Wales is the first of the four UK nations to have Shared Lives services across almost every Local Authority area.
The State of the Nations Report for 2015/16 is the most comprehensive survey of Shared Lives in Wales to date. It shows a total of 900 people using the service, supported by 707 Shared Lives carers. Shared Lives is currently undergoing a period of unprecedented growth, with the new health services being added to the core Shared Lives offer.
In 2015/16, a total of 165 people aged 65 and over were supported in Shared Lives. Using official Welsh Government statistics, if all authorities in Wales caught up with the best performing schemes, that number could more than double to 347. Doubling the number of people aged 65 and over using Shared Lives could create potential savings of more than £1 million.

The Newport Harbor High girls' volleyball team hits the road again to face a top-10 CIF Southern Section Division I-AA team.
Five days after sweeping defending section champion Long Beach Poly, the fifth-ranked Sailors play at No. 8 Santa Margarita on Tuesday at 5:30 p.m.
Last week's match between the Sailors and Jackrabbits featured the past two section champions.
The next contest for Newport Harbor is against the 2008 section champ, Santa Margarita.
The Eagles won their opener against then-No. 9 Santa Barbara. The match went the distance.
Another five-set match may be in the works.
Coach Dan Glenn, who is in his 26th season with the Sailors, has two senior standouts in USC-bound Cinnamon Sary and Alex Holbrook.

B2B marketers who artfully blend the four essential ingredients of inbound marketing will have a recipe for consistently delicious success.
In a recent Marketing Over Coffee podcast with John J. Wall and Christopher Penn, the hosts talked about how B2B marketing has been completely revamped and "torn to bits." Co-host John J. Wall, author of B2B Marketing Confessions said "what marketing people did fifteen years ago is nothing like what we're doing today."
One of the most important marketing developments in recent years is inbound marketing. Inbound marketing is about attracting attention online with remarkable content related to the customer problems you solve. This is in contrast to the traditional, interruptive outbound marketing that is losing the power and effectiveness it once enjoyed. And, inbound marketing costs cost considerably less per lead than outbound marketing leads.
To understand what makes for succcesful inbound B2B marketing, there are just four main ingredients: 1) traffic generation, 2) lead generation, 3) lead nurturing and 4) measurement. If any of your online marketing is not falling into one of these four areas, ask why not.
- Traffic Generation - When done properly, this is about getting not just more visitors to your site, but more of the right visitors. It includes things like website development, keyword research, search engine optimization, blogging and social media. All these areas build upon and strengthen the others, but arguably the most important for traffic generation is your company blog. Social media marketing thought leader Chris Brogan on blogs: "No matter what, the very first piece of social media real estate I'd start with is a blog."
- Lead Generation - Once you've got visitors to your site, you'll want to use calls to action, landing pages and offers (ebooks, buying guides, whitapapers, etc.) to capture the visitors key contact information and turn the visitor into an early stage lead. While this is known as "lead generation," it's really more like "contact info capture" because that lead is most likely not ready to buy from you. The lead at this point tends to be in an information gathering stage.
- Lead Nurturing - Now you start to warm up the lead. Lead nurturing (sometimes known as drip marketing) is where you send a series of automated emails to the lead in order to pre-qualify the lead and nurture it down the sales funnel before handing it off to sales for follow up. During the lead nurturing process you'll want to offer additional, relevant content related to what the lead has been doing on your site since becoming a lead (number of site visits, pages visited, downloaded content, etc).
- Analysis & Measurement - One of the advantages of Internet marketing is that you can measure just about everything. The primary benefit of marketing analysis and measurement is that you can take much of the guess work out of what to do next. By turning your marketing into an iterative process, you can identify what's working (and not working), find ways to improve, and implement more tactics to improve your marketing.

Occupy Lubbock members held picket signs and handed out literature Tuesday outside the building housing U.S. Rep. Randy Neugebauer's office.
Melissa Borrett of the Lubbock group said the five members of the group were participating in a national day of action on behalf of Occupy Congress.
Standing at the corners of University Avenue and Glenna Goodacre Boulevard, the protesters encountered heavy automobile traffic passing by, but group member Louise Sanders noted there was not much pedestrian traffic.
Neugebauer's Lubbock employees said they couldn't comment about the protesters who were outside.
They referred questions to Matt Crow, Neugebauer's communications director in Washington.
Crow said, "We live in a country where freedom of speech is a cornerstone of our democracy. Civil discourse on issues that people feel passionate about is good for our community and our country."
Borrett, who said she was one of the orginal three Occupy Lubbock members in October, said she believes the group has been successful in planting a seed and getting a dialogue started.
"We're trying to wake people up. We're trying to show people rock-solid proof their constitutional rights are being stripped away by our corrupt leaders, who have largely been paid off by big banks and other large corporations," she said.
The Occupy Lubbock group pitched tents in the southwest corner of the intersection of University Avenue and 19th Street in mid-October.
The tents are still up, they said.
Chris Martin said they normally get a lot of hecklers at 19th and University, but had not been heckled Tuesday at Glenna Goodacre and University.
Martin held a sign that read "Google NDAA now." He said several people who passed by in cars took out their cellphones, apparently to Google NDAA.
NDAA is the National Defense Authorization Act, which Borrett said takes away freedoms of American citizens.
"Basically, this whole NDAA thing should be common knowledge. You would be surprised how many people don't know anything about it," Martin said.
Occupy Lubbock began with three people walking with signs near the Student Union Building at Texas Tech, Borrett said.
The group now has 1,500 people who "like" it on Facebook, and Borrett said she thinks two-thirds of them live in Lubbock.

