Plum Pudding Day is dedicated to a mouthwatering treat that, surprisingly enough, contains no plums! In the 17th century when it was first created, plums were referred to as raisins or any other type of dried fruits. Plum pudding (aka Christmas pudding) is a steamed or boiled pudding usually served during the holiday season. Plum pudding is composed of nutmeg, raisins, nuts, apples, cinnamon, dates, and many other ingredients. In England, it is tradition to have every person a household simultaneously hold onto the wooden spoon together to help stir the batter. As they stir it they also have to make a wish!
How to Celebrate National Plum Pudding Day
Celebrating the National Plum Pudding Day is quite simple. You can enter into a local pastry shop to buy the plum pudding for you and your family. Get to know more about the plum pudding and its making. Try preparing it for your family and serve them the homemade plum pudding recipe. You can even add your preference for nuts and raisins to make it rich. Call your friends for a get-together and serve them the plum pudding. Share your plum pudding celebration photos on the social media using the hashtag #PlumPuddingDay.

Gone are the days of plus size and fuller cup lingerie being a static market. With an ever growing number of retailers and an increasing demand for beautiful and functional under garments, designers have been forced to up their game. This means that lingerie trends have trickled through to the fuller figured market and now, brands like Playful Promises, Scantilly, and Tutti Rouge are leading the way for lingerie trends and giving those of us with fuller figures an increasing variety of options.
This autumn we're spoilt with a choice of dreamy florals, longline bras, & vibrant neons.
Granted, this does turn up pretty much every autumn but this year it comes with added lace and sheer panels to vamp it up a bit. Autumn/Winter dressing for me means heavy clothes in dark colours, which means heavy patterns can be worn without being too revealed!
Panache Jasmine in Rose Print, sizes 30 – 38, D – K
Elomi Aquila Shale Half Cup, sizes 34 – 46, D – H
Simply Be Maxine Purple Floral Print Balcony Bra, sizes 36 – 48, B – K
Longline Bras
The longer line bra was, previously, something very rare in the fuller bust market but there are a wealth of options available this season. The longer line bra has just a hint of vintage styling with a real playful edge. They also create, or emphasise, an hourglass line. I often find I need to size up on the band on these bras to ensure I don't create an extra fat roll with the longline.
Elomi Bijou Teal Longline Banded Bra, sizes 34 – 40, E – H
Freya Zentangle Grey Padded Longline Bra, sizes 28 – 38, C – H
Ann Summers Applique Longline Bra, sizes 32 – 44, A – H
Vibrant Neons
These are bras that need to be seen. As vibrant and loud as possible, they'll look great peeking out from beneath this seasons sheer mesh tops and, quite frankly, you won't want to take them off!
Scantilly Peek-A-Boo Chartreuse Balcony Bra, sizes 30 – 38, DD – H
Pour Moi? Viva Underwired Bra Ultramarine, sizes 30 – 44, E – J
Freya Hero Blue Side Support Plunge Bra, sizes 28 – 38, D – K
Will you be investing in any of these A/W trends?

While combining for nearly 300 yards of total offense and eight touchdowns in last Friday's football game against arch-rival Wrenshall, Carlton brothers Jacob and Matt Santkuyl were asked who played better. "He took the first half and I took the second," said Jacob, a senior who had 153 yards receiving and three touchdowns, as well as two interceptions and a 74-yard kickoff return. Matt, a junior, was not to be outdone by his older bro.
While the Esko boys basketball team was trying to win their fifth-consecutive Coaches Classic crown at the conclusion of the Saturday, Dec. 30, annual holiday tournament, they were playing for much more than a trophy. Rather, it was for their trophy-winning coach. Well-decorated during his longtime tenure at Esko, Mike Devney was unfortunately absent from the sidelines due to a medical emergency regarding is health on the evening of his 60th birthday.
MINNEAPOLIS — Odds are, if you were to tell Tom Lenarz that his Cloquet football team would have created five turnovers in Friday's Prep Bowl XXXVI against Holy Angels Academy, the coach would have liked his team's chances.
MINNEAPOLIS — Playing in their first championship game in 41 years, the Cloquet football team has created three turnovers, yet trails Holy Angels Academy 7-0 at halftime of Prep Bowl XXXVI at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis. The Lumberjacks (12-0), seeking Northeastern Minnesota's first prep title for large schools since Eveleth in 1973, has two interceptions via Riley Leslie, Alex Leuzzo and a fumble recovery by Bryce Turnbull, but hasn't taken advantage against the Richfield, Minn.-based Stars (11-1).
MINNEAPOLIS — Having won five football games in a row, including four on the brink of elimination, Moose Lake-Willow River was riding a whirlwind of a turnaround and sat one win shy of a fourth Prep Bowl appearance. Then came along Tyl Woelber and Pipestone Area.
That balance has centered Cloquet to yet another undefeated fall, including their fourth state tournament appearance in five years and, finally, a breakthrough to get past the opening round. Historically, this is the farthest the Lumberjacks have gotten in 41 years, when they finished as state runners-up in 1976.
"He was really on fire," said Rebels coach Dave Louzek, now in his 19th season and owning a career record of 176-43. In fact, Little scored on ML-WR's first offensive play, scooting through the line of scrimmage and bursting 53 yards for a touchdown. Come the second quarter, he exploded on scoring runs of 81 and 43 yards as the Rebels led 28-0 at half.
The Cromwell-Wright Cardinals beat Wrenshall Nov. 3 to advance to the state tournament. The Cardinals (11-0) will take on Storm (10-1) Friday, Nov. 10 at 5:30 p.m. at Bemidji State University in a state quarterfinal.
Not only did the two-touchdown victory reignite the Rebels' reign on top of 7AA, but more importantly, it returned ML-WR to a place that has been become much their second home: the state tournament. The red-hot Rebels (6-5), winners of four straight, will face West Central Area (7-4) in a Class AA state quarterfinal Friday at 7 p.m. in Brainerd. <
Never once leaving the court, Sutton also added 25 digs and four blocks in the Vikings (22-5) 17th consecutive — and biggest — victory. Yet, combining with Cook County to win every 7A crown for the past five years — Carlton also won titles in 2013 and 2014 — the gritty Bulldogs (24-6) didn't go down quietly.

