When I turn on the news lately, I hear of our President being weighed on the scales of justice. I hear of the witnesses or testimony turning out to be false or badly handled. Governors scandalize. The Secretary of State covers up. Senators are exposed. Even the judges are judged for their various misdeeds. In such a world, we might wonder at the injustice of it all: where is justice where even the system has such questionable actors? Where is justice when the system favors the powerful and excuses the influential?
But today also happens to be Good Friday. It's the day that Jesus Christ was crucified. At that time, also, we read about a scandalous trial. Of Sadducees who'd rather keep their power appointed by Rome than look for a greater Kingdom. Of a Roman Prefect who appears to acquit an innocent man, but hands him over to the the crowd for the sake of expedience. Of a crowd who cries out for blood. Even the High Priest of God, who should have exemplified righteousness on behalf of the people, thought it better to condemn an innocent man. Because, after all, "it is better for you that one man should die for the people, not that the whole nation should perish." (John 11:50) All bad actors. At the expense of truth, at the twisting of justice, the actors seem rather more concerned with keeping the reigns on their own little shabby kingdoms.
And this is where John's Gospel picks up the story: Jesus is put on trial by these bad actors. But for John, it's not Jesus on trial, but the world. Early in the story, Jesus stands before his accusers and asks, "Which one of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me?" (John 8:46). The world is convicted and found wanting because "This is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil." (John 3:19) Even the Helper (the Spirit) is found in the role of "advocate": the world is on trial, and stands convicted of its crimes (John 16:8-11).
So when we think through Jesus's trial and crucifixion, we should recognize that this isn't a judgment against Jesus. It's a judgment against ourselves. Caiaphas assumed the High Priestly role and was found wanting. The Sanhedrin placed their traditions of man above the righteousness of God. Pilate shows us just how small the "greatness of Rome" really is. And God has turned the world's imitation of justice on its head: it's the world, not Jesus, who stands condemned. And blood is on our hands, in even more tragic and wonderful ways than we could anticipate: "His blood be on us and on our children," we might have shouted with the crowd that day. (Matthew 26:25)
In a world where corruption seems to reign, where injustice bleeds into the present, where is justice? But then, death and corruption aren't the end of the story…

The 2020 Range Rover Defender, about which rumors are moving, will probably be one among Jaguar's Range Rover (JLR) most awaited of brand new automobile releases. Timetabled to become launched within the next 2 many years as an upgrade to the pre-existing Defender series, casual "updates" from business options reveal how the following-gen Defender may well not appear to be its forerunners. So what makes the 2020 Range Rover Defender stand out, and why does it make a difference for the company?
Splitting From The Roots:
The Defender has not been bought from the US for pretty much 2 generations, and JLR feels it's time for you to rebrand the personal identity from the well-liked vehicle. So, might it be back to its origins; or possibly a key digression by reviewing the roots? That is the question on everyone's mind.
If we are going to believe Gerry McGovern, Property Rover's designer brand, then your Range Rover Defender 2020 will never appear to be the Defender concept vehicle that produced its very first a few years back again. Gone will be the modern day-searching, bubbly up-right SUV, using its unique exterior spare tire and dual front lights and easily discernible grille. A minimum of that is what professionals foresee!
As outlined by Car News, McGovern is offered as expressing in regards to the 2020 Defender, that while it can still look like a present day Defender, it will not carry resemblance to a number of the Defender's signature concepts. That would be an important digression in the car that is a primary descendant of merely one of JLRs originals – the 1948 Series I.
2020 Range Rover Defender Anticipations
The 2020 Range Rover Defender has got to shield its turf in opposition to numerous illustrious competitors, for example the Mercedes-Benz G-class, as well as the Jeep Wrangler. As such, there are a lot of dreams and objectives biking onto it.
Naturally, JLR is retaining its comprehensive style of the Range Rover Defender 2020 under tight wraps. Business management are certainly not likely to disclose very much in regards to the new Defender right up until they believe time is appropriate. The corporation is even not able to say whether the new auto maintains a unibody that is aluminium-structured, like many of its other series. That's a most likely option – yet still not established!
The 2020 Range Rover Defender may have a selection of engine possibilities from the inside JLR's huge inventory – from 3.-liter V6's and 5.-liter V8's, as much as the brand new 2.0L inline-4's slated to the Jaguar XE. Which one it will probably be remains to be unknown.
2020 Range Rover Defender Release Date And Price
Nevertheless, in accordance with the very negative wedding reception a preview from the Defender Principle 100 (DC100) received in Frankfurt in 2011, we understand it will not be that! The business needed to swiftly distance itself from your DC100 design and style by praoclaiming that layout was only the beginning of a "4-season journey!".
So till it ultimately comes later on in 2017, the $55,000-or-there-abouts costed 2020 Range Rover Defender will likely be shrouded in suspense. What to prepare for the supreme 2020 Range Rover Defender to create is anyone's guess at this particular stage. JLR is found among two sets of Defender viewers: The hard core customers, like the military services and rugged terrain users, along with the off of-roaders that enjoy it for its tough enjoyment value. Swinging too far to impress a single class will probably change aside other.

