Phnom Penh is the bustling capital of Cambodia. It was once a gem but was tarnished by the impact of war and revolution. The city still maintains considerable charm with so much to see, from it's Angkorian architecture and palaces to their amazing boulevards and more.
We visited all spots which were previously used as jails and killing areas like the Toul Sleng Genocide Museum, the Choeng Ek Killing Fields and until now, I could still remember how most of these gave me goosebumps and took me back to the era of darkness and wars. I can't help but feel sad for the victims of the past.
Yes, It may be dark but nevertheless, it was still an amazing experience for being able to see and experience their history and culture. I still recommend to come and see Phnom Penh now as it won't be the same in the next few years.
Phnom Pehn is just 6 hours away from Siem Reap by land via bus. In Siem Reap, most buses arrive and depart from the Chong Kov Sou bus station near Phsar Leu, 7km from town center and you can just take a tuktuk to the Terminal to purchase a ticket. Be sure to do it first thing upon arrival in Siem Reap to make sure that you have a slot.
There are different kinds of buses available to choose from but we took the Olympic Express Limousine sleeper night bus which has one stop and socket is also provided in each bed for charging purposes. It was very comfortable! Plus they offer a free shower/comfort room where we were able to change our clothes and wash up before we left, and they also provide a free charging station and a free wifi. Amazing! It really saved us!
Bus Departure times to Phnom Penh are: 06:00, 07:00, 07:30, 08:00, 08:30, 09:00, 12;45, 13:00, 14:00, 23:30, 24:00. Until now, the bus to Phnom Penh needs 6 hours, including one or two breaks.
The best place to stay in Phnom Pehn is the Pub Street where the backpackers usually stay. Here, you could find a lot of cheap hostels and some offers free breakfast. Plus it's near resto's and some of the tourist spots.
We stayed in Golden Home Guesthouse which we got for only $20 good for 4 pax. The room is located in the second floor, it's airconditioned, spacious, with private comfort room and with TV. They also have a resto where you can eat.
Just like in Siem Reap, Phnom Pehn also uses Tuktuk as their major transportation. You may bargain for a whole day tour which we also did and that cost us $15 for 4 pax.
Most of their tourist spots will show you their history and culture. I suggest to visit them all to fully understand everything about the city. I am very sure that you will have goosebumps as well. But don't get me wrong, I don't mean that all of the spots are the same, they also have their iconic temples, museums and palaces which you will surely love!
Since some of the spots displays confidential pictures and details, so you won't be allowed to take photos and videos inside. That's why I won't be able to show you how it looks like.
1.Royal Palace Throne Hall/Silver Pagoda (Entrance fee $10)
2.National Museum (Entrance Fee $5)
3.Wat Lanka Temple , Independence Monument (Free entrance)
4.Riverfront Park or Russian Market to buy souvenirs ( Open 7AM-5PM)
5.Wat ouk na Lorm Temple (Free Entrance)
6.Wat Phnom with entrance fee, Elephant rides available $3
7.Toul Sleng Genocide Museum, (Entrance fee $3 but $6 if with stereo) (Pictures and videos not allowed)
8.Killing fields-Choeung Ek (1 hour away from Toul Sleng Museum) , with entrance fee $3 (Pictures and videos not allowed)
We had lunch in Natalie Restaurant which is just few walk away from Toul Sleng Museum. I love this resto! They offer varieties of cambodian dishes and everything that we ordered tastes delicious.
Transportation – PHP 875 Hotel – PHP 250 Tickets/Entrance Fees – PHP 650 Food – PHP 362.50 Total = PHP 2,137.50
Here's my itinerary to guide you well.
I hope you find it colorful and helpful. If yes, please do not forget to like and share. And If you have any questions, just leave a comment and I will do my best to answer it.

I'm sure you've all heard somebody say "I'll take care of that when I get around to it." Sound familiar?
Well, that excuse is terminated because here it is, your very own "round tuit."
No more excuses from your spouses or significant others, or you for that matter. When you hear them beginning to procrastinate, just hand them a copy of the image to the left.
Sorry buster, here's your round tuit, so get moving.
This is a very powerful weapon to fight procrastination, use it wisely.
Oh, one more thing. It doesn't work when any NFL football game is on, regardless of time zone. Sorry!

I received the following disheartening alert out of Maine today, see below:
If yesterday's MLI committee decision stands, Maine adults will have to wait another five years until they can enjoy the same privileges afforded to those who consume alcohol.
This decision was made with LESS THAN HALF of the MLI committee's members present. The decision encourages tourists and otherwise law-abiding adults to break the law and consume marijuana in public.
Click here now to tell the MLI committee no more social club delays
Meanwhile, in Massachusetts, adults will be trusted enough to consume marijuana socially as soon as this summer. We can't lag behind other states in New England; please message the committee today.
Warm regards,

What The Hell is Going On???March 9, 2011
Okay, so I usually like to title my post with some sort of clever word play/pop culture reference that I then seamlessly (seamlessly, I say!) tie thematically to my larger post. But this time I have to admit that this time I was largely at a loss.
Why, you ask? The answer is simple:
I have no idea what is going on in this book.
The closest I could come up with was some close approximation of "Lucy, you've got some explaining to do!" from I Love Lucy, but then I thought I would have to find some way to equate Vilette (is that the name of the main character?) and Polly/Pauline/Missy (how many names does she have, by the way?) with Lucy and Ethel.
And since I don't even know the name of one character, and I can't keep the number of names the other character has straight, this just seemed like too much of a challenge.
Oh, vitameatavegamin!
It also just occurred to me that I Love Lucy may not be exactly the most cutting edge pop culture reference.
Next time, perhaps I will have something more cogent to say, and maybe I will know what the hell is going on.