The most important lesson I've learned as an artist, a performing artist is:
You must make your own opportunities. An agent negotiates your price, you negotiate your worth. A manager gives you his or her observation of your type, your venues and how you present yourself. Nevertheless, in the final analysis, you and you alone, must be proactive in your own career.
Through the years, I have performed in over fifty stage productions since my early childhood. I am surprised at the advice my well-meaning friends and fellow actors give to me or others. On Yahoo Answers, there are countless questions, from small towns, big cities and villages across the world, asking either 1) How to I become a famous actor/actress; 2) How do I get an agent to become a famous actor/actress in movies; or 3) How do I get acting experience in my small town? Many saying they don't want to do theatre…only film…or the Twilight films…or work for Disney exclusively. Yes, most very young girls and boys and some; amazingly, high school seniors and early college teens and 20s.
The advice given to these questions is often way off-base – from just get an agent to pay for this agency [or that agency] and they'll put you in films. NO! You don't just "get an agent". Agents are business people and need clients who can book work. Thus, you need experience, lots of experience. Secondly, in my experience, 75% of the time, I booked more work on my own when I didn't have an agent.
There's no excuse, no matter where you are, for not finding opportunities to gain experience. Every city, town or village has some sort of place, school or community center that has or is open to entertainment or speakers. I was in a small town in Florida and found a tiny theater in a town that was two blocks long. The Lake Wales Little Theatre does good plays with really good turn-out for audiences. As a teen, on tour, I did a play in a town called Winnemucca, Nevada, where they had a huge, state-of-the-art theater called The Nixon Theatre. The cast of our musical out-numbered the audience. In fact, the whole town came to see the show and we all had Dairy Queen afterwards – the town and the cast!
Of course, it must be incredible to make a good living doing what you love. There have been lean times and more non-lean times with my acting career. Have I found opportunity? Yes, everywhere I go or have been. I've made more money as a stage manager – theaters always pay the crew. Actors are the last to be paid. Why? We are a dime a dozen. We all want to be noticed or famous and will work for free or low pay for that opportunity of recognition. Admit it, we all do it!
Do I want to be famous? Not necessarily, yet, if it means I will be paid every time I step on a stage. Then, count me in, "Yes!" What do I really want? To make a living as an actor! I do not seek riches in the millions. I can survive, even in New York, with $50,000 a year. The highest I have seen, in a lifetime of doing what I love [as often as I can], has been $20,000. It was not for acting, though, that was for administrative work. Still, I will not and cannot stop pursuing the dream. I am a Broadway actress/singer without a Broadway show.

Why Saturday's win was Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.'s most important yet
SAN ANTONIO – Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. entered the ring at a shockingly empty Alamodome on Saturday at something of a career crossroads at just 28-years old.
His commitment to the sport was being questioned, even by those close to him, and his fans appeared to be abandoning him.
The son of one of the greatest fighters in boxing history, Chavez did his part to regain some of his lost luster before 7,323 at the Alamodome by routing Bryan Vera in a fight he won by repeatedly clubbing Vera with a crunching right hand.
Judges scored it 117-110 twice and 114-113 for Chavez. Yahoo Sports scored it 118-109 for Chavez.
It was the second fight in a row where the attendance at one of Chavez's fights was less than expected, and in the early stages of Saturday's bout, the crowd couldn't seem to make up its mind whether it was for Chavez or Vera.
He drew roughly half the crowd to the Alamodome that he did in his last appearance in San Antonio, when he attracted 14,120 to watch him fight Marco Antonio Rubio on Feb. 4, 2012.
But he was clearly in shape and fought hard and well throughout. Whether it was enough to bring back his star is another question.
His father, Hall of Famer Julio Cesar Chavez Sr., told Top Rank promoter Bob Arum after the fight that his son still has work to do.
"He certainly was in shape," Arum said. "But as his father told me, unless he gets a real trainer and goes in with a real game plan and has somebody experienced in his corner, we're all fooling ourselves. That's not me saying that. That's somebody who knows boxing better than me. He thought Julio's performance was very good, but it was obvious there was no game plan."
Chavez injured his right hand in the 10th round and said he had difficulty throwing it in the final two rounds. If he had been able to land several in a row, he may have been able to stop Vera.
Vera, meanwhile, said he injured his left hand in the fourth and said it altered his game plan. He wanted to jab to take away Chavez's right, but wasn't able to throw it.
"You can see it's swollen and every time I touch it, it [hurts]," Vera said. "Every time I touched him with it, I could feel it. I abandoned the hard jab we worked on so much. We worked on throwing a hard, hard jab, and I got away from it."
But it was a different Chavez that was in front of him, too. When they fought at the StubHub Center in Carson, Calif., in September, Chavez struggled greatly to make weight and didn't appear to be in the fight mentally.
Most ringside observers scored it for Vera, though the judges had Chavez. In any event, it wasn't his shining hour and he paid the price on Saturday.
Fans stayed away in large numbers, questioning his commitment. He did his best to bring them back with an entertaining performance against a guy not as skilled but who was bubbling over with determination.
"I've got a tough chin," Vera said. "We grew up rough. My mom and dad raised us to be tough kids."
But he fought a guy equally as tough, particularly when the feeling strikes him.
Chavez is a free spirit who hasn't been able to fulfill his potential because he seems not to want to be great as much as those in his camp do.
He understood, however, that the burden was on him this time to not only come in shape, but to put on a show.
"I think the people are happy because I threw a lot more punches," Chavez said, a wide grin creasing his face. "Vera made a good fight, too."
The plans changed a bit for Chavez's next fight. He was tentatively set to meet WBA middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin in a July 12 pay-per-view, but Golovkin on Saturday pulled out of an April 26 bout on HBO because he's mourning his father's recent death.
It's uncertain when Golovkin will return, so Arum said he'd like to have Chavez fight on HBO on July 12 and then take on either Golovkin, Jean Pascal or Carl Froch if Froch beats George Groves on May 31.
Chavez liked the thought of a Golovkin match.
"I'm open to fighting anybody at 168 and maybe I'd come to 160," Chavez said. "I'm sorry to hear about Gennady's father. But I'm very excited to fight Gennady Golovkin. He's a great fighter. He's a strong guy and one of the best in the world. I'm ready to fight anybody."
Asked if he could make 160, Chavez beamed again.
"I think yes, but we'll have to see," he said.
In the co-feature, Vasyl Lomachenko dropped a split decision to Orlando Salido, coming up short in his bid to win the WBO featherweight title in his second pro fight.
Judges had it 116-112 and 115-113 for Salido and 115-113 for Lomachenko. Yahoo Sports had it 115-113 for Lomachenko.
Arum was disappointed that the two-time Olympic gold medalist didn't win the belt, but was angry at referee Laurence Cole, who according to HBO Sports replays missed at least five low blows thrown by Salido.
"That was horrible," Arum said of Cole's work. "It was a total joke."

