How to be the Initial: Soaring Higher, Generating Actually Greater
There's some thing really fascinating regarding becoming upon atmosphere, defying the law of gravity as well as just about all. Some people tend to be happy in order to simply relax and revel in the actual airplane trip. Other people wish to accomplish the actual soaring. If you're some of those individuals, realize that everything begins upon understanding how to be the initial.
Ensuring from it Very first
There are many points that you'll have to perform in order to understand how to be a initial. However very first, you have to appear heavy inside your self and become particular with this particular profession proceed. Even though it's already been your own desire because you had been 2, keep in mind that the street in order to soaring is really a lengthy as well as tortuous 1.
Selecting a Particular Profession Route
Understanding how to be the initial, as well as achieving success for the reason that respect, doesn't imply that you could travel any type of airplane. You need to know very first what type of initial you need to end up being.
Are you contemplating being a industrial initial, soaring 747s as well as responsible for a few 100 approximately individuals? Are you currently fantasizing to be in charge of individuals mma fighter aircraft? Or even perform you want to be considered a initial since you passed down the Cessna out of your grandpa as well as you want to give it a try?
Learning How to be the Initial
It's very essential to begin with one of these since the training, instruction as well as licensure you'll want to go through for every profession route differs. Certain, a person would need to complete the four-year aviation program inside a university or college very first however next, the street (and what you ought to do) may hand in to a number of pathways.
If you wish to be considered a industrial trip initial, for example, a person would need to teach for any particular quantity of several hours inside a particular atmosphere. It's also different when you wish to become listed on the actual army, certainly. The actual permit you receive changes as well.
Price as well as Length associated with How to be the Initial
Right now this really is something which may benefit your own ear upward much more. Once we possess pointed out previously, the street upon how to be the initial is actually lengthy as well as difficult. Due to which, you could also need to invest a lot too.
Form 4 many years within college, a person would need to invest regarding forty several hours associated with trip period because your own real instruction. However you'll have to include three or four more time in order to every hr (40×3=120) with regard to planning, a little bit of reading through along with other stuff that your own teacher might request you to perform. As well as perform be aware which that's just the actual minimal!
Read the college tuition charge associated with various colleges providing aviation programs. The thing is, the actual prices vary significantly therefore all of us truly can't develop a typical. Nevertheless, working out by itself will most likely price 1000s of dollars. Once again, that is at least. Should you save money amount of time in instruction, it will cost much more as well.
However do not be concerned an excessive amount of concerning the price. In the end, you'll be generating dual or even multiple associated with that which you possess invested an individual will be soaring. Should you really don't have sufficient, dedication along with a great college that provides the scholarship or grant can assist you to.

Coding of DNA Collection Surveys Completed
Over the summer, Master's student Taiye Winful (UNC-Charlotte) (pictured below) led a Howard University team that completed the coding of all of the 464 surveys collected during our recent DNA Collection event. The purpose of this initial coding was to lay a foundation for the development of two databases: 1. a Continental African Genomic Database (CAGD) and 2. an African Diasporic Genomic Database (ADGD). She and her team have now begun a descriptive analysis of the surveys that will address the following questions: 1) How many individuals were in each database location (CAGD vs ADGD)? 2) What were the proportions of Howard University community members sampled? 3) What were the gender distributions in each database? 4) What was the place of birth of participants? What geographical areas are not yet represented? 5) What are the nationalities and ethnicities of participants? 6) What is the average age of participants and the range in ages? 7) What is the current residential state of participants? Which states are missing in our distribution?
These descriptive results will be incorporated into Taiye's Master's thesis and provide a rationale for subsequent targeted sampling in the fall and winter to augment the developing databases. Taiye hopes to come to Howard University for graduate studies for her Ph.D. in biology in 2018****

The United States is the world's Broadway. It is the big stage. It is where the world's entertainers, artists, athletes, businesspeople and politicians are ultimately tested. Many of them in their own, sometimes very large, home ponds are gigantic fish. But the big stage can swallow them up and shrink them to chorus-like size.
Justin Trudeau was in the United States last week. He was made the subject of a profile on 60 Minutes ,the big stage of television news programs, he was the guest of a high-focus, glamorous State Dinner, the big stage of Washington-as-world-capital events, he was the anointed other side of high-level talks with President Obama on a high-level subject, climate change, the big stage of political relevance. He was treated as if he mattered. He acted as if he belonged.
Only days before had been the Academy Awards. The world's greatest film actors and directors gathered in Hollywood. Some who are among the best-known people on the planet, Dame-this, or Sir-that, impossibly stylish and rich, and when their names were announced, they teared up, gushed, and thanked "The Academy." It is what the big stage does.
I don't know that what Mr. Trudeau said on 60 Minutes was of great significance. It may not be that what he and President Obama agreed to will have any big effect on climate change. Mr. Trudeau is young and good-looking. He is new. His father was an important prime minister. It is because of this, his critics say, that he was given this big stage; that he has done nothing to earn it. But Mr. Trudeau was put there because of what all these things add up to. He represents possibility, in a world, and in the big stage of the United States, that is looking for possibility.
And once on that big stage, Mr. Trudeau did the one thing more important than deliver his lines. He was not star-struck. It seemed not to occur to him that he should be. It seemed not to occur to him that a Canadian prime minister would be. He seemed comfortable as what he is. He seemed comfortable about what Canada is.

David Germano
David Germano teaches and researches Tibetan and Buddhist Studies at the University of Virginia, and is director of the Tibet Center (www.uvatibetcenter.org), the Tibetan and Himalayan Library (www.thlib.org, THL), the Tibet Participatory Culture Initiative, and SHANTI (Social Sciences, Humanities, and Arts Network of Technological Initiatives, www.shanti.virginia.edu).
David teaches literary Tibetan courses at intermediate to advanced levels. He has introduced creative digital tools to facilitate language teaching, learning, and documentation of spoken and literary Tibetan. A central aspect of this work has focused on the use of video to better learn spoken discourse in a variety of natural social settings as well as more intellectual and literary uses. In this context, he has led efforts over fifteen years in to create hundreds of hours of field recordings of oral traditions, literary readings, interviews, and improvised social enactments across Tibet, and now Bhutan. In order to render these recordings optimally useful, Germano has led software initiatives at developing comprehensive audio-video management systems, including innovative management of multi-lingual and timecoded transcripts that can be searched and dynamically played back from search results. An additional feature of these systems is their connection to geographical and subject data created by scholars to contextualize speech.
On the literary side, Germano has led the creation of thematic research archives of Tibetan literature with deep cataloging and powerful searching features. Finally, he has developed a rich historical dictionary framework for uploading, editing, and publishing complex lexicographical data. He is presently working with staff to integrate these so that students and scholars can go from transcripts and texts directly to dictionary term entries, and likewise proceed from terms to analytical searches ranging over Tibetan speech recordings and literary texts.