इस वक़्त का क्या है,
ये तो यूँ ही चलता रहेगा,
लम्हे, पहरों में और पहर दिनों बदल जायेंगे,
ये उम्र भले ही ना थमे पर आफ़सने थम जायेंगे।
इस वक़्त का क्या है,
ये तो यूँ ही चलता रहेगा,
लम्हे, पहरों में और पहर दिनों बदल जायेंगे,
ये उम्र भले ही ना थमे पर आफ़सने थम जायेंगे।
काश कुछ ऐसा हो जाए
ये वक्त चलता रहे,
ये लम्हे चलते रहें,
ये पहर चलता रहे,
बस मेरी उम्र थम जाए।
मैं समेट लूँ सारी यादें,
मैं सहेज लूँ सारे पलों को,
देख लूँ जी भर के
उन आँखों को,
इस दुनिया में जिनसे सबसे पहले रूबरू हुआ।
मैं थाम लूँ उस ऊंगली को
जो कभी मुझे थामे चली थी।
वो खिलखिलाती हँसी
जो कभी मेरे साथ खेली थी।
बस इतनी सी ही तो ख्वाहिश है,
बे-वक्त के इस मुसाफिर की।
छोटी सी राह का जिसका
बस तीसरा हिस्सा है बाकी।।
आकर क़रीब अपनों के और थोड़ा,
कुछ और अच्छा कर जाऊँ।
छोटे से इस सफर के
सुकून भरे पलों को
यादों में पिरो जाऊँ।
या फिर
रहकर दूर उनसे,
ग़म के बवन्डर से बचाने को उनको,
बेरूखी वाला मुखौटा ओढ़ जाऊँ।।
रहगुज़र हूँ तेरा,
कि तूने जो भी दिया
झोली भर के दिया।
रहगुज़र हूँ तेरा,
कि दिये हुए हौसले से तेरे
अपने दम पर कुछ किया।
रहगुज़र हूँ तेरा,
कि कई ख्वाबों को अपने
मैंने हकी़कत में जिया।
रहगुज़र हूँ तेरा,
कि जरा से वक्त में ही
तेरे होने को समझ लिया।
ईबादतग़ार हूँ तेरा
शिकायतग़ार नहीं,
कि अलग बनाकर भी तूने
खास बना दिया।। — रूह
This poem is the best gift i have ever received from someone. someone whom i have grown to adore and respect not only for the fitful exuberance but also for the Indefatigable deftness in distilling soulful and picturesque emotion by the infallible sagacity in choice of words that eloquently succour the baroque and beguiling poems.
Thanks M ,
By the way this only of the poems from M rest assured 100's more to come…..
Do you think, such a thing really exists? Some people say they have seen or touched it but I think its all smoke no fire. I mean, just honestly have you ever seen this elusive beast yourself. No! you have only heard myths about it never facts.
I think it's one of the most coveted secret guarded closely by oligarch of the puppeteer that people over millennia have called God. Just think about it if this secret were ever to come out will his kingdom survive. After all, he thrives off the prayers generated out of misery, not on the thanks from satisfaction. If someone says he's satisfied I recommend to get as far as possible from that person. Believe you me that person will eventually ask you to donate all your worldly possession to him so that you can also have stratification. It's just one of those terms created by society to provide a false sense of security or something to keep you shackled to the pursuit of an equally ridiculous concept called money.
It's like one of those rare gems, surely to cause pillage on its way. It is like a sorcerer, always seeking ways to torture or chain you up. If you want to get out of its wretched grip, then you gotta be a rebellion. Once you give into its devotion, its detrimental dysfunction, slowing rushing you to destruction, you are liable to get alienated. Because face it society is a two faced bitch. No matter how much it raves for satisfaction. It likes no one who is satisfied. They won't hesitate to shut you out, with no recourse at all. But to some extent, their anxiety is rightly pointed. It's a fact satisfaction eventually lead to clogging of progress.
If you are satisfied with what you have, then what's the need to innovate, deliberate or create. I would say satisfaction is and will always remain biased or a salve to the fabric of time. You may say, satisfaction is having the most exotic lunch box as a child, satisfaction is kissing your love as a teenager, satisfaction is buying a new car as a man or satisfaction is being with family when you grow old. I believe one should always stride towards success not for satisfaction but for gratification or just the thrills of it. The World may brand success as addictive but its a good addiction not like the necromancer that satisfaction is.
You are nobody the world doesn't give a rats ass about your existence. A speck of dust that will be brushed off from history in seconds. All the accomplishments of the lifetime are nothing that the world has never seen or will not see, you are just a phase under passing. Your existence is not essential for the world you are just a probability that happened or may be a conspiracy that physics played to provide entropy to the universe, either way, you are just a random consequence on a cosmic scale.
You may think of yourself to be the smartest but be aware you have not seen the real world out there. No amount of fame or convection will titillate the world or history so that they remember you; history is too quick to judge and too old to bother, you are merely a blimp on time. In fact, for all practical purposes, you don't exist for this world. You may be a maverick or plane old dogmatic theists but the cogs of time will grind you like a pebble to dust. You must bow to this babbling brook of time and surrender to this reality, the sooner you realise how insignificant you are to the cosmos and how time is a ruthless tyrant, the faster you learn how to assimilate into this breakout black hole.
Remember If Prometheus betrayed titans to help your kind only to be damned for eternity, to be devoured for aeons he must have seen something that made him steal the most coveted power and relinquish it to the feeble mankind. If he could see it then surely you can see or seek it now. Don't be discontent with this world, it's as fair to you as it is to the others. Complaining about it will not help you persevere your deeds, you must approach them head on like a Mongol under khan. The perpetual motion of this world will not halt to accommodate you, it's you who have to hop on to this hurdling spaceship in the ocean of time. If you fall behind you are bound to get crushed under it. No amount of motivation will be incentive enough unless it's you who want to do it. Success is and has always been elusive, but as long as you don't garner the courage to propose to it. You must let go of the unnecessary baggages and pseudo sense of control on life. This control is temporal and baggages are just dragging you to the abyss.
As quantum mechanics dictates if you close your eyes the world must cease to exist because its act of observation that brings the true nature of matter as well as reality. In fact, the entirety of the universe is just a probability so it doesn't matter if you yourself are a probability. Once you learn to see this universe as merely an illusion or may be a simulation brought to inception by your act of observing it.
You will realise the true superpower nature has endowed you with. The emptiness of space as well slumber of the world is and has always been uncomfortable, inhospitable and cruel not only to you but to the entirety of the universe. Never blame circumstances they are just bitter realities that we have created in order to justify our cowardliness. You must learn to break out of the vicious circle; It has always been you and yourself against the world. No one is interested in your failures but everyone one will always want a piece of cake from your engagement party to success. Sooner you realise that It's always has been you who is responsible for all the ups and downs of your life faster you will fathom the reality of never looking up to the world for pity.
Just engrave this in your book of life: You are you and nobody should be able to deny that or take away it from you. This world is and will always we against you but never let that delineate you from the goals and unadulterated love for success. If you want something with enough sedition and dedication there no force powerful enough that will take that away from you.
It's the end that will weigh on you till you break. An ultimatum that constantly pester on your free will. The most powerful agent of time that hunts you like the hounds of Hades; always bloodthirsty and out there to shatter hopes, willpower and aspirations. A behemoth ever hungry that is satisfied only with sorrows. A baron of unfulfilled desires trading only on misery. It is like a time pirate lurking in calmness of progress to plunder life and exuberance making you bankrupt of time, always waiting for that one mistake so you fall into its trap. The moment you surrender to its whim you will never be able to taste success.
If you look into failure's eye with perseverance and conviction it will definitely bow down to your will and confidence. Then you are in game, you have it under your whip. In fact failure a hurdle till you consider its as one; sooner you realise this faster it metamorphoses to a stepping stone paving the path to success. There's a yin-yang symbiosis between them , to achieve success you must acknowledge failure. In fact success doesn't tastes like one if you achieve it without failure. Failure is the rite of passage, a fundamental force that that drives the intricate mechanics of life, an ally! always loyal to you. An inspiration constantly fuelling your inner aura, a prospect with high risks but higher rewards. A success without failure is seldom respected and almost always deemed as luck. So make it you best friend and never blame it for what you have not achieved but embrace if for what it taught you and then it will always lead you to success.

