OUT TO LUNCH finds economist and Tulane finance professor Peter Ricchiuti conducting business New Orleans style: over lunch at Commander's Palace restaurant. Each week Peter invites guests from the New Orleans business renaissance to join him. The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, and Inc magazine have all named New Orleans the best city in the USA to be an entrepreneur. Out to Lunch is the cafeteria of the new New Orleans entrepreneurial movement. You can also hear the show on WWNO 89.9FM.

There are very few things that you pay for every month, and hope that you get nothing back for your money. Except insurance.
Nobody enjoys paying their insurance premium. But you know your insurance agent is right. You need it. Which is where the old classic Frank Crumit song comes from, "There is no one with endurance like the man who sells insurance." (If you don't know that song it's worth clicking on the link.) Even before Frnk Crumit recorded that song, since 1933, Gillis Ellis and Baker have been selling insurance here in New Orleans.
One of the products you can buy from your insurance agent these days is cyber insurance. The President of Gillis Ellis Baker, Anderson Baker, joining Peter Ricchiuti for this edition of Out to Lunch, explains why you need it and how much you might expect to pay for it.
Attorney Geoff Elkins wrote the book on cybersecurity for business. It's called The Architecture of Cybersecurity. Geoff, an attorney with a certified specialization in privacy protection, is leading the charge in both a local and wider national and international understanding of the legal context of cyber-crime and its twin brother, cyber-security.
If you own a business and you think probably nobody's going to bother hacking you, well, you might need to rethink that.

Upcoming Games
Barons Strike Oil against Admirals
Goalie Atte Engren turned aside 34 shots but it wasn't enough as the Milwaukee Admirals dropped a 3-2 game to the Oklahoma City Barons in Oklahoma City, OK.
Leading 2-0, Milwaukee got into penalty trouble in the latter half of the second period and allowed three tallies to the Barons, the team with the best record in the AHL.
Milwaukee scored a power play goal to open the scoring at 9:56 of the first period. Kyle Wilson controlled the puck atop the right circle. He passed the puck to goal line for Chris Mueller. Mueller then fed a pass from the right post to the left circle that defenseman Victor Bartley slapped into the net past goalie David LeNeveu. It was Bartley's sixth goal of the season and fifth on the power play.
The Admirals claimed a 2-0 lead at 9:14 of the second period when Jani Lajunen scored his third goal of the season and second goal in as many nights. A Barons clearing attempt from behind the goal was intercepted above the left circle by Milwaukee's Kevin Henderson. Henderson sent a wristshot on goal that LeNeveu tried to steer to the left corner. However, Lajunen knocked it out of mid-air for the goal.
Oklahoma City got on the board at 10:30 of the second period with a 5-on-3 power play goal by defenseman Bryan Rodney. Henderson was in the box for Milwaukee via a tripping infraction at 9:41. Just four seconds later, Teemu Laakso joined Henderson on a delay of game penalty when he fired the puck into the seats.
The Barons tied the game with another power play goal at 12:58 of the second period. This time, the penalty was on Admirals goalie Atte Engren for delay of game as he played the puck into the seats. Rodney fed a pass from his blue line to Philippe Cornet who got behind the Admirals defense and scored on the breakaway.
With just 1:06 left in the second period, Oklahoma City took its first lead when the puck bounced off Scott Ford's skate behind the Admirals goal and found its way to Teemu Hartikainen on the right post for stuff into the net.
Milwaukee returns to the Bradley Center Friday, Feb. 24 to host Abbotsford at 7 pm. National recording artist the Dropkick Murphys will perform in a post-game concert on February 24th sponsored by Toyota, Time Warner Cable, Lee Jeans, & Coors Light.

Blah blah blah insert sob story about acne. Insert sob story here there everywhere.
Ok I don't know how exactly how to start but here. I DONT KNOW WHAT LOTION IS GEWD FOR MAH FACE! Like I don't know if I want something that has salicylic acid/benzyol peroxide in it to compact acne (because I have/had loads and just want it to be over with).
At this point I just wanted something simple. So….. one day I walked into this store and made a impulsive purchase and I got…
As you can see from the picture, it's EMBYOLISSE! So let me put all the info out, I currently work in a personal care shop (not telling you which because I'm paranoid like that!) and many makeup artists have come in and repeatedly bought this brand. I was helping out an artist who had a list of requirements for a show/class/idek and this lotion was on the list! So.. basically I got a bottle and let me tell you… it does not do amazing things.
LMAO! It's a really nice lotion though! It says it will moisturize the heck out of your skin, and it does! This right here is my second bottle! And surprisingly I didn't break out with those pimples you get when you are trying a new product. So… yay?
Well I did take a few more pictures for y'all!
The only thing that is worrisome to me is that in the ingredients list "PARFUM" is the last listed item. However there really is not flowery scent or anything. It might just be listed as "fragrance free" which means that the item can contain ingredients that will give it a neutral scent. blah oh the tricky things that the companies do to us!
Looking up other people's reviews via a simple google search has given me mixed opinions. Some people love it and others hate it.
Final Thoughts: It's not an HG status product and can be pretty pricy esp if you are purchasing it outside of France. It's really not something you absolutely need to try either! For me it does the job and I might be sticking to it until I find something even better.

Morning guys!
So its almost weekend and today, as every other day of the week, I woke up early for my 7:00 am gym workout, although to be honest, I nearly fell asleep while doing the step machine (I guess I wasn't pushing it as hard as I should have!)
As you could see in my last post, Autumn is now in its full force here, I don't really mind because I know that the super cold weather coming our way is inevitable, so why make a big fuss about it (Im sure I will in upcoming posts tho :P )
Anyway, I got the most amazing sleeve for my MacBook and the cutest black purse via KIPLING 2 days ago. I have been searching for the perfect MacBook sleeve and I cant think of anything more perfect for me than this one, I am literally in love with it.
KIPLING is very interested in catering for the chic and fashionable crowd now and I am really loving their new lines, specially their vintage looking leather bags, they are amazing, so far away from the boring bags they used to make a while back, they are really in the game now!.

