2 Forward Looking Statements No stock exchange, securities commission or other regulatory authority has approved or disapproved the information contained on this presentation. This presentation contains "forward-looking information" concerning Integra Gold Corp. s ( Integra or the Company ) future financial or operating performance and other statements that express management's expectations or estimates of future developments, circumstances or results. Generally, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as seeks, "believes", "anticipates", "plans", continues, "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "expects", "forecasts", "intends", projects, predicts, proposes, "potential", targets and variations of such words and phrases, or by statements that certain actions, events or results "may", "will", "could", "would", should or "might" "be taken", "occur" or "be achieved". Forward-looking statements included in this presentation include statements regarding potential mineralization and mineral resources, the proposed mining scenario for the Lamaque Gold Project, including information with respect to the supporting infrastructure, the potential life of mine, rates of employment and the effects of steps taken to mitigate local impacts and the expected completion dates of exploration and drilling, exploration results, estimated and future exploration and administration expenditures, the completion of scoping studies, preliminary economic assessment, pre-feasibility or feasibility studies, and future plans and objectives of Integra. While all forward-looking statements involve various risks and uncertainties, these statements are based on certain assumptions that management of Integra believes are reasonable, including that it will be able to obtain financing and on reasonable terms, that its current exploration and other objectives can be achieved, that its exploration and other activities will proceed as expected, that its community and environmental impact procedures will work as anticipated, that general business and economic conditions will not change in a material adverse manner, that Integra will not experience any material accident, labour dispute or failure or shortage of equipment, and that all necessary government approvals for its planned exploration and potential development activities will be obtained in a timely manner and on acceptable terms. There can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Integra s expectations include, among others, the actual results of current exploration activities being different than those anticipated by Integra, changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined, changes in estimated mineral resources, future prices of metals, increased costs of labor, equipment or materials, availability of equipment, failure of equipment to operate as anticipated, accidents, effects of weather and other natural phenomena, risks related to community relations and activities of stakeholders, and delays in obtaining governmental approvals or financing. Although Integra has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Integra does not intend, and expressly disclaims any intention or obligation to, update or revise any forward-looking information or statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

4 Silica and Québec In June 2014, Spanish based Grupo FerroAtlantica, one of the largest silicon metal producers in the World, announced plans for a $382 million silicon metal plan in Port-Cartier, QC. The Port-Cartier Plant will be operational in 2017 and produce 100,000 tons of silicon metal annually The Silicon Metal Market Outlook Report suggests growing demand in the silicon market. "Recent price gains can mainly be attributed to tightening supply due to low current levels of production in Brazil and China, but increasing demand will sustain these gains and support a further rise in silicon prices through to /3/2014
5 Silica Sources Silica Silica (SiO2) is highly used and plays an important role in industrial applications Quartz is a very common and abundant mineral in the earth s crust, however, high purity silica deposits of > 99% SiO2 are very rare Sources of Silica For industrial uses, silica can be derived from a number of sources: sandstones or unconsolidated sands, quartz from veins, pegmatite related quartz, and quartzites End uses of silica products (Source: High Purity Quartz (2014), Solar Silicon Resources Group).

16 Radio Hill Iron Ore Project, Ontario
17 Access to Transportation In 1964, the Radio Hill Project was preparing for full production only to be stopped by low iron ore prices. Located on the CN Mainline track system with a rail roadbed to the site already in place, iron ore could be efficiently transported to a variety of major processing hubs.
18 Extensive drilling has been carried out on the project, including 140 Drill Holes into anomalies at Radio Hill The potential for resources expansion exists at the 12 km long Nat River Formation. To date, only 6 drill holes have been completed on this formation Airborne Geophysics Magnetic-VTEM survey 742 line km and covered 50 km 2 with a line spacing of 75 m Geotech, 2008
19 The Radio Hill deposit provides a unique situation in that it has already been tested through to the feasibility stage. The accompanying chart is from the feasibility studied conducted in 1965 by FENCO showing positive values allowing for the commercial production of iron ore pellets. Concentrate percentages above 65% are generally viewed very positively. The table also shows low values for deleterious elements such as phosphate and manganese, metals also appear very low. Historical data presented here is for information purposes only. The compilation of this data occurred before the implementation of National Instrument A qualified person has not done sufficient work to date to determine the validity of these historic results and therefore these results should not be relied upon Magnetic E-type Concentrate (%) 1960s Bulk Sample Product Pellets from E- type Conc.

