And lastly
Dear blogger friends and family, This morning I stumbled on a new organization. It's called Speak Now! They are a brand new organization with intentions or giving young women the resources to "have faith in themselves, their beliefs, values, and aspirations."
A little from the organization:
"Each detail is crafted with young women in mind.
We at Speak Now have this dream-
to inspire, empower, create, educate, and love young women internationally.
We want to see young women have faith in themselves, their beliefs, values, and aspirations.
Each "like" our organization receives on facebook funds a dime to the storefront teen shelter in San Diego, California."
Happy Friday & TGIF!!

Peter Pan was used to 'fight' with his shadow that apparently had its own life. In California, instead, there is a place where shadows have weird shapes they shouldn't have…and passers-by get astonished and confused by this unusual phenomenon.
We are in Redwood City and this is what's happening in the city centre.
In the town located on the San Francisco Peninsula in Northern California's Bay Area, objects along the road are different than any others elsewhere: their shadow has a different shape and looks like living characters.
Is it magic? It's the "sidewalk art" of designer Damon Belanger who was asked, last year, to install 20 fake shadows in downtown and the project was completed in spring 2016. The aim? Bring more creativity to the city, and the result is amazing and funny at the same time. Just to mention some examples:
1. A Bench becomes a Cat.
2. Pillars become a Robot Band…
3…or Smiling Flowers.
4. A Parking Machine turns into a Monkey Sitting on a Column.
5… or a Crazy Train.
6. A Mail Box turns into a Monster with Sharp Teeth.
Other artworks can be seen on the artist Instagram profile.
This shadow art is a collaboration between the Redwood City Improvement Association, the Parks & Arts Foundation and ARTS RWC. If you are around, take the occasion to stop by and shoot some photos. Your witness – and point of view – are important.

Welcome to the SFUFF!
Urban planning is the convergence of politics and our physical environment. It effects everyone, all the time. Urban planning decisions impact where (or whether) you have a place to sleep at night, the ways you get around town, the food you eat, and the air you breathe. Good urban planning can improve your health and even save your life (think protected bike lanes).
Making cities better is a grueling process. Although we all want healthier, safer and more affordable cities, making them a reality is a complicated process that often alienates the folks who need support the most.
The SF Urban Film Fest makes urban planning fun, entertaining, and accessible. That's why I started the SF Urban Film Fest where urban planning is jargon free, entertaining, innovative, impactful, and fun. All events feature some form of storytelling which you will discover is the most efficient and engaging tool human beings have invented (sorry iPhone!). Our community includes filmmakers, urban planners, artists, architects, real estate developers, activists, tech professionals, college professors, students, government staffers and citizens like you.
At the SF Urban Film Fest, you can:
Discover how your city works.
Meet people who are making your city a better place to live.
Find ways you too can make your city great.
Learn to use storytelling to maximize engagement and impact.

It Could Have Been a Book on Mary
Mary Told Differently (Marie autrement)
– Introduction by Father Johann Roten, S.M.
For years Father François Rossier, S.M. had the intention to write a book about Mary. He wanted to write something new, something different. A book that would leave behind the well-trodden paths of classical mariology, and joyfully engage the "road not taken." He remained somewhat vague about what this new mariology should be. When asked, he would make the gesture of "tabula rasa" and add, "It needs to be concrete, concrete! I want a Mary who is real, no catechism mariology but neither some abstract figure. A biblical mariology? I don't want a mariology, I want Mary." He never wrote the book whose title was to be Marie autrement, a different Mary, or better, Mary told differently. But he made a beginning. He wrote what could be a chapter of a book, or an article. Surprise? The article, in French, deals with the Son of Man, not with Mary. He was convinced to have found in the biblical figure of the Son of Man a key to a different Mary. How? The article tries to explain.

Leon Griffith
Lest We Forget - Poem by Leon Griffith
From the moment of your anxiously awaited birth
Love and favors have been lavished on you.
To your mother and daddy you were the dearest thing on earth.
To brothers and sisters you were extra special too.
Life is so wonderful it is not our desire to forfeit one day.
YOU are YOU - because mother and daddy passed life your way.
You owe them lots of love they were always there for you.
Are your payments up to date or are you overdue?
Your life could have been rough - for all around you to see.
Had mother and daddy not met your needs and lovingly bounced you on their knee.
They met your needs because they loved you - their precious child.
Your smiles and laughs pleased them so -- your tears drove them wild.
It matters not how old we are or where on the road of life we might be.
If its happiness you are seeking - then love is the key.
Besides mother and daddy, and brothers and sisters, many others will bring love into your life.
I thank God for my precious children and a wonderful loving wife.
Go to a cemetery and notice all the beautiful flowers you see.
All trying to say, "I love you" to someone that used to be.
Let us show our love while the precious gift of life is ours.
Don't' wait too late and have to say it with beautiful flowers.

