Barbora Baronová is a literary documentarian and publisher coming from the Czech Republic. Being the PhD student at Tomas Bata University in Zlin within the studio of Audiovisual Arts she was accepted for the Research Practicum Program at UNSW where she works on her PhD thesis "Women on Women".
As a literary documentarian she is focusing on topics related to women, their expected status in the society and stereotypes linked to their roles. Listening to women stories and recording "the female voices" she aims to contribute to the female oral history covering most important topics within the 20th and 21st centuries.
In close co-operation with photographer Dita Pepe she has created several compact literary-photographic documentary projects which includes more than hundred women from the Czech Republic, Japan, South Africa as well as Australia.
Over the course of collecting and sharing the female narratives by creative means she has realized how delicate the work of the documentary maker, with regard to the intimacy, privacy and individual approach to the creation of the documentary, and therefore interesting for possible research, can be.
"As a documentary maker I undergo situations requiring personal engagement also behind my own mental or physical intimate or comfort zone. In the documentary making I am becoming observer, participant, influencer, as well as the creator of the documentary content," she clarifies the reasons to start her PhD research. "Coming from the post-communist country with the feminism discredited by patriarchal, paternalistic regime I am convinced due to my experience that the act of documentary creation is strongly influenced by the specific Czech history having an impact on the current role and status of the Czech documentary makers as well as the documentary content. In order to support my research in the Czech Republic I have decided to include an example of the Western country whose experience with feminism is different to compare particular aspects of creative approaches within the practice of documentary films and books in various artistic, working and living conditions."
Barbora is the owner and the curator of the small art publishing house wo-men (www.by-wo-men.com). She has contributed to the literary world with seven documentary books, all of which are well-recognized for their influential content and artistic character. The books were awarded many Czech and International prizes. She believes in the concept of "bibliodiversity" by Susan Hawthorne and the necessity of spreading voices, marginalized by the society.

28. Bridge of Four Lions across the Griboyedov Canal 9.21.2014
Bridge of Four Lions across the Griboyedov Canal 9.21.2014
Translated from Russian Wikipedia:
Four Lions Bridge (Львиный_мост) is a pedestrian bridge over the Griboyedov Canal in the Admiralty district of Saint Petersburg, connecting Kazan and Spassky Islands. It was built between 1825-1826 under the project of W. von Tretter and VA Christianovich.
Upstream from the Four Lions Bridge is the Kokushkin bridge. Below stream is the Kharlamov bridge. Four Lions Bridge connects Lion Lane and Little Podyacheskuyu street. The name Lions Bridge comes from the four cast-iron sculptures of lions by sculptor P. Sokolov, located at the corners of the bridge.

As the weather in Colorado starts to warm up, the threat of wildfires in the state increases.
Einar Jensen, a Risk Reduction Specialist with South Metro Fire Rescue, sat down with 9NEWS to answer some questions about wildfire season.
He offered up some tips on what to do if a wildfire is reported in your area.
Q. When is wildfire season in Colorado?
A. Wildfire season in Colorado is basically from Jan. 1 to Dec. 31. In other words, we can have a wildfire every day of the year in Colorado when there's not snow on the ground or we haven't had a big rain in hours.
But it's the fine fuels or the small fuels like dead pine needles, grasses, dead leaves that carry most of our wildfires. And those respond to changes in relative humidity and moisture within an hour. So we can have a big rain storm and two days later with the hot dry weather, the wildfire season is right back on us.
Q. What percent of wildfires are caused by humans?
A. Humans are directly responsible for the majority of wildfires. Not only in Colorado, but around the country and probably around the planet.
Indirectly and directly it could be that human is not making good choices and they're burning slash in the backyard or they're flicking the cigarette or it's kids misusing fire. Or it could be a powerline that drops or a transformer that explodes. Directly that's not human-caused, but that's a human construct. And if we maintained all those systems better or buried those electrical lines, that fire wouldn't have started.
Q. What do you do if you start a brush fire?
A. If someone unintentionally starts a wildfire, if it's within the size of a waste paper basket, and they have that hose nearby or they have that fire extinguisher nearby certainly try to put it out. But something we humans forget how fast wildfires expand. Especially if there's a little bit of wind or a lot of dry fuel around.
If there's any doubt that the fire extinguisher can't take care of the fire, pull that cell phone out of the pocket and immediately call 911. You don't want to be stuck out there when this fire is racing through the neighborhood, or racing into the national forest or through the grassland and now we have to wait an additional few minutes for the firefighters to get there.
But really the solution is don't be stupid with fire if it's a hot, dry day. If there's a little bit of wind, anything that you're doing that involves fire, wait until the conditions get better. Respect, acknowledge, follow those burn ban requirements from the local county sheriff and don't be stupid. That's what is comes down to.
Q. What's the perfect weather cocktail to fuel a wildfire?
A. Wildfires ignite just like any fire ignites. If there's the perfect combination of oxygen — we're on the Earth, so that's always around — heat, and fuel. So any time we have a heat source and fuel that is dry, then that wildfire, or any other fire, can start.
With a wildfire, we're thinking about the amount of fuel, we're thinking about the weather. And we can't change the weather of course, so we as humans have to be careful when the weather conditions are ripe for fire. And those weather conditions are hot weather, low relative humidity which means air is dry and vegetation is dry and then a little bit of wind — wind will actually pull moisture out of that fuel as well and the wind will actually drive more oxygen into the fire and push the fire in different directions.
So for us, any day where it's been hot (higher than 70 degrees for a couple days in a row) and dry, that's the ripest condition for a wildfire. With that said, you can still have a wildfire in the winter. In Colorado this year we hardly had any rain or snow east of the Front Range until April and May. So in the winter we can have wildfires as well.
Q. What is a prescribed burn?
A. A prescribed burn is when we as firefighters or other land managers use fire to change an ecosystem. Wildfire is a normal part of most ecosystems. Not just in Colorado, but around the planet. When we exclude wildfire from that ecosystem, that ecosystem doesn't evolve the way it has been for the past several millennia. So water quality can suffer, trees are not as tall or there are more trees than usual. The brush can get taller than what it can be expected to. The grass gets thicker, the wildlife habitat isn't as solid.
So just like how a prescription medication is something to help a human or a critter get better, prescribed fire is a way for that ecosystem to have medicine for lack of a better term so it can function as it did before we humans moved into that ecosystem.
Q. How do firefighters determine their firefighting strategy?
A. Firefighters will determine their strategy for engaging a wildfire based on their expectations of what the fire is going to do, as well as the current and expected weather pattern. So if they know a thunderstorm is coming up in the next hour or so, they're going to adjust their tactics and they're strategies to account for the wind that's going to shift around that thunderstorm whether it's the down drafts in front of that storm or the way the wind is going to shift coming from different directions as the storm passes.
Ultimately, all of those decisions are based on the context of keeping firefighters safe. As we all can imagine, dead firefighters are useless. So they're not going to risk everything, including their own lives, to try to stop a fire that's not safe to engage.
Q. What can homeowners do keep their homes safe from wildfire?
A. Homeowners have a huge responsibility when it comes to living in a wildfire zone. They have a responsibly to keep their family safe, but if they're doing the right thing, they're actually going to keep those firefighters safe by changing the dynamics of that wildfire.
And it's easy for homeowners to do basic mitigation. This includes homeowners who are close to an open space area in any of the suburbs or next to a state park like Cherry Creek State Park. All of us have a responsibility. Part of that responsibility is making sure that your gutters are clear. If you have dead needles or dead leaves in your gutters, that's just waiting for a heat source to cause a fire.
If you live in an apartment building, help the guys out a little bit and get some of those dead leaves out from around your area in your apartment building or condominium.
Other things we can do is choose fire resistant plants for our landscaping. Junipers, fitzers, Mugo Pines, Pinyon pines – we consider those all little green gas cans because they are so flammable; they're explosive.
When they ignite, and they ignite easily, they can produce enough heat to endanger that house that's adjacent to them. You can use those plants, but keep them at least 30 to 50 feet away from your home.
Homeowners can also make sure their address is posted so firefighters can see where the address is and can see the house. They can register for their county's reverse notification system.
For example, in Douglas County, we have CodeRED. You can go to your county's emergency management or sheriff's office website to register for those systems. And contact your local fire department or the Colorado State Forest Service for those tips on how to make your home, your family and ultimately your firefighters as resistant to wildfires as possible.
Jensen has been with South Metro Fire Rescue for almost nine years, and has worked in fire service since 1998.

