Health Body, Healthy Mind
How are you today?
No, really, how are YOU today? If you are sick, tired, or achy you're more likely to slap me than answer the question. If you're stressed or in an emotionally tough situation, you might have noticed these symptoms getting worse. Your body and mind are as connected as your fingers to your hands, but it is easy to forget how integrated they are. If you're feeling down, your body feels it; if you're rested, you're more likely to be cheerful, et cetera, et cetera.
Every decision we make and every situation we come across affects us. It just makes sense. But we can do little things to help that part of our mood that we can control. Afterall, who doesn't like feeling at their best?
Baby Steps
More than a car, our bodies are our only truly reliable form of transportation and just as an unleaded car does not run well on diesel, our bodies do not run well on sugar, starches, and fat. This article titled, "Taking Baby Steps Can Help You As an Adult, Too" talks about taking baby steps to integrate the things that help bodies feel their best.
Yes, we all grew up listening to the health teacher at school telling us to eat our fruits and veggies and to get plenty of sleep but how well did we pay attention? The 2010 Health report from the CDC suggest not very well. I learned first hand not too long ago how important it is to keep everything working as it should.
I am not trying to preach- I know these things are true from my own personal experience. About a month ago, I was hit with a bad upper respiratory infection, borderline pneumonia. At the time, I was just starting a new job, dealing with unreliable childcare, living on coffee and doughnuts, not getting enough sleep, and certainly not exercising.
Stress + Bad habits = Sickness
Simply put, after about a month of constant stressors, my body had had enough. I had done practically everything I could have done to set myself up to fall. And I did. Not only was I down for the count from the respiratory infection but I also had a gnarly UTI, my whole body was out of whack, I had gained weight and I felt depressed and disorganized.
It was then that I really began to pay attention to how much everything affects everything else. My body only works as well as I treat it. Ever since, health has been on my mind- not as a pretentious healthnut but as someone whose work, life, and family are important to her. When I was sick and feeling depressed, my work suffered, I missed out on happy moments, and most of all, I could not be the wife and mother I wanted to be.
It's In Your Hands
We may not always be able to control the events of the day or the many troubles that plague our minds but we can make sure they do not get worse by making simple decisions about how we keep our bodies fueled and working properly. We are not the only one's who have taken on the issue of healthy living but navigating the way to a healthy lifestyle can be daunting.
Fortunately, there are articles on the web that can help. I did a bit of research before writing this article and compiled a list of publications that are clear, relevant, and interesting (at least to me 😛 ). Here they are:
Will and apple a day keep the doctor away?
Dietary fiber: Essential for a healthy diet <—-Definitely read this one!
13 Healthy Habits to Improve Your Life <—- Another good one. From WebMD
Mind and Body <—- This totally ties in to my experience!

Stages of Recovery can be Emotional for TBI
From Dr. Glen Johnson, Clinical Neuropsychologist and author of The TBI Guide, this article gives valuable insight into the world of traumatic brain injury
We are all different. We all have different family situations, different jobs, different strengths, and different weaknesses. Despite all these differences, there are a number of very common emotional stages that people with a head injury go through. This is based upon my own experience treating patients, but many investigators note similar findings.
Confusion and Agitation
The first phase that I see people going through is a confusion/agitation phase. This can last minutes or it can last for months. I've had people get in a car accident and be somewhat dazed for a few minutes, but then direct traffic around their car. Others had been brought into the hospital in a coma requiring intensive medical efforts. When they wake up, they may go through the confusion/agitation phase. In the hospital setting, this is very difficult for family members. Someone who is very meek and mild, for example, can be physically aggressive. They may punch the nurses, or swear and curse at family members. It's very frightening for family members, and it feels like it is going to last forever. For 99% of the patients that I've worked with, this confusion/agitation phase goes away. It may take a while, but people eventually come out of it.

As they become more and more clothed there is a sense of climax, until the parents come home from shopping. They are, of course, nude, and they cover their youngest son's eyes from the obscenity before them. The second spot shows a romantic Romeo and Juliet story of two blow-up dolls in love, until the man doll is killed in an accident, and the grief-stricken woman doll takes her own life. Tragic. In the final spot, two pairs of jeans fall in love and leave their owners pantless in the middle of downtown, as they make a public display of their affection.

text: Goodreads Giveaway Follow-up 10. March 2012 My Novels, Giveaways (0) It's been 30 days since I revved up two Goodreads giveaways—one for The Five Elements and another for The Hall of the Wood—and that's it. We're done. The lucky winners have been selected and now I'm busy signing books and stuffing and licking envelopes (or peeling away the cover strips). All told, 795 people entered to win a copy of The Five Elements and 799 people went for The Hall of the Wood. I'm sure there was plenty of overlap there. The end goal in doing these giveaways is twofold: to get some more people to read my books and to hopefully get some more reviews. I can control the former (somewhat), but can't do much about the latter. I think I read somewhere that authors get roughly a 40% return on giveaways. At 5 books going out for each title, I hope to get at least 2 new reviews for each novel. Couple of Q&A points: 1.) Would I do another giveaway? Maybe. A lot of Goodreads members added the novels to their TBR lists. This is good. But the value of each giveaway can really only be told if and when sales go up or more reviews materialize. I'd definitely consider another giveaway as a vehicle for raising interest in the next book in The Alchemancer series when that next book is ready to go. 2.) Did the giveaway hurt existing sales? No idea. It seems like it did, but I've only been comprehensively tracking sales since late January, and these giveaways ran through most of February. If sales begin to creep back up to what I was seeing pre-giveaway, I'll have some idea. Time will tell. 3.) Wouldn't you rather give away eBook copies? Yes. But Goodreads requires print copies, so that's that. 4.) A lot of readers clicked on my Goodreads ads throughout the giveaway periods. It helped that each ad has a "Enter for a chance to win a copy" line right on it: Do I think people will continue to click on them? I hope so. Initial results this morning seem to show they are—the number of readers adding The Five Elements has gone up by a handful just this morning. Let's hope some readers become advocates and spread the word. OK, that's enough of that. I feel like I'm talking to myself. I'd be remiss if I didn't thank everyone who entered and especially those on Twitter and elsewhere who helped spread the word. Thanks! I'm eager to see what the 10 lucky readers think. Until then, it's back to writing.

