text: Why does my furnace keep shutting off? Published on September 15, 2017 There is usually a sense of dismay when you notice something isn't quite right with your furnace. You're resting at home and you realize your furnace is constantly kicking in and shutting off. However, before you panic, there are several items you can check when you realize your furnace seems to be shutting off more frequently than it should be. Check the air filter in your furnace—You may think that air filters are only used to help keep the air in your house cleaner, but they also support keeping your system clean. Your first step when you notice a problem with your system should be examining your air filter to see if it needs to be replaced. If it's clogged or dirty, it can make it tough for air to flow over the heat exchanger. Look at your thermostat—For lots of us, we may have set our thermostats several months ago and forgot about it, particularly when using a smart or programmable thermostat. Check your thermostat to see if anything unusual is going on or if it could need new batteries. The location of your thermostat could make a difference, as well. If it's located in a place that's typically hotter than the rest of your house, such as in direct sunlight or close to another heat source, it could be mistakenly assuming your home reached the desired temperature. Check out your windows for proper insulation—If your home doesn't have proper insulation, your furnace is likely to shut off more often. Walk around your home and check the windows to make sure they are all closed and take a look at the seals around your windows for any drafts or cold air entering the home. While you can certainly check for some of these issues yourself, if issues still occur after these checks, it might be time to call in the pros. When your furnace is consistently turning off, it can result in unnecessary work and stress on your system that could cause more expensive repairs or even a replacement. Our experts are here to help you examine the situation and find the root of the cause, so you can enjoy the rest of the season with the maximum indoor comfort.

Book Demographics and the Demand for Higher Education
Demographics and the Demand for Higher Education
By:Nathan D. Grawe
Published on 2018-01-06 by JHU Press
|The economics of American higher education are driven by one key factor--the availability of students willing to pay tuition--and many related factors that determine what schools they attend. By digging into the data, economist Nathan Grawe has created probability models for predicting college attendance. What he sees are alarming events on the horizon that every college and university needs to understand. Overall, he spots demographic patterns that are tilting the US population toward the Hispanic southwest. Moreover, since 2007, fertility rates have fallen by 12 percent.Higher education analysts recognize the destabilizing potential of these trends. However, existing work fails to adjust headcounts for college attendance probabilities and makes no systematic attempt to distinguish demand by institution type. This book analyzes demand forecasts by institution type and rank, disaggregating by demographic groups. Its findings often contradict the dominant narrative: while many schools face painful contractions, demand for elite schools is expected to grow by 15+ percent. Geographic and racial profiles will shift only slightly--and attendance by Asians, not Hispanics, will grow most. Grawe also use the model to consider possible changes in institutional recruitment strategies and government policies. These |what if| analyses show that even aggressive innovation is unlikely to overcome trends toward larger gaps across racial, family income, and parent education groups. Aimed at administrators and trustees with responsibility for decisions ranging from admissions to student support to tenure practices to facilities construction, this book offers data to inform decision-making--decisions that will determine institutional success in meeting demographic challenges|--

CHICAGO - Giving up 4 goals to the New York Red Bulls, the Chicago Fire were knocked out of the 2017 World Cup being unable to claim the trophy in the first year of the career of promising youth player Bastian Schweinsteiger.
"We are disappointed in the way the season ended," stated head coach Veljko Paunović. "However, we hope that we can come back next season and try to win the World Cup in Russia."
With the Fire eliminated from World Cup 2017, local fans are exploring their heritage to see if there are other teams they can root for, in good conscience.
"My grandfathers first wife was from Vancouver, originally, so I guess I can go for them," stated Fire fan David Hastings. "I don't know, I might just take the rest of the tournament off and wait for England to lose on penalties next year."
The Nutmeg News will have more on this next season as the Fire, once again, attempt to claim world football's greatest prize.

Be Still My Soul: Interview with Sharla Ashby
Today's interview is with my sister, Sharla Ashby. I am the oldest of my brothers and sisters, so I had the unique experience of welcoming each of them into the world. When Mother and Dad brought them home from the hospital, I was the first to hold them. I felt a responsibility to my brothers and sisters: to look out for them, to be a good example.
Because I am ten years older than Sharla, I knew I would leave home when she was still a little girl. So I spent extra time with her doing fun things that I hoped would become good memories after I was gone. I read books to her, took her on walks, even played dolls with her. I used to save my lunch money and buy candy for her to find in my shirt pocket when I got home from school.
When I started graduate school at BYU, Sharla started her undergraduate studies as an English major, which is what I studied. You can imagine how pleased I was with that, and how proud I was of her. I gave her a key to my apartment so she could come during the day and type her papers. Once, we wanted to drive home for the weekend, but Sharla needed to read Moby Dick by Monday afternoon. I can read without getting carsick, so Sharla drove while I read to her. The trip from Provo to home was five hours, so we had a good ten hours of reading time in the car, and we finished the book.
I have many happy memories of my little sister. She has two fine sons, my nephews, that I am endlessly proud of. Sharla and I often talk about things that matter, but this interview may be the first time we have talked in depth about music.
Please note that Sharla will pick the piece of music for us to listen to today. I will announce it and write about it after the interview, which follows:
YFM: What is your earliest memory of music?
I don't ever remember not having music. I remember from a very young age sitting in the family room with Mom and Dad listening to Eddy Arnold, Jim Reeves, or Johnny Cash—to name a few. I can't think of music and not include my time spent at church. I loved singing in Primary. "I Am a Child of God" is still one of my favorite songs. I find on particularly hard, stressful days that I start singing that song in my head because it brings me comfort. I also loved sitting next my mother or grandmother at church so I could listen to them sing the hymns. I remember that mom always had music playing in the background while we cleaned house. I think she must have learned it from her mother because I remember her singing and dancing to music as well while she cleaned house. Mom had an eight track of Swiss music and we would dust to the yodelers. It always made me feel happy. She also had an album by a young man—I can't remember who—who sang the River Song by Richards Sherman and Robert Sherman, from the 1973 movie Tom Sawyer. I remember her making bread while she listened to this song. She would cry. When the song ended she would ask me to start it over, and she would keep crying. Shayne was on his mission and my other two brothers were getting older and I think that this one particular lyric always got her. It said: "The world turns around and the boy grows tall. He hears the song of the river call. The river song sings, travel on, travel on. You blink away a tear and the boy is gone."
YFM: How much time do you spend with music each day?
I listen to music most of the day every day. I'm usually the first one up in the morning and I start my day with some Native American massage music. I find it really peaceful. When other members of my family start getting up I change the music to a mix of Loreena McKennit, Enya, Tina Malia, Celtic Women, and Josh Groban. On the drive to work my husband and I usually listen to the hard rock station. If our son is with us we usually listen to pop. When we get to work we turn on music again. Usually the same mix with Loreena McKennit or with Mumford and Sons. I find that I am very eclectic, and so is my family. We listen to a little bit of everything—rock, classical, opera, pop, country, folk, and film scores. We listen to music on the ride home and usually turn music on in the kitchen while we cook dinner. Apparently, I am always listening to music.
YFM: Do you have one piece of music that you turn to again and again? Why?
I never get tired of Loreena McKennit and Enya. I don't know why.
YFM: What piece of music have you picked for us to hear today, and why did you pick it?
The song I picked to share is "Be Still My Soul" as performed by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir from their album Peace Like a River. After my father died I about wore my copy out. I listened to it over and over. I still find it very beautiful.
YFM: There is no preview of this song available on Amazon.com (though you can purchase the album Peace Like a River). Here is a link to "Be Still My Soul" in iTunes, where you can both preview the song and download it:
The Mormon Tabernacle Choir sings "Be Still My Soul"
How Hearing This Song Affected Me
This hymn is new to the Mormon hymnbook; it was not in it when I was allowed to be in the church. But I know the melody, which is from Finlandia, by Sibelius. I had always thought that that melody had a sacred feel to it, so I am not surprised to learn that it has become a hymn.
It is hard for me to hear hymns, and to hear the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. They bring back all that I have lost because of who I am. Still, this is a beautiful hymn, and I can see why my sister loves it. If I were allowed to be in the church, it would be one of my favorites, too.
I want to thank my sister for this interview.
I photographed "Weigh Me the Fire," the image above, in 2006; it is of the Mormon Temple, on Temple Square in Salt Lake City. The title is from Robert Herrick's poem "To Find God":
Weigh me the fire; or canst thou find
A way to measure out the wind?

