CJ EU (2). Ryanair on ECJ "Mons" ruling upholding EU law and airline's position on Member State jurisdiction for international transport workers
Milan, Italy - The integral version of the press release issued by the Irish low-cost
"Ryanair today welcomed the decision of the European Court of Justice (ECJ) in the "Mons" case which found in favour of the carrier by rejecting the CTC Union argument that the home base (ie where crew start and end their work day) should be the sole determinant of what court jurisdiction can hear disputes on labour issues. The ECJ has ruled that all current factors such as where the worker gets their instructions, where goods/passengers are loaded/unloaded, where the work tools are stored, where the work is organised/performed and where the worker returns to at the end of their duty should continue to be considered in conjunction with the home base as part of an overallassessment in determining jurisdiction. This ECJ decision does not change the status quo of Irish Contracts of Employment for Ryanair crew based across Europe. The ariline will continue to employ itscrew on Irish contracts of employment, and this decision onlyupdates the criteria for assessing the jurisdiction of national courts to hear legal cases locally and does not alter the law applicable to the contract, which is determined by the Rome I regulation (593/2008). All EU Member States' national employment legislation is derived from EU directives to ensure protection for employees in relation to areas including annual leave, maternity leave and sickness benefits. Irish legislation has adopted all EU directives on employment rights which are also covered in Ryanair contracts of employment and in some cases, offers better protection than some EU countries; for example,maternity leave in Ireland is more favourable than in Belgium and the Irish minimum wage is also amongst the highest in Europe".

making a list
Marcus Thames, the slugger from Louisville, is on a list that is both short and long at the same time. In its current issue (May 18), Sports Illustrated highlights the players who homered on the first pitch they saw in the big leagues. Minnesota's Eddie Rosario became the 29th to achieve that feat on May 6. Just the 29th. And yet, it seems crazy that it has happened 29 times! First pitch. Home run. Thames did it on June 10, 2002. The former East Central Community College star, debuting for the New York Yankees, took Randy Johnson deep at Yankee Stadium. Thames, now a coach in the Yankees' minor league system, is one of the few players on the list the casual fan might actually have heard of. There's Bert Campaneris, Junior Felix, Adam Wainwright (yes, the pitcher), Starling Marte, Daniel Nava and Jay Bell. Bell went on to hit 194 more homers and has the most of any player on the first-pitch-homer list. Thames is second with 115. He hit just .246 over his career, but he did have some thump, averaging a home run every 15.4 at-bats, a remarkable ratio. P.S. Kudos to Oxford High's Jason Barber, who is featured in Sports Illustrated's Faces in the Crowd, which makes note of his 0.00 ERA and two no-hitters this season. … Kudos also to former Mississippi Braves star Todd Cunningham, who went 3-for-4 with an RBI and two runs in his first big league start, sparking Atlanta's 5-3 win at Miami on Friday night. … Former Ole Miss star Zack Cozart and Taylorsville High product Billy Hamilton homered for Cincinnati, the only runs yielded by Madison Bumgarner in San Francisco's 10-2 rout of the Reds. Southern Miss alum Brian Dozier went yard (on his 28th birthday) for Minnesota, and ex-UM standout Seth Smith homered for Seattle. Cozart leads all Mississippians in the majors with six homers.

Today was little Johnny's birthday.
He decides to behave in school so he wouldn't get flogged. He gets to St. Marges and goes through his first five classes behaving. All of the nuns were super impressed; even told him so.
He comes to his final class of the day and thinks,
'OK, I've been good all day, now get though this forty minutes and I'm home free.'
Mother Superior, the witch herself, he thought. He stayed alert and answered ever question effectively; even Mother was impressed and told him so.
Five minutes before the class ended Little Johnny's eyes got heavy and he nodded out for a second.
"Little Johnny" Mother Superior exclaimed. "Time to go to the discipline room"
"No Mother! Please, I really tried to behave."
"I know," she replied; "But rules are rules."
So he follows her to that dreaded room. She then tells him. "You know, you are now twelve years old and at the age of accountability, so your punishment will be different this time trousers down, young man!"
So as he pulls his pants down, and he happens to glance back and passes out because of what he saw.
Little Johnny awoke to his mother's concerned voice in the nurses' office.
"What happened Little Johnny?"
"Mother Superior was gonna flog me."
"Yes, so why did you pass out?"
"S-- S-- She put a- a- belt on?"
"So!!!" His mother was getting upset with him.
"B-- B-- B-- But, it had a long wee-wee like daddy."

My Adam And Eve Roots Have Arrived!
1 comment:
The "peanut looking thing" that they sell with the Balm of Gilead is a lotus seed pod. Both plants mentioned are used in love works so it is a great substitute. While Adam and Eve root isn't endangered, its one that is being watched very closely. It is a hermaphroditic plant that produces via "corms" or what you have there, the "root". Each year it produces a new corm. So to have a true "adam and eve root" that is connected you must wait about 2 years. They can produce up to 4 corms, though unusual as each corm only persists for about 2 years. 3 is seen more often than 4 and is equated to Jesus, Mary, and Joseph or even the trinity, the Father Son and Holy spirit. As for which is which, if they are separated independent corms you can't tell, but if they are together the first is Adam, as God created Adam first, and then created Eve.ReplyDelete
Here is a photo for your reference of an Adam and Eve root with two corms.