The process of getting pregnant isn't always easy for everyone and it sure wasn't easy for Boupha. At times, it even seemed like it wasn't meant to be, but Boupha remained strong, kept her ever-present smile and just wanted nature to take its course. Through the many testings, examinations and more testings, she was determined that the day will come. And the day has finally come for Boupha and Phung. A happy miracle. And a happy ending.

Came across this on facebook last night and thought it was funny. It's short but dead on! The link for it is http://crossfitconfessional.blogspot.com/2013/06/crossfitproblems.html?spref=fb. I'm honestly not sure if there are other interesting article's or not on this blog this is the only I have had a chance to read and mainly b/c it was on Facebook.
Here are the Top 5 reasons why CrossFit doesn't make your pretty girl life any better.
5. Your friends no longer think you speak English.
Example: "Have you seen the WOD today? How many Cleans do we have to do? We're going to work on our Snatch after class."
4. Painted nails last as long as your WOD did.
The only alternative to keeping your nails painted is a gel manicure. Also realizing all the "regular" polishes you bought are virtually useless now.
3.Tougher skin.
I don't mean metaphorically. I mean physically. Physically tougher skin. Cuts and bruises all over your body, and rips in your hands on the regular.
2. Jeans.
What are jeans even? You've probably abandoned these from your closet a long time ago when your ass went from no junk in the trunk to too much junk to fit in your trunk. Or something like that.
1. Clothing, period.
I used to be a Medium top and Small bottom. Now I'm a Small top and a Medium bottom. You just can't win.

The rapper deuce in his hot new freestyle "black and white freestyle" took what appeared to be indirect shots at the rappers dizzo and excel, in the third verse of the black and white freestyle he said "know how to rap before you dare to dream" we believe this was a direct shot at dizzo who was part of the dare to dream talent hunt, going on go say, "these rappers are claiming immortal" and "I'm not a God I'm just a man, but no rapper killing the hit better than" a direct reply to dizzo's "I am a God" crooner.
But he didn't stop there he went on to say
"You rappers be giving yourselves titles- Gods, Kings"
Now putting king excel in the picture, further saying "you a king now? I must have missed the crowning, boy who are you clowning"
And ended the freestyle by saying
"You ain't got bars you better bail
While this flow is what I inhale and exhale
And my flow large xxl"
A clever play on words to point out the rapper he was reffering to, no other than king excel, now we have it down from our sources that deuce and excel are in good terms, but the evidence in the lyrics is clear

The ban on birthdays is over in the Big Apple.
The New York City Department of Education has decided against going forward with its plan to ban the use of 50 words on standardized school tests, thinking the terms might be offensive to some people.
Among the words on the forbidden list were birthdays, celebrities, cigarettes, crime, divorce, evolution, politics, sex and religion
Advertisement - story continues below
The recommendation was originally made last week, and New York Schools Chancellor Dennis Walcott told WCBS-TV his department was simply giving guidance to the test developers.
"So we're not an outlier in being politically correct. This is just making sure that test makers are sensitive in the development of their tests," Walcott said.
Words suggesting wealth were also excluded because they could make kids jealous.
"Poverty" was also on the forbidden list, and Sy Fliegal with the Center for Educational Innovation told WCBS that was ridiculous.

