He was a former member of St. Cecelia Catholic Church, Rochester. where he had served as an usher and was currently a member of St. Mary Help of Christians Catholic Church in Aiken. "Pa" was skilled in carpentry, collected 1/32 die cast cars and enjoyed fishing.

I don't know if your kitchen is anything like mine, but I've noticed the dishrags seem to vanish with the same frequency as my socks from the laundry. How would Sherlock Holmes solve this one? The facts suggest that whoever is stealing them is clearly very small, and invincible at hiding. Their world must be full of sock sleeping bags and dishcloth bed comforters.
Regardless of where they went, I am currently 100% completely out of dishcloths. So while I wait on Mr. Holmes, I'll just start crocheting. (My mom taught me this pretty pattern sooooo long ago!)
You'll need a size G crochet hook, and 100% cotton yarn, weight 4 Medium. A single 2.5 oz ball is enough for one dishcloth, unless you want to use two different colors.
The finished size can vary. I made several, ranging from 8-10 inches in width. For this one, I started with a chain of 16 single crochet stitches. (sc)
To turn, chain 1. Rows 2 – 12 are all half double crochet stitches. (hdc) Repeat until you have a square!
Single crochet all the way around the edges.
Change colors if you want, and double crochet (dc) around the edges. In the corners, it's best to do a couple extra dc back to back so that it will lay flat.
To create the outside edge frill, half double crochet 4 times in each of the spaces left by the double crochet.
Trim the yarn tails, weave in the ends, and you're done! (Until the tiny thieves strike again.)

Police in Massachusetts recognized and chased a man accused of running over a state trooper's foot, eventually arresting him in Westwood, where he was found applying for a job at an electronics store.
State police say 26-year-old Jose Jiminez of Lawrence fled after being stopped in Brockton last Thursday, running over the foot of a trooper who was approaching his Toyota Camry. A trooper recognized Jiminez Tuesday while driving on Route 24 northbound. He allegedly refused to stop again, and police chased him onto I-93 south, then onto I-95 north. Police say they stopped chasing him after he exited on University Avenue in Westwood, but that they kept searching for him.
The Camry was found abandoned, and a witness told police they saw a man run into the Osprey Wireless store on University Avenue. Police found him inside — applying for a job — and took him into custody.
"He came to the back door, very nonchalant," said Jeff Maron, the owner of Osprey Wireless. "My service manager was standing there. He said, 'Are you guys hiring?'"
Maron says Jimenez showed no signs of running from police.
"We shake hands. I mean, he wasn't sweaty, it was like you just walking in, it was fine," recounted Maron. "So I said to Beverly I says get me an application."
Surveillance video shows Jimenez chatting with Maron's wife, Beverly, who is also the office receptionist, then heading into the owner's office, where he started to fill out an application.
Later, a manager came to the door and summoned Maron into the hallway.
"He said, 'Get out of your office.' I said, 'Why?' He said 'Get out of your office now,'" Maron said.
And then police walked in.
"They come in and they go, 'You didn't think we wouldn't find you, did you?' I don't know what his reply was, but they had their guns drawn, and they struggled a little bit and out they went."
Jimenez was inside the store for 10 to 15 minutes before police arrived.
He'll be arraigned on several charges Wednesday.

MOUNTAIN Warehouse yesterday revealed that it enjoyed a record Christmas, with total sales up by 19 per cent in the six weeks ending January 4.
The company said that this performance was driven by the brand's 'bricks and clicks' strategy, which saw the group open its 200th store in Inverness, just before Christmas. Online sales rose by 36.3 per cent over the festive period.
The company, which specialises in selling outdoor clothing and equipment, was also boosted by Black Friday and Cyber Monday, which combined to create its busiest ever four-day trading period.
Sales jumped 33 per cent in stores on Black Friday, while Cyber Sunday was its biggest day ever online, with sales up 53 per cent year-on-year. The company sold 1.2m items of outdoor gear over the six weeks, including 70,000 ski jackets.
Mountain Warehouse was established with a single store in 1997. It was bought by the founder and chief executive Mark Neale, and his management team, in October 2013, in a deal valuing the business at £85m.
Mr Neale said: "Our outstanding Christmas performance caps another excellent year for the business. I'm hugely pleased with continuing strong performance across all our channels: in our UK stores, online and internationally."
In Yorkshire, the company has stores in York, Skipton, Northallerton, Beverley, Whitby, Harrogate, Ilkley and Richmond.

16/08/13 Stage 6 Chunchi – Ingapirca
|View back towards Chunchi
Another day of beautiful riding. The road is becoming quieter and quieter. The downside of this is that there are also fewer places to find food and water. It was quite a hard day riding with over 1900 meters of climbing. All would have been well if the final bit hadn't been off road. The first taste of ripio (gravel roads) definitely doesn't make me long for more. Bring on the asphalt I say. If I want to go off road riding I know nicer trails. The final bit was so steep I couldn't even push my bike up it. Every time I tried it seem to roll back further than I had pushed it forward. After a long day cycling and the sun still full of heat I was not a happy bunny but of course I did get to Ingapirca but it was 5.00 pm and too late to see the most famous Inca ruins in Ecuador. We wandered about the little town in the evening and soon realised we were the only tourists left in town. It was lovely to realise that we can speak and understand enough Spanish to have a simple conversation. Without that there would be very little communication because hardly any one speaks any English (which is fair enough of course). We managed to buy a few tomatoes and some cheese and luckily Malcolm had the foresight to buy some wine in the last big place we passed through so supper was sorted complimented by a take away from the little stall on the square. It was quite late when we crawled into bed at 7.30!

