Helping people who are experiencing homelessness is not just about reducing the costs to our community, or protecting how Tulsa looks to visitors and prospective businesses. It is the right thing to do, and IT'S SOMETHING WE CAN ACCOMPLISH TOGETHER.
It takes a collective effort to fight problems as complex and difficult as homelessness. Through our businesscommunity, nonprofit agencies, faith-based organizations, volunteer base, and many others, Tulsa is coming together to work on solutions that are effective, humane and life-changing for the many thousands of Oklahomans currently facing homelessness.
17 Ways you & your company can help end homelessness!
Theoretically, many Americans are only one paycheck away from living on the street. As all of us know, America's economy has had its ups and downs in recent years. The great recession created new challenges, including increasing numbers of individuals and families experiencing poverty and homelessness.
And sometimes it takes one health diagnosis (and the bills that follow) to force someone out of his home. It's a scary thought.
It's also a scary thought that a healthy, active teenager could be diagnosed with a severe mental illness in her early 20s, be unable to find the right treatment, and ultimately turn to the streets and self-medication. Or what about the veteran who has served our country and returns with untreated post-traumatic stress disorder? Or the youth turned out of the home for being transgender? Or the woman who escapes her abusive spouse with only her children and one small bag of clothes?
There are many reasons someone may experience homelessness – whether it is "couch-surfing" for one night or living on the streets for 20 years. But the fact is, many people – even if we sympathize or donate to the local shelter – believe the person on the street ended up there at his or her own fault.
People experiencing homelessness are three times more likely to die than the general population across all age groups and often die from illnesses that can be treated or prevented.
No matter how someone loses his or her home, he or she is our fellow Tulsan. It is on all of us to be respectful, make eye contact, and offer assistance in the form of making a call or providing a phone number to services.
When the community cares about addressing the issue of homelessness and when they share information about Tulsa's efforts to do so, we can make a real impact – together.
Please utilize the following templates and guidelines for your businesses and organizations to help increase understanding and sensitivity around individuals experiencing homelessness.
It is possible non-threatening individuals experiencing homelessness may present themselves at our doors seeking assistance. Our desire is to treat these guests with respect while also being mindful of the safety of our employees. We recommend the following guidelines in how we respond in these visits:
Of course, in the case of an emergency or life-threatening situation, immediately call 911.
If you're experiencing any issues and have questions about what to do, reach out to [name/contact].
Does your office have a reliable screening process for visitors? You may have an existing HR policy about solicitors and non-employees entering restricted areas, but we encourage you to also think about how your front desk person and other employees handle encounters with individuals experiencing homelessness.
The following are sample policies regarding unauthorized visitors:
Our company does not allow unauthorized visitors of any kind, particularly beyond the borders of our entrance/front desk.
If an unauthorized visitor enters the building/door, remain professional but please ask him or her to leave immediately. If you determine the visitor poses a physical or verbal threat, contact the HR department or call 9-1-1.
If you believe the unauthorized visitor is experiencing homeless and is seeking food or shelter, please refer the person to a local shelter.
This is a private building / place of business, but we have visitors who enter and leave the building throughout the day. However, some of those visitors may be unauthorized, and it is important for the safety of our workplace environment that all employees know the steps to dealing with unauthorized visitors.
Determine if a visitor is authorized or expected in your workplace. Do not make assumptions. You have the right to ask for a name and purpose of the visit.
If the visitor is unauthorized but does not pose a threat, remain professional and ask him or her to leave.
If the visitor is unauthorized and poses a threat, contact the HR department or call 9-1-1.
If the visitor appears to be experiencing homelessness or is seeking food, shelter or financial assistance, please refer him or her to a local shelter.
If you encounter a Tulsan who is experiencing homelessness, may have mental illness or substance abuse issue, or who is asking you for money in an aggressive manner, the answer is not always to call 9-1-1 or the police non-emergency number. Following is a resource list for non-threatening, non-emergency situations.
Community Service Council's Housing & Homelessness Team is happy to attend meetings to present or to simply participate in discussion on the topic of homelessness and housing instability. If your organization would like to schedule a presentation, please click below.
We will customize a presentation to your needs that can include the following information:
● Best practices for interacting with homeless visitors in your area of business;
● Ways to help individuals experiencing homelessness, or at-risk for homelessness;
● Ways to help local nonprofits working to prevent and end homelessness in Tulsa;
● Updates on work accomplished by the local collaborative A Way Home for Tulsa;
● Education on Coordinated Entry (the process by which we help homeless individuals get into housing);
● Policies that can be implemented that support individuals experiencing, or at-risk of, homelessness.
Tulsa has made significant progress through A Way Home for Tulsa (AWH4T), a collaboration of 30 organizations coordinated by the Community Service Council working together to prevent and end homelessness.
While our progress is promising, we have an urgent need to address the crisis of unsheltered Tulsans, the capacity of our shelters to meet current needs, and to make sure there is enough safe and affordable housing. We must equally focus on preventing youth and families from becoming homeless and diverting Tulsans who do become homeless from entering our shelters or sleeping on the streets if they have other safe options available.
Through the generous support of the Anne and Henry Zarrow Foundation, we have contracted with San Francisco's HomeBase to lead Tulsa through a strategic planning process to reduce and stabilize vulnerable populations from experiencing homelessness.