The biggest challenge in starting therapy was finding a therapist who understood me as a person, I've started therapy many times before and they have always broken down very quickly, until I was introduced to Woodbine Therapy.
Alison is a very kind person who has worked with me over a period of time to help me deal with anxiety and my family relationships. She offered not only a listening ear, but amazing therapy techniques (two chair work) and coping strategies when out in society.
I will always be extremely grateful to Alison for everything she has done for me and would highly recommend the service she offers to others in the future.

text: A gaudy second installment of memoirs. Collins (Past Imperfect, 1984) is a survivor. For almost 50 years, she has cobbled together a career in mass-market culture- -including TV shows, pulp fiction, and scores of mostly forgettable movies--happily sporting the doe eyes, pancake makeup, and slash of red lipstick they taught her to wear at Fox, where she went to work for Darryl Zanuck in the '50s. Among the events she recollects here are: being touted as a ``vestpocket Ava Gardner''; being picketed by an estranged husband with a sign reading, ``Joan, you have our $2.5 million, 13,000 sq. ft. home. . . . I am now homeless. Help!''; and chatting with Jayne Mansfield, who made small talk as a makeup man shaved her pubic hair into a heart shape. She's had four husbands, younger lovers, and was propositioned by Robert Kennedy (she heroically declined). Though Collins philosophizes about this-and-that (``Fidelity seems to be a trait in short supply with most men, male `equipment' being able to rise to stimulating opportunities with alacrity''), there's not much introspection here. Of Peter Holm, her much publicized third husband, she says simply, ``His tyranny, dual personality and definite sociopathic tendencies were making me feel as though I was playing Ingrid Bergman's role in Gaslight.'' But Collins matter-of-factly describes her life's challenges: Her daughter Katy was hit by a car and badly injured, and Collins spent years as her family's breadwinner, making quickie movies in order to pay the bills. She rarely complains, though like Dynasty's Alexis Carrington, she can be bitchy. Describing her former editor Joni Evans, who testified against Collins in her lawsuit against Random House: ``I was surprised by her raddled appearance and how much older she looked since last we'd met.'' In an earlier age, this would have been perfect reading for under the hairdryer. (photos, not seen) (TV satellite tour)

Primarily young, and increasingly less experienced, the seasonal silviculture workforce carries unique challenges regarding recruitment and retention of competent workers. With the majority of workers paid on a piece-work basis the workplace is strongly focused on production. These cultural features place a critical and immediate emphasis on the best selection, motivation, treatment and training of workers. Over the long term the industry needs to retain experienced career-oriented workers capable of managing workers and projects. To better understand the dynamics around labour in the sector the Western Silvicultural Contractors' Association entered into a three-year Labour Market Partnership agreement with government. Its purpose was to measure and make better sense of the silviculture workforce and recommend constructive human resource strategies. The BC Silviculture Workforce Initiative, which concluded in 2015, provided various reports and much of the logic, data, and analysis that now inform the industry's approach to improving human resource and workforce practices and planning.

