THPC celebrated its fifth anniversary of operation and the new additions to its facilities with a completion ceremony at its facility today, attended by representatives from the JV partners. Since it was established in January 2005, THPC has supported a successful business expansion by supplying approximately 100 hydro turbines and generators, mainly to Chinese projects. Most notably, in May this year THPC won a major contract to supply a 4x320MW pumped storage hydro power plant system at the Qingyuan Pumped Storage Power Station in Guangdong Province.
THPC's manufacturing operation includes casting, welding, assembly and machining and a coil shop. Since fiscal 2006, the company has invested a total of 170-million RMB (approximately US$25 million) in building up its production capability and facilities. Recent investments include the November 2008 expansion of the coil shop and installation of advanced equipment for production of world-class electrical components for hydro turbine generators parts, including coils and poles.
Toshiba Group will continue to seek to secure more contracts in China, and to expand its hydro power business in other key markets, including North America and South America, India and Southeast Asia, where demand for hydro power systems is strong.
Strong Growth for Hydro Power Generation Equipment in the Chinese Market
Hydro power generation is the world's most widely used renewable energy source. In respect of energy strategy and achieving an optimized energy generation mix, stable output and balanced operating costs, Toshiba recognizes hydro power generation as equal in importance to nuclear and thermal power, including geothermal energy. China leads the world in the scale of hydro power plant construction, and half of all new projects now underway are in the Chinese market[2]. Growth is expected to continue, driven by China's continued economic expansion and increasing need for environmentally friendly renewable energy. The installed capacity of hydro power generating equipment is expected to reach 300GW in 2020, approximately double the current level[3]. There are now many plans to build large scale hydro power plants around the world and, where possible, customers are mobbing toward employing large scale machine in the 600MW class in these projects.

Each season brings its own wonders, and there is much to enjoy at this time of year. The weather has been changeable here, but often warm enough to work in the garden or just sit with a cup of tea and enjoy the peonies and celandines that are flowering right now.
Today is my daughter's 15th birthday, so we had a special breakfast of warm bagels, frothy coffee and cloudy apple juice while she opened her presents this morning. She received a lot of books as she reads almost as much as I do, and I have planned a trip to Brighton this summer – our first time away for several years.
Then my youngest son's birthday is on Saturday and he will be 18! I can barely believe that I will have 2 adult children. (I'm still struggling to be a grown up myself).
I am relieved to have finished my last assignment of this school year. Apart from an exam in a couple of weeks (best not think about that), there are no more essays until October. I do, strangely perhaps, enjoy writing essays. But at the same time, they do tend to take over your life, so I am glad of the break. I will have more time to paint and do other non-course related things for a few months.
Has anyone watched the new Netflix series 'Anne with an E'? Emily and I have finished all the episodes and thought it was absolutely wonderful – the cast and writing is superb and the opening credit sequence is one of my most favourite ever. I do wish there were more uplifting films and shows like this available. As evident in the unspeakable events in Manchester last night, there is enough horrific violence and heartache in the world without being constantly bombarded with it in our entertainment.
I just wanted to say thank you, dear readers, for continuing to stop by here and for your kind comments. My posting has been erratic lately due to many obligations, but I hope to settle into a better rhythm over the summer months and I do appreciate every single word from you. Have a lovely week x
Years ago when I first started blogging, I did so because I had started to learn to draw and paint and I wanted to share my attempts as a way to encourage myself to keep going as well as sharing some of the beauty of nature as much as my beginning efforts allowed.
I've kind of veered away from making art over the last year, and I've noticed my life is the lesser for it. I miss collecting small treasures of leaves, acorns and stones from the garden or while walking and trying to present what I see with paper, line, shape, colour. Lately I've been returning to the practice. I have some beautiful books on botanical and natural history illustration by Rosie Martin that I am working through. It takes continual effort to not get frustrated with my lack of skill and to focus on the process, but I'm getting there.
I intend to return to sharing more of my drawings and paintings here, along with a few words in the form of a nature journal or a poem or short story. I'd like to keep notes on the weather, wildlife, flora, and other aspects of the natural world. There is so much happening that we miss if we don't pay attention. And life's too short not to pay attention.
