Could you just
July 15, 2015 § 4 Comments
Could you just cover me with a blanket and make me some tea,
Treat me like a small child who's slipped and grazed her knee?
Could you kiss my brow and hold my hand, and tell me that you understand?
Could you hold me tight; say it'll be alright?
Could you just?
Could you just make it stop?
Just for a day so I can catch my breath, catch my thoughts, catch my dreams again.
Hold them up to the light
And remember why I started this fight.
Could you just?
Could you just be there, on my kitchen chair
With a smile, or a song, or a joke to cheer me on?
I know I'll be fine, but could you remind me sometimes?
Could you just?
Could you sit in silence beneath inky skies
While the sorrow wells in my weary eyes?
Could you just be there when the day's too long,
Could you just?

AMERI deal: Gov't swindling Ghanaians – Bawumia
Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia
The vice presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has waded into the controversial AMERI power deal accusing government of swindling Ghanaians.
Addressing old students of Prempeh College in Kumasi in the Ashanti region, Dr. Bawumia said government is still hiding relevant facts about the deal.
According to him, the Mahama-led administration is ripping off the state with the deal.
"The issue of the AMERI power deal is the latest episode of issues bothering on corruption and failure to ensure value for money for the people of Ghana.
"This contract does not make sense," Dr. Bawumia said Friday.
The contract between the Power ministry and AMERI has become a matter of public concern following media reports of inflation and malfeasance regarding the contract sum.
According to the contract, there is a variable cost of $16.6m every year, which translates into additional $83m for the five-year period.
This makes the total cost of the project $593m.
In addition to the cost, the Government of Ghana is to provide free utilities, free housing, site for storage, prepare site for the installation of the plant, as well as interconnect facilities to connect the plant to the national grid.

The Melbourne Archdiocese is selling the birth site of St Mary MacKillop to St Vincent's Private Hospital ahead of a $57 million redevelopment. Source: Herald Sun.
The proposed expansion of the Fitzroy hospital has angered locals who fear the demolition of significant heritage buildings in the area. They also say St Mary's birth site is at risk because of the development.
But Melbourne Archdiocese director of media and communications Shane Healy said the development was not a threat to the birth site.
"St Vincent's are in the process of acquiring the property from the Archdiocese of Melbourne and are respectful and aware of the responsibilities that come with ownership of the site," he said.
"St Vincent's Hospital plans do not propose to build over this sacred site nor the building overhang of the actual birthplace."
Mr Healy said the hospital had a permit to develop the site.
A Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal challenge related only to conditions imposed by the City of Yarra regarding the height of the new building and heritage concerns but not the birthplace.
The $57 million redevelopment will include eight additional operating theatres, a new 12-chair day oncology unit, more consulting suites and 90 new inpatient rooms.
Fitzroy Residents' Association chair Martin Brennan said the group was "opposed to the over development and its impact on the heritage value of the buildings that will be impacted".
"The birthplace of Mary MacKillop is also of value to a number of residents in our community," he said.
"The proposed development is an over reach by a hospital that should have more regard for its place in our community."
Born in Brunswick Street, Fitzroy, in 1842, Mary MacKillop was canonised in 2010, 101 years after her death.
Her sainthood capped a remarkable turnaround for a woman who was once excommunicated after a dispute with Church hierarchy. She spent her life devoted to educating the young and helping the poor and disadvantaged.

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- Shaken by the nation's worst banking crisis since World War I, the U.K. economy has likely entered a recession and faces a "long march" back to stability, said Mervyn King, governor of the Bank of England.
"The combination of a squeeze on real take-home pay and a decline in the availability of credit poses the risk of a sharp and prolonged slowdown in domestic demand," the central bank chief said. "Indeed, it now seems likely that the U.K. economy is entering a recession. Read his speech.
Speaking in Leeds on Tuesday evening, King signaled further rate cuts by the bank, saying the slowdown would bring inflation down to the 2% target, with risks that the downturn could be worse.
"This is the time not to abandon but to reinforce our commitment to stability," he said. "During the past month, the balance of risks to inflation in the medium term shifted decisively to the downside," he said, adding that the bank will continue to monitor inflation carefully.
Despite his gloomy assessment of the economy, King said progress can already be seen from the government's extraordinary decision to recapitalize the major banks.
"With the bank recapitalization plan in place, we now face a long, slow haul to restore lending to the real economy, and hence growth of our economy, to more normal conditions," King said.
"We are far from the end of the road back to stability, but the plan to recapitalize our banking system, both here and abroad, will I believe come to be seen as the moment in the banking crisis of the past year when we turned the corner," he said.
But he cautioned that the recapitalization plan is only a temporary fix, not a permanent solution. The freezing of interbank lending was only "the symptom of deeper structural problems in the banking sector," he said.
The sharp drop in oil prices will also support growth real incomes, he said.

