How does a house "leaks" wealth or have problems accumulating wealth?
The following are ways that a house "leaks" wealth:
- The first thing one sees when opening the front door is the stove
- Seeing another door or windows directly upon opening the front door (leaking wealth)
- Too many windows in the living room (leaking energy/ qi)
- Too many windows in the bedroom (leaking qi, not accumulating qi)
- Wealth position* has a sink/ water tap (leaking wealth)
- Living room is small (indoor ming-tang, limits wealth potential)
- Space outside the main door is very small (limits wealth potential)
- Tall building or mountain in front of house, creating pressure to residents
- There is a beam over the wealth position (means working very hard for money)
- There is a road at the back of the house
- There is a road at the right side of the house
*Note: check my other articles on wealth position of a house.

text: Do constitutions safeguard the rights of women? What is the importance of constitutions in the context of defending women's rights? These questions are often raised within the framework of gender studies and organizations calling for women's rights. Why is this the case? There are three considerations to bear in mind. First, there is the critique aimed at liberal feminism, on the grounds of the latter's excessive focus on reforming and amending laws to secure women's rights, while ignoring, to a large extent, the prevalent authoritative system and social norms which can obstruct the implementation of just laws that are beneficial to society. This can lead to unanticipated results that may not necessarily be in the interest of women and may not achieve the expected goal.

After spending time researching school districts and areas, then giving the list of districts (I pre-approved) to the kids for their own research purposes, we've settled on where we plan to plant ourselves next. They're pretty excited about it, which is really nice. I'm pretty excited simply because I've been wanting out of this immediate area for pretty much the entire past 20 years!
So now that we are sure where we want to go, I've refocused my job searching to businesses and organizations in that immediate area. There does seem to be a lot more opportunity there than there was here — so that's a positive. 🙂
The road map I'm working now is to find a job in that area, commute as necessary until I've saved up enough money to begin looking for a rental. Not my first choice, but pretty sure that I'm not going to have many other options. The rental prices are a bit pricey, but I'm hoping to work it out (yanno, after I secure a job or two, or three… whatever I have to do!). I just want the fresh start away from all the negativity where we are now.
I'm finally understanding what kept me here so long — pure, unadulterated fear of not being able to do it!! This is certainly the hardest thing I've ever done and it doesn't seem like it's going to get much easier any time in the near future. But one day at a time, and it will surely work itself out. Just need to keep positive and hopeful and try to keep letting all the negativity roll off my back. Trying to get the kids to do the same, since they are unfortunately stuck as prime targets in an effort to get to me. 🙁
I wish he'd take the time to realize that he's ruining their view of him all on his own. It's not like they are little kids with no common sense and no ability to assess situations. They understand everything he says and everything he does. Most of which he shouldn't be doing with them around. They're drawing their own conclusions based on the behaviors they're witnessing and the petty crap he's slinging at me.
I shouldn't talk bad about him, either.. but at least I try to keep it away from them!
So, anyway… yea — that's the plan.
Until next time, just gonna keep on trying to keep on! LOL

Wood Wardens address Sherrardspark Wood management issues in a letter published in Welwyn Hatfield Times, July 9 2014.
SIR - Peter Oakenfull's Nature Watch article in the Times magazine (July 1 2014) is very critical of management work carried out in Sherrardspark Wood.
The Sherrardspark Wood Wardens are firm supporters of the works (see our website for our management evaluation). In our view the benefits of the works are now really starting to show with massive regeneration of oaks and other tree species and dense bramble and scrub cover developing where more light now reaches the woodland floor. It is simply not the case as Peter claims in his article that the works have destroyed the bramble and scrub cover - the opposite is true. Our monitoring is also showing that the wildlife is already benefiting in many ways.
The wood owes its protection to its designation by Natural England as an oak/hornbeam woodland. In fact, in a national review of woodlands, Sherrardspark Wood was described as containing 'the finest stand of sessile oak in southeast England'. The management works are designed to safeguard the magnificent oaks for which the wood is so famous whilst allowing enough space and light for the next generation of oaks to become established to be able to take over when the big old trees finally succumb. The removal of some of the sweet chestnuts will free up space for the oaks around them and encourage more tree regeneration. It is a fact that, compared with oak, sweet chestnut supports low numbers and biomass of invertebrates but is also casts a dense shade and produces a very acid leaf litter both of which suppress the regeneration of other species. In our view the removal of some sweet chestnuts, magnificent though they are, is entirely justified by the overall benefits it will bring to the wood.
Executive Committee, Sherrardspark Wood Wardens Society