Like everyone else, you are probably excited about Botox injections. For the uninitiated, Botox is a brand for a kind of toxin, which is produced by bacterium "Clostridium botulinum", and for years now, Botox injections have been used for treating wrinkles, especially on the forehead and crow's feet. If you are keen on visiting a médecin injecteur Botox, it is important to know some of the basics listed below.
How to get Botox injections?
You don't need local anesthesia to get Botox injections. An extremely fine needle is used to target the concerned muscle and the Botox is injected. The dose largely depends on the look desired, but the actual effect is visible after three to seven days. Botox blocks the signals from the concerned nerves to the actual muscles, and therefore, these muscles cannot contract naturally, which further relaxes and softens the wrinkles. Right after getting Botox injections, you should stop taking anti-inflammatory medicines for at least a couple of weeks.
Results and side effects
Within three to seven days, you will realize the effects of Botox, which will last for about three to four months, after which muscle action will start again, and the injection must be repeated. However, the appearance of lines and wrinkles will start to reduce considerably with subsequent injections, mainly because the muscles concerning those wrinkles will learn to relax. In terms of side effects, there are a few, such as frequenting headaches and bruising at the injection site. In rare cases, patients may get the sign called drooping eyelids.
Am I an ideal candidate?
Most people can get Botox injections, barring a few exceptions. Breastfeeding and pregnant women should avoid Botox or must at least talk to their doctor in advance. Keep in mind that Botox doesn't always work for all patients and all kinds of wrinkles. It is always better to talk to a doctor first. Keep in mind that the right clinic for your wrinkle treatment is equally important, so do your homework. Also, the costs are not covered by insurance, and therefore, it is best to get an idea of the treatment, especially if you intend to go for multiple injections over a couple of years.
Check online now to find more on clinics offering Botox treatments in your city and take an appointment at the earliest to know more on the procedure and other aspects that may affect your case.

We couldn't resist. When we were asked to do a live cover at the radio show popsalongen we thought about it for about 3 secs and then chose to do a cover of 'Freaky Like Me' by our brothers in Madcon. Gypsy style.
So here's a live version of Mr. King and then the gypsy funky cover 'Freaky like me', Live at NRK Radio, P3.

As I have been spending time, in the mornings, with Daddy (God), I (Daniel) have had Him speaking to me in ways that I haven't felt in a very long time (years). The time I have spent with Him hasn't been consistant every morning, with my hours at work changing between 8 and 9am, sometimes it doesn't give me as long as I would like, with Him. But, what I am about to share began a week ago—last Wednesday. The day had been like any other, with the exception of me geeting to spend some time in the Word and in prayer. That evening my wife and I went to church, which was just like any other church night for me.
Once the service began, I stayed in front of my seat but stood for worship until my legs began hurting from the workday, so I ended up sitting down. As I sat in my seat I still worshipped Daddy, at one point He audibly spoke to me and told me to open my Bible and where the pages fell open, to begin reading: that ended up being Daniel 6:4.
'Then the presidents and princes sought to find occasion against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could find none occassion nor fault;…' – Daniel 6:4, KJV
Soon as my eyes read this passage, one of our pastors came over to me and a friend: he began to give us a word from the Lord. This word spoken said that we would receieve a greater boldness, that we would also have "thus saith the Lord" moments; and we would be fireballs and the Word would be a fire shut up in our bones that we cannot keep shut up.
After my wife and I spoke to a friend of ours: telling him about what Daddy told me to do, and the word that was given; and trying to figure out how it related—he pointed it out to me that the connection was evident. He began showing me the relation to it that I missed and told me to read the entirity of chapter 6. I did that the next morning. Once I had completed chapter 6, Daddy instructed me to begin reading the entire book of Daniel. I am currently at chapter 11.
Everything that Daddy has been revealing to me through this book of prophecy has truly been life changing. Before any of this happened my wife had a prophetic dream given to her by Daddy, in which I went deeper into the Spirit. Since I have been delving deeper into the book of Daniel, and seeking out Daddy, the more of going deeper has been taking place.
The things He has been showing me has to do with the gifts He has given to me, there are some other gifts that it doesn't touch on, but the ones it is have been amazing to learn about. Once I gather more truths from it, I will seek Him out and see if He will allow me to share the details of it. If I am permitted to do so, there will be a lot more covered that happened leading up to these events, that until now, I didn't realize dealt with this. Nevertheless, I am very excited to see where this journey with my Daddy is headed.

Five Car Modifications for Extreme Fuel Efficiency
At the best insurance comparison sites you can even talk to an insurance expert who will answer all your car insurance questions and help you get the best rate on you insurance policy. (See link below.)
Indeed, demand for short term car insurance like this may rise as interest in breaks abroad goes up. According to Colin Ramsay, owner of Ramsay World Travel, more people are seeking to take trips to other countries and there are plenty of good offers for them to make the most of, the Scotland Courier reports.
The danger is that people don't realize that an insurance policy is in fact a legal contract between two parties with very clear obligations and commitments on both sides. This is especially important in car and auto insurance for a couple of reasons.
Sure we can find other providers on our own and set appointments with these providers to seek treatment for something your PCP may not be trained for but should you? But the PCP is your ticket to continuity in health care delivery. your PCP will keep your medical records and be able to provide these records to specialist you are referred to see.
Nowadays it is possible to get one day car insurance for your vehicle. This is especially nice when you buy a new car. Instead of having to leave your new car behind for a day or two, until you can get long term insurance on it, you can purchase short term that just lasts a day or two. This will allow you to drive the car home right away and give you time to get more permanent insurance cover.
Aston Martin Virage is designed out of the bound of time. This car presents a perfect combination of the great design and engineering technology of Aston Martin. This car is powered by 48-valve all-alloy quad overhead V12 camshaft engine with the capacity of up to 5935 cc. This car can produce power up to 500bhp and can reach 0-60miles within 4.5 seconds. This car is often known for its great design and look. The body of the car is made up to Magnesium alloy, aluminum and composite body. Aston Martin Virage will enjoy the same status, even after a decade.
Normally you will discover other ways to complete almost anything in everyday life. If you are referring to receiving a dinner, they might consider the supermarket and obtain products to create a meal by themselves, they might drive to some unhealthy foods joint to get meals that somebody else made for them, or they are able to go to a restaurant and also have a meal cooked just for them and offered on to them by waiters and waitresses. In relation to searching for household items, this is often achieved personally in a physical establishment or it may be performed on the phone having a customer support representative going for a person's order. Within the last 2 decades, people have had the opportunity to buy items on the web at online retailers and retailers. The strategy one chooses for performing various tasks is subjective; there isn't a proper or incorrect technique to get meals or shop or do anything whatsoever. Individual choice drives individuals to do things in the manner that they are most dependable.

