Mark Crane has been curing the animals of Bellingen for 27 years now. As Bellingen's Vet he has seen it all. "A country Vet will face so many more challenges than our city colleagues, but probably my biggest challenge at the moment is finding a Vet who wants to work rurally," says Mark.
Being a rural Vet was a natural fit for this rural lad though. "I grew up on one-million plus acre cattle stations. My father was a station manager and we moved around a lot. We were 2 years up on the Barkley Tablelands in the Northern Territory before moving to the channel country of Queensland- the corner where Queensland, the Northern Territory and South Australia meet. The closest town was Bedourie, 105 km away, that had 26 residents and 40 dogs. Our remoteness meant we were often bare-foot Vets out of necessity," says Mark.
Now we're intrigued!
Mark took time out of his busy schedule to chat with Rod.
Did your upbringing influence your decision to become a Vet?
I've always loved the natural world. By the age of 13 I had been through 3 potential career aspirations. The first was Zoology, but I soon realised I'd be spending my time in dark rooms studying stuffed animals. Then I decided to become the next Harry Butler, until it was pointed out that he was the only Naturalist earning a living. So by 13 I had made the bold decision to become a Vet.
Was it a lonely childhood?
No- I loved the freedom that came with it. I always enjoyed the independance of driving around the station on my own checking bores and windmills. This would take 6-8 hours as the stations were so big. Once I was driving a cattle truck into the nearest town but wasn't yet old enough to have a drivers licence. The local policeman pulled me over and decided the best way to handle it was to issue me a licence on the spot.
Do you think your upbringing taught you anything which has been crucial in your career as a Vet?
We were witness to a lot of tragedy during those years. Severe droughts bring hard decisions with stock- all welfare driven. The one thing I took away from this upbringing which has helped me in my career is the ability to dissociate emotionally from a situation when needed.
How did you end up as Bellingen's Vet?
When I left uni I decided I 'd had enough of Queensland, especially Joh Bjelke Petersen. John Power owned the Dorrigo Veterinary Clinic and was looking for an assistant. I came down and took a look around. I fell in love with the area after a couple of bush walks – I knew I'd struck it lucky when I got the job fresh out of uni. A few years later John shifted his family to Melbourne and I became the owner and only a year later I took over the Bellingen Valley Veterinary Clinic from the late Matthew Mackerras. I sold the Dorrigo clinic in 1996 and have basically focused my attention here since.
You must see it all. Can you describe some of the more unusual procedures that you've had to perform as Bellingen's Vet.
There are so many where would I start. Only half an hour ago I was lancing an abscess on a rat. Mind you, when you asked me to file your pet bunny's teeth Rod- that was up there!
Oh we loved Daisy! Mind you when we got a second rabbit we realised pretty quickly Daisy was a Don.
As a pet owner- what should I be on the look out for at the moment.
This time of year it's ticks. Fortunately we have some great preventative products now.
Do you have the full menagerie at home?
When our kids were at home we did. These days we only have a dog, a cat and four chooks.
So does Bellingen's Vet have a favourite breed of dog?
Yep- the Kelpie. They are energetic, intelligent, no-nonsense and low maintenance.
Why are Shetland Ponies so cranky?
Short man syndrome I think.
Do goldfish have a memory?
Hey- let up on the goldfish! How many stupid things do humans do repeatedly?
Your best sporting moment was?
U16 Rugby Union premiers in Brisbane – a great team made up of all my best friends.
What are you reading right now?
Vet journal articles. Boring I know, but I love science and challenges to our paradigms. I tend to stick to non-fiction covering a range of topics, as I like to feed on facts. My own imagination supplies my mind with enough "non-fiction" to suffice.
What are you listening to right now?
Calypso/Soca, Irish Folk, Bluegrass, 70's especially Punk. I love the Saints. And various contemporary artists as provided by our children.
What really annoys you?
Please don't ask ………..
The best lesson your parents taught you?
The last big belly laugh you had was?
Two days ago our kids were all back in Dorrigo. One of them was reading to us from the diary she kept at the age of 13.
How do you relax?
Gardening, bird watching, running, chilling with some very "comfortable" long term friends.
Favourite holiday destination & why?
South America – I love the laid back attitude, lack of pretentiousness, lack of preciousness, genuine willingness to communicate with other humans, and a desire to enjoy life without whinging about what they don't have. The scenery and wildlife are exquisite. And of South America, Columbia is my own particular favourite.
In the Movie Cranegate, who would play you?
Liam Neeson – who else could do it?