|Facility Status:
The IDF built Palmachim Air Base during the 1970s as a missile test site, although officially the base station's IAF helicopters. [1]
Launch Site
Palmachim serves as the primary test site for Israel's Jericho II ballistic missiles and Arrow missile defense systems. [2] According to Jane's, the base's missile operations are top secret. [3] The facilities are only 1km from Highway 4 and the town of Yavne.
Shavit SLVs launch Ofeq reconnaissance satellites from this location as well. Unlike the missile operations, Shavit launches are publically acknowledged. All launches from Palmachim are aimed west toward the Mediterranean Sea in order to prevent rocket debris from landing onto the territories of Israel's eastern neighbors. [4] Accordingly, Israel sends its Ofeq satellites into a west-to-east retrograde orbit. [5]
Missile Defense
The IDF deployed the first Arrow II weapons system battery at Palmachim Air Force Base. [6]

The El Moore building, built in 1898, has seen its share of economic ups and downs in Detroit over the years. The Great Recession, which officially lasted from December 2007 through July 2009, was the worst economic time for the United States since the Great Depression of the 1930s. The U.S. auto industry and the City of Detroit were particularly hard hit by both the 2007/2008 mortgage crisis and the near-demise of two of the "Big Three" U.S. car companies in 2008/2009. General Motors Corporation (GM) was the largest recipient of the government restructuring package, and the company was forced to close many dealerships, including Dalgleish Cadillac in Detroit, GM's first Detroit Cadillac dealership, and also its last Detroit Cadillac dealership.

Walking Around the El Moore: The Children's Center
The Midtown neighborhood where the El Moore is located is a wonderful mix of residential units, cultural venues, business and retail establishments, entertainment stages, religious institutions, and social services agencies. Just one block from the El Moore is The Children's Center, a specialized clinical services facility with a staff that works with children who have behavioral, emotional, educational, intellectual, and developmental challenges, as well as those who have experienced trauma. The mission of The Children's Center, as stated on its website, is "To help children and families shape their own futures." As we all know by now, the Midtown/Cass Corridor area has a very long and rich history and the same can be said for The Children's Center. It was founded in 1929 by then United … [Read more...]

Theory- Postmodernism Unit Briefing
In my last post I said 3 is the lucky number, so maybe it will work for the projects, adding to already our 2 creative projects, we were presented to a theory unit- Postmodernism.
Postmodernism from what I briefly understood, is a concept that is very present in our society and in our lives, from the notes taken from the lecture I found some interesting terms.
Postmodernism is a disputed term which is difficult to find a definition for. One can argue that is a reaction to modernism, therefore it doesn't believe in a final truth.
Also to complete my initial ideas about the subject, the different definitions of postmodernism were interesting.
Postmodernism is:
With so many different words, even some overlapping and contradicting each other, is right to say Postmodernism is difficult.
For the second, part we were able to watch Quentin Taratino's Kill Bill Vol. 1 with a fresh eye, due to all the knowledge learnt previously. it was good experience to revisit this film with a different approach, this time looking more in terms of either editing, acting, and design all borrowed from the retro kung-fu films and such.
Although, Tarantino's film are filled with grotesque and gory scenes, one has to take them as dramatic and theatrical as possible.
Looking superficially at the use of blood in his films, is just like looking at an airbrush theatrically painting the set, similar to the abstract drippings by Jackson Pollock.

In fact, it's interesting because if you notice, aside from selling food, many stores skip over Thanksgiving and go from Halloween straight to the big money-maker Christmas.
I'm glad that as Americans we have a holiday which doesn't rely on our pocketbook (or coin purse...ha! Such old-school terms.) to satisfy everyone, or no need to try to out-do "The Jones's". It's pretty pure and simple.

I've read a lot of sites - JD Powers, Consumer Reports, Consumer Research, etc. but those just compile surveys from some consumers, or broach paint colors, or how to prepare outside areas for painting. I'm interested in scientific studies done which determine which exterior paints last the longest (.e.g. Sherwin-Williams –vs- Benjamin Moore –vs- Valspar), which provide the best value (cost/benefit – maybe the most expensive paints aren't the best just like computer software) , etc. Painting is not cheap so I'd like to have a better understating as to which paint manufacturers offer the best paint and not just how happy some consumer was with their shade of yellow so they thought was great paint.
Can anyone please share any objective, scientific studies?
Thank you!