Surprised myself
"What do you do?"
I've had to answer this question with every person I talk to. Insurances, landlards, agents, phone companies and weird bum in coffee shops. And unbeknowest to me, my subconscious has been using every chance to practice the elevator speech for me, refining, condensing and meticulously measuring the impact of each word.
It was like I was looking at a person in a movie from above. The person spoke with confidence and in a deliberate manner, timing everyword to the heartbeat of the audience and pacing for maximum effect. No fear, no doubt and bemused at the absurdity of the situation: "When did I get these skills?"
But, it wasn't really a surprise. A 30 people audience is nothing at all compared to a few hundred people in a ballroom. It's a surprise because I had written off any benefit I might have gained from that part of my past. It explains the calm nerve, but what about the pitch? The perfect pacing and the tone? That came out of nowhere.
Which reminded me of a talk I had with my dad when we were discussing universities and career paths. A very disheartening exchange in my memory where he tear apart any possible future I could have in anything that involves speaking and human to human contacts by pointing out an immgrant's inherent disability in speaking ability and people's perception of our race.
But evidence points to the other direction. I find myself excelling in these non-technical roles and thinking back on that exchange. "What if I never heard it was impossible?". What if I never heard the hidden dissaproval from my dad's silence when I tried to show him what I was working on? Until one after another, he tore apart my enthusiasm and I learned my lesson to hide what I was working on because I can already hear his mocking disaproval before Ieven try to explain. Anything that is not doctor, engineer or business is a failure in his eyes and a waste of life. Yet it is exactly that attitude which bogged down innovation in Asian socities while empowering those in the west.
I've learned to keep my silence, but everytime I do, I can still hear the dissapproving tone and the comments he'd make. Because I know that whatever I work on is usually too new and volatile and is not a "normal" job. Yet looking back, time and time again, those things have come out to be great and would've been even more wonderful if I actually stuck with them. I have no business complaining, because it all comes from me not being strong enough to break that tie and not care.
The ghost is a psychological construct. For others when starting a new idea, they start out from scratch and for a few start out from encouragement. For me, I have to fight off the ghost first and that is the difference.

Generally there are three treatment stages for stroke: prevention, therapy immediately after the stroke, and post-stroke rehabilitation. To prevent a first or recurrent stroke (about 25 per cent of people who recovered from their first stroke will have another one within 5 years), the treatment is to identify and eradicate the risk factors, mentioned above. Acute stroke therapies try to stop a stroke while it is happening. In post-stroke rehabilitation physical therapy is essential, helping individuals to overcome disabilities that result from stroke damage. For the success of rehabilitating a stroke patient, the physical therapist should be able to reach all of these goals:, reduce muscles spasms, pain and stiffness, increase strength and function of affected arm and leg, roll/move in bed/sit/stand, retrain normal patterns of movement, increase energy levels, improvement of the balance and walking, reduce the risk of falls and increase independence and quality of life. [1]
In the initial phase of the stroke, while the patient is still in bed, physical therapist should move passively the arms and legs of the patient, always trying to ask the patient cooperation.
After the initial phase, the primary objective of the physical therapist is to help the patients to learn how to walk again. For that, the physical therapist will start firstly to increase the range of motion, the muscle tone, reduce the spasticity, improve his strength and to treat any shoulder pain, that is very common in stroke patients, like glenohumeral subluxation, development of adhesive capsulitis, neuritis of the nervus suprascapularis, bursitis subdeltoidea, tendovaginitis of the biceps tendons, neuropathy of the plexus brachialis, arthritis, thalamic pain, development of spasticity, Shoulder Hand Syndrome (SHS) or Sympathetic Reflex Dystrophy (SRD) [2].
Then will teach the patient how to move in bed, to prevent the formation of pressure ulceration. Once the patient is able to turn over in bed, the next step is to teach the patient to sit up unsupported in the bed. For this goal, the physical therapist will need to strengthen the trunk muscles in the seated position, promote the movement of the pelvis (anterior and posterior bascules), and the dissociation of waists, and the patients balance. Balance is often related to the terms stability and postural control. According to Pollock et al, sitting balance can be defined as "achieving, maintaining or restoring stability during a seated position or activity". In rehabilitation, a satisfactory sitting balance is considered an important prerequisite for functional daily activities, such as getting dressed, reaching and eating. Remedying the asymmetric distribution of the body weight while sitting is regarded as an important part of the treatment of patients with stroke. Doing reaching exercises while the physical therapist tries to assure the stability of the trunk could be a good way to improve the patient's stability. Some instruments to measure the sitting balance are the Trunk Control Test and the Time Balance Test [2].
After this, the physical therapist will teach the patient how to transfer from the bed to the wheelchair and vice-versa, and from the wheelchair to toilet and vice-versa. Being able to rise from a chair by oneself is an essential part of ADL activities, such as getting dressed, going to the toilet and walking. Some aspects that might influence standing up can be divided into factors that can be related to the chair (e.g. height of the seat), the patient (e.g. muscle strength in the legs), or strategy (e.g. speed, placing of the feet or attention). Some activities that the physical therapist can perform to evaluate the progression are: being to sit without support for 1 minute to 20 minutes, being able to stand up from a chair independently, being able to walk independently with or without walking aid, being able to walk a maximum of 10 steps. Exercising the standing up and sitting down results in an improvement of: the symmetry of balance during standing up and sitting down, the severity of the paresis, the speed of standing up and sitting down, walking speed, physical endurance and frequency of falls. It is recommended to do exercises of standing up and sitting down 30 minutes per day during several weeks to improve the left-right distribution of the body weight during these position changes [2].
After this goal is completed and well secure, the physical therapist usually will have the patient try to start walking, on the bars, then with assistive material (quadruped cane, two crutches, one crutch and a cane). Firstly, the patient should walk on a regular surface, then on an irregular surface (e.g. matress). To reach this goal there needs to be muscle strength, namely from the anti-gravity muscles, muscle endurance, and balance. Strength training is defined as the isometric or isokinetic strengthening of muscles by means of static or repetitive eccentric and/or concentric resistance exercises. Endurance training is defined as a training form with the primary goal of improving physical endurance, which is usually performed on a treadmill, rowing or cycle ergometer, often combined with exercises to improve ADL, focusing on repetitive exercises, such as standing up, sitting down, training on exercise steps and/or climbing stairs. Muscle strengthening has been found to have a positive effect on the strength of the paretic leg and on comfortable walking speed, and no negative effects were found in terms of increased spasticity, decreasing the muscle tone. Endurance training seems to show a positive trend towards improvement of physical endurance. Current knowledge suggests that a combination of strength and endurance training, using workstation (aerobics/fitness) offers added value for walking ability in all phases. It is recommended to train a minimum frequency of 2 to 3 times a week for a minimum of 30 minutes, with the help of fitness equipment or functional exercises, such as climbing stairs and walking over long distances on different surfaces. The balance can be improved by exercising stance control with visual feedback while standing on a force platform [2].
There some techniques that can be used by the physical therapist to improve the patient motor impairment caused by the stroke [1]:
Neurodevelopment treatment (Bobath)
Neurodevelopment treatment aims at inhibiting spasticity and synergies using inhibitory postures and movements and to facilitate normal autonomic responses that are involved in voluntary movement, which includes the gradual withdrawal of the direct input of the practitioner leading to increased independence.
Alexander technique
The Alexander technique works to change movement habits in our everyday activities. Improves the freedom of movement balance support and coordination. Teaches the use of the appropriate amount of effort for a particular activity giving you more energy for all your activities.
Rolfing consists on the manipulation of the soft tissues or myofacial system to allow for proper alignment and organization of the whole body in gravity. It helps loosen up spastic muscles and smoothes out gait patterns and helps keep the spine alignment.
Vojta Therapy (reflex locomotion)
The Vojta therapy is a highly specialized type of physical therapy that is designed to primarily enhance the motor development of a child. The treatment has added benefits of improvements in cognition fine motor breathing and digestion.
Muscle Re-education Approach
The ultimate goal of this approach is the development of co-ordinated movement patterns training begin with learning the control of individual muscles on a cognitive level.
Knott and Voss PNF Approach
PNF relies on quick stretch and manual resistance of muscle activation of the limbs in functional directions which are often spiral or diagonal.
Roods Sensorimotor Approach
The Roods Sensorimotor Approach involves superficial cutaneous stimulation using stroking, brushing, icing, or muscle stimulation with vibration to evoke voluntary activation.
The final goal of physical therapy in rehabilitating stroke patients is to achieve the best level of function and independence. Muscle weakness and loss of co-ordination are the primary impairments that affect gait after stroke, but impaired cardio-respiratory fitness may secondarily affect gait performance but limiting walking endurance.
Good balance and gait performance are key issues and main goals on the rehabilitation of stroke patients. [3]

