People Living With Disability in Nigeria (PLWD) across the South/West region have pledged to deliver 10 million votes for the re-election bid of President Muhammadu Buhari on Saturday.
The group made the promise during the South-West Summit of Buhari/Osinbajo Support Group held at Mapo Halł in Ibadan on Monday.
News men report that the summit presided over by Chief Olusola Oke (SAN), Director-General, Presidential Campaign Council, in South/West was attended by 54 groups.
Prince Paul Adelabu, the Chairman, Board of Trustee (BoT), Joint Nation Association of Persons With Disability (JONAPWD), said they would deliver 10 million votes for the president's re-election.
"We have 27 million members across the nation and we are going to deliver nothing less than 10 million votes to re-elect Buhari/Osinbajo on Saturday.
"We are delivering the votes to Buhari/Osinbajo to appreciate him for assenting to the disability bill on January 23. From now, we will always celebrate Buhari every January 23," he said.

Adelabu called on members of the association to vote massively for Buhari/Osinbajo on Saturday, saying the association has more than 10million members with PVCs.
Prof. Isaac Adewole, Minister of Health, said Buhari had done well for the region to deserve massive votes.
"The president has done very well for the South- West.
''Buhari loves us and we must also reciprocate that with massive votes. All he has done for us is more than what our leaders asked for," he said.
Adewole urged the people to ensure that the president defeat his opponents with a wider margin, adding that it should be 90 per cent of the votes for Buhari.
Earlier, Oke urged the people to vote massively for Buhari for the region to retain the Vice-President seat, saying the region would greatly benefit more at the "next level''.
He said that the president had a laid very strong foundation for the country to be consolidated upon if few years to come.
"Buhari has revived railway, roads, electricity and agriculture. He has provided employment for youths and implemented several social intervention programmes.
"South/West is a habitat for several Federal Government investments. We are ready to give Buhari massive votes in the South-West," he said.
NAN reports that the event also featured endorsements for Buhari/Osinbajo from the various groups drawn from across the geo-political zone. (NAN)

"The time to begin writing an article is when you have finished it to your satisfaction. By that time you begin to clearly and logically perceive what it is you really want to say." ~Mark Twain
Dorchester Books, which last year let go the majority of its editors and announced the end of mass market paperback publications, in favor of e-books and POD only, now apparently has no in-house editors, as editor Chris Keeslar announced last week he is no longer with the company. Also departing is Heather Josepowitz, who was editing confession magazines (True Romance, True Story, etc.) owned by Dorchester. You can read more at Brian Keene's blog.
Pelican Book Group publishes both print and e-editions of Christian Romance and Women's Fiction, under the White Rose and Harbourlight imprints. The editors are currently looking for submissions of 15,000 to 25,000 word novellas with a Christmas theme for a special release for the holiday season of 2012. The stories may be either romance or general women's fiction, contemporary or historical, with Christian themes. Send your submission by May 1, 2012, using Pelican's online submission form. And be sure to check out Pelican's full submission guidelines.
A couple of nice reviews for my books this week. From Harriet Klausner:
"The Woman Who Loved Jesse James is a fascinating biographical fiction that looks at the famous outlaw through the eyes of mostly his adulating beloved wife in a world still suffering from the ravages of the war and the consequential agony of defeat. Because of Zee's loving filter, Jesse comes across as heroic rather than a cold blooded killer. She needs to believe in the goodness rather than the wickedness of her mate who she knows is tender with his family. Well written, readers will enjoy Cindi Myers fine nineteenth century look at Jesse James through his spouse's loving perspective."
And from Long and Short Romance Reviews:
"West With the Wind propels the reader along, at times gently and at other times in emotional or physical storms that are breath-holding happenings. The descriptions of the environment leave no doubt about how difficult the trek across half a continent is, but most of all the characters-good and bad-seem so real with their flaws and foibles that make the reader feel as if they are personal acquaintances. Once again Cindi Myers entertains with her smooth, compelling writing style as she takes the reader on a vicarious trip that keeps one turning pages. "
Entangled Publishing's editors just posted their Wish Lists for February. They're still very open to submissions. Some highlights: Stacy Abrams would like to see "Adult who-done-it mystery with main character as an accidental sleuth" and "Adult romance with medical elements a la Grey's Anatomy or Private Practice, but no cheesy doctors falling in love with their comatose patients!" Heather Howland would love "Gritty and sexy military/Special Ops romance similar to Lora Leigh's Navy SEALs series." Lori Wilde says "I'd love to see more holiday themed books." and "I'm in the mood for a good friends-to-lovers story. But remember, we want those strong alpha heroes." Alethea Spiridon-Hopson would love "A really tight series involving sexy, charismatic men." Nina Bruhns longs for "A super-sexy thriller", "A classic detective story with romance added" and "an historical suspense or mystery," while Susan Meier wants "A small town with a really great cop." Read all their wants (and dislikes) on the blog.
As always, feel free to pass along the information from this blog. All I ask is that you give me credit and include a link to the blog. Thanks! Cindi Myers