Germany's foreign minister on Friday urged Russia to save a key arms treaty with the U.S., to prevent a new arms race as a deadline looms.
U.S. President Donald Trump last year announced that the U.S. is going to withdraw from the 1987 Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty because of Russian violations. The United States has said it will exit the treaty in early February if Russia does not end its violations.
German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas, who is visiting Moscow on Friday, called on Russia to destroy the type of missile that the U.S. alleges is in violation of the treaty, saying that he doesn't think that "anyone in Europe would like to see the beginning of a new arms race."
The 1987 treaty between the United States and the Soviet Union bans production, testing and deployment of land-based cruise and ballistic missiles with a range of 500 to 5,500 kilometers (310 to 3,400 miles).
Germany and other European countries are worried about the impending collapse of the treaty because Europe is where the U.S. is likely to deploy the intermediate-range missiles, and Russia has said it would have to respond by targeting the countries where the missiles are based.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on Friday insisted that Russia never violated the treaty, and said U.S. officials have told them that their decision is final and not negotiable.
"We have always wanted to keep the treaty in place," Lavrov told reporters after the talks with Maas. "They (the U.S.) told us during talks in October: 'President Trump's announcement that the U.S. is pulling out of the INF treaty is a done deal, and it should not be considered as an invitation to dialogue.'"

Questions About Resources You Must Know the Answers To
Losing someone is simply one of the hardest thing a person can go through. Focusing on a single task becomes hard to do. And planning their funerals is no exception as well. You have many things to think about but in the current situation, that alone is hard to do. The article below aims to aid you during this difficult time.
First, you need to write down all the important questions in planning a funeral. In this manner, you will be able to see what are the important things to tackle. In addition, writing down the important questions will allow you to identify the unwanted topics and remove them at the same time.
Once you have written all the questions down, the answers can then be prioritized. It does not mean that one question should only have one answer. Again, prioritize each answer and eliminate the non-important ones. Consider everything and forget no topic to make sure everything has been thought off.
The Beginner's Guide to Funerals
In most instances, funeral services will help you plan and with every single task along the way.In most instances, funeral homes will give you options on how would you want your loved one to be buried. In certain times during planning of the event, the funeral home may provide counseling if they deem it necessary for you. But perhaps the most important part is that, you will be offered services of different prices. For families that are on a tight budget, this can mean the world to them. When you are choosing the list of services available, pick the one that is just enough and nothing more. You have many other things to pay for and being wise at this stage can help a lot in the long run. If on the other hand your loved one's final wish was to have the fancier one then you can go for it.
A Beginners Guide To Funerals
The next thing on the list is the legal aspect. An example of this is the estate, and knowing where it should go to. In most cases, you find these things written down in a person's will or testament. If the person has not made a will or has not made it clear in one, then hire a lawyer to do things properly.
The next thing to keep in mind is to exclude your emotions when making your choices. This is indeed asking too much of the relative especially with the current situation. But remember that emotions at the extremes can result in problems when you are making a decision. As much as possible make the decision when your state of mind is at the calmest. Also, it is recommended to have someone with you during decision-making moments to make sure another voice is heard in making the hard choices.

Rally for Safe Streets Scheduled for Friday, May 11
The event will highlight a major intersection which has been marked by recent car crashes.
With support from the offices of Common Council President Ashanti Hamilton and Alderman Khalif Rainey, Northwest Side Community Development Corporation (NWSCDC) is organizing a "Rally for Safe Streets" for Friday, May 11 from 3:00 pm to 4:30 pm at the corner of North 35th Street and West Capitol Drive.
The event will highlight a major intersection which has been marked by recent car crashes. Representatives from the City of Milwaukee, together with residents and other partners, will hold signs urging drivers to slow down and respect the rules of the road.
"We are excited to have the Milwaukee Police Department with us at this event. It is a statement to the new administration and the commitment of Chief Alfonso Morales to work with the community for the safety and protection of all our residents," said President Hamilton.
"At the same time, we want to expand the conversation to include design changes to make intersections like this one safer," said Alderman Rainey. "We need all drivers to recognize the responsibility for safety when they get in the car. We also want to look into engineering solutions that could calm traffic and improve pedestrian crossings."
Building on the success of a similar rally in 2017, NWSCDC is engaging with partners to build support for safer streets in the City of Milwaukee. The Corridor Corp and the City of Milwaukee, including the Promise Zones initiative and the Milwaukee Police Department, are co-sponsoring this event to help raise awareness.
"We are grateful for the neighbors and community partners who are raising their voices for safer streets," said Andrew Haug, Resource Development Manager at NWSCDC. "This isn't just an enforcement issue, we need to take a look at the deadliest intersections and stretches of roads and find engineering or design updates to improve safety."
NWSCDC is a member of the Complete Streets Milwaukee coalition, engaging residents about the value of building safer streets and working for policy updates to prioritize safety for vulnerable road users like people walking, biking, or taking the bus.
"While we are very concerned about difficult intersections like this one at 35th and Capitol, we also want to celebrate and encourage healthy transportation options this summer," said Sarah Bregant, Community Development Specialist at NWSCDC. "Join us on Saturday morning at 10am in Garden Homes Park for the Promise Zones Bike Ride. We'll take an easy five mile family-friendly ride through beautiful neighborhoods near the 30th Street Industrial Corridor and Lincoln Creek."

Message: For sale is a tan, 2005 Jeep Wrangler with 122,XXX miles on it. It has an automatic transmission.
I bought it in 2008 with roughly 33,000 miles on it. I spent 2008 and 2009 using it to commute to college and 2009 through 2013 using it to commute to work in Delaware, so most of the miles I've put on it are highway.
It is currently registered, inspected, and insured.
I am selling because I bought a 2004 Rubicon with a manual trans instead. I've maintained it myself and am sorry to see it go, but I can't justify owning two lol.
The good
-Well maintained truck.
-New battery and starter.
-New windshield.
-Newish soft top
-Practically new 31×10.5×15 all terrain tires
-2.25″ coil spacer lift

The bad
-Body was damaged and paint is mismatched at rear passenger corner (see picture)
-Paint has its fair share of scratches
-Seat covers are pretty worn and sun bleached, but they've been on there since 2008, so the actual seat fabric is still in nice shape.
-Passenger door handle only opens from inside.
– Shocks are on their way out, but I am including a practically new set of Rubicon Express Shocks with hardware.
Feel free to email me if you'd like to come test drive it or if you have any questions.
Thanks for looking.