Une Montagne Nommèe Nun-Kun
Une Montagne Nommée Nun-Kun, by Bernard Pierre. Preface by Sir John Hunt. 199 pages, 15 photographs, 5 sketch maps. Paris: Amiot-Dumont, 1954.
This book describes the 1953 French expedition which effected the first ascent of the Nun-Kun, a handsome peak rising to 23,410 feet, some 60 miles east of Srinagar in Kashmir. Its ascent was a notable feat and Bernard Pierre's book is a worthy description of the adventure. The style is straightforward but always interesting. The five sketch maps are excellent and enable the reader to locate and follow the course of action with precision at all times. The photographs complement the story nicely and several are quite extraordinary.
The courage and perseverance of the party and their leader in the face of prolonged bad weather and even after having been carried nearly a thousand feet in an avalanche, are much to be admired. To learn that Claude Kogan was one of the two to reach the summit comes as no surprise to those who know her.

Udupi, Oct 19, 2018: Video documentation of the life and culture of Koraga community was carried out by the Regional Resources Centre for Folk Performing Arts, MAHE, at Bommarabettu village near Hiriyadka recently.
A statement issued said that the documentation took place in Koragara Koppa of Padubhaga Mane. The preparation of various baskets, and other domestic articles, by members of the Koraga community with a certain kind of creeper available in forest area was documented.
In a sense it is both an art and craft. The domestic articles include Hedige (Pudaayi), Gerase (Thadpe), Kudpu, Thattikudpu, Perarpikuruve, different kinds of baskets and handicrafts.
Members of Koraga community, participated in this process. On behalf of the centre, folk scholar K.L. Kundanthaya and others carried out the documentation.

British banks are among the world's best corporate communicators,
according to a survey of international financial journalists.
The findings show 67 per cent of business journalists quizzed said they
felt British banks provided good or excellent corporate information -
ranking third just behind the US and Swiss, with 69 per cent and 68 per
cent respectively.
But the study, compiled by Fishburn Hedges (FH) and its global affiliate
network GFC/Net, found only 57 per cent of British financial journalists
felt banks were good at understanding their needs.
On a global basis, journalists said they considered the banking sector
behind in its approach to transparency, with 69 per cent rating the
accessibility and openness of bank's management as either poor or
FH head of financial comms Andrew Marshall said the research, conducted
late last year, was influenced by the dramatic slowdown in the economy:
'A slower market meant there was more emphasis on communicating any good
'But the flip-side is that there was a lot of bad news with poor results
and redundancies and journalists gave mixed feelings on how well banks
communicated on these issues,' he added.
The findings revealed 59 per cent of journalists felt banks'
communications had improved over the last year.
Japanese banks were singled out for providing an inadequate level of PR
- as little as five per cent of those polled rated corporate
communications from Japanese banks as good.


text: Home > About > School History Share : School HistorySt. Edmund School HistoryThe Dixie Catholic Board was constituted in November 1953 due to the dedication and vision of Father Healy and Applewood Acres resident Ed LeMay. The Dixie Catholic Board undertook the building of its first school, St. Patrick in 1953 on Dixie Rd. near Dundas St. and its second school, St. Edmund on Melton Dr. in 1959. The Dixie Catholic Board purchased 3.85 acres of land from the Lloyd Lever Estate at a cost of $7,500.00 per acre. St. Edmund School was designed by Servos and Cauley and constructed for $75,000.00 by Brampton Home Builders. By September 1961, St. Edmund housed 109 students in grades K, 3, 4, 5 and 6, while students in grades 1, 2, 7, 8 attended St. Patrick School.In 1962, the Dixie Catholic Board became a part of the Combined Roman Catholic Separate School Board and later in 1969, joined the Dufferin-Peel Separate School Board. The first addition to St. Edmund School was in 1963. Portable classrooms were added as student numbers grew and classes increased. St. Patrick School was closed in 1967 and later served as the first Dufferin-Peel Board Office.A permanent addition to St. Edmund School was started in the summer of 1992 and was ready for occupation early in 1993. Three portables were added to the St. Edmund School site in November 2005 in order to accommodate the growing number of students.St. Edmund proudly continues to serve the Catholic Community as part of the Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board. Our Hero - Ed LeMayWhen Ed LeMay and his wife Val moved to Applewood Acres, there were no Catholic Schools for children to attend. He encouraged other parents to join him in the development of a Catholic school system in the Toronto Township. Under his leadership, the group went door to door and raised enough money to establish a tiny school board known as the Dixie Catholic Board. Ed LeMay served as Trustee from 1953 to 1959. He served as chairman from 1960 to 1962. With the amalgamation of four small boards in South Peel, he became the first chairman of the combined Roman Catholic Separate School Board and held the position until 1967. When the Mississauga Board was established in 1968, he was its representative on the interim separate school organizational committee, and then became chairman of the new Dufferin-Peel Roman Catholic Separate School Board one year later. Ed LeMay was appointed the Board's Assistant Administrator and then its Business Superintendent until his retirement in 1988. He passed away on June 19, 2000.Taken from: Apple Blossoms & Satellite Dishes June 2004 by Dave Cook Principals: Sister St. Victor 1959-1963 Sister Mary Zita 1963-1964 Sister Marie Noel 1964-1965 Sister Leona 1965-1969 Florence Hosick 1969-1970 Ernie Henderson 1970-1975 John Sward 1975-1983 Robert Fisher 1983-1992 Rita Adams 1992-1995 Steve Palmateer 1995-2002Deirdre Furlong 2002-2008Teresa Frendo 2008 – 2012Anna Maltby 2012 – 2018Tom Podobnik 2018 – present

