An abandoned old site of the capital city of South Korea, an overpass in the centre of Seoul, has now been converted into Plant Village, a beautiful green walkway. The complete length of this vegetated passage is 983 meters, and it appears in the form of a long-elevated sky way.
The beauty of the new public site lies in the manner of its construction. It purposely keeps people away from the crowded streets. All they need to do is to choose to climb few steps up to the green walkway. Owing to its height, you make a deliberate choice to rest in a place which seems far off from the close city quarters. It is an easy escape from the noise of the busy streets. The long stretch has been beautifully decorated in greenery. So, it naturally offers a wave of fresh air as you walk through the length or breadth of the elongated highway now.
It is no surprise then that the name "Plant Village" was bestowed on the green wealth of the site. People enjoy spending time here and do something aside from the monotony of a city life. The fact that it is so accessible gives the 'plant village' majority of its popularity due. There is plenty to do here. Like, stroll in the evening and enjoy the natural beauty of trees, shrubs and greenery surrounding you. It is full of bliss.
This local experience has a special spot on the city map for good reasons. People are warming up to this new concept of breaking the monotony. This really was the whole idea when the Dutch Architectural supremo MVRDV was appointed to turn an abandoned site into something meaningful.
MVRDV was entrusted with the responsibility to convert the deserted overpass purposefully for the city dwellers, especially the pedestrians. And, it did deliver exactly on it. If we look at their past records, it is not really surprising from them to add value by transforming a defunct space into contemporary use. The company has been applauded in the past for investing time and money to execute similar projects. Their Netherlands Pavilion construction during the World EXPO 2000 in Hannover; The Stairs to Criterion; The Randstad Hyde Park; the Amsterdam Lloyd Hotel and, the recent 'Plant Village' project has made them famous in the archaeological world.
The present design of the 1970s Seoul Highway is addressed as Seoullo 7017 in Korea, which means "Seoul Street," referring to its original year of construction and the time it was redesigned. The whole space is a green walkway and a public entertainment zone with tea houses, galleries, dining options and a theatre. Old highway ramps are made into stairs and elevators to ascend and descend the sky way.
It is called the 'Plant Village' rightly so, because the sky garden has different species of plants and shrubs, creating a fresh environment in and around the area. This natural botanical display consists of different flowers classified according to fragrance, color and seasons. There are 24,000 trees, shrubs and flowers, which highlight the beautiful story of Korean flora and fauna. At night, the sky way is a brilliant display of blue illumination, which is considered to be good for plants' health.
The green spot is the nucleus of the city and adds an element of natural decor. A visitor to the site can also witness the stunning views of the Historical Seoul Station and Namdaemun Gate. There are many reasons to call it the city's centerpiece; the Seoul sky garden connects to the city's central station, the Namdaemun Market, and has Malli-dong, Jungnim-dong, and Cheongpa-don attached to its ends. The skyline is also connected to the hotels, shops and gardens and it adorns a futuristic design and style to plug new connections to the street level and more parks to be laid in the future.

Military Family Programs
Supporting Military Families
The Extension Military Families Program began in 2008 by UK Family and Consumer Sciences through a small grant partnership between the Department of Defense (DoD) and the USDA. Since then, partnerships have been formed with military and non-military entities across the state and country to develop programs and grounded in research to improve the lives of military families.
Two collaborative programs developed through the partnerships that have been recognized nationally for their focus on the military family: Military Teen Adventure Camps (MTAC) and Operation Military Kids (OMK).
The goals of the Extension Military Families program are to assist Active Duty, Guard, Reserve and Veteran families by: 1) connecting military families to needed resources and supports; 2) helping service members more effectively reconnect with their children before, during and after deployments; 3) improving healthy parent/child relationships and family communication skills by providing programs that involve the entire family; and 4) improving the sense of connectedness for geographically dispersed military families by providing opportunities for interaction, community resources, activities involving multiple local/regional/state organizations, and introducing military families to Extension programs.