Setting Up an Online Business Abroad: 10 Tips for Success
Traveling abroad and setting up an online business may seem like the stuff of dreams for many people""but the truth is it has never been more achievable. Writers, designers, teachers, entrepreneurs, marketers, PAs""they are all out there already, based in apartments in Beijing and beach huts in Mozambique, earning a living in the most liberating way possible. Fancy doing something similar yourself? As someone who has been making a living overseas for over half a decade, here are a few tips to get you started.
Traveling abroad and setting up an online business may seem like the stuff of dreams for many people""but the truth is it has never been more achievable.
Writers, designers, teachers, entrepreneurs, marketers, PAs""they are all out there already, based in apartments in Beijing and beach huts in Mozambique, earning a living in the most liberating way possible.
Fancy doing something similar yourself? As someone who has been making a living overseas for over half a decade, here are a few tips to get you started.
1. Make Yourself Mobile
If you are going to be living a nomadic existence then you need to travel light. Luckily, you can do just that and still stay connected to the internet with no more than a laptop, which in most cases is a necessity (unless a tablet will do).
You may even be able to survive with a smartphone if your only reason for connecting to the internet is to email your clients. Some smartphones allow you to convert them into a personal Wi-Fi hub, meaning as long as you can get a cellphone signal you can go wherever your heart takes you.
2. Work Out Your Living Costs
People move abroad to experience a new culture, have an adventure, surround themselves with new scenery""not to stay inside an office all day tapping away on a computer.
Although work is a necessity, it should not take up all of your time. So choose a destination which is affordable enough to allow you to live the life you want to without having to work every hour of the day, otherwise you might as well stay at home.
3. Be Prepared
If at all possible, don't wait until you arrive in your new destination before you start to try earning some money. The chances are it might take you longer than you thought it would, by which time your savings may well have dried up.
Instead, start working remotely a few months beforehand. Not only will you discover how much you are capable of earning from abroad and so budget your trip more effectively, but you can also iron out any teething problems before you leave home.
4. Contact Other Expats
By contacting other expats (you're already on one of the best websites to do that!) you can find out about all of that in-country info that you might not discover until you get there. Find bloggers and forums run by expats in your chosen destination and you'll find that many people will be more than happy to answer your questions.
You never know, you might even make some new friends at the same time.
5. Do a Job You Really Enjoy
There are lots of options for working abroad these days, so make sure you pick something that you know you will enjoy. It does not have to be your favorite thing in the world because the chances are it won't become your permanent career (although it might!), but at least target something that won't make you miserable.
6. Invest in Some Quality Kit
You don't need to spend a fortune on your gear, but you want to be comfortable. Some people make the mistake of buying a cheap-as-chips netbook because they are worried something will happen to it on the road, but they live to regret it when they are forced to tap away at the tiny keys for hours every day.
Get yourself something that will do the job for you, and if possible get yourself a new one that will last""buying another one abroad can be a lot more expensive.
7. Tell Your Clients
If you already have some clients who you are working for, make sure you tell them that you are going to be working from abroad. There is nothing to hide, and most of them will simply be curious (and maybe a bit jealous).
The reason you should tell them is because there may be issues with time differences, meetings, delivering packages, etc, that you will want to prepare them for before they discover that you are working from the other side of the Atlantic.
8. Establish a Good Base
You can work from a hostel or a hotel when you set up abroad""but it won't be as comfortable as finding your own place.
If you have budgeted correctly and done your research, you should be able to move to a destination where you can stay in your own or a shared apartment where you can enjoy an office, peace and quiet, and an internet connection, which will help you to be more productive.
9. Find a Good Accountant
If you are only going to be living abroad for a few weeks or months you may not have to worry about this. But if you are staying for an extended period of time on a work visa then a knowledgeable local accountant will be worth their weight in gold.
This made my life a lot easier when I became a resident in Argentina, and my accountant helped me to save far more money than I spent on his services.
10. Always Back Everything Up
Fail to back up your work, and you could find yourself in a real pickle if something goes wrong. It is so easy to back up all your work now that it really is inexcusable to fail to do so.
Dropbox is ideal for this, but other tools are available which do the same job. Get everything backed up and remember to do so regularly, then if disaster does strike at least you are limited to having to buy a new laptop in the worst case scenario.
Good Luck!
Anyone who wants to work abroad is no longer limited to picking fruit or working behind a bar. Online work allows you to enjoy a reliable and profitable job, with the benefit that you can do it from anywhere in the world.
Hopefully the above tips will help you to prepare yourself for working overseas so that you can now start to plan your own adventure abroad.About the Author: Connor Davies lives in South America where he enjoys a location-independent existence working as a freelance writer, marketer, and English teacher amongst other things. For more information on making a living from anywhere in the world, you'll find all you need to know""and a free ebook to get you started""at Aspirations Abroad.

Okay, so things at home are becoming a little bit boring. You're tired of waiting around to get what you want and between work, stress and life in general, you're starting to feel – well, underwhelmed. It sounds like you need to have a little bit of fun and spice things up a little bit. Yeah, you're looking to have an affair. Sounds good in theory, but where are you going to go to meet that person that you can have the no-strings-attached-satisfying-encounter that you really want?
It's likely that you're not going to approach just anyone. Seriously, the chances that someone might find out are really high if you try hooking up with someone you already know. Sure, it might be fun but the next thing you know, there's feelings involved and strangeness should you see each other – not an option.
Okay, so maybe you choose to go on an internet chat room. Sure, you can do that and if you're happy just talking about what you would like to do and can make sure that your significant other can't get access to your computer. Of course, the person that you think is great fun turns out to be psychotic and starts calling your spouse in an effort to make you break up. Yeah – not exactly an option.
Bars or clubs can be a good place to meet a one-time good time, but you're taking a chance with a stranger. Seriously, you could get some kind of cooties or something and what if your hook up wants more than just a good time? Suffice it to say, having an affair and not getting found out can be a real challenge.
Maybe that's why so many people are choosing to check out affair websites. Maybe they love the fact that on the right affair site, they are meeting other people that have lives just like they do. The people who go to these sites really want to keep living the lives they have. They don't want to ruin their marriages; they don't want to fall in love. They just want satisfying, no-strings-attached encounters that help to break the monotony in life and make things fun again. So, if this is what you're seeking, then you're in the right place.
If you're looking to have a good time without having to worry about ruining the life that you've got now, then the first step is to check out a great affair website. Ashley Madison is a place where you can go to meet just who you're looking for to have the great time you seek and it's all anonymous and safe. Before you choose to risk it all just for a good time, check out a great affair website.

So you generally wanted to know what it is like becoming a pharmaceutical or medical representative.

Artificial Intelligence incorporates some distinct tools created over the years. We'll talk briefly about some of the tools which have enabled us to accomplish the not possible.