I sat at the head of Corrals Trail, up Bogus Basin Road, patiently waiting for this article to be written. Below me squatted Boise, lights winking in a romantic, if not epileptic sort of way. In the hills above drifted the audible sounds of the Owyhee Motorcycle Club. Beside me jumped a Mormon cricket, which I smashed because I am mean.
A cyclist pedaled up next to me as I was taking in the scenery.
"Hear that?" I asked him.
"Yeah," he answered my obviously rhetorical question, "but check that out." He gestured to the foothills below us, which are slowly being eaten alive by various housing projects, or as my companion succinctly stated, suffering from a "yuppie toothache."
It is precisely this toothache that has lead to increased efforts to relocate the Owyhee Motorcycle Club, which has resided in the aptly named Peaceful Cove off Cartwright Road since acquiring the land in 1946. Negotiations to relocate the club began in earnest last fall as development and noise complaints began to pick up. Specifically, the Terteling family has been championing the move, as well as trying to ensure that the OMC benefits from such a deal. The Tertelings have been longtime neighbors to the motorcycle club, as well as major foothills landowners.
"We've been working with them, listening to their offers to relocate us, but we haven't found anything as good as we've got right here. It's hard to replace paradise," explained club president Mike Jackson while preparing his daughter's cart for a short track race. Last year the Terteling family offered the OMC 200 acres of land on Seaman's Gulch Road, adjacent to the Ada County Landfill. The proposal fell apart due to strong opposition from Hidden Springs residents. Other sites east of Boise have been proposed without success.
"Of course we don't want them over here. Our community is environmentally conscious. This is a beautiful, peaceful place, that's why people choose to move out here. We shouldn't be subjected to that kind of noise or air pollution," stated one woman who asked that her name not be used (but had eyes reminiscent of Tammy Faye Messner).
"We're willing to look at any available spot without a lot of homes nearby," continued Jackson, while fiddling with an axle or something. "I understand why [our neighbors] want us gone--although we've probably been the best neighbors for them because we've kept the land from being developed," he laughs.
As Jackson proudly explained, the OMC is the oldest public motorcycle track in the United States. Members have their own keys to the facilities and are encouraged to practice at their leisure. Also, because of their longevity in the area, Boise's 10 p.m. noise ordinance does not apply to the club. With over 500 members and races scheduled practically year-round, it is easy to see why new homeowners would have reason to complain.
"We try to be considerate [of our neighbors] and finish racing by 10:30 most nights," said Vice President of Short Track Terry Sinsel.
The self-imposed curfew is partly out of respect for their neighbors, and partly to ensure that their younger members get to bed at a decent hour as I discovered after stumbling over 6-year-old racer Page Lee Kubista. In her padded black and silver leather racing outfit, Kubista looked more like an industrial-chic porcelain doll than a racer.
Kubista was by no means the only youth in the group. Roughly 80 percent of the club is comprised of families, estimates Jackson, whose own teenage daughter Sierra has been racing for seven years.
"It's the best thing I can imagine introducing your kids to," boasts Jackson, while shrugging off my worried queries about injuries and/or decapitations. "We had a guy dislocate his shoulder a while back, but that's part of the fun of it." Several men around us nodded solemnly.
Perhaps, I thought, some sort of compromise could be reached. The OMC could soften its public image a bit, become a touch more genteel, and lure some families from developments like Hidden Springs into becoming members. Then the club would be welcome in the community, instead of politely asked to leave. All they would need is some wasp spray, daily brunches and Pilates classes for the ladies. Soon the Crane Creek Country Club would be building a short track to stay competitive.
As if cueing off of my mental calculations, the woman next to me began complaining loudly about the wasps swarming her exposed flesh.
Her complaint was diplomatically met.
"Tough titties. You don't cover up, you're gonna get stung," barked an old man walking past us.
There would be no Pilates classes. My dream was dead. I idly crushed a wasp.
On Corrals, the sun is setting and two Mormon Crickets are fighting over the carcass of the one I smashed. I can still hear the motorcyclists racing, and start betting on when they'll call it quits. They finally stop at 9:42 p.m. (I was guessing 10:15 p.m.), and the foothills are enveloped in the happy chirps of evil crickets (until 9:55 p.m., when someone in the toothache below me starts up their lawn mower/wood chipper). The sound is only slightly less annoying than the motorcyclists, and I begin to think that maybe there is hope for coexistence. With brunch and Pilates, all things are possible.