About this time last year, Dan Parker shared his goals and predictions for C.I.Agent Solutions in the 2015 business year. Today, we'll have Mr. Parker take a look back over those goals and discuss how the company fared over the last 12 months, in addition to sharing his candid thoughts.
2015 Goal Number 1: More activity that results in accomplishment
In 2014, Dan believed one of the company's biggest failures overall was "confusing activity with accomplishment." He believed an easy way to overcome this challenge was to follow through on all projects, from start to finish, and don't let roadblocks and hurdles bar us from accomplishing our goals.
"… I admitted one of our biggest failures in 2014 – confusing activity with accomplishment."
Was the goal achieved? Yes
Dan's Thoughts:
I think we've made great strides in regards to accomplishing what we intend to accomplish. Even though we put some policies in place last year that has resulted in a more efficient project process, the real key to recent accomplishments is our ability to adapt and think quickly on our feet.
Also, improved communication has been a vital component to success. In 2015, we implemented weekly sales meetings in which the sales team would convene and share details of projects they had in the works. Because important information was shared freely among our team in a collaborative nature, we could ensure all projects would be handled professionally and to our high standards of quality, even if the original person working the job couldn't finish it due to extenuating circumstances. Additionally, these meetings allowed us to discuss unexpected challenges and brainstorm together to solve such unexpected problems.
All in all, I think we've done a much better job of following through on projects until the end and not giving up easily. Adaptability is key! Of course, it's important to keep chasing accomplishments, which we'll be doing full-throttle in 2016!
2015 Goal Number 2: Increase sales by 20% in 2015
It may have sounded unrealistic or idealistic, but Dan believed steadfastly in the company's ability to increase sales by 20% in 2015. He intended to tackle this goal by improving communication and encouraging teamwork between members of the internal sales force (accomplished in Goal 1, above). "The very nature of commissions causes sales teams to be very competitive with each other, but I'm hoping we can alter this mindset and develop synergy that results in everyone winning."
"The very nature of commissions causes sales teams to be very competitive with each other, but I'm hoping we can alter this mindset and develop synergy that results in everyone winning."
Was the goal achieved? Yes
Dan's Thoughts:
Some on our financial team thought my goal couldn't be met, but we ended up hitting the mark! Our sales team really stepped up and worked together, which drove sales up like I knew it would. Even more amazing, is that we were able to achieve this despite some challenging setbacks.
When we design secondary oil containment solutions for our customers, the idea is to provide for a 100 year, 24-hour rain event, which in theory is defined as an intense storm or rainfall that should only happen about once a century. In reality, however, a 100 Year Storm can happen more than once every 100 years; it's basically just rainfall totals that have a one percent probability of occurring at that location in that year. And last year illustrated that distinction very well, as clients in several areas of the country experienced more than just one, 100-Year Rainfall events.
These unprecedented storms, while unfortunate, were also eye-opening, and allowed us to make an important discovery that led to the introduction of some new designs in the process.
2015 Goal Number 3: Cultivate major corporate accounts
Any successful salesperson will attest, success is not achieved by a sale here and a sale there, especially if working on straight commission. Dan hoped that focusing on the development of a more cohesive sales team in 2015 would organically result in the addition of more corporate accounts, and the opportunity for our solutions to be written into more and more of the large electrical utilities' engineering standards for secondary containment.
"Helping our internal sales force develop as a team should translate into the addition of more corporate accounts. We'd like to add more big players to our portfolio, and will go after them with the hope of our solutions being written into engineering standards for secondary containment at more and more of the large utilities. I envision Dan Koons to spearhead this initiative, as he's worked closely with several utilities over the last few years that have written C.I.Agent® Polyvinyl Liner System into their standard practices."
Was the goal achieved? Yes, to a degree … still a work in progress
Dan's Thoughts:
We've made some strides over the last year, and have put a lot of effort into improving communication among our internal corporate sales team. This is vital to securing and cultivating major corporate accounts. We're not where we need to be yet, but we're definitely on the way … and much closer today than we were a year ago. We added two new associates to the sales force last year, and are in the process of identifying what utilities are a good fit for our solutions, and how we can build the foundation for successful relationships with them. I personally attended more industry meeting and events in 2015, which opened my eyes to a lot of challenges we never knew existed. Also, I really believe our new corporate alliances will prove very strategic for opening up additional business opportunities with major utilities, as well as outside of our target market.
I recently heard a quote that will become my mantra for 2016:
"We first seek to understand, then to find the best practices. After that we then make changes."
In order to cultivate relationships with the major players among investor-owned utilities, we have to understand them! What they need, what they prefer, what makes them tick, what problems they're facing, etc. We also need to figure out what procedures and processes they are most comfortable with, before we can attempt to offer them something completely different. Companies, like people, are creatures of habit, especially within the electrical utility industry. Change is scary, so it is often avoided.
Well, we're not offering run-of-the-mill oil containment solutions. C.I.Agent Solutions is a company built on the ability to harness new and innovative technology to custom-engineer oil containment systems that solve real and detrimental problems. We can help eliminate soil contamination from an undetected leak at a rural substation, or we can prevent transformers from exploding in underground vaults.
On this note, because we're aware there's no cookie-cutter solution for all containment needs, our marketing and digital media department spent the summer developing a unique interactive application, specifically to help engineers, substation designers and others involved with transmission and distribution navigate the various secondary containment applications. It can be confusing to figure out what options are best, and there are often a number of variables that must be considered. Our Secondary Containment Solutions Tool is an easy-to-use platform ideal sorting through all available solutions, whether you need new containment or want to retrofit existing containment.
2015 Goal Number 4: Increase staff by 3 or 4 people at the minimum
Specifically, this goal referred to increasing the number of people who work in our manufacturing department. As mentioned previously, our sales increased from 2014 to 2015, which means manufacturing increased as well. Dan wanted to hire more people to work in the plant to alleviate some of the burdens on the guys who travel often to assist in site supervision of installations of our systems.
We did this in 2014, and I'm hoping we'll need to do so in 2015 as well. We must keep adding to our manufacturing team to keep up with the demand of business. We don't want to burden the guys doing the installations by too much travel, so hiring more people who can be trained to correctly and efficiently install our solutions is ideal. I want to find the right people to fill these roles, ones who will enjoy working here and stick around for a while. More staff means the opportunity to do more fun things, as a company.
Was the goal achieved? Yes
Dan's Thoughts:
The manufacturing team is the bread and butter to our company – we depend on their quality work for our success. Without their dedication to producing solutions, we wouldn't have the great reputation we do within the industry. We had a record number of orders this past year, including some really large projects with tight deadlines, but the boys in the Warehouse (aka, the W) stepped up to the challenge without hesitation or complaint. We added four new employees to the roster, and as it is now, we're literally out of space! But that's a good problem to have.
On a more somber note, we also experienced a great deal of sadness with the death of one of our own, Donaven Carey, on Nov. 11, 2015. We are a small company, and extremely close-knit, so it was as if we lost a member of our own family. Though dealing with this tragedy was unbelievably painful, witnessing how the company, especially the W, came together to lean on and comfort each other made me both proud and humble.
2015 Goal Number 5: Continue social media efforts
Though our market has been slow to embrace online marketing such as social media, Dan has been a surprising advocate of adopting social marketing strategies for some time now. He spoke highly of efforts a year ago, and spent the year encouraging the marketing department to produce as much online content as possible, including social media posts, blogs, data, videos, interactive tools and more, in the interests of equipping engineers and utilities with all the information they need to make informed decisions about their oil containment needs.
Not only will we add more people to our manufacturing department, I also hope to grow our digital media/marketing presence as well. I firmly believe that social media like Facebook and Twitter and online content marketing like our blog can enhance a traditional sales force. It sure isn't going to hurt it! The more data, web content, and information about the industry that we can provide to engineers, the better it is for both them and us. Communication touch points have evolved, and it's time we get on board in this industry. We'd hate to be left behind.
Was the goal achieved? Yes
Dan's Thoughts:
I'm a big fan of online marketing, as many of you know. I've been dreaming of a large marketing department for some time, and this year, that dream came true. We added two members to our marketing staff to round out the department at six. We now have people dedicated to web development, social media, marketing research, and video and animation. We've invested in new tools and technology that will catapult us lightyears ahead of our competition.
Note from the Marketing Director:
Christina Bickett here, head of marketing as of 2015. I have to agree with Dan that we really do have a great marketing team and are gearing up for an even more incredible 2016. Not sure if everyone is aware, but marketing secondary containment is hard work. It's a complicated, unsexy range of products for an extremely niche market. Even more frustrating, the market we're targeting is adverse to change of any kind. To some teams, it might seem challenging, but at C.I.Agent Solutions, we don't have challenges – we have opportunities! With that mindset, we've developed a content strategy that attacks the industry from all angles, and are optimistic about revolutionizing the oil containment market in 2016.
To check out our social media efforts in action, like us on Facebook or follow us on Twitter and LinkedIn.
2015 Goal Number 6: Remember our core industry
Dan's final goal for 2015 was simple: revert to the roots of the company, in both strategy and focus, because that method is proven and will work. This company was founded on the backbones of pioneers in alternative and disruptive technology, and was able to thrive in spite of itself. How can we keep up that pace, when innovation moves at the speed of light? By remembering why we do what we do; we protect the water.
"Simply put, clean water is our business. We can't forget that our main goal is to protect the water."
Was the goal achieved? Yes
Dan's Thoughts:
This year, I focused on the fact that we are a new company. We're no longer working in the spill response industry, and we're redefining our brand and corporate identity from the inside out. We asked our customers what their problems were, and developed containment solutions to meet their needs. That's what pioneers and trailblazers do. As I've already said, "We first seek to understand, then to find the best practices. After that we then make changes."
In the next blog post, I'll outline some of my goals for 2016. Until then, everyone have a Happy New Year!