Education Background: I am a self-taught jewelry designer, former brick and mortar retail business owner with many years in different aspects of the retail industry. I have some formal university education- but quickly found heavy class loads and structured studies were not for me haha!
1. Tell us a little about who you are.
I am a prairie girl, born and raised. I live in Saskatoon Sk, and grew up in Moose Jaw, Sk where my family still lives. I am a bit of a gypsy – free spirited and have never really lived life "by the book". I love creating, and finding inspiration in unexpected places. I need coffee in the morning to function, and I often work best late in the night. Give me a glass of wine, good music and great conversation and I am a happy girl. I love books, especially vintage books…quotes… words in general. I love to laugh and be around people, people are fascinating to me. I make decisions based on gut instinct and am open to trying new things – which is a fairly recent development, but it turns out a really fun one!
2. How did you find your passion for jewelry making?
I've always been creative, but could never really find that one thing that consistently inspired me to create. I owned a retail business at the time, and carried several jewelry lines in the shop. I literally just had the thought "I bet I could do this" – the next day I went out and bought a few basic supplies, started playing around and fell in love with designing jewelry! Shortly after, I found myself going through a very significant break up, and I found the need to keep busy fell into the need to create, in which I found inspiration and love for creating this little jewelry line.
3. Who are you most influenced by?
I am so fortunate to be surrounded by many amazingly talented and creative people. I'm lucky to count many strong, inventive and hard-working female business owners as friends -Inspiration and drive for myself comes out in droves from a simple get together for coffee with any of them. People who are out there doing what they love, and doing it whole heartedly are my kind of people. I have also worked in the retail fashion industry for a while, and I get so much inspiration from people with really great style- thank you Instagram! I've also "met" amazing people through Instagram and am continually inspired by them and what they are doing – so much hustle and creativity!
4. What was your first job and how long did you hold that position?
Ohhh, my first job…hmmm. I think it was at a coffee shop in my hometown (Moose Jaw, SK). I have worked at a few different coffee shops – there is something about that laid back coffee shop vibe, you always meet cool, interesting people there. It was during high school, I think I worked there about a year.
5. What inspired you to create your first pieces?
I work a little differently than some designers in the sense that I don't sketch out my designs before I make pieces. I literally just see it in my head and let my hands figure it out. Inspiration comes in the form of a gut feeling and need to create something, and that's how the first few pieces came to be. Curiosity, determination and the ability to let go of control and let it come naturally – I think that's where the inspiration came from at first. 6. What were your initial goals with your work? How have they evolved?
At first, I just wanted to be happy and feel proud of what I created. It was fun for me (it still is of course!), and a hobby that turned into a way to earn some extra money. I remember the feeling of awe I got – people actually wanted to pay me money for the pieces I made, and they wanted more?! I did a few Pop Up Shops, that branched into getting the line into retail shops in my city, and then into cities in other provinces, which led to my website launch last April. I would love to broaden my reach in the retail market, and increase the traffic and sales on my website.
7. What do you think is the most important life skill you learned from being an entrepreneur?
The ability to shake it off when things don't work out, step back and look at the situation from another angle and give it another try. I have learned many, many problem solving skills from being an entrepreneur. Sometimes you don't have the option to go to another person to help you figure it out, and you really learn what you are capable of in those moments. Determination and being open to learning are so important to being in business for your self.
8. Where do you hope to be in 5 years?
I love this question, because it forces me to focus a bit. I am a very "day to day", "let things happen as they happen type" of person, and I have been known to change my mind frequently (the creative in me perhaps?!). I do know this- I want to grow this little business of mine, slowly but surely. I want elizabeth.lyn to be a recognized name across the country, and to continue to find inspiration in travels and everyday life by connecting and building lasting relationships with interesting, creative and genuine people.
9. What is a typical day like for you?
Coffee. Times two. That's the first thing! I generally start by checking and responding to emails, then print out any new online orders and add then to my order queue. Depending on the items ordered, and how much back stock I have (pieces I have already made) I can process up to 15 online orders in a day including packing and shipping. Retail orders can take up to 3 days each, so I try to plan accordingly. I am always, always either listening to music or watching (listening really) Netflix while I work – I need background noise. I run and errand or two, and sometimes meet a friend for lunch (this happens more often in summer- patio season!), and stop by one or two of my local retailers to drop off/ pick up/ re merchandise etc. More coffee, a little social media browsing and supply orders sprinkled in during the day- and that takes me to the evening!
10. What was the biggest obstacle you faced so far in the process of pursuing your dreams?
Time management. It is not my strong suit…though I am working on it. I have had a few missed opportunities, some events I could have been better prepared for, and steps I could have taken had I had a better handle on managing my time.
11. What is the best piece of advice you have received?
If it doesn't feel right, don't force it. I believe in working from an authentic place, and working with people I have authentic relationships with. If something doesn't feel right to me, I can't put my best self into it, resulting in work I am not proud of or doesn't fit to me.
12. When you get your best ideas?
Always at the strangest moments. I'm constantly making notes in my phone, screen capping inspo shots I find online and snapping pics when I see things that draw me in. Oh, and always right before I fall asleep- never fails!
13. Can you share with us one time that you failed and what you learned from that failure?
I'm not sure if I would call this a failure, but it was definitely the most pivotal turning point in my life so far… I owned a business for three years, something that I always wanted to do. In the third year my marriage fell apart. I felt like my whole world was crashing down and I had no control over it. It took me a little while to realize that actually, I did. I took the time to do the work on myself that I hadn't been doing. I took the time to get to know me, and I realized I had lost a lot of myself. I learned a lot from that time in my life. I learned about control, and the beauty in letting go of it. I opened up my mind and let in the possibilities, the lessons, and the inspiration, and I grew – tenfold. I learned how to trust myself, how to go with my gut, and how to appreciate the way other people do things.
14. How do you unwind?
If you follow my Instagram, you know I like a glass of red wine now and then haha! Great conversations with my friends ( sometimes with red wine), hot baths, and good books are my go to's to decompress and recharge.
15. What would you tell someone else who wants to start their own business?
Go for it!!! It is the hardest, most rewarding thing I have done, and the lessons I've learned and people I have connected with as a result are amazing. Some days are not going to be easy, and you will shed a few tears- but the payoff is worth every one of those tears. I continue to grow, be inspired and take so much pride in how I've gotten where I am. Be open, genuine and willing to put in time, and all you need is a little bit of courage.
16. What do you hope people take away from your story?
Do your thing, whatever that is for you. Do it with a full heart and an open mind. Be willing to learn and grow and the possibilities are seriously endless. It took me a few different careers, a broken heart and a lot of soul searching to realize what my thing was – and that I loved it. Sometimes the best things in life come out of the unexpected. Isn't that kind of exciting?! 17. Anything we missed that you would like to share?

