Sugar: the not so sweet truth
Published Monday, 24 February, 2014 by Beth Bradshaw
Here is one drug addiction that is very much under the radar, but so common in the average student diet. Sugar. Very few of us really understand the damage that excessive consumption can do to our bodies, and the part they play in weight gain. Now we are at University we have the freedom to eat what we want, we could easily fall victim to one of the most highly addictive drugs.
We do need some sugar in our diet, as it provides a ready supply of energy that helps keep our brain and bodies active. However, these are what we call 'empty calories' as sugar has no nutritional value whatsoever, so should be kept to a minimum.
Our guided daily amount (GDA) of all sugars is around 90g a day – to put it into perspective, one can of Coca Cola contains 33g of sugar. That's 36% of your GDA in one measly can, never mind everything else you eat that day. And if you thought that was bad, a 380ml bottle of Lucozade contains 64g! One University study found that nearly 50% of students consume more than one sugar sweetened drink every day- highlighting thatsugar consumption in student diets is definitely cause for concern.
What makes sugar so addictive?
When you're feeling tired, which is common after those late nights of partying or studying, most of us grab a sugary energy drink, chocolate bar or packet of sweets for that sugar rush which gives us that instant lift and improves our mood. But once our blood sugar levels return back to normal, we tend to get a sugar crash, where we end up craving more sugar, become irritable and the vicious cycle continues.
Scientific research has found sugar stimulates the reward receptors to the brain, and releases dopamine – which is where we get the feeling of pleasure, and the thought 'should I eat that again?' even when we know they are bad for us, thereby initiating binge eating. Regularly consuming excessive amounts of sugar can cause the brain to go into overdrive, and the brain may even start to depend on the presence of this addictive substance- similar to that of substance addiction!
Why should we eat less sugar?
The obvious one is our dental health. All sugars have a detrimental effect on our teeth, however, when we drink a sugary drink (which 50% of us do – every day!) the sugar washes through every nook and cranny in our jaw and can sit in places we often miss when brushing, growing bacteria. Heavy consumption of sugar along with insufficient brushing can cause severe erosion, reduction of tooth enamel and even tooth decay.
If you eat too many sugary foods, our bodies convert the excess calories into fat for storage. It is an incredibly complex process, but just think of it as overfilling your body with more fuel than it needs, so when your liver sugar storage is completely full, the excess sugar is converted into fatty acids and sent off into the blood stream to be deposited on, yep, you guessed it! Your hips, stomach and butt – the undesirables. So the fat in your diet isn't necessarily the culprit to those extra few pounds you might have put on since starting Uni!
Where to catch out hidden sugars and how to curb that sweet tooth!
Ever heard of hidden sugar? Probably not, given that it's often found in foods we don't expect it to be in. Here are some examples for you to watch out for, and some tips on how to try and limit your sugar consumption:
- Low-fat alternatives: You might think you've opted for a healthy choice, for example low-fat yoghurt or healthy living ready meals. However, fruit yoghurts often contain artificial fruit flavourings which are full of sugar and calories. Brands often take out the fat but replace it with lots of sugar to help enhance the taste. Instead, pick up plain low fat yoghurts instead, and add a handful of blueberries, strawberries or banana for a real healthy snack and cook your meals from scratch – this way, you know what's going into your food.
- Baked Beans and Sauces: your average tin of baked beans in a tomato sauce can contain up to 7.2g of sugar per 100g. This is often due to the sauce they come with, as processed tomato sauces are one of the common culprits for hidden sugar. The same applies to your tomato pasta sauces too, with ¼ of a jar of the popular Dolmio tomato sauce containing two teaspoons of the stuff! Make sure you check the nutrition labels on your beans and sauces to ensure they aren't too loaded with sugar or make your own! Here is a great student tried and tested tomato sauce recipe for you to try.
- Swap white for wholegrain: Just one slice of your bog standard white bread can be hiding up to 1.5g of sugar – don't be fooled into thinking savoury foods being sugar free! Try swapping your white bread, pasta and rice for wholegrain alternatives as they don't contain as much sugar and therefore don't raise your blood sugar levels so quickly.
- Manage your cravings: Make sure your mid-meal snacking is kept to a minimum by satisfying your appetite with a balanced, filling meal. Try to include a source of protein for example, eggs for your breakfast and chicken or turkey in your sandwiches, as eating protein can help slow down your digestion and keep you full.
- Pick-me-up: We all know the feeling, mid-way through the day at Uni where you start to lose concentration and become very tired. Rather than reaching for the choccy bars for that energy boost, try eating an orange or apple with a handful of nuts and seeds. You could even try a homemade flapjack, the oats will slowly release energy and keep your brain ticking for the next couple of hours.
I hope this week's blog has made you more aware of just how much sugar we are consuming on a daily basis, how dangerous this can be to our bodies and where to look out for it in everyday foods. I do believe Universities have a responsibility to encourage healthier eating habits in students; however, it's down to you to think twice about that next can of pop, chocolate bar or bag of Haribos. Have you got any tips, tricks or recipes that will to help satisfy your cravings but without the sugar? Don't forget to upload them to the Student Recipes website!