Hi I'm Ryan R
I love sports, music, and my family. I'm a Mormon.
About Me
I am a son, brother, uncle and a friend to anyone I can be. I love sports, baskteball mainly, but also enjoy the passion for music playing the guitar is one of them. I love the mountains and taking hiking trips through them. I grew up in Utah and my family currently still resides there. Growing up my family and I loved to do things together. We loved to go shoot hoops, play card games, board games anything that was fun but also competitive. We all sing and play the piano so we all interconnect as a family right there. We are all loud, especially when we are having fun together. We are all very competitive it is just second nature to us. We love each other and try to pass that on to others.
Why I am a Mormon
I am mormon because life just makes sense with the gospel. Some people think that since I grew up in the church that, "Oh your parents raised you that way" which isn't true. We all have had the choice to accept it or not. Being Mormon isn't easy; I don't know if there will be a day when being Mormon is easy. I have four wonderful nephews that I love and cherrish. I would do anything for them, when they are sad I do my best to make them happy. I am happy when they are happy. It reminds of our Savior and how much more he knows us, the good, the bad, and ugly. He wants to make us happy, he wants us to have joy in this life. When we are happy he is happy. As long as we are keeping the commandments. So if I want the best for my nephews how much more does he want the best for me? I am far from perfect and will never reach that perfection in my life. I know that through Jesus Christ I can become a better person. Each day is a battle to become a better person but if I try my best, I know that in the end when I have given it my all, I know that Jesus Christ will carry me the rest of the way. This is what being Mormon is about, to become better through Christ.
How I live my faith
I live my faith according to the example that Jesus Christ did, which is serving others. Going to church and being a missionary for the church is a great way for me in serving others. I get to share the wonderful gospel of Jesus Christ to others, and help them develop faith in him. Doing service for others not only brings me joy but also others that I come into contact with.

"In America alone, there are 40 million women over size 14, spending $25 billion a year on clothing, or a quarter of all clothing sales, according to American Demographics. So, why isn't there a Fashion Week event dedicated to showcasing fashions available to the curvy consumer?
There wasn't…until NOW!
A partnership of independent fashion designers, retailers, event producers, models and plus industry businesses, Full Figured Fashion Week (FFFWeek) was created to increase economic development in the area of plus size fashion design, clothing merchandising and plus modeling. Our goal is to highlight the very best in plus size fashions – both retail and independent designers, while providing an inaugural showcase of talented designers, models, stylists and plus industry businesses that serve the plus size consumer.
It is estimated that this long overdue and highly anticipated three-day fashion extravaganza (June 25-27, 2009) will debut before an audience of over 1500+ plus size fashion enthusiasts, style mavens, models, boutiques, vendors and the media."

OWENSBORO, KY (WFIE) - The construction firm for the new Owensboro Medical Health System facility met with local contractors and vendors to find potential workers.
Some are looking at this project to revive the local economy.
"It's a good opportunity for us to get some work," Mike Koger with Consolidated Mechanical said. "We need the jobs and it's going to be good for the community."
Koger said his business once employed 300 people but that number is down to 25.
If chosen to work on the new hospital, he said it could add 50 jobs to his company alone.
"We need more jobs," he said. "We need to keep the jobs we have here presently. Everybody is fighting for jobs right now in all the cities and opportunity that makes its way to Owensboro we like to grab a hold of it and move forward."
Turner Construction won the bid to build the new hospital and met with local employers Tuesday.
The Nashville-based company said it will only bring about 20 management workers to Owensboro.
The rest of the jobs will be hired locally.
"It just makes sense from a cost perspective," Merrill Bowers with Turner Construction said. "If the labor is here why don't we use the labor here?"
Turner Construction said it will contract between 700 and 1,200 local workers on site.
"There's probably more trades involved in a health care project than in any other type of project in the respect that if we were comparing it to an office building or a retail center," Bowers said. "We really have the entire gambit of the industry that will be required."

I´d like to play Violla and get the most beautiful sound(s)
The Seller
Good one, Seller, and so true. Brings to mind the British electric strings girl-group "Bond" if she were musically trained, Violla would fit right in with those beauties.
Marvellous Violla.
I love these girl so much. The photos today bewitched me. The magical body of Violla is so seductive and eroticly, that my heart hurts of love.
I have sung the praises of the one-piece swimsuit many times on this site. I always love how it hugs the contours of its wearer's body, glorifying its beautiful shapes while not being revealing. The effect is accentuated when that body is as spectacular as Violla's, so curvy and well-apportioned up top. She looks absolutely FABULOUS in yer yellow-green suit, it contrasts beautifully with her red hair and big brown eyes.
And she looks pretty f-ing marvelous once the suit comes off, as well. Gorgeous. What a body.
IMO the set of the day.
Pssst... fer realz, if you're out there.... I know you'll love Violla's one piece as much as I do!
The first 30 shots were, more or less, wasted on the water/light refraction gimmick.
They could have been the classic cheesecake/pinup/swimsuit stuff.
In spite of having a top photographer like Matiss and drop dead gorgeous Violla , this set falls well below expectations and is mediocre .The harsh lighting is more suitable for interrogation rather than erotic photographer . Not for me ,sorry Matiss .
I have to agree with you on this one, the lighting was just way! too intense, like someone was using a giant mirror to reflect the light from the sun directly at Violla, a real shame as it could otherwise have been a really nice update :-/
Are you talking about the set just above on this page? I couldn't disagree more.
Especially I want to see her in a clip, her wonderful tits alone would be worth it.
Violla has great titties and buttocks
I just left a comment on Sofi Shane's set about appreciating something different. Here, on the other hand, is the 62nd set of Violla, in the same style: bright, bright, bright. I've long enjoyed the work of Matiss, but after a few years (I think) of membership I'm beginning to yearn for some variety. It would be great if models could work with several photographers.
I like seeing models shoot with different photogs. Some of them have, some have not, but at Met I think the opportunity exists more than other sites.
Violla has been career Matiss at Met, don't know if she is on other sites. I would like to see someone else shoot her, not that Matiss has done a bad job, but for that different perspective. I like variety, too.