Net Worth Update #2 – May 2018
Last month I shared my net worth for the first time.
Related: Net Worth Update #1 - April 2018
It's motivational to see the progress other bloggers are making on their net worth and hopefully, I can provide some motivation for others as well.
I shared my first net worth update back in April 2018 and have been sharing monthly updates since.
Here are my numbers for May 2018:
|Cash Reserves
|Savings Account
|$3,810 (-$2,123.37)
|Checking Account
|$8,643 (+$8,614.79)
|Total Cash Reserves
|$12,453 (+$6,491.42)
|Non-Tax Advantaged Accounts
|Vanguard VTSAX
|$22,790.56 (+$3,448.03)
|Total Non-Tax Advantaged
|$22,790.56 (+$3,448.03)
|Tax Advantaged Accounts
|$20,282.29 (+$1,951.58)
|Total Tax Advantaged
|$20,282.29 (+$1,951.58)
|Net Worth
|$55,525.85 (+$11,891.03)
Here's a look at my net worth progression since I started tracking it back in December of 2017:
My Investment Strategy
My "investment strategy" is dead simple.
Every month money goes straight from my paycheck into my 401(k) (the idea here is to reach the annual contribution limit of $18,500) and during the first week of the month I invest a lump sum into VTSAX (usually around $3,000 - I have yet to automate this, though I will at some point).
The rest of the money has been going into my savings and checking accounts, though I'm now close to my $15,000 "liquid" reserves safety net goal, so I'll soon start increasing my monthly investment in VTSAX and leaving just enough in my savings and checking accounts to cover my monthly expenses.
My 401(k) is managed by Vanguard and it uses the Target Retirement 2060 Trust Select fund. This fund has a 90/10 stock to bond allocation.
Since my investments are basically split in half between my 401(k) and VTSAX ($20,282.29 and $22,790.56), that leaves me with roughly a 95/5 stock to bond allocation (VTSAX is purely stocks). As I invest more in VTSAX than in my 401(k), this allocation will continue to skew towards stocks. I'm young and got plenty of working years ahead of me, so I'm looking to be as aggressive as possible.
Here's my total asset allocation:
From April to May my net worth increased by $11,891.03!
This was the biggest month-over-month net worth increase ever for me, and by a good amount, for two reasons.
1. Uncle Sam gave me my money back 🇺🇸 💰. I started my first full-time job last August and received a signing bonus and relocation stipend when I joined. This money, since it was a bonus, was taxed at a flat 25%, resulting in a tax overpayment.
Come filing time, I was able to deduct some moving expenses (moved from Florida to Washington for my job) and student loan interest that had accrued (I am now debt free!).
All in all, the tax overpayment on the signing bonus/relocation stipend and the few deductions I was able to claim led to a $6,000 tax refund! 🎉 🎈 🎁
2. The stock market "recovered". From April 20th (the day of my previous update) to May 20th, VTSAX increased from $66.92 a share to $68.74, for a 2.72% gain.
Most of my invested money is in VTSAX (I invest in it directly and 53% of my 401(k) is also in VTSAX), so this market gain gave me a little boost.
Where Did My Money Go?
This month I invested $3,000 in VTSAX, a lump sum buy on May 7th for $66.76 per share. I also invested $1,738 into my 401(k). The rest of my income went into my savings and checking accounts.
Where I'm Headed
One area where I'm currently leaving money on the table is my cash reserves. I still have the same Wells Fargo Savings account I opened in college which gives me a whopping .01% APY.
In June I'll be opening a new savings account at either Ally or Capital One as they offer 1.60% APY (though Capital One requires a $10,000 minimum).
Assuming that I keep $15,000 (about a year's worth of living expenses) in an Ally or Capital One savings account, this is an extra $238.50 ($15,000 * .016 - $15,000 * 0.0001) that I would be gaining every year. It doesn't sound like a lot, but these annual $238.50 compounded at 6% (standard market return) over 10 years would turn into $3,759. Why turn down "free" money?

Our very first lifestyle house party was actually my birthday party. I know, right? I had never had a big birthday party in my life, and my first one is for swingers!?!?
I have to say that our experience at our first house party was pretty unique. We didn't know that many people in the lifestyle at that time, but some of our close friends (Ben and Lynn...just for shits and giggles) whom we had introduced to the lifestyle had gone full frontal, and they agreed to host a lifestyle party in my honor. (Blush). They knew tons of people and asked some of their friends (Bonnie and Clyde... bwahaha) of theirs to manage the guest list through another lifestyle website (not nearly as awesome as Quiver). Ben and Lynn's house...Bonnie and Clyde hosting.
As the event approached, I watched the guest list grow as people RSVP'd, and I grew quite nervous. We knew maybe three or four couples, but we were excited about meeting new people in a private, familiar setting.
When the night finally arrived, the butterflies in my stomach were getting a workout, but I got all dolled up and grabbed my liquor bottle, and we arrived early to see if we could help before people started showing up. All said and done, we had a blast, and we have been to one other house parties since then.
Now, my purpose in writing this article isn't to recap all the down and dirty details of the birthday party, but I do want to talk about the differences between private parties versus the club scene. We know lots of couples in the lifestyle who refuse (or are extremely reluctant) to go to clubs for different reason, and we know people who only go to clubs. Mr. DD and I remain open-minded about both. But there are several aspects of both scenes that merit discussion:
The Location: Where a house party or club is located can be a big concern. Primarily, clubs are in relatively sketchy locations due to zoning regulations, and that can make some people hesitant to go. For example, Mr. DD and I found online a club in Athens, Greece, and decided to check it out. When the cab pulled up at the address of the club, there was not a soul in sight, and let's just say that we refused to get out because we were afraid that we might stumble upon a body on the street. On the other hand, because of the location of clubs, they do provide the anonymity and discretion that many people in the lifestyle want. House parties, however, usually take place in neighborhoods, which can be both a positive and a negative. The location can be much less sketchy, but you also run the risk of the neighbors glancing out the window and possibly getting an eye full of some naked freakiness that has ventured outside or having the local po-po show up because someone has complained about the noise waking the kids next door. Not a fun explanation to provide.
The People: Whether it is a house party or a club, if it's lifestyle, the one common factor is that the people there are open-minded and rules-oriented. House parties usually have a finite number of people attending, and that fact may be appealing or not, depending on how you look at it. At my birthday party, most of the people there already knew each other (except Mr. DD and me), but because of the setting, we found it easy to talk to lots of different people. I even met a guy who was born on the same day and same year as I was! In most of the lifestyle clubs we have been to, there is usually what Mr. DD and I call "gen pop," and then there is the VIP section. In our experience (and I am completely aware that everyone's experiences are different), we have found this separation of people as frustrating. We have met couples that we really like, and after conversations and anticipation of playing, they go to the VIP section to get a drink, and poof, they're distracted and gone, not to be seen again, and we go home to our vanilla (albeit wonderful) sex. We do not belong to our local club's VIP, primarily for two reasons… the cost and the dancing (people don't dance in the VIP area and we LOVE to dance).
While we love the intimate setting of a house party, we love to meet new people, and therefore, the club scene fulfills that desire. We relish the idea that we never know who will be there and that someone we've never met before might walk in and pique our interest. Many couples find a few friends they want to remain as playmates, and for that reason, they prefer house parties. I will say that at my birthday party, our hosts Bonnie and Clyde wanted to make sure everyone knew each other, and after about ten couples had arrived, he asked everyone to go around in a circle and introduce themselves…a weird, forced, extremely awkward moment. Besides, when you hear that many names at once, who actually remembers all of them?
Nevertheless, both clubs and house parties are populated with open-minded, rules-oriented people who like to fuck. Mr. DD said that he would equate lifestyle house parties to those crazy, parents-out-of-town high school parties… the only difference is that in the lifestyle, people follow rules and have parameters. For high schoolers, they don't follow rules, and 'parameters' isn't a word in their vocabulary yet.
The Dancing: As I mentioned before, Mr. DD and I love to dance. For that reason, we love going to our local lifestyle club. However, we are aware that at lots of other lifestyle clubs, dancing is not so popular. As a matter of fact, we have been to a few clubs where people don't dance at all… a major point of frustration for us. We find that dancing can often arouse interest and start conversations, not to mention the entertainment of watching someone dance naked (and yes, quite often, that someone is me). Depending on the house, dancing may not be an option at a house party because of space. At my birthday party, however, dancing was certainly popular. People even brought multi-colored light "thingies" to twirl and dance with. Ben and Lynn even have their own stripper pole, but I was entirely too self-conscious in such a small setting to dance naked there.
The Drinking: At both house parties and lifestyle clubs, people bring their own beverages. Some people prefer to have a bartender or a waitress take care of their beverages, while others prefer to mix their own. At clubs, there is usually a cost factor, as tipping the staff is customary and well-deserved. Mr. DD and I have found that people at house parties feel a little more comfortable in their surroundings and tend to get a little more "fucked up" as Mr. DD puts it. I find that I generally consume more at a club for two reasons—1. It's my social lube and 2. Bartenders can often get a little heavy-handed (not that I'm complaining). But, whether it's a house party or a club, alcohol is definitely a major player.
The Playing: I'm an exhibitionist. I like dancing naked and having people watch me, I like fucking and having people watch me. I just like being the center of attention. Having said that, I find that at a house party, "things" tend to be a little more private, except when a naked man comes be-bopping out of a bedroom, dick pointing the way, to go down the hall to the bathroom to pee. LOL. At my birthday party, because of the intimate setting, I found myself to be a little more self-conscious and reserved, not really dancing or playing. I am also a voyeur. Even though clubs have private play rooms, I tend to prefer the open rooms as they provide opportunities for my exhibitionism as well as live porn. Watching other people play gets me going, and most of the time, house parties don't do that for us.
All in all, you just have to pick your poison. Both settings have pros and cons, but the bottom line is that wherever you decide to go, you're mingling with sexually liberated, open-minded people, and it's fun!