Even a quick survey of a classroom for toddlers can reveal a stark difference between children who come from orderly homes and those that come from chaotic homes. And this difference is more than cosmetic. The unrulier kids typically come from homes that do not offer them a good regular structure.
What is more, research has shown that the most important phase in a child's development typically is between the ages of 0 to 5.
It is during this period that a child requires a structured, dependable and predictable life more than anything else.
Kids who are afforded this luxury early on, go on to be more efficient that others and also better suited to forming their own routines going ahead.
The importance of a ritual:
Developing a ritual has immense sociological and psychological benefits for a child. The most important feeling that kids crave when they are very young is a feeling of safety.
Families that create a safe and secure environment at home that is orderly and structured imbibe in their kids a sense of calm and safety.
This is only possible if the family helps create a routine that the kid imbibes.
Routines create boundaries and sets realistic expectations:
One of the main reasons for an increasing sense of anxiety among children these days is that the modern lifestyle with all its complexities has become increasingly unpredictable.
Parents and other family members, whom the kid looks at as benchmarks, find themselves trapped in a vicious cycle of ever-increasing competition.
All of this play heavily on the child's mind and it starts to feel increasingly distressed and anxious. Routines give the child a way of setting realistic, achievable targets and also a way of getting through them.
In the "safe zone" that a routine creates, a child no longer finds each day to be filled with uncertainties and starts to reach out to the outside world positively.
Fewer variables:
One of the things that are most vital in child rearing is that the home should be a place that has the least number of variables.
It is the onus of the family that each member cultivates and projects a sense of calm and order around the child and sticks to it even during challenging times. It is this order that helps a child cope with and cultivate the right responses during moments of loss and tragedy in life.
Incorporating routine into everyday activities:
One of the most important points to remember about cultivating a routine is that it should be designed around the most mundane and repeatable activities such as meal and bed time stories. Often families ignore the very mundane tasks and try and focus exclusively on only one of events such as tours and vacations.
Keep the routine simple and easy to replicate:
Another important point to remember while creating a routine for your child is that children gravitate towards tasks that their young minds find easy to replicate. A super complicated lifestyle, no matter how structured, will never attract a child or give it a safe feeling. So, structure child's routine around activities that are even otherwise a part of your life, such as meal times, bathing times and rituals around bed times.
Routines enable better learning:
Children learn and perform better academically when they feel comfortable at home. Routines enable them not only to hit their goals more often but also enable them to get the most out of education.
All in all, establishing a regular routine is vital to your child's long-term development. Get your kid to one of the best preschools in India and offer it a healthy learning regime.

Angel festival is a big hit in Highbridge
PUBLISHED: 16:00 10 December 2017
Angels took over a Somerset church this weekend as people got into the festive spirit.
An angel festival was held at St John's Church, in Highbridge, and people filled the hall to pick up a festive bargain and enjoy some delicious food.
The churchyard was filled with scarecrow angels which children could be seen playing with, which were built by a number of different groups and individuals from the town.
A Christmas fair took place inside the church, in Church Street, which featured various bric-a-brac stalls, games and some traditional festive food including mulled wine and roasted chestnuts on an open fire.
But the highlight of the day was more than 650 angels which were created by knitters from in and around Highbridge which acted as a fun treasure hunt for visitors.

Paisley's MSP, George Adam Welcomes Fracking Ban
Paisley's MSP, George Adam Welcomes Fracking Ban George has welcomed the Scottish Government's announcement that fracking will be banned.
13 local authority areas have been identified as potentially having significant shale oil and gas reserves or coal bed methane.
The Scottish Government previously announced a moratorium while it ran a public consultation and examined evidence over health and public safety.
The consultation was the second largest ever run by the Scottish Government, receiving 60,535 valid responses – of which 99% were opposed to fracking.
Commenting, George said:
"People in Paisley and across Scotland had deep concerns about the development of fracking, which is why the Scottish Government put in place a moratorium while the evidence was carefully examined.
"The Scottish Government has now undertaken one of the most far reaching investigations into unconventional oil and gas of any government in the world.
"The judgement is now clear – we could not pursue fracking in confidence that it would not undermine public health or our climate change targets.
"And, importantly, the public consent in the communities that would be affected simply isn't there.
"I'm delighted that the Scottish Government are putting the interests of communities that would be affected first."

Chandler was found bloody and mutilated in a park. He was the victim of a botched, home neuter and then discarded like garbage. As a tiny puppy he was cut down the middle exposing his organs and doctors thought his chances of survival were slim, but we didn't give up!
After surgeries, skin grafts and a lot of late night cuddles at the hospital, Chandler survived. After his extensive recovery, he was adopted by Chef James Rigato who had this to say in a recent post:
"We're not sure of his exact birthdate but this little guy is recently 2 years old. His vet techs, Detroit Dog Rescue and foster family love to remind us how sweet, patient and full of love he was throughout his rescue and healing. He's about 40lbs heavier now but that love and sweetness is still there. Everyone's best friend and bundle of snuggles: Chan Man McMuffin."

I can clearly remember the day when I was first notified that I had been offered a position as an Australian Youth Ambassador. It was early June, and at that stage I was working voluntarily at a paediatric medical centre in Sai Gon. I enjoyed my work in Viet Nam immensely, so much so that I had applied to the Australian Youth Ambassadors' Program so I could continue to work towards the betterment of children's health in Asia. And where better to do this than Nepal, the land of the mighty mountains, monasteries and momos. I was no less than ecstatic - Nepal here I come!
Time has flown, and I have now been in Nepal for almost four months. Despite the short duration of my stay to date, I have been exposed to a myriad of wonderfully exciting and inspiring cultural experiences. I will fondly look back on these times forever. However, as time passes and my understanding of the social and political situation of the country broadens, the more my concern for the welfare of the Nepali child grows.
My role as an Australian Youth Ambassador sees me based in Nepalgunj in the mid west where, alongside my counterparts at Social Awareness for Education (SAFE), I am working towards improving the quality of life of the Badi children, members of an untouchable Hindu caste who are, for the greater part, born into a life of poverty and prostitution. The current state of conflict is severely disrupting the functioning of the Badi community, which for the children means being denied access to many basic rights of life such as nutritious food, medicine, shelter and quality education. Forced migration to India, recruitment as child soldiers, sexual abuse and exploitation and exposure to violence resulting in severe psychological trauma are also major concerns for SAFE and myself.
With the financial and technical assistance of Save the Children, SAFE has recently been able to begin implementing a project for the "children in conflict". Based on the principles of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, this project aims to mitigate the impact of the current situation by protecting child rights and creating opportunities for development of children and families affected by the armed conflict. A wide array of activities are planned including the provision of emergency medical care, food and shelter, establishment of a community based counseling service and socialisation centre, increased access to education facilities and infrastructure support for schools, and an awareness raising and advocacy campaign promoting children as a "Zone of Peace".
The situation in the field makes progress quite slow, but already several children have been identified as being 'at-risk' and steps are being taken to improve their immediate living circumstances. The past few months have also given me the opportunity to witness the fighting spirit of the Badi children shine through, offering hope and reassurance for the future of these young survivors.
Working as a Youth Ambassador has enabled me to better understand the realities of life in Nepal through the eyes of the local children, a perspective I could never fully appreciate by being a tourist alone. My only wish is that through my work at SAFE I can somehow make the lives of the Badi children more meaningful and peaceful despite these trying times.

