text: Program Overview The mission of the post-professional Occupational Therapy Doctorate (OTD) program is to enable occupational therapists in any practice area to develop roles and skills beyond that of the therapist-clinician. Our program supports their development toward practitioner-scholars who can translate knowledge, including cross-disciplinary theories and research, into practice, and who are capable of serving as change agents in new and expanded arenas within the field of occupational therapy. The post-professional OTD curriculum is designed to prepare practicing occupational therapists to become advanced practitioners capable of serving as evidence-based leaders. The capstone component is an integral part of the program. It is designed to develop occupational therapists with advanced knowledge/skills in one of the following eight areas: clinical practice, research skills, administration, leadership, program and policy development, advocacy, education, or theory development. With a keen understanding of the responsibilities of the practicing occupational therapist that holds a master's degree, this mission is accomplished by offering a two-year, part-time online program. It combines web-based instruction with a onetime campus visit to present Capstone to faculty and students. Our program is unique in that post-professional OTD students have an opportunity to interact with both MSOT students at the Erie, PA campus and entry-level OTD students at the Ruskin, FL campus.

I thought I would bring a copy of the OTPF and the WHO document we received in our first semester course. A lot of time was spent presenting the hospital's current statistics on finances, programs and challenges. Then a speaker with a PhD from Harvard presented trends and challenges in healthcare. So much of the information presented was familiar to me from the OTD program. Leading health indicators, population health, and health disparities were discussed. Local data was presented on the quickly growing segment of people over the age of 65, the high poverty rate, educational disparities, and how all of this impacts the future of value-based healthcare. I have to say that I was already aware of the language, and the local statistics due to a project I worked on in my second semester on Meals on Wheels of WNY. Additionally, the Affordable Care Act was discussed at a very basic level, and I felt like I already had a baseline level of knowledge about that information too. It is not that I needed to know this information, but I felt so much better informed. A year ago, this would have all been foreign to me. I was on the edge of my seat thinking about the big picture and a year ago I would have been more likely trying to understand the individual statistics, concepts and what they represent. It was another personal fulfilling moment in my educational journey." Marie Johnson, OTR Course DescriptionsDOCCT 844: Community Based InterventionsThis course provides therapeutic intervention via programming development, with concentration on community-based practice and populations. There is a special emphasis on the needs of the elderly, health/wellness programs, the homeless, and the child and youth populations, home care programming and interventions, and community partner identification, development, and relationship cultivation.

The Hush Post | 8:26 pm | One-minute read |
A passenger plane with 136 people on board ended up landing in a river in after landing during a thunderstorm. The incident occurred in the US state of Florida on Friday night. There are no reports of fatalities but 21 people were taken to hospital with minor injuries.
"No fatalities reported. We are all in this together," Jacksonville Mayor Lenny Curry wrote on Twitter after the incident.
The Boeing 737 commercial jet is operated by Miami Air International. It had flown from Guantanamo Bay in Cuba to a military base in the city of Jacksonville.
As the plane was about to land in Jacksonville, it landed heavily in the storm, skidding into St John's River.
The passengers and the crew members were evacuated via the Boeing's wings.
Passengers described the moment as "terrifying". One of them, Cheryl Bormann, told CNN, "The plane literally hit the ground and bounced – it was clear the pilot did not have total control of the plane, it bounced again."
"We were in the water. We couldn't tell where we were, whether it was a river or an ocean," said another.

Upper air soundings during POLARSTERN cruise ANT-XXIX/1
2019-11-23T13:15:02Z (GMT) by
The upper air soundings are normally performed once a day to measure vertical profiles of air pressure, temperature, relative humidity and the wind vector. Helium filled balloons (TOTEX 600 g, 800 g) were used to carry Vaisala RS92-SGPW radiosondes. Whenever possible, the launches were performed about 10 UTC. Condensed measurements (TEMP Format FM-35) were transferred without delay into the Global Telecommunication System GTS were they contribute for the world wide weather forecasts. The profile data were taken every 5-10 seconds which result in a vertical profile resolution of about 25-50 meter. The profiles start at the helideck 10 m above sea level and terminate at the burst level of the balloons, normally at heights between 25 and 37 km.