August 1, 2018 - Combustion of biomass poses a number of problems, particularly in utility scale boilers. The circulating fluidised bed has features that control ash agglomeration, fouling, and corrosion, and therefore make it particularly suitable for biomass applications, with inherent characteristics that favour low emissions. The technology also has considerable potential for scale up, and adoption of greatly improved steam conditions.

Diagnostic and Management of Hyaline Membrane Disease

*Corresponding Author: Daouda Diamane Ndour, Neonatology, Teaching Hospital Dalal Jamm, Dakar, Senegal.
Received: July 05, 2018; Published: July 31, 2018
Citation: Daouda Diamane Ndour and Gueye M. "Diagnostic and Management of Hyaline Membrane Disease". EC Paediatrics 7.8 (2018): 810-819.
Hyaline membrane disease (HMD), more commonly called respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), is one of the first causes of morbidity and mortality in preterm infants.
HMD is characterized by a primitive deficiency in surfactant, synthesized by type II pneumocytes. It is due to the functional insufficiency both quantitative but also qualitative (specific proteins) in surfactant. This is the first pathology to have been successfully treated by exogenous surfactant.
Surfactant which consists of phospholipids and protein is necessary for the formation of functional residual capacity (FRC), which is the key to gas exchange. The surfactant deficiency causes a hyaline material to be deposited on the surface of the alveoli that remain collapsed or unstable, causing atelectasis and shunt effect.
Its incidence is inversely proportional to gestational age, with no absolute correlation between the degree of lung maturation and gestational age.
It is characterized by respiratory distress in the early hours of life related to the increase in the elastic pulmonary retraction forces and a collapse of compliance. The radiological image is characteristic (chest retractions, alveolar syndrome with reticulogranular pattern and air bronchogram).
Its prevention uses corticosteroids.
Treatment for HMD may include:
• Mechanical breathing machine,
• Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) which is associated with a lower risk of the occurrence of bronchopulmonary dysplasiaor (BPD) or death in preterm infants,
• Surfactant replacement with artificial surfactant.
• Mechanical breathing machine,
• Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) which is associated with a lower risk of the occurrence of bronchopulmonary dysplasiaor (BPD) or death in preterm infants,
• Surfactant replacement with artificial surfactant.
We propose from a literature review to take a look at the different aspects of this pathology increasingly common with the increase in the number of premature births.

This post shares how to DIY a fun dress up trunk that can inspire years of imaginative play!
Morning routines in our home consist of waking up, drinking milk, brushing teeth, and looking for the best set of heels to wear in my closet. Actually, that's my toddler's routine, and she's been doing it since about age one. Not even two yet, this girl has mastered a runway strut! After regularly watching The Wiggles, she's also a fan of their song "Dressing Up in Style" where they sing "dressing up is so much fun, you can dress like anyone, you can use any clothes you find!" So for her birthday this year, I crafted a dress-up trunk that should get her through the next decade of imaginative costuming.
Dressing up let's a kid live out their imagination by creating a costume to go along with a story they've created. I also love the art appeal of a dress-up trunk as it can be a catalyst for performance art, where the artist uses them-self in a live performance instead of traditional art mediums like painting or sculpture. Example, I've witnessed my kid put on a cool hat and flower lei, then proceed to play her toy piano with her feet and quietly scream with her eyes closed. It was an amazing moment.
Read on to get some ideas for how to make and fill up your dress-up trunk!
First thing you'll need is a large container of some sort, such as a footlocker, cedar chest, or even a large plastic storage box. To save some money, search for a sturdy trunk at a thrift store, or a garage sale. Sometimes you can get lucky on Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, or eBay. I had a gut feeling that this would be a regularly used "toy" for years to come, with the potential of being used by the next generation, so I opted for the footlocker, and found a pretty decent sale on it at Target.
To add more storage options to the trunk, I put some baskets inside it to hold little things, acquired via a dollar store! I used an over the door shoe organizer to add a pocket feature to the lid. I cut it to fit the lid perfectly, and used mounting tape to put it up. It looked great, until my toddler tried to pull some glasses from the pocket and it fell off. So— add drops of superglue to the mounting tape and then secure the shoe organizer pockets to that.
You could tilt the footlocker so it sits up, and create a mini closet by adding a rod for hangers. I chose to go with the classic horizontal trunk style because I plan on filling it with more clothing and accessories over the next several years.
Now that you have your dress-up box set up, it's time to fill it with all the things!!! But what things?
Halloween can be everyday with a box full of costumes! Save your kids Halloween costumes and keep them in the dress-up trunk. I even added some of my old costumes. Oversized? Put a belt on it!
Melissa & Doug have a whole set of dress-up costumes ranging from construction worker to pediatric nurse that can be a fun addition. I got a few of those from Toys'R'Us at their recent, unfortunate, closing sale.
You can find costumes on sale at party stores the day after Halloween to stock up too. And if you dabble with a sewing machine, here's an opportune time to create a plethora of adorable costumes!
Need more costume ideas?
- Superhero cape
- Ballerina tutu
- Cartoon Character (Maggie Simpson, Elmo, Moana, PJ Masks)
- Doctor scrubs
- Animal suit (Tiger, Panda, Monkey, Dog, Chicken)
- Occupation (Chef, Fireman, Policeman, Artist)
- Pirate
- King or Queen
Has your kid started pulling your clothes off of hangers in your closet? Cute, they want to be you! Could your closet use a little lightening? Maybe it's a good time to clear out all some clothes for donation. While you are sifting through the clothing clutter, maybe you'll find a few pieces that would be fun for your kid to play with. Shirts, dresses, shorts, skirts, jackets, vests, the size doesn't matter. They'll love it because they've seen you wear it.
A couple shirts that I've had for decades won't fit me the way they magically used to pre-baby. But I'm not ready to fully part with them, so I added them to the dress-up trunk and perhaps someday she'll rock them in her regular wardrobe.
My mom had a dress like that too. She wore it regularly back in the early 70's, held onto it, it ended up in my dress-up drawer when I was a kid, and then in the mid 90's, I wore it paired with Doc Martins. It's still held up, so now it's in my kid's dress-up trunk, and maybe she'll promote it to her official closet in high school. ;P
A variety of masks and funny glasses are always a good time in a dress-up trunk. They can transform a look, and take your kid's imaginative play to a whole 'nother level.
Top off those dress up outfits with some fun hat options. Add a bunch from your own collection, dollar store, or even thrift stores. Cute headbands and tiaras are also classic dress-up items.
My kid loves wearing my shoes, so I added a few pairs that I really don't wear anymore to her trunk. These are hands down, her most favorite part of the entire dress-up trunk (at the moment.) You could also find kid friendly dress-up heels at retailers. Funny slippers, like monster feet, are a great addition too!
Bags, bags, bags! Old purses, make-up bags, shopping bags, gift bags, briefcase, computer bag, etc. Any bag is a fashionable must have when completing a luxurious outfit for a night on the town with your best stuffed animal.
So glad I never got rid of all my costume jewelry, as they now belong exclusively to the dress-up trunk collection. Here's another chance for you to clean up your own closet and add a variety of necklaces, rings, bracelets, and even scarves to add another level of accessories.
Honestly, my toddler isn't into wigs, YET. I just happen to have several from my own past Halloween costumes, and I added them to the trunk so she has more options to play around with whenever she'd like. This is another accouterment you can pick up for a bit cheaper during post-Halloween sales.
More fun things you can add to the dress-up trunk to provide a variety of options:
- Belt
- Wallet with pretend credit/business cards
- Pretend makeup kit
- Gloves
- Pretend doctor kit
- Wings
- Toy phone
- Magic wand
- Brush/comb
- Hair accessories
- Fake tattoos
I hope this list was helpful in your quest for creating a dress-up trunk for your little ones. What did you add to yours? What are some of your kids' favorite costumes to wear? I'd love to hear about it in the comments!