Around 20 Anarchists were living in an abandoned mansion in Belgravia, UK "to bring attention to inequality". They spray painted the beautiful walls with graffiti.
Some guys using the Roman Salute (Nazis?) came and smashed windows at the mansion and bricks, bottles and poles were thrown at the building.
The anarchists called the police! Aren't anarchists anti-government?
And now the anarchists will be evicted from the mansion.
I love a happy ending!

I wrote Disassociation, the first of many books that I intend to write, when I was nineteen and twenty. I was almost twenty when I started it. I had moved to Victoria to live with my dad for two months. When I lived there I created the plot and wrote at the same time. When I left Victoria to see my cousin Merranda who later passed away at fifteen (I dedicated the book to her), I had the essential manuscript. Then it took me about a year to revise and edit the manuscript.
The strange thing is that I can't remember at what point I decided to write it. There was a period of time when I was eighteen, and I started to write down the ideas that I had, but none of them related to the content of Disassociation except for one that occurs in the prologue of the novel - a car, with the protagonist Gabriel and his friends Guy and Narayan inside, screaming to a halt on the road that's blocked by some younger kids wanting to fight them. But I faintly remember taking the ferry to Vancouver island with writing in mind. There were two older men standing on the deck close to me when I first took the ferry from Vancouver, and they were commenting on the serene scenery. One of them said, "It'd be a good place...to sit down and write a book". I heard them, but I didn't respond - although they were talking about the goal that I had in my mind. But I personally think that where you live doesn't really affect the writing process if you're dedicated enough.
So I sat down and wrote it. There weren't any delusions of grandeur, or thoughts that I was going to get money and girls. I wasn't writing for a specific demographic/target audience. It was just what I thought was the right thing to do. I've always wanted to write. I still remember, about eleven or twelve years ago, trying to write a really long story. It was just two guys sitting down and telling very quick stories to one another. They would go back and forth. I had read The Bridges of Madison County at the time (because it was a popular book), and I was surprised at how short it was. I even thought to myself, "Maybe I can write something as long as this, at least". Obviously, the quality of a book doesn't necessarily reside in its length, but since I was only a little kid I felt competitive.
I can't remember how long the document was, and I barely remember the stories the two guys told to one another. I think one of them was about a spaceship. It's pretty funny. Unfortunately I couldn't find the document in the old computer my mother and I had at the time (which I still have right now). But that was my first memorable attempt at writing. I remember telling people ever since, "I want to be a writer". There was this one Arabic girl at my Uncle Fayez's house who said "I predict that Adam will be one of the great Muslim writers", and at this time (early adolescence) I replied by saying "No, no" because I didn't want to write about religious or ethnic subject matter.
Which is funny, because Disassociation is about realizing the plight of my ethnic (Arabic) identity in the world. It's something that I've always felt strongly about, and something that resided in the back of my mind throughout my childhood, adolescence and teenage years. But my own Arabic upbringing I'll save for another time.
I didn't contact an agent or traditional publishing house to release Disassociation. There was a publishing company in Victoria called Trafford, who sold your book online on Amazon, Indigo and Chapters, and gave you forty individual copies. So long story short, I paid them the fee to do this, and after many revisions due to little snags, they released it in November of 2006 when I was living in Ottawa. So after they sent me the copies, I started to go about Ottawa and do readings at different open mic venues, and I had copies in bookstores through consignment deals. This was new ground for me; I could read in front of audiences but they'd always been school audiences and therefore familiar, and I'd never even heard of 'consignment' before this.
I went into the Chapters downtown in Ottawa, and had a meeting with one of the sales reps who had his own office. We had a good discussion of the business of writing. He told me "Everyone's got a book in them", which is still sage advice. He told me that I might want to change the cover to include the subtitle "a novel" since that was standard practice, but I still like the cover nonetheless. So they put five copies on the shelf. At the end of my contract, only one had sold, another had been lost/stolen, and they returned the other three copies to me. They sent me a check for eight dollars, since the book sold for 16$ and the earnings were split in half.
As far as the initial readings, they went smoothly. I sold a fair amount of copies, but definitely not anything substantial. There was a bar (Avant-garde) I went to that was completely noisy and no one was really listening. I did another reading in the downstairs section of another bar, where I was the youngest reader there by far. I read some passages and described the book, and a lot of the people there were interested. There was one reading wherein I met an older female artist, Barbara Carlson. She said she didn't want to go up on stage after me due to how powerful the passages I read were. She created this huge book all about lint, of all things. She had a clear plastic box that had a couple of pieces of lint in it, and she asked me how long I thought it would take for the box to be completely filled. I guessed a year. Then she asked me for some lint - luckily I had some, and I gave it to her.
That's some of the interesting things that happened as I tried to 'publicize' my work. There was no coverage by any periodicals, though. I sent a copy to one literary magazine and they told me they couldn't review it because "It's too long, amongst other things" (it's 452 pages). That last segment "...amongst other things" was pretty bizarre to think of. I couldn't help but think that they wanted me to contact them back frantically, asking "What things? What things?" But I just left it at that.
One other small 'zine in Ottawa basically ridiculed Disassociation under the realm of satirical humor. I sent them a letter asking them if they'd review it, and I explained what it was about. I also noticed they were looking for freelance writers, so I asked if I could be eligible for the position. I didn't want them to print the letter in their letters column, but they did and responded to it but saying "Arabs...are those the ones that blow up buildings and beat up their wives?"
So after I saw that, I was angry, frustrated, humiliated knowing that this was the only public press my book was going to get, this public ridicule. I knew on one level that the didn't mean what they said and that it was for satire/shock value, but I still knew that there were people who weren't going to get it and feed off of the ridicule. So I phoned the 'zine and told them about this. The editor responded by saying that their audience was aware of their satire, and that he was Lebanese. So I left it at that. I tried to think that any publicity is good publicity and other hackneyed comforts like that, but the ridicule was still there. Even so, though, it's not something I get angry about.
I sold copies to friends, and gave some away. One Jordanian guy who was about my age asked me to sign the book for him. It was the first time anyone wanted me to sign their copy, it was nice. I also had a copy inducted into the Ottawa Public Library, in the Local Authors section. That took a long time, but the librarians were all very positive.
So when I moved here to Toronto, almost immediately I participated in the Toronto Small Press Book Fair, which was a very positive experience. Still low key, but that was fine. There were a lot of people showcasing their work, but I noticed that there was only one other man selling his own novel, and it was a horror novel. To sum the Fair up...there was a woman wearing a bunny mask/hat and walking around...one man who had his own table bought a copy of Disassociation. He gave me his card, and it had this picture of him clasping his hands together as if in prayer and smiling at the camera...I made about 100$...one man bought a copy and didn't want me to tell him what it was about at all, because he wanted it to be a surprise...there was a very nice woman who bought a copy and asked me to sign it To Reem, her daughter, and also said she'd try to make steps towards including it in the Toronto Public Library....many people were supportive, and surprised at my age for writing it...
I haven't done too many readings here. I recently went to an open mic night at the University of Toronto and read some passages, and the moderator of the event shook my hand and asked me to come back, which I didn't notice him doing for others. So. There have been literary events that I've attended here and there, but I don't go up to people and ask them to check Disassociation out or anything in that vein. I recently went to a fair for independent literary presses, and met the editor of Rampike magazine and showed him the book. He mentioned that if I wrote them a stoy they'd pay 25$ per page with a maximum of 4 pages. There's still the chance that it'll get rejected. It's a good magazine, with a lot of well-known people involved, so I'm currently planning out a short story for them, along with writing my next novel.
But this is what it's like for me, humble beginnings. Of course I stress out about this ever becoming a career. When I was in Ottawa, I used to have anxiety attacks in bed. Something would feel like it snapped in my head, and then my hands would tingle strongly. The feeling doesn't come as badly as it does now, which is probably partially due to moving out of the difficult building/neighborhood I lived in while in Ottawa, but that's something I'll discuss later.

