NBA trade news: Big Kevin Durant and LeBron James predictions made by ex-Lakers forward
LEBRON JAMES will lead the Los Angeles Lakers to an NBA championship - but not before Kevin Durant wins four in a row with the Golden State Warriors.
That's the prediction of former Lakers forward Metta World Peace, who spent four years in Los Angeles.
James swapped the Cleveland Cavaliers for the Lakers in the summer and it was expected that a superstar would follow him to southern California.
But Luke Walton and co. failed to recruit any other big names this year, leaving the four-time MVP with an inexperienced support cast for his first season in the Western Conference - albeit one that is also stacked with young talent.
Given the Warriors' dominance, having swept James and the Cavs for a second straight title and a third in four years back in June, the Lakers appear unlikely to add a first crown in eight years with the Houston Rockets also posing a strong threat in the West.
LeBron James and Kevin Durant could eventually join forces in L.A.
But World Peace, who played in all of the Lakers' 23 play-off games on their way to the 2009-10 title, is confident that the 33-year-old will add to his ring count at some point during his four-season spell in L.A.
Yet he first expects Lakers-linked Durant and the Warriors to win another championship this year, and possibly even achieve a fourth straight triumph in 2019-20 - a feat that would represent the second-longest title-winning streak of all time behind the Boston Celtics, who won eight in a row between 1959 and 1966.
Speaking to TMZ Sports, World Peace said: "He's definitely going to win a championship in L.A.
"He's destined... When you're destined, you know, sometimes you're the chosen one. You can tell when somebody is chosen basketball-wise. You can tell.
LeBron James has won three career titles, two in Miami and one in Cleveland
You can tell when somebody is chosen basketball-wise. You can tell.
"But not this year because I think Kevin Durant will three-peat. I think Kevin Durant might four-peat, quite honestly."
The Lakers parted ways with Luol Deng recently, buying out the veteran forward before the August 31 deadline via via the league's waive and stretch provision.
That could open up the chance for the Lakers to move for Durant, who will have the option to become a free agent, because of the $38million (£29.3m) that it will leave them in salary cap space.
But World Peace declared that he has no idea whether the Lakers are planning to make a blockbuster move to tempt Durant to team up with James.
LeBron James will play in the Western Conference for the first time in his career
Kevin Durant has won two titles in two years with Golden State
He added: "I don't know the reasons [for buying out Deng], I couldn't tell you. I don't think about the reasons to tell you the truth.
"But I can tell you - I can see Kevin winning four, I think so. I don't know where he's going to be at next year."
In addition to Durant, the Lakers have also been linked with moves for fellow superstars Kawhi Leonard of the Toronto Raptors, Warriors guard Klay Thompson and the Minnesota Timberwolves' Jimmy Butler.
Training camps ahead of the 2018-19 season meanwhile open in just over two weeks.

What are yeast infections?
Yeast infections (candidiasis) are very common and mostly harmless infections that can occur on the skin, on mucous membranes of the mouth, the vagina, the penis, the esophagus, the chefs rectum, and of the urinary tract.
There are a few special situations where yeast infections have a unique significance such as in newborns and in cheap jordans online pregnant women. Another special situation is in patients with compromised immunity such as in AIDS patients and others. The most severe, life threatening form of NFL Jerseys Cheap candidiasis is when the yeast bugs gets into the blood stream (sepsis), into the peritoneal cavity (peritonitis) or into the cerebrospinal fluid (meningitis). Fortunately these latter severe conditions are rare. In the table above you will find links to separate pages where all of these conditions are described in more detail.