Chinese naval fleet patrols southernmost East Vietnam Sea
All crew took part in an oath-taking ceremony on Tuesday morning at the reef, saying they are "determined to safeguard the country's sovereignty on the south China sea". The four ships from the Nanhai Fleet of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy left Sanya from south China's Hainan Province on March the 19th. The fleet patrolled the islets and reefs of Truong Sa Islands between March the 23th and 25th. It will now head for the western Pacific Ocean via the Bashi Channel to continue its high-seas training.

This image came from Muggle.Net but the recipe is right out of Dinah's cookbook.
Being an organized, overall type A person, I struggled with the structure of the book. Within each chapter, many of the recipes fall into various categories. Several of the chapters do have a specific food theme - for example Chapter Six is breakfast and Eight is desserts and snacks, but many of the other chapters are a bit more random. That being said, I think the book is best digested from cover to cover - reading the introduction for each recipe, the historical information and then the recipe itself.
Here's a rendition of Pumpkin Juice, the recipe directly from the cookbook but whipped up over at Heed the Feed. Want to see how they did it? Click HERE. They assured us it is a very delicious fruity drink, so don't let the pumpkin puree scare you!

The transition from child to caregiver is never easy – especially when the situation involves both parents. Today we're sharing a Q&A from Andrew - whose father, a successful lawyer, former collegiate athlete, and the family patriarch, was diagnosed with dementia in February 2014.
As the leader of their healthy, wholesome family of four, he earned the income, took care of finances, and dealt with taxes. As he became unable to do take care of such things, Andrew's mother, who never had to take on these responsibilities, became completely overwhelmed. The stress and the slow loss of her companion of 50 years sent her into a nervous breakdown. Instead of dealing with one slowly deteriorating parent, Andrew and his sister and suddenly found themselves in a complete free fall dealing with both. While Andrew's sister lives near their parents, Andrew is much further away, and has tried to handle everything from afar.
We spoke to Andrew about his responsibilities and challenges during his transitioning role to caregiver:
What have your caregiving responsibilities entailed?
When the bottom had completely fallen out, we needed to find them (my parents) a safe place to live. We contacted the VNA and other local caregivers (in Cleveland, Ohio) and began a search for a retirement home where the situation would be more stable. Aside from that, I've tried to take on everything that can be addressed without being local. I've taken on paying the bills, taxes, investments, and buying a car for my mother. It is challenging.
What's the most challenging part about being a caregiver?
Not knowing. You get a crash course in everything you avoided thinking about and it can be very overwhelming.
What do you think your experience would be like if you lived closer?
It seems very disruptive for my sister. She gets most of phone calls, entertains my parents and is constantly taking them both to various appointments.
How do you split up caregiving duties with your sister?
As I mentioned, I take care of anything that can be taken care of remotely and I try to get home often so that I can take some of the heat off of her.
Do you feel like you've had support/resources to turn to during this experience?
Yes and no. Many people have reached out, which is great, but there's only so much even the most caring person can do. It is good to know that others have shared similar experiences, and maybe I should try some of the groups that exist, but in a way I'm sort of afraid to know how bad things get. And there we are back to not knowing.
If you find yourself in a similar scenario, remember that there are many resources out there to help guide you. Contact your local hospital system to learn about support groups or join an online fourm to hear about others in similar situations.
If you've been through a challenge like Andrew, we'd love to hear your story. Write to us at info (at) spectrahealth (dot) us with the subject "Caregiver story" to share your experience.