HAGÅTÑA — After the Department of Public Health and Social Services declined to accept Loretta Pangelinan and Kathleen Aguero's marriage license application yesterday, the lesbian couple said they were disappointed but prepared to fight for their right to be legally married in court.
Pangelinan, 28, and Aguero, 28, were accompanied by attorneys Bill Pesch and Todd Thomspon yesterday afternoon, who echoed the couple's response. Pesch said yesterday that court documents were in the process of being filed, moments after the couple's marriage license application was rejected.
Thompson said they will move forward with filing a civil rights action in federal court. "Basically, these ladies were denied equal protection of the laws by refusing to even accept their marriage license application," Thompson said. "So it will basically seek the remedy of allowing them and other people who are similarly situated on Guam to get married."
Pesch was confident his clients would win in court. Thompson also noted that other jurisdiction nationwide have recently recognized same-sex marriages legally.
Thompson said the clerk who refused to accept Pangelinan and Aguero's license yesterday cited 10 GCA Chapter 3 Section 3204, which defines marriage as legal union of persons of opposite sex. According to Thompson and Pesch, Guam has no specific statute that prohibits same-sex marriages.
DPHSS Director James Gillan said the law is very clear. "I think it's fairly clear when you talk about marriage being between people of the opposite sex, which means man and a woman," he said. "We can't issue a marriage license for same sex (couples)."
Gillan said there was no need to fill out the marriage license application initially because the department is not able to issue a marriage license.
Attorney Pesch said he respects the director's interpretation of the law. "I'm sure he was instructed by someone higher up who looked at 10 GCA and said, 'Well this is the definition of marriage and since they don't meet that little definition of marriage, then they're not going to be able to take that application,'" Pesch said.
Thompson and Pesch said yesterday that they approached Attorney General Elizabeth Barrett-Anderson prior to their clients' submitting a marriage license application.
Pangelinan and Thompson said they met in middle school and they've been a couple for last nine years. They've contemplated marriage for more than five years and a friend recommended they ask for Attorney Pesch's help. Pangelinan and Aguero have been foster parents to over 10 foster children over the years, including the three that they take care of now in their Yigo home.
Yesterday's rejection was just a "bump in the road," Pangelinan said, adding that the couple is prepared to challenge Guam law and religious statutes.
"We're standing up for our right," Aguero said. The couple said while they are churchgoers, they are also poised to withstand pushback from the Catholic church. "It has nothing to do with the church or anything. It's our right to marry the person we love, which is each other."
The couple's attorney, Bill Pesch is also the treasurer for Guam's Alternative Lifestyle Association and a vocal advocate for same-sex marriage. He and his husband, Corman Smau, were married last March in Vancouver, Washington. Their marriage is legally recognized on island, as per Guam law, which recognizes other marriages that are legal in other parts of the world.

Ilkeston, Derbyshire
Just to let you know I'm really pleased with my machines, they're set up just how I wanted and the Brother is really quite new, so that's great, and they both have lights so I won't have to bother buying some and asking my husband to fit them. Obviously it was a worry to buy machines which I'd not seen, from someone I didn't know, so I'm very relieved that they're just what I wanted, and the two mechanics were really nice and carried them in no bother and showed me how to use them. So I'm really happy and feel you've listened to what I asked and supplied what I needed!

However, (comma pregnant pause) we feel protecting the reputation of our namesake important enough to have to comment not only when someone gets it right but, equally important, be honest enough to admit it when someone gets it wrong. Such is the case with the alleged Goya Burger offered at the chain of JEF restaurants found across southern Okinawa.
The JEF chain used to be a part of the A&W chain of restaurants. Years ago a split in management broke away from the parent company to start their own chain of restaurants. To their credit, JEF does some things far better than their former partners. For example, their French fries actually taste like French fries and the portions are usually a little larger than their former partners in crime.
But competition in the burger business is keen. I'm assuming that the upper management decided they needed something to help them stand out from the competition. A&W was the first major chain on Okinawa and was soon followed by the World champion McDonald's chain. Brands like Mos burger and a brief encounter with the Wendy's brand mean the battle for number one in the burger market is still hotly contested.
Other burger chains have come and gone through the years and only a few chains have had the staying power to hang in there. Fortunately for the folks at JEF, they were one of them. With Goya being a favorite of Okinawans, being the first to bring the Goya Burger to market would seem to be one way get a leg up on the competition.
Where they failed in my humble opinion is by not putting any beef into the burger. The thing, for lack of a better word, they are trying to pass off as a burger is appears to be a mixture of tofu and egg with just a few microscopic slices of goya scattered in for flavor. Furthermore the size of the concoction is less than one would expect from a signature offering. For example, McDonalds has its "Big Mac!" Although Burger King is available in mainland Japan, aside from the bases it's invisible in Okinawa. Wendy's, before they folded shop in Japan, used to offer their famous double and triple here too.
If any of the folks at JEF are reading this, I would suggest they rethink the concept. A burger means beef or at least some kind of meat in the mix. Heck goat meat would have been better. As for the English speaking folks here on Okinawa, aka American's, do yourselves a very big favor and pass on the Goya Burger. As much as we love Goya, we're sad to say that you'll be sorely disappointed with it.