I'm not ashamed to say I eat this with a spoon…
Our family loved blue cheese. We ate it on crackers, in things, on other things, all alone, crumbled in salads and also as a dressing. Blue Cheese!
My grandmother, Honey, loved it so much she had a big wheel of Stilton delivered every year during the Christmas holidays. It sat on her butcher block in the middle of the kitchen in a round wooden crock and you could dip in whenever you wanted. (It didn't last long.)
I love blue cheese so much I love even intense blue cheeses. The first time I ever tried a cheese cart/course at a restaurant was at Gramercy Tavern in NYC, one of the best and most beautiful restaurants ever. I was on a date and we decided to go for the cheese course between the main course and dessert. The waitress, who was amazing, rolled the cart to the table and went through twenty-three different cheeses! Describing where they came from, what they were like, etc etc. I was in awe. Not only by what all she knew, which changed daily, but having waited tables ten years myself, I can't imagine having to take that much time with a table, particularly on a busy Saturday night when in the weeds. Stress. Anyway… she described the cheeses from soft and lush to intense. The last cheese was a blue cheese that actually had mold on it. She said it was "only for people who love blue cheese and then maybe not." I of course had to try. It may have had mold on it but was so incredible like young Oliver I asked for more.
I'm not saying you need to use moldy blue cheese for this dressing! (Hey, it's just penicillin, right?) But if you like blue cheese of any kind, this is the dressing for you. I've played with it for years and perfected it to what I love. So I give you my dressing, as well as my favorite salad with the dressing.