Vasant Panchami, Welcoming Spring
"Vasant Panchami, also spelled Basant Panchami, is celebrated equally by Panjabis, Hindus, Muslims, Indian Muslim Sufis, and Sikhs in Pakistan, India, Nepal, Bangladesh, and Indonesia. Vasant is primarily a cultural festival that marks the arrival of spring. The people of the Panjab wear yellow clothes and eat yellow rice to emulate the yellow mustard (sarson) flower fields, or play by flying kites. Vasant Panchami also marks the start of preparation for Holika bonfire and Holi, which occurs forty days later." -- Wikipedia
From SeedFreedom --
Basant Panchami: Welcoming Spring, Celebrating Organic Mustard Diversity
The sun ripples through the trees across fields of towering bright yellow mustard flowers. An array of women farmers anxiously wait for the Sarsun Utsav program to begin, seated on the lawn of a local biodiversity and educational farm in the Dehradun valley. A bright yellow sign proclaims "Seed Freedom-Food Freedom Campaign," guarded by a display of mustard flowers and a small golden Saraswati. Today marks Basant Panchami, in honor of the goddess of wisdom, Saraswati, and the coming of spring. To celebrate the occasion, Navdanya and local women's food sovereignty groups have gathered today to fight against GM Mustard that threatens this sacred seed and India's springs of the future.
The utsav, or celebration, begins with powerful educational speeches by local experts, who share the dangers of GM Mustard in India. For most of rural India, mustard oil is life. Women use this nutritious oil from the preparation of the most basic rotis to complex vegetable masala dishes. It is used to treat minor cuts, wounds, and infections. It is used for smooth skin and luscious hair. It is featured predominantly in both celebrations of birth and the mourning of death. Holy festivals are lit up by diyas filled with mustard oil. Its greens are consumed throughout the year—even in the coldness of winter—to provide health to families. It is the life of many people of India. Yet, Bt and GM Mustard threaten to introduce deadly chemicals and corrupted seed to India's farmers.
The traditional knowledge of women and the biodiversity that protects the earth are threatened by the monocultures, intensive chemical input, and large processing factories that come with GM Mustard. Women's caretaking of the seed, food, and sacredness of mustard is stripped away, while local oil mills are shut down and corporations take over the value chain from seed-to-oil. The women at Navdanya have joined together to combat this disastrous attempt, and on this Basant Panchami share their mustard seed biodiversity along with their traditional knowledge.
They begin by exchanging a diversity of mustard; each woman places a small handful of seed, hued from deep red to golden yellow to dark black, from her shawl into a communal bowl. Afterward, the seed is poured into a large wooden pestle. The elder aunties begin the process of pounding the seed—showing the younger women the traditional way of turning seed into oil. Each woman takes her turn, while some of the foreign volunteers at the educational farm attempt to learn too. After about an hour, with one woman always carefully pounding, two women holding the pestle, and one woman monitoring the small additions of water to the seed, the mustard begins to release its oil. The seed is placed in a cloth and squeezed to release its nutritious, sacred oil, and the farmers rejoice.
After this community exchange of knowledge, seed, and work, everyone shares in an organic lunch of fresh mustard greens eaten as raw salad, cooked mustard steamed with coriander and chili, and hearty rajma dal prepared with mustard oil. While the tone is of celebration and the joy of spring, it is clear that these farmers are ready to undertake the work to protect their biodiversity, their land, their seed, and their knowledge. As Dr. Vandana Shiva has said "mustard is the color of Basant, India's Spring Festival" and these local women farmers are committed to keeping the basant panchamis of the future bright, yellow, and free.

From its renowned precious metals refinery to its modern manufacturing facilities, through to its range of gold coins and bars, and innovative precious metals investment offerings – The Perth Mint has evolved from its humble yet industrious beginnings into a dynamic enterprise which embraces the global gold market.
Humble beginnings
As Australia's only remaining, fully operating 'gold rush' mint of the 1800s, The Perth Mint's grand colonial building continues to guard the wealth of operations and gold exhibits, which each play a role in adding value to, and promoting, gold worldwide.
While ownership of the institution transferred from the British Government to the local Government of Western Australia in 1970, it wasn't until the phenomenal surge in global gold demand was felt in the 1900s that the State commissioned its redevelopment. It was then, that the modern era of The Perth Mint began.
The modern era
To commence and manage its transition and future operations, the State created Gold Corporation under its own statutory legislation (Gold Corporation Act 1987). Its first assignment was to launch Australia's official gold bullion coin program to capture a share of the worldwide market.
With its established refining operations and minting facility, and the creation of its own treasury, the Commonwealth Government granted The Perth Mint the authority to manufacture and market legal tender coins under the Australian Currency Act 1965.
It was in 1987 that the Australian Nugget gold coin series was introduced. Its overwhelming success soon motivated the diversification of the investor program to include silver, platinum and palladium issues. Simultaneously, as the demand for gold continued to rise, an expansion of the Mint's refining and bar making facilities was required to house these fundamental functions, with a dedicated modern site soon established in Perth's eastern suburbs.
Still on the quest to showcase the nation's penchant for gold, the inaugural Australian Nugget coins featured famous Australian nuggets, including the Welcome Stranger and Golden Eagle. Yet, to establish the program as distinctively Australian to the broader international market, a new design theme was soon proposed.
In 1989, Australia's landmark gold coin series was relaunched, featuring the country's most recognisable animal icon – the kangaroo. Its artistry, which has since established the aptly renamed Australian Kangaroo as one of the most popular gold coin programs in the world, was created by acclaimed coin designer and goldsmith to Queen Elizabeth II, Dr Stuart Devlin AO CGM.
Dr Devlin's classic design of a bounding red kangaroo surrounded by rays of sunlight has since featured on each kilo release in the series for the past 27 years.
Australian Kangaroo One Tonne Gold Coin unveiled
Australian Kangaroo gold bullion coin program offers a combination of features which has made it one-of-a-kind in the global investment market. Yet, the uniqueness of the series was elevated to a new height, when The Perth Mint created the pinnacle of the program – the Australian Kangaroo One Tonne Gold Coin.
Unveiled at the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in Perth in October 2011, the colossal coin took the world by storm. Measuring 80cm in diameter and 13cm deep, the supersized masterpiece was awarded the Guinness World Record of 'largest coin' in 2012.
World tour
To promote Australian gold worldwide and to commemorate then 25 years since the investor program's iconic faunal design was first introduced, the One Tonne Coin embarked on a tour of the Mint's leading bullion coin markets in 2014. From Hong Kong to Vienna, then across Germany to its final destination of Berlin, Australia's gold icon inspired a record number of visitors to enter the halls of the prestigious World Money Fair in the German capital.
While the Australian Kangaroo One Tonne Coin is now quite at home back at The Perth Mint, where it illuminates the darkened exhibition gallery in which it takes centre stage, its creators continue to champion the Australian gold industry worldwide by hosting a dazzling exhibit at the premier precious metals fair held in February each year.

