The questions have become so familiar, by now.
What did Pope Francis say this time?
What did the mainstream press say that Pope Francis said this time?
The wise news consumer, of course, asks one more question: Does the Vatican or some other form of Catholic media have a transcript posted online that shows us what Pope Francis actually said this time and perhaps even enough context to know what the words that he said may have meant?
The classic case of this syndrome, of course, is the infamous "Who am I to judge?" quote that launched a million headlines. Have you ever actually read a transcript on that one? Please do so, because it's enlightening.
Now we have the pope's statements expressing a surprising degree of openness to seeing married men ordained as priests (other than in the Eastern rite and in cases of Anglicans and Lutherans moving into Catholic ministry). That story has actually received some pretty decent coverage, in my opinion. If you've seen stories that botched it, please let your GetReligionistas hear about it.
Meanwhile, it's clear that wise news consumers need some guidelines on how to read coverage of off-the-cuff, spontaneous remarks by Pope Francis. The person I would turn to, of course, is the omnipresent John L. Allen, Jr. of Crux (who I actually got to meet the other night, after years of online and telephone contacts).
Allen has written a Crux think piece that will do the trick, with this headline: "Rules of thumb for processing the latest papal bombshell." He notes, with a nod to realities deeper than newsprint:
Whenever these bombshells explode, pundits and commentators go into overdrive trying to explain (and sometimes spin) what the pope actually meant. Less noticed, however, is the grassroots pastoral challenge they create, as parish priests and other Church personnel scramble to answer people's questions about what was said and what it might mean.
Ah, in addition to news producers and consumers, this analysis piece is also for Catholics in the pews. Got it. Please read it all, but here are thumbnails on his three guidelines:
First, whatever else these bombshells may be, they are clearly not a formal expression of the pope's teaching authority. If Francis wanted to declare a new dogma binding on Catholic consciences, he knows how to do it, and a one-off zinger in a press conference isn't it.
That's not to say, of course, one should simply disregard whatever the pope says in these informal settings. He's the pope, and his words always deserve to be received with respect. However, his opinion on the Charlie Hebdo attacks obviously doesn't have the same standing as, say, declarations in the Creed about the Trinity or about Christ.
And also, it helps to place a higher priority on quotes from things that the pope has written or spoken in formal church settings.
Second, it's important to remember that these one-liners don't always capture the pope's own priorities. Often they've come in response to questions other people have asked him, rather than something he brought up himself. ...
While the soundbite may help define Francis from a media point of view, it's probably not how he himself sees the heart of his papacy.
Finally, always look for context, context and more context.
The "breeding like rabbits" soundbite, for instance, was initially taken in some circles as a step back from the Church's opposition to artificial birth control, but in context the pontiff appeared to be talking about Natural Family Planning and other Church-approved strategies for what Francis called "responsible parenthood."
"In the Church there are matrimonial groups who are experts in this, there are pastors," he said. "I know many of them, and [they have] many licit solutions that can help."
Now, journalists are journalists. Do you really expect editors not to run a headline containing the word "pope" and "breeding like rabbits"? No way.
The Internet takes these zingers and flings them all over the place. However, the same Internet also makes it possible for reporters, readers and parishioners to, with a few clicks of a mouse, find full transcripts of papal remarks, often starting here and then here.
Be careful out there.

The reason my father's still using IE is because it'd be hell explaining to him why the odd badly-coded page doesn't work, and the "well, don't use that page" argument won't wash with him. Which is a shame, 'cause it'd be better for him, so to speak.
Granted, the vast majority of pages work fine with it now, but I'm willing to bet if he started using it, he'd find about 10 broken sites in the first hour... Just not worth the hassle.

Tell me about it. I keep an eye on it and so far it's not gotten any spyware/viruses/etc. on it so touch-wood it's okay. I'd love to set up ad blocking but the same problem rears its ugly head with so many special offers etc. processed through the same people that do the banner ads, e.g. offers from BA via email.
So he gets to deal with the ads...

The Lenten Journey Begins
Today is Ash Wednesday—the beginning of Lent—our journey towards Easter. Maybe you're thinking, "Easter? That's like six weeks away!! Why start preparing already?" There lies the misfortune of much of the modern church. We have become a people who "live for today!" Carpe Diem! Our culture has taught us to overcome the past and to pay attention to the future only when it arrives. Lent is a time to prepare—physically, emotionally, intellectually, and (wrapped up in the previous) spiritually. It is a time for those who follow Jesus to prepare for the single most important celebration of the year, Resurrection Sunday. Christmas lovers will have to step aside on this one. I don't mean to demean Christmas as a holiday, but it too ought to lead us towards Easter. I think what I'm going to enjoy about Lent and preparing for Easter is the distinctness it will have over Christmas. EVERYONE celebrates Christmas and it begins 2 months early. Not so with Easter. Easter is a one day event for the greater society. With Lent, we get to prepare and anticipate and be distinct doing it—hopefully for many to see!
Over the course of these weeks, I will give snippets and highlights about the meaning of Lent. I'd love your questions, too. But for today, I'd simply like to share a symbol that I think describes the season of Lent. BAPTISM. You will often hear this phrase said when someone is being baptized is—"you have been buried with him in death…and raised with him to new life!" Lent focuses on the same two things, just not in one event. Rather, we spend weeks identifying with the life, death and resurrection of Jesus.
Ash Wednesday is the first day and gathering time for Lent. If you go to a service, it will likely be solemn and reverent. Its intent is to help us reflect on our own mortality and our sin and our need for repentance. Ash Wednesday is most known for the imposition of the ashes. Traditionally, the ashes will be made from burning the palm leaves from the previous year's Palm Sunday. They are then placed on the forehead in the shape of a cross, while the celebrant says, "Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return."
It is a time for me to be reminded of my mortality…a time for me to be reminded that though I live for myself much of the time, I am not God. He has made me. He has called me. He is saving me. But I am still a speck of dust. I am humbled. And that is a good thing.
This post has gone long enough. I hope you will consider going to some Lenten services. I hope you will find a daily reading guide to follow along with the other millions of saints who will be reading during Lent. I hope you will find the next several weeks uniquely spiritual and transforming and exciting.
Tomorrow/Friday—Are you going to fast from something during Lent? I'll tell you mine if you'll tell me yours!

The MP3 is dead, according to its creators, who say that the digital audio encoding format has lost relevance in a world of new technology.
The Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits, part of the German research body which funded the technology, has terminated its licensing program for certain MP3-related patents after almost two decades.
The institute said that while the MP3 is still popular with consumers, it has been outpaced by "more efficient audio codecs" with more advanced features.

