Australian Dust Control has a Dust Collector suitable for many applications across a range of industries. No job is too small or too big for Australian Dust Control's design team.
Instant Access, located at Auburn in NSW, specialise in the manufacture of aluminium scaffold.
Instant Access was updating its manufacturing facility with the purchase of a new docking saw.
Australian Dust Control was commissioned to design and install a twin cartridge mobile Dust Collector for Instant Access.
The mobile cartridge Dust Collector had only one pick up point and was fitted with a 4kw fan.
The waste produced in the manufacturing process is aluminium shavings which discharge directly from the docking saw into plastic waste bags at the base of the twin filters. These aluminium shavings are then ready for recycling.
Australian Dust Control is committed to helping its customers provide a clean and safe working environment as well as maximising energy efficiency.
The installation of the mobile cartridge Dust Collector provided an environmentally friendly filtration system for the customer.

"Should I get an internship?"
That's the question I asked myself every year in college as I started thinking about what I was going to do each summer. Of the four summers I had during college (yes, I took a victory lap!), I spent the first three working standard summer jobs. I waited tables, worked in a warehouse, and then my crowning achievement – I fixed ticket jams at Chuck E. Cheese!
It was about the cash…
All those jobs paid me well for a college student. I was able to take my girlfriend out on nice(ish) dates, plan some weekend beach trips, and, on occasion, even swap out my Ramen and Steak-umms for a nice DiGiorno! I mean, what college student doesn't want extra cash?
But, at some point, that cash dried up and I knew I needed to think more long-term. No matter how much cash I made during the summer, the chances of my wallet being empty again sometime during the fall semester was sitting at about 100%. I realized I needed something else.
I needed experience!
And I needed real-world coaching. My professors were great, and they worked hard to make sure I was prepared for life after college. But they also wanted to make sure the other students graduating with my same degree (my competition) were also prepared. I needed something else to make me stand out from my peers, and I just didn't think Chuck "Entertainment" Cheese was going to be it.
What to look for in an internship
It can be confusing and overwhelming. With just a quick search of "marketing internships", the results seemed endless! I had to remember why I was looking at internships instead of summer jobs in the first place. I boiled it down to a few questions:
- Is it paid?
- Will I enjoy it?
- Will I gain valuable professional training and experience?
- Will I gain valuable professional connections?
- Will they be invested in me after the internship?
Is it paid?
Uh hello… Just because it's not the most important thing doesn't mean it's not important. If I wanted to volunteer, I'd go to a charity! I didn't expect to make a ton of money in an internship, but if I was planning on working my butt off for a company, I expected to be compensated in some way. I'm not free labor.
Will I enjoy it?
Similar to the question above… An internship didn't need to be the most fun thing I had ever done in my life, but it did need to keep my attention. As I started looking into the many internships I found in my search, I began to see that many of them were working in a stuffy office doing mainly administrative tasks (fancy phrase for filing papers), While some may enjoy that sort of thing, it was not for me!
Will I gain valuable professional training and experience?
It's one thing to be able to list any old internship on a resume. That may help you land an interview with a great company down the road. But once you get into the interview and are asked what you accomplished during the internship, is the list long or short? Is it impressive or boring? Is the experience you gained going to give you a head start on other new employees? The experience itself didn't seem valuable, I said "next" and moved onto looking at the next internship.
Will I gain valuable connections?
This is a subject I didn't think about at first during my internship search, but we've all heard the adage "It's not what you know, but who you know". And while I don't like the dismissive nature of that statement toward knowledge, it certainly has an element of truth. When searching for an internship I wanted to know if the people I would be working for or working with were connections that could possibly help me start my full-time career in the field I wanted.
Will they be invested in me after the internship?
We've all heard the stories about someone who took an internship, worked hard, put it on their resume, but never heard from the company they interned for ever again outside of using them as a reference check. That's not what I wanted. I wanted a company that would work to be an active participant in my career growth after the internship ended. A company that would help me with interview coaching, resume editing, job seeking tips, etc.
After you've asked all these questions, that incredibly long list of internship options should have been narrowed down quite a bit. For me, it lead me to AC. And for the last 10 years, my past experience as an AroundCampus intern has been a focal point in my career growth. No one internship is right for everyone, but if you're anything like me then an internship with AC is probably perfect for you.

Political science students present policy reports to New Orleans City Council

Loyola press release - May 4, 2009
Political science students from Loyola University New Orleans' College of Social Sciences presented research findings on ad valorem tax and taxicab policies to the city's Governmental Affairs Committee on Monday.
The report, "An Examination of Ad Valorem Tax Policy in New Orleans," was compiled by Jamie Boudreaux, a senior from Baton Rouge, La., Maria Patselikos, a junior from Metairie, La., and Kevin Welsh, a junior from Gramercy, La. Robert Cade Cypriano, a senior from Baton Rouge, and Cameron Sasnett, a sophomore from Gretna, La., presented "New Orleans Taxicab Policy."
From the ad valorem project, students reported to the committee that New Orleans' unique allowance of public-private tax levying authority raised transparency and patronage issues. According to the taxicab report, New Orleans' oversaturation of taxicab licensing has produced a poorly-functioning system compared to cities of similar size.
The research projects were completed as part of the course, Policy Research Shop, taught by Peter Burns, Ph.D., associate professor of political science.
Students chose topics of high interest to provide research and policy reports to local officials in New Orleans. Last Wednesday, the students presented a report on the city's request for proposals to recovery chief Ed Blakely. Other topics researched include school governance and road repair and maintenance in New Orleans.
The Government Affairs Committee, headed by City Councilwoman Shelley Midura, reviews recommendations for appointments to boards and commissions and provides citizens with a greater understanding of how the council, administration and community work together through various boards and commissions.
For more information, contact Burns at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 504-865-2299.