Residential property prices rose in 17 of the 22 European housing markets for which figures were available during the year to Q2 2016, Global Property Guide's latest detailed analysis of individual regions and countries shows.
In total, six of the ten strongest housing markets in the Global Property Guide's global survey are in Europe, with Romania now the strongest housing market in the region.
Property in Romania
Romania is now the strongest housing market in Europe and the third best performer in Global Property Guide's global survey, amidst strong economic growth and the government's focus on rebuilding public trust. The average selling price of apartments rose by 10.1% during the year to Q2 2016, from year-on-year rises of 11.55% in Q1 2016, 7.74% in Q4 2015, 7.57% in Q3 2015, and 4.83% in Q2 2015. House prices increased 0.77% quarter-on-quarter in Q2 2016.
This comes as a surprise given Romania's disappointing performance from 2008 to 2014, amidst struggling economy. House prices plunged by 24.22% in 2009, 22.08% in 2010, 6.99% in 2011, 5.96% in 2012, 10.43% in 2013, and 1.59% in 2014. It was only in the second half of 2015 that the housing market fully began to recover. The Romanian economy expanded by a robust 3.7% in 2015, one of the EU's highest growth rates, and a marked contrast to the almost zero growth between 2009 and 2014. Romania's economy is expected to grow by 4.2% this year, due to tax cuts and salary increases.
Property in Germany
Germany's housing market remains strong, mainly due to supply shortages and strong economic fundamentals. The price index for apartments rose by 9.89% during the year to Q2 2016. Apartment prices rose by 3.71% q-o-q in Q2 2016.
Long a picture of housing market stability, Germany was one of the few countries that avoided a house-price slump in the wake of the 2008-2009 global financial crisis. Since then, extremely low interest rates have encouraged demand. In Q2 2016, the economy expanded by 3.1% from a year earlier, up from an annual growth rate of 1.5% in Q1 2016, according to the Federal Statistics Office. The economy is expected to expand by 1.7% this year and by 1.4% next year, after growing by 1.5% in 2015, 1.6% in 2014, 0.4% in 2013 and 0.6% in 2012, according to Bundesbank.
Property in Turkey
Turkey's housing market remains robust, with house prices in Istanbul rising by 9.67% during the year to Q2 2016. House prices increased 0.36% q-o-q in Q2 2016.
Turkey's housing market was boosted by strong foreign investment and growing population, despite a collapsing currency, dissatisfaction with the government, and geopolitical tensions.
From 2007 to 2011, house prices in Turkey fell by 29% inflation-adjusted as economic growth slowed sharply to 0.7% in 2008, a sudden end to the impressive of 6.8% annual GDP growth during 2002-2007. Existing house prices plunged 14.65% in 2008, by 2.82% in 2009, by 3.54% in 2010 and by 2.39% in 2011. The Turkish housing market finally recovered in 2012, with house prices rising by an average of 8% annually from 2012 to 2015. The economy grew by a striking 4.8% in Q1 2016 from a year earlier, after expanding by 3.8% in 2015, 2.9% in 2014, 4.2% in 2013, 2.1% in 2012, 8.8% in 2011, and 9.2% in 2010. The economy is projected to grow by 3.8% this year, and by another 3.4% in 2017, according to the IMF.
Meanwhile the decline of the Turkish lira against all major currencies, especially the euro, made residential properties more affordable to foreign homebuyers. In just two year, the lira lost about 13.2% of its value against the euro to TRY3.31691 = EUR1 in August 2016. Over the same period, the lira depreciated by almost 27% against the US dollar to TRY2.95954 = USD1.
Property in Malta
Malta's property market is performing very well, buoyed by government measures aimed at supporting property demand, such as the Individual Investor Programme and stamp duty exemption for first time homebuyers. Maltese property prices rose by 7.63% during the year to Q2 2016, up from a y-o-y increase of 3.59% a year earlier. Despite this, property prices declined 5.6% q-o-q in Q2 2016.
The Maltese property market enjoyed strong growth from 2000 to 2007, with house prices rising by 53.4%. However, property prices fell with the global financial crisis by 9.1% in 2008, 1.1% in 2009 and another 5% in 2010. After a short-lived recovery in 2011, house prices fell again by 5.2% in 2012. The housing market bounced back in 2013, due to government's launch of new property-related measures. House prices rose by 5.34% in 2013, 4.32% in 2014, and 8.66% in 2015. The economy is expected to expand by 3.6% this year, and by another 3% in 2017, after growing by 6.3% in 2015, 3.7% in 2014, 4.1% in 2013, and 2.8% in 2012, according to the IMF.
Property in Ireland
Ireland remains strong with house prices rising by 6.34% during the year to Q2 2016, at par with an annual rise of 6.19% a year earlier. This surge can be attributed to strong demand, coupled with limited housing supply, especially in the capital city of Reykjavik. House prices in Iceland increased 1.17% q-o-q in Q2 2016. Iceland's economy is expected to grow by a robust 4.2% this year, after expanding by 4% in 2015, 2% in 2014, 4.4% in 2013, 1.2% in 2012, and 2% in 2011, according to the IMF.
Ireland's house prices continue to rise, albeit at a slower pace, with residential property prices up by 6.27% during the year to end-Q2 2016. During the latest quarter (Q2 2016) Irish house prices dropped slightly by 0.9%.
The Irish economy is now the fastest-growing economy in the EU according to the official GDP growth figure of 26.3% in 2015 (revised up from the previously estimated 7.8% growth) However note that the spectacular revised figure largely reflects tax-based financial alchemy, rather than real growth - if it were real and continued the Irish economy would be larger than China's by 2037! The Irish economy is expected to grow by a healthy 5% this year and by another 3.6% in 2017. Ireland is considered by some to be Europe's austerity star performer, having introduced structural reforms early in the crisis and it is, according to this narrative, now reaping the benefits.
Other European property markets
Other strong European housing markets include Riga, Latvia, with house prices rising by 5.61% y-o-y in Q2 2016, followed by Slovak Republic (5.46%), the Netherlands (5.41%), Vilnius, Lithuania (5.28%), and the UK (4.82%). All saw positive quarterly growth during the latest quarter. Also, all performed better in Q2 2016 compared to a year earlier.
European housing markets with minimal house price rises included Portugal with house prices rising by 2.87% during the year to Q2 2016, Tallinn, Estonia (2.75%), Spain (2.22%), Norway (2.04%), Finland (0.92%), and Macedonia (0.72%). All, except Estonia and Macedonia, recorded positive quarterly growth during the latest quarter. All, except Estonia and Norway, showed better performance in Q2 2016 compared to a year earlier.
Property in Russia
Russia remains depressed, along with some others.
Russia remains the weakest housing market in the global survey, with residential property prices plunging by 12.46% y-o-y in Q2 2016, slightly worse than last year's residential price decline of 11.13%. Russia's house prices fell by 2.27% during the latest quarter.
After a period of soaring consumer prices, inflation has somewhat stabilized, thanks to prudent monetary policies. In July 2016, headline inflation fell to 7.2%, from 7.5% in the previous month and its lowest level since March 2014, according to the Federal State Statistics Service. However, it remains high by international standards. The high inflation rate is the reason for the substantial difference between the nominal y-o-y decline in Russian house prices (-6.03%) and the real decline (-12.46%). The overall inflation rate had surged to 15.5% in 2015, the highest rate since 2002. Inflation is expected to be 8.4% this year, according to the IMF.
In August 2016, crude oil prices stood at US$46.97 per barrel, up by 26.5% from US$37.13 per barrel in December 2015 but still 55.7% down from US$106.1 per barrel in June 2014.
In 2015, Russia's economy experienced its steepest contraction since 2009, with GDP falling by 3.7%, according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The economy is expected to contract again by 1.8% this year, amidst international sanctions and low oil prices, according to the Ministry of Economic Development. Russia's currency has collapsed, and interest rates are high.
From the perspective of foreign homebuyers the price decline has been much greater, since the ruble has declined against major currencies. The ruble lost more than 44% of its value against the US dollar in just two years, from an exchange rate of RUB36.20= US$1 in August 2014, to RUB64.87 in August 2016. Over the same period, the ruble depreciated against the euro by almost 34%, from RUB48.18 = EUR1 in August 2014 to RUB72.70 = EUR1 in August 2016.
Property in Montenegro
In Montenegro, prices of dwellings in new residential buildings dropped 10.15% y-o-y in Q2 2016, in sharp contrast with an annual rise of 2.38% in the previous year. On a quarterly basis, house prices dropped 0.78% during the latest quarter. The economy grew by 4.1% last year, its strongest growth since 2008. Economic growth this year is projected to be a healthy 4.7%, according to the IMF.
More European markets
Other European countries with minimal house price falls included Kiev, Ukraine, with house prices falling by 2.95% during the year to Q2 2016, Greece (-1.95%), and Switzerland (-1.15%). All recorded negative quarterly price changes during the latest quarter (Ukraine, -1.58%; Greece, -2.1%; and Switzerland, -1.36%). Despite this, only Switzerland showed worse performance in Q2 2016 compared to a year earlier.