Chicks deserve better.
"The article "Downed Cow" 28 years ago changed my life forever." – Maria Dolores Power
Downed Cow
The truck carrying this cow was unloaded at Walton Stockyards in Kentucky one September morning. After the other animals were removed from the truck, she was left behind, unable to move.
Stockyard workers used customary electric prods in her ear to try to get her out of the truck, then they beat her and kicked her in the face, ribs, and back, but she still didn't move. They tied a rope around her neck, tied the other end to a post in the ground, and drove the truck away. The cow was dragged along the floor of the truck and fell to the ground, breaking both her hind legs and her pelvis in the process. She remained this way until 7:30 that evening.
For the first three hours, she lay in the hot sun crying out. Periodically, when she urinated or defecated, she used her front legs to drag herself along the gravel roadway to a clean spot. She also tried to crawl to a shaded area, but she was unable to move far enough. Altogether, she only managed to crawl between 13 and 14 yards.
The stockyard employees wouldn't allow her any drinking water; the only water she received was given to her by Jessie Pierce, a local animal rights activist. After she was contacted by a woman who witnessed the incident, Jessie arrived at noon. Stockyard workers did not cooperate to help her, so she called the Kenton County police. A police officer arrived but was instructed by his superiors to do nothing; he left at 1 p.m.
The stockyard operator informed Jessie that he had permission from the insurance company to kill the cow but wouldn't do it until Jessie left. Although doubtful that he would keep his word, Jessie left at 3. She returned at 4:30 and found the stockyard deserted. Three dogs were attacking the cow, who was still alive. She had suffered a number of bite wounds, and her drinking water had been removed. Jessie contacted the state police.
Four officers arrived at 5:30. State trooper Jan Wuchner wanted to shoot the cow but was told that a veterinarian should kill her. The facility's two veterinarians would not euthanize her; they claimed that in order to preserve the value of the meat, the cow could not be destroyed. A butcher eventually arrived at 7:30 and shot the cow.
Her body was purchased for $307.50. When the stockyard operator was questioned by a reporter from The Kentucky Post, he stated, "We didn't do a damned thing to it", and referred to the attention given to the cow by humane workers and police as "bullcrap". He laughed throughout the interview, saying that there was nothing wrong with the way that the cow was treated.
This is not an isolated case. It is so common that animals in this condition are known in the meat industry as "downers". According to the meat industry's own statistics, each year, millions of chickens, turkeys, pigs, and cows arrive at the slaughterhouse either dead or too sick or injured to walk. The animals become severely crippled or ill after a lifetime of abuse in factory farms and a very difficult journey to the slaughterhouse, during which they are shipped through all weather extremes without any food or water.
Factory farms don't provide individualized medical care or humane euthanasia to sick animals: It's cheaper to let the animals suffer and eventually die. The suffering caused by the meat, egg, and dairy industries' cost-cutting measures is enormous.
The egg industry, for example, confines between five and 11 birds to small wire battery cages, despite the fact that the extreme crowding causes some of the birds to get sick and die. Egg-industry expert Bernard Rollin sums up the simple, cold-hearted reasoning of egg factory-farm operators by saying that "chickens are cheap, cages are expensive"
. After PETA brought much-needed attention to this issue, the Kenton County Police Department adopted a policy requiring that euthanasia be performed on all downed animals immediately, whether they are on the farm, in transit, or at the slaughterhouse.
Many other law enforcement agencies don't have such policies, and downed animals continue to suffer everywhere. It is up to the public to demand change in how the meat, egg, and dairy industries treat animals, and it is up to consumers to refuse to purchase the products of this miserable industry. Otherwise, many more animals will continue to suffer the same agonizing fate of this nameless cow.
So what can you do? You can go vegan. It's as simple as that. This torture isn't endured by animals in meat industries only. Go vegan and refuse to fund and support this insane cruelty and heartlessness. Spread the word. Educate.
A diet which includes animal products and byproducts are not good for you, for the animals, or for the planet.
"Compassion hurts. When you feel connected to everything, you also feel responsible for everything. And you cannot turn away. Your destiny is bound with the destinies of others. You must either learn to carry the universe or be crushed by it. You must grow strong enough to love the world, yet empty enough to sit down at the same table with its worst horrors." Andrew Boyd
10 Things You Didn't Want to Hear About Beef
Eating beef isn't as manly or as patriotic as you think it is, and it definitely isn't doing your health or the health of the planet any good.
Here are 10 reasons why you should skip the Big Mac and leave cows to get on with their own business:
1. Someone had to die for that steak (obviously). Beef is the flesh of a cow, and that cow was once a living, breathing, feeling individual that had a right to live free from pain and suffering. Cows are branded, have their horns cut off and males are castrated, all without anesthesia. At the slaughterhouse, they are shot with a bolt gun to the brain, hung upside down and their throats are slit. Many cows are still conscious throughout the process.
2. Dioxin. Beef contains worrying quantities of the toxic organic chemical dioxin which has been linked to cancer, ADD, immune deficiency, chronic fatigue syndrome, endometriosis, birth defects and nerve and blood disorders. A single hamburger contains 300 times as much dioxin as the EPA states as an acceptable dose for an adult!
3. Beef is an inefficient use of grain. One third of the world's grain harvest is used to feed cattle. It's not logical to grow grain to feed animals when there are an estimated one in every six people going hungry each day, and only a fraction of what we feed cows is actually turned into flesh that humans can eat. It's much more efficient for grain to be consumed directly by humans.
4. Beef is a waste of water. Water is a precious resource and it's wasteful and irresponsible to squander this for something we don't need. It takes an average of 2,500 gallons of water to produce 1 pound of beef. There is no alternative to water so we cannot underestimate usage. If we run out, we cannot grow food or maintain vital life functions.
5. Beef is a pollutant. Factory farms and feedlots produce a massive amount of toxic waste that pollutes both the air and water. The feces, which is stored in huge lagoons, seeps into nearby waterways killing fish and destroying water quality. It also emits harmful chemicals into the air. Studies show that people living near factory farms have higher rates of miscarriage, neurological diseases and respiratory problems.
6. Beef is destroying the world's rainforests. The high demand and price of beef encourages ranchers to burn forests to create new rangelands. This never ending cycle of destruction has driven thousands of plant and animal species to extinction, and is causing a strain on the earth's ability to covert carbon dioxide into oxygen.
7. Beef is causing desertification. Beef production is one of the major causes of desertification around the world. Delicate root systems are destroyed by overgrazing, unsettling the topsoil which is then eroded by winds leaving only the clay/sand subsoil behind.
8. Happy Meals are making our children obese. Fast food industry giants target children in their marketing, causing them to associate eating at these restaurants as a positive and fun experience, and as a result our children are fatter and unhealthier than ever before.
9. Cows are amazing animals. Like humans, cows have best friends and form close friendships with their herd mates. They choose to spend their time with 2-4 preferred individuals, and can hold grudges for years if they take a disliking to someone. They get excited when they solve problems, they like sleeping close to their families, can detect odors up to five miles away, have a 360 degree panoramic vision, are devotional mothers and are generally extremely inquisitive animals.
10. It's probably not beef. Chances are that lasagna you're tucking into is not even beef after all. It could be horse, donkey, pig or who knows, it may even be stray dogs or cats that have been rounded up from the streets, especially if it's an imported product!
The suffering of factory farm chickens!
Tell me again how your egg addiction is worth their pain? "
You can't walk a mile in the shoes of a battery chicken, because battery chickens can't walk a foot, much less a mile. But stand for an hour in the cage of a battery chicken, Stand jammed so tightly in a cage with other birds that you cannot turn around or stretch your wings. Stand up to your knees in your own excrement and the excrement of your fellow prisoners while being constantly splattered with the feces and urine of prisoners in cages stacked above you. Breathe air so poisonous with ammonia from the urine that your jailers and torturers have to wear protective masks when they enter the building. Never see sunshine. Never breathe fresh air. If you are injured or fall ill, just suffer; nobody cares, nobody is going to send for a doctor. If you die, so what? It's cheaper that way." -A quote from a speech transcript by Norm Phelps
Lets learn about horrific Factory Farms and how we can stop them!
Did you know that more than 10 billion animals are raised for dairy, meat and eggs each year in the U.S.? Most of these animals are crammed together by the hundreds or thousands.
Not only do these factory farms have poor or nonexistent animal welfare standards—but they're also environmental nightmares.
Here are the top five ways factory farms are hurting the Earth:
Animal agriculture generates 18% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions, including 9% of carbon dioxide, 65% of nitrous oxide emissions and 37% of methane emissions. Most of that methane comes from belching cows and rotting manure.
In the U.S., confined animals generate three times more raw waste than humans generate. Their manure is commonly stored in open-air "poop lagoons," which release dangerous toxins such as hydrogen sulfide, ammonia and methane into the air and leach heavy metals, drugs and other additives given to the animals into the ground water. That's just gross!
The waste is often used as crop fertilizer and over-applied to nearby fields, resulting in further air pollution and high levels of phosphorus and nitrogen in the water supply.
Excess nitrogen robs water of oxygen and destroys aquatic life.
Factory farms deplete our water by using large volumes for cleaning, cooling and drinking.
The fossil fuels required to raise this staggering number of animals and produce their food emit 90 million tons of carbon dioxide worldwide every year.
More than half of the world's corn is fed to animals, and corn requires more nitrogen fertilizer than any other crop.