2018: Urhobo Leaders In United Kingdom Search For Unity (PHOTOS)
LAGOS DECEMBER 26TH (URHOBOTODAY)-Disturbed by the problem of Urhobo disunity both at home and in Diaspora, Urhobos resident in United Kingdom came together to brainstorm on how to achieve unity in Urhoboland come 2018.
A document emanating from the meeting made available to Urhobotoday.com disclosed in the meeting organized by an Urhobo Leader, Chief Johnson Barovbe, that Urhobo leaders in UK discussed the causes of Urhobo disunity and how to resolve them.
There was a question of disunity and court case involving Urhobo Progress Union, UPU, (Worldwide), but Chief Johnson Barovbe cleared the doubts on the ongoing propaganda that there are two factions of UPU in Nigeria. He declared that there is only one UPU in Nigeria with Olorogun Moses Taiga as the President-General Worldwide.
Chief Barovbe told the gathering that when they were growing up in the 50s and 60s, an ostracized (imu- in urhobo lamguage) man has only three options.
"One is to move with his family to the evil forest( Aghwarode) because he was not accepted by anybody. He cannot attend social gatherings or community meetings. Secondly, an ostracized man can move with his family to Okitipupa or Oshogbo. The third option is to go with his family to the venue of where the decision to ostracized him was made and then beg for forgiveness
"In the case of UPU, the man is question has the third option to make. He has to go to the palace of Owhorode at Olomu in Ughelli-South local government area of Delta Delta State and beg for forgiveness. This is a matter concerning the whole Urhobo ostracizing an individual.
"The decision to ostracize him was taken unanimously and endorsed by all representatives of the kings of all urhobo kingdoms, by all the President General of all the twenty four Urhobo kingdoms, by entire Urhobo women, Urhobo leaders Forum, Urhobo youths, Urhobo Social Club Lagos and by Urhobo Historical Society among others," Barovbe stated.
Barovbe further stated that with the ostracisation of the individual under discussion, going to court is not the best option, suggesting that the individual can still be accepted as prodigal son into Urhobo fold if he only he could make up his trouble mind and go to Olomu Palace to retrieve his bitter utterances and sincerely apologise for his misbehavior against his father's land.
The question of Urhobos having two factions of UPU in United Kingdom was also discussed extensively. The Woman Vice President of Agbon Kingdom, Mrs. Date Awhie raised a vital point that the current President of UPU in UK, Chief Emmanuel Okpako Ganiga and Chief Angos Omasoro, the President of Urhobo Unity in UK should both step down when their tenure ends in 2018 for a credible general election to be conducted by all Urhobo adults in the UK to elect a credible UPU Urhobo leader and executive that are accepted to all Urhobos.
President of Urhobo Traditional Council of Chiefs in United Kingdom, Chief Emagbetere lamented that the quarrel between the two factions of UPU in UK has reduced the influence and authority of Urhobos in the UK.
The most enduring point was raised by the President of Agbon Kingdom in United Kingdom, Major Gilbert Edojah (RTD) that 2018 should be a year of unity in Urhobo both at home and Diaspora.
Those present were Chairman Board of Trustee of Urhobo Social Club Lagos, Chief Johnson Barovbe, Former President of Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Chief Goodie Ibru, President of UPU in UK, Chief Emmanuel Ganiga, President of Agbon Kingdom in UK , Major Gilbert Edojah, President Urhobo Traditional Council of Chiefs in UK, Chief Philip Emagbetere and President of Idjereh Kingdom in UK, Mr. Robert Onojeruo.
Others were President of Agbarha-Otor Kingdom in UK, Chief Sam Irivie, President of Urhobo Ladies Association in UK, Mrs. Stella Gbenedio, Vice President of Agbon Kingdom in UK, Chief (Mrs.) Date Ahwie, Retired First Urhobo School Principal in UK, Chief Ejiro Ughwujabor, Vice President UPU in UK, Chief Dan Ogodo, President Udu Kngdom in UK, Olorogun Ovo Agbodje, Member of Urhobo Social Club, Chief (Engr) Godwin Onabedje and Mr Jerry Oboh.