Dissertation Finish Line
Lori A. Flores offers tips for getting the thing done.
I received my Ph.D. almost four years ago, but I vividly remember the anxieties I felt at this time of year as I struggled to make it to my dissertation finish line. March had turned into April, my dissertation was due June 1, and going on the job market during my final year of grad school had taxed my mind, body and spirit. If -- like many people say -- the dissertation is a marathon, I was on mile 24 and ready to collapse. My exhaustion was so apparent that my adviser, my biggest and most confident champion, was worriedly checking in with me over email to see if I had gotten my writing mojo back.
Reflecting on what I did to get myself through that final push, here are 10 pieces of practical advice I would give to any in a similar position (some of these are targeted to dissertators in the humanities, but hopefully many will resonate for all fields).
1. Budget some time for last-minute tasks.
You have probably reached this point by making yourself a dissertation calendar or work schedule with all of your important deadlines. In working backward from your dissertation due date, budget a few extra days for technicalities. If you have not already begun formatting your dissertation according to departmental or institutional regulations, look up their rules. Correct your margins, create your table of contents and appendix pages, and clean up footnotes or endnotes. If you are using images and illustrations from an archive or another source, secure permissions that you need in order to use them. Obtaining these permissions, as I continue to find out, can be a lengthy and costly process. If you are using interviews or other subject data, make sure all consent forms are on file.
2. Seek out (the right) sources of inspiration and feedback.
If you are feeling uninspired, you may need to change up your routine or scenery. If you have been logging many work hours but making limited progress, perhaps going back to reading may help get the thoughts flowing again. Are there any recent books or articles relating to your topic that were published while you were burrowed away writing or analyzing your data? Is there a colleague who would like to switch drafts of a chapter with you to get your feedback in exchange for the same? Sometimes we need a break from our own words and dissertation language and can benefit from immersing ourselves in the words of others.
If you find that you cannot get into a flow anymore working in your usual spot, why not give yourself a change of scenery by trying to work in a quiet outdoor spot, a different café or even a hotel? (More about that idea later!) The novelty of a new workspace might kick your brain into a different, exploratory gear.
3. Saying no is necessary.
While venues for presenting your research and feedback from others are valuable along the dissertation journey, it is important to say no to some of these opportunities in the final phases of writing. You may want to politely decline offers to organize a workshop or talk, or participate in one, because these things might be distracting and disorienting rather than a truly beneficial use of your time. Focus on the feedback you are receiving from your committee members, and save other types of feedback for whatever the dissertation may turn out to be in its next phase of existence (a journal article, a conference paper, a book or something else).
If others at your institution are demanding your time in ways you feel you cannot provide, you should feel right to say no. It was actually very empowering to reply to various requests, "I need to focus on completing my dissertation right now and unfortunately cannot be involved in/devote my time to this event." Any reasonable person will accept and respect this explanation.
4. Don't neglect your physical health.
Many others have stressed this (lately, in "Treat Yo Self Well") but it can't be said enough: do not neglect your physical well-being, because it is so deeply connected with your mental well-being. Don't skip that yoga class, morning run or hike with friends. Physical activity boosts endorphins and the oxygen to your brain, reduces stress, increases alertness, and gives you the energy to get back to work. If you think you don't have time to exercise, think about this: it's better to schedule an hour of exercise into your everyday routine than to lose precious days due to stress or illness. Other health-related advice: get enough sleep, drink enough water and get up from your computer often to stretch your limbs and rest your eyes (having experienced a recent eye problem, I can tell you that putting too much strain on your eyes is not fun!). Finally, carving out some time for the people important to you -- partner, children, parents, friends -- is essential. Don't let the final stages of dissertation writing make you a complete social hermit.
5. Budget some money for last-minute escapes.
So, this might sound crazy, but I finished a sizable chunk of my dissertation in a strange hotel room. I was tired of working at home and around campus, so I booked an affordable room at a hotel by the coast. I bought groceries to stock my room's mini fridge and shut myself in there for three days, disabling the internet and locking the TV in its cabinet. My reward, I told myself, would be using the hotel's hot tub at the end of the workday. With none of my usual possessions and targets for procrastination around me ("I should really organize my fridge/closet/medicine cabinet…") I finished two chapters in three days. To my bemusement, one of my committee members wrote back that it was some of her favorite work from me. Of course, this kind of drastic escape is not for everybody -- I had the luxury of being single and free of other responsibilities at the time -- but for those who can swing it, it just might be worth it. There are smaller escapes, too. Budget some money for a babysitter, a massage, a matinee or some takeout food when you need a little something to get you through to the end.
6. In times of writer's block, turn to your acknowledgments.
Whenever I felt that the words were not flowing, I always opened my acknowledgments file on my computer. Drafting that part of the dissertation, even for a few minutes, reminded me of the many people -- friends, family, colleagues, mentors -- who helped and supported me during my years of graduate school. I didn't want to let all of those people down. Writing those acknowledgments was a form of positive visualization; I would finish, and I would not let them down. Moreover, in writing kind words about others, it put me in a more grateful frame of mind and reminded me to be kinder to myself and more optimistic that I had the stamina to complete the dissertation on time.
7. This is no time for perfectionism.
The only good dissertation -- say it with me -- is a done dissertation. Many of us have this idea in our heads that the dissertation will be this grand opus that perfectly encapsulates all the knowledge we have acquired in graduate school. That thought can keep us researching, writing and obsessing over words and paragraphs for years. While the dissertation will certainly be an impressive, original display of your engagement with a topic, it will not be able to demonstrate everything you know or learned. Take a good look at the signature page of your dissertation, which reads, "This dissertation is adequate and fulfills the requirements…" While it is infuriating -- all I needed was an adequate dissertation? Why didn't anyone tell me! -- it brings you back to reality. Your dissertation does not have to be perfect. It has to be good enough for your committee, for now, for this stage of your intellectual development, for your degree and a diploma in your hand.
8. There is a point where the dissertation ends and the next phase begins.
I did not put everything in my dissertation that I planned to and finally understood what others meant when they told me, "Save it for the book." Whether or not you're in a field that requires a book for tenure, the dissertation is not the end of a conversation. You may go on to publish part or all of it, you might go on to teach some of it, you might present a chapter at a conference, or a student may email you a question about it one day. Try to be at peace with the information that did not make it into the dissertation, and try to look forward to your dissertation's next life or iteration, along with your own. In addition, if your readers are willing to offer it, ask them to divide their feedback into "immediate" and "future" (some will do this in the defense). That way, you will still receive valuable comments, but also the reassurance that they do not expect you to respond to all of their critiques by dissertation due date.
9. On a related note, corral your committee.
Depending on how many people are on your committee, and where they are located -- whether they are all at your institution or scattered around the country -- it is important to be proactive about creating a schedule with them to help you complete the final steps. Getting feedback on final chapter drafts, gathering signatures and scheduling and preparing for a defense are all things that you have foremost on your mind, but it is your responsibility to get them to priority level in all of your committee members' minds. Make their job easier by laying out a clear schedule, reminding them of your meetings and deadlines, and taking into account their own teaching and travel schedules.
10. Have someone waiting for you at the finish line.
Submitting the dissertation, particularly if you're doing it electronically, can be anticlimactic. You spend hours at a printing shop, or hours poring over a PDF, and then with one handover or one click on a registrar's website, it's done. Academe, I sometimes joke, has a way of making us feel like we can't spend too much time celebrating anything. On to the next thing: the job, the book, the next project. But this is a huge deal! You deserve to celebrate, and you deserve to have someone or many someones cheering you on as you cross that finish line. Ask a friend or family member to be with you -- personally, virtually, spiritually -- when you reach that milestone. In that moment, I was lucky to have someone witness that little click on the registrar's website and then take me out for pizza and beer. The air seemed fresher that night. The next morning, the sunshine seemed brighter and life was a little bit sweeter. To all you dissertators out there, I wish you that same feeling.

British newspaper TheSun is reporting that Mission: Impossible 5 is preparing to go where no film has gone before! According to them, M:I 5 will be the first film ever allowed to film within England's Houses of Parliament.
Their source says, "MI5 will feature numerous well-known locations in London but the Houses of Parliament is clearly the biggest coup. Tom Cruise will obviously feature heavily in the scenes." They also add, "You can imagine the writers are excited about what stints they could pull off inside the Commons." They'll also be filming in other major landmarks in London like the Olympic Stadium, and The Shard.
Guess there are still perks to having Tom Cruise be the star of your film.
And I've got to tell you: I enjoyed Edge of Tomorrow so much that I have an all-new level of interest in this fourth Mission: Impossible sequel. Hopefully Cruise and Christopher McQuarrie (who co-wrote Edge of Tomorrow and is directing this movie) can carry over their EoT mojo into this film.
If you haven't seen Edge of Tomorrow, then you have missed out on the coolest surprise of the summer! Go! NOW! It's my birthday. That's, like, a holiday. Tell your boss. They'll understand. Go see it, and tell me on Twitter what you thought of it.