Comment on The Metamorphosis of La Sierra University: an eye-witness account by Ron Stone M.D..
@Bill Sorensen:
ALL who reject God as Creator of the literal six-day creation week will eventually reject the seventh-day sabbath as the day to worship our Creator. It is Satan's clever plan to get humans to accept his spurious day of worship, thereby deceiving millions.
JG, I agree with you 100% However, if you've ever listened to secular liberal SDA's, they have a rationale for everything, including why one can believe in Darwinian evolution and still believe that God "made" the Sabbath Day.
One of their rationales is that all that Genesis stuff is just "allegory." Just a "fairy tale" story to illustrate a "principle" and not actually reality. "Adam" is just mankind in general. "Days" are just long periods of time. "Satan" is just your evil imagination.
Evidently, Jesus and all the rest of the biblical characters were fooled and confused because they seem to believe Genesis was real!
Ron Stone M.D. Also Commented
The Metamorphosis of La Sierra University: an eye-witness account
I was a graduate student in biology at LLU in the 70′s.All of the faculty and students there at that time were 7- day creationists.I am sure of this. I didn't know all the biology faculty at LSU at that time, but I never heard any other kind of beliefs from any I knew there either.
Lance, I graduated from LLUMS in 1977. I never, in my whole training as a physician, remember anything being said about how evolution formed our cells, tissues, organs, etc. I spent 5 years in post-graduate medical education, and nobody mentioned it there either.
I took and passed numerous national board exams, without seeing a single question on evolution. I even passed the Internal Medicine Boards, and found no questions on how evolution affected health, disease, or anything else.
The Metamorphosis of La Sierra University: an eye-witness account
The reason for understanding the evolutionary theory is for the sake of the evolutionist whom we love and seek to help. The most convincing scientific arguments for Creation are from individuals who have taken the time to listen and know the arguments of for evolution. 'Know your enemy.' It prepares you to meet the errors intelligently and objectively.
Linda, I totally agree with you. The best way to counter the religion of evolution is to actually study the basic tenets and evaluate the actual empiric scientific evidence they are based on. What you will find is hypotheses, speculation, and theories built on faithful adherence to the secular humanistic "religion" of materialism.
If you ask the evolutionists themselves, they will admit this! Do I need to quote?
The Metamorphosis of La Sierra University: an eye-witness account
The idea that to be educated one must be aware and versant in evolution theory is a faulty idea.We are to be naive concerning evil and wise concerning good. Truth can alway afford to be open to view and doesn't need "help†by those who have educated themselves in alternative views.
This issue is not debatable in the usual sense.Both sides are religious beliefs. One must choose which one is their belief.Actually, we don't choose what we believe—we reveal who we believe.
@ Bill Cowin, You're entirely correct that Darwinian evolution IS a religious idea (world view perspective)as deeply held as any other religion might be. It is part of Secular Humanism, which has a "Manifesto" (creed) of beliefs which anyone can read. One of its major tenets is "evolution!"
I disagree, however, that it is not valuable to understand humanistic philosophies, but not to debate or defend them, but to understand the major weaknesses of them, of which Darwinian evolution has many.
Recent Comments by Ron Stone M.D.
My Goal for La Sierra University
The reason the LaSierra situation has gone uncorrected so long is that most of our administrators have exactly the sort of political instincts that Dan Jackson has. They are politicians and consensus builders; they want to keep the peace and make the trains run on time. But the circumstances call for men of principle, hard men who are willing to stand for the right "though the heavens fall,†i.e., regardless who is offended and loudly complains.
Dave, I agree with you. Jackson's trying to play on "both teams" is not going to go well for him.
Unfortunately, politics is the "SOP" of many of our SDA officials, Jackson being just one. "Political instincts" are the rule, instead of actually doing what is "right" according to what we know in God's Word.
Bradley, Beach and Kaatz retain attorney
Shane Hilde: Think big fish: LSU or the Seventh-day Adventist Church.Graham might not have followed procedure with these men, but I don't know what the procedure is. I've read what the process is in the faculty handbook, but I don't know if that applies to administrative positions which are at will employees. If it does apply to them, then it appears the process was not followed.
Trustees book says, in 6,9,F, that the Trustes may "discontinue" virtually anyone working at the university.
Does that mean to "fire" or to "force their resignation? Seems like it does.
My Goal for La Sierra University
GMF: If what has been reported about Jackson is correct it is very troubling. Also, one can only wonder why he was selected as the NAD President.I've seen a thing or two which made me wonder about Jackson but this report, if true, has to be the worst. May the Good Lord help us!
Jackson was selected to replace Don Schneider, who was also very "passive" in his approach to this problem.
Besides telling Wisbey to "love Jesus" Jackson did virtually nothing.
My Goal for La Sierra University
Sean, Great summary and analysis of the current situation. Another good review of this matter is in the Jan-March 2011 Elders Journal. It also goes into the 2004 evaluation and recommendations, as you have quoted.
Bradley, Beach and Kaatz retain attorney
How about a "class action" suit against anyone and everyone who has heard the tape or has heard OF the tape?

case and giving solution of it. Identification of traffic cases use weaving, capacity and free flow
velocity the street that was already identified. These analysis use to show connection one of part
betwwen two movement of trafficjam that converging the compare it with planned velocity in city.
The results of study show that weaving, capacity and free flow velocity compare with planned
velocity it makes decreasing of velocity on a street that was identified. Therefore, indisciplineon
traffic needs a setting of row of traffic, such as a set of street row and rules of traffic from
stakeholder in this case.

As is the case each and every season, each and every week, any omission below is not on purpose, it's merely intentional.
Shaky title defense begins
Last year, Florida State rolled over, through and around its regular season opponents by an average score of 53-10, with their "closest" call being a 48-34 win over Boston College on the road in Week 5. They did not score less than 41 points in any game, and allowed more than 17 points just once. Based on the opener, the Seminoles won't be steamrolling through its 2014 slate. At first it looked as if it would be lather, rinse and repeat as the Seminoles jumped out to a 17-0 lead midway through the second quarter. Then reigning Heisman winner Jameis Winston began misfiring — two interceptions, just over 60-percent completion percentage — and the Cowboys outscored the 'Noles 31-20 the rest of the way. It wasn't enough to dig out of that big early hole, however, as FSU extended its winning streak to a nation's best 17 straight while Winston threw for 370 yards on an "off" night. It did, though, offer some teachable moments for a coach looking to ensure his team doesn't suffer through a post-title malaise as the 'Noles go from being the hunter to the hunted.