Humanistic Anthropology
- LAST MODIFIED: 24 July 2013

- LAST MODIFIED: 24 July 2013

Humanistic anthropology as a declared focus dates to the 1970s and particularly to the formation of the Society for Humanistic Anthropology (SHA) within the American Anthropological Association in 1974–1975, but its roots go back much further, and there are numerous earlier practitioners who can be recognized as working in the humanist tradition. Anthropology was not alone in marking this distinction: The Association for Humanist Sociology began in 1976, and the Association for Humanistic Psychology in 1972. Each of these in its own way was responding to feelings that the larger disciplinary organizations were sacrificing their humanist components on the altar of a scientism seen as overly narrowing. This quite explicitly was not an antiscience or anti-intellectual move but one seeking to maintain a holistic balance that included space for a wider range of research and presentation strategies. While most scholars who wrote as humanistic anthropologists specifically rejected an antiscience perspective, there were those who rejected these more humanistic trends as overly interpretive, subjective, and unscientific. This debate continues in the discipline today, along with differing emphases on genre and content (e.g., balancing creative and analytical approaches in writing and film and whether and how to include products beyond the conventional academic genres such as musical or artistic expression). Although individuals differ in their focuses and emphases, in general, humanistic anthropology focuses on values and meanings in a holistic vision of humanity and its contexts. It is willing to draw on the creative humanities not only as data but as inspiration and genres for anthropological production, but it also demands the rigor of the sciences of humanity. It values work that bridges disciplinary splinterings to bring out the various processes of living as humans in the world, explicitly including the activities of anthropologists. It recognizes that human reality is a relational and processual thing-in-flux in which we creative primates actively participate and that our work has consequences in the world. It thus includes the potential to change social and physical environments through improved understandings of the diversely multicultural and polyvalent nature of our world. Trademarks of humanistic anthropology include emphases on writing and the creative use of language, with concern for the relevance of the discipline for the broader human world.
General Overviews
Because the foundation of humanistic anthropology as a named focus occurred both at the same time and in dialog with similar moves in other social sciences, and because there are relatively few published reflections or overviews, it is useful to also consider some of the cognates. Wilk 1991 and Anthropology and Humanism 1994 provide two overviews specifically within humanistic anthropology from a perspective well beyond its origins; Lee 1977 offers a more prospective vision from the founding period and is particularly interesting in comparison with Johnson 1989. Glass and Staude 1972 frames the parallel development of a named "humanistic sociology," and Znaniecki 1969 collects earlier works that were influential in both disciplines.

You have undoubtedly heard of the many benefits of regular exercise. Reduction in body fat, improved cardiovascular function and reduced blood cholesterol are all well-known benefits of exercise. In addition to these physiological benefits there are psychological benefits as well.
With all the benefits of exercise frequently touted by others or myself, am I going to present even more evidence that exercise is worthwhile and even necessary to live a long and healthy life? Yep! I sure am! There is no getting around the fact that exercise is the single most important activity that you can do to maintain and improve your health.
So what new magical benefit of exercise am I going to focus on this month? If the title didn't give it away, it's the elusive and poorly understood immune system. Your immune system is the only thing standing in the way of you and a disease. In addition, many authorities believe that heart disease and arthritis are also related to poor immune function. Without a strong immune system you are a sitting duck for any bacteria, virus, microbe, spore, mold, or med-fly that wants to set up shop in your body (I was just kidding about the med-fly).
So how do you maintain and strengthen your immune system in a safe and effective way? Yes, my friends, exercise saves the day again! Exercise is the one thing that can strengthen your immune system without the side effects of drugs or costly acupuncture treatments.
Enough with the prelude, just how does exercise help my immune system? Oh, let me count the ways:
1) Exercise stimulates the production of "T" lymphocytes.
In a recent study, a group of previously sedentary adults were followed to determine the effects of six months of moderate aerobic exercise on "T" lymphocyte and natural killer cell number and function. These subjects, most over age 65, were randomly assigned to supervised, three times a week, exercise programs. The results showed an increase in both "T" lymphocytes and natural killer cells for the exercise group, with no change in the control group.
One of the ways that exercise strengthens the immune system is through the release of "beta-endorphins." These endorphins are responsible for the feeling that is commonly referred to as the "runner's high." Surprisingly enough, exercise stimulates the immune system by the release of beta-endorphins. These endorphins in turn stimulate the production of "T" lymphocytes from the thymus gland with natural killer cell activity. These are the little guys who seek out and destroy foreign invaders in the body like a virus or bacteria. Exercise actually increases the number of these "T" cells, which is a good thing.
2) Exercise increases the metabolic rate, which stimulates the immune system.
Another way that exercise strengthens the immune system is by increasing the metabolism. The most metabolically active tissue in the body is muscle tissue. Muscle tissue is, to a large extent, the determinate of the metabolic rate.
The more muscle tissue one has, the higher the metabolic rate. The good news is that exercise has been shown to increase lean body tissue (muscle tissue) and reduce fat. So magically, an increase in muscle tissue from regular exercise will also increase the body's metabolic rate, even during rest. This increase in the metabolic rate, as a result of exercise, has been shown to have positive effects on the immune system.

Natural Vegetable Double Butt Belt Size. This is a special kind of leather, of exceptional quality, coming from the best choice of European Bull Raw Hides, nothing can be compared to this quality in the vegetable tanning field. The price refers to one skin of which is indicated the average size.
There are two kind of finishes among which you can choose:
Veg Tanned Double Butts
|Veg tanned leather is part of Italian culture and DNA. In fact, vegetable tanning was invented by Etruscans in 800 A.C. Today, it is one of the jewels of Italian industry ; in particular, vegetable tanned leather has its roots in Tuscany and it is there where today veg tanned leather is produced in the most noble and qualitatively better shape following tradition and experience that this land has accumulated over the years. Vegetable tanning skin process is in fact much more difficult than we might think: it requires lot of experience, it is needed to know in detail all various types of raw hides and all chemical processes involved. Tanning is similar to cooking good food: you have to choose the right recipe.
Coming from best raw choices of national slaughterhouse, our butts are derived from bull hides which are of the highest quality; they shows little or no sign or defect and thicknesses is generous as well as size of the skin that allow you to realize several belts thanks to its square shape and its length that can be up to meter and a half. Another widespread use of double butts is for saddlery because they are very suitable for bridles and harnesses for horses in addition to riding and motorcycle saddles . Finally, double butts are also very appropriate for tooling and engravings.