The DE differs radically from all traditional encyclopedias so far – including Wikipedia. It enables productive exchange of opinions on controversial issues that raise strong passions.
The basic idea of the encyclopedia is simple:
There can be as many articles on the same subject/headword as there are different views. The writers are encouraged to express their views as distinctly and sharply as possible. Objectivity will be achieved by the possibility to evaluate opposite views side by side.
The users compile panels consisting of articles representing different, even opposing views and moderate debates based on them.
There are two main themes:
1. Human path – the history of humankind.
2. The history of the nation.
Each participant, opinion group or scientific school leads the discussion in its own way. The discussion takes place in special theme encyclopedias, personal debating encyclopedias, and on platforms.
The project needs a technical platform with certain basic features:
1. Archives of the DE
User Accounts
- Private persons under their own name
- Institutions – e.g. states, parties, associations, companies, organizations, bureaus
The users will have their own profile pages with photographs and informal introductions of themselves. In addition, the profile pages contain statistics of the users' activities in the DE and the feedback they have received.
Writings, Speeches and Videos Uploaded by the Users
- Statements meant for debate panels. They have limits of length, for example:
– Micro theses – 350 characters / 2 minutes
– Theses – 3500 characters / 10 minutes
- Articles. More comprehensive statements, the maximum length of which is, for example, 20 sheets / 1 hour.
- Statements intended to the Annua Review of the Humankind's Self-knowledge.
The users can share all the statements uploaded in the DE on their own pages and on debate panels started by them. They can also comment the statements in the archive. When the users show their liking ("thumbs"), they weigh not only the content of a statement but also the debate culture shown. Other users can also donate some amount of money to a writer whose article they value (see The Users' Possibilities to Make Money)
Message Board
On the message board, there is a search engine by which all the activities and archived contents in the DE can be found.
2. Debate Panels
Every user of the DE can start a debate panel / panels. They have the following characteristics:
- •There are 2 to 5 opening statements in a panel representing different – preferably opposite – stands or opinions on the topic in question.
- The opening statements can be self-written or copied from the archives of the DE.
- •There are limits of length for the statements (see…). Longer statements (articles) can be used as an opening statement by making summaries of them or by taking quotations from them.
- selects the opening statements,
- invites and selects the participants for the panel, either personally or via a public invitation on the message board,
- •moderates the discussion, monitors the manners of discussion, structures the discussion, decides whether it is practical to divide the topic into subtopics, and decides when to close the panel,
- dismisses a heckling participant when necessary.
3. The Users' Personal Pages
There can be three kinds of personal pages:
- •Theme Encyclopedias focus on some specific topic. They can be founded by an individual, a group, or an organization.
- Platforms are associations of the like-minded. They can be based on, for example, a party or electoral platform, views of a school of thought, or a single opinion.
- Personal Debating Encyclopedias are pages of an individual person. By time, they form a kind of summary of the user's interests in as well political and world-view questions as in the field of culture and leisure activities.
Founders of personal pages can pick up material on their pages from the archives of the DE – debate panels or individual statements, for example – and add external links, reading lists, etc.
An essential technical feature is the users' possibility to structure the contents of their sites – to organize it into topics, subtopics, and side topics.
The founders have the right to decide who may participate the discussions on their sites. They moderate the discussion and are responsible for ensuring that inappropriate comments and troublemakers are removed from discussion.
Besides, in the framework of the personal pages, it is possible to pursuit publishing and other kinds of business activity and to arrange live happenings, webinars, and educational courses.
- An example of a theme encyclopedia: our proposal to Sitra "Finland 100 years – towards honest Finland". "Suomi 100 vuotta – kohti rehellistä Suomea".
4. State of Humankind's Self-knowledge – Annual Review
This annual review consists of two parts: the state of the nation and the state of the world.
Compilations of the articles intended to the annuals can also be published in a variety of anthologies, as well in the internet as in print, e.g. via online publishers. Schools, school classes, educational institutions in general, hobby circles, political parties, working communities, NGOs, governments, for example, can publish their own annuals.
(See the article (In Finnish) What will there be after the Worldwatch Institutes State of the World Annual Review?)
5. Juries
In order to function properly, the DE needs a jury that supervises the debate culture. Ideally, the jury would consist of representatives of parliamentary parties and judicial authorities, academic researchers, opinion leaders, and citizens who have shown exceptional sense of justice in the debates within the DE. The jury could resolve dispute cases and give recognition awards for just debate culture and notes for the absence of it. It should also have a right to shut down user accounts.
The jury, or at least a part of it, could be elected through a general ballot. Each language area should have a jury of its own.
6. Local Clubs
Successful social media platforms, such as Wikipedia, Facebook, and Twitter, are unable to start local clubs that organize ideologico-political debates or debates on worldviews in general. On the basis of the DE it would be quite appropriate.
The local associations could organize not only real-life discussion and study events but also leisure and business activities. They could also act as financial institutions. In the local banks it would be possible, for example, to use micro credits as a means to support the local businesses or persons who are in need of some kind of help or deserve incentive.
In this project, it is possible to build a global network of local clubs, which provides a seedbed for many kinds of start-up businesses.
7. How Does the Project Make Money?
Unlike on many ideological internet sites, this project favors advertisement and all kind of collaboration with business.
Ad Revenues
The user loyalty provided by the ideological basis is of great benefit especially in getting ad revenues. At its simplest, this means: "If you're going to shop online anyway, do it through our site." Ads can be set up on the site with this in mind.
The DE should also have an affiliate network of its own. The Finnish Bonusway (https://www.bonusway.fi/) may serve as an example of this. On Bonusway, consumers are entitled to bonuses when they make purchases from the affiliate online stores while being logged in the Bonusway service. In the DE, the bonuses from online purchases woud be divided between the users and the project management (for example "DE Ltd."). It is essential that the users can choose who they want the bonus to target (all for the project or the major part for some personal debating encyclopedia, platform, or theme encyclopedia).
The DE is not going to sell user data.
Other Business Opportunities
In principle, all legal business made in the internet suits this project, especially the following ones:
- Philosophical cultural travelling: hotels and resort villages, which organize debate events according to the principles of the project besides their normal business.
- Chain of cultural cafes, pubs and restaurants on the basis of franchising.
- Publishing, especially textbooks for all levels of education – they would be debate anthologies on various topics compiled from the archive of the DE. (In this case the writers of the texts selected in the anthologies would also be entitled to compensation.)
- Traditional media (newspapers, magazines, free newspapers, websites, TV and radio stations, may they operate on global, national or local levels).
- Educational applications. E-learning.
- Combining various forms of physical exercise to debating events.
- Local services.
- Selling and bartering of goods and services, renting holiday residences, organizing rideshares, auctions, lotteries, etc.
- Crowdfunding.
8. The Users' Possibilities to Make Money
Persons who appropriately defend views they consider important or moderate discussions wisely can also earn well. This possibility is provided to average Joe or plain Jane, unaccustomed to writing, as well as to professional journalists.
Ad Revenues
The users should get the major part of the ad revenues of their pages in the DE. (See How Does the Project Make Money? / Ad Revenues.)
Paid likings, e.g. "roses"
By pressing "rose buttons" the readers can donate some amount of money (for example five cents, one euro or some larger sum) to a writer whose article they appreciate. There will be these kinds of buttons in connection with every statement of every user.
This feature could be put into practice with the help of some kind of an APE payment solution or by collecting points to one's own DE account.