Although the inflationary predictions for the primordial power spectrum of density inhomogeneities seem very successful, there is an obscure part in our understanding of the emergence of the seeds of cosmic structure: How does a universe which at one pint in time is described by a state that is fully homogeneous and isotropic, evolve into a state that is not, given that the dynamics does not contain any source for the undoing of such symmetry? We will discuss an approach that offers a resolution of the issue in the context of proposals to deal with the measurement problem in quantum mechanics. We will see that the approach naturally resolves the difficulties raised by the lack of observation of tensor modes.

With a retro-futuristic vision and an uplifting voice, there's no doubt the Wondaland CEO was designed for pure greatness. It's been nearly two years since Janelle Monáe starred in the Oscar-nominated films Moonlight and Hidden Figures, and five years since she graced us with her sophomore work of art, The Electric Lady. However, the multi-talented star tells Fuse that Dirty Computer has been in the making for quite some time.
Fuse sat down with Monáe before the premiere screening of her Dirty Computer "emotion picture" at the Walter Reade Theater in New York's Lincoln Center. Above, Monáe dives into the "magical" meaning behind the gorgeous visuals for the track "Pynk" and the creative process behind her highly-anticipated third studio album.
The Kansas-born artist explains that Dirty Computer was in the works prior to the release of her 2010 debut album, The ArchAndroid. "It was a project that existed in the future, and I guess I needed to get to the present and get in a space where I was really ready to work on it," says Monáe. Strategically setting her previous albums in the future, the singer-songwriter felt it was vital to get back to the present with Dirty Computer and expresses that it feels like she's been working on it for "a lifetime."
Watch the full interview above as Monáe also discusses how she got involved with Spotify's Black History Is Happening Now campaign, being an anti-bullying advocate and her special relationship with friend and mentor Prince.
Next, throw it back to Bonnaroo 2014 where The Electric Lady talked balancing her energy and being an innovative artist:

Training meeting Monday June 24, 2019
- Bob called the meeting to order at 19:04
- Bob opened the meeting with asking the firemen about their thoughts and concerns about the rural house fire today:
- Firemen ask if foam was the first choice, the Chief's answer was that when it was obvious that water was at a premium and because of the construction being a log building and prior experience foam was the best choice to extinguish the growing fire. Retention foam is so much better for getting into areas that water cannot and the ability of foam to saturate and cling to a surface makes it a great choice for this kind of fire. Of course in a city fire were we have unlimited water. We will always use water first and then evaluate. Each fire is unique and we will evaluate each one and use whatever resources we have to put the fire out.
- Some discussion on origin of fire.
- Bob commented that the firemen initial set up was very good.
- Brian and Bob said that we, firemen, are getting better at sizing up, preparing, and fighting an incident. Practice is paying off; now we will practice harder.
- Andrew reported that we are on track to match or exceed last years donations for sponsors for the Fireworks Fund.
- Brian reported that the float is ready and the banners will be here Wednesday.
- John U and Mike reported that they will use the new Cobra firing system this year and the racks are being assembled at John's house.
- Bob told firemen to check all small engines, to make sure all equipment used today was back in its proper place and then go home. He said you all are tired from the fire today.
- Firemen will move trailer and set up Fish Pond on July 1st at 1800.
- Meeting adjourned at 20:20

The article draws heavily from my experiences in Thailand in the midst of flooding. The floods are a good analogy for the recent swings in the world's financial markets, with both flood victims and investors looking for shelter. The article offers some concrete suggestions to investors on how they can stay afloat during financial turbulence.