The Buck Rogers in the 25th Century Starfighter Prop Replica is now up for pre-order. Chronicle Collectibles has updated with a lot of new info on the release. This prop replica is limited to just 200 pieces. It's priced at $750 plus shipping. More info direct from Chronicle:
After a 20th century US Air Force pilot/astronaut is accidentally frozen in space aboard a NASA spacecraft, Captain William "Buck" Rogers awakens to a whole new world in 2491, where Earth's civilization has been rebuilt after the world has experienced a devastating nuclear war, leaving it under the protection of the Earth Defense Directorate. After being revived from his cryopreservation by a group of aliens en route to Earth for a trade conference, he is sent home to Earth to find a civilization in New Chicago and desert wasteland outside the borders. When Buck Rogers learns that the aliens that had "saved" him, the Draconian Empire, had placed a tracking device on his ship to find a way through Earth's defenses ultimately to destroy Earth, he must do everything he can to help save his planet. Buck Rogers in the 25th Century continues for two seasons of excitement and adventure exploring the dreams of a future time.
The Starfighter in this TV series is a class of heavily armed spaceships designed for maneuverability and speed. Due to its twin boom construction, some have described it as a futuristic version of the World War Two Lightning. The ion fusion engines can launch and land the craft under its own power creating the ability for use in reconnaissance missions and quick getaways.

Another Holland mascot was noticed by viewers before their friendly against England for wearing a GoPro action camera strapped to his head.
Jesse Lingard's first full international goal secured a 1-0 win for Gareth Southgate's men against a Dutch side that failed to qualify for this summer's World Cup in Russia.
But the night was more memorable for the wacky antics of the Holland mascots, one of whom drew attention for their eye-catching headgear, presumably worn in an effort to record the night for posterity.

Kimberly Ogba (Nigeria Moment). New York –
I was really enjoying my time away from Facebook until my friends sent me a whatsapp messages regarding ANOTHER bigotry comment directed at the Igbos. I studied the whole text and discovered that he was sick and was speaking for HIMSELF and not the entire YORUBA tribe.
I have reported him to the proper authorities in America. We don't play with such nonsense. I will see that his license as a board certified cardiologist is revoked in the State of Texas. I have contacted him at 806-780-8003 and I was told his line is BUSY. Medical doctor are second after God because we put our lives in their hands when we are sick . Dr Adeniran Abraham Ariyo failed that cardinal rule in medicine. In his speech, he said ALL IGBOS SHOULD BE SLAUGHTER AS THEY ARE BEEN SLAUGHTERED IN SOUTH AFRICA. Wow. That is worrisome, and alone might give clues to how many Igbos he has murdered under his care. I am not taking this lying down. You married an oyibo woman, I guess to further your ambition.
Dr Adeniran Abraham Ariyo was arrested and accused of raping an Igbo girl from Delta State in California in 1996, he beat the rap. But you will never beat this one for calling a genocide on a particular tribe in Nigeria.
First the Oba of Lagos, Oba Akiolu, threatened to drown all the Igbos if they voted for Jimi Agbaje. Second , a local filmmaker, called Afolayan who threatened that all Igbos should die because he accused them of pirating his home videos. And now this crackhead doctor. The fear of the IGBOs is manifesting in all angles.
Igbo kwenu. The igbo People full ground. We are the Jews of Nigeria. We will continue to be the builders of our great nation, NIGERIA, regardless of what other tribes think or harbored against the Igbo people.
Dr Adeniran Abrahaml Ariyo, you f**king bigot ass is finished. However, you are a disgrace to Nigeria. Your family pictures stays on because when you were planning your evil deeds, did you ever thought of the effects it might have on them? You made your f**king bed, you will ROAST on it.
God bless those who sees evil and condemned it.
Kimberly Ogba, is the Founder and CEO at Amolu Film Production Company.

Secrets Of The Millionaire Mind
T. Harv Eker is an author, businessman and motivational speaker known for his theories on wealth and motivation. He is the author of the book Secrets of the Millionaire Mind published by HarperCollins.
Early life
Eker was born in Toronto, Ontario Canada and lived there through his childhood. As a young adult, Eker moved to the United States and started a series of over a dozen different companies before having success with an early retail fitness store. After reportedly making millions through a chain of fitness stores and subsequently losing his fortune through mismanagement, Eker started analyzing the relationships rich people have with their money, leading him to develop the theories he advances in his writing and speaking today.
Eker's writing and speaking often focus on his concept of the "Millionaire Mind," a collection of "mental attitudes that facilitate wealth." This theory proposes that we each possess a "financial blueprint," or an "internal script that dictates how we relate to money," and that by changing this blueprint people can change their ability to accumulate wealth.
Other theories attributed to Eker include the concept that people unwilling to make major sacrifices in order to succeed "play the role" of the victim and deny that they have control of their own situations. Another concept is that guilt prevents seeking wealth and that "thinking about wealth as a means to help others" relieves this guilt and enables wealth accumulation.
In his book, Eker lists 17 ways in which the financial blueprints of the rich differ from those of the poor and the middle-class. One theme identified in this list is that the rich discard limiting beliefs while the unsuccessful succumb to them. Eker argues that: Rich people believe, "I create my life," while poor people believe, "Life happens to me;" rich people focus on opportunities while poor people focus on obstacles; and rich people admire other rich and successful people whereas poor people resent rich and successful people.

I had a couple of things I needed to pick up in Portland, so I asked Sarah and Jason if they wouldn't mind me staying one more day. They reluctantly obliged. I'm kidding; they graciously obliged. No, enthusiastically obliged. No, generously. Anyway, they obliged.
So today I went to a great sporting goods/ outdoor gear store called Next Adventure. If you're in Portland, it's definitely worth a visit. (It's like REI, but with better prices.) I needed to get a lighter-weight sleeping bag––one that was smaller, too. Purchased the Marmot Helium bag.
I also had made the naïve choice to bring my Nikon N90 SLR camera with an extra lens and 6 rolls of film as well as my digital camera. Oops. So at a photo store in Portland I picked up a Canon S95 that would replace both.
I figure the lighter gear as well as the decision to shed my water filter drops about 6 or 7 lbs. from my total weight. And, it allowed me to get that Thermarest off my front rack and into the trunk bag, thereby making my front end a bit less wobbly. Ahh.
While in downtown Portland I found a whole block that had a wooden sidewalk (or is it a boardwalk?):
When I saw this street sign I remembered hearing that Matt Groening, creator of the Simpsons, had grown up in Portland and used some of the street names and locations for characters and places in the show:
Tonight we all went to a bistro that had great food and probably the best french fries in the world!
Here's a picture I took of Jason with Irie and Ruah:

Excellent move to pick up the S95. I have an S90 and really like it! Amazing quality (better than my DSLR, I swear), and the size is perfect. Just beware the pop-up flash (unless they changed it on the S95; I've almost dropped my S90 several times when the flash popped up).ReplyDelete
I love your photos, by the way. Keep shooting!