Marcus Mariota has already been recognized as one of the best, if not the best, quarterbacks in Oregon history. Now, the record books officially backup that stance. In the Ducks' season-opening romp over South Dakota, Mariota passed for 267 yards and three touchdowns, running for one other score — and setting or tying two school career standards and getting closer to a third in the process. Mariota now has 82 career touchdowns (66 passing, 15 rushing, one receiving), breaking the tie he had been in with Joey Harrington. He's also now tied with Darron Thomas for career passing touchdowns (66) and is within 22 yards (8,140 to 8,119) of breaking Bill Musgrave's record for total offense. Suffice to say, Mariota, one of the preseason Heisman favorites, will break both those latter marks at some point during the Ducks' highly-anticipated showdown with Michigan State next Saturday.
This one's for you, bro
Early last November, Carl Pelini "resigned" as FAU's head coach amidst drug allegations that were later recanted. Nine months later, Pelini's younger brother gave birth to a little bit of payback. Saturday in Lincoln, Bo Pelini's Nebraska Cornhuskers pummeled FAU by the score of 55-7. NU totaled a Big Ten-record 779 yards of offense — the most for the 'Huskers since 1991 — and included 493 on the ground. Ameer Abdullah ran for 227 of those yards, a career-high performance, while Tommie Armstrong passed for a personal-best 271 yards. It won't get the elder Pelini his job back with the Owls, but his former team's evisceration could provide him with a little satisfaction.

Yes, it does.
Dateline 2012-05-04:
Subsidised gas and the inflated demand it encouraged are some of the factors that led to the severe gas shortage faced by Tenaga Nasional Bhd (TNB), said International Gas Union (IGU) president Datuk Abdul Rahim Hashim.
"We started the subsidies after the Asian financial crisis, and we should not have continued doing that. We should have weaned ourselves off it and gone back to market prices after the economy picked up again.
"We have a system whereby one end is fixed (electricity tariffs), and generators are looking for the cheapest source of fuel. Gas is the cheapest of the lot, and since generators tend to use the cheapest resource available, that has pushed the system to the limit," he told StarBiz in an interview.

Crash Preventability Demonstration Program
On July 12, 2016, FMCSA proposed a crash preventability demonstration program. Based on the feedback received in response to the Federal Register notice, FMCSA announces the initiation of a crash preventability demonstration program in which the Agency would accept requests for data review (RDRs) to evaluate the preventability of certain categories of crashes through its national data correction system known as DataQs. This notice describes the crash types that will qualify for the demonstration program, the process for submitting RDRs to evaluate the preventability of a crash, how decisions on preventability will be displayed in Agency systems, and the data to be collected through this program for use in future decisions about a longer-term crash preventability program.

Black Cat OD-Fuzz Hybrid
The Black Cat OD-Fuzz is a versatile, two-channel distortion/fuzz box that combines the Black Cat OD-1 with a traditional Fuzz Face in one pedal. Each channel of the OD-Fuzz has its own set of controls with separate LEDs for each side. The two channels can be used separately or together in combination. Each effect has its own distinct sound, but the blend of both channels together will yield an incredibly wide range of tonal possibilities, from slightly overdriven to full-blown fuzz. The controls become highly interactive when both effects are engaged.
The Black Cat OD-Fuzz is also available in Germanium and Silicon fuzz variations: The OD-Fuzz Hybrid is essentially the same as the standard Black Cat OD-Fuzz, except it uses a combination of Germanium and Silicon transistors in the fuzz circuit. This gives you the earthy warmth of Germanium and the sizzle of Silicon together in one fuzz. The Hybrid Fuzz channel also blends incredibly well with the OD channel.