A new investigation has found that around half of dads who have accepted their parental leave allocation have been discriminated against in the workplace.
The research aimed to assess the impact that the Government's new parental policy – Shared Parental Leave (SPL) was having on fathers in the workplace.
SPL was introduced by the Government in 2015 to allow parents to share up to 50 weeks of leave and 37 weeks of statutory pay between them after the birth of a child.
Leave is taken during the first year after the child is born and can be taken in blocks or all in one go, with parents also having the choice of being off together or staggering the leave and pay.
It was designed to allow couples to split child-caring roles more equally. However, many men are facing discrimination for taking this time off.
The research found that a quarter of fathers were the subject of verbal abuse or mockery after taking time off to look after their child.
On top of that more than a third of new dads claimed their career suffered negatively after, exercising their right to parental leave. The data showed 17 per cent of these people suffered job losses and 20 per cent received a demotion.
Last year only 9,200 new parents took shared parental leave, one per cent of those eligible to do it.
The TUC believes that many don't participate as the scheme is so poorly paid at just (£145.18) per week, making it unaffordable for most fathers. On top of this many agency, zero-hour contract and self-employed workers are not eligible for the shared leave.

Any idea where I can buy a 2x16 (or similar) LCD screen I can attach to my HTPC so I can display some information while the TV is off? (song playing etc).
Jaycar/Mindkits have only the LCD screen and while I don't mind some soldering I would prefer a solution that's already built and looks reasonably good.
Any ideas where I can get one? Ordering from overseas is not a problem if I can't find it here.
Edit: Thinking more about this, it's likely that a 4" (7"?) photo frame that has some USB client functionality might do the trick just fine.

NEBAG Newsletter December 2013
With Christmas almost upon us time to review current issues and news.
The AGM will be held as last year at Hexham Golf Club on Sunday 26 January 2014 at 2pm. The Agenda and last year's Minutes will be sent out prior to the meeting and we hope most members will be able to attend and contribute. As last year a meal will be available from 12:30 at the Clubhouse at a cost of approximately £12 per head. This was very popular last year and gave members the chance to meet and chat before the AGM.
2. VET TALK 8 December 2013
David Parkins of Intake Vets gave an excellent illustrated talk at Wall Village Hall to 14 members, many of whom were new to NEBAG. The lively question and answer session carried on afterwards at the Hadrian Hotel over lunch and the odd drink and was enjoyed by all.
The northern circuit of alpaca shows at NWAG Carlisle, Northumberland, Westmorland and the Yorkshire Group Show at Thirsk were all very well attended by NEBAG members with a high degree of success and championships won. Full results are available on the BAS website. The Northumberland County Show organized by NEBAG was at the new venue at Bywell in a beautiful parkland setting. The alpaca tent was centrally located and as usual proved very popular throughout the day. Nick Harrington-Smith judged with Barbara Hetherington ably apprenticing and the Championship went to a worthy winner Beck Brow Explorer. In 2014 we are having a larger marquee to allow a bigger entry. Put it in your diary for Bank Holiday Monday 26 May 2014. The Futurity at the NEC was the largest Alpaca Show in Europe with almost 450 alpacas in the halter classes. NEBAG members Barnacre, Beck Brow, Fallowfield, Fowberry and Nero Black entered animals with great success ,proving you do not need to have a large herd to be successful. Unfortunately there is no Futurity planned for 2014 but may return in 2015.
Traditionally the National Show has been held in the south of England making it particularly challenging to attend for alpaca breeders in the North. This year a new committee led by Barbara Hetherington is organizing the event with a team including Melanie Douglas and with Paul Vaclik doing the website so NEBAG members are heavily involved. The venue selected is the International Centre at Telford in Shropshire TF3 4JH which has excellent facilities and easy access from the M6 and M54. It has been a challenge getting the BAS Board to accept this "northern" venue and it is in all our interests to make this show a success by supporting it. We have fewer breeders in the north but have some fabulous alpacas and we always punch well above our weight when we attend national competitions so put this in your diaries and let's show them!
Nick Harrington-Smith will be judging the halter classes in tandem with top Australian judge Jenny Jackson providing a balanced international evaluation. The fleece show will be judged by Rob Bettinson and Mary-Jo Smith. An excellent programme of wide ranging seminars will be held on the Saturday followed by a champagne reception and Gala Dinner. The BAS AGM will be held on the Friday evening. Even if you do not enter animals make the effort to attend what will be a great event closer to home than usual !
Best wishes and Happy Christmas,
Mike Douglas – Chairman NEBAG

This isn't JUST Pilates...this is "uber-Pilates," this is Pilates like-you've-never-felt-before Pilates. Sarah is a master at what she does. I didn't think I would see results going once a week (I used to do Pilates group classes 2 and 3 times a week!), but she is amazing. After a few years of not working out (not even my usual walks) Sarah is helping me rediscover my core and waking up muscles I didn't know I had (GOOOD Morning!). She ignores age, complaints :-), excuses, and keeps pressing on. In a good, fun, exacting way. I feel amazing!