Wildcrafted Organics is a small-batch, delightfully crafted line of skincare and teas, created by herbalist and nutritionist Nicole O'Sullivan. The products are carefully formulated, only 100% natural, and using Certified Organic ingredients where available. The skincare is packaged in Miron Violet Glass, which blocks all visible UV light, not only preserving the product within, but continuing to enhance the properties of the product it contains.
I've been using the Wild Rose Botanical Mist (travel size), Neroli Cleansing Oil (travel size) and Wildflowers Rejuvenating Serum (full size). I also received the Wild Hibiscus Beauty Tea.
Neroli Cleansing Oil (travel size)
I know the benefits of oil-cleansing, and I've been using an oil-based cleanser for sometime, but I was yet to use an entirely oil cleanser on my skin, and I must admit, I wasn't too thrilled at the prospect (I recently wrote about double-cleansing here).
The Neroli Cleansing Oil is a light golden liquid, light and rich, with the heavenly scent of orange blossoms. I used the recommended 6-8 pumps, and applying to dry skin, massage the oil all over the face to dislodge and dissolve make-up and other impurities on the skin. The oil cleanser dissolves make-up effortlessly, and after massaging for a few minutes, add a splash of water to transform the oil into a milky liquid, before removing with a warm wash-cloth.
I was pleasantly surprised at how good it actually feels to use an oil cleanser (prior to finishing with another cleanser), as it is the most effective at removing all traces of make-up, and left my skin feeling SO soft, cleansed and refreshed. The Neroli Cleansing Oil contains Camellia Oil, Rice Bran Oil, Pumpkin Seed Oil, Grapefruit and Ylang Ylang to rejuvenate the skin, help reduce the appearance of scars, balance sebum (oil) production, prevent premature ageing and improve the skin's elasticity.
Used as a single cleanse on bare skin, the Neroli Cleansing Oil still does not leave my skin feeling greasy, and I don't require a second cleanse to remove any residue, but rather to properly cleanse the skin.
I've been using it for a number of weeks now, and the travel size is 30ml, the full size 100ml. Based on how much product I have left, I think the full size would certainly last 4-6mths.
I'm really loving this cleansing oil, and it is such a wonderful experience to use each evening.
Wild Rose Botanical Mist (travel size pictured)
If you read my blog regularly, you will know how much I adore facial mists.
They enhance the penetration of your other skincare, keep the skin hydrated throughout the day, and can also be used pre and post-makeup application.
The Wild Rose Botanical Mist gently envelopes the skin in a beautifully hydrating mist, and the scent of roses. Some mists are just so-so, but this one is an absolute treat to use!
The mist falls gently over the skin (no squirting you in the face as some can do!), and deeply hydrates my skin. After generously misting the skin, I've been finding I need to use less of my other products. As this mist is so gentle, I also love to use it to set and refresh my make-up, or simply to refresh my complexion throughout the day (especially now we're heading into the warmer months!)
Wildflowers Rejuvenating Serum (full size)
I've fallen absolutely in love with everything I've tried from Wildcrafted Organics, but this would have to be one of the loveliest serums I've used. It is rich, and deeply hydrating, yet incredibly lightweight, and so potent I only need two pumps (which are small) to apply to my entire face. The Wildflowers Rejuvenating Serum absorbs quickly into the skin, leaving no trace of oiliness or greasiness, leaving my skin soft and supple.
Some serums or oils can tend to be a bit heavy, or leave my skin feeling like I have product on, but not with this. It absorbs fully and quickly. When I massage in my morning skincare, I have noticed that my skin has been much firmer since I've been using the Wildflowers Rejuvenating Serum - and I don't even have any loss of firmness or suppleness to be concerned about yet.
The Wildflowers Rejuvenating Serum contains CoQ10 and lipid squalane, both anti-ageing and necessary to keep the skin radiant and youthful.
The scent of this is slightly pungent, not as sweet as the other two products, but that is the nature of using 100% unadulterated botanical ingredients that have not been highly processed and destroyed.

Friday Easy Listening: On the Nature of Daylight
Here we are again, another Friday! Today's Friday Easy Listening song will be one that I've come across not too long ago in not just one….but 2 movies! It's an instrumental piece by Max Richter. I first heard it in The Arrival (which I loved!) and this song gives me the goosebumps (and brought me to tears). On Netflix I watched Jiro Dreams of Sushi and this was playing in a part of the movie. I can listen to this over and over again. I've always loved the sound created from playing the violin and this song embodies everything I love in the violin.
Happy Friday y'all!

Liam Taylor
Liam Taylor is a composer for multimedia and music technician from Cambridge. He has created a variety of pieces for Pop My Mind including electronic minimalism, sound designs and more traditional pop & rock compositions. Most intriguing are his creations centred around audio-visual interaction and image sonification.
Sonification is a way of digitally translating data or still visuals into audio. Liam takes works from the Pop My Mind community, and uses software to translate them into raw audio files, which are then manipulated in his recording studio. His pieces entitled Black Hole Sonification and Waves Sonification demonstrate the creative potential of sonification, with the latter introducing more reconizably "musical" ideas.
In 2016 Liam transformed these and other pieces into a live performance, using MIDI triggers, loopers and Video-DJ software, for Pop My Mind's Sonification Live event.
Anthony Wooding
Ant is a rather restless artist who experiments in different paints and digital format. Much of his work delves into spiritual and philosophical themes. In 2013 he had an exhibition of his 'Native American inspired' work in Ipswich Town Hall, and gave a talk about it, with which he subsequently went 'on the road'. He regularly appeared at The Freudian Sheep in Ipswich. 6 monthly exhibitions of work by local artists take place at his firm, Kerseys Solicitors, and the firm itself takes a major place in promoting the arts in Ipswich and beyond.
Ant uploaded to PMM a new work 'Non Pseudo Man' which was 'sonified' by Liam Taylor. He was fascinating to hear his own art work 'talk back' to him! Later he was private messaging at length about the PPM art and matters arty generally with fellow artist Michelle Bowden. He liked the strong images she creates, on the border of representational and abstract. They exchanged images and drawings in the messaging. This led her to upload the messaging string ITSELF as a work which he latter popped with his own work 'Conversation Piece'!
Also from this exchange Anthony created for PMM 'Green Man', based on a painting he had done but altered into something else entirely by successive digital layering and manipulation. The whole essence of the Green Man figure in history is how one can represent humanity at one within nature, not trying to dominate nature. Stone craftsmen in medieval churches used to sneak in 'green men' in little nooks as a kind of antidote to the homocentric religious images they were contracted to produce. Ant's original painting imagined a stain glass of Green Man in Church, an image resonating back to this juxtaposition. The modern digitalisation of his original 'Green Man' seems to build on this ancient tradition as the face seems to fade further back within the 'leafy' layers. When Samuel contacted Ant about 'Inspiring Installations' and said he would like to use one of his works, Ant says he knew immediately that it must be 'Green Man' that was the one he meant. Samuel said he would try to pop 'Green Man' with balloon art, and Ant really looks forward to seeing that.

Police Raid Toddler's Party After Parent's Light Birthday Cake Candles
How could a three-year-old's birthday party be complete without a birthday cake and candles? Some parents in the UK had the chance to find that out last week when they tried to light the candles on their son's cake at a kids' play center and someone called the cops.
Natasha Bent was having her son's third birthday party at Rumble Tumble, a family-oriented play place that often holds children's events. When she went to light the candles on little Oscar's cake, a staff member told her she wasn't allowed to do it. She and her family protested, but they were told that due to "health and safety rules," the candles could only be lit in a special area so they could be supervised.
The family decided to take the cake outside and light the candles in the parking lot, but they were still on Rumble Tumble property, so the staff called the police to report the safety violation. The intervening staff member also told the police that the family had been aggressive and attempted to intimidate her.
According to the boy's mother, "All we wanted to do was sing happy birthday and have Oscar blow out the candles. We just tried to reason with a staff member, but she said we were bullying her and told us to leave, saying she was going to call the police."
When police arrived, they realized no laws were being broken and no one was in danger, so no action was taken. A police spokesman said, "Officers established the dispute was over the level of service received and advice was given to all involved."

Determine the number of pages you will read. Then, share your thinking in a blog post. You must include two questions for your group to discuss.
17 thoughts on "The Orphan of Ellis Island- Jake, Alpha, Isabella"
We read pages 1-24. Wow! We found out so much about Dominic. He is an orphan and has gone through many foster families. Also never speaking to your classmates that must be tough. I can't imagine doing that. Also switching schools must become really hard. He isn't treated the best. I know this because his feet are cramped in his shoes. He says they are really old. Why doesn't he attempt to get friends? He said that he really wants a friend. Dominic went to Ellis Island for a field trip with his class. He hates it. His feet really hurt and he doesn't know anything about his family history because all of his family members died. I can't imagine living with Dominic's situation. He must be really brave to sneak away from his class. He seemed to really get scared and nervous when he got locked in the building. i can't believe that the Italian man answered him. Before he said that his last name might be Italian. I wonder if the man is someone he is related to. Why did his classmates and teacher not remember him? I think that he really needs someone that he likes and trusts so that way he can open up and talk about his situation.
we read 1-25 pages, wow i think we will have to put a ton of thoughts and thinking into these blogs. i think qt the end it was so cool how the grandpa said "yes little one im listing" i think its a little creepy that he answers back becasue arent these recordings. also i think the kids in dominicks class should stop being so mean to him but suprizingly i think that the teacher was kind of picking on him to because she was giving him looking when he was saying he had grandfather from itilay and his name was on the wall i thought that wasreally mean and THE TEACHER SHOULD STOP PICKING ON A STUDENT. also i think that dominic should stop being so shy and should try to make freinds. but its really hard for him moving to new schools like every month AND HE'S A ORPHAN. i think that it was super weird when he woke up after a few hours and all the lights were dimed and it was so quiet. i think it must be so hard not to know anything about his faimly and his parents died wich is so sad he just has a hard life and he's a child and he has to deal with it every single day.
also one question thati didnt understand is that how did the grandpa answer back on the phone. my other question is that why is the teacher so mean to Domonic and why does why is dominic so shy why doesnt he talk to the other kids
Wow Dominic is a kid that has moved from family to family.Right now he is at a school field trip and the school field trip is taking place at Ellis island. Dominc went into a room that was weird and then for some reason he goes in a place where he cannot hear or see any of his class mates.It was getting scary for Dominic but then ran into pictures that had families on them. One family had atleast 8 brothers which got Dominic to say I wish I had a brother .
Why does Dominic don't talk to the other kids?
Why is Dominic so shy?
We read pages 25-42. Wow! I can't believe that the guy on the other end of the phone talked to him. I wonder if the old man knew Dominic would fall asleep and wake up in Italy in 1908. I still think that the man might be related to him. Before Dominic wished that someone would burp in his ear. Now that he has traveled back in time I wonder if the time travel has anything to do with wishing. Why can Dominic speak and understand Italian. Also was he really sucked into a dream? If it is the old man's dream wouldn't it stay true to what really happened to the old man. I was surprised that Violetta was a goat. Dominic learned that the three boys he met were orphans. These are the first orphans he has met. Now that he sees them he realizes that his condition from where he is from is better. I wonder how the other people in the village will treat Dominic. Does Dominic enjoy this dream/ time travel thing?
We read pages 25-42. I think that it was super weird how he went back in time .I also think that this will make a great conversation for our book club. I thought it was super cool how he went back in time by a display phone. I think that Dominic was super surprised when he met Francesco as a kid and he met the other boys. I think it was really surprising to Dominic that the boys didn't know what dinosaurs were. Also, one question that I have is how did the traveling back in time technically work? Did he fall asleep and wake up in Italy? Also, another question I have is are the boys that were with Francesco his brothers?
The book The Orphan of Ellis Island is getting really good.I am surprised that Dominc is talking to an old man on a display phone and I can't believe that the old man is talking about him coming to America .Now Dominic is in the old man's dream and Dominic is freaking out and wanting to know the year it is now.When he figure's out that the year is 1908 he like what is happening right now.I wonder how he randomly just went into a dream.Why does Dominic want to know the year?Why does Dominic feel so so scared when this is probly the time he could probly find his own family.
We read 42-63. Wow! I learned how boys in Italy could be treated so harshly. I also learned that they can barely get any food. Also Dominic is finally realizing how he should of appreciated the food he got with his families. He is realizing how much better his life is compared to theirs. How will Dominic act when he goes back to the future? Will he appreciate anything more? Will he forget about his time travel event thing? It seems like some of the boys forgot to share with their family they were so hungry. I can't imagine being that hungry that I would do that. Also they have to work on an empty stomach. That is absurd. I wonder what the boys life would be like if they had a family. It seems like girls had a hard life in Italy. I think this because of the description of Nina. It seems like Salvatore isn't a well behaved boy. Although with those circumstances, it makes sense that someone wouldn't be well behaved because they have to work hard and barely get any food.
Why does dominic does not ask the to brothers to talk about there life.Now dominic is looking at a goat and saying he wish he could eat anything . This shows how much Dominic wants to eat.Why does dominic talk only about his harsh life.
we read pages 42-63 i think that on page 48 Dominic realized what it really meant to be hungry" Dominic thought about the foster families he stayed with how he didn't always like the meals they made he thought about all the times he went to bed hungry rather than try some of their strange looking chili or casseroles", he realized how he should have eaten the food how he kind of wasted it. i also realized how much they care for animals just like we do we have cats and dogs and they have goats. why were the kids treated that way and why whos sausage
We read pages 63-96. Wow! Dominic has finally found people who he is willing to consider family. That is a huge accomplishment for him. It bugs me for some reason that the boys he is with don't believe him about being from the future. I wonder if the boys actually killed Randizzi. Also is he faking to get rid of the boys? Will Dominic go to America? I also think that the boys are going to have to walk a lot. If they had parents I bet that they could have possibly taken a train. Would the boys have been mistreated so bad if they had their parents? I wonder if Violetta will be allowed on the boat. I think that she won't be allowed on. I wonder how the boys will react. What happens to the boys if they are found. If they killed Randizzi the tough guy, why could they be killed by ordinary people?
Wow, now they are going to America but they are going to America because one of the kids was accused of killing Randizzy which is the one that was kind of like the farmer in the story. Why do they think one of the kids is a murderer when he might have fallen down and had a heart attack?
We read pages 96-124. I can't believe that Salvatore died. It is so sad. That shows how it was much harder to treat illnesses back then. I wondered how Dominic would get a ticket. He unfortunately got it in a really sad way. Dominic has really started to have feelings about other people. He is crying about a death. Also we found out that Salvatore owned the key that he had or at least his key looked like Salvatore's. I thought that something crazy would happen. I was not expecting this. Will Dominic live with Antonio in America. Also how was the key passed down to Dominic if Salvatore died.
We read pages 124-144. I wondered how Francesco would react to leaving Violetta. I thought that he would sneak her on or something. I never really thought about how Dominic would react to the boat considering he is traveling back in time. One example of him reacting to the boat is when he went to the bathroom. I wonder if he even felt any cleaner. I don't blame him for acting that way. Another example is when he said that someone should complain to the boat company. I probably would have to. I was surprised to see that most of the talking on the boat was positive. I was surprised that Dominic put on Salvatore's shirt. The boys tried not to think or talk about Salvatore. I wonder if Dominic recognizes any of this from his learning.
How will Dominic act without the other boys? How will Dominic act to the older America?
We read from 144-end. Wow! It was a really exciting book. I thought it might have been a dream. I was surprised how Dominic woke up. I also think that Dominic will appreciate a lot more things than he used to because of the dream. I think that Dominic's dream has a good theme. I think the theme is family first. The author talks a lot about family in the authors note. I think that Dominic will also attempt to make more friends and find a family to stay with. I also liked how the author decided to make Dominic react to the city in a weird way. How will Dominic act after having that dream? Will he ever forget the dream? Will he ever tell the story?

What's a Wheel Alignment and When Do I Need One?
What's a Wheel Alignment and When Do I Need One?
When we notice our vehicle begins to pull to the right or left while in motion, things are no doubt starting to get out of whack – or for a better term - "out of alignment." To correct the problem, a wheel alignment requires attention from a certified mechanic who will perform the necessary maintenance and see to it that all the wheels are parallel and the rubber can once again firmly meet the road.
How Do Things Get Out Of Whack?
Driving over potholes is just one of the many ways our vehicles get out of alignment. Other reasons include driving on rough roads or taking the same bad road day after day, as well as general wear and tear, which can cause the wheels to become knocked out of place over time. Eventually things can get so rickety that it becomes obvious, especially when we have to continually fight with the steering wheel to keep control as we attempt to drive the straight and narrow.
When Should I Get an Alignment?
First of all, check your tires to be certain they are inflated correctly. If your tires are under - inflated, you may notice a distinct pull to one side or the other while driving, so be certain tires have the proper amount of air.
If you begin to notice your vehicle pulling to the left or right while driving on a straight road or highway, it's a good indication that an alignment may be needed. Another clue is to note the wear on the tires. If tire tread is frayed, striped or show more wear on one side than the other, it's a good sign that an alignment may be needed. Also, if your vehicle seems to move sideways while you're driving forward or if the rear is off to one side as the car is in forward motion, it's definitely time to take your vehicle in for a much needed alignment check-up.
How Much Does an Alignment Cost?
The cost of an alignment depends on the make and model of your vehicle, the extent of the damage and the rates in your area. Note that SUV and 4WD alignments may cost more. It's a good idea to get estimates from a few different service providers to choose which rates and services are best for you.

Do women need different retirement planning services than men? If you listen to the advertising campaigns of many brokerage companies and so-called "financial planners", the answer is yes. They offer "special programs" and "proprietary solutions" exclusively for women in a neatly wrapped package.
Women without partners do face different retirement challenges than men without partners. Generically speaking, women live longer, earned less in their working years and have a lower risk tolerance than their male counterparts. This does NOT mean, however, ...Continue Reading →

Dropbox Pulls a TurboTax
Also, to add your voice and show Dropbox there's still a demand from PowerPC users, you can go to their forums and post to this somewhat long thread, or even start your own.
As for Dropbox alternatives, I hear second-hand that SugarSync still works with their old Tiger client (direct download). Also, you can try Unison, which I wrote about awhile back. If you're syncing several PCs/devices with Dropbox and only one PowerPC Mac, perhaps you can sync your Dropbox folder with Unison. It's not totally seamless, but it may be workable. If you want to share files with a group of collaborators, you can look into Box.com. They support WebDAV as does Cyberduck, so uploading or downloading the latest file versions with Cyberduck as your client is simple and quick. And if you're accustomed to using Dropbox to transfer individual files to and from your iOS devices, DropCopy can do that for you, too (Tiger and Leopard users, download the Older Version).
As for me, I don't sync on the cloud. I use Unison to sync over my home network. I have to take my Luddite nomenclature seriously.
UPDATE: The editors at LowEndMac have put up a petition at Change.org: Continue to support Dropbox on Mac OS X 10.4 and 10.5.

Noooooooo….. :/ Bad.ReplyDelete
I'm using it a lot on my MiniG4 server. have to find something else… Maybe local sync to a IntelMac Dropbox, but then needs to have the Intel always on…
(Sorry for the previous post, deleted by mistake)
I tired setting up dropbox on my powerbook running wheezy, but that was a no go. Google drive right meets my needs .ReplyDelete
while checking for a Dropbox replacement for PPC, was investigating WebDAV sharing and came across a client for Mac OS starting from 8.1. Works very well. started WebDAV sharing on my MiniG4, and was able to connect from a Powerbook 1400c running 8.6.
Now , looking for a automatic WebDAVsync tool that would work as easily that Dropbox, found this :
Looks very good… but only for intel :/ Back to square one.
It's based a Sparkleshare…
Anyway still looking.
I'm one of the Editors on Low End Mac (several columns - mostly Apple, Tech and Gaming). I worked closely with Editor in Chief, Dan Knight and we posted a petition about PowerPC DropBox on Change.org. Feel free to join us in this cause by signing it. Even if it falls on deaf ears, at least all of us who made the effort gave it a shot. Thanks and feel free to visit us for more info.ReplyDelete

IDrive 2.0 still works on Mac OS X 10.5 PPC and it provides 5 GB for free!ReplyDelete
The best solution for me was to install on my NAS Synology 411j, Cloud Sync application. This app syncs your Dropbox with Synology, and any change made on the Synology is updated automatically on the Dropbox cloud! You just have to drag and drop the NAS dropbox folder from the Finder in your mac Settings/Account/Login Elements so is mounted directly when you boot the MacOS. The advantage of this and that the mac does not consume resources, all the work it does the Synology NAS. This solution is perfect for me, and not feel the lack of Dropbox on my PowerPC!ReplyDelete

Formula E Cancels Moscow ePrix 2016
Formula E has canceled the Moscow street race scheduled for June 4 due to "unforeseen circumstances related to road closures."
A statement from FIA read:
"While it is unfortunate news not to race in Moscow on June 4, we looked at a number of alternative options as a replacement but were not able to find a viable solution on that specific date," said Formula E CEO Alejandro Agag. "We explored all possibilities including returning to Monaco, but regrettably couldn't organise the change of venue on such short notice. I'd like to express my thanks to HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco, Mr. Michel Boeri, and the Automobile Club de Monaco who did their utmost to see Formula E return to the streets of the Principality for season two. We will now focus on the three remaining races in Berlin and the double-header in London, which I'm sure will deliver a thrilling conclusion in the battle for the championship."

Will Older Workers Ever Stop Working?
Older Americans feel the squeeze by falling asset values and finding themselves returning to the labor force. WSJ's Rachel Ensign joins Kelsey Hubbard on Lunch Break to discuss.

Hey everybody. Im new to this hobby, but Ive been doing the research, and it looks like Renard controllers are the best bang for your buck. Im considering buying the kit, but Im concerned that might be a bit above my soldering abilities. If anyone has some boards that have a few miles but are in good shape, please let me know! I dont have a huge budget, but thats why Im asking here!

If you're not a boxing fan and didn't shell out one cent to see Floyd Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao, then chances are you were somewhat pleased to hear the fight was a consensus dud.
Sure, the bout went down the way most hardcore fans and pundits thought, but that doesn't change the fact a lot of folks were pretty, pretty, pretty disappointed with the biggest boxing bout ever (Mayweather won it via unanimous decision if you've just returned to civilization).
Well, one man who wants to a smile back on the faces of combat sports fans is Bobby Green, who is scheduled to fight Al Iaquinta on July 15th. Recently Green appeared on "The MMA Hour", and while discussing his aggressive approach to fighting, "King" relayed the following (quote via MMA Fighting.com):
"That Mayweather fight has me sick," Green said. "We're gonna pay all this money to watch two guys have a sparring, dancing session? I don't know what the heck happened. To pay that type of money is ridiculous. I'm gonna give these people [back] their hard-earned money. They came to see a fight, here I come. I promise you I'm not going anywhere. I'm standing in the middle of the cage. Move me if you can."
On 'paper', Green-Iaquinta has "FOTN" potential all over it, since both guys are talented pugilists who like to come forward. Green will be looking to get back on track, as he was decisioned by Edson Barboza in his last outing, and had his eight fight winning streak snapped. In the aforementioned interview, Green accused Barboza of running away from him in that bout, and also levied the same accusation against Josh Thomson (who Green decisioned last July).
The outspoken fighter also offered this:
"I come to go out on my shield, bro," Green said. "If you're gonna beat me, send me out on my shield. I would rather lose in an honorable way than go to decisions."
It could be a doozy. No question. Iaquinta, meanwhile, earned a razor thin, split decision win over Jorge Masvidal in April and has won four in a row.
UFC FN 71 will be hosted by the Valley View Casino Center in San Diego.

Yeah, I think moving this post to Sundays is going to be a permanent thing from here on out, just too little time for me to read everything and have a post on Saturday morning without it feeling like work. So, I hope you like checking the internet on Sunday, or whatever.
Justice League of America #1
I was so confused reading this book, not because of any of the content, but just trying to figure out why it existed. I mean, it isn't really part of any current continuity, it doesn't have any special angle other than "we got rid of all the unique characters" and, well… I don't know, it just seems redundant at times… but it also seems pretty fucking cool as well? I guess this book is the marquee title in DC's current "Story first, continuity next" thought process, because it makes a good case for continuity being too restrictive to telling cool stories, because the sort of shit that happens in this issue is definitely pretty cool when you think about it as a whole, very movie-like… you might even say "cinematic" oooooooh. Sure, when you try and piece together when this takes place, where are the other characters, etc. none of it makes any sense, but if you just decide to not care about that sort of stuff, the story presented definitely could go some places.
Secret Six #3
Well, the launch of this book was definitely botched, wasn't it? Had to go way back to figure out where things left off in the second issue. They were trapped together in some box, now they're not? I guess? Sure, whatever. Overall, I'm liking this title, but every now and then I do get that same sort of feeling that I got with Gail Simone's Batgirl where it just feels to me like she's pandering to her die-hard fans. It's always in the "touching" scenes, notably the one between Catman and Strix with the dinner table, everyone's just talking sweetly to each other, calling everyone shit like "Buttercup" and I'm just sitting here going "this is tumblr bait." I mean, its not bad, but it's just… eehhh to me. This sort of stuff has just seemingly increased in Simone's work, it just seems like one of those check boxes that has to be hit. But anyways, there's sort of a big twist, one that I didn't catch the first time around, but it's pretty cool… Not going to spoil the last page, but I find it funny that for however long Gail Simone had that rumored Plastic Man project, THAT was the character she reveals.
Low #7
And Low comes back with some Rick Remender-Ass Rick Remender shit. That ending man, sheesh… that said, killing your lover never looked so pretty thanks to Greg Tocchini's art. The only problem I had with this issue was that I was so confused as to who the fuck I was reading. For a second I thought "Is this a time jump, is this Stel for some reason? No… one of the daughters?" and I was right on the second guess, but it's never mentioned anywhere in the book, you just have to go to the letters page to find out, which isn't something I usually do. ANYWAYS. I like that this book will seemingly jump around to the family members stranded under the ocean and how that expands the very small world they all live in.
Yo, this book still reminds me of Mirrors Edge, which is even more apparent now that Mirror's Edge Catalyst is a thing with a trailer and a release date now. I mean, that's pretty much where my thoughts begin and end on this book. I think it's pretty cool, but the story isn't exactly grab you tight captivating. It's fun, looks good, still very reminiscent of a video game. Only real problem is that it feels super decompressed at times, but oh well.
Southern Bastards #9
I sort of feel bad for liking this book so much, because it's just fucked up shit happening to somewhat decent people most of the time, but the fucked up shit makes for the best sort of drama. It's also become clear by now that the book is going to be shifting protaganists each arc, as we went from Coach Boss to the Sheriff who used to play for Boss as the focus of the story. I like how detailed this book can be, example being the last few pages where you see the Sheriff take out and put his wedding ring back on, which may indicate he's been hiding a family to keep them safe? Or to go with that last page of narration, he straight up just doesn't give a fuck about them. Southern Bastards! ::Jazz hands:: Jason Aaron and Latour are just building quite the little world here, you could almost see it as a TV sh—oh wait, it is going to be a TV show now, maybe… (it just got optioned by FX). Well that's not surprising.
Empty Zone #1
This was one of those books that I saw and went "that looks cool" without really knowing much about it before i picked it up… and yeah, it went about as well as you'd expect. Cybernetic lady… bounty hunter I think? I don't know. Just a whole lot of vague premises and characters, didn't really grasp me from the start, and given that I kind of don't have time for books to dick around and get to the point these days, if I don't get hooked immediately, it's very likely I'm just going to pass… like now. Art was great though.
Revival #30
Time has sort of flown by, i mean, we're already at issue #30 of this series… That's a lot! Quite a lot of change went into this book from last issue to now… mainly because a bunch of characters died and a lot of shit got blown up last issue, so one would think shit would tend to change based off that. I like when books make big shifts like this one, keeps things fresh, so now we're going from a small town story to a small town story which now just so happens to include a big overt military operation which is rounding up the reviver population into concentration camps. FUN! Hooray for things getting complicated thus keeping the book compelling!
Rick and Morty #3
Okay, the main story of this issue was fine and all, but what was really worth it was the back up story, which was AMAZING, thus why it was given the cover of the issue. Seriously. Just perfect grim Rick and Morty humor for those four or five pages. Just amazing. Give that story all the Eisners, that is all.

Ok, this is not what you might have expected, and you might hate us for the heart attack for certain people, but you must admit - morally and ethically, ProfitClicking, the HYIP industry gold standart, is bankrupt.
Oh yea, they do pay of course, but...
The HYIP industry is at a craze. The same people make a lot of money, and promise the world. They join every new site, move their downline, cashout fast due to referral commission and leave a lot of broken hearts in their paths (and empty pockets).
YourCreativeCrew is here as a free to join and earn - FOREVER. We revived YCC for a certain reason, and at the same time, had our inner talks about the HYIP industry. Despite the many requests we get to add more HYIPs, YCC did its study and saw that HYIP is not different than gambling. People LOSE money. And guess what - people can lose their homes! Break families apart. Just because they are being sold a dream that cannot be true (mostly due to some owner greed or inexperience).
We once promoted HYIPs, as we and a lot of others earned from them. But as we continued to lead the industry, we noticed those left behind. These are sad stories. We actually spent time and money helping some of them to come out of the holes (big ones...).
The truth is - there's not 1 HYIP that remained with us for the long term. Not 1. As far as short term profit go - yes, money can be made. The effects are devastating, because of 2 main reasons.
The first - the stress of members who join with financial risk might cause offline health problems. As "funny" as it sounds, there is vast importance to "offline health".
The second - most people can't handle success. Those who succeed once or twice, aquire a tendency to invest more and more. This is no different than a casino. Only this time, the casino seems to be managed by many owners. Lately, this has changed. The same HYIP owners, open program after program - moving their current database to the other program, in order to prolong payments, and increase their "profits".
If nothing else, learn patience. This is an exponential business.
This means, that if in the first month, you made 0.02$, in the next you'll make 0.04$. Then 0.08$.
In two years time, of some effort and a lot of patience, you'll be making 83886.08$ per month!
And by using the right system (like the new YCC system), it will keep growing almost on autopilot!
YourCreativeCrew was first developed to help its members make money. The first idea was to promote 20dollars2surf .
Ever since then, we've grown beyond any expectation. Then we our lapse - hacker issues, server issues, time and health issues among the team.
20dollars2surf is not enough on its own. Actually, almost no program is enough on its own, because, we found out, that most admins are non professionals. This might result in scams - scams that might result from non professionality.
It happened to Zeek (they were afraid to tell members that there's no revenue from the penny auction and lower the daily revenue), and it happened to many Get-Paid-To-Click sites.
YourCreativeCrew decided, that along promoting other programs, that we deem safe, we will implement our own revenue share program via our points system.
It will be very unique and profitable for everyone involved, but as mentioned above - you must excercise patience.
YourCreativeCrew stops endorsing HYIP programs with no backbone and real proof from owners for their legitimicy. For now, it means ALL HYIP programs are considered such. You can already see the changes in the downline builder.
Patience. This is the most important factor in making money in this industry (aside from cheating...).
If someone is successful, he has patience. He built his income with his skills, and knew that sometimes it takes time to reap what you saw...
Bear with us as we help so many of you who are hurt from the HYIP industry to rise from its ashes.
Help us help others by spreading the word. We will reward you beyond your dreams just for trying.
Yours in success,
Yonatan Kra

This question was asked many times. Here are some clarifications to the most pressing questions asked.
Upon setup, it prompts you to finish registration and fill in some details. It might first load in French, but you can change the language to several (English among them...).
After that, when active, it leaves a rotating banner (ad) on your desktop on top of other programs. Also, from time to time a single popup will show (only one at a time - so if a popup is on, no other will appear). You don't have to actually stay near the computer when it is on. Depends on your screen size, a small banner is not such a bother, but again, you can activate the cashbar when you are away... in addition, you can move the cashbar on your screen to a more convenient location of your choice.
Every month, you can make up to 10,000 points using the cash bar. You can also earn bonuses from time to time (by clicking a special banner that shows "surfer bonus" that appears from time to time). So when you get to 10,000 points, you don't have to use the bar anymore if you don't want to.
Is it safe?
We are using it for several months now - and nothing (bad) happened. Moreover, we are using several anti-maleware and antiviruse softwares and no alert popped up.
Besides earning money by using the cash bar. YourCreativeCrew gives you an incentive to reach 10,000 points as fast as you can. The first 6 to reach 10,000 points will be able to choose to either get a banner rotating for the following month or get their chosen program to the downline builder.

Firstly I received my first fabric postcard in the mail yesterday. This is the first in the swap I joined and I'm loving it. Butterflies are on my favourites list.
Next are some fabrics purchased to compliment some stash fabrics. These will go towards three different projects. They are not specifically grouped so if I don't point out which fabrics are which, then no one will be any the wiser, hey Kerry.
I've had making another kaleidoscope on my mind and when I saw this fabric I had to have it, and of course the book to go along with the project. Iwill be strong and not start this quilt until I have a couple of finishes first.
Yesterday at patchwork I took along my queen bed quilt and did some more work on it. It's so close to being finished, if I knuckle down I plan to complete the top within the next three weeks. Then I'll decide if I'll tackle the quilting myself or save some pennies and send it away to be quilted.
Lastly my pour neglected roses are real troopers. They practically grow themselves. Here is Peter Frankenfeld (pink) and Just Joey (apricot) with the most delicious scents.
Off to do some sewing now. My bag for Linda's swap is almost finished and I've cut out a little something to go with it.
Quilting Wishes

Hi there
I can understand the desire to be with your kids, but man, this is a weird situation... The biggest danger i see, is creating a precedent: now you'll agree with this, but keep in mind, you'll raise the bar forever. What worries me is another aspect you didn't expand in your post: is this desire supposed to be a one time thing, a curiosity that needs to be satisfied or it's presented to you like a new life-style that you're supposed to agree and live with? honestly, if the second part is your answer, why bother? It's clear that you'll become a stranger and it's only a matter of time before she'll find another lonely woman who'll want to settle, meaning there will be a lot of pressure involved in bailing you out. If the first part is your answer, i do agree with you that good times easily lead to something else. Caution is advised and i'll consider holding my ground, making it clear that although you agree with satisfying her curiosity, you don't agree with this certain way of doing it and a replacement should be found.
Cheers, Mike

Mediterranean countries are experiencing the fastest rates of urban sprawl in Europe, and concern about potential negative environmental effects is increasing. This expansion is occurring in a context of declining rural activities, where highly diverse cultural landscapes are giving way to homogenous low-density housing developments and entirely new forms of human-nature relations. In the present study we offer an analysis of the socio-ecological transformation of Matadepera, a wealthy suburb of metropolitan Barcelona that evolved out of a rural village in¬habited by poor peasants who farmed rain-fed cropland and managed the forest. By cross-checking data from land-cover maps, documentary sources and semi-structured interviews with elderly local peasants, we managed to gain a detailed understanding of the driving forces behind land cover transformation and give voice to perceptions of landscape change among a quite neglected social group. Our results indicate dramatic urban sprawl onto former fields and woods over the last decades, driven by a combination of different factors. They also show that oral sources can yield information on landscape changes not available from any other kind of source. Moreover, by recovering valuable and so far neglected personal memories we hope to provide further stimulus to policy actions aimed at charting a more balanced development path for the area.

Monday a supreme court in the United States upheld the cheek swabbing of arrested or jailed individuals in order to obtain DNA samples. The decision was a complete division for the justices that came to the decision.
From Boston.Com:
''Make no mistake about it: because of today's decision, your DNA can be taken and entered into a national database if you are ever arrested, rightly or wrongly, and for whatever reason,'' conservative Justice Antonin Scalia said in a sharp dissent which he read aloud in the courtroom. ''This will solve some extra crimes, to be sure. But so would taking your DNA when you fly on an airplane — surely the TSA must know the 'identity' of the flying public. For that matter, so would taking your children's DNA when they start public school.''