really need some help!!!
well, it's like this. i believe i followed the guide on 'how to share your internet connection via bluetooth on palm os device'. i am using palm zire 72. after following the instructions, i clicked 'connect' and it did sign in. so, does it mean it has already a connection? as further instructed by the guide, i need to check it with the view log in the options menu. i did. i followed it, did a ping and a host name. and it did time out. so, i followed the instruction to add a script. but then, after adding the script, i didn't work anymore. it signs in and just results to a timeout. so, i removed the script again. after doing so, it did sign in again. but the problem is there is no internet connection that could be done. when i go to the webpro to visit some sites, it does not appear. it just displays a timeout error.
on the pc side, i don't really clearly understand the instructions. but what i did was i shared the internet connection. and also, im using bluesoleil as it was given along with my bluetooth dongle.
i really want to make the internet connection work.

Scavenger hunts and Capture the Flag, lanyards and s'mores, skits and softball. Is anything more fun than to be a kid at camp in August? Not much, according to a late summer survey of happy campers. So what if it's hotter than blazes? From the cool San Gabriel Mountains to the dusty San Fernando Valley to the gritty inner city, camp is gloriously in session.
'This Place Is So Much Fun, So Much Fun'
Nature class is taught by pigeons nesting in the eaves. The swimming pool is a leaky plastic tub, and campers must pick their way across a blanket of cigarette butts and broken glass to come and go.
But it's summer camp, no question. And from 8 in the morning to 6 at night, the red brick building at Hollenbeck Park in East Los Angeles fairly bursts with glee.

Welcome to my new blog
A Guide For The Best Weather Station
Have you ever checked the local weather report and been told it was sunny out when rain was pelting your window? There's a reason for that: weather updates depend on the location of the monitoring equipment, often at airports, where conditions can be quite different from where you are.
For people who want hyperlocal information — gardeners, golfers, sailors and just plain old weather geeks — there are personal weather stations, which have gotten technologically more sophisticated yet increasingly easy to set up and use.
David Kabal, a 41-year-old firefighter in Boulder, Colo., said he was always fascinated by the weather, so he put a personal weather station in his backyard in 2007. When his colleagues saw the specificity of the data he was posting online, they asked him to install weather stations at two distant firehouses to help them predict and fight wildfires. "When a fire breaks out, we check the closest station's weather," said Mr. Kabal, since wind direction and humidity are strong indicators of the course and intensity of a blaze.
Personal weather stations range from $150 to $2,500 depending on the quality and accuracy of the equipment. "It's like a lot of things: you get what you pay for," said George Bridgers, 39, an environmental scientist in Raleigh, N.C., who has a degree in meteorology. The home weather station he installed in his backyard cost about $500, which he said was what you should expect to pay "if you want something that will last and will have a minimal amount of failure."
Manufacturers of popular weather monitoring systems include Davis Instruments, Oregon Scientific, Peet Bros. and RainWise. If you want professional-grade equipment comparable to what is found at airports, check out more expensive rigs by Campbell Scientific, MetOne, Vaisala and Young.
Regardless of price, look for sturdy construction and materials; you want a unit that will survive foul as well as fair weather. Metal is the best option, but also the most costly. Basic systems measure temperature, barometric pressure, wind speed and direction, rainfall and humidity. Nice add-ons are sensors that detect ultraviolet intensity, soil moisture, soil temperature and lightning.
Read more at https://compactanalysis.com/.
Try not to get too wowed by some of the technology, though. While there are clever rain-gathering and wind-measuring devices that rely on disruption of sound waves to arrive at totals, traditional spinning wind cups, weather vanes and rain gauges tend to be less prone to false disturbances, like a really loud cricket.
Weather hobbyists favor solar-powered systems because you don't have to replace the batteries as often, and wireless units are handy so you won't have electrical cords running across your yard, which "rodents like to chew on," Mr. Kabal said.
Another nice feature is a receiver, or console, that will upload your weather data either directly to the Internet or to a home computer with a broadband connection.
This allows you to display the data on a personal Web site or maybe share it with weather networks like the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Citizen Weather Observer Program (C.W.O.P.) and Weather Underground's Personal Weather Station (P.W.S.) Network. More than 29,000 people contribute data to one or both of the networks, which use the information to improve the accuracy and specificity of weather reports issued to the general public.

OK, I know I have reviewed this before, but I am a total Wen fan. I order the gallons when QVC runs them once a year -- you get two shipments per year -- $177/gallon. I realize this seems very expensive, but as I told my husband, I cut my own hair and I don't color so look at all the money I save there! I do as Chas recommends -- one shampoo to cleanse and a second to be left on while completing your shower and to condition. I only trim my (beyond shoulder) hair about twice a year and I NEVER see a split end. I also only blow dry during the winter months as I can't stand a hot dryer at any other time. I have very fine hair that's not very thick and this leaves my hair absolutely beautiful!

This cleans the hair but it leaves it too full and unmanageable. I do not get glossy, swinging hair as in the infomercials. I left it on as directed and rinsed very thoroughly. I just used it last night and my hair is difficult to manage today. It just does not rinse out enough or leave the hair really clean. I hate the mint smell. It lingers after the hair is dry. I get far better results with any of my other shampoos or conditioners. My daughter loves it and has fabulous hair, but it doesn't work for me.