The Employers Association of New Jersey goes national next month with its first online employment law course for human resources professionals across the United States.
EANJ President John Sarno, an employment attorney, will teach the live online course, being presented in a partnership with LexisNexis and XpertHR. There will be nine sessions, each lasting 90 minutes, from Sept. 20 to Nov. 15.
"It has been our goal to go national now for a number of years, and we've finally been able to achieve that," Sarno said.
EANJ will continue to pursue its mission of providing employment law courses and seminars geared to the needs of New Jersey employers. But Sarno said national employment law, much of it driven by U.S. Supreme Court rulings, accounts for a significant amount of the legal knowledge HR professionals in New Jersey and nationwide require to do their jobs.
"Our mission is focused on our geographic location, but what the Web allows us to do is transcend the limitations of our physical boundaries, and that really gives us a national outreach," Sarno said.
Sarno said in recent years, the U.S. Supreme Court has altered the federal employment law landscape.
For example, the court "has dramatically changed the law on retaliation — who can sue an employer for retaliation," Sarno said. "And it has dramatically changed the defenses an employer has to that type of lawsuit."
Among the topics the course will address: federal civil rights laws, background checks, gender and pregnancy, discriminatory and unequal pay, religious discrimination and reasonable accommodation, employees with disabilities, age discrimination, and workplace harassment and retaliation.

I just finished off a pair of socks for charity. Which one? I'm not sure yet. I usually knit for CIC and will put it in the bag to see if the next campaign is for socks. Right now we are doing vests & sweaters, and while I already sent in 2 vests, I wasn't happy with them. So I cast on for another one. While I'm loving the vest, it looks much bigger than a size 3-4, so it may be going to another charity that is looking for bigger vests.
I'll post a picture of that once it's complete, meanwhile here are my socks.
I used up some wool ends that I had hanging around to make these.
But I thought they were too light and would show dirt too quickly so I pulled out some Cherry Kool-aid and nuked them!
They look and smell great!

Ford Accused of Cheating on Federal Emissions Standards
- Written by Claudia Newton
- Published in Wire Reports
A lawsuit filed on Wednesday alleges that Ford Motor Co. installed software on some of its diesel trucks to aid in cheating on federal emissions tests, Reuters reports.
The lawsuit was filed in Michigan on behalf of truck owners by law firm Hagens Berman. It says that, in normal driving, Ford's F-250 and F-350 Super Duty trucks released from two to five times the emissions allowed by federal regulations.
"Ford knew consumers would pay more for a powerful and efficient diesel option, and manipulated the emissions system to obtain the power and performance it wanted, while hiding illegal levels of pollution," the law firm explained. Within the past year, the firm has also accused General Motors Co., Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV and engine maker Cummins, Inc. of similar behavior.
Ford denied any wrongdoing.
"All Ford vehicles, including those with diesel engines, comply with all U.S. EPA and CARB emissions regulations. Ford vehicles do not have defeat devices. We will defend ourselves against these baseless claims," said spokesman Daniel Barbosa.
German supplier Robert Bosch was also named as a defendant in the lawsuit. Spokesperson Rene Ziegler said that Bosch takes such allegations "very seriously."
"Bosch is cooperating with the continuing investigations in various jurisdictions, and is defending its interests in the litigation," she added.
Volkswagon is of course the most recent automobile manufacturer found to have cheated on federal emissions testing, a fiasco that has cost them as much as $30 billion since Sept. 2015. Bosch also made multi-million dollar payments for its part in installing software that allowed the cheating.

'TUF 18' Finale Bonuses: Benoit Earns $100,000 in Defeat; Diaz, Holdsworth Take $50K
Ryan Benoit got an "L" on his record but some extra zeros on his paycheck. | Dave Mandel/Sherdog.com
Ryan Benoit may not have walked away with a victory at "The Ultimate Fighter 18" finale, but he did pocket $100,000 in post-fight bonus money.
Benoit was awarded two $50,000 shares for "Fight of the Night" following his hard-fought flyweight bout with Josh Sampo, who failed to make weight ahead of their duel. As a result, UFC President Dana White gave Sampo's bonus money to Benoit, who submitted to a second-round rear-naked choke in the evening's opening contest.
"TUF 18" finalist Chris Holdsworth earned "Submission of the Night" honors for his rear-naked choke finish of Davey Grant, while lightweight headliner Nate Diaz roughed up Gray Maynard with a violent barrage of punches to secure "Knockout of the Night." Both winners were awarded $50,000 for their efforts.
The "TUF 18" finale took place Saturday night at Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas and also saw Julianna Pena crowned as the first female winner of the long-running reality show.

I saw that Iro was discontinued and on sale at a remarkable price. I had always wanted to use it for a BIG project, but thought it would be beyond my budget. The price was right, and so I purchased 10 skeins and plan to use it to do the Great Lengths Coat from Knits that Fit and Flatter. Until I start I will simply touch this beautiful yarn and admire the colors and texture of it.