*Sorry for the delay of the blogs due to the internet blockage in China.
7 June 2015
Hi, everyone! My name is Dongyi Xia and I'm from Hangzhou, China. I'm going to be a sophomore and I am a Business (undecided) and History double-major. This summer, I got the internship opportunity at the Notre Dame Asia office in Beijing, China. This internship was sponsored by SIBC. Although I am from China, my hometown Hangzhou is located at the Southeast coast of China, while Beijing is at the north. The differences between the northern and southern China are great, and I was excited to have the chance to lived and worked for six weeks at the capital and to experience a different culture.
My partner and I were housed in a guest house of PBCSF, Tshinghua University. Our office in Zhongguancun was close to our housing, so we were not too worried about commuting. For the first two weeks of work, we focused on the Business and Culture Program (BCG) which were going to spend two weeks in Beijing. We updated a booklet for the students who were in this program. The booklet was meant to make the students' lives easier and get to know Beijing better- it contained comprehensive information about transportation, nearby restaurants, cultural sites in Beijing etc.
We also planned a cultural scavenger hunt for the group of students! My partner and I got the chance to visit all the famous places in Beijing: the Summer Palace, the Old Summer Palace, the Olympic Park and the campus of Tshinghua University. We designed questions afterwards for the BCG students to find out the answers. My personal favorite is the Old Summer Palace. It was stunning in my eyes.

It's already the end of my fifth week of internship. Last three weeks had been busy but fun. On June 7th morning, we went to the train station and picked up the BCG group. During our third and fourth week of internship, the BCG group was in Beijing and they also lived at the guesthouse of PBCSF. Therefore, one job for me and my partner was to be the RAs of the students. Since the group arrived, our work was divided between office work (marketing materials, translation of "What Would You Fight For" series etc) and accompanying the students on their field trips. My partner and I split the field trips: she went to sightseeing with the students while I went to company visits.
For the company visits, we had been to several interesting companies: a real estate company named Savills, the US Embassy, newspaper agents like Caixin Media and Reuters. During the visits, students got to see the office space and hear from speakers of the company. Students got to know more about different industries and how business operated in China.
On the fifth week, right after the BCG group left Beijing, we were busy moving the office. The new office was in Chaoyang District and was near to the US embassy. The new office was more spacious but also further from where we lived. Now we're spending two hours on subway commuting everyday, which is actually a quite interesting experience.

How time flies! It's already the end of the internship. The last week has been super busy. During the last week of office we were working on new projects. I was mostly working on an academic trip to Hangzhou (my hometown!) and Shanghai for the Chinese Language Summer Program. We made a booklet containing the background information of the sites and companies they are going to visit.
At the end of the very last week came the fun part: I was going to go to Hangzhou and Shanghai with the group! We took an overnight train to Hangzhou. When we were there we visited a company named Westfield, whose CEO actually sponsored this academic trip. It was a company focusing on outdoor equipments. We got to visit the factory which was really cool. After that the group had dinner at one of the most famous restaurants in Hangzhou- Louwailou, which located right next to the famous West Lake.
The next morning we took a high-speed train to Shanghai and visited the illy Caffee company that day. The students got to enjoy the freshly made coffee and actually learned how to make coffee themselves. Later that night, the group joined the annual alumni picnic in Shanghai. The second day in Shanghai was scheduled for sightseeing: the Yu Gardern, the Yufo Temple and the Shanghai Museum. All of us were very impressed by the beauty of the ancient garden.
On my train back home, I could not help but wonder how fast the past six weeks went by. Reflecting back on my experience, I found it extremely rewarding: I've learned a great deal about how to collect information and compile marketing materials. I also improved on my problem-solving skill and learned to solve problems that may come up unexpectedly. Other than that, I got to really explore Beijing: visit the cultural sites, commute like a lot of people in Beijing do and try out different kinds of food there. It really had been a great summer. Thank you SIBC for this amazing opportunity!

LORIUM, an ancient village of Etruria, Italy, on the Via Aurelia, 12 M. W. of Rome. Antoninus Pius, who was educated here, afterwards built a palace, in which he died. It was also a favourite haunt of Marcus Aurelius. Remains of ancient buildings exist in the neighbourhood of the road on each side (near the modern Castel di Guido) and remains of tombs, inscriptions, &c., were excavated in 1823-1824. Two or three miles farther west was probably the post-station of Bebiana, where inscriptions show that some sailors of the fleet were stationed—no doubt a detachment of those at Centumcellae, which was reached by this road.End of Article: LORIUM

Normally I really just like to write my own nutrition articles, but this is a great article by Hammer Nutrition.
I've bee doing some research on the effects of unnatural additives in foods, and I will eventually do a post on this, but it's really awful on what things even in veggies and fruit can do to you. Though I don't have the budget to buy everything organic, I've started to buy some of the more affordable organic food.
(I definitely do not support the animal testing done for this research)
"It doesn't interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing... I want to know if you can be with joy, mine or your own, if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful, to be realistic, to remember the limitations of being human." -Oriah