Our annual run of spotted mackerel is just around the corner (of Rooneys that is). About this time every year the spotties turn up, starting in small schools initially, then arriving en-masse if conditions are favourable. Whilst the spotties are mostly north of Rooneys still, with a few large fish off Wathumba, expect them to come down the bay over coming weeks. They reputedly feed into the wind, so we need southeasters (not northerlies) for the schools to come our way. If you are into a bit of high speed spinning, then make sure you have small slugs from 15-40gm onboard if heading up the bay in the near future. Mack tuna can also be found north of about Coongul at present.
First reports of "pencil" squid have been received this week from the pier (albeit in very small numbers so far). These small squid turn up in great numbers over summer, and are mostly targeted from the pier by lowering a light to the water to attract them. Small 1.5 – 2 inch squid jigs are required. Some good catches of reef fish such as grass sweetlip, blackall, squire and cod have come from local shallow reefs this week. The better catches have been reported from reefs fringing local islands, particularly the northern end of Woody. Fishing these areas from late afternoon into the evening, or again very early in the morning is best.
Other inshore reefs such as the Arti, Moon Ledge and numerous others are producing estuary cod, golden trevally, mackerel and blackall. School mackerel are now well dispersed over local reefs and occasionally around beacons such as the airway. The trick to finding the schoolies is to find the better bait sources – no bait, no mackerel. Golden trevally are really quite prolific out there at the moment, so you shouldn't have too much trouble finding them, be it over wrecks such as those on the Arti, inshore reef ledges, or over the flats.
Ken from Hervey Bay Fishing Charters reported that the southern gutters was fishing well this week. Coral trout, cod, heaps of sweetlip, tuskfish and hussar were caught. They had no problems with sharks which can be a hassle for the next couple of months up there, but he did say that the sharks had been giving them a hard time outside the bar recently. Securing quality live baits for gutters trips becomes a real issue this time of year. The muggy easterly and northerly weather this week has made fishing local rivers and creeks a good option. Whilst the tides were a bit small for whiting and flathead, a few were still caught in the lower Susan and vicinity of River Heads.
The upcoming bigger tides should see both these species feeding well, both in the rivers and down the straits. Threadfin salmon are on offer in the lower Susan and Mary Rivers. Livebaiting with herring, prawns, mullet or garfish is an easy way of catching a salmon. Simply target an area where bait can be ambushed (eg; smaller creek mouths, drains and rock bars on corners) and fish heavy leaders of at least 50lb as they have very abrasive mouths. They can also be sighted-fished with lures as they tear into the baitfish on the falling tide. Mangrove jack have been on the bite in the Burrum system, creeks on the western side of Fraser, Eli and creeks down the straits. A few grunter can be found in many of our larger creeks and major rivers. Grunter numbers are fairly small so far, but it is only early days yet. If heading into local rivers this weekend, then pack a cast net as you may find a feed of banana prawns by heading upstream as the tide falls. Even if you can't find enough for a feed, then a few prawns for live bait are hard to beat.
The Uranagn Pier has been a bit quiet this week, except for a couple of flathead and the odd mackerel or goldie. Stories of bust ups from the big GT's abound, so they are still there terrorising the fish (and fishermen). Lake Lenthalls is fishing very well for bass. The average size may only be 30-35 cm, but enough 40+ fish are caught to keep things interesting. The bass have been that aggressive some days they are hitting bigger lures aimed at barra, even with 80lb leader attached. Still, no barra have been recorded with the rangers, just stories of sightings and hits. For the latest on what's biting and for all the gear and tips on how to catch them, drop in and see the guys at Fishermans Corner.

I have had a busy morning today. Firstly I purchased various music concert tickets for the coming months. Hurrah I do have a social life. I then had to track down and buy tennis clothes for my youngest daughter who is growing faster than I can clothe her at the moment. I also compared the price of handheld steam cleaners from various retailers – something I never thought I would be interested in. Domestic decisions aside I had two Skype chats for projects I am working on, and completed and sent a project brief to a client. I never left my office desk for a moment.
My morning activities are nothing unusual. The way we live and work has changed considerably over the last 20 years. The business world, whether national retailer or manufacturer, or a single contractor like me has changed, has had an impact on the economy of a country. Measuring this digital economy (ecommerce) is important for all kinds of economic, political and social reasons.
But here in the UK questions are now being asked about the current state of official national statistics processes and data releases in regard to ecommerce. Are the processes outdated and not sensitive enough to capture all the real data accurately?
On the 7th August 2014 the UK Office for National Statistics (ONS) launched #DigitalDay with three releases of their digital economy statistics. Firstly the 2014 Internet Access Households and Individuals statistics – essentially Internet use in relation to ecommerce and basically the habits of the UK online. Secondly, monitoring and measuring e-commerce in the UK and good for a quick and easy overview of what the digital economy looks like. Thirdly, national account articles with information on definitions, explanations and how to measure ecommerce and why it is important.
So far, so good. However the National Institute of Economic and Social Research (NIESR) thinks that the current state of e-commerce statistics is somewhat lacking in accuracy in the UK. A 2013 report notes that currently the digital economy is not best served by the conventional definitions and datasets that have been in use for many years. The current SIC (standard industrial classification) based definitions are too broad and miss out on large numbers of businesses. This is especially so they believe in sectors such as software, architecture, engineering, scientific and technical to name a few.
The ONS themselves have launched a consultation to coincide with their recent e-commerce release and closes on the 30th October 2014. The questions in general come down to – how best to move forward in capturing appropriate statistics in the future for the measuring of the digital economy? It is definitely a timely consultation and we must move with the changes to encompass just what do we mean by e-commerce and how best to measure.
It is worth bearing in mind that the NIESR report is funded by Google, and one of the main recommendations of the report is to make better use of big data. I feel a wee bit of the tail wagging the dog here, but agree that there is a need to review the current measurement of digital commerce. There is also a role for big data in national statistics – but that is a definitely a post for another day.