Aesop's function is fairly simple merely to maneuver a tiny video camera inside the patient according to voice controls supplied by the surgeon. By doing so, Aesop has eliminated the need to have for a member of the surgical team to hold the endoscope in order for a surgeon to view his operative field in a closed chest procedure. This advance marked a main improvement in closed chest or port-access bypass strategies, as surgeons could now straight and precisely manage their operative field of view.

HOUSING MINISTER EOGHAN Murphy has said that his department has no evidence that homeless families are "gaming the system" in order to jump up the social housing waiting list.
Murphy was speaking after the outgoing chairperson of the Housing Agency Conor Skehan told the Irish Times yesterday that homeless families may be presenting as homeless to jump up the list.
Skehan was referring to a policy introduced by the previous government in January 2015 under which 50% of all social housing allocations in Dublin were to go to homeless people.
Commenting on this measure, Skehan suggested that the prioritisation could be skewing homelessness figures.
He came in for strong criticism from opposition politicians and charity officials over the comments, who said there was "no evidence whatsoever" to back up the claims.
Speaking to reporters today, Minister Murphy said that his department also had no evidence of families engaging in this practice, but he stopped short of criticising Skehan.
"Conor Skehan is the chairperson of the Housing Agency. He advises on government policy how he thinks it might be impacting," the minister said.
"I think it's fair enough that he can do that in his role, and it's not for me to criticise him for doing that – it's important that we have different voices in this debate.
I've no evidence in my department of people presenting or trying to game the system.
The minister said that homelessness was a "very complex issue" and reiterated his previous commitments to build more homes and work to help people out of the situation.
Speaking to TheJournal.ie yesterday, Mike Allen, director of advocacy with homelessness charity Focus Ireland, said there was no evidence to back up Skehan's claims.

"There is no evidence for this happening," he said.
"And it's not as though there is no evidence so it might be happening… If this was happening there would be evidence for it.
If you look at the graph of homelessness at that time, it doesn't start to go up any faster. It continues to go up at the same speed.
Conor Skehan was due finish in his five year role as chair of the Housing Agency at the beginning of this year. The position has been publicly advertised but has yet to be filled.
Skehan has agreed to remain in the role until a successor is appointed by the minister.

Hitchhiking from Göteborg to Stockholm Part 1Leave a comment
July 30, 2012 by farbolino
Mike and I woke up early to make sure we had an early start to a long day of hitchhiking to Stockholm from Gothenburg. We wanted to make it to the spot recommended by Hitchwiki before 9:00. So we hopped on the tram (without paying) which took us closer to the spot, otherwise it would have been an hours walk.
Unfortunately we had really bad luck and waited over 2 1/2 hours and not even one car stopped. The traffic was pretty light, but even still someone should have stopped sooner.
One of the interesting things about this spot was it overlooked a System Bolaget (state run seller of alcohol) which opened at 10:00. Cars starting lining up in the parking lot at 9:50 in the morning on a Monday to start buying hard alcohol. Others walked there and waited for the doors to open. By 10:30 there were alcoholics fighting in the parking lot since they were already drunk.
So we looked on a map to try and find a better spot, but it didn't look like there really was one. We went back to the center of the city where there was an on-ramp, but there really wasn't a good place for cars to pull over. Luckily there was a stop light that forced the traffic to look at us. Within 10 minutes a young guy pulled up, rolled down his window and said he was only going 50 miles east. We thought anything would be better then being in Gothenburg and took the ride. After transferring to the new spot and eating some food it was already 1 o'clock and it had taken us 4 hours to get out of the city.
Andreas (our driver) was a cool 24 year old who had been visiting his girlfriend in Gothenburg and was headed back home to a small town inland. We got to talking and we all just got along really well. He had never picked up hitchhikers before and was really curious about the whole thing. Soon enough his turn off the highway came and we pulled into a gas station. He asked if it was a good enough spot, and we confirmed it was perfect. Then he said he could take us a little further and turn off the highway a little ways down the road. So we hopped back in the car and off we went.
The conversation was so good that there were a few times that we were all almost crying we were laughing so hard. I'll save you the details, but the conversation was mostly about sex. Next thing I know, we've driven 100km past the gas station. Andreas said that he was having such a good time that he didn't want to drop us off, so we kept driving. We told him that he could drop us off anywhere, but he said he was on vacation and had nothing better to do He genuinely wanted to take us further. In the end, after some awesome conversation he had driven us almost 300 km! I can't even describe how generous he was either. He was always offering us things, including little bottles of Johnnie Walker Whiskey. When he finally dropped us off there was no possible way we could thank him enough.
He ended up dropping us off in Örebro which was one of the larger towns along the way. We walked to a different exit of the highway where there was a grocery store and a gas station. We bought some food and then walked to the gas station to ask for a ride. Most people were staying local, so we decided to walk to the on ramp for the highway and thumb it there. After about 45 minutes a small red Peugeot pulled over and we jumped in. Richard the driver was busy eating hamburgers that he just purchased from the fast food joint next to the highway, but inbetween bites managed to tell us he was a truck driver and was headed about 80km further down the road to Eskilstuna. We were happy to get out on the road again since it was getting late in the day. We knew it was likely that we wouldn't reach Stockholm that day.
We tried to hitchhike at the round about in Eskilstuna until about 9:30 pm. The only one to pull over was a group of guys asking if we had any drugs on us. I thought it was an interesting question, said no, and they drove off. We walked to the McDonalds and washed our faces before setting up the tent on the other side of the road in a wooded area and preparing to reach Stockholm the next day.