Keeping your employees motivated is an important component of your company's culture. Their attitude can set the tone for your office dynamic and it is necessary for them to grow and enjoy their jobs.
Tag: employee
The quality of a sales manager has a profound impact on a sales team's success.
A company's culture sets the tone for everything. Creating an experience that customers AND employees love is the building block for company success.
Companies frequently end up with employees that just don't seem to perform the way you thought they would. Reasons can range from new hires that don't have the skill set they lead you to believe, are lazy, late, or whose overall morale is not a good fit for the company. The consequences can go far beyond the trials of making up for what the bad hire is lacking, and can actually cost your company a large sum of money.
Managing a small team is no small job. At times, it's probably more difficult than managing a large one.
Here at Nationwide Inbound, we are in a hiring boom. We're always excited to bring in new customer care representatives who add a new energy to our already energetic team. But there's always that lingering fear that we'll hire the wrong fit. So to help you avoid the same mistake, and to remind ourselves, we've put together some information on the cost of a bad hire and what you can do to avoid one.
At Nationwide Inbound, we've learned that training your staff to deliver excellent customer service is no easy task, but it's a necessary one. Today we are going to let you in on what we've learned so that your staff can became customer service experts too.

Cops 2.0: U R under arrest
TURLOCK, Calif. — U R under arrest.
Investigators used text-messaging to nab a carjacking suspect early Friday, police said.
The carjacking was reported about 11:30 a.m. Thursday at the Turlock library on Minaret Avenue, said Lt. Ron Reid. A woman was getting out of her car when a man with a hooded sweat shirt approached her, pointed a handgun at her and told her to get out and leave everything in the car, Reid said.
Police identified the suspect as Brandon Riley, 22, of Turlock, who had been released from prison two days before. It wasn't clear Friday how they identified Riley, nor why he had been in prison.
Reid said investigators found some of Riley's acquaintances and sent a text message to his cell phone, pretending to be a friend and arranging to meet.
Police arrested Riley at 1:30 a.m. at Olive Avenue and Canal Drive "without incident," Reid said. They recovered the car a couple of hours later.

I don't know what it is about blue, but it has always been my favourite colour. I've always loved the calmness that exudes from it. There are so many shades and variations, and all of them are beautiful when executed right. And Matchbox seem to be brilliant at executing blue cars – the latest iteration of the Ford F-100 Panel Delivery is a great addition to the lineup.
Ignoring the model that appeared at the Matchbox gathering, the van debuted in 2008 in orange with "Farmer's Market" tampos. Since then we've seen it in a wide variety of attractive colours and liveries.
Now, with the "MBX City Store" side tampos and gorgeous disc wheels, this truck looks smarter than ever.
Wondering what that orange text is beneath "MBX CITY STORE"? It's damn near impossible to read, but it says "We Deliver". You'll also see "Open All Year" and "Truck 11". Sounds to me like Matchbox needs to have some 1:1 vans like this, delivering their own product…
The detail around the rear with the moulding of the doors, handle, tail lights and license plate is great. However, this being a large casting with a big side-space, we see side tampos instead of front/rear. This being a delivery van, we can deal with that. However surely it can't cost that much extra to do one more side?
I have seen comments regarding the colour, where some people feel as though it would have deserved a satin or a gloss blue. I disagree. I think the matte looks great, and the photos show it. The lack of glare brings out the detail nicely.
Blue additions to my favourite Orange brand are always welcome here – each time a blue licensed Matchbox appears, it's a home run. Think Buick Century Police and Land Rover Ninety:
The new for 2016 Volkswagen Transporter double-cab, with the fun variation in the rear deck:
The 2013 Ford Cargo recolour:
The Lesney Edition Cadillac Hearse, a casting we are unlikely to see ever again:
One of my all-time favourite castings, the Superfast 1955 Cadillac Fleetwood:
The legacy of beautiful blue goes all the way back to the Lesney era, with cars like the Iso Grifo and the Leyland truck:
And perhaps the Holy Grail find for me will someday be the blue Toyota Land Cruiser – until then, enjoy this photo by Phil's 1stPix on Flickr.
The list could go on and on, as I'm sure you know, and there are far too many desirable models here to list individually. There are Matchbox aplenty from the past that I still want to collect, but there seems to be plenty to look forward to in the future as well, especially now as Matchbox is returning to its roots.
Thanks for reading.

"The LORD is righteous; He has cut in pieces the cords of the wicked."
This is a word, a "thus saith the Lord." From the teaching last night, giving water to the king, animals and soldiers was not difficult for God. He will do the same for you. Sometimes little things get in the way, but they are not important. Don't worry God is cutting off the enemy and taking care of the small things. No matter what your situation may be, the enemy has been cut off. Today is the 17th, a day of victory.

