1st July 2013David and Anthony Swindells dealt with:
David came into our home to help with Barney our rescue dog.
As soon as he came in he made us all feel at ease.
Started getting down to the training straight away. And everything he told us he explained really well, any questions we had how ever stupid he was happy to answer.
Barney seems to have calmed down even after only one session.
Lots of work still to do but with David's help we will get there.

Our first session was incredibly interesting and actually very enjoyable. David was very patient with us and Molly, and gave us all the information and techniques we need to make a start on improving Molly's behaviour. She responded very well to the methods used on the session. David explained everything very thoroughly and answered all of our questions. We now feel like we understand Molly's behaviour and can improve it so that we are all happier!

David was excellent. He made us feel at ease with his relaxed manner and worked very hard with us and Henry. David helped us understand the personality of our dog and how to work out what he was telling us. As a result we can already see an improvement in Henrys behaviour. For the first time we feel positive about making progress with training because we can already see good results. We know we have a lot of hard work ahead but with Davids help we know we can do it.

nottingham, Nottinghamshire (Testimonial)
7th June 2013David and Anthony Swindells dealt with:
David is a very friendly and relaxed person, putting both Stella (my pooch) and myself at ease straight away. Stella is going to take some time being an adult dog, but we were constantly reassured by David and saw results instantly. I have grown up with a house full of dogs without problems so it took me a long time to admit I needed support with my first terrier. I wish I'd joined Barkbusters when I first got Stella as a pup. I'm looking forward to many more happy years with her thanks to David.

12th May 2013David and Anthony Swindells dealt with:
We were given very detailed information that made sense; David didn't rush us or the dog and had a very calm presence which was welcome, given that we have a hyperactive dog.
We were pleased with our first training session and are looking forward to moving on; David gave us confidence that we would eventually be able to help our dog relax.

The Sacral Chakra is the second chakra and is located in the lower abdomen near the sacrol bone of the spine. Its color is orange and it relates to creativity, abundance, intimacy and relationships. An unbalanced Sacral Chakra can result in physical symptoms in the bowels or sexual organs and feelings of jealousy and betrayal.
One way to balance the Sacral Chakra is through color therapy. You can apply the orange color of the Sacral Chakra directly to your body through items like scarves or printed clothing. Another way is to gaze upon the color of the Sacral Chakra as in an open eyed meditation. Prints and wall hangings can be very useful for this. Simply sit with a relaxed stare and focus on the design.
Learn how to use color and symbols to balance your sacral chakra.

Moon is 405 142 km (251 744 mi) away from Earth on this date. Moon moves closer next 11 days until perigee, when Earth-Moon distance will reach 366 348 km (227 638 mi).
1 day after its descending node on 18 September 2030 at 10:12 in ♊ Gemini, the Moon is following the southern part of its orbit for the next 12 days, until it will cross the ecliptic from South to North in ascending node on 1 October 2030 at 22:00 in ♐ Sagittarius.
14 days after beginning of current draconic month in ♐ Sagittarius, the Moon is moving from the second to the final part of it.
At 02:24 on this date the Moon is meeting its North standstill point, when it will reach northern declination of ∠22.208°. Next 13 days the lunar orbit will move in opposite southward direction to face South declination of ∠-22.097° in its southern standstill point on 2 October 2030 at 13:26 in ♐ Sagittarius.
After 7 days on 27 September 2030 at 09:55 in ♎ Libra, the Moon will be in New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and this alignment forms next Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy.

Would it be reprehensible for me to ban people from Arizona from reading this blog? Or would that merely be a justifiable exercise of my rights?
OK, I don't mean to sweep all residents of Arizona into the same asbestos-lined basket of rotting rat turds. In fact, I like everyone I've ever met from that state. But the majority of voters in Arizona seem to be assholes of the highest order.
First they pass a law on par with those of the old East Germany, giving the police the right to demand proof of citizenship from anyone who looks the least bit suspicious. So if I, with my Mediterranean good looks, were to walk into a dinner outside of Tuscon, the local cops could saunter over to my booth and legally demand "Papers, please!" It must be like living in a Cold War spy movie, except this is your home – not some Iron Curtain backwater.
Then the esteemed citizens of Arizona tried to pass a law on par with Uganda's recently enacted official hatred of all things homosexual. Clearly looking to outmaneuver Mississippi in the race to be the Shithead State, Arizona tried to pass legislation that would give businesses the right to refuse service to anyone they deemed gay.
How exactly would that have worked? I mean, Richard Simmons is about as flamboyant as the stereotype can get, but he's never openly discussed his sexual preference. Would he be able to order a gluten-free kale wrap at an Arizona diner with more enthusiasm than the entire cast of Glee? Or would he be refused service simply based on appearance, like the state's "I Hate Hispanics" law? And what if someone is bisexual? Does that mean they can only order half a sandwich?
Religious Freedom, Religious Liberty
Look, I understand where these people are coming from. They do not believe in homosexuality, just as a significant portion of like-minded individuals in this country don't believe in science. It's ludicrous and shameful, but they are certainly entitled to believe what they choose to believe. The problem is that these religious fanatics are now trying to legislate their beliefs, insisting that we must all adhere to their extremism as as if this country were some sort of medieval theocracy.
I'll be the first to admit that I've also flirted with the notion of religious freedom as an excuse to shape legislation. Though, rather than using it to oppose a behavior I found objectionable, I was thinking of using it to support one that I enjoy: the legalization of marijuana. After all, I reckoned, the practice is considered a sacrament in the Rastafarian religion. So, if I grew some dreads, I shouldn't have any trouble with the feds, right? Religious freedom…religious liberty!
Wrong. I quickly dismissed this notion because it is hopelessly flawed. Religious freedom is about the freedom to believe whatever you want, not necessarily do whatever you want. Of course, you are free to practice your beliefs in whatever way you want as long as it doesn't infringe on the rights of others, who may not share your beliefs, or the laws of the land, which are – and should always be – secular, just like our Constitution. And that's where the problem lies, in that these boneheads think the law should be dictated by their own religious beliefs, like the Taliban in Afghanistan.
Besides, if we had to allow everything that is illegal simply because someone claims their God says it is or is not permissible, then we'd have to allow clowns like David Koresh and Warren Jeffs to freely molest children. Is that what Arizona wants? I don't think so.
Leave Judgement To Your God
OK, so you still insist that your invisible being in the ether says that homosexuality is a sin. An abomination, if you choose to interpret it that way (I have a friend who is fluent in Hebrew and she argues that the biblical passage says it's merely frowned upon, not an "abomination" as some – particularly those who aren't fluent in Hebrew – claim). But if that's what you believe, then simply don't practice homosexuality. Don't commit that sin.
Why must you judge others based on your beliefs? Isn't it part of your beliefs that only God can judge your fellow man? Or is that now your job because the omnipotent one is having a little trouble multitasking as he tries to assist every single high school football team in Texas that has a pre-game prayer, with the team that prays harder winning in the all-too-likely event that both teams engage in this ridiculous and surely blasphemous practice?
Complete Bullshit
How do I know this is nothing more than blatant homophobic bullshit? Because the Bible also claims that coveting thy neighbor's wife is a sin. Is anyone pushing for legislation to refuse service to men who leer? Strangely, no, these pure adherents of the Bible have chosen to ignore or overlook that one.
Many Christians also consider gluttony to be a sin, one of the Big Seven. So where was the Religious Right when Mayor Bloomberg tried to ban large servings of sugary sodas in New York City? Shouldn't they have thrown their millions of dollars and supporters into that well-intentioned effort to combat the sin of gluttony?
The Bible's Book of Proverbs contains a list of six things that God allegedly hates, and one he considers an abomination. The first two items on that list are a proud look and a lying tongue. Why is it that Christians, particularly those who think every word of the Bible was written by God, never concentrate any of their venomous judgement and well-financed lobbying on those two offenses?
There's a lot more vanity and deception out there than homosexuality. But rather than focus on these two offenses, among the first things their God is clearly said to hate, Bible thumpers are totally obsessed with one obscure passage that may or may not claim that homosexuality is an abomination.
If these people genuinely believe that the Bible is the word of God, and have dedicated their lives to following it, then why do they ignore that passage in the Book of Proverbs? Perhaps its because the seventh offense on that list, the one that God supposedly does consider an abomination, is one that doesn't fit well with their chosen lifestyle: him that soweth discord among brethren.
Hmm, that sounds a lot like the voters of Arizona.

If you're a regular here, you've probably read a few of our guest blog posts (feel free to subscribe, by the way).
This blog is a resource for everyone thinking about becoming a copywriter. If someone is considering a career change or looking for copywriting courses, they're going to be doing their homework. Before making such a life-changing decision, it's important to understand everything it involves.
The prospective copywriter wants to know what they can expect. They're interested in the nuts and bolts of everyday life as a freelance writer. How can they best market their services, how easy will it be for them to find work, how much can they charge, what to do if a client doesn't pay … and so the list goes on.
Sadly, too many websites paint an unrealistic view of the life of a copywriter. According to many we've seen, copywriters are fat cats who earn obscene amounts of money by just dreaming up the odd catchy slogan … in-between gin swilling and generally lazing around, of course. If that's a true representation of life as a copywriter, I've been doing something wrong all these years!
But while we can blog about our own experiences and our lives as freelance copywriters, it will only ever be one-dimensional. Everyone's experiences are different. We all have different strengths, weaknesses and opinions.
And that's why we're asking copywriters, proofreaders, and other professionals to become guest bloggers. Giving their views, advice, and sharing their experiences means we can build a realistic and honest resource for those wanting to launch a career in copywriting.
So, if you would like to share some of your knowledge and experience with our readers and write a guest blog for the Copywriting Apprentice, please get in touch.

Parramatta have snapped a two game losing streak and moved back into the NRL's top eight by defeating an out-of-sorts South Sydney 22-16 at ANZ Stadium tonight.
Souths endured a horrible first half where simple mistakes starved them of possession, to the point that ten minutes before halftime, the Eels had completed double the amount of sets of six than the home side.
Despite a late revival in the second half by the Rabbitohs, thanks to two late tries from Souths winger Alex Johnson, the Rabbitohs were very poor with basic handling errors at crucial times and the Bunnies back three allowing towering bombs from Mitchell Moses and Clint Gutherson to bounce on numerous occasions, highlighting a forgettable performance for Michael Maguire's men.
The Eels were terrific in the first half, with new halves combination Clint Gutherson and Mitchell Moses combining well, with each having a hand in the sides opening three first half tries.
New recruit Mitchell Moses got his new side off to a terrific start, when he put Tepai Moeroa into a yawning gap, with the backrower showing classy footwork on rookie centre Tyrel Fuimaono and fullback Cody Walker to score after just six minutes.
In is fair to say that fullback Walker has been one of Souths best this season, however the fullback had a nightmare start to the evening, when he let a bomb bounce which very nearly fell into the path of Semi Radradra. However things got a lot worse for the fullback, when he spilled a Clint Gutherson grubber in goal which fell into the path of Beau Scott who scored one of the easiest tries of his career. Gutherson then extended the Eels lead to ten points after Gutherson made up for his first missed conversion, by converting Scott's try.
Souths half Adam Reynolds then committed yet another Rabbitohs error, putting his kick out on the full on the last tackle and the Eels were threatening the Souths line yet again. Souths then gave away a penalty for leaving their defensive line too early and Gutherson pointed to the posts to extend the Eels lead to two converted tries.
Gutherson then got involved again, when he scooted out of dummy half deep in his own half, the five-eighth then put Semi Radradra away and the Toulon bound winger did the rest, streaking over halfway to score under the posts.
South Sydney coach Michael Maguire gave his side a real animated talk at halftime and it looked to improve their attitude early in the second half, with some ferocious hits early on and the Rabbitohs managed to build some pressure forcing back to back sets for the first time in the match.
Fortunes finally turned the Bunnies way, when Eels winger Radradra was stripped close to the Souths try line. Angus Critchton then picked up the ball with open space and managed to race away for a 90 metre run to score the Rabbitohs first try of the night.
Despite the home side receiving back to back penalties of the back of Critchton's try, Parramatta struck on their first opportunity in their attacking zone, when Moses put winger Josh Hoffman in some space down the right edge, the former Titan then managed a spectacular mid air put down to place the ball inside of the corner posts for a superb try. Gutherson missed from the sideline but the damage was done as the Eels lead 22-6.
Despite two late tries to Alex Johnson and a late comeback giving themselves three seconds to pull a rabbit out of thier hat, the miracle never looked like happening and was neither deserved with the Eels winning 22-16.
The Eels now will head into Round 13 looking to consolidate their position in the Top 8, when they host the Warriors back at ANZ Stadium next Friday night.
South Sydney meanwhile will need to do some self reflection as they have the bye and given tonight's performance it could not have come at a better time.

The wide-ranging benefits of beets have streamed into the public consciousness. Books, articles and food TV networks are caught up in the red rush. Athletes are also aboard the bandwagon, using beet juice to boost performance and aid recovery.
Outside the commonly known benefits of beets there are some additional perks and peculiarities you'll want to know when incorporating this proven superfood into your health and fitness routine.
Here are our top 10 beet-related fun facts.
Food is linked to a good mood, and beets are equipped with therapeutic benefits that deliver.
Their soothing effect derives from betaine, which is linked to increasing levels of serotonin, a feel happy chemical in our bodies.
Beets also help manage stress and anxiety, owing to the presence of uridine, a compound that maintains normal dopamine levels.
If you need to get your bowel movement going, choose beets.
They are stocked with fiber that keeps waste matter flowing through the intestines, thereby speeding up the exit process.
To utilize their natural laxative effects, it's best to consume beets raw or juiced.
Since we've mentioned colon health, don't be alarmed if you notice a redness in stool or urine after consuming beets.
The sight may be initially troubling, but it's harmless.
The color change is simply linked to the body failing to properly break down betacyanins, the chemical that makes beets red in the first place.
Boiling or baking is generally the preferred method of cooking them, but beets can also be steamed. Vapor better exploits the nutrients of beets.
Simply scrub them clean and place in a steamer whole over rapidly boiling water. Steam for around 15 minutes or until a fork can be inserted easily.
There are a variety of other ways to enjoy your beets; here are our favorites.
Beets were used as a natural aphrodisiac by the ancient Romans. Turns out it wasn't just mythology – there is a scientific basis to back it up.
Beets are packed with boron, which is directly linked with increased testosterone levels in men.
Sure, libido is important, but love is what matters most. Here, beets deliver yet again.
Many cultures adhere to the belief that if a man and woman eat from the same beet they will fall in love.
Perhaps this is linked to its aphrodisiac properties, but it's surely no coincidence that beets and beet greens (roughly) resemble the shape of a human heart.
The reason so many athletes are reaching for beet juice is that it has been proven to fuel athletic performance and fast-track recovery. This is thanks to the rich nitrate content of beets, which is automatically converted into nitric oxide by our bodies.
Nitric oxide helps increase blood and oxygen flow, reducing fatigue and hastening muscle recovery.
The benefits of beets even stretch to dandruff control – is there anything this wonder vegetable can't do?
For this dandruff-beating home remedy boil beets, let the red-colored water cool, and massage it into your skull each night. Cover with a towel, sleep on it and wash out the water (and snow flakes) the next morning.
Just another reason why beets are head and shoulders above the rest.
There's good reason why beets are great for desserts – they contain high levels of naturally occurring sugars. Don't fret; these sugars are converted effectively by our bodies, meaning sudden rises in glucose levels in the blood stream are avoided.
Their sweetness doesn't come with a high calorie count either – beets are extremely low in calories and are practically fat free.
Beets carry a variety of nutrients that help us look and feel young. From maintaining eye health to keeping skin looking healthy as we get older, beets are a true anti-aging crusader.
Due to the improved blood flow to the brain that beets generate, they also help stave off dementia in older adults.

Adding password protection to manually installed management profiles
While working with some colleagues, I recently built a management profile that my one colleague requested to be set as non-removable. Normally, this can be accomplished by setting the PayloadRemovalDisallowed key in the profile to a boolean value of true.
I provided the profile to my colleague and he tested it out. However, in the course of testing, he discovered that the profile could be removed by a user with administrative rights using the following procedure:
1. Open System Preferences
2. Select the profile in question.
3. Click the minus button.
4. Be warned about removing a locked profile.
5. Enter admin credentials when prompted.
After entering admin credentials, the profile was then removed.
When I checked Apple's reference documentation on configuration profiles, the issue came down to how the profile was being delivered. Apple's documentation includes the following note about the PayloadRemovalDisallowed key:
|Note: OSX versions 10.10 and later honor a true value of the PayloadRemovalDisallowed key
|to prevent manual removal of profiles installed through an MDM server. Such profiles cannot
|be removed using the Profiles preference pane, nor the profiles command line tool even when
|run as root. Only the MDM server can remove such profiles. Profiles installed manually, with
|PayloadRemovalDisallowed set to true, can be removed manually, but only by using administrative authority.
This profile was being installed by an installer package, so from Apple's point of view it was being installed manually. That meant that the manual installation behavior, where the profile could be removed by anyone with admin rights, was the applicable behavior here.
Another colleague working with us on this issue suggested adding a removal password to the profile, using Apple's com.apple.profileRemovalPassword profile payload.
A removal password for a profile is designed to allow the removal of a management profile, even if that profile is otherwise set to be non-removable. For more details, see below the jump:
Kernel extensions and macOS High Sierra
As part of the pre-release announcements about macOS High Sierra, Apple released the following KBase article:
- Prepare your institution for iOS 11, macOS High Sierra, or macOS Server 5.4: https://support.apple.com/HT207828
As part of the KBase article, Apple included a Changes coming with macOS High Sierra section which featured this note:
macOS High Sierra introduces a new feature that requires user approval before loading new third-party kernel extensions. This feature will require changes to some apps and installers in order to preserve the desired user experience.
That section in turn links to this KBase article, which describes the behavior in more detail:
- Prepare for changes to kernel extensions in macOS High Sierra: https://support.apple.com/kb/HT208019
To improve security on the Mac, kernel extensions installed with or after the installation of macOS High Sierra require user consent in order to load. This is known as User Approved Kernel Extension Loading. Any user can approve a kernel extension, even if they don't have administrator privileges.
What's all this mean? For more details, see below the jump.

The term 'occupancy' is a hot topic when talking about highbay LED lighting. The problem is that when you talk to an Operations Manager at a warehouse or manufacturing facility, 'occupancy' represents how busy the facility is. If you are running a 3PL warehouse, you like to see the racks filled to the rafters. In fact, these facilities are designed so that 60% to 70% of the facility, at the very least, is used frequently. So when Digital Lumens comes into the facility and tells the an Operations Manager that it is only 20% "occupied", we often get stares of disbelief. That's because 'occupancy' in our world means something entirely different. It means how long a light needs to be on.
And it turns out that most lights in most facilities don't have to be on 100% of the time – creating a major energy-savings opportunity. Typically, each light only needs to be on briefly – especially when you figure that the average warehouse has one employee for every 10,000 square feet. It's pretty difficult for a forklift operator to be everywhere every moment of the day, so why should you pay to light spaces where your operators aren't?
And that's where the many benefits of highbay LED lights come into play. Unlike conventional lighting sources, LED lighting is immune to the life-cycle reduction problems that plague fluorescents, so they're easily integrated with occupancy sensors that aggressively turn them on and off based upon local activity. Intelligently and rapidly turning LED lights on and off saves huge amounts of energy and money – without compromising facility safety of performance or lighting lifetimes. In fact, LED lifetime is measured in 'on time' <link to our earlier blog post on LED lifetime>, so every moment that the fixture is off is another moment of calendar lifetime for the LED. (Worth noting is that conventional lighting, such as fluorescent fixtures, can't be turned on an off too frequently without greatly lowering the life of the fixture and tubes, as well as potentially violating the warranty.)
But back to occupancy. What Digital Lumens and our network of resellers mean when we discuss occupancy in industrial LED lighting is what percentage of overall time any one highbay LED light will be on. For many facilities, that number is 20%.
So, instead of continuing to use the same word for lighting that also pertains to inventory levels, we've started using the term 'Total Lighting Time' to refer to what percentage of time lights need to be on to support the general activity patterns in a facility. Does this mean that a facility isn't busy if we say that occupancy is 20%? No. Just the opposite. The busier the facility is, the more rapidly the lights will cycle on and off as staff move through. But because operators are moving quickly through an area, lights cycle on and off, meaning that the lights aren't staying on any longer than needed. And, as described in 'Black is the New Green', the more you can lower the Total Lighting Time by turning off the light, the more money you can save.
In our next post, I'll dig into how managing settings in the lighting system make all the difference.

Norwalk taxpayers have until Monday, Feb. 1, to pay without being charged interest
NORWALK -- Norwalk taxpayers have until Monday to pay their property tax bills for real estate, motor vehicle, and business personal property taxes, as well as sewer-use charges, without incurring interest penalties.
The bills reflect the second installment of charges due on the city's Grand List of Oct. 1, 2014.
"Interest on late payments will be charged at the rate of 3 percent beginning on Tuesday, Feb. 2," said Tax Collector Lisa Biagiarelli. "This represents 1.5 percent per month for two months, January and February. This rate will remain the same throughout February."
To avoid such penalties, taxpayers must pay by Monday, Feb. 1. They have a number of payment options.
The Norwalk Tax Collector's Office is open Monday through Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., in Room 125 of City Hall, 105 East Ave.
Taxpayers are encouraged to pay by mail. Payments postmarked by the U.S. Postal Service on or before Feb. 1 are timely regardless of when they are received by the Tax Collector's Office.
Alternatively, taxpayers may pay at Norwalk bank branch locations of Patriot National Bank, Webster Bank, TD Bank, Norwalk Bank and Trust, and Fairfield County Bank.
"There is no charge for the service of paying at the bank, and the taxpayer does not need to be a customer of the bank in order to walk in and pay there, but he or she must bring a current tax bill," Biagiarelli said.
Taxpayers may pay online with their credit card or by ACH payment ("E Check") by visiting the city's website at www.norwalkct.org and clicking the 'Online Payments/Tax Bill Lookup" link.
The fee for paying with an "E Check" is $1.50. Taxpayers may also call (866) 974-8090 toll-free and pay over the telephone using their credit or debit card.
Credit, debit and ATM cards may also be used to pay in person at City Hall.
Taxpayers who are unsure about what they may owe may look up their taxes online by accessing the "Online Payments/Tax Bill Lookup" feature on the city's website, or by coming to the Tax Collector's office for more information.
"Failure to have received a tax bill does NOT exempt the taxpayer from interest charges. Interest is charged on all late payments, with absolutely no exception," Biagiarelli said.

Bouncing Inside a Pyramid
I guess, i finally managed to make the moving balls to bounce out of a new environment, different than our typical cube, this would open a new horizons for my simulation experiments Now i can use different kind of environment, vary in shape size and orientation, it could be a typical symmetrical geometry, or a non uniform shape, and in further stages, we might have new interactive transformable organic environment. with this new method, we can also assign more than one environment for the same movers, in an intersected or adjacent settings. I imagine that i can build multiple environments inside the same big container environment, and then to have some of movers with the ability to pass through space to another, some to be stocked inside the first one, and some , maybe with changeable characteristics when it pass through one space to another, just imagining.

TAPS Organizers Hope Thousands Will Post Thank You Notes, Photos and Videos Before Memorial Day
WASHINGTON – March 9, 2011 — Less than one percent of Americans today serve in the military but anyone can express their gratitude and support for the families of our fallen military through a new website at www.GiveAThousandThanks.org.
Organized by the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS), the Give a Thousand Thanks project aims to collect thousands of messages, photos and videos from across the country that remind the loved ones left behind after a service member dies that America remembers and appreciates the service and sacrifice their families have made.
The Give a Thousand Thanks website (www.GiveAThousandThanks.org) is easy to use and anyone can post a thank you message, photo or video. All submissions are reviewed. Easy tools enable site visitors to share the project website on Facebook and Twitter with their friends.
"Saying 'thank you' may seem simple, but it reminds survivors that their loved ones and the sacrifices they have made are not forgotten," said Bonnie Carroll, TAPS founder and chairman. "People often ask us what they can do to help military families who have experienced the death of a service member. Expressing your gratitude is a great first step."
The site's "Thanks in Action" page lists other ways to get involved in helping the families of our fallen military. Users can learn about how to volunteer, donate to support TAPS services for surviving families, join the TAPS Run & Remember Team or purchase a Baghdad bracelet to wear.
"Community support plays a role in helping surviving families. It takes five to seven years for survivors of traumatic loss to reach their new normal. No one should have to make that journey alone," said Carroll. "The Give a Thousand Thanks project gives America a way to show its care and support for these families who have sacrificed so much for their country."
The Give a Thousand Thanks project was a natural fit for Telos® Corporation. "We originally got involved with TAPS three years ago, when one of our employees had a friend go through losing a loved one who served in Iraq. The family turned to TAPS for help in coping with their loss," said John Wood, CEO of Telos Corporation.
"We saw what TAPS does for the families of our fallen military, so we began donating to TAPS and built a relationship with their staff and families," said Wood. "Lending our technical expertise to assist TAPS with a website for the Give a Thousand Thanks project is something we are very happy to do. We hope thousands of people will post a thank you message, photo or video for the families to see."
The messages, photos and videos posted on the site will be displayed at the TAPS National Military Survivor Seminar & Good Grief Camp being held near Washington over Memorial Day weekend, where they will be seen by hundreds of surviving families of our fallen military. Postcards can also be mailed in and will be displayed at the event.
The website will gain additional functionalities in a few weeks, including an interactive map showing the locations of participants, as well as a search function and running tally of the number of messages, photos and videos submitted.
About TAPS
The Give a Thousand Thanks project is organized nationally by the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS). TAPS is the national organization providing compassionate care to anyone grieving the death of someone who served in the military. TAPS provides peer-based emotional support, grief and trauma resources, seminars for adults, Good Grief Camps for children, case work assistance, and 24/7 crisis care for all who have been affected by a death in the Armed Forces. Services are provided free of charge. Founded in 1994 out of tragedy by bereaved military families, the nonprofit organization has offered support to more than 30,000 people. For more information go to www.taps.org or call toll-free 800.959.TAPS.

Airy then at length published an account of the circumstances, and Adams's memoir was printed as an appendix to the Nautical Almanac. A keen controversy arose in France and England as to the merits of the two astronomers.
The bay extends northward nearly 162 nautical miles, with a maximum breadth of II m.
This important proposal, the germ of the Nautical Almanac, was approved of by the government, and under the care of Maskelyne the Nautical Almanac for 1767 was published in 1766.

His planetary and solar tables were adopted by the Nautical Almanac, as well as by the Connaissance des temps.
Among the most prominent secular buildings are: the Tergesteo, a huge edifice containing a cruciform arcade roofed with glass, where the exchange is established, besides numerous shops and offices; the town-hall, rebuilt in 1874, with the handsome hall of the local Diet; the imposing old exchange, now the seat of the chamber of commerce; the palatial offices of the Austrian Lloyd, the principal shipping company; the commercial and nautical academy, with its natural history museum, containing the complete fauna of the Adriatic Sea; and finally the municipal museum, Revoltella, are all worth mentioning.

One of the largest alligators taken during the 2018 season was a 12-foot, 537-pounder taken by (from left) Tyler Dees, Thomas Dees, Mike Odom and Crystal Dees.
The 2018 season for alligators is in the books. Alabama hunters harvested 144 alligators, the heaviest weighing in at 700 pounds. A total of 260 tags were issued in the four hunting zones.
The Southwest Zone, which includes the Mobile-Tensaw Delta, checked in 96 alligators. Josh Forbes of Mobile County recorded the heaviest catch at 603 pounds. The longest gator was a 12-foot, 9-incher taken by Donald White of Stockton that weighed 588 pounds. Of the gators harvested in the Southwest Zone, which had 150 tags, 73 were males and 23 females.
John Herthum of Montgomery took the 700-pound gator, which measured 11 feet, 10 inches, in the Southeast Zone, which includes private and public waters in Barbour, Coffee, Covington, Dale, Geneva, Henry, Houston and Russell counties. Herthum's big gator was among 10 harvested in that zone, which issued 40 tags.
"There was nothing abnormal about this past season," said Chris Nix, alligator program coordinator with the Alabama Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries Division. "The alligators were a little smaller on average weight and length. There were more females harvested, which definitely had an effect on the average size.
"The weather was great this year. The number of tags filled just had to do with hunter selection. We still only had a few alligators harvested south of I-10. There are a lot of big alligators down there that are not being hunted."
In the West Central Zone — where Mandy Stokes' record alligator of 1,011.5 pounds and 15 feet long was taken in 2014 — the 50 tag holders harvested 31 alligators. Of the 19 males and 12 females harvested, Donald Hogue of Alabaster harvested the largest at 12 feet, 3 inches and weighing 538 pounds.
Seven alligators were taken in the Lake Eufaula Zone. Shannon Brasher of Odenville took the longest alligator at 11 feet, 7 inches.
High school legends honored
There will be 11 new names inducted into the 29th class of the Alabama High School Sports Hall of Fame. The group will be inducted during a banquet at the Renaissance Montgomery Hotel and Spa on March 18.
Two of those being recognized with local connections are Phil Lazenby and Billy Odom. The rest of the group include football coaches David Lowery, Willie Carl Martin and Ronnie Sikes; basketball coaches Carolyn Wright and Schuessler Ware; track coach Claborn Campbell; baseball coach Mark Mincher; basketball official Johnny Robertson; and longtime coach and administrator Reynolds "R.C." Cook.
The first Hall of Fame class was inducted in 1991. These 11 new inductees will run the total enshrined into the Alabama High School Sports Hall of Fame to 353.
Lazenby is a graduate of Bessemer High School (1968), Samford University (1974) and University of Montevallo (master's in 1979). He played on Samford's 1971 national championship football team and was selected Most Valuable Defensive Player for Samford in 1973.
His longtime career in teaching and coaching began as an assistant football and head tennis coach at Bessemer's Jess Lanier High School from 1976-80. He spent 2001 to 2006 at UMS-Wright as assistant coach and strength and conditioning coach.
Lazenby has been the director of football operations at Bayside Academy since 2007. His overall head coaching record is 169-89 with two state championship game appearances at Benjamin Russell and one at Bayside Academy. His teams have had just two losing seasons in 21 years and have reached the state playoffs 17 times.
Lazenby has served as an assistant and head coach in the Alabama-Mississippi All-Star Game, was Alabama Sports Writers Association Coach of the Year in 1997, 2011 and 2015, and has served as past president of the Alabama Football Coaches Association. He was inducted into the Samford Athletic Hall of Fame in 2018. Away from football, he served in the U.S. Army infantry, reaching the rank of first sergeant with tours in Europe and Central America.
Odom graduated from Baker High School in 1968 and Mississippi College in 1972. He served as a teacher and head football coach at Baker for 14 seasons (1972-87), moved to Murphy as an assistant coach from 1989-91 and returned as head coach at Alba High School from 1992-97. His Alba team won the regional title in 1994.
Odom's work as a coach and teacher was just part of his contribution. He played a key role in the development and administration of the Alabama-Mississippi All-Star Football Game in Mobile from its inception in 1988. He has been a key administrative coach for that game ever since, heading into his 33rd year. He has also served as the South team manager in the Senior Bowl for the last three decades.
Recognized as one of Mobile County's most dependable volunteers, he received the prestigious Bob Pannone Service Award in 2017 and was recognized with the L'Arche Mobile Lifetime Achievement Award in 2012.
Many More Miles campaign returns
The 16th annual Many More Miles campaign is currently in process. Local runners and exercise enthusiasts may donate their old running shoes to land on the feet of someone who really needs them.
Baldwin Bone & Joint is again hosting this community project. They are partnering with the Port City Pacers, Dr. Glenn Glass, the University of South Alabama Student Recreation Center and local schools to collect shoes for the homeless outreach programs of Wings of Life and, for the first year, Family Promise of Baldwin County.
There were 200 pairs donated in 2004. Last year, the donations were just under 2,000 pairs. This year, shoes will be acccepted until the final drop-offs at the Azalea Trail Run in March.
Students in Mobile and Baldwin counties again are being given the opportunity to collect shoes and earn money for their schools' physical education programs. Baldwin Bone & Joint will award cash prizes to the top three schools donating the most shoes.
Those interested in participating are encouraged to clean up those gently used athletic shoes, tie them together in pairs and drop them off at any of the following locations: Baldwin Bone & Joint (1505 Daphne Ave., Daphne), Dr. Glenn Glass' Office (1303 Main St., Daphne), the University of South Alabama Student Recreation Center; participating schools in Mobile and Baldwin counties; and the Azalea Trail Run Expo (Friday and Saturday, March 22-23, Mobile Civic Center).

Take a look at the built landscape of Colorado Springs and the Pikes Peak region.
What you see — shopping malls, big-box stores, comfortable suburbs and cookie-cutter office complexes — could be anywhere in the American West. The goal, as Mayor John Suthers says, is to build a city worthy of our extraordinary setting, but we haven't always succeeded.
It's fair to say that creative, vibrant cities are in some measure defined by their buildings. In recent decades, business, political and nonprofit leaders have recreated Denver, scattering interesting new structures across the city. Imagine Denver now without its convention center, Coors Field, Pepsi Center, Sports Authority Field, the downtown library, the Museum of Contemporary Art, the reborn Union Station, the Hamilton wing of the Denver Art Museum or the Millennium Bridge. These buildings aren't just of Denver; they are Denver.
Does the Chapel Hills Mall, the Martin Drake Power Plant, Motor City or the new I-25/Cimarron interchange define us? These functional utilitarian constructs are hardly the stuff of dreams. Our aspirational buildings are mostly those we have inherited, like City Hall, the City Auditorium, the Pioneers Museum and the historic places of worship that ring downtown.
But maybe we're on the verge of a new architectural era, one that will redefine Colorado Springs and the region.
"The Olympic Museum will change the dynamics of the city more than any building in our history," said architect Mike Collins, a Colorado Springs native who has worked here for more than 50 years. "It'll attract worldwide attention — it's a major national project."
The museum is noteworthy enough by itself, but it's not alone. One era-defining building has just been completed, one is under construction and another will formally break ground next year. It's true that one swallow doesn't make a spring, but these four buildings, with an aggregate cost of more than $200 million, may show us that the past is but prologue.
Iin other words, you ain't seen nothing yet!
Colorado Springs leaders have had an Olympic Museum and Hall of Fame on their wish list for at least 30 years. Absent an appropriate site, a credible funding plan and determined private-sector leadership, their wishes went unfulfilled. That all changed in 2013, thanks to former Colorado College President Dick Celeste and then-Mayor Steve Bach, who spearheaded the city's successful application for state funding via the Colorado Regional Tourism Act. That set the stage for major financial commitments from individuals, businesses and foundations. Fundraising for the $80 million museum project is near completion.
"With approximately $6 million left to raise for construction, and $18 million remaining for the total project," according to an Oct. 3 release, "museum supporters are confident in the new energy heading into the final stage of fundraising."
"We are close." said Celeste, who's heading up the fundraising effort. "We have renewed enthusiasm from many stakeholders, and we're confident that the construction process will begin in the next few months."
The striking building, designed by New York City-based Diller Scofidio + Renfro, will occupy a 1.6-acre lot at the now-forlorn intersection of West Vermijo Avenue and South Sierra Madre Street. Expectations for the building are high, as they should be — the firm's work earned it a MacArthur Foundation genius grant in 2004.
It had been clear since the late 1980s that the Pikes Peak Summit House needed to be replaced, but money and politics got in the way. A 1990s Pikes Peak master plan called for both building a new summit structure and paving the Pikes Peak highway, but a Sierra Club lawsuit forced the city to prioritize paving, drainage and environmental remediation.
Bach restarted the process soon after his election in 2011, and Parks and Recreation Director Karen Palus somehow managed to move the project forward. Doing so required the cooperation and assent of a dozen powerful organizations, including the U.S. Army, U.S. Forest Service, Department of the Interior, Pikes Peak Cog Railway and Colorado Springs Utilities. To be financed by highway and concessionaire revenues, lodging and auto rental tax collections and revenue bonds, the project will break ground (or, more accurately, break rock) next spring.
The airy, sunlit design, created by RTA Architects of Colorado Springs in partnership with Baltimore-based partners GWWO Architects, will allow the removal of a half-dozen functionally obsolete buildings from the summit (including the dismal, windowless 1965 Summit House). More than 500,000 people visit the summit annually, so the new building will instantly become a classic Colorado experience. Will it surpass that of the present donut shop/T-shirt emporium?
"That's a very low bar," said RTA's Stuart Coppedge in an interview earlier this year. "I certainly hope so!"
Building a $60 million arts complex isn't in the cards for most medium-sized public universities, much less for those in states that allocate so few dollars to higher education.
But there's only one Pamela Shockley-Zalabak, and she's the chancellor of UCCS. So when Shockley-Zalabak first started talking about the proposed arts center a few years ago, the community knew that it would be built — and soon.
It's been a year since the August 2015 groundbreaking, and construction is well underway. Designed by New York firm H3 Hardy Collaboration Architecture, with Denver's Semple Brown Design serving as the architect of record, the flowing, sinuous building occupies an elevated site on the west side of the UCCS campus on North Nevada Avenue across from University Village Colorado shopping center.
"I think what is unique is that within the 92,000-square-foot building there are four performance venues," said J.E. Dunn contract manager Gary Vineyard. "Typically in this square footage there would be two. We are combining multiple types of high-end performance spaces on campus, which creates challenges and great opportunities for the campus, the project and the city."
"The new Center for Character and Leadership Development [at the U.S. Air Force Academy] is one of the most important pieces of architecture to go up in Colorado — perhaps, in the entire West — in decades," Ray Rinaldi wrote in the Denver Post month ago. "That's bold praise, but not less than this assertive building deserves; it rises with precision and purity, with shrewd sensitivity to its circumstances and with an abundant belief in the power of design to inspire great action."
Praise indeed, if a little overblown.
Yet Polaris Hall, whose transparent "airfoil" spire will point to the North Star for generations to come, is ambitious and beautiful. In form and spirit, it seems to echo the transcendent 1962 Cadet Chapel, and for good reason. Walter Netsch of Skidmore, Owings and Merrill designed the chapel, and SOM was selected to design the $46 million Polaris Hall building.
Private funders contributed $18 million to the project, enabling the architects to create a building that soars and inspires, not one that's merely good enough for government work.
The USAFA campus is in its entirety a signal achievement of modernist architecture, little altered from its original 1950s conception. Any addition, especially one within a short walk of the Cadet Chapel, is inherently problematic.
Time will tell, but it may be that SOM has hit another home run.
Four good (maybe even great) public buildings — are there more to come? If the regional economy remains strong, will commercial and civic builders hold themselves to a higher standard? That remains to be seen.
"So much in architecture is budget- and client-dependent," said Andrea Barker, a principal at HB&A Architects in Colorado Springs. "Every commercial project has very pragmatic beginnings."
Barker's firm designed the Blue Dot Apartments on South Nevada Avenue. Developers Kathy Loo and Darsey Nicklasson didn't have an unlimited budget, but the Blue Dot is nevertheless a wonderful improvement to a once-dreary block.
"Our civic structures can be great," continued Barker. "I'm a member of the First Congregational Church, which was built by the people who founded Colorado College. I would hope that (in our new public buildings) we're elevating the city, and not just in appearance — that we're reaching for the future."
And it may be that architects and builders will figure out ways to overcome budgetary constraints. The Cadet Chapel as originally designed had 19 spires, but budgetary considerations forced Walter Netsch to cut it to 17.
That's a 10 percent cut. In retrospect, we're probably lucky that Netsch didn't specify 17 to begin with — the bean counters might have cut it to 15.

This is for my twin brother, who is currently suffering from deep depression because of some of the experiences he has faced till now. I want an urgent help in this regards to bring him out of it and re-develop his self confidence.
However there is a very old history of our failures which might be a possible cause for this aggression. But the major reason which I am able to understand is, the REGRET of not utilising the time and resources and REGRET for not getting adequate support and Guidance in respect to the Career perspective. Also, there is a sense of discouragement that our father has retired and we are yet not settled and are unable to support our parents at their old age.
Although, He is a curious Mechanical Engineer who has an ambition to become a scientist in AeroSpace Domain. having a good base for his subject, yet he is unable to gain confidence to focus for his ambition.
Each day I have observed him talking with self over and over, repeating to him, about his failed steps and opportunities he had missed and also sometimes day dreaming about what he want to achieve and what he will do after that. But, as what I am able to see, this has somewhere developed obsession in him for achieving the only goal to be scientist, and he as lost all his confidence to make good amount of efforts to reach that dream. He nearly scares in taking any steps assuming it to be a failed step again.
Recent, he joined an organisation in a hope to be able to learn something new, which was working on some project which relates his interest for aerospace engineering, but there he was ill-treated by his manager. He was made to sit idle for nearly 10 Hours daily in an isolated environment and was forced to stay at office till late night without any work, sometimes with a little work. all his modes of communication with the manager were taken away and again he faced being lectured and discouragement for No reason.
Now, since he objected the ill-behaviour of his manager who eventually was abusing him "don't give me that f**k, I am paying you, you don't deserve to be here" and forcing him to work for nearly 16 hours a day and also calling on SUNDAYS, He was forcefully terminated within a Month, stating "Behavioural Issues" and incapability, despite the fact that, he was truly punctual with his office hours for which He started his day at 5:00 in the morning and was coming back at 11:30 at night. and was very quick in his work and has never left the work incomplete, also His pay was also not given to him.
Facing all these Issues, now all his senses are nearly hanged and he is unable to decide the next step and also I can see a lot of discouragement on his face with nearly NO Confidence at all. His appetite has also drastically reduced.
I Hereby, Request for a proper resolution to this problem, as I fear for him and his future.
Hoping for a resolution
Thank you for writing on this platform. It takes a lot of courage to talk about these things and I am glad that you decided to write about this and look for solutions rather than doing nothing about it.
I'm sorry about what happened with your brother and i understand that how bad it must have been if you had to reach out for help. Given all the things he has gone through at his work place along with ill treatment and misbehavior and abuse from his manager's side, it is no wonder that he feels that discouraged.
It would be a good thing if you could try to bring your brother him of his shell that he has created for himself. It would be good if you could also start getting him to interact with others, rather than just being by himself. Being left alone for a long time with nothing to do can cause more damage than good at times, so try to get him to get back to his normal routine slowly.
I recommend that you get your brother to talk one of our experts on the platform through a chat session. There are many experienced Clinical Psychologists who will be able to help him deal with all the things he has been facing and going through. It will be more beneficial for him to talk with an expert directly than going through you as a medium.
You can reach out to our experts through their profiles on the platform.You can also get in touch with the customer support and they will connect you with an appropriate expert who expertise lies in the issues you mention.
I understand that being a brother you are very concerned about your brother and his future ahead. And you have done the right thing by acting upon the issue. But now it is your brother who has to take a step forward and accept the help he will be given here.
Regards,Shraddha Durg (Expert).

Happiness Index Analysis
Nathan Aune | Cody Buchanan | Joseph Sumalbag
We looked at the overall satisfaction of life right now in comparison with people from our class, Seattle University, University of Washington, and people with high and low levels of stress from their personal income levels. We found that the group with the highest level of overall satisfaction, from a scale of 1-10, with life right now is the people with the least amount of stress from their personal incomes at a level of 7.87. The second highest overall satisfaction is actually our happiness class with a score of 7.64. Seattle University students come in at third with an overall satisfaction level of 7.38. University of Washington students have an overall level of satisfaction with their lives at a score of 5.97. The lowest group of the overall level of satisfaction comes from the group with high stress from their level of income at a score of 4.2. As we can see from the data, Seattle university students have a much higher level of life satisfaction compared to students at University of Washington by over a full point. The most interesting part of this data has to be how the different levels of stress due to financial issues play such an important role in our satisfaction with our life. The people with the lowest amount of stress from their financial issues have a score of nearly 4 points higher than the people with extremely high levels of financial stress.
Before finding this data, we always knew that financial stress plays an important role in how satisfied people are in life. However, we did not think that money can influence people's overall satisfaction as dramatically as this data shows. The first potential explanation for this difference is from the class discussion on what Notorious B.I.G said, "Mo' Money equals Mo' problems", which we are going to translate to more income equals less happiness. We discussed how this was wrong because having more money opens doors to do things that other people with less money may not be able to do. For example, our friend has been raised with significantly more family money than most people I know. He has been raised to do whatever he wants and is always asking to go and do things or buy things. He is always in a good mood and lives a very satisfied life. He can buy or do whatever he wants because he has the money and does not have to worry about his financial situation. We know other friends that are in an opposite position and have a lot less money. They have to go to school and then go straight to work after just help pay for their housing and food. This money they make from work helps them stay afloat and in school. They have no extra money to go do things or buy whatever they want. They are constantly stressing about their financial situation and it causes their overall life satisfaction to decrease. However, these friends do not show how dis satisfied they actually are. They put on a smile, so people would never know how dissatisfied they truly are. Having more money causes less financial stress on people, which in turn does play a role in impacting people's overall satisfaction with life. This ties into our second explanation of this data which is less about being able to buy things that then make you happy but instead the lack of being able to buy things or the constant focus on your negative financial status causes you to be blinded by the things in your life that would make you happy regardless of money. Things such as family, friends, and social interactions are all things that can make us very happy and don't rely on monetary funds. Our theory is that we can become so consumed with our poor financial status that we use it as a reasoning to say everything in life at this moment is not how it should be. As college students is it easy for us to look at the way we are living and feel unhappy because our financial stability is not what we want it to be. Even though we may be working towards a stable life and we could be surrounded by good friends and fun times we still dwell on the stress that comes with financial insecurities. How we would propose to then test these theories farther and to find out which one carries a stronger weight will come from how much happier your experiences can be with more money and how much happier can you be when you take your financial hardships out of your evaluation process. Our suggestions include a social experiment in which a person is given a large budget to go enjoy a day in the city and then a much smaller budget the next day. Observations will be made about where the person decides to go, what they eat, the activities they perform, who they do them with, and the amount of social interactions they have. After each day they will be asked a series of questions to help us derive the amount of happiness they felt. Our proposal for our second explanation is simpler. We think you could get some good data from asking the respondent a series of questions that will paint a picture of their overall happiness in the moment. The first time they answer the survey we will ask them to choose their answers with completely ignoring their current financial status. The second time around we will ask them to then factor finances in and see how they evaluate aspects of their life then.