Ryan has great energy and really knows his stuff. He combines resistance training and aerobic exercises with traditional pilates to keep things fast and fun. The pilates really helps me feel strong the next day - instead of just sore.
Rashi, early 30's
I recently moved to Sherman Oaks and stumbled upon Gazelle Pilates online. I booked private sessions with Sarah and I've been so grateful for her teachings. I'm new to Pilates so I came in with zero experience. Sarah was so patient with me, allowing me to learn at my own pace and also helping my body through some challenging yet necessary training. She has an eye for proper technique and posture, making sure I'm mindful of the areas I'm trying to engage. Her energy is warm, positive, and motivating. She's provided me with tips that I can utilize outside of the studio, which I am so grateful for! Looking forward to training again in the near future- thank you, Sarah!
Rashi is also one of the owners and founders

Ed Roberts, Activist
Jeff Moyer's Story and Memories of the 504 Demonstration and Rally in Front of the San Francisco Federal Building
My name is Jeff Moyer. I became a student at the University of California at Berkeley in 1973 because a California junior college counselor told me I should aim high and that I had grades good enough to get in. When I got to Berkeley, I discovered the Physically Disabled Students Program, the first in the world, and I met its founder, Ed Roberts. Ed instantly taught me about the symbiosis and power that people with different disabilities can have when working together. Ed would play an increasingly important part in my life as the years went on.
But the Physically Disabled Students' Program services, such as the Blind Students' Study in the campus main undergraduate library and reader referral, would enable me, for the first time, to study easily on campus and then to be tested on my knowledge, not my vision. It was thrilling and liberating and, after I applied myself rigorously to my studies, I graduated Phi Beta Kappa. Because of the many students with disabilities that I met through Ed's program, I also became politicized concerning disability.
After graduation, I went to work for Ed Roberts at the Center for Independent Living (CIL), another program he was seminal in starting. Ed asked me to serve on an advisory committee at the University of San Francisco. I didn't think I could handle the responsibility, but Ed did. He believed in me before I believed in myself.
At the CIL, I ultimately became Deputy Director, a position I held when the 504 Demonstration was being planned. I remembered the lessons of the Civil Rights movement, during which I had cut my teeth as a political musician. I re-wrote some Civil Rights songs and went to the Demonstration with a rented bullhorn and my guitar. At the end of the demonstration and rally in front of the San Francisco Federal Building, Ed Roberts spoke to the assembled protesters, and then I sang the song that would become the theme for the demonstration, "Hold On."
That became the longest occupation of a Federal building in U.S. history Over one hundred people with disabilities, parents of kids with disabilities, and non-disabled supporters staged an unexpected civil disobedience action that has remained an unsung chapter of America's Civil right's legacy.
The demonstration's purpose was to press the Carter administration to fulfill a pledge of his candidacy. He promised to sign drafted regulations for Section 504 of The Rehabilitation Act of 1973 that had languished without regulations for over three years. The Rehab Act was passed over President Nixon's veto but Section 504 was the controversial piece of the law, promising Americans with disabilities an end to discrimination in education, employment and services from organizations using Federal money. It met opposition from hospitals, universities and schools.
We all entered the building and ultimately settled in for the duration until regulations were signed. For 28 days, the demonstrators lived on the sixth floor of the Federal building to pressure the Carter Administration to sign the promised regulations. I was not one of the heroic scores of people who lived within the difficult circumstances of the Federal building full time, I commuted back and forth to the demonstration in order to fulfill my responsibilities at home to my wife and infant son. But thoughts of that monumental accomplishment come to mind this month as we celebrate Ed Roberts Day.
Ed didn't stay at the Demonstration at all, he was very busy in Sacramento with his job as head of the California Rehabilitation Department. I stayed several nights and I recall helping to get Hale, a man with severe cerebral palsy out of his wheel chair and bedded down on the hard carpeted floor. We became a community supporting each other in genuine and humble ways.
Today, the broad-reaching Americans With Disabilities Act is grounded in the principles of Section 504. Our society has become more inclusive although we have a long way to go. My own brother Mark, who has severe cognitive disabilities, has been a bellwether of that change. He has moved from a hideous institution, where he languished in the most violent conditions from 1963 to 1981, to supported living thanks to the progress of law and my own advocacy. In many ways, Ed Roberts set the stage for Mark's life change, which would not have been possible without the 504 Demonstration. Thanks also to those brave individuals whose tenacity and personal sacrifice 36 years ago have helped to make a more just society for all of us.
In 1981, a British film crew went to the San Francisco Bay Area to record a documentary on the U.S. Disability Rights Movement that would air on the BBC. I was working at Telesensory System Inc, a Silicon Valley company which was developing the state-of-the-art of assistive technology for individuals who were blind and for those who could not speak. The synthetic speech we were developing would ultimately become the voice of Dr. Stephen Hawkins.
I was asked by the film crew to go back with the others to re-live the demonstration. During the filming, I went back to the stairwell, towering seven marble stories, and sang songs from the demonstration. I had used that stairwell technique during the demonstration because I hoped that a lot of Federal employees would hear the lyrics and understand our purpose in disrupting the Office of Civil Rights and the Office of Health, Education and Welfare with our sit-in.
The stairwell gave a natural "reverb" to my performance. Sometimes I would stand in front of the main doors to the building at early morning or at five o'clock and sing to the employees as they came or went from work. During the sit-in, sometimes I would sing in the stairwell. At other times I would sing to employees as they came and went from work, or walk around the corridors of the vast Federal Building singing and playing, with other demonstrators joining in. It was a moment in history that really changed the world. I am still singing songs of Disability Rights and social justice. Music works.

A bit of sage advice: If your style needs serious (but not stiff) hold, scoop up a tube of this botanical-based cream. Whatever look we're going for, this styling cream gives firm but flexible hold—meaning our hair stays touchably soft, and stays in place even if we touch it. And unlike some products that deposit dulling residues on hair, this one moisturizes strands and boosts shine, leaving hair looking great even on days you don't style it.
Ive used this sample almost everyday mainly because it made my hair smell so good.... it has an AMAZINGLY good smell. My only issue with it is, other than act as a leave in conditioner, my hair still requires some holdability and the cream just won't do it for my hair. In a nutshell, if i had hair that could benefit from this, I would buy this in a heartbeat. Note: if your not familiar with hair creme or don't normally use it, its probably not going to work for you either.3
I'm going with with a more natural look with my hair so I don't want it looking like I'm using anything. This fit the bill. Found the hold a bit lacking, but it was decent - certainly not firm. But maybe I didn't use enough. I would consider buying it, as I did like it, but I'm using another product that works better for me.4

Dissolution: Make It Work!
Dissolution, No. 1 Requirement: Cooperation
Proceeding first with a dissolution is often the first request of many clients – most likely because it is the cheaper option. However, if the couple cannot conceive cooperating with each other, divorce is likely the better option.
For a dissolution to work, the parties must be sufficiently prepared and willing to work together. This includes permitting the informal exchange of all information regarding the parties children, assets and liabilities, and facilitating the same. Efficient exchange of documentation and information is the key to keeping costs low, which is one of the primary benefits of a dissolution.
For both parties, cooperation towards the goal of separating must be top priority.