Honey Dip
(I ain't on some hubby shit, that lovey dovey shit) Sorry, will be quoting random Honey Dip lyrics as this post progresses. So speaking of honey dips, I ain't seen mine in what is a slow forever. I know he's working, but come the fuck on. I haven't seen him in like two going on three weeks. I spoke to him on the phone but the last time I spoke to him was like fuckin Wednesday. I told him to call (Plus she know every Santana song and she don't mind puttin this damn bandanna on) me at midnight and his ass couldn't do that. So I call him and he ain't answering his damn phone. What the fuck am I supposed-Hold on, before I get pissed. Woosa...(Flipped open the horn like where's my honey dip?)
I don't like this don't-stay-in contact-wit-ya-shorty shit. That ain't my steelo. Now I ain't the type of bitch to flip if you don't call for a day or two but when you go from talkin to your man every night to not seeing him for days at a time and not even having a fucking attempt at a goddamn phone call (Who's flyer when I step in got em spyin every second cuz that 0-6 charger remind em of a seven) you get kinda pissed.
(I got me a lovely chick, I got me a slutty chick, I got em all but my favorite one is my honey dip, she get drunk wit me, roll the piff up wit me, throw singles at other hos in the strip club wit me)
Speakin of fucked up shit, guess who in red hell called me the other night? You're right if you thought Mr. PPV. With his triflin ass. Called me like we're still people's and shit. I told his bitch ass I don't do the disappearing act shit. (See, the same is for L but I am actually feelin this nigga enough to give a shit whether we're together or not; Yes ma'am I'm so fresh the pro mess with bread honey, my jeans eight hundred these are called Red Monkey) So he's like hey what's up, I thought it was this nigga Steff but then I was like wait he don't know my real name and their voices sound a hella lot alike.
PPV: Hey how are you?
J: I'm good, you?
PPV: Are you busy?
J: Well, I'm eating.
PPV: Oh, okay. I just wanted to call and touch base with you, I know we haven't spoken in a while.
J: (dripping with sarcasm) Sure haven't.
(When I'm dippin on the grind I get my money quick, but sometimes I wanna lay up with my honey dip)
PPV: Yeah, I took a two month leave of absence, I had to go down South and take care of some things. I couldn't remember your number for shit.
J: Huh. (I wanted to ask him who he was fuckin down there, cuz he sure be down there alot)
PPV: (now his ass is nervous) Well have you moved on? Have you found somebody new?
Sidebar: For the very first time I didn't know what to say. I'm gonna be real with ya'll; I hooked up with L about three days after I last saw PPV and I haven't given his ass a second thought since then. I was tempted to say damn right muthafucka! But my mama happened to be sitting right next to me and I didn't deem it appropriate at the time. So I gave the ambiguous answer:
J: We'll talk.
PPV: Oh okay. So um, let me call you back tomorrow afternoon.
J: Okay, I'll talk to you then.
Needless to say I'm still waiting on that phone call. (And bitch, fuck your man tonight, you know my steelo, sizzurp wit the the Cristal, the corners playin Ceelo, you see me, well you just smile, you know we on the lee-low, or whippin thru the town like we ballin up a kilo)
Hit my cell, hit my two, now I'm wit my honey dip.