Chess Boards From 4" to 32"
Chess Boards
A chessboard is the type of checkerboard used in the board game chess, and consists of 64 squares (eight rows and eight columns) arranged in two alternating colors (light and dark). The colors are called "black" and "white" (or "light" and "dark"), although the actual colors are usually dark green and buff for boards used in competition, and often natural shades of light and dark woods for home boards. Materials vary widely; while wooden boards are generally used in high-level games, vinyl and cardboard are common for low-level and informal play. Decorative glass and marble boards are available but not usually accepted for sanctioned games. Chessboard with Staunton chess pieces The board is structurally similar to that used in English draughts (American checkers). Some low-cost sets (especially those sold in toy stores) may use red and black squares and include pieces for both games; though suitable for informal play, such boards are often not accepted for sanctioned play, depending on the local authority's rules on equipment standards.

House of Formation Scrapbook
For the last month or so I've been working on getting a scrapbook together for the House of Formation. Sr. Mary John and Sr. Agnes Joseph have entrusted this task to me. Kind of surprising because I've never done a scrapbook! You learn lots of new skills when you enter the convent… Since entering I've been given the opportunity to speak at high schools about vocations, scrapbook, help Sr. Agnes Joseph to re-organize the library(a work in progress), etc. There is never a dull moment in the convent!
Ann Creech permalinkMarch 9, 2009 10:33 am
Hi Sr. Vernica, like that saying " you never to old to learn new tricks." How are you doing on crocheting. Keep the faith. Ann
March 10, 2009 6:33 am
Hello Ann,
Exactly. Actually I haven't picked up crocheting since Sr. Patricia so patiently taught me at the bazaar. Maybe I'll continue it at some time, I don't know. Thanks for saying hi.

There are many ways you can help Strategic Alliance carry out our mission. We could not do all the things we do without the help of those who volunteer.
- Organize a team to build a home or homes for the homeless. It is simple. This website provides the information and tools to help you such as outlining the cost for team members, cost of materials and what to bring. Once you get to the border STRATEGIC ALLIANCE staff will assist you with everything else. All food, transportation and lodging is provided. Contact our office if you would like to help.
- We always have children who need a sponsor. Sunday school classes, youth groups, families with children sponsor one or a number of children as a class, group or family project. Sponsorship provides an opportunity for a child to attend school who would normally not be able to go. Sponsors provide school fees, test fees, new uniforms, new shoes, underwear socks, backpacks and all their school supplies.
- Translators are needed to help teams communicate with their families. Many teams don't have a person that speaks Spanish. It is a blessing to have someone to help with translation. STRATEGIC ALLIANCE staff members speak Spanish and are always willing to help when they can. Love is a language that does not require a translator and all of our teams are well able to communicate using that language.

Clovis, NM – Today, Governor Susana Martinez was joined by company executives and local officials for a ribbon cutting for the expansion of Southwest Cheese' Clovis manufacturing facility. Southwest Cheese has invested $140 Million to expand their operations in Clovis, New Mexico. The expansion will create up to 50 new manufacturing jobs and is being supported by New Mexico's closing fund, LEDA, as well as the Job Training Incentive Program, JTIP. This expansion will increase Southwest Cheese employee numbers to more than 400 in Clovis and the facility's operational capacity by 30 percent.
"For years, we've worked relentlessly to make New Mexico a great place to do business, now we're seeing the results," said Governor Martinez. "International companies like Southwest Cheese are realizing the benefits of New Mexico's supportive business climate, and their decision to locate in our state helps make it the best place to live, work and raise a family."
New Mexico has provided $350,000 for the expansion through the state's closing fund, known as LEDA. The city of Clovis is the fiscal agent for the LEDA award. LEDA helps recruit new businesses to our state while helping those that are already here grow and thrive. Nearly zeroed out when Governor Martinez took office, she fought to grow this important tool to more than $56 million. The company's expansion has also been assisted by the City of Clovis Economic Development Incentive Programs.
"We're thrilled that Southwest Cheese has chosen to expand in Clovis," said Economic Development Cabinet Secretary Matt Geisel. "We will continue our efforts to create a pro-business climate in our state - and environment that encourages companies to not only choose New Mexico, but to stay and grow here."
"Southwest Cheese is proud to be expanding operations in Clovis as we seek to capture further domestic and international cheese and whey market share," said George Chappell, president of Southwest Cheese. "We are thankful for the support of Governor Martinez, local leaders in Clovis, and the state of New Mexico."
Since 2011, Governor Martinez has bolstered economic development tools, cut taxes 57 times, and rolled back unnecessary regulations and red tape to create a business-friendly environment in New Mexico. Governor Martinez also established the Catalyst Fund, a $40 million partnership with the State Investment Council that focuses on helping homegrown New Mexico technology startups grow and thrive. As a result of these tools, reforms, and investments, New Mexico continues to recruit global and national companies like Facebook, Keter Plastic, Safelite and others, while helping homegrown businesses like Skorpios, UBiQD, Descartes Labs, RiskSense and others grow and thrive as well.

Extortion - Get Fucked 5"
RSR recently put out this 2 track 5" by Extortion. Both songs are out takes from the 2007 Sick recordings so this is classic Perth line up here. Coma is a slow dirgy instrumental and Decompose is a ripper of a track that could have easily been left on the Sick LP. Only 300 of these little guys were pressed, all on black vinyl. 100 copies came with limited Chaos In Tejas covers but to make things even more frustrating for Extortion collectors there were half printed on red sleeves and the other half on orange sleeves. Add that to the never ending list!