23 Days. And Counting.
"It's in TWENTY-THREE DAYS" I tell my kids.
"Our trip to Disney?!?! They inquire excitedly.
"Disney…what? No! That's not for a while. I'm talking about PARTNER SUMMIT" is my pithy response.
As they roll their eyes and look mildly disappointed I regale them with stories about the event. They retort with their own stories about Disney World. We finally agree that both are something to look forward to, albeit for different reasons.
Whether you're attending live or virtually, Partner Summit is the place to be.
Last week I talked about the top 5 reasons to get excited (and register!) for Partner Summit. Spoiler:
- It's right in time for fiscal planning.
- Hear about topics you care about from people you trust.
- Every company is a technology company and…
- Meet your extended team.
- Why not?
This week you can sign up for the sessions you want to attend. If you're attending virtually, let us know you're coming! Registration is required to attend Virtual Partner Summit.
>> Fast Forward: this week Denny Trevett, VP, will reveal Customer-In Selling: what it means to you and how to learn more at Partner Summit.
Protect your company and your customers before, during, and after a security attack…
You don't have to wait until Partner Summit to find out how to prevent security attacks, what to do when you discover your network (or customers network) is under attack, or how to recover afterwards. Shawn Yuskaitis, Sr. Manager, walks us through before, during, after, and supply chain in his four-part security series. His blogs are filled with fun analogies and how-to information.
>> Fast Forward: This week Shawn will share what to do after a security attack.
Pay more attention to customers *after* the sale
Numbers are powerful. And today's data shows that the more time you spend with your customers after the sale, the happier they'll be and the more your business will grow. We're arming you with the information and tools you need to make the experience after the sale meaningful and profitable. Get caught up on how to automate revenue, and how to drive value realization.
>> Fast Forward: This week Kelli Kirwin, Sr. Manager, talks about something our most successful partners are doing (that you can do too!).
Before you go, take 5 minutes to…
Register for Virtual Partner Summit.
I'm registered so I'll use my five minutes to brainstorm our travel list for Disney World.
In an effort to keep conversations fresh, Cisco Blogs closes comments after 60 days. Please visit the Cisco Blogs hub page for the latest content.

Soon to start where? USIC??
Hello All,
I am doing my ride along and drug test this week and was wondering if anyone from Texas could tell me what I am in store for. I have read many of the threads and they go from good to bad and back again. I appreciate any advice you can give. Thanks
Soon to start where? USIC??
Sorry yes starting with USIC.
Well I'm not in texas but I do work for USIC. I could go on and on about all the bad things but you probably have already read them. Just get prepared to work a lot of over time, don't worry about gps, as long as you are doing your job you have nothing to worry about. As far as idle time goes, I receive an email weekly that I'm idling too much, but I continue to do so. The way I see it , if its hot, I'm staying cool. I even idle in my truck during my 30 minute lunch.
Yeah sounds like just about any job, they all seem to have upsides and lots of downsides. I appreciate the info, even with the bad side it should be better than current job.
One good thing about this job is that you are on your own 90% of the time. You get to manage your own work load as you see fit for the most part. Though USIC is trying to stop this by implementing "auto ticket routing" which would pretty much route your day out for you.
I am used to the micro managing from current job but at least with USIC I will not be stuck inside a concrete building 12 hours a day. Can you tell me anything about benefits? So far everyone I have talked to has never used them, and I probably will because I need insurance for my Daughter.
Ok Thanks. I am hoping since doing the ride along and drug test that means I have the job but I guess I will know for sure tomorrow.
From what I have seen there, as long as you pass the drug test, you will get a call from the supervisor for when the next training class starts.
Are you in Central TX? I just turned in my back ground info. Did it take long to here back from them? Did they give you an expected training start date?
@ HPmadness I did my ride along today but we ran out of time to do anything else so I am supposed to call and set-up time to finish tomorrow. I am a little concerned because they said next class starts Monday. I won't get much notice to give to current employer but this job will be much better than current. @amiga276 it has been a very slow process but hopefully worth it.
I have a very hard time believing that there is a job worse than working for USIC if the pay is remotely similar.
Do yourself a favor and run away as fast as you can!!!!!! You will be much happier working at McDonalds.