Broken And Fixed HeartsPsalms 34:18a: The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; . . .
Some of Strong*s definitions of broken: burst (literally or figuratively), break down, break off, break in pieces, break up, brought to the birth, crushed, destroyed, hurt, etc.
Psalms 57:7: My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.
Some of Strong*s definitions of fixed: to be erect (stand perpendicular); (causatively) to set up, establish, fix, prepare, apply, (appoint, render sure, proper or prosperous) firm, be fitted, be fixed, be meet, perfect, (be or make) ready or right, etc.
F. Whitfield:
The worst of all mockeries is a religion that leaves the heart unchanged: a religion that has everything but the love of Christ enshrined in the soul.
Author unknown:
The heart of the human being longs for God, and logic demands (a) divine existence.
Author unknown:
There exists a God-shaped hole in the heart of every man that can only be filled by Him.
Rufus H. McDaniel:
What a wonderful change in my life has been wrought, since Jesus came into my heart.
The Bible gives a lot of attention to the human heart. It seldom refers to the muscle in our chests that pumps blood around our bodies. Our hearts are the real and eternal essence of the persons we are. The Bible says a great deal about the differences between the hearts of lost souls and those of saved souls. The only One who can fix the heart of a lost soul is God Himself.Proverbs 21:1: The king*s heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.
I asked the Lord to be my heart surgeon when I received Jesus. Perhaps that is why I love the passages in the Bible that speak of what Jesus does in and to our hearts when we receive Him. We find wonderful descriptions in the Bible of His work in and on our hearts. Hearts with Christ in them and hearts without Him are polar opposites.
Many individuals believe that they have received Jesus who have not. They have believed that they could receive a Jesus who would not correct their heart or change their lives and behavior. They have received a false Jesus. They have received a Jesus who they believe permits them to remain what they want to be rather than what He wants them to be. They have received a Jesus who is a bandaid rather than a heart surgeon.Ezekiel 14:3a: Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their heart, . . .
Ephesians 3:17a: That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; . . .Jeremiah 17:9: The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
Matthew 5:8: Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.Acts 15:8-9: And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them (the Gentiles) witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us; (the Jews) 9 And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.
Luke 6:45: A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
Psalms 73:26: My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.Hebrews 3:12: Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.
Romans 10:9-10: That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness;and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.1 King 8:61: Let your heart therefore be perfect with the LORD our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments, as at this day. Psalms 119:32: I will run the way of thy commandments, when thou shalt enlarge my heart.
Charles Haddon Spurgeon:
The heart of the believer is Christ*s garden. He bought it with His precious blood, and He enters it and claims it as His own. A garden implies separation. It is not the open common; it is not a wilderness; it is walled around, or hedged in. Would that we could see the wall of separation between the church and the world made broader and stronger. It makes one sad to hear Christians saying, *Well, there is no harm in this; there is no harm in that,* thus getting as near to the world as possible. Grace is at a low ebb in that soul which can even raise the question of how far it may go in worldly conformity. A garden is a place of beauty, it far surpasses the wild uncultivated lands. The genuine Christian must seek to be more excellent in his life than the best moralist, because Christ*s garden ought to produce the best flowers in all the world. Even the best is poor compared with Christ*s deservings; let us not put Him off with withering and dwarf plants. The rarest, richest, choicest lilies and roses ought to bloom in the place which Jesus calls His own. The garden is a place of growth. The saints are not to remain undeveloped, always mere buds and blossoms. We should grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Growth should be rapid where Jesus is the Husbandman, and the Holy Spirit the dew from above. A garden is a place of retirement. So the Lord Jesus Christ would have us reserve our souls as a place in which He can manifest Himself, as He doth not unto the world. O that Christians were more retired, that they kept their hearts more closely shut up for Christ! We often worry and trouble ourselves, like Martha, with much serving, so that we have not the room for Christ that Mary had, and do not sit at His feet as we should. The Lord grant the sweet showers of His grace to water His garden this day.

By Hello Mozart!
It's rare that I write a blog post for a specific band or song, but I felt this appropriate. Iglu & Hartly, haven't heard of them? You will. The buzz on the internet quite rightly says they "are really just one Jo Whiley play and/or well-received televised festival appearance away from becoming one of the summer's success stories."
It's taken me a couple of listens to really get them, but they're sickly hooky vocals, especially in the chorus, make their track 'In This City' one of the top contenders for this summers massive anthem.
It's late, and I can't be bothered to write much more, but the track speaks for itself. If you wanna know more, hit up google, they're one of the most talked about bands on the net.

Driving is a skill that is usually nurtured from constant practice. Of course, with a good exposure of tutorial, it will increase the efficiency of one's driving skill. It is undeniably true that some people have phobia in driving regardless of age. There are so many fears that cannot be expressed and overcome properly. Hence, the resolution is not to drive at all.
As we all know, how inconvenient it will be if you are always depending on other drivers to fetch you to places. It is still best if you can learn how to overcome the fear and start driving to your destinations by yourself. To do that, you can consider getting a better driving academy to help to boost your confidence and sharpen your skill.
If you are living in Selangor, I strongly advise you to sign up your driving course with Harmony Driving Shah Alam branch. Their service and method of teaching are fantastic and extraordinary in the sense that they are better than the rest.
Check out what they have free for new sign-ups:
- Free transportation to and from your doorstep to the driving academy
- Free L and P license
This sounds interesting. I remembered having to pay an amount of money in order to get the licenses after passing the tests. Harmony promises to give for free. This is pretty cool.
- Free PA insurance up to RM 10 000 for a year
Honestly, I am unsure if I have this included in my package. However, it is good to have insurance secured just in case if anything unwanted were to happen. This is a plus point for Harmony.
- Free food voucher
I am 100% sure my package does not have this. Harmony is really a very considerate academy knowing that many novice driving learners tend to get hungry due to long waits for their turns to get to practise driving. Hence, with this, they save you the trouble of psychological hunger disturbance while you are driving on practice.
- Free mystery souvenier
My driving academy is only particular with how much money I have to pay in order to complete my course. They only receive money and never in return give me anything. So, once again, this is Harmony's bonus point that other normal academies probably do not have.
While I was browsing their blog, which you can check out here: http://harmonydrivingshahalam.blogspost.com I noticed something very interesting. It is called driving simulation practice.
I took my license back in 5/6 years time. So I am not sure if this is a new trend of teaching that is not available during my time. However, I really find this impressive because it allows these learners to get familiar with the 3 main things underneath their legs as well as the steering and gear. To me, stimulation learning is a good method that somewhat permits you to experience it as though it is real but at the same time, it is 100% guaranteed safe as whatever you bang in the screen only ends in the screen. If you were to bang anything in real, that might cause a huge instant phobia and terminates your courage in continue learning how to drive properly. So, I must say that I am very impressed with this new method of teaching and learning of driving.
I have been focusing a lot on car driving lesson. The Harmony also have lessons for motorcycle.
Here's a summary of why Harmony should be your best option:
- Easy and fast registration process
- Affordable price which can be carried out in installments method with no hidden cost
- Taught by experienced professional trainer
- Enables learners to learn circuit driving comfortably with complete basic amenities
- Ensures learners are able to learn and test at the same place

Picking out one player as standout in any given week is difficult,but choosing one as Player of the Week in an FAI Junior Cup weekend is always that bit harder.
Players from across the country have claimed hero status for their respective clubs putting in performances that inspired Open Draw securing victories.
One such player was Joey McDonnell and such was his performance that he gets the nod this week.
Joey McDonnell inspired an Istanbull style comeback for Tolka Rovers Saturday side as they registered a second successive FAI Junior Cup scalp on Saturday.
The Frank Cooke Park side were trailing by three going into the second half of their fourth round clash with Saturday top flight side Malahide United.
However, just when it looked like Rovers were being ushered to the exit door McDonnell produced a monumental second half performance to force extra time.
The Tolka talisman hit a hat trick including a last minute leveler to force extra time. The front man also scored in the shootout that followed as Tolka reached Round 5.
McDonnell inspired Tolka evoke memories of Istanbul- Rovers reach open draw
Another hat trick hero over the weekend was Paul McMillian. The Junior International scored three for Kilmore Celtic as they beat Raheny to go third in Premier A.
Stephen Donnelly also deserves a mention for his winner as Usher beat Sheriff in the FAI Junior Cup in a fourth round clash Leroy Staunton and Darren McDonnell also stood out in.
Callum O'Donoghue was the star of the show as Everton won the Junior League Cup coming off the bench to score a match defining brace, which included a spectacular winner.