I began my week with major pms.
Whether it was pms or a combination of work overload or the fact that my "holidays" were over, joining forces to drop me into an emotional state, I was not the most pleasant person to be around early in the week. On an even darker note, I found out that the SD Card I had been using during my travels in Croatia was totally corrupt, meaning the files from Supetar and Blue Lagoon are totally gone and cannot be recovered. Since I worked out almost immediately on the day that my files were eating themselves in a folder in my fancy schmancy new camera, my nerves have been on edge as some of the best footage came from those 24 hours. *Insert crying face here* Even the footage of me getting busted by police with a bottle of vodka on the streets of Supetar in Brac & getting away with it has to be faded into our memories (I got away with a 100€ on the spot fine). Well, basically I was told to go home, instead I did a victory dance in the middle of the street but have since checked myself into online AA. You'll hear more about this in the next few months as I progress into a more sober lifestyle.

If you know me (and if you read this blog frequently you can pretty well say that you do...) you likely know that I like a good KRAFT recipe... but since they usually use brand name products or items that I usually don't buy when I make their recipes I am typically
"inspired by"
them not really making them...
So here is another "inspired by" recipe that I found through Kraft.
This is a super simple recipe that you can make ahead or make on the spot. The original recipe can be found here.
However this is how I made them...
6 potatoes (peeled and cut into chunks)
1/3 cup ranch dressing
1/2 to 3/4 cup of cheese shredded
(I used cheddar but you could mix it up with your favorite cheese)
Bacon bits (optional)
Chives (optional)
Boil potatoes, mash with ranch dressing, press cooled mashed potatoes in an oven safe dish and top with cheese, bacon bits and chives if using.
Chill in the fridge over night or bake "on the spot".
Bake at 350 for 30 mins until heated through if made ahead
at 350 for 20 mins if made "on the spot".
This makes for an easy side or a great pot luck dish that you just warm up once you reach the party!
And its super yummy too!
Happy Monday!

Commenting on the news that a Banff man had an urgent hospital appointment cancelled because UniChem – who are now the sole suppliers of Pfizer drugs to community pharmacies – could not deliver a drug at the requested time, SNP candidate for Banff & Buchan Stewart Stevenson has called for the needs of patients to be paramount.
Mr Stevenson has strongly criticised Pfizer after being contacted by worried pharmacists in his constituency who say that the plans will put at risk the security of supply of patient medicines in the North of Scotland and force them to deal with a wholesale firm which has no distribution depots north of Livingston.
The SNP candidate has visited community pharmacies in Cruden Bay and New Deer in recent weeks hearing their concerns at first hand.
Speaking from the campaign trail in Gardenstown, Stewart Stevenson said:
"This is exactly the sort of problem that pharmacists flagged up with me and which Pfizer were told repeatedly would be an inevitable consequence of their new distribution system.
"I am absolutely appalled that the consequences of this are that at least one person has had their hospital appointment cancelled because the required medication for them to take at home in advance of their hospital visit could not be delivered in time.
"It completely vindicates the concerns of all the local pharmacists I have spoken to and makes it even more important that the OFT investigate. I know that the Health Minister has expressed similar concerns after I raised the issue with him last month and that he, too, has written to Pfizer."

Carbon-Free Human-Powered Transportation
transport of person(s) and/or goods using human muscle power. Like animal-powered transport, human-powered transport has existed since time immemorial in the form of walking, running and swimming. Modern technology has allowed machines to enhance human-power. Although motorization has increased speed and load capacity, many forms of human-powered transport remain popular for reasons of lower cost, leisure, physical exercise and environmentalism. Human-powered transport is sometimes the only type available, especially in underdeveloped or inaccessible regions.
Available muscle powerRace Across America, one team (Team Strawberry) [1] used an experimental device that consisted of a rear wheel hub, a sensor and a handlebar mounted processor. The device measured each cyclist's power output in watts. In lab experiments an average "in-shape" cyclist can produce about 3 watts/kg for more than an hour (e.g., around 200 watts for a 70 kg rider), with top amateurs producing 5 watts/kg and elite athletes achieving 6 watts/kg for similar lengths of time. Elite track sprint cyclists are able to attain an instantaneous maximum output of around 2,000 watts, or in excess of 25 watts/kg; elite road cyclists may produce 1,600 to 1,700 watts as an instantaneous maximum in their burst to the finish line at the end of a five-hour long road race.
- Crawling
- Walking (240 watts)
- Running (1000 watts)
- Sprinting (1700 watts at 25 km/h)[2]
- Swimming and diving
- Climbing as in mountaineering and abseiling