Relaxed Greenwich London Engagement Shoot | Lolography
I can't wait to take his name, become a family and conquer this thing called life together.
Easing you into this week with another scrumptious love story.
Meet Cantara and Michael. This gorgeous duo grew up together and met when Cantara was the tender age of 16. They knew each other for 11 years before they decided to make their love for each other, well, official. They got engaged (third time lucky) in March 2017 and are due to marry this summer.
Michael and Cantara headed to Greenwich to have their engagement shoot taken at the place where they had their very first date captured by the delightful Lolography
Being able to get our photos taken in the place where we had our first date felt so special and we know we'll love looking back on these for years to come!
How you met?
Michael and I met in College. We were both in Graphic Design and Media Studies together and for me, it was an instant crush. Michael, however, had forgotten my name and had to read my ID card! (Nu Bride: LOL! Typical!) We started spending time together in class and at break times and Michael soon asked me out. That was 12 years ago and since then we've grown up together. A friend recently said we look as in love now as we did when we were in College and that's all we could ever hope for really.
Proposal story?
On Christmas Michael revealed he would be whisking me away for a spa weekend – the dream! He did well to disguise it as my Christmas present because if he'd randomly booked a weekend away I would definitely have suspected something!
Getting away wasn't without its hurdles; what with my granddad sadly passing away and the spa needing renovations meant Michael had to re-book 3 times. Third times the charm, as they say.
On the day I made us arrive late thanks to my terrible time-keeping skills (sorry Michael!) (Nu Bride: I have the time-keeping disease too Cantara lol!) so we didn't have time to hit the spa, but we made the most of our stay exploring the grounds and enjoying some quality us-time. After a delicious dinner, Michael led me around the hotel searching for a way up to the rooftop balcony. We felt like school kids running around after hours, opening doors not knowing what we'd find.
We couldn't find our way up to the roof, so we gave up and headed back to our room. Once there, I turned to grab something from my bag and Michael had dropped to one knee. (Nu Bride: smooth!) He told me he'd planned to propose on the roof but things hadn't gone to plan! We've been together a long time and both knew we were going to marry each other, so I never thought Michael would be able to surprise me when he proposed, but there in that moment I was completely shocked and didn't know what to do or say, but of course, I said yes!
Favourite things about each other?
Cantara says: Michael is determined, competitive and loves a challenge. Sometimes those traits can be annoying, but mostly I admire how once he sets his mind to something, he will make it happen. His smile lights up the room and he makes me laugh every day.
Michael says: Cantara is perfect wife material. She is honest, brilliant with advice, beautiful and is always there for me when I need her. Not only me but she is the person anyone can always turn to. And that asssss! (Nu Bride: Hey, keep it clean peeps, this is PG rated lol) Sorry I meant eyes, had me from day one.
What are you looking forward to most about marrying each other?
Cantara – We're already a team, but I can't wait to take his name, become a family and conquer this thing called life together.
Michael – I'll be proud to finally call her my wife and for it to be true as I had given her that title a long, long time ago.
The Talent
One Response to "Relaxed Greenwich London Engagement Shoot | Lolography"