Basic WordPress Troubleshooting Techniques
In this article, we will go over the basic techniques needed to troubleshoot common WordPress issues.
What's changed?
If you all of a sudden start having issues with your site, it's possible that something has changed. Ask yourself these questions before moving onto the other sections…
- Have I installed any new plugins?
- If you answered yes, try deactivating the plugin or uninstalling it to see if that resolves your problems. If it does, it is likely that the plugin is not compatible with either your version of WordPress or it may not be compatible with your theme or other active plugins.
- Have I upgraded WordPress?
- If you upgraded WordPress to find that parts of your site no longer work, try disabling your plugins to see if that restores functionality to your site. If it does, reactivate each plugin one by one until you find the one that caused the issue. You may need to wait for the plugin to be updated before it will work with your site again.
- If testing the plugins does not result in a solution, try changing your theme to the default WordPress theme to see if that resolves the issue. If it does, you may need to wait for the theme to be upgraded before you can use it again on your site.
- Have I upgraded any plugins?
- If you recently upgraded a plugin just to find that your site no longer functions as expected, try deactivating the plugin to confirm that this is the cause of your issues. If it is, you may need to wait until the plugin has been upgraded before you can use it again. You can also try disabling all your other plugins to see if the issue is a compatibility problem with a different plugin.
- Have I upgraded my theme?
- If you upgraded your theme and find that part or all of your site is no longer working, we recommend that you disable all plugins to see if there is now a compatibility issue with any of them. If not, you may need to either contact the theme designer or wait for a fixed version of the theme to be released.
- Have I changed anything on the file system?
- If you recently made changes to your file system (e.g. renamed folders, changed permissions, deleted files, etc), you may need to revert some or all of the changes to find what modification caused the issue. If you are not able to fix the issue this way, you may need to upload a fresh copy of the WordPress files to attempt to fix the issue.
If no recent changes were made by you or other administrators of the site, here are a few steps that may help resolve any problems on your WordPress based site.
Plugins, if you have any, can sometimes be the cause of your website issues. One of the first steps you should take is disabling all the plugins on your site to see if that resolves the issue. If it does, reactivate each plugin 1 by 1 until you find the plugin that caused the issue. Sometimes files used by plugins can become corrupt (e.g. cache files in cache plugins) and the plugin may need to be reinstalled or tweaked.
If disabling all the plugins does not work, keep them disabled and continue on to the next section.
Like plugins, themes can also be the cause of your problems. Try changing themes to the default WordPress theme to see if that resolves the issue. If it does, you may need to either update your theme, or contact the designer to have them look into the problem.
Once you have resolved the theme issue, feel free to reactivate all your plugins.
Another thing that can sometimes cause issues is an optimized database. Attempt to optimize and repair your database using the tools provided by your hosting provider. It is a good idea to do this every few weeks (or more often on super popular sites).
Hosting Provider
While unlikely, if none of the other steps have resolved the issue, try contacting your hosting provider to see if anything on the server has changed that might affect your website.
This option should be moved to the top of the list if you are unable to access your admin dashboard or other sites/files on your account (timeout issues, error 500, or sometimes 404 not found errors). It may be possible that your server is down or responding slowly to requests. Your hosting provider will be able to confirm this if it is indeed the case.