Daily carry these Bluetooth earbuds for just $18/
I don't always carry headphones in my pockets, but when I do, rest assured they're earbuds and they're wireless. Unfortunately, that combination usually costs a pretty penny -- upwards of $120.
Fortunately, today AUKEY's already affordable Latitude Wireless Headphones are even cheaper. No, they're not truly wireless earbuds (my personal favorite), but they do eight hours of battery life and aptX. They're also IPX4 certified and have strong enough magnets so the buds can cling to one another when draped around your neck.
That's a pretty fair trade-off for a mere $18. They usually sell for between $25. To take advantage of today's discount, which only works with the black color, use coupon code L6MWTC6C at checkout.

Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War is one of the most highly regarded real-time strategy titles in PC gaming, spanning two games with multiple expansions, the franchise is a treasure. However, since Relic Entertainment, the developers of Dawn of War, were sold to SEGA following the THQ bankruptcy, fans have worried that we may never see a return to the franchise.
This fear was somewhat averted by SEGA registering a domain for Dawn of War 3, and releasing new content for Dawn of War II: Retribution in the form of the Necron Overlord for the Last Stand game mode. However, today suspicions of a franchise revival are sure to return. On its official Twitter account and on the Dawn of War YouTube, SEGA put out a teaser, including a moving image and tomorrow's date. Detail-sparse teasers such as this are the current vogue, and tend to precede big announcements, so we can be fairly sure it isn't for a two-buck DLC.
Whatever the case, tune into SEGA's various social media accounts tomorrow for more news. Here's to hoping for a return of the Blood Ravens.

What You Will Do
What You Should Have
You Are Also:
A detailed doer – You have a track record of getting things done. You're organized and responsive. You take ownership of every idea you touch and execute it to a fine level of detail, setting targets, engaging others, and doing whatever it takes to get the job done. You can multi-task dozens of such projects at once and never lose sight of the details. Likely, you have some experience in a start-up or other rapid-growth company.
A creative problem-solver – Growing any business from scratch comes with massive and constant challenges. On top of that, Bridge works in often fragile, sometimes volatile low-resource communities and with complex government systems. You need to be flexible and ready to get everything done effectively, quickly, and affordably with the materials at hand.
A relentless advocate – The children we serve and teachers we empower never leave your mind. You know them, get them, have shared a meal with them (or would be happy to in the future). You would never shrink back from shaking a parent's hand or picking up a crying child, no matter what the person was wearing or looked like. Every decision you make considers their benefit, experience, and value.
A malleable learner – You believe you can always do better. You welcome constructive criticism and provide it freely to others. You know you only get better tomorrow when others point out where you've missed things or failed today.
A data-driven decision-maker – When making decisions, you don't rely your intuition alone. You collect data, you analyze it and make decisions with clear justifications.
A curious investigator – You ask why a lot. You don't just take what you see and accept it. You wonder why it is that way, and are aware that the world we see is created by human choices and actions – and it could be different. You wonder, and see the world as wonderful even when you want to change a part of it that is unjust.

I discovered on a quiz show the other day that the word "dog" appears to have come from nowhere and displaced the German word "hund".
Has any research revealed how it arrived in the English language?
The Wiktionary entry for "docga" suggests a possible origin in the root of a word originally meaning "power, strength, muscle" along with a diminutive suffix -ga.
It occurs to me that single-syllable words (or single syllables plus a suffix) can come about onomatopeoiacally. The root "dog"/"doc" doesn't necessarily have had to have come from "somewhere".
If the Wiktionary entry is correct that there is only one known attestation of "docga", it is striking that it became the word that eventually ousted "Hund" (as the generic word). On the other hand, I guess it's possible that "docga" was widely used, just not in the kinds of register that tended to be written down. (It's quite common for words to shift register over the years.)
I believe the etymology of dog is still unknown. The following is from Etymonline.com:
O.E. docga, a late, rare word used of a powerful breed of canine. It forced out O.E. hund (the general Germanic and IE word; see canine) by 16c. and subsequently was picked up in many continental languages (cf. Fr. dogue (16c.), Dan. dogge), but the origin remains one of the great mysteries of English etymology.
Thank you for your interest in this question.