5 One 1aLord, one 2bfaith, one cbaptism;
51 This verse does not say "one Son," but "one Lord." In the Gospel of John it is the Son into whom we believe (John 3:16), but in the Acts it is the Lord into whom we believe (Acts 16:31). In the Epistles of John, the Son is for the imparting of life (1 John 5:12), whereas in the Acts, the Lord, after His ascension, is for the exercising of authority (Acts 2:36), a matter which concerns His headship. Hence, our believing in Him is related to both life and authority, for He is both our life and our Head. As the Head of the Body (1:22), He is the Lord. Christians are divided because they neglect the Head; that is, they neglect the Lord's headship and authority.

Lorilyn and Galilea are reading partners in the WITS Workplace Mentoring Program. Galilea is a sixth grader at Rodolfo Lozano Bilingual & International Center Elementary School in Wicker Park. Every Thursday afternoon she rides a school bus with 34 of her classmates to Exelon's offices in the Chase Tower. Once there, she takes the elevator to the 48th floor, where she reads with Lorilyn, or Laura, her other reading mentor. Lorilyn and Galilea are both WITS veterans, having been in the program for several years. They sat down to share some of their thoughts on reading, WITS, and each other.
How long have you and Lorilyn been reading together?
Galilea (G): Three years.
Do you remember when you first met each other? How did you feel?
G: I was excited because I didn't really know what the program was.
Lorilyn (L): I was excited and a little nervous. That was my first time [in WITS] too.
What has been your greatest reading accomplishment at WITS?
L: We've started Charlotte's Web. That one pops into my mind as one of the longer books that we've read. Do you remember the one about Paris?
G: Oh yeah! I had gotten it at the bookstore at the school. We read that together the first year.
L: She said one of the reasons she read it was because going to Paris is on her bucket list.
What is your best memory of WITS together?
G: I think it was Switch Day.
L: I was going to say the same thing!
G: Instead of me coming to [Exelon] she came to my school. I think it was the year before last year. We made the origami bookmark.
L: She was very excited [to show me around her school]!
What is something you've learned from your buddy?
L: She reminded me how tough school can be at such a young age.
G: Yeah we have the PARCC test…
L: It's kind of funny how we like a lot of the same things. Like the color red is our favorite color. We really don't like math as much but we like reading and writing.
Lorilyn, how have you seen Galilea change since she started WITS?
L: Well not only grow physically—
G: (whispers) Good reading!
L: And yes, with the reading! I have seen that she can take a book like Charlotte's Web and do better than expected. It's nice when she'll pick a book like Charlotte's Web and I can see how well she can read!
What is a hope or dream you have for your reading buddy after you're no longer reading together?
G: Remember me!
L: We were just thinking about this because this is [Galilea's] last year [in the WITS program]! I dream that you'll go to Paris! I imagine you bringing books with you. When she comes back from Winter Break, Spring Break she'll always tell me about books that she's read. It's nice to see that she likes to read. I love to travel, and it was because when I was younger I'd read all these books. And so when she read this book about Paris, and she wanted to go to Paris, I thought if she read more things, she might also want to travel and see more of the world.

I love this quote by my father as it really sums up all that a responsible parent can do regarding the topic of immunisation; research, educate yourself of the latest information and expert opinions and then make a decision which feels best for you and your family.
I have spent many years working with and offering support and guidance to parents, who for various reasons, do not feel comfortable with the current vaccination schedule offered to their newborns. By the time I speak to most parents they already have a vast knowledge of the pro's and con's of vaccination so it is only my job to better informed on the process of HP and let them decided what they feel is right for them.
Unlike the current allopathic approach to immunisation being; you either vaccinate or be irresponsible, bad parents, thankfully HP is not so black and white. There are many options that parents have including using both HP and vaccinations together or one after the other, I currently have several parents who have chosen to use the more natural thus safer HP method on their newborns and then introduce vaccines once the children are older and have stronger immune systems.
So like many health options there is no right or wrong answer it is what your personal preference is, if you prefer to follow mainstream medicine then you will adhere to the current vaccine schedule, If you feel more confident in taking a more natural approach to health then you can follow the homeopathic immunisation schedule, and if you are unsure then you wait and continue to research until you find what best suits you.