Human-powered land vehiclesland vehicles, such as the handcar (a human-powered railroad car), normally travel at ground level but can also travel above (for example, on a trestle) and below ground (such as when used in mining). Skateboards have the advantage of being so small and light that users can easily carry them when not skating. The most efficient human-powered land vehicle is the bicycle.[3] Compared to the much more common upright bicycle, the recumbent bicycle may be faster on level ground or down hills due to better aerodynamics while having similar power transfer efficiency. In 2009, Sam Whittingham pedaled a streamliner (a fully-faired recumbent) for 200 m at 133.284 km/h (82.819 mph) in the Varna Tempest.[4] Velomobiles and cabin cycles are increasingly popular in colder and/or wetter countries due to the protection they offer against the environment. Freight bicycles are used as low-cost, zero-emission vehicles to haul cargo. Cycle rickshaws can be used as taxicabs. Dutch cyclist, Fred Rompelberg set a 268.8 km/h (166.9 mph) speed record at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah on October 3, 1995 while cycling in the wake of a motor dragster pace-car.[5] The wake of the pace-car reduced the aerodynamic drag against which Rompelberg pedalled to almost zero.[6] Greg Kolodziejzyk set two world records recognized by both the International Human Powered Vehicle Association and Guinness (TM) World Records on July 17, 2006 on a race track in Eureka, California. The first record is for the most distance traveled in 24 hours by human power (647 miles, 1041 km), and the second for the worlds fastest 1000 km time trial (23 hours, 2 minutes).[7] In 1969, artists in a small Northern California town began the Kinetic sculpture race which has grown to a 42-mile (67.2-km), three-day all terrain, human-powered sculpture race and county wide event. It is held every year on the last weekend in May.
Human-powered aircraft
Main article: Human-powered aircraft
Fixed-wing aircraftPedaliante flew short distances fully under human power in 1936, but the distances were not significant enough to win the prize of the Italian competition for which it was built. Furthermore, the fully human-powered flights were deemed to be a result of the pilot's significant strength and endurance; and ultimately not attainable by a typical human. Additional attempts were made in 1937 and 1938 using a catapult system, launching the plane to a height of 9 metres (30 ft). With the catapult launch, the plane successfully traveled the 1 km (0.62 mi) distance outlined by the competition, but was declined the prize due to the takeoff method.[8][9][10] The first officially authenticated regularly-feasible take-off and landing of a human-powered aircraft (one capable of powered takeoffs, unlike a glider) was made on 9 November 1961 by Derek Piggott in Southampton University's Man Powered Aircraft (SUMPAC). Perhaps the best-known human-powered plane is the Gossamer Albatross, which flew across the English Channel in 1979. The current distance and duration record recognised by the FAI was achieved on 23 April 1988 from Iraklion on Crete to Santorini in a MIT Daedalus 88 piloted by Kanellos Kanellopoulos: a straight distance of 115.11 km (74 miles) in 3 hours, 54 minutes. The current speed record is held by the Monarch B, built by a team at MIT in 1983, which won a Kremer Prize of £20,000 for sustaining a speed of over 30 km/h over a 1.5 km triangular course.
Main article: Human-powered helicopterThe first officially observed human-powered helicopter to have left the ground was the Da Vinci III in 1989. It was designed and built by students at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo in California, USA. It flew for 7.1 seconds and reached a height of 8 inches (20 cm). The second was the Yuri I in 1994, designed and built by students at Nihon University in Japan. It flew for 19.46 seconds and reached an altitude of 20 cm. Both were attempts to win the Sikorsky Prize.
Airships and balloonsFrench inventors have built man-powered airships and balloons. Solar hot air balloons and solar hot air airships are new types of balloons and airships.[11] Because lift is supplied through buoyancy, human power can be devoted to thrust.[12][13]
Human-powered watercraftgalleys. The term human-powered boat is often used for more modern craft using propellers and water wheels for propulsion. These can be more efficient than paddles or oars and especially allow the use of the leg muscles which are generally strong also with non-athletes. In addition, there is little skill required for forward propulsion while looking forwards and such craft are popular at resorts as pedalos.
HydrofoilHydrofoils have less water resistance at the highest speeds just obtainable by humans and are thus usually faster than displacement boats on short courses. The world speed record on water was set 27 October 1991 by MIT Professor Mark Drela who pedalled a human-powered hydrofoil, "Decavitator", to 18.5 knots (21.3 mph)(9.53 meters/second) over a 100 meter race course in Boston, Massachusetts.
SubmarinesIn 1989, the first human-powered International Submarine Race (ISR) was held in Florida with 17 craft. Since then nine more races have been held. The races themselves have been moved from the waters of Florida to the United States Naval Surface Warfare Center's Carderock Division David Taylor Model Basin in Bethesda, Maryland, and are held biennially. At the 9th ISR in 2007 (in which 23 submarines participated) several new records were set: A single-person craft, Omer5 achieved a record speed of 8.035 knots breaking the Omer team's previous record of 7.19 knots set by Omer 4 in 2004. Also Omer 6 snatched up a record for non-propeller driven craft with a speed of 4.642 knots.[14]

Today is our oldest daughter's birthday so in honor of her 18 years of life, I thought I would share 18 memories we have shared with Lauryn.
18. From the time she was a baby she jet-setted between Florida, Tennessee and even New York. Every time she saw my mom she would grab her suitcase and wave goodbye to me.
17. As a toddler, she had an independent streak (wait she still does!).
16. To let us know she was serious, she would end her comments with the phrase, "And that's a period!"
15. She NEVER wore pants until we moved to North Carolina and it was too cold to wear dresses.
14. Every day we walked 1 1/2 miles (each way) to take James to school. She always made the walk an adventure sometimes with her baby dolls and occasionally with her stroller.
13. After shower time, she would run down the hallway, with her hair all poofed up from having it blow dried upside down, and say, "Mommy I'm worth it!" Remember the L'Oreal commercials.
12. When her sister was born...well you'll just have to read it for yourself.
11. She loved to watch Sesame Street but would cleverly leave the room during the educational parts and then return for the fun stuff.
10. When riding with in her aunt's convertible, she would always ask to put the "lid" down.
9. She broke her arm when she fell off her bike...with training wheels just after we moved to North Carolina.9. After watching the Olsen twins' movie, Holiday in the Sun, she mentioned to one of her aunts that she wanted to go to the Bahamas one day just like the Olsen's. Within just a few months she was playing at the Atlantis and swimming with dolphins on her very own Holiday in the Sun.
7. Trying to give her an outlet for her desire to rescue animals, she volunteered at a shelter. We had told her she could not have an animal unless she could pay for the shots. Thinking we had dodged a bullet we sighed with relief. Within just a few weeks she informed us that she had 2 puppies that needed a home and their shots were already paid for! And so we got Izzy & George
6. One morning after dropping our youngest daughter off at school, Lauryn called me on the cell phone to ask if dad would be mad if she rescued a cat from the rainstorm. I told her probably not but she should ask him. "Good," she replied, "he's already in the cat kennel in the basement."
5. Great conversations about anything and everything late into the night.
4. Watching Jane Austen and Cary Grant movies with her on any number of nights.
3. The day her little brother was born she had it all planned out.
2. Walking with her during our Walks for Lupus Now.
1. Watching her over the past few years as she learns who God wants her to be.
|Sitting with the lid down!
Happy 18th Birthday!

Prompton Lake, Wayne County, Pennsylvania
F. X. Browne, Inc. was retained by the Friends of Prompton State Park to perform watershed studies, identify potential sources of non-point source pollution throughout the lake's watershed, and develop a watershed management plan. We conducted water quality monitoring at the lake throughout an entire growing season and developed a pollutant budget for the lake. We worked with volunteers to assess and document nonpoint source problem areas in the watershed. Information obtained during the watershed tours were used to recommend restoration alternative methods with respect to cost, effectiveness, environmental impacts, and their applicability to the Prompton Lake watershed area. The final outcome of the project was a comprehensive watershed management plan for the Prompton Lake watershed.
Union County, New Jersey
F. X. Browne, Inc. has worked with Union County since 1995. We prepared Watershed Management Plans for 11 of their 30 County lakes and are currently helping to implement those management plans. For each lake, we collected water samples for a six month period, conducted laboratory analysis, evaluated all water quality data, conducted macrophyte and bathymetric surveys, evaluated land use, soils, slopes, geology, wetlands and other features of each watershed, conducted detailed watershed investigations to identify nonpoint source pollution problem areas, developed restoration alternatives for each problem, ranked problems, and developed comprehensive watershed management plans. The watershed management plans included both in-lake and watershed-based controls to help improve water quality conditions in the lakes.
Once the watershed management plans were prepared and adopted by the County, we began and continue to assist the county in implementing the plans. We have designed a dredging project for Lake Surprise which was completed in 2003. We also designed 6 stormwater BMPs and one agricultural BMP (animal waste storage facility) within the Watchung Park surrounding Lake Surprise. These BMPs are permitted and should be put out to bid for construction in the near future. Additionally, we have designed a dredging project for Upper Echo Lake and Cedar Brook Lake. The Cedar Brook Lake Project also includes detailed shoreline stabilization of the entire lake shoreline including bioengineering and natural stabilization areas, fishing areas, and a seat wall. A lake aeration system was designed for Cedar Brook Lake. F. X. Browne, Inc. also prepared conceptual designs of infiltration areas and bioretention systems in the Cedar Brook watershed to treat stormwater runoff before it enters the lake. F. X. Browne, Inc. is also working with Union County on the restoration of Warinanco Park Lake. We have designed shoreline stabilization measures for the lake that will be constructed this spring. We designed modifications to an existing lagoon just upstream of the lake to convert it into a constructed wetland that will treat stormwater prior to entering the main lake. In addition, we designed kiosks and fact sheets for public display at Lake Surprise, Cedar Brook Lake, and Warinanco Park Lake.