- Don't try to cut all his freedom and smother him. Sometimes girls tend to be so possessive that they wind up curtailing all of the flexibility of the man. This may make the person sense he only missing his liberty and that may not be a good sign. Obviously, there may be restrictions on some points but you've to retain his freedom as effectively to produce him experience he is smothered. This in reality, could be one purpose that men go away.
- Don't select to the negatives. Look perhaps not into the negatives you see in your man. As an alternative, make an effort to magnify the good points he has done. This is often a blunder that women not have a tendency to detect but this can also drive men away. To learn to hold your person interested in you, you also have to ensure that you are not driving him away with negative speaks, criticisms and nagging. Needless to say, that doesn't suggest you have to sit in the part and be submissive all you want but it can help to regulate and avoid picking into the bad sides of him.
Maybe you have recently been going out with some body? Is he really that desirable that you wish to hold him? Have you been ready to accomplish everything just to produce him remain? Your condition is definitely how to keep a man interested. But you might possibly know nothing about doing so.
Guys usually get things for granted. And when they had enough with anything or some one, it would be over. Whilst in girls, when they state it's over, it is actually perhaps not around yet. It's just their method of saying that they would like to be given significance and be cared for just like a true woman. So now your problem is merely how to help keep a person involved - easy. Just follow these several tips.
Idea #1: Always search great.
If you believe that he could nevertheless be interested when you yourself have more minutes together seeking bad than seeking good, you're totally wrong. Guys are conscious of one's appearance. If he sees you ignoring your own self only to cover him more interest, he then may almost certainly leave. You should learn how to keep a person involved by meeting your personal wants first before minding him.
Idea #2: Hold him captivated.
If he is somewhat liking what he sees in you to date, keep it that way. Just be the cool you. Do points in your ways. Make sure that you stand out over anybody else. Be unique. This is the way to help keep a man interested - exciting him with your personal small ways. He'll definitely delay and check out for many more.
Tip #3: Watch for the perfect time.
In the event that you two had been constantly relationship, never surrender to that one particular night quickly. Wait for an ideal time. If you give in so quickly, he won't have the ability to see more of one's character How to keep a man interested and become just interested about the body, and maybe not you. Only hold him stoked up about that night. You might kiss from time to time, but hold it that way. After every date and he goes home, call it a night. Don't question him inside for a cup of coffee or anything. If he asks you to sleep with him just within a week of relationship, sport over. You need to be patient. Take points slowly. And primarily, construct his curiosity by enjoying the position of a strange and comfortable woman.
Tip #4: Do things that are unusual.
One way on how best to hold a person involved is by doing points from the ordinary. Girls have emerged by guys to be delicate and feminine. Should you something strange for a lady to complete, it will certainly take him by shock and see what more you can do. You could dare him to play billiards. If he sees you relatively proficient at it, he'd believe that you're quite cool. It's great to understand that a woman can do things frequently performed by men. A female like this is just too hard to resist.

In a city where the exhausted 9-to-5ers are preparing to flush their systems of administrative drivel with alcopops, the creative arts kids of the Solents and Trents are preparing their mouldy, unconscionably-priced student house for another DIY show.
The starchy sofa has been pushed up against the wall, MacBooks have been stowed away in locked bedrooms, and the 'stage' is little more than a cramped corner in the living room, sometimes strewn with fairy lights in an attempt to dress up the depressing décor. Amidst the commotion of unaware spectators, a band finishes tuning up and impulsively starts their set. This is 'The Scene'.

And, in the meantime, there is a benefit for the parents as well. They get to fall in love with these little people. And, the funny thing is, no matter what your child looks like, no matter what they are (or aren't) good at or talented in, all (good) parents will love those children and they will be beautiful in their eyes.
Already, I am amazed at how Cosette, in a little less than six years, has already learned so much. Much of 'who she will be' is already there, is already a part of her. And, while Joel and I will continue to teach her, train her, and pray for her, it has just been impressed on me lately the importance of not wasting a single day.
Now, I don't mean that we should all feel like complete failures when we are a little less than perfect. I'm sure that you, just like me, are still a work in progress. There are times when we react in a certain way, and look back later and see that we should have done things differently. But, as the old children's song goes, "He's still working on me".
But, what I do mean, is to live purposefully, with a goal always in front of us.
And so, what am I thankful for this Thanksgiving? I'm thankful for falling in love with my children. For the chance to be their Mama. To have moments like these right in front of my very eyes.
To look at my children and feel so much love in my heart that it just kind of wells up inside of me, if that makes any sense at all.
And then, I pray for more of God's Grace to do things 'right'. Because, we know that our children are watching and copying everything we do, right down to our blue jeans, green shirts, and banana eating :)

When my kiddos take a fall or have a minor bonk I always catch myself saying "Shake it off! You're ok. Just shake it off." Now please know that this isn't for the serious stuff – just for the little bumps and trips that a normal kid takes. A head over heels tumble down the stairs isn't a shake it off.
What I'm really trying to say to them is, "You aren't hurt so just forget about it and let it go. Move on to the next thing." I was recently reminded that sometimes I need to do the very same thing. I need to just walk away from people, circumstances, issues, or activities that aren't adding meaning or growth to my life.
When Jesus sent the disciples out into the world to witness and minister He gave them a series of instructions about what to do and how. But He also instructed them on when and how to leave a place. I think sometimes we forget that it's ok to move on. As a matter of fact, sometimes it's necessary.
Matthew 10:14 & 15
Whoever does not receive you, nor heed your words, as you go out of that house or that city, shake the dust off your feet. Truly I say to you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in they day of judgment for that city.
Shake the dust off? Even the dust? I mean what's the big deal about the dust? I think what Jesus was saying was to not take even a piece of the negativity or disobedience with you. Leave it all behind at once and move on.
I think there's also a shadow of "Don't even look back" in there too. You remember Sodom and Gomorrah, right? Lot was told to flee and not to look back. His wife missed that part and in a longing for a little piece of the life she was leaving, looked back. Turned to a pillar of salt, I think it's safe to say that she was stuck there. Much like we get stuck when we continue to look behind us as we try to move on.
Try this for me. In a soft safe space, walk straight forward while looking over your shoulder. How did it go? I going to guess that a few things happened. First you walked very slowly and cautiously; maybe even shuffled your feet forward instead of boldly stepping out. Second, I'm going to guess you didn't necessarily walk in a straight line. Is it possible that you walked to the left if you were looking over your left shoulder or vice versa?
And that brings us to the challenge. Is there a change that needs to be made in your life? And if there is, are you willing to fully commit to the change? Are you willing to step out, shake off the dust and move into the next phase of life? Are you willing to look ahead and put your focus on God in your future rather than the life in the past?
I would never dream of calling this easy. Many conditions tie us to our past; friendships, responsibilities, memories, small pieces of joy that keep clinging to us. But many conditions free us as well; hurts, suppression (failure to grow), negativity in general. Shaking all that off and moving away can be bittersweet or freeing. The point is if God has called a person to move on, they will have no peace until they shake themselves free and move.
Peace be with you even as you move.