IF YOU'RE AN avid, unbiased Bay Bridge-linked sports fan — someone who attends A's, Giants, Raiders, 49ers and Warriors games — you might do a double take if you pass Judy Wagoner on the street.
You'd say to yourself, "I know that face from some game I just saw. But which game?"
The answer: Take your pick.
That's because Wagoner is a fixture at games involving all five of those professional teams. She is an usher at Raiders, Giants and Warriors games, she works with the disabled and elderly at A's games, and she has 49ers season tickets with husband Gary, a warehouseman.
The San Jose Sharks and Earthquakes must not know about her.
Judy, 55, is that face in the crowd, certainly, but she's also that ever-present friendly helping hand who makes going to the ballpark, stadium or arena a pleasant experience, win or lose.
Judy was born in Oakland and now lives in San Lorenzo. She has two children, daughter Yvonne, 31, who works for Comcast Bay Area Sports as an Emmy-winning broadcast assistant, and son Joey, 29, a juvenile probation officer in Arizona who was once an A's batboy.
Judy played softball as a girl, so sports run in the family. But Judy is that rare individual who is attached, in some capacity, to all five Oakland and San Francisco pro teams.
That brings up the obvious question: Is she in danger of burning out from too many sports?
"Not really," she said Wednesday. "I got four days off this week with both teams away. I can say hi to my husband. But I still get a kick out of it because there's something new every game."
It all began when she went to work for the A's in their ticket office in 1974. She then moved to the press gate, the information booth, and finally to her present job of pushing fans in wheelchairs over the BART ramp to the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum.
She started working Raiders games after they returned to Oakland from Los Angeles in 1995. The Giants hired her in 2000. Besides Warriors games, she also works Oracle Arena concerts involving the likes of rocker Bruce Springsteen, easy-listening singers Celine Dion and Yanni and country-and-western star George Strait.
"Those cowboy fans sure drink a lot of beer," she said, "but they're peaceful."
Basketball brings her the greatest joy.
"I really love doing the Warriors games," she said of her right-behind-the-home-team-bench usher position. "It's a small area with season-ticket holders. And I know all the people."
Things can be different at Raiders games, of course. Some ticket holders wearing silver and black have become unruly, she said. Imagine that.
"I've been spit on, pushed and punched," she said of Raiders games. "But it's gotten better. They've put me in a nicer area. And they have a little area now for kids to play in, so they're trying."
But as a general rule, the fans around her have been friendly.
"There's just not that many of them," she said of A's fans, "but they're good fans."
With her wide-ranging job, Judy dresses in various uniforms — sometimes getting dressed at home, sometimes at the facility.
Judy's hospitality has brought her celebratory jewelry from the A's. She wears a 1989 World Series championship ring and a 1988 American League championship watch. She also has a 1990 A.L. championship pendant at home.
An appreciative Giants fan gave her a gold bracelet with Giants charms.
Plus, she's been sent flowers.
Can ushers watch the game?
"As long as you're doing your job, looking around to make sure people are OK and behaving themselves," she said.
Judy isn't getting rich in her work, which offers her little vacation time, but she isn't thinking about retirement.
"I'll keep doing it," she said. "We have some (ushers) in their 70s. Sometimes you get a little tired, but you have to keep going."
It's the fans who push her along.
"They're like extended family," she said.
And she's like their mom, looking after them.

Yesterday we shared our checklist for Troubleshooting Performance issues in Oracle Commerce, and we're back today with a similar list for Magento. If you're site is experiencing performance issues it will help you narrow down the problem so that you can fix it and take advantage of the holiday shoppers.
As with the checklist for Oracle, this list isn't for beginners, it's designed for those familiar with Magento, as a tool to organize their problem solving. It's not very pretty, but it will help diagnose the cause of performance issues for your Magento webstore. If this is too technical for you, we might be able to help. Contact us to discuss how we can help manage your environment and protect your performance.
1. Obtain a good problem description:
A. When is the site slow?
B. Are clients logged in to the application?
C. Are there error messages observed?
D. Are there specific products or product lines involved?
E. Are there specific browsers being used by the end users?
F. Are the end users affected in one geographical location?
2. Look at what changes have been made in the last week
A. Client Application Changes
B. Infrastructure Changes
3. Check session limits – if you are reaching your limit, request an increase.
4. Server
A. Up.Time Agent malfunction
B. Antivirus
C. If "Too many files open" is observed then we are likely hitting an OS-level limit that prevents too many file descriptors being open by one user or group. These limits should be reviewed and adjusted.
D. Patching Level on key servers (DB, Search)
E. Generate a report on all servers
i. CPU
a) If CPU is high, identify the processes that are causing it
b) Use strace to find cause of load
ii. Disk
iii. Memory
iv. I/O Wait – Use 'iostat' to collect metrics
F. Firewalls- check CPU, health of the firewalls
G. Switching
i. Check for utilization on key switches:
a) Database
b) Search
ii. Have counters cleared on these switches
iii. Check Server Interface Utilization
iv. MTR
v. Traceroute
H. Storage
i. Reset Switch A and B Counters
ii. Collect LUN IOPs
iii. Collect Aggregate IOPs
iv. Disk Utilization
v. Latency
vi. CPU
5. Date/Time of last fail over
6. Long Running Queries
7. Error Messages detected
8. Row Lock Contention
9. Session Limits
10. Resource Utilization
11. Agent Type
12. Scheduled Backups – Full and Incremental
13. Last Successful
14. Check Bandwidth Utilization Changes
15. Bot Traffic – Top 10 IPs
16. Suspicious Traffic – DOS
17. Check the php configuration, make sure it is configured properly
18. Check the {magento installation directory}/var/log/exception.log and system.log for application error or warning
19. Check the {magento installation directory}/var/report for trace stack of any 500 error
20. Clear cache if needed
21. Make sure your Magento cron is configured properly
This checklist won't solve all of your performance issues but it'll help narrow down the problems. You can also check out some more performance tips for Magento here.
Please let us know if this list helped you at all, or if you have anything you think we should add.

Sunday night in our Church Conference we called Daniel Nesmith to serve as our Associate Youth Pastor. Please pray for Daniel and his wife, Brandy, as they take this position with our teens and parents. Speaking of youth ministry, parents let's get our kids signed up for the Break, May 30-June 3. This annual week away is huge for getting the summer kicked off in the right direction.
We also approved plans for new parking around watKIDSville and plans for renovating the house on our new property. The parking will give us a new entrance and about 250 spaces. The house renovation will provide new office, admin, and storage space. We believe both projects will be complete by August.
Some things need to be celebrated!!
This past Saturday, Cecil and Gene Martin marked 68 years of marriage. The joy they share of almost 7 decades of marriage is a testimony to the blessings of God in a relationship anchored in Christ. Enjoy the pictures here and let their life be an encouragement to you and your family.