Memory profiling in C++
Here we will discuss about monitoring the memory during a run of a C++ program. Monitoring the memory greatly helps in optimizing your code. Memory leaks (when memory is not released back to the operating system and the operating system stops the program in the middle because of the over-usage of memory), swapping of data (swapping of data between main memory and disk greatly reduces the performance as disk IO is slow compared to main memory IO), free memory available at any point of time, when and where memory is allocated and freed, inaccessible areas of stack data, usage of cache (proper usage of cache memory can increase your performance), heap memory usages.
NOTE: using memory management tools reduces the performance of the program (it could get 100 times slower :O ). So it should only be done for testing, and development and not during production phase.
first let us see the various tools freely available to work for us:
- debugger – just use your C++ debugger to keep track of memory leaks, memory allocations step-by-step. But, this process is very slow. Instead of compiling using g++, compile the program using "gdb".
gdb file.cpp
- sysstat – just install this package using the command (sudo apt-get install sysstat).
Using the command "free" will tell you memory statistics at that point of time. (you can use the -m option to show the memory in megabytes).
- valgrind – This is the best tool available freely. (to install type: sudo apt-get install valgrind). It has the various subtools:
- Memcheck – When a program is run under memcheck's supervision, all reads and writes of memory are checked, and calls to malloc/new/free/delete are intercepted. Memcheck reports errors as soon as they occur, giving the source line number at which it occurred, and also a stack trace of the functions called to reach that line.
- Cachegrind -its a cache profiler. Tells you which part code has lead to a cache miss. The number of cache misses, number of instructions executed on each line of code.
- Massif – performs detailed heap profiling. It produces a graph showing heap usage over time, including information about which parts of the program are responsible for the most memory allocations.
Valgrind can be easily used from the terminal. When calling your program executable just write "valgrind" before the call using the appropriate options, eg:
valgrind --leak-check=yes <myprog> arg1 arg2
To know the options and other methods you can refer to its documentation from here.
- leakfinder – This is a simple GUI application for windows to find leaks in your program with an basic inbuilt code editor.
- gperftools – this is a tool developed by google for use by developers so that they can create more robust applications. Especially of use to those developing multi-threaded applications in C++ with templates. Includes TCMalloc, heap-checker, heap-profiler and cpu-profiler.
- dmalloc – This is another tool available on the web.
The concept used in dmalloc is quite a simple one and we can ourselves make a simple library that can keep track of memory allocations and memory release. This concept is based on function and operator overloading. Here we will overload the new/delete operator. Thus, whenever a memory is allocated or freed, we can print the appropriate information. So let's start,
#include <execinfo.h> // this is a header file contains the backtrace function void *caller() { const int target = 3; // trace three functions back void* returnaddresses[target]; if (backtrace(returnaddresses, target) < target) { return NULL; } return returnaddresses[target-1]; } void* operator new(size_t size) throw(std::bad_alloc) { void* ret = malloc(size); if (!ret) throw std::bad_alloc(); cerr<<"allocate: "<<ret<<" "<<size<<" bytes from "<<caller()<<"\n"; } void* operator new[] (size_t size) throw(std::bad_alloc) { void* ret = malloc(size); if (!ret) throw std::bad_alloc(); cerr<<"allocate: "<<ret<<" "<<size<<" bytes from "<<caller()<<"\n"; } void operator delete(void* data) { free(data); cerr<<"free: "<<data<<"\n"; } void operator delete[] (void* data) { free(data); cerr<<"free: "<<data<<"\n"; }
Just write this code in a file and then you can include this as a header file in your program whenever you want to monitor your memory allocations and who allocates it. There is no need to write any extra code in your program. Similarly, you can overload the malloc/free functions if new/delete does not work for you.
good luck.

Looking back on it, I think Wesley Quaid was created in my subconscious the first time I watched the Clint Eastwood movie, Unforgiven. The ending gave me chills and goose bumps.
Until that time, the majority of my experience both in reading and in my writing had always been of the hero, who wore the white hat and the villain, who wore the black hat. There was no middle ground.
I'd tried to get that particular antihero character onto paper ever since, but for whatever reason, I could never make it work. He's had different names over the years, but I never felt right about him, so none of those early stories were ever published. I couldn't make him work until I started writing OUTLAW.
I began writing that particular story about two years ago and got stuck. I was inspired partly by a personal event and wanted to put that into a story, but about halfway through it became evident that wouldn't work, not with Wesley Quaid. He had his own story to tell.
Because I agree with Robert B. Parker that writer's block is just another word for lazy, I figured that since I was stuck on this story, I could write a series of short stories with the characters from OUTLAW as a way to get to know them better. Thus Wesley Quaid came to life.
The first short story he appeared in was "Pack of Wolves" that was published in Issue 1 of Pulp Modern. I've had a total of seven Wesley Quaid stories published and they have served several purposes.
First, they are all back story to the novella and that allowed me to write OUTLAW without working in flashback to explain who the characters were since they were already established.
Secondly, I was able to get to know Wes a lot better and once I'd accomplished that, I was able to go back and finish OUTLAW, even though it was no longer my story that I was telling, it was Wesley's. However, I think that personal event aspect of it is what finally allowed me to create Wesley Quaid. I had to put part of myself into the character.
So I hope you like ole Wes. I've got a lot more planned for him now that OUTLAW has been released, or perhaps I should say that he's got a lot more planned for me. OUTLAW is available for the Kindle for $0.99, but if you have Amazon Prime, you can borrow it for free.
Book Description:
The outlaw Wesley Quaid wants to put the past behind him and start his life anew in another place where no one has ever heard of him. When a mysterious woman he once knew resurfaces, Wesley discovers that a man can't run from his past anymore than he can run from the kind of man he has become.

Some kind of very wiry stemmed, close to the ground, dark green, single root for large ground covering plant with little white flowers with purple and yellow that hits here about this time of the year. Cows love it so I leave it. Doesn't interfere with spring grasses......kida like them reaching up and pruning the trees (looks nice) where they can reach.....they eat what they want.