The Community Performing Arts Studio
To satisfy Yavapai College's stated intention of providing performing arts courses and community education classes in dance, music and drama, Yavapai College (YC) and area performing arts leaders jointly petitioned SOCUSD to explore options for upgrading SPAC facilities to accommodate YC and active community non-profit performing arts needs. An Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) between SOCUSD and YC was drafted and adopted, the sole purpose being to facilitate construction of the SPAC Community Performing Arts Studio.
Community Performing Arts Studio: With funding from Yavapai College, in June, 2017 construction was completed on remodeling the former SPAC rehearsal room/black box theater. This previously unimproved and underutilized space has received a fully professional grade sprung floor required for dance training, wall mirrors and barres, and is referred to as the Community Performing Arts Studio (CPAS). This unique venue is thoroughly equipped to also host music and drama auditions, training, rehearsals and limited-sized performance.
Through the SOCUSD/YC IGA, the CPAS will serve as home to:
1) Yavapai College dance, music and drama class offerings;
2) Area non-profit performance organizations' auditions, training, rehearsals & limited-sized performance needs;
3) An arts academy-level facility for those faculty-directed SRRHS training classes requiring this upper-level training environment, and…
4) Master class and rehearsal space for visiting professional companies during their residencies &/or performances.
Please Note: Further information and rental procedures for this incredible facility will be posted once the new policies & procedures are adopted by the SOCUSD Board of Trustees. Return here to learn more.
A Performing Arts Assistance Resource
The SPAC Community Arts Fund is dedicated to the honor of those Sedona community visionaries who have recognized the inestimable contribution live performing arts make to life in Sedona, and under whose leadership helped make the Sedona Performing Arts Center/SPAC a reality.
PLEASE NOTE: Although the SPAC Community Arts Fund is not currently available for the 2017-18 concert season, new funding sources with revised policies & procedures are being set in place. Please check back for further developments.
The initial fund was established to encourage Sedona-based non-profit performing arts organizations to use SPAC and have 50% of their facility usage fees paid by the fund. The goal was to create a long-term assistance program that has a lasting positive impact on Sedona's performing arts community and those they serve.
The Sedona Oak Creek Unified School District (SOCUSD) has embarked on a wide-ranging reassessment of policies and procedures regarding the Sedona Performing Arts Center (SPAC), it's usage, rental fees and technical needs. This began with a public meeting on March 5, 2015 at SPAC hosted by district superintendent Dave Lykins, with members of the SOCUSD Board and Sedona City Council also in attendance.
Reporting on SPAC's then 4-year history, and inviting direct community input on how SPAC might better serve Sedona, brought a wealth of enthusiastic, well-conceived ideas. A full report of the evening's proceedings is available here. With the initial combined support of SOCUSD, the City of Sedona and Sedona Chamber of Commerce, much has developed from that March 5th meeting and two followup meetings, one with the SOCUSD Board on May 5, 2015, and another with the Sedona City Council on July 29, 2015. This historic coalition has provided the support and funding for the initial SPAC Community Arts Fund described below. To these three key, forward-thinking entities, "Bravo!"
A Challenge:
Since SPAC's late-2010 opening on the campus of Sedona Red Rock High School, its local non-profit rental/usage fees have been perceived by potential users as being prohibitively high. For struggling non-profit performing arts organizations in the greater Sedona area, these fees were severely limiting their use of SPAC and its facilities. As a result, other financially more feasible, though technically less-than-ideal venues were sought out. With local non-profit access to SPAC being financially prohibitive, SPAC remained vacant for over 250 days & nights each year.
A Community Response:
While the school district reviews options for SPAC pricing and procedures, and to allow the SOCUSD Board sufficient time for exploratory due diligence, a local body of community-focused private and public donors committed to a two-year trial to establish the SPAC Community Arts Fund. Sufficient funds were donated to cover the 2014-15 and 2015-16 concert seasons, roughly the same time periods as the equivalent school years. Designed to encourage expanded community access and usage of SPAC facilities, these funds were made available specifically to Sedona-based non-profit performing arts organizations to pay 50% of that organization's contracted SPAC rental fees on a 'per event' basis.
In a joint effort to recognize the inestimable contribution the live performing arts make to life in Sedona, this public/private performing arts assistance fund sought matching grants and donations to total $30,000. All contributions were fully tax deductible. With no administrative costs, 100% of the funds were used for their designated purpose.
All donations to the SPAC Community Arts Fund were held in a restricted access account within the SOCUSD accounting system to be used exclusively to cover 50% of SPAC usage fees for approved fund applicants. The two-year trial was entirely successful. PLEASE NOTE: Although the SPAC Community Arts Fund is not currently available for the 2017-18 concert season, the goal remains to have this supportive community-based performing arts assistance fund re-established.
Additional SPAC-related uses of this fund will be considered by the fund's creators. With updated SOCUSD pricing & procedures finalized in September 2016, future use of the annually replenished SPAC Community Arts Fund will also be considered for SPAC's ongoing technical improvements and upgrades.
The Funding Year & Process
The SPAC Community Arts Fund will operate on an annual funding year from July 1 through June 30. Once re-established, applicants may be funded for multiple SPAC events during a single funding year. However, no single non-profit entity may receive more than 20% of the total fund during any given funding year.
Once fully funded with updated procedures in place, complete application details will be available via this site.
Once again, "Thank You!" to the City of Sedona, the Sedona Chamber of Commerce & Tourism Bureau, and the Sedona Oak Creek Unified School District for their meaningful support.