Before letting you read this content Best Web Hosting India, let me set up a mindset for you to understand how hard I worked to bring you this list of Best Web Hosting India services.
First, Unlike other sites which recommend some random hosting companies, I'm really proud of our data-based Best Web Hosting India reports.
A2 Hosting
For the Hostingstep project, I signed up with multiple hosting companies as a customer, installed a WordPress demo site and started monitoring uptime & response time, for every second since 2016.
So obviously, even if a hosting company pays $200+ affiliate commission but comes with poor uptime and speed, with no mercy, I put them at the end of top web hosting companies list.
Here is our handpicked and the greatest three hosting companies that offers premium, feature-rich hosting solutions for the money you paid.
Tips to Choose Best Web Hosting India
- SiteGround ranked #1 for the reason, they offer highest uptime, best support among all.
- A2 Hosting ranked #1 for the main reason, they support Indian credit/Debit cards, UPI and wallets.
- FastComet ranked #2 for the reason, they offer free domain for lifetime, same renewal prices forever.
We have tested more than 10 hosting companies but trust me, every other hosting company had some terrible flaws like higher pricing, more upsells, poor customer support etc.
Best Web Hosting India
1. SiteGround – The Best Web Hosting India
People often complain about the lack of customer service through some hosting providers, but this will not be the case with SiteGround. This service is heralded for offering the best customer service in the industry. You can instantly talk or chat to an customer executive in seconds
SiteGround has the best uptime in the industry (99.99%) and also offers best response time (344ms) for over years. If you look at the below graph, you can how consistent the server response time.
Best of SiteGround
- Easily, SiteGround is the #1 hosting that offers better uptime & speed than others.
- Hosting pack costs $3.95/month with just 12 months commitment.
- The official WordPress recommends SiteGround as best hosting to get started.

- Faster in implementing latest tech like PHP 7, HTTP/2, LXD Containers, HHVM.
Also Ranked for #1 Best Web Hosting | #1 WordPress Hosting | #1 in live customer support | #1 GoDaddy Alternative | Read SiteGround Reviews
2. FastComet – Working on the Cloud
FastComet has some greater features or offers that's surely going to attract. In the complete hosting industry, FastComet is the only hosting company to offer free domain for lifetime and same renewal price forever.
Suppose you get an hosting account for $2.95/month, the price remains same for your entire lifetime. can you name a hosting company that offers similar feature? you can't.
Best of FastComet
- Free domain name for lifetime & Same renewal price forever (Exclusive)
- Free daily & weekly backups & restore
- RocketBooster, inhouse developed five layer caching mechanism
- Only company to offer free GlobalSign SSL (usually costs more than $100)
- Eight datacenter locations (Most of all other companies)
I can bet FastComet can be considered as one of the greatest best web hosting India company.
3. A2 Hosting – Easy Payment Options
A2 Hosting advertises themselves as the fastest web hosting company, to confirm it further, I started testing them since 2016 and the best thing about A2 Hosting, Indian customers can make payment through various payment options like Credit/Debit card, UPI, and wallets.
If you check my A2 Hosting Reviews, you can see how faster their servers operates. The results are achieved even without the use of CDN. Also if you closely look into their plans, they offer Turbo hosting options which claims to work even more faster (20x)
Best of A2 Hosting
- Offers fastest WordPress hosting thanks to A2 Optimized WP Installation.
- Localized payment gateways for India through CCAvenue payment gateway.
- First of its kind in hosting industry, A2 offers Anytime Money back guarantee.
- Operates own datacenters, 100% US based support

A2 Hosting plan starts from $7.99/month but with Hostingstep, you can get 51% OFF on first billing, so you can get started for as low as $3.92/month.
The service also comes with anytime money back guarantee. You can get a full refund if you are not satisfied with your service within the first month of use or partial refund after 30 days of service.
While writing this article "Best Web Hosting in India" I added 5 companies to the list but then I realized the above three hosting companies offers the best in class features, best value for money and thought recommending two more hosting companies is not fine.
You can always visit our Homepage where I reviewed almost 10+ hosting companies and wrote both the best and worst.
Finally, If you don't have an international working card, choose A2 Hosting, the fastest web hosting to get started else you can go with SiteGround which has the best uptime and finally, if you look to save some money, go with FastComet which comes with same renewal price and free domain name for the lifetime.
All the above three options best suits for your search on Best Web Hosting India.