When I tell people I'm from California, they give me a look that says "oh girl, you must be freezing." Surprisingly though, I've been loving the weather — this is the first time I've really witnessed the changing of seasons.
As I say goodbye to the colorful leaves and welcome the snow, there are some exciting changes happening to me as well. While I have been having a fantastic time meeting new people and traveling, I haven't been completely forthcoming about my experience in Venlo. There were some aspects of my living situation and work load that I found uncomfortable.
After talking with other au pairs, some friends and family, and doing a lot of self-reflection, I decided to search for a new host family. Luckily for me, there happened to be a family that was searching for an au pair at the exact same time. I visited them at their home in Breukeleveen, and I instantly felt a connection. The parents were so accommodating and kind to me, and the three children (Luca 3 yrs, Fay & Ivy – twin girls, 3 mos!) were adorable. We talked for hours, and they invited me to stay for dinner as we continued to chat over a couple glasses of wine.
On the phone the following night we reached the same conclusion – we were a match!
I have been living with this family for about two weeks, and I could not be happier about my decision. Love permeates this home. Music is a frequent guest, particularly PSY's "Gangnam Style" (Luca puts my dance moves to shame). I feel so fortunate to be living with a family that makes a conscious effort to make me feel comfortable and welcome.
Here are Fay and Ivy (left-right). I spend a lot of time with these two, and I love nearly every minute of it. They're fraternal twins, so it's pretty easy to tell them apart from each other (and you can see that Ivy has quite a head of hair). Fay's big blue eyes are often a source of amusement, particularly when she's staring at me from across the dinner table. It usually causes me to erupt in a fit of laughter, and I've had to excuse myself on more than one occasion to try to regain my composure.
And here is a better picture of Ivy. This girl normally smiles all the time, but every time I tried to take a picture, she was too intrigued by the camera to smile.
I live on a street that is nestled in between two lakes, yielding phenomenal views from my second-story loft-style bedroom. Here's a shot of the lake from the backyard.
The next couple months should be busy ones. My friend and I are trying to plan a holiday trip, maybe to Lille, Bruges, or Berlin. We've also considered a stay-cation in the Netherlands, perhaps renting a car and driving around to different Dutch cities. And the family has invited me join them on their upcoming trips to Belgium and Spain. It's really amazing how accessible everything is in Europe, and it reminds me of how lucky I am to be here. Stay tuned for news about my upcoming trips.

How to Build a Landing Pad for Deck Stairs
You may need a landing pad for your deck stairs if there is not enough room to build a continuous set of stairs straight down from the deck. This may be because there is limited space or that your deck is too high to safely build the stairs straight down to the ground. If you plan carefully, you can complete this project in a day. Follow the simple steps below to build a landing pad for a staircase from your deck or patio.
Step 1 – Design Your Stairs and Landing
To begin, design the stairs as if there will be no landing. You must measure the height from the ground to the top landing and then divide that number by 8, the standard height for a step. This will give you the number of stairs that you will need. It is also a good idea to draw this plan out on paper as this will give you visual diagram to follow as you work.
Once you have the measurements, you can then figure out where you will put your landing. For best results, plan to put the landing in the center of the stairs. Calculate the center from the measurements you took above. The height of your tread will determine the location of the landing.
Step 2 – Build Your Landing
You should allow at least 3x3 feet for the size of the landing. This is the standard size of landings used by home builders and carpenters. If you want the stringer for the next set of stairs going to the ground, add at least 12 inches to the measurement of the landing. The landing can be larger if you want, but it should not be smaller.
Step 3 – Frame the Landing
Now that you have the size of your landing figured out, you can begin framing. Frame the landing using 2x4-inch boards for the joists. When this is in place, floor it over using your plywood or other sub-flooring material. Use your level and square to ensure that everything is perfect. You will not be able to put down a floor covering if the landing is not level.
Step 4 – Finishing
With the landing and sub-flooring material in place, you can now finish the landing and stairs using whichever floor covering you wish, such as carpet or laminate.

Event: Book Discussion with RSF Author Scott Allard on Places in Need
Source: University of Washington
On November 14 the National Center for Children in Poverty (NCCP) at Columbia University will host an online discussion on the RSF book Places in Need: The Changing Geography of Poverty with author Scott W. Allard (University of Washington).
In Places in Need, Allard shows how the number of poor people living in suburbs has more than doubled over the last 25 years, with little attention from academics and policymakers. He draws from census data, administrative data from safety net programs, and interviews with nonprofit leaders in the Chicago, Los Angeles, and Washington, D.C. metropolitan areas and finds that the suburban demand for safety net assistance has increased with the rise of single-parent households, decreases in the number of college graduates, and higher unemployment rates in the suburbs. However, many suburban social service providers do not have sufficient resources to meet this demand. Allard advocates expanding funding and eligibility for federal programs such as SNAP (food stamps) and boosting the capabilities of community-based service providers. This account of suburban vulnerability amidst persistent urban poverty provides a valuable foundation for developing more effective antipoverty strategies.
Renée Wilson-Simmons, director of the NCCP, will join Allard for the book discussion. The talk is free and open to the public with registration.

Its all over! Boooo. I have never felt so devastated by the end of a television show. I was distraught when I found it would change over to chanel 4. I was worried chanel 4 would change the format a little or make it a bit more commercial, but I probably still would have watched. But without Mary Berry or Mel and Sue, I don't think it is gonna be any good. what a sad time for the bake Off.
As the final episode, and therefore the final installment in my Bake Off series, I thought I would take on the technical challenge and go back to basics. Here is my victoria sponge.
I actually tried a new ingredient whilst making it.
As your may know, me and my partner are currently trying to loose a bit of weight. Whilst I was out buying ingredients I noticed that Florence Quinine was just £1 at the mo, on a half price special offer. and for 500ml per bottle, that makes it more economical than standard butter. So whilst on offer, I thought I would give it a test run. Calorie wise, it's about 100kcal less per 100g, which is great. But the most astonishing thing is the fact that per 100g there is about 70g less saturated fat! That's enormous. the question now is wether it tastes just as good.
I would like to ask what method you use to make a Victoria Sponge. How do you mix it?
Personally, I usually tend to mix the butter and sugar together first. then I cream in the flour and sugar alternately. This method means you don't need to sift the flour, making it less washing up. It also results in an almost moussy consistency which when baked is lovely a fluffy. And it reduces the chance of curdling. On this particular occasion I had to sift the flour in as the flora cuisine meant the sugar and butter mixture was too wet to cream the flour into.
Over all, the cake went fabulously. Unfortunately by the time I photographed it it was a bit squished so the jam and buttercream had lost their definition, but who cares. It was tasty and thats the main thing! I really liked the flora cuisine, as it was super smooth and easy to mix. ano it did not need to be left out to soften for ages, so it cut prep time considerably.
How did you feel about the results of the final. Who do you think should have won. And do you think you will tune in once it has moved to chanel 4?