Law enforcement agencies should investigate Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and FBI agents for possessing mementos from the sites of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, a group of attorneys said Monday.
The National Whistleblower Center made the request because an inquiry found Rumsfeld has a piece of the airplane that flew into the Pentagon inside his office. The Justice Department's inspector general also discovered that 13 FBI agents had taken rubble, debris and items such as flags and a Tiffany crystal globe paperweight from Ground Zero at the World Trade Center.
That man ain't right.

The CEO of Podcast one together with the VP of Edison Research Strategy revealed the results and outcome of research that has been going on progressively for a couple of months now. These results show inclusive advertising studies on five national customer brands used for the tests. The five brands cut across the service and product industry. The research took place in the last six months of 2016 for both pre and post promotion brand.
The research revealed a couple of things key among them being that 60% of podcast listeners have a particular grocery brand in mind after the ads have been run. This is an increase from the previous 7 percent that was there before from the previous study. Responsiveness to independent products increased by certain percentages from pre-studies to post studies.
For financial product services, the increase went up to 47% while for 37 for car aftermarket goods and finally 24% for the garden and grass product. The post research revealed a positive view on the car markets by a third of the respondents with 22 percent of those interviewed expressing how they were almost convinced on the use of garden and lawn product, which is an increase from the previous 16% status. Particular cars received an improvement of 60% for each brand after the advertisement.
There are three main types of research carried out by Edison research for Podcast One for observation of efficiency of podcast marketing promotion for five national brands. The brands were mixed up with some launching new brands striving to increase their awareness to the public while others well-known brands. For both instances, the surveys were done before advertising on the podcast and after the podcasts were used for a period of 4 to 6 weeks promotions. Similar techniques were used for both known and new brands with the results indicating that podcasts listeners were a bit receptive to the idea of considering the brands after the messages. The conclusion was that podcast is a great way to create brand awareness.

hello hello!
I don't think I have yet played along with a challenge from Sparkle and Shine... and I don't know why it has taken me so long... who doesn't love sequins and sparkle?!
I was intrigued by their latest challenge, which is this inspiration photo, you can also see it HERE on the Sparkle and Shine challenge blog.
I was further inspired by the neutral background in the inspiration photo, and I mimicked that with the colors of the patterned papers that I chose for my card... the tans and creams and black.
All in all, this was an 'outside of the comfort zone' card for me, as I don't normally work with purples, and I have to say that I really like how this card turned out!
Thanks for stopping by to take a look.
Can't wait for the next challenge!!
Until then..

A blog button is a hyperlink thumbnail image that when clicked on will lead the reader to your blog, usually the homepage or to any desired destination. Providing a cool blog button is an interesting alternative way in promoting your blog by others rather than just an ordinary text link.
When you add your blog button or logo at the sidebar or footer with its HTML code in a scrolling text box beneath, then interested parties can easily copy and paste its code if so desire, to display the button at their own blogs or websites. Thus providing easy access to your blog which is another way of advertising for you and probably increase traffic to your blog when their readers click on the button.
Creating your blog's button with its code is quite simple really. You just need to create your button, apply some basic HTML to make it clickable and provide its code for copy and paste.
Steps on how to display a blog button with its code in a text box on your Blogger blog :
A. Create your blog's button picture :
- You can use Photoshop or other image editing software to create your small button picture which should include your blog's name. Size is flexible with recommended size as 125 x 125 px or up to 150 x 150 px to fit the sidebar which is normally below 200 px. Shape can be square, rectangular or whatever you fancy. Best to create it according to the size you wish for clarity. A little larger is okay but reducing the image from too large a size may have some distortion.
(Tip: If you wish to create a square button with rounded corners in Photoshop, ensure that you save it as PNG or GIF file format that support transparency, so that it appears exactly as desired, without the white angular corners around it, which becomes visible when displayed on non-white backgrounds if image was saved as JPEG file. Thanks to clues found at Adobe Forums and How-to Geek that I finally got it right after 2 days of googling and experimenting!)
- Save your picture to your computer. Your image can be saved as a file type other than JPEG, like PNG or GIF.
- Upload your picture online to any of your preferred photo hosting website, such as Flickr, Photobucket or Blogger.
- Get the URL of your uploaded button image which is needed for the code below. For example, if you've uploaded it in your blog post and published in Blogger, click on the published image which will then open a new webpage showing only your button. Copy the entire URL of the image that's in the address bar for the purpose below. Or, you can get the URL from the draft blog post which contained the uploaded button image in Edit HTML mode, which is seen within the  tag.
- Sign into your Blogger account. At Dashboard, click on Design which will bring you to Page Elements. Click the Add a Gadget button at the sidebar. Then, scroll down the list of gadgets and select the HTML/JavaScript which will bring forth its configure window.
- This is where you'd create the code for your button and text box. Type in something for its title. Then, copy exactly my button's code below which will be used as a basis, and paste it into the content box. It consists of two sections - the first part is for your blog's clickable button image, while the second is the textarea section to accommodate the button's code :