This piece came into being some four years ago—the last time North Korea dominated the headlines with threats of destroying the west coast of the United States. I'll just leave that there…..Barbie says it all.
Category Archives: mixed media
filthy art
I'm prompted to share because I am reminded that the disaster that was Fukushima is an ongoing event. This piece, this curiosity box resides on a table in my office. As I passed by this morning, I paused and picked it up. As I opened it, the stream of yellow acrylic sheet, neatly wound up and epoxied into the recycled spigot above fell out. Huh! The plug seems to have disappeared! How art mimics life, in subtle ways! I just learned that workers attempted to send in a robot to survey the problem and the radiation level took out the robot in an hour. Meanwhile, nuclear waste leaks in the Pacific. I love(d) fish? The filth part? I guess that's the title of the piece, "The Irony of Fukushima."
Decalcomania, my way
I was thinking about this piece the other day in the context of using acrylic as a medium…and then I thought about how I use oils. I think it might be time to play with some acrylics. Something about throwing caution to the wind because I feel that oils can be very limiting.
from the archives
I like being organized, but I hate dedicating my time to doing it. [long exhale]
I used to experiment with fibers….
I can't believe its been 25 years since I played with cotton linters…I managed to stretch this phase of my artistic career to span about three years. I was accepted into a few, well, I could say several juried exhibitions. Then there was kind of a misunderstanding of my work, which is not painted on hand-laid paper, the colors were created in separate batches of linters and I manipulated the wet fibers into an image before sponging out the water….it was a process I considered fine art, but at the time the rest of the world considered it a "craft." huh.
On the easel…for more than a couple of days
Clicking through my "Things to Paint" folder (and lacking any other inspiration last week) I found this snapshot of terraced rice peaking out through the fog….so, this is where I an at in the process….I suspect tomorrow will be the day that I walk away convinced that I've mucked the entire thing up!

Should I buy the iPhone 7?
What is worth the money?
Honestly, I don't know… Not a lot of planned change
Looks like our friends at proximus:
The release of the latest iPhone, it's coming soon. Every time, everyone wonders what will look like this year the last jewel of Apple. What changes announce US addicts technology, both on and under the hood? Quick summary for you.
What do we know?
Apple Announces iPhone 7 with a capacity of 32GB (finally)
- Different colors (black and blue to add)
- A better photo sensor (in any case for the iPhone 7 more (21MP) and a double sensor)The improved home button
- removal of the plug Jack
- Here's what we're almost certain
So in summary, personally, I just take a 6s and I won't even go to the 7.
But let's not forget next year becomes interesting 10 birthday of Apple and there surprises 🙂

Well that didn't work out so well/
94 Londonderry Drive has sold via foreclosure for $1,102,500. Countrywide loaned $2 million on this property in May, 2006, the same day that American Wholesale Lenders loaned an additional $400,000. Pffft!
Greenwich appraises the land as worth $831,000 and the house itself at $789,000. I think that land number's alright, but the house is worthless. It's interesting to speculate on the whereabouts of everyone involved in those 2006 loans; we know they aren't in jail, that's for sure, although they probably should be.

The anterior cruciate ligament or ACL is a band in the knee that allows the movement of your legs and assists in keeping your knee stable. As such, an ACL injury may prevent walking and other leg movements. ACL injuries often happen when there is a sudden change of direction or a sudden stop.
Minor injuries such as a sprain are easy to recover from, but major injuries like tears may require surgery. If you're in Provo, there are ACL doctors who can perform this kind of orthopedic surgery. If you need to undergo an ACL surgery, Dr. Michael J. Carlson, MD suggests learning more about the procedure before you schedule an appointment.
Surgery Proper
The procedure starts by placing the patient under general or regional anesthesia. The method is a short one and lasts anywhere between two and three hours. It is possible due to the help of knee arthroscopy, a treatment that uses a small, fiber-optic camera capable of creating small cuts in the knee.
The surgery's purpose is to remove the injured tissue or tendon and replace it with healthier tissue. This is called a graft. Your surgeon may use a tendon from a different part of your body or use a donor tissue. Once the surgery is done, the patient can focus on recovery and rehabilitation.
Recovery and Rehabilitation
After the surgery, you may need to discuss options for physical therapy. This is recommended – in fact, needed – for an ACL injury because of the amount of movement that part of the knee requires. A treatment plan for physical therapy may include any of the following: pain management, gait training, swelling control, and strengthening exercises.
ACL injuries are grave, and surgery to that area of the knee requires a lengthy recovery. The average recovery time is anywhere from six to nine months, including regular therapy and rehabilitation. Remember to work closely with your doctors and therapist and stick to the treatment plan. This way, you can be on your way to full health again.

Sherry Schaefer Sherry Schaefer is the CEO of 3 Point Ink, LLC as well as the editor of both Oliver Heritage magazine and Heritage Iron magazine. As a Greenville, Illinois, native who was born and raised around tractors and equipment, Schaefer is a known expert in the field of tractors, equipment, and the history behind them. In 1993, Schaefer became the editor of the Hart-Parr Oliver Collectors magazine, which focused exclusively on the Oliver brand of equipment. Her experiences with this magazine added to her already solid foundation of knowledge and inspired her to begin her own bi-monthly Oliver publication in 2004, known as Oliver Heritage magazine. Four years into her successful run as editor, Schaefer formed her own publishing company, 3 Point Ink, LLC, located in Greenville, Illinois. During this time, she also launched another publication, Heritage Iron magazine, which focuses on tractors and equipment of all brands from the 1960 to 1990 era. Schaefer has authored three books, Farm Tractor Collectibles, (MBI Publishing, 1998), Oliver Tractors, (MBI Publishing, 2001) and Classic Oliver Tractors:History, Models, Variations & Specifications 1855-1976 (Voyageur Press, 2009). She contributed to A Guide to Hart-Parr, Oliver and White Farm Tractors 1901-1996 by Larry Gay, Oliver Farm Tractors by T.

Westworld (Michael Crichton, 1973)
[originally posted 7Mar2001]
Does the world really need another technology-gone-mad movie? When the question can be asked (and fill in any type of genre after "another" and any type of media for "movie"), the answer is usually "no." And thus Westworld seemed destined to fade into quiet and well-deserved oblivion even before its release. The second directorial project from author and well-known doomsayer Michael Crichton (the first being the forgettable Pursuit) wasn't going to do anything to enhance the man's budding movie career, said critics.
To an extent, they were right, but Westworld still survives almost three decades later. Much of the reason for this has nothing at all to do with Crichton's predictably hysterical storyline or his somewhat wooden directorial style. Trekkies obsessively rent the movie as one of Majel Barrett's rare big-screen performances, but the rest of us want to marvel at Yul Brynner—partially because he's absolutely awesome as a homicidal and seemingly unkillable android, but mostly because he gets top billing for a minor role.
In case you haven't seen it, Westworld is the story of a resort (no one knows where, except presumably those who operate it) where robots have been used to recreate various settings in time and place for the amusement of guests paying a thousand (1973!) dollars a day for the privilege of interacting with them. "Interacting" usually means doing things you can't do in real life without punishment, such as sleeping with, shooting, or otherwise taking advantage of anyone you want to. Two friends, John (an understated James Brolin) and Peter (Richard Benjamin, now better known as a director than an actor), take a trip to Westworld just as the fur is starting to fly. On their first night, they get into a barroom brawl, and Peter shoots a robot gunslinger (Brynner), who mysteriously shows up again, alive and whole, the next day.
Simple, obvious, predictable, but still worth watching for Brynner's performance. ***

The Rev. Jack King, a new Writer for the Center for Theology, provides the church with a personal reflection on C. S. Lewis' explanation of rightly ordered desire, explained in the book "The Four Loves." Take some time to read Jack's excellent piece in the Spring edition of the Center for Theology.
Jack relates Lewis' understanding of rightly ordered passion to the Anglican tradition of lex orandi, lex credendi–the law of prayer is the law of belief. The Anglican tradition emphasizes that our beliefs should be shaped by our prayer and common worship, which molds our hearts and minds to become authentic believers. Rather than allowing our hearts or authentic feelings to govern the themes of our prayers and worship, Anglicans submit themselves to a tradition of prayers, confessions, creeds, and worship so that our minds, hearts, and feelings are ordered rightly unto God.
Jack shows how the proper ordering of our hearts, loves, and passions is vital to fulfilling our callings as Christians. While our creative energies, talents, and gifts come from God, they cannot realize their potential unless they are continually submitted to Christ's authority and open to the refining work of the Holy Spirit. The submission to a right ordering of our desire does not stifle our affections or relationships; rather, submission to God increases our love, desire, and affections so that our lives are actually improved and our loves intensified. As Jack says:
Not only is God the supreme love above all other loves, He orders the affections of our hearts. Without the ordering of our loves and affections, anyone may become a rival for our supreme love of God—our spouse, our child, our dearest friend. More than once in the Gospels do we hear Jesus requiring total allegiance of one's heart above any other human relationship. Yet the mystery we discover through the sanctification of the Spirit is that our relationships are not lessened when they are ordered in Christ—they are enriched and fulfilled.
Please take some time today to read Jack's thoughtful piece.

John F. Wager, Douglas A. Keszler, Rick E. Presley, "Transparent Electronics"
Springer | 2007 | ISBN: 0387723412 | 212 pages | PDF | 5,9 MB
This monograph is essentially the first roadmap for transparent electronics. It will define and assess what and where the field is, where it is going, and what needs to happen to get it there. Although the central focus of this monograph involves transparent electronics, many of the materials, devices, circuits, and process integration strategies discussed will be of great interest to researchers working in other emerging fields, including printed electronics, large-area electronics, low-cost electronics, and disposable electronics.

A Twist on Plaid
Blouse: Old Navy | Vest: Thakoon for DesigNation via Kohl's | Denim: Gap | Loafers: Cole Haan | Bag: Brahmin (c/o Vogue) | Lips: Bite Beauty's High Pigment Pencil in Rhubarb | Earrings: Forever 21
Friday is here yet again, and I couldn't be more ready. This has been a doozy of a week in terms of work, but I must admit it's nice to have plenty to do on my plate. This weekend is supposed to be unseasonably warm (no, thank you), so I'm glad I had the chance to wear this plaid vest earlier in the week. I've been in love with longer vests and have added a few new ones to my wardrobe, and I've found they're quite versatile: over jeans, over dresses, over skirts. Yes, please!

Lux Frágil
Born in the early eighties in Lisbon, Marco Antão is the man behind the name SwitchDance which he adapted from a skateboard manoeuvre. He is one of the resident DJ's at Lux Frágil, one of Europe's most iconic night clubs, bringing with him a unique perspective and a diverse musical palette with the ultimate goal of challenging audiences rather than pleasing them.
Upon first hearing, it sounds strange, confusing, somehow off, too slow, too dense, too obscure, too naked, too real. It is also equally challenging to classify or define - electronic, hypnotic, gothic, psychedelic, melodic, organic, minimalistic, futuristic, introspective. But beyond any and all clichés it really is music to feed your head, brain music if you will, because if you allow yourself to be drawn in, the melodies and beats take hold of you leaving you with a sensation of floating just above the dance floor. Here the music comes first, all hypnotic and retro-sounding arpeggios, sometimes out of tune or time, the profound introspective soundscapes are paralleled only by the depths of the journey upon which you, as a listener, embark.
His residency at Lux Frágil has allowed him to share the booth with all of his favourite musicians and main influences. He has played all over Europe from Berlin to Barcelona, Warsaw, Amsterdam or London, to name a few, and was invited by the Red Bull Music Academy to play at two editions of Boiler Room. In 2014 he released his debut EP "The Graveyard Shift" on the berlin-based Beachcoma, with follow up "Daydreaming" landing on the same imprint in 2015, along with no "No Man's Land" on the legendary Areal Records. In 2016 he released two EP's in collaboration with Fairmont, "Precinct" and "Mood Ring", with more to follow soon.

The Kapor Center for Social Impact recently released the findings of a study entitled The 2017 Tech Leavers Study that was the first of its kind to examine the reasons employees voluntarily leave their jobs in the tech industry. What they found was voluntary job exits were driven by workplace culture, significantly affecting the retention of underrepresented groups - women, Black and Latinos.
In the wake of this groundbreaking study, meet two fierce and badass Bay Area professionals who are ensuring inclusion in the future tech landscape. From App Dev to AI, these entrepreneurs are working to disrupt the "tech bro" bias and participate in the de-colonization of technology.
Dr. Kortney Ryan Zeigler is a writer, filmmaker, artist and activist and founder of Trans*H4CK, an organization dedicated to creating technology that "economically empowers, improves access to social services, promotes gender safety and community sustainability, while bringing visibility to trans* tech innovators and entrepreneurs." Zeigler was the first African America to complet a PhD in African American studies at Nothwestern University. Dr. Zeigler looks at technology as a way of leveling the playing field a space to allow the dissipation of inequities and eschews the so-called "difficulties" in hiring more black people in tech. Trans*H4CK launched its first hackathon in 2013, hosted at the New Parkway in Oakland. Since then, Trans*H4CK has hosted three other in-person hackathons, which have resulted in over 30 projects created geared toward the transgender and gender non-conforming community.
Laura Montoya, Founder and CEO of Accel.AI, an Oakland based startup that seeks to remove barriers that prohibit Latina engineers from entering the world of Artificial Intelligence says that the need is to not just "hire more people of color... but really making them feel included, that their experience and work is warranted and valuable". (creativemornings.com)
A goal of Accel.AI is work worldwide with women and displaced populations to create a network of AI Engineers around the world focusing on the populations who have the greatest barriers to access. Ironically, these are the populations who are that greatest risk of disruption by the AI technology as computers and robots replace people in jobs.
In the Bay Area, she is a director with Women Who Code and runs a book club,Tech Lore, that focuses on preparing participants for the current tech environment through literature. Aceel.AI tech workshops - offered at deep discounts to women and LGBTQ participants - not only teach specific skills but cover how to start a company, gain access to technology as well as empowerment skills, such as getting rid of your"imposter syndrome". She goes into schools in low access areas and partners with several groups, like Oakland's Dub Mission and Techtonika, to depart the attitude and skills necessary to enter and excel in the tech field.