Commentary by Daniel Kerr
It is clear by all indications that we are in the midst of an economic crisis as the recession deepens. And it is also true that within every crisis there is an opportunity. Several city officials have taken the opportunity presented by our current calamity to discuss how we can resolve the intransigent problem of homelessness. While this is certainly a noble effort, it will only bear fruit if we unflinchingly look back and come to grips with the stark reality that homelessness is not only a phenomenon of recession, but is a social problem that escalated during the so called "boom times" of the 1990s. We must use this current opportunity to restructure the social landscape in a way that addresses the factors that lead to homelessness not only in the worst of times but also the best of times.
Puzzled by the persistence of homelessness in the mid-1990s, I began examining the phenomenon from the bottom up. In the public parks, under the bridges, on the sidewalks, and in the shelters of this city, I began asking the homeless how and why homelessness developed and persisted as a social problem. Early on, I was presented by a paradox and a challenge by John Appling:
It takes the efforts, man, of all of us homeless people to get together and try and come up with solutions. But they don't want to hear our ideas. We go on homeless marches. We go on homeless outings. And we tell them what's the problem. We know what the problem is. But they don't listen to us. You know why? Because there's big dollars involved now.
The problem cannot be addressed by simply knowing causes and solutions; it can only be addressed by challenging significant economic interests invested in the status quo. But how could anyone be profiting off of homelessness? Isn't homelessness a condition of severe poverty? The answer to this paradox has been consistently hammered home to me in hundreds of interviews with homeless people in the city of Cleveland. The challenge to address this oppression is one for all of us to take up.
The nexus of homelessness has been broken down to me as having five interlocking aspects. The first has to do with the establishment of a downtown playground for the rich. While the city has paid hundreds of millions of dollars for new stadium complexes designed for the super rich, the basic needs of the residents of the city have languished. Many of these projects, such as the Gateway complex and the Cleveland State Convocation Center, have been built over districts that used to contain the city's working-class hotels where poor people could obtain rooms for a few dollars a night. Ironically the projects that have undermined the survival base of working class Clevelanders have been funded by one of the most regressive forms of taxation – "sin" taxes on alcohol and tobacco.
Secondly, the massive expansion of the prison industrial complex, based on the so-called war on drugs, has ensnared a growing number of non-violent offenders who come from economically devastated neighborhoods. Not only does the criminal justice system disproportionately warehouse working-class people of color, when ex-offenders finish serving their time they face major barriers in finding housing and jobs because of their criminal records. As a result many ex-offenders are pushed into the ranks of an emerging "untouchable class" and forced to depend on the shelter system and temporary day labor agencies.
Contrary to popular stereotypes, the substantial majority of homeless people in the city of Cleveland have family, friends and roots in the city. When asked where they grew up, most of the homeless in the city's emergency shelters can name the streets and neighborhoods where their family owned homes or rented apartments – frequently located on Cleveland's eastside or near west side. On many of the same plots of land that the current homeless used to live, one can now find $300,000 single-family homes. Many of these homes have been significantly subsidized by the city through tax abatements, land giveaways and demolition costs. The "revitalization" or more aptly the "gentrification" projects have caused severe housing shortages that have caused overcrowding in the remaining working-class districts. Displaced residents have either fled to deteriorating inner ring suburbs, been "housed" in the state's prisons, or have found their way to the downtown shelters.
While housing is no longer in the reach of many working-class Clevelanders, they have also seen a significant deterioration in their working conditions in the past thirty years as a result of massive economic restructuring. Businesses have sought to cut their costs through a series of management strategies based on flexible or just-in time production tactics. Rather than building loyalty and providing economic security to a large base of permanent workers, these companies have become dependent on a temporary labor pool that they can let go at a moment's notice without worrying about benefit packages, workers compensation or unemployment insurance premiums. A large portion of the companies' risks has essentially been displaced onto the workers. As a result the temporary labor industry has skyrocketed in the past thirty years and engaged in some of the most unscrupulous labor practices. Homeless day laborers spend fourteen hours a day waiting, traveling and working and come back to the shelter with 27-30 dollars in their pocket after agency fees have been subtracted. These are the workers who, with minimal safety protection and training, do the region's dirtiest, hottest, most labor intensive and dangerous jobs.
To meet the most basic housing needs of this growing population of displaced working-class Clevelanders, the city has developed a series of homeless shelters and services that are concentrated in the warehouse district just east of the city – a homeless segregated district for Cleveland's untouchable citizens. These shelters provide just enough to keep the homeless alive and mollified so that they can go back to work another day. They are run by non-profit agencies which angle for government contracts and consistently refuse to allow shelter residents to have any control over their living situation. While on one hand politicians rave about the value of deconcentrating the poor, usually while they are giving away land and subsidies to the rich, these same politicians do not dare allow housing for the homeless in their wards. Ironically they have created with the establishment of the emergency shelters a hyper-concentration or institutionalization of the poor. It is no wonder that many homeless term the shelters "open penitentiaries."
While non-profit service agencies benefit from government contracts to operate shelters, downtown and neighborhood developers cash in from the displacement of working-class Clevelanders, higher up drug dealers, police, prison guards and contractors benefit from the rise of the prison industrial complex, and area businesses and labor agencies profit from the exploitation of their workers, an entrenched system of homelessness continues.
The matrix of oppression looks bleak. The traditional means of dealing with poverty in the twentieth century are not available to us today. Requests for assistance from the Republican controlled federal government and the Republican dominated state legislature are unlikely to bear fruit. Many of the social service providers who have been managing the homeless have little interest in seeing things change. While an analysis of homelessness from the bottom-up provides a cogent understanding for why so little has changed in our efforts to address homelessness in the past twenty years, this analysis also provides a glimmer of hope. To see this glimmer, we need to look another direction.
If the city is serious about using this present crisis as a time to establish systemic change that can do away with institutionalized homelessness and provide the means for people to live their lives with dignity and respect, it will have to tap into our most substantial resource: the homeless themselves. First the city and county will have to guarantee the right of the homeless to organize within the shelters that they pay for and so that the homeless residents can have some control over their present living conditions. Supporting the day laborers initiative to set up an alternative non-profit hiring hall as an alternative to the abusive day labor agencies would provide a substantial second step. These two initiatives could be linked up into a broader strategy to develop sustainable housing for the homeless through a city sponsored homesteading program.
Ironically, while thousands of Clevelanders are homeless, the city has a surplus of vacant and abandoned housing that could provide the basis for a solution to the homeless crisis. By designing training programs through the community hiring hall in conjunction with the building trades and linking these programs to city sponsored tool lending libraries, the homeless could provide the skills and labor necessary to construct and rehab their own homes. Support services evaluated and approved by the homeless could be tied into these networks. Facilities rehabbed by the homeless could provide a base for social services, cultural facilities and organizing in the surrounding neighborhoods.
At the root of our hope is the basic fact that all the issues important to the homeless are issues that impact the broader community. Organizing around these issues potentially draws into a movement large segments of the working class in the region. It is our challenge and opportunity in this current moment to build a grassroots movement that can mobilize this base and transform the city's social and economic landscape.