It is that time of year, when cosying up on the sofa with yarn and needles is the perfect activity for increasingly frosty days. The cream-coloured socks were a request from Emily, and will be added to her Christmas stocking in a few weeks. I can't believe that time is creeping up already! I thought I would still be knitting them at the last minute, but because they're made of a thicker wool they were a lot quicker to knit up than I anticipated.
I do enjoy knitting socks. I like using the double-pointed needles. I like that you can watch them forming completely before your eyes as you knit, with no fussy making-up to do afterwards. I've already started on this bright multi-coloured self-striping pair… this time for myself.
I am linking this post with Jenny from Thistlebear, who is hosting a Winter Project Link Party. Do pop along to her blog to see her beautiful rainbow of crochet butterflies, and maybe join in too.
A few hours spent knitting in the garden. Is there any better way to while away an afternoon? I've been making a pair of grey wrist-warmers. I used the exact same pattern last year in a pair for Emily which I gave to her for Christmas. I knew I'd have to make a pair for myself eventually.
The pattern is based on the Wrist Warmers with Picot Edge by Drops Design although I made them slightly longer and left a gap in the side for the thumb. I used Annell Rapido acrylic yarn, which is lovely and soft and doesn't have that slightly plastic feel of some acrylics.
So, I'm all set for the chillier days, or maybe I could do with a scarf as well? I have just got started on some knee-length socks – a request from Emily. But I would also like to crochet a blanket this winter. Decisions decisions – but the nicest possible kind.
While Emily was away at camp in the summer, I re-decorated her room as a surprise for her. Her walls have been candyfloss pink for several years, and her tastes have matured so I decided to go with a clean white… with a little inspiration from her Pinterest boards. It was hard work, but at the same time, I enjoyed dropping everything else and focusing on just this one thing.
So in the mornings and afternoons I painted walls, ceiling and trim with several coats of white, I put up new shelving for her growing book collection and painted those – (the shelves not the books, of course!). I painted her mirror, and bought a new lamp and a lightshade made of grey-white shell, put up extra hooks to hang schoolbags and clothes on and new voile curtains. And in the evenings I crocheted! You can see her favourite bedcover above has a geometric triangle design in white, greys and coral and I thought I would try to match that with a cushion to go in the corner.
I was pleased to find a pattern for just what I wanted to make on this website: Solstrikke. It took me almost the entire week to finish this pillow and I couldn't get the final row of overlapping crab stitch around the outside to look quite right so I left that out in the end. But overall I'm pleased with it. I learnt to crochet just last year, and this is the first time I have followed an actual 'proper' pattern. After that I got a bit carried away with the crochet and made a freehand new cover for her desk chair.
To finish it off, I strung a row of white fairy lights from bookshelf to window and voila – all finished! A very tired, but happy girl when she got back from camp, and a self-satisfied mum who needed a week to rest from all the exertion!
My last post was my 200th on this blog, and here I am still at it. In this post I wanted to write about a few of the things I've learned since beginning blogging three years ago. Three years and 200 posts isn't all that long and I am certainly no expert, but this list may help those who are just starting out. All these are still things I need to be reminded of when I feel unsure and stuck, which still happens a whole lot.
Commenting with grace on other people's blogs: This is how you build reciprocal relationships and find common interests. It is a wonderful way to find inspiration for your own posts. Only write positive comments. I say this because it is so easy to be misunderstood. Without the benefit of tone and facial features, comments can be taken to be more hostile than you intended. It is entirely possible to put across your differing point of view in a positive way without being rude and stirring up conflict. I admit to having been guilty of this in the past – we do so like to be right – don't we?
Commenting with grace on your own blog: If someone came up to you in every day life and praised your latest piece of writing, would you turn away and ignore them? Would you just smile and walk off? If you have a busy blog, it may not be possible to respond to every comment, but your readers will want to see that you have at least tried to make the effort. If you have few commenters, it would be wise to reply to them all. On the other hand, if someone makes a comment that upsets you or is downright rude, have no qualms about deleting it. If it is a comment that is merely annoying then feel free to ignore it. Responding in the heat of the moment can often leave you regretting your words… I speak from sore experience. Take a grace period and think about how best to deal with it.