Spring is traditionally the biggest selling season of the year for home improvement chains. But this year, homeowners stepped out earlier to take advantage of the unseasonably warm winter weather across the United States.
Sales at Home Depot rose 5.9 percent to about $17.81 billion in the first quarter ended on April 29, but missed the analysts' average estimate of $17.96 billion.
"The sales miss could be linked to a mediocre increase in the average transaction value, which suggests continued so-so sales in big-ticket merchandise categories and a heavy influence from seasonal products," said Brian Sozzi, chief equities analyst at NBG Productions.
Net earnings rose to $1.04 billion, or 68 cents a share, from $812 million, or 50 cents a share, a year earlier.
Excluding a benefit from the termination of its guarantee of a senior secured loan, Home Depot earned 65 cents a share, meeting analysts' estimates, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
Home Depot, which has been quicker to cut costs than rival Lowe's, has benefited as housing demand has picked up in regions where it has a heavy presence. It has also gained from opening more centralized distribution facilities.
Sales at stores open at least a year rose 5.8 percent globally, including a 6.1 percent rise in the United States.
The company expects sales to pick up later in the year. It sees fiscal-year sales rising about 4.6 percent, up from its prior outlook calling for a 4 percent increase. It raised its profit outlook for the year to $2.90 a share from a prior forecast of $2.79.
Lowe's plans to report its quarterly results next week.
Shares of Home Depot were down 4.3 percent at $47.73 in premarket trading.

Boutique hotel on the way to downtown South Boston
SOUTH BOSTON, Va. (WSET) -- A new boutique hotel planned for downtown South Boston is building excitement for a possible economic boom.
Renovations haven't started just yet at the John Randolph hotel in Downtown South Boston, but the town plans to start those within the next year.
"This hotel is gonna breath new economic vitality to all of the town of South Boston and Halifax County," South Boston Town Manager Tom Raab said.
Raab said the town has been trying to renovate the hotel for several years and now they are finally getting the funds they need to get the job done.
"We're bringing a lot to the table, we're bringing about $5.5 million to the table to a developer who will help us come in and develop this property, which we guess is around an $8 million project," Raab said.
The town received millions of dollars between grant money and tax credits. The Tobacco Commission gave the town $600,000 to go towards the hotel at the town's last council meeting.
The hotel will have 27 rooms between three floors, a restaurant on the first floor and the very first rooftop bar for South Boston.
The hotel needs a lot of work at this point, but the town will be breaking ground in 2018 to start the process of revitalization.
"It'll generate a lot of foot traffic coming in," owner of Southern Frills Lauren Tetterton said.
She thinks the hotel will be key for the area.
"I think all the shops here will benefit from that and the hotel will also benefit from us being here," she said. "They'll have more things to do when more people come to visit the area. They can walk, shop, eat and enjoy a lot that South Boston has to offer."
Raab said this hotel will bring in more money for the town overall.
"The economic value of this property is getting it back on the tax roll," he said. "One we'll get the real estate taxes, so will the county."
He said they are probably looking $1.5 million worth of business coming into town.
Raab said they will start to look for a contractor and developer soon to discuss ideas for what the hotel will look like on the inside and outside.
He said the town will hopefully be able to open the doors to the new hotel by Spring of 2019.

Yesterday I finished our Scientific Research Project for school!
What a relief! Well, we still have to present it and such, but I'm glad the writing part is over!
We spent about 5 hours on Thursday working on it and yesterday I did some formatting and more writing.
I hope it's ok, as it seemed to be a nightmare at some parts!
This is for celebrating:
Have a nice day! :)

Faculty Spotlight: Dr. Will Banks
Dr. Will Banks is an associate professor of rhetoric and composition in the Department of English at East Carolina University. He holds a B.A. in Literary Studies from Georgia Southern University, an M.A. Literary Studies from Georgia Southern University, and a Ph.D. in English Studies from Illinois State University.
. . .
Where are you from?
I am from Louisville, GA.
What brought you to ECU?
I chose ECU because of the type of students we have here. ECU students are often the first generation in their families to attend college, as well as coming from a working class background. Those are students that I prefer to work with because the academy has worked so hard to keep them out.
What is your field and how did you first become interested in it?
My field of research is in Rhetoric and Composition, specifically queer rhetorics. I was interested in Rhet-Comp because of my previous experience teaching for several years. I've had the chance to work with many students – teaching literature, language, and writing — but I realized that I enjoy working with struggling student writers more than struggling student readers. I enjoy helping students to see why writing is important and all the options that careful, rhetorically sophisticated prose provides to the writer. While I was teaching at Georgia Southern University, I had the chance to participate in an Invitational Summer Institute of the National Writing Project, which also influenced my research interests and further solidified my commitment to working with writers and helping them develop voice and agency.
What life experience prepared you for your role at ECU?
I am one of those students from a working class and rural background that research suggests tend not to go on to higher education, or to be successful once there. Higher education is filled with invisible rules and tacit values that work very hard to exclude working class students and students of color. I am the type of person that wants to help students with access because many students of a working class background (like myself) may miss out on great opportunities, so I want to pull back the curtain and make some of those invisible blockades visible. When they're visible, we can work together to tear them down.
What recognitions and achievements are you most proud of and why?
One of my biggest accomplishments here at ECU has been raising combined internal/external funding of over 2.5 million dollars to support ECU students and eastern NC teachers. That level of grant funding is nearly unheard of in an English department and the humanities generally. While that took away from my book-writing time, it has meant that ECU finally has a real writing center, which helps over 3,000 students per year with their writing, and it means that area K-12 teachers have had free or low-cost access to graduate education focused on writing, which is usually absent or under-developed in their undergraduate education. Over 1 million of those dollars has gone to professionalize K-12 teachers in our area and help them become teacher-researchers in their own classrooms who present their research at national conferences.
What is your favorite part of your job?
Working with students. Period.
Describe one of the most rewarding courses you've taught in your time at ECU.
Summer Study Abroad in London! Taking ECU students, many of whom have never flown on a plane, to experience a new culture where they see themselves and their culture differently has been amazing. Students are able to study writing, literature, theatre, and culture in a new context, and also explore new places, where people of many cultures think differently from the ways we do in the United States. Also, being able to collaborate with Dr. Rick Taylor is always exciting! He has been the single most important professional mentor in my career, and his commitment to this program – and to keeping it affordable so that study abroad isn't just for the rich kids – is so important.