Have you ever seen people sifting through garbage to look for treasure? Homeless people do it all the time. But what about families who have lost their homes to hurricanes or floods? They might find old photo graphs, jewelry, etc. There is truth in the rubble.[i] Historical study is a lot like dumpster diving. New Testament scholars, especially skeptics like James Crossley and E.P. Sanders, look at the New Testament like a book of history, full of errors and discrepancies. But the vast majority of critical New Testament scholars still believe certain truths about Jesus:
- He died by Roman crucifixion.
- The disciples had experiences that they thought were actual appearances of Jesus.
- This transformed them, giving them a willingness to die for this belief.
- James, Jesus' brother and former skeptic, became a Christian due to an experience that he believed was an appearance of the risen Jesus.
- Saul, a former persecutor, had an experience that he believed was an appearance of Jesus, resulting in his conversion.
- A primitive creed reflecting belief in Jesus' bodily resurrection was orally received by Paul from Peter and James within less than five years of Jesus' crucifixion.[ii]
Pinchas Lapide published a book in 1977 in which argued that Jesus rose bodily from the dead, based upon these facts and others, such as the women's visitation to the empty tomb – one of the more contested historical facts surrounded the gospel tradition.[iii] He remained an orthodox Jewish scholar until his death in 1997. No one escapes personal bias. People are agenda-makers. But Christians can build the case for the resurrection using the scholarship of unbelievers, and that is what makes the resurrection different.
This is because historians look for truth in the dumpsters of history. They have certain criteria for what truth looks like, in the same way that we distinguish a photograph from a magazine clip, or a beautiful necklace from a coat button. Historians have criteria for determining value. For example:
- Does a particular historical fact or theory have great explanatory power?
- Is a particular historical hypothesis simpler than competing hypothesis?[iv]
- Is an event corroborated by various, independent, early sources?
- Do these sources show signs of reliability?[v]
I covered some of these criteria briefly in my previous article regarding the eyewitness testimonies of Jesus. I am saying now that even if these testimonies are not perfect, it does not mean they are not valuable. Eyewitness sources to the sinking of the Titanic, for example, differed on many things. Did the ship break in half as it sank? Did so-and-so have dinner in the main cabin that night? But beneath the rubble it always remains an indisputable fact that the Titanic sank on April 15, 1912. In the same way, Paul's letters to the Corinthian, Galatian, and Philippian churches are seen as reliable because they are quoted by many early church fathers, they bear the same unique literary style, they bear Paul's name of authorship, and they conform to other independent accounts.
What is remarkable about Christianity, however, is that the gems of historical truth in the Christian tradition are also the gems of the central gospel message, shining most brightly in the multiple, independent attestation to Jesus' bodily resurrection. If different men with distinct personalities and perspectives such as Peter, Paul, and Jesus' brother James – Paul, a former persecutor; James, a former doubter; and Peter, a traitor and a coward – radically changed their lifestyles, occupations, beliefs, and preached this change to create an ultimately global movement, and if they staked their reasons for this on the resurrection, and were willing to die for this, then this phenomenon calls for explanation.
This belief in Jesus resurrection is unprecedented. Dying and rising savior figures existed, for example, in Greco-Roman mythology, but gods like Attis, Dionysus, even Baal, were never believed to have risen bodily. Their stories of life and death were cyclical; they corresponded to the harvest cycles. Jesus died on a Roman cross for a redemptive purpose, and rose as a proof that God forgives sin, not that God gives rain to our crops. And there is not a single shred of unambiguous evidence that any pagans believed in dying and rising Savior gods prior to Christianity. Bart Ehrman notes: "Anyone who thinks that Jesus was modeled on such deities needs to cite some evidence – any evidence at all – that Jews in Palestine at the alleged time of Jesus' life were influenced by anyone who held such views."
Neither can the belief in Jesus' resurrection be explained by hallucination. Comparable hallucinations do not happen to different kinds of people under different circumstances, like the disciples. People may hallucinate seeing their loved ones after they die, but they do not conclude from this that their relatives have risen bodily. This is unique to Christianity as well. There was no belief in bodily resurrection either in pagan mythology or Judaism – at least, in the case of Judaism, not until the end of the age.[vi] Therefore, if the apostles had hallucinated Jesus, they would have concluded that he ascended spiritually into heaven, not that he was resurrected.
They claimed to have seen Jesus risen bodily and were willing to give up their lives for this claim. Not like a vision in the clouds, but like a guy who died in a car accident and showed up, three days later at QFC buying a 12-ounce coffee from a Starbucks stand. He was real. They saw Him. And they believed it enough to die for it. This fact is uncontroversial, and yet unexplained. There is no sufficient, naturalistic explanation. They changed the world, and they left us with a choice.
[i] Illustration taken from Gary Habermas, "Recent Perspectives on the Reliability of the Gospels" (Originally published in the Christian Research Journal / vol. 28, no. 1, 2005), paragraph 14, 15. Available at: http://www.garyhabermas.com/articles/crj_recentperspectives/crj_recentperspectives.htm#_edn23.
[ii] Gary Habermas provides the first five facts in The Risen Jesus and Future Hope (Lanham, Maryland: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, 2003), 26-27. He eludes to the sixth fact, which is frequently argued by Christian and skeptical scholar alike. Bart Ehrman – perhaps the most outspoken skeptical NT scholar in the world – argues, for example, that Paul received this tradition within only one or two years of Jesus' death. See: Bart Ehrman, Did Jesus Exist? The Historical Argument for Jesus of Nazareth (New York: HarperCollins, 2012), 206.
[iii] Pinchas Lapide, The Resurrection of Jesus: A Jewish Perspective (Eugene, Oregon: Wipf and Stock Publishers, 2002), 95.
[iv] These two criteria concern historical descriptions/theories. C.B. McCullagh's Justifying Historical Descriptions (Cambridge: University Press, 1984) covers various factors to consider: simplicity, explanatory power, explanatory scope, plausibility, ad hocness and disconfirmation (p.23-24). Apologists like William Lane Craig have used these criteria to argue that the resurrection of Jesus is the best explanation of the historical data that needs to be considered.
[v] These two criteria concern sources for historical events or persons. Bart Ehrman in Did Jesus Exist? The Historical Argument for Jesus of Nazareth (New York: HarperCollins, 2012), 40-42, lists these criteria for determining the likely existence of ancient persons or events: numerous sources, independent source, unbiased sources, and early sources.
[vi] N.T. Wright's 817-page book The Resurrection of the Son of God (Minneapolis: Fortress Press, 2003) is almost entirely devoted to this argument.

One of the more intriguing matchups takes shape Friday night as the Dayton Flyers and Wichita State Shockers clash.
Wichita State Shockers
The Shockers are in one of the most interesting positions.
Wichita State has lost just 4 games and while finishing with a 30-4 record and a conference title under their belts, the best they could get was a 10 seed in this year's tourney.
A majority of the nation believes this team is far better than a 10 seed and they'll look to prove that as they open as favorites Friday.
The Shockers is making their 6th straight tourney appearance and their depth is going to be the biggest key.
Wichita State has 5 players who average around the 9 point mark per game, with Markis McDuffie leading the team with 11.8 points.
Dayton Flyers
The Dayton Flyers are getting absolutely zero respect right now.
Every media outlet is saying not only can the Shockers make a deep run, but oddsmakers have also deemed the Flyers as decent sized underdogs here in this one.
Dayton had won 9 in a row prior to the upset pulled off by Davidson in the A-10 tournament.
The Flyers will turn to Charles Cooke, Kendall Pollard and Scoochie Smith, all seniors who are entering the tournament for the 4th straight season.
Dayton was bounced last year in the first round to 10 seed Syracuse in a blowout 70-51.
CBB Betting Trends:
- WICH are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games overall.
- Under is 10-2 in WICH last 12 neutral site games.
- Under is 10-4 in WICH last 14 overall.
- Over is 11-1 in DAY last 12 overall.

EH&E Offers Free Webinar on Environment of Care Compliance Management for Hospitals
EH&E (www. eheinc. com), a leading provider of health & safety and engineering consulting services, will sponsor a free webinar entitled "A New Concept in Environment of Care Compliance Program Support."
Newton, MA (PRWEB) September 14, 2006
EH&E, a leading provider of health & safety and engineering consulting services, will sponsor a free webinar entitled "A New Concept in Environment of Care Compliance Program Support." The featured speaker for this event is the Director of Environmental Affairs at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Massachusetts.
In January of 2006, the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) implemented its new policy of unannounced inspections. This policy clearly puts added pressure on healthcare institutions to strengthen their programs and processes to ensure they are always ready for a compliance audit.
The wide range of areas covered by the Environment of Care (EC) standards represents one of the most difficult compliance challenges for healthcare institutions, considering the multidisciplinary input required and the extensive data collection and reporting requirements.
The speaker will outline the process he and his colleagues at EH&E used to identify potential weaknesses in EC programs that might be barriers to maintaining continuous compliance. He'll then review tested solutions to these issues, including a demonstration of a cost-effective and user-friendly system to ensure continuous compliance.
This on-line event will focus on some of the key issues faced by EC groups including:
Providing instant access to program documents and data. Managing program continuity during organizational changes. Gathering and managing program metrics efficiently (e. g., Hazard Surveillance Rounds).