<textarea rows="4" cols="11" name="Button code-source" readonly="readonly"></textarea>

You'd observe that the pasted code in the gadget is not coloured. It does not matter. Using the coloured ones of my button code above as a guide, you just need to edit the html by replacing the relevant codes, with your own information to complete your code.
Replace the following coloured code :
- Red: the URL or web address of your blog that you want the button to link back to;
- Magenta: the text that you want displayed when the reader mouseover your button;
- Blue: the URL of your uploaded button image. (refer to step A. 4. above if you've uploaded your picture in Blogger to know how to find the image's URL).
Some explanation on the other HTML tags included in the above code :
.... : to center-align your button and text box at the sidebar. It is optional and if you prefer otherwise, just remove these tags.

....
 : inserts a paragraph so that a single-line space is created between the button and the text box.
<textarea>....</textarea> : to create a scrollable text box to contain the code of your blog's button. It has the following attributes:
(a) cols and rows: defines the size of the text box by width and height. You can change the value as you wish.
(b) name: represents the name for the text-area. Change as you wish.
(c) readonly: indicates that the text-area should be read-only and prevents the reader from changing whatever text in it.
Learn more about the <textarea> tag from W3Schools.
- Once you've formated your code, you can click on the Rich Text button at top-right of window to view the result as illustrated below and if not satisfied just toggle the same button to edit Html. When all's properly done with, simply click Save to exit.
- You'll be led back to Page Elements page where you can reposition the gadget to where you'd like it to be placed at the sidebar. Save changes and click View Blog.
- Finally, click on your button to ensure that it's linked to your blog's home page. Also, to test that it works fine, it's recommended to copy the code from the text box and try to add the button to your blog.
Whew....it's finished at last! Hope you're able to successfully make a blog button with text box containing its code for your blog following my tutorial which took me nearly a week of experimenting so as to provide you with the best method and result! I've played around using the Html scroll box initially, but the textarea tag is far superior in its simplicity and beauty, in my opinion! Exremely happy that I stumbled on this lovely tag recently and able to share about what I learned here!
Hehe...wanna grab my blog button at the sidebar? :-D
Keep learning~~keep smiling~~keep sharing!!

We have TPT available in Teradata Box however same is not installed in one of other unix servers that we use to load files.
My question is ,Do we need to purchase TPT license for installing it on unix server or do we just need to install drivers and stuff in the server .
Not sure why you installed TPT on your Teradata box. TPT needs to be installed on your load servers.
We have a shared infrastructure ,where we use multiple load server. Does that mean we have to pay extra for TPT in each server ( Note we already have BTEQ/FastLoad/mload/tpump available )
You will have to talk to whomever is in charge of your licenses and purchases.
I do not think our licenses are on a "per-server" or "per-cpu" type of use. I believe once you have a license, you can distribute to as many load servers as you want, but I am in engineering and you cannot quote me on that.

U.S. men's team needs to part ways with Jurgen Klinsmann
International Soccer
There is plenty of blame to go around for this disaster of a team that has struggled for the past couple of months. But no one person deserves more of the blame than Jurgen Klinsmann. Yes, the man that was supposed to "save" U.S. soccer has now run it's course … right off of a cliff.
And now it's time for Sunil Gulati, president of the U.S. Soccer Federation, to cut ties with Klinsmann and move on before this becomes even more of a disaster for the Americans.