text: Of course, it's just the employees fault for the struggles. It couldn't possibly be the fault of those eff-ups that are running the show. That's just lip service. We couldn't get our problems solved locally so we reached out for help from the higher ups, people just like him. And everything fell on deaf ears. The "Good old boys club" in upper management didn't do for us, even after we proved what was going on. They will tell you anything just to silence the lambs, but won't do about any of the real issues.

Junction City/Harrisburg/Monroe Habitat for Humanity Junction City/Harrisburg/Monroe Habitat for Humanity
Here's a sample of our volunteer opportunities:VIEW AS
Mission Statement
Habitat for Humanity works in partnership with God and people everywhere, from all walks of life, to develop communities with people in need by building and renovating houses, so that there are decent houses in decent communities in which every person can experience God's love and can live and grow into all that God intends.
Habitat for Humanity is a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian housing ministry, seeking to eliminate poverty housing and homelessness from the world and to make decent shelter a matter of conscience and action. Habitat does this by inviting people of all backgrounds, races and religions to build houses together in partnership with families in need. Partner families to receive a Habitat home are chosen based on their level of need, their willingness to become partners in the program and their ability to repay the no-interest loan. Every affiliate follows a nondiscriminatory policy of family selection. Neither race nor religion is a factor in choosing the families who receive Habitat houses. Habitat for Humanity's work is accomplished at the community level by affiliates -- independent, locally run, nonprofit organizations. Junction City/Harrisburg/Monroe Habitat for Humanity affiliate serves people who live or work in the Junction City, Harrisburg and Monroe school districts.

2. When heaving a shovelful of snow away, don't do it upwind of yourself. Sadly it took me several repetitions to learn this before I realized that it wasn't actually snowing again, that I was just snowing on myself.
3. Don't use a shovel that's significantly shorter than you are. Shoveling while stooped is a recipe for a largely immobile rest of the day.
Also, I spent a not insignificant amount of time trying to excavate a particularly stubborn block of ice out on the back porch before it finally all came out in one chunk and I learned that it was actually the frozen stiff welcome mat.
Live and learn, everybody.

LOVE the new look! Have fun living the 40's style dream. Life is good--so many paths, so many possibilities.ReplyDelete
Heaps of Hugs,
You look beautiful :O)ReplyDelete
Thank you ladies! I spent some time tonight dreaming of longer hair and the styles I will soon be able to do! Grow hair, grow!ReplyDelete
oh my gosh Michele I love your hair! It's adorable! Love love love that do, I wish I knew how to do those rolls!!! It looks so cute on you :)ReplyDelete
Glad the air con is now fixed. Have a lovely Summer!
Thanks Natasha! Maybe one day I will brave up and do a youtube vid to show how I do my hair. There are a ton on there already but none that I could see with short hair. LOVE your work! Cupcakes are special and love the paintings of the dresses! Talented lady!ReplyDelete
Happy Memorial Day Friend! I adore your blog & I'm so glad I found you. I look forward to following you through life's adventures!ReplyDelete
Hi Michele! I found your blog somehow as I was looking for inspiration to style my hair in the 40s fashion. Unfortunately, I have curly hair (very difficult to tame, I HATE it!). But nonetheless I would like to make something with a bun that keeps all my hair together. Are there any links? I appreciate your help! Kind regards from Switzerland, DorisReplyDelete
P.S.: I'm a bear artist too... :-)
HI DorisReplyDelete
I can barely see your photo but I think I can see your hair. So you want to make a chignon correct (a low bun on the back of the neck)? You can put it in a low pony tail, use a bit of firm hold moose on your dry or almost dry hair, wrap your bun and then the trick it to apply a hair net that matches your hair over top. Actually if you can find or make a crocheted one in a colour that matches your outfit that would be very 1940's. Usually this works like a charm! If I find you a link I will add i ton my blog.
Thanks for the comment and I am pleased to see you here and maybe help out a bit with your BEAUTIFUL curly hair!
Soooo Pretty!!!ReplyDelete