(References below to 2013 and 2012 are to the equivalent three months ended 30 September 2013 and 2012 respectively).
- Safety and Sustainability:
- Tragically, on 30 July 2013 a workplace fatality occurred at the Kayelekera Mine. The incident occurred in the mine's motor vehicle workshop where the worker was struck in the chest by a light vehicle wheel he was inflating. Prior to this tragic accident, Kayelekera Mine had operated for 489 days without an LTI.
- Post quarter, on 3 October 2013, there was a serious electrical incident at Langer Heinrich Mine involving one employee and two contractors being hospitalised. Two of the workers received significant burns while the third worker received smoke inhalation and has been discharged. The more seriously injured worker passed away on 29 October 2013.
- The Company is investigating both these incidents, with the findings and outcomes pending. A review of safety procedures within the group was initiated in July and as a result of these serious incidents, this has now been expanded to a full review to examine all aspects of safety.
- The Company's 12-month moving average Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR) continues to be low at 1.1. For the September quarter, there were no other LTIs.
- Production:
- Solid and steady production for the quarter of 2.044Mlb U3O8, on budget and an increase of 6% on the 30 September 2012 quarter.
- Langer Heinrich Mine (LHM):
- Record quarterly production of 1.429Mlb U3O8, an increase of 6% over the June 2013 quarter and 11% over the September 2012 quarter:
- Processing recovery for quarter of 88.7% versus budget of 90% for FY2014 increased from design of 85%.
- Feed grades for quarter of 837ppm U3O8 versus budget of 753ppm.
- Langer Heinrich C1 cost of production has fallen 12% from US$31.8/lb in the September 2012 quarter to US$28.0/lb in the September 2013 quarter.
- Langer Heinrich C1 cash costs are targeted to be reduced by a further 15% to approximately US$25/lb over FY2014 and FY2015 before the impact of inflation. Particular targets will focus on process reagent and water consumption, as well as operating efficiencies and process recovery. Target process recovery is 90%, an increase of 4% from FY2013.
- A reduction in discretionary capital expenditure of US$10.4M is targeted in FY2014.
- Record quarterly production of 1.429Mlb U3O8, an increase of 6% over the June 2013 quarter and 11% over the September 2012 quarter:
- Kayelekera Mine (KM):
- Production for the quarter of 0.615Mlb U3O8 was 9% below budget due to the extension of the planned shutdown.
- Production for July and September on budget.
- Processing recovery of 85.1% versus design of 87%.
- Feed grades of 1,261ppm U3O8 (design is 1,150ppm).
- Kayelekera C1 cost of production has fallen from US$49.0/lb in the September 2012 quarter to US$39.3/lb in the September 2013 quarter, a 20% improvement.
Kayelekera C1 cash costs are targeted to be reduced by a further 22% to approximately US$30.6/lb over FY2014 and FY2015 before the impact of inflation. Particular targets will focus on grid power coming on line and a new acid saving nano technology being integrated into the circuit.
- A reduction in discretionary capital expenditure of US$2M is targeted in FY2014.
- Production for the quarter of 0.615Mlb U3O8 was 9% below budget due to the extension of the planned shutdown.
- Cost Reduction Initiative:
- Post the reporting period, Paladin announced a cost rationalisation review and production optimisation analysis for FY2014 and FY2015. This review aims to further improve operational efficiency and continue on from the 9% and 25% C1 cash cost reductions achieved at Langer Heinrich and Kayelekera respectively during the June 2013 quarter compared with the June 2012 quarter.
- The combined corporate overhead and exploration cash budgets have been cut by US$10.8M, achieving an overall reduction in forecast cash costs for FY2014 of 24%.
- Head office rationalisation has included both a 34% reduction in head office personnel in the past two years and a 10% reduction to management personnel base salaries compared to FY2013. These cost reductions will be offset with a one-time allocation of Paladin share rights to those affected. No issues of share rights were made during FY2013. The 10% cut also applies to Paladin Board members, including the Managing Director, with no share rights offset being applied. This latest cut for the Managing Director is in addition to the 25% reduction announced previously. All bonus plans have been suspended and salaries will be frozen until the uranium price demonstrates sustainable improvement.
- Exploration budgets have been cut by 50%, with activities suspended on all projects except essential work on the Michelin Project in Labrador, Canada and some necessary follow-up work on the Mount Isa, Queensland project.
- Profit and Loss:
- Total sales volume for the quarter of 1.673Mlb U3O8 reflected a 37% increase over the quarter ended 30 September 2012 sales of 1.224Mlb U3O8.
- Sales revenue increased 13% from US$61.0M in 2012 to US$69.2M for the quarter ended 30 September 2013, as a result of the higher sales volumes. The average realised uranium sales price in 2013 was US$41.4/lb U3O8 (2012: US$49.8/lb U3O8) compared to the average UxC spot price for the quarter of US$36.0/lb U3O8.
- Gross loss for the quarter of US$14.9M compared to a gross profit in 2012 of US$1.7M was due to a 17% lower uranium price achieved in the quarter and a higher impairment of KM inventory of US$12.0M (2012: US$2.6M). This has been partially offset by a 37% increase in sales volume.
- Total impairment of US$15.5M for the quarter:
- US$12.0M has been recorded to reduce the cost of Kayelekera Mine inventory held to net realisable value.
- US$3.5M impairment of investments.
- Net loss after tax attributable to members of the Group of US$40.0M was recorded for the quarter.
- Cash Flow:
- Positive cashflow from operating activities of US$3.4M for the quarter was primarily due to receipts from customers of US$99.6M. Positive cashflow of US$1.8M was generated by the Langer Heinrich and Kayelekera operations for the quarter before investment in working capital required to support higher production levels and payments for administration, marketing and site non-production costs of US$19.2M. The remaining expenditure was US$0.4M for exploration and net interest paid of US$1.6M.
- Cash outflow from investing activities of US$13.0M for the quarter:
- Plant and equipment acquisitions of US$11.7M, predominantly the new tailings facility at LHM and nano filtration equipment and tailings pipeline at KM; and
- Capitalised exploration expenditure of US$1.7M. Exploration expenditure in foreseeable periods will be lower.
- Cash inflow from financing activities of US$56.3M in the quarter is mainly attributable to the net proceeds received from the share placement of US$78.2M. This has been partially offset by the repayment of project financing for KM of US$10.0M and LHM of US$11.9M which was postponed from its scheduled repayment date of 30 June 2013 due to the minority sale process.
- Cash Position:
- Cash of US$125.0M at 30 September 2013.
- Successful raising of A$88M/US$80.6M in August 2013 through a private placement to institutional and accredited investors of 125.6M ordinary shares.
- In a period when the uranium price is at an 8 year historic low all options are being reviewed to ensure the Company's sustainability and extend and preserve current cash levels.
- Appointment of Managing Director/General Manager – Langer Heinrich:
- Mr Simon Solomons has been appointed as Managing Director/General Manager of Langer Heinrich Uranium (Pty) Ltd and of the Langer Heinrich Operations, effective 1 January 2014. Simon brings a wealth of mining and operation experience to this role having previously been in charge of the Ranger Uranium Mine in Australia. Simon has been with Paladin since 2008 and prior to this appointment had Group responsibility for technical services including safety, health, environment and radiation. He is very familiar with the operations having been involved in both expansion phases of the mine.
- Exploration and Development:
- Aurora – Michelin Uranium Project, Canada – Work concentrated along a highly prospective east-northeast trending 10km corridor centred on the Michelin deposit (referred to as the Michelin Rainbow Trend). Geologic interpretation was significantly enhanced through mapping, assessment of new magnetic data and core logging. Targets for future drilling were identified west and east of Michelin, especially at the Running Rabbit Lake, Mickey Lake and Rainbow prospects. Drill pads were constructed at both Michelin and Rainbow in preparation for the 2014 winter drilling.
- Guidance FY2014
- Combined production guidance for FY2014 remains at 8.3 to 8.7Mlb U3O8.
- Uranium sales volumes are expected to fluctuate quarter-on-quarter due to the uneven timing of contractual commitments and resultant scheduling by customers. Now that production has reached design levels, sales and production volumes are expected to be comparable on an annualised basis.
- Langer Heinrich Minority Interest Sale
- On 1 August 2013 negotiations were terminated for the sale of a minority interest in the Langer Heinrich Mine after the preferred bidder advised at a late stage that because of the recent weakness in the uranium spot price it wanted to renegotiate the terms, including price, to a level that in the Board's view was unacceptable. The Board determined that the proposed revised terms represented value destruction for Paladin shareholders and that a higher price was required that more appropriately reflected Langer Heinrich's intrinsic and strategic value, particularly given its falling operating costs and long mine-life potential.
- Strong interest from a variety of parties has been received subsequently and the process to sell a minority interest in Langer Heinrich has resumed. Paladin offers a unique platform in the uranium supply sector, generating competition from participants in the nuclear industry for an association with Paladin, both for current production and assured growth in an uncertain medium and long-term supply environment. Paladin will provide an update on the status of negotiations in relation to this transaction by the end of November. Based on bids received during the prior process and initial engagement in the new round, Paladin has reasonable confidence in an outcome which will alleviate shareholder concerns regarding cash flow and debt, noting the next tranche of Convertible Bonds is not due for a further two years until November 2015.
The documents comprising the Financial Report for the three months ended 30 September 2013, including the Management Discussion and Analysis, Financial Statements and Certifications are available here and will be filed with the Company's other documents on Sedar (sedar.com) and on the Company's website (paladinenergy.com.au).