A Night To Remember
The 2006 NEA National Heritage Fellows Concert
A celebration was underway as members of New Orleans's Treme Brass Band paraded through the aisles of the Music Center at Strathmore. The audience enthusiastically joined in, jumping to its feet and clapping hands in time with the bass drum as the band mounted the stage. So began the 2006 NEA National Heritage Fellows concert.
Produced in partnership with the National Council for the Traditional Arts, the annual concert is the culmination of the new Fellows' awards week in Washington, DC. The Music Center was a first-time host for the 2006 concert, which featured performances and craft demonstrations by the Fellows.
Emceed by Public Radio International radio host Nick Spitzer, the concert's first act included cuatro maker and player Diomede Matos, who performed with his students, the Camacho Brothers, and his son Pucho; and blues pianist Henry Gray, backed by a four-piece band and demonstrating his legendary barrelhouse style.
Invoking a centuries-old family tradition, Finnish kentele player Wilho Saari demonstrated his skill on the 36-string lap harp. Saari's great-great-grandmother "Kantele Kreeta" originally popularized the instrument in 19th-century Finland.
Welcomed to the stage by her singing granddaughters, Haida traditional weaver Delores Churchill also appeared in the program's first half. Churchill noted that she had been a bookkeeper until age 45. "Then I became insane and became an artist," she recalled, prompting applause from the audience.
As Spitzer introduced Tewa linguist and storyteller Esther Martinez, he said, "Language is the music of the storyteller." Accompanied by her daughter and grandson, Martinez taught Spitzer to say a few words in Tewa and shared passages from her favorite stories.
Tight harmonies and sonic fingering are the hallmarks of bluegrass and gospel artist Doyle Lawson who, with his band Quicksilver, wowed the crowd in the program's second half. Dressed in a vibrant yellow suit, kumu hula George Na'ope brought Hawaii to the mainland, playing ukulele with his band after a traditional dance performance by some of his students.
Master santero Charles Carillo shared the stage with his blue-tinged portrait of San Rafael. Bess Lomax Hawes honoree Nancy Sweezey also shared the stage -- with a slideshow of photos from her decades long career as an advocate for the folk and traditional arts. The evening's final performer, gospel and rhythm and-blues artist Mavis Staples, kept things up-tempo as Spitzer called the 2006 class of NEA National Heritage Fellows to the stage for a group bow. The concert ended as it began, with the audience applauding, dancing, and hollering for more.
In the pages that follow, a brief biography of each Fellow is presented along with an excerpt from interviews that the NEA has conducted with the artists. Read full versions of the interviews at www.nea.gov/honors/ heritage/Heritage06/NHFIntro.html.

Angela Bassett Wants Dr. Amanda Waller to be DC's Version of Nick Fury
Posted: June 21st, 2011 by
WorstPreviews.com Staff
"Green Lantern" hit theaters last weekend and failed to reach the expected opening numbers that Warner Bros set. It was also trashed by critics. But Angela Bassett, who plays Dr. Amanda Waller in the movie, not only wants to return for the potential sequel, but for other DC Comics properties, similar to how Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) has been appearing in many Marvel films.
I didn't want to just come out and ask [the studio] that, but maybe I should have. It wasn't set up that way.
" said the actress. "
[But] it's just so different from anything that I've done before. It's great to just be a part of this really unique and larger-than-life world.
When asked about how big her character in the DC world actually is, Bassett replied: "
It's true and we thought about it, but they didn't really want to go that way.

DC just looks pathetic with their attempts to mimic what goes well for Marvel. The fact is, Marvel has better characters and better movies because of the story. i.e. thor was a great adaptation with a lot of well known characters, on the other hand Green Lantern had an aweful character, dumb villian and the other characters were not well done. DC is like a little kid trying to mimic his cool older brother, but failing miserably and looking dumber the harder he trys.
on June 21st, 2011 at 8:57:12 PM
Of course she does. She wants more work, not she has earned it.
Just get welfare instead, lady. Acting is too good for you.
And I like how she mentions Nick Fury, you know, because he's currently played by a black guy. Like she's good enough to suck Jackson's d*ck.
on June 21st, 2011 at 9:13:13 PM
yes get welfare
America needs a spokeswoman on why 300 million people need to be on welfare and have government healthcare, and live in government housing
that way we have enough time to see James Cameron's AVA TARD 1235 and 6
on June 21st, 2011 at 9:45:13 PM
Of course she does, shes gotta pay the bills somehow.
on June 21st, 2011 at 9:46:02 PM
Shes a great actress in my book and should get more roles.Very strong woman and her role in Strange Days and being Laurence Fishburne's punching bag in Whats' love have to do with it was great.
on June 21st, 2011 at 9:47:14 PM
Amanda Waller is a squat lady but they get sexy Bassett instead. Whatever.
"It's great to just be a part of this really unique and larger-than-life world."
How sad. She has absolutely no self-respect. No dignity either, whoring herself out just to get included in the sequels.
on June 21st, 2011 at 9:50:56 PM
Bando, Strange Days was utter trash. Dunno how you or anyone else could watch that film without rinsing your brain out with Drano Dahmer-style afterwards. Worse thing to have Cameron attached in any capacity since Piranha 2.
And Bassett, she was good in like one film, that black love story film written by that black woman, or man or something, dunno, and I say that only because that's all I've ever heard.
She's been pretty much typecast as a bureaucratic lackey ever since. And not a very good one.
on June 21st, 2011 at 9:58:08 PM
I like that movie and it has some great performances by Ralph Fiennes,Tom Sizemore,Vincent Dnofrio,William Fichtner, and back then it was the mid 90s so everyone was making some bullsh*t story about that Y2k sh*t and the world ending in the 2000s
I have the movie and I saw it years ago I'll give it a go again to see if it was dumb or not now that i'm older.Katrhyn Bigelow directed that BTW
on June 21st, 2011 at 10:52:50 PM
WTF was Amanda Waller doing debuting in a Green Lantern movie, anyway? If she didn't say her name out loud...no one would have realized that it was even her.
on June 21st, 2011 at 11:06:48 PM
I'd tap that.