Advantages of Cryptocurrency Trading
Cryptocurrency trading is comparable to foreign exchange, but this form of currency is digital. When you want to start cryptocurrency trading you should acquire a cryptocurrency wallet together with an exchange you can trade on. In spite of the many people losing money in this business, many people still invest, hoping for success stories. In spite of the challenges, there are many benefits that are outlined below.
One benefit of cryptocurrency trading is that it cannot be counterfeited or be reversed. The absence of counterfeit currency will eliminate problems encountered by the government such as inflation. Consequences resulting from money being counterfeited can be a blow. The effects are felt by the person affected by the counterfeit money and the economy of the country. Using cryptocurrency can remedy the problems resulting from counterfeiting money.
There are reduced case of theft when using cryptocurrency for your transactions. Owners of the currency have a system that allows them to pay merchants directly and conveniently. Unlike the conventional exchange systems, giving credit cards to a merchant allows access your credit line even when the transaction you wish to make is very small Cryptocurrency trading eliminates this kind of inconvenience and vulnerability.
There is ease of accessibility to these digital currencies when one can get access to the internet. It is likely to be used by the billions of users who currently access the internet. The kind of convenience it offers to its users could be a reason many people will like to use digital currency in the future. Use of this kind of trading is preferable because the traditional forms of exchange are exposed to more risk and have time-consuming processes. The system in the country launched a cryptocurrency device, while one in three people have access to the internet own a wallet.
Transactions in cryptocurrency trading require less fees. The subsidiary is largely due to the miners getting compensation by the networks. One factor that might raise the charges incurred during transactions is involvement of third parties in the management of a cryptocurrency account. Use of conventional money exchanges comes with the consequence of high rates of exchange, risks of fraud and less conveniences compared to use of the digital currency.
During purchase of real property, you can do an immediate settlement with your cryptocurrency. You can exempt any third parties in you process. When transactions are settled faster, it saves on time and cost. There is more success and convenience in the use of the digital currency compared to the disadvantages it has.

Move-Up Buyer Advantages
Posted on September 23rd, 2019 by
What is the biggest opportunity in the Fresno/Clovis housing market right now! It is the move-up buyer! Hi I'm John Stone with The Stones Real Estate Team at Guarantee Real Estate.
Why does the move-up buyer have an advantage when they sell and buy?
It is simple supply and demand. There are many more buyers than homes for sale under $350,000… and many more homes than buyers for homes over $450,000. To put that into perspective from an inventory standpoint, there is less than 2-months-supply of inventory for homes under $350… and there is 5-to-8-months-supply of inventory for homes over $450.
The move-up seller has the opportunity to get top-dollar when they sell, and negotiate a great deal when they buy! So… for the first time in a long time the move-up buyer has an advantage when they sell… And buy!
If you're considering moving up to the home of your dreams… this is the perfect time to do so!

Winter is coming in the Western Hemisphere! You may need one of these. Or two. Or five.
I will begin with an apology. Those of you who are disappointed at the lack of a real winter can blame me. It's my fault. I realized this evening that my daughter and I had not yet made this year's rice socks. Winter has been holding back on us because Mother Nature knew we weren't ready. Well, we're ready now. So bring it. Bring. It.
If you're doing a snow dance, also, you must make a rice sock, too. They're just the thing to keep you toasty when the white stuff starts to fall. I apologize for the quality of the photos. My camera is misbehaving.