abhizen0 started following 240 day rule for H4 and H1 transfer based on approved I140
H1 transfer based on approved I140
abhizen0 posted a topic in H1B : 7th Year ExtensionI came to US in Feb 2013 on H1B and my I140 was approved in Sept 2015. My H1 extension was filled in May 2018 (last I797/I94 was valid till July 2018) and am hitting my 240 day next week.. H1 extension was upgraded to Premium but I got RFE and will be responding to RFE in next week. In case I do not get decision by end of my 240 day next week, I plan to go on Loss Of Pay and continue to stay in US till decision is received. In case my extension is denied, can I change the Employer and can new Employer file for transfer of my H1B in premium based on my approved I140?
240 day rule for H4
abhizen0 replied to abhizen0's topic in H1B : H-4 IssuesThanks for providing update. If I leave US and let H4 stay back, it considered as "Parking of dependents" which is illegal.
240 day rule for H4
abhizen0 posted a topic in H1B : H-4 IssuesMy H1B extension (against I140) was applied in May 2018 and I will be reaching 240 day limit on 23 Mar and cannot stay in US and be working after 3/23. H1 extension was upgraded to premium on 2/23 but I got a RFE that I need to respond by 5/23. My son is on H4 dependent and in his final semester of 12th. In case he moves out of US, he will be unable to complete his High School and will not be eligible for College admission even though he got acceptance from most of major undergrad colleges. My query is can H4 dependent continue to stay in US after 240 days pending decision from USCIS ? Will there be any issue if I move out of US on 3/22 and they continue in US, respond to RFE by 5/20 so that my son can complete his High School. In case my H1 is rejected, they will also move out of US in 2-3 days and my son can get into college on F1 visa. Will highly appreciate if I can get some right insight on how to navigate through the situation since I just have 7 days to act....

Ahead of their upcoming fifth studio album In Your Own Sweet Time, The Fratellis have shared the video for latest single 'Stand Up Tragedy.'
With all the reckless energy of new kids on the block, but the wisdom and talent to match their lengthy career, 'Stand Up Tragedy,' and the accompanying video, are endless amounts of fun. Speaking of the video, Jon Fratelli said: "We needed something that captured the spirit of the song, that didn't take itself too seriously and had one simple suggestion…'Dance God Damn You!'" There's plenty of dancing, for sure, and with the addition of sunglasses and feather boas, it's impossible not to want to get involved.
In Your Own Sweet Time is out 9 March 2018

Thorny and divisive issues, which are linked to the political or moral sphere, have often been seen as taboos for large companies. The risk of negative repercussions in being the bearers of critical or controversial messages has very often deterred brands and entrepreneurs from taking a stand for or against a particular cause.
Activism is for those who (really) believe in it
You can take a stand. Courage, vision and consistency are the fundamental ingredients.