BREAKING NEWS: An actress who hasn't done anything worthwhile in 10 years, wait, scratch that, EVER, wants to be featured in a highly profitable series of films for the "Love of the Character"
on June 22nd, 2011 at 1:41:48 AM
Looks like Prince and Uhura ad a sprog,
on June 22nd, 2011 at 1:47:09 AM
Bassett is still hot after all these years, even when she's portraying the dikey Amanda Waller. Geoff Johns recently made a comment about their intention to use her to bridge the films in the way that Marvel uses Fury. It makes good filmsense to use a federal entity to bridge all these superheroes since it would quickly happen that way in real life.
They've already given this Amanda Waller a great backstory in the movie comics. She's a vet of the first Gulf War where she encountered Abin Sur and an alien criminal he was hunting and was recruited to top secret CIA program, hence her interests when they later find Abin's corpse in the movie.
on June 22nd, 2011 at 2:42:25 AM
i disagree with some of u.
Bassett has a good body of work under her belt. She has worked with a LOT of great people in the industry. I dont think she NEEDS the money or work like some of u are claiming. Its not like she's a nobody. She most likely has more money in da bank than all of us. It could be that she just f*ckin enjoyed being a part of a project that big. i think any actor would. like she said, she never really been in anything like that. no reason to disrespect her
on June 22nd, 2011 at 4:29:10 AM
^^to add to that..Bassett will next be in "This Means War" co-starring Chris Pine, Tom Hardy, and Reese Witherspoon..she again will play a government agent
on June 22nd, 2011 at 6:00:07 AM
@Fat Friar
Marvel is DC's older brother?Marvel has better movies?First of all DC predates Marvel for about 20 years.And let's take a look at some Marvel movies(trash):Ghost Rider,Daredevil,Elektra,Fantastic Four series,Spider-Man 3,Howard the Duck.Now DC:Batman & Robin,Superman 3,4 and Returns.That's all I can think of.
on June 22nd, 2011 at 7:45:36 AM
@ Markoz
Returns is better than all of those bad marvel movies u mentioned combined
Bunny X
on June 22nd, 2011 at 10:08:42 AM
She's pretty solid as an actress. Even taking sub-par material and making it better.
She's not bringing up Nick Fury because of race comparisons, she's mentioning Fury because Waller is just about as close to DC's version of Fury. It makes sense to have Waller in most of the DC movies because (at least in the animated versions of her) she's interwoven into them all some way or another.
And are you going to blame her for wanting more work? You'd have to be an idiot sitting on a mountain of cash to not want to petition some extra work your way.
So can any of you who chastise her for this say that you wouldn't push for more work if you were in her shoes? DC hero movie franchise potential and what? You're going to say, "Naw, I'm good. I don't need to be in any more of those films." Yeah sure.
Personally, I love the Amanda Waller character. I'm not too well known of her in the comics, but in the animated works, they've shaped her into a very key figure in almost every DC hero's story. And aside from the amazing voice acting by C.C.H. Pounder, the character herself is very very good. One of the most memorable "non-heroes" showcased.
I haven't seen GL, but my friend told me about it and said for them to put Waller in the way they did was a disservice to the character.
But that's what I said the problem with GL was. Outside of the comic book circles, he is pretty much unknown. Like a tier 3 I guess. So of course any characters around GL would be even more forgettable.
on June 22nd, 2011 at 11:58:52 AM
I wouldn't say it's a disservice to the character of Waller. Bassett got quite a lot of facetime in the viral marketing. They didn't use her to the extent they could have in the film, but in the viral ads and the prequel comics, you get lots of good bits... such as how the other members of her ET study team include Professor Ivo and Jack "Starman" Knight.
I have a feeling her role in Green Lantern was a preface to the Man of Steel movie, and that we will next see her working with General Lane trying to capture Superman. Hopefully she'll end up being a love interest of Lex Luthor's.

The key players in the next 20-30 years will be neither Europe nor the U.S., but other countries. These states have different characteristics, but they're all actively transforming, modernizing and rebuilding, turning into regional and world leaders.Ruben Vardanyan Sberbank CIB Manager
I'm certain: if we want to remain among the world leaders, we not only must keep the best people in the country, but also attract such people from abroad, as happened, say, under Peter I. This requires solving two basic problems: expanding the circle of trust and planning horizon in society.Ruben Vardanyan Sberbank CIB Manager
Who can become the driver of positive changes in Russia? In my understanding, that part of society which believes that changes must occur and that we ourselves must participate in them.Ruben Vardanyan Sberbank CIB Manager
Each one of us has a sort of nuclear reactor working inside – for some just barely, for others full capacity. And if you want to succeed in business, you must stoke your nuclear reactor.Ruben Vardanyan Sberbank CIB Manager
The era of changes that began 25 years ago is ongoing. We're on the threshold of very complex processes relating to changing the system of managing society, technological changes and even a change of paradigm – ideas are changing as to what truly matters and what doesn't.Ruben Vardanyan Sberbank CIB Manager
We want to conduct charitable projects which will impact Armenia's future, helping it shift from the model of survival, which dominates today, to one of prosperity. We're trying to restore people's belief that the impossible is possible by creating mechanisms to implement complex, massive projects.Ruben Vardanyan
I think we live in a world where many decisions are made not for the sake of economic efficiency and business development, but rather the interests of mere enrichment of different groups of shareholders.Ruben Vardanyan Troika Dialog Own business and investment projects
Capitalism is a major, fundamental problem. When money is the universal measure of success, the system becomes incomplete and very many things suffer. And they especially suffer from the moral standpoint.Ruben Vardanyan Troika Dialog Own business and investment projects
I have a dream: to make philanthropy in Russia professional, powerful and systematic.Ruben Vardanyan
I think that in the near future Russian business will see quite a few bankruptcies and restructurings, since you can't eternally inject money into companies which are verging on demise, supporting the owners. Sooner or later we must switch from the model of rescuing owners to one of rescuing business.Ruben Vardanyan
I believe you have to base yourself on the past and look to the future.Ruben Vardanyan IDeA (Initiatives for Development of Armenia)
I believe in small business, but the small business that can't or doesn't want to learn from the world is doomed to fail.Ruben Vardanyan IDeA (Initiatives for Development of Armenia)
A key part of my business philosophy has always been trying to build a bridge between the rest of the world and Russia. Trying to bring investment, experience and knowledge from both sides.Ruben Vardanyan
I don't think charity is just emotions, you need to do something that is self-sustainable. It needs to be very professional, very systematic and results orientated.Ruben Vardanyan
I like social entrepreneurship. I like to create a chain reaction. However, it's very important to make it self-sufficient, like a business. Just giving money is not enough; you need to provide execution, execution, execution.Ruben Vardanyan
I believe one of the greatest assets of such schools as UWC Dilijan is that representatives of various nationalities learn one another's cultural values preserving their own identity.Ruben Vardanyan IDeA (Initiatives for Development of Armenia)
Philanthropy usually means you're giving money and forgetting about it. I am quite actively involved in the management decisions. It's like capitalism... Keeping all this pressure, being a tough investment banker, but delivering results for charities.Ruben Vardanyan Troika Dialog Moscow School of Management SKOLKOVO Manager