ESPN columnist, sideline reporter J.A. Adande hopes to provide unique experience for Medill students
August 23, 2016
J.A. Adande came to Northwestern University in 1989 as an undergraduate student for its proximity to a big city, collegiate-looking campus and the best journalism education in the country.
"I wanted squirrels — and Northwestern had them," Adande said. "It was the best decision I've made in my life."
24 years after graduating with a journalism degree, Adande is returning to NU this fall to lead Medill's sports media specialization program, a focus initiative of the new specializations at the master's level, Medill dean Bradley Hamm said.
"We have amazing alumni throughout the United States in sports journalism," Hamm said. "I've been able to talk with J.A. for several years about different things we're doing at the school and as we started working on this, he seemed like an ideal person to run the program."
Adande said his main goal is recruiting the best students and faculty to the program so they can put together the best sports journalism curriculum in the country.
"With the great resources and alumni network that we have, we can really put together a unique experience for the students that will best prepare them to be in the changing modern journalism world," Adande said.
Adande's first job out of NU was at the Chicago-Sun Times, where he covered college football and basketball around the Big Ten as well as the Chicago Bulls. He then went to the Washington Post, covering Georgetown University during Allen Iverson's time there and the Washington Bullets, now known as the Washington Wizards. In 1997, Adande returned to his home state of California to write for the Los Angeles Times. He stayed there ten years before beginning to work for ESPN in 2007 as a columnist and sideline reporter.
In addition to running the sports media program, Adande will also be a professor at Medill. Though Adande's course schedule has not been finalized, Hamm said he will most likely be teaching both graduate and undergraduate courses every year.
"The journalism that I learned in Medill in the 80s and 90s — the core of it applies, but the methods are very different now," Adande said. "We will be adamant about the journalistic principles that have always been stressed at Medill, but will update it and make sure that our students are well versed in the modern means of communication and disseminating stories."
While at NU, Adande said he spent his time in class, working at SPAC and writing for The Daily, where he served as sports editor.
Medill prof. John Kupetz taught an introductory reporting and writing class that Adande took in the late 80s — pre-internet, he said, where students covered lead writing, briefing, obituaries and other basics. Adande remembers Kupetz best for his green pen he used for edits instead of a red pen. Kupetz described him as a "superb" student.
"Back then, I remember telling him that besides being a good reporter at The Daily Northwestern, that I thought he had such an incredible voice," Kupetz said. "The voice that he has now at ESPN — he had that when he was a sophomore. A really clear, deep voice."
Kupetz said that Adande brings to broadcast what old-fashioned broadcasters like Walter Cronkite bring, in that after spending a great part of his career doing print journalism, he says it has made him an exceptional writer and reporter that sets him apart at ESPN from the others.
"(Adande) is like a lot of the sports reporters that came out of The Daily Northwestern who were really great and are more interested in the story than having a glib personality," Kupetz said. "Medill is getting a great addition to their faculty and I don't think you could find a better person or journalist than J. for what he does."
Reflecting on some his most memorable experiences as a sports journalist, Adande listed several moments he was present for, naming players like John Paxson, Muhammad Ali and Stephen Curry. He hopes to provide Medill students with the same opportunities.
"That's one thing about sports — you're never done producing unprecedented moments," Adande said. "There's always going to be something better or more remarkable, and I want to help students get the chance to experience that, to cover that and share it with the audience the same way that I had the opportunity to do."

Pass Go and Collect $200 is fun, relatable social history for Monopoly fans and anyone who ever had a great idea. Ages 6-up
Pass Go and Collect $200: the Real Story of How Monopoly Was Invented by Tanya Lee Stone, Illustrated by Steven Salerno. Henry Holt, 2018, 40 pages.
Reading Level: Middle Grades, ages 8-10
Recommended for: ages 6-up
"What kind of Monopoly player are YOU?" Almost everyone from the age of 8 to 80 has played the game at one time or another–and that has been the case ever since the 1930s. Its origins are as complex as the game itself, beginning with the financial crises of the late 19th century and a pioneering woman named Lizzie Magie. Lizzie was an opponent of rapacious landlords who used their wealth to buy up desirable properties and charge outrageous rent. Her "Landlord" game featured two sets of rules: one for ruthless competitors and the other showing "a fairer way to play, which had people sharing money when it was earned . . . Lizzie hoped kids would see just how unfair the first set of rules was and grow up to play by the second set in life." Perhaps they did, but ruthless competition made for a more dynamic game.
Lizzie patented "Landlord" and tried to sell it to the three Parker Brothers. They were intrigued but thought it would never catch on. The game passed into the public domain, collecting fans and improvements, but it took a busted entrepreneur named Charles Darrow to make "Monopoly" a nationwide hit. Meanwhile, what about Lizzie Magie?
The author drops a few hints about her sympathies but gives all the major players a fair shake. Clever illustrations that incorporate elements of the game (like Chance cards and player tokens) add to the enjoyment of learning some social history and basic economics. The narrative ends with historical trivia and a page of math word problems based on Monopoly finance. Monopoly is a cutthroat game, but the book is good-natured fun.
Cautions: None
Overall Rating: 4.25 (out of 5)