Noah's Story
Being a surprise pregnancy, I should have known a lot more surprises and unknown things were headed my way with the delivery of my first son, Noah. Once the initial shock of oh my god, were pregnant wore off, my husband (fiancé at the time) and I quickly set off to devour whatever information we could on childbirth. We spent countless evenings watching documentaries, reading books and talking to people, determined to give our son the best start in this world. The more we learned and the more research we did, the quicker we realized a home birth was the way to go for us.
Being a current student studying holistic health coaching and nutrition, I had been meticulous about what was going into my body balanced meals, organic everything, not even a single Advil, so why would I choose to have body altering drugs present at that very last moment of union between us?! I want the very best for myself and my son -- there was no way any of the hospital drama, atmosphere and medical model was coming anywhere near us! As soon as that decision was made, we knew we had to have Jen. Nicks aunt had used a midwife for all five of her births and Jen for her last daughter. We heard wonderful reviews and it didnt hurt that Jen was the only midwife in the area practicing publicly. Jen was the rock for me during this pregnancy. Every little question I had, as stupid as it was, was happily answered with all the current research and holistic methodology behind it. This became even more important as my due date came and went. Friends who had gotten pregnant after me were already holding their babies (because they were induced!) and my anxiousness was growing with each passing day. When was he going to get here??
Finally on Wednesday, February 2nd after coming home from a wonderful date with my husband, I found the bloody show and light contractions started soon after! Yes!!! I thought, FINALLY this thing is gonna happen!! I excitedly called Jen and she said just to hang-out and start being more aware of my body, it could be tonight or it could be three days from now (not what I wanted to hear!)
Well that entire night I had contractions about 60 mins apart. They were the most intense contractions I had up to that point but they just didnt seem to be progressing anywhere. The next morning, I woke up disappointed realizing that my contractions had stopped. Throughout the next two days (which seemed like the longest days of my life), my contractions would come and go, sometimes picking up only to slow back down again. My parents were very nervous about the home birth to begin with (my mom had 6 C-sections) so they quickly got a hotel room to hang nearby.
I must have ate 6 pineapples, taken a whole bottle of Evening Primrose Oil and did every yoga posture I had read about to speed things along. I wanted to meet my son. I wanted to hold my precious baby in my arms and this delayed labor thing was not what I had pictured! It was both mental and physical torture those last days! Jen knew this and made a house call Friday morning. Not only was her mental and emotional support so helpful, but the internal exam was as well. Although I know that dilation and effacement really mean nothing in terms of when a baby is going to come, it was comforting to know I was already 4 cm and SOMETHING was happening!!
Finally, Friday night, around 10:00 p.m. my contractions got serious. I didnt really know what to expect, but I know I wasnt expecting such serious back pain. My husband was wonderful and we laid in bed for hours just being with each other and the contractions. By 4:00 am they were getting to be so serious I couldnt concentrate on anything else and begged him to call Jen and tell her to come. Deep down in my soul I knew I NEEDED a woman to be with me. I love Nick dearly, but he is not the same as having a woman next to you.
When Jen arrived she found me pacing the living room, stopping to lean against the wall and sway my hips with each contraction. The back pain was becoming very difficult to withstand and I soon realized I was having back labor as well. My contractions started to be more frequent and intensity grew it was time to set the pool up. After this point, its safe to say that I lost all track of time. I dont know what time anything occurred, I dont know who was where or what was going on around me. I always read in birth stories that its like youre in another dimension or that you are in some deep, meditative trance within yourself and I never really understood it until that point. Nothing else mattered. Nothing else even for a second seeped into my consciousness; I was with myself and my baby, thats it.
Around maybe 10:00am (??) I told Jen I felt pressure and that I didnt want to do this anymore. I knew this was the sign of transition and that pushing should be following shortly . Not the case with Noah. My back labor was so strong and intense that it kept me from opening up and relaxing like I wanted to. Such intense pain instinctually causes you to tense up, almost build a wall up against the next wave of pain that you know is on its way. After this point, Jens assistant, Heather showed up and let me tell you, that woman was my SAVIOR! With such intense back labor and Heather being a massage therapist, there was not more than 15 minutes that this amazing woman wasnt on my back, kneading away on exactly the exact spot I needed her to. There were times I didnt even need to tell her, its almost like she knew exactly where she needed to be and I couldnt have been more thankful.
During the next hours, my contractions seemed relentless, one directly on top of the other. It seemed like I had no relief at all for what felt like hours. My position changed begrudgingly because it seemed I had spent hours on all fours or kneeling against the couch I didnt want to move incase another contraction started and I wasnt braced and ready! The room went from light to dark and I knew that night was approaching. Jen and Heather suggested the pool again to help with pain and once I was in, the water was such a relief. Someone was constantly pouring water over my back and I knelt against the side of the pool, clutching Nick for support. I finally had enough. I had reached a breaking point. I called out to Jen and Heather, begging them to take me to the hospital; I just couldnt take the pain anymore. (This very much surprised me because I NEVER thought I would have uttered those words, but I guess youll do crazy things while experiencing serious pain, huh?) Jen said before even considering taking me to the hospital, shed have to check me. Any woman in labor knows, the last thing you want is for someone to be digging around down there checking you internally. This alone was enough to convince me to keep trying.
The back pain didnt let up though and finally Heather remembered the use of sterile water to help in situations just like this. Jen had some on hand and together we all decided I would take four injections of sterile water into my back to help ease the pain. Apparently, sterile water mimics an epidural for a brief period of time and although it would be painful for a minute, I welcomed any relief from the back labor. Minutes after the water was injected under my skin, I was able to relax enough to progress into the pushing stage. It was time to end this labor and hold my beautiful son.
Once I knew I could push, I was a woman on a mission! I wanted so badly to be lying in my bed, snuggled up with my baby, husband and puppy warm and comfortable. The sounds that came out of me during this stage of labor were unlike any sounds I had ever heard. It was primal and I was somewhere in the realm that all women before me who had birthed a child naturally had been; a realm with no time, a realm of no space. It was beautiful.
I pushed with every ounce of strength in my body, even when, after 20 hours, I shouldnt of had any strength. Its amazing how you just find it. Its just there, as if it had been waiting patiently for you the entire time. Once I knew his head was almost out, I gathered up everything I had left and my son arrived, perfectly underwater at 7:05 pm. That moment has forever changed my life and given me strength as I woman that I never knew I had. Every ounce of pain, every tear, every bead of sweat was forgotten the second I held him in my arms. He was here and he was perfect. We were in the comfort of my home: no bright lights, no loud noises, no one whisking him away from me to cut a cord, weigh him or anything like that. We were on our time and our time stood still at that moment.
Noah Bennett was 8 lbs 2 oz and 21 inches long. He was so alert that entire night and nursed within the first few hours of birth. We were in our home with only the best people around us and for that evening, our home was a little cocoon of love. <3