So you've got that beautiful pergola installed in your new home. Your family and friends visit for a cuppa and a chance to admire the craftsmanship. They instantly fall in love and want to know everything about your new building – what timber have you used for the beams? How are the posts supported? Their questions are met with silence as you try to translate the words. Which ones were the beams again?
Show off your pergola knowledge while you're showing off your pergola. Learn a little bit more about that structure that brings you relief from the sun while still allowing you to be outdoors.
Pergolas look beautiful but their construction involves an array of strange-sounding terms that today inevitably describe various pieces of wood in different positions and serving different functions. But pergola construction isn't rocket science, and neither are pergola terms. We've given a list of the most popular parts of a pergola here to guide your pergola expertise:
We use the term all the time, but what does pergola actually mean, and where does the term even come from?
It probably doesn't come to you as a great surprise that pergola has Italian origins, just as the structure itself is Mediterranean. The term pergola refers to a number of outdoor structures, from a shaded walkway to a freestanding structure with an open roof. Today, it can also be the extension of a building. It is supported by columns and posts and today is most popularly made of wood.
On pergolas abutting a house, the beam runs parallel to the side of the house, at the opposite end of the pergola. A free-standing pergola has two beams parallel to each other.
Supporting the posts, footings are the concrete piers created by pouring concrete into a hole in the ground.
This is basic terminology to describe a structure that is not attached to a home or any other structure.
Ledger board
On a pergola extending from a house, the ledge is a long piece of timber anchored to the wall frame. It is usually the length of the pergola and the same height as the rafters.
These are arguably the most important components of the pergola. Posts are the vertical support structures running from the footing to the beam to allow the structure to stand up. There are usually at least two posts for a pergola attached to a building or four if it is free-standing.
Purlins are optional smaller bits of wood than can sit on top of the rafters for added shade. They run perpendicular to the rafters.
Rafters are the horizontal pieces of wood that form the main part of the pergola roof. On pergolas connected to a house, the rafters are attached to the ledger board at one end and sit atop the beam at the other end. On free-standing pergolas, rafters usually sit on top of both beams.
Gable End
This is the term used to describe the triangular end of a roof often designed to add character to a pergola or verandah. It can showcase the pitch of the roof of any structure and is often fully customisable to suit personal preferences and tastes.
There you have it: a brief guide to pergola parts that should tell you everything you need to know about your new garden structure. Now you can fully appreciate the architecture and work that went into building the latest addition to your garden! I think it's time to get that cuppa and sit down with your families and friends on your new pergola.

Natural Cures for a Staph Infection
The staphylococcus bacteria can cause nasty infections on our skin or in our bodies, and can be difficult to treat, especially if the patient has had multiple treatments and is resistant to antibiotics.
The human body typically carries staph bacteria on its skin, and a small cut allows it to enter the body and erupt into an infection. Variations of the staphylococcus bacteria can cause skin infections, endocarditis (heart infection), food poisoning, pneumonia, blood poisoning, meningitis and toxic shock syndrome.
As staph bacteria has become more difficult to treat, alternative medications have become more important.
The best line of defense is a good offense. Wash your hands frequently with soap and hot water, and carry a small container of no-rinse antiseptic cleanser to use before and after public places such as grocery stores, hospitals, the library and school. When you wash your hands in a public place, use a paper towel to turn off the faucet and turn the door knob.
Keep wounds covered, and take care to keep wounds clean.
Keep healthy, and strengthen your immune system by using probiotics, eating properly, and getting adequate sleep and exercise.
If in doubt, don't eat mayonnaise-based products. Staph bacteria may be waiting in it.
If you are prone to staph infections and need dental work, talk to your physician about using an antibiotic before the dental work to prevent a staph infection of the heart, which is very difficult to treat with alternative and natural cures.
Limit tampon use if you know the tampon will be in the vagina for a long time and could possibly cause toxic shock syndrome.
When to See a Physician
If you suspect a staph infection, you should be tested. That doesn't mean that you have to take a prescription. You can use natural treatments that may work better than a prescription.
Staph infections are serious. They have evolved to be resistant to most antibiotics, and the infection could become very dangerous very quickly. Don't take chances. MRSA (methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus) is very dangerous and is becoming very common, especially in hospitals and nursing homes.
Topical Alternative Treatments
One of the best things to have in your medicine cabinet is tea tree oil. In medical studies, tea tree oil has proven successful in wiping out staph bacteria quickly. Simply use a cotton ball or swab to apply tea tree oil to a skin infection, and cover with a clean bandage. Repeat two or three times per day until the infection is gone.
Another natural treatment is to make a paste of baking soda and apple cider vinegar, and apply to the infection with a cotton ball or swab. Cover with a clean bandage. Repeat several times a day.
Mix 1 tbsp. of honey with 1 tsp. tea tree oil, and cover the infection with the sticky paste. Cover with a clean bandage, repeating several times per day.
Mix 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 3 tbsp. honey and 1 cup hot water. Soak a clean cloth in the solution, and wring out. Use as a hot pack three times per day, using new solution and a clean cloth every time. Be sure and launder these cloths with bleach after use to keep the infection from spreading.
Cut a piece of bacon or salt pork approximately the size of the skin eruption. Place the pork directly on the infection, and secure with a heavy tape. Leave for 12 hours, and it should bring the infection to a head. Then use bandages lightly soaked in tea tree oil, changed three times per day until the infection is completely gone.
Buy colloidal silver in a spray, and apply several times per day to the infected area.
Internal Alternative Cures
Mix 2 tbsp.of honey and 2 tbsp. apple cider vinegar in 2 cups of very warm water. Stir and drink. Do this morning and night.
Take acidophilus twice daily.
Supplements of olive leaf extract, oregano oil, grapefruit seed extract, turmeric and iodine have been shown to help heal staph infections.
Be Quick About It
No matter how you choose to treat a staph infection, the sooner you start treatment the better chance you have of gaining the upper hand. If you've had a boil before, you know how it feels at the first sign--start treating it right then. Work diligently at keeping your body healthy so it can fight the infection. Avoid stress, get plenty of rest, and do your best to keep it to yourself. Don't let others use skin products you use, such as soap, razors and towels. Discard bandages in a bag, roll the bag up tightly, and put it in the trash--then wash your hands.