They say you are what you eat. If that's the case, then in the summer months we are villagers. When garden tomatoes have ripened, we use them to make, and eat, delicious Greek salad, also called a horiatiki salata (horio means village in Greek). We eat this salad every day. Not almost every day…but every, single, day. And we never tire of it.
It would be next to impossible to tire of a salad so full of flavour and amazing texture. For us, Greek salad or horiatiki salata is a gift of summer; easy to prepare, filling, deliciously fragrant and healthy. In fact, the only down side is that we live in a country where local, vine-ripened tomatoes are not readily available year round.

You Can't Have Lenovo's Gorgeous New Flagship Phone
...or its wearable, or any of its other mobile devices.
Recommendations are independently chosen by Reviewed's editors. Purchases you make through our links may earn us a commission.
Lenovo today announced new premium smartphones and smartphone accessories aimed at the high-end market. Unfortunately, none of the announced products is slated for U.S. availability.
Leading the pack is the Lenovo Vibe X2 Pro, the company's premium smartphone option for 2015. The flagship Android device inherits the Vibe X2's unique, layered look and full-metal body, which comes in a wide range of eye-catching colors.
In addition to a 5.3-inch full-HD screen, the X2 Pro features 13-megapixel front and rear cameras, a 64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon octa-core processor, and the Android 4.4 (KitKat) mobile OS. It'll be available by April with a suggested price of $499, though it won't be offered in the U.S.
Alongside the Vibe X2 Pro, Lenovo has announced the Vibe Band VB10—its latest foray into the booming wearables market.
Eschewing Android Wear, the Vibe Band runs a proprietary OS that powers a tall, skinny E Ink screen. The monochrome display's low power draw means the VB10 can eke out a full 24 hours of use with the screen constantly on, or up to 7 days under more intermittent use.
The VB10 can eke out 24 hours of use with the screen constantly on.In addition to displaying notifications, refusing calls, and letting you know when you've strayed too far from your phone, the waterproof VB10 will also track your fitness stats. It'll be available in April in your choice of black, white, and champagne finishes, with a suggested price of $89. Sadly, it won't be hitting the U.S. any time soon.
A bit further down the smartphone pecking order comes the P90, a mid-level option that wraps an Intel quad-core processor, dual 13-megapixel cameras, and a 5.5-inch IPS screen in either pearl white, onyx black, or lava red plastic. The P90 will be available in February for $369, though once again Lenovo doesn't expect to bring it to the U.S. market.
For all you Instagram fiends, Lenovo also announced a potentially groan-inducing accessory: the Vibe Xtension Selfie Flash.
This ring of eight LED bulbs plugs into your smartphone's headphone jack and synchronizes with the phoen camera shutter to light up your selfies in dimmer conditions. It'll be available in April for $29, but you know the drill—no U.S. availability.