The 3 Times That Investors Really Want To Hear From You
Ever wondered when your monthly updates are most read?
From the hundreds of campaigns we've launched to thousands of investors, email opens / engagement rates are highest when:
1. Markets are bad
2. Your performance is suffering
We're talking about a 3-5x multiplier in open percentages if you're sending it out to your investors + hot prospects database. So – be careful of what you wish for!
What to do when you find yourself in either of the above scenarios:
DON'T: be quiet and say nothing. The increased engagement in email open %s is hard evidence that your investors really want to hear from you when they find their investments getting hit hard. About 3-5 times as much as when performance is steady!
- Provide assurance: Communicate to your audience that you are well-aware of the current dip in performance; clearly define what the problem is. And follow-up with the steps that you will be taking to rectify the situation, even if it is just waiting it out.
- Demonstrate expertise: Explain to your audience at a high-level (remember: most aren't interested in reading a thesis) what has caused the current dip in performance – be it macroeconomic events, shocks to certain sectors in your portfolio, etc. This is your opportunity to educate your audience who will be looking for answers, and to demonstrate expertise.
- Offer connectivity: The 'bad times' are another opportunity for you to cultivate positive relationships with investors who trusted you in the first place. Offer investors and prospects the chance to have a dialogue with you and strengthen the trust between you and them.
AND… What's the third time investors want to hear from you?
Consistently and regularly. Many managers only communicate when they have a couple of months with solid performance; disappearing during 'steady' months, as well as when performance is suffering. Communicating only when performance is good won't bring on a spurt of new subscriptions, as investors don't have you in front of their minds. Conversely, communicating only when times are bad only compounds the impact of the situation.
Write to them consistently. Don't drown them with announcements and updates, but do so at a consistent pace.
Recognize that there's never a 'best time' to start.

BURMA'S (Myanmar) military staged a "well-planned and coordinated" campaign of mass killings, gang rapes and other atrocities against the minority Muslim Rohingya population in the country, a US government investigation found.
The US State Department report ahead of its scheduled release on Monday could be used to impose sanctions or take other punitive measures against the Southeast Asian country, US officials told Reuters.
"The survey reveals that the recent violence in northern Rakhine State was extreme, large-scale, widespread, and seemingly geared toward both terrorizing the population and driving out the Rohingya residents," according to the 20-page report.
"The scope and scale of the military's operations indicate they were well-planned and coordinated."
SEE ALSO: Canada's lawmakers call Rohingya crisis a 'genocide'
However, the report stopped short of describing the crackdown as genocide or crime against humanity. The officials said the labelling of the alleged crimes committed were a subject of heated debate that delayed the release of the report for a month.
The report involved more than a thousand interviews of Rohingya men and women in refugee camps in neighbouring Bangladesh, where over 700,000 Rohingya have sought asylum following the military's crackdown on insurgents in their native Rakhine state in Burma since August 2017.
The department also conducted a survey which found that the majority of Rohingya refugees experienced or directly witnessed extreme violence and the destruction of their homes. They identified the Burmese military as a perpetrator in most cases, the report said.
Most of those surveyed said they witnessed a killing, two-thirds witnessed an injury, and half witnessed sexual violence, identifying the Burmese military as a perpetrator in 84 percent of the killings or injuries they witnessed.
Three-quarters of Rohingya interviewed said they saw members of the army kill someone; the same proportion say they witnessed the army destroying huts or whole villages. Police, unidentified security forces, and armed civilians carried out the rest of the observed killings, they said.
The survey also found that one-fifth of all respondents witnessed a mass-casualty event of killings or injuries, either in their villages or as they fled, with more than 100 victims.
The department's report highlighted two main phases of violence—the first in October 2016 and the second beginning in August 2017—followed attacks against Burmese security forces by the Rohingya insurgent group Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA).
"The vast majority of reported incidents against Rohingya took place from August to October 2017," the report said.
"The survey shows that the military, which used the ARSA attacks to justify its so-called counterinsurgency operations in northern Rakhine State, targeted civilians indiscriminately and often with extreme brutality."
The Rohingya survivors claimed they had witnessed soldiers killing infants and small children, the shooting of unarmed men, and victims being buried alive in mass graves.
One refugee recounted the kidnapping of four Rohingya girls who were tied up with ropes and raped for three days, according to the report, which was the victims were left "half dead".
Last Thursday, Canada's parliament unanimously voted to declare Burma's military actions against the minority Rohingya an act of "genocide".

The western country's lower house endorsed the findings of a UN fact-finding mission on Burma that found "crimes against humanity have been committed against the Rohingya" and that the acts took place under orders from military commanders.
They also urged the international community to investigate and prosecute Burma's generals for "the crime of genocide".
A fact-finding mission by the UN found evidence of ethnic cleansing and accused Burma's military of genocide. The final report, released earlier this month, documented patterns of gross human rights violations and abuses that included killing indiscriminately, gang-raping women, assaulting children, and burning entire villages.
The UN investigators called for Burma's army general Min Aung Hlaing and five generals to be prosecuted for genocide and crimes against humanity, among others.
The military has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing and de facto leader Aung San Suu Kyi has remained largely silent on the atrocities.
The Nobel laureate has received widespread criticism for being complicit in the military's brutal crackdown.

Credit score Card Financial debt Relief Manual
Unmanageable credit score card debt is 1 of the most prevalent causes how individuals discover themselves in economic trouble. Thankfully folks that are in want of credit card financial debt relief have a variety of possibilities.
Getting into credit card debt can happen very simply. With regular monthly minimal card repayments often being as very low as 2.5% of the overall owed balance it is simple to see why a lot of men and women use their cards to get by financially every month. Nonetheless the substantial interest charges usually charged on card balances means that they must by no means be regarded a extended term borrowing option.
Credit score card interest rates are typically at least twice as high as those charged on a comparable loan and so using cards as something other than quick phrase lending is rarely a excellent alternative. In which possible it is rather preferable to minimise credit card devote in favour of other much less costly kinds of borrowing.
If you have got into difficulties with credit score card debt then there are many options. The crucial to sorting out difficulties is to try out to get interest and charges on the financial debt stopped. 1 way this can be completed is via a financial debt management program. In a debt management program your debts are renegotiated so that you spend only what you can afford. Though it is attainable to organize the plan your self it is far more typical to do so by means of a expert debt management business.
If your debts are in excess of 15000 then a far better alternative could be to agree to an Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA). The IVA is a a lot more formal agreement than a debt management plan but has comparable positive aspects. A 3rd solution is to consider out a consolidation loan which will allow you to rearrange your debts to shell out off what you owe at a much more favourable price of interest.