Meyer Tannenbaum's mature abstract paintings began about 1970. By that time, he had absorbed such influences as Cubism, Abstract Expressionism, and Mondrian's sense of structure.
A series of star-shaped canvases—pictures that are both solid and fluid—started him off. These led into a long series of geometrics in both black and white and in color.
By 1984, Tannenbaum was working more fluently, aided by his decision to abandon brushes, and obtaining a kind of controlled spontaneity. The Gesture Geometric Series (1997-1998) are excellent examples.
His latest work of the last four years, the Direct Impact Series, now consists of more than 100 paintings and is ongoing.
Some of Tannenbaum's art reproductions and other related materials have been accepted by museums such as the Museum of Modern Art in NYC, the Baltimore Museum of Art, the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, and the Contemporary Arts Museum in Houston, Texas. His paintings have been selected for national venues by various curators such as Tracey Bashkopff, Guggenheim Museum, NYC; Ginger Gregg, Museum of Art, Ft. Lauderdale, Florida; and Henry-Flood Robers, Jr., Jacksonville Art Museum, Mississippi.
Tannenbaum has exhibited paintings in the International Communication Exhibit, Seoul, Korea; the Shin-Jung Gallery, Tokyo, Japan; and the Modern Art Museum, Saitama, Japan.

Almost six months into his leadership, Italy's Prime Minister Matteo Renzi has been attending a scout meeting near Pisa on Sunday (August 10) to encourage young Italians to stay in the country.
Youth unemployment in Italy is among the highest in the European Union.
"Renzi said that he would like to invest the budget set aside for the military in education because that's the best defence a country can have," said one boy scout.
Renzi and his wife, both former scouts, joined 30,000 boys and girls for the association's national meeting at the former estate of the President of the Italian Republic in San Rossore.
"If someone in Italy thinks that you're the future, they're wrong. You are the present. Stay in Italy, don't go abroad and try the impossible. Make the most of this beautiful country and have a can-do attitude. Best of luck to all of you," Matteo Renzi told the audience.
The Italian prime minister's appearance followed a surprise phone call from Pope Francis who also had words of encouragement for the scouts.

The reason – the stories shared are not only my personal experiences but thoughts, experiences, and memories from friends and loved ones. Cafe con Leite represents the warmth of coffee over a conversation with family and friends. It represents the energy that coffee brings to a day of adventure.

Bruschetta is a classic Italian dish. Most restaurants will serve you a Bruschetta as a starter. It is made in several different ways, with diced tomato style the more usual. This bruschetta, however, uses red capsicum (red peppers) instead of tomato.

Cooking Method

What is Reflexology
Reflexology is a non-intrusive complementary health therapy, based on the theory that different points on the feet, lower leg correspond with different areas of the body. Reflexologists work holistically with their clients and aim to work alongside allopathic healthcare to promote better health for their clients.
Whilst the art of reflexology dates back to Ancient Egypt, Indian and China, this therapy was not introduced to the West until Dr William Fitzgerald developed "Zone therapy". He believed that reflex areas on the feet and hands were linked to other areas and organs of the body within the same zone.
In the 1930's, Eunice Ingham further developed this zone theory into what is known as reflexology. Her opinion was that congestion or tension in any part of the foot is mirrored in the corresponding part of the body.
Reflexology should not be used as an alternative to seeking medical advice.
How does Reflexology Work?
There have been some positive research projects carried out with reflexolgy; however, as yet, there is not a large enough body of evidence for us to make clinical claims of effectiveness.
After one or two treatments your body may respond in a very noticeable way. Most people note a sense of well-being and relaxation; however, sometimes people report feeling lethargic, nauseous or tearful, but this is usually transitory and reflexologists believe that it is part of the healing process.
It is useful to give feedback to the reflexologist as this may show the response of your body to treatment. This in turn might help the reflexologist to tailor a reflexology therapy plan specific to your needs.
What does a reflexology session involve?
The first reflexology session will entail a medical history being taken, this will take about 15 minutes or longer depending on your medical history (this information will be kept confidential). The therapist will then use their hands to apply pressure to the feet, lower leg. You may feel areas of discomfort during the therapy, but this is usually fleeting, but generally the experience should be relaxing. The session lasts approximately one hour.
There is a view that Reflexology has helped with the following conditions.
Stress & anxiety, breathing problems, muscle pain and stiffness, back & neck pain, circulatory problems, digestive disorders, migraine, headaches, menstrual and menopausal problems, catarrh, sinus, eye complaints, calming the nervous system. Clients living with a long term debilitating illness, kidney & urinary problems or just as a relaxation for the mind and body.
The number of Reflexology sessions needed will vary depending on the condition and response of the individual Some people use Reflexology as a means of relaxation and health maintenance, seeing their therapist regularly every 4 - 6 weeks.
People receiving chemotherapy; Anecdotally, Reflexology has been known to help reduce the effects of chemo by relaxing and de-stressing the client. There is a belief that Reflexology helps to optimise the function of the liver and kidneys and helps the body deal with the very toxic drugs. Clients have also reported that Reflexology helps to manage side effects such as nausea, vomiting and constipation, fatigue, and helps to energise the client whilst they are receiving chemo treatment.
I had heard about the benefits of reflexology for both Mum and baby for having a healthy pregnancy and also in preparing for labour. I looked on the internet and found a practitioner and went excited to my first appointment. Unfortunately it was a disaster – the therapist talked all the way through the reflexology session, we didn't click. I felt despondent but didn't give up and eventually found Jan.
From the first moment I knew that I had made a lucky find. Jan is a therapist and a healer in the true sense of the word and I left the first session feeling elated!
During my pregnancy I saw Jan once a month and she helped me relieve both physical symptoms e.g. heartburn, lower back and pelvic pain and also emotional stresses. In the final weeks I saw Jan once a week to help prepare for labour and hopefully bring the baby on time!
I went into labour naturally four days after my due date – which according to my NCT teacher is the most common time and therefore the norm! I had a straight forward labour with no medical intervention. The only pain relief methods I used were a TENS machine and water. Charlie was born in the water after ten hours of labour. People are amazed when I tell them that my first baby came on time, that I didn't tear, had no stitches and that my labour was only ten hours. Charlie is a calm, alert, happy baby and I am a happy Mum. Thanks Jan, Steph C (Uxbridge)