text: How One Entrepreneur is Bringing Art to You, Wherever You Are How One Entrepreneur is Bringing Art to You, Wherever You Are If you've arrived at the stage in your company where you've officially moved into your own space, then you know that with the excitement (and ahem, bills) comes the stress of figuring out your brand aesthetic. Will you have an open-office floor plan or cubicles? A fun kitchen or bigger bathrooms? Conference rooms or corner offices? And what about the artwork? Imagine if you didn't have to invest in expensive artwork but could still give your employees a glimpse into the world of some of the most influential artists in history. Thanks to Dot Bustelo, the founder and CEO of Loupe, you can. What's Loupe? A technology and sales company that allows its customers to stream artwork from around the globe. You can also guest-curate your own gallery via your Apple TV or by webstreaming. Love a piece so much that you want to own a print – or the original? You can do that, too. With the online art market valued at $2.64 billion in 2016, Bustelo has definitely tapped into something – and people are paying attention. Since its inception, Loupe has reached the coveted top position for 'Lifestyle App' on Apple TV in 35 countries, and is in the top ten in 75 countries. Here, Bustelo talks about her background, what's next and what she wish she knew before becoming an entrepreneur: What's your background? Have the arts always been part of your life? I worked at Apple for many years on the Worldwide Product Marketing Team. My role was to travel around the country introducing Apple's professional music software, Logic Pro, and music production techniques to world touring bands, DJs and producers. Dot Bustelo Courtesy of Affixmusic I am also a long-time electronic music producer myself and started my career in music equipment sales, which all led to this role at Apple. The vision of Loupe was born while working in the music industry, spending long hours in recording studios, and constantly looking for visual inspiration to support the creative energy in the room. So cool. Have you always found art to be relaxing? For as far back as I can remember, I've sought out environments where I could quiet the mind, be in a zone to relax, be comfortable, and most of all, be inspired. Dim the lights, enjoy some candles, add one blue light and pour the right beverage, and it'll create the zone and ambience in my studio to work on music. I'd often turn on old 1940s movies without the sound – movies that starred Cary Grant, Gregory Peck, Audrey Hepburn, Lana Turner or my other favorite directors of visuals sci-fi. For around an entire year, I left ANIMATRIX running with no sound. It always amazed me how well these great images fit with whatever music was playing, and how much people who visited enjoyed the atmosphere. I began thinking about the over 120 million people streaming music at home, and what they were doing with their TVs. And I thought about the technology of streaming music, which has become the accepted norm. Why not apply this technology to visual art? What was the moment when you knew you had to be an entrepreneur? I honestly never had that moment. I had only a vision of something I saw clearly that I wanted to exist, and that was contagious. A team of creative and talented people emerged around that idea and myself. What was the moment you knew you were onto something? A young friend who worked for one of the major upscale hotel chains as a concierge looked me in the eye when I shared my idea and said he wanted to be the one to bring Loupe to his hotel's global branding team. Funnily enough, he is now marketing director in New York at one of their properties and we are working on that as we speak. Moral of that story? Never judge anyone's value by their current position or resume – only by your intuition. What is your goal for Loupe Art? My goal is to hear about people walking into a faraway hotel, cocktail lounge, airport terminal or other memorable space and see extraordinary art streaming on ultra-thin LED displays and other ubiquitous surfaces. They'll smile, retelling the moment they first caught a glimpse of Loupe, the music that was playing, the company they were with, and the experience of Loupe. They return home and continue to enjoy Loupe with their friends and family, building infinitely-customizable playlists of visual art. We are applying streaming technology to visual art so people can be as immersed in art as we are with music. I hope to expand the physical experience of great art – like that first visit to the Louvre – to infinite physical locations, times of day, and moods. What's next for your company? By launching on Apple TV, we were able to enter global markets at launch. Apple populates all Apple TV App Stores around the world with our service. With Loupe's managing partner Karrie Bran now based in Europe (owner of The Kagency, a New York-based events company representing 400 venues and a client list of luxury brands), we plan to expand our sponsored art channels, installations, events and marketplace sales into Europe and other global markets. Loupe launched the paid guest-curated channel program in 2017, allowing museums, galleries, art festivals and other art-centric businesses to have a channel on our platform. It is a stunning channel launched in January by New York Art Gallery/Art Installation Services company ARTI.NYC. Talks are underway with many other exciting art-centric brands and partners who see the opportunity to be part of a new global art platform. What advice would you give female entrepreneurs? The same advice I would give to male entrepreneurs. Stay true to your original vision. Live the passion fully and authentically, and you will draw in extraordinary people to move it forward. They will open doors while others may do the opposite, but no one ever holds you back except yourself. What's surprised you the most about being a female entrepreneur? I don't focus on my gender or surprises about starting a company as gender-specific. The less I do, the less I feel it being part of the dialogue with others or their perception of me. It's very difficult to start your own business and I don't think the challenges of going from "zero to one" of building a business are easier with either gender. I suppose this may come from having worked in such a male-dominated industry for so long. I could either find the gender part of my work or table it. This month, Loupe was honored as a Finalist for a Global Impact Award in the Category of Innovation by the City of Atlanta for contributing to the city's exponential growth into global markets in technology and business. I happened to be the only one of the 12 finalists that was female when we were all brought to the podium. A few people in the audience pointed that out to me afterwards and thanked me for being there. I took note, and kept moving. Back to work.