Inspiration: BCBG Resort 2014/
I've always found that every collection that BCBG Maxazria puts out every season, never disappoints me, but it's their resort collections that always take my breath away. Their 2014 Resort collection features flirty light and dark pieces, with whimsical touches of florals, but it's their light pieces that area really inspiring what I'll be looking for when I'm shopping for my Hawaii trip this April. It's perfection!
If you could pick just one piece from the collection, what would you pick?

The biggest takeaway from UFC on Fox 29 was that Justin Gaethje is one of the toughest, most game competitors currently active on the roster. After amassing an undefeated amateur MMA record of 7-0, Gaethje signed to World Series of Fighting where he maintained his perfect record and became the promotion's lightweight championship. It wasn't until his entry into the UFC that experienced defeat, first at the hands of Eddie Alvarez and most recently in his bout against the surging Dustin Poirier.
It's clear that you literally have to stop Justin Gaethje if you want to win a fight with him otherwise he will keep coming like Arnold Swarzenegger at the end of the first Terminator movie. He's definitely a fan-friendly, exciting fighter able to walk through most fighters strikes to deliver his own brutal leg kicks and uppercuts. He's a smasher who needs to move his head; he's cool with taking 3 shots to the head in order to deliver one against his opponent. He is usually a bloody mess, win or lose, at the end of his fights, so the real question is how many fights does he have left and what kind of shape will his brain be in when it's all said and done?
Many are calling this past weekend "The Fight of the Year," but that remains to be seen. It was going to be an exciting fight, that's what happens when you put Dustin Poirier, who despite some setbacks in this career, is knocking on the door of a title fight and Justin Gaethje inside a cage for five five-minute rounds.
Gaethje is a talented, athletic guy; he is a solid fighter, but for goodness sake, please stop using your face to block punches, maybe clinch or use your wrestling. He has taken a hell of a lot of damage in his career. He has stated that he has five fights left before he gets out, but in my opinion, he may not make it. Former Glory Kickboxing's welterweight champ Joe Valtellini had to cut his career short due to lasting injuries due to head trauma and concussions. Either way, I don't see it ending well for Justin Gaethje.
Dusting Poirier looked great. He weathered the melee brought on by Justin Gaethje and was able to win using great technique and experience. At the end of the fight, instead of calling for a rematch with Eddie Alvarez, he went big and asked for a title shot. Why not? If we look at the lightweight division, it is still in a disarray after the recent events. Khabib Nurmagomedov is the champ; Tony Ferguson is healing from Knee surgery, so he will be out for several months. Conor McGregor may be going to jail. Eddie Alvarez is ranked third and Edson Barboza is ranked fourth. Barboza lost to the current champ and faces a tough Kevin Lee this weekend.
Alvarez and Poirier both have finish wins over Justin Gaethje. It's likely that the two will have to duke it out and the winner will face Nurmagomedov for a title fight.

Ink Splat Bird
It's my brother-in-law's birthday today so I made him a little card to send with his present. I like making ink splat creatures - here's how this one developed!
First, I took one colour of ink, dropped a coupla blobs on the page then blew it about a bit.
Then I took another colour, blobbed it next to the first splat and blew it about - trying not to mix tooooo much with the yellow.
I rotated the splat around until I found a creature hiding within…
This angle looked like an exotic bird with magnificent head plumage and a big old beak, so I locked it down.
I used a black pen to fill in the details and bring the creature to life. What a beauty!

The Seth Peterson Cottage is a two-room lakeside cottage located in Mirror Lake State Park outside Lake Delton, Wisconsin, United States. It was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1958.
Wisconsin resident Seth Peterson convinced Wright, who was then 90 years old, to design a cottage for him in 1958. Peterson took his own life before the cottage was finished, and the next owners completed the work.[2][3] Mirror Lake State Park was established nearby in 1962, and in 1966 the land on which the cottage stood was acquired by the state and added to the park. Away from the developed areas of the park, however, the cottage was neglected and fell into disrepair. In the late 1980s Audrey Laatsch, a local resident, noticed the run-down cabin while canoeing on Mirror Lake and became interested in the structure. Upon discovering its origin, she spearheaded a grass-roots campaign among local residents and Wright-aficionados to restore the cottage. They founded a non-profit organization, the Seth Peterson Cottage Conservancy, in 1989. Their efforts funded a $300,000, three-year restoration that included elements from Wright's original designs that had never been built. The work was finished in June 1992, the 125th anniversary of Wright's birth.
The plight of the condition of the cottage was made widely known via a 1986 Wisconsin State Journal article entitled "What Would You Do If You Owned a Frank Lloyd Wright House? P.S. You Do." While the cottage had been known to locals, this article publicized the embarrassing condition of the cottage and possibly energized the movement to rehabilitate it. The article was written by author Joyce Rogell Kult, a long-time Wright aficionado, researcher, and artist.
The cottage can accommodate up to four overnight guests, up to twelve for a meeting, and 30-40 for an event. The cottage is also opened for a public tour on the second Sunday of every month.