Most Church Planters sense the call of God to preach. One of the reasons you probably went into the church planting business was so you could preach the gospel to others. You sense you are a good communicator, passionate about preaching, and confident that you can get others to hear you preach.
Preaching the gospel is a top priority for the church. Preaching the gospel, according to the Scriptures is the chief means (the way God employs to get grace to work in us) of grace in us. Gospel-centered preaching believes that Jesus Christ can change any person or institution through the power of his gospel. Gospel preachers let the gospel do its work.
The Gospel Coalition's resources website for preaching lists very different approaches to preaching the gospel, but don't get confused by it all. If you are new to preaching on a regular basis, it will take you awhile to find not only your style, but also your model. Remember, whatever model you follow it will answer how you believe God changes people.
7 Models for Gospel-Centered Preaching:
1. Grammatical-historical Exposition
2. Repentance and Faith
3. Christ's Work is the Solution
4. Christ is Present in the Text
5. The Gospel Dance
6. Radical Free Grace
7. Bad News/Good News
All of the above mentioned models are antithetical to the moral based religious preaching that pervades the North American Protestant Church. Most of the moralistic models follow this line of thinking:
1. Here is what God says in the Bible that you must do.
2. Here are the steps of how you are to do what God has said in the Bible you are to do.
3. Now, go and work those steps and God will help you—and if you fail, he will forgive you.
Examine your own sermons and check yourself. What is the basic message you preach as to how people are transformed? Is it by the finished work of Jesus Christ, through his life, death, and resurrection or is it by our obedience and efforts to "live for Jesus" once we have believed?

The US and India have signalled their intent to "forge ahead" with climate action, driving the world closer towards meeting its landmark climate agreement.
Meeting in Washington this week, India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President Barack Obama agreed to bring the Paris Agreement into effect as soon as possible, preferably this year, and strengthened commitments to phase down the supercharged climate pollutants used in refrigeration.
They also agreed to make clean energy a priority, pledging $20 million in finance to help power up to 1 million Indian homes, along with another $40 million dollars for small-scale renewables in rural off-grid areas.
While the two leaders offered little in the way of specifics for meeting these pledges, the joint commitment shows India and the US are on the same page when it comes to climate, and – together responsible for over 20 per cent of global emissions – it offers yet another "jolt of momentum" to international efforts towards a clean energy and climate-safe future.
Key Points
- Two of the most influential countries in the world are on the same page on climate. The US is the world's second largest polluter, while India accounts for nearly 7 per cent of global emissions, and is expected to increase its share rapidly in coming years. This week's meeting is the seventh between the two leaders since 2014, and by joining forces on climate they have shown their understanding that "long-term prosperity must be underpinned by a stable climate," and sent another strong signal of countries' collective commitment to meet its global climate agreement.
- Bolstering renewables brings huge benefits to vulnerable communities. In India, close a quarter of the population still does not have access to electricity, and research shows that renewables offer a more affordable, practical and healthy solution to energy poverty, than their dirty counterparts like coal. By leapfrogging fossil fuels in favour of clean renewables, countries such as India, would be able to tackle widespread poverty without the harmful impacts to people's health.
- Now is the time for leaders to cement the climate legacies they etched out in Paris. With renewables booming, and fossil fuels caught in a death spiral, it is little wonder that government after government is lining up to reaffirm their commitment to climate action. Those leaders putting their best foot forward are already reaping the huge climate, health and economic benefits of the clean energy transition, while those countries, like Australia and Japan, who continue to obstruct progress in favour of out-dated fossil fuels are showing themselves to be increasingly out of touch with reality and losing clout on the international stage.

United States District Court, E.D. California
April 9, 2014
JESSE CORNISH, Petitioner,v.ATTORNEY GENERAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, Respondent.
EDMUND F. BRENNAN, Magistrate Judge.
Petitioner is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. He challenges a judgment of conviction entered against him on July 16, 2010 in the Sacramento County Superior Court on charges of attempted murder and discharge of a firearm, with firearm use enhancements. He seeks federal habeas relief on the ground that his trial counsel rendered ineffective assistance by failing to investigate and present a defense of voluntary intoxication. Upon careful consideration of the record and the applicable law, it is recommended that petitioner's application for habeas corpus relief be denied.
I. Background
In its unpublished memorandum and opinion affirming petitioner's judgment of conviction on appeal, the California Court of Appeal for the Third Appellate District provided the following factual summary:
On the night of March 12, 2008, defendant Jesse Cornish shot Jabarie Mike in front of Mike's home and continued firing as Mike retreated into his residence. Defendant was convicted of attempted murder (Pen. Code, §§ 664/187, subd. (a)) and discharging a weapon at an inhabited dwelling (Pen. Code, § 246).[1] The jury also found that defendant personally used and discharged a firearm (§§ 12022, subd. (b)(1), 12022.53, subds. (b), (c) & (d)) and caused great bodily injury (§ 12022.7, subd. (a)). The trial court sentenced defendant to an aggregate term of 32 years to life in state prison.[2]