California corrections officials are considering a request by former Charles Manson follower and convicted murderer Susan Atkins to be released from prison because of a terminal illness, it was reported today.
Atkins' request for "compassionate release" consideration was made last month after a doctor determined she had less than six months to live, Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation spokeswoman Terry Thornton said in remarks reported by the Los Angeles Times.
Citing medical confidentiality laws, Thornton said she could not disclose the nature of the illness. But sources close to the case told The Times that Atkins had suffered from brain cancer and had undergone amputation of one of her legs.
Atkins, 59, has been in state prison 37 years, longer than any other woman in California, according to Thornton. She is serving a life sentence with the possibility of parole.
Atkins and other members of Manson's cult were convicted of killing actress Sharon Tate and six other people during a rampage in the Los Angeles area in 1969. Tate, the wife of director Roman Polanski, was 8 1/2 months pregnant when she was killed at her hilltop home in Benedict Canyon. Atkins was also convicted of the earlier killing of music teacher Gary Hinman.
Her request for release has already been approved by the California Institution for Women in Corona, where she was housed from April 1971 until March, when she was transferred to a local hospital for treatment, The Times reported.
Officials at the Corona facility concluded that Atkins should be considered for release because of her failing health and because she no longer posed a risk to others, according to the newspaper.

"Because of Your Grace" featuring Harun Kotch from the album "The Season of Singing" recorded and produced by Ross Gill
I remember full well being concerned with the names I expected to be called when my friends found out that I had become a Christian. "Bible basher" and "Jesus freak" are two names that spring to mind. I certainly remember that being a Christian was not considered cool by the people I associated with. However to my surprise in turned out that there was no need for me to be concerned as I don't remember any name calling (well not to my face anyway) and if there was -so what?
Nevertheless in my blog I have often drawn attention to people who are generally regarded as cool and who are also Christians- for example Bear Grylls, Usain Bolt and Jürgen Klopp. Today I would like to highlight another -the Rugby Union player Mara Itoje.
Maro was born in England to Nigerian parents. He made his England Rugby Union debut in 2016 and his 12 caps have included two Six Nations titles – including a Grand Slam in 2016 – plus a 3-0 series whitewash of Australia down under last summer. He has just been selected for the British and Irish Lions Tour of New Zealand this summer. At 22 he will be the youngest tourist.
In a recent interview with the BBC Maro talked of his Christian faith. He said
I feel as if everything I have – everything I have been fortunate to have been given -and the position I am in is a result of God.
Everything I am doing is not through my power but is through God's power.
I am very fortunate and very happy that God has put me in this position. For me it is about giving the glory and the praise back to Him.
Maro is six foot five inches tall and weighs 18 stone and 4 pounds so I for one am not going to argue with him!!

Novartis AG on the Cusp of a Breakup
Novartis looks to be the next big pharma to face a breakup.

I wanted to do something a little different with the leftover turkey and parlay it into an appetizer for a progressive New Years Eve Party that didn't happen. But, hey, the empanadas were a hit in any event. This recipe seems daunting, but it really isn't. Just pop the turkey caracas in a slow cooker and make the dough and chimicurri sauce in advance and assemble the day of. Easy Peasy. Don't let making dough from scratch throw you. It is a lot easier than you might think it is. Because of insecurity, for years I relied on ready made pie crusts. The brand I relied on in the States was actually very good in the beginning but over the years the taste and quality diminished considerably and I have been forced to make my own pie crust. And, I am glad I have gotten over my fear of making dough because one cannot compare the taste and texture of homemade dough to that, which comes out of a box.

If you are a user of the Android phone, then the way of handling might be easy for the users when it comes to installing the applications or upgrading the OS on your device. It is also becoming one of the common activities that every Android user used to do often. Until installing the applications or Upgrading the OS like stuff, your device may perform better and run smoother as always. But when the process is done, your device will get started to work slow and sometimes get hanged as well.
Most of the Android users to make their device normal, they used to delete or uninstall some applications from their device to get free space. Unfortunately, it will work for some time and then turns ugly by grabbing more space again by leaving unwanted files on your Android device. This thing might take you to complicated stuff and makes you irritate for most of the time. For this purpose, most of the Android users have also changed their Android device to new devices. If you are facing the issue like this for a long time, then here we are bringing you the solution to sort it out in quick time.

Ofgem is introducing a new measure to ensure that half hourly supplies that exceed the assigned available capacity will pay significantly more. DCP 161 is a change to the DCUSA (Distribution Connection and Use of System Agreement) that will introduce Excess Capacity penalties for half hourly electricity supplies. The change is being introduced from 1st April 2018 to recover the additional costs that DNOs (Distribution Network Operators) can incur when customers exceed their available capacity levels.
At present, those who go over their allocated capacity are being charged at the same rate as what they have been contracted for their allocated capacity – meaning there has been no 'incentive' for the client to actively pursue with an increase. With DCP 161 this will now result in those who exceed their capacity will be penalised financially, unless they look at increasing it accordingly with the DNO. Luckily increasing capacity is something Orchard Energy's Utility Services department can look into! For more information, please call 0844 581 0844 requesting to speak to our Utility Services Department. Alternatively, existing customers can speak to their energy consultants directly about this.
DCP 161 means that from April 2018, users will be charged an excess penalty rate which could be over three times higher than the standard rate. The applicable rates have not yet been published and will vary by region and voltage. It is expected that in areas where demand for capacity is high the costs will reflect this. If a supply is regularly exceeding its assigned available capacity, this change could increase the overall electricity costs by up to 1-2% or more depending on the consumption profile.
Ofgem carried out a consultation on this back in 2014, they did originally want this to be implemented as of the 1st April 2016, however, with P272 currently being phased out it would have caused too many issues and not allowed those who would be moving onto the HH market enough time to 'sort it out'. This was deferred by Ofgem on the 21st October 2015 with a new proposed date of 1st April 2018.