Now that I am feeling comfortable with my Thermomix, I am branching out more to convert my old favourite recipes. I have kept a folder of my favourites over the years and when I hit a rut in my cooking routine, out it comes and the ol' faithfuls are put into action once again.
This is a terrific family meal which is simple and tasty. It is from Donna Hay's "Cooking" book. I think it was one of the first Donna Hay books I purchased. And I have a few…well, more than a few. I've loved her recipes for years.
I usually cook this on the stove top for a few hours, or in the slow cooker, and it always tastes better the next day once the flavours have had a chance to blend.
I used Chuck Steak in this recipe. A cheaper cut which you need to cook for longer. I haven't tried a recipe like this before in the Thermomix and I was keen to see what the results would be like.
May I say, I was very impressed! As a consultant for Thermomix, I am often asked about casseroles and how the Thermomix compares to a slow cooker. I have noticed that many Thermomix recipes use cheaper cuts of meat and I was eager to see the results.
I cooked this dish for 50 minutes and the meat was really tender and soft. Can the Thermomix do no wrong? I'm always so pleased with this machine every time a try out a new function.
I reduced the amount of liquid from the original recipe, and the dish is still quite liquid at the end of cooking. You could remove the MC whilst cooking and replace it with the basket to stop splatters. Or, if you are reheating it in a saucepan the following day as I did tonight, just reduce it a little then.
I have uploaded it onto the Thermomix Recipe Community. This website is a fantastic resource for all Thermie owners. You can just key in whatever ingredients you have and up comes a huge list of recipes for you. It's great inspiration when you are bored with your regular meals. You can post all of your own triumphs for others to try as well!

Thank you Mom!/
Happy Mothers day to all the Mom's out there!
As I was sitting reflecting on memories in my childhood with my Mom, I can remember her entertaining. Wow, did she not only love it but she truly knew HOW to cook and entertain! I remember her always looking so at ease when it came to preparing food and melding the etiquette of welcoming & laughing with her guests. She really knew how to get it all done! Growing up in a household where my parents were the 'entertainers', I realize how I became so very comfortable with gettin' all done and getting pure enjoyment at the same time.
Now that I am 'the entertainer' in my life, I love it when the time comes for me to share the same energy with my guests. I was raised seeing my parents take such kind care of their guests and I love doing the same. Whether its one guest or several, I always love preparing, creating, tidying and pulling out all my favorite pieces of earthenware, all while having a great time!
So THANK YOU MOM for the gift of entertaining! You showed me something that has become such a happy spot in my life!
I love you today and always,
carrie elizabeth

Our story begins 12,000 years ago in a sleepy hamlet called paleolithic Egypt. Among boring things like ritual burial sites and harpoons, you'll find some of the earliest surviving examples of pornography.
Cave drawings depicting nude bodies in exaggerated states of sexual excitement, as well as close-ups of good-old human genitalia have been found in these paleolithic chambers. More recently (2005), archeologists found what they believe to be a 7,200 year old scene of a sexually aroused male body bending over a female figure.
According to my calculations, doggie-style has been around for at least 7,000 years.
We may have traded in our cave walls for computer screens, and our chisels, for hi-definition video cameras, but (as you can tell from your partner's search history), porn is anything but on the decline.
According to this infographic, porn sites get more daily visitors than Netflix, Twitter, and Amazon combined. Other research reports, 70% of men and 30% of women watch porn and that number is rapidly climbing. $3,075.64 is being spent on pornography every second.
And we're not just talking about a couple of Playboys under the bed.
Thanks to high-speed internet, we can view hundreds of sexually explicit scenes in the time it takes our Nespresso machine to pour us a shot.
In the spirit of full disclosure, I'll admit that I'm pro-porn. As long as its consensual and well-lit, I'm game.
For many couples, porn can be a useful, fun and creative way to spice up their sex life, and a great way to learn about what turns you on. Think of porn as a dressing room for the sexual imagination. Go inside, lock the door, and try on lots things before swiping your credit card.
For others, however, porn is the perpetual elephant in the room. Some folks think of their partner's viewing habits as cheating, or as proof that they're not sexually satisfied within the relationship.
Others still, have lost interest in face to face (or face to …) sex in favor of masturbation. Or even more alarmingly, they've turned their partners into mere masturbatory tools, nothing more than human flesh-lights.
This isn't a porn bad, prolonged eye contact, tender lovemaking, slow jams on Spotify, good thing. It's simply an invitation to ask yourself some questions about how porn fits into your life.
Is there such a thing as too much? How does it impact our partnerships? Have our brains kept up with the ready access and novelty provided by technology?Some scientists say no.
A new German study published in JAMA Psychiatry, reports that men who disclose watching voluminous amounts of porn, tend to have less volume and activity in regions of the brain linked to rewards and motivation. The study also showed that the connection between the striatum and the prefrontal cortex - the outer layer of the brain that's associated with behavior and decision making, worsened with increased porn watching. Research also suggests, that porn viewing has also been found to dull responses to sexual stimulation.
Have you heard of the Coolidge Effect? It describes a biological phenomenon whereby human mammals (nearly all of them) exhibit a continuously high sexual drive, with the introduction of new receptive partners. Dopamine flatlines with repeated exposures to the same mate (especially if they're always wearing those same sweatpants…), but it surges at the prospect of a shiny new partner. Thus, our primitive brains perceive new partners (even those on a screen), as genetic opportunities not to be missed.
This in itself isn't awful. It's science. It's survival.
The problem is that this Big Bang of synthetic novelty provided by Internet porn, can make the fireworks we set off with our not new, same old, partners, look like the the flickering LED light at the end of your key chain, by comparison.
A 2007 study, revealed that brief exposure to a series of sexy images caused men to devalue their real-life partner, who they rated as lower not only on attractiveness, but also on warmth and intelligence. Also, after pornography consumption, subjects in a 2006 study reported less satisfaction with their sweetheart—including their affection, appearance, sexual curiosity, and performance.
As a couples therapist, I can tell you that we're all just looking for meaningful contact and that includes our search, use and sometimes overuse of porn. This research is compelling, but I suggest you do your own, in order to truly investigate the effect that porn may have on your life.
- Notice how you feel right before you watch porn. Are you lonely, content, bored, angry, aroused?
- How you feel during? Are you connecting to your body, or are you disengaged? Do you feel guilty, or empowered?
- And how you do you feel immediately afterwards?
Developing a quality of awareness won't just improve your solo and partner missions, but it will allow you to get really lucky, and respond to what is happening in your life, with choice, and with grounded, present-centered, awareness.
So, next time you're spanking the monkey, teasing the weasel, tossing the turkey, or walking the dog, don't forget to practice this gestalt (S)exercise in awareness.
*NOTE: No animals were harmed in the making of this sentence*
Lonely Forever? No Way!