Never before have I experienced such timely response to my needs.The quality and creativity they offer is top-notch and results in the image we are striving for without having to make huge financial sacrifices to get there.

Importantly skilled with the tools necessary for competing in today's market (software and hardware does not intimidate her) she accurately estimates of time and costs for projects. A professional I can recommend without reservation.

When it comes to finding the best contractor or firm to carry out work at your home or property, it can be a lot harder than you would think it should be. There is a great range of firms offering services and with the internet being what it is these days, we have access to a great amount of information and data. You may argue that we actually have access to too much data, causing us a problem. It used to be that we never had enough data to make an informed decision, it is now the case that we may have too much information at our fingertips, allowing us to permanently procrastinate over the buying decisions that we make.
This is where a helping hand can come in very useful and this is where we are here to help. I'm John James and I hail from Leeds. I can be found online at the Driveway Installers site and the Finding Great Company's site. As you would expect from the names of these sites, I have a particular interest in finding great firms, with a focus on firms that provide great quality driveways. I've spent a considerable amount of time looking at firms in Leeds, determining who offers an effective or reliable service.
This guide will hopefully highlight firms you can rely on
With this information at hand, there is no point in keeping it to myself. If there are firms carrying out good work, it is important to ensure that other people know about what this firm has to offer. If there are firms carrying out poor work, it is important that people are warned, which will hopefully see people avoid these companies. The thing is, if a firm knows they receive bad reviews and they start experiencing a drop in sales, they will be forced into improving their standards, which in the long run is a good thing for consumers and the company.
With the internet being what it is, you can't always trust every review or take everything at face value. That is another strong reason in why I decided to create this guide because I believe it is important that people are provided with correct information about the services they may wish to buy.
Having work carried out at your driveway may not be the biggest investment a person makes in their life, but it can represent a sizable investment. I would much prefer that people made decisions about which firm provides them with driveway services after they have evaluated the options. This provides peace of mind to consumers and hopefully some firms will decide that it is in their interest to offer a better standard of service or to improve the value of money that they offer.
If you enjoy this guide, be sure to share it with others and if you have any opinion on the services of these firms, or if you have found a firm that isn't listed yet, get in touch so we can create the best possible guide.

With a new $3 million federal grant, Senthold Asseng, a UF/IFAS professor of agricultural and biological engineering, and scientist David Gustafson, of the International Life Sciences Institute or ILSI Research Foundation, will lead a four-year research project to find more places to grow fresh produce. The grant is funded by the National Institute of Food and Agriculture, a branch of the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
According to a release from UF/IFAS, University of Florida researchers are sounding a warning bell that fresh produce may be hard to come by in the future. Scientists with the UF Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences cite changes in our climate, loss of fresh water and competition for resources as major threats in farmers' ability to increase production of fruits and vegetables.
"Through this type of collaborative research, we discover the scientific answers that help solve world hunger problems," said Jack Payne, UF senior vice president for agriculture and natural resources. "Knowing where and how to grow crops goes a long way to feeding as many people as possible while conserving our environment."
Asseng, Gustafson and a team of leading scientists from the International Food Policy Research Institute, University of Arkansas, University of Illinois, Washington State University and the World Agricultural Economic and Environmental Services will use crop, environmental, economic and climate modeling to predict current and future impacts on yield. They also will study the quality of selected fruit and vegetable crops in states where they are currently grown and identify future locations that will allow for continued or potentially increased production. Additionally, the researchers will investigate places that have sufficient water to grow fruits and vegetables, ultimately utilizing climate data to see where such produce can be grown in the future.
Corban W. Rawls, grandson of Gainesville resident Yvonne C. Rawls and the late Dr. John C. Rawls, graduated with honors from Harmony Science Academy North Austin, in Pflugerville, Texas on May 25, 2017.
Using his education from the STEM- science, technology, English and math based academy, Corban produced a web based tool that could be used by Harmony and local businesses using crowd-sourcing to collaborate and track volunteer hours for their high school students.
A talented swimmer, and as the No. 20 college recruit in the U.S. for the 2017 class, Corban is attending Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts where he is pursuing a degree in biomedical engineering and swimming for the Harvard Men's Swimming and Diving team. His parents, Cedric and Tanza Rawls, and his brother Carsten reside in San Jose, Calif.
Jordan Thorp, a 2017 graduate of Oak Hall High School, has been awarded a $2500 Star Scholarship from the P.E.O. Sisterhood. She was sponsored by Chapter CQ of Gainesville, Florida. The P.E.O. Star Scholarship was established in 2009 to provide scholarships for exceptional high school senior women to attend an accredited post secondary educational institution, according to a release from the P.E.O. Sisterhood.
A daughter of James and Kelley Thorp, Jordan is pursuing a degree in speech pathology at the University of Florida. Jordan's accomplishments are many. She is a scholar, varsiity cheerleader at Oak Hall, actress and participant in the Miss Florida Scholarship Program. She founder of The Smile Team to raise funds to provide dental care for children with cleft lip and or palate. She has raised more than $60,000 to fund 240 free cleft lip and palate surgeries for poor children in developing countries, and has raised an additional $60,000 to treat children in Florida. She has developed a partnership agreement with Grins and Giggles Dentistry in Gainesville to help cover costs of children needing extensive dental care as a result of cleft lip and/or palate.
Integrated Digitized Biocollections or iDigBio, a National Science Foundation-sponsored project to help digitize the nation's natural history collections now houses more than 100 million specimen records in its online database, offering access to the largest virtual collection of life on Earth. iDigBio is based at the University of Florida with the Florida Museum of Natural History and Florida State University as core partners.
According to a release from the Florida Museum, natural history collections worldwide contain more than a billion specimens of plants, animals and fungi. But before digitization, the wealth of scientific information they offered was largely confined to the drawers and shelves of museums and universities. NSF established iDigBio, to coordinate a nationwide digitization effort by developing the infrastructure to standardize and preserve specimen data long term and by helping institutions launch their digitization efforts. The program is part of NSF's Advancing Digitization of Biodiversity Collections initiative.
Now in its seventh year, iDigBio has amassed data from more than 1,900 collections from about 820 institutions in its online portal. The volume of data has reached a "critical mass" at which researchers can begin using it to investigate broad scale evolutionary and ecological questions, said Larry Page, director of iDigBio and curator of ichthyology at the Florida Museum. The portal can be searched by fields such as scientific name, location, collector, time period, region and date collected, unlocking natural history data for researchers, educators and the public.