I have written the following article as a guest post on the Baby Sign Language blog.
It is written from the point of view of a parent searching for an inclusive childminder. However, I thought it might be of interest to childminders who are considering how they might offer an inclusive provision for children with hearing disabilities.
Choosing a childminder
Hello! My name is Sarah Neville. I have been working as a registered childminder for the last 17 years (currently graded outstanding by Ofsted)... and in a past life I qualified as an Educational Audiologist. I am delighted to be asked to write a guest post for Baby Sign Language blog.
How do you choose a childminder for your child? It is a hard enough question when your child has normal hearing, but when s/he is born with a hearing impairment or is deaf it can be a much harder question to answer. All parents feel torn when they make the choice to go back to work – they know that financially or to further their career it is the right decision but they also worry.
Parental guilt is normal! Only parents know their child well enough to understand every nuance of their body language and to recognise all their attempts at communication. However, parents can find a childminder who is ideally placed to care for their child... they might just need to visit a few different ones first and see who is out there with vacancies.
Your future childminder must be interested in you and your child. At the initial interview and throughout your time with the childminder s/he should ask you lots of questions about your child's needs, including how communication with your child is best achieved. S/he should also be happy to access alternative communication methods so that s/he can understand what your child is asking for... including attending courses and learning your child's sign language.
Some years ago I put together an illustrated book called 'My favourite things' for a child who suffered from regular bouts of glue ear. It helped her to ask me for drinks, toys etc and allowed me to ensure her essential care needs were met when she was feeling under the weather with sore ears or not confident enough to speak to me.
Other things to check for in your future childminder's house include hard surfaces so sound bounces, a calm quiet atmosphere (we know that most children have tantrums, but watch how the childminder deals with them), good lighting so your child can see clearly to develop lip reading skills and lots of outings through the week so your child is socialised with others.
You must feel confident and comfortable with your future childminder and this will be built up through a series of meetings including settling-in sessions for your child. Always ask about settling-in at the interview stage – you should be offered at least one session of a couple of hours so the childminder and your child can get to know each other while you hopefully spend some special time doing something just for you. If you need more sessions – ask for them!
Parents can help childminders to have the best possible relationship with their child... they can share information about their child's home life... they can pay on time and be prompt... they can let their childminder know when their child has said or done something new... they can keep their childminder updated about medical and other appointments... they can involve their childminder in their child's life.
If you have any concerns about choosing a childminder which I have not covered, please feel free to contact me via my website.

Baltimore residents know they can phone the city's 311 call center to request alley cleanings, complain about noisy neighbors or inquire about a missed trash pickup. But what they might not know is that the employees who answer the telephone are garbed in matching attire paid for by taxpayers.
Last week, the city's Board of Estimates, its spending board, approved $24,000 to buy new uniforms for call center employees. The money will pay for polo shirts, slacks and sweaters or hooded sweat shirts for about 80 workers, officials said.
Workers are required to wear uniforms to "promote professionalism and consistency," Lisa Allen, the call center manager, wrote in an e-mail. "Baltimore is considered the flagship of 311 government call centers, therefore it is very important that we portray a professional appearance," she said, adding that visiting officials from other areas and even foreign dignitaries often tour the call center.

Last time I did Weekly Wishes, my goal was to have a fun week by accomplishing these things!
Make Veronica Mars t-shirts. Check. P.S. - greatest movie ever. They added more theaters so you should check it out!
Finish binge-watching the show. Almost check. We had to do some recap in the car on the way to DC, but we will eventually finish.
Make O-balls for the pot luck! Check! They were a hit, of course.
Do some more journaling. Oh, oops. I must have forgotten about this one.
This week I've got some highs and lows (did you ever do that in youth group or anything, where you talked about the good things and the not-so-good?)... Lows being that I have to go to the dentist TWICE and highs being that an old friend is coming to visit with her baby, who has yet to meet his Aunt Cat! I'm so excited to see her and him!
Get ready for my friend's arrival. I may have to do some cleaning... So that's what I'm doing after I post this!
Make a start to my MapMyRun goals. I made two - one for distance and one for number of workouts! I want to stay motivated in my Just Dance kick, and I want Lilo to get more walks!
Finish a book. I pre-ordered the new Veronica Mars book (yeah, I'm obsessed) but I've been really getting into my current book, so I want to try to finish it so I can focus on Veronica! I also want to get a little further into this book I'm reading about personal finance. It's super interesting and helpful, but not exactly a thriller.
Post-dentist, get all my paperwork in. Once I go this week, I am D-O-N-E with my medical stuff! All of it! (Assuming there aren't issues and whatnot) So I just need to upload it all and I will be carefree! (You know, sort of.)
Lately I'm not as present on the blog as I have been, but I am always Instagramming! So if you ever miss me, just check that out and it will be like we're hanging out again! :)
Don't forget to link up with Melyssa!

Anyone who has heard of or has followed the courageous work of Ayaan Hirsi Ali will know that her fight for women's rights and her criticism of religion in general, and Islam in particular, go hand in hand. For Brandeis University to claim that it was "not aware" of her stance against religion and Islam is unbelievably ignorant, at best, and an outright lie born out of cowardice, at worst.
The advocates of religious privilege, as well as the ultra left liberal appeasers, have thrown free speech under the bus in favor of cultural relativism. If the school board was in fact as ignorant (and incompetent) as they claim, then they at least should have done a little bit of research on her to make sure she wasn't the apparently unsavory candidate they now think she is. They could have saved themselves a whole lot of embarrassment if they had simply never offered the honorary doctorate in the first place.
But they didn't. And now they should suffer for it.