This is a unique class because you don't have to bring anything except for your enthusiasm, good mood, and willingness to take home a painting. You don't have to have any experience with an oil medium. In a very relaxed atmosphere you'll be surrounded with painting materials, classical music, and with people who are interested and in love with art, determined, and passionate. Light refreshments and beverages will be served. Different tools will be used during the session and techniques will be discussed.
Sound too good to be true? Well, that's up to you to decide.
Class is scheduled for June 15th from 10am – 3pm.
Tuition: $200

1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 stick (1/2c) softened butter
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
*1/4 teaspoon salt*
1 egg
3/4 teaspoons vanilla
3/4 cup shredded zucchini
*1 teaspoon lemon zest*
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
2 cups all-purpose flour
Preheat the oven to 350F.
Cream the butter and sugars in your mixer until combined.
Add the baking soda and salt and beat until well incorporated.
Gently beat the egg with the vanilla then add it to the mixer.
Grate your zucchini's and lemon peel and add to the mixer.
Add the flour one cup at a time incorporating between additions (keep the mixer on low or you'll make a bit of a mess...)
Lastly, stir in the walnuts.
Scoop heaping tablespoons onto your sprayed/parchment covered baking sheet-- I used a mini ice cream scoop I bought for just that reason.
Bake cookies for 12-15 minutes until lightly browned. Remove them from the oven and cool on a wire rack.
These cookies are very buttery and taste like bite size portions of zucchini muffins. My original recipe makes an obscene amount (I didn't realize it until after the fact) so I cut the recipe in half for you-this will make about 4 dozen cookies depending on your scoop size. The '*' surrounding some of the ingredients are my additions after I tested out the recipe. I didn't have a lemon, I used lemon juice instead but I think they would benefit from the tangy zest of a lemon to cut the sweetness. The recipe also didn't call for salt but after I tasted a cookie, it needs just a little bit. The cookies are SUPER easy to make and only use one bowl. The quick cook time also makes them ideal for whipping up at a moments notice- maybe the moment you notice that zucchini you bought last week is getting a little over-ripe :)
Bon appetit!

Why do I write? I have always craved a creative outlet and came to the realisation many years ago that I can't paint, draw, sculpt or any of the other creative pursuits that I always associated with artists. It is not a negative thing, it is what it is. I have enthusiastically started and abandoned countless projects over the years such as hook rugs, cross stitch, embroidery, decoupage, knitting, cottage crafts, beading, jewellery making, and the list goes on – and on. My family used to laugh at me when I began my latest pursuit, and teased me about how long this one would last. For the most part they were right. Every now and then I would finish something, but mostly I didn't.
I began writing for the first time here with my random musings when I was living in Ghana from 2010 until 2011. My initial plan was to write a blog of our adventures and I had grand ideas of regular posts and updates. I did start and I did write some good stuff but I was very irregular and haphazard at it. When I came home I was having trouble settling back into Western life and I began a blog at the advice of a friend as a way of "sorting the shit". The content from that blog has since been relocated to this page. I was still irregular and haphazard, but that was fine as I had a whole lot of shit going on and the blog has been moved because I did manage to sort it, and began doing my own thing a while back, and I write over there about topics relevant to my business.
I write here on this blog about anything and everything from addiction to Africa and I have previously explained why I started this blog. It is my place to be free to express myself in any way shape or form about anything.
So…why do I write?
These are questions I am asking myself as the desire to create becomes stronger and of late has become a not negotiable for my spirit.
I write because I fucking love it. I write because it is the best way I have found to express myself. I write because I feel free. I write because I can. I write for me. I write because it is my art. I write because I can share my deepest and sometimes darkest thoughts, and I write because sometimes people write to me and thank me for also touching them deeply and going places where they fear to tread. I write for the joy, the agony and the ecstasy. I write for my heart. I write for my soul. I write for my family. I write for my sanity. I write because I believe I am here to write.
I am because I write.
When I hurt my back a few weeks back, I was prolific and the more I wrote, the more I wrote, and the more I wrote. One day I wrote three pieces and I loved it. Since I recovered I have been very busy and I also had to face some dark and scary shit in my life, where I found myself paralysed by anxiety and I was too scared to come to the page and write. Terrified, I succumbed to overwhelm and ran and hid. In fact I should have done the exact opposite. Thank goodness the shit has moved and the fog has lifted and things are better, and once again I find my soul yearning to express itself and I am so happy to be back here pursuing my art.
I am finally accepting that yes I am an artist. I am going to claim and proclaim it and revel in the joy of it.
I am a writer.
I am an artist.
I write because I am.

Clinical Presentations, Laboratory Results and Outcomes of Patients with Kikuchi's Disease: Emphasis on the Association Between Recurrent Kikuchi's Disease and Autoimmune Diseases
Chien-Yu Cheng, Wang-Huei Sheng, Yi-Chun Lo, Chen-Shuan Chung, Yee-Chun Chen, Shan-Chwen Chang
Received: February 25, 2009 Revised: June 30, 2009 Accepted: August 20, 2009
Corresponding author:
Shan-Chwen Chang, Division of Infectious Diseases, Department of Internal Medicine, National Taiwan
University Hospital, 7 Chung Shan South Road, Taipei, Taiwan.
E-mail: email@example.com
Background and purpose:
Kikuchi's disease (KD), also known as histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis, is a benign and self-limiting disease of unknown etiology that mainly affects young women. There is limited data on the long-term prognosis of patients with KD.
We describe the clinical manifestations and outcomes of 195 patients, diagnosed as having KD at National Taiwan University Hospital from March 1989 to September 2006.
All together, 53.3% of our patients presented with tender lymphadenopathy, 37.9% with fever and 16.9% with headache. The most common laboratory findings were elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (78.9%), elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase (52.5%), elevated C-reactive protein (38.3%), monocytosis (26.9%), elevated serum alanine aminotransferase (23.3%) and leukopenia (18.9%). A total of 183 patients followed a benign course, with spontaneous resolution of fever and lymphadenopathy. However, 14 patients (14.6%) with follow-up of more than 6 months had clinical recurrence of KD; hence, long-term follow-up is suggested. Five of these patients developed an autoimmune disease, namely, systemic lupus erythematosus (n = 2), Graves' disease (n = 2), or mixed connective tissue disease (n = 1). One patient with recurrent KD died of intracranial hemorrhage due to thrombocytopenia.
The prognosis for KD patients is generally optimistic; however, a concurrent autoimmune
disease or the risk of developing an autoimmune disease requires careful monitoring.
Key words:
autoimmune disease, histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis, Kikuchi's diseas

Whenever people ask me for advice about saving money I always feel like I'm scrambling for words. I think it's because there isn't really a silver bullet for longterm savings. The key to saving money, even if you don't make very much, is finding lots of little ways to chisel down your budget. The best assets you will ever have are money and time; money that you can save and invest and time for it to grow (hellooooo compound interest)!
In addition to maintaining a $200 a month grocery budget (for two adults in NYC) I've found lots of little ways to lower our cost of living. By doing a lot of research and price comparisons I've found super cheap alternatives to a lot of things and now I'm going to share them 7 of them with you!
Ok, here we go. This part might not seem glamorous but you should see my spreadsheets:
I buy my razors for 19% less than most people. Forget those subscription shave sites, and whatever you do don't buy blades at the store! At my local pharmacies (Rite Aid, Duane Reade) your standard razor cartridge refill pack is about $16.86 for 4 blades (that's $4.21 a razor). I buy all of my razors from Dorco instead. Dorco actually manufactures razors so essentially the same razor refill costs $19.12 for 24 blades (About 80 cents a razor). It's way cheaper than the store, even with coupons, and it's also cheaper than dollar shave club or any of those other subscriptions. They have men's razors too!
I only spend $16 a year on household soap. In an effort to save money lots of people purchase soap dispensers for the bathroom and the kitchen and then buy hand soap refills, but not this girl. I toss a couple of tablespoons of castile soap into my foaming soap pumps and then top them off with water. Believe it or not the pump turns the soapy liquid into this awesomely foamy soap. My favorite scent is rose! Oh, and you can also use it for washing dishes (if you hand wash) so you don't ever need to buy dish soap again either!
Cloth napkins and the best kitchen towels ever. I love my cloth napkins! I think I paid about $7 for 16 red gingham napkins, and that was 3 years ago so I'd say they've already paid for themselves. I never buy paper napkins, paper cups, or paper plates because to me it's just throwing away money. We occasionally use paper towels for really dirty jobs that a cloth can't handle, but we only use a few rolls a year and for everything else we use these towels. They're commercial grade kitchen towels and you can buy a set of 12 for $15. They're durable and they'll break you of your paper towel habit once and for all.
Discover your very own home cafe! I've talked before about how much money you can save if you pack your lunch instead of buying it out (plus isn't it great to have a little taste of home with you at work?) but you can also save serious money by going DIY on your morning coffee fix. Coffee drinks are expensive, and those fancy drinks that are more cream, syrup, and flavoring than coffee are also crazy high calorie. The fella takes his coffee to work every day and it saves us over $75 a month. These days even the cheap coffee machines like ours have timers so just set it the night before and you can wake up to the beautiful aroma of freshly brewed coffee like we do! By the way, if you're looking for a decent inexpensive coffee try Cafe Bustelo!
Get as many manicures and pedicures as you want (at home)! In New York City most ladies seem to get manicures and pedicures on the regular. My theory is that everyone is just attempting to obscure the layer of grime all us city dwellers perpetually have wedged under our fingernails. I love playing with nail colors, but the truth is unless you're fabulously wealthy you really don't need to pay another human being to perform basic grooming tasks. It really isn't that hard to give yourself a professional looking manicure, and I promise that with a little practice you'll get surprisingly good. If I got a mani/pedi once a week it would cost about $25 each visit($20 for service/$5 for tip). That's $100 a month and $6,000 in just 5 years!!!
Recharge, baby! I can't imagine a more boring way to spend money than by going to the store to buy batteries. About a year ago the fella suggested we buy rechargeable batteries at Costco and I absolutely love them! In addition to saving money on a product that's typically disposable (my sweet spot) I think rechargeable batteries are way cuter than the old black and copper guys. Win-win.
I skip the dryer. We live in New York and we aren't fabulously wealthy so we do our laundry at a laundromat. Ok, that's a lie. The fella does our laundry at a laundromat. I haven't set food in a laundromat in probably 7 years. Anyway, despite the fact that we live in a small apartment we line dry the majority of our clothes. I think our setup is pretty clever, we have hooks on one wall and then just run lines of rope from there to the doorknob across the room so it can all be put up and taken down in seconds. Skipping the dryer only saves us a few bucks a week, but line drying seriously increases the lifespan of your clothing, and that's significant.
If you want more tips on money saving check out my post on buying in bulk, slashing your grocery budget, and making DIY skincare products.

Ethereum was initially described in a white paper by Vitalik Buterin, a programmer involved with Bitcoin, in late 2013 with a goal of building decentralized applications. Buterin had argued that Bitcoin needed a scripting language for application development. Failing to gain agreement, he proposed development of a new platform with a more general scripting language.
Development was funded by an online public crowdsale during July–August 2014, with the participants buying the Ethereum value token (ether) with another digital currency, bitcoin.
The value token of the Ethereum blockchain is called ether. It is listed under the code ETH and traded on cryptocurrency exchanges. It is also used to pay for transaction fees and computational services on the Ethereum network.
Smart contracts
Smart contracts are deterministic exchange mechanisms controlled by digital means that can carry out the direct transaction of value between untrusted agents. They can be used to facilitate, verify, and enforce the negotiation or performance of economically-laden procedural instructions and potentially circumvent censorship, collusion, and counter-party risk. In Ethereum, smart contracts are treated as autonomous scripts or stateful decentralized applications that are stored in the Ethereum blockchain for later execution by the EVM. Instructions embedded in Ethereum contracts are paid for in ether (or more technically "gas") and can be implemented in a variety of Turing complete scripting languages.

PLUS… Hot 5's Hot Tip | Solving Local Problems at the Local Level
PLUS… Key Dates This Week
1. ACCA Executive Director Addresses ATRIP-2 with House Democrats
Last week ACCA Executive Director Sonny Brasfield joined Democrats from the House of Representatives in a discussion of the details of the ATRIP 2 legislation. The meeting was part of the annual retreat of the House Democratic Caucus and continued a productive dialog that will be important in the Association's effort to enhance the condition of county roads and bridges.
Questions focused on the distribution formula to be used for any new revenue, the accountability measures included in the ATRIP 2 legislation, and ways to gain even more voter support for infrastructure improvements in Alabama. The event is another element in the Association's continuing efforts to raise public awareness of the need to invest in road and bridge improvements at the county level. The Association continues to encourage county officials to seek out public opportunities to discuss this important issue.
2. Motor Grader Training Begins This Week
Tomorrow kicks off the first of three weeks of Motor Grader Training this summer organized by the Association of County Engineers of Alabama. These courses, happening simultaneously tomorrow through Thursday, will be taught in Butler, Chambers, and Pike Counties. The next round will be June 20-22 in Elmore and Perry counties followed by a third round June 27-29 in Chilton, Lee, and Monroe Counties. You can read more about these first-of-their-kind courses in this month's issue of County Commission Magazine. The ACEA is planning additional training for motor grader operators in the fall.
3. NACo Accepting Policy Resolutions
In preparation for the National Association of Counties (NACo) Annual Conference, NACo members are invited to submit 2017-2018 policy resolutions and platform changes to be considered at the conference. This process provides local officials with the opportunity to speak with one voice and implement change on the national level. Click here for more information.
4. Safety Deadlines Extended
County members participating in the ACCA Liability Fund that want to be considered for a Safety Award must complete a form stating what you have been doing over the past 12 months to improve safety and reduce losses in your county. We have extended the deadline, so please complete and email your form to email@example.com no later than Tuesday, June 20. Safety Awards will be presented during the Insurance Funds' Membership meeting on Tuesday, August 22, held in conjunction with the ACCA Annual Convention.
Also, it is extremely important that county members in both the ACCA Liability and Workers' Comp Funds send in their current County-wide Safety Committee List to email@example.com by Tuesday, June 20. Having outdated information could impact your county's qualification of the SIDP and any Safety Dividends and Safety Awards.
5. June Webinar Update
Since county government never sleeps and change is constant, ACCA webinars help county officials and staff leaders stay on top of the latest developments. If you are an administrator, revenue officer or member of PLAN 2018, you won't want to miss these interactive webinars this month.
Association of County Administrators of Alabama (ACAA)

Solving Local Problems at the Local Level
Whether the problem is junk or litter or dangerous animals, counties can turn to the Limited Self-Governance Act to gain problem-solving authority – without needing local legislation. Look for County Commission Magazine in your mail this week, since the June issue takes a closer look at how counties are using this law to abate nuisances. But if you don't want to wait, take a look at www.selfgov.net. The website is devoted entirely to local decision-making with Limited Self-Governance

Sometimes in high school when you are innocent and hardly aware of the rules and regulations, this can happen. But you should always remember the fact that it is a bit different when you have to search a job.
People with felonies will still be able to get jobs but there are some companies which have some parameters for felons. Some completely prohibit the hiring of felon and some may filter them according to intensity and frequency of the crime. But there is always a ray of hope for the felons. There are some trucking companies where you can apply for the jobs even after facing the felony charges.
Great profile of company
Swift Transportation Company is a well-recognized company of Arizona. More than 16000 thousand trucks are there and the company is managing them well. The company is providing remarkable transport services at present. The working mechanism of the company is very nice with the values of working with great safety and speed. The services are remarkable to delight the customers.
Training program
Swift transportation is also a company which is running truck driver training program. Certainly, you can gain the required skills and good starting by enrolling yourself in this program. For the driving jobs, you must also have a valid license to drive the truck. In addition to this, the training certificate is going to help you in your job interview. There is no doubt that trucking companies are liberal towards the felons and offer jobs after some regular checking. There are some companies which hardly go for the cross-checking of the documents and do not ask for the details of the felony charges.
Job with felony charges on your resume
In case you are looking forward to applying to this company with the felony charges. You must check the policies of the company appropriately. As per our information and research, there are some chances of getting a job in this company with the felony record. Many people with felony charges are selected in this company. But there is a common parameter on which they will check about your background.
They must be at least ten years older or more. So in case, you had committed a crime long ago than you can apply and work for this company. Well in some situations, it is quite possible that company may change the parameters based on the geographical situation and job profile.
In case, Swift doesn't hire you, you can find some trucking companies that hire and train felons with less or no experience on this list.

Another catch up piece. The Promise actually came out in November and most of you probably know all about it by now. However, despite that and the fact that it's by a world recognised artist, I thought it was worth a mention, due to the sheer quality of the material.
What you have is a double CD of 21 songs recorded around the time of Darkness On The Edge Of Town, but which didn't make the cut. Some have surfaced in different forms since, but some have been left buried for years. To think that while recording the follow up to the crossover album Born To Run, the record company allowed him to record forty songs, of which only ten made the final album and that there would be three years between the two albums is unthinkable nowadays, but the correct decision in hindsight. Presumably virtually no artists starting out nowadays will have the longevity that Springsteen has enjoyed. For now, simply take pleasure in the fact that Bruce has now seen fit to dust these songs down and give them the airing they deserve. That they were never intended as a complete album, makes the way they gel an even greater surprise and delight.
The Promise is out now on Columbia