Mix your Linens with Animal Prints
Every now and then you want to let down your hair and bring out your wild side. Well you can do the same with your home interiors. If you love your simple linens but want to add a little excitement or adventure into your home's decor, bring in some hints of animal print. You can go classic black and white with zebra print or bold gold and black with tiger stripes. If you prefer to keep it light with airy neutral tones, a giraffe print can work quite nicely with a soft mix of caramel brown and white. No matter what animal it is, you can mix it with your linens and transform your home from boring to brave and bold. You want to make sure you don't go overboard with the prints,though. Too much animal print can be a bit gaudy. Along with your linens, you want to make sure you have a few other solid colored pieces that allow the entire color scheme to mesh well.
Linens by Didriks has fine linen fabric that will look beautiful in any home.

Life, on the other side of you: A Study of Life, Death, and Renewal, is a pseudo biographical volume about life, death, and renewal after my first wife's battle with cancer, her death, my struggles to get back in to life, and my renewal after meeting Tracy and having my son. Interesting is the fact that there are one million new widows/widowers added to the rolls annually, yet all that's been published to deal with the challenges of life after death are sterile opuses which essentially detail the stages of grief by psychologist and psychiatrist from a clinical perspective. My book provides great biblical reference, and shares 30 great lessons which shaped my recovery.

Listen to a Houston Matters interview with Major General Price about his new book!
"Life, on the other side of you: A Study of Life, Death, and Renewal by Barrye Price is excellent on many different levels. It tells a great love story (really two great love stories). It tells of the tragedy, victory, relapse, small triumphs, and finally final heartbreak of cancer. It tells of the inner circle around one who suffers; the close circle of close friends, colleagues, and church leaders; and the outer circle of supportive but confused friends, troops, and church congregants. It is an importantly simple spiritual story of how, although tragic circumstances teach us about faith, all of us have so much more to learn. It is written extremely well in an engaging, sometimes appropriately humorous style, and then later a gripping style (that even makes an old Army guy tear up!).
"Finally, the lessons at the end are great. They are derived from the story, but would have been distracting if they were included in the text. When I finished the book, I was ready to get the lessons at the end. I am sure that there will be some people, especially those who have lost a spouse or are helping those who lost a spouse, who will turn first to the lessons. That is okay, too, because those readers can later read the story that the lessons are based upon.
"Life on the Other Side is a great read for everyone and a must read for those who are helping those suffering from the tragedy of cancer."

- Listen to a Houston Matters interview with Major General Price about his new book!
- Karen Gross, Former President Southern Vermont College:
- "This book is about peace - coming to peace, this is a book about, as the title suggests, the "other side".... it is about Elaine but it is about life and next chapters and finding a way to remember that is powerful and meaningful and gives value to what could not be."
- Wes Moore, Bestselling Author of The Other Wes Moore:
- "MG Price has lived an extraordinary life of service, and this book is his latest contribution to our society. It is an eloquent, powerful prose that asks us to lead with not just our heads, but with our hearts."
- HR McMaster, Bestselling Author of Dereliction of Duty:
- "It is a brilliant, moving, important, and it will be a tremendous gift to all who read it. "
- Mark Radar, Attorney at Law:
- "When Elaine Price died in June of 2001 after a nearly two-year battle with Hodgkin's disease, two things happened: part of her husband died with her, but the part that survived wrote a compelling, evocative memoir of their shared struggle. At once instructive, heart-felt, and revealing, Barrye Price describes his determination to help Elaine survive, then, when it becomes clear that she will not, looks within himself as he courageously set about restoring his life through his faith and his lifelong self- determination. This is not the story of a battle lost, but rather one of a life renewed."
- Brigadier General (Retired) Clare Adams-Ender (Former Chief, Army Nurse Corps):
- "Because I have had similar experiences and have gone through many similar experiences with others, I am quite reflective and spent much time thinking after reading passages. It is powerful and I believe it would add tremendously to the dearth of knowledge that exists on this subject. The writing and message is superbly done. Truly a gifted writer."
- Dr. Naomi Verdugo, Assistant Deputy for Recruiting, US Army:
- "Moving and romantic and thought-provoking, all at the same time. I found myself wanting to know more about other topics."
- Lieutenant General Patricia Horoho, Surgeon General, US Army
- "Wow. The beginning of this is absolutely powerful and the emotions and intensity is palpable. The loss of your father at an early age appeared to have given you a heart with empathy, one that was experienced in sorrow, joy and pain and one that has an enormous capacity to love. Your journey and relationship with God is humbling, inspiring and heartfelt. You did a beautiful job describing God's constant love, presence and gift of hope. You are a gifted writer. There are many out there who would benefit from reading your story."
- Delores Johnson, Department of the Army Senior Executive Service
- "Immensely personal which puts the reader inside your head and heart. You must publish this story for men, women will read it because the lessons apply equally to both sexes but this is a story that reminds each of us that men grieve as deeply as women. And it will added benefit of showing what "peace" looks like on the other side of the grief."

The Ledger-Enquirer's Ben Wright writes (I know I used that phrase before, but I like it) that Columbus Council public agenda regulars Paul Olson, Bert Coker, and Bill Madison oppose moving the public agenda to the end of the meetings, with Madison also opposing the use of a traffic light to keep speakers within the 5-minute limit. The only problem I see with moving it is the perception that it is a move to chill free speech. Whether it really is or not is debatable. And, as far as I am concerned, I have no problem with holding speakers to a five-minute limit. If 5 minutes isn't enough to get your message across, send an email. All councilors have email addresses.
Columbus Council is to be commended for giving time to citizens to speak to them. Not to do it will require a new ordinance, because the public agenda is placed right before the city manager agenda by an ordinance that Council passed years ago. Council could vote not to have a public agenda at all if it wished to do that. The First Amendment guarantees free speech, but it doesn't specify where, when, or how much time a speaker gets. And, as my good friend, former Bob Barr Jordan High band member (he played great trumpet) and fellow Rotarian, Robert George says, "it doesn't require that anyone has to listen."
Council votes on the proposal to move the public agenda next week.

Scenarios of future Loss and Damage - Attributable Climate Change, Adaptation Capacity, and Residual Risks
Organizers: Carl Friedrich Schleussner (Climate Analytics), Friederike Otto (Oxford University), Raya Muttarak (Wittgenstein Center)
Future Loss and Damage, understood here as impacts of climate change that are not avoided through adaptation at a certain point in time, will be largely determined by the extent of global temperature increase and the capacity to adapt to the climate hazards. Trajectories of socio-economic transformations that countries follow will be instrumental for creating their adaptive capacity. Besides economic indicators, also human capital factors like education and institutional dimensions such as regulatory quality, gender equality, rule of law, control of corruption and political stability are key enablers, or barriers for adaptation. To assess future risks by climate change, however, an understanding of how the time scales of overcoming such barriers compare with the continuing emergence of climate hazards due to anthropogenic climate change is essential. Scenarios of future Loss and Damage are thereby intrinsically linked to both climate as well as socio-economic scenarios and will bring together different communities and approaches to scenario building.
Consequently, we welcome a wide range of contributions from climate detection and attribution and analysis of time scales of emergence of impacts to socio-economic scenario building for adaptive capacity and barriers, as well as approaches to assess loss and damage. We explicitly welcome contributions by the sectoral climate impact community on attribution as well as on sectorial adaptation barriers and scenario development. Wolfgang Lutz has agreed to set the scene for our session with a solicited keynote on "Forecasting societies' adaptive capacities through a demographic metabolism model."

Quick heads up: Four big economic events are happening today.
From Calculated Risk:
• At 8:15 AM, the ADP Employment Report for April. This report is for private payrolls only (no government). The consensus is for 210,000 payroll jobs added in April, up from 191,000 in March.• At 8:30 AM, Q1 GDP (advance estimate). This is the advance estimate of Q1 GDP from the BEA. The consensus is that real GDP increased 1.1% annualized in Q1.• At 9:45 AM, the Chicago Purchasing Managers Index for April. The consensus is for an increase to 56.9, up from 55.9 in March.• At 2:00 PM, the FOMC Meeting Announcement. No change in interest rates is expected (for a long time). However the FOMC is expected to reduce QE3 asset purchases by $10 billion per month at this meeting.
Each of these will be paid attention to closely, and we'll be covering each LIVE.

"From sales to completion this was handled with care and professionalism...
The salesman arranged without being asked for mulch to match existing landscaping. The manager who selected the trees found us top of the line. The installation crew was particularly skilled and placed extra focus on such detail so as not to disturb any surrounding lawn making it look as though the trees have been in place for years. Some written care instructions at the time of planting would have been more helpful. Good to have a company that will answer any questions, follow-up and tweak if it becomes necessary."
★★★★★ - Dave, Pinckney
"Your crew did a great job...
on my landscape cleanup and mulching. Everything looks great!"
★★★★★ - Econoprint, Pinckney
"Todd's Services created a beautiful lawn and landscape...
for our new home, I greatly appreciate how they worked to make my yard one of the nicest on the block!!"

For Tyler Oakley, no tribute to historic acts of queer resistance would be complete without a visit to New York's Stonewall Inn.
The 28-year-old YouTube personality, author and queer rights activist dropped by Stonewall, which is considered the symbolic birthplace of the modern LGBTQ rights movement, for the latest installment of his new "Chosen Family" video series. One of the many highlights of the clip, which can be viewed above, is Oakley's candid interview with Stonewall veteran Tree Sequoia, who is now a bartender at the historic Greenwich Village venue.
Though the clip was released 48 years after Stonewall's patrons fought back in a June 28, 1969 police raid, Sequoia tells Oakley he worries about that legacy being brushed aside as LGBTQ people continue to make social strides. "The younger generation [has] no idea what we went through to give them what they have," Sequoia, now 76, says. "They have 100 percent more than I had when I was a gay guy coming to the Village in the '50s and '60s. We had nothing."
Oakley also chatted with Stonewall's co-owner Stacy Lentz, who sees parallels between the challenges LGBTQ people experienced in 1969 with those they now face in America's current political climate.
"This was founded on resistance. This was founded on standing up," Lentz says. "We need everybody now... whether it's our trans friends, whether it's people of color, whether it's immigrants ― whatever it is ― those issues matter now. You have your Stonewall 1969 moment right now to stand up, come out, march and fight back."
Oakley told HuffPost that the chance to speak with Sequoia and Lentz just ahead of the anniversary of the Stonewall uprising was "really powerful."
"Bars like the Stonewall Inn have always been sanctuaries for queer people," he said. "Hearing a firsthand account from an activist like Tree Sequoia reminded me of how important it is to carry on the legacy of resistance of our LGBTQ+ elders that began almost 50 years ago."
Check out the trailer for Oakley's "Chosen Family" video series below, then be sure to watch more of his videos here.

Harlem Run Global: Berlin Marathon 2017
This past September Alison and I had the honor of taking a trip to Berlin in preparation for the marathon. We would've loved to be the ones running, but on this journey we were set to cheer others on.
Early on Wednesday we met up at the pop-up store near Moritzplatz and took a 45-minute bus ride along with our other #TeamUA members (District Running Collective and Resident Runners) and runners from all over Europe to an old, abandoned CIA listening station in Teufelsberg. The tagline for their campaign is #RunVerboten, which means "Run Forbidden". We literally ran through grounds closed off to the public, plastered with beautiful works of grafitti. We ran to multiple stations of calisthenics led by endurance athletes and made it to the top of the structure, where the night was closed out to the sounds of a local hip-hop artist on the rise!
After sight-seeing the remainder of the week, courtesy of our two feet and 24-hour bike rentals, it was time to cheer on the runners! The entire week we saw great running weather, but the day of the marathon it started pouring! We missed the rain making it out to 21KM (13.1mi) marker, but the runners didn't. Weather can often throw a wrench in your plans of attaining your goal, but you just have to push through it. That's exactly what everyone did. Alison & I might not have been running, but we were all in with the cheer squad. First it was the halfway mark and then we set up shop at 36.5KM!
We were out for a while, and saw so many familiar faces, including Eric & Ray (Resident Runners) as well as Cliff & Matt (District Running Collective). There were a lot of fast runners out on that course, but we're always aware of those who take on the 26.2 mile challenge and take a bit longer to finish. We remained out as long as we could for runners finish 5 hours and greater. We'll do the same thing when we cheer at Mile 22 for the upcoming NYC Marathon.
But first things first...anyone register for the lottery of the 2018 Berlin Marathon? Let us know if you get in. Most importantly, let us know if you'll be cheering with us at Mile 22 for the NYC Marathon.

Sarine travelled to TUMO to lead a three-week workshop combining off-the-beaten path adventures around Armenia with interactive classroom learning.
She helped students develop their own writing voice and photography skills, as well as turn travel memories into crafted works. Each article they wrote offers an insider's perspective which inspires and encourages travel to and around the Armenian countryside. It shows the rich cultural and natural heritage of the country and shares the stories of its people.
Why AVE[LOOK]?
Aveluk (Ավելուկ : mountain sorrel) is a plant native to Armenia, commonly found in Armenian cuisine, but so little spoken about, which reminds us of our villages and our dadiks, our grandmothers.
In all we do, we aim to always look beyond the obvious. Students' stories show what it feels like to be present in the places we explore, revealing the transformative power of travel through inspiring examples and anecdotes.

For All Points-Of-The-View.
Reparation is institutionalizational victimization - the call for reparations for slavery is call for the victimization of a people. ~KA #sophic
Views: 371
is that it? is that the totality of the discussion? if it is then whoever proffered this thought obviously does not know what reparations is
I proposed that PREMISE.
And that is all it is and that is all there is.
Anything else is an explanation.
There now an opportunity for someone else to question and or propose an alternative.
For too long our communities have been bullied and cowed, as you have just done, and made to be afraid to speak up and question the dictates and rhetoric arising from the loudest voices among us.
Here is the opportunity (to cease complaining as a victim and venting reflexive anger) to make the case for reparation.
You have not enlightened anyone or forward your case.
So what is reparation?
To whom is reparation paid?
Pray tell...?
As a people, we are unique. No name. No language. No history. No religion. No culture or traditions that were not all handed to us by our enemy. Reparations? Yes, the root for reparations is "repair". Are we in need of repair? Yes. Pleading with our enemy to show compassion and fairness for reparations is indeed a victimization of our people in that it is a waste of time, money and energy. Our enemy cannot repair us and indeed, his history screams loud and clear that his ultimate goal is our destruction. His biggest problem is how to destroy us while giving the impression that he is caring for us.
If one considers the totality of our situation and weighs the alternatives, one must come to the conclusion that our "repair" will never come from our enemy. Then where will our "repair" come from?
It will begin with the humbling recognition that we are created beings and thus, we have a creator. Our centuries long humiliation, dehumanization, degradation, miseducation and alienation are all well earned due to our ancestors stiff necked, hard headed, stubborn, rebellious, self willed, easily deceived attitude and behavior.
We have been subjected to this process to learn an important lesson - humility and obedience.
Yet, in spite of these centuries of afflictions, many of us continue to display the same attitudes and behaviors of our ancestors. Thus, most of our people along with most of our enemies, will perish in the "great tribulation" that is currently underway, although most pay no attention, as predicted.
So, yes, I agree that the quest for reparations is a victimization of deluded and ignorant people who have no idea who they are and worse, don't care. Their number 1 concern is self, to their detriment and self destruction. It's all written down, but then, who reads today, right? Shalom family.
You said we have "no name"?
Have you heard of Kwanzaa?
Kujichagulia (koo-jee-cha-goo-LEE-ah)
Self Determination To define ourselves, name ourselves, Go ahead pick a name.
You say we have "No language"?
Have you heard of Twi, Zulu, Xhosa, Amharic, Tigrinya,.....
Go ahead pick one. Speak it.
You say we have "no history"?
Have you heard of Asante, Zimbabwe, Zulu, the kingdoms and empires of Egypt, Nubia and Ethiopia?
You say we have "No religion. No culture or traditions"?
Have you heard of the Akan, Nyame, the Orisha, Ogun.....
Find one. Why not.
Marcus Garvey pointed the way - UNIA - United Negro IMPROVEMENT Association.
Are we not men like all other men?
"Whatever man has done man can do", Marcus Garvey.
It is the nature of the world to victimize victims.
Wolves sheep. Wolves are afraid of man.
For the gazelles they are not lion food.
They run faster and carry sharp horns.
"Pleading with our enemy to show compassion and fairness for reparations is indeed a victimization of our people in that it is a waste of time, money and energy. Our enemy cannot repair us.."
"compassion and fairness for reparations" is the language of a victim.
Men make demands - offers that cannot be refused.
What do expect to receive in recompense?
Nothing give to up will make a difference.
We only can free our African Mind.
Up you mighty race, you can accomplish what you will: said Marcus Garvey.
Question is: What do you will?
Plead for compassion, justice...?
Or practice the principles of Kwanzaa daily?
Africans, give up being victims.
Heed, Bob Marley's call: "Emancipate YOURSELF from mental slavery...none but y/OURSELF can free y/OUR mind" (sic)
Stop revelling in our own self importance and work free the 29.8 million people STILL living in physical slavery - the products of whose labor we delight in and kill/murder each other to possess.
Africans, give up being victims.
Heed, Bob Marley's call: "Emancipate YOURSELF from mental slavery...none but y/OURSELF can free y/OUR mind" (sic)
Stop revelling in our own self importance and work free the 29.8 million people STILL living in physical slavery - the products of whose labor we delight in and kill/murder each other to possess.
reparations is not about someone giving us anything...we can and must name ourselves, feed ourselves, cloth ourselves, shelter ourselves etc. Reparations is justice...when someone has done a great harm to you what do you do? turn the other cheek or seek redress? how can I burn your house down not once but several times, rape your daughters your wife your mother repeatedly, force you to build my world with no recompense while I treat you lower than a dog and you do nothing about it? everyday you walk by the big house on the hill that I stole from your family, and watch my children play in the yard while your children are relegated to ghettos and mud pies and you simply bow your head as you walk by..when you finally freed yourself from my direct bondage I turned around and extorted reparations from you because of the lost revenue I would incur from losing your free labor...and you ask why reparations? Reparations is Justice
Victim mentality is an acquired (learned) personality trait in which a person tends to regard him or herself as a victim of the negative actions of others, and to think, speak and act as if that were the case - even in the absence of clear evidence. It depends on habitual thought processes and attribution. MORE... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victim_mentality
so you're saying that the Maafa did not happen, you're saying that the Jews were acting as victims when they sought for and received reparations and is still seeking and gaining justice against the Nazis...you're saying that the Japanese were simply acting as victims and should not have sought for reparations for justice for their imprisonment, you're saying that the United States, Britain , France were acting as victims and should not have received reparations from the Germans...or is it simply ok for everyone else to get Justice for wrongs committed against them except of course us Afrikans
What happened.
To stand "UP YOU MIGHTY RACE..." we must not be victimized by that past.
Free our AFRICAN MIND...."none but y/OURSELF can free y/OUR mind"
Stop, looking and comparing ourselves to others...
Jews are the Pan-ultimate VICTIMS.
We are them - save the same God - that call them and us to use victimhood continual elicit sympathy and dominate others.
Their woe is me is more than 2,000 years old.
We are 500 years in the same cycle.
As for Japan they were ALWAY FREE - MENTALLY.
Give it up as Garvey implore us.
Stand up as men.
Spend our time and energies building and creating!
Heed, Bob Marley's call: "Emancipate YOURSELF from mental slavery...NONE but y/OURSELF can free y/OUR mind" (sic)