When it comes to protein supplementation, it seems that we often hear about whey protein. Of course there are dozens of other choices, especially if you are a vegetarian. (Since whey protein is a derivative of milk, vegetarians will prefer other sources such as pea, hemp, or soy.) The basic reason why whey is so popular is it is very close in molecular structure to that of mother's milk. This also makes it rank very high in terms of human bioavailability.
Whey protein is absorbed very quickly because its molecular structure is shorter than others, thus making digestion much easier. Also, without getting into too much detail, whey protein has been shown in studies to be beneficial for blood sugar levels, depression, blood pressure, and more.
Earlier I mentioned that whey was a derivative of milk. There are two main sources of protein in milk. One is whey and the other is casein. Whey digests faster and easier than casein, and that's why it rates so highly in terms of human bioavailability.
At one time, whey was considered a waste product. It had very low protein content (about 17 percent) and very high sugar/lactose content and was considered a by-product of cheese manufacturing. Technology soon evolved and we are now able to concentrate whey, or separate it from, the sugar and lactose. Instead of whey being 17 percent protein, it is now concentrated at 70-80 percent. When isolated, it will exceed 90 percent protein.
So now because of whey protein's high bioavailability and the fact that it is concentrated to exceed the potency of many other protein nutrients, it has catapulted to the top of the protein food chain. Whey is the number one source of protein to manufacture supplements with!
I have been working with whey protein supplementation for the past 30 years. I have seen the evolution of whey proteins that tasted chalky and horrible and formed gooey clumps when mixing them. I am proud to say that we at Max Muscle Nutrition have helped the entire whey protein market evolve to its present state.
Over the years we have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on research and development of supplement proteins for athletes. We have formulated whey products that finally blended easy with a spoon and tasted delicious while supplying a powerful dose of high quality whey protein with low carbohydrates and fats. We were also testing our whey proteins for potency 20 years before it was required by law.
The bottom line here is that we at Max Muscle are experts on whey protein. We have developed some of the finest and purest whey proteins and whey protein blends in the marketplace. We have strong testing procedures and a PhD in Dr. Phil Harvey, who is our head of product development, making sure we are a leader in the industry.
You as the consumer can feel 100 percent confident that when you purchase any protein product from Max Muscle, you have the finest protein available. Stop by your local Max Muscle Nutrition store and let our Certified Fitness Nutrition Coaches get you started with a great whey or any other type of protein product.

In the face of the economic downturn, education funders in the U.S. are adjusting their operations, with many sharpening their focus as they cut back on grantmaking, a new report says.
Almost six in 10 education funders trimmed their grantmaking budgets in 2009, while 26 percent made no changes and the remaining 14 percent increased giving, says the report from Grantmakers for Education.
To cope, virtually all the funders, which together account for $1.5 billion in support for education, have made internal changes, including cutting expenses and personnel.
More than nine in 10 are collaborating with other funders, and almost half plan to increase their collaborative work over the next two years.
At the same time, education grantmakers are eager to find and fund innovative approaches to entrenched problems, while acknowledging that documenting the effectiveness of new approaches can be problematic.
Education funders continue to be interested in public policy, with six in 10 groups supporting research, advocacy and other policy-related activities, and several planning to increase their efforts over the next two years.

The Concept Behind This Blog
WHY do so many people I know and who love music never read music magazines and do not know where to go to get the music they want to hear or discover?
So many I have met had given up but were still happy to write down a few names they were given at a dinner, just trusting my recommendations on the basis of the passion I was putting into telling them about this or that album/artist.
It doesn't matter whether or not I have met or interviewed the artist, or if an album is fashionable; they just want to hear something more personal, more in touch with them away from the hype, a possible pearl overlooked by the media or hidden in the piles of complacent or misleading publications about music releases.
Even with a long experience of reading between the lines of music magazines, so often you end up with an album that has not much in common with the promises made by music journalists and their trendy unintelligible verbiage. This is what has brought me to writing this blog.
I am still shocked and feel sick knowing that so many great albums are still unknown by people who have developed tastes for music, but who don't have enough time to get the right stuff.
I have tried to contribute modestly to improve that with my closest entourage and wish now, mostly encouraged by those people who have appreciated my recommendations, to share with a larger number thanks to this blog.
My ambition is not to review the largest number of albums and tell my opinion about each of them. In this blog I only want to pick the albums that I think are fundamental, recent or old, and just hope that by explaining why they are so special to me, a larger number of people will get "contaminated" and play them.