Tiyaan is the pan-Indian movie, which stars Prithviraj and Indrajith in the lead roles. The movie is written by Murali Gopy and directed by Jiyen Krishnakumar. Tiyaan is produced by Haneef Mohammed under the banner Red Rose Creations. The movie itself is close to 2 hours and 48 minutes long, and after the end of first half – it has all the intensity that Murali Gopy films are known for.
The film revolves around a village, situated a few hundred kilometres from Badrinath, named Shankar Ghat that is inhabited by a secular crowd. Prithviraj appears in the role of Aslan Mohammed in Tiyaan. The movie marks the first association of the talented actor with Murali Gopy-Jiyen Krishnakumar team. Indrajith, the talented actor appears as Pattabhirama Giri, in the movie. Tiyaan will mark the third association of the actor with scenarist Murali Gopy. Murali Gopy essays the role of Remakant Mahashay, a godman in the movie. He has earlier teamed up with director Jiyen for the movie Kaanchi.
With the picturesque locales in North India shown in the trailers, the makers have piqued the curiosity of the audience. The film has been shot in locations like Nasik and Pune and extensively in Ramoji Film City. As per the reports the team shot for months in cities like Varanasi and Ladakh as well. We hear that there are some stellar scenes shot from the Kumbh Mela of 2015, along with several shots featuring 1000 artists in live locations!The pan Indian movie tells the story on a bigger canvas than that of the usual Mollywood movies. Satheesh Kurup wields the camera and the visuals are top notch.

Hi, anyone know if it's possible to hike up slieve league or is it very dangerous? Any other good hikes in donegal anyone can direct me too? Thanks
Not too worried about midges, as usually always a breeze to keep them away. Its the ticks I am more concerned about, must do full body scan once we finish the hike!
There will be no midges this time of year... esp if it is snowing!
Slieve League is worth the climb being the highest cliffs in Europe. You would have to arrange transport back to your starting point if you cross over the hill over one mans pass and come off at a most beautiful beach "malin beag". . When you are there you should check " Port" which is where the ruins of a little cottage that Dylan Thomas spent the summer in 1935 when he was 21 years old. Its a good 2 hr walk into the wilderness. Check out www.dylanthomasdonegal.com
We got savaged by midges at Glenveigh! +1 for the Poisoned Glen
Thanks all, have the proper hiking boots and good outdoors gear, so just looking for some hood hiking spots for 3 to 4 hr hikes in donegal, hoping to visit in next few months.
Glenveagh is beautiful too. Plenty go up slieve league as long as you are careful and have the proper clothing you will be fine. Errigal is covered in snow today as far as I know.
Errigal is a bit of a haul so it would depend on how fit your group is... You can walk up from the back of the youth hostel. If it's bad weather I would be cautious going up there.. (Edited as I realised no kids!)
The poison glen which is the other side of the hostel is an amazing place to visit and have a walk in. Beautiful scenery... Bring a map so you can see where you are going! You can do a long circuit there...
Thanks, also have you been up errigal? Or any other hikes in donegal that you'd recommend, no kids just adults
it's a beautiful walk... it's dangerous in the sense that it's a cliff but not a difficult climb or that you are likely to fall off... just don't go too close to the edge

In the fast paced world of digital marketing, especially for a company busy developing strategy and content for small businesses it is easy to forget to practice what you preach. With social feeds to update, customer emails to craft and meetings to attend, on site content is easily put to one side, and we at Marketing Ammo are not alone.

Yet writing a blog article has benefits that span beyond helping your search rankings, positioning you as a thought leader and helping clarify your products and services to a new audience. Content might be Queen but the ace in your pack is relevant Context.

A blog needs to be integrated into your overall digital strategy to really benefit your business – driving people from social media into your website and reaching new audiences and potential customers through unique content that Google and customers score highly relevant.
So if you are reading this blog then thank you, think about where you came from to get here and use that audience behaviour insight to decide your own blog strategy.

Ma'aden thanks CMA for clearance on issuing shares
Riyadh, 13th May 2008: Dr Abdullah Dabbagh, President of Ma'aden, the Saudi Arabian Mining Company today thanked the Capital Markets Authority (CMA) for approving the forthcoming Initial Public Offering (IPO) of shares in the company.
The offering shall be for 462,500,000 shares representing 50% of the company. Each share is priced at SR 20, which was determined by the Council of Ministers' decision No 72, dated 3/4/1427H. The shares shall be offered for retail investors between Saturday 5th July and Monday 14th July 2008 (corresponding to 2/7/1429H until 11/7/1429H).
According to Dr Dabbagh, "IPO subscriptions will be available initially for institutional investors and subsequently for retail investors. Ma'aden is delighted to announce the appointment of Samba Capital as the main underwriter and lead manager and JP Morgan as financial advisor and book runner."
Offered shares shall be allocated in two stages. 25 shares shall be allocated to each subscriber in the first stage. If all shares have then not been allocated, then each subscriber shall then be allocated up to 2000 shares as a maximum provided that the total allocated shares shall not exceed the offered shares. The rest of the shares shall be allocated on a pro rata basis.
Dr Dabbagh thanked the CMA for assisting and advising Ma'aden in preparing their IPO. He also said, "This partial privatisation of Saudi Arabia's national mining company marks a new era in the development of the Saudi share market, the largest in the region."
"We are also looking forward to a significant development in Saudi Arabia's industrial history. This IPO will be the foundation stone of Ma'aden's diversification beyond Gold and the development of its world scale phosphate and aluminium projects and also a unique opportunity to allow the Saudi Arabian people to share in our success and the mineral wealth of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia." said Dr Dabbagh.
The prospectus will be published soon, prior to the beginning of the subscription process.
About Ma'aden
Ma'aden was established as a Saudi Arabian joint stock company in March 1997 to facilitate the development of Saudi Arabia's non-petroleum mineral resources and to diversify the Kingdom's economy away from the petroleum and petrochemical sectors. Ma'aden is engaged in the development, advancement and improvement of all aspects of the mineral industry, mineral products and by-products and related industries in Saudi Arabia. In July 2008 Ma'aden offered 50% of the company's shares for subscription in a successful SR 9.25 billion IPO. Ma'aden has progressed towards realizing its vision of building a world class mineral enterprise and its mission of being a profitable, publicly owned, international mining company, while maintaining the utmost concern for human resources, health and safety, environmental and social issues.