NASA has released audio captured by its Cassini probe, just before it plunged head-first into the ringed planet on a death dive last year.
And it sounds like there's something whistling down there.
But before you head to the doomsday bunkers to prepare for the Saturnian invasion, we should point out that they're not they're not 'sounds' in the traditional sense – they're plasma waves.
The probe captured plasma waves moving from Saturn to its rings and its moon Enceladus. The observations show for the first time that the waves travel on magnetic field lines connecting Saturn directly to Enceladus.
The field lines are like an electrical circuit between the two bodies, with energy flowing back and forth.Widow pays tribute to PC Andrew Harper as man charged with murder
Researchers converted the recording of plasma waves into a "whooshing" audio file that we can hear – in the same way a radio translates electromagnetic waves into music.
Much like air or water, plasma (the fourth state of matter) generates waves to carry energy.
The recording was captured by the Radio Plasma Wave Science (RPWS) instrument Sept. 2, 2017, two weeks before Cassini was deliberately plunged into the atmosphere of Saturn.
Ali Sulaiman, planetary scientist at the University of Iowa said, 'Enceladus is this little generator going around Saturn, and we know it is a continuous source of energy.
'Now we find that Saturn responds by launching signals in the form of plasma waves, through the circuit of magnetic field lines connecting it to Enceladus hundreds of thousands of miles away.'
The interaction of Saturn and Enceladus is different from the relationship of Earth and its Moon. Enceladus is immersed in Saturn's magnetic field and is geologically active, emitting plumes of water vapor that become ionized and fill the environment around Saturn.
Our own Moon does not interact in the same way with Earth. Similar interactions take place between Saturn and its rings, as they are also very dynamic.

A stunning Ashley Young free kick that made his manager's jaw drop, and an incredible solo effort by Jesse Lingard saw Manchester United defeat Arsenal 3-1 at the weekend. Both these player's performances though were totally eclipsed by the genius that is David de Gea.
The result could have been so different for Arsene Wenger's men who were consistently thwarted by a magnificent display by Real Madrid target, de Gea. Arsenal dominated the possession, had four times as many shots on target as the visitors, and yet still could find no way past the Spaniard.
Everton moved up to 10th in the Premier League following another fine performance against a Huddersfield team that appear to be sliding into the ignominy of the relegation zone. No Wayne Rooney hat trick or amazing halfway line goals this week but he did chip in with an assist for the young Calvert-Lewin.
Calvert-Lewin you may remember is the guy that scored the winning goal for England in the under 20 World Cup in June.
Manchester City have now won thirteen games in a row in the Premier League after beating David Moyes's West Ham on Sunday. They did come from behind to do it though, and despite the defeat it was a much better performance from the Hammers. However, with only ten points from their first fifteen games (the worst in the club's history) West Ham will need to start showing their new manager some real fight and determination if they want to turn their season around.

Adult examinations are encouraged on a yearly basis. During the Consultation we will provide a comprehensive examination of your pet as well as review Nutrition, Behavior, Disease Prevention, Parasite Control, Oral Health Care and Grooming.
The ideal way to treat fireworks and thunderstorm phobias is to train your dog using behavior modification techniques such as systematic desensitization and counter-conditioning. This should be started at a time of year when fireworks or thunderstorms are not likely to occur, so that you have control over the situation and time to work on your retraining program. However, if this has not been possible, you need to know how to help your pet during a thunderstorm or fireworks celebration. This article aims to provide you with some helpful information for immediate treatment of fireworks and thunderstorm phobias.
With Bravecto® Chew for Dogs and Bravecto® Topical Solution for Dogs and Cats, get 12 weeks* of flea and tick protection with a single treatment. This makes it easy for you to provide long-lasting coverage to your dog or cat, without having to worry about remembering frequent treatments. With two great options for administering a treatment, now you can treat the way that's best for your pet and your preferences. With just one chew or topical treatment, your pet is all taken care of, so you can enjoy all of the activities you love to do together, without any worry for your animal.

