Whitney Houston 2011 Photos : After years of controversy and turmoil, Houston separated from Bobby Brown in September 2006, filing for divorce the next month. On February 1, 2007, Houston asked the court to fast track their divorce. The divorce was finalized on April 24, 2007, with Houston granted custody of the couple's daughter. Less than a month later, Brown sued Houston in Orange County, California court in an attempt to change the terms of their custody agreement. Brown also sought child and spousal support from Houston. In the lawsuit, Brown claimed that financial and emotional problems prevented him from properly responding to Houston's divorce petition.
Brown lost at his court hearing as the judge dismissed his appeal to overrule the custody terms, leaving Houston with full custody and Brown with no spousal support. In March 2007, Clive Davis of Arista Records announced that Houston would begin recording a new album. In October 2007, Arista released another compilation The Ultimate Collection outside the United StatesHouston released her new album, I Look to You, on August 2009. The album's first two singles are "I Look to You" and "Million Dollar Bill". The album entered the Billboard 200 at #1, with Houston's best opening-week sales of 305,000 copies, marking Houston's first number one album since The Bodyguard , and Houston's first studio album to reach number one since 1987's Whitney. Houston gave her first interview in seven years, appearing on Oprah Winfrey's season premiere on September 2009.
The interview was billed as "the most anticipated music interview of the decade". The interview was so candid that Whitney admitted using drugs with former husband Bobby Brown describing to Oprah that she "laced marijuana with rock cocaine". Houston has also appeared on European television programs to promote the album. She performed the song "I Look to You" on the German television show Wetten Dass. Three days later, she performed the worldwide first single from I Look To You, Million Dollar Bill, on the French television show Le Grand Journal.
Houston appeared as guest mentor on The X Factor in the United Kingdom. She performed "Million Dollar Bill" on the following day's results show, completing the song even as a strap in the back of her dress popped open two minutes into the performance. She later commented that she "sang out of clothes".

DENR seeks to widen impact of miners' social dev't funds
Posted on December 28, 2016
THE Environment department is drawing up new guidelines for the utilization of mining firms' social development and management program funds (SDMP) to benefit more people beyond miners' host communities.
Secretary Regina Paz L. Lopez said that the department will release the guidelines as early as year's end after mining companies have agreed to her proposal "in principle."
"Today, it was agreed that we use the SDMP funds in an area development format... We want to help the mining companies that passed the audit to use the SDMP funds in a more impactful way," she said in an interview with BusinessWorld earlier this month.
The SDMP is funded with the equivalent of 1.5% of miners operating costs. The mineral contractor commits to the sustained improvement in the living standards of the host and neighboring communities.
Social development impact was one of the criteria used in assessing miners' operations during the nationwide metal mines audit the government started in July.
The review, now in its final phase with results targeted for release next month after numerous delays, intended to weed out from the industry mining companies that employ substandard environmental practices. It has left 20 mining firms facing possible suspension.
This brings to more than three-quarters of the country's 41 metal mines either facing suspension or under threat of such an order. The government also suspended 10 mines prior to the audit.
Some metal miners were left unsanctined despite alleged infractions, which were deemed not severe enough to merit suspension.
Companies that were not recommended for suspension were Rio Tuba Nickel Mining Corp., Philex Mining Corp., Philsaga Mining Corp., Techiron Resources, Inc., Cagdianao Mining Corp., Taganito Mining Corp., Platinum Group Metals Corp., Greenstone Resources Corp., Pacific Nickel Philippines, Inc., Apex Mining Co. Inc., Atlas Consolidated Mining and Development Corp. -- Janina C. Lim

Haven't touched WH40k since a short painting binge over the summer and selling off my terrain. Unfortunately, it will still be some time before I get into it again. The trouble with the game is, its so damn expensive! I also find it hard to make time for it these days with being a full time student, having a social life and being in a foriegn country.... There's only two people I know that speak english that I can play against, and well, I don't care too much for playing with them normally... Maybe after I get german down a bit better I'll make it out to my local GW and throw some dice.
In the mean time, I've gotten back into Halo again. Doing my old forging routine. You can follow my map creation (and drama) over at schnitzelmaps.blogspot.com as well as forgehub.com.

I'm afraid to approach people who "drank the cool-aid" (I feel bad describing it that way, but even after reading this, I have to feel that they were duped), so my hat is off to you. I think whatever their reasons, they chose someone truly dangerous over someone they just didn't like. And that is REALLY hard to get past for me. I'm falling onto "don't ask, don't tell" as a way to keep friendships that I fear I wouldn't be able to otherwise. Thank you for trying to dig deeper and understand them a little better. Eventually I think we'll all have to come to that place in order to keep the precarious peace we have now. email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-2863426894897544671.post-36145399948904492202017-01-31T02:32:08.985-08:002017-01-31T02:32:08.985-08:00My point is that a certain amount of skepticism is...My point is that a certain amount of skepticism is a good thing when evaluating political information, from any source.

All were against Trump and his policies and cabinet picks. We marched loudly but peacefully. I have tried to understand how anyone could vote for him. It seems it did not matter what he said. I have tried to put myself in their shoes but it is hard. I had a hard time finding work in the past. I have been laid off and fired. I still cannot relate to the average male white voter that voted for Trump. I cannot understand how a woman, especially with a daughter could vote for Trump. I am polite but I truly see no reason for it.

I was embarrassed that I was in my early 30s before my wee brain put it together, that if a person was super strange and odd to me - I conversely am like to be equally as odd to them. I realized most people make that connection in, say, preschool.. but it took my mother in law saying "everyone has their picadillos!" and me joking "not me! I'm perfect and every decision is practical and makes sense." and she made a great comedic face. It hit me. I had babies and mothered my babies very differently than she did, and at that time there was a lot of disagreement about the proper way to do things.. and when I realized that for as strange as she was to me, I must be equally strange to her. That actually led to more compassion for her for me. I disagree with Ms. Davis as well - but how brave and scary to stand up for a belief that isn't popular, and now is illegal. I certainly have compassion for that.

It's interesting that you say that; I think that's possible and reasonable that you are right, but not being a doctor I wouldn't know for certain. I hope it's not true for all of them, and in my experience, there are a few doctors and nurses out there trying to make it better.