The Early Bird: New Top Releases Reviewed 1-5-18 – 1-11-18
The only new album I've been able to scour up is DIY stalwart Jeff Rosenstock's mix and match of punk and post-punk power pop on the aptly named Post, an awful good hi-energy manic depression post-Trump et tu USA (Grade B+). PS "USA" is the first song of my new to 2018 best songs of the year category.
And that is all I can find for albums… but singles? Let's start with the best news of 2018, after the execrable 2016 Trolls Soundtrack, with contender of worst big time hit single ever, "Can't Stop The Feeling," I had very big time worries over the upcoming Justin Timberlake album, but the first single "Filthy" is the first great single of 2018. A genre switch-up funk to dance to electronic tempo shape shifter that is so great it took me by storm, Timberland and Timberlake (and Danja) share production chores and the song is a smackdown for future sex lovers everywhere. Man Of The Woods might be a masterpiece, "Filthy" certainly is (Grade: A)
If there is a bigger disappointment in the 2010s than Patrick Stickle's inability to follow up The Monitor, it is Conor Oberst's inability to follow up Conor Oberst. Two years after Titus Andronicus great but not great enough, though if "Fatal Flaw" failed to break Titus Andronicus into E Street Band land, you can't blame Patrick for thinking "fuck em, let me follow my muse". "Number One (In New York)" is all preamble and no song, acoustic by liu of its lack of electric guitar it is ten minutes of sludging downward spiral, it's like a waltz that can't dance. Yet, I love it because I am a sucker for the band, when they aren't clicking they still sound unique and alive and deadly and depressed. Grade: B+
Kendrick Lamar rights a problem I've had with him all through Damn., he can't write songs. With SZA (a woman I don't much care for at all… till now), he finally writes an excellent r&b track for the soundtrack to the Marvel black superhero flick "Black Panther". A terrific funk soul twister, and SZA sounds so good I may just have got her wrong. Grade: B+. It's good to have The Vaccines back with a piece of rock and roll bubblegum by the always welcome UK boys on the thumping "I Can't Quit," Grade: B+. And Fetty Wap, the laziest man in trap, with a echoey and slurred but pretty good "With You" builds to a terrific conclusion. Grade: B+
So, a very impressive first week of the new year.

For a hundred years, life expectancy grew. Now, rising health inequality could change thatby Michael Marmot / March 21, 2018 / Leave a comment
Published in April 2018 issue of Prospect Magazine
Britain in 2011 was a better place to live than Britain in 1921. We know this because people, on average, live much longer now. In 1921, men in England and Wales had a life expectancy of 56 years and women of 60 years. Ninety years on the figures were 79 and 83 years for men and women respectively—a 23 year improvement in only 90 years; one year extra in lifespan for every four years that passed. It's not that staying alive is everything—although it is a rather important precondition to doing anything else. Rather, I put such weight on it because it correlates with other measures of health, many of which we can't measure so well.
A long-lived society tends to be a healthier society, and health, in turn, is a good reflection of how well a society is doing—better, I would argue, than GDP. In a flourishing society that is meeting the needs of its members, those members will generally have long and healthy lives. For example, it was clear that the Soviet Union and its client states in Central and Eastern Europe were not good places to live in the 1970s and 1980s because health was so bad. Year on year, life expectancy improved in "western" Europe and stagnated or sometimes declined in the east. Then, in Russia particularly, things got worse again. When the Soviet Union dissolved, average incomes went down, while the spread of incomes got wider, and life expectancy collapsed.
Happily, though, England and Wales have generally been part of that healthy trend in the west. But there are now two clouds over this rosy picture of health, and therefore society, improving ineluctably. The first is inequality. In the aftermath of the Grenfell fire in 2017, I noted that in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, life expectancy for men in the area around Grenfell was 14 years s…

Advocates of a county-backed curbside recycling program often cite Frederick County's program as a model. Annmarie Creamer, recycling outreach program coordinator for Frederick County, provided the following answers to questions about Frederick County's program.
Q. When did Frederick County institute a curbside recycling program?
A. Frederick County's curbside recycling service began as a pilot program for 4,000 homes in 1991. It has since grown to include all single-family homes, making over 74,500 households eligible to participate.
Q. Is the program countywide and single-stream?
A. Yes.
Q. How much does the program cost the county per year?
A. The curbside collection costs in calendar year 2011 were over $3.2 million. This does not include costs for carts (which are county owned), the cost of materials processing or other programmatic costs such as support staffing or outreach.
Q. How is it funded?
A. The landfill and related solid waste management and recycling programs are funded through a combination of user fees, some of which are levied at the solid waste facility in the form of tipping fees and some on the property tax bills, the latter referred to as a System Benefit Charge (SBC).
Q. How did you see your residential recycling rates change when you instituted curbside recycling?
A. When curbside was implemented in 1991, it had a significant impact on the amount of overall recycling in the county because the total amount of recyclable tons was so low. Now since the aggregate tons of recyclables has grown so large, changes in the curbside program have much smaller impacts on the overall amount of recyclables recovered. However, either way, the curbside program is a major contributor to the residential recycling effort in the county.
Q. What effect has it had on landfill life or costs?
A. Most of Frederick County's trash is trucked out-of-state to other landfills, therefore it has mainly served to reduce the amount of municipal solid waste sent to other landfills. For comparison purposes, the economic recession has decreased the county's disposable waste more within the last three years than the decrease caused by increases in the curbside recycling program.

Sometimes the Ninemile Valley, my Montana sweet spot, grabs me by the shoulders and gives me a solid shake.
"Wake up!" she shouts. "Look around!"
On this first day of 2011, I did just that.
An icy-blue sky welcomed the new year and with the thermometer registering -3 degrees, we had to get outside. A gleaming white day with a recent, brilliant snowfall beckoned us like a siren we couldn't resist. The dogs leapt and pranced as I layered and bundled. With tails wagging wildly, slapping and bruising my shins, I hurried into my boots and jacket and mittens. We tumbled out of the backdoor and off the deck and into the snow.
Welcome, 2011!
That first deep breath was like a gulp of ice water…fresh and crisp and sharp. We opted for the main road, snow packed and clear and bright with sunshine. A winter meander, I knew, would bring good karma for the coming months. On this quiet and frigid day, only an occasional truck passed. We ambled up valley, drinking in the winter landscape and examining fresh tracks in the snow.
It never gets old, living in rural Montana. Weather and subtle light and seasons weave with trees and mountains, reminding Ninemile residents that our quota of luck ran out the day we moved to the valley. The rest is simply a bonus, which is how I feel each day I wake and look out the window.