This is the house that gives its name to the estate, in the grounds of which is the little cottage in which we spend a weekend every year on the south shore of Loch Lomond. Ross Priory is now owned by the University of Strathclyde as an educational and recreational centre. The grounds host lovely walks and a gorgeous little golf course.
This image was deliberately set up to be about the contrast between the solidity of the building and the natural environment in which it sits. I wanted to contrast the rock steady building with the transient nature of the natural world. Hence the movement build in through the long exposure.
There was quite a strong wind and I could see that I'd get cloud movement and a lot of movement from the trees. I got a lot from those trees on the left, but much less than I imagined from the tall pine in the background.
So that's the thinking and here's the image. What do you think?

Don't Look Back!
Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Mar 18, 2010 (message contributor)
Summary: Why should Christians remember Lot's wife? Just like Sodom and Gomorrah, before Christ's return, the world will be saturated with evil. Christians are warned to come out of the world and not be a part of it.
Opening illustration: If a person sees a house on fire and does everything he can to rescue the occupants, he is heralded as a hero. And that's the way it should be. Why is it, then, that a Christian who accepts what God says in the Bible about hell and tries to warn people is ridiculed as an alarmist?
We read about a similar situation in Genesis 19, which tells of the fate of Sodom and Gomorrah. Abraham's nephew Lot was warned by God that Sodom and Gomorrah would be destroyed. He urged his sons-in-law to leave the city, but his plea fell on deaf ears because they thought he was joking (v.14). But Lot was right. Judgment did come.
One of these days God's wrath will be poured out again on the wicked of this earth. As believers, we'll be delivered from His wrath because our sins have been forgiven. Therefore, it's our responsibility to do for others what someone did for us - sound the warning and give the alarm! Unbelievers must be told of the only way to escape punishment. They may ridicule our message and make fun of us, but that doesn't change the facts.
Let's keep working to lead people to the safety that can be found in Christ alone. This world needs more "alarmists"! Jesus is not just asking us to just remember somebody's wife. Jesus asked us to remember Lot's wife for a reason. There is a powerful truth and revelation that we can learn from Lot's wife and the story behind it. So let's go to the passage in Luke 17. Now let us turn to the story in Genesis 19 and catch up with one of the early alarmists.
Introduction: After visiting Sodom and Gomorrah, God had no doubt that the cities had reached the point of no return. The two cities were, therefore, condemned to total annihilation and only Lot his wife and two daughters would have escaped. The warning to Lot, his wife and daughters was undeniably explicit: Escape for thy life; look not behind thee neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain lest thou be consumed (Genesis 19: 17). Unfortunately, Lot's wife dared to disregard the angelic warning, looked back and she became a pillar of salt (v. 26).
But what if God had shown her mercy and had allowed her to go on without punishing her? Certainly, that would have put into focus God's patience and mercy, and it would have definitely prevented the scoffers from insinuating that the Judeo-Christian God is not a God of love.
Was Lot's wife simply committing a small act of disobedience? Was she, perhaps, simply looking back because she was distraught over her children that were left behind and about to be destroyed? Unless Jesus Christ had brought meaning into this event, it might have seemed perplexing. Having been present, Christ beheld the events as they happened and was fully aware of Lot's wife's true motives. Thus, He warns Christians at the end of times to Remember Lot's wife (Luke 17: 32).
Why should Christians remember Lot's wife? Just like Sodom and Gomorrah, before Christ's return, the world will be saturated with evil. Christians are warned to come out of the world and not be a part of it. God warns in the last book of the Bible: Come out of her my people that you are not partakers of her sin, and that you receive not of her plagues (Revelation 18: 4). To be partakers of her sins means partaking of the horrendous destruction that will befall sinful humankind at the end of times.
The warning is again explicit. Come out of sin and do not desire to return to it. He who loves the world is the enemy of God (James 4: 4) and, thus, a friend of Satan. Not heeding such a command means bringing upon oneself terrible consequences like Lot's wife.
What to do with our past?
1. Call to quit the carnal (vs. 12 - 13)
Apostolic authority has declared Lot was a righteous man (2 Peter 2: 8), at bottom good, though he contented himself with lamenting the sins that he saw, instead of acting on his own convictions, and withdrawing himself and family from such a sink of corruption. But favor was shown him: and even his bad relatives had, for his sake, an offer of deliverance, which was ridiculed and spurned (2 Peter_3: 4).
2. Reasons for not quitting (vs. 14, 22)
Comfort zone (used to pleasing the flesh) ~ because in their carnal security they did not believe in any judgment of God (Luke_17: 28-29). If Lot had married daughters, he would undoubtedly have called upon them to escape along with their husbands, his sons-in-law. Before leaving, Lot offers his daughters to the people (presumably immoral uses) but they refuse. (Why? - were they particularly ugly?) (Is this any way for a prophet of God to act?) Lot had compromised to the point that he was almost useless to God. When he finally made a stand, nobody listened. Are we in a similar situation? To make a difference, we must first decide to be different in our faith and our conduct.