Ignore your follower numbers: Just that!
Keep posting and confidence and topics will come easier with time: Over the years I have struggled to find that elusive 'focus' for my blog and have posted about all kinds of things. Maybe I will eventually settle onto just one topic, maybe not. What matters is to be brave and keep posting. Let your interests guide your way, and the way will become clearer as you progress.
Don't spread yourself too thin: You don't need every social media account to have a worthwhile blog. What matters is creating worthwhile content and interacting with your readers, so put those first. The more time you give to your life away from the Internet, the easier it will be for you to write interesting stuff on it.
Find your own way: There are a billion posts giving advice about blogging (just as this one is); take what you need and ignore the rest. Your unique approach to life and writing is what readers want to read. Don't compromise this for popularity. I've seen too many blogs change from personal and unique, to popular carbon copies of a thousand others. Yes, the blogs that write template posts with perfectly pin-able images will get more followers – but take a closer look at their comments section – is there real human interaction or a whole lot of attention seeking and advertising? What kind of interaction do you want on your blog?
Set a schedule: It doesn't have to be carved in stone, but a regular schedule of posting will help you immeasurably. If you make an intention to post once, twice, three times or more every week, and build it into a habit, you will find that your brain works unconsciously to find material to post about.
Don't make blogging harder or more important than it is: RELAX! (ha, need to tell myself this every day) Life is full of uncertainty. I am most wary of those blogs where everything seems to be worked out, where the writer is an 'expert'. We all know that life is not like that. Life changes direction in an instant, some days we are wobbly and unsure, some days we think we are on top of it all. Both are valid. So my favourite blogs are full of both… a little wisdom, a little uncertainty, a little imagination, a lot of real.
It is not necessary to criticise the way other people do things: Whether that be the way they live or what they write, even if you strongly disagree. This is a personal preference. I want to read blogs where we help each other not tear each other down.
"The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new." ~ Socrates.
We all have our flaws; a single ill-thought comment could destroy a person's confidence forever.
You don't have to share everything: I recently read an article about sharing opinions. Just because you didn't post about the latest news headline doesn't mean you don't care and doesn't mean you haven't taken action behind the scenes. Everyone is making a contribution in their own way though it may not be visible online. Lamenting the fact that you are the only person that seems to care about this, that, or the other, is narcissism. You can't see inside people's hearts, or know what they do away from their computer screen.
Maybe we can try to think the best of others and still share what we believe and how we like to do things on our blogs. As a caveat, I do think it is important to share at least some personal details, otherwise there is a feeling that the writer is hiding something and we may distrust them. As a reader we can understand a writer not wanting to talk at length about their children or very personal subjects, but a balance is important. We can share just a small portion of our lives here on the Internet and that is okay.
Connecting with the everyday: For a long while I wondered what it is that brings me back to a blog. There are several that I have read for years, and some I have read a little and left and later returned. Asking the question of what most attracts us to a blog will help us find our way to our own blogging style. I read blogs about all kinds of things – nature, gardening, art, craft, writing, knitting, daily life, cooking, books. I love writers who share titbits of their own personal life – their unique perspective of the world shines through their writing. I love to read about bloggers who are making a difference without pretending to be an expert or criticising the failings of others. These people inspire me to live a deeper more creative life and find a small way to make a difference myself. It has nothing to do with 'niche' or professional looking photographs. Though the way a blog looks is important, more than anything, it is authenticity that counts.
These are just my personal findings – your experience may be completely different. For me, blogging is a continual process of discovery – of how I understand myself and the world around me. It is an ongoing process, and it is fascinating to look back and see how much you learn and grow over the years. I am sure I will learn so much more in the years to come. I would love to know what you have learned about blogging, and what you personally look for in a blog?
When I look out of my bedroom window, I can see over several gardens and this week my eyes are drawn to the flash of scarlet poppies beside the greenhouse in my neighbour's garden.
A host of them gathered together, heads bobbing and swaying, graceful petals fluttering in the high winds. I wonder how they stay upright, as their stems do not look strong enough to bear the weight of the bashing they received from the gales.
The rain poured so I stayed inside listening to Chris Evan's radio show on the Internet and painted three watercolour poppies.