Got this as an Xmas gift. Took a little adjusting to get used to how much to use. The label says 10-16 pumps - using 10 made my hair seem oily and heavy. I adjusted use 4-5 pumps and only do it once applying to scalp and massaging in, then rinsing, I am very pleased and my hair which previously had the texture of straw andtended to look frizzy, feels soft and nice and the frizz factor is almost gone. Surprising to me, it did an excellent job of cleansing (surprising me since there is no lather at all - its sort of like working conditioner thru your hair) I believe the cucumber aloe is supposed to be a lighter product which since my hair is very thin and fine, may do better when I buy again. I dont need mail order purchasing where they ship every month, I will go to Sephora or thru Amazon to get this as I need it. The gift set came with some extra conditioner which is too heavy for my hair and I'll give to a friend. Overall, I think its a good product but does take some getting used to (no lather at all and figuring out what the minimum to use it so it doesnt weigh down your hair).

My hair recently became fried because of bad highlights, too many corrective treatments. It had become dry, dull and brittle even. The worst condition of my life. I have loads of hair products because I'm a product junky. I bought the Sweet Almond cleanser/conditioner and the leave-in conditioner. I wanted to hate it because of the cost and those awful infomercials. I followed directions, using less pumps because my hair is fine. Well, my hair is now shiny, soft and my color is brighter. I love the results. I haven't been able to duplicate the results with any other products. I'll use this up and keep trying others too. And, no Keratase product has helped either. Won't buy again because it's just too expensive. But the results are really nice. I think results with it probably have more to do with hair condition and texture. My scalp is dryer (age related, ya know) and I have a hunch that those with oilier scalps will not benefit from this product. IMNSHO.

I love, love, love this product! Wen Cleansing conditioner is definitely a different way to cleanse/condition and style my hair.
1) You must use the product correctly. a) Rinse hair for 2-3 minutes, b) pump 10-15 times into your hands c) work into your hair vigorously for a few minutes and spread out to all your hair with provided comb d) Rinse and do it again e) now leave the product in your hair while you continue bathing/showering f) rinse thoroughly AND while hair is still drenched, work into it another 1 to 2 pumps of product along with a dime/quarter size amount of styling creme.
If you are blowing out your hair, use 1 pump of leave in, if you are air drying use 2 pumps of leave in cleansing conditioner.
It sounds like alot but I can assure you it is done fast and simply. I am a perfect example, I have only been using the product for 2 weeks and I have Parkinson's!
I have color treated hair and it has never been as soft and shinning as it is with Wen.
The KEY is to use the proper amount of product, follow the directions and you will love it too!

I love this stuff. It's made a world of difference in my dry, coarse hair--making it soft, shiny and easy to manage.
It's expensive, but it's also the only product I use [no conditioners, leave-ins or styling products.] I have thick hair and use *much less* than the recommended amount. I use between 5-7 pumps for each "shampoo" and that more than enough.
Give it a try. With QVC, you have a 30-day guarantee.

Time is flying!
This past month has brought much joy and excitement to my position as Arts and Community Engagement Coordinator. The success of this position truly lies in the attitude that I bring to each task as well as the mindset I use to reflect.
Over and over I am amazed at how fast time is flying in this position. I no more than blink and we have finished another week. I truly cannot believe that I have been in this position for 6 months now. I stated early on that no two days had been the same. That is still true. As I reflect on the past month I am reminded of the value of this position.
In early November, after sitting in several MS Exploratory review meetings with other Program Coordinators, MS Principals and LEAD team, we began the process of developing Middle School Exploratory classes which will be driven by student choice. While a daunting task, it has proven to be a task in which I have grown as a professional in many ways. After learning about the benefits of Project Based Learning we set out to formulate new classes based on the PBL model/framework. Once tasked with writing the framework of the classes, we set out to look at redesign of the classsrooms and input from the educators on the frontline. After many discussions, the guiding questions and course descriptions were written. The conversations have been rich and fierce for the benefit of our kids. Our educators are excited to begin the process of learning about PBL and student choice. I was also fortunate enough to be able to develop and submit my first budget this year, based on the review of these middle school exploratory classes. I cannot wait to begin PBL training and continue course refinement with our educators.
Mid-November, I was able to head to Ames, Iowa to support our educators as they had several students involved in the annual All-State Festival. The opportunity to meet and connect with several educators inside and outside of Iowa was incredibly rewarding. Discussions revolved around "unwrapping our new national standards", authentic student assessment, assessment in the instrumental and vocal ensemble through authentic individual/group recording during rehearsal and embedding "common core" language in our curriculum process. The information gained will be very beneficial for me to bring back to the teams as we continue to unwrap and work on writing formative and summative assessments this year.
This past week, I facilitated two days of professional development. On Wednesday, our Middle School Art educators came together to work. We spent a couple of hours looking at and discussing the benefits of Project Based Learning and Teaching for Artistic Behavior- TAB. We watched a few video clips and discussed and read a few articles regarding TAB - Choice Art. We also worked together as a PLC to look at first quarter data and discuss the needs shown through that process. On Friday, I saw our elementary PE educators as a group for the first time. While they have been standards based assessing for a few years, we looked at first quarter data and decided something needed to be done. With that, our PE educators began unwrapping the 2013 SHAPE standards. Much discussion and reflection happened throughout the day. It was exciting to hear the educators share out their reflections at the end of the day. Many shared that we need to unwrap the standards and decided how we can more accurately reflect to our students and parents what we are truly doing in the classroom.
I have for many years looked at all of my work through the lens of "what is best for kids". The more discussions I have, the more people I meet, the more I am reminded that it is always our attitude that shapes our decisions. We must bring forth the attitude that our kids are #1 and keep them at the forefront of every discussion we have. It really is about the attitude you bring to life!

The father of an eight-year-old boy murdered during the Boston Marathon bombing told a court on Thursday how he had to leave his dying son's side to tend to the wounds of his grievously injured daughter.
Bill Richard's son Martin was the youngest of the three people killed during the April 2013 attack and his daughter Jane had her leg torn off by the second of the two explosions.
Mr Richard looked directly at Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the alleged bomber, as he confirmed that his son died at the finish line of the Boston Marathon nearly two years ago.
In a halting voice, Mr Richard described how "a beautiful day" with his wife and three young children was ripped apart by a pressure cooker bomb allegedly planted by Tsarnaev.
As his son Martin lay dying in the arms of his wife, Mr Richard decided he had no choice but to try to save the life of his seven-year-old daughter Jane.
"I saw a little boy who had his body severely damaged by an explosion and I just knew from what I saw that there was no chance," Mr Richard told the jurors.
"I knew in my head that I needed to act quickly or we might not only lose Martin but we might also lose Jane, too."
Tsarnaev, 21, who may face the death penalty if convicted, rarely looked up as Mr Richard gave his testimony on the second day of the trial in Boston.
Of all the families devastated by the bombings, the Richards lost the most.
Martin died at the scene and Jane survived only after surgeons amputated her left leg. Mr Richard suffered burns and shrapnel cuts while his wife Denise was left blind in one eye. Their oldest son, Henry, was the only one to leave Boylston Street without serious injury.
A photograph of gap-toothed Martin, holding a sign that read "No more hurting people. Peace", became one of the most enduring images of the tragedy at the marathon.
At a memorial a few days after the attack, President Barack Obama spoke of Martin's "big smile and bright eyes" and how his "last hours were as perfect as an eight-year-old boy could hope for".
Mr Richard told the court that going to the marathon had become "a ritual" for his active family and how the excited children had stopped for ice cream a few minutes before the blast.
"I can even remember of what each of them ordered," Mr Richard told Nadine Pellegrini, one of the prosecutors. "But unless you want to know I'll keep them to myself."
The prosecutor replied: "I'll let you keep your memories."
Mr Richard has serious loss of hearing from the blast but told the court: "I can still hear music. I can still hear the beautiful voices of my family."
Tsarnaev faces 30 terrorism charges. His elder brother Tamerlan, 26, the second suspect in the bombing, was killed in a shootout with police days later
The trial continues.

South Jersey Gas recently celebrated a company milestone, introducing the 100th compressed natural gas (CNG) fueled vehicle into its fleet. Jeffrey DuBois, president of South Jersey Gas, and members of the South Jersey Gas CNG team gathered for a photo at the company's Millville divisional office and public CNG fueling station. CNG, reliable and cost-effective, is the cleaner alternative to traditional gasoline.
South Jersey Gas is committed to expanding CNG fueling sites across southern New Jersey, with seven public fueling stations open now and plans to construct more this year. Furthermore, the utility has already converted more than 100 of its vehicles to CNG since 2011, and is committed to converting its entire fleet by 2020. Once the entire fleet is converted, the use of approximately 457,000 gallons of gasoline per year will be eliminated.

If you have a directory foo in the same directory as foo.exe, then you must type 'foo.exe' to run foo. If you type 'foo', it returns: $ foo sh: foo: command not found foo.exe is definitely in the $PATH. Not that it matters, because I get the same result when I am in the directory that contains foo/ and foo.exe. I am running bash 3.1.0(3)-release (i686-pc-msys) on Windows XP, but I am fairly sure that it has always been that way.

GENEVA - More than 10,000 migrants and refugees have died trying to reach Europe in the Mediterranean since the start of 2014, a spokesman for the office of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) said in Geneva Tuesday. "The 10,000 mark was passed in the last few days and is extremely worrying," the spokesman said.
Crossings from North Africa to Italy have increased recently after the closure of the Balkan Route through Greece.
About 1,000 more people have died in the Mediterranean this year than last, with three weeks in June still to run, the UNHCR and the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) also said Tuesday.
"From the start of the year more than 2,800 people have died against the 3,771 deaths all last year and the 1,838 recorded in the first half of 2015", said UNHCR spokesman Adrian Edwards.
The IOM, for its part, said the number of deaths this year were 2,809 against 1,838 from January to June last year.

Since I have a newborn, half of my day is spent with a little boy attached to me. Breastfeeding is what I do, thus it is what I write. I had such a hard time with breastfeeding my firstborn, but with a lot of great advice and hard work, my new baby and I are successfully breastfeeding! Here are a few tips that have really helped me out the past few weeks!
-This one is a little more difficult, but I try to pump after my son has finished eating. Of course this doesn't happen every time because, hello, I have a newborn to deal with. Pumping isn't the most convenient thing to do. But usually Ace falls asleep right after his first feeding and will allow me to lay him down. I also pump after my husband gets home while he watches the kids. Of course this helps with production because you are emptying the breast, which stimulates more milk to be made.
-I have been taking herbal supplements that have helped my milk production tremendously. 3 times a day I take 3 tablets each of Milk Thistle & Fenugreek. It is a lot of pills, but I just take them at meal times. Again, I can tell a difference in my supply when I don't take the supplements. The lactation consultant advised me to take these and I have had no adverse effects at all. But of course, talk to your doctor before you take them.
-Chill out. For real, chill out. I had such a hard time breastfeeding my first son because I was so freaked out about everything. I eventually gave up and bottle fed him after about 4 weeks. I've learned with Ace that most issues with breastfeeding can be worked out. Talk to a lactation consultant, your doctor or midwife, or just a woman who has been successful with breastfeeding. Ace was in the NICU and was primarily bottle/ tube fed for the first 5 days of his life. Of course, he was used to a bottle by the time we got him home. But thank goodness, we stuck with it and now he is a champ at breastfeeding. I try not to sweat the small stuff when it comes to feeding my baby. Ace still gets about 2-3 formula bottles or expressed milk bottles a day. A lot of the women who are very stringent about breastfeeding would say this is a huge no-no. As long as my baby is healthy and happy, I'm doing my job.
-Stop being so danged modest! With my first born, I would never try to feed him in front of others in effort to not show my boobs to the steady stream of visitors we had for the first few weeks of his life. With Ace, I've just had to make myself get over it. If my baby is hungry, I'm the one who can feed him. If people don't want to see the girls, they can go to another room. Of course I try to be as modest as I can be, but I won't let it get in the way of feeding my little man.
-Drink water, water, and more water. And eat. You can't expect to make food if you're not taking it in!
I hope these few tips help out with anyone who is venturing into the wonderful world of breastfeeding. It has NOT been easy. But it is so worth it! Check out other WFMW tips at www.wearethatfamily.com!


text: At the last fathers love banquet Rachael was siting at a table with a girl from the streets who is still prostituting. This was her first banquet. Also at the table were two of our ladies who have already left the streets and now work for our ministry. They were sharing at the table how sad they used to be when they were in prostitution and how they never had time or real friends but now that they are free they have a family and friends (our shores family) and more time. The one lady was even sharing how she used to go to bed at like 3am after working and wake up late and always felt bad for sleeping in but now she wakes up early in the morning to spend time with Jesus before she comes to work. The new girl was just listening to their stories and asking questions. Afterwards she said she never felt love like she did that night.

we spent christmas at home in california with my family, and the weather over the week was california appropriate: warm. it was such a good break to have. I mean, there's nothing quite like playing wii mario kart to all hours of the night, sleeping in, pajamas from dawn to dusk, silly games with nieces and nephews, and the familiar company of siblings to make me feel like it's the most wonderful time of the year.
and, I'm not kidding about the mario kart thing. that's a bonafide cummins christmas tradition.
("no" is the correct answer.)

Review for Love on the Ledge by Zoraida Cordova- 4 bee's knees
I enjoyed this! I liked that there was bits of humor through out the story, and the chemistry between Sky and Hayden. I'm all about weddings, so I loved that Sky was planning a wedding, and I think it added some fun situations to the story. I love Sky's feistiness, and her standing up for herself, but one thing that was just too odd for me was ( a bit of a spoiler coming up, so beware)...........that Sky got sick when she found out her ex was in town. I mean, come on! That's just nuts, and way too over the top, but I still really like Sky overall. Hayden was super great! I loved that he didn't play games, and he just said what he was feeling; I felt bad for him at times because Sky was kind of jerking him around. I also think Sky and Hayden's first meeting was ultra sweet, and Hayden was just adorable. I haven't read the first book, but I think I will because I liked Lucky and James. I see the next book is River's story, and I really didn't like her, so I don't know if I'll read that one. I just don't like girls like her, and I know she probably has some horrible things in her past, but I don't like reading about how she deals with those issues. I don't know, I may still read it, but I'll have to be in the right mood for it. All in all, this book was cute and fun, and had just the right amount of spice!

The coalition says its election policy costings are the most prudent of an opposition in Australian history.
Three economists and former public servants have been vetting the coalition's election costings for the past seven months.
The former head of the prime minister's department Peter Shergold, former Queensland auditor-general Len Scanlan and co-founder of Access Economics Geoff Carmody are being paid for their efforts.
Opposition Leader Tony Abbott told reporters in Perth on Saturday the coalition could not come up with a better panel of professionals to run their rulers over the policy costings.
"I think we can say without any fear of contradiction ... that no opposition in Australia's history has been as careful or as prudent with its costings as this opposition going into the election," he said.
But Treasurer Chris Bowen again accused his election rivals of using every trick in the book to hide budget cuts.
Three handpicked men "are no substitute for being transparent with the Australian people".
"This is a fig leaf," he said.
He accused the coalition of trying to dodge scrutiny by "creating a random process" to avoid complying with the Charter of Budget Honesty which former Treasurer Peter Costello established.
At the last election the coalition used an accountancy firm to conduct their costings, which were later found to be out by $11 billion.
A tribunal later ruled the two accountants involved had breached professional standards.
Shadow Treasurer Joe Hockey said the coalition's costings would be released in a timely manner.
"If we released all our policies on one day, I'm sure we wouldn't get the proper scrutiny and analysis from our good friends in the media," he told reporters in Sydney.
"I think we'll do what's in the best interest of the Australian people. We're not going to release policy costings before we announce the policies, that's just ridiculous."
Mr Bowen said the coalition's argument about timing of their costings release was "nonsense".
"The Liberal Party could do what the Labor government has done and release costings and funding as each policy is released," he told reporters in Sydney.
"(They) don't want to be upfront with the Australian people about what they will cut."
Mr Abbott said he would tackle Labor's waste.
"I don't run away from the fact that there will be significant savings," he said.
Prime Minister Kevin Rudd went on the attack as well, saying Mr Abbott has a new three-word slogan, "Cut, cut and cut again."

Leadership Coaching
What is Leadership?
Leadership is a continuously on-going process and it is, in essence, a behavior. It is the art of persuading people, getting them to follow your vision and strive forward to reach success. Can anyone be a born leader? Is it something that is inborn or can it be cultivated? Much like everything else, leadership behavior too can be cultivated with the right kind of training. Influencing people around in a positive manner. Influencing a sense of collective responsibility to work hard towards the set targets and goals.
What is leadership coaching?
Leadership coaching is all about helping a successful leader improve his/her strengths and identifying areas for improvement.
Sometimes a successful leader could come across as pushing his/her own agenda every time and his/her team may feel the brunt of the leader's constant thirst for success.
The team might feel eclipsed by the leader's vision and may feel unheard and in some cases, the leader may even be thought of as high-handed and arrogant rather than being perceived as assertive and approachable. Leadership coaching is aimed at helping leaders work on such problems and improve themselves constantly for just as anything in life, leadership too require continuous work and training as there is always scope for improvement!
How does leadership coaching work?
A leadership coach helps identify areas that need to be worked on and helps the leader overcome problems in a manner that the change is perceived by everyone around – teammates, peers, and stakeholders.
Perception is reality and with improvement, people will begin seeing noticeable changes and this will ultimately lead to more co-operation and a healthy environment where feedback is accepted in a positive manner and worked upon.
At the very beginning of leadership coaching, the coach begins by collecting information and setting goals and targets. At the end of the program, the improvement in each of the set parameters is measured and gauged.
Who should look at leadership coaching?
Whether you are a successful leader or an emerging one, leadership coaching is most certainly important!
A leader typically is perceived as larger than life. They often don't have an idea as to how others look up to them. As with all humans, leaders too come with varying capabilities and strengths.
While some may be great influencers, others could be great visionaries and accomplishers. However, none of these traits are mutually exclusive and one can work on strengths and reinforce them and identify weaknesses and work on converting them into strengths. This is where leadership coaching comes in!
Consider famous personalities and successful people in other areas such as sport, movies, and art – all the people successful and famous there have their coaches with them! They continuously work on themselves and stay in top form to be at the top of their game and that is the contributing factor for their achievements and glory. Leadership too requires training and fine tuning and working on your traits can catapult you to greater heights and gain you far more acceptance.
Where do we come in?
We offer leadership coaching services for successful leaders, emerging ones and offer executive coaching services to help leaders improve their skills and improve their success ratio. We've helped many an organization redefine its organizational culture and this has resulted in improved business performance. We employ time-tested methods and guarantee our results! Pay us for our services if you see improvement, otherwise, don't! We believe that this is assurance enough of our quality of service; call us right away and enlist our services to scale new heights in your business.

I wanted to share this with you guys, which I haven't yet since learning of this some three years ago. Most of the falsies or false eyelashes I buy from Divisoria looks very cheap and plastic-like. It's also very difficult to apply, and the glue that comes with it.. well, I haven't tried using it because I highly doubt the quality.
During a shoot, the MUA used this specific type of lashes (photo above), which I loved because it was very natural. Sp, I made it a point to ask him where he got it. He told me that he bought the pair from Landmark Makati at around 30pesos per pair. What a steal! I looked for it afterwards and found them there, priced at somewhere around 40pesos.
They come in a number of styles, some you can use for everyday makeup, and some which are thicker and has more volume, which you can use for fashion shoots and events. They're very natural, especially when photographed.
How would you know you got the right kind of lashes? The lashes are sold in single pairs, placed in a small white carton box with clear, transparent cover. Then, when you turn the box over, the name of the lash style is stamped on the bottom of the box. Like this:
Anyhoo, those tagged as SPICKY are usually the more voluminous lashes, while the natural ones are the thinner ones that are good for everyday use. They're reusable, too! As long as you take care of them, you can use them as many times as you like.
Feel free to stock up on these lashes from your nearest Landmark, because these lashes are worth every peso. And please stop using those artificial lashes from Divisoria. Those are not cool, especially with the unnatural way they bounce off the light. :) – HANA

text: After many trial and error I can replace my old amd raid oprom with a new version and also a larger size. Because of the resize thing I cannot use Phoenix Mod Tools. However when I use Phoenix Bios Editor I need to insert the misc.bin 2 times into a location oem module from the bios tree or the update doesn't work and it gives me Operating system not found or load to misc.bin error or it just stops booting. I suspect it is an error with counting and numbering because the first edge in the oem module starts with user00.rom and the second edge is number user01.rom and so on. However the original bios has only edge user01.rom in oem module and I cannot edit the name in phoenix editor. Is this a known problem? 0 is just a number. This trick works only with an older oprom and it still gives me a load to misc.bin error with newer oprom.

I got a call on 22nd september 2015 at 11:30 claiming that they represent Shine com, and would provide job offers in middle east countries. He guided me to profilebuilder.in website where there is profile sharing portal to get recommended to various jobs and have to pay registration fees of rs. 3418 including taxes, after payment i got the receipt in my mail -order no-9057.
After registration he asked me to pay 10222 for creating your e-profile and to get recommended immediately. But i refused to pay because i had doubt in my mind as they had not given any intimation about this e-profile at the beginning . Then i searched online about this kind of fraud and it seems that many other peoples are fooled like me in name of Job Offers. The contact numbers are below-7xxxxxxxx1 & 8xxxxxxxx4 and the persons name was Axxxt Sxxxxxa.
I asked for my refund but they said refund is not possible. They have cheated me and i want y money back Rs. 3418.
Please help me get my money back. Receipt mail is attached for your reference.

The time in my life where fears didn't cloud my mind doesn't exist, or at least I can't remember it.I had my first anxiety attack when I was 7. As a kid I thought I had every serious disease known to mankind. I developed new fears everyday. When I was 9 I convinced myself that I would choke to death on whatever food I ate. This led me to "pretend" to eat my meals and secretly only drink liquids. This went on for two weeks. From the age of 13-16 I had to make sure everything was and an even number, everything down to the tiles on the floor. If not bad things were sure to happen( just wanted to add that bad things never happened). When I was seventeen and I was really diagnosed with a disease (diabetes ) my fears sort of stopped. I figured I finally got sick and even with me being obsessed with being careful and having anxiety throughout the day I still got sick and all I could do is live with this new disease and control it.
Of course with the new disease more depression and anxiety came with it. I developed an exhausting habit of making sure the nutrional facts on food packages were always turned away from me. This drove me nuts and I honestly did not stop until I was 20. And I'm still recovering from the diagnosis especially with my stay in the icu, I am in the process of gaining control over my thoughts( and there's a lot of them).
Evolving scares me, or the lack of it does. The fear that I will always be stuck in the same place scares me. Lack of growth, lack of change. Which is ironic because change worries me a lot too. I want change in my life the kind of change everyone wants. I want to be a successful writer , I want to be financially free to just live, I want love, and the one thing that I have never questioned is that I want to be a mother. I've questioned love, having a great career, being an amazing writer, but I have never questioned being a mother.
With my birthday approaching next Tuesday I feel more sad than happy. Sad because as I look at my accomplishments, I wonder if I even really have any. I'm not where I thought I would be, and with my 23rd birthday being next week I feel worried that my life will never be what I dream of and work so hard for.
Fear is such an ugly thing, or at least it is for me. Fear of the physical and fear of the achievements we want.