I love looking at the sky.
To be able to look at the sky.
To remind me that I wake up another day.
To know that I am still breathing.
Until the last day of my life.
So I would like to think like this…
The Hue of the skies
is the Hue of me.

From Pouts to Puckers
Told in rhyme this book tells the story of a very sad fish, the pout pout fish. All of his friends wish that he would not be so gloomy but the pout pout fish is convinced that he is destined to be sad and grumpy because his mouth forms a pout. One day a new fish swims right up to the pout pout fish and kisses him. The pout pout fish is stunned but after a moment he realizes that he is not a pout pout fish but a kiss kiss fish. From then on he spreads happiness wherever he goes.
I am torn about what to think about this book. I like the rhyming pattern that the book follows and the portions that are repeated. Both of those things are great for children who are learning to read. I also like the illustrations. The pout pout fish is so funny and so reminiscent of a child who is just convinced that he or she is having a bad day. What I do not like is that at the end of the story the pout pout fish becomes a kiss kiss fish. I personally think that is funny and great but having been a teacher I think this is going to cause problems.
I was working in a school once where a kindergarten student was possibly going to be disciplined for sexual harassment for kissing another kindergarten student on the cheek. I thought then and still do now, that that was ridiculous. Yes, we should teach kids to not go around just kissing everyone but sexual harassment, seriously, it was just out of control what these parents will do. So my main concern is that if you have a book like this that is very innocent, and kids that are innocent, in a school where nothing can be innocent anymore you are going to have a problem. I would hate to have some little five year-old think that a good way to make his or her friends happy would be to go up to them on the playground and give them a kiss because you don't know how that will be taken in today's world. I think it is sad but that is where we are at.
Other than that though I did like the book. I thought it was cute and age appropriate. The illustrations of the sea life are a bit cartoon like but you can still tell what every animal is supposed to be, and that is always good in a book about animals. I do recommend for children ages 3-5 but be sure to have the talk with your kids about not just kissing people without their permission.

Very interesting point there,Ruth, I have to say that sexual harassment for kissing someone on the cheek is a bit ridiculous yet we really can't condone it either,I understand since we basically don't let our children touch in a Montessori school,handshake,yes,but most of the time,it is,"please keep your hands to yourself",I mean not even a hug which is even more ridiculous, this story sounds extremely similar to "Rainbow Fish" but in a sad way instead. I love reading about the books that you read on your blog. We'll catch up soon.ReplyDelete
Thanks for the input. It is sad that kids cannot even hug each other but I do remember the "hands to yourself" rule even when I was in school. We will definitely catch up soon and I am so glad you like the blog, I have a lot of fun with it.

Every week, trying to find the perfect accessory, shoe, bag or piece of clothing to feature on the blog for 'Item of the Week' seems more daunting then the last. We find it so important to pick an item that is both affordable and chic without limiting the type of person it might attract. So, for this week's 'Item of the Week', we chose these super cute Acid Tassel Drop Earrings from Baublebar.
The earrings are definitely more of a statement earring but still very simple. For only $32, these really are a steal. With two colors to choose from, you can't go wrong by purchasing them this summer.

As with most things finance, the answer is that it depends. Mostly, it depends on your age, why you are leaving, and what you plan to do or may need to do with your 401(k) account. Generally speaking, a rollover 401(k) account can be a good option. However, there are times you should seriously consider not rolling over your 401(k) account.
Let's look at a few times it makes sense to do a rollover of your 401(k) account to an IRA and what those benefits may be for the account holder.
First, rollovers are generally free! Most IRA providers do not charge you a fee to do a direct, trustee-to-trustee rollover from your employer 401(k) to an IRA account. This doesn't mean that there might not be other fees to consider such as fees for advice, or with mutual funds you may have expense ratios, management fees such as 12b-1 fees, or possible sales charges referred to as "loads".
A rollover to an IRA could provide you with greater investment options. Frequently, employer 401(k) plans are limited to employer stock (which you likely should not rollover to an IRA, but more on that later) or a selection of funds from which to choose. With an IRA, you will likely have a vast array of mutual funds to choose from and may be able to include ETFs and individual stocks. This variety provides greater planning opportunities for diversification.
Rolling over your 401(k) to an IRA also gives you consistent rules outlined by the IRS. Many 401(k) plans have different rules adopted by the employer, but with an IRA the rules are consistent from provider to provider.
Now let's look at a few times it makes sense not to do a rollover of your 401(k) account to an IRA.
As noted above, if you have company stock in a 401(k) account you likely will not want to rollover the stock to an IRA. If you do, you will lose a tax planning advantage known as NUA (net unrealized appreciation). Basically, you want to move the company stock to a taxable account so that you do not pay ordinary income tax on the stock's net unrealized appreciation. The goal generally is to pay ordinary income tax on the value of the company stock at the time it was added to your 401(k) account. How the NUA amount on the stock is taxed at sell depends on when you sell the stock. You may sell immediately and capture the lower capital gains rate, or you can decide to hold the stock. If you decide to hold the stock, you have a new clock ticking and need to wait at least a year on the new gains before selling and taking advantage of the lower capital gains rate. Timing and planning are critical to your goal so consult with your adviser prior to executing any move.
Are you age 55 or older when you separate from service? In this case, the 10% penalty for early withdrawal will not apply to withdrawals from your 401(k). Depending on your individual circumstance, this may be an advantage to not rolling over your 401(k) account to an IRA. Separation from service includes being fired, laid-off, or quitting your job. Keep in mind that it is the separation from service at age 55 or older that is important. The IRS says distributions, "made to a participant after separation from service if the separation occurred during or after the calendar year in which the participant reached age 55," are not subject to the 10% early withdrawal penalty. This treatment does not apply to an IRA so if you rollover your 401(k) account you lose this planning option.
Another reason not to rollover your 401(k) account is greater legal protection. 401(k) accounts have stronger federal law protections from creditor liens and judgments than do IRAs which fall under state law protections which vary. This protection does not include IRS tax liens and possibly spousal or child support, so keep that in mind. The Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005, does protect up to around $1.2 million (inflation-adjusted) in traditional or Roth IRA assets against bankruptcy but other types of liens and judgments vary by state. So, depending upon your situation, leaving your 401(k) account intact with your former employer could provide greater safety.
Deciding whether to rollover your 401(k) account to an IRA is a big decision. If you are not sure what to do, spend some time discussing your goals and intent with a financial planner. As an independent Certified Financial Planner™, I can help you decide how to move forward based on your personal situation and goals. Contact me and let's get started!