Five healthy habits could help prolong your life by 10 years or more! That, according to a new study just released in the American Heart Association journal Circulation.
A new study examining three decades of data has found that men and women following five lifestyle habits can add more than a decade of life expectancy. The habits aren't new: eating a healthy diet, exercising regularly, keeping a healthy body weight, not drinking too much alcohol, and not smoking. But according to this study, the first comprehensive analysis of its kind in the U.S., they also aren't very well followed.
"This study underscores the importance of following healthy lifestyle habits for improving longevity in the U.S. population," said senior study author Frank Hu, chair of the Department of Nutrition at Harvard Chan School. "However, adherence to healthy lifestyle habits is very low."
According to MarketWatch.com, "Men and women who followed the healthiest of lifestyles were 82% less likely to die from cardiovascular disease and 65% less likely to die from cancer compared with people who lived unhealthy lifestyles over the course of 30 years."
Time Magazine dug a little deeper into the criteria researchers used to come to the conclusion that these five habits could help us live longer.
People were considered to have a healthy diet if they fell into the top 40% of the study group, based on their Healthy Eating Index score; to drink moderately if they had a drink or fewer per day for women, or two drinks a day or fewer for men; to have a healthy body weight if their body mass index fell between 18.5 and 24.9; to exercise regularly if they were active for at least 30 minutes a day; and to not smoke if they had never picked up the habit.
The percentage of Americans who adhere to the five healthy habits is remarkably low. How low? How about 8 percent according to the new research! And, in a WebMD story, Dr. Suzanne Steinbaum, a spokesperson for the American Heart Association, said the healthy habits are not unreasonable.
"These five things can empower every one of us to make a huge difference," she said.
The habits are also realistic, Steinbaum noted. For example, moderate exercise — such as brisk walking for 30 minutes a day — was enough.
"That isn't a crazy amount of exercise," Steinbaum said. "It doesn't require you to join a gym."
USA Today quoted lead author Frank Hu as saying, "Quantifying the association between healthy lifestyle factors and longer life expectancy is important not only for individual behavioral changes but also for health communicators and policy makers. It is critical to put prevention first."
We'd love to hear your thoughts on this new study and whether you think we can help Arizonans start to follow and stick to these five healthy habits. If you do, share your ideas on how we might be able to do it. Generating dialogue around the health stories making headlines is another way we are working toward our long-term goal of one day making Arizona the Healthiest State in the Nation!

The Goat Feeding, 18" X 24", acrylic, NFS
A painting for my good friends Jane and Vern, outside Saint Louis at their farm. The goats get fed grain every 3-4 days, and when they do it's a big deal. I painted this image from a video I took of the goats all running from the big pastures to the barn. The last gal, pregnant I believe, straggling behind with her ears flopping as she goes.... and Vern just chuckling all the while.

Ragazza, 9" X 12", acrylic SOLD
This is a friend's 19 (?) year-old cat. I believe her name may be Bella Ragazza, meaning "beautiful girl" in Italian. I have to say though, I wish I'd gotten a video of her, as she has the cutest, short little legs ever! She reminded me a lot of my old bow-legged, fat black boy, Spaghetti, aka Spaz.

"Zoe" is my California friend's first young Warmblood; she stands over 17 hands and she is not only a beautiful mover, but she is very smart too. A handful!
Miguel has taken exceptional care of her, and my friend will give this painting as a gift to him. It wass actually not quite finished here but I sent it off without photographing (my corrections to hind hooves, feet and general tightening)!

Last Thursday I watched a video on interviewing for jobs and read some related info on the website of Dwightly's company. In the late afternoon, C. and I went to Forest Books so he could give Bob there a copy of his book of poems (My Heart in the Matter), and then we had burritos at El Toro.
On Friday I had the aforementioned phone interview, for 30 minutes, with the hiring manager for the business applications analyst position, along with two project managers. In the evening, C. and I had dinner at Café Ethiopia.
On Saturday, Tom and I drove again to Sacramento to see Mac, now back at the assisted living place and officially under hospice care. He looked about the same as last week, or maybe even better, but seemed a bit less present mentally. As with last week, Ann took the opportunity to do an errand, Tom fell soundly asleep, and I sat by Mac's bed. The rails of the bed prevented me from holding his hand, but we made eye contact
When I first got there, he said "Hi" and looked me in the eye and gave me a warm smile, and several other moments of eye contact and recognition occurred as I sat there. When Ann returned, she told Mac we were going to lunch, and he indistinctly but clearly enough indicated that he wanted to come with us. Ann told him he couldn't, and he said again, "I want to come." If I'd realized he could interact that much, I would have tried to engage him a bit more, though Ann said she was very surprised that he'd communicated so directly.
Ann and Tom and I had lunch in the dining room—Steve and Julie, already full of lunch, joined us—and then Tom and I saw Mac again briefly and drove home. In the evening, C. and I had dinner at La Santaneca, near Mission and 24th streets, which has a warm, convivial feel, and purveys El Salvadorean and Mexican comfort food at very low prices. You can eat way more than you really should for under ten dollars. C. goes there often. He pointed out that they don't serve alcohol, and how the servers were all dressed up in white shirts. For a very low price, you can get a "side dish" of fried plantains which would be plenty for four people to share. C. and I split one. He hardly had any. The plate was empty when we departed.
Sunday I spent cooking. C. came over in the evening and dined on some of the crackers and marmalade he keeps at my place.
On Monday I found out I had gotten the four-month position as a business applications analyst, and also was invited to interview for a fancier full-time job at the same company. Whereas I got a telephone call from the hiring manager of the temporary position to invite me to interview for it, the communication about the potential full-time job was extremely impersonal: I got an email saying I was eligible to interview, with a link to click on if I was interested. I had to select my time zone and then select an interview slot, and then I got a notice saying a recruiter would call me at home at that time.
The four-month job will pay the same as my former job and will interrupt my severance pay, which will start again after the job ends and continue until I get the full original amount. I was extremely psyched after both pieces of job-related news, though later I felt kind of queasy, after I remembered I don't want to work for my ex-employer or in that industry at all: Instead of putting effort into finding something more suitable, I did what was easiest, out of fear and laziness.
On the other hand, there's a lot to be said for steady income. I have friends who are struggling terribly, full of fear, unable to sleep. So I guess complaining about being offered a third of a year of paychecks would not at all be good form.
On Tuesday morning I got a call from Ann with the news that Mac had died the evening before, on Monday, August 6, about dinnertime. How wonderful that we saw him just two days prior, and that he knew we were there.
Now that I have this temporary job, I feel I'm excused from looking for work for the time being, and it was a strange day, knowing Mac was gone, or the opposite—perhaps he's everywhere now—so C. came over and was kind and comforting, and walked me over to Deborah's office. He was funny as we walked up a hilly block of Dolores St., swinging his arms exaggeratedly.
Lisa C. was visiting from Seattle, and in the evening, she and I had dinner at La Santaneca, which she liked, too.
I'd thought I would miss going to Howie's, but Lisa headed to BART just before 7:30, so I took a cab down there (Mark Coleman was filling in for Howie) and walked home with C. afterward.