for Pelham Apartment
by Laura F, United States
December 2018
"We stayed at Pelham in Chelsea over Christmas holidays. The apartment is exactly as pictured, clean comfortable, with nice bedding; very safe with gated and double keyed entry. The flat is in a fabulous location. Lots of restaurants and shops right around the corner. Cabs are numerous on Kings Rd. and we never waited over a minute or two for one. The check in was efficient and welcoming. We received welcome treats and even a Christmas goody a few days before Christmas day. The office staff were extremely helpful in helping us track down some tickets to a football game we had ordered, they truly went above and beyond to patiently help us. We have rented through London Perfect before and will definitely use them again-maybe in Paris next time!! Reliable, helpful, and the concierge services of a five-star hotel but with the comfort and space of a home!"

After 30 years of ad-hoc changes, the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 is no longer working for the people of NSW. The NSW Government has asked an independent panel to consulting with communities and interested groups about what a new planning system should look like and then make recommendations for new planning legislation.
The City is advocating for a new planning system that is sustainable, collaborative, transparent and equitable - one that can deliver on important issues such as climate change, housing, transport and design.
On Monday night, Council's Planning Development and Transport Committee will consider the City's submission to the NSW Government's review.
The City's submission sets out a vision for a new planning system that will tackle serious environmental issues, give communities a meaningful say in their area, encourage collaboration, is economically sustainable and protects the public interest.
The new planning system must give planners and communities the tools to address climate change and use resources sustainably, provide housing in concert with public transport, improve housing affordability and create places of the highest architectural quality.
The City's submission responds to over 230 issues raised in the first phase of consultation. The Panel's proposal for a new planning system is expected in April after submissions are reviewed with new legislation to come before Parliament by the end of the year.
You can find out more information about the Planning System Review and submit your ideas and suggestions through their website before Friday 2 March.

National Doctors' Day provides the opportunity to honor physicians throughout the U.S. each year who guide and treat patients to positively impact their health. During the month of March, Licking Memorial Health Systems (LMHS) celebrates the Medical Staff and their dedicated service. Patients from the community also are invited to recognize physicians by giving a donation to Licking Memorial Health Foundation (LMHF) in their physician's honor.
C. Franklin Gibson showed his appreciation for the service James W. DeSapri, D.O, of Licking Memorial Family Practice, provides to him by making an honorary donation in his name for Doctors' Day. Dr. DeSapri has been caring for Mr. Gibson since he joined Licking Memorial Health Professionals in 2006. Franklin describes his physician as a genuine and comforting individual. "He covers all the bases for me with my issues and is always interested and concerned with what I have to say. He is someone who really cares and that means a lot to me." Franklin is especially thankful that Dr. DeSapri makes time to give full explanations to any questions he may have about his health care. "When I leave, I feel comfortable with what we have discussed. He also keeps me on track with my prescriptions and necessary blood tests." Franklin noted that the staff also is especially helpful, spending time with him without rushing and often calling back with answers to his questions. "As far as I am concerned, he is my best friend. I feel very good about Dr. DeSapri as a person and as a physician. He deserves recognition."
Gifts also were received recognizing many other physicians in honor of Doctors' Day. Physicians who receive donations in their name receive an acknowledgement of the gift on the donor's behalf. Dr. DeSapri expressed his gratitude for the donation provided by Franklin, "It is an honor to be recognized, and to know that this donation will contribute to technological advancement within the Health Systems," he said. "I appreciate Franklin's donation to LMHS, which helps us to continue expanding the services we offer to our local community."
Dr. DeSapri completed his residency at Doctors Hospital of Columbus, Ohio, and received his medical degree from the Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medicine in Athens, Ohio. A Columbus native, he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Spanish and Natural Sciences from Xavier University in Cincinnati and his high school diploma from St. Charles Preparatory High School in Columbus. He is board-certified in family practice. Dr. DeSapri's Licking Memorial FamilyPractice office is located at Moundbuilders' Doctors' Park Building 5, 1272 West Main, in Newark. He can be reached at (220) 564-1788.
The LMH Medical Staff includes approximately 174 physicians and 50 consulting physicians who provide their expertise and care to the community. Contributions to LMHF continue to benefit physicians, guests, and the entire Health Systems with technological advances for the Hospital. Throughout the year, those who wish to make a donation in honor of their physician may contact the LMH Development Office at (220) 564-4102.