As most of you are well aware by now, Muslims all around the world are celebrating the Hari Raya Haji that began from this Monday onwards. Just like many of the other Islamic traditions, any celebration would always begin with a mass congregation of prayers in the early morning.
I have been to many of these congregations all my life but I have never subjected it under the purview of my own lens. So this week, I did just that and what came out of it is this following short photo essay. In this photo essay, it presents to you my analysis on how such massive congregations take place within a wider context/environment and how both of it interacts with one another.

While attending high school in the South, he meets another girl named Hye-in (HAN Ye-ri) and rescues her when she is attacked. South Korean Intelligence soon discovers the plot and begins closing in on Myung-hoon, while his own government sends a vicious assassin to eliminate him.

Islands with divine sunsets in south-west Florida
Sanibel Island and its neighbour, Captiva, on the balmy south-west coast of Florida, boast the finest beaches in North America. It's worth a trip for the sunsets alone, and the sand is so perfect here that the American Sand Sculpting Championships are held further south at Fort Myers Beach every November.
As the archipelago arcs on to North Captiva, Cayo Costa and Cabbage Key, the road stops and you take to the water. Sanibel and Captiva are jumping-off points for island-hopping boat trips.
There are more than 100 islands to explore with plenty of opportunities to see the local wildlife. Keep a lookout for playful dolphins, grazing manatees, 100lb tarpon, graceful seahorses and birds including osprey.
Island life slows down to the pace of a bike or a golf cart, buildings taller than a palm tree are banned, and alligators bask among the sand dunes and mangrove swamps.
The Port Boca Grande lighthouse on Gasparilla Island has been guiding mariners since 1890 and its museum takes visitors on a trip back in time.
Sanibel's most photographed structure is the Sanibel Lighthouse, first lit in 1884. Today, half the island is given over to the JN 'Ding' Darling National Wildlife Refuge, one of the largest natural mangrove wildernesses in the USA and home to spoonbills, egrets and pelicans.
Most of Cayo Costa Island is a state park where you can commune with nature in a tent or log cabin. On the mainland, Six Mile Cypress Slough Preserve is like a mini-Everglades with the benefit of boardwalks, visitor centres and guided nature tours.
In Estero Bay and on Pine Island, there are reminders of the region's original residents – shell mounds up to 30ft high created 2,000 years ago by the Caloosahatchee Indians.
In the 1880s, Thomas Edison built a winter home in Fort Myers, the aptly named 'City of Palms'. His neighbour was automobile magnate Henry Ford, and both men's estates make for a fascinating visit, including Edison's botanical garden and pickled-in-aspic laboratory.
Today you will find a plethora of charming restaurants, chic boutiques, cosy antiques shops and performing arts venues among Fort Myers' brick-lined streets and handsome, balconied Spanish-Floridean houses.
For an artistic experience, drive out to little Matlacha Island, a laid-back jumble of art galleries, seafood markets and funky waterside restaurants, mostly housed in tiny bungalows painted in psychedelic colours.
Or head south to Fort Myers Beach, which boasts its own Times Square. With its outdoor dining and street performers, it is as unlike its big-city namesake as you can get – which is, of course, the very essence of Fort Myers and Sanibel's charm.

A home is one of the greatest and wonderful properties and also frequent investments for most of the people. When we asked general contractors about job-related (as opposed to people-related) problems that lead to delays or cost overruns, they said that many of the culprits are hidden behind walls—structural damage, for example, or electrical wiring that isn't up to code.
Likewise, the larger your home is, the more you can expect to pay for remodeling multiple rooms For example, remodeling a whole house that's fewer than 1,000 square feet costs an average of $18,347, while a 3,000- to 4,000-square foot home costs an average of $36,121.
That's getting more and more important today since many homeowners want to use space that would once have gone to upper cabinets for windows or even wall space for displaying artwork or a flat screen TV. So, while it's true that storage is always at the top of new-kitchen priorities, kitchen contractors are being challenged to be ever more creative in coming up with solutions.
A few notes on a well-built deck, which is one of the best remodeling investments you can make to add value to your home… But there is a large number of deck failures and resulting injuries throughout the Country every year so its a good idea to have your deck checked and do the required maintained if needed.
Energy savings on the side." If you're just changing the siding on your home as part of your exterior remodeling project, talk with your contractor about adding rigid-foam sheathing under replacement siding, installing insulated siding, or installing an air barrier to reduce leakage.