Defendant shot Mike as the result of a verbal altercation between Mike and defendant's girlfriend, Arika Shaw. Mike worked with Shaw at an Applebee's restaurant in Elk Grove. On March 11, 2008, Mike complained to Shaw about a coworker, Kjerstie Montgomery. When Shaw defended her, Mike stated she should not be so quick to do so because Montgomery was not a good friend to Shaw. In support of his claim, he related that Montgomery inappropriately had shared with him a confidence about Shaw's sex life. Shaw became angry with Mike and went outside. Defendant was in the parking lot waiting to pick up Shaw when her shift ended. Shaw told defendant about the altercation and then went back inside.
Mike left to run an errand. Defendant confronted him and asked if he had a problem with Shaw. Mike denied having a problem and cut off the conversation to go run his errand. Shaw finished her shift and left work with defendant. Thereafter, Mike telephoned her repeatedly and complained about defendant's conduct. Mike said he wanted to fight defendant and Shaw hung up on him. Mike called back again and defendant took the phone from Shaw and spoke with him. Mike yelled at defendant about the confrontation at work but defendant remained calm.
Thereafter, defendant decided he wanted to fight Mike, asked Shaw to show him where he lived, and she complied. When they arrived at Mike's house, defendant pulled out a gun, claiming it was only for self-defense if necessary. Defendant got out of the car but then changed his mind about fighting with Mike, telling Shaw he did not "want to do that in front of [her]."
The next night, Mike worked the night shift with Shaw and Montgomery, and the atmosphere was "flat." Montgomery told Mike her boyfriend had just been released from jail and Mike should not have "opened up [his] mouth." Mike also felt threatened by defendant's conduct the day before. Because he feared for his safety, Mike called his girlfriend's brother, Frederick Coner, to come to Applebee's and escort him home after work. Coner arrived and the two men drove to Mike's home in their respective cars after Mike's shift ended around 9:00 p.m.
Mike lived nearby in a house he shared with his girlfriend, her mother, and three other people. When Coner decided to leave he discovered his car would not start. Around 10:30 p.m., Mike was helping Coner jump his car battery when he noticed a small red car do a U-turn and stop across the street. Two men exited the car and approached Mike, who was still wearing his Applebee's uniform. One of the men, who Mike later identified as defendant, had a "mean mug" expression. Defendant walked toward Mike, raised his arm, and began firing the gun he was holding. Mike turned and ran towards the house, but was shot through the thigh before he reached safety. Defendant continued shooting at the house after Mike went inside.
Neighbors heard multiple gunshots about 10:30 p.m., witnessed a red car speeding away, and called 9-1-1 to report a shooting. When the police responded, they found Mike wounded and several slugs in the structure of the house.
Mike spoke briefly with the police before being transported to the hospital and spoke with them again at the hospital. He did not remember exactly what he said because he was in pain and in shock. Mike recalled telling a police officer that a light skinned black man shot him and he was accompanied by a Hispanic male. At that time he did not tell the police he thought the shooter was defendant. However, when a detective visited him at home midday the next day, Mike told the detective that he thought Shaw's boyfriend shot him and that if he saw him he could identify him. A few days after the shooting, Mike viewed a photographic lineup and selected defendant as his assailant. Mike could not identify the man who accompanied defendant, and Coner was unable to identify anyone from the lineup. At trial, Mike adamantly identified defendant as his assailant.
Detectives Sanchez and Bearor questioned defendant, who waived his Miranda rights. Defendant denied shooting Mike and claimed he did not know where he lived. Defendant stated that on the night of the shooting, he drove from his mother's house in Rancho Cordova to the Applebee's in Elk Grove to return Shaw's car around 7:00 p.m. Then he went to Fresno with his brothers, Meshach and Ammiel, and Ammiel's girlfriend in her car. According to defendant, a trip to Fresno takes about 90 minutes. When they reached Fresno, they ran a few errands for about 30 minutes before returning to his mother's house in Rancho Cordova. They arrived back about 10:00 or ...

The car is a 1998 Ford Escort and the brake lights stay on. Tried pumping the brake pedal and changing the fuse but they still stay on...Any ideas as to what's going on here and if you know, is it an easy do it yourself and if not, how much would it be to fix it.Why would the brake lights stay on?the switch above the brake pedal could be stuck on and is not able to free itself,that should be easy to replace,try with a small pointy pair of plyers to free it,Why would the brake lights stay on?check brake light switchWhy would the brake lights stay on?Look under the dash , just off the brake pedal for a switch, see if
moisture and dust/dirt ( whatever ) is keeping it from springing back.
It could be the internal workings of the switch as well..
You may also want to check the connectors at the rear tail lights to
see if wiring or contacts may have melted together, possibly by
holding your foot on the brake pedal for an over-extended period
of time.Why would the brake lights stay on?Check your brakes. My wife had the same problem %26amp; turned out both her rotors %26amp; pads needed to be replaced in the front.Why would the brake lights stay on?the e-brake may not be all the way down if it is then it is a bad brake switch/sensor

Grimsby, Ontario
January 24th 2009
Grimsby, Ontario Four Witnesses Observe UFOs (Pictures)
Date: January 24, 2009
Time: Between 9:20 p.m. to 9:40 p.m.
Dear Brian, In the email body below is a little account of the anomaly myself and 3 other witnesses seen. It happened roughly between 9:20 PM to 9:40 PM. I don't have the exact time because wrist watches don't work on me, so I gave up on them and nobody else had the exact time, but when we walked back to the car it was 10:05pm and it was about a 10 minute walk we also stayed there for about 5 minutes after seeing it. The date was Saturday January 24th 2009. Location was in Grimsby, Ontario right bye the shores of Lake Ontario. It's in the Northwestern corner of the Lake and Between Hamilton and St.Catherine's, Ontario.The two other witnesses wish to remain unknown but can be contacted through telephone. The third witness was my young son.
In the pictures it is the same object but in two different colours. All I did was blown them up 3 separate times for each of the 2 pictures. I took a few more pictures but nothing came up, just the pictures I'm sending you.
Through the binoculars it had the 4 colours in pattern of green, white, yellow and red. But when we took the pictures it came out as solid white and solid red? The object moved a lot slower than a plane. To put it in perspective when the plane flew in when we first started to notice the object the plane was seen and gone in about 2 minutes if that. The movement of the object seemed to be coming in a capital L direction reversed from the St. Catherine's area toward Grimsby, then out toward the United States part of the Lake.
If you need to call or get in touch with the other witnesses, they said they will talk via telephone. After all this we joked with each other and went to believe it or not the Flying Saucer Restaurant for a bite to eat and warm up with coffee in Niagara Falls at 6768 Lundy's Lane. It was a cold typical Canadian night.
So that's all of it.

I am increasingly interested in finding creative ways to visualize data. A great example of what I mean is "The Geography of Jobs" (link here) visualization showing job losses and gains from around the country.
This really is an incredible way of showing the impact of local and larger events on jobs.

6/1/2017 guitar practice #26 Yeah, I'm not madly in love w it or anything. Just tryna get up to speed a little more. I may still wait a little while to get heavier strings, since I just got these way recently, but the thinner strings (11, 14, n sometimes the 19's) seem way too thin for me, out of the D'Addario NY XL 11/56 strings. (11, 14, 19, 32, 44, 56). I wasn't aware that it was some sort of half n half pack, n the circumstances had me rushed when choosing them. I usually don't even do anything w the thinnest strings. I feel like they're so light that they just sound odd. I can't see myself playing 16-72's though, lol.amethystdr... 00:09:43 45 0 Downloads 0 Comments
5/31/17 guitar practice #25 Trying some righthanded picking. I have electrical tape on my left index finger, as I've seen some metal musicians do. The "guitar callous fanatics" would seriously ostracize me for it. Lol. "No! YOU MUST DEVELOP AND BUILD CALLOUSES!" *imagines some guy in his kitchen, making creatine mix for his guitar callouses* Actually, the tape doesn't really seem to hinder anything. My clumsiness was for other reasons, such as... i'm more adjusted to holding the guitar lefthanded. N the electrical tape seemed to add distortion to certain parts where I wanted to, but a bare finger didn't do it well. It's been wondered why I would post my unpolished practices, but only a bandgeek would understand. As someone who played flute for 3 yrs in school n practiced at school everyday, as well as sometimes in the summer. I always had constructive criticism from myself n from bandclass. Plus, a lot of the stuff, after I practice it so long, i'm done with it, so.. I spent several hours today working on this, had a few practices of it recorded. Still couldn't manage to get it just right, but I think its bc of how I was holding the guitar n where/how I was sitting. I definitely have a preference for lefthanded picking, but I needed to adjust my shoulderstrap n everything n I probably would've been more comfortable w righthanded.amethystdr... 00:11:35 51 0 Downloads 0 Comments

We did not hold hands
As we stepped into my college.
Of life's responsibilities and duties on my shoulder,
I carried a heavy baggage.
We hugged when I got a job,
Adding to my family's income.
With loads of over-timings and insomnia,
Success and promotions was the expected outcome.
Now I hold her hand
When in the park we take a walk
This results from the irony brought by
The moving hands of the clock!
When she grows weak
I'll lift her in my arms.
With the same love and care
With which she protected me from all harms.

In this excerpt from my current Work in Progress, Marcie and Ryan have just met (the day before, when she mistook him for a burglar and called the police.) Now she is showing him around the area. They have toured Holbrook, driven a stretch of Old Route 66, and are now coming into Rainbow Rock, Marcie's home throughout her high school years.
Here is Ryan's first introduction to the town from RETURN TO RAINBOW ROCK.
He took the left and drove northeast toward the Navajo Nation. Another turn, just north of the airport, and a few short miles of two-lane highway, took him into the questionable center of Rainbow Rock. "So this is it, huh?"
Marcie smiled. "Yep, and I won't blame you if you want to launch into a chorus of 'Is That All There Is?' This place isn't much, but it's home."
"Is there even a high school here?"
"No, there isn't. Kids go to school here through eighth grade. Then the bus carries them into Holbrook for high school. It's only about a ten to twelve-minute ride, but I used to do much of my homework on the bus, coming and going."
"Smart kid, huh?"
She adopted a pensive look. "Not nearly smart enough."
Ryan chose to let that go. Instead he looked around at the small scattering of homes with a few public buildings. "I don't understand why there's a town here at all.""It surprises many of us," Marcie answered wryly.
Can Marcie, or any of us, go home again? Or do we make new homes in old places? Stay tuned for more excerpts.
Susan Aylworth is the author of eight published novels, all currently available in digital form for various e-readers. Her ninth book, ZUCCHINI PIE: GRANNY'S RECIPE FOR LIFE, is coming from Covenant Communications in June. RETURN TO RAINBOW ROCK will soon be available as an original e-book, the seventh in the Rainbow Rock series. Find Susan at www.susanaylworth.com or follow her @SusanAylworth.

Erica here.
For those of you faithful readers who have been following the blog since the beginning, you will remember Paul Atkin. For the recent blog readers, Paul was intern #2 (2006-2007). He's from Kelowna BC, Canada (a town not too far from my hometown Vancouver!) and he has come back to visit for one month. I took this opportunity to meet up with him and spring an interview. So if you ever wonder what happens to the interns after they leave the internship, well keep reading!
What have you been doing since the internship?
I went back and I have been enhancing my karate dojo (Kelowna Shotokan Karate). My father retired and I've taken over the dojo. Since returning, I went from 30 students to 90. I have about 50 kids and I've also opened up a second branch location of the dojo.
Aside from the dojo, I competed in the Canadian ShotoCanada Shotokan Nationals. I got gold in kumite and silver in kata.
What brings you back to Japan? The Wado Kai Nationals?
I've come back to visit all the friends I've made here, plus visit with my girlfriend's family.
What do you miss most about Japan?
The kids that I taught and the sense of purpose that the Japanese people hold. That respect and loyalty are very prominent. I find that if I ever get off track at home, coming back here puts me right back.
What do you miss least?
The weather. The hot, hot heat. That's it.
What was the most memorable moment/event for you?
I got take part in a Budo martial arts festival. Arakawa Sensei's dojo was chosen to represent Karate at the Nippon Budokan for the Kagami Biraki Festival in January 2007 when I was here (see post when later interns Carl Intern #4 & Lawrence Intern #3 attended the festival). I went to watch the event, but I got to partake in it. There were sumo wrestlers and people representing Judo. They broke a huge mochi (rice cake) and pieces were passed around to everyone. I stood amidst all these Japanese people representing different styles of martial arts and it was such an honour to be able to be a part of it...being non-Japanese and all.
What advice or words of wisdom do you have for Louise and I?
Just always try your best. Remember that you're carrying something that someone else had started and you are trying to make it better for the next person. If we keep finding the right people, I don't see why that's not going to happen. Oh and never quit.
Thank you Paul for those encouraging words and the best of luck at the Shotokan World's!
Coming soon: An interview with Carl Jorgenson, intern #4!!

A man's insistence that it is his religious right to wear a colander on his head has strained his relationship with the Russian government.
Andrei Filin is the latest 'Pastafarian' to win the right to wear a colander for his official driver's licence photos.
However, the deputy chief of Moscow's State Traffic inspectorate, Vladimir Kuzin, has said that Mr Filin's victory for the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster comes with a catch.
"The next time he is stopped by the traffic police, if he doesn't have a pasta strainer on his head, his licence will be taken from him," Mr Kuzin said.

Apparently jealous of all the legislative branch smartphone apps, the White House is joining the fray. You can now download a free application for your iPhone or iPod to watch White House streaming video, follow the White House blog, or other press statements. The app will be followed up with the launch of mobile.Whitehouse.gov.
While I'm sure there are some lemmings who download smartphone apps just to download apps, I'm not sure this is anything more than a version of the White House website optimized for the small screen of a mobile phone. That certainly seems to be what the mobile website will be. It does make me wonder why it took so long, since the website has been around for a year.

I'm going to attempt something a little odd today, Fools. Even though Nuverra Environmental Services (NASDAQOTH:NESC) stock makes up 1% of my real-life holdings, I'm going to be giving you three reasons to consider selling the stock today.
Why am I doing this?
Recently, Nobel Prize winner Daniel Kahneman visited Fool headquarters in Virginia. While visiting, he talked about how a number of different biases can lead us to believe we can predict the future with relative certainty. In reality, he argued, we are just deluding ourselves.
It got me to thinking about how I don't write enough about the risks of owning the stocks I own. So, though I don't plan on selling my Nuverra stock right now, I think it's healthy for me to practice and model this behavior.
1. Counting on natural gas to be the next big thing
Nuverra is a company whose goal is to be a one-stop shop to meet all of the water needs of the oil and gas industry. It has set up operations in all of the major shale plays in the United States, and has been building out a massive infrastructure of pipelines, trucking fleets, and water treatment facilities.
Although the company will certainly profit from continued oil exploration in North America, to fully reach its potential, it needs lots of natural gas companies as customers, too. Recently, there's been an explosion of natural gas production, due mainly to newer fracking techniques.
But there are three problems with counting on natural gas. The first is that, should fracking prove to be harmful to the environment, its use could severely curtail.
Second, there needs to be enough uses for natural gas out there for demand to meet supply. Westport Innovations (NASDAQ:WPRT) is trying to drive demand, by designing engines for machinery, trucks, cars, and locomotives that can run on natural gas. In conjunction with Westport, Clean Energy Fuels (NASDAQ:CLNE) is building out filling stations for these machines to fill up on natural gas. If the efforts of these two companies -- and others like them -- can't create enough demand for natural gas, the energy companies won't have an incentive to continue extracting natural gas from the earth.
Finally, natural gas prices are an important factor. If prices can continually stay below that of oil and gasoline, then people have an incentive to buy vehicles that can run on natural gas. If, however, natural gas prices are as high or higher than petroleum-based fuels, that demand could evaporate.
2. Not yet profitable, and carrying lots of debt
According to the company's most recent quarterly report, Nuverra is currently carrying a debt load of $562 million, and has just $18 million in cash and equivalents on hand. That's what happens when a small company attempts to build out the infrastructure to be a major player in an industry -- it has to spend a lot of money up front in hopes of future profits.
Investors need to combine this fact, with the reality that the company has yet to report a profitable year, in mind before investing. Nuverra has said its capital spending as about to shrink significantly, but there's no guarantee its past investments will eventually pay off.
3. Counting on limited clientele
The final knock on Nuverra is that it has a couple major energy companies that account for large parts of its revenue. In 2012, Shell and Chesapeake Energy accounted for 29% of all revenue. If either company were to find a different water-service provider, it would create a significant problem for Nuverra.
What I'm doing
Taking all of this into consideration, I'm happy that Nuverra currently only accounts for 1% of my portfolio. There's a lot of risk here, but a lot of upside potential as well.

8 Steps to Creating a High Converting Squeeze Page
When you create a squeeze page for your business it is extremely important that you capture as many emails and leads that you can. Without these leads or visitors emails, than having a business with a squeeze page seems like a waste of time. This is one of the only ways you can make sure that when they close that window that you still have a way to reach them.
Here, are 8 steps to creating a high converting squeeze page:
1. What Traffic Are You Targeting?
Be specific on the type of traffic that you want to receive on your page. If, you are able to narrow down the choices your conversion rates will be higher. It is pointless to try and create a page that is customized for everyone's taste. Your conversions and sales will suffer, as a result.
2. Pleasant graphics
Having eye catching graphics are important on your squeeze page. However, an overabundance of them is going to be annoying and possible slow. So, only have the best graphics and videos on your site that you absolutely must need to get the message across to your visitors.
3. Keywords which matches the ad
When a potential customer comes to your website, it is because you are providing a solution to a problem they are experiencing. So, when you match your keywords then make sure that your keywords are also shown on your landing page.
4. Attention.
Having your visitor's attention on the website when they come to visit you is essential. If, you do not grab their attention then they will most likely close the window and forget about you. The best way to grab attention is with the headline and sub headline on your site. So, in your opening headline discuss the reason why the person clicked there. When they got their use the sub headline to talk about the solution you have to their problem. If, you grab their attention in the first 3 seconds, they will stay to read the rest of your page.
5. Benefits.
Always talk about the benefits to, Make it clear to your visitors the complete benefits they are going to receive by signing up with you and not your competitor. Sales are the process of creating a need vs. want. One way many have done this is through trying to provoke an emotion into your potential customers.
6. Graphics - Video/Report
Packaging is a hard concept to do while online. People like to touch their product in any way they can. This makes it, seem more "real" in the digital world. So, creating an eye catching graphic on for a cover can help with this experience.
7. Call to action
When a visitor lands on your squeeze page always make it clear and understandable what you would like them to do. However, never make them guess why they are there always make clear and understandable terms on why they got to your page.
It has been documented that people seem to react to a specific request when presented to them. If, you ask them for an email address most of the time they will provide one to you. This increases your conversions and builds your list for future promotions.
8. Split Testing.
Every squeeze page you build needs a twin with the same product. The variations you create on your landing pages and different ways you set up your boxes will help you get a better understanding which pages are more effective. Then you can combine the two positive aspects of the landing pages and get higher conversion rates with just one. Once you have combined them, you will have a squeeze page doing the work of two. A lot, of time its trial, error, and statistical hunting for the right combination.
You can have the greatest most awesome and excellent squeeze page that promises 100% conversions. However, who will ever see it? The main point in creating one of these pages is to educate people on your business or prospect. So, always promote and market your squeeze page to get traffic to it. At the end of the day, you will have many more people visiting and converting them into subscribers than you could imagine. Then with a little more money in your pocket, you can concentrate on your next business adventure.

text: KIRKUS REVIEW A West Texas park ranger's fatal mauling by a mountain lion is only the first of a series of suspicious accidents in the Guadalupe Mountains. Soon after, ranger Anna Pigeon, who's not satisfied with the way the official story blames Sheila Drury's death on innocent animals who are killed in retaliation, nearly falls to her death from a mountain trail; then UFO-seeing herpetologist Craig Eastern is attacked by the snakes he's been collecting. The mystery behind these accidents is routine, but the casting of women in key positions of power--the coroner and chief ranger are also female--is refreshing, as is Anna's unconventional, and very human, attitude toward her chief suspect, Sheila's lover Christina. The only flaw in this modest hardcover debut is the testosterone behind the violence, an explanation just a bit too pat. But Anna's low-key, unafraid narration makes up for it.

text: Wealth management troubles rock bank On the surface it looked like a day of celebration for Swiss bank UBS as the company reported its best annual results since 2010. However, the firm, which has bases in Vancouver, Calgary and Montreal, was rocked as an unexpected outflow of funds and weakened margins saw its wealth management business take a hit. It saw a $3.3billion new money outflow from the wealth management branch of its business, prompted by an exodus across emerging regions. The reaction from the markets was strong and swift: shares slipped by close to nine per cent and reached their lowest levels for almost a year. According to finance chief Kirt Gardner, clients in some major upcoming markets including the Middle East, Brazil and Russia required liquidity largely due to the sharp slip in oil prices and the ongoing economic turmoil which had taken its toll on their wealth. However, he and the company's chief executive, Sergio Ermotti, chose to stick with the goal of three-five per cent growth across new inflows at its wealth management arm, which is seen as the company's flagship offering. In recent years, UBS has chosen to reduce its investment banking arm and focus on wealth management, which is now responsible for more than half of its profits. Speaking to reporters, Ermotti said that the outflow could have been avoided: but that he refused to chase business that would ultimately not be profitable over the long term. "There is enough growth for us out there. Discipline and focus is the winning formula," he said. Overall, UBS enjoyed a strong 2015 as net profits reached 6.20billion Swiss francs – well ahead of the 5.75billion francs that had been predicted in a poll by Reuters. SHARE

I've seen them in pretty much every Atlantic province: the warnings put out for that most scarce of things, the non-existent highway worker.
Now, I know that working on traffic-filled highways is a harrowing job; workers are regularly injured and even killed on the job by careless, speeding or distracted drivers. It's such a problem that some jurisdictions put up signs with photos of workers on them, identifying them as "Jason's Dad" or "Kevin's Mom" in an effort to personalize the people who are taking the risks.
It's also why there are often sharply increased fines for speeding in construction zones, and why "Move Over" legislation is needed to both slow vehicles down and to keep them away from people who are working or providing emergency services.
(If you can find one single tow-truck driver anywhere in the Atlantic provinces who hasn't had a close call with a dangerous driver, no matter how well lit up his or her tow truck is, I'd be amazed.)
But awareness, like almost any road, is a two-way street.
Related article:
Not long ago, travelling from Truro to the Halifax airport, I came across a well-established set of warnings for a construction site. It was on the divided highway, and, on both sides of the road, there were orange warning signs that construction was coming, followed by warnings about reduced speeds being strictly enforced, followed by signs that showed what the reduced speed would be, and finally, signs announcing the beginning of construction.
Except the anticipated construction wasn't there. It wasn't anywhere. Maybe it was because it was on the weekend, or maybe because I was travelling so early in the morning. It doesn't matter — what matters is that I was being asked to be extra-vigilant, aware and prepared for something that didn't exist.
By the time I'd passed the last set of signs, other cars were whipping by me. I do know that, for Nova Scotia at least, the signs are the applicable traffic speed even if there's no construction, the argument being that there either might be unseen workers, or that the road just isn't safe for higher speeds.
What I also know is that signs for phantom construction work doesn't make things one bit safer for constructions workers. In fact, it makes things more dangerous.
A letter to the editor in the St. John's Telegram pointed out the dangers last week: after passing a set of highway signs warning about the start of a construction zone, he started his trip odometer, and waited for the construction to appear — it did finally turn up, 15.5 kilometers beyond the last sign. On Tuesday, a Twitter user snapped a series of photographs of a Newfoundland highway that was all dressed up with construction signs, but with nothing on the go.
I've seen it in P.E.I., and I've seen it in New Brunswick. I've also sign crews in pickups trucks on a variety of highways turning signs around or laying them face down at the end of the work day.
Each of the Atlantic provinces has their own, very precise regulations for highway signs – the style they have to be, the colours that have to be used, the shapes of some signs. But what there also has to be is very precise rules about constructions signs — how close to construction they have to be placed and when they have to put left up or taken down. Those same rules have to be enforced.
Several provincial transportation departments warn that the highest risk in construction zones is from vehicles moving at different speeds. If you believe the signs, and others (perhaps legitimately) don't, dangerous variations in speed is exactly what you are creating.
Let's have some uncommon common sense here.

NewCORE – New Conversations on Race and Ethnicity – came together six years ago with a broad but essential mandate: use faith leaders as guides for Philadelphians wading through and seeking to strengthen race relations.
Yesterday, at Prince of Peace Baptist Church in North Philadelphia, NewCORE launched We Need to Talk, a series of neighborhood sessions where African Americans can examine their experiences with race in intimate dialogue with neighbors and strangers. The group laid a framework for this series last month, when Mayor Michael A. Nutter and a host of other prominent African Americans offered intimate glimpses through their lens of race and become unofficial ambassadors for the movement.
The talks are designed to explore issues of pain, challenges and hopes in a neutral space, without the pressure of the latest news cycle pressing buttons and pressure points.
That good intention fell aside somewhat in the wake of the Ferguson decision, though, when a mostly white grand jury opted not to indict a white police officer who killed an unarmed black teenager in the St. Louis suburb.
Officer Darren Wilson claimed Michael Brown Jr. had attacked him and that he feared for his life; some witness accounts said Brown had his hands up and was shot anyway.
The chain of ensuing events, from leaving the teenager's bleeding body in the street uncovered for hours to the reaction by police officials in the early days of the summer shooting sparked unrest in Ferguson and solidarity protests across the United States, including in Philadelphia, before and after the grand jury decision.
The officer since has resigned and President Obama just created a task force to delve into the persistent issue of mistrust between area police and communities of color, as well as the increased militarization of police departments. Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles H. Ramsey will serve as co-lead of that task force.
Images of officers in Missouri in full-on battle gear and weaponry ignited widespread condemnation, foreign and domestic.
More than anything, Ferguson reignited urgent questions about racial perceptions and realities, in some instances creating bright lines that seem intractable. NewCORE seeks to play a role in easing people toward greater understanding, with an eye to the long view on race and intergroup harmony.
Still, engaging any conversation about race, regardless of the participants, can be a tricky enterprise, which is why NewCORE organizers want to cultivate organic, thoughtful and personal exchanges.
Rather than big summits and television cameras, they're opting to spur intimate "storytelling table conversation," said the Rev. Steven Lawrence, a minister at White Rock Baptist Church and a leader in the NewCORE movement.
We Need to Talk will pick back up Wednesday, Dec. 10, at Caanan Baptist Church in Northwest Philadelphia, with the series continuing across the city through December 17. Attendees are to center their discussions on personal experiences with pain, challenge and hope as they relate to race relations.
"We want the conversations in each location to be vital and relevant for those neighbors, so we expect there will be a great variety of topics discussed," Lawrence said.
That has been the case since he and other faith leaders responded to came shortly after the inspiring 2008 address by then-candidate Barack Obama, A More Perfect Union. In the heady days after the frank and critically acclaimed treatise on the persistent American dilemma of race, the mayor challenged local leaders to keep the energy alive by establishing safe spaces for open, honest dialogue.
While this latest series is geared toward African Americans, the work of NewCORE typically has had wide and diverse reach, having held events at the National Museum of American Jewish History and a mosque in Villanova, as examples.
Rather than try to engineer outcomes, NewCORE remains focused on starting and cultivating safe conversations.
"We have found that people are tired of settings based on talking, but not listening," Lawrence said. "People are hungering for sincere conversation. Once that happens, people want more.
"Ongoing conversation is a great way to discover what a community can do together. We want to encourage the conversation."