Experience that rapture of understanding tinged with poignancy of how it was achieved - Review by Shane McCauley
When much of the news coming out of Africa in recent years is distressing or even horrific (think Darfur), Tineke Van der Eecken's revised edition of Cafe D'Afrique is a welcome corrective indeed. Although by no means completely anodyne - quite the opposite, as the author does not shy away from the sadder and more unfortunate aspects of human experience - the overwhelming tone of this memoir is joyful, celebratory, a gratitude and homage paid to a resilient, long-suffering and little known people - at least to us here in comfortable Australia.
The reader travels with unembarrassed intimacy with the author through African landscapes, principally in Zambia, as well as sharing psychological landscapes, mindscapes, new ways of seeing and being, as the young Belgian woman learns to adapt to new foods, mores, attitudes, music. This last is among the important ingredients of the eponymous cafe established by the author, and she adds a superb dimension to her narrative by including a CD of music performed by some of her African friends on its premises. It is vibrant and delightful.
Tineke Van der Eecken is above all a subtle and uncluttered observer of the, or this, African way of life. Her text is sprinkled with entertaining portraits, anecdotes, dialogue, insights, and even sub-plots more usually found in novels. As the book's subtitle indicates, this is about personal discovery, and we are privileged to share some of it with her.
Human beings, including the author, are presented with candour, warmth and an unjudgemental presentation of their less noble traits, the foibles and flaws that contribute to our concept of humanity (to err is indeed human). Among the book's many achievements is the clarity with which the author portrays the essential commonality of human nature, the shared core elements once the cultural and social accretions are put to one side. We are all, she implies by the end of her momentous journeying, equally vulnerable. Let us appreciate our lives and cause as little harm to the lives of others as we can.
Human needs are relatively straightforward - food, shelter, safety, the attempt to pursue happiness. Tineke Van der Eecken, and her readers, find this happiness in the seemingly simpler things in life - sense of community, friendship, music and communication. And out of these things is forged a feeling of inestimable value, for it is a form of love.
Tineke Van der Eecken opens our eyes to another land and another culture. She writes with great lucidity and compassion, and her narrative is suffused with a sense of wonder. She shares the Roman Terence's assertion that nothing human was alien to him. I hope that many, many readers will share Tineke's discoveries, and experience that rapture of understanding that always comes tinged with the poignancy of how it was achieved.

The Social Experience......Helping the Unsigned Artist Get Heard!!!
Chicago and Poze Productions, thank you so much for the hospitality that you gave me this week. I had such a wonderful time and I met some amazing people. To our beautiful hostess, Harmony, you queen was just simply amazing. Your smile lit up a room and your heart enlightens everyone that attended. The performances were amazing and I had such a wonderful time. I can't wait to attend the next show and tour. I can only see it getting bigger and bigger. To my fellow artists that attended and perform, let's do it bigger, next year. For those artists who didn't attend, you miss a treat and you need to make sure you make the next one. See you next year fellow Poze artists!!!

If you aren't going to see That's So Gay at Bats, then you're really missing some great theatre. The production is based on real life stories from the kids at School's Out, which is Gay Wellington's queer support group for teens based in Wellington, Kapiti and The Hutt. A group of 18 of us from Gay Wellington went on Friday 27th April. The passion of the actors and the creative way of telling stories and getting points across were brilliant. No wonder it is a sell-out - it could have fun for 3 weeks rather than 3 days!
That's So Gay is a culmination of true queer stories that reflect the lives of Wellington youth today gathered, devised and performed by them. It is a truly collaborative community theatre production that will no doubt be inspiring, touching, and at times humorous—an absolute must see theatre piece at BATS Theatre this April.
Directed by Toni Regan
Co-Produced by Anny da Silva Freitas and Toni Regan
6:30pm at BATS on:
Thursday 26th April
Friday 27th April
Saturday 28th April
Ticket Prices:
$18.00 (Full Price)
$13.00 (Concession)
$14.00 (Groups 6+)
$5.00 (Schools Out/Te whaea Students)
Tickets can be purchased at BATS box office or online at http://bats.co.nz/shows/thats-so-gay/

18th Sunday
We see people who are tired and hungry, but most of all we see people that follow Jesus. The main thing for them is to be with Him and to listen to Him. It should also be noted that they are people from the city. We can say that they are more civilized. For awhile they left everything to follow Jesus, and in these circumstances it is a miracle. Approximately five thousand men, not counting the women are fed. I think this is not the most import_ant thing, but that they are witnessing a miracle. They have satisfied everyone's hunger. But the best thing is that they are far from home, in the desert, and without Jesus they would die.
Of course, man can have everything while living comfortably in the city .Man can be happy and filled materially, but can never achieve things that are most import_ant in life. Without Jesus one cannot fill up their spirit. This is what Jesus wanted to show us today, that without the help of God, nothing can become great wealth. In our lives, even though it may appear that we have a lot, we really have nothing that belongs to us. Therefore, it is better to ask God to multiply what is really ours----our goodness and our love.
Just as the bread of the Eucharist is owned by Christ, continually being divided as spiritual food, we can also share what we own ---goodness and love, because nothing else is ours. The Eucharistic bread does not just give us a strong physical strength but a strong spiritual strength. We need to understand that thanks to the Eucharist, we can exceed anything that money cannot buy.
The people of today's gospel discovered the truth is not in the hustle and bustle of life, when they are busy, --but in a quiet and empty countryside. They understood the need for Jesus. Do we not still need Him today when we are so far away from everything that surrounds us, to understand the same thing?