And, this time, we got to interview rising Welsh singer-songwriter, Gabrielle Murphy.
What first inspired you to start performing as a singer?
I have been brought up in a household where music has always been in the forefront and I have never known anything different. My father has been in bands almost all my life and they were always rehearsing in our home. My parents have also taken me to gigs since I was very young.
Did you struggle to find your identity and 'voice' as a singer, or did it come easy to you?
The voice was never a real problem. It is what it is. I feel fortunate to have been blessed with the voice that I have. Finding my identity on the other hand was a total nightmare. As a young teenager I didn't even know who I was and for a few years I found it impossible to express myself. After a lot of soul searching, I've finally found my own identity but I then struggled as I didn't want people to single me out as being different to everyone else. I wanted to blend in. Its only been the last year or so that I've had the confidence to express myself and show people who I really am.
What are the challenges of being an up-and-coming singer?
There is so much competition and not enough opportunities. I made a commitment to myself when I was 14 that I would do whatever it took to be successful in this field. I chose to forego a social life and boyfriends in order to commit to my music. I do have my moments, but on the whole, this is what I have done. I have also been very fortunate with the opportunities I have been given. Many doors have been opened for me in a short space of time.
What do you believe are the central themes in the music you write?
That's an easy one. Relationships and raw emotions, not always my own. If you just stop and take notice of the people around you it doesn't take long to realise that so many people have so much going on in their lives.
Is there any artist performing today that you aspire to be like?
No, but there are many many amazing artists, both past and present who inspire me.
Is there such a thing as the perfect album?
No, I don't think that there actually is but I will not make it my aim in life to try and produce one. In my opinion, 'Tango in the Night' by Fleetwood Mac is probably the nearest to absolute perfection.
How do you get your hair so amazing?
Well I've never heard it referred to as that for a start so thank you. My mother, who is a family lawyer and mediator, has always fancied herself as a bit of a hairdresser. Me and my younger brother just let her loose on our hair. Great news for me as it doesn't cost me a penny.
Your genre of music seems a mix of both acoustic, indie and an underlying current of pop sensibilities. Will your next work push these influences further?
That sounds so technical. In all honesty I have absolutely no idea what genre my music falls into. It really is as simple as writing what I feel. I am always amazed when people hear different influences and describe different genres in my music. To me it just is what it is.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
That is such a difficult question to answer. My ambition in life is obviously to make a career from my music. I wouldn't be being honest if I said that I would be happy making music even if I was unable to earn a living from it. I would like to earn enough to provide my family and those close to me with financial security. I place a huge importance on being able to trust people and I am fortunate to have people I trust looking after me. I want to make sure that I can look after them.
How do you find life as a gigging teenage singer-songwriter in the South Wales Valleys?
It is very difficult to say the least. So many venues notorious for live music have closed down and therefore there are very limited opportunities. I have been so lucky to have been given so many opportunities to perform and so many wonderful gigs. The Young Promoters Network, Orchard Entertainment and of course, BBC Horizons have opened many doors for me and have been responsible for putting me and my music into the public eye. For that I will always be grateful.
You can find Gabrielle on Facebook and Twitter.

Oxford Ranked as Nation's Second-Best College Town
- Mitchell Diggs, Ole Miss News
OXFORD, Miss. – It's surely no surprise to most Ole Miss fans and people who live in the Oxford community, but the home of the University of Mississippi has been named one of the nation's top college towns.
Livability.com ranks Oxford No. 2 on its third annual listing of top college towns, praising the town's genteel atmosphere, cultural and social opportunities, and abundance of outdoor activities. Oxford was No. 9 on last year's list and this year ranks right behind College Station, Texas, home of new SEC member Texas A&M.
"While there is an equal number of permanent residents and college students, the town retains a sophisticated feel," the website's review says. "That comes from the care city leaders take in preserving historic buildings and the fact that business owners know their clients have an appreciation for the finer things in life."
The review also spotlights the university's contribution to the city's vibrant cultural scene, citing the UM Museum, Rowan Oak and Ole Miss Theatre offerings as being particularly important. It also notes that retirees have a chance to take UM classes tuition-free.
"College towns are appealing to all demographics because universities bring a host of quality-of-life amenities, such as arts and cultural activities, top-notch medical facilities and nightlife, as well as economic development assets, such as research and development, continuing education and workforce training," said John Hood, spokesman for Livability.com.
The listing is an honor for the entire Lafayette-Oxford-University community, Chancellor Dan Jones said.
"Oxford has benefitted from strong city leadership for some time," Jones said. "The University of Mississippi is proud to be a part of such a strong, vibrant community and grateful for the close relationship we enjoy. This honor for our hometown is just an affirmation of what we've known for some time."
Other cities making the list are Logan, Utah, home to Utah State University; Champaign, Ill., home of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign; Lawrence, Kan., home to the University of Kansas; Corvallis, Ore., home to Oregon State University; Bloomington, Ind., home to Indiana University; Athens, Ga., home to the University of Georgia; Ann Arbor, Mich., home to the University of Michigan; and Blacksburg, Va., home to Virginia Tech.
Livability.com focuses on small and medium-size communities through a variety of lists that highlight good living, visiting and working opportunities. Some recent rankings have included the nation's "Top 10 Best BBQ Cities," "Top 10 Cities for Historic Preservation" and "Top 10 Cities for Affordable Vacations." To develop the list of the top 10 college towns, editors considered a variety of factors, including cost of living, walkability, ratio of students to residents and the economic impact of the university on the city.
The listing is the third national honor in a month for Ole Miss, which moved up to No. 18 in Forbes' annual rankings of the nation's "Best Value Colleges" a few weeks ago. The university also is included in the "Fiske Guide to Colleges 2013," which profiles the top 300 colleges and universities in the United States, Canada and Great Britain.