A new online dating instant messenger program has now made it more important than ever to learn how to recognize the warning signs of a romance scammer. This program has the capability of allowing one person instant messenger access to multiple online dating sites at the same time. This means that while one person joins several online dating websites, he (it's targeting men right now) can login to this instant messenger program and access all those dating sites at once instead of going to each one by itself. This means that he can be chatting with women from multiple dating sites at the same time through one simple program.
What does this mean? It means that a typical group of romance scammers who have this instant messenger program can do in minutes what it may normally take hours for them to do. It means contacting more potential victims in one shot where it would have previously taken them much longer to do. It means that they no longer have to work on one dating site at a time. They can access who knows how many of the dating sites they "work" on to reach more and more victims. It means more people are going to get hurt unless they learn how to recognize the romance scam warning signs.
The article is HERE.
There are many websites available to see the warning signs of how to recognize a romance scammer. Some of the best signs are:
1. Their grammar does not match their education level they claim to have or job level or location where they live. There grammar can be horrible one minute and nearly perfect in the next minute. You notice discrepancies in grammar from one email to the next or from one day to the next, or even within a single chat session.
2. They push you to move from the dating site or social network such as Facebook to chat on Yahoo Messenger or Skype, although now this new online dating site messenger program could change this as well. Be very careful of anyone who is pushing you out of your comfort zone.
3. They push you to use your regular email account instead of the dating site email. It is much safer for you to remain within the dating site email but if you do switch to personal email, create a specific account just for that and don't let them know your normal email address.
4. You have checked their IP address from the email to your personal account and the country of origin of their emails is Ghana or Nigeria or even Malaysia or anywhere else outside the normal range of the area where they say they live.
5. Their profile gets removed from the dating site almost immediately after they are contacting you. They do this for several reasons, one being that they paid by stolen credit card and their profile was removed by the site, two being that they don't want you to be able to compare anything they say from this point on to what was said in the profile because they will be creating a specific profile to become exactly who you are looking for. But the reasons they give for why the profile is no longer available is because they claim to already have found the one they were looking for when they found you.
6. They tell you they love you within the first few minutes or first few days/weeks. Falling in love that quickly especially with someone you have not even met in person does not happen. Real love takes time for two people to get to know each other in all types of situations. Scammers sweet talk their victims into a false sense of security and romance, creating a dream come true.
7. They always seem to have reasons why you cannot meet in person. Job, family, illness, business trips, car problems. If you cannot meet your online interest within a few weeks time, become very suspicious. Remember, it is much safer to keep your online dating parameters within local distance ranges that allow for face to face dates.
8. No matter where they claim to be, suddenly the mention of Nigeria or Ghana comes into their story for whatever reason. It may be business trips, or job contracts. It could be to retrieve an inheritance. It could be lots of reasons. Whatever the reason, the mention of Nigeria or Ghana is the 100% proof you need that this is indeed a romance scammer.
9. They want your phone number, address, or other personal information almost immediately. They want to hear your voice. They want to send you a gift. Do not give out this information to anyone until you know this is not a romance scammer.
10. They are sending you love letters or love poetry that is not in the same type of grammar and tone that they normally email you in. This is because they are using love letter and love poetry websites and doing a copy/paste of the letters into your email they send you. It's all part of the social profiling/social engineering that they are doing to build up your relationship with them so they can start asking you for money.
11. They claim to be ready to come "home" to be with you but suddenly they've been in an accident and need money for the hospital, or customs is holding them up at the airport for some reason, they need something called BTA (Basic Travel Allowance) which does not exist, they have been mugged, their child has gotten sick...many many stories and all scams. They are now trying to get you to feel responsible for them because you love them and they want you to send them money that they will pay you back with when they see you. Only they will never be actually coming to see you. They will just find more and more reasons to ask you for money.
12. They send you flowers, teddy bears, candy, and soon after that they ask you to accept a package for them from a "client" or some other person they have explained to you. You are then to forward that package on to them or to another person. This is called reshipping and is a felony that can land you in prison. Do not give them your home or work address. They send you the gifts so they can confirm the address is correct, then try to start this reshipping project through you.
13. They tell you they cannot cash their paycheck, or some other problem they are having with checks and money while they are overseas, so they ask you to open a bank account for them or just use your own bank account and cash the checks for them. They may even ask you to keep some of the money for yourself but send the rest to them via Western Union. Do not do this under any circumstances. Just like the reshipping, this is illegal and the checks or money orders you receive are counterfeit. Even if your bank says they have cleared in the next few days, eventually you will end up owing your bank back for any of that money you take out. Never send cash overseas to anyone you have never met in person face to face. Don't send cash to anyone you have only met online and/or by telephone.
14. You talk to them on the phone or in voice chat and you notice that they have an accent that does not fit who they say they are or where they are from.
15. They ask you tons of questions but refuse or stall at answering your questions. When they do answer your questions it is only after a long pause (while they go online and look up the answer). For this reason, ask them as many questions as you can think of. If they cannot respond to reasonable questions immediately, do not trust that they are who they claim to be.
There are many, many more warning signs than these alone. The point is, deep down inside us we have this thing in our gut telling us when something doesn't feel right. If you are using online dating and you start feeling this thing in your gut saying "Whoa! Hold up a bit!" then listen to it. The longer someone is involved in a romance scam the more difficult it is to convince them that it is a scam and the more money they will lose, in addition to being more emotionally damaged. Listen to your gut. Don't let a profile photo and a lot of romantic talk get the best of you. If you need help knowing for sure, just come to us. That's what we are here for. You don't have to give up online dating or using social networking sites. Just learn how to use those sites safely.

Setting Sail
On March 31st 2017 I packed my bags and got rid of things I didn't need; I said my last goodbyes and gave my last hugs. On April 1st, the next day, I took my bags, hopped on the plane and headed to California. I had no plans for who I was staying with; I had no plans to adopt any 9-5 jobs and I had no plans for earning money. The only thing I knew, was to follow my spirit, and I did just that.
California had been calling me for some time now. At first I thought it was just a fun idea to come out here with my boys, do our music, perform and explore. So for a while I had put the idea off. One year went by and the voices of my spirits become stronger. Everything around me had said California. From T shirts, to books, down to a brand of veggie burgers. I was even having a random conversation about cats, and the lady I spoke with told me that she knew a cat that was oddly called Cali. This was how I knew I could no longer stray from what the great divine was trying to tell me: that there is something out there for me.
Because I chose to make that big decision to leave New Jersey, and go on "blind faith", I was rewarded with a safety net, staying with two friends, one of whom I've known for 14 years now. Staying with like-minded people like myself, I've been given the gift of living with other healers with great humor, compassion and purpose. The only job I have been working on, is the original one the Lord has given me: which is to work on my emotional, mental, physical and spiritual health. I have a good chunk of change in my pocket, and I am not worried about anything.
I've been told that home is where the heart is; that no matter where you go, you are home; you are free. I agree with this. I also know to follow my spirit when it calls me to move forward on my journey. I was meant to come to Cali to get completely out of my comfort zone. Had I stayed in Jersey I would have spent money frivolously, stayed in my doubtful state of mind, taking everything for granted and would have kept myself trapped in a dark box of self-doubt. Making this move meant, I couldn't spend too carelessly because I didn't know the next time I would receive any money and from where. It meant being in an area that I am not at all familiar with, so that I couldn't leech on anybody that I knew to hang onto in order to hang on to old habits. Being out here, where the sun is always out, using a fresh state for a fresh state of mind is what I needed. There is more to come while I am still here.
I am coming back to New Jersey. When I am finished with my ascension, I will come back stronger, more peaceful, more purposeful, with more light, love and wisdom so that I can come back home, to make some beautiful changes.