Sypnopsis from Goodreads:Lucy's learned some important lessons from tabloid darling Jayla Heart's all-too-public blunders: Avoid the spotlight, don't feed the Internet trolls, and keep your secrets secret. The policy has served Lucy well all through high school, so when her best friend Ellie gets sick before prom and begs her to step in as Cole's date, she accepts with a smile, silencing about ten different reservations. Like the one where she'd rather stay home shredding online zombies. And the one where she hates playing dress-up. And especially the one where she's been secretly in love with Cole since the dawn of time.
When Cole surprises her at the after party with a kiss under the stars, it's everything Lucy has ever dreamed of… and the biggest BFF deal-breaker ever. Despite Cole's lingering sweetness, Lucy knows they'll have to 'fess up to Ellie. But before they get the chance, Lucy's own Facebook profile mysteriously explodes with compromising pics of her and Cole, along with tons of other students' party indiscretions. Tagged. Liked. And furiously viral.
By Monday morning, Lucy's been branded a slut, a backstabber, and a narc, mired in a tabloid-worthy scandal just weeks before graduation.
Lucy's been battling undead masses online long enough to know there's only one way to survive a disaster of this magnitude: Stand up and fight. Game plan? Uncover and expose the Facebook hacker, win back her best friend's trust, and graduate with a clean slate.
There's just one snag—Cole. Turns out Lucy's not the only one who's been harboring unrequited love…
My Non-Spoiler thoughts
The book honestly started off weak. It was very hard for me to stay focused into the story. I found the main character to be a little hard to like at times. Then the story started to pick up as the need to no more came into affect.
What I liked:
I liked the deeper meaning in this story. It isn't blatantly obvious, but I found it to be a quite educating read on the dangers of social media. You can see the effects that posting hate about others can cause, and how easy a picture/status can spread.
There is also the struggle of being famous thrown in. It isn't a part of the bigger story, but you learn about the struggles our main character's older sister has to face everyday; like the harassment from the paparazzi and the untrue magazines.
This books makes you rethink how you view social media and the people on magazines.
What I didn't like:
Marceau, I did not like how he was portrayed. The author made him seem like a complete ditz and that he didn't understand USA culture, and then she said he was french Canadian. I don't think the author knows of many French Canadians because they are anything but unbeknownst to the US culture. In Canada the US culture is basically thrown in our face, they may not know much about us, but we are stuck knowing many details about them. The French Canadians aren't anything like Marceau.
I also found Griff to be a little unpolished. The way she would act (particular in the middle) did not fit with her overall character (especially with the ending).
Lastly, Miss Demeanor has nothing on Gossip Girl.

Happy Valentine's.
There are some people who meet that somebody that they can never stop loving, no matter how hard they try. I wouldn't expect you to understand that, or even believe it, but trust me, there are some loves that don't go away. And maybe that makes them crazy, but we should all be lucky enough to end up with somebody who has a little of that insanity.
Someone who never lets go. Someone who cherishes you forever.

I understand where they are coming from with the whole wrapping of the gifts piece, not my strength and never will be, I have accepted this reality of mine and my sisters have driven home the point many times. Understandably, the holidays can be a stressful time. For this reason I want to provide you with a small piece of advice while taking on one aspect of the holidays, gift giving.
How the hell are you supposed to know exactly what to get your wife, children, significant other, or any family member for that matter when they either provide you with a "60 item list" or say "it's the thought that counts". Either scenario leaves you in a precarious spot of wondering, stressing, and wishing someone else could do this for you. Fear not though!
I am hear to give you some advice on how to make gift giving a little easier for you this holiday.
Here are a couple rules to follow (some from personal experience and others just rules)
1. Put effort into your card and wrapping.
This point is even more true when gifting for females. They care just as much about what's in the card and the efforts put into wrapping as they do the present. Stay honest and genuine with your words.
2. Stay within your means.
Listen, I understand you may be a "people pleaser" or the whole nature of the holidays has put you in a generous mood, but set a budget and stay to it. Sometimes this can be a fun challenge for a couple. My wife and I for the holidays cap it off at $100, which for some may be a lot and for others not, but regardless it forces you to get creative while keeping that urge to overspend in check.
3. Gifts aren't everything.
Believe it or not your material things that you own (house, car, electronics..etc) can only account for 10% of your happiness. The other 90% is how you react to these things. People, including you, place the meaning in the gifts, the words you share in your card, and the time you choose to spend with loved ones. Choose wisely, communicate genuinely, and stay in the moment.
Well, you may still be stressed moving forward into the holiday, but before giving up on it, try at least one of the pieces of advice out for size. Works for me, and for many other people. Join the population of individuals that actually look forward to this season of giving and drown out (at least temporarily) your inner Scrooge.