Somebody Nobody: Tell Me Three Things
Review: Tell Me Three Things by Julie Buxbaum
Title: Tell Me Three Things
Author: Julie Buxbaum
Pages: 336
Publisher: Delacorte Press
Publish Date: April 5, 2016
Genre: Young Adult Contemporary
Synopsis: Everything about Jessie is wrong. At least, that's what it feels like during her first week of junior year at her new ultra-intimidating prep school in Los Angeles. Just when she's thinking about hightailing it back to Chicago, she gets an email from a person calling themselves Somebody/Nobody (SN for short), offering to help her navigate the wilds of Wood Valley High School. Is it an elaborate hoax? Or can she rely on SN for some much-needed help?
It's been barely two years since her mother's death, and because her father eloped with a woman he met online, Jessie has been forced to move across the country to live with her stepmonster and her pretentious teenage son.
In a leap of faith—or an act of complete desperation—Jessie begins to rely on SN, and SN quickly becomes her lifeline and closest ally. Jessie can't help wanting to meet SN in person. But are some mysteries better left unsolved?
Julie Buxbaum mixes comedy and tragedy, love and loss, pain and elation, in her debut YA novel filled with characters who will come to feel like friends.
I mentioned this on FB, and maybe Goodreads, but I've actually been in a reading slump for a few weeks now. Sometimes all you need is a 5-star contemporary novel, which is what I rated Tell Me Three Things. Tell Me Three Things pulled me out of my reading slump. Some novels just give you hope for the booking world, it's just that amazing. Tell Me Three Things was one of those books.
Let's just squee about the cover real quick. Look at it! LOOK AT IT! It's so PRETTY! The simplicity with the faint cursive... I just love it! Plus, it makes me hungry. Side note, while reading this book I started craving waffles so I had to go out and buy me some.
Tell Me Three Things is about a girl named Jessie who's mom died 2 years ago, and her dad just got remarried, moving them out to LA. Jessie has a horrible first day of school, and later that night an anonymous person emails her, calling himself Somebody Nobody. He gives her advice and is just a friend for her. Now Jessie tries to figure out who this SN is while trying to manage a new life in LA, making new friends and whatnot.
The only fault I had with this book was with JessieJessie is supposedly this average looking teenager (calling herself ugly but she wasn't really ugly) who has never had a boyfriend. She made out with the boy next door (who dates her bff), but had never had a boyfriend. Then she moves to Wood Valley and has all these guys pining for her? I get that it's a cliche (and as Jessie stated sometimes cliches are nice) but not this one! The girl doesn't get all of the guys. I could understand one and maybe SN, but not over three! I'm sorry but that's not realistic.
I only read contemporary for the realism which is why I didn't like that part. It was nice how Buxbaum worked it into the story. That piece just wasn't for me (yet it didn't bring my rating down).
Everything else was magicalI use magical in the sense of it not having anything to actually do with magic. This book was just pure awesomesauce. I love reading nerdy books because I get to bring out my nerdy vocabulary. It's just great.
Tell Me Three Things gave me all the feels. It was adorable and just pure swoon-worthy. I loved each of the characters because they just added so much to the storyline. My favorite would probably have been Ethan. He seemed like the sort of guy I would like (I know) but I just like his character. I felt for him when he couldn't sleep and thought he was so sweet when he recited poetry because he actually reads poetry!
I thought the Wood Valley kids had ridiculous names, which is why I laughed whenever they were brought up. They had 3 Hannibals and 5 Romeos!
Honestly, Tell Me Three Things was an easy and lovely read. I love this world, the characters were fantastic, and I loved the little mystery of SN. Everyone should read this book. I don't care if you don't like contemporary, it's not my typical cup of tea but I loved it.

Do I Have A Wrongful Death Claim Or A Workers' Comp Claim After My Husband Was Killed From Being Struck By An Object At Work?
We are saddened to hear of your loss. Unfortunately, there are many people who suffer fatal injuries at work, especially after being struck by an object. In fact, the Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries reports that 12 percent of fatal work injuries in this nation in 2012 occurred due to individuals being struck by an object or piece of equipment.
There are many objects that can cause fatal injuries when striking workers. Sometimes, objects fall off a shelf, workers overhead drop something onto a worker below, or a flying or moving object strikes a worker. When this happens, workplace fatalities can occur. No matter what type of industry your husband was in—whether he was a construction worker, warehouse worker, office worker, logger, or transportation worker—you are entitled to benefits for your losses and his injuries.
Although you may be entitled to a Florida workers' comp case, it is possible that it will be in your best interest to pursue a wrongful death claim to access benefits you wouldn't be able to get in a workers' compensation claim. To make sure you get the full amount of benefits you are entitled to under the law, contact an experienced South Florida workers' comp attorney as soon as possible.
We would be glad to meet with you in a free consultation and review your case specifics in more detail. For help navigating your claim and to get the most compensation possible, contact the Law Offices of David Benenfeld at [number type="2″] or [number type="1″] today.