This is a group-office, where different doctors and midwives all operate together out of one practice. So I'll be changing to a different location, if I can find one that's still in network.

I'm sorry to hear that for you, the visits are usually terrible. If you don't like your providers, I'm assuming you don't feel you have a choice about who to see.

Prominent marriage equality advocate Magda Szubanski admitted her stamina was not as strong as some politicians last night following the passage of same-sex marriage laws through the Lower House.
"I couldn't party, I didn't have the stamina to go quite as long as some of the politicians. They're hardcore. Dude, this town (Canberra), they know how to party," she joked on TODAY.
"What an amazing day. Wake up this morning and we're all equal and what a beautiful feeling that is."
Szubanski's criticism of the need for a postal vote has not lessened since the bill's resounding passage through parliament yesterday afternoon.
"It's a little bit like, 'We're gonna run you over with a bus, but it's okay because you'll get the insurance compensation at the end'," she said.
"The Australian people have been remarkable through this and their support has been consistent. But there was no regulation around this, there was no governance.
"I've been called a pedophile, a pervert... I don't care, it's water off a duck's back. But for other people who are more vulnerable, or who are less further along in their journey, who are struggling with it themselves - it has been very damaging."
The high-profile comedian hopes this is the final hurdle in the debate.
"There's been a huge shift in attitudes towards LGBTQI people, like just a massive, massive shift," she said.
"A lot of people are going to feel far less burdened and much more able to be themselves, and be themselves in the... broader community."

Yep, Yayasan Sime Darby Arts Festival. To be held on 13-14th September at KL Performance Art Center's building and ground. Soooo activities - dance, film, theatre, music, traditional, contemporary. Rambang jugak la mata. Yasmin Ahmad's movies included - Sepet, Gubra, Muallaf.
With so many activities, I decided to settle on one which really stood out (in my eyes) coz Sheila Majid & Zainal will be performing...*squeal!!* All admissions are free actually but for a ticketed shows, a person can only collect personally 1 ticket, on first come first serve basis. Thankfully, there was a limited online giveaway ie 2 tix per person which I signed up and dapat yoooUU *squeal!*
During lunch hour break today, I drove to KLPAC nervously takut sesat barat. Nasib baik ada Waze.
'The impressive KLpac building has in fact a long history. The railway warehouse was in Sentul Park, a piece of land which came under YTL ownership with the acquisition of another company. The remodel features glass windows along the front of the building, as well as a walkway leading up to the building. In the 1800s, the building was a wood-crafting workshop and sawmill. In 1906, it became part of Sentul Works becoming the region's most important railway depot & workshop. It then was bombed during tail end of WWII but was soon rebuilt. It was converted into a makeshift golf clubhouse in the late 1960s, but became abandoned in the early 1990s.' Wikipedia
The interior is also very nice, lapang and very colourful.
D-day, 14th September
Husband was out-stationed and thankfully his flight back was on time (flew out from Heathrow). The plan was to wait for hubby to arrive at home and drove together to KLPAC. Event started 830pm and I would prefer to be there perhaps 30 mins before the curtain call. Mr Mike of KLPAC did advise to be there early since parking spaces are limited, thankfully we could still park at the roadside even though we arrived around 8pm.
I love the Colonel's Mansion, located at the park's entrance. (Photos from : http://savoirvivrekl.blogspot.com). Night time was even more spectacular, with strategically located lights. The mansion seriously looked creepy and yet hauntingly beautiful. Wished I had more time (and night photo-shooting skill) to take photos.
|Waiting excitedly for show to start
|There were 2 ladies, machoOO
|Raoul : Christine...That's all I ask of you...
Next - a symphony orchestra by KLPAC orchestra. Lady conductor..girlll power! Unfortunately, I could not recognize 3 out of 4 songs...too bad. Got a littleee sleepy hahahaha, except the parts when an orchestra member squeaked a rubber ducky ehehehe. Thankfully, the last orchestra played was 'My Way'. Segar balik.
Sheila was very elegant. Lawak pun lawak elegant. It was cute the way Zainal and Sheila kidded with each other. She got all of us standing up, clapping and singing together to her 'Sinaran'. Serak2 suara den weiii. Next year, will be her 30th year in show biz (can you believe that..) and there'll be concerts lined up. Stay tuned!
Owwhh...forgot to mention. Harith Iskandar was the emcee. No picture..Too busy paying attention to his jokes...ngehehehe..
What can I say. best huhuh! Ticket free and I got to see all these great performance. One thing I noticed, the hall was actually not fully occupied. Honestly, I think the organizer kept this event low key. Otherwise, people would be flooding the place. Free ticket some more, so there must be people (with tickets) who thinked tak rugi pun kalau tak pergi. Well, their loss!
Hah...it's a bi-annual event. See you in 2 years time.

A Taliban warlord Fazal Saeed Haqani who claims to control hundreds of soldiers said on Monday he had broken with the TTP militia and would form his own anti-American group along the Afghan border.
Fazal Saeed Haqqani described himself as the leader of Tehreek-e-Taliban (TTP) faction in the tribal district of Kurram, but said he had run out of patience with the network for killing civilians which is not permitted in Islam.
TTP has claimed a series of high-profile attacks in the nearly two months since American troops killed Osama.
He blamed TTP for more than 4,500 deaths mostly civilians in attacks since July 2007 so he had decided to form a new organisation - Tehreek-e-Taliban Islami.
"I repeatedly told the leadership council of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan that they should stop suicide attacks against mosques, markets and other civilian targets," Saeed told AFP by telephone.
"Islam does not allow killings of innocent civilians in suicide attacks," he said, likening what TTP does inside Pakistan to "what US troops are doing in Afghanistan" and vowing to continue the fight alone against US.

Aile Molyneaux has a secret, a passion, and a dream. She wants to fly — more than she could ever want anything else in the world. Of course, that's just not possible. All she can do is dream. Except that Aile lives in changing times. And the change that's coming is going to blow her, and the world around her, away. Metaphorically and literally. --- Aile's France is not too different from the one we know. The zeppelins fly overhead, shuttling passengers from city to city. The cars drive by, business continues as usual. Then one day a parallel universe touches hers, and suddenly everything changes. Les volants soar through the skies like angels. Dreams become real.

"We will provide the highest quality structure delivered
with the highest level of integrity to the honor of God."
"$1 from every ICF block sold is donated to ministry"
What exactly is an
Insulated Concrete Form (ICF)?
An Insulated Concrete Form (ICF) is made up of two panels of 16″ x 48″ expanded polystyrene (EPS) panels connected by plastic ties that are spaced 8″ on center and have the same nailing surface as a 2″ x 4″ or 2″ x 6″. The panels are spaced either 5″ or 7″ (inner dimension) apart from each other creating a cavity that will be filled with concrete. The ICF's are fit together like building blocks and filled with concrete to form the exterior walls of your home.
Why use Insulated
Concrete Forms (ICFs)?
ICFs are a proven technology that have been used to make buildings stronger, safer, quieter, healthier, more energy-efficient, less expensive to maintain, and more comfortable to live in. ICF walls are resistant to severe weather, fire, water, mold, and insects. There has been unprecedented growth in the use of ICFs in recent years because it offers huge advantages over other construction methods.
Ask Us A Question!
Crown ICF primarily serves Illinois & Wisconsin. We are located in Kenosha County, WI – between Chicago & Milwaukee. No matter if you're building a house, a storm shelter, or a commercial office space, we would love to be your source of ICF. Contact us today!

Alligator back to Simcoe
The W.D. Stalker Alligator boat has been safely returned to its home in Simcoe Ontario after a year and a half in the Ottawa Valley, where it was featured in the County of Renfrew's 150th anniversary EXPO and in two flotillas on the Ottawa River. Our thanks must go to Peter and Barb Haughton, who babysat the Stalker, moored in their cove near Bristol Quebec. Thanks also to Jim Savage of Pembroke Crane, Ray Kohlsmith Crane, John Shaw of Shaw Lumber, Dave Bennett of Marshall's Construction of Renfrew for their equipment and expertise. Hauling a 25 ton wooden boat in and out of the water and down the highway is no small feat. The Canadian Forestry Association was committed to make this project happen - it coudln't have been achieved without a lot of support from these fine people. Dave Lemkay

Alligators of the North
The book "Alligators of the North" is now available.
The Canadian Forestry Association is proud to promote this long-overdo book on the Alligator Steam Warping Tug Boat. Built in Simcoe, Ontario from 1889 through to the 1930s, the Alligator was a common sight in forest operations on rivers and lakes across eastern Canada and the USA up until the 1950s. The Alligator was a sturdy scow equipped with a winch and mile-long cable to tow massive booms of logs and even haul itself overland - hence the name "Alligator".
The front cover of this handsome 9"x9" book is graced with a Tom Thomson painting of a derelict alligator as found in Algonquin Park. It features over 80 images and drawings and a full index of companies, outstanding individuals and place names from Minnesota, across the Canadian shield to Maine! This book will be the one and only publication covering this topic in a lifetime.
If you enjoy Canadian northwoods nostalgia, forest or riverdrive lore and even mechanical innovation, this is a milestone book for your library. There are colourful references to Simcoe, Port Dover, Pembroke, Arnprior and other points in the Ottawa Valley watershed, Algonquin Park, the Trent-Severn System, Georgian Bay, Rainy River, Lake of the Woods, Lake Temiskaming and Lac St. Jean, La Mauricie in Quebec and places in Manitoba, Newfoundland, Minnesota and Maine, to name some.
"Alligators of the North" retails in participating book stores at $34.99 plus GST. If your book store doesn't stock it presently, ask them to order it for you. Or you can visit the publisher's web site at www.dundurn.com
If you're having trouble to obtain this book, you can email me or call me. I'll be glad to help.

Kolkata: West Bengal Chief Minister
Mamata Banerjee on Saturday took an apparent swipe at a section of
the Congress in the state without naming the party over the
February 28 general strike.
"I have seen that some people tend to raise a hue and
cry over a petty matter. They don`t want people to live in
peace. This section of people had their heydays during CPI(M)
regime," Banerjee told a gathering of unorganised labour at
Salt Lake stadium.
Yesterday, WBPCC and state INTUC chief Pradip
Bhattacharjee had said he would not support a general strike
on February 28, but an industrial strike.
The Congress has said that it would oppose the strike,
unlike ally Trinamool Congress which has stated it would be on
the streets against the shutdown.
"There are a few persons who were agents of the CPI(M)
for the last 35 years. We will not encourage them anymore,"
she said.
"Those who provoke, will be considered a plotter.
Those who encourage conspirators are also conspirators. These
people were quiet during the CPI(M) regime," she said.
"It is this section of the people who kept their eyes
closed during the atrocities over land acquisition at Singur,
Nandigram and Netai," Banerjee said.
"We will not allow anyone to play the band of CPI(M)
anymore. We will be playing the band of Ma, Mati and Manush,"
Banerjee said.
Assuring that her government was committed to deliver,
the chief minister said "people are living in peace in our
state. They have regained their rights. This may be causing
discomfort to a small section of the people."
In a reference to the incident at Dewandighi in
Burdwan in which two CPI(M) local leaders were killed, she
said "we won`t allow politics of village recaptured."
Urging workers and employees to turn up for work on
February 28, she said "I would like to urge you not to allow
anyone to strike work or put up road blockades. Don`t fall
into the trap of provocations."

Shorty, huh?
Well, good mother needs to take her baby to see the doctor regularly in order to have the baby vaccinated. We, again, good mothers, need to see our own child's tears and listen to our own child's cries. I wish I could be a bad mother instead.
This time is Pasu's turn. He is already 13 and a half months. I do not even remember the name of the vaccination because there are too many to remember. Good mother I am, indeed. After his routine of measuring the height and weight, I met one mother with a daughter. We smiled and had a little chat. I asked her how old of her little daughter. One year and one month old was her reply. Oh, same age as Pasu, I thought to myself. I told her that Pasu hasn't gotten any weight since last month. She looked panic and asked if that was below the average percentage line. I told her that I never keep track of that line. Now I got a crazy look from her. Should I be worried? She just made me feel guilty, like I am a bad mother who never pays attention to all details of her own child.
Doctor greeted Pasu nicely and asked me what he can do. I told her that he can say simple words like mother, eat and he can also walk. Doctor talked with her smile, "He probably walks a lot, according to the progression of his weight." I smiled back and said, "Oh, yes. The only times he doesn't walk are when he poops and sleeps."
Apparently, that percentage line came back to haunt me. According to it, Pasu is a little bit small, or you can call him Shorty. This has to do with nature and nurture. He eats his meal and drinks his milk less because now he discovers new ways of learning and playing. Walking and climbing are his favorite activities. He's been in this world long enough to know what he likes and dislikes. He knows how to say NO by shaking his head. Well, at least baby knows what he/she wants. The secret of this problem is more milk, more appealing and yummy meals and early sleep. Growth hormone works well at night.
Each baby has his/her own pace of growing and every baby is different. I'd love to see my son happily develops his ability. No pushing, however, a little bit of the discipline wouldn't hurt him. Is that right, my son?


text: Thanks so much, Ms. K, for sharing your pictures and your gorgeousness! Ms. K came in for a session as an anniversary gift for her husband. We even managed to work it out that she would bring her husband to the Studio Unveiling so that he could help pick out his favorite images! We had a great time and I was even able to share with them both (Ms during her session and Mr during the Unveiling) the gift that keeps on giving of the Rebecca Black song, Friday, and it's AMAZING music video (which has been pulled off of YouTube unfortunately). You can thank me later, guys. =) Anyway, thanks again, Ms. K. You're beautiful and smart and funny and the Mr is a seriously lucky guy. =)

The eye can be taken a look at with relative ease as to both its function and its structure. A functional evaluation consists of the ability to relocate the orbit and the reaction of the pupil to light and lodging.
The function of the eye might be evaluated in numerous ways. The patient may be asked to determine illuminated letter or things of differing sizes on exactly what is called the Snellen chart.
Alternatively, the evaluation of the structural part of the eye may be made in numerous ways. Tension within the eyeball is determined by a "tonometer." In particular diseases, particularly in glaucoma, the stress in the eyeball is increased considerably.
Nevertheless, it should be well remembered that a patient with an eye issue may have other problems also. Frequently other physical conditions are main and impact the eye as a effect. The look of the eye can alert the patient and the physician to troubles in some disruptions of other parts of the body even prior to other symptoms present themselves.
One's dependence on sight is emphasized when one faces a possible or momentary long-term loss of this crucial sense. For this reason, when restorative procedures are looked for, specific types of vision correction such as contact lenses or glasses are prescribed.
On the other hand, some individuals are troubled with the reality that they have some framed lenses or contact lenses in front of their eyes.
For this reason, advanced surgeries were established to motivate reduced utilization of contact lenses or glasses. Among which is the now popular LASIK eye surgery.
Basically, LASIK eye surgical treatment is the short term for "Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis." Like its tangible equivalent, LASIK eye surgery is another form of vision see here now correction. The only distinction is that with this type of surgical treatment, one's vision is fixed permanently.
With LASIK eye surgical treatment, the refractive errors in the cornea are completely transformed. This can be done utilizing an "excimer laser."
The main function of this surgery is to develop a threadlike, rounded "flap" in the cornea using a blade understood more info here as "microkeratome." In a series of unfolding and laser processing, the cornea is finally reformed, permitting better the eye to direct more light into the retina.
Appeal vs. Disadvantages
In the middle of the growing appeal of LASIK eye surgery, there are still disadvantages that individuals should know. Most likely, the main reason that this type of eye surgical treatment has actually become well accepted is because many of its cases had actually succeeded.
In spite of its success, there are still some disadvantages. Here is the list:
1. It is an operation used to the most sensitive part of the eye
Due to the fact that LASIK eye surgery involves the operation of the retina, which is among the most delicate portions of the eye, many people say that the operation can be really risky.
Simply puts, a basic mistake might practically cause an person's life time loss of sight. It is crucial to think about lots of factors before deciding whether LASIK eye surgery is the right corrective measure one has to undergo.
2. It is not a perfect procedure
LASIK eye surgery may correct your vision but it does not always mean that it can give you a twenty-twenty. Even if statistical reports reveal that 70% of the clients might have 20/20 vision, this does not necessarily imply they have ideal vision as well.
Provided all visit this site these things, it can be deduced that, in spite of the popularity of the operation, LASIK may not constantly be the perfect eye surgery the method many people view it
Conversely, the examination of the structural part of the eye might be made in a number of ways. It should be well kept in mind that a patient with an eye issue might have other issues. Frequently other physical conditions are primary and affect the eye as a repercussion. The look of the eye can notify the client and the physician to problems in some disruptions of other parts of the body even prior to other symptoms present themselves.
Like its tangible counterpart, LASIK eye surgery is another type of vision correction.
Two Aspects You Do Certainly Not Figure Out When It Comes To LASIK Eye Surgery
The eye can be taken a look at with relative ease as to both its function and its structure. A functional evaluation consists of the ability to relocate the orbit and the reaction of the pupil to light and lodging.

A lifesaving organisation has been given a £1,000 boost by leek club members.
Rockcliffe Arms Leek Club has been supporting Cullercoats RNLI for almost a decade, and its latest donation takes the total it has given it over the last nine years to £9,000.
The money was raised over the last few weeks by holding raffles, tombolas and domino cards, as well as donations from customers and staff at the pub.
Club chairman Mal Ross said: "One of the main reasons we continue supporting RNLI Cullercoats is because the charity does not receive any government funding, and we have seen at first hand where our donations go.
"Supporting a local charity run by local volunteers is an important reason why we help the lifeboat.
"I'd like to thank all the staff and customers of the Rockcliffe Arms who have supported our fundraising efforts."
Cullercoats RNLI treasurer David Hodgson said: "The support of the Rockcliffe Arms Leek Club is greatly appreciated."
"The amount they have raised over the years has directly benefitted the funding of Cullercoats Lifeboats and goes towards maintaining the station and updating life saving equipment.
"Thank you to everyone who has supported the Leek Club at The Rockcliffe Arms."

Don't Gamble with Your Family
12th April 2017
Guest blogger Marie warns of the dangers of risking your family life for the thrill of gambling.
What happens to the rest of the family when mum or dad has a gambling problem?
A compulsion to gamble might not just affect the family financially, it may also damage the whole family dynamic, causing stress, anxiety, and perhaps even violence. Some of the common things GamCare hears about include:
- Arguing more, especially about money, budgeting and debt
- Being preoccupied with gambling and finding it difficult to focus on other things
- Spending less time with people and more time gambling
- Lying to friends and family about losses
- Stealing money from friends and family to gamble with
Gambling problems cause strong feelings. Family members may feel ashamed, hurt, afraid, angry, confused and distrustful. These feelings make it harder to move forward.
In addition, if parents or carers gamble, young people are twice as likely to be at risk and four times more likely to develop a gambling problem as they get older.
If you think that gambling may be an issue for you, try GamCare's self-assessment tool and answer a few quick questions for tailored advice.
If you would like to talk to someone about your gambling, the National Gambling HelpLine is available every day of the year to give you information, advice and support.
It can be scary to ask for help, but for the sake of your family, your relationships, job and even your home, it's worth it.
GamCare also provide counselling support for friends and family members who have been affected by problem gambling – find out more.

Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.
20 Dec
My sister & I were in Winter Park today and stopped at Orchid Thai for lunch. It was a gorgeous day so we sat outside and had soup and appetizers.
I got the coconut soup and she went for the lemongrass soup. The aroma of both were amazing. The lemongrass soup was a bit spicy with lots of vegetables. The coconut soup had a beautiful lime, coconut, lemongrass flavor to it. Yum! We settled on the Orchid Sampler and an order of the golden purses to munch on.
The sampler had summer rolls, spring rolls, crispy shrimp, dumplings and curry puffs. The dumplings and spring rolls were my favorite. We both found the curry puffs to be a bit overpowering. The golden purses are basically crab rangoons. They had a nice crunch on the outside with a creamy filling. It was a fresh, tasty lunch for $38.

A renowned penny stocks analyst and expert trader, Peter Leeds provides exclusive information about which penny stocks to pick and which to avoid for maximum potential growth.
New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/15/2013 -- Providing information on what are penny stocks, he suggests that investors should avoid buying Pink Sheet penny stocks, should not buy penny stocks they heard about from untrusted sources and avoid penny stock email scams that are not legit.
Peter Leeds says that by avoiding these pitfalls traders can make better decisions about which penny stocks to invest in. Mr. Leeds also adds that avoiding the manipulated penny stocks are just the first step in the process.
Step two is to pick stocks that have the best potential gains based on their financial history, trading history, management team and marketing position. Investors should only trust research sources that have no first hand interest in the outcome of the stocks they recommend.
Peter says, "Did you know that what many penny stocks represent are America's best undiscovered, up-and-coming companies? Many penny stocks are trading for pennies a share simply because they are undiscovered or just getting started. Many of these penny stocks go from obscurity to world renowned companies in a matter of years, or months! And guess what? They take their investors along for the ride."
Which penny stocks to buy is a difficult question. However traders have Peter Leeds and his team at their disposal through his online newsletter. All their penny stock picks are put through his Leeds Analysis. Less than 5% of the stocks analyzed pass, leaving only the best penny stocks for traders to invest in and earn potential gains.
Inviting inquiries from interested investors, Peter Leeds says, "Now novice investors can be a part of this exciting knowledge to help invest wisely. Visitors are welcomed to sign up for a free trial of the Peter Leeds newsletter and learn exactly what penny stocks are!"

About Peter Leeds:

It is essential that a floor is correctly prepared before your floor covering is installed.
Wherever possible, we will inspect the quality of the floor when we visit for an estimate. We will then advise you what, if anything, needs to be done prior to the floor covering being installed.
If we feel we need to bring the floor up to a satisfactory standard we will inform you of this and advise you of the cost. This preparation work may including hard-boarding, ply-boarding or applying a self-levelling compound (known as screed). Sometimes screed can take up to 6 hours to dry which means a delay in fitting, but we do try to inform you this prior to our arrival.

Historical Examples of integrator
Abdank-Abakanowicz's integrator however certainly went further in the practical direction than any previously constructed.
An integrator which draws an absolute picture of the sum or integral is better termed an "integraph."
The superiority of the integraph over the integrator cannot be better pointed out than by a concrete example.
The new kind of integrator was really only an independent version of Boys' instrument, but in many respects a great improvement.
An instrument giving all three quantities simultaneously is known as Amsler's integrator or moment-planimeter.
a person or thing that integrates, esp a mechanical instrument that determines the value of a definite integral, as the area under a curveSee also planimeter
- an arithmetic component with two input variables, x and y, whose output variable z is proportional to the integral of y with respect to x

This image was wavelet and color balanced in Registax. Then ran it thru photoshop and rotated it. Then I adjusted the brightness along the edges to give it a more uniform brightness across the globe without overdo'ing it. Applied a little motion sharpness, then a little unsharp mask to come up with this final image.
I ended up taking a LOT of AVI's this morning. Seeing appeared a lot better than yesterday's images. Transparency was quite good, although every so often a thin cloud came by, but it was extremely thin, and noticed the brightness changing mostly on wxastrocap's histogram readings.
Here are a few more images I took last night, although I didnt go thru all the steps in processing...
|Nice clear shot showing some white spots on the EZ
|Taken using the green filter.
|Jupiter, Io and Europa in that order
|OK Shot showing the GRS.
The images taken with the green filter sure shows the detail, but they do have to be shot in monochrome, which makes for a less pleasing image.

A man was raped in the New Kingston area by a group of men posing as women. They proceed to tied him up, robbed, and raped him
The incident happens on August 17 when officer at the St Andrew Central police division responded to a radio transmission of a robbery along Braemar Avenue.
When police arrived at the scene, they discovered a nude man tied up at a gate with his feet and hands bound.
The officers assisted the man to get loose before he was brought to the station to record his statement.
The victim was on his way from work and saw a group of women soliciting sex he went to them and he was overpowered and tied up, but not before they robbed, stripped him of his clothes and took him to nearby bushes and began to sexually assault him.
The police are currently investigating they also think there may be other victims who may be embarrassed to come forward.

Member spotlight at Summit Denton: Meet Haris & Rachel
We're really excited about the community we have built here at Summit. We have such a cool group of members and thought y'all deserved some recognition. So we wanted to start featuring more member spotlights on our blog and social media! Keep an eye out for regular posts to our Facebook and Instagram giving some of our members little shout-outs, as well as blog posts!
The good, the bad, and the epic - what are some of your climbing misadventures?
A guest post by contributing author Hamilton White
Climbing trips always come with some kind of bad news. Usually it's rain or you and your buddies forgot peanut butter. Hopefully it's a story you'd want to tell others and laugh about, like the time I first climbed the Spider Grind at Reimer's Ranch, and learned halfway through the route why it's called Spider Grind. That's why for the last several weeks I bounced back and forth between members of the Summit climbing community for the sake of gathering stories to share with you all. I heard about pizza parlor basements, a climbing trip for the temporarily deaf that, for reasons not related to hearing resulted in sleeping in the team van, and my own first outdoor climbing trip to Barton Creek in Austin.
In the fresh 2017 winter, a trip to RRG without checking the forecast was all but asking for a discouraging experience. Snow and sub 20 degrees fahrenheit easily pushed one Summit climber and his partner out of their tent, and into the toasty basement of the known resting and food spot, Miguel's Pizza. Games and space heaters make it fairly understandable to opt out of sleeping in a six-person tent just the two of them, even though they brought enough insulation for a house. Plus, there was the added benefit of kickin' it with a teacher who lives out of his van when school isn't in session. And when night rolls around, maybe the question, "Would anyone notice or care if we slept here?" is a good question to ask. But it's good they still left some cash in that lock box for the owner after drinking so much of the Ale81 piled up in crates, and for sleeping in the basement, of course.
Anyone who knows this climber as I do experienced my personal favorite part about this story. A few days into their trip, the climber-in-question's mother made a Facebook post asking if anyone had seen her child. Apparently, the two climbers had initially planned to climb in Red Rock State Park Arizona, but on closer look there was a "virtually one-hundred percent chance of rain for the whole week." So, in place of Red Rock, the two decided to travel nine-hundred and sixty-eight miles in the other direction to Red River Gorge, without informing their parents. I was fortunate enough to have seen the initial post, and the aftermath of her search (eventually they connected over the phone) all in one sitting. So, I got all the entertainment, and none of the worry. I'm told Mom was pissed.
My own favorite story to tell is the time I took my first outdoor climbing trip as a sophomore in college (I'm a super senior now). About halfway through the drive to ATX, in a Taco Bell parking lot, everyone got into the bed of the truck to grab wallets out of packs when one of our (there were four of us) friends frantically started to sift through his bag as realization sunk in. "Oh no, I forgot all my gear. We have to go back!" Of course, we weren't going to do that at 4:00pm on the first day of spring break, traveling on I-35. We actually wanted to get where we were going. We looked around the bed of the truck and finally someone said, "Dude, you forgot your gear but remembered your guitar?" He was understandably upset, and I certainly didn't help by chronicling his distress on Facebook. Which, he explicitly asked that I not do, although I lost sympathy for his request once he wore my new Anasazi's without socks, my one condition for him borrowing them. A perpetual sogginess followed those shoes.
Our next story is from Mia Alfonso, a climber at the Denton location and student at the University of North Texas. Initially when I heard Mia's story in blurb form, I thought, "Oh, you just got some soggy hamburgers, that's like forgetting peanut butter. No biggie." But it turns out there was more, starting with the fact that the Team Natural kids -who climb down in Houston- like to play a game during travel when one person wears noise cancelling headphones and that person has to guess the word that everyone is trying to say. They chose to say phrases like, "fat chickens," which is cool, I guess. I'd pick supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, because why wouldn't you?
The trip started out fine, according to Mia. The weather was slightly cloudy, but nothing had indicated the need to turn around and go home. Not even the absent rainfly that she and her tent mates were going to sorely miss come 1:00am. And what an experience it must have been; sleeping in a van with five other people for the remainder of the trip.
What's your funny and altogether-at-once unfortunate climbing story? Did you flex out on the starting hold? That crag puppy turn you into a hang-dog on a 5.5? Share with me!
Carrollton member party extravaganza bonanza: a recap
Thanks to Jimmy Paenkhay for taking these shots and thanks to everyone who came out! We had over 160 tee shirts tie-dyed, floated 4 kegs of beer, threw 375 water balloons, did probably 45 cool tricks on the slip n slide, and went through like, 70 pounds of hamburger meat. If you have any photos of your own from the event, feel free to upload them to Instagram and tag us @summitclimbingyogafitness or hashtag #summitclimbingyogafitness! Or, ya know, good ol' Facebook works too.
Alternative facts - 15 common climbing terms and what they REALLY mean
We climbers pride ourselves on our lingo - it sets us apart from the rest of humanity and makes us feel good when we mystify regular folks with talk of "crash pads" and "toe hooks." (Both of these sound pretty weird when taken out of the context of climbing, eh?) But did you know there is a sub-language within our climberisms? There's the climbing term we use, and then what we actually meant. You might not even know you're doing this but believe me ... you're doin' it. I translated some common climberisms, and here's what I came up with:
What it's supposed to mean: You lightly brushed an off-route hold or object while climbing - depending on your ethics, this may invalidate a send.
What it REALLY means: Yeah ... you totally used that off hold. Like, not even just a little bit. We're talking like, fully-weighted it, but it was only ONCE and it started as an accident so the send TOTALLY still counts, right?
Send temps:
What it's supposed to mean: The ideal temperatures at which to climb, which can vary depending on the location, climate and rock type.
What it REALLY means: A temperature so perfect, you could send like, 2 grades harder if it ever occurred. Unfortunately for you, this temperature is more elusive than a unicorn, so you're stuck projecting things WAY below your limit.
What it's supposed to mean: A large, dynamic lead fall, where the rope is weighted significantly.
What it REALLY means: Any fall, really. Like top-rope, lead ... you can even whip off a boulder nowadays if you try hard enough. Whipper is a state of mind - if it felt big, it WAS big.
What it's supposed to mean: The hardest sequence, or sequences of moves of a problem or route.
What it REALLY means: Any move you can't do.
What it's supposed to mean: Working a route while taking and hanging on the draws.
What it REALLY means: Spending half your climbing session hanging at the same draw while brushing the same hold and saying "just one more try" like seven tries ago.
What it's supposed to mean: New and innovative routesetting.
What it REALLY means: No holds. Only volumes.
What it's supposed to mean: Climbing a route on your first try, without any previous knowledge or beta for the route.
What it REALLY means: When you send something after only watching someone do like, the first half. Or it was so long ago you don't remember any of the moves so it was basically an onsight.
Heel Hook:
What it's supposed to mean: A climbing move where you place your heel on a hold and weight it almost like you would a hand.
What it REALLY means: A move that looks cool when other people do it, but every time you try it you have to ask yourself "Am I doing this right?" and you know the answer is no because you don't know what you're doing.
What it's supposed to mean: Loose, poor quality rock.
What it REALLY means: Any route or area that sucks, regardless of rock quality.
What it's supposed to mean: A handhold grabbed with your thumb pointing down and elbow out.
What it REALLY means: A hold employed by routesetters when they hate you.
What it's supposed to mean: A hold with the usable surface on the underside, and is grabbed by pulling up instead of down.
What it REALLY means: A hold that just HAS to be a spinner.
What it's supposed to mean: To climb a route from bottom to top without falling, weighting any gear, or using anything considered "off."
What it REALLY means: You only fell like, one and a half times.
What it's supposed to mean: A constructed feature that either can be used as a hand or foothold or can have additional holds bolted onto it.
What it REALLY means: A death feature that will literally MURDER YOU TO DEATH when fallen on. THANKS AGAIN ROUTESETTERS.
What it's supposed to mean: A climbing command meant to express that you want excess rope in the belay system to be taken up.
What it REALLY means: Something yelled after you've already fallen off the wall.
What it's supposed to mean: A route graded easier than what most of its previous climbers would generally agree with.
What it REALLY means: Everything ever set. EVER.
There you have it! Feel free to tell me any I might have missed!
Bang for your buck - why TRX classes are just another benefit of being a member at Summit
Here at Summit we pride ourselves in being more than just climbing gyms — we're yoga studios, workout spaces, and fitness class providers. We recently branched out our fitness classes to include TRX suspension training classes, and we're very excited to be expanding our TRX classes, with more class types and times. If you haven't tried one of our TRX classes, yet, here is a bit more about the classes, and their benefits for your climbing, and your overall fitness.
The Luau was LIT: Results from our Spring Open competition
Hey guys! Thanks to everyone who came out and made our Spring Open competition an absolute blast! Y'all certainly dressed the part - pretty sure we had more Hawaiian shirts and fake leis than Hawaii #guesstimate #quickmath. While uncooperative weather made some of our outdoor activities a little chilly (we had such high hopes for the dunk tank ...) hopefully the awesome food trucks and FREE BEER made up for it! A big congrats to the winner of our Buttermilk Sky-sponsored pie-eating contest — also sorry for how sick you probably felt later ... also not sorry.
Are you ready to Luau?! It's our annual Spring Open Bouldering Competition next weekend!
Our Spring Open Bouldering Competition is next Saturday, and we are getting SO. DANG. PSYCHED. Last year was our first-ever Spring Open, and our first competition to feature a block party in the middle of it. This year we're making it bigger and better, and wanted to share with y'all some of the great activities we have planned, so y'all come out and join us! PLUS- it's LUAU-themed, so get ready for leis, tacky shirts, drink umbrellas, and oddly-placed coconuts!
The League of Extraordinary Boulderers: Bouldering League starts soon, so what's the deal with that anyways?
Fooootlooooooose! Results and photos from our campus competition!
Couples who climb together, stay together – couples who met at a Summit Gym
It's Valentine's Day! Whether you care or not ... it's here! In honor of Valentine's Day, we rounded up some of the folks who met their significant other here at our gyms, and got their stories. It's really amazing the amount of relationships that have started at our gyms — we snagged a few of our happy couples to tell us how they met! So if you find yourself alone this Valentine's Day, don't fret — A. Because it is a totally arbitrary holiday! and B. because there might totally be someone for you at the gym right now!
Try something new with TRX!
When it comes to fitness nowadays, there are plenty of newfangled machines you can buy to get you fit - row machines, stationary bikes, even the Shake Weight promises you results in 3 short payments of $19.95*. (*Editor's note: I have no idea how much the Shake Weight actually costs - you can dispute this with me if you want, then you'd have to admit you actually bought one of these things ... ) But who would have thought that it takes nothing more than two straps and your own body weight to whip you into shape? TRX, the latest addition to Summit's fitness class offerings, is a full-body workout that's quick to learn and a lot of fun — you won't realize you're even working out until you're crazy sore the next day.
If the outdoors are calling, High Point Expeditions can give you the skills you need to answer
You might have noticed we started carrying a lot of guidebooks in all our gear shops! We realize there is a lot more climbing out there than just at our gyms - so we want to encourage all our members to eventually make the leap from indoor climbing to outdoor climbing. There is a lot more involved in outdoor climbing than a waiver and an orientation, however — so what is the easiest way to become comfortable with climbing outside?
Appreciate your access: how to respect outside climbing areas while still sending hard
Climbing outside is great, huh? The fresh air, the feel of REAL ROCK and the chance to break in that brand new rack of draws your mom got you for Christmas! Sometimes the climbing community as a whole can take our access to outside climbing areas for granted, though. We're climbing on big rocks that have been in place for centuries — seems like a no-brainer that we should be allowed to do that, right? I mean, rocks are free?!!!?? But behind every accessible climbing area, there is a local or national organization fighting to maintain its access and upkeep. According to the Access Fund, one in five climbing areas in the U.S. is threatened by an access issue. So today's post is all about access! Since we realize you guys can't spend every day climbing in our gyms and will want to venture outside, here are some tips to keep your impact low while climbing outside - a great way to keep our climbing areas open to climbers today, and in the future.
Routesetters - a shoutout to the folks who help make our gyms so great
As the year comes to a close, we're left to reflect on our accomplishments of the past 365 days — miles driven, friends' birthdays Facebook had to remind you of, tinder dates never texted again — and for us climbers, routes climbed. For every route or problem you've climbed this year, there was a routesetter behind it — setting every hold, move, and tweaking every angle. It's actually a pretty insane amount of work - in 2017 alone, Summit routesetters set over 4,600 different routes and boulder problems.

SBS Season Finale at Denton - final placements and photos!
ClimbFit comes to Grapevine!
For anyone who climbs out of Grapevine wanting to take their climbing to the next level, we're very happy to announce that our ClimbFit program has recently taken up residence there! ClimbFit classes are held Mondays and Wednesdays, and combine strength and conditioning exercises with climbing drills to help you become a stronger, confident, more well-rounded climber. Plus, they're a lot of fun, and you get to participate with some pretty awesome folks! The ClimbFit instructors at Grapevine are Chris Hobbs and Dylin Worrell, two really psyched, but laid-back guys. They were both independently excited to start a ClimbFit class at Grapevine, so ClimbFit founder Mario put them both together, and they've been killin' it ever since! I sat down and talked with the two of them briefly, so y'all can hear a little bit more of their background / learn why they were chosen to lead the class!

Smith as its Founder and first President, ASP had 13 subdivisions: Bioluminescence, Environmental Photobiology, Non-Visual Photoreception, Photochemistry, Photomedicine, Photomorphogenesis, Photomovement, Photophysics, Photosensitization, Photosynthesis, Spectroscopy, UV Radiation Photobiology, and Vision. My vision was to bring all areas of photobiology under one roof so that every photobiologist felt at home, and they could share their wisdom with other photobiologists.
There were Councilors for each of these divisions, so that all divisions were represented. Yes, it was a chore to find people to run for these offices, but the effort was worth it for the good of the Society.
For a number of years, ASP was a happy family of people devoted to the study of the multiple areas of photobiology. We socialized together, and talked to the people in the different specialties. The membership kept climbing.
An event at the first meeting in 1973 exemplified what I was trying to accomplish with the formation of ASP. People meet new people in the different subdivisions of photobiology, and shared their knowledge. One day some photodermatologists were sitting in the hotel lobby talking to some photochemists, whom they had never met before. One of the photodermatologists said, "we have a research problem that we don't know how to solve". The photochemists said, "we know how to solve that problem". Collaborations were started that greatly enhanced the field of photodermatology. This is exactly what I wanted to accomplish by starting the ASP.
Unfortunately, in a few years, bad things happened to ASP.
Subsequent Presidents decided to simplify things, and grouped the 13 divisions into 5 divisions: (1) Photochemistry, Photophysics and Phototechnology, (2) Photosensory and Circadian Biology, (3) Photosynthesis, Bio- and Chemiluminescece, (4) Photomedicine, (5) Environmental Photobiology and UV Effects.
Not a good idea! For example, in Section (3), Photosynthesis and Bio- and Chemiluminescece have little in common. One harvests photons (photosynthesis), and one gives off photons. A Councilor for Section 3 would probably have little knowledge of both subjects. As a consequence of the new divisions, ASP lost membership in the unmentioned specialties.
Councilors are now elected by selecting whomever will serve, with no thought about their photobiological specialty. ASP is now primarily a photomedicine society.
However, things may be changing. ASP (2013) has a new "flower" that tries to bring the different areas of photobiology together. The seven new divisions are: Photosensory Biology, Public Health, Phototechnology, Molecular and Cellular, Photomedicine, Environmental and Photochemistry/Photophysics. Each of these Divisions has seven subdivisions.
Maybe there is yet hope for a rebirth of ASP, and it original goals.
The "flower" with its subdivisions is shown below.

Ukip gained no seats but did come second in nine out of the 21 wards.
The Conservatives held on to two seats with Paul Hand-Davis and Andrew Milner elected in the Penistone East and West wards. The turnout was 56.2 per cent.
Before the election, Barnsley Council was made up of 53 Labour councillors, four Conservatives and six independents.
This has now changed to 55 Labour councillors, four independents and four Conservatives.
Barnsley's parish elections in Brierley and Penistone saw Pat Doyle, Susan Hardwick, Ashley Peace and Davina McLeod elected to Brielrey Town Council in the Brierley ward and Oliver Denton, Judith Kimberley and Stephen Webber elected to Penistone Town Council in the Thurlstone and Millhouse ward.

So I'm one week into my 21 day Daniel fast. Had various ups and downs along the way. I'm trying really hard not to make the focus of this about the food. I started the week feeling confident and hopeful, I have struggled with a lot of abdominal pain, which has made it hard to sleep. I have fallen asleep whilst praying and felt the frustration. But having said all that, God is speaking.
I felt to read Revelation 3. I just read the first 3 verses and was impacted with the words "your works have fallen short" and "having an appearance of being alive but actually being dead" and being "watchful or waking up". So I spent some time with sharing this with 2 friends and we repented of our works being self-centered, of having an appearance of being alive when in truth the life of Jesus is not very obvious in us. We asked the Lord to forgive and guide us into His paths for our lives. He spoke to us of having white robes to wear. I wasn't sure why we needed them but as we waited in His presence I realized the white robes are our identity and to cover us. They are very valuable, bought with the precious blood of Jesus. There was a truly sweet sense of the presence of the Lord.
In Verse 3 it talks of remembering how you have received and heard. This I have considered, how do I receive from the Lord, its often in prayer and in studying the word. These are the areas that I need to focus on, least they die too. So I felt like I was on track. I needed to pray more, read the word and spend time with Jesus. All I had to do now was put it into practice and not fall asleep while praying.
The scary part of this verse here is where it says that if we don't wake up Jesus will come as a thief when we do not expect him. So I looked up the word "thief" and it can also mean false teacher. So basically if I don't watch and strengthen myself I may end up deceived. Not a nice thought.
Spent some time soaking in the presence of the Lord with some friends and knowing His love, just letting him love on me. It kind of turns things back the right way up again. He is so faithful and so good. Thank you Lord.
I have been saying for a while "Its time to rise up". Ken McGreevy bought that word to us as a church several years ago at camp. Isaiah 61. My challenge now is to actually do it not just talk about it as a thing in the future. So I'm asking God to show me how and will take this into next week
"Behold I stand at the door and knock, if anyone hears my voice I will come in and dine with them".