Thank you to all the amazing people who came out for the Intro to Nature Drawing Workshop at Toronto Botanical Garden! That would be more specifically: Tamila, Stacey, Evan, Jan, Matt, Victoria, Kay, Nancy, Barbara, Deborah, Christine and Vesna.
It was a fabulous 6 weeks of experimenting with different drawing media and subjects from nature. Everyone should be very proud of their artwork! I hope that you all left inspired and will make drawing part of your daily life.
Here are photos from the last day along with pics from an earlier session. Although several people weren't able to attend the final class, most were present and there was a bit of sadness that the workshop was over.
A special mention goes to Kay Anderson, who at age 86, had never taken an art class till now!
Not only did Kay make some lovely drawings, she now has a new past time to share with her daughters, Barbara and Deborah, who also took part of the workshop. A family that draws together, stays together!
Special thanks to staff at TBG for helping with all the behind the scenes prep work that goes into delivering a class.
- Alan

EP 002: How to Start a Virtual Assistant Agency with Heather Heinrichs
Ever wanted to start your own Virtual Assistant agency? In this episode I talk to Heather Heinrich from MyVA Heather. She left her full-time job to become a virtual assistant. Eventually she was able to build up her business and outsource to other VAs. She now has a thriving VA agency that allows her to outsource, delegate tasks to other people and have more free time to work on her business rather than in her business. Heather is now able to spend less hours per day working and more time with her family.
In this interview, Heather explains how she started, how she found clients and her tips for managing her team.

Home Security - make your home secure
How to secure your home
What if things got really bad with what's going on with our economic situation. Even the best of people may turn to theft if they are hungery and need to feed their family, not to mention the bad guys who see fit to take advantage of a bad situation. So you may have to be more protective of your property and family and take extra steps to increase security and awareness. You should try to make your home as secure as possible so intruders will move on to easier targets.
Light up your property
Using security lights
Security lights outside that have motion detectors are a good idea and should be used. Solar powered security lights with motion detection are available and great tom have if the power is out. Make sure the lights cover what would be the dark areas of your property. There are remote, wireless sensors available that have receivers that you screw into light socket with bulb screwed into sensor. You would then place the motion detector in a location of your choice. The solar lights are not the best or longest lasting but they are sure great when the power is out so you have some protection, better than nothing at all.
Prowler detected by motion light
If someone is at your door, check them out through your peep hole and talk to them through the door - you do not have to open the door. Its sad that we can't trust prople the way it used to be , there are alot of scamers out there to take advantage of us. Use precautions and if you have a bad feeling about someone at your door, heed it.
Securing your landscape
For home security you should plant thorny plants or bushes under or around windows and around areas that you feel would be areas of approach to help you control an intruders movement. If you have a fence, plant some thorny plants along the fence to make it harder to climb. If you have alot of plants in your yard that would provide hiding places for someone, consider removing some or thinning them out. If you wish to keep all your landscaping, maybe you could string wire among the plants to create trip hazards or make it difficult to sneek through.
Dogs and other animals
Dogs can be good for alerting you of something wrong outside, they have an uncanny sense of hearing something that is not right. Even a small dog makes a good alarm even if too small to help defend you.. A large dog would be more capable of defending you. If you have a dog that barks at any noise it hears, it will do no good at alerting you of a problem, you will not know what's for real. Even if you have a close neighbor with a dog, it will be of benefit to you.
If you do not have a dog, you could even put out large food and water bowls as if there is a dog on the property.
Doors and windows
Your doors and windows may not be secure enough. If your doors open outward, they are more difficult to break into. It makes them hard to kick in because the force is into the door frame. Doors that open inward have only the lock and dead bolt holding it in place and are easier to break in. If your door opens inward you can get security bars to help strengthen the door frame. Locks are not always secure, most can be easily picked or destroyed to gain entry to the home, choose a lock with ANSI Grade 1 classification . Make sure you install a peep hole in the doors if you do not have one. Research on line to find the best methods to secure your doors and windows.

A need fοr fаѕt auto loan financing isn't always a sign οf impatience. Getting a car loan quickly saves уου thousands whеn buying a car. Walk іntο a dealership οr third party sale wіth financing already lined up аnd уου hаνе thе advantage іn bargaining fοr a better deal аnd tο act fаѕt οn іt.
Online Fаѕt Auto Loan Financing
Today's best source fοr fаѕt auto loan financing іѕ thе Internet wіth аll thе advantages οf a traditional lender lіkе nο application fee, nο down payment аnd negotiating ability οf having cash іn hand. Thеn thеrе аrе additional advantages οf аn online service lіkе easy application, nearly instant approval, 24-hour online access tο уουr account аnd a money-saving automatic payment option. Bυt thе best іѕ thеіr interest rates being 1 tο 2% lower thаn thе national average.
Before mаkіng a commitment fοr аn online auto-financing loan, consider thе additional requirements. If уου're buying a classic car οr motorcycle, loan products аrе limited, wіth more restrictions. Alѕο online lenders аrе reluctant tο fund loans under $7,000 οr over $75,000.
Bаd Credit Cаn Bе An Issue
Fοr fаѕt auto loan financing online, credit problems аrе more οf аn issue thаn wіth dealerships. Bυt credit problems саn bе overcome wіth lenders offering higher risk loans. Thеѕе hаνе more restrictions аnd slightly higher rates.
First οf аll dесіdе οn уουr figures. Hοw much exactly аrе уου willing tο pay, hοw much dο уου give fοr down payment, hοw much per month? Bе realistic іn thеѕе assessments tο accurately compare financing options.
Eventually thе monthly maintenance аnd annual fee wіll еnd up costing уου more thаn уου want fοr credit. If уου want a card, look fοr one thаt hаѕ one οf thе two bυt nοt both. Tο bе better organized, mаkе a qυісk comparison chart wіth thе card names, set up fees, interest rates (variable οr fixed), monthly аnd annual fees. Mention аlѕο іf a single late payment саn lead tο increased interest rate. Cards mау bе expensive bυt worth reestablishing уουr credit wіth, іf уου look fοr thе best deal around.
Differences On Interest Rates
Wіth thеѕе issues settled, dесіdе whеrе уου'll find thе best terms. Aѕ a general rule, thе best interest rates аrе frοm credit unions, followed bу banks аnd dealerships being thе wοrѕt. Aѕ per specific promotions, dealerships аnd online auto financing establishments саn аlѕο offer competitive rates.
Next, comes applying fοr thе loan. Apart frοm information οn thе car, mοѕt lenders wіll inquire аbουt income аnd expenses. Ensure уου keep rent documentation, house payments, pay stubs, tax returns аnd οthеr sources οf income аnd assets wіth уου.
Thеrе's a world οf dіffеrеnсе between used auto financing аnd nеw car financing. Whіlе thе former mаkеѕ better deals thаn thе latter, іt doesn't apply tο used car financing thеrе аrе qυісk loan finance available аѕ well. Used cars being less profitable fοr lenders аnd more risky, thеrе аrе a lot more restrictions аnd higher rates thаn nеw car loans.

There are no words to describe how fun this weekend with Joe and Angela turned out to be! Joe asked for a simple, low key thing to celebrate his 50th birthday, so, naturally, she invited a ton of their friends to the beach and had the biggest extravaganza ever! Complete with custom made Koozies, Tervis cups, an Instagram cutout, a professional chef, and well, me and A.J. :)
When we walked in the front door Friday night and the collective greeting was "catch up" we knew we were going to have a blast. The food, the pool, the beach, the banter and the constant teasing of Joe made the whole weekend so much fun! I think this just might be my new favorite style of shoot. We stayed the whole weekend, capturing things as they happened as well as had a time for portraits for every couple on the beach. I seriously can't say enough good things.
Every time Joe got kissed or grabbed or dog-piled on (which was frequently) he raised his hand and yelled "I'm uncomfortable!" making everyone stop for a second then press in that much more. Such an awesome group of friends!
Sometimes with wedding parties, if I have the right crowd, I'll play around and prompt them to kiss the person closest to them...this is always just to make them laugh. THIS group, of course, took me completely seriously, however, and the shenanigans that followed had me rolling.
You guys I love you all dearly! Thank you so much for inviting us to participate in such a fun weekend! You are the very best friends Joe (or anyone) could ask for. :)


text: There are some evenings where slowing down is the best thing you can do. I arrive home from work and slip into a tee shirt and track suit bottoms. He arrives home 5 minutes later. He is tired as per usual and flops onto the bed after removing everything except his shorts. We lie on the bed together, his head resting in the curve of my belly and peacefully snooze for 15 minutes. I stroke his hair and he reaches up and holds my other hand. There are no words that need to be said. The moment is blissful.

Beautiful Balconies.Published on 3rd August 2015
But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
– William Shakespeare
Ah, who doesn't love the balcony scene, where that fickle young fop, Romeo, transfers his attentions from the fair Rosaline to sweet Juliet? If we're honest, Romeo has never quite cut the mustard for us; a callow youth who resettles his affections with little more thought than a butterfly flitting between flowers; in our view, Juliet would have been better off without him. For us, it's the balcony that's the real star of the scene!
Separating lovers with a matronly air, while allowing little flirtatious glances, and eventually displacing all obstacles, Shakespeare's balcony is the master of romance. It throws up hindrances that needs must be overcome, heightening the drama, while setting a glorious tableau for the spectacle to be acted upon.
Balconies are often overlooked in architecture these days. They play their part in blocks of flats, largely as a place to dry washing, their original romantic connotations all overwhelmed with mismatched socks and greying undies. At Apropos we think that it's time that the balcony regained its beauty, and its place in British home design.
The benefit of the balcony is that it brings additional room to a house, without encroaching on garden space; and what you use that room for is up to you. Yes, you can use it to hang out your laundry, but we'd recommend the function of a summer breakfast room, a secret garden, a sunbathing zone, reading room or relaxation area.
Made from strong, reliable aluminium and shatter-proof glass, your new balcony could extend your upper storey without occluding your view, and with a set of bi-fold doors leading out you'll gain the added benefit of brightening your bedrooms and bringing in fresh air.
Like everything else we do, Apropos glazed balconies are bespoke; designed and made especially for you, so that you, realistically, will be able to appropriate old Willy's words and say of your beautiful new glazed balcony:
The all-seeing sun
ne'er saw her match since first the world begun.