Enjoy your weekend! x
One of my goals for 2015 was to learn to crochet. Although I've been knitting for years, crochet is one of those things that I've just never been able to get my head around. I searched online and in books to find the best way to learn and discovered an excellent free crochet course on craftyminx's blog. Dana Beach is the crochet expert extraordinaire who kindly created it.
It really couldn't be any better. If you click on the picture above, it will take you to the table of contents, and as you can see she leaves no crochet stone unturned. I am in awe of her ability to explain and demonstrate tricky stitches and concepts to total beginners. I went from knowing absolutely nothing about crochet a few weeks ago, to now being able to attempt patterns (while occasionally referring back to her guidelines).
Dana takes you through the most common stitches with videos that clearly show the method. She gives tutorials on the basics, crocheting a round, making a granny square and a lesson which takes you through a pattern to make a pair of wrist warmers.
As you can see some of my first attempts are a bit wonky, but I'm sure with practice I'll improve.
If you think crochet might be a craft you'd like to learn, here are a few of my favourite crochet blogs for inspiration.
You'll soon be hooked 😉
The tulips make me want to paint,
Something about the way they drop
Their petals on the tabletop
And do not wilt so much as faint,
Something about their burnt-out hearts,
Something about their pallid stems
Wearing decay like diadems,
Parading finishes like starts,
Something about the way they twist
As if to catch the last applause,
And drink the moment through long straws,
And how, tomorrow, they'll be missed.
The way they're somehow getting clearer,
The tulips make me want to see—
The tulips make the other me
(The backwards one who's in the mirror,
The one who can't tell left from right),
Glance now over the wrong shoulder
To watch them get a little older
And give themselves up to the light.
~ A. E. Stallings
I painted some abstract tulips and found this sweet poem by A.E. Stallings to brighten this grey spring day. 🙂

Great quality, weird fit

The fabric is excellent on these, slight stretch, durable, and breathable. Not sure why they're so tight on the thighs and loose at the ankles. They don't actually get caught on the chain ring, but they have a nice coating of oil at the end of a ride from rubbing the chain each revolution.

SPIRITUAL FORMATION: Devotion is Possible in Every Walk of Live by Francis de Sales
From An Introduction to the Devout Life
At creation God commanded plants to bear fruit, each according to its kind. (Genesis 1:11-12) In the same way, he commanded Christians, who are the living plants of his church (John 15:5), to produce fruits of devotion, each according to ability and state in life.
It must be obvious that devotion ought to be practiced differently by the gentleman, the artist, the employee, the prince, the widow, the celibate, the spouse.
That is not all. Each person ought to adapt the practice of devotion to his or her strength, duties of state and particular obligations.
Do you think, Philothea, that it would be appropriate for a bishop to want to live in solitude like a Carthusian, or for married people to practice the poverty of Capuchins, or for the worker and the craftsman to spend their days in church like religious, or for religious to be constantly occupied with temporal affairs? Would that not result in a devotion which is really nonsense and altogether useless?
And yet this travesty exists. The world simply does not recognize, or wish to recognize, the difference between true devotion and the lack of discernment in those who think themselves devout. Therefore, it murmurs and criticizes the devotion which, in fact, is nowhere to be found in these kinds of nonsense.
No, Philothea, devotion spoils nothing when it is true. Quite the contrary, it perfects everything. When it proves incompatible with one's legitimate vocation this is simply because it is a false devotion. Bees draw honey from flowers without harming them, leaving them as fresh and as intact as before. True devotion does even better: not only does it not spoil a vocation or one's legitimate duties, but it actually enhances them. Care for one's family is more peaceful, love between spouses is more sincere, service to the state is more faithful; all occupations are more agreeable.
Be certain of this: It is an error, a heresy even, to want to banish the devout life from the company of soldiers, the shops of artisans, the courts of princes, and the homes of married people.