Last week we kicked off a mini-series that aims to help you make 2016 the year of AdWords success. We started off by looking at some tips for the newcomers and we've got some more in store for them in our next post. But this week we want to offer something to existing account holders who need to improve results over the coming year.
We know this will count for a lot of you guys, so we wanted to focus on some more in-depth tips to help you lift your AdWords campaigns to the next level. To do this we'll be focusing on some of the key AdWords metrics and looking at how to improve them, rather than offering generic advice you'll find in countless other articles.
Click Through Rate (CTR)
Okay, so the first thing we want to look at is click through rate (CTR), because this is where your ads start generating leads. If your ads are showing, but people aren't clicking then that's bad news for your overall Quality Score and Ad Rank, but it also suggests your ads and targeting strategy may need some fine-tuning.
Ways to improve your click through rate:
- Make sure your campaigns and keywords are tightly themed.
- Reassess your ad copy – could it be more relevant or compelling?
- Use ad extensions.
- Use dynamic keyword insertion.
- Run more campaigns for specific user needs, using long-tail and negative keywords (eg: seasonal campaigns, product categories, etc.).
- Rethink targeting – have you still not looked at ad scheduling, location targeting, device targeting, demographics, affinity audiences for display ads, etc? Explore the remaining options and reassess the methods you already use to get your ads in front of the right audience more often.
- Scrutinise your competitors' ads, compare them to your own and consider what you can do to ensure yours is clicked first.
Conversion Rate
Now you have more people clicking on your ads you'll find you're spending a whole bunch more on clicks. Which means you need to be sure enough of those clicks will convert – otherwise you're suddenly out of pocket. Conversion rate is undoubtedly one of the most important AdWords metrics so let's run through some ways to increase that vital percentage.
Ways to improve conversion rate:
- Focus on creating, testing and improving your landing pages for higher conversions.
- If your landing pages aren't the final stop along the conversion process, then make sure the rest of the journey is seamless (think shopping carts, checkouts, etc.).
- Use conversion tracking for insights on how you're performing after clicks (including offline conversions).
- Import Google Analytics goals into AdWords for more in-depth insights.
- Use AdWords remarketing to capture lost leads from your Search Network ads.
- Create an email marketing strategy to capture email addresses from users who click your ads so you can target them with promotions outside of the Google networks (without paying Google!).
Cost Per Action (CPA)
Once your clicks and conversion rates are through the roof, the next step is to reduce the overall cost of each conversion. This will increase your return on investment (ROI) and potentially free up some space for you to increase bids on your more profitable campaigns or targeting methods (eg: times of day or most profitable products).
Ways to reduce cost per action:
- Improve your Quality Score.
- Use CPA bidding.
- Cut out the poor performers – eg: expensive keywords or campaigns that aren't converting.
- Reassess your targeting once again and focus on the settings that perform best.
- Rework your keyword and negatives list for specificity.
- Tweak your bids and measure conversion rates to see how low you can go without denting your profits (also keep an eye on ad position and CTR).
- Lower your cost per click (see below).
Cost Per Click (CPC)
The less you pay per click that converts, the better your ROI. But you also pay money for clicks that don't convert and that means lowering your cost per click (CPC) not only reduces your CPA but also your wasted ad spend.
How to reduce Cost Per Click:
- Create highly focused, single keyword ad groups (SKAGS).
- Shift your attention to long-tail and other low cost/high intent keywords.
- Refine your geotargeting efforts and create campaigns with location keywords.
- Use manual bidding as much as you can manage for greater control over your ad spend.
- Use broad match modifiers to pinpoint user intents.
- Master bid modifiers for locations, devices, times of day, etc.
- Make sure your landing pages are keyword relevant (this helps with Quality Score).
Okay, so that's four of the most important and actionable metrics in AdWords you can use to improve results. Many of the bullet points we've covered will improve your AdWords accounts in other areas too – including some of the other metrics we've looked at today.
Hopefully, by looking at some key metrics before we mention any fixes helps illustrate how these action will impact your AdWords performance. Simply suggesting you improve your Quality Score isn't much help to you, for example, but once you know it can reduce your expenses you can start to see why it's important.
As always, you can get in touch with us, by using the contact form below, if you want more information on the points we've covered today. You can also speak to us directly by picking up the phone or reaching out to us on social. Next time we'll be back with some more tips for the beginners and we're not done yet with our advice for existing account holders either – so stay tuned for more!