Lots of people cannot find jobs. This is because society only educates and trains its citizens to enter into established areas of employment—called "fields."
It seems that jobs in these fields are drying up and a growing population of people are caught in a pinch. The pinch is that we all find ourselves in a world that is almost impossible to live in without money. But it is self-evident that this physical world that we are clinging to is temporary and we will all be dead within a seven or eight decade time-span.
God did not design us for living in such a limited sphere. We were each individually created with the divine gift of being able to perform some special use in the universe. But this specialness must be coaxed out of us and touch our soul because it will determine our place in the spiritual realm of eternity. This rare kind of on-the-job training comes with taking our spiritual growth seriously. Only through spiritual growth can our inner potentials be recognized and released.
Our challenge on this finite earth is to temporarily monetize our spiritual gifts. That is, through creativity, we must convince others that what we offer will benefit others enough that they will pay us for it. How else can mutual love enter human life but through one's valued utility?
I'm lucky. God gave me the gift of writing. As an author I can write about what I want and continue to do it past the age of retirement. I did pay my dues—having worked for others most of my life and even doing various odd and physical jobs when I was a young man. Eventually I succeeded in becoming a vice president and Creative Director of an advertising agency. But none of these occupations touched my soul. In fact, I often rebelled at these earthly work-choices (regardless of salary). But I could still write!
My father wanted me to become a dentist. As someone who grew up in the Great Depression, he recognized that such a career would likely bring me a degree of financial success. For a long time he was worried about my not taking the sure and beaten path. (But he loved sports and became a physical education teacher and high school coach—so he was doing what he loved. Later he saw that I could make a living doing what I loved.)
But times are becoming more challenging.
I think over time, worsening conditions will force people to reach deeper inside themselves and re-invent their worldview and value to society. Marketing studies say this is already beginning to happen with younger generations. Doing what one loves from sincerity and from one's spiritual conscience is the essence of true happiness and allows heaven to operate within you.
I know this is difficult when there is rent or a mortgage hanging over your head but you may have previously bought into an earthly paradigm that is not sustainable. I believe that a part of the Lord's "Second Coming" will be to shake-up and challenge the current worldview as to why we are really here on this planet!

Invicta 8926 Review
Invicta 8926 Pro Diver- sophisticated, durable and automatic! These three words perfectly describe the watch but are less for the multiple functions that it does.
Whether it's a black tie affair or a day in the great outdoors, the masculine, stylish design and durable technology, makes this automatic-winding Invicta watch an ideal timepiece. This is big in its size and is an affordable luxury watch with classically styled features.
Automatic "Movement"
Automatic watch means no batteries. These are made up of about 130 or more parts that work together to tell time. Automatic movements mark the passage of time by a series of gear mechanisms, and are wound by the movement of your wrist as you wear it. This means, if you stop wearing it for long, it will stop working.
These are also referred to as self-winding watches with automatic movements that utilize kinetic energy to provide energy to an oscillating rotor to keep the watch ticking. These are accurate and hassle-free.
Invicta "Dial"
This accurately constructed Invicta timepiece for men features a solid stainless steel case that's 40mm wide. Black face with luminous hands and markers looks very manly. A big Invicta branding can be seen right below 12'o clock.
Unidirectional black bezel also features white numerals and markings. Even one end of the seconds hand also flaunts the brand as it's made in the shape of logo. With its most inspired creations yet, Invicta demonstrates it's technical and design prowess, offering timepieces of style for extreme value.
Mineral crystal which is a kind of hardened glass protects the watch. It is much more scratch resistant than acrylic and also somewhat better at shatter resistance compared with sapphire.
Stainless Steel "Band"
The stainless steel band features highly-polished center links, and is secured by a fold over clasp with safety. It takes years of training and a great deal of pride to achieve glorious Swiss timepieces by hand. But it takes guts and the courage of your convictions to make those timepieces affordable for everyone who appreciates them.
Invicta does it all for you. Stainless steel offers strength and durability and as we all use steel in or the other form, we know that it's anti-corrosive too.
Key features
- Name: Invicta 8926 Pro Diver
- Movement: Japanese automatic
- Band: Stainless steel
- Special Features: Water resistant, unidirectional bezel
Full list of awesome features here!
With each new timepiece, the company sends up a flare for those looking to be defined not by how much they spend, but how wisely they spend. As far as the price is concerned, existing owners love the feature that it offers. With its strong design, the gutsy watch is guaranteed to attract people around you.

My camera hates this purple! It refuses to render it, as it is. I have tried multiple settings and cannot captures its true loveliness. Its so vibrant, shiny, and it is VIOLET! Not blue. Sunlight would perhaps be a good place to start, however, I am nocturnal. It is far more rich, deep, and shiny.
This photo shows the finish and depth, but look much too blue.