"The Petersons take a vacation for five days in their Mercedes … so what? You think our kids are going to be offended because they don't have a Mercedes? You think our kids are going to say 'I'm offended; how could they ask me a question about a Mercedes? I don't have a Mercedes!'" Fliegal said.
After an uproar from parents over the proposed ban, the DOE backed down, but the department released a statement saying it would "continue to advise companies to be sensitive to student backgrounds" and "avoid unnecessary distractions that could invalidate test scores."
The words on the original forbidden list include:
Abuse (physical, sexual, emotional, or psychological)
Alcohol (beer and liquor), tobacco, or drugs

Birthday celebrations (and birthdays)
Bodily functions

After the release of her telling and emotional YouTube documentary Simply Difficult, Demi Lovato shared recommendation on all things love and relationships by way of interview with Arianna Huffington for Thrive International Podcast with iHeartRadio. And that, all three specialists have been quick to note, may be the most important point to know: In many ways, open relationships aren't all that completely different from monogamous ones. It isn't limited to a selected social class, to any ethnic or racial group, or to heterosexual relationships. These are in all probability not the things you could find out about a person by eyeing them on the street, studying their profile on a relationship site, or sharing a fast cocktail at a bar earlier than last call. Once I utilized the advice to myself, I spotted that for the relationships that didn't last, my attraction was an expression of my loneliness.
Harned (see be aware 15) found that substance abuse with courting partners was negatively related to bodily violence whereas normal substance abuse was related to physical violence. The Cease Family Violence presents a group of videos on household violence, including a number of on the issue of dating violence. Nonetheless, individuals relationship on-line don't find it obligatory, they simply ship an e-mail and end the matter! Such a dating violence can also be characterized by attempts to isolate and economically subordinate the abused accomplice. Once the two of you might be committed to each other, much more occurs than just informal dating. Happn is an try at bridging our real-life interactions with a digital dating space.
Footnote 15 On this research, men involved in same-intercourse and bisexual relationship reported greater rates of sexual violence victimization than males concerned solely in heterosexual relationships. Sign up for our e-publication and receive a free chapter from the hit guide, The Relationship Manifesto, by Lisa Anderson. Johnson, for instance, has described four varieties of dating violence: intimate (patriarchal) terrorism, widespread couple violence, violent resistance and mutual violent management. For instance: You could have mentioned it and have decided not to have a dedicated relationship, only casual relationship. Before dating evolved, a man would call upon a girl in her residence, as proven in this 1882 engraving published in Harper's Weekly. Video courting techniques of the Nineteen Eighties and Nineties particularly, the place customers gave a efficiency on (typically VHS ) video, which was viewable by different clients, normally in personal, in the same facility.
Footnote 33 Specific options of interactions that might contribute to courting violence have been identified. Past utilizing these sites as a device for researching potential companions, some 15{bc020e5951a7392f6726653c3cdf58237eefb03f1707022ee3eaea58f98ac697} of SNS users with current dating expertise have asked somebody out on a date utilizing a social networking web site. The more passive and disengaged singles are in relationship and relationships, the much less ardour they really feel (including considerably to the problem). Whatever the reason on your dating and relationship dissatisfaction, there are most likely four underlying beliefs which might be driving your emotions, behaviors, and disconnections. At the same time as online daters have largely constructive opinions of the method, many have had unfavorable experiences utilizing online relationship. Sexual abuse in relationship relationships happens as a result of we cannot management our sexual urges. It says that one out of each three couples who start courting become involved in an intimate relationship.

Antitrust Lawsuit Alleges Proposed Merger Will Raise Healthcare Costs
Chicago — Attorney General Lisa Madigan today joined with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) in seeking to block the proposed merger of two of the largest hospital systems in the Chicago area, Advocate Health Care Network (Advocate) and NorthShore University Health System (NorthShore). The health systems are the two preeminent competitors in northern Cook County and southern Lake County, and if the merger were to proceed, it would be the largest hospital system in that area.
The FTC issued an administrative complaint on December 18, 2015 alleging the combination of Advocate and NorthShore would create a system with more than 55 percent of the relevant market, allowing the merged system to raise prices for inpatient services.
Today, Madigan and the FTC filed a complaint in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, seeking a preliminary injunction to prevent the parties from completing the merger, pending a full antitrust review in the FTC administrative proceeding.
The lawsuit alleges the merger would substantially reduce competition in the suburban Chicago North Shore area, increasing costs for inpatient hospital services provided to commercial payers and their insured members. The increased costs would be paid by employers and their employees. Its also alleged that decreased competition would mean the merged system would have less incentive to improve its service offerings and quality of care.
The loss of competition between these two already large and successful hospital systems would be costly to patients on a variety of levels, Madigan said. With fewer hospitals competing for patients on the North Shore, healthcare costs will inevitably rise.
Bureau Chief Robert Pratt and Senior Assistant Attorney General Blake Harrop are handling the case for Madigans Antitrust Bureau.