Quinn Explodes For Six Goals, Redmen Romp Over No. Andover, 8-4
Dec 21, 2014 12:11AM
By Rick Spencer
Colin Quinn (2) cruises toward the North Andover net on the way to his record-setting six-goal night for Tewksbury.
averaging 38 shots per game and scoring only four goals in their first two
contests this season, it should probably come as no surprise that the talented
Tewksbury High hockey team exploded for eight goals in an 8-4 victory over an
unsuspecting North Andover team Saturday night at the Breakaway Ice Center.
But what no one expected was that six of those goals would come from just one player.
Senior forward Colin Quinn, all 5-foot-9, 145 pounds of him, rewrote the TMHS hockey record book in just one night, scoring a school record six goals in a once-in-a-lifetime performance that no Tewksbury player in recent memory -- or perhaps ever -- can claim to have matched.
"That has to be a record," said 15th-year TMHS head coach Derek Doherty. "Six goals? Not since I've coached and not since I played here. The kids think a couple guys might have had four, or maybe five once. But definitely not six. Man oh man, every time he scored I was like 'Oh my god, he just scored again!'"
"I've never seen anything like that," agreed Quinn's linemate, senior captain Ryan Petti, who almost as remarkably, assisted on all six of Quinn's goals.. "Quinn is a special player. I love playing with him. We feed off each other well and we make each other better. But six goals for him, I mean that's an unreal achievement."
Quinn and Petti got things started just over five minutes into the first period when they combined for a short-handed goal, with Quinn sliding it home. Quinn made it 2-0, Petti and Sean Brady assisting, just three minutes later. The same three players combined on Quinn's third goal with 49 seconds left in the first period, giving Quinn a natural hat trick.
Senior forward Ryan Meade added insult to injury by scoring Tewksbury's fourth goal with just eight seconds left in the period, and the route was on.
Quinn, who scored 10 goals as a junior last season, scored his fourth of the game and fifth of the season just one minute into the second period to make it 5-0 in favor of the Redmen. Petti made it 6-0 with his first goal of the season, Sean Budryk assisting, at the 6:15 mark of the second.
North Andover scored its first goal with 6:53 left in the second period to make it 7-1, but Quinn responded with his fifth goal of the game (No. 6 for the season).with 4:10 left in the second. Quinn recorded his record-setting sixth goal of the night just two minutes into the third period, Meade and Petti assisting, to wrap up Tewksbury's scoring. With both coaches emptying their benches, North Andover scrambled for three meaningless goals in the last eight minutes of the game, but thanks to Quinn, there was never any doubt as to who would win this game.
After suffering
through a frustrating, 3-1 loss to Chelmsford Wednesday in spite of enjoying a
33-12 shots on goal advantage, Doherty was visibly relieved after the game.
"Net front presence, guys crashing the net, playing with a little more energy," Doherty said. "We had two good days of practice and we went over a lot of stuff. We didn't execute things properly against Chelmsford. We didn't crash the net, we were playing outside the perimeter. But tonight we had a lot of net front presence. We got guys more in front, more involved, kind of breaking up the house and creating things.
""We finally came out and we finally played," Doherty added. "We came out tonight and we scored goals, and a lot of them. It was nice to see."
Doherty was particularly pleased to see the combination of Quinn and Petti get untracked after two games in which the highly-regarded first line duo (Petti plays center, with Quinn and sophomore Ryan Sheehan as his wingers) produced only one goal. Petti's eight-point night put him over the 100-point mark for his illustrious career, with 104 total points to date, joining just older brother Derek Petti and 2011 graduate Ryan Doherty as the only three players to tally over 100 career points in the last two decades of Tewksbury hockey.
"I've been waiting for them to wake up after the last couple of games," Doherty said of Quinn and Petti. "Those two are supposed to be the highlight reel for our offensive attack. And they finally came out and played tonight. I thought Ryan Petti had his best game so far. He took control, he used his strength and played physical. And when he does that, there's not too many guys in the league that are like him."
For Quinn, though, it was a night he vows never to forget.
"I have to give all the credit to my linemates," Quinn humbly said afterward. "They fed me every time. Ryan Petti and Ryan Sheehan too, they're always working the corners, and Ryan Meade was out there a lot too, he fed me a lot. So I had a lot of easy goals. It wouldn't have been possible without them.
"I didn't even know what was going on out there," Quinn added with a smile. "I'm just hoping I've got something left for the rest of the season because that will never happen again."
Quinn credits his historic performance on Doherty's insistence on getting greater net-front presence in this game.
"In Wednesday's game we didn't really have anybody in front of the net, and that was the main focus tonight, and it worked out really good for us," Quinn said. "Most of my goals were out-front rebounds. They were a lot of the dirty goals, but I don't mind that at all. A goal is a goal."
The victory improves Tewksbury's record to 2-1 overall, and 2-1 in Merrimack Valley Conference/Dual County League play. The Redmen get a break from league play for a week, but will travel to Maine next weekend for their annual holiday tournament in Portland.
Petti hopes this performance will help the team live up to its pre-season billing as the top Division 2 team in Massachusetts. "We have so much potential as a team," he said. "There was a lot of hype in the pre-season, then in the first two games we were a little slow to start. But the past two days in practice we worked real hard and tonight we exploded and we're going to try to feed off this. This was the start. Coach said this was the start of the season, right tonight, so hopefully from here on out we can build on this, cause this was a nice win. This is nice to have going into the holiday break."