Nobody wants to be stuck in tiny, dark, cramped rooms with artificial lighting. When it comes to interior architecture, most of us want open spaces filled with natural light.
But as any architect knows, those design goals sometimes take a back seat to safety.
Fire codes dictate where architects put walls, doors, and windows, and they set standards for how long those walls, doors, and windows should be able to last during a fire. In too many cases, that's meant heavy, cement-block walls that cut off natural light.
Over the years, fire-rated glass-ceramics have stepped in to give architects new materials to fill interior spaces with borrowed light while still meeting fire protection codes. Fire-protection-rated glazing blocks smoke and flames during a fire without turning opaque, allowing building occupants to see a clear path to safely exit the building, and allowing fire-fighters to see into interior corridors while fighting the fire. But many fire-protection-rated glazing options require design trade-offs, from their small stock sheet size to their yellowish tint.
New technology and manufacturing methods are giving architects more options. SCHOTT recently introduced the world's largest fire-protection-rated glass-ceramic panel, at 51 inches by 99 inches, offering new opportunities for open, naturally lit spaces.
The larger sheet size is made of PYRAN® Platinum, the world's first and only floated glass-ceramic for architectural applications. Its formulation eliminates the yellowish tint found in most glass-ceramics, and it's made with SCHOTT's microfloat process, leaving the surface exceptionally smooth without the need for polishing.
Fire codes impose strict demands on building materials. For example, fire-protection-rated glazing materials must be able to provide a barrier to fire, hot gases and smoke for up to 90 minutes in windows and up to 180 minutes in door lites.
They must be resistant to thermal shock so they don't shatter during a fire, as tested by high pressure water from a fire hose in the hose-stream test.
In addition to performance during an emergency fire situation, glazing materials installed in safety-rated locations such as corridor windows and door lites must also safely break should someone accidentally run into them.
Those safety features and the testing that fire-protection-rated glass must pass used to mean compromising on architectural ideals. New, larger sheets of clear glass-ceramic now offer architects and designers the tools to design beautiful, light-filled spaces that are just as safe in dimensions up to 25 percent of the wall area.

Jeff Conaway's manager, Phil Brock, has confirmed the actor died Friday morning. Brock tells People magazine Conaway was taken off life support and passed away at 10:03 a.m. The 60-year-old, who was best known for his roles on Grease and Taxi, had been in a coma since he was found unconscious in his home on May 11. Conaway was suffering from pneumonia and sepsis.
"Jeff was taken off life-support (Thursday) afternoon. His family chose to take him off of life-support based on advice from physicians. They thought for several days that the situation was hopeless," Brock tells People.
"We loved Jeff as a person. We respect him. We know his personal struggles are all over. He was a kind, gentle soul who loved to perform, from small theater to Broadway," Brock added.
Conaway began his acting career in the 70s and shot to fame after starring alongside Olivia Newton John and John Travolta in Grease. He went on to star in dozens of films. Conaway's career was often overshadowed by his addiction to drugs and alcohol. His battle with addiction to cocaine, prescription pain meds and alcohol was chronicled on the first two seasons of Celebrity Rehab. He first sought treatment for substance abuse in the mid-80s.

Well, friends, it's that week. It's the week that we all mark on our calendars regardless of which avenues our celebrations are centered. It's the week where Three Penny is closed on a Friday.
I know, I know…
You're probably thinking "WHAT!?! NOT FRIDAY!!!"
And then I'm thinking, "Please calm down, you're making a scene. And if you're going to make a scene, you might as well write it out so most of us (those that can understand whatever language you write it in) can try and act it out. That would be far cooler than just furthering your monologue."
So, yes, we are closed on Friday so that our staff can further their own traditions. Because, traditions are important and every time I even type the word traditions I think about that time in my past life as a thespian where I played Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof. If you need a reference, here you go.
For example, in my high school (I lived there) we had a tradition of making all of the first year males run in their underwear from the dorm furthest away from a flagpole to the flagpole and back in the middle of the night and most of the upperclassman would be there too and it was a grand time.
Oh, wait, my school just contacted me and told me that that never happened and it doesn't happen anymore either.
But, you get the point.
Traditions of trimming a tree, stoking a Yule log, singing carols, they're all important to do because they simply bring people together and make them all stand close and smell each other and since smell is the strongest trigger for memory we are reminded that love and peace can actually happen because you're remembering when you were a kid and this time of year is for remembering. Remember also that we love you and that we'll be closed on Friday but we'll be open Thursday and Saturday (both days – and nights).
And, if you're in the gift giving mood, today would be a great day to come on down to Three Penny and pick up that last minute bombshell of a great gift certificate.
That's really all I got for you folks. I just want you all to know that we really do love you and we all hope that you have a wonderful holiday.
As far as beer is concerned (that's why you folks come here anyway, right?) here's what it looks like for our beer lineup leading into our day off:
Rodenbach Caractere Rouge: we talk a lot about IPAs here (India Pale Ales) but we also always have something that isn't too hoppy for the people who like to lean that way. Well, this is a wonderful sour from Belgiumtown. This Flanders Red was aged on oak with raspberries, cranberries and sour cherries. And we all know what that means. It means your new safe word is "wow." It's safe to use that word, that's what that means.
We also have Hill Farmstead Conduct of Life which is a wonderful American Pale Ale (here he goes again talking about hops) if you like your Pale Ales (American) made with Citra and Amarillo hops. If you don't then you should try this one because it's great.
Crop Bistro (soon to be Idlyetime Brewing Company – so you've been forewarned) will be switching from their wonderful Oatmeal Stout to their even more betterer Vanilla Porter pretty soon and that made you excited in the past so I figured another mention of it would satisfy you.
Also on pretty soon with be Zero Gravity's Cascara Brown which, if you like your Brown Ales made with coffee cherries (which is coffee before the roasting process), you're probably going to have this for the first time because let's be honest, you don't see many Brown Ales made with coffee cherries.
There'll be more than that, I can assure you, but that's what I like to call a "sneak peek" which is different than a "sneak peak" I can assure you.
Happy Holidays friends,
Thisonegoesouttoclancy.Thisisn'tmeanttobeantianythingIjustthoughthe'dappreciateapearljamsongwhentheycovertheramonesbutforthosewhothinki'mbeingimpolitetheni'mleavingthisforyou. TRADITIONS!!!