As we grow up most people (me included) connect purpose with an innate ability. Or perhaps life's purpose is a born talent. It was after I made the move of faith I discovered my purpose and calling were two different animals.
You see, God has plans for you. Big plans, grand plans, and plans to do amazing things through you as well in you. Some of you know well what your purpose is. Others of you are still discovering your purpose or wrestling within yourself.
I sense, now I'm touching a nerve and throwing a few zingers out like arrows. Wouldn't it just be dandy if there was a neon sign or billboard in the sky? Or at the very least, a sign of direction to tell you which way to go?
Let's all agree, direction with assurance would make moving into the unknown easier.
The future as we know it can very unclear or confusing. You don't know where to jump if you have lost your way or can't see where you land. You can do what I did. Look up. I'm just being real here. In just a few thoughts, doubt can quickly spiral you into a lonely place, therefore resulting in unbelief. The journey to unfulfillment is short and fast-tracked without hope.
News flash: God is not in the business of instant dreams come true. He is more concerned about our holiness over our happiness. The road to happiness includes a ton of detours; most detours are of our own making. God is more concerned about our becoming holy.
What we forget when we lose our way is the fact of God is always working for us. He is on our side and never has a bad day. He is a good, good Father who looks after our best interest all the time. God's original plan for man was to exhibit the likeness of Jesus. Genesis 1:28 "God blessed them and said to them, 'Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground."
"Be fruitful and multiply" must be layered within our purpose too. As humans, we tend to think we live within roles as males, females, moms, dads, etc. We tend to our family to fill our lives with culture, stuff, possessions and with children. I believe the bigger plan of God is to replicate the nature of God! To exemplify God's very nature in every place we exist and to every life that lives.
God is the same before time began, through all time and will be the same until the end of time! This goes for all His kind intentions as well! Ephesians 5:1-2 "Follow God's example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God." Just as Jesus touched countless lives, we as God's children, are to replicate the Father's heart on the earth. His purpose was to "only do as He saw His Father doing."
What does God do the absolute BEST? He Loves you.
So then, I urge you to do the same. Walk in purpose as dearly loved children and as children dearly in love with God. You see with all this talk about change, purpose, and callings –God's original design of us and our lives has never changed. His original intent was to make us holy and live in the delight of His love originally planned for us. His idea for His created beings is to love, live loved and replicate love. This kind of Love is the holiness that will set you apart from the world.
Look up and let God define His definitive plans for you. Ephesians 4:1-2 "As a prisoner of the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worth the calling you have received. Be completely humble and gentle; be patient and bearing with one another in love."
God is always working FOR the good in your journey unto His holiness! He never forgets the passions or the design he has put inside of you either. God's future for us is FULL of hope and love. Don't discount small beginnings. Remember His purpose for your life is to be fruitful and multiply.
How can you best live your life out according to the love that God has designed for you?

New Homes: Checking in for design inspiration
Mood lighting, bathrooms with plasma-screen televisions upmarket developers are taking their cue from hip hotels, says Liat Joshi
Developers of new homes are responding by taking design cues from the hotel sector. Paul Vallone, operations director for Berkeley Homes, says: "We don't directly copy things but we certainly look to hotels for ideas."
Vallone often stays in boutique hotels, photographing features he likes. Berkeley's newly released Senses development, at London's Chelsea Bridge Wharf, bears the hallmarks of his research. For instance, the lighting systems were introduced after he stayed at St Martins Lane — Vallone was impressed by the facility in his room that changed the colour of the lights to match his mood. Another stock feature of boutique hotels to be found at Senses are plasma televisions beside the baths.
With the retail value of the hydrotherapy tubs at Senses being £6,500…

I dont collect Phonecards. Again its a "preservation" and "conservation" thing. Irish Telecom introduced phonecards around 1988, initially as very functional and plain to be used in telephone kiosks in Ireland. Soon they became colourful and interesting.
There was a set series…in stamp collecting terminology "definitives" and again in stamp collecting terminology "varieties" were noticed.
I first saw these phonecards, carelessly disposed of in phone kiosks in Dublin around 1992. Understandably the nature of stamp collectors is to be interested in small colourful pieces of paper.
I think they also fascinated children who kept an eye on phone booths to get cards and swap them with friends.Most cards which I found were in isolated phone kiosks in rural Ireland. Indeed, much against the advice of my wife, I used to rummage for them in litter bins.
As well as the "definitive" cards, there were cards issued to commemorate events and people. And this of course made them more attractive to stamp collectors. Indeed for a very short period around 1992 to 1995, Phonecards were hailed as the "New Stamps".
Dublin "freesheet advertising" printed wants/swaps/sales lists on a weekly basis. New Collectors outbid each other to get their hands on earlier issues.
But there was a problem.
Many commemorative issues had a very small print run.
Many events had their "own" limited number cards.
This meant that they became instantly collectible and the consequence was inflationary.
Indeed the suspicion grew that the market was being deliberately manipulated with "special events" and "limited issues".
Factor in that some of the commemoratives were merely advertising for concerts, movies and alcohol (the latter being particuarly inappropriate) and this was a radical departure for (say) stamp collectors who saw Irish Stamps as being a reflection of the History, Culture, Folklore, Religion, Spirituality, Mythology, Sport, Music of the Nation.
An Irish Stamp Collection represents the best that Ireland hoyas to offer.
In comparison Irish Phonecards were…venal.
After enthusiastically throwing myself into Phonecard Collecting for maybe three years, I just gave up. I think others did too.
But they are a kinda footnote to mainstream "Irish" collecting…Stamps, Postcards and Coins.
In researching for this post, I came across an "online" dealer. Telecom Ireland do not seem to have issued phonecards after 2003. Changes in the industry itself perhaps.The telecoms industry is now in several "private" hands. Phone kiosks are rare. Everyone seems to have a cell phone and the Internet and Texting and the likes of Twitter have taken over.