1st place Tribe edges ChiefsJune 05, 2012 No comments
Indians first baseman Jeff Clement launched his seventh home run of the year and drove in three runs on Monday night as Indianapolis beat the Syracuse Chiefs 4-3 at Victory Field.
After Syracuse 2B Jarrett Hoffpauir tripled and scored on a sacrifice fly by LF Mark Teahen to put the Chiefs ahead 1-0 in the bottom of the first, Clement ripped a two-out, two-run home run to deep right-center-field to put the Indians ahead 2-1.
Chiefs CF Corey Brown tied the game at 2-2 with a solo home run to lead off the top of the third inning, but Starling Marte and Clement teamed up to put the Tribe ahead for good in the bottom of the fifth inning. With one out and SS Chase d'Arnaud on first base, Marte tripled to center field plating d'Arnaud to put the Indians ahead 3-2.
Up next, Clement hit a line drive to center field that was caught by Brown. Marte had broke for the plate before going back to third and tagging up, but his speed allowed him to slide into home safely and turn Clement's liner into a sac fly. It was Clement's third RBI of the game and 23rd of the season, putting Marte and Clement in a tie for the team lead.
The four runs were enough for Indianapolis starter Rudy Owens who recovered from a shaky start to earn his fourth win of the season.
Former Indianapolis LHP Zach Duke took the loss, just his third of the season.
The Chiefs did get back one inconsequential run in the eighth inning off of RHP Evan Meek when RF Brett Carroll singled to drive in Teahen, who had doubled earlier in the frame. RHP Tim Wood tossed a perfect ninth inning to earn his fifth save of the season and third in three games.
The Indians are now 34-23 on the season and hold a 7.5-game lead in the IL West Division. The Tribe hits the road for a quick four-game trip against the Pawtucket Red Sox beginning tonight at 7:05 p.m. Indianapolis expects to send LHP Justin Wilson (4-3, 3.59) while Pawtucket is expected to counter with major league veteran LHP Daisuke Matsuzaka (0-2, 3.33).

I have some users running Outlook 2013 with the Zarafa Connector on Windows 10. Now I'd like to disable Updates for Microsoft Office. But I don't like to login as admin and click the setting, I prefer using a registry key. But somehow I am completely unable to find anything about that.
Anyone knows the registry key to disable "Microsoft Updates" (just install Windows updates, but none of the other Microsoft products).
Thanks in advance

Today's inspiration is about obstacle's in yoga...but this can pertain to every aspect of life.
Our adoption journey is very much like an obstacle race! We had to jump many "hurdles" to get to this point and have many more in the coming months.
From the time you start this process you are on the paper chase....getting a home study done and approved....collecting all the items for the dossier that basically is you and your spouse's life in a nutshell...getting the police checks, medical checks etc. etc.
Then it is the obstacle of making sure the documents you have so carefully prepared get to your chosen agency and from there to Foreign Affairs and the Ethiopian Embassy. Canada Post can be a big obstacle as it has been proven when they lost a good friend's documents.
An even bigger obstacle is watching your precious cargo fly to Ethiopia via Fed Ex. Once you see that all your blood, sweat and tears have reached your child's country of birth, you are faced with the biggest obstacle of all....letting go of all control. You now feel as though you have no power. What you need now is pure faith, love and belief that your dream of having a family will come true. You leave your future in the hands of others...in the hands of God or the Universe depending on your beliefs.
I am starting to understand thru my adoption obstacle's that I am strong. Stronger than I ever imagined. I am starting to learn and exercise true patience in this process...something I have never had before.
I have never been good at letting people know when I am sad or upset...I have always been the one who listened. I have learned thru this adventure that it is o.k. to let others know I need their support. I can ask for help or advice and there will be someone to lend me a hand when I need it.
I think I can make it thru this obstacle course called adoption and I might even come out a wee bit stronger for it in the end!!
Tuesday's Inspiration - Day 15
"Remember, yoga practice is like an obstacle race: Many obstructions are purposely put in the way for us to pass through. They are there to make us understand and express our own capacities.
-Swami Satchidananda"

because it amuses me.
btw, I'm home, and it's very quiet (save the satellite radio) and peaceful and simple and lovely. The house of windows. I love it.
Where I saw swallows (cliff) actually RESTING on the beach! =) Passed it twice, same gang swooping and swinging through the air with some touch downs to chill on their dark, breezy, empty beach. Sweet. I'm glad they have a place.
The combination of colors and textures in this scene make me NUTS. LOVED it. Better in person, but not bad digitally. So not used to muddy delta waters. My oceanic past was on the Pacific, right there. This is very different, but similarly cool, breezy and soothing.
Oh, btw, do you know the what very well known town was named by our lovely toyon (pictured above, and owner of one of my VERY favorite scientific names, Heteromeles arbutifolia)? It's a WAY cool story, so lemmeno if you have or have not heard...
Unfortunately NOT sharp, but lovely to watch: snowy egret hunting, very still, stunning, and it's sides rolling with reflected wave glare. A lovely, arresting scene. (sigh)
I didn't get too close 'cause I didn't want it to have to fly off. My parents taught me better. =)
Slightly different shot than last time (very slightly). It's JUST the MOST photogenic grass EVER. Sheesh! GORgeous. Super-soft fuzzy, shimmering, and elegantly, lazily waving in the wind, all at once. (swoon)
Woah, bb makes an appearance! I just loved the water and cattails and SHADOWS. And, as mentioned, in person the cattails are swirling in the breeze, like woozy ladies from the 19th century with too-tight corsets: faltering, weaving, and recovering, en masse.
I love wildlife trails and the mysterious lives they allude to, but never reveal.