It might feel like the last thing you want to do, but exercising while you're pregnant can help alleviate stress, reduce pregnancy pains such as nausea, fatigue and backaches, and prepare your body and mind for giving birth. Maintaining a healthy exercise routine throughout pregnancy can also help you get back into shape post-partum.
Here are some easy-to-follow exercises for each of the three trimesters:
First Trimester
Speed Walk – Walking is an exercise you can do throughout pregnancy. During the first trimester, pick up the pace and work up to a brisk walk for 20 – 30 minutes three to five days a week. Be sure to wear comfortable walking shoes that support your ankles and arches.
Braced Squat – Hold a weight (whatever weight you're comfortable with) with both of your hands, arms stretched out in front of your chest. Lower your body as far as you can, bending your knees while keeping your legs at a 90 degree angle and the weight of your body on the ankles. Pause and return to starting position. Do two sets of 12 reps.
Downward Facing Dog – Get the blood flowing and stretch out your body with this yoga pose. On a mat or towel, get on all fours, tuck under your toes, and lift your hips up. Press into the mat firmly with your hands, fingers outstretched. Keep your head down and relaxed and your pelvis pulled in and back. Hold for five to eight breaths. Lower down and repeat two more times.
Second Trimester
Stationary Bike – warm-up for five minutes by pedaling at a medium speed. Increase your speed to a rate that gets your heart moving, but one that you're comfortable at. Pedal at this rate for two minutes. Lower your intensity to just below your warm-up speed for two minutes. Follow this set four to six times.
Upright Row – Stand with your legs hip-width apart (or sit in an upright chair). Hold weights in your hands with arms hanging down to your sides. While exhaling, slowly lift your weights, bringing them together to just under your chin. Inhale and lower to your starting point. Repeat 20 times.
Cat Stretch Pose – This yoga stretch helps to improve posture and balance, stretches the hips and back, and helps calm the mind. On a mat or towel, get onto your hands and knees. Make sure your knees are hip-width apart. As you exhale, round your spine towards the ceiling while keeping your shoulders and knees in position. Inhale and return to starting position.
Third Trimester
The Pendulum Cross – This is an exercise you can do in your backyard or community centre pool. Get into the water (shallow end), and stand with your feet hip-width apart. Place your hands on your hips and pull your belly in (as much as you can). Swing your right leg out to the right and then to the left while swinging your arms in the opposite direction in front of you. Switch to the other side. Do 10 reps.
Plie Squat – Using the back of a chair for balance, stand with your feet slightly more than shoulder-width apart, legs turned out at the hips. Keep your shoulders relaxed and your abdominal muscles contracted. While inhaling and keeping a straight posture, bend at the knees. Hold. Exhale and return to starting position. Repeat 10 times.
Warrior Pose – This yoga pose helps build stamina while relieving back aches and energizing tired limbs. Start with your feet more than shoulder-width apart, and arms at your side. Turn your right foot outwards to 90 degrees while keeping your back straight and your face forward. Raise your arms sideways to shoulder height. Keep your palms facing down and your shoulders relaxed. Keep your head facing in the direction of your outstretched arm. While exhaling, bend your right knee as far as you can. Keep your left leg straight and extended. Remain in this position as long as you're able to while focusing on your breathing.
Exercise during pregnancy has many benefits, both physically and mentally. Of course, it's important to discuss with your obstetrician before you start any workout program. And always be sure to listen to your body while doing any exercises. Don't push yourself and rest when you need to.

Ronald Wheelock has felt the impact of Sara Anne Wood's disappearance from many angles.
As superintendent of Sara Anne's home district, the Sauquoit Valley Central School District, he's helped prepare students when the Ride for Missing Children of Central New York stops at the school. Although today's children never knew Sara Anne, they hear her story.
"For us at Sauquoit Valley, I think, we feel that we're preserving Sara Anne's memory and recognizing the impact that she had on saving young lives across the nation," he said.
When Sara Anne disappeared, Wheelock was teaching in Watertown, but as an area native, he followed the story. And he worried about young cousins who lived within 5 miles of the spot where Sara Anne was abducted, he said.
"You never think something can happen until it happens," he said.
And for the past six years, Wheelock has bicycled in the ride.
"As a ride, it is an amazing feeling to ride in and feel all that energy (in the schools the ride visits)," he said. "It's a great show of awareness and to continue to push that awareness."
The ride, he said, is about hope. Everyone hears stories from families who recovered loved ones, Wheelock said. Not everyone has come home, but those stories bring hope, he said.

The p-Zombie is a philosophical construct mainly attributed to David Chalmers, and used by times in debates about consciousness studies, to which your blogger has occasionally contributed. Briefly, the argument I think goes like this:
Imagine an entity indistinguishably different from a human being. It looks like one, walks and talks like one, reacts like one - there is no way of telling it's not a human. But it's not, it's a Zombie, without "qualia" or real human consciousness. The argument, to simplify, says that if you can imagine such a being, then you accept that the essence of human consciousness, perhaps the mind or "soul", is NOT a product of the biological machine, but something else.
The argument is supposed to undermine those of us (but then I would say that, being a Zombie) who would argue that there is no mystery, no "soul"-like thing, no mind-body split. Or rather, that the way in which consciousness, awareness, mind, emerges from the biological, chemical being, is already enough of a mystery, and very beautiful.
Really, in keeping with certain critics of this argument ("It's so bad, it's not even wrong...") what I should really do is to assert that:
(a) This argument is true, and
(b) I am a Zombie.
For I would argue that in a useful way (useful for art, artificial intelligence, relationships and so on) it's possible to assert that we are all Zombies, just, you know... pretending. Bear in mind that such Zombies are quite capable of reflecting on their Zombie/Human status.
Then let us pretend well, as if we really meant it.
'Pataphysics is the science of imaginary solutions, and is to metaphysics what metaphysics is to physics. The Paris-based College de 'Pataphysique, in which I have the honour to hold the Chair of Catachemistry and Computational Metallurgy, is more or less like Freemasons on LSD, though with far, far more bureaucracy, consisting in an all-embracing, devious network of sub-committees, and quite a lot of wining and dining. It is, however, a deeply serious institution, and numbers or has numbered many illustrious avantgardists, scientists, philosophers and writers amongst its members, from Marcel Duchamp, Raymond Queneau, Boris Vian, Max Ernst, Eugene Ionesco and Georges Perec to the Marx Brothers, Dario Fo, Fernando Arrabal, Umberto Eco and Jean Baudrillard. It is also the umbrella organisation not only of OuLiPo, the Potential Literature Workshop, but also of OuPeinPo for art, and various other "OuXPo" in the realms of comic strips, music, cuisine, crime fiction and so on.
OuPeinPo, of which I am a member, exists to offer ways of using constraints in art to other artists and the general public. We don't, as a group, make art per se, but rather illustrate the methods, constraints and systems we discover, invent or celebrate.
The question then arises, where can you find or how can you make neutral, value-free images etc., to be the raw material for these processes? The answer is to assert, as we do, that all the images we use were originally the result of Zombie endeavour, and hence have no real qualities inherent in them. You can read into them what you yourself like, but that's just your choice - the actual work had none.
It is possible to assert that all art, of any kind, in any field, is Zombie.
More later. And, if you have been, thanks for looking.