The last flight of the summer season, on February 15th 2017, as it prepares to pass overhead, the pilot dips the wings in tradition. For those of us 'rookies' preparing to begin our first winter over here at South Pole, we though that the -50f temperatures were cold. Did we ever learn the hard way, that that is to be considered warm!
Courtesy Dr. James Casey, ICL
Having completed the wave, the last LC-130 of the season heads to McMurdo Station with the outgoing summer staff. We did have a few Basler's and Twin Otters come through the next two weeks, as all aircraft made their way off continent for the Antarctic winter. The fuel line, in the foreground would then be torn down and stored on the berms until late September or early October. Next LC-130 is scheduled to arrive October 30th, contingent on weather and plane availability.

The beacon of spring in these parts is undoubtedly the native dogwood. But, because of disease problems, especially dogwood anthracnose, people are seeking alternatives to Cornus florida. There are other notable dogwoods like Cornus kousa and Cornus mas, but look beyond the dogwood for small, spring flowering landscape trees that prove to have interest well into summer. Consider the Carolina silverbell (halesia) and the fringe tree (chionanthus).

All quiet on the WSU HOOPS front
Posted by Jeff Nusser on May 13, 2008
It's been a week since my last post, and honestly, there's very little going on right now. I've still got some longer posts I'm kicking around/working on that are more big picture things, but nothing ready for publishing yet.
What I'd like to do is steal a little idea from my friend Grady over at Stadium Way, and solicit some e-mails for a mailbag post. Got a question that's been burning you up? Shoot me an e-mail and I'll be happy to share my thoughts with all.

Let me just say that I LOVE earth tones. The more beige, gold, and all earthy relatives, the better. But I know that there's this strange and interesting thing that happens with people... that we all develop our own preferences, some of them purely personal and some of them culturally motivated. Gee, who would have thought that we all associate colors with different things?! Sarcasm aside, it truly is interesting and I always love to hear why someone has their favorite color palette (if they have a reason for it).
You probably remember learning about Primary colors, the color wheel, and ROYGBIV right? Some of us are immersed with this knowledge everyday because of our lines of work or out of pure enjoyment. It's easy to forget that there are actual Color Theories!
Take this color wheel for example. There are the basic names for color families, like reds and blues. We can simplify what a color is, yet there are so many tints-
tint /tint/
a shade or variety of color.
"the sky was taking on an apricot tint" (*as Google quotes)
Why do we not have more names for colors? Of course I know it depends on how our language developed and continues to, and in some cases we do have variation. Take the color Periwinkle for example. It's claimed as a blue, yet it does have its own name. Referring to it as blue is not wrong, nor is referring to it as Periwinkle. Some believe that Lavender and Periwinkle are synonymous, though they do have differences.
As you can see, both colors are somewhere in between purple and blue. But the main point here is that we all decide to group certain things together, and colors definitely fall under that category. The next level to examine then is color association. Why does one person perceive blue to be relaxing when another perceives it as cold? Again, personal feeling and emotion comes into play, but is often combined with cultural traditions. For example, some cultures maintain white as a color associated with mourning and do not use it in the home unless related to those purposes, while for others it is the hottest new minimal architecture and design trend.
Here is a small dissection of this by Apartment Therapy (do I love their photo-guided home and apartment tours!).
The bottom line I suppose is that we all like what we like. Sometimes that overlaps with trends and with what other people like. There are certainly classic color palettes for homes, offices, etc. for this reason. But we should also know when to embrace our preferences and break the mold! Part of why I am so passionate about my work, business, and enjoyment of DIY and furniture refinishing is that you can truly create your own dream. Let's all make that our motto for 2016 :).
Happy painting, designing, or whatever it is that you love to do.

Faith Haskell Tompkins passed away peacefully on March 8, 2016 at her winter home on Man-O-War Cay, Abaco, Bahamas. At her side were her son, John Tompkins; dear friend, Therese Balagna; loving caregivers Ivamae and Roy Russell; and faithful poodle, Susie. She was buried on the island next to her late husband, Jack.
Faith was born on July 31, 1916 in Sioux City, Iowa where she lived with her parents, Albert McClellan Haskell and Winifred Paine Haskell. She had two brothers, George Paine Haskell and Albert McClellan Haskell.
Faith completed two years of college before moving to New York City to work in an advertising agency. There she met Canadian born John Carlton Rainsford Tompkins who was working for his father at theÊHerald Tribune. They married in October 1939, honeymooned in Mexico and had their first child, Douglas Rainsford Tompkins in 1943 before Jack left to serve in World War II. A lifelong pilot, he flew daring glider missions for the Allied Forces.
Their second child, John Carlton Tompkins, was born in 1947. Later that year they moved to Millbrook, New York and eventually bought Butternut Farm where Faith would live for the rest of her life.Ê
Jack became an accomplished dealer of early American antiques. Faith worked as an interior decorator and antiques dealer, owning her own shop in town. The couple often collaborated on projects. They enjoyed a vibrant social life, leading many community activities, and were members of the Millbrook Golf & Tennis Club and the Millbrook Hunt. As congregation members of St. PeterÕs Lithgow Episcopal Church in Millbrook, they started an annual antiques auction to raise funds for the church.
They enjoyed travel and flew in their own small plane to visit friends, family and new places all over North and Central America.
In 1977 the couple sailed their boat, ÒMagic,Ó to the Caribbean, landing at Man-O-War Cay, where they later built a cottage to spend the winters. Faith became an active member of the community, volunteering in the elementary school. She established the Lorraine Lee Scholarship Fund to help Man-O-War students to go to college. Jack died in March 2003 and was buried in the local cemetery.
Her son, Douglas Rainsford Tompkins, died on December 8, 2015. She is survived by her brother Mac Haskell; her son John Tompkins and his son Kito Sosnowitz; by her daughter-in-law Kristine McDivitt Tompkins; by her granddaughters, Quincey Tompkins Imhoff and Summer Tompkins Walker.
Faith was loved and sustained by friends far and wide. She was eternally grateful for and often referred to her longtime caregivers Judy Mathers and Ivamae Russell as her 'best friends'.
This remarkable woman, known for her endless optimism will be sorely missed by many. A memorial service at St. PeterÕs Lithgow Church in Millbrook has been planned for Saturday, April 30, 2016 at 10:00am. Everyone is welcome.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Faith Haskell Tompkins Fund of the Marin Community Foundation, Novato, California. Funds will be distributed to a variety of her favorite charities.

In Search of Governing Gas Flow Mechanism through Metal Solid Foams
AbstractSolid foams have been intensely studied as promising structured catalytic internals. However, mechanisms governing flow and transport phenomena within the foam structures have not been properly addressed in the literature. The aim of this study was to consider such flow mechanisms based on our experimental results on flow resistance. Two mechanisms were considered: developing laminar flow in a short capillary channel (flow-through model), and flow around an immersed solid body, either a cylinder or sphere (flow-around model). Flow resistance experiments were performed on three aluminum foams of 10, 20, and 40 PPI (pores per inch), using a 57 mm ID test column filled with the foams studied. The foam morphology was examined using microtomography and optical microscopy to derive the geometric parameters applied in the model equations. The flow-through model provided an accuracy of 25% for the experiments. The model channel diameter was the foam cell diameter, and the channel length was the strut thickness. The accuracy of the flow-around model was only slightly worse (35%). It was difficult to establish the geometry of the immersed solid body (sphere or cylinder) because experiment characteristics tended to change from sphere to cylinder with increasing PPI value.

Stock ideas for March 28, 2013
Bharti Airtel:
SP Tulsian of sptulsian.com advises that one can short Bharti Airtel around Rs 300-305.
Tulsian told CNBC-TV18, "Bharti Airtel, I see Rs 280-282 as a strong support. Infact if you see this stock coming to those levels go and create long positions and if you see a price of Rs 305 exit from it. However now we are exactly seeing the stock ruling in the mid point so it is better that we watch for it, may be Rs 300-305 could be looked to short the stock but I won't create a long position at this stage."
GMR Infra:
Shardul Kulkarni of Angel Broking advises traders to hold their long positions in GMR Infrastructure but with a strict stop loss of Rs 20.40.
Kulkarni told CNBC-TV18, "Inspite of today's down move GMR Infrastructure is still showing some signs of probability moving towards Rs 22.80 to Rs 23. I think trader should hold on to their long positions in case of GMR but with a strict stop loss of Rs 20.40. If the stock were to fall below Rs 20.4 one will see further selling pressure comes into the counter
BOC India:
Shardul Kulkarni of Angel Broking is of the view that, one can accumulate BOC India around Rs 280-300 as the stock is expected to rally towards Rs 390-400 in next 6-8 weeks.
Kulkarni told CNBC-TV18, "In the midcap stocks I would look at very specific counters. Probability is that one may see some bit of that here and there. BOC India is one of them but it is a little longer-term trade. It is about 6 to 8 weeks. Wherein in case of BOC India, the stocks has given two upper circuits after that it has given a correction."
Sanjeev Agarwal, CEO of Dynamix Research & Capital Management advised selling Larsen and Toubro (L&T) around Rs 1,400-1,450 levels. He expects the stock to bounce back following rally in key benchmarks.
Agarwal told CNBC-TV18, "What I feel like the current leg of decline, what we are seeing from 5970 should finish in the next two-three days. So considering that the next leg will retrace a part of that, I expect L&T also to bounce back."

County Resources: 2020 Census and Opioids
Two new county resource pages are available on the ACCG website. County officials and staff now have access to information on the 2020 Census and the Opioid Crisis. Each page contains state and national resources and information. The pages can be accessed via the County Resources sub menu under the Georgia Counties tab on the ACCG homepage.
2020 Census
Since 1790, the U.S. Census Bureau has conducted a national census every ten years. The purpose of the census is to establish an accurate count of the nation's population. States and local governments are currently in the process of preparing for the upcoming 2020 Census, which will begin on April 1, 2020. To ensure that counties are well informed and taking all the necessary steps, ACCG created this resource center http://www.accg.org/2020_census.php.
Counties and the Opioid Crisis: Resources
Opioids are a class of drugs that include the illegal drug heroin, synthetic opioids such as fentanyl, and pain relievers available legally by prescription, such as oxycodone, hydrocodone, codeine, morphine, and many others. Between 2006 and 2016, nearly 7,000 lives were lost to the opioid epidemic in Georgia. Since the opioid epidemic has impacted county governments and its citizens, ACCG has compiled a list of resources to help counties evaluate and combat the effects of opioid use in their community http://www.accg.org/opioid_resources.php.