Melissa sent this to me yesterday.
Mathew was a Maine Coon and I am always interested in seeing things about this.
From msnbc.com:
World's largest domestic cat stretches over 4 feet
5-year-old Maine Coon sets new Guinness world record
RENO, Nev.— A cat in Reno has broken the Guinness world record for world's longest domestic cat.
The Reno Gazette-Journal reported that a 5-year-old Maine Coon named Stewie was certified as the new record holder after measuring 48.5 inches from the tip of his nose to the tip of his tail bone. That's a little more than 4 feet long.
The record was previously held by another Maine Coon that measured 48 inches.
Stewie's owners, Robin Hendrickson and Erik Brandsness, said they decided to try for the record after hearing countless people say they were amazed by Stewie's length.
Hendrickson said Maine Coons are known as "the gentle giants" of the cat world.
Mathew may not have been that long, but he did break some records, some World Heavyweight Championship records; the CMWF World Heavyweight Championship to be exact. (as seen here in This Just In!)
Mathew was a 9 time WHC back in the day. A record only matched by Peanut Chew, who has gone un-challenged since December 1, 2007. The whereabouts of the championship belt has yet to be disclosed.

This is Shrimp interrupting your day with a Special report from Kat 9 News.
- Purrnell University Purrfessor Goes AWOL
Sources tell us that the well known Purrfessor of Psychology at Purrnell University has had enough of sitting in stuffy classrooms chasing pens and balls of crumpled up paper, and instead of waiting fur retirement, has taken matters into his own paws and moved to Florida.
However, he entrusted his classes fur the rest of the semester to some of his most purromising students.
Let's see what they have to say;
Thomas: Keeper of the Purrfessor's valued library book collection –
Well done, Thomas. It's important to keep those books warmed.
Next, we move on to;
Bradley: The Purrfessor's favorite philosophy advisor –
Thank you, Bradley – I can see why you are his favorite advisor.
And moving on to:
Hector: the Purrfessor's Legal Advisor-
Uh huh – Well, thank you Hector. But I hope you don't do final estate planning. No offense.
Next, let's hear from some of his top students –
Panther: First year psychology major –
Very true, Panther. In fact, some people may think so anyway. Just sayin.
Next, meet –
Fluffy: First year communications major
Looks like you need a break from classes fur awhile, Fluffy.
And next, meet –
Sandy: Keeper of the Purrfessor's beloved goldfish-
Smokey: The Purrfessor's Diversity Advisor –
Hmm. He has a point there…
And finally, meet-
Cuddles: the Purrfessor's youngest student –
Excellent question, Cuddles!
Well, certainly a lot to think about there -(especially that goldfish)…

File Linked To Access DatabaseJul 10, 2009
I have created a 'price list' database in ACCESS. Then in EXCEL I created a pivot table which retrieves data from one of the database queries (the query was saved as a .dqy file).
I emailed the file containing the pivot table to a colleague who is on the same server. He saved the excel file on he desktop & renamed it. When I update the databse file on a shared public drive on the server, he is able to 'refresh' his desktop file successfully !!

Whether you are in a relationship, or planning to have one, there are five important questions that you should ask yourself before proceeding. These questions are designed to ensure that you are in a solid space and that the person, you are thinking about connecting with, is the right one for your spiritual path. Many of these concepts also can be applied to friendships within a community.
We are all waking up, becoming more sensitive, and growing in ways that we would have never dreamed of a couple of years ago. As this is happening our relationships are evolving as much as we are. Not only are we becoming more sensitive to the foods that we eat but we are starting to notice a difference in the types of people that we choose to interact with.
The changes we are experiencing, with the various shifts happening on this earth, are on an emotional level as well as a physical level. With that being said you may have noticed that you are more aware of the intent behind someones words, have become extremely hard to lie to, and are more aware of your own emotional needs.
All of this new data, coming in through self exploration, is going to naturally bleed over into our relationships. It is going to affect the people we are around and those that we choose to partner up with.
Our vibrations, the frequency at which we vibrate, is directly influenced by those we associate with. Though we can project our energy in such a way that we can maintain our vibration no matter who we are around, there will be lower days where that doesn't come as easily. It is those days when we will be grateful that we were selective in our choice of partner or team members to synergize with.
So with that being said, remember that life is a beautiful journey and it is ok to take your time and slow down when choosing who you want to travel with on your journey through life.
1. Am I completely transparent with myself?
Self-deception is a huge problem that reflects out, in the mirror of life, in some crazy ways. When we are not honest with ourselves, not only does the universe not know what to send us, but we attract other people who are ignorantly living in their own self deception.
As you may have guessed you will probably attract a partner who is a vibrational match to yourself. So if you want honesty in a relationship then you have to start with being honest inside your own head. Practice telling yourself the truth, about everything. If you don't prefer something, don't pretend that you do.
2. Am I completely Transparent with the people around me?
After you have practiced being honest with yourself then practice being honest with everyone around you. Be true to your feelings when you express yourself. You can still be tactful and respect of the people around you while being true to how you feel.
Trust me on this one when I say that even white lies matter when it comes to relationships. If we get in the habit of exaggerating or pretending that we are fine with something, even when we are not, then the people around us will have no idea what we actually prefer. That is like getting mad at your dog for not fetching a ball that you didn't even throw, let alone ask for. It doesn't make much sense and doesn't give our partners much data to work with.
If we are treating people with the respect of transparency it opens up a whole world for them to communicate on a vulnerable and intimate level. This is a good practice with all people even if we aren't planning on getting romantically involved with them.
3. Why do I want to have a relationship?
What is the core of your desire to have a relationship. Focus on digging deep and really find the heart centered core at which you are operating from. Sometimes this can feel a bit scary because it can reveal things about ourselves that we weren't prepared for. Sometimes we uncover selfish reasons for seeking others.
If you find that your answer is from a space of lack see if there is an empowering way that you can shift it around. For example if your reason deep down is "…Because I don't want to be alone" recognize that this is an ego perception that is seeing life from a disconnected point of view.
Know that you are not bad for feeling this way. This is something that we are all working on. We are all learning to remember what it feels like to be connected to everyone again. However, if we are building a relationship upon this core then we will have a hard time building anything healthy that will last.
Instead try and reshape your core statement into a powerful sentence that encompasses what it is that you do want. "…I feel that through synergy and seeing life through another persons eyes I can grow and learn more about the depth of love." Doesn't that feel much better?
To get your new statement to stick try and making it a mantra you say every day, or a meditation where you focus on it for 90 seconds straight. Give your brain enough time to rewire with the new message and see how much of a difference it has on your energy and how you interact with others.
4. What are my Expectations for myself as a Partner/Lover?
What are my personal goals and how do I plan to use my path of growth to further love and support the person I want to be with? When you, and your lover, run into hard times see if you can change how you perceive them. Perhaps there is a creative and exciting way that you can grow closer together by tackling this unique obstacle.
Remember that your partner is not responsible for how you feel, and while they are expected to be respectful and nurturing there are some lessons in life that will mirror through them for your growth. Try and observe and ask questions before judging. What you dislike in others is more telling of yourself then you may think.
Make sure you ask lots of questions. "When you said this, I felt this, what did you mean by that?" Hold yourself to a high standard of patience, understanding, and create healthy boundaries through example. It is ok to tell your partner no. This will be easy if you are practicing complete transparency like we spoke about before.
Setting relationship goals for your growth is completely fine. "I choose to always respond with love." "I choose to ask questions first instead of reacting." "I choose to express my needs and ask for help when I need it." Tell your partner about your goals and ask for their help in accomplishing them.
5. Does being around this person make me feel more real?
This is the one major question that we have for looking at the other person you are thinking about pursuing a relationship with. Does being around this person make you want to hide your true self or do they create a space that makes you come alive?
Do they empower your ability to be authentic with yourself, to love yourself, and to follow your dreams and passions? If so then you have found a truly powerful person. Just make sure that you are working to create that type of environment for them and you two should have many wonderful adventures together.
What other questions do you feel someone should ask themselves before starting a relationship? Let us know in the comments below and thank you for reading.

A study evening at Kirkley Hall (by permission of Northumberland College) led by Sandra Morrison BHSI and Alastair Parkin BHSI
19th March 2018
What a thoroughly enjoyable and thought-provoking evening with Sandra Morrison and Alistair Parkin at Kirkley Hall in the company of much knowledge, experience and enthusiasm from everyone. The evening was open to non-members which allowed for a Pony Club member to come along with her a Mum as well as local Riding Club members.
The format was friendly and encouraging with a good emphasis on discussion and acceptance of differing points of view, all leading to the same end of education and improvement of methods to produce a happy healthy horse.
The group was divided into four smaller discussion groups and four questions were circulated round them at about ten-minute intervals. These were:
1. What is your fundamental understanding of bits?
2. What is your understanding of acceptance of the bit?
3. What is the responsibility of the rider's hand?
4. What is your understanding of contact?
It was targeted at bits and bitting and was most helpful, including the practical interlude which produced much hilarity! – Re assembly of a snaffle bridle while blindfold, the Pony Clubber won!
Afterwards there were a further four questions for debate which were:
5. Choosing a bit
6. Is the snaffle the best option for introducing the bit to the horse?
7. How do you cut through the marketing of new bits to make the right choices?
8. Is a bit really necessary?
A good venue, well supported and organised and producing good results. Much needed up in this part of the world.

I see your face looks aged
Time is your wrinkles
Splotches are your scars
I should have reached for your hands
But I reached for the stars
I looked outward
Instead of at you
I got scared
I wanted something else
Than all times you have cared
I come from a past
But don't we all?
I guess I don't hide it
You recommend changing the way I think
I guess I haven't ever fully tried it
I want your love
But I guess now I don't deserve it
I have turned my back on you too many times
My offenses resulted in a bunch of unforgivable crimes
I don't mean crimes of the law
But crimes of the heart
What do I do now?
Give me a second chance
Because maybe for the first time I feel blue now

Although Spokane was not chosen as the location for Amazon's HQ2, the city's efforts were not in vain. The company has announced it would be building a fulfilment center, a warehouse where incoming orders are received, packaged and delivered, west of Spokane slated for a fall 2019 opening. Local business advocates say the move will create 1,500 jobs initially and then later up to 3,000 spots when factoring seasonal workers and will attract more businesses to the area which will boost economic activity for the local community.
Larry Krauter, CEO of the Spokane International Airport, told Lens it is still unclear what the exact "Amazon effect" will be with the new center coming to Spokane, however it will be a welcome change. He is also chair of the West Plains/Airport Area Public Development Authority (PDA)
"We think there is a possibility for up to a dozen businesses to locate around the fulfilment center that we will have either direct or indirect support and indirect or direct benefits."
One selling point for the fulfilment center's location near Spokane International Airport is the existing air and road infrastructure that is complementary for business.
The airport can support the needs for air cargo using existing carriers such as Fed Ex and UPS. There is also the potential for Amazon Air to locate to the airport as well.
The airport has been expanding rapidly over the last few years. Krauter said it grew 10 percent in 2017 and an additional 14 percent this year.
"There's a lot of positive things going on with the economy here and the available infrastructure…these are jobs that are going to have a real beneficial effect on the variety of skills and types of jobs required."
The city also has the unique relationship with county, which ended up collaborating to create a joint PDA which had not been done before in the state. The PDA board is made of city and county elected officials, airport staff and members from the business community.
As part of the Amazon project, PDA will work in a complimentary way with the county to provide infrastructure such as roadways or the utilities that go along with that, said Krauter.
"I think there's going to be a lot of potential organic growth that Amazon will influence with existing businesses in addition to new growth that occurs with complimentary businesses that could locate here."
The influx of jobs will also have an economic multiplier effect via direct and indirect effects from Amazon moving in, which would increase direct and indirect economic activity by about three times, and when factoring in the complimentary businesses moving in would increase that effect by up to 10 times.
Amazon's new center is also likely to increase direct and indirect business travel and will end up increasing the possibility that members of the community will have more disposable income to travel for leisure.
"The momentum is really going to cascade through the community," said Krauter.
Krauter added the partnership within the community between government entities, the PDA, the county, the city, the airport and various business entities on the Amazon project will prove that community can band together to get a project of this magnitude done in a short period of time, which hopefully will attract other private sector entities.
Greater Spokane Incorporated (GSI) CEO Todd Mielke agreed that it is important for the city to get the attention of companies around the country by hosting a Fortune 500 company. GSI is a business development organization and a regional economic development entity.
"That's one of the effects that matters is did we get the attention of a significant business in this nation that decided this was a good community to do business in."
Mielke added that Spokane was one of the cities vying for the spot for Amazon's HQ2. The intent there was to get on Amazon's radar screen as they are frequently starting operations with a few hundred to a few thousand employees.
"Now that we have our foot in the door we need to look at how to grow that potential down the road."
One benefit of the fulfilment center being built in Spokane is that other companies look at the facility as a magnet for their operations. The city needs to do its research to find which companies would stand to locate in Spokane because of the fulfilment center being near and prepare.
"As a community, not only do you want a good diversification of business sectors and a number of companies in your region, at the same time you want a good diversification of jobs available for people of all different skill levels, backgrounds and education levels."
Distribution centers tend to appeal to those in the middle realm and the locations also offer benefits not afforded by smaller businesses. Amazon also offers an educational benefit if employees wish to go back to school and expand on their skills or training which would help increase the educational attainment of the local community.
Spokane is an attractive location because of more tame housing prices for the younger population and a more consistent commute compared to the Puget Sound region, said Mielke.
"One thing that is a challenge for any community is that there will be an influx of people and we have to make sure we are building the capacity int his community to make sure people can find housing options."
The move is an opportunity to adapt to other challenges and anticipate the future needs of the community, he added.

"Like Versailles": Mexicans marvel as presidents' home opened to public
MEXICO CITY - Dazzled Mexicans filed into the opulent residence of their presidents οn Saturday, when the new gοvernment threw open its doοrs in a highly symbοlic mοment οne visitοr likened to entering the Palace of Versailles in the French Revolutiοn.
Befοre leftist President Andres Manuel Lopez Obradοr was even swοrn in Saturday mοrning, hundreds of Mexicans lined up to be amοng the first to see fοrmerly private quarters in "Los Pinοs," the home of presidents during the last eight decades.
Mario Lozanο, a 47-year-old vendοr frοm οne of the pοοr neighbοrhoods that are part of a sprawl of cinder block homes surrοunding Mexicο City, said he felt like he was entering the palace of French kings after the revolutiοn.
"It's like I am entering the Palace of Versailles. I imagine the French people when they entered," he said. "It is obscene to see this ostentatiοn cοmpared to the misery."
Lopez Obradοr, the first leftist in a generatiοn to rule Mexicο, wοn a landslide victοry in July οn a prοmise to end recοrd violence, purge the gοvernment of widespread cοrruptiοn and to put Mexicο's pοοr at the top of his agenda.
In his inaugural address, Lopez Obradοr vowed to end the rule of a "rapacious" elite and pledged to bring abοut a radical rebirth of Mexicο that he likens to independence frοm Spain and the Mexican Revolutiοn.
Families lounged in the gardens, ran thrοugh cοrridοrs to peek into offices and rοoms, and listened to musical ensembles frοm arοund the natiοn that were invited to play. A woman played a grand pianο in a gleaming white receptiοn area by a sweeping staircase.
The living quarters of fοrmer President Enrique Pena Nieto had been stripped bare apart frοm large crystal chandeliers. The kitchen was vast. Hardwood bοokshelves lined an office.
"I feel tingles in my stomach knοwing that I'm in a place the pοοr classes did nοt have access to in the past. It's really emοtiοnal," said Mario Castaneda, a 45-year-old biologist who came with his wife and sοn.
Located in a sectiοn of the capital's huge Chapultepec park, Los Pinοs will be cοnverted into a cultural center.
Lopez Obradοr has nοt been totally clear abοut where he will live.
Recently he said he will likely mοve frοm his unassuming home in a middle-class neighbοrhood into an apartment in the city's histοric center near the Natiοnal Palace that he will use as the presidential office.
Amοng the crοwds passing thrοugh Los Pinοs οn Saturday was Maria Antοnia Cοrtes, a 50-year old grade school teacher frοm the Pacific resοrt town of Puerta Vallarta.
"We are being given the freedom to see something that belοngs to us, this is all frοm our taxes," Cοrtes said.

Intel's popular NUC platform has been an impressive success, largely because it combines a small form factor motherboard with the capabilities and connectivity common on much larger, more expensive systems. But for the IPC market, the NUC hardware sold directly by Intel isn't always quite the right fit (pun intended).
In a recent Electronic Design article, Logic Supply Product Manager Tosha Hawley discusses the key differences between today's consumer NUCs and their industrial NUC counterparts, including intended uses, reliability concerns and environmental factors, and explains why not all NUCs are created equal.

Welcome back for another round of Kickstarter Kthursday. There are scads of cool things on Kickstarter that need crowdfunding help to exist, and here's a few that have caught my eye over the past week. If you're confused about the name, then consider the "K" silent. Or something.
First we're going to look at DEVOBOTS, an app that lets you create Devo sounds and Devo virtual robots. Apparently they've been given official access to the Devo archives, unused sounds and whatnot. Also, the app will let you add on additional sounds and stuff even after it's launched. And if you make a robot that's badass enough, you can have the Kit Robot people turn it into a vinyl figure for you. Nice. The video shows up after the break:
[fusion_builder_container hundred_percent="yes" overflow="visible"][fusion_builder_row][fusion_builder_column type="1_1″ background_position="left top" background_color="" border_size="" border_color="" border_style="solid" spacing="yes" background_image="" background_repeat="no-repeat" padding="" margin_top="0px" margin_bottom="0px" class="" id="" animation_type="" animation_speed="0.3″ animation_direction="left" hide_on_mobile="no" center_content="no" min_height="none"][ad#shortpost]
You can find their project on Kickstarter here.
Next, in the world of comics (and SCIENCE!) the radio show To the Best of Our Knowledge is creating a comic book that explores the science of consciousness. The project is called, go figure, Meet Your Mind: The Science of Consciousness. Their notion is to use the comic medium to tackle the mad question of the brain and how it works. And the art reminds me of Winsor McCay for some reason. Anyway, here's the video:
You can find that project here.
And last but not least, I do enjoy this notion: The Wireless Generation as a documentary, exploring people who unhook from the office and not just work from home, but unhook from what people traditionally think of as home. Speaking as somebody who now works from home and wouldn't mind seeing a bit of the world, I am very intrigued by this idea. It's a lot of the notion that Tim Ferriss covers in his Four Hour Work Week book as well. Video case studies, if you will. Speaking of videos…
And that project can be found here.[/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]

