Kenner delivers a compelling and sexy tale in her new book Wanted. Wanted gives the reader an erotic tale of a woman whose life is at a crossroads as she must make the decision to stay on the path that she has chosen for herself or the path that is true to herself. Kenner does a great job with her development of the Angelina character whose uncle's death puts her at a crossroads. I liked how Kenner introduced Angelina's past throughout the book giving the reader glimpses of what drove her and at the same time slowly allowing Angelina to realize that she wasn't really living her life for herself. Add in a handsome, sexy bad boy and you got an exciting read. Evan is the one person who truly saw the real Angelina with the exception of her now deceased uncle, and I liked how Kenner slowly built the connection between Angelina and Evan. Overall Wanted was an exciting read that really captured the reader's attention and never let go. I am looking forward to reading more by this author.
Received a copy of Wanted through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Daniel Sturridge could not have picked a better time to score his 1st goal in 132 days as he opened the scoring during Liverpool's 4-0 rout of West Ham.
Much to the surprise of Liverpool fans, the Englishman started the match for the Reds at the London Stadium earlier today.
But it wasn't surprising when he rounded off the keeper to put Liverpool 1-0 ahead after a beautiful assist from Coutinho.
And the striker took to social media to acknowledge while also not forgetting the Hammers fan who was obviously less than pleased to see the wavy hands make a comeback.

Finally! All of life's BIG secrets – revealed!
What is the purpose of life?
Is there a God?
How can He permit so much suffering in this world?
Is there life after death? Can we be 100% sure?
These questions and many more are addressed in The Answer: Proof of God in Heaven.
There are seven Universal Laws, which together define the very basic blueprint of this Universe.
Understanding and applying these gives us a MASTER KEY for all knowledge.
But The Answer delves much further into the truth of these laws and their application in our everyday
lives. There are absolute ANSWERS to all the questions of faith, purpose, and our paths in life.
Just like the answer to a complicated puzzle, once revealed, makes the puzzle understandable, this
Book intends to solve the riddles of life with stunning simplicity, offering an enduring peace.
The Answer discusses, for example:
• The eternal Law of Cause and Effect.
• What Jesus meant when he said in his Sermon on the Mount, "Whatever you sow, you shall reap."
• The three spheres, heaven, hell and purgatory; they are real and incredibly logical.
• The answer to the development of our souls.
• How this universe is perfectly balanced and just.
• How this universe never forgets.

I met Tiffany Marie Lemon in February 2015 through my husband (fiancé at the time). He had known her since she was like 12 or 13 and she was, at the time, 19. At first I was lol "Oh yeah she's cool and she likes a lot of the same things as us."
Blah blah blah. My husband and I then decided once we were all comfortable with the idea we would have a threesome. Well as time went on, my husband was coming home from work later and later. When he was home, she was over and he'd give her a ride home. This went in until like May and me being the dumba$$ that I am, didn't get suspicious until then. One night he had me plug his dead phone in and I did and turned the phone on and looked at his message. The last message from her was "Can we smoke after we f**k?" I was fng livid!! Long story short, they got caught and we broke up for a few weeks and then got back together. Oh, and did I mention, the whole time she and my husband slept together, she was pretending to date my brother-in-law!! Now this is just my story… here's the reason she's Queen HOMEWRECKER. She is in "relationships" with multiple guys at a time. She pretends to be with one guy and then will be sleeping with 2 other guys on the side. She would give ***** s to any guy to get weed, or smokes. The list goes on and on…

: Here at Naruto: Tenebrae Surgentes we take pride in the art of roleplay. We would love to invite you to our roleplay so you to can take part in the Naruto roleplay that we have put together for your enjoyment. We adore our members and will aid you in creating a character and getting into the roleplay as fast as possible. Character creation is easy, unfortunately we only allow original characters, all of the Canon characters are played by the admins to make sure everyone is even, and can all fairly choose their sides and learn from the canon characters. Along with this we take place in an 'alternate' universe allowing the game to focus on many aspects of different characters rather then just one character (Ala Naruto) our first plot is located right below the description. We do hope that you will consider us for your roleplaying needs. Thank you. (Link is attached to the banner.)
Our story begins like every other story that has any merit of being told. Our story begins with a single action that is made to shape the world. Our story starts with Megumi Nomaku, a woman of the Nomaku clan who 20 years before the start of our storyline did an action that would forever shape the world that we know and adore today. Megumi Nomaku was a normal teenage girl at the time when she was confronted by the evil of Sai Shirokami a man of the Shirokami clan who was, at the time, a rival of the Nomaku clan. Megumi was always the prize of the Nomaku clan, her beauty and skill was not matched in Iwagakure, and this made Sai highly jealous.
Sai wasn't one to be very kind either, on the even of Megumi's 20th birthday he heard that she had given birth to a child whom she had named Sora. Sai quickly reacted to this news and kidnapped the child which sent the Nomaku clan into a frenzy and made the current head of the Nomaku clan get into a confrontation with the head of the Shirokami clan. Megumi knew however who had taken the child, and knew where the man was. She saw the turmoil that the clan's feud with each other was causing for the city and quickly reacted by using her sensing jutsu to track down Sai. Eventually, she tracked him down to the mountain overlooking the village.
Sai had prepped a trap for Megumi during this time that she was searching and tracking him. So he just stood there when she had reached him. Megumi noting the child was safe for now began approaching him and noticed his calm demeanor so instead of falling into his trap, she easily noticed his trap and quickly did a jutsu allowing her to attack him from afar and bind him in place. Sai, having not expected this, fell into it quite easily. She jumped over his trap and landed in-front of him taking Sora way from him, and in her anger at him stealing her only daughter, shoved him off the cliff sending him falling to his death.
Megumi then returned to the city to find that the part of the city that was housing her clan and the Shirokami clan was in near ruin from the battle that had ensued between the two clans. This brought to Megumi's attention that there was nothing that she could do to stop the combat between the two clans. She had, however, noticed that something had changed inside of her. The death of Sai would bring horrible consequences on her and she did not wish for those consequences to effect Sora in anyway. She gave Sora to her sister and quickly fled the village so that she could protect her clan and her daughter. Our story begins like any other story would begin, with a single action that was made to shape the world.
Chapter 1: The New Age
Megumi's story was not over there however, twenty years later Iwagakure had heard news that there was a woman baring their headband attacking smaller villages using an army of what seemed like Ninja's. This brought an unfortunate turn to the village of Iwagakure so they sent out scouts to ensure that this was one of their ninjas. The scouts reported back in almost tatters several of them were dead, and only a few were able to come back and even they were near death. However the story was true, it was indeed one of their own ninjas, even worse the woman's identity was confirmed as none other then Megumi Nomaku.
The Tsuchikage came to visit the clan Nomaku and talked to the head, who was now Megumi's sister. They discussed Megumi's threat level and eventually the Tsuchikage had decided that her threat was to large to ignore. He called together the other Kage's and they had a meeting to decide that it was best that they protect the smaller villages and fight against Megumi as her threat was already large enough to attack and destroy the larger villages quite easily. So the five Shinobi villages for the first time came together in an alliance to combat the forces of Megumi Nomaku and her army of rouge ninjas. However something happened the the Tsuchikage did not expect...
Sora Nomaku had over heard him talking to her aunt, and through her own power she had stolen a load of secret scrolls from the Administration building and retreated from the city, killing several of the specialized guards as well. This angered the Tsuchikage and brought shame upon the Nomaku clan for no one knew the reason that Sora had betrayed them. The story of Sora Nomaku and the many other ninja's that would shape the world that everyone knew today had just begun with this single action by Sora Nomaku. Another story was well on its way to being made, the only question is... Where will you fit in this story?

That being said, a big shout out to one of my favorite basketball teams...The Boston Celtics! They had a HUGE win last night over the Miami Heat in the NBA Eastern Conference Finals, 101-91, with the Heat leading the series 2-1.
This is my Rajon Rondo shirt. It's actually more like a dress on me. I think I'll wear it tomorrow for game 4.

ELLEN GOLDBERG is a Miami-based author, writer, editor and photographer who for nearly 20 years was a planning and program professional for the Jewish Federations of Greater Miami and Tampa.
With an extensive background in print journalism (newspapers, magazines and specialty publications) and photography, Goldberg was a correspondent in India and Sri Lanka for The Christian Science Monitor for two years, during which time she interviewed His Holiness the Dalai Lama at his official residence in Dharamsala in northern India and covered the ethnic civil war in the island nation once known as Ceylon. In addition to the Monitor, her works have been published in The Boston Globe, The Tampa Tribune, St. Petersburg Times, and Hadassah and Arts of Asia magazines, among many others.
Goldberg's books include Kashrut, Caste and Kabbalah (2005) and The Last Jews of Cochin: Jewish Identity in Hindu India (1993), both of which she authored with Nathan Katz, and Ethnic Conflict in Buddhist Societies: Sri Lanka, Thailand and Burma (1988), which she edited with Katz.
As they do in her co-authored books, Goldberg's photographs illustrate Nathan Katz's award-winning book, Who Are the Jews of India?
"One of the greatest beauties of the book is the black-and-white photographs by Ellen Goldberg," reviewer Savithri de Tourreil wrote in the Journal of Religion and Culture. "All of Goldberg's photographs are splendid… they give the impression of timelessness. They not only enhance the quality of the book, they raise it to a whole new dimension of worth, beauty and significance."
Goldberg's photographs have appeared in one-woman and group exhibits including The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, B'nai B'rith Klutznick National Jewish Museum in Washington, DC, Judah L. Magnes Museum in Berkeley, CA, Florida International University, and the Jewish Museum of Florida-FIU.

According to the Mayans (so many people tell us), the world will end on December 21st. Here's how you can tell if the world has ended on the morning of the 22nd:
- You wake up with one hell of a hangover and think … "Hey, I didn't drink anything yesterday!"
- You look for your slippers on the floor and notice that your bed is gone … that the floor is gone … and that the ground is gone, too!
- People are running past your window. You live on the fifth floor.
- Some guy wearing a white sheet and wings on his back is playing a trumpet really loud.
- Your neighbor is making a frightful racket. When you go to complain, you find that his house has been replaced by a volcano.
- The sky is full of yellow spaceships marked "Vogon Demolition, Inc". For some reason they make you think of the number 42.
- The weather forecast predicts temperatures in the mid-2000's, with ash cloud cover and rather heavy wind.
- The authorities are loudly proclaiming that "The situation is fully under control, and the world has NOT ended!"
- Your house is swaying. When you look outside, you find it's because it is floating on the sea. You used to live far inland.
- A bunch of small, red fellows with horns and pointy tails are telling you to come along, because "The boss has an offer you *cannot* refuse!" You get a nasty feeling that the time you spent learning to play the harp was wasted.

Prolozone™ is a Prolotherapy technique developed by Frank Shallenberger, MD, that utilizes ozone gas, along with other therapeutic substances to stimulate healing and reduce pain in injured soft tissues and joints.
- Before you read more about ozone therapy, if you have questions about this article, ask now contact us.
Dr. Shallenberger describes it as a regenerative and pain relieving procedure that involves the proliferative principles of Prolotherapy, the cell membrane repolarizing principles of neural therapy, the stem cell stimulation of homeopathic therapy, and the metabolic principles of ozone therapy.
Therapeutic injections of ozone into soft tissue structures, such as muscles, tendons and ligaments as well as arthritic joints for the relief of pain has been utilized for decades in medical clinics around the world.
A 1989 study from the University of Bologna in Italy examined the effects of oxygen-ozone mixture (the so-called medical ozone) locally injected.
- 156 patients were treated and divided into 3 groups:
- post-traumatic knee disorders,
- Arthritis without marked bone deformities and
- Arthritis with marked bone deformities.
- In the first two groups optimal results were obtained while for the third other therapies were then added to stop the advancing degenerative process. In conclusion, knee joint disorders can very successfully be treated by means of oxygen-ozone mixture locally administered.1
In a study out of Iran, doctors at Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences suggested.
- Ozone is a pain blocker and has an antinociceptive effect (an agent that blocks nerve pain), that can be more effective and long-term than narcotic medications.2
Researchers in Italy and Canada have published a new study in the Journal of the Canadian Association of Radiologists in which they cite that in European trials and in a trans-Canadian clinical trial, ozone has been used successfully. In total over 50,000 patients have been treated safely. Ozone has a potent oxidizing power; it has been used for percutaneous intradiscal injection combined with oxygen at very low concentrations for 15 years in Europe.
The patients who can benefit the most are patients with back pain with or without radicular pain but without motor deficits, which have been non-respondsive to 4-6 weeks of conservative therapies. Its mechanism of action on the disc is mechanical (volume reduction by subtle dehydration of the nucleus pulposis) and anti-inflammatory.
The intradiscal ozone injection is performed with a thin needle (18-22 gauge) image guided by computed tomography or angiofluoroscopy and is usually complimented by periganglionic injection of corticosteroids and anesthetics.
This combination gives immediate pain relief and allows time for the ozone to act. It is a cost-effective procedure that presents a very low complication rate (0.1%). The radicular pain is resolved before the back pain does, as is seen with microdiscectomy. Peer-reviewed publications of large randomized trials, case series, and meta analysis from large samples of patients have demonstrated the procedure to be safe and effective in the short and the long terms, with benefits recognized up to 10 years after treatment.3

The San Francisco Bay Area is home to some of the most innovative companies on the planet. One of these companies is the TMS Health Solutions, founded by Ara Chackerian, who is a San Francisco native. Ara wanted to establish his own business, but he has no idea what kind of business he will be starting. He seeks the advice from his closest friends, and they told him that the best thing that he can do is to start a medical business focusing on health. For Ara Chackerian, the idea sounds good, so he decided to do more research about the world of medicine. He found out that businesses in the medical sector earn so much because of their increasing demand, and when he finally decided to build a related medical business, he searched for some tips online and stumbled upon an article talking about the transcranial magnetic stimulation. You can checkout californiablog.org for more details.
The treatment uses electromagnetic waves to treat mental disorders, including depression. Ara Chackerian spent a lot of his fortune to do more sophisticated and detailed research about the treatment option, and he found out a way on how to duplicate the treatment successfully. After he obtained the procedure on how to perform the transcranial magnetic stimulation treatment, he started to build his clinic and invited people with depression to try out his new technology. Some of the first people who have tried his treatment reported that the instance of depression hitting them went suddenly low. These testimonials from the first patients have been reported around the world, and it resulted in his clinic being visited frequently by people having problems with their mind.
According to linkedin, Ara Chackerian welcomed those who wanted to try out this procedure, and he showed the people how it is done. When going under a transcranial magnetic stimulation treatment, the head of the patient will be soaked in electromagnetic waves. These waves are responsible for changing the mood or the personality of a person, in just a short period. Many people who are having clear symptoms of depression have shifted to this new product, and most of them are saying that the results are true and the treatment is making them happy.

My children are my greatest inspiration. My joy. My life. My alarm clock...
They are the reason that I write, and they fill my books with fodder. All their jokes, one-liners, teasing, fears, joys...they are the reason that I write. But they are also the things my kids feed to me and keep my topics current. Which helps because I totally write YA (surprise surprise).
I remember what it was like to be a kid. How hard everything was and how little adults understood and respected us...I mean them...I mean...I guess I still have a tender spot when it comes to kids. Probably due to the fact that I never grew up. So to speak. I think teenagers totally rock. Always will. Because with everything they're entrusted with and expected to do, I think they deserve a little more respect. Even the trouble makers? Yes, it is my firm belief that respect itself breeds more respect.
At least that's why the kids in band love me (according to my daughter). Because I don't talk down to them or treat them like lower class citizens. Of course that doesn't mean I put up with their garbage, but I expect the best from adults as well. No double standards in this household, baby. But it also means I know how to play with them and remember what it feels like to be young (even though I've got a few years on them). Soul Caliber? Bring it on. Button mashing to the ultimate extreme! Singing out loud and totally off key? Well, actually I can sing very well...but do so very loudly, so yeah.
Remember what it was like to have the whole world at your finger tips? To shoot for any dream and have it be okay, because there was so much time and so much to learn?
I know it's hard when they fail and when they push back hard, but the best success I have seen is when you lead a child. Love a child. Not by forcing a child and thus losing their respect. If you lead by love it'll be a much softer ride. How do I know this? I have children. As well, I have lots of brothers. And a sister. And in my youth my brothers pushed back a time or two. Or three or four.... And the thing they said that brought them back and kept them from making even more mistakes?
That my parents loved them in spite of it all. And showed them. They felt like they were able to come back...without retribution. Or without it being held over their head. Forever.
So I write for children. Because of course I'm jealous of all the things I wasn't brave enough to do. And that my kids do daily...and DARE me to do. Like go back to school when I'm so much older. And write a book.
So here's to my children. I love you all so much!!!

I entered the corporate scene at a pivotal point in office communication technology. As an organisational psychologist it was a great opportunity to watch the impact technological change has upon people in a large organisation. The year was 1997 - the very point in time that most organisations lurched from the omnipresent fax machine into the brave new world of email (we called it 'electronic mail' back then). The fax machine burst onto the office scene years earlier with its seemingly magical ability to take a piece of paper and transmit it to anywhere in the world (provided the other fax wasn't engaged).
I had often wondered whether the fax machine was inspired by Willie Wonka's chocolate factory - where an enormous chocolate bar could be sent across the room to a television set, from whence it could be retrieved, albeit at a smaller scale than when it went in (interestingly this is a very similar premise to "The Biggest Loser"). But then I looked it up on wikipedia and found out the fax predates the telephone (the fax patent was lodged 30 years before the telephone - makes you wonder what they plugged the fax machine into before phone lines).
Work was much simpler prior to the fax machine. Prior to faxes a typical day in a large organisation involved waiting for the internal mail to arrive, opening the three envelopes that did arrive, dealing with the three issues raised by the internal mail, typing up responses, and then dropping these back into internal mail envelopes (perhaps the same ones that came to you) to then become someone else's problem.
The fax machine sped the whole process up, so problems could be distributed to others at any point during the day (again, provided the other fax machine wasn't engaged). You would simply queue up behind others, feed your page of problems into the machine, wait five minutes for the fax to connect and send, return to your desk, and then receive a call from the intended recipient to let you know that a blank page just turned up on their fax machine. You would then re-enter the queue for the fax, feed in the problem page again (face down this time), and your problems would travel along copper wires to become someone else's issue.
Then along came email - effectively a fax machine on speed (albeit it speed running on Windows 3.1.1, but there was the very promising 'turbo' button on the front of the computer). And so came the death of the fax machine... or so you would think. But they still seem to be hanging around offices - gradually turning yellow and gathering dust, but still there.
And so here comes today's challenge. I need you to gather two pieces of information - namely the number of people working on your floor, in your department or in your organisation, and the number of fax machines available to these people. The level at which you do this will depend on the size of your organisation and how "free range" you are allowed to be in your job before others miss you. A handy hint is to tell your manager that you've read about a new innovation index, and want to see how your organisation stacks up. That should confuse them long enough to buy the time you need.
Once you have this information, the PFII is relatively easy to calculate. Simply take the number of people and divide it by the number of fax machines available to the same people.

Apparently one of the most imaginative concept cars that never appeared in the Shanghai auto show this week not from Japan, Germany, France or America, but from local manufacturers China ... Geely.
Indeed this is an ultra-compact four-passenger car with two doors with a package of built-in three-wheeled scooter powered folding electricity that is stored in the back. When the scooter is in its dock, battery and electric motor on the car sharing to increase mileage when the car is running on all-electric mode whilst ensuring scooter batteries are always in full condition.
This vehicle was created to have two choices, one petrol-electric hybrid engine, the other equipped with electric drive. Geely is indeed regarded as one of the global automotive players due to their dynamic leadership of Li Shufu as Henry Ford called his Chinese.
Geely recently it has acquired Volvo, but the majority of new vehicles on display at the booth of Geely completely separate, which confirms that the company's future growth in China is sure to involve creativity and knowledge of their own markets.
With the existence of various problems such as energy crisis, urban congestion and air pollution in China to make vehicles that are named Geely McCar will surely diproduski mass and is believed to be the best-selling vehicle in the local market.
McCar own name is short for 'Magic Car'. This vehicle is a car that offers a second vehicle in a single integrated package. The concept vehicle in the vehicle had previously been disosorkan by General Motors (GM) through the Flextreme Concept, 2007, which integrate them in the back of a Segway.
In addition to GM, a similar concept has also been offered by Honda through the vehicle battery 2009 with EV-N-wheeled personal mobility single U3-X embedded into the car door. Suzuki also did not want to miss with Pixy + SSC Concept 2007.
Geely McCar electrically seemed perfect for the environment. He is equipped with a capacity of 12 kWh battery capable of providing power cruising speed of 150 km with a maximum of up to more than 83 km / hour.
As for McCar hybrid model, equipped only 8 kWh battery capacity to run only on electric mode as far as 50 km. However, the gasoline engine can be used to reach a distance of 600 km.
With this electric scooter in it, then package these vehicles have an additional distance of about 29 km longer time has been parked McCar ... amazing ... It turns out that technological developments in the country already sejau Bamboo Curtain.

What is this page?
This is a collection guide. It is a description of archival material held in the Special Collections Division,
J.Y. Joyner Library, East Carolina University. The materials described here are physically available in our
reading room. None of the original documents in this collection are digitally available online at this time.
Paul T. Ricks Papers includes material related to the education field trip program at East Carolina Teachers College from 1935 through 1941. The collection includes legal documents and correspondence related to Ricks Tours including an applications by Ricks Tours for certificates of public convenience and necessity and a common carrier application; list of tours; administrative paperwork including applications for membership in ECTC study tours and correspondence arranging tour bookings; and newspaper clippings, tour iteneraries, advertisements, and photographs from the tours.
In 1935 the East Carolina Teachers College faculty, at the behest of President Meadows, initiated the Educational Field Trips Committee to coordinate plans for a travel course. The committee obtained the services of Paul T. Ricks, an operator of a local bus route, as tour director. The tours provided three hours of credit in geography, American literature, and hsitory, as well as satisfying requirements for college electives or as renewal credits for teacher certification.
Three separate tours were operated the first summer and the initial tour included more than a hundred students. The follow years the tour schedule was expanded to include trips through the Southwest and Mexico as well as one to Florida, which included a side cruise to Cuba. Ricks Tours became a mainstay of ECTC's summer program until wartime travel restrictions brought them to an end in 1941.
The collection is open to the public without restrictions.

Are you passionate about aviation safety? Since 1950, the AOPA Air Safety Institute has served all pilots and aviation enthusiasts—not just AOPA members—by providing safety education, research, and data analysis. We believe that Air Safety Institute pilots are safer pilots, so we want to make sure that you and your pilot friends are using our free safety programs.
We also like to ask for your help in reaching others, who for one reason or another don't consume safety information, but would benefit from being made aware of its availability and tapping into it. We call this initiative the "find one, bring one" campaign and hope you will be on board to help us save lives and reduce airplane accidents.
To get started, here are the Air Safety Institute's Top 10 safety products in 2017. Share, enjoy, and fly safely!
Accident Case Study: Single Point Failure. A vacuum pump failure on a sunny day is no big deal, but in instrument meteorological conditions—and especially without backup instrumentation—it's a serious emergency. This Accident Case Study reviews a flight situation for which the pilot was ill prepared. Learn how you can do better, and share the video with others so they too can learn from the mistakes that were made.
Safety Tip videos. These short clips provide easy-to-remember techniques for flying safely. Does your landing spot wander in the windshield on short final? Aiming Point can fix that. The 4 Ws of Communication help you broadcast clearly when keying the mic. Box the Controls shows a clever and efficient way to check that flight controls operate as they should. Also, Taxi Controls explores proper control placements to help you navigate taxiways when the winds kick up.
There I was… podcast series. Tune into unpredictable flying dilemmas when you hop into the cockpit with our podcast series, which honors the hangar-flying tradition of sharing experience and knowledge. From weather problems to airplane emergencies, skilled pilots share how they evaluated their predicaments and took action.
In-person seminars. Feed your flying passion with captivating aviation safety seminars offered throughout the United States. Find your favorite location in the online schedule. Symbols identify whether the seminar is held at an aviation-themed location or at an airport or both. Participation qualifies for the safety seminar portion of the FAA Wings program.
New Ask ATC series. How do you approach an air traffic controller who rattles off instructions so fast you don't understand? Fast Talkers explains. Traffic Alerts comes to the rescue if you need help requesting traffic advisories, while Bothering ATC debunks the notion that talking to flights squawking 1200 is an inconvenience for ATC. Calling Up a Busy Controller offers VFR pilots advice on the most important thing to tell ATC, and Flight Following vs. Flight Plan explains the difference between the two VFR services.
Stall and Spin Accidents: Keep the Wings Flying. While aerobatic training can help with unusual attitude recovery, it is unlikely that it will help pilots recover from an inadvertent spin in the traffic pattern. This study explores accidents in GA aircraft that occurred in a 15-year period ending in 2014. Find out where fatal stalls are more likely to occur—it may surprise you.
Safety quizzes. Did you know that the Air Safety Institute has updated its popular 10-question quizzes and produced them in a mobile-friendly format? Take on the Air Safety Institute quizmaster and test your VFR and IFR skills on your phone or tablet, anytime and anywhere.
Medical Self-Assessment: A Pilot's Guide to Flying Healthy online course. When it comes to your health and flying, it pays off to be in charge. How? First, get a medical checkup—regularly. Then, between doctor visits, take stock of your well being, using the tools in this course. Get a better grasp of aeromedical matters and physiology—including risk factors of significant medical conditions and how these affect your ability to fly, and fly safely. This course qualifies for the FAA's BasicMed alternative to medical certification.
Online Flight Instructor Refresher Course. Learn with the best when you sign up for the most comprehensive FAA-approved CFI renewal program (cost $124). If you're a flight instructor, aspiring to become one, or interested in advancing your aviation skills, you'll enjoy this popular course, which has been updated with fresh content and a new design.
CFI to CFI newsletter. No need to be a CFI or AOPA member, but you must subscribe to receive this free quarterly newsletter. Trade flight-training tips, and explore the challenges and opportunities flight instructors face.
The Air Safety Institute has you covered—from flight planning to proficiency training. Next to courses, videos, quizzes, and digital and online publications, the institute also produces the AOPA Fly-In procedure videos and the Joseph T. Nall report.
These safety programs were made possible by generous contributions to the AOPA Foundation from pilots like you. The AOPA Air Safety Institute thanks you.

Holland's Cycle Track Network
Discovery tours in Holland by bike
In many regions, the beauty of the landscape can best be discovered by bike. But hardly any countries have a network of trails as well developed as the one in the Netherlands. The routes lead through the green, polder region, across drainage dykes, through forests and along small creeks. You can ride your bicycle totally enveloped by nature and really experience the prettiest sides of the Netherlands. On your bike tours through the countryside, you'll encounter lovely areas of shore-land with pollarded willows, wooden bridges over small canals, colourful tulip and vegetable fields and large bird and waterfowl populations. What's more, the next village is never usually far away.
The digging of drainage dykes and canal structures have altered the appearance of the landscape and made it possible to cultivate land which flooded frequently in the past. Many of these wetland environments are preserved today as protected nature reserves and areas of conservation. But our bike tours also introduce you to the country's cultural treasures - historic towns, fascinating museums and modern architecture. Or why not experience Holland by boat from the water? Relax on the afterdeck as you head for the next port where you you can look forward to setting out on your next bike tour.
In Holland, bikes are looked upon as a means of transport that's on a par with cars and the infrastructure for cyclists is excellent. It might sound a bit far-fetched in terms of a claim, but it's not - Holland is flat and not very large, so it is very possible. Bikes are used by everyone right from all professions and backgrounds, right across the country and many generations of the royal family even have been more than happy about being spotted on their bikes.
The Dutch cycle traffic policy promotes using the bike not only for leisure tourism and recreational cycling, but also for everyone's daily commute to work, to school or to do the shopping. The quality of cycle paths is therefore consistently very high. Most paths have practically no incline and are paved or cobbled: there are hardly any mud or rubble tracks to be found either. Finding your way around by bike is particularly easy too in the Netherlands.
Bike trails & directional signs in Holland
In the Netherlands, a standardised system developed for cycle path signs has been introduced almost right across the entire country. Although there are still many regional themed tours, the network of waymarked "Knooppunten" (junctions) marked with standardised signs has been in place for a few years now. For this reason, it's very easy to follow the routes on our bike tours in Holland.
Intersections and junctions are signposted at relatively frequent intervals by these so-called junctions (indicated both on cycle maps as well as by the roadside). The stages between the junctions are provided with signs in both directions, so that you can simply follow the signs in the direction of the next junction you need. This junction system has been developed primarily for cyclists who would like to cycle on scenic routes in day rides. With a bike map to hand, shortening a route or making a detour to visit other nearby places which may have aroused your curiosity is straightforward enough too. On nearly all our bike tours in Holland, you are given a copy of the bike map showing the junctions so you can find your way around really easily.
The long-distance cycle paths - called LF Routes ('landelijke fietsrouten') - are partly identical to the junction bike rides, but were originally conceived as long-distance paths for multi-day rides. As well as the sign for the junction network and the LF Routes, direct connections between two towns are marked by red and white signs. These connections often consist of cycle paths which run along roads. although they are still separate cycling tours and cycle routes.
Confused? Don't be. You'll quickly spot the green and white signs from a distance en route as you head out on your bike tour, and these will show you the way, even if they are installed on a low wooden post. A new online reporting system for missing signs ('bordjes') supports helping hands, most of whom are volunteers, in maintaining the directional signs and cycle paths, so that a complete sign system can be found nearly everywhere.
You'll be perfectly equipped for bike tours in Holland with just normal, comfortable sportswear. However, a wind- and waterproof jacket is a must to have with you, as short, intense rain showers are quite likely whatever the season. Don't worry though, because there are many bike-friendly cafés along the way, where you can dive in, take a break and enjoy a great Dutch coffee if or when it rains. Wearing a bike helmet is generally recommended on our bike tours.

A modified NSGA-II solution for a new multi-objective hub maximal covering problem under uncertain shipments

Journal of Industrial Engineering International
, Volume 10, Issue 4, pp 185–197
First Online: 30 July 2014Received: 12 October 2013Accepted: 30 June 2014
Hubs are centers for collection, rearrangement, and redistribution of commodities in transportation networks. In this paper, non-linear multi-objective formulations for single and multiple allocation hub maximal covering problems as well as the linearized versions are proposed. The formulations substantially mitigate complexity of the existing models due to the fewer number of constraints and variables. Also, uncertain shipments are studied in the context of hub maximal covering problems. In many real-world applications, any link on the path from origin to destination may fail to work due to disruption. Therefore, in the proposed bi-objective model, maximizing safety of the weakest path in the network is considered as the second objective together with the traditional maximum coverage goal. Furthermore, to solve the bi-objective model, a modified version of NSGA-II with a new dynamic immigration operator is developed in which the accurate number of immigrants depends on the results of the other two common NSGA-II operators, i.e. mutation and crossover. Besides validating proposed models, computational results confirm a better performance of modified NSGA-II versus traditional one.

The Latino Nineteenth Century
384 pages
November, 2016
Subjects:Latina/o StudiesAmerican StudiesAmerican Studies
Part of the America and the Long 19th Century series
"The nineteenth-century––in the context of the extraordinary triangle presented here of Latina and Latino writers and intellectuals in the United States, Latin America, and the transatlantic––may come to us in fragments, but what a marvel it is to bring together this dazzling constellation of scholars who highlight the historical dimensions of 'the Latino/a' and speak to the concurrent traditions, canons, moments, and tensions that have long been neglected and overlooked. Excitement for The Latino Nineteenth Century will have no bounds: this is sure to become a treasured volume."
—Claudia Milian, author of Latining America: Black-Brown Passages and the Coloring of Latino/a Studies
"The collection's expansion of American literary history is also evident in the inclusion of Central American textualities, which have been overlooked in most fields of study. In sum, the 15 essays Lazo and Aleman bring together offer new frameworks to better understand and examine 19th-century Latina/o hemispheric movements."

I am graduating Loughborough University this upcoming year with the Bachelor in Design Ergonomics (expected 2.1), and I am thrilled to see what exciting professional opportunities are ahead.
I am not just an industrial or product designer. Next to that, I have in depth knowledge of human-factors and I specialise in making beautiful products that work seamlessly, intuitively and in a user-friendly manner.
Notes to self, my design process..
DEFINE the problem
What solution can be designed without a problem to drive it?
Problems can be found everywhere.. Some are very obvious and are presented to you on a plate, for some you may be searching for months, whilst they are hiding just at the tip of your nose, and some you can't find, simply because they aren't your problems.
Usually the less you look for them, the easier you find them.
Important though.. If you are lucky enough to have found your problem, try to have a look at it from the user's perspective.
People born blind have different needs to those blindfolded.
Don't be blind, ask.
COLLECT information
Yay - my favourite! The only time I have a legitimate reason to make my friends my guinea pigs.
On a serious note, if my goal is to design a genuinely useful, functioning product, I believe it is essential to understand not only who I am designing the product for, but also why is the problem there on the first place?
Note to self..
Essential things to research:
- User - who is your persona
- Market - there are 7.5 billion people in the world, someone is likely to have designed it already
- Problem - there are 7.5 billion people in the world, save your time, read existing literature on this topic
- List everything your problem can do, even if it won't do it
Some opportunities are not apparent, Steve Jobs once said - " a lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them."
BRAINSTORM & ANALYSE ideas
If you still don't have ideas oozing out.. did you do your research?
If you do.. Get them down!
Also what use are your sketches if you yourself can't remember what they are? Make yourself a favour, put some notes down too.
I personally like walls, there is something about a big wall that makes me want to cover it with sticky notes.. it is also less likely it will be covered in coffee cup stains, as it can prove to be quite challenging to place your cup on the wall.
DEVELOP solutions
I believe there cannot be a specific strategy to move the design from the ideation stage to the solution. The closest system that one can use if jumping between 3 stages: ideating, prototyping and analysing.
Although confusing, this stage helps to outline issues associated with a particular design and helps develop better, more details and more tailored designs.
This stage helps you move on from the concept shape development, to potentially viable, functional design.
Collect FEEDBACK and REDESIGN
Essential step for any design project. Only through user testing can you find out if your product is in fact useful or not. No theoretical research can guarantee you that the user will interact with the product the way you expect them to and provide you with the unique, useful insights on your design.
Watching how people interact with the product is likely to influence and drive your redesign process. I have previously found that I could analyse the patterns of interaction between the test participants to redesign the product and make use of these behaviours.
If you are designing for a user, why not design with the user?
It is unlikely that a singe user testing will be sufficient to develop the final product, it may take several repetitions of the product to get to the desired outcome.
FINALISE the design
For me, this normally means I can go to town with high fidelity prototyping, both physical and computer generated, submerge myself into developing presentation boards and add detail.
I am not a perfectionist, I agree that "the principal mark of genius is not perfection, but originality" - Arthur Koester. That is not to say that I am not passionate about the detail, on contrary, I often find myself completely absorbed in a task.
I would personally argue that there is no end to the process of design, instead each design must be evaluated and iterated.
I am an experienced designer with passion in user-centred and user-experience design.
I am skilled in Adobe Creative Suit, Computer Aided Design and Manufacture, Ergonomics and Graphic Design.
Design professional with a Bachelor of Science (graduating 2018) focused in Design Ergonomics from Loughborough University.

SHEFFIELD manufacturers can seed a new industrial revolution if they rediscover the vision of the steel entrepreneurs of old,
Juergen Maier, chief executive of Siemens UK, said business conditions were better than they had been for decades. But bosses had to take the 'next step' and be bolder and export, invest, innovate and educate for the long term.
The 379th Cutlers' Feast was held at the opulent Cutlers' Hall in Sheffield last night. The white tie event, billed as the most important business dinner north of London, was attended by hundreds of politicians and representatives from industry, the civil service, the military, City of London livery companies and freemen of the Company of Cutlers.
Mr Maier, the principal guest, questioned whether firms were 'global enough' in their thinking, after hearing complaints about EU regulations.
He added: "You can't be part of the EU or global trading without significant regulation. So isn't it better to lead on defining that regulation, rather than leave it up to someone else?"
A 2012 survey showed 94 per cent of companies didn't export, he added.
"Is that the level of ambition we want? And are we investing enough in skills and innovation to change that?
"We at Siemens are great advocates of skills – like the University Technical College here in Sheffield which we are supporting and the 500 apprentices that we have in training up and down the country."

The Department of Immigration and Border Protection's chief information officer Randall Brugeaud is exiting the role, leaving the door open for a successor to tackle one of the biggest transformations in the agency's history.
Brugeaud joined the merged Immigration and Border Protection just prior to his former Customs agency being migrated and abolished in mid-2015.
While first arriving in a transformation position, he quickly rose to the CIO role when his predecessor Matthew Yannopoulos left to become CIO at the Health department.
The executive will end his two-year stint in the job in the midst of a massive program of work to streamline the complex and sprawling IT environment that resulted from Immigration's Customs merger.
A department spokesperson declined to comment on Brugeaud's next moves.
Update: Brugeaud will take on a deputy statistician role leading transformation at the Bureau of Statistics. Read more here.
Whoever takes on his role will need to be a "strong leader with personal presence who excels in leading people through change", according to the agency.
"You will take the lead in ensuring that front-line immigration, citizenship, travel, cargo and intelligence activities are supported by client-facing systems that are robust and evolve with the needs of the department and the Australian government," Immigration's job ad states.
"You will be strategic and innovative in focus, forward-thinking, and resilient in working in fast-paced environments. You will have experience in managing IT services for a large and complex organisation using a variety of technologies as well as demonstrated knowledge of future global trends for business and IT. "
Submissions close on July 31.
Immigration and Customs had made 'completely opposite' decisions on almost all major aspects of their separate IT environments.
When they came together the agencies had more than 500 business and supporting systems, over 850 systems interfaces and services, around 750 databases, 20,000 desktops, and 3500 mobile devices among thousands of servers and multiple data centres.
Brugeaud and team have made headway in simplifying the merged environments, but still have a long way to go.
His successor will also take on a ten-year technology plan that paints a lofty vision of where Immigration wants its IT environment to be in the 2020s and beyond.
The strategy - released earlier this year - will see Immigration completely rearchitect its IT environment towards self-contained, adaptable systems propped up by common reusable services and cloud-based infrastructure.
The agency's goal is to become a world leader in border technology.
It has already begun work on its multi-billion-dollar overhaul of Australia's visa processing platform, as well as its 'zero-touch' border processing transformation, which will see it replace its fleet of smartgates in favour of an automated border control solution, and abolish the incoming passenger card and automate the exit marshalling process.
Immigration was handed $95.4 million in this year's federal budget to improve its storage and processing of biometric data and introduce new technologies for processing traveller visas, on top of the $99.2 million it was given last year to build a new visa risk assessment capability.

RE: Rec Adult
As an assistant referee, if I am unsure which team caused the ball to cross the touch line or goal line, should I raise the flag straight up and hold that position regardless as opposed to signalling for throw in, goal kick or corner kick?
Hi Ed Yes the AR should raise the flag straight up to signal that the ball has gone out of play and re-enters immediately. The AR should then make eye contact with the CR and he will probably have a good idea of what the decision should be. If the CR points the direction of the throw in simply follow his signal. In the case of the ball going over the goal line with it re-entering immediately again the flag goes up, the AR make eye contact and follow the CR's signal either by pointing to the corner flag or for the goal kick. If you want to give the CR an indication of who touched the ball last when there is no doubt that the ball is out of play the AR can put the flag in the hand at waist level that he feels is the direction the TI should be awarded and then raise it if the CR agrees with that.
When the ball clearly has gone out of play, there is no need for a flag. Instead, give a hard stare at the referee. This indicates 'I have no clue.' Then, follow the referee's lead. If the referee gives no direction (her eyes says 'me neither'), the assistant referee should then signal direction. My preference, when we have no clue, is to indicate a throw-in for the defense.The time for a flag straight up is when the ball has left and then immediately reentered the field of play. The flag up indicates "stop play!" Then, use eye contact as discussed above.
Good advice given above. Remember, in most cases there is really no rush or need to signal direction quickly (primary exception when the ball goes out then back in quickly in which case the straight up flag is appropriate). In most cases there is PLENTY of time to connect with the referee and 'work things out'. It is most often when we rush that we create problems for ourselves as referees. All the best,

A POLICE boss has called for urgent action to reduce the number of women dying from drug overdoses in North Wales.
Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner Ann Griffith spoke out after hearing that 19 women died from overdoses in just two years.
Ms Griffith says this is despite figures showing fewer women are actually using drugs. She said: "It's clear to me that drug use in women is different to the same issue with men.
"It seems, in women, the issue is often quite closely related to early trauma and domestic abuse, which can lead to a cycle of drug abuse."
Ms Griffith also believes accessing help with addiction is more difficult for women and that can result in even more deaths. She added: "The UK life expectancy for women is now as high as 83.
"In female drug users, it's as low as 49 and we have to go all the way back to 1901 to find a time when the mortality rate for women was that low.
"Women dependent on drugs isn't just a problem we are finding in urban areas. It affects rural villages too."
She added: "Providing a clean and safe place for drug users where they can also access help would be a step in the right direction and would help reduce deaths.
"Without a co-ordinated multi-agency response to what is a crisis will only result in more and more families being destroyed and more and more children losing their mums."

When we purchased this house – our first home – I was in love. The cottage was quaint, charming and quirky. It needs a little renovating, sure. But we'll put in the love and make it work.
Fast forward eighteeen months, and the cracks are starting to show. Literally. This cottage is old. It is tired. It has been through a very poor, dodgy renovation with substandard materials. What looked fine on the surface (not to mention the inspector's report) is starting to deteriorate underneath. The 'recently renovated' bathroom is not waterproof, at all. The house is basically on the ground, the floors are sloped and the walls are warped. The roof joins (from old cottage to renovated rooms) in ways that doesn't drain efficiently, so the rain comes through into the house.
I could go on.
Where do you start? How do you finance such a massive job, with a mortgage and one income? On the other hand – how do you raise three kids, with another on the way, in a house that is quite literally falling apart?
I honestly don't know. We have to demolish at least the removated half of the house, and rebuilding the original cottage may not be worth the cost. I adore the high ceilings and old touches, but it's such a massive job at a massive price. I get a headache just thinking about this.
Why is being an adult so complicated?
In the meantime I need to pour myself into my study and writing so that I might be able to help provide financially one of these days.
Stay tuned, I guess.
Any advice on either renovating homes or writing for a career is most definitely welcome.

The first piece of advice you get when you're the parent of a teen with a social media presence is "make sure you friend them on Facebook." I know this because I've heard it dozens of times. I've even said it myself to other parents. It's solid wisdom for the social media age. Unless, of course, you apply it to yourself when your 73-year-old mother sends you a friend request.
It's not uncommon these days to have three generations of a family connected via Facebook. And there's something wonderful about that! But there's a downside too, of course (because if there's one thing I've learned about social media it's that there's always a downside).
There's no photo attached to my mom's account, just Facebook's default grayed-out silhouette. I notice she has fifteen friends already (ten of whom are also default gray—this could be what they have in common!)
I have no choice but to follow her. Because she will hound me relentlessly if I don't.
This puts a whole new spin on my previously sound advice about friending your teens.
For me, it's still a largely academic exercise. My oldest child just turned fourteen, and doesn't yet have a Facebook account. So until now I haven't had to take my own advice. But having my own mother as a "friend" has changed my outlook on being friends with my children. In fact, my new strategy is to hover silently in the background of their Facebook feeds—lurking. Because I'm wary now of doing to my teenage daughter what my mother does to me: leave a comment on every single thing I post. My mother loves me desperately, you see, and wants everyone to know how terribly proud she is of me. She's killing me with kindness.
I've got loads of friends in this same Facebook sandwich—stuck in between their parents and their kids. More than one of them has parents on the opposing end of the political spectrum, who consistently post things that make those friends cringe. One friend's mom got ahold of a scanner and posted dozens of embarrassing childhood photos.
Oversharing from parents ("This is us at our salsa-dancing class!") is also a common theme. Also, when you tell your parents that they're giving you TMI, it's just another acronym you'll have to explain. Sigh.
I recently read an article that took this idea to its logical conclusion. Parents today are getting so involved in their children's lives that the involvement itself is starting to change the outcome.
80% of adults say they've seen parents put their attempts to get the perfect photo ahead of their child's enjoyment of an event, according to a recent survey. One mother of a 3-year old child told researchers, "I disciplined my son and he threw a tantrum that I thought was so funny that I disciplined him again just so I could video it. After uploading it on Instagram I thought, 'What did I just do?'" Another parent snapped photos of a crying child who had lost a tooth rather than console him. Other admissions involve making children recreate happy "spontaneous" moments for the camera.
Social media is a new development for everyone, even grown-ups. So we have to learn our lessons now, right alongside our kids. Learning not to over-share, keeping respectful boundaries about what to post and what to keep to yourself, and respecting other people's privacy—these are lessons we all need to practice.
Now that I've been subjected to parental involvement in my own social media life, I have no choice but to look at it from a different angle. My daughter Claire isn't on Facebook, yet, but I realized that hasn't stopped me from posting photos of her on my wall. Mostly I get her approval before I post—but not always. Two years ago when we moved from Maryland to Massachusetts, I snapped a photo of my family as we arrived at the Boston airport for a house-hunting trip. The photo so perfectly summed up our whole family's attitude toward the impending move that I posted it, even knowing Claire would likely not approve.
I didn't do this to improve my social standing or to see how many likes I could collect. I was sharing a difficult moment with my far-flung friends, in the hope that the ones who'd been through a similar experience—having to move a middle-schooler across state lines—would relate, and maybe even share my pain. But the point is that I didn't ask my child if I could share a photo of her, one that she might have objected to. And I should have.
Lessons learned
This time around I did things differently. I showed her this blog post and asked permission to share it. Two years has given her the emotional distance not only to tell me I could use the photo, but to laugh at it herself. She went on to talk about how much she likes it here now. Which brings me around pretty nicely to the upside of social media. Claire still has friends back in Maryland, and sees some of them weekly via Instagram or FaceTime. It's a bright-side I can't ignore because it's made my daughter's life demonstrably better. Social media has given her something that no amount of long-distance phone calling could have—a steady face-to-face connection with faraway friends.
One last thing
As I was getting ready to publish this post it occurred to me it would almost certainly be shared on Facebook. Which would mean my mom would see it. Having learned my lesson, I gave her a call in advance. I told her what I was doing and why. Luckily, she laughed. Her lack of a profile picture, she said, just might be on purpose. "Maybe us old folks don't want everyone to see us old and wrinkly." She also pointed out how much she enjoys the closer connection she has with her grown children and grandchildren because of Facebook.
And so it all came full circle. From now on I will ask my kids before I post photos of them. From now on I will make sure I'm not letting my desire to document their lives get in the way of enjoying the moment. From now on I will do unto my daughter as I would have my mother do unto me (at least when it comes to Facebook.)
And as a bonus, my mom has promised to lurk a little more and comment a little less. Proving that when you open up a conversation with people, good things happen. That's a piece of advice I can get behind.

9 Lessons Learned: Businesses
Things You Must Factor In When Hiring Exterior Painters When it comes to home improvement jobs which are nearly impossible to perform do-it-yourself style, exterior painting must be one of those in the list. You see, the complexity, difficulty, and tendency to make costly and irreversible mistakes are main reasons why you shouldn't doing it without a professional's help. You shouldn't forget the fact that the objective of having your exterior painted is to increase your home's value or improve its curb appeal, both of which cannot be possibly achieved if you end up with a botched DIY job. Therefore, you really don't have any other choice but to hire painting contractors. But you should remind yourself that in hiring an exterior house painter, you don't just pick from a list and go. There are several questions you first should ask and many factors to consider. Hiring Established Pros
The Path To Finding Better Services
You can't settle for anything less than exterior painting professionals. Know that practically every home improvement contractor out there will confidently say they can handle all sorts of residential painting job. However, there is no guarantee they can provide you the satisfactory result you want. It's actually easy to figure out if you're hiring a pro; all you need to do is ask for proof of license, bond, and liability insurance.
The Beginners Guide To Painters (From Step 1)
Have a Painting Job at the Right Moment After making sure that you're only hiring professionals for an exterior painting job, you also must determine if it actually is the right time to have an exterior painting project. For any kind of painting job, it is vital that the weather is dry and sunny, provided you want to come up with the best result. So, if you see that your exterior indeed already needs a new paint job, do you take the risk of having it in winter? Some painting contractors will tell you confidently that they can do the job regardless of the season or weather, but you will have to talk to them about it and figure out on your own if their assurances of producing a successful output is convincing enough for you. Project Cost Of course, your budget will definitely come into play as well. There have been countless cases in which after getting quotations from multiple painting contractors, homeowners eventually decided to postpone or cancel the project because they underestimated the cost. So, what we're trying to suggest here is that you should first have at least some idea on how much the project will cost so that you can prepare for it, even if you still haven't obtained multiple estimates. Finally, once you make a comparison of the quotes provided to you, don't get fooled by very low bids because in the end, you might be forced to hire another painting contractor to cover the failed project.