I had the most amazing week, meeting incredible people from all over the world...photographers, conservationists, actors, musicians, watermen and models! My favorite model of all time, Helena Christensen, was one of the participants of the event and I had the opportunity to meet with her and have a conversation about photography as the sun was setting.

Antique bedroom sets make it easy to decorate a bedroom without worrying about matching style, color and size of the various pieces. This foundation makes it easy to create a cohesive, peaceful theme for relaxing, reading and sleeping. Bedroom sets usually range from three to eight and can be found for almost every budget and style.
Antique Bedroom Sets Items
Usually, antique bedroom sets contain a bed, dresser, and two nightstands. Different sets suit different needs and available space. Often set includes an armoire, storage bench or even full length mirror. Choosing a fuller set can make decorating easy and create a beautiful room effortlessly. On the other hand, if you like to personalize your house spaces, could be a sparse room sets creates a fine because the show's eclectic and antique treasures. Antique bedroom sets should be chosen based on convenience and design needs. An armoire can be a valuable option for someone with a lot of clothes, or it may be unnecessary if the bedroom has ample closet space already. Different features suit personal habits and lifestyles. For those who like to read in bed, a headboard with a bookcase to be a nice feature. For families with children, rounded edges on furniture are a smart precaution. In small rooms, sets that provide extra storage space are helpful.
Antique bedroom sets can be found in almost every style imaginable. Sleigh beds or four-post beds, with elegant curves are common in traditional-looking sets, deep stain and subtle carvings. Modern styles have clean, straight lines and one or two basic colors. Brass or wrought iron bed frames and night stands could be the basis for a classic set that can be paired with pieces found at antique shops, or passed down through the family. To create a calm, peaceful atmosphere in the bedroom, it is important that the set contains seamlessly into the rest of the design. Think of the components in the room that will not change, such as carpets or wall color, when choosing a set. By keeping the bed linen and room characteristics simple, the feeling of the room changed easily with various curtains, bedspreads and pillows. Beds come in many shapes and sizes, but there are common bed heights to help a buyer find the best fit. Twin beds are small and perfect for one person. Extra-long beds are also available; however, the sheets of the bed size are hard to find. Different bed frame types for single beds are available that greatly affect the height of the bed and should be considered when buying a single bed.

The first-ever point-in-time homeless count and survey will be happening on Wednesday, April 13 — and it's fast approaching.
"We have 22 volunteers identified so far" says Ann Harvey, Nelson's point-in-time count coordinator, "with eight more we are waiting to receive registrations from, but the research would surely benefit with 10 to 20 more volunteers."
Harvey stressed that training is provided and volunteers will go out in teams of two to four to survey the streets and key service locations on April 13, in four hour shifts during the day (including breaks). Each survey team will have an experienced team member. The count and survey will gather information from people experiencing cyclical or chronic homelessness or who lack permanent or safe housing.
"This is a great opportunity to learn a bit more about your community, provide some meaningful and useful information to our community, governments, funders and service providers and meet a great group of people," said Harvey. Volunteers who survey must attend a two hour training session. The first of five training sessions started today.
The point-in-time count hopes to answer questions like "Who is homeless or at risk in Nelson? Are they passing through or local residents? What do they say are their service and housing needs?"
To be successful, says Harvey, the count will need a lot of support from citizens and organizations.
The Nelson homeless point-in-time count and survey is part of a nationally-coordinated effort, with funding assistance from the Government of Canada's homelessness partnering strategy. The count will take place April 12 in shelters, transitional housing and institutions, and the next day throughout Nelson — where volunteers are needed. If you wish to volunteer go to nelsoncares.ca/ncoh2016pitcount or contact Ann Harvey at 250-352-6011x19 or at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Ester Antonucci
ESTER ANTONUCCI graduated at the University of Turin (Italy). Her early research was in the field of high energy cosmic rays. Her interest in solar physics began at Stanford University, where she identified rigidly rotating structures in corona. Later on, she actively participated in three major solar space missions. During the operations of the Solar Maximum Mission (NASA) she acted as Deputy Principal Investigator of the Soft X-Ray Polychromator (XRP), at GSFC/NASA. XRP observations led her to find the first evidence for chromospheric evaporation, source of the intense soft-X- ray flare emission. Later on she was involved in the definition of SOHO, the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (ESA-NASA), and played a key role in the development of the Ultraviolet Coronagraph Spectrometer, which allowed a breakthrough in the understanding of solar wind acceleration. Actively involved in the proposal and definition of Solar Orbiter (ESA), at present she is Principal Investigator of the Solar Orbiter coronagraph, METIS, and she was PI of its prototype, SCORE, which obtained the first measurement of Helium in the outer corona. She has been Director at the Astrophysical Observatory of Turin (INAF), chair of COSPAR Sub-commissions, member of ESA advisory committees and of the ISSI scientific committee. She is member of the International Academy of Astronautics and of the European Academy of Sciences.

"Commitment and mobility are probably the most important things we need to see from overseas candidates", she says in between sips of soy latte. "We need to see commitment from them – that they're serious about moving out to Australia. Increasingly, it means them needing to be in Australia to interview."
I was meeting a Talent Manager from one of the major media agency networks out here. I wanted to get a better idea of the process and considerations when looking at taking on overseas staff.