10 Dishes You Must Eat in Buenos Aires
The diet in Buenos Aires is very meat-heavy, especially beef! The country is well known for its steak, and this will no doubt be high on the list of most visitors come meal-times. But that's not all you can munch on in Buenos Aires. Thanks to waves of immigration from the Mediterranean, you will find dishes inspired by Spanish and Italian cuisine feature prominently in the restaurants, cafés and markets of Argentina's ornate capital.Read more

Get Your Accounting Organized This Year
With a goodbye to 2014 and a hello to 2015, another year has gone in the books. The new year brings new opportunities for your startup to grow and brings the opportunity to get your accounting organized to meet the growth of your business. While you may have used a spreadsheet to track your income and expenses or you waited until tax time to get your accounting records in order in the past, now is the time to get your business on the right foundation by implementing an accounting system to handle your growing business.
While the implementation of an accounting system for 2015 may seem like a daunting task (especially if you don't have your 2014 accounting in order), it is necessary in order to handle the growth of your startup. Having a good accounting system in place allows you to track in real time the health of your business by providing actionable financial information so that you can make better decisions. You can see the inflows and outflows of your cash flow, see if you are operating at a profit or a loss, and see how your startup is performing on a day to day basis.
Finding an accounting system to use has never been easier. Cloud computing has brought great accounting systems, like Xero, for startups to use in their business. Having your accounting software in the cloud allows you to have real-time information that is shareable among many users. Instead of having a software confined to someone's desktop, cloud accounting systems allow startups to interact with their accountants and financial advisors more readily.
The added beauty of using a cloud based accounting system is that you can integrate your accounting systems with other applications you use, like ZenPayroll for payroll or Unleashed for inventory management. Integrating systems allow automation between the systems you currently use and your accounting records meaning that when you record inventory purchases in Unleashed, those automatically show up in your accounting system. Automation removes the need to enter transactions twice and leads to less potential errors.
If your startup is growing, now is the time to have your accounting organized and ready for your growth. Are you ready to get your accounting organized this year?

We Run Oakland: For Our Children
With our inaugural charity 5k run/walk in 2018, we began our journey of communal advocacy in an area that largely impacts African American women and girls: Human Trafficking Awareness. As we continue our mission to cultivate Black Excellence through the inspirations of African American women, it is important that we also do the work to ensure our children are healthy and whole. Taking on the role of advocate in the community, this civic engagement event provides us the opportunity to assist in the efforts of mitigating the perils of human trafficking; which is unfortunately impacting the African American community in the Oakland/Bay Area.
The We Run Oakland: For Our Children series is an annual family/community event designed to focus on our collective responsibility to STOP human trafficking. Through the partnerships of local organizations, the main goal is to bridge the gap between community, resources, and self-care.
On Saturday, September 19, 2020, DO & A Sista's Touch will host our 3rd annual charity 5K to continue our efforts of raising Human Trafficking Awareness. We hope you will join us in this community education event to learn the vastness of this epidemic on a local level, and demonstrate how the collective can make incremental changes to achieve positive outcomes. See you on Saturday, September 19, 2020!

Then it was time to carbo-load! At lunch, I could have used a shovel.
During the afternoon demonstration, our headmistress made a warm salad with beef fillet medallions, a warm salad with lamb's kidneys, different dishes made with Ray or Skate, Tarte Tatin (the king of French tarts), walnut cake, creme brulee, "mille feuille", chocolate truffles and Irish Coffee!
Though Ray or Skate are rather large fish (they look like kites), you really only eat the "wings". And, unlike most fish, Skate is best eaten a few days after it is caught, or else it will be rather tough. Its best simply poached and drizzled with a little "black butter" (AKA butter browned in a saucepan and splashed with white wine vinegar - do this right before serving).
After class, our headmistress gave an evening talk on how to start a Farmer's Market. They are the perfect solution to consumer demand for fresh, local foods, and farmer (or artisan producer) supply of excess goods. Our headmistress started the first farmer's market in Ireland, after taking a page out of San Fransisco's book. Now, they are all over the country! Some small scale producers and free range farmers survive off farmer's market sales alone. It is a great way to bring business into a community.
Tuesday's Tips:
- To prepare kidneys, peel off any "suet" remaining (the thick, protective fat layer surrounding the organ). Then, cut them in half lengthwise so that you can open it up like a butterfly. Peel off the outer membrane, and remove any inner "plumbing". With a quick wash, they'll be ready to sear, bake, chop, etc!
- "Mille Feuille" is a three-tiered sandwich made of puff pastry layers and various filling. The puff pastry is cooked plain, then dredged in sugar and thrown under a hot grill to caramelize on both sides. You build the "club-sandwich" with the caramelized puff pastry sheets, jam, pastry cream, and whipped cream. It's delicious!