1965 Chevrolet

Sometimes people just know how to build a custom pickup right. This 1965 Chevrolet C10 is a great example. There was a lot of thought put into creating the right colors and features so that is always stands out in the crowd.
The first thing you notice about this truck is the paint. The metallic blue is a cool base color, and in an interesting twist, the pieces that are traditionally chrome have been painted for an updated feel. This metallic silver trim looks like a cool street-rod kind of no-nonsense approach until the sunlight hits it. Then the bumpers, grille, and rear roof portion light up with a deeper shine than chrome. There is even some nice style in the stepside body with the wood in the truck bed upgraded to grey Trex style composite decking (EXTREMELY durable) to match the trim. But if it's aggression you like, the Grand Slam kit from Classic Performance Products gives this pickup an intimidating stance, even when it's just standing still. Of course the 20-inch Boss torq-thrust wheels add a lot to this Chevy's attitude too.
The interior does a great job of continuing the exterior's theme. The same electric blue runs across the dash, and is the base for the doors, but then the silver insert is the perfect complement. You'll notice it instantly as you open the door, that the panel matches up nicely against the two-tone cab. The black vinyl bench coordinates with the three-spoke sports steering wheel, and the upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo. New black/gray carpeting ties it all together, and provides extra insulation. The gauge package in front of the driver looks crisp and original to this C10, but there's also a full auxiliary setup in the center, which is a clear indication that there is something special under the hood.
A great Chevy 350 cubic-inch small block is powering this pickup. These motors are ideal because there are so many performance parts available for them, and this one has already been upgraded with an Edelbrock performance air cleaner, carburetor, and intake. This feeds the dual exhaust that has a sweet rumble from the Dynomax mufflers. The near bulletproof TH400 three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and front disc brakes maximize drive-ability. Plus the low profile Sumitomo HTR tires on the lowered performance suspension gives this pickup a downright sporty feeling on the road.
This truck has all the custom touches you love without losing the original spirit. It's a vintage head-turner, with excellent driving capabilities, at a value price. Call today!!

On the lifts, smoke 'em if you've got 'em
November 6, 2007
SNOWMASS Vail and Beaver Creek still hold the distinction of being the only resorts in the state where skiers and riders cannot legally light up on open-air chairlifts.Snowmass Village passed an ordinance Monday night that bans smoking tobacco on most outdoor public land. The new regulation prohibits skiers and riders from smoking while waiting in lift lines or in unloading areas. However, it doesn't target smoking on chairlifts, said lawyer Arnie Mordkin, the councilman who wrote the ordinance.Snowmass Village's town boundaries cover a huge share of the Snowmass ski area, including most of the lower chairlifts. An ordinance banning smoking in all public places could have snuffed smoking on chairlifts.John Wilkinson, a councilman who pushed for passage of the ordinance, said he had hoped to eliminate smoking on chairlifts because of the nuisance and health implications of secondhand smoke.When someone lights up on a chair ahead, "You might as well be sitting right next to them," Wilkinson said.Mordkin said he took a cautious approach with the language in the proposed ordinance because he wanted to create something the council majority would support. The board passed the expansion of the smoking ban by a four-to-one vote. Targeting smoking on chairlifts could have jeopardized the outcome, Mordkin said.Besides, he asked, how could a ban be enforced on chairlifts?Eagle County government in March 2006 passed a "smoke-free' measure that includes a ban on smoking on chairlifts and gondolas. Vail Mountain posted signs along its lift lines and at on-mountain restaurants informing customers about the Eagle County regulation, Vail Mountain communications manager Jen Brown said Tuesday. Beaver Creek follows the same rules. Enforcement falls in the jurisdiction of the Eagle County Sheriff's Office, Brown said.Eagle County deputies focus on educating people about the regulation rather than issuing citations, regardless of the location, said department spokeswoman Kim Andree. She was unaware of deputies issuing tickets, at the ski areas or anywhere else, for smoking in a prohibited place.The Aspen Skiing Co. talked – briefly – about enacting its own ban on smoking on chairlifts last season, but decided against the step, Skico Senior Vice President David Perry said in a recent interview. Enforcement was a major hurdle, he said.Skico tells skiers and riders to refrain from smoking on the gondolas at Aspen Mountain and Snowmass. Smoking was banned at the mountain restaurants even before a state law took effect last year.Perry said complaints about smokers on chairlifts are few and far between. He would like to interpret that to mean smokers mind their manners and light up only when they don't affect other people.Scott Condon's e-mail address is firstname.lastname@example.com.