It is true, Philothea, that a devotion that is purely contemplative, monastic, or religious cannot be practiced in these circumstances. But there are other ways for those who live in the midst of the world to become perfect. Is that not what Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, Sarah, Rebecca, and Judith did in the Old Testament? And in the New Testament did not Saint Joseph, Saint Crispin, and Saint Lydia (Acts 16:14-15, 40) become perfectly devout in their shops? Saint Anne, Saint Martha (Luke 10:38-41; John 11:1-39, 12:2) and Saint Monica did so in their homes, did they not? Were not Saint Sebastian and Saint Maurice soldiers? Were not Constantine, Saint Helen, Saint Louis, and Saint Edward perfectly devout as monarchs?
Some people actually lose perfection in solitude, which is generally a favorable climate for perfection; whereas others become perfect in the very midst of the world. No matter where we are, Philothea, we must aspire to a perfect life.

Attorneys, social workers, ex-cons and former addicts advocated at the Suffolk County Legislature last Wednesday for passage of the "Second Chance" law, which would eliminate a box on job applications that asks about criminal history. READ
Al Krupski is running for re-election to his seat on the Suffolk County Legislature. He is essentially running for his third term unopposed, even though former Riverhead Town GOP chairman Remy Bell is a placeholder on the ballot.
A popular incumbent who won each of his first two terms in office with more than two-thirds of the vote, Suffolk County Legislator Al Krupski is facing his easiest campaign yet.
Election Day was supposed to be a major opportunity for Suffolk Republicans, with three seats in the Legislature and the county executive's office up for grabs.
Instead it was the Suffolk Democrats who walked away smiling, victors in the race for County Executive and still in control of the Legislature.
"Tonight, the voters of Suffolk County have given us a huge victory," said Suffolk County Executive-elect Steve Bellone.
Mr. Bellone posted a double-digit win over his Republican opponent, Angie Carpenter, in the race to succeed Suffolk County Executive Steve Levy. The Babylon Town Supervisor secured 130,000 more votes than his opponent, taking in 56 percent of the vote.
A Democrat has now won the county's highest office three straight elections, but Democrats were doing everything they could Tuesday night to distance themselves from Mr. Levy, who surrendered $4 million in campaign cash and didn't seek reelection after prosecutors made inquiries into his fundraising practices.
The County Executive had changed his party affiliation to Republican in 2010 with hopes of making a run at the Governor's mansion. In their election night speeches, county Democrats painted Mr. Levy in an unfavorable light.
"We're going to have a County Executive we can be proud of," Suffolk Democratic chairman Rich Schaffer said of Mr. Bellone. "We're going to have a Steve that works well with other people."
Mr. Bellone said he hopes to open Suffolk County government up to the people.
"We made an effort to reach out because of what happened over the past eight years," said Mr. Bellone, speaking at the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Hall in Hauppauge. "We're going to be a county that brings people together."
Meanwhile, not far down the road at the Sheraton Long Island Hotel in Hauppauge, Republicans were singing a similar tune. Suffolk GOP chairman John Jay LaValle called Mr. Bellone a "good man" with a difficult challenge ahead.[nggallery id=224 template=galleryview]
Ms. Carpenter, who will continue to serve as County Treasurer, conceded shortly before midnight, when she urged all elected officials in Suffolk County to work together.
"We have some real challenges ahead of us, and as disappointed as we might be, we have to pull ourselves up by the boot straps," she said to a crowd of Republican supporters. "We have got to pull together, because it's not going to be done by one person alone."
One man who will join in that effort is North Fork Legislator Ed Romaine, a Republican who won his bid for reelection with 78 percent of the vote against a Democratic opponent who ran a lackluster campaign.
Mr. Romaine and fellow Legislator Jay Schneiderman, an Independent with Democratic backing, will continue to represent the East End for two more years.
Preliminary results from the Suffolk County Board of Elections show Democrats likely won all three open seats to maintain a 12-6 majority in the Legislature.
Mr. Romaine said Tuesday night that he will continue to do everything he can for the people of the East End, even if Democrats still control the majority.
"I'm the only voice for the first district, and I need to be a strong voice," he said.
Jennifer Gustavson and Samantha Brix contributed reporting to this story.

Sometime ago, I started watching a certain preacher on Christian television. I eagerly watched him for a few weeks only to find myself spiraling into selfishness and discontentment because according to him God wants me to have a bigger house,fancy car (Ferrari) and promotion in my field of employment. And the great thing about it was the only thing I needed to do to get those things was have faith!