TravelTriangle has served 3000+ travelers for Ladakh
Travellers will find four ATM's in Leh town, owned by Axis Bank, Jammu and Kashmir Bank, Punjab National Bank and State Bank of India.
As offered in this 7 nights and 8 days Leh Ladakh Family tour, a road trip from Srinagar to Leh is often considered better than the Manali-Leh road trip. The reasons for the former to be assumed better are:
Gradual ascent into high altitudes, giving more time to acclimatize
Comparatively less treacherous roads
Evenly balanced travel distance and time and
No worries about permits
Since Ladakh is located at 10,000 feet above sea level there is a shortage of oxygen supply at this altitude. Besides there are other tourist attractions in the region like Pangong Tso, that's perched at an altitude of 14,000 feet. Travelling to such extreme heights can cause Acute Mountain Sickness which in turn causes breathlessness, severe headaches and heart problems. Apart from that, travelling to such heights can aggravate health problems like Asthma, High BP and Heart Problems.
However, if proper care is taken, anyone can explore Leh Ladakh. Travellers should prepare for this trip in advance with exercise and consultation with doctors. If one is asthmatic or has a High BP, they should carry medicines with them. On entering Leh, one should give ample time to their body to adjust to the change in climate and drink as much water as possible to remain hydrated.
This 7 nights and 8 days Leh Ladakh family tour can certainly be customised according to the traveller's preferences. All they need to do is get in touch with our expert trip advisors and discuss all their requirements while availing the holiday package.
3 years is the minimum age for a child to go on this Leh Ladakh family tour package. TravelTriangle does not provide tour packages to families travelling with a child below 3 years of age. The high altitudes cause a drop in temperature as well as the oxygen level. A child below the aforementioned minimum age will find it considerably difficult to adjust to the weather change and there are high chances of falling prey to Acute Mountain Sickness.

The Fate of the Furious (2017) : Movie Review
The Fate of the Furious : Guys. Get set for a truly exhilarating roler coaster!! With one action sequence following another, Fast & Furious 8 offers non stop entertainment to action buffs, particularly those who made the franchise rake in the big bucks right till its seventh instalment. [ Read: RESIDENT EVIL–THE FINAL CHAPTER (2017) : Movie Review ]
Starting with the pulsating car race in Havana to the crowded streets of the 'Big Apple' and the final showdown in snow capped Siberia, every stunt is expertly handled. The CGI, specially the remotely hacked cars plummeting from high rise buildings right in to the crowded streets is a visual spectacle!
Of the cast, Charlize Theron is super impressive as the sexy antagonist who is keen to a wreak a global war. It's gratifying to watch Kurt Russell in an extended cameo.
Some of the situations have a bollywood deja vu like a family kept hostage to pull off a crime and the final rescue act of the baby borders on the implausible. The car's tumbling in to each other may provide Rohit Shetty some fuel for his next blockbuster. Never mind! [ Read: PRIDE AND PREJUDICE AND ZOMBIES (2016) : Movie Review ]

The movie ends with an indication of a Part 9. I wouldn't mind the time-pass. As long as Vin Diesel doesn't "attempt" to cry on screen.

Some 30,000 people have fled raids by the Hutu FDLR militia in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo over the past two weeks, the UN says.
The armies of Rwanda and DR Congo launched a joint operation against the FDLR in January, before Rwandan troops returned home a month later.
The UN's refugee agency says the militia has been retaliating against the civilian population.
The FDLR's presence in DR Congo lies behind years of unrest in the region.
Some of the group's leaders are accused of taking part in the 1994 Rwandan genocide, in which some 800,000 ethnic Tutsis and moderate Hutus were slaughtered.
The FDLR stepped up its attacks in the first half of March, some of those who have fled fighting in the Lubero district of North Kivu province have told the UNHCR.
At least three civilians were killed on 15 March further south in Masisi, the UN says.
Some 160,000 people have fled their homes this year following fighting with the FDLR, the UN refugee agency says.
On-and-off fighting involving the FDLR, the army and other militias has displaced more than one million people in North Kivu since late 2006.
After the 1994 genocide, many of those responsible crossed into DR Congo as Tutsi rebels took power in Rwanda.
Rwanda has twice invaded DR Congo, saying it wants to stop the FDLR from staging attacks.