Thomas Elias: Single-payer emerging as key election issue
January 22, 2018
After the contentious, sometimes raucous first debate of this year's primary election season, it became clear that issues like offshore oil drilling, affordable housing, President Trump's tax changes, immigration and border control would likely not be the central themes of the campaign to succeed Jerry Brown as governor.
The Democrats who dominate California politics essentially agree on all those.
That left single-payer health care as the likely theme for contention. It's an issue gaining prominence every day as Trump systematically hacks away at the Affordable Care Act (also known as either Obamacare or the ACA) and its links to Medicaid, known here as Medi-Cal.
The emphasis on single-payer is just fine with Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom, the former San Francisco mayor and early frontrunner in this race.
On single-payer health and other issues, this year will not likely play out as politics as usual.
Recommended Stories For You
Newsom may be best known for his pioneering 2004 order that saw his city begin issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples, a practice that courts shut down months after it began but still set a pattern for the rest of America.
Yet, in an interview earlier in the campaign, Newsom made clear that while he thinks what he did for gay couples was a major achievement, he considers what he did with health care just as important.
"Same sex marriage was profound," Newsom said. "We changed the whole trajectory of the debate on that. But I'm at least as proud of what we did providing universal health care in San Francisco. As the ACA is reduced, our plan will address people's uncertainty. It makes San Francisco uniquely situated to weather the health care storm. These kinds of causes drive me. That's why I'm running. Some things are bigger than politics. I consider health care a civil rights issue."
So you can count Newsom, who had a lead of about 10 points over second-place Antonio Villaraigosa, the former Los Angeles mayor, as a supporter of the single-payer plan that's knocked around in the state Legislature for the last decade.
The idea also gets support from candidate Delaine Eastin, the former state schools superintendent, while Villaraigosa and state Treasurer John Chiang, the fourth major Democrat in the running, like the general idea, but made clear in the mid-January debate that they want to see many details before backing any such plan.
Villaraigosa, 14 years older than Newsom, allowed that while he is "philosophically for it," he also worries about seniors being suddenly switched off the proven national single-payer Medicare plan without knowing what a new system might look like. "You have to have a plan," he chided Newsom.
The two Republicans in the debate, Orange County Assemblyman Travis Allen and John Cox, a San Diego County businessman, both were clear in opposing single-payer because of the large payroll taxes it would need to levy. San Francisco employers this year will pay $2.83 per hour worked for all employees earning below $97,000 per year.
Said Cox, "Why stop at health care? Why don't we have single-payer food? Why don't we have single-payer housing?"
Of course, Medicare depends heavily on payroll taxes, too, and most backers of a state single-payer plan suggest that Californians' contributions to that system could be switched to a new state organization, which – like San Francisco – would also tax covered persons based on their incomes.
This roused an objection from Chiang, who asked "How much are you going to increase payroll taxes? … Are we going to make it difficult to do business in California?"
While Newsom did not get into specifics of the San Francisco plan during that debate, it's clear his city's single-payer plan has not chased away companies like Mozilla Firefox, Twitter and more, part of a long-running business boom mostly fueled by high-tech companies and their talented workforce, largely drawn from area universities like Stanford and UC Berkeley.
But Newsom did chide his rivals, saying California needs a governor who's not afraid to act. He made the same point in the earlier interview. "I want to be known for looking around the corner," he said. "I will not be timid. We need sustainable political thinking, not politics as usual."
One thing that first debate made clear: On single-payer health and other issues, this year will not likely play out as politics as usual.

You know - people who seem to be the doubles of somebody else?
I was just thinking, after seeing an ad for that silly new adventure movie, with Steve Zahn (yet again!) as the comic relief sidekick...
You see, I see Steve Zahn as a sort of doppelganger for Sean Astin. Sean says he's tired of always being thought of as the sidekick, and I'm sure Steve Zahn does, too. They both often play sweet, funny characters, and they're similar size, age, build. So I figure that, whenever a director is looking for a certain character they might think "Hmmm... Sean Astin would be right for this... or maybe Steve Zahn?"
And talking about Sin Cit the other day reminded me of how Nick Stahl reminds me of Dominic Monaghan... don't you think?
So, what about the others?
*L*! For Elijah Wood... huh - would you believe... Christina Ricci? *L*! I know, I know, they're probably not up for the same roles, but those two do remind me of each other!
But for the life of me... I can't think of one for Billy Boyd. Can any of you?

Man! This craft! This is probably the first storytime craft I made in Adobe Illustrator. Put off uploading it for so long because it needed to go through a few updates to make it easier to cut out a few dozen at a time. The first one had pointy claws on each feet.
That was not fun to cut out.

Need a flannel story to go with it? Here's one from a ways back.
Need some books? I got books. Check out my alligator tag on Shelfari. Notice it's not alligators/crocodiles. Because kids don't care about the difference.
Nobody cares.
As a final aside in my post-storytime life, I have to say that the alligator storytime was always one of my favorite. There are probably dozens and dozens of themes from my early years before I kept track that I long forgot, but this was always a go-to theme.