So, I tried to work up more faith but during the process, I began despising my current house, car and form of employment. Even my mate was looking questionable!
Realizing my thoughts were not corresponding with scripture, I asked God to help me and He gave me the answer. He said through another television preacher beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees (Matthew 16:6), that is false teaching because it causes one to become puffed up.
I had become puffed up. Overtaken by pride I began determining my current state in life was not good enough, I deserved more. I deserved better and I deserved it now!
Also during that time, a pastor I follow on Facebook said "stop hanging around people that can't do anything for you, people that can't help you reach your destination. You are a winner stop hanging around losers." As I meditated on his statement I thought about Romans 12:16, which says, "Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited." That's the NIV the KJV says, "Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, condescend to men of low estate."
How can I share the gospel or help others if I am told to stop hanging around people who can't do anything for me?
We must beware of the yeast of false teaching because it causes us to focus on houses, cars, starting businesses and buying real estate as a way to prove God's love and favor toward us.
Yes, God loves us and He proved his love for us by sending Jesus to die on the cross for us.
For some of us that's the only sign we will receive in this life. Jesus said a wicked and adulterous generation will look for signs.
This message is not to condemn any pastor or ministry as I cannot determine the heart of a man or his ministry I cannot determine if his or her teaching is based on inadvertent error or if it is done with malice. I just pray that all who proclaim to be messengers of Jesus Christ will love, seek and speak the truth. God's word is truth.
I pray for lay members to seek the truth and to turn away from all false teaching. The life and health of the church depends on both.
William Tyndale noted that "yeast slowly transforms a large lump of dough." He said, "Leaven speaks of a penetration that is slow, insidious and constant."
False teaching has slowly and insidiously transformed the church. The people worship God with their lips but their hearts are far from Him. Their lips proclaim love for Yahweh but their hearts, minds and actions prove they are seeking, serving and trusting Mammon.
Jesus said we can't serve two masters. We can't serve God and Mammon. Scholars note that in Matthew 6:24, Jesus focusing on the real source or battle for our hearts did not say you can't serve God and Satan. He said we can't serve God and Mammon!
It appears that Satan the god of this world sits as Mammon on the throne in many churches as believers are taught to seek him instead of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
Let's close with 1 Timothy 6:5-9:
It reads "Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself."
1Timothy 6:6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.
1Timothy 6:7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.
1Timothy 6:8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.
1Timothy 6:9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
Famed Commentator John Gill says, of our text:
Supposing that gain is godliness; such were Simon Magus and his followers, and other false teachers, who made merchandise of men, looked everyone for his gain from his quarter, and acted as if there was nothing in religion but worldly profit and gain; these served themselves, their own bellies, and selfish interests, and not the Lord Jesus Christ. Wherefore the apostle gives the following advice to Timothy, and through him to all ministers and churches, from such withdraw thyself: do not come near them; have nothing to do with them; do not lay hands on them, or admit them into the ministry; do not suffer them to preach, or encourage them by hearing them: if in the church, cast them out; have communion with them, neither in a civil nor in a religious way; avoid all conversation with them.
Choose whom you will serve. Will you serve God or Mammon?

Chris Conley
Author and Airbnb Strategic Advisor for Hospitality and Leadership
Webinar Date: October 4, 2018 @ 11:00am ET
Title: Catalyzing the Wisdom of the Modern Elder in Your Company
Repurpose your lifetime of experience to evolve, stay relevant, and thrive in midlife.
Webinar Description:
In a world that venerates the new, bright, and shiny, older employees may feel invisible, undervalued, and threatened by the younger "digital natives" at work. However, Chip Conley, author of Wisdom@Work: The Making of a Modern Elder, believes that experience is making a comeback. Companies are waking up to the invaluable skills mid-career workers possess: humility, emotional intelligence (EQ) and wisdom. While digital intelligence (DQ) is highly prized in the modern workplace, it has a shorter shelf life than EQ, which never expires.
Join us as Chip ignites an urgent conversation about ageism in the workplace, calling on companies to treat age as they would any other diversity, and liberating the term "elder" from the stigma of "elderly," inspiring organizations to reconsider an experienced workforce that is growing whole, not old. Chip is Airbnb's Strategic Advisor for Hospitality and Leadership and the founder of the Modern Elder Academy.