The hospitality industry is in charge of additional tasks than almost any other company in the United States http://www.hotelcareers.in. There are actually thousands of projects available all over the world in intriguing and unique locations. The incomes are not regularly high by the standards of other professions, yet the plentiful amounts of tasks is actually an additionally. Employees are able to enter the work force with very little education and learning, in some cases less than high school qualifications. This suggests the wages as a group are at the low side of the range.
Given that there are lots of kinds of capabilities that vary coming from project to task, the earnings degrees can differ dramatically likewise. A frontal workdesk staff at a resort lodging could gain greater than a member of the housekeeping staff, yet less than a bookkeeper at the same resort. Waitresses might earn essentially than hosts at the restaurants. The quantity of tips and also gratuities obtained by waitresses and waitress may make a major various in the quantity of earnings.
A lot of tasks in the field imply helping a company. The jobs may be work schedule work and also may feature weekend break job as well as holiday season job. For some folks, this creates the job much less eye-catching. Others examine the odds to function in areas where the public merely checks out while on vacation. Some settings in the sector get extra as a result of the added training called for. A fine example is actually that of a gourmet chef at a well-known restaurant. This takes a period of training in addition to the capability to work under frequently difficult circumstances. Good experienced or even authorized cooks may regulate a much higher income than other company personnel around a restaurant.
Trip tasks are actually great for those that just like to become on the move. There are actually lots of forms of sector projects in the trip group. You may work as a stewardess on a global jet trip or even as a travel agent operating your personal service. Aiding folks reach and also from the airport or even other traveling implies is yet another form of friendliness project. A tourist guide might be salaried or even may set up concentrated scenic tours for visitors to the area in which the employees live. Friendliness job pay is connected carefully to instruction and also college criteria. The individual with greater or even more complete credentials will certainly make more than the part time senior high school pupil looking for an after institution job. Career earnings might be improved by means of the addition of bonus offers and perks to the routine payday.

As with the rest the most significant part of any woodwork project is planning. It's necessary that you punctiliously plan the entire project so you can make sure that the entire project will become successful. Planning can also make woodworking projects faster and less expensive than they might otherwise be. Newbs will find this especially handy. This is good for evening out the colour divergences in the wood.
It's when they're applied to the wood the chemical action takes place. The second bleach : Is chlorine bleach and is used to take away the dye stains left in wood .The household chlorine we use for clothing isn't as strong as the brand utilised for woodworking nevertheless it can be employed but will need a few applications. After you have used any bleaching process you need to stop the chemical reaction. Not everybody nonetheless, feels that woodworking / woodworking is for them. They may be entirely aware of their constraints, or may realize that while they're talented in one area, this isn't it. If one thinks that she could have this 'hidden talent', one way that this is often discovered is by the purchase of a 'prefab' kit.
these folks will willingly hire the services of a contractor, someone that is considered to be an expert or pro. As for dust collectors, those items are the ones that are made use of to collect sawdust, chips and grainy and shaving materials. These sorts of apparatus are favored when they have the capacity to control the depth of the mortise or hole set on the wood. Applications of woodworking tools apart from the common home enhancements and house repairs, there are more applications where woodworking machinery is being employed. Typically , they're used so as to build materials coming from the same part with different sizes and shapes. We all know this wood intarsia art form all but disappeared for quite a time period and was revived by a woman named Judy Storm Roberts. True intarsia woodworking requires various woods of different colours, the usage of these colours, grain structure and direction make gorgeous ornamental photographs from wood. Lots of the ideas about intarsia wood that we have today were first advised by this woman. No paint or stain is used to change any intarsia wood colour, just wood from various wood species give the different colours.

Ready to get a new air conditioning system in Gaithersburg? The Experts at Parker Pearce Service Experts have you covered from the beginning to the end of the process.
We'll help you determine which quality system is right for your home—and wallet—including energy-efficient and high-efficiency models.
Is your central air conditioner…
More than 8 years old? It could be running much less efficiently than up-to-date units. A new air conditioner can help you save on your electricity bill. And one reasonable monthly payment may be lower than continuous service calls for the old one.
More than 15 years old? Repairs are often higher and more persistent. This is due to parts deteriorating and R22 refrigerant being eliminated.
Also known as Freon, this cooling chemical is believed to be one of the worst offenders in ozone reduction. Newer units are cooled by Puron, which has an ozone depletion rating of zero. It also ranked slightly better on energy-efficiency studies than R22.
Modern air conditioners from Parker Pearce Service Experts are energy efficient—meaning you'll likely see energy savings, even on hot days in Gaithersburg.
When you take into account our great financing options and the likelihood of annual savings, a new energy-efficient cooling system may be more economical than you think.
Additionally, a new air conditioning unit from Parker Pearce Service Experts is accompanied by a free membership plan which will give you a head start on routine tune-ups. Regular maintenance may extend the life of your AC system and limit the need for costly repairs.
Our Expert professionals have achieved NATE status, which is the highest certification in the industry.
You can trust their expertise when it comes to putting in a new cooling system.
Additionally, you can expect they'll leave your home and yard looking like it did before they arrived. They'll also thoroughly look over your new system to make sure it's running properly before they leave.
We are sure you'll be happy with their quality work, which is backed by our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee for a year.*
Start by requesting a free comfort analysis and consultation. Rely on the Experts at Parker Pearce Service Experts when you need to replace your AC system in Gaithersburg.

Click either photo for the gallery. While there were lots of 'bandwagon' rioters, kicking a car / garbage can along the way, the scary thing is there were people that purposely came prepared to riot, win or lose, with masks, tear gas, knives, and other weapons packed. They're $#*! disturbers; people that see an opportunity to cause destruction and then escape into a crowd, hopeful of not getting caught.
It's a shame that image is portrayed onto the citizens of Vancouver as a whole.