One Helluva Novelluva
Or, A Deathmask that I'll Tear off Again and Again: Brandon Davis Jennings on Little Presque Isle novella contest winner, Dan Mancilla's The Deathmask of El Gaucho
A couple days ago I was lucky enough to find Dan Mancilla's The Deathmask of El Gaucho stuffed in my mailbox when I was headed back out the door to pick up my daughter's first birthday cake. I'd forgotten to swing by the bakery while out running errands earlier; the cake was the only thing (on a fairly long list) that I forgot. And what kind of dad would I be if I didn't nearly screw up the most important things in my daughter's life once in a while? (Actually, I Navarro make miscakes. Ba-doosh.)
Because I've been blessed with good fortune and opportunities time and again by the folks at Passages North, I was one of the judges for the Little Presque Books novella contest last year. So I'd already read Deathmask, but I read it again, twice, because it is one of the best books I've read in a long time. And, unlike The Brothers Karamazov, reading this book didn't require a ten-year commitment.
Deathmask is, at its core, a story about American masculinity: how it's displayed versus how it exists internally. It's a story about who the wrestlers within its pages become as "the life" takes its toll on their bodies, bodies that fans and many of the wrestlers themselves work hard to forget are the bodies of mortal men.
I know that not everyone who reads this book will have grown up during the days of Hulkamania and Andre the Giant. Sorry if you missed it; it was great. (I'm certain that when Trump says he wants to make America great again, he is referring specifically to bringing Andre the Giant back from the dead). I did grow up during that sweet spot in history, and my brother and I were so engaged by what we saw on TV that we had our father sign us up for wrestling at the YMCA (or its equivalent in Tacoma, Washington). We were excited to fly from turnbuckles, pile drive helpless bad guys, and flatten goons by bludgeoning them with folding chairs. When we showed up for our first practice and were handed our singlets, we quickly realized that there was a lot less magic in the wrestling we were participating in than the wrestling that we'd seen on television. We put on the singlets and felt pathetic because of our smallness, and we quit wrestling after unremarkable performances at our only meet. I do not regret it.
I'd be lying if I said nostalgia had nothing to do with why I like The Deathmask of El Gaucho so much, but I also liked Thundercats when I was young, and when I watch it now (which is never), I only like it because of nostalgia (in fact, I like Thundercats a lot more in my mind than I do when its on a screen). Deathmask is not engaging because of nostalgia, it engages me because of the world and the characters Mancilla populates that world with. The history he builds for the world of professional wrestling and all its players is richly drawn, and, at times, those players are given breath and blood with little more than a name from which to picture them: Otto Von Zeppelin, Don Slaughter, Black Jack Covert, or my favorite: Frenchy Bravo.
This is no small compliment. The image conjured by the simple mention of a name was one of the things that was so amazing about wrestling when I was a child. Before I had ever seen Andre the Giant on television, I pictured a giant. And then, when I saw him on TV, his giant-ness delivered in a way that was magical; in fact, he was bigger than I could have imagined because even though I had seen Jack and the Beanstalk cartoons, I knew the difference between animation and reality. Andre the Giant was a real man wearing a singlet, and no man was supposed to be that big; therefore, he was a real giant. That is the kind of magic Deathmask delivers. Reality is skewed just enough to help you believe that what you are reading is real even when you know the book is fiction.
Mancilla doesn't stop there, though. He also offers a long, close look at something that I never witnessed as a child: the men behind their characters. It wasn't until I was in my thirties that I learned Andre the Giant was in constant physical pain; he had the front seats of his car removed so that he could sit in the back seat to drive somewhat comfortably. He was so large that there was nowhere he could go and not be noticed and objectified in a way that people rarely consider when talking about men. Yes professional wrestlers are putting themselves on stage and they become objectified as a result of some of their own choices (Andre is an exception to this in a few ways, but this isn't about him). But we rarely get to see who they are under their masks or outside of the ring until after they've died of heart attacks (as Andre himself did) or in ways as sad and lonely as one of Mancilla's characters: Don "The Bruiser" Frederick who suffocated (presumably under a barbell) in his basement while bench pressing in the early hours of the morning to make sure that when he stepped into the squared circle later that evening, his chest would be as chiseled as the massive chests of the comic book heroes that his young fans would compare it to.
Deathmask takes us from the pinnacle of El Gaucho's career to the very bottom. We ride the wave from start to finish and at times we're afforded the opportunity to witness a beauty that only the combination of strength and sleight of hand can create when an audience is aware that it's being fooled. Part of the beauty of professional wrestling is that, like in fiction, we can choose to let it fool us. Realism is not real after all or else it wouldn't be an "ism", and despite the realness we experience in these characters' lives, they are no more real than the characters they portray in the ring.
Andre the Giant was a man with a disorder (acromegaly) that caused him to grow to an extreme that many people had never witnessed, and still he was just a man. But he was a giant man and no amount of acting could make him smaller. The same is true of Hulk Hogan; he was (and is) bound, like all men, by the limitations of his own mortality, bound by the limits of his own strength and intelligence. Hogan's ability to body slam Andre the Giant is not something that a man can pretend to do physically, and as a child, I didn't yet know any part of wrestling was an act. It was amazing to me when I saw Hulk lift Andre and slam him to the mat after having failed to do so earlier in the match. And now, as an adult, even though I know that it was scripted, that doesn't alter the fact that Hulk Hogan was physically strong enough to lift a man of Andre's size: 6'11" and 450 pounds. It was a mixture of physical strength and drama that helped to make that wrestling match between Hogan and Andre stay fresh in my memory after all these years. What makes reading Deathmask better than watching that old match on Youtube is Mancilla's ability to go deep enough into the characters of the world he's created to make me care about them inside and outside of the ring without asking me to search outside of the two covers that contain the entirety of Deathmask to learn anything else. I don't need a book on El Gaucho's history in order to understand him. I understand him as well as I need to.
The Deathmask of El Gauchois, for me, the literary equivalent of that body slam I witnessed all those years ago. I know the world Dan Mancilla has created is not our world, and I also know that it couldn't be any closer to the world we live in and still be art. A good book helps you to forget you're reading about characters. A good book helps you to see the world in ways that you might not have seen it otherwise. A great book makes you want to read it again. I've read this book three times. And I will read it again.

Every 'Purge' movie ranked (including 'The First Purge')
This prequel in the social-horror franchise showcases the first night where all crime (including murder) is legal. USA TODAY
With guns, masks and machetes, this week the "Purge" franchise returns for another anything-goes killing spree.
The dystopian horror saga has shot through four installments with a can't-lose premise: For 12 hours every year, the U.S. government sanctions all crimes as legal to release pent up societal anger and violence.
"The First Purge" (in theaters now) offers up an origin story, marking the latest in producer Jason Blum's popular microbudget franchise. (A Hollywood offering that keeps critics howling louder than its doomed victims.) Here's our ranking of all four "Purge" films.
4: 'The Purge: Election Year' (2016)
With a plot full of more holes than its onscreen gunshot victims, "Election Year" ranks as the worst of the bunch. The story follows Sen. Charlie Roan (Elizabeth Mitchell), the sole survivor of a purge massacre that wiped out her whole family when she was a child. Now she's running for president on an anti-Purge platform, a movement that benefits from wide populist support.
The public's unexplained reversal on Purge nights is a baffling concept, given that it goes against the franchise's very foundation that society has devolved to the point that the bloody night is not only vital but popular. Worse, even the fight scenes are unsatisfying, as "Election Year" dies in its quest for a happy ending.
3: 'The Purge: Anarchy' (2014)
The second film in the franchise focuses on the bigger picture, taking a wider look at the economic inequality that feeds societal rage. The plot features three separate economic groups trying to survive the Purge. But by spreading the focus, "Anarchy" spreads itself too thin, culminating in flimsy character development and unrealistic plot lines.
2: 'The First Purge' (2018)
The latest film is the most overtly political of the franchise, and is powerfully relevant given today's headlines.
Drug dealer Dmitri (Y'lan Noel) fights back against the government's plan to wipe out a largely African-American, subsidized-housing neighborhood on Staten Island. On the night of the Purge, an entirely white, brutal armed force takes out the local community, giving birth to the government sanctioned mayhem that follows. Effectively walking the line between a social message and genre entertainment, "The First Purge" also features comedy, thanks to the foul-mouthed neighbor Dolores ("Orange Is the New Black" star Mugga).
1: 'The Purge' (2013)
The film that started the franchise in 2013 tops the list. Ethan Hawke gave the genre flick star power as James Sandin, a successful businessman whose house is overwhelmed by killers during the Purge. But it's "Game of Thrones" star Lena Headey who steals the show as a desperate mom protecting her two children, Charlie (Max Burkholder) and Zoey (Adelaide Kane). Overall, the first bloody "Purge" thrilled with meticulously crafted plot twists that kept us gasping until the credits rolled.

Orange has launched 'Flexible Workforce', a pay as you consume plan for small and medium business customers.
The operator said the plan will provide businesses that have contract employees, conduct their business at temporary fixed off-site locations, have unpredictable/low mobility requirements or require access to a shared resource, with more adequate tariff options.
It is available to existing business customers who already have two or more contract subscribers and has been designed to address concerns of businesses fighting back in order to beat the recession.
Orange said it will provide flexibility around fluctuations in workforce numbers and locations for seasonal/project-based businesses, enable shared resource for staff who will only have sporadic non-essential needs for use of a mobile for businesses purposes and enable customers to manage their cash flow better as payment is made in arrears of use, meaning costs don't have to be absorbed ahead of incoming revenue.
It added that it will also tackle unpredictable future requirements, so no monthly line-rental contract is required and therefore minimal commitment needed. This will give customers greater control over their costs, which will be in direct use to usage patterns.
Orange UK director of SME Martin Lyne (pictured) said: "We are particularly conscious of the uncertainties affecting our smaller business customers and we need to ensure we provide flexibility in our plans to help support their changing communications needs.
"As the only operator to provide such an alternative we feel confident that Flexible Workforce will assist SME's to better weather these economic conditions."

I have a cabinet that is primed in white. How can I paint it distressed black?
NLZM from Prospect, KY
Add your voice! Click below to answer. ThriftyFun is powered by your wisdom!
the easiest way is to sand down the edges of the piece (randomly so it looks natural). You can also randomly scuff doors, top, etc. Then rub the sanded edges with a wax candle. When you paint it black, the paint won't stick to the wax. Then you can put other dents in it to your liking. Another cool look is to paint a color underneath the black, like red or dark green, instead of sanding through. Then you have a black cabinet with red highlights instead of "natural." Good luck! It'll be easy!
Patience and a lot of prep work. Here's a link that will tell you more. And, before doing the black, make sure you really like it, as it will be hard to go back to a lighter color later.

Membership Means... Connecting with Arts Lovers
October was officially proclaimed Discover Jersey Arts Month by Governor Christie and we're celebrating! How can you join in on the fun? Become a Jersey Arts Member! Read what other Jersey Arts Members have to say about what membership means to them:
Being a Jersey Arts Member means making new friends and building your network! While my day job is not in the arts, I try to stay as actively engaged as possible in the local, state, national, and global arts scene, and I love supporting the arts in my home state! Through Jersey Arts Membership this is further possible. I recently kicked off two arts event series at Artworks in Trenton, and through the Jersey Arts Member Party at Grounds for Sculpture I made new friends who support the arts in Madison and Newark, NJ. I am hoping these new friends will support the new art series in Trenton, and I plan to go and support their awesome work in Madison and Newark. In fact, I am working now on gathering a group together to go check out the Newark Open House event of their local art galleries! Care to join me?

My husband and I are newlyweds, but we are constantly on the go; we are like two ships passing in the night. We both have such busy schedules that even though we are told we should still be making time to go on "dates," it's hard sometimes. We found a solution! We recently decided to get a Jersey Arts Membership. The events, discounts and opportunities give us that excuse to check out shows and events we might not make a point to see otherwise, and it's so reasonable that we can't pass it up.
Our date nights used to consist of just that, a "date night"–a few hours we'd get to spend together seeing a movie and getting a bite to eat because we didn't have time to plan. However, this past weekend was a refreshing change for us–no pressure and no planning. We were able to have a date day at Grounds for Sculpture thanks to our Jersey Arts Membership. We had a lovely brunch in the Bamboo Garden and a tour around the sculpture grounds; our day culminated with a lecture from an artist (Ming Fay) currently on exhibit there. Without our membership, we wouldn't have been able to have such a wonderful experience. With our membership, we have the opportunity to have someone else plan our dates and we get to experience a wide variety of the arts and culture that we find so very important.
When was the last time you had time to plan a date day like this? I don't know about you, but "never" is my response… these types of moments with your spouse should not be reserved for holidays and special occasions only. We had a lovely day and look forward to many more. We also are supporting the arts in New Jersey, a cause near and dear to our hearts.
-Priscilla & Lindsey Smith, Premium Jersey Arts Members
I can honestly say that my Advocate Jersey Arts Membership has taken my passion for the arts to a new level . . . not only in regard to what I do and experience as an arts "spectator" or participant, but also in regard to my understanding of the impact the arts can have on quality of life and educational achievement.
Taking part in Arts Advocacy Day in DC to carry such messages to New Jersey Members of Congress -- or, more accurately, young and enthusiastic members of their staffs -- has been worth the occasional raised eyebrow for two days out of the office. Having someone's ear and undivided attention in Washington, even if it's for ten minutes, can't help but leave you feeling that you are making a difference.
I attended my first Arts Advocacy Day in 2004. It was kind of, "Wow! So this is what advocacy is all about." Since then, I've made it a point to get to DC for the annual event and to bring what I learned there back to my city and all my working and volunteer relationships that involve the arts."