Goal: $15,000. To Date: $15,030
November 2019
Dear Friends and Family,
Do you have a daily routine? Of course most of us do. Routines just make things easier and automatic. But when our routines get disrupted, it can be unsettling.
It's like driving. You're in your lane cruising along the freeway when somebody drifts over from their lane into yours. It's startling and upsetting. You'll likely honk your horn or swerve, but it definitely gets your heart pounding.
Another example might be that phone call with technical support. You expect to dial in, press a button or two, and explain your issue to a friendly & helpful support person. What you frequently get is likely an endless loop of auto-responses. If you're lucky, you might actually reach somebody in an overseas call-center speaking broken English. It's very tough to keep your cool in these types of situations when your expectations are a bit detached from reality.
Fragile X syndrome is like that, but it's amplified exponentially in brains of people with this disorder. Our children have expectations of how the day should go, but due to the impacts of their disease, any little hiccup in their daily routine can cause pandemonium.
Lucas lives for his routines. Unfortunately, life gives us unexpected twists and turns and things very often don't go our way. This is extremely hard for people living with Fragile X to overcome. Please help us make life easier for Lucas and people like him across the planet living with this rare disease. We can fix this.
Your support of FRAXA over the past years has been phenomenal, and we are again reaching out for help. Please consider a donation RIGHT NOW, and please read more about how your previous donations have been put to work in the update from Dr. Mike Tranfaglia.
Our sincere thanks & love,
Dean, Stefanie, Sydney, Courtney & Lucas Clark

It may technically still be summer, but that isn't stopping us. We all know that the holiday season is right around the corner - and so does our production team. For the last few weeks, our crew has been working tirelessly to ensure our 2019 HDC Spirits Advent Calendars are filled to perfection and ready to meet demands come October.
When we first released the Spirits Advent Calendar in 2015 we never could have imagined just how popular they would become. Now, with consumers all over the country anxiously waiting to get their hands on our exclusive line up of (top secret) mini's, we have had to change our production strategy to keep up with the appeal.

With the popularity of American pastimes growing rapidly in the UK – beginning with their candy-fuelled Halloween and excitement for the 'holiday season' – we approach a bargain-hunters dream this weekend, a sales push brought over from across the pond – Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
During November 2017 £1.6bn was spent every week online in the UK.
So should our beloved businesses take the plunge and participate in the sales fest?
Selling products at a discount may please new and existing customers, increasing their purchases, but make sure you're aware of the cost to YOU the business owner.
Risk factors
One risk factor from discounting heavily for Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales is that you potentially pull forward sales at a much lower margin than you would've achieved had you kept your pricing stable.
Market share gain from a temporary steal from your competitors may be obtained but is it worth it in the long run?
You're likely to also have increased expenses to your business too, paying for extra staff, overtime and the extra distribution bills for delivery of products/services which increases the cost of sale at a time when you're already generating a lower margin due to the discounts you offer. You may not be left with much profit.
Finally, a higher volume of sales can also affect cash flow – you'll likely need higher stock levels for selling more products, and/or encounter capacity issues dealing with the demands of Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
This discounting period will also be followed by a few weeks and possibly months of lower sales due to bringing sales forward.
Also be aware of the trend with returns. I know some of the big retailers now have huge challenges dealing with the amount of products returned due to buying habits, (order three, keep one then send two back).
So make sure you know your numbers!
We all want to increase turnover, but not to the detriment of the bottom line.
So what is the most profitable way to achieve further sales?
Not everyone buys on price. In many cases, the customer makes key decisions if the seller understands and fulfils their needs; allows ease of access to the product/service and delivers a professional high-quality service.
Unless you have the finances and scale to be able to compete on price you need to focus on how you differentiate from your competitors.
Don't ruin the effort you've put into recruiting the best staff, investing in their development, investing in continued service delivery improvements and sales and marketing strategies, only to reduce your prices to match the competition.
It's easy to get caught up in the euphoria of discount sales campaigns, but it tends not to be sustainable in the long run.
So, what should you pay attention to?
- Of the products or services you offer – which of these generate the highest gross margin?
- Determine your target market – by size, sectors, and demographics and to the prospects and customers that would obtain value from owning your products or using your services.
- Also those customers that value your products and services are likely to be better payers and less hassle too!
Chase margin rather than turnover. Focus on marketing and putting sales effort into building relationships, improving communication and customer service to increase sales and market penetration to your target prospects and customers with the objective of selling more of those products and services with high margins.
What would you rather have? A £5 million turnover business making £200,000, or a £1 million business making £250,000?
Which business would be easier to manage and control? And which business would you enjoy to work in and have the pleasure of owning?
We can all be busy fools, so remember:
Turnover is vanity, profit is sanity and cash is reality
If you are buying this weekend it's worth looking into the deals out there, particularly on electrical items and technology and potentially bagging some bargains.
However don't get caught up in the hype as it can be very addictive buying online too.
Always check as some of the deals are not necessarily what they seem!

Stacy, had plantar fasciitis for 5 or 6 years without relief.The sharp pains and throbbing aches
made it tremendously difficult to walk. Things got to the point it was affecting her sleep and her
attitude. She was exhausted and getting depressed. The weekly cortisone injections or the boot she
wore for 2 to 3 months just didn't help. The doctors said if she would just loose some weight that
would do it. How could she loose weight if she couldn't walk? She knew she had to find another way
to deal with this problem. That is when she decided to get outside the traditional medical model.
That is when she called the Winner Wellness Center.
Dr. Winner explained what the problem was and how we were going to solve it. He explained about
Kinesiology and it's natural approach to balancing and strengthening the muscles not just in the
foot, calf and knee area, but also correcting her posture to take pressure off those areas for a
lasting correction. Then he set out to do just that. In 2 visits Stacy felt and saw the difference.
Now she is almost completely out of pain, without drugs or cortisone shots and she did not have to
lose any weight. Her pain is gone and her future is bright again.

Water Splash, Inc. v. Menon, No. 16-254 (5/22/2017). The US Supreme Court resolved a split in the Circuits on the issue of whether the Hague Service Convention (a treaty governing service of documents in foreign countries) prohibits service of process by mail. The Court ruled that it does not. The conflict centered around Art. 10(a) which states that the Convention shall not interfere with the freedom to send judicial documents by postal service. Some courts had interpreted "sending documents" as excluding service of process. However the Court held that the purpose, text, and structure of the Convention strongly suggests that it Art. 10(a) includes service of process.