Nvidia RTX 2080 and RTX 2080 Ti Review
Up Close
Published: 19th September 2018 | Source: nVidia | Price: £749 and £1099 Respectively |
Up Close
Both cards look very similar in the flesh, so we'll try and give you a few different angles of both cards so that you can see them together without too much duplication.
RTX 2080Ti
Yes we've finally dispensed with the wheezy blower at one end of the card and instead have two full size fans keeping the guts of the card cool. The use of reflective name plates also lets the card look just as good when it's off as it does when it's on. It might seem a little bland here, just silver and black, but there is an understated subtlety to it which is very pleasing and really comes alive when it's powered up, as we'll see on the next page.
It's fair to say that the cooler shroud looks good from every angle. The combination of light silver with black accents is really aesthetically pleasing.
With Tensor Cores, RT Cores and staggering amounts of CUDA Cores to keep powered it is no surprise that the RTX 2080Ti comes equipped with 8+8 pin PCIe power inputs.
Having big fans and vapour chambers is all well and good but you need a high fin density to make the most of those elements. Thankfully the nVidia R&D team have pulled out all the stops and produced something which will definitely keep your card cool as we'll see in our testing on subsequent pages.
Just like the RTX 2080Ti the new cooler looks just as lovely on the RTX 2080. The combination of silver and black is perfect for our modern RGB systems and will let it blend into any setup you fancy.
Given that the backplate is the part of the card you see the most - unless your tower is on a high shelf of course - it's nice to see that backplates have become a staple of high end cards, and the RTX range really looks the business with a brushed finish but enough chrome on the model number to reflect the RGB lighting in your system, as we'll see on the next page.
After years of putting a blower at one end of the card it's so lovely to see two big fans on the RTX cards. We really like the reflective model number in the middle of a sea of black too.
The RTX 2080Ti utilises 8+8 power but the slightly lower specced RTX 2080 has a more usual 8+6 setup. You can also see how finely tooled the surround is. Very sleek.
nVidia have dispensed with the DVI-D adaptor fully on the RTX 20 series, and instead we have three DisplayPort 1.4a ports, an HDMI 2.0b and a USB Type-C. The HDMI supports 4K @ 60Hz whilst the DisplayPort can handle 8K @ 60Hz. Proof, if proof were needed, that high resolution is the future of displays, rather than the gimmickry of 3D and similar technologies.
Most Recent Comments
So at 1440P it's a 10-20FPS gain over a 1080 Ti, About what I expected to be honest, Definitely not worth 1100 quid though.
So at 1440P the 2080 Ti is a 10-20FPS gain over a 1080 Ti, About what I expected to be honest, Definitely not worth 1100 quid though.

Embattled Taita Taveta Governor Granton Samboja got a reprieve after high court temporarily suspended the decision by the County Assembly to impeach him.
Justice James Makau issued the orders barring the speaker of Taita Taveta County from submitting to the senate the resolution recommending the impeachment of the governor.
Pending inter-parties hearing of this Application, a Conservatory Order is hereby issued, staying the Resolution of the 1st Respondent to the Senate passed on the 9th October, 2019 recommending the impeachment of the Petitioner by the Senate.
In the court documents filed by the governor, Samboja argues that the entire process of impeachment by the Respondents was done so discreetly and that he got to know of it on 9th October, 2019 during the evening news on one of the Television Studios in Kenya.
Through lawyer Nelson Havi the governor argues that in passing the Resolution, the Respondents failed to adhere to the mandatory procedure for the impeachment of the Governor as provided by the Standing Orders.
He says that during the presentation, debate and the approval of the Motion, he was not given a chance to make any representation on the allegations made in the Motion.
Two days ago all the 30 MCAs voted to impeach Samboja in a special sitting convened after a Motion by Deputy Majority leader Harris Keke.
The case will be mentioned on the 28th of this month

Many people I've been speaking to lately have developed an interest in trading scrap metal for cash. There aren't too many decent resources for how to go about doing this online and so I've spent some time doing my own reading and have pulled together some of the best resources online for you to read. Do let us know if you have any questions about anything on these websites and we will do our best to help you out. Scrap metal prices across the world are in continual flux, it is notoriously difficult to pull together accurate prices for any one place at any one time. The websites that I have listed below try to provide exactly that, broken down as an average across the entire country, but also across all of the constituent cities.
Good Resources
Scrap Metal Prices (Worldwide)
Scrap Metal Prices UK
Scrap Metal Prices Canada
Additional Information
LKM Recycling: "Scrap metal prices are constantly changing as scrap metal is a commodity that acts in the same way as oil or any other natural resource. The price will fluctuate based on supply and demand, currency changes and other factors. There are various types and also various grades of metal that will all fetch different prices in the UK market. UK scrap metal prices fluctuate daily, so its often difficult to establish an estimated figure of what your scrap metal is worth. To help you price your metal please see our pricing tables with our current listings to give you an idea of today's scrap metal prices. If you need help classifying your metal then please get in touch "

Marketing Trends Watch 2019—PART 6: Tactics at the Tipping Point
Thursday, August 2, 2018 Categories: Marketing Trends
As we wrap up our series on marketing trends that brands should keep their eyes on as planning begins for 2019, we take a look at what's next, including three marketing tactics that are close to or at the tipping point.
The first is Apps as Everyday Necessities. Much more than cool features, apps are now necessities for driving, checking the weather, online shopping and a lot more. For 2019, brands should consider what might be a useful and necessary app within their industries.
The second is Augmented Reality. Finding ways to use augmented reality and make it relevant to your target audiences is a real opportunity. Think about brands that use AR to place furniture in a room in your house so that you can see how a new chair or sofa would look before you purchase it. Other AR opportunities exist as a way to show products not yet available or to show the features of high-end products that retailers may not be able to stock.
The third tactic is Non-Visual Experiences, especially voice-activated devices. Research shows that by 2022, 55 percent of U.S. households will have a voice-activated device. So, rather than changing the television channel with a remote, we'll ask Alexa to change it.
Hear more about these marketing tactics from Jackson CMO David Jones:
