At 31 years old, Katy Nelson was taking a shower one day when she noticed an abnormal lump in her breast.
Her husband, Jason, encouraged her to make an appointment with her doctor, even though she didn't have health insurance at the time. She walked away from the appointment with a script for a mammogram but few options for how to pay for it.
"We're walking out to the car and a nurse came running out and gave us a pamphlet about the Race Against Breast Cancer," Nelson said.
The Race Against Breast Cancer is a nonprofit that provides women in Shawnee County and the surrounding area with financial assistance to pay for screening and diagnostic mammograms. To date, RABC has funded over 9,000 mammograms in more than 10 northeast Kansas counties. The organization's mission is to improve health through education, access, early detection, screening and breast health awareness.
Nelson had a mammogram on a Tuesday, and by Thursday, the mother of four young children was in surgery to remove a fast-growing, aggressive strain of cancer, followed by experimental chemotherapy treatment to keep the cancer at bay.
"You go to collections to pay for your medication to keep you alive and raise your four children and be a wife to your husband," Nelson said. "The hospitals say they will put you on a plan, but who can afford $900 a month in medical bills? I would have had insurance at that point if I'd been able to afford that."
Jason Nelson owns Collaborative Technologies, a computer support and services business in Topeka. Small business owners often find it difficult to carry health coverage while getting their businesses off the ground because of the high cost of private insurance. The RABC eased a part of the Nelsons' financial burden and made possible the mammogram needed to catch Katy Nelson's cancer early.
"At first, I was embarrassed that I needed help," she said. "I never told my story until about four years ago when I ran into a woman at church, and she was really down because she was getting ready to have breast surgery. It was the first time I'd ever told anyone my story."
Nelson felt empowered to continue sharing her story after seeing how it helped other women with breast cancer feel less alone. Despite fighting cancer twice more since her initial diagnosis in 2007, Nelson has worked tirelessly to promote breast cancer fundraising and education.
She began volunteering with the RABC eight years ago and has served on the board of directors for six of those years. This year, she is organizing the 27th annual 5K Run/Walk and Pink Out Fun Run at Topeka West High School, which will be held Sept. 28 and 29.
"The first year I did the race, it took me three hours to finish," said Nelson, who was still undergoing treatment at the time.
With so many organizations dedicated to raising funds for cancer research, she was drawn to the RABC for a different reason.
"I really looked for an organization that 100 percent of what was raised stayed local. If we aren't helping our community, who are we helping?" she said.
The Race Against Breast Cancer is self-supporting and raises funds through charitable contributions from corporations, businesses and individuals, as well as fundraising events like Meals for Mammograms, the RABC 5K Run/Walk each September and a bowl-athon held in June. One hundred percent of money raised stays in northeast Kansas to help men and women in need of no-cost mammograms and to educate the community on breast health.
"Cancer doesn't discriminate," Nelson said. "Sometimes you just need education. Most women have lumps in their breast, and most women don't know the difference between a malignant or benign tumor. A lot of people don't realize that there really is help out there."
Nelson is now cancer-free, but she remembers a time when she was ready to give up. After multiple surgeries and energy-draining treatments, it was difficult to see any end in sight.
"My youngest looked at me and said, 'Mom, I need you.' I've got four kids and two grandkids. It's really important to me to be here and to be healthy," she said. "I have a whole different attitude about life. If I want to do it, I'm going to do it. I've been kayaking and hiking. I want to be healthy. I want to survive."

Hello lovelies!
Okay, so late post again but that's alright because I'm still on track with the 31 Day Challenge!
So, onto the nails!
Hmmm.....I wonder where I've seen this design before? (;
Here's what I used:
Did you figure it out yet? I did nails based off of my background! Hannah from The Dalai Lama's Nails commented on one of my posts saying that she wanted to see nails based off of my background. I was all like "oh, hey that's a great idea! CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!" when I read it and now, here we are (:
I did make some changes because I wasn't feeling the white and Love, Angeline's Sand Castles is another one of my favorite neutral polishes. So, these started with two coats of Sand Castles and a layer of HK Girl. I cut some chevron Nail Vinyls in half (I lost my straight vinyls -_- ) and placed them for the diagonals. Then using acrylic paint and the detail brush, I painted on the triangles, and peeled the vinyls off when I was done. These were finished with another layer of HK Girl.
Thank you Hannah for the idea because I really liked these nails! It was kind of cool to wear something that I designed on my nails haha. I might have to start looking back through my own patterns!
Thanks for reading guys!
-Marisa! (:

Rachel O'Dwyer and Linda Doyle – This is not a Bit-pipe: A Political Economy of the Substrate Network
by robbiefordyce
This week's reading is an article from the latest issue of Fibreculture on 'Networked Utopias'. We'll be reading Rachel O'Dwyer and Linda Doyle's paper titled This is not a Bit-pipe: A Political Economy of the Substrate Network. In it, they argue that while Galloway and others have developed strong critiques of the politics of the network at the informational or algorithmic level, the actual physical layer of digital networks – the so-called backbone or material infrastructure – is still presented (following Benkler) as 'the benign foundation on which a political architecture is implemented'.
In response, the authors develop a political economy of networked infrastructure, whereby 'the substrate network ceases to be a benign apparatus and becomes instead a focal point at which the expropriation of the commons is not only visible, but increasingly precarious.' They take issue with what they see as the 'core criticism of the ideology of free culture, specifically that its notion of "free" pays lip service to an imperial credo aligned more closely to the social factory than to the necessary apparatuses of an idealised peer-to-peer economy, rolling out a vista from Utopia to YouTube that wilfully glosses the conflicts inherent in immaterial labour'.
You can also view the full issue of FCJ here: http://twenty.fibreculturejournal.org/
We'll be meeting this Fri, 4pm @ Tsubu. We will also be discussing possible future directions we may like to take the TCRG in – perhaps focussing on a particular set of readings or areas of research for a few weeks – and we're completely open to suggestions/input so we'd welcome anyone who'd like to come along and take part in that discussion.
Hope to see you this Fri,

Call Me By Your Name
January 19, 2018 by Cody Villafana
Filed under Cody, Reviews
Starring: Timothee Chalamet, Armie Hammer, Michael Stuhlbarg
Directed by: Luca Guadagnino ("A Bigger Splash")
Written by: James Ivory ("Maurice")
As the calendar turns to a new year and the quality of box office options are about the plummet, the one savior is the slow roll of award-worthy films slowly leaking their way to wider releases. Next up for audiences is the highly-acclaimed love story "Call Me By Your Name."
In the Summer of 1983, Elio (Timothee Chalamet) is in Italy with his parents. His father, who is a college professor, has a student intern named Oliver (Armie Hammer) come to live with them in their summer home. As Elio shows Oliver around town and spends time with him socially, he begins to realize that he has deeper feelings for him. As he expresses this, he finds out that Oliver may feel the same way as the two head down the path of summer love.
The acting is across the board phenomenal, but much of the credit deserves to go the Chalamet, who plays the part to perfection. The role calls for much internal conflict and Chalamet has a piercing empty stare that is simultaneously expressionless and emotes deep agony. Beyond that, he's magnetic and endlessly likeable, two qualities that will serve him well in almost any role in what is sure to be a bright future. Hammer, for his part, is great as well, as the confident Oliver. In a relatively low-key role, veteran actor Michael Stuhlbarg plays Oliver's father. It's a role that is solid throughout, but absolutely comes to life in a monologue later in the movie that is, hands down, the best scene of the movie and possibly the best bit of acting of Stuhlbarg's career.
The ever evolving relationship between Elio and Oliver is at the center of the film and takes a more slow-burn approach. This allows for the film's earlier moments to showcase gorgeous views of Italy and all of the care-free summer activities it has to offer. Even though they drift apart for various reasons (some of them intentional), Elio and Oliver eventually find themselves drawn back to one another, which is where the film takes off. The film almost takes a different tone altogether at that point, switching from a snapshot of summer life and fun to the intricacies and courtship of a new relationship, especially one which features so much self-discovery.
So often in modern "forbidden" love stories, the relationships feel more lustful than full of love and thus the films emotional moments feel unearned. That is not the case with "Call My By Your Name." Perhaps it's the slow build and push and pull of Elio and Oliver's relationship, but there is not one false note between them in the entire movie. Sure, their sense of attraction is palpable, and there is plenty of sexual discovery, but their sense of true connection is even more powerful as the relationship feels less like a summer fling and more like two souls uniting. Elio and Oliver's relationship is almost doomed to fail just by design and circumstances. There is something intrinsically beautiful, however, about two people who put their entire beings into a relationship they know can't work. That pure display is exactly why "Call Me By Your Name" is a transcendent love story.
A Serious Man
November 4, 2009 by Kiko Martinez
Filed under Reviews
Starring: Michael Stuhlbarg, Richard Kind, Fred Melamed
Directed by: Joel and Ethan Coen ("No Country for Old Men")
Written by: Joel and Ethan Coen ("No Country for Old Men")
If there ever was a film to support the theory that no matter how bad things may seem, there is always someone worse off than you, it's "A Serious Man." Academy Award-winning directors/writers Joel and Ethan Coen ("No Country for Old Men") take that central theme and create their best dark comedy since 1996's brilliant, accent-filled "Fargo."
In "A Serious Man," the Coens feature their most defeated film character in Larry Gopnik (Michael Stuhlbarg), a Jewish physics professor who'd feel on top of the world if he could just make it back to rock bottom. It's almost as if Larry is cursed. The film's opening scene, which is set in 19th century Eastern Europe, supports that idea as we see a Polish couple invite what may or may not be a "dybbuk" into their home for soup. A dybbuk is a harmful spirit in Jewish folklore.
While the Coens leave the fate of those characters to interpretation, Larry appears to have met his fair share of dybbuks in his lifetime. Set in 1967, he is disrespected by his soon-to-be bar mitzvahed son (Aaron Wolf), who smokes marijuana and listens to Jefferson Airplane, and his ungrateful daughter (Jessica McManus), who is saving money for a nose job. Larry's troubles start at home but hemorrhage into his work environment.
Along with an aggravated wife (Sari Lennick) pushing for a divorce so she can marrying family friend Sy Ableman (Fred Melamed) and a slouchy brother (Richard Kind) camping out on his couch and spending most of his time in the bathroom draining the cyst on the back of his neck, Larry's job also has him wound in knots. One of his students is trying to bribe him for a passing grade and someone has been sending defaming letters about him to the panel in charge of granting him tenure. Slowly but surely, everything Larry has worked for is being pulled away from him.
Despite his problems, Larry is determined to get his life together and to be taken seriously. His longsuffering disposition, however, tells a different story. Larry is pushed around by everyone and accepts it as second nature. His only hope is to find spiritual guidance by setting an appointment to speak to an always-occupied senior rabbi.
"A Serious Man" is an obscure piece of work that very well may be the most provocative film to hit theaters this year. While it is painfully funny, the Coen brothers have also conjured up some uncomfortable questions about faith and religion and dragged them into an unremorseful parable that's sure to ruffle the feathers of all God-fearing men.
In Coen fashion, the duo controls the film in every aspect. They allow you to see only what they feel is vital. While they may shroud the surface, the emotional intensity still penetrates through each character and scene in both aggravating and mesmerizing ways. One could almost see the Coens winking at each other during the making of "A Serious Man." It's all so outrageous, yet so personal. It's the type of film that will have you talking about it long after the credits roll. Why do bad thing happen to good people? The Coens might not offer answers, but enlightenment is overrated. For them, it's the tormenting that conveys the most though-provoking ideas about man's place in the world.

Care needs to be taken in mandating a 'best interest' or fiduciary-like duty, because it would imply that one did not already exist, according to Argyle Lawyers principal Peter Bobbin (pictured).
"To introduce a best interest or fiduciary duty as a new standard implies that it didn't exist before. This would be a surprise to the many professional financial planners who always considered it to be the standard that applied to them, and the standard that they applied to client servicing," said Bobbin.
"And to the extent that it is a new standard, there will be two client/planner relationships pre and post implementation. How is the cross over of the new standard to be applied?"
The Treasury and the Future of Financial Advice Peak Consultation Group is currently mulling over two possible approaches to a proposed best interests duty: one that is outcomes based and considered by some to be closer to a fiduciary-like duty, and another that is process-based. Bobbin said that whichever route Treasury and the consultation group took, consideration needed to be taken regarding what standards financial planners were currently operating under and what kind of relationship already existed between planners and their clients.
Argyle Lawyers associate and member of its financial services team, Lisa Chambers, said Treasury's fiduciary-like duty option was problematic in the financial planning context because it would "almost certainly be subject to caveats and qualifications".
"This would dilute the impact and undermine what should be the true intent of facilitating better advisory outcomes for clients, as licensees and advisers grapple with implementing processes and policy frameworks to ensure they can safely navigate the obligation," she said.
"Imposing a best interest standard and then watering it down seems somewhat redundant."
Chambers felt that the second option was more client-focused, facilitated a quality of advice approach, could be effectively implemented at the practice level, and recognised the subjectivity of financial advice and the complexities imposed by the advisory relationship.
Bobbin said his own frustration with reform in this area lay in the fact that the courts had only just come to grips with the financial planning standards imposed by the Financial Services Reform legislation, and would now have to reassess them all over again.
"By necessity, courts will always be four to six years behind new legislation because it takes that length of time before an issue is brought before a court to be dealt with under the new Government views expressed in new legislation," he explained.

One of the main areas of focus for 3.2 is improvements in usability and general appearance. We've added some new style elements, and are going through all the different areas of The Bug Genie, applying the new style elements where appropriate. These new style elements go far beyond mere looks, however, and whenever we can, we do a functional review of the area we're working on and try to find things to improve. One of the latest pages to see some style and usability improvements is the issue details page. This page is usually where you spend most of your time, so anything we can do to help here is time well spent. Here is a summary of the changes we've made to this page.
Completely redesigned look
We've ripped up the existing 3.0 and 3.1 look and feel of this page and completely redesigned it. The new issue details page has been designed to help you focus on the important aspects, and help you get things done.
This new design helps bring the more important information into view. Issue details such as status, progress, etc are now easier to spot. The whole issue details page now adapts to the available space on-screen, instead of being limited to the fixed 900px issue details "card" in the previous version(s). The redesigned layout also means the issue description can now occupy the entire width of the page, making it easier to read and greatly improving readability for elements such as code samples.
The issue title has now also been visually highlighted, and we put less emphasis on non-critical messages. There is now a "pop-down" message area below the header – visible enough to stand out, but not so much that it gets in the way. Clicking on the "OK" button in that message area causes it to disappear temporarily (until the next refresh). For critical messages, this pop-down area turns red, and some messages – such as the information about blocking issues – cannot be dismissed.
The workflow buttons have also been both restyled and repositioned, making them more visible and easily recognizable. In addition to this, they've also been better grouped, and we've also moved the "More actions" button (previously located as a link below the issue details) into this area. This gives better visibility to features that can otherwise be hard to find.
Improved functionality when scrolling
Sometimes, when you scroll, you wish you didn't have to scroll back up to trigger a workflow action, or post a comment. The new design takes this into consideration, and the header area will now fix itself at the top position when the title area scrolls out of view. If you continue to scroll, the header area also "picks up" the workflow buttons, so you have them available wherever you are on the page.
If you scroll past the "add comment" button, the workflow controls also "picks up" this button, letting you post comments also from mid-page (or at the very bottom).
This can be very handy and useful when you're working with long comment threads, browsing the source code activity log and other items that have you scrolling up and down the page.
More unified look
We've also applied the new style elements to several other areas of this issue page, giving it a much more consistent look and feel. In addition to this, we've also switched over to the unified dialog look for items requiring confirmation. This means you get a consistent experience for any confirmation-based actions.
We hope you appreciate all the work we put into making The Bug Genie an even better issue tracking system. Just for you.

The Fremo-modules that make up Grimstad station was built 8 years ago, and they have traveled a lot around to different Fremo-meets over these years. The last couple of years it has started to show signs of age and wear, and with old code 100 tracks and new scenery skills at hand, I've dreamt of starting all over again. Today, with good help from Halvor Sannæs, I have actually started the big process of making a brand new Grimstad station that I can take with me to Fremo-meets as well as using it as a part of my layout at home. The first Fremo-meet is in just 6 weeks, so I'd better hurry!
This is like a clean sheat of paper. First a lot of cutting.
Then the fun begins; the first section is taking shape.
And here it is : the first complete section of the new Grimstad!!!
Two sections down, one to go.
And here it is. After 4 hours of work we got the three sections done. The new Grimstad is roughly 40 cm longer than the old one, and will have Code75 track instead of code 100 and larger turonouts. Can't wait to start laying track!

WOW! 6 weeks in order to completely rebuild Grimstad? That's a real challenge :)
Can't wait to see the progress. Also, I like your blogspot "migration". It makes blog updates very easy and fast!

Wohooo! My first comment in blogspot :) Yup, in six weeks it should be ready for action. I will reuse my old control panel, so it's just a matter of laying tracks and wiring it all up. The scenery will come later.

Hei Tore!
You chose a hard to get target!
But i'm sure we can run the trains
just in time in Arendal. So, no longer disturb on your work.
We see us

The United States has already imposed tariffs on $250 billion worth of Chinese goods, and China has responded with retaliatory duties on $110 billion worth of US goods.
US President Donald Trump has threatened to impose billions of dollars worth of new tariffs on China if the two countries fail to reach an agreement on a new trade deal.
"I think that we will make a great deal with China,"Trump told FOX News Channel's "The Ingraham Angle" in an interview on Monday.
"And I have $267 billion waiting to go if we can't make a deal," Trump added.
Trump has long threatened to impose tariffs on all remaining Chinese imports into the US if Beijing fails to meet US demands for a new trade deal.
Bloomberg news reported on Monday that Washington was preparing to announce tariffs on all remaining Chinese imports by early December if talks next month between Trump and his counterpart Xi Jinping fail to ease the trade war.
Both Trump and Xi are expected to attend next month's G20 summit in Buenos Aires, where they could meet.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China and the US have all along been in communication about exchanges at all levels, including a possible Xi-Trump meeting in Argentina.
US-China trade talks
Trade talks between the US and China concluded in September without reaching a breakthrough.
The escalation of the trade war and implementation of new tariffs on each other's products has been counterproductive in the talks.
US demands from China include sweeping changes in bilateral trade, technology transfer and industrial subsidy policies.
Beijing insists that Washington must pursue mutual interests of the US and China in trade talks between them.
If the US is not willing to promote win-win cooperation with China, then China will continue with its reforms and develop itself, Lu said in Beijing on Tuesday.

Last week, Funko announced a series of action figures based on the 'Disney Afternoon' block of animated programming. Running from 1990 to 1997, this block included such series as DuckTales, Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers, Talespin, Darkwing Duck and Gargoyles in their lineup. This first wave of figures from Funko includes Scrooge McDuck from DuckTales; Chip and Dale from Rescue Rangers, Darkwing Duck (a normal colorway and a chase) and Baloo from TaleSpin. Funko was awesome enough to send a set over to the AwesomeToyBlog HQ, and we're going to talk a look at them all. Let's take a look at both versions of Darkwing Duck today.
As with the other figures in the Disney Afternoon line-up the card is specific to the Darkwing Duck cartoon and, as with Scrooge McDuck, no other figures are referenced on the card back. The 'Negatron Negaduck' variant is spotlighted as a chase figure by a silver sticker on the blister. He is a 1:6 chase figure.
If you've read the other reviews from this series (Scrooge, Chip & Dale) then you know what to expect here. The quality continues to show through with the Darkwing Duck figures – again an on-model sculpt shines with a perfect paint job to boot. The paint job on the Negaduck chase is particularly striking. The articulation on Darkwing Duck is also comparable to the others – hips, waist, shoulders, elbows and neck. Perfect serviceable articulation and a very stable figure.
Both Darkwing Duck figures include a gun weapon.
Retailing for $10-$15, the Darkwing Duck figue is another solid figure from the folks at Funko. Based on this first series of Disney Afternoon figures so far, I'm hoping a second wave of characters is announced soon to build this world out. Look for them soon from your favorite Funko retailers (like AwesomeToyBlog sponsor Entertainment Earth).

American Governor Declares October 6 "Wizkid Day"
Multiple award-winning Nigerian afro-beat Superstar Wizkid has hit a record milestone in his career as he is honoured in the United States of America by the governor of Minnesota Mark Dayton.
Just recently Wizkid sold out his #MadeInLagos concert held at the Skyway Theatre in Minneapolis, a feat achieved only by Beyoncé in Minnesota, thus making the "Soco" hit maker the first African artiste to do this.
Following this, Governor Mark Dayton declared every October 6 as Wizkid Day in the state.
The highly esteemed Africa's Starboy has had a great 2018 so far making history along the way.
Wizkid, who was recently named "The Hottest Popstar in Africa" by Vogue Magazine just released two bangers "Fever" and "Master Groove" and as expected they are the two hottest song on the airwaves now.
Ever since achieving International recognition two years ago following his appearance on Drake's chart-topping and award-winning "One Dance", Wizkid has been on a roll of awesomeness. Earlier this year, he became the first Nigerian artiste to sell out the 20,000-capacity 02 Arena in London for his Afrorepublik Concert.
Not long after, he became the first African artiste to walk the runway for Dolce and Gabbana, and also signed a deal with Nike.
These and several other feats are stated as reasons for honouring Wizkid. Surely, despite the poor reputations that the Nigerian people might have outside its shores, Wizkid is working hard at positively representing the country and taking its culture to greater heights, and we are very proud of him.
Congratulations to the Superstar.
Let us know what you think in the comment section below.

Groucho Max, 'considered one of America's greatest and most gifted comedians', said that "Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedies." This quote somewhat sums up Rre Dumelang Saleshando's caution on his party lawyers that they think hard with their consciences should Botswana Democratic Party's (BDP) Rre Ian Khama or prominent party leadership approach them for legal assistance. Further, Saleshando asked his party lawyers to 'balance their professional duties with the interests of the organisation they freely and voluntarily chose to associate with.' His gripe with Khama is that he 'presided over a corrupt government that had minimal regard for civil liberties.' (See Mmegi online edition dated 8 August 2018). While Saleshando's caution is more politically expedient than anything else, it fatally infringes on the legal ethics of such lawyers as will be argued hereunder. Someone said that 'the basic tenet of the professional responsibilities of lawyers is that every person in our society should have a ready access to independent professional services of a lawyer of integrity and competence.' By infringing on the legal ethics of his party lawyers, Saleshando is 'looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly and applying the wrong remedies.'
From the outset, I fully concur with Saleshando that Khama 'presided over a corrupt government…' and I need not articulate the corrupt activities because I have done so in the past on this platform. Other than myself, other like-minded compatriots have done so. That said, Saleshando seems to conveniently forget that his party lawyers wear two hats against his single one. That is, these lawyers are lawyers on one hand and politicians on the other. These two vocations are not administered by the same ethical conducts- serious lawyering is a serious professional vocation underpinned by serious legal frameworks with serious consequent management should these frameworks be violated while politicking, with the greatest respect I can muster, is a free-for-all vocation where even poor souls like myself can raise a hand to enter the contest. Admission standards to enter politics are as hopelessly low as is the low success rate of the DCEC to arrest and convict the corrupt big fish. One could argue that Saleshando could very well caution his other professionals like doctors not to attend to Khama and his associates in case they sought medical assistance from them because Saleshando has a political axe to grind with Khama and them. It cannot be.
Addressing the BCP Francistown Annual Conference in July 2017, Saleshando touched on a number of issues amongst which was the infamous 'Removal of Medical Cover for Self Inflicted Harm' policy. He is quoted by the Sunday Standard/The Telegraph face book posting dated 27 July 2017 to have said with regards to this policy that 'We will be challenging the formulation of this policy as it offends both the Constitution as well as the ethical conduct of the medical profession' [My emphasis]. If this is indeed what he said, it contradicts and offends his cautionary position on professional conscience. It simply suggests that his party lawyers should exercise such conscience to deny other compatriots in the form of Khama and his associates the legal assistance for their political conducts while the medical profession shouldn't in so far as the policy referred herein is concerned. I should state however that I concur with his presumed views on the injustice this policy would have perpetuated on the greater society in light of the duty placed on the medical profession to save lives.
I expect seasoned politicians like Saleshando to teach their followers the truth-that professionals as a matter of course from his party and elsewhere are expected to rise above narrow political expediency to offer legal or other professional assistances sought by whomsoever. It is dangerous and unfair that politicians conveniently misinform their followers in pursuit of a political agenda. I am reminded of the story of Advocate Sidney Pilane who has been bashed by some members of the opposition for offering legal services to Rre Issac Kgosi. Politicians at the leadership level did not tell their members that Pilane was not committing any professional or other crime by offering legal assistance to Kgosi however strongly they felt about them (Pilane and Kgosi). It was just a matter of scoring political points while conveniently ignoring and at the same time causing opposition members to ignore Pilane's professional duty to members of the society notwithstanding political views one may hold.
Saleshando may however be very well vindicated strictly politically speaking that is, by Martin Luther King Jr when he said "There comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but he must take it because conscience tells him it is right." I will concede that there will be different interpretations to Martin Luther's quote. Like I have said above, BCP lawyers wear two distinct hats of professionals and politicians. On exercising their political consciences, they would more likely or not go along with Saleshando's caution in order to gain political mileage on the 'balance of their professional duties with the interests of the organisation they freely and voluntarily chose to associate with.' Lawyers-turned-politicians generally speaking, have shown overtime that once they enter the political space, they lower the bar to the extent that they behave in a manner consistent to those who have spent fewer days in a classroom. Go to parliament and see how they behave discourteously to their colleagues. British philosopher Professor Cyril Joad said that "To reduce human persons to the status of tools or things to be used for ends chosen by others is reprehensible." There could be some professionals in the BCP who notwithstanding that they '….freely and voluntarily chose to associate with' it would be willing to stick to their consciences that they have a duty to offer legal assistance to Khama and his associates regardless of what their leader (Saleshando) demands of them or better still, what wrongs Khama did politically. There could also be those who unreservedly endorse Saleshando's caution to deny Khama and his associates their legal assistances. The choice is purely personal.
While Saleshando was making a political statement for political expediency which he is perfectly entitled to as a politician, it is in my view professionally misplaced because it was made to a wrong constituency. And while he tried to qualify his statement by saying that it was in large measure specifically directed at Khama and his associates, it somewhat and unnecessarily puts pressure on his professionals who may not agree with him on account of their ethical imperatives. It would somehow make it difficult for other professionals who may wish to join his party to do so on account that they may feel uncomfortable and compromised to offend their very legal or other ethical imperatives. We have seen in the recent past the Chairman of the EFF Advocate Dali Mpofu representing the Mayor of Cape Town Patricia De Lille who is a political opponent from the Democratic Alliance. The EFF has not had any problem with their Chairman representing political opponents because it recognises that he wears two different hats. I am not strictly suggesting though I am tempted to do so that Saleshando should follow the EFF's route but that on a point of principle, hard core politics should to the extent possible be separated from legal and other professions.
It is my considered view at the end of the day that Saleshando's caution on his party lawyers not to offer their legal assistance to political opponents like Khama and his associates is seriously misplaced. It goes against and offends their ethical expectations. It is politically okay for him to caution them against voting for Khama's party but professionally undesirable for him to enter the professional space because that is not his competent terrain. Like Groucho Max said, 'Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying wrong remedies.' Judge for Yourself!

|New 3 Bedroom Dwelling
|Planning Approved
"What do you think to this space, can i get a house on it" to which I replied yes of course you can. Some drawing works later, a planning application and lots of liaising we got a planning approval for a new contemporary 3 bedroom property, on a very very tight site.
The site for the new dwelling is currently a car port sandwiched between the existing property and the neighbours house. The site is right on the road, with a nice sized garden.
Our proposal maximises the site to the fullest. The ground floor allows for a open plans kitchen dining living area, leading on to a fair sized garden through the full width bi-fold doors to the rear. The front provides parking for 2 vehicles under the over sailing first floor.
The upper floors provide accommodation for 3 bedrooms and a family bathroom, the uppermost floor has a separate ensuite facility.
The proposal required a thinking out the box solution, which evolved over many conversations with the client, planners and sketch ideas.
The final proposal won over the planners, and has provided a valuable asset to the client, and very tight somewhat unexpected building plot.

Golf Travel Bags – Choose Wisely to Protect Your Investment
Planning a golf vacation? Don't forget to protect your golf clubs by choosing the right golf travel bag. How do you choose the golf travel bag that is right for you? Let's take a quick look at three different styles to help you make the right choice.
Remember, choosing the right golf travel bag isn't only about the bag itself. Golfers planning a golf vacation or just looking for protection on short golf trips should ask themselves a few questions before making a purchase.
What is your budget for a golf travel bag?
Do you travel frequently with your golf clubs?
Do your golf trips mostly include air travel or auto travel?
With these questions in mind, let's take a quick look at the different styles of golf travel bags and the benefits and negatives each offers.
Hybrid Travel Bags
These types of golf travel bags are essentially a golf bag with a hard top to protect your clubs. Unlike other styles, hybrids do not protect your day-to-day golf bag.
Hybrids will help golf travelers with space restrictions. They require less space than other models and also weigh less.
However, hybrid golf travel bags are not your golf bag. Therefore you must unpack and pack all of your golf gear each time you travel. These types of bags are also not the best choice for airline travel.
For golfers who travel more often by automobile and have an extra set of golf clubs, hybrid golf travel bags are a good choice.
Golfers can pick up a hybrid golf travel bag for as little as $60 with top of the line bags going for around $230.
Soft Golf Travel Bags
Think of this style of travel bags as a soft, padded, glove that covers your day-to-day golf bag and clubs. Usually, these bags come with a rigid bottom and wheels to help golfers carry them from location to location.
If you love to carry a lot of golf gear on your travels, then soft-style cases might be the right choice for you. You can travel with your day-to-day bag and stuff it with your other gear and golf accessories. These travel bags also breaks down easily and take up less storage space than hard case bags.
Some of the negatives associated with soft-style golf travel bags are mobility and protection. Soft bags usually do not roll as easily as hard cases. Also, these bags do not offer the same protection as hard cases. Your club heads are especially vulnerable in a soft-style bag.
If you choose a soft-style golf travel bag, I highly recommend that you pick up a Stiff Arm accessory. This will protect your club heads in the event of a direct impact to the top of your bag.
The best soft-style bags can cost anywhere from $120 – $300.
Hard Case Golf Travel Bags
This style of travel bag encompasses your bag and club. They provide the highest amount of protection but do not have space for the …

"For better, or worse, for richer, for poorer..." are the most common traditional wedding line known to most if not all but rarely do couples mean these sincere words to each other when repeated in front of a congregation of family and friends. This may sound harsh and both spouses may have truly meant it at the time, but we know the divorce rates plaguing our nation and ripping apart families.
Divorce Rates Climb
According to Pew Research, Renne Stepler, writes in regards to the vast increase in divorce for adults fifty and older1,, the National Center for Health Statistics and U.S. Census Bureau conclude that for every 1,000 marriages in this age population, ten marriages experience divorce.
This 2015 figure is an increase from 5, the figure reported in 1990. Therefore, in the last 25 years from 1990 to 2015, this age bracket has experienced a whopping 109% increase. This has coined a phrase "Gray Divorce" for that generation.
For those in a younger range, 40-49 years old, has seen a 14% increase while the age gap from 25-39 years old actually has seen a decrease by 21%.
With a large part of these generations experiencing divorce, there are commonalities that we can learn from to stop the high rates of divorce.
While marriages end for a variety of reasons, Marriage.com lists out the top 10 Reasons for Divorce2:
Lack of Communication
Constant Arguing
Weight Gain
Unrealistic Expectations
Lack of Intimacy
Lack of Equality
Unprepared for Marriage
Source: Marriage.com
Money a Top Reason for Divorce
Couples already struggle in communicating with each other by sharing their issues and pain or talking and listening. In an article from LiveAbout.com, it was noted that spouses have fear when bringing up particular topics because of the pain it might bring to the other spouse.3
This is one of the reasons that money is a sensitive topic when it comes to discussing it once in a marriage. It all boils down to communication and if you and your spouse are not discussing your financial plans of the present and future, then pain and hurt could be on the horizon.
Budget Household Expenses Once a Month
When sitting down to finalize your monthly expenses and budget, you MUST include your spouse in the conversation. Like most men, I was guilty of this too because we like to be the bread winner and we hate failure or having faults pointed out.
It is very common for a household to designate one of the couples to handle their finances. Sometimes it is the man and more often I am learning its the woman.
Whether it be the wife or husband, both need to be on the same page when it comes to any of the following:
This isn't an all-inclusive list but it does get the conversation started and a willingness to share by communicating. I recommend you schedule a time and date once a month to go over any of the above items and discuss any issues or concerns you or the spouse may have.
Do not leave the table until the couple are both in understanding. Should anything arise that may disturb the conversation or should an interruption take place, then reschedule a date and time to reengage.
"Husbands and wives are not communicating together..."
There is a reason why communication and money rank high on the list for divorce. While different studies will rank each in a different order, the results are in and whether these are ranked number one, two, or three is irrelevant because it still ranks and is obviously a major concern in marriages.
Husbands and wives are not communicating together and guess what? Finances are one of the those topics.
Be sure to check out several budget templates for under $2 on our Etsy store to help get you started.
Men & Women Differ About Money
We all have heard about men and women being from two different planets, hence the book. But the debate isn't as far fetched as some may be led to believe. According to a survey by Kiplinger, "women were more likely than men to say that they talk to friends and family or ask questions of a financial adviser". 3 As a male and in my experience, this is mostly likely very true---Ouch!
Sorry guys. Men typically are very prideful and we like to think we know a lot of things. When it comes to finances, we can get defensive at times. We don't like to be second guessed and we surely don't like to be wrong.
On the other hand, women tend to be more fact checkers, conduct their research, etc because of their need for security.
This goes hand-in-hand with our article earlier this month Men, Give Women Your Money which discusses research on how women outperformed men in the stock market. When it comes to investing and unlike men, women tend to take less risk. So it stands to merit that the survey is fairly accurate.
Work Together as a Couple
One of the best ways in working together as a couple is assisting one another in saving money. While most consider their budgets already trimmed, prices and rates are always changing as companies continue to compete to earn new business.
I recommend you call for an insurance quote. Insurance prices from life to auto have declined with competition so a company that is trusted by me is Allstate and eSurance. You should consider working together in calling or clicking the links to communicate on opportunities to start saving.
Even if the quotes are not saving you money, you should work together and double check their rates as an exercise to communicate with one another and learn each other's preferences.
Another great exercise is checking each other's credit score. I am amazed how many couples have never reviewed and learned about each's credit past. True communication is learning more about each other and if a person has a bad credit past, then that needs to be shared immediately to ensure the couple work together on issues that may be present or recently evident. I advised you get a FREE credit score from Credit Sesame to check this.
A third resource I want to recommend helps with transparency. It is an app that I use to monitor my spending ensuring I do not exceed and Personal Capital does this for FREE!
Bottom Line
In conclusion, it is vital and critical that spouses sit together and make time to go over monthly expenditures. If you don't this opens up dangers in your marriage. If you do take my advice, then you are opening up lines of communication to build trust, integrity, transparency, and willingness to learn from each other.

JUnit Gotcha!
October 24, 2008
I'm in the process of getting the newly separated cmlxom library ready for release. As I'm an obsessive upgrader I decided to update the junit library cmlxom uses from 4.3 to 4.5. And a load of tests broke. What?
The reason: Assert.assertEquals(double, double) has been deprecated for a while, replaced by Assert.assertEquals(double expected, double actual, double delta), and rightly so. Instead of removing Assert.assertEquals(double, double> they chose to make it throw AssertionFailed.
Moral of the tale: examine deprecation warnings before upgrading dependencies!

Saw your links about the new JUnit version… looks cool. CDK is way behind in JUnit version, but got so many unit tests to convert…
BTW, might you send me pom files which I can use as template for the CDK? CDK-Eclipse is working out quite well, and now have some helper classes to get relevant metadata about the CDK modules… so creating POM files should be easy now…

Sure, it's in the e-post…

Ashley Tisdale seen with her boyfriend
Ashley Tisdale appeared in total glamorous mode with her slightly sheer purple attire and light brown hair rumpled in loose long waves across her shoulders. But Ashley gave her ensemble a more uptight look with the accession of some high heeled black color leather ankle shoe as she came out on Friday evening in Los Angeles.
Probably the rockier accession to her ensemble could be assigned to her musician partner Christopher French who came with the High School Musical star in a black leather dress, grey colored jeans and boots.
Christopher French donned a slightly open shirt that showed off one of the tattoos he has, and at one time he wrapped his arm across Ashley as they came at a Television Critic's Association event at the Universal Studios. Ashley Tisdale sported minimal jewelry and pernicious make-up with the frock that featured marine themed design.
Ashley Tisdale began seeing Annie Automatic member after she split with boyfriend Scott Speer in 2012. An inside told a leading magazine that Ashley prefer those rocker kind people. They have mutual friends and just met through hanging out.
Earlier, Christopher French was linked to The Big Bang Theory star Kaley Cuoco. Ashley Tisdale will be seen along with Nicolas Cage in movie called Left Behind very soon.
Recently, speaking about the film, Ashley told that she was super excited about the film. In the film, she would play the role of Nicolas Cage's daughter. She added that she had always loved drama and comedy, but it was good to switch it up to show her range.

Introducing the 2018 edition of the BP Statistical Review of World Energy, Bob Dudley, BP group chief executive, said: 2017 was a year where structural forces in the energy market continued to push forward the transition to a lower carbon economy, but where cyclical factors have reversed or slowed some of the gains from prior years. These factors, combined with rising demand for energy, has resulted in a material increase in carbon emissions following three years of little or no growth.
Data published in the Review the 67th annual edition show that:
- growth in energy demand increased, led by growing demand for natural gas and renewables,
- gains in energy efficiency slowed as industrial activity in the OECD accelerated and output from Chinas most energy-intensive sectors returned to growth,
- coal consumption increased for the first time in four years, led by growing demand in India and China, and
- carbon emissions are estimated to have increased after three years of little to no growth.
Bob Dudley, group chief executive:
This years Review looks at the energy mix within the power sector, for the first time, which astonishingly shows that the share of coal in the sector is unchanged from 20 years ago."
In 2017 global energy demand grew by 2.2%, above its 10-year average of 1.7%. This above-trend growth was driven by stronger economic growth in the developed world and a slight slowing in the pace of improvement in energy intensity.
Demand for oil grew by 1.8% while growth in production was below average for the second consecutive year. Production from OPEC and the 10 other countries that agreed cuts decreased, while producing countries outside of that group, particularly the US driven by tight oil, saw increases. Consumption exceeded production for much of 2017 and as a result OECD inventories fell back to more normal levels.
2017 was a strong year for natural gas with consumption up 3% and production up 4% the fastest growth rates since immediately following the global financial crisis. The single biggest factor fueling global gas consumption was the surge in Chinese gas demand, where consumption increased by over 15%, driven by government environmental policies encouraging coal-to-gas switching.
Renewables grew strongly in 2017, with wind and solar leading the way. Coal consumption was also up, growing for the first time since 2013.
Bob Dudley commented: This years Review looks at the energy mix within the power sector, for the first time, which astonishingly shows that the share of coal in the sector is unchanged from 20 years ago.
As we have said in our Energy Outlook, our Technology Outlook and now our Statistical Review, the power system must decarbonize. We continue to believe that gains in the power sector are the most efficient way to drive down carbon emissions in coming decades.
Review highlights
Primary energy
- Primary energy consumption growth averaged 2.2% in 2017, up from 1.2 % last year and the fastest since 2013. This compares with the 10-year average of 1.7% per year.
- By fuel, natural gas accounted for the largest increment in energy consumption, followed by renewables and then oil.
- Energy consumption rose by 3.1% in China. China was the largest growth market for energy for the 17th consecutive year.
- Carbon emissions from energy consumption increased by 1.6%, after little or no growth for the three years from 2014 to 2016.
- The oil price (Dated Brent) averaged $54.19 per barrel, up from $43.73/barrel in 2016. This was the first annual increase since 2012.
- Global oil consumption growth averaged 1.8%, or 1.7 million barrels per day (b/d), above its 10-year average of 1.2% for the third consecutive year. China (500,000 b/d) and the US (190,000 b/d) were the single largest contributors to growth.

A good day of soothing rain
The earth comforted, bathed as a small child
In a little tub, a small summer pool
Pampered, spoiled by the loving mother
By a family taking greatest pleasure
In this new life so beautifully vibrant
As a pearl key opening a door to much happiness;
What can be said but thanksgiving
What can be shown but true gladness.
The earth itself is in labor to give birth
Intense moments in days of anguish
Consuming moments in days of many tears
Millennia of conflicts and frustrations brought to a shrill pitch,
Until the soon new creation of all things
Even a new heaven and a new earth.
For now, new men in spiritual rebirth stand with new hearts
First fruit of new women in spiritual rebirth glow with lasting beauty;
The earth can stand comforted, the earth soothed and uplifted
Refreshing, cleansing rain
Foretaste of freedom in life from above
Soon to be fulfilled.

Monday, April 6, 2009
Fast forward to Sunday(yesterday) and my critiquing partner, Beth sent me an invite to join Facebook. Yes, I did that too. We'd went to a writing workshop on Saturday and it was about marketing your book and getting your name out there. Beth was already a member of facebook, but I hadn't had the opportunity to jump in.
I have been with goodreads for about six to eight months and I love it. Got A LOT of friends there and feelin' the love, it's oh so fine! Now if I can just get it together on facebook and twitter I'll be doing everything I need to do, to market my book. OOPS, I forgot, first things first, I need to finish the book! :)
4 comments:
Yes, finish the book! That's important! :) I am just starting to look into things like Facebook too. It's a lot of work to get yourself out there, but I think it's important, especially if you are set to publish soon. Networking can also get your people who can help with your book before you are done.ReplyDelete
Agreed, Davin. You and I are thinking alike, and the book is the most important thing because if I don't have it, then there's no reason for any of it. :) The networking is invaluable too though, huh?ReplyDelete
I haven't joined Twitter yet, but I'm starting to enjoy Facebook. But I definitely agree that staring your networking early is important. It'd be nice to be able to tell an agent, "I have # of people who follow me who would buy my book."ReplyDelete
Maybe, once I finish my book I'll consider giving Twitter a chance. The last thing I need is more distractions, lol!
Oh yeah, and both of us need to get back to work on the books! Finish, finish, finish!!!
Banned complain !! Complaining only causes life and mind become more severe. Enjoy the rhythm of the problems faced. No matter ga life, not a problem not learn, so enjoy it :)

FrumLater – Live at The Living Room :: Shambhala 2012
Here's a nice heady dance mix for ya… Caught this set by FrumLater last year on the Living Room Stage at Shambhala Music Festival in Salmo, BC. He was filling for someone. Someone awesome, which is why I was there. But honestly, I don't remember who that was now. I do know that this man waxed the dance floor that evening. DAMN.
Catch him at Shambhala again this year. See you there!

(Yicai Global) Jan. 18 -- A US lawmaker introduced a bill last week which seeks to bar government agencies and related entities from using the communications products of two Chinese companies it cites by name.
Gao Feng, spokesman of China's commerce ministry replied by noting at a news briefing today that this sends the wrong signal to the market and is a detriment to cooperation between the two countries in the information and communication sectors. It has also shaken Chinese enterprises' confidence in the US business and investment environments.
Mike Conaway, a Republican congressman from Texas, proposed the Defending US Government Communications Act (HR 4747), which prohibits government procurement or use of communications equipment or services provided by the two, and prohibits their application as a core technological component of US telecommunications facilities.
This China-made communications equipment will endanger national security and Americans' public life will be monitored, Conaway predicted. US intelligence officials have confirmed that China's Huawei Technologies Co. and ZTE Corp. [HK:0763] share data with their government, while as other Chinese enterprises are also thriving in the US information security risks to it are rising in consequence, he warned.
China, in turn, hopes the US treats Chinese enterprises and products objectively and impartially from the perspective of consumers' interests and strives to create a more open, fair, transparent and convenient market to truly benefit US consumers, Gao added.

Put an Amazing First Impression Through your Website that Lasts Forever
They say that first impressions are the last of impressions and this remains true all the time. Be it your attitude, your behavior, your appearance or even the website of your business.
The design, the clarity, and the accessibility of your website counts very close with the kind of judgment which the visitor will pass hence it is crucial for your website to be on point.
If you are a businessman and have not yet designed your website, then you are missing out on a lot.
Ask the best Digital Marketing Agency, Digital Flic and you will get to know the importance of having a great website.
According to this Digital Marketing Agency, a website is one of the most important investments that you can make but the problem occurs when entrepreneurs either overspend or under spend on their websites and end up losing the value of the business image in total. Thus having the right amount to invest and enhance the importance of website counts for the long run.
- Your website reflects who you are
The way you carry your business and the way through which you exuberate your professionalism is clearly reflected through your website. If your website will look professional, then all your visitors as well as your clients will believe that you are a professional. This is because they will think that you have enough clients and have a good turnover hence you have such a great website designed for your business. Thus a Digital Marketing Firm focuses so much on designing a powerful website for you. If your website will be clumsy and uneasy to access then that will be the exact image which your clients and visitors will have for you.
- You can generate more business through your website
The look, colour, accessibility of your website helps the client or the visitors to stay there for long or to leave it immediately. If your website is clumsy the visitors will spread negative word of mouth that can pull down your image. Thus with the help of Digital Marketing Firm, you can have the adequate website layout, the attractive colour combination, the smooth accessibility which it deserves to have.
Thus, it is not a child's play or a drawing competition, but a big responsibility to shape the perception of your clients about you thorough every aspect of your website. Give it to the Digital Marketing Agency and get visitors like never before.