White dot syndromes are a heterogenous group of disorders affecting the outer retina, retinal pigment epithelium, and choroid. They have many distinctive and shared clinical features and can vary significantly in visual prognosis. Their pathogenesis is not completely known but many infectious and non-infectious etiologies have been proposed. There can be significant variability and overlap in the clinical presentation. Also, masquerade syndromes such as syphilis, sarcoidosis, leukemia/lymphoma can have similar manifestations. Because of the non-specificity of the clinical exam, often times clinicians perform multiple diagnostic tests to confirm and rule-out other diagnoses. In this study, we attempt to evaluate the yield of diagnostics in the work-up of white dot syndromes.
This study is a retrospective review of consecutive patients identified with a clinical diagnosis of a white dot syndrome (Acute Posterior Multifocal Placoid Pigment Epitheliopathy, Serpigenous Choroiditis, Multiple Evanescent White Dot Syndrome, Birdshot Choroidopathy, Multifocal choroiditis, Punctate Inner Choroidopathy) at 2 major university centers: Emory Eye Center and Casey Eye Institute. Charts were reviewed for diagnostic testing performed and diagnostic yield was calculated.
Eighty-five patients were identified. Sixty-eight percent were female. The mean age was 44.9 years. A total of 404 laboratory and radiographic tests were performed of which 11.1% had a positive diagnostic yield. An average of 4.5 tests were performed per patient. The most common tests ordered were a complete blood count and metabolic panel. The highest diagnostic yield was found with HLA-A29 DNA typing to confirm the diagnosis of birdshot choriodopathy (yield- 91%). RPR, FTA-ABS, PPD, and ACE were ordered in 52, 45, 44, and 41 patients, respectively. Of these, only 1 patient had a reactive PPD.
Laboratory and radiographic testing for white dot syndromes were of low diagnostic yield with the exception of HLA-A29 testing for birdshot choroidopathy. Although diagnoses such as syphilis, tuberculosis, and sarcoidosis should be considered in these cases, diagnostic testing should be ordered when clinical suspicion is high. Consideration should be given for limited workups for these patients.

Pain is our bodys way of telling us that something that we are doing or a condition that we are experiencing is
not right and is harmful to our livelihood.
Everybody experiences pain, but some people suffer from chronic pain that can actually limit the things that
they can do in their lives. While some people turn to pharmaceutical drugs in order to ward off the symptoms of
chronic pain, others seek alternative ways of treatment in order to lessen the sensation.
In this article, well give you a basic idea of some ways that people work towards keeping their levels of pain
under control without the use of drugs.
Exercise is one thing that has been shown to lessen the amount of pain that an individual experiences. Many
people that are experiencing high doses of pain shy away from exercise, feeling that it will only aggravate the
problems that they are experiencing. On the contrary, however, exercise has actually been shown to be beneficial to
those who are in a chronic pain condition.
In nature, our bodies were designed so that we would have to be constantly moving regardless of the condition of
our health, so its an important thing to consider when you are suffering from pain and you feel like you should
just lay in bed all day. Over a long period of inactivity, the body will begin to degenerate and you will
experience problems such as muscle loss, a lower bone density, and feelings of depression.
Exercise, on the other hand, can be helpful in that it keeps you fit and flexible with strong muscles, bones,
and joints. Thats not to say that if you are completely bedridden, that you should start performing jumping jacks
its important to consider your specific condition when deciding which types of exercise that you would like to
involve yourself in.
If you have a chronic condition, you should speak to your doctor about putting together an exercise program so
that you know that the activities you engage in will be helpful and not harmful in terms of your health. Another
thing that you may want to consider when trying to lessen the pain that you are experiencing is sticking to a
proper diet.
The body needs the right types of nutrients in order to function at the best of its abilities, and
a poor diet can contribute to the symptoms in a major way. Also, if you are overweight, you put yourself at risk
for many other types of problems and you make it harder for your body to function properly.
The pain that you are experiencing may be increased due to the added weight that your body has to
accommodate for. As a general rule, if you are trying to keep a good diet that is helpful to your body, do your
best to eat animal meats sparingly and concentrate on a diet that is rich with fruits and vegetables.
Try some ginkgo biloba, if you are suffering with leg
Fruits and vegetables contain many of the vitamins that our body needs on a daily basis, and are very low in
fat. If you find that you cant meet your dietary needs completely with the foods that you eat, consider
supplementing your diet with a multi-vitamin to ensure that your body gets all that it needs to work at its
Better Your

High School Sports
Boys basketball: Penns Valley drops overtime thriller to Tyrone
Logan Johnson's baseline jumper tied the game up for Penns Valley with five second left in the game but the Rams fell to Tyrone 57-49 in an overtime thriller Monday night.
"It was great high school basketball game," Penns Valley coach Terry Glunt said. "We got down early and I was really excited with the way the boys came back to within one at halftime. We were only down three after three quarters. We had a really nice fourth quarter to tie it up.
"It was back and forth. I'm just glad the boys had the opportunity to play in a great high school basketball game."
The Rams, who suffered their first loss of the season, opened the game with a five-point first quarter but their defense prevailed in the second holding the Golden Eagles (9-3) to just five points. Zach Engle led Penns Valley (8-1) with 17 points, while Dalton Ulmanic (13) and Luke Weaver (11) also had double digit scoring.
Tyrone's Brandon Gripp did all of the damage by scoring a game-high 30 points and was 12 for 14 from the free throw line.
"Brandon Gripp was the league's MVP last year," Glunt said, "we tried our best to hold him down. He is extremely gifted and talented."

Stunning Mauve and Plum Spring Wedding at Hilton Garden Inn
We literally could not imagine our first wedding of the season going any better. Not only did the day go smooth and stress-free, but we had an amazingly fun couple, a perfect spring day, stunning details and a whole lot of awesome dance moves.
Rich & Laurie are the kind of people you want to be friends with. They have a way about them that is kind and inviting. They know how to laugh with (and at) each other and they certainly know how to have a good time.
Everything about this day was absolutely beautiful from the bouquets on wine barrels at the back of the aisle to the customized wine box for Laurie & Rich's notes to each other. The beauty didn't stop there. We stepped outside with the bridal party after the ceremony and were pleasantly surprised with the breathtaking spring blooms that lined the courtyard in front of Hilton Garden Inn. We took advantage of the colors that matched the wedding perfectly and snuck a few sweet moments with the new Mr & Mrs. before heading back to the party.
Just as we expected, Laurie & Rich are surrounded by friends and family who are just as fun as they are. Everyone was having a blast and we were truly entertained by the talent that hit the dance floor. From what we've gotten to know about Rich & Laurie, this day was the perfect representation of who they are and we could not be happier to have been a part of it. Here's to The Stantons and the start to another amazing wedding season!
With the help of an amazing team of vendors, this day was picture perfect. Huge shout out to the people who made the day everything Laurie imagined:
Venue: Brittney at Hilton Garden Inn
Coordinator: Allison from Bee for the Day
Florist: Amanda from Bartz Viviano
Lighting and backdrops: Brittany from Mager Designs
DJ: Owen from Book that DJ
Hair: Ahava Salon
Makeup: Beauty by Billie Jo
Dessert Table: Jane's Cakes & Confections
Invitations: Wedding Paper Divas

This is an emerging story which needs expansion if you wish to EDIT to add information or discuss it in TALK
President Donald Trump's personal attorney, Michael D. Cohen, filed a defamation lawsuit against Fusion GPS, the research firm behind the controversial dossier prepared by a former British spy which suggested Russia had potentially compromising information on Trump and which alluded to possible collusion between his campaign and Moscow.
The dossier portrayed Cohen as a central figure in what it depicted as a possible conspiracy. In a separate lawsuit, Cohen is also suing Buzzfeed, which published the dossier in full exactly a year ago after it had been widely circulated among journalists and politicians in Washington.
Michael Cohen on Twitter
Enough is enough of the #fake #RussianDossier. Just filed a defamation action against @BuzzFeedNews for publishing the lie filled document on @POTUS @realDonaldTrump and me!
In other key developments on the dossier, seen as central to the investigation into possible collusion led by special investigator Robert Mueller:
- Buzzfeed editor-in-chief Ben Smith used a New York Times opinion column to defend his decision — exactly a year ago — to publish the Steele dossier in the public interest.
- Dianne Feinstein, the senior Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee, took the highly unusual step (Washington Post) to publish in full the testimony of the founder of Fusion GPS, Glenn R. Simpson, in which he defended the dossiers validity as well as the motives and skills of former British intelligence agent Christopher Steele.
- Simpson said that they alerted the FBI of the contents of the dossier (Newsweek).
- Feinstein's decision to release the transcript infuriated President Trump who called the move "underhanded" and even "possibly illegal."
Donald J. Trump on Twitter
The fact that Sneaky Dianne Feinstein, who has on numerous occasions stated that collusion between Trump/Russia has not been found, would release testimony in such an underhanded and possibly illegal way, totally without authorization, is a disgrace. Must have tough Primary!
- The dossier alleges Igor Sechin, the head of the Russian-state oil company Rosneft, used a meeting with former campaign adviser Carter Page to advocate for the U.S. to remove economic sanctions on Russia (Newsweek). While Page denied any interaction with Sechin, the House Intelligence committee released testimony where he admitted to meeting with the Putin-backed oil tycoon.
- Earlier, Republican Senator Chuck Grassley had taken the equally unusual step of seeking a criminal investigation of Steele, alleging he had lied to the FBI over his contacts with the news media about the dossier.
- A new report by Senate Democrats, being published later today and previewed here by the New York Times, says Russian interference in the 2016 election fits into a pattern of meddling over nearly two decades. The report tracks Russian efforts in 19 countries and offers more than 30 recommendations to safeguard the American electoral process.
- During a news conference on Wednesday, President Trump said that it "seems unlikely" that he'd give an interview to Robert Mueller, the special counsel investigating the possible coordination between Trump's campaign and the Russian government (BBC). This marks a change from his statement last year when he said he would be willing to talk to Mueller under oath.

Hello lovelies!
So these days, many countries around the world (so does Greece), celebrate Mardi Gras and the Carnival! As the so sweet Andrews Sisters used to say in one of their songs "life is like a Mardi Gras". But what is really the Mardi Gras? 🎉
Mardi Gras refers to the Carnival celebrations, beginning on or after the Christian feasts of Epiphany and culminating one day before Ash Wednesday. Mardi Gras is French for "Fat Tuesday" reflecting the practice of the last night of eating richer, fatty foods before the ritual fasting of the Lenten season.
So the carnivals and the Mardi Gras are pretty much the same thing! Some of the most well-known carnivals all around the world are the: Tenerife Carnival (Spain), Venice Carnival (Italy), Rio de Janeiro Carnival (Brazil), Binche Carnival (Belgium), Mardi Gras (New Orleans, USA), Cadiz Carnival (Spain), Oruro Carnival (Bolivia), Viareggio Carnival (Italy), Trinidad and Tobago Carnival (Trinidad), Sitges Carnival (Spain), Las Palmas de Gran Canaria Carnival (Gran Canaria), Ivrea Carnival (Italy), Torelló Carnival (Spain), Antroxu, Asturias (Spain), Notting Hill Carnival (London)! ❤
Something that you might not know about Mardi Gras:
King Cake is only eaten during Mardi Gras.
Available only during the Mardi Gras season, king cake is typically made with brioche dough. Braided and laced with cinnamon, the dough is then glazed with purple, green and gold sugar or covered in icing in those same Mardi Gras colors. What really sets king cake apart from other desserts, however, is the small plastic baby hidden inside. Whoever finds the baby in his or her slice must buy the next cake or perhaps host the next party.
Do you guys celebrate the Carnival or the Mardi Gras in your country? If so, in what way?
Thank you so much for reading darlings! I hope you liked this post.
Have a wonderful new week full of positivity and i'll see you all on my next post!
A Vintage Athenian💋

If you want to begin a company, maybe you've heard of the term franchising" bandied about, but aren't genuinely confident what it means or how it operates. I am at the moment trying to get my money back from a franchisor but they are using an high-priced lawyer to steer clear of paying me what i am owed and utilizing the old chestnut of i owe them funds for lost management fees for the duration of the franchise agreement. Non-competitors Clause – used to avoid a franchisee from getting into into a similar line of business as the franchisor during the term of the franchise agreement or for s set period of time soon after it. Salt Lake City has a lot to offer its residents – the city is generally ranked amongst some of the leading locations to live and work in the U.S. Salt Lake City also provides a tiny company opportunity that individuals all through the United States are jumping into.
Speak to franchisees, licensees, or dealers who are currently in business with the organization you are interested in. The major three spots on Entrepreneur's ranking of the highest new franchises all attend organizations that concentrate on frozen desserts: Kona Ice, Menchie's and Orange Leaf yogurt. EBITDA is profit of the business assuming the Owner/CEO/President receives fair industry compensation from the costs of the organization. Long ago, I also looked into the feasibility of possessing my personal cleaning business by means of Franchise but didn't actually push it. I am not shutting down the thought yet, perhaps just not the correct time but. Eventually the absence of a clear strategy had brought the OFW's and OFW-m to trial and error where most have landed back to square a single.
When you open a franchise business you will have independence, but you will not be alone. They will be your very best resource for understanding a franchise business's correct profit potential. I am interested with your water refill company and I would like to have a franchise. In b2b the success of firms you serve means a lot to the achievement of your personal company. Achieve BIR Form 1901 and submit the identical, together with the requirements, to the Revenue District Workplace getting jurisdiction over the registered address of the company establishment. Clients are the lifeblood of your company, and personnel are responsible not only for operating efficiently but for dealing with clients and being the face of your enterprise. Nonetheless, it is a less high-priced approach than one expanding the business by way of a new outlet in a distinct place.
The franchise fee is $32,500 for a full line coffee shop, $16,250 for a kiosk location or $5,000 for a cart. All you require to do is be educated and begin to handle and be the boss of your franchised business. Tiny enterprise homeowners and entrepreneurs longing for new enterprise possibilities generally marvel the way to expand their company and the way to get a lot of revenues.
Individuals need franchise consultants in locating the proper franchise business chance for them as it involves hell lot of research and understanding of market. Men and women who are in the appear out for enterprise to franchise want a business that has a established track record of achievement. Economic authorities will help you create a economic model that contains cash flow projections and your royalty structure.

Street style and the "texture" style is all the rage for this winter. Want to coordinate your baggy sweater and ankle boots with this style and be time-efficient and economical? Banner News has some tips and tricks for you.
When it comes to fashion, you might be thinking: "I don't have the time for that. I work 20 hours per week and am a full time student." Banner News did an email interview with Jazmine Alaniz, President of the DMACC Ankeny Fashion Club. She said: "Street Style" is very popular this season, and with that being said, to the pull off the perfect street look, it doesn't take time at all. Sweaters, sweats, joggers, and oversized tees are essentials for the street style craze. Whether are rolling out of bed 10 minutes before your 8 am, or simply that you just don't feel like getting "dressed up," throw on some sneakers and go. On colder days this outfit can be paired with a bomber jacket or oversized denim jacket."
(photo credit:Forever 21.com)
With the tight time schedule being taken care of, budget will be the next consideration. Alaniz's advice is "Fashion trends are always recycling so don't be afraid to raid your mom's, grandma's or older sister's closets for the perfect staple pieces. When on a budget, thrift stores and re-sale stores will become your best friends. Don't be shy to dig around. One man's trash, is another persons treasure! If these aren't your style, affordable retailers to browse through are; Forever 21, H&M, Fashion Nova, and Target!"
Now, you have your time worked out and budget issue solved. The frigid Iowa weather probably will be your next obstacle. Alaniz gave her opinion on how to keep warm and fashionable at the same time. She said,"With frigid winds and less sunlight right around the corner, stock up on cozy sweaters and cardigans. This season texture is in and is all the rave. Anything from knit, to tweed, velvet, and corduroy are just the fabrics your closet is asking for. Another craze this season is denim! Grab your favorite jeans and pair them with a cozy sweater, or on an even colder day, this look would be great to add a denim jacket or even a leather jacket!This fall and winter those boots are ready to walk, and is the perfect staple piece to pair with just about anything!"
Banner News also interviewed Emma, a lead sales associate at Express, which located at North Grand Mall in Ames. (Emma preferred not to use her last name.) She said, "We do have a couple of really awesome winter coats right now. We have the blacks and grays that help keep it a little bit more business causal but also keep you warm. They are more of a pea coat style. They are a little bit longer which are super nice for Iowa winters. We also have some really nice new wool scarves in. Another tip I would say is definitely don't be scared to layer it up, like a nice button down underneath a blouse." The Express store's hours are Mondays through Saturdays: 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., on Sundays: 12 p.m. to 5 p.m.

What kind of pictures are your preteens taking and receiving? Ask them to show you. Are you talking with them about what's appropriate and what isn't when it comes to sharing images and videos?
Explain the dangers of sexting and let them know if they do send something they later regret sending, they need to let a trusted adult help them make the situation right. The important thing is that they know they're not alone.

It has also been very warm recently, with the outside temperature hovering in the region of -4°C to -5°C, and with very little wind. The snow is quite wet and heavy and there's absolutely no contrast. It does look very pretty though when it covers everything!

Welcome Virgo! This New Moon is all about returning back to the day to day and how your life is organized. What have you put on hold and are now ready to get back to? Time to focus on the realistic and down to earth path. This might cause some natural tensions with the creativity energies in your world. Can you find balance between the practical and the creative aspects where dreams exist? Letting go of the how's and letting your intuition guide the practical steps will open the door to finding the magical in the mundane. The new moon will give you a chance to review your to do list and recognize the potency of the routine and mundane parts of life.
Virgo is the moon of service and using your skills to get things done. Virgo moon will shine light on the path where your natural gifts, and sense of service and calling. What is missing in your life? What are the steps to get there? No detail is to small – sharpen your pencil and get out your journal and write it all down. This moon will heighten your ability to accurately discern what is important and what is not.
Over the next 29 days set an intention to get in touch with your practical side and that spirit within that tends to your environment. Virgo calls you to simplify. Identify what is ending or what needs to end and your intention to end it. It could be anything from the habit where you become self critical, to work that no longer serves you, or even relationships. Are there places where you have gotten over extended? Roll up your sleeves and get rid of the clutter. Time to create order and neatness in your environment. Focus on restoration in all aspects of your world. Think about your diet, exercise and other ways you create wellness for yourself. Time to let go of the chaos of the day to day and create a well-oiled machine to grow the ease of life.
What have you struggled with lately that you need to change? Do a ritual that will help you mark the ending. Once done it is the time to make some plans and to set the stage for reaping the rewards of a new beginnings, little or big, in approximately two weeks' time after the Full Moon occurs. When something ends, there is always a new space created for something new to begin.
Intentions perfect for the New Moon in Virgo
- Focusing on the here and now
- Letting go of resistance to "cleaning up" the past
- Creating effective systems and order
- Simplifying and letting go of clutter
- Embracing practical wisdom
- Attending task and handling details
- Completing details and tasks
Now set your intention and cultivate its growth by developing a new moon practice.
During the New Moon in Virgo August 25: Form your intention: see it and commit to act on it.
What are your natural gifts, and sense of service and calling? Visualize it and commit to embrace it through the cycle of growth. Then sit quietly and notice how it feels, is it emotionally fulfilling? This is the time to be clear about your goal without anxiety about how you will accomplish it. New Moon energy is about trusting your self and your potential to manifest. It is the time to evoke positive acceptance of your emotions and let in the support of others.
During the Full Moon on September 9: Time to integrate your intent and move into action
How does your intent contribute to your wholeness? What has come to light about your intention? Time begin and take an exhilarating step forward. Time to act on how you have visualized and imagined your intention within your life. Build simple wishes that support emotional closeness, feelings, and nurturing.
During the Dark Moon on September 23: Let go and release
Time to remove the old worries, stories and habits that you've outgrown. Embrace and release the ways you have sabotaged yourself in the past. Ask your self "what do I need to release?" "What do I choose to take with me into the next cycle?" Time to leave behind anything from the past that is no longer serves your new vision. Take time to meditate and gently heal using what the Full Moon has brought to light.

Single-Serving Shrimp and Grits/
I've had the idea for this dish for a while, but just got around to making it. I don't know why it took me so long because the actual recipe cooks up in less than 15 minutes.
This single girl/poor college kid/quick dinner dish totally elevates all the scenarios I just mentioned. It's gourmet, cheap but super easy and definitely fits the bill for a satisfying dinner. Or brunch if you want to get fancy on a lazy Sunday morning.
I recently discovered you can buy a box of instant grits just like instant oatmeal. Microwave oatmeal is a regular part of my daily routine, but now grits, oooooh man! Growing up I remember mom always asking, grits or oatmeal? It was always the decision between sweet or savory? Really because I would either douse my grits with a pound of butter or my oatmeal with a cup of brown sugar. The only problem was that I had to wait near 20 minutes for my breakfast to be ready. I don't have that kind of patience anymore, so hello to instant grits!
Microwave grits, a little cheese and some frozen corn and shrimp make for an ulti single girl meal! The recipe is clearly for a single serving, but it would be super easy to double or triple.
Single Serving Shrimp and Grits
serves one..obviously
1 package of instant grits
some type of cheese-Parmesan, Gouda, cheddar etc.
1 Tbsp. olive oil or butter
6 frozen or fresh shrimp
1/4 cup frozen corn
fresh minced garlic
cayenne pepper
salt and pepper
juice of 1/4 lemon
fresh cilantro
If using frozen, make sure to first thaw your shrimp. I do this by running them under luke warm water until thawed.
Heat your olive oil or butter in a small pan over medium heat. Add your corn and shrimp to the pan, throw in some garlic and a little bit of cayenne. Don't go to crazy on the cayenne, unless you like things spicy spicy! While your shrimp is cooking, microwave the grits according to package directions. It's probably something like add 1/2 cup of water and microwave for 1 minute.
Stir in the cheese and season your grits with salt and pepper to taste. (I like mine really salty!) By now your shrimp should be cooked though. Take off the heat and squeeze lemon juice over the shrimp.
Pile the shrimp and corn over your cheese grits and garnish with chopped cilantro!

Non-public sector
While the proportion of women CEO's decreased slightly between 2013-14 (15.7%) and 2014-15 (15.4%), the proportion of women who were key management personnel increased from 26.1% to 27.4%. Women chairs of governing bodies/boards also increased in this time, from 12% to 14.2% (see Table 6.2).
In January 2016, women made up 30.5% of federal parliamentarians, exactly the same as January 2015.

There continued to be higher proportions of women in the Senate (38.2%) than in the House of Representatives (26.7%).
In January 2016, 33% of state/territory parliamentarians were women (up by almost 11 percentage points since 2001).

Spring Break here got off to a baaaaad start! The weather was horrible! It poured for the first week and a half! We had planned a camping trip with some friends of ours and we were getting mighty nervous about camping in the weather, BUT, we ended up getting the BEST weather possible! The nights were chilly but the days were gorgeous! It reached a balmy 18* celcius for us. The kids even had a bit of a sunburn! We thoroughly enjoyed a break from the rain and the routine of life! We camped close to home in the beautiful Ft. Langley. We were only a quick drive from home, a Starbucks and a movie theatre (for a surprise we took all the kids to see The Lorax). We had a wonderful time relaxing, walking to town and visiting. Our trailer's an oldie, but we sure love it! We have made some wonderful memories with it!

Release Date: Oct 14, 2003
Record label: Maverick
Genre(s): R&B, Singer-Songwriter
Love has sent Me'shell Ndegeocello out of this world: her fifth album is an extended session of foreplay in outer space. Passion drips from every utterance as she offers thanks to the sun and the universe which swirl around the object of her affections. She opines that lust has freed her, but in fact it seems to have inhibited her imagination and rendered her speechless.

As with many people I love the fall and everything about it. Large comfy sweaters come back in vogue, apple picking with the family, and, of course, the infamous Pumpkin Spice Lattes are just a few of the many reasons that the fall season has a special hold on many of our hearts. But to often I find this season too fleeting, it never can come soon enough and to often yields to the winter too easily. But with this beautiful pattern by Diana Rozenshteyn I've found a way to hold on autumn for just a little while longer.
This beautiful scarf was made with a mixture of two lovely Shibui Yarn; Pebble and Linen in the colors: Poppy and Scale respectively. These two colors blended together perfectly to create a lovely color that will be reminiscent of the fall foliage even long after it is gone. This project took about 30 hours to complete and I would rate it at about an intermediate level. The techniques that were utilized are provisional cast-on, twisted stitches (modified cable), and row counting.
The Yarn Attic featured this lovely patter for our September KAL.
This beautiful scarf pattern features leafy side borders and mitered bottom leaf edges. The pattern is available in both written and chart form. I recommend a DK to worsted weight yarn for this pattern. When knitting this piece I decided to mix together two Shibui Yarns for a greater depth of color. When mixing together various Shibui Yarns it is called "Shibui Mix". Mixing together different yarn weights and fibers is a lot of fun to play with and can lead to beautiful, and surprising FO's.

Frank Moss (lawyer)
Frank Moss (March 16, 1860 – June 5, 1920) was an American lawyer, reformer and author. He was involved in many of the reform movements in New York City shortly before the start of the 20th century up until his death. As a longtime assistant to District Attorney Charles S. Whitman, he was involved in several high-profile criminal cases such as the Rosenthal murder trial in which police detective Charles Becker was found guilty of murder and executed.

|March 16, 1860
Cold Spring, New York, United States
|June 5, 1920 (aged 60)
Manhattan, New York , US
|Alma mater
|New York City College
|Known for
|Political activist and social reformer who served as assistant to District Attorney Charles Whitman during the Rosenthal murder trial
|Political party
|Elva E. Bruce
Frank Moss was born in Cold Spring, New York in 1860 and moved to New York City as a child. Attending New York City College, he became involved in "vice crusades" and other reform movements while studying to pass the bar. Early in his legal career, he held important positions such as president of the City Vigilance League and president of the Society for the Prevention of Crime. He was also a member of the Union League Club and Republican Club.[1]
While council for Dr. Charles H. Parkhurst, Moss helped police in closing down gambling dens belonging to the On Leong Tong in Chinatown. Much of the information was supplied by Mock Duck, a rival underworld figure of Tom Lee and the On Leongs, and who quickly assumed control of these establishments after they were closed. In appreciation, Mock Duck replaced the traditional joss in the Hip Sing Tong House with a crayon portrait of Moss.[2]
Moss first came to prominence during the Lexow and Mazet investigations, as an associate and chief council respectively, where he established himself as an aggressive prosecutor and investigator. While cross-examining Tammany Hall leader Richard Croker during the Mazet inquiry, Moss was able to provoke him into stating the now famous statement admitting his corruption: "I am working for my pocket all the time, just like you, Mr. Moss".[1]
In 1897, he succeeded Theodore Roosevelt as president of the Board of Police Commissioners. In 1901, during Seth Low and William Travers Jerome's campaign against the city's red light districts, Moss famously addressed the court in a speech blaming Croker for the existence of white slavery and forced prostitution. He and Jerome became close friends after the trial, Moss working tirelessly on the case to the point of exhaustion, however the two would later have a falling out when the two noted attorneys faced each other during the trial of John M. Wisker in 1902.[1]
In the fall of 1909, Moss was unexpectedly chosen by District Attorney Charles S. Whitman to become his first assistant. Although Moss was a Republican, he was not a particular favorite of machine politics and Herbert Parsons, political boss of New York County, was reportedly displeased with his appointment. While under Whitman, Moss successfully prosecuted the four members of the Lenox Avenue Gang accused of murdering gambler Herman Rosenthal. It was partly on evidence gained at this trial that he was able to greatly assist Whitman in proving that police detective Charles Becker hired the four gunmen to kill Rosenthal resulting in his conviction and execution.[1]
A devout churchgoer, Moss was an active member of the congregation of St. James Methodist Episcopal Church. He served on the board of directors for the New York Church Extension Society for a number of years and his son, Reverend Arthur Moss, was on the Board of Foreign Missions of the Methodist Church. In November 1919, Moss underwent surgery at Roosevelt Hospital and suffered a relapse four months later from which he would never fully recover. In poor health for the last few months of his life, he died of heart disease at his East 127th Street home on the night of June 5, 1920.
He and his wife Elva E. Bruce had two children, Arthur and Elizabeth Moss.[1]

In June 2017, on the second annual trip, a group of Police Judo volunteers paid on their own travel expenses and under the leadership of VPD Cst. Al Kussat and his wife Naomi, embarked on the incredibly rewarding experience of running weeklong Police Judo sport activities along with delivering drug awareness education to over 1,000 youth in the Mexican border towns of Tecate and Ensenada. An incredible trip to the top of the Baja, filled with some amazing highlights including meeting government officials in Ensenada, and working on a plan to provide the kids of Tecate with a sports stadium so we can return and run Police Judo camps. Kudos to all the participants, as this is self-funded and a trip driven by volunteer work.