The other lesson is that the side with the next-largest budget after the top four should not lose hope. Arsenal just needed Liverpool to underplay their wage bill for a few years while Wenger steered his side to 70-point seasons, which was enough to maintain the Gunners' position in the Champions League. Last year, Liverpool didn't need the good fortune of Manchester United having perhaps the worst points-to-wage-bill season on record, but they could have made the Champions League with a merely good season as well.
For teams on the lower end, the lift is much more strenuous. The following graph of inflation-adjusted wage bills shows just how difficult it is to build a 70-point squad without elite resources.

The Dangers of Manchester City's Transfer Strategy
SB Nation: Manchester City's risky business
Following their short decline and the advent of financial fair play regulations, Chelsea changed their transfer strategy drastically. A focus on younger players to both rebuild the squad and to sell to fund other purchases developed. So far, the strategy looks a strong one.
Manchester City's graph bears some worrying similarities to what Chelsea looked like before the decline. The club is not buying the foundation of a new club in the age 20-22 subset, and their purchasing is focusing even more strongly on the late peak 26-28 age group. While City at first seemed to have learned some of the lessons of Chelsea's poor spending strategy, their recent acquisitions reflect a new form of risk-taking.
Wage Bills in the English Premier League
Published at the Washington Post.
How Wage Bills Predict Outcomes and Who Does Best with their Money:
But even within a stratified system, better- and worse-run clubs stand out. I did a quick regression based on points and inflation-adjusted payroll to find the expected points for a club based on its total payroll. This does not include transfer spending, but for most clubs transfer spending tracks with wage bill reasonably well. The results can be seen at the end of the article. A few top clubs stand out. In the scatter plot below, I have marked a few clubs in particular. At the top end, you can see the impressive numbers of Alex Ferguson's Manchester United and David Moyes's Everton teams. At the bottom end, Newcastle United shows up as a consistent underperformer regardless of who has been in charge.
On Payroll and Depth during the Holiday Fixtures
Published at ESPN.
How Payroll Predicts Holiday Outcomes in the EPL:
Clubs with wage bills among the top four in the league tend to do very well no matter the circumstance, but particularly at the New Year. They average about 2.0 points per match over most of the season; during the holidays, that rate jumps 10 percent to 2.2 points per match. This means that every festive period, one of the four richest clubs wins a match they otherwise would have drawn or lost. Given that the title and fourth place races are often decided by a point or two, those extra points at the holiday can make all the difference.
At the same time, not every high-payroll club sees the benefits of depth every year. If a high-payroll club like Manchester United or Arsenal goes on a run through the winter fixtures, it should not be surprising, but such a run is in no way guaranteed.

Holes 1 through 9 play inland and uphill through dense tropical vegetation and provide the player with magnificent views of Nusa Dua below, the Indian Ocean, and on a clear day a view of distant mountains.
The setting of holes 1 through 9 features creeks, canyons, and native vegetation filled with tropical birds. The golf course architect team of Robin Nelson and Rodney Wright incorporated small hand-built stone walls to terrace the sides of fairways and tees in order to emulate the rice fields terraces of the Bali countryside.
The setting for holes 10 through 16 present the golfer with lush gently sculptured fairways through a mature coconut grove. The coconut palms, some as tall as 100 feet, provide vertical definition to the golf course.
In the third distinct setting of holes 17 and 18 the golfer experiences a beautiful seaside setting.
The 17th hole plays out to the beautiful blue Indian Ocean and usually into a cool ocean breeze. The 18th hole plays from the beach back to the clubhouse along side a 16-acre lake.
In all, the varied natural setting of Bali Golf and Country Club provides Bali guests with a truly unique and memorable golfing experience.
Nirwana Bali Golf Club

It is a course that will provide challenges to all golfers of all skill levels.
The greens are designed to provide a fair good putting surface, without severe undulations. The subtle breaks on the greens will always keep the golfer guessing. The greens are also well – bunkered, with little room for errant shots. The wind is a factor and comes into play on a few holes, especially on hole 2, which is a Par 3.
The golf course is well laid out with seven Par 4?s, one Par 5 and one Par 3. That will give the golfers enough variety and challenges to enjoy a good game of golf.
The higher handicappers has always the option of laying up and staying out of trouble, while the better player needs to be sharp and accurate in order to play to handicap.

I bought a new toy!!
Growing up, my grandmother lived with us. She was always there when I got home from school with some sort of treat and either milk or cookies. She always had time to sit down with me for a few minutes each day. I truly treasured those moments. She also made us fancy breakfasts on Saturday mornings. One of the things she used to make were rosettes – I have such great memories of these. I was out shopping the other day and saw this at the store – somehow it jumped right into my basket!
I had to give it a try one Saturday morning. These are my very own first rosettes with my very own rosette iron! They are not perfect like my grandmother's were, but they were ok.
Here are the finished rosettes! I am ridiculously proud of these misshaped pieces of cooked dough!
I had a little bit of batter left over after all the rosettes were done so I just cooked them up.
Then they were dusted with powdered sugar and promptly eaten! All of us LOVED them. I can't wait to make them again – hopefully they will come out a little better :o)