As seen above, former WWE Superstar Eva Marie is featured on the latest episode of Complex Magazine's "Out of Bounds" show. The show also features former adult film star Mia Khalifa as a co-host. Khalifa received backlash from wrestlers and wrestling fans after she ripped WWE on a recent episode, calling it "embarrassing" and "not a real sport," noting that she has no respect for WWE. Khalifa has since accepted an invitation to attend an upcoming indie wrestling event in Austin, TX to see if she changes her mind.
Eva challenged Mia's claims that wrestling isn't a real sport and defended the sport.
"Some moves are [choreographed], so like you'll go over your finish, whoever's gonna win or lose because that's predetermined," Eva said. "However, when you're in there, usually you're just going toe-to-toe. So like, if I have you in a headlock, then I'm telling you right then and there what we're doing next.
"You have your producers in the back, adjusting to the crowd. 'Hey, uh, actually we're gonna go this way. Change the finish, change whatever you have going on.' So you can't really choreograph the dance because everything gets mixed up."
Eva also commented on the difference between acting & wrestling as she continued to pursue her Hollywood career.
"You have to put your body through a lot of physicality with wrestling," Eva stated. "You're saying you think it's fake, however when you get in the ring, you're really taking those bumps Then when it comes to acting, you're trying to get out of yourself and be a whole other person, which also helps with WWE, too, because you're playing a character at the end of the day."
Eva also compared sports and commented on pro wrestling not having an off-season.
"NFL, NBA, they all have off-seasons. Wrestling doesn't have an off-season. We're on the road 209 days out of the year, performing in different cities every single night. Where you have your NBA, and NFL and major league and they're taking charter flights going to the next city. We're driving in rent-a-cars to the next city."

Jennifer from Lancashire "Our kitchen was fitted a year ago, its only just had the finishing touches added. We went for a bespoke colour and a grey island in the Malton shaker style, with a quartz worktop."
Christina & Paul from Norfolk "Here are some pictures of our kitchen, including a couple of before shots. Before fitting the kitchen, we had some building work done, replacing the small window with a large patio door, to maximise the view of the garden.
We are thrilled with our new kitchen. We fitted it ourselves (when I say we, it was really my husband with me as his assistant.) As you will see from the photographs, we had to tweak a few of the units, especially around the sink area where there is an RSJ support jutting out. This was originally the external wall but an extension had been built before we bought the property.
With the help of one of your team we saw that the best way to fit the sink unit in was to use a corner unit, which we cut to size. Originally we were going to put a filler panel in between it and the bin unit, but realised that the bin unit plus the space was just the right size for a 500 door, so we ordered a door, removed the drawer and added some shelves to make use of the space (the photos should make this clearer).
The other problem we had was our ceiling is very low so we had to jack up the tall units to fit the legs on! We chose to have the breakfast area in cream with an oak worktop, to make it different to the rest of the kitchen, then my husband made a radiator cover which I painted to match, and used an offcut from the worktop to make a shelf. Another worktop offcut was used to make the shelf above the sink. The kick board lighting was my husbands idea!
We found the quality of the units to be excellent, and we have now got a bespoke kitchen at a fraction of the price we were quoted by other companies.
It was my sister who recommended you as she had a kitchen from you a few years ago. "
Anne & David from Birstall "We absolutely love our kitchen and have had so many favourable comments. A very big transformation to how it was before. Recommended DIY Kitchens to a number of friends/colleagues."
Jenny from South Yorkshire "We could not be happier with our kitchen. DIY Kitchens made the whole process, from choosing a kitchen and getting a quote through to ordering and taking delivery of our kitchen, totally hassle-free and enjoyable.
When the kitchen was delivered, it was well packaged and the delivery drivers were fantastic. They ensured that like items were grouped together and were happy to put it in the room of our choice.
All of the units came pre-built which saved hugely on fitting time and costs. Our joiner commented and how well built the units were and how easy it was to put them in place. We opted to have almost entirely drawer units and these are very high quality. It was definitely worth paying for the soft close option and the glass sides to the drawers - it gives the impression of this being a really high end kitchen.
We reused the 1960s wall units that were already in our old kitchen and just painted them in the same blue as the units around the edge of the kitchen.
We heard of DIY Kitchens because my brother used you for his kitchen and we were impressed with the build quality of that. Since having our kitchen installed, we have already recommended you to 2 other people who have both placed orders. We will continue to recommend you as I don't think we could find better anywhere else. "
Gregg from Ashton-under-lyne "Great Quality kitchen. Much better finish than any I had seen in other showrooms. Kitchen fitters commented on quality of units. Kitchen looks great now it's finished and I love my bespoke kitchen island and large cupboards.
Katy & Paul from Bradford "Just thought Id pop across these pics of my (finally) finished kitchen! More than happy for them to be used on your website."
Mary from Rayleigh "Excellent quality & excellent before and after care. Would highly recommend "
David from Hull "Photos of my kitchen."
Francesca from Newbridge "We heard about DIY kitchens via a google search a couple of years ago and then began planning our alterations to knock two rooms into one, to form our new kitchen layout. I can honestly say after reading several reviews on DIY kitchens, all of which were so complimentary and also doing a lot of price comparisons, DIY Kitchens won hands down.
We can't praise them enough for the diligent customer service we received, even before we had ordered anything, right through to their fantastic after sales care. We can whole heartedly recommend anyone to purchase in complete confidence. Whether it's a completely new kitchen or replacement doors , we actually did a combination of both and the quality of the doors and cabinets is out of this world. The fact that the cabinets come rigid built with the doors hung on them was such a perk and saved lots of time spent on labour.
We are so happy with the end result, especially as it feels like a far superior kitchen to the price we actually paid for it and compared to what this same kitchen would have cost with some of the mainstream retailers, it really was a brilliant deal.
Thank you to the DIY Kitchens team for all your help, support and advice throughout the process we were so grateful !"
Claire from Lincolnshire "We bought a DIY kitchen last summer and it is fantastic. The quality is extremely good and of a high finish - it has the 'magazine' kitchen look we wanted. Previously we did not spend much time in the kitchen, but now it is a joy to be in."
Miriam from Leeds " We are absolutely delighted with our kitchen. Our joiner commented on its high quality, and we have recommended DIY kitchens to countless friends. Your after sales team were great too - we had a few issues with hinges but everything was sorted out brilliantly. THANK YOU."
Craig & Keely from Loughborough "(Malton Alabaster & Cornflower Blue) We have now finished our Malton painted kitchen that we purchased from you back in July, we have attached a few pictures of the kitchen and utility room.
We found the the units to be very sturdy and our worktop fitter was impressed with the quality of the units, the doors and the solid oak worktops. Overall we have found the kitchen to be very good and are impressed with the results. The units were easier than expected to fit and the technical guide supplied is a great help.
We had found diy kitchens online and thought all the reviews were too good to be true, so we decided to pay a visit to the showroom, and have to say it is the best kitchen showroom I have seen and would recommend anyone thinking of buying to pop along. We had a couple of issues with missing doors but this was solved extremely quickly with doors being supplied soon after."

The Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy is launching a new degree in the 2019-20 academic year geared toward students with some professional work experience who are passionate about public affairs and looking to deepen their skills to enhance their careers.
more information
The nine-month, 33-credit Master of Public Affairs program will build upon students' previous work experience of at least five years in government, the non-profit sector, military service, or government or regulatory affairs in the private sector, either in the United States or abroad.
Students in the program will develop rigorous analytic skills for objective policy analysis, sharpen their communication and management skills, broaden their expertise in a broad range of public affairs issues globally, and actively engage in leadership development.
Because of the professional focus, applicants are not required to provide GRE test scores.
The degree culminates in a unique learning experience for the small cohort: a capstone project for a real-life client. It's an opportunity for students to gain additional experience and have a professional product to add to their portfolio.
"The projects are going to be a great benefit to the organizations that are lucky enough to take on a University of Michigan Ford School student," said Paula Lantz, associate dean for academic affairs at the Ford School.
Further, students can take advantage of the wide array of coursework options across the university. This option, coupled with the highly marketable skillset the program offers, makes it a good fit for students earning other graduate degrees at U-M, who are looking to further develop policy-oriented communication and leadership skills.
The program is designed to launch graduates' careers to new heights in leadership roles and senior-level positions in any sector.
In the vein of the Ford School's other degrees, the MPA program will emphasize research and empirical evidence in policy design and evaluation processes.
"The Ford School is renowned for our emphasis on data and evidence along with values and political processes in its approach to public policy, and the MPA students will gain strong analytic skills so that they can be even more effective in the next phase of their careers," said Lantz.
The Ford School is now accepting applications through Jan. 15 for the first MPA cohort.

Never pressure an Aquarius woman to be punctual. If you have a date with her, be prepared to wait for a long time, possibly reminding her that she has a date. You should also be prepared for a rain check that you find out about exactly when you arrive at the meeting place, barely holding the flowers and worrying about being late. Still, if she is there, don't give her the flowers because she won't know what to do with them. Her sensitiveness is especially mental, intuitive and civic.
If the Aquarius woman makes you the secretary of the first parapsychology congress, accept without holding back, because it will be an international congress and somebody has to help her. Prove her that you live on the edge and that you have progressive ideas. The Aquarius woman doesn't like men without initiative, who stick to their parents' traditionalism and to the old-fashioned formalities of the time.
When you are with an Aquarius woman, dream of a different human kind, talk to her about the solar systems from the other galaxies and go a round to different brand stores. She will be astounded and will immediately fall in love with you at the sight of the first vacuum cleaner that takes the carpet out by itself or of the food that gets cooked at our verbal command.
As by accident, stop by a friend who is celebrating his birthday. The Aquarius woman will be happy to have someone to talk to about planetary changes and telepathy. She likes friendship and friends, and she's got many, but she never makes time for them. Loving an Aquarius woman takes a lot of courage because you will love, in fact, half of the planet!
You can tell the Aquarius woman, when she is erotically satisfied, that you are interested in a new aesthetic wave in contemporary painting or in founding a charity centre. A less lofty Aquarius woman will offer as a secretary. A more cultured Aquarius woman will think of a larger project but, at the same time, she will expose all her feminine charms and will start with a loving frenzy you should keep up with until the end.
The Aquarius woman has an unlimited imagination and her erotic refinement accepts no resistance. It is "all or nothing" with her!

text: Continuing with getting the hang of Photivo as a RAW editor (though yesterday's post was all RawTherapee). The learning curve is not exactly steep, but it is different from other editors I've used. The upswing there being that it's terrible to get complacent about using any one tool. I would make a comment about eggs and baskets but you're sharp, you get where this is going.