Andrew is a qualified interior designer and has accumulated a wealth of experience at Smallbone and Siematic, before joining bulthaup in 2007.
His approach is inspired by architects such as Le Corbusier and his use of material and technique in the creation of dynamic spaces using light and curves.
Andrew refers to the New Food School initiative as one of his most memorable projects. It saw him use the structure of a Cotswolds' barn as a setting for an innovative semi-industrial kitchen. The work reflects his current feelings towards design, championing the integration of contemporary kitchens with period buildings.
"The two are not mutually exclusive and with a clever mix of colour and materials the end result is more impressive than opting for a kitchen which is deemed 'in keeping' but lacks any real 'wow' factor."
He believes kitchen design will change in the future to become less decorative, with the pendulum of design moving towards minimalism, efficiency and sustainability. This fits well with his personal style and the overall bulthaup vision, which concentrates on tailoring groundbreaking, contemporary kitchens to the needs of clients.

Monsoon time. Calcutta
I was walking in Kolkata. Monsoon time. This little girl was waiting under the light rain to cross the busy Jawaharlal
Nehru road, a big artery of Kolkata. She was going in the direction of the Maiden's, a big park.
In 1690, the site of Calcutta was chosen by Job Charnok, an agent of the East India Company, for a British trade settlement.
The place was carefully selected, being protected by the Hooghly River on the west, a creek to the north, and by salt lakes
about two and a half miles to the east.
There were three large villages along the east bank of the iver Ganges, named, Sutanuti, Gobindapur and Kalikata.
These three villages were bought by the British from local land lords. The Mughal emperor granted the East India
Company freedom of trade in return for a yearly payment of 3,000 rupees.

ROME, May 10 (Reuters) - Italy's stock of net non-performing loans (NPLs) will fall to 130 billion euros ($154 billion) in the coming months, equal to 7.2 percent of total loans, the Bank of Italy said on Thursday.
Up until last month, Italian banks still held more than 250 billion euros in troubled loans four years after a deep recession that had pushed that figure up to 360 billion euros, but lenders are selling them off to specialist firms.
Fabio Panetta, deputy governor of the Bank of Italy, said although the NPL figure was falling, the distribution of the loans was uneven, with some banks still highly exposed to the problem. ($1 = 0.8427 euros) (Reporting by Stefano Bernabei, writing by Crispian Balmer, editing by Gavin Jones)

Our client is a wonderful man. He is a proud father and hard working cross-country truck driver. At the time of this accident he was employed by a transport company and was enjoying fairly good health.
The tortfeasore was over 90 years old at the time of this accident. In this crash, our client's airbags deployed and slammed him in the face. While the airbags may have saved his life and a more serious head injury, it has left him with constant head pain and headaches as well as causing herniated discs. He was recommended to have surgery to the cervical spine. Happily, we were able to secure policy limits for our client, and he received a $100,000 settlement.

It was another tough one, but that might be just me. There are numbers around, plenty of them, but I have this silly notion numbers need to mean something. So while it's always fun to scout for photo opportunities, I wasn't easily satisfied with what I came up with. Most numbers in the collage above might make sense to their owners of sorts - though still not to me - but the number 75 on Squirt's top means nothing! He wasn't born in 1975, nor were me or Man, and he, nor us, nor his grandparents are yet 75. We don't live at number 75 and I can't think of any other way this number will soon make sense to any one of us. That's what I mean, it's wrong. Which is why this top is already on its way to the second hand shop (we're about to move and it's clear-out time, by way of an excuse, and anyway - it was a very cheap 'needs must'-buy of the diaper-wearing-related kind, but that's all by the by)!
So I kept looking for numbers to speak to me, and then I saw this! A car of sorts, one of Squirt's favourites! He calls it 'red weird car'. He also has a yellow version, so that clears that up ;) But the number! It's 32! We'll be living at number 32 in the new house!
But that was all I could come up with, as far as physical numbers are concerned. Like I said, me and my odd notions (yes, I count steps at times, too!)... It doesn't make life easier, at least not all the time :)
But then I saw how Squirt liked walking around in my shoes :) And I decided that, like with SPARKLE, I could take it out of the literal and into the illustrative of sorts! He had fun here, I promise - no little kid got hurt in the taking of these pictures ;) - and I got ample opportunity to take as many shots as I wanted!
The caption would read: Size is but a number. Sometimes, numbers matter. Does this count?
Please pop over to Mridula's to see what she came up with!
I know it's my turn to come up with a new assignment, but I haven't. Not yet. Sorry! Brain mush... I'm going to take today to come up with something and add it as an edit to this post tonight. The deadline will be Monday 25th October, and you're very welcome to join if you want to!
Edit, three days later...
I didn't forget and I didn't flake out as such. I have been racking my brain to come up with a new theme, and it's just not happening! So frustrating!!
So I've decided to keep things relatively simple: this round, photograph what makes you happy. Either constantly and long term, or something fleeting like a ray of sun - as long as it makes you feel good :)