Life hacks: time management
Written on March 1st, 2017
While I'm by no means a whiz at using all of my time effectively — I watch just as many cute dog videos as the next college student — I do think that I've done a pretty solid job balancing 16+ credit semesters with two jobs and at least a semblance of a social life this past year.
Here are my go-to ways to get everything done… and then some.
Productive Procrastination
I'm not immune to the empty feeling that is a complete and utter lack of motivation. Have you ever been in the middle of a task only to feel that you physically can't continue anymore? This happens frequently in college, especially in the middle of my oh-so-fascinating finance readings.
My strategy in these situations is to stop the task that's exhausted me, but make sure I keep doing something productive. That something could be working ahead in another class, writing articles like the one you're reading right now, re-organizing my resume, refactoring some of my old code, responding to emails, connecting with my roommates, etc., etc.
The idea is that I'm letting myself take a break, but I'm forcing that break to still be productive in its own right.
Now it's true that working a week ahead in one class doesn't make up for falling behind in another – but productive procrastination works well in short bursts. It keeps your work ethic going strong even when you have to step away from a particular task for a little while.
I find that my motivation is actually longer-lived if I don't let myself completely slow down; the key is to keep accomplishing tasks of varying difficulties and interest levels so that your time is balanced.
Dedicated Downtime
Similar to the previous strategy, dedicated downtime is the idea that even my breaks help me move toward my goals in some way. I think it's important to give yourself time to relax — but that relaxation can serve a practical purpose beyond simply being refreshing.
When I have short breaks between classes or am waiting for a meal to cook, I watch web development videos like the ones from Treehouse, instead of pulling up my Netflix account. In the half hour it would take me to watch an episode of Parks and Rec I'm able to increase my familiarity with different programming languages while still having my hands free to eat. It's interesting and relevant to my career aspirations – sounds like a non-zero sum game to me!
Something else I frequently spend my downtime doing is writing (surprise, surprise). Putting words on paper or a screen relaxes me, lulls my brain into a more creative state, and is extremely satisfying when I get to publish the finished product. It feels like a fun release from the stress of school – and it is – but it's also a way to hone a very applicable skill.
In general, I try to focus on the things that I like to do that are also beneficial to my development in some way. Before you think that I don't spend any time actually relaxing, I want to point out two things: 1) I mostly only dedicate my downtime on weekdays, and 2) the activities I consider to be a good use of my free time are diverse.
For example, reading a book for fun is productive downtime in my mind because it benefits not only my literacy but also my state of mind. Drawing or doodling is productive because it relates to the growth of my design eye. Listening to meaningful music is productive because it broadens my worldview, often for much longer than the length of a song.
Just about anything can be considered good, dedicated downtime to me – it's all about making the connection in my mind to some larger long-term goal.
An added perk of spending my relaxation in this way is that I don't feel guilty about giving myself breaks. We're all familiar with the dissonance you feel when you know you need to be productive but just don't have the energy – and dedicating your downtime to things that are both enjoyable and beneficial is the perfect balance.
Priority Planning
I'm a huge scheduling geek. My planner is full to bursting with to-do items, meeting reminders, and just about anything else that I find to be relevant to my day to day life. I've found that writing tasks down is one way to make sure I get them done; the satisfaction of crossing an item off my to-do list is usually motivation enough to get my butt working.
But it isn't just making a list of action items that facilitates my effective time management, although that's definitely the first step – it's being intentional in the way I order those items to create a plan for success.
Every semester I sit down with all of my course syllabi and make one master "grade" sheet. This paper lists all of the components of my grade in each class and ranks them by the percentage of my final score they comprise. It may sound a little over-the-top, but it's extremely helpful when I have 10+ things to do and don't even know where to start; I simply find the item on my grade list that is worth the largest percentage and prioritize it. When I finish that task, I move to the next one, and so on (sporadically incorporating some productive procrastination all the while, of course).
Making to-do lists that rank my tasks from most important to least important allows me to put my workload into perspective. Some nights, if I'm especially exhausted, I'll make it a goal to simply get everything done that's due the next day. Other times I'll work to get as far ahead as possible. I try to listen to my body's cues about how much I can effectively do, and I make action plans that let me get all the necessities done even on the days where I'm gone from my apartment for twelve hours straight.
Finally, I make sure to prioritize non-school related things as well – I set an alarm that tells me to get ready for bed every night at 11:00 pm, and I wake up at 7:00 each morning to fit a few hours of web development in before class. Scheduling these activities like sleep and career development that might normally fall by the wayside helps me stay on a consistent schedule, and it reminds me of an important truth I seek to internalize every day: school is important, but it does not define everything I am.
Respond to Reflection
Finally, the biggest way I stay on track with effective time management is by evaluating how my schedule is working and then responding to that reflection with action. If I'm feeling burnt out I'll make it a point to prioritize more downtime. If I'm stressed because I keep cutting it close to deadlines I'll prioritize working ahead. I try to adjust as much as possible to the indicators of my body and environment.
A prime example of this was just a few weeks ago when I switched from exercising in the morning before class to doing it in the evenings. Waking up has always been hard for me, and I realized that I was much more likely to stay in bed procrastinating (and doing nothing but scrolling through my phone) if I knew that once I got up I'd have to exercise.
On the other hand, if I knew I could wake up and do something sedentary to gradually get myself ready for the day, I'd spend a lot less time laying in bed and a lot more time actually working. This realization led me to plan a few hours of web development each morning directly after waking up and to spend my heightened evening energy on a good workout later in the day. (Added perk: a hot shower before bed does wonders for my sleep).
This simple schedule change has drastically improved my productivity – I used to waste so much time in the mornings, but now I find that I'm using every minute more effectively. All it took was listening to my body and being willing to adjust to its response.
All in all, I'm still trying to "hack" my life to be more productive in every way that I can – and boy, do I still fall short sometimes! These strategies have done wonders over the past months, but I know I have a long ways to go before I really feel like a time management professional. My life is a work in progress, and I can only hope I'll be better at it tomorrow than I am today.

One area of coloring books that I have had little experience with is Japanese anime or general comic-style art. However, I was kindly given a copy of Glenn Song's Lolita Fashion coloring book, and I am simply enthralled by this book! This book is part of a very unique genre, and I am fascinated!
Lolita fashion in itself is a Japanese style of fashion loosely based on Victorian and Edwardian clothing and typically includes baby-doll style dresses with lots of frills, bows, and lace. Glenn Song borrowed this fashion style to create a character for his webcomic, This Mortal Coil, and the character's name is Kamiko. In Glenn's Lolita Fashion coloring book, you get to see Kamiko wearing some fantastically amazing dresses, adorned with everything from cupcakes to rifles!
One of the most fun and certainly unique things about this book is when you flip through the pages quickly enough, you actually can watch Kamiko spin all the way around with her wondrous dresses! I have never seen another coloring book with this type of added bit of fun to it, and I hope that when Mr. Song creates another coloring book, he'll use this same element of surprise!
The book itself is a standard self-published paperback with images printed single-sided on 60 lb. paper pages. The cover shows Kamiko in several of her dresses and accessories. The illustrations are very neat with clean lines. The book is certainly family-friendly and would be great fun for colorists of any age or skill level!
Knowing that this book was based on a certain character of a webcomic, I simply had to check out the webcomic itself, which is located at www.mortalcoilcomic.com. I was surprised to see that there are chapters to the webcomic dating back to 2013, with other comics back to 2012. Clearly, Glenn Song is a greatly talented artist who shares his talents in all sorts of ways.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys coloring fashion or comics, including children. As mentioned previously, this coloring book would be suitable for people of all ages and skill levels, and I think everyone would really enjoy the extra treat of the "flip through" bonus that Mr. Song has provided!
You can learn more about Glenn Song and his art by visiting his website, www.mortalcoilcomic.com, or his Facebook page, www.facebook.com/thismortalcoilcomic.

Are these the shoes that Carrie was wearing when she showed her leg to get a cab to the airport? If so where can I get them? If not what and where can I get the ones she was wearing.

The former USA president Barack Obama has declared 153 commutations and 78 pardons as per his clemency power some in context of pre Christmas. There is almost a month left for Obama in the office and he has granted double pardons this year than he has done in his last seven years.
The president continues to use his left over days of clemency power. He has commuted 1176 sentences of the federal prisoners, which were long and compulsory drug sentences that were pending since the last 30 years.
However, the time of clemency powers is running from the hands of the president in the Pardon attorney office. Till 30th November, about 12943 applications and 1937 petitions of commutation were pending. Michael Collins from Dug Policy Associated has said that they need to speed up the process of commutations and complete them before the president leaves the office. He even added that the president needs to be appreciated for whatever he is doing as everyone knows that the new president who is going to enter White House seems to have no sympathy for mass incarceration and for the ones who are into unfair sentences.
Obama started the clemency program in the year 2014 in order to cut short the sentence terms of the prisoners who have been in the prison and given harsh sentences. Obama till now has granted a lot of clemencies and he wishes to complete the task before he is replaced in the office by Trump.