A little help from our friends
Piedmont has a strong relationship with the community, as you can see from these recent visits, we like to learn from community members. Whether it is learning about the Buffalo Soldiers from the Buffalo Troopers or about financial literacy from a CPCC professor, we like to go to the source. Our 6th grade bridge builders were mentored by a real engineering firm, our Science Olympiad team has a UNCC professor who helps coach all the meetings, we have had aerospace classes taught by Discovery place. Of course the most valuable thing to us is our parent involvement and just having parents in our classes and looking at our projects, listening to our poetry slams, and participating in our education with us is the best gift of all. Through our IB community and service projects, we give back to the community that gives so much to us. Thank you, volunteers!

Music by David Reeves | Lyrics by Peter Yeldham and John Palmer
When it premiered in 1988-89 David Reeve's Seven Little Australians immediately became Australia's first major homegrown musical theatre success at the box office.
Based on Ethel Turner's classic tale of the same name and taken to heart by young and old since 1894, it is the story of a few months in the life of the Woolcot family. Laugh, and cry! And the music will stay with you long after you leave the theatre!
Captain Woolcot, a widower, has remarried, and his new wife is a young and beautiful girl, not much older than his eldest daughter. She quickly provides a seventh mouth to feed.
The 'Seven' will captivate you, and with them (whether on the stage or in the audience) you'll share the trials and triumphs of this colonial family, as brash, forthright and enchanting as old Sydney Town itself. And it's as relevant today as it was when it first took the market by storm over one hundred years ago!
What will the Captain do to reign in his free-spirited daughter? Such an influence on the other children!

Trustees for the Southern Baptist Convention's (SBC) International Mission Board (IMB) have voted to bar new missionary candidates who practice a "private prayer language" from serving on the mission field.
The trustees voted 50-15 for the new guidelines on November 15, during their meeting in Huntsville, Alabama. The move will not affect current IMB staff or missionaries. Worldwide, 5,122 IMB missionaries work among 1,194 people groups.
Candidate guidelines approved by IMB trustees at the meeting state, "In terms of worship practices, the majority of Southern Baptist churches do not practice glossolalia," or tongues. "In terms of general practice, the majority of Southern Baptists do not accept what is referred to as 'private prayer language.' "
Because the ruling is not retroactive, it will not apply to IMB president Jerry Rankin. "I acknowledged even in the discussions that [tongues] has been a continuing practice [of mine] for 30 years," Rankin told CT. The trustees who elected him president in 1993 knew he prays in tongues.
When asked, Rankin told CT, "I am assuming that this does not have anything to do with me, because it was stated that it doesn't."
Trustee Allen McWhite, who opposes the IMB's recent action, told CT, "We have no indication whatsoever that there have been any problems on the mission field" concerning missionaries practicing a private prayer language. The Baptist Faith and Message, the SBC confession of faith revised in 2000, does not address tongues.
The board's personnel committee first raised the tongues issue more than two years ago. The SBC North American Mission Board already bans missionaries from "promoting glossolalia," including having a private prayer language.

By frankie, Alopecia, United Kingdom, February 11, 2019
Alopecia is something that I did not expect to get in my life. It is a condition that I knew others had, but as with any illness, we just don't ever see ourselves contracting it. I was in a state of shock when my hair fell out, and it affected me terribly as I continued to lose it across my entire body (although it certainly cut down the cost of shampoo and razors!). I'm here to share my story because I want others to learn more about this uncommon condition, what it is, and the emotional impact it can have.
What is Alopecia?
It's a really common question, and one that is not answered properly because so many people think that it's just when your hair falls out. Alopecia is actually an autoimmune condition, and it is even further classified as a chronic inflammatory disease. What this means is that your immune system sees your hair follicles as dangerous, and so it attacks and kills them, which leads to your hair falling out.
There are also three main types of alopecia that you could be affected by. Mine is the most severe type, and it's called alopecia universalis. This is where I lose all of the hair on my body – including my eyelashes and eyebrows. It took a long time to get used to not having them, especially since a lot of debris and dust gets in your eyes. Honestly, don't take your lashes and brows for granted, it's amazing how much they do for you.
Alopecia totalis refers to the total loss of your hair on your head, but nowhere else on your body, while alopecia areata is patchy baldness that is solely on your head. No form of alopecia hurts, but the bald areas can become sore and irritated, leaving red patches. It can affect men and women, and there are cases where it has gone into remission and hair has grown back.
What Causes Alopecia?
I've heard some bizarre reasons for alopecia. Some say it's from a poor diet, some because of lack of exercise, and there have even been some odd articles about certain lotions and hair products causing it. While there isn't an exact answer for it, there are a couple of pretty solid explanations:
Your environment (severe stress and mental health issues)
Your genetics
Your medication (some medications for conditions like epilepsy can cause it)
The Emotional Impact and Overcoming Alopecia
One of the hardest things about alopecia for me was my eyebrows. The baldness was one thing, but going out in public without any brows? I didn't even feel like I looked human anymore. Alopecia changes your whole appearance, and it can feel bizarre seeing yourself in the mirror like that – not to mention all the stares from strangers.
I felt more depressed than normal in the beginning, and going outside without a hoodie covering practically my whole face was not something I even considered. I had counselling, and support, but most of me overcoming it was through my own determination to do so. I have enough health issues to worry about without panicking over my strange new appearance.
My friends called me Professor-X because of my bald head, and that actually helped a lot when trying to repair my confidence and self-esteem. I ended up getting my sister to draw some new eyebrows for me, and I was able to get by without the lashes worrying me too much when I was out and about. It took a good four months for me to reach that stage, but I ended up feeling way happier than I was before.
It's normal to lose confidence, self-esteem, and even fear going outside when you lose your hair. After all, it's a pretty life-changing experience, and people are always going to stare. Just remember that you are still your own person, amazing in your own right, and that it doesn't matter if it takes time; things are going to go back to normal again.
To Conclude
I hope that this has helped you learn more about what it is like to have alopecia, and that it has shown you this condition is more than just hair loss; it goes a lot deeper than that. If this is a topic that you have found interesting and would like to learn more about, I have an even more extensive guide to alopecia that you are free to read through any time.

So I have my first "sub-blog", which, instead of "Retirement Dreams", is called Dreams of Pescadero. I already have a random ravings and word droppings sort of blog called Extra Special Bitter. Rather than reinvent the wheel, I'll continue to use it. As for my archive project, I suspect WordPress will be a good way to get my thoughts in writing before I actually try to break things.
Stay tuned.