Founded in 1972, the company JHSF has grown over four decades to become one of the leaders in the real estate sector in Brazil. Their target is mostly the more lucrative high-income earners with most of their development projects revolving around upscale hotels, shopping centers, and an exclusive international airport. The management of JHSF is known for having the eye to identify new business opportunities in its line of work, and this has been a major contributor to its growth since its inception.
JHSF has most of its operations based in capital cities such as Sao Paulo and Manaus to take advantage of the high population of high-income earners. The company has segmented its real estate business into four main categories of operation; Malls, Incorporations, Hotels and restaurants, and Executive Airport. To keep up with the worldwide trend in real estate of focusing investment on recurring income areas such as administration of shopping malls and high standard hotels, JHSF turned its focus to such areas with developments such as Catarina Executive airport and Catarina fashion outlet. These, in turn, have led to a significant rise in the company's revenue.
The success that JHSF has enjoyed over the years is credited to the guidance of Jose Auriemo Neto, the firm's president and CEO. Jose succeeded his father, Fabio Auriemo, who was the president of the company until five years ago. José was the brain behind the construction of one of the largest real estate complex in Brazil on the edge of the Marginal Pinheiros.
Jose's work not only revolves around overseeing the brands interest in office building but also administers his company's shopping and retail portfolio which has grown to become quite extensive over the years. The company has been involved in many retail ventures which have grown to become huge success stories.

Agatti Islands(Lakshdweep) [India] Mar 10(ANI): The Chief Operating Officer(COO) of MAERSK Group have thanked the Indian Coast Guard (ICG) for its help in dousing the flames that broke out on the container ship named Maersk Honam near Agatti Island, off the coast of Lakshadweep in the Arabian Sea.
While the search and rescue operations were still on, the COO conveyed his appreciation to the ICG and thanked both the commander and crew of the ICG vessel 'Shoor' for their prompt reply to their call for help.
"We appreciate the strong commitment by the Indian Coast Guard to assist us in this difficult situation and remain at your availability" he wrote in the letter.
A massive chemical fire had broken out on the container ship Maersk Honam three days ago, following an explosion. There were 27 people on board the ship, including 13 Indians.
The incident took place about 390 Nautical Miles from India's Agatti Islands at Lakshadweep
Maritime Rescue Coordination Center (MRCC) Mumbai of the Indian Coast Guard had received a SOS message from Singapore flagged Maersk Honam at 9:45 p.m. on Tuesday regarding the fire.
23 out of 27 people have been rescued till now, while search operations are continuing to locate the four missing crew members.
The rescue operation is being carried out jointly by the ICG and the MRCC.
The ship had left Singapore on March 1 and was sailing towards Suez.
An Indian Navy Boeing P8i plane was dispatched on Wednesday from Tamil Nadu's Arakkonam to look for the four missing crew members. (ANI)

In comparison to its most direct rivals, the Honda Accord coupe continues to outclass them all. With aggressive styling (especially when compared to the sedan), the Accord makes a strong statement anywhere it's driven. The standard four-cylinder engine is fairly powerful, but if you have the means, the V6 is a truly wonderful engine upgrade. Honda specializes in this class of cars and the attention to detail shows.
Everything is so well put together, from the engine mated to the optional six-speed manual transmission, a sport-tuned suspension, to the 18 inch alloy wheels, the coupe truly feels like a fantastic everyday sports car. Its closest rivals, mainly the Nissan Altima coupe, Hyundai Genesis coupe, and even the Ford Mustang, don't quite have the solid feeling the Accord coupe confidently provides drivers and passengers alike.

Bring back the original McDonalds french fry!
0 have signed. Let's get to 100!
You may be asking yourself, "Why should I care about the McDonald's french fry when there are so many other seemingly more important causes to fight for". Well, what would you say if I told you that you have been robbed of a delicious taste sensation that is your God given right as an American? (This is also applicable to citizens of the dozens of other countries that McDonald's has expanded to whether or not you have a constitution or a democratically elected government). That's right folks, since 1990 whenever you have ordered french fries from McDonalds, you have been served a pale imitation of the real thing. You see, in 1990, McDonalds was facing public criticism due to the amount of saturated fats in its french fries. In an effort to stop the incessant nagging, McDonalds changed its fry oil from beef tallow to vegetable oil. The result was reduced saturated fat and reduced deliciousness. Say goodbye delicious crispy golden french fries and hello to the limp pale disappointing impostor. For those of you who are not fortunate enough to have ever tasted the original, I weep for you. Sign this petition so that your children don't have to grow up in a world of limp pale disappointing french fries.
Disclaimer - I am not a doctor, a health professional, or even a nutritionist so if McDonald's actually goes back to the old recipe and you decide to eat french fries everyday because they are so delicious don't blame me if you have a heart attack. Moderation people.

Please welcome the newest member of our family. Joel and I took Bentley to the vet for his regular check up and to see if there is a reason for his rotund bod. As we walked in we saw a large cage with a note attached "8 week old kitten, free to good home" Well, Joel of course says "I have always wanted a kitten!" I agreed to try it over the weekend and see how we all do. John is known quite well for his jokes about cats, such as: Cats should all me named Target, The only good cat is a dead cat...you know the drill. To our suprise, when we walked in he only shook his head and laughed. I asked John to name him. He said "Cat". So please give a warm welcome to "Cat". He is very sweet and very patient with Bentley. He hasn't hissed or swatted once at him...i think he knows who is king in the house! This were pretty wild there for a few days with Bentley the Cat hunter on the loose, but as you can see...we are find now. If fact they may be partners in crime...I came home yesterday to find them both munching on a tipped over cat food container!

"Time Is Not on My Side": A College Student with ADHD and a Reading Disability
College students with ADHD and/or learning disabilities are more likely than their peers to encounter problems adjusting to school including utilizing less effective coping skills to meet the academic and social demands of higher education, experiencing more distraction, reporting higher rates of internal restlessness and depressive symptoms, achieving lower GPAs and being more likely to be placed on probation. This chapter describes the case of a young college student with ADHD and mild dyslexia who had trouble adapting to college life due to poor time management, deficient problem-solving skills and poor decision-making which led to his needing to take a medical leave. The case illustrates the need to assess how well college students with ADHD and related disorders can handle the executive functioning demands that college life requires. It reviews the key constituents of executive function including conscientiousness, self-management, self-control, distress tolerance (grit), and open mindset. It also emphasizes the need to prepare these students to confront their difficulties directly, to avail themselves of college resources (including accommodations and coaching), and to adhere as completely as possible to treatment recommendations. This includes thorough planning prior to leaving for school, use of techniques of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and medication management.

Thank you Shay, Sheaffer, and Mel for letting me join in on this fun "What's Up Wednesday" post! Below is a monthly round up of my life this June.
What we're eating this week...
Below are three of my recent recipe tries and all of them have been de-licous!
Sticky Sesame Cauliflower
Baked Ratatouille
1/2 cup rolled oats
1 tbsp peanut butter
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 medium banana or berries
1/2 cup non-dairy milk (rice, coconut or almond)
Mix all together and let it sit in the fridge overnight!
What I'm reminiscing about?
Last year's July 4th! It was a day full of laughs, sunshine, delicious food, and fireworks!
What I'm loving...
Rumor has it that Victoria Secret will stop carrying bathing suits and intends to narrow their focus back to lingerie, undies and their PINK line. This is a little upsetting because they have very cute and affordable suits. SO I am loving my last summer suit order from VS and cannot wait for its arrival for the long weekend!
|I LOVE this color bottom!
|With this "neon lotus" top!
What we've been up to...
We have been trying to squeeze in lots of date nights and drinks! It has been so much fun to just be focusing on husband and wife time!
|Yum! Bar Taco!
What I'm dreading...
With the beautiful beach days that Florida always delivers, it also brings along the dreaded high humidity!! My hair and humidity are. not. friends.
What I'm working on?
Our little fixer upper is one year old!! Hard to believe but the time has flown by. We have put a lot of time and love into the inside to make it our own. We are now moving to the outside... curb appeal, baby! We recently added shutters (yea!) and we also want to add a white washed brick siding accent, paint the house and rebuild the porch. I am tired just typing out that list! Specifically, this long weekend I hope to paint the front door a light aqua color and install light hardware touches to our garage door to add some needed character!
|...or at least I hope this is my "after" picture!
What I'm excited about...
Some time off of work and Sparklers!!!!!!!!!!!!
What I'm watching...
Game of Thrones' Season 6 has come and gone and left us with a lot to ponder until next season. I can't get enough of Daenerys and the other strong female characters written in this show... and of course, there is always #JonSnow.
What I'm listening to...
Lots of "Parenthood" as I drift off to sleep at night. I have a very bad habit of putting in my earbuds and watching/listening to my iPad to doze off (because it takes my husband .2 seconds to fall fast asleep)... this does mean that 6 out of 7 nights of the week I wake up tangled in wires.
What I'm wearing...
I cannot wait to hang out in my July 4th gear!
Also, this awesome lightweight dress is a great summertime find!
What I'm doing this weekend...
Lots of beach, sunshine and quality family time celebrating the Fourth with loved ones!
What I'm looking forward to next month...
Continuing to move forward with this blog! I am always in need of help and guidance so any tips are ALWAYS welcome! :):):):):)
June Bonus!
What is your favorite July 4th tradition and/or recipe...
Growing up, my "go to" July Fourth dessert was a vanilla cake with cool whip icing along with strawberries and blueberries added in the shape of the flag.. This year I will stick with my lil' tradition but take it a step further:)
I will be making a Patriotic Poke Cake which is my good ol' recipe with a fancier twist.
Thanks for reading and have a great day!

CAIRO, IL (KFVS) - Water experts say the water in Cairo is not harmful for your health. However, residents are still concerned.
John Lawrence says he's been boiling the minerals out of his tap water for about two weeks. He says if he doesn't it will damage his appliances.
"Otherwise the sediment is going to clog up my coffee pot," Lawrence said.
Experts say the buildup is caused by calcium and other minerals in well water.
American Water Company officials say they switched service from river water to well water on August 21. They say the well water service is only temporary. Officials say they installed the well so customers would still have water service during maintenance to the old system.
Water quality expert Rachel Bretz says the water is safe to drink; the minerals in well water are not harmful.
However, Lawrence is concerned about extra costs.
"This water heater should last ten years but I'm extremely certain that's it's only going to be good for eight years because of the sediment," Lawrence said.
One plumber says hard water with an extreme amount of calcium could cause water heaters to be less-efficient, but only if hard water is being used for a long period of time.
American Water Company officials say they plan to have the other system up and running within the next three weeks, meaning they will no longer provide well water service.

Court dismisses Ricky Tarfa's objection, assumes jurisdiction to hear case
A Lagos State High Court in Igbosere, yesterday dismissed Ricky Tarfa's preliminary objection to the charge of obstructing officers of law from carrying out their official duties and attempting to pervert the cause of justice.
In a ruling lasting for almost two hours, Justice Aishat Opesanwo, also assumed jurisdiction to entertain the two-count charge filed against Tarfa by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
The embattled Senior Advocate of Nigeria had, in an application filed through his counsel, Abiodun Owonikoko, argued that the case was an abuse of court process and urged the court to quash the charge and decline jurisdiction.
Owonikoko argued among others, that the authority of EFCC to prosecute is limited to economic and financial crimes, which the alleged offences of obstructing officers of law and attempting to perverse the cause of justice were not.
He also argued that the commission had no powers to prosecute general criminal offences outside its jurisdiction, noting the allegations against Tarfa are the subject of an appeal before the Court of Appeal, and the charges constitute an abuse of court process.
Tarfa's counsel further stated that by virtue of Section 286 of the Administration of Criminal Justice Law 2004, the EFCC could not be a complainant, an investigator and at the same time, a prosecutor.
"The filing of this charge is a clear case of abuse of court process, therefore the proper order is to dismiss the charge," he stated.