3 Best Sporting Moments of 2010
Here are three of the best sporting moments of 2010.
Some photographs I took with slow shutter speeds during Guy Fawkes night!

Writing For The Web Workshop!
Sir Jimmy Saville to receive a permanent memorial in Leeds?
Sir Jimmy Saville died at his home in Roundhay in Leeds at the age of 84.
Leeds city council are this week going to ask for the opinions of local people in Leeds to find out whether people want a Jimmy Saville memorial. They want to know whether people want to celebrate his life and all his achievements with a statue, a plaque or some sort of memorial to Jimmy Saville.
Leeds city council believe that he deserves some sort of recognition for his devotion to Leeds. He was born in Leeds and died in Leeds and should be remembered as a Leeds legend. The leeds city council have said that they are planning something for Jimmy Saville but need the opinions of local people that knew him well what they think should be done in memory of Sir Jimmy Saville.
There is also apparently a statue of Sir Jimmy Saville wanted in Scarborough where he had a holiday home for more than 40 years. Surely if he is recognised in his holiday home and they want a memorial of Sir Jimmy Saville then his hometown should recognise him and all he achieved and produce a memorial much bigger than the one in Scarborough.

Yes. However, you
can not remove programs you are no longer interested in. As a courtesy,

"My Programs" tab. Programs have
until November 27 to review applications. If the program has not
made any notes or the Interview Column is blank after this date, you can contact the

No. Because podiatry is a much
smaller profession (450 in the Match last year vs. 30,000 for allopathic medicine),
there is no couples match. Many of our residencies are grouped together, around the
colleges or in major cities, so finding two programs near each other is very possible.
New York, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Miami and Chicago are all examples of this.
If you are looking at programs like Intermountain in Utah that have multiple positions
but are not near any other programs, you may want to talk to the residency director about
your situation. To guarantee that you are in the same part of the country you may have
to limit your rankings to one state or region.
The basis for the CASPR match program
is the comparison of priority selections by the applicants and the podiatric residency programs,
recorded on the CASPRweb.org site. In the match, the confidential Ranking Forms
(numerical rank orders) are the only determinants of offers and acceptances of residency spaces.
An applicant will be matched with the highest choice on his/her Ranking Form, provided that
residency program also chose that applicant before having its spaces filled with applicants which
it ranked higher. An applicant's chances for being selected by second or third choice programs are not
diminished just because they are of a lower priority.

Fat Camp
April 29, 2017
Second annual Fat Camp Fat Bike Race to be held at Brown County Reforestation Camp on the groomed nordic ski trails.
This year we are doing the race a bit different. We will be having three race categories, Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced. Based on the skill level will vary the course layout( in some cases) and length of the race. For this year we also decided to switch things up by having the Advanced riders to race first, then the Intermediate and then Beginner. We think this will appeal more to the racers and make it a better layout for everyone involved.
Here it is folks! Our make up date to Fat Camp! Except now we will be bringing it to the dirt single track! Same format as Snow Crown Races with Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced. But we'll also have 2 classes to choose from... fat or skinny. Sign up today online or stop down at our shop to register. Be sure to stick around for the after party (live music) sponsored by your favorite local breweries and restaurants.

Today in the Babelisation and disorder of the psychoanalytic movement, the Lacanian theory constitutes the open reformulation of the psychoanalytic theory invented by Freud. It is a reformulation which takes into account the transformation of scientific epistemology and progress of mathematics.

The Covert Freud and the Lights He Lit on Western Culture
There were many Freuds: the scholar, the academic, the researcher, the neurologist, the founder of the new discipline: psychoanalysis, and Viennese professional. All were noted for their rejection of religion and their identification with prevalent German culture. This was the picture painted by Freud's principal biographers: Ernest Jones, Peter Gay and Ronald Clark. They agreed that Freud came from an assimilated Jewish background and he was a completely secular intellectual.
Psychoanalyst and playwright Antonio Quinet discusses the origins of his play about Freud
Hilda and Freud: Collected Words
This is a play on Hilda Doolittle's analysis with Freud. The play is based on H. D.´s (Hilda Doolittle) Tribute to Freud, the letters, as well as some of her poetry, that she exchanged with Freud and her literary circle. Hilda, a forty-seven-year old poet met Freud, then in his late seventies, in 1930s Vienna. It was the beginning of a startling "love affair", with exchanges of gifts, letters, and flowers, within and beyond the psychoanalytical setting. It was written to be performed by The Unconscious on Stage Company at the Freud Museum London from 12th to 16th November 2013.
Tom Ormay's theory of the fundamental social nature of all human beings
The Social Nature of Persons: One Person is No Person
By presenting a series of interconnected studies, effort is made to approach timely questions regarding the social nature of human beings. A new part of the structural theory of the personality is presented, called "nos". Instead of attempting a definition at the beginning, it is more expressive of our subject if slowly, chapter by chapter some of it emerges, always from a specific viewpoint. Such method may not satisfy some disciplined minds, as it lacks a tightly organised frame in which everything duly falls into its place. I want to introduce the subject not only from an intellectual viewpoint, but allow relevant feelings to come in also. The result awakens not only our logic, but hopefully the whole person.
Hendrika C. Freud on Marcel Proust, Masochism, and Matricide
The subject of the mother-son relationship had never been broached with such psychological insight as in Marcel Proust's Remembrance of Things Past (1921). Indeed, we had to wait until 1969 before Philip Roth revisited the subject in Portnoy's Complaint.
Yet Proust writes about the mother in such an innocuous and idealizing manner that to the unsuspecting reader it appears an unambiguously loving relationship. However, in earlier works, such as Jean Santeuil (c.1897) and short stories dating from his youth, Proust expressed himself in a less veiled style. Moreover, a letter to his mother written when he was more than forty years old is even more revealing. In it he complains that she still treats him as a four year-old child. Her aim seems to have been to control him mentally as well as physically.
Proust developed a sexual perversion. He became a sadomasochist and shows in his novel how this preference can develop. Generations of analysts after Sigmund Freud have maintained the explanation of masochism put forward in Freud's paper, 'A Child is Being Beaten': the boy wants to be beaten by father as a replacement for being loved by him. The Oedipal father is the central figure in this account, rather than the mother. Indeed, Freud idealized the mother-son relationship, calling it 'the least ambivalent and the most loving' of all human bonds. He used only female cases for his theory of masochism. No male cases at all were explored, with only a mention of how passive feminine strivings are the source of masochism in males.
Like Proust, Freud derived his psychological knowledge in great part from subjective experience. But his experience with his mother was very different from that of Proust, who never overcame her domination. Consequently, Proust felt that in order to enjoy his (homo)sexuality he had to escape her control. Because his pleasure insulted his mother, then profaning and even murderous phantasies concerning mother figures became a condition for his pleasure and sexual excitement. This is the perversion that drives all his male protagonists throughout his novel.
The Oedipal concept of 'the boy in love with mother and wanting to kill father' is turned upside down. The boy has not overcome his dependent position towards his mother. He has not reached a triadic Oedipal relationship. Consequently, he has to escape her control momentarily, to function as a sexual being at all. To channel his anxiety and aggression in a perverse sexual scenario enables him to become excited and potent. But this is compulsive, repetitive and not at all a free choice.
In my opinion, matricide (rather than patricide) has not received the attention within and outside of psychoanalysis that it deserves. Besides mother-son pathology, the concept clarifies much mother-daughter pathology as well. Such murderous phantasies and dreams are not uncommon in either men or women, but there is a crucial difference that must be observed: femininity is not threatened by unresolved dependency on the mother, unlike masculinity in males.