North Liverpool Company Secures Council Contract Thanks to Chamber Support February 10, 2009Posted by liverpoolchamber in Stepclever.
Thanks to support from Stepclever, Acorn Contract Services were able to secure a £1.12m contract which will see it able to grow its business and obtain bigger contracts in future.
The Kirkdale based grounds maintenance company were able to bid for the contract thanks to a grant from Stepclever. Acorn, who specialise in soft landscaping, civil engineering and road surface works, also managed to secure a further grant from Stepclever, enabling them to purchase new machinery.
The company will now be working to restore the garden boundaries of around 900 homes in the Liverpool 7 area. The work, being undertaken as part of the GEARS project, includes the refurbishment of fencing, walls, steps and gates for houses in Kensington. The project is named as an acronym of the streets in Kensington where the project is taking place, centred around Garthowen Street and Edge Lane.
Managing Director Julie Cunningham said:
"The support from Stepclever has been fantastic; it has enabled us to bid for a major project that bigger contractors usually secure. We have been able to safeguard jobs and have also managed to create 10 new jobs for this project too. The work we are doing now will help us to secure more work in future and will show others that we are able to take on important contracts."
Having established Acorn Contract Services around 10 years ago, Julie has seen her company go from strength to strength. Today, Acorn is a family run business which employs around 30 full time workers and also takes on additional staff for different projects.
The company will be sourcing its requirements for the contract from the same Kirkdale regeneration area they are based in, giving an example of how regeneration areas can aid a number of companies. Acorn Contract Services will be using Spotmix for waste and recycling and ABC for concrete. They will also be using Beers Timber and Builders Merchants, a materials supplier from the Vauxhall area. The project is to be completed by the end of March 2009.
The Stepclever project from which Acorn Contract Services benefited offers knowledge and support to companies based in the wards of Anfield, Everton, County, Kirkdale, Linacre and Derby who wish to tender for both public and private sector contracts.

Santa Barbara Kennel Club Show
The Santa Barbara Kennel Club Dog Show is one of the USA's oldest dog shows. So during the last weekend of August I flew into Los Angelas, CA (LAX) Airport and was greeted by my good friend and fellow BC enthusiast Christy Hittner, her gentleman of a son Mathew, and hubby Brett! We promptly drove to the show 3 hrs away to setup the Bellaclan/Shepstone camp outside underneath the Palm Trees...what a treat! We proceeded to go home to prep our dogs to show...well into the night...this seems to be the norm for me. LOL
The real treat was being surrounded by an amazing, supportive and sweet group of fellow Border Collie fanciers. Everyone showed so much love to each other...so no matter what followed, my heart was full! Between grooming and much laughter I got to cheer friends to their wins and of course celebrate our own wins too!
Christy was so generous to share Isla with me. She is the result of Dime bred to Harlan. Out of the Bred-By Class, me me having the pleasure of being on the end of her leash, Isla went WB on Sunday and WB/BOW on Monday!!
Shepstone Saltwater Heart "Isla"

WarCry: You have said that at any point in your career you can clone yourself to make a new character that will not have to start at the beginning again. Does this mean that if I am a level 50 Spy, and want to try a soldier, I can simply make a level 50 soldier?April Burba: No. If you clone a L50 Spy, you have another L50 Spy. The best times to clone are right before making a career choice. That way you can pick one career with one clone and another with your original character. You only have to go back as far as your last career choice this way.For the rest of the interview, go to here.

Meet Olivia Falcon, the beauty expert who will pair you with the perfect cosmetic surgeon
Last June I made the decision that I wanted to get my neck surgically lifted. The problem was, I had no idea where to start looking for the right person for the job. Although I worked as an editor at Vogue for 25 years and like to think I know about everything that matters – my phone is always ringing with people wanting to know where to find the best of things from haircuts to handbags – I am no expert on cosmetic surgeons.
So I called my friend Olivia Falcon, who spent 12 years editing the Tatler cosmetic surgery supplement and knows everything worth knowing about not only the best surgeons but also the most up-to-date treatments. She spends at least two days a week personally road-testing...