"Material change" in issuer's business. NP 51-201, 4.3
o Changes in corp structure (changes in controlling share ownership, major reorgs/ M&A; take-over bids)
o Changes in capital structure (sale of additional sec; planned repurchases of sec; planned stock splits/ consolidation/ share exchange/ stock dividend; changes in dividend payments/ policies; poss initiation of proxy fight; material modification in rights of sec holders) o Changes in financial results (sig increase/ decrease in earnings; unexpected changes in financial results; shifts in financial circumstances – cash flow red; changes in value/ composition of corp's assets)
o Changes in business and operations (development that affects corp's resources, tech, products or markets; sig change in capital investment plans; major labour disputes; sig new/ losses of contracts; changes to BOD; developments in material legal proceedings; de-listing of corp's sec)
o Acquisitions and dispositions o Changes in credit arrangements
• 4.2(2) of Policy encourages issuers to err on the side of disclosing the information if there is any doubt.
1) File a press release per s.75 OSA, NI 51-201 s.2.1; 2) File a material change report (Form 51-102F3)
- 1) File a press release immediately disclosing the nature and substance of the change
o NP 51-201, 2.1: "A company's press release should contain enough detail to enable the media and investors to understand the substance and importance of the change it is disclosing. Avoid including unnecessary details, exaggerated reports or promotional commentary". o Obligation: to be factual and balanced (BUT no more said by Securities Commission)
- 2) File a material change report (Form 51-102F3) disclosing in greater detail the nature and substance of the change, within 10 days of the change.
o Example: a fire occurs. It is material. File press release immediately. File material change report within 10 days.
Still Form 51-102F3. This is the same, except leave out a fact and persuade the commission (via report) that a particular fact should not be disclosed. Here, only part of the material change is not disclosed. Prof has never seen this used.
s. 7.1(1) and (2) of National Instrument 51-102: Material Change Reports
Do not have to follow usual procedure of disclosing material change (per s.7.1(1)) if, per s.7.1(2) it would be
- unduly detrimental or (b) as a right, and the reporting issuer immediately files Form 51-102F3 Material Change Report marked so to indicate it is confidential as well as written reasons for non-disclosure
|Statute (OSA s.7.1(1))
|S.7.1(1) Publication of Material Change:
Subject to subsection (2), if a material change occurs in the affairs of a reporting issuer, the reporting issuer must
|Statute (OSA s.7.1(1))
|(2) Subsection (1) does not apply if,
|(a) Unduly Detrimental: in the opinion of the reporting issuer, and if that opinion is arrived at in a reasonable manner, the disclosure required by subsection (1) would be unduly detrimental to the interests of the reporting issuer; or
o Investor protection: should be able to assume all material changes have been published and can be pissed about making inv decision w/o that info vs
o Efficient Markets/Having People Play: There are circumstances where disclosure may be unduly detrimental, doing long-term harm to all investors potentially, making commission surrogate for investors
Basically, just keep in mind that application of this is difficult (of whether it's a material material change) e.g. the Harold Ballard heart condition – disclosable or not?
|(b) As of right: the material change consists
of a decision to implement a change made by senior management of the reporting issuer who believe that confirmation of the decision by the board of directors is probable, and senior management of the reporting issuer has no reason to believe that persons with knowledge of the material change have made use of that knowledge in purchasing or selling securities of the reporting issuer,
have, you 're into regular disclosure
o BUT HAVE TO DISCLOSE WHEN:
o So that commission knows insiders aren't trading, they can monitor the stock, make sure people aren't trading with the information
o If regulator sees trading, corp has to disclose fact – seems to have looked
|and the reporting issuer immediately files Form 51-102F3 Material Change Report marked so to indicate it is confidential as well as written reasons for non-disclosure
o and the reporting issuer immediately files the report required under paragraph (1)(b) marked so as to indicate that it is confidential, together with written reasons for non-disclosure.
|Statute (OSA s.7.1(1))
|saying this has happened, but I can't disclose it for this reason
- Best Practices Re: Disclosure (per NP 51-201)
- Establish a corp disclosure policy and oversee its implementation
- Have board/ audit committee review disclosure
- Authorize limited # of company spokespersons
- Adopt a "no comment" policy to rumours ^ otherwise inconsistent response may be interpreted as tipping

Maybe they were planning a story, but it sounds like they were taking the Muslims to lots of different settings to see how people reacted to them. I don't see what the big deal is. Stuff like this happens all the time.
What was the reaction, other than people being pissed off that they do it? Do you think they were hoping there would be a fight?
quote:Considering that the way Muslims are viewed in society post-9/11 is a topic of interest and discussion, why does it seem wrong that someone would conduct an experiment like this?
quote:Are you saying they were just trying to start trouble in hopes of getting some good film footage? That they were trying to create a situation that they could report as news, such as "Muslims Attacked at Race?" If that's what you think they were doing, then I agree that is wrong.
quote:But I don't think that is what they were doing here. I'm sure y'all know that lots of people get paid lots of money to come up with ideas. Dateline comes up with all kinds of unique ways to look into stories.
quote:I think it's a great idea for a show on Dateline. "We took three people, dressed up in traditional Muslim garb, to various settings around the U.S. to see how people reacted to their presence. Here's what we saw:..."
I'm surprised no one's done it before now.
quote:You really don't know what is the truth and what isn't.
quote:quote:There are drunks at NASCAR eventS?
you'd don't say
You better believe. I don't think you can ever peruse the fans on the infield without seeing numerous barechested, drunk, vile, foulmouthed fans making fools of themselves.....
Their husbands don't behave much better.
quote:Does anyone care to comment on the fact NBC is trying to create news?
Or do you just want to comment that you don't like NASCAR and you think that all fans are toothless, hairy backed rednecks.
BTW I like racing and I don't have a hairy back but I am missing a molar (the filling came out and the side of the tooth collapsed). But I do have moments of being a redneck
quote:Bill, just because someone takes the opposite side of you in a debate doesn't mean they are naive. I think you are the one being naive. Dateline has also done a story where they lure sexual predators in thinking they are hooking up with kids. That is "creating news," isn't it? Did you complain about that? Dateline is not a news program. It is an entertainment program.
Do you really think they put the Muslims there hoping there would be a huge ruckus, that people would get hurt, etc, so they could get higher ratings, and that no one would find out? And you think I'm naive?

I LOVE City shopping, I know, I know, I went op-shopping the day before but I couldn't help myself! Yesterday I went into the city center to shop. It is of course rare to find $4.00 cardigans there so I went armed with the intent of only purchasing ONE woven brown belt and food for dinner ... and I came back with DVD's a new dress, underwear and a new pair of stockings, alas none of this without considering a brilliant red pair of Vivienne Westwood Mary Jane's for $280, it's a pity they were one size too big, they were beautiful!
I got very caught up in my favorite shop Aeon which had a buy one get one free sale! SO when I saw this dress (at only $40.00) I couldn't help myself it's amazing, velvet, stretchy, and hides all in its texture!
The hard part was choosing my free gift because she has so much that I'd love to have anyway I walked away with these vintage boxed stockings. They're your typical nude thigh highs but the best bit is their sweet little box!
Complete with emblem!
I wish stockings still came wrapped up like this! Oh, the glamour of years past.
For my Art and Design class we had to make a short film about a particular site we got given, (and thanked it's not worth anything)! So at about one am I dragged myself downtown to video in the cold for ten minutes!!! And added the ambient sounds of my favorite city! Well, hopefully soon to visit favorite city!
New York!
Lots of Love