The Attempt on my own life.
In 2013 I attempted on taking my own life. At that moment I did not care who will be affected by it. Everything was a complete blur. It was as if everything went completely black. It was a very sad place.
The Care
The doctors and nurses were working so hard to save my life. Even though I wanted to die. I felt absolutely helpless and hopeless.
The Setup
Before I was wheeled into my own room I was treated by a nurse who happened to be a neighbor of mine and who helped my mother in previous years with her knee replacements. I was thinking "Is this a joke". God saved my life and He is putting people in my life to help me. In my room I was greeted by a friend of mine who I not seen for over 30 years. I said to him "You know me. I have never did anything like this." He said to me, "You hit rock bottom. So the only direction for you to go is UP".
The Disability
This disability I have is a mood disorder called "Bipolar Mixed." There is a recent as of the date f this letter is called "Bipolar Depression".
The Trigger
Due to the passing of my sister from cervical cancer, caused me to fall into this Depression state.
Coping Skills
Coping Skills are used in ways to manage my symptoms.
These are the following skills I use:
1) Focalization – Shape of my Hand.
2) Listen to Music
3) Go for a Walk
4) Remove myself from the situation
5) Deep Breathing
6) Focus on Body Muscle Groups
7) Meditate.
Deep Breathing
I was in a situation where job distribution was taking place. Many people were speaking at the same time. So I made a walk towards my counselor and I did Deep Breathing to calm my emotions. Within minutes my mood changed.
I do hope my letter/journal help you to know my diagnosis alongside of knowing myself.
By Kimberlee
I suffer from sever debilitating mental illness. So many of my peers struggle with the stigma and everyday ups and downs. Many of us have side effects from medications. This presents more challenges, trials, and often times disappointments. People are often times misdiagnosed, hence the medication of Russian roulette of sorts.
There is so little help from the government to assist folks in getting ahead.
Experiencing financial problems, along families that don't understand- forces myself and others into a lonely isolative bubble.
Being positive when you wish you hadn't waken up in the morning is something I'm really trying to master.
Changes in treatment is overdue. A holistic approach makes so much more sense and is far more beneficial than a pill in many cases.
I recall having yoga built into one of my hospitalizations. It may have saved my life. It was the one thing that gave inner peace and changed my perspective on my entire being. Maybe just maybe hypnosis could take the place of shocking the brain into a controlled seizure through ECT. Perhaps this could help irradiate the horror of PTSD.
In a holistic reality, good hypnotherapy could possibly erase addictions like drugs and alcohol, maybe even OCD behaviors.
Planting, harvesting, and nature in general can just halt many symptoms of mental illness. How can we get the government and medical insurance to see things from a holistic point of view?

Speech & Language
What is speech, language and communication?
- Speech is the sounds that build up and are expressed in words.
- Language involves talking to describe or hold conversations, and understanding what other people say
- Communication is the way in which language is used to interact with others (The Communication Trust, p.3).
Why is Speech and Language important?
Speech, language and communication are all needed to express feelings, describe events, share news; and without any one of these, what children say and understand can become confused (The Communication Trust, p.3).
How does the Children's Centre support children's Speech and Language?
Everyone who works with young children has a responsibility to support their language development, and we do this in the Children's Centre in partnership with parents because: 'Early language development is critical for future learning and school readiness' Foundation Years 2013, p1).
Communication and Language is one of the prime areas in the revised Early Years Foundation Stage, for which we plan activities to support children's learning and development. Hence, in our activities; staff members provide the opportunities for young children to make choices; sing songs and rhymes; listen to stories; play and interact with other children and adults; as individuals and in groups. All of these experiences support children's language development.
Babies cry or smile to communicate, and toddlers may have a tantrum which again is an expression of their feelings, as they have not yet developed words to express themselves verbally. This is all part of their learning and development, however language development can be encouraged by talking to them in simple sentences about everyday experiences such as going to the shops, repeating rhymes, and sharing a story book together.
Parents and staff may use baby signs and symbols to support the communication of children. We have staff within the centre trained in Baby Signing to support babies' communication. However, sometimes parents may have concerns about their children's language development, and staff can help them by referring them to a Chatterbox session run by the Speech and Language Therapy Service.
Speech and language therapists will offer intervention to those who have been assessed to have a communication delay / needing further support. They work closely with the Children's Centre in the community, to support individual children's needs. "Early identification of speech and language difficulties is absolutely essential. The sooner a child's needs can be identified the greater chance there is to make sure they have the correct support so they don't get left behind" (I CAN p,1).
Please refer to our What's on page for details on Chatterbox and other sessions to support early language and communication in children.

A survey of the natural world will reveal many superlatives, such as the tallest mountains, the deepest valleys, the longest rivers, and so on. Then there are those natural superlatives that are events rather than constants. Sometimes these are lovely, such as the largest rainbow ever recorded or the largest tree on the planet. Sometimes they are the opposite of lovely, such as, oh I don't know, something terrifying like the biggest hurricane ever or killer death asteroid strikes. Those kinds of things? Not quite as beautiful and majestic as the world's biggest tree, are they?
5 The Largest Earthquake
And let's finish it off with the largest ever earthquake (of recorded history, to be fair – there was probably an even bigger dustup back when Pangaea was calling it quits) which was a mind-shattering Richter-rattling 9.5! The Valdivia earthquake occurred on May 22, 1960, off the coast of Chile, and its shockwaves and tsunami surge reached all the way to Japan. The total amount of dead has never been accurately tallied, but estimates are between 2,230 and 6,000. Hopefully dear Mother doesn't decide to dole out anything bigger than this one for the rest of humanity's existence.
4 The Largest Recorded Tsunami (Height of 1,720 Feet Tall)
Moving on to terrifying waves! The largest recorded tsunami ever reached an absolutely terrifying height of 1,720 feet tall. Jesus… Christ! Now, to be fair, that was the highest elevation where it wrought destruction, so the actual tidal wave may have been shorter, but it splashed its way on up to land at that elevation and that is enough to make us never want to visit Lituya Bay, Alaska. Who knows, the wave may come back and try for that 2,000 foot mark.
3 1815 Eruption of Mount Tambora in Indonesia
Now if you prefer your records to come with massive explosions attached, then look no farther than the 1815 eruption of Mount Tambora in Indonesia. While there were surely larger eruptions before it, this is the largest one we have on solid record, and it was a bid enough eruption for us, thank you. The volcano achieved a VEI of 7, which may mean nothing to you, but to experienced volcanologists it means: "Holy crap, that was a Volcanic Explosivity Index score of SEVEN? That's like such a big explosion! The eruption killed 92,000 people, which is like ten billion in today's people (no it's not). Oh, and this volcano? Yeah, still active.
2 Temperature Measured in Antarctica -129 Degrees
Moving in the other direction, the planet we call home is also capable of producing instant-snot-freezing cold temperatures, such as the record for cold! That? A balmy -129 degrees. That is, so we're clear, enough freezing to freeze water five times over again! (Not that it works like that.) Not surprisingly, that temperature was measured in Antarctica and not surprisingly we are only a little bit sad not to have been there to see it.
1 The Hottest Temperature
The hottest temperature ever recorded on planet earth was a lung-searing 134 degrees Fahrenheit. (We mean, for the record, the hottest naturally occurring air temperature and we are aware that things like magma and forest fires and such are hotter than this.) That awful reading was taken in 1913 in Death Valley, CA. But I bet it will be passed sooner than later…
Now that we have explored some of the most awful records ever set, let's all go hide our heads in the sand! But not the sands of Death Valley, of course, because it's too damn hot there. Or, get this, cold… the world's hottest place gets down to the 30s most every winter!