Call Of Duty: Infinite Warfare
2016 has been a strange year, so why not take the Call of Duty action into space?
This year was Infinity Ward's turn at a Call of Duty game, something that must be getting more and more difficult with each entry in the franchise to come up with something new. Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare offers a compelling single player campaign, the great multiplayer that the CoD series is known for, and a wonderfully zany Zombies mode, all of which offer something new to evolve the series. Hats off to Infinity Ward, it's all pretty damn good.
While it may be initially skipped over by players eager to test their mettle in the multiplayer game, the single player campaign is one of the stand out features in Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, and one of the best single player campaigns in recent years. We are talking blockbuster action, cinematic cut scenes and a story that is incredibly immersive.
Set in the future, humans have left the confines of the Earth and spread out throughout the solar system. The UNSA are the controlling faction, but a second faction known as the SDF are causing all manner of problems as they fight for overall control. Led by the ruthless Admiral Koch, played by Game of Thrones' Kit Harrington, the SDF are quickly leaving a swathe of destruction with their unwavering ideologies.
The player takes on the role of Captain Nick Reyes and is quickly given control of the Retribution, a massive UNSA warship. What follows is a tale worthy of a Hollywood blockbuster as the narrative pits the heroic Captain Nick against the impressively evil Admiral Koch. But the player is not alone in facing the mammoth task of taking down Koch, and is joined by an impressive cast of support characters, including the excellent ultimate robot soldier ETH.3n. These supporting characters, even the robot, all grow in personality through the course of the game, and become companions in the truest sense of the word. They also add an emotional slant to the game as the player becomes invested in the relationships between Reyes and these characters.
When it comes to the gameplay, there is a lot of the Call of Duty that players have come to know and love, with a few departures from the norm. As the player picks missions from the bridge, including side missions which are a nice touch, they will travel to some awesome settings through the solar system. A particular highlight, and something that feels less of a tacked on mode and more of an integrated function, are the dogfights in which the player will step into their Jackal ship and zip around in space, locking onto targets and firing flares to confuse enemy missiles. Controlling the ship is sublime, and the actual dogfights are incredibly immersive. But they don't stop there, as players will even have the opportunity to land their Jackal on gigantic warships and leap out into much more standard Call of Duty gameplay at times.
But even then, the gameplay is not necessarily standard. Infinite Warfare spends a lot of time in space, and so gravity is not something that the player can always rely on. Combat in zero gravity is just as much fun as on terra firma, just with the inclusion of floaty maneuvering and a grapple option, which can be used not only to get closer to objects, but can bring objects, and enemies, closer to the player. When it comes to the other equipment available in Infinite Warfare, players need not worry that it will all be about weird futuristic weaponry. There are plenty of standard guns in the game, and the more exotic weapons are not so strange that they don't fit in with the CoD gameplay.
The single player campaign is terrific and well worth playing, but it is the multiplayer that will attract most players in Infinite Warfare. Here, things are much more normal and will feel quite comfortable to veteran CoD players. Of course, the setting is more futuristic, with some awesome maps, as are some of the weapons. Wall running works really well, although not quite to the degree found in TitanFall. Classes are represented in the game as Combat Rigs which give the player a chance to choose one according to their playstyle, plus the option to tweak the Rig to their liking. There is even some crafting in the game that is paid for with in-game currency. Being able to upgrade your weapons, or even add some cosmetics, is a great addition.
And there are plenty of modes for players to enjoy. All of the usual suspects are there, such as Team Deathmatch, and Domination, while there are some new contenders for our time, like Defender and Gun Game, offer something new for the players to get their teeth into and enjoy. There are some 14 different modes, so plenty there to keep players busy until the first batch of DLC arrives.
Then, of course, we have the series' hugely entertaining Zombies mode. This great co-operative mode has become a firm favorite with players, and this time round things are set to get even stranger. Set in a 1980s theme park, players will fight off waves of zombies to earn the cash needed for more weapons and unlocking new areas. It's a great, albeit somewhat crazy, mode that will entertain players and offer some light relief from all of the futuristic carnage.
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare feels like one of the best CoD games in recent years. While the single player campaign and multiplayer game may have headed into a more futuristic theme, it still feels like a CoD game at heart. The changes are not so great as to alienate veteran players, and the game is packed with great content.There is a lot here to do, and each mode offers something new for the player. Grab it if you want a shooter that will last ages.