KILDARE, Okla. – For weeks, fire crews across the state have been battling wildfires in western Oklahoma.
Dry conditions, low humidity and strong winds played a major role in allowing fires to spread across county lines, especially in western Oklahoma.
Although fire crews almost have complete control of the 34 Complex fire and the Rhea Fire, it didn't come without sacrifice.
Two people died as a result of the fires, and dozens of homes have been destroyed by the blaze. Ranchers and farmers have also lost hundreds of heads of cattle and equipment as the fires tore through their land.
However, residents and ranchers weren't the only ones to lose necessary equipment to the flames.
In the middle of fires in their district, Kildare Fire Department's driveline snapped on their only tanker. As a result, the transmission casing cracked and the power time-out shaft going to the pump broke.
On Friday, Dolese Bros. Co. donated a new truck to the Kildare Fire Department so they can continue fighting fires.
"Dolese is proud to deliver to the community of Kildare during their fight against the wildfires in rural Oklahoma," Dolese Community Relations Director Kermit Frank said. "If we have a truck available when one is requested, we do our best to deliver."
Company representatives handed the keys to a 2006 Sterling truck chassis to Kildare Fire Department Chief Travis Harris.
"The Kildare Fire Department is grateful for Dolese's donation of a 2006 Sterling truck chassis to replace the department's 40-year-old tanker truck," Harris said. "Dolese has given my department peace of mind about our ability to effectively keep our community safe from the current wildfire and future fires. This truck will be a great asset to the fire department and community of Kildare."

A bit is the most fundamental unit of storage in classical computation. When it comes to quantum computation we have an analogues namely quantum bit or qubit in short. Scientists relate states of a single classical bit with real life binaries like state of Light Bulb, Truth-False, voltage levels, open-close, etc. It tells us that a single classical bit can only be in one of the two states, i.e either 0 or 1. Thats something typical of a classical bit.
So, what is a qubit? A qubit just like a classical bit has two possible states and (denoted in dirac notation ). But unlike classical bit a qubit can be in more than two possible states. That is, it can be in a superposition of states and . Mathematically, a superposition state looks like,
In the above expression is the probability amplitude for state and is the probability amplitude for state . and both can be complex numbers. Since and are probabilities amplitudes, they must be normalized. Mathematically,
Qubits can be respresented in terms of polarization of a photon where vertical and horizontal polarization are the two states. It can also be represented in terms of spin of an electron. A qubit can also be visualized geometrically as a unit vector on a plane.
A qubit remains in the superposition until and unless the state of the qubit is measured. If we try to perform a measurement on a qubit the superposition state breaks down and what we get is either a or state.
Just like classical bits we can pass qubits through different quantum gates to produce new sets of qubits.
Implications of superposition
Let us suppose that we have a solution that is encoded with bits. Then total number of possible solution is . With classical bits we can check all possible strings with checkups. Thats a lot of checkups to perform.
However, with qubits we can put all the bits in a superposition state such that all the possible solutions (states) exists simultaneously. If we measure the qubits in superposition then we will get a random bit state which may or may not be the solution. We need to have a circuit which can verify if the measured state is solution or not. Consequently this will reduce the required checkups to .
Superposition is the phenomena that sets quantum computation apart from classical line of thoughts. It is superposition that gives qubits unprecedented advantage over classical bits. Quantum computation carries huge potential in the field of cryptography and scientific calculations where number of steps to a solution are exponentially high.

CHARLOTTE, NC (WBTV) - A man was charged in connection to multiple breaking and enterings in south Charlotte Wednesday.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg police officers responded to the 4300 block of Castleton Road Monday morning in reference to a suspicious person. The caller said he heard a loud noise outside of his home and observed a person checking door handles to cars parked in his driveway, a release from Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department stated.
Officers say upon their arrival they located the suspect near the victim's home and detained him. Officers reviewed video footage and confirmed he matched the description of the person seen in the video.
Demarco Threatt was arrested and charged with two counts of attempted breaking and entering of a motor vehicle. Officers say they searched his book bag and located a check, gift cards, loose change, a $100 bill gold plate and counterfeit money.
Later in the day, officers responded to multiple reports of breaking/entering of a motor vehicle in the same area where Threatt was initially located, officers say. Police were able to match the stolen property found on Threatt with property that had been previously stolen.
Detectives obtained additional warrants on Threatt for four counts of possession of stolen property, found counts of breaking and entering of a motor vehicle and four counts of larceny, according to the release.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 704-334-1600.

I've been a civil litigator and trial lawyer for over 28 years. My most rewarding cases are the ones where I defend the little guy against the giants and win.
Jeffrey F. Ryan Solicitor, on Vimeo Reviews What It Takes To Be A Good Trial Lawyer. Jeffrey F. Ryan Litigator On LinkedIn Explains How To Win A Case. As Jeffrey F.
Ryan on LinkedIn explains, there are three generally accepted methods to win both a civil or criminal case. The first of these is to win on a technicality, which although not relevant to every trial in which the lawyer will be engaged upon is possible in a surprisingly large number of cases. However, as Jeffrey Ryan concedes, winning a case based on this strategy requires considerable skill and knowledge to isolate the technicality and use it effectively in a court of law. This is because the lawyer needs to be both dogged and meticulous. He or she will need to discover, investigate and uncover any possible technicalities.
Secondly, negotiate a settlement or plea bargain that is good for the client. Finally, there is winning the actual trial. Jeffrey Ryan knows the law like the back of his hand. Jeffrey Ryan – Putting People First. The general impression that we get from the legal system is that it is a cold machine, operating independently of human emotion and desires.
While this is largely true, that is because the system was designed this way. It was designed to be impartial and take into account only the relevant facts and information necessary to dig at the heart of what is true and fair in any given situation. Of course, this explanation is a gross oversimplification but if we consider this as the underlying motivation of all court proceedings, then we can factor into the equation one of the most powerful tools of any attorney, their humanity. Jeffrey Ryan – What Motivates an Attorney. Even your average individual probably understands that attorneys face job pressure that rivals those of doctors and other highly skilled professions.
Not only are they expected to put in long hours in the office, they are expected to appear in court and handle all necessary paperwork surrounding any number of cases they are juggling at a given time. How is it that these individuals are able to wake up and face their workload each day without eventually cracking under the pressure? For many attorneys, their source of inspiration and strength comes from a deeply rooted desire to help others. After all, that is the number one cited reason that attorneys say brought them into the professional in the first place. What's more, without this strong sense of conviction, it would be difficult to make it through the amount of schooling and testing necessary to get your diploma, pass the bar, and join a firm. 'A horse, a horse, my kingdom for a horse!" The announcement today that the Takata airbag recall will now likely hit the 50 million mark, with some pundits projecting one-quarter of all vehicles on the roads in the US will be affected is mind boggling.
Due to aging parts, humidity and fluctuations in temperature the Takata bags explode and shoot metal fragments towards you. This means that one in four us who have a car outfitted with these gems can become shrapnel victims. Pretty close to the same odds as a soldier in Syria or Iraq has of encountering shrapnel at close range. This news comes on the heels of Volkswagen's stunning admission last year that they deliberately falsified emissions reports in a majority of vehicles. Last month we learned that VW will face up to $18 billion in fines and a tarnished brand image that may slow sales for years.
Nonsense in North Carolina. It's very clear, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act prohibits an employer from discriminating against an individual based on sex.
McCory is suing the Federal government for overstepping its bounds in hopes of circumventing the law they are in violation of. This tactic might work in rural North Carolina, but not against a legal and political savvy United States Attorney General and her staff, and the Department of Justice. Who, in addition to having the Civil Rights Act on her side, she also has the opinion of experts in 12 states, including law enforcement officials, government employees, and advocates for victims of sexual assault. All of who have debunked the right-wing myth that sexual predators will exploit transgender non-discrimination laws to sneak into women's restrooms.
They called the myth baseless and "beyond specious, "fact there are no known cases of a transgender person violating anyone in a public restroom.

Deep in the woods live a reclusive race of humanoids. Large and very hairy, they wear no clothes and live simple, peaceful hunter/gatherer lives. But these are not simple creatures.

200 Word RPG of the Week: Go On Without Me
Some games are silly. Some games have hidden depths. Some games do both. Such is the case with Wyrdsmith's 200 Word RPG Go On Without Me. Three or more players play characters in a stereotypical action/horror movie who are trying to sacrifice themselves. Each player identifies his/her character's strengths and weaknesses (plus a dark secret, of course). A … Continue reading
200 Word RPG of the Week: Laughter or a Lit Flame
Jonathan Cook's Laughter or a Lit Flame is a haiku game. Apparently, games centered on writing haikus are relatively common within the microgame scene, but whenever I'd come across the concept in the past, the game basically just told you to write haiku. Laughter or a Lit Flame provides structure to those haiku, but in an intriguingly non-competitive … Continue reading

Monster Monday: Gaxxog the Incorrigible
Some monsters are simply beasts — strange, perhaps, but fundamentally no different than a panther or hyena. Gaxxog is an abberant creature, a thing seemingly escaped from the depths of the hells.

Some days, you want a complex, multi-faceted faction. Instead, today we have a classic force of what appear to be bad guys, but you can twist into good guys if desired.

200 Word RPG of the Week: Normaleware
A lot of 200 Word RPGs lack useful randomization mechanics. You may roll a die, but even there, the result is a normal pass/fail. Today's RPG, Nathan Knaack's Normaleware, is an exception. To start, I love that this game about androids infiltrating humanity not only includes Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics, but it condenses them while keeping their clarity. … Continue reading

Teenagers Are Using Baking Products to Get Drunk
Another day, another dangerous trend among teenagers.
We've been living in a time where kids are trying viral challenges, like the Tide Pod and 48 Hour Challenge, and finding new ways to consume alcohol or get their hands on the latest vaping product.
Unfortunately, there's a new under age drinking trend. According to ABC7 NY, students in Georgia are getting drunk off of a baking a product.
It's being reported that students from Grady High School in Atlanta, Georgia are going to their local grocery stores and purchasing bourbon vanilla extract.
Students then will allegedly mix it with their Starbucks drink and go into school "with a buzz." In one instance a student who drank the vanilla extract ended up getting drunk and was taken to the hospital.
ABC7 reports that Vanilla extract is "70 proof, which is a little less than a bottle of vodka" but obviously easier to purchase, by just heading to the closest grocery store.