With the sun now fully behind Thaur's ancient woods, the trails become even darker, with most of the way ahead pitch black. In the last hour, the Ashen Rains have grown heavier.
Just as the acolytes have given up hope of reaching shelter, they come across the outskirts of Afterlife. Strangely no lights are visible within the walled village.
Hesitantly, the acolytes enter the town and look around. At first, Afterlife appears to be long abandoned, with many of the town's buildings empty and overgrown. After a more thorough investigation, the party finds a scattering of remains. Although some are too old or rotten to determine when or how they died, those found inside are obvious victims of violent struggle and bloodshed. Furthermore, Afterlife's main gates have been torn from their hinges.
Uneasy, but nonetheless requiring shelter, the acolytes find a large, two-story building with a wrap-around balcony. Two sets of stairs proceed up to the second floor. Entering the building, they find that it appears to be some sort of inn. Talius and Taeric attempt to start a fire, but all of the available materials are too damp to catch. Even Ishmael's psychic fire is unsuccessful.
As such, the party goes searching for fuel sources.
Inside the remnants of a small general store, they locate some thickened, low-grade promethieum.
The acolytes close the inn's top floor from the elements and attempt to dry out.
While the others warm up, Talius scans for any vox signals. Searching for some signs of life, he finds only static.
As the acolytes settle in for the night, a thick fog blankets the village. The group's meagre lighting penetrates only a few feet out from the mouldy windows and into the darkness outside.
With some of the acolytes on the edge of sleep, the party begins to hear the faint sounds of a bell ringing, far in the distance. The sound is deep and rich, even miles away, but it tugs at their minds. The sound makes the party uneasy, almost physically unwell. They wonder who could be sounding it so far away – so deep into Thaur's wilderness.
Ishamael especially feels some sort of presence, but before he can locate it with his mind, he's overwhelmed by a foul stench. The air chills around the acolytes, frosting their breaths. The bell's ringing grows loud, pounding its way into their skulls.
At the vox set, Talius continues scanning through the channels, believing that the fog may be preceding some kind of attack. Slowly, countless channels of static turn to agonizing screaming. Strangely, none of the rest of the party seems to notice.
Preparing for the worst, the acolytes form a plan. With the group's two Mournful Guard companions, Taeric runs back to the general store, finding a series of saws and axes with which to destroy the inn's stair cases. Meanwhile, Nelix rigs tripwires on the building's entryways.
As quickly as possible, they limit all access to the second floor. They draw their weapons and prepare to face whatever enemy may come.
After a few tense minutes, the bell simply stops, leaving a lingering, eerie silence and the sound of distant rain.
The fog dissipates.
Thankfully, the rest of the night passes uneventfully.
As the next morning comes, the acolytes realize that there's no escaping the black rains. The storm is constant and unyielding. The acolytes debate waiting until evening, but they have no choice but to press on. This time, however, they fashion a crude covering for their wagon.
The party continues down more of Thaur's lonely and overgrown trails – each one looking like the previous – tangled and dark. But now, large puddles and pools have begun to form. The small paths and old roads are quickly overtaken by thick, rich mud.
After a few hours of gruelling travel, the rains seem to let up a little. Still, they have taken their toll.
The acolytes' carriage passes through what was perhaps once a small clearing or pasture – now a swamp. Thankfully, the main trail is raised slightly above the surrounding land. Even in the worst sections, the water is no more than thigh deep.
As they begin to pass through, the acolytes feel the temperature rapidly cooling again. Soon another thick fog envelops all.
In the utterly still air, another bell rings out. It's distant, but most of the acolytes are convinced that it is sounding from numerous directions simultaneously.
Again, Ishamael feels its touch the strongest and is immediately overcome with the need to vomit. He empties the contents of his stomach on the wet grass below the carriage. In the psyker's small pile of rejected stomach contents, he makes out the faintest movement – maggots – dozens of maggots squirming and writhing.
Now, for even those without the psyker's gift, the noise from the bell builds to a nauseating barrage.
In a split second, the tall grasses and shrubbery around the party turns black and decays, shrivelling to the ground. A smell that can only be described as rotting meat assaults their senses.
Talius takes charge. Pushing the carriage's driver aside, he and Taeric put the wagon's large equines to flight. As fast as the beasts will move, the carriage begins its escape from the swamp.
Then, the bell becomes a shrill keening and ghostly apparitions fill the air.
Terrifying, whirling apparitions whip around the fleeing group like a spectral hurricane.
Through the dense fog and the terrifying, bewildering display around them, the party catches glimpses of dozens, if not hundreds of figures shambling forth from the surrounding forests.
Taeric instinctively seizes his lasgun and begins firing at the shambling masses.
A moment later, a single bolt of purple-white lightning slams into the ground beside the carriage with a monumental crack.
With it, the swirling menace and figures are gone.
The fog has lifted instantaneously, replaced with darkness and pounding rain.
Talius refuses to slow the carriage, putting as much distance as possible behind them.
As such, the party finds find the outskirts of Hope's End within a half day.
The village itself is a gated hamlet found in a decently sized clearing. Surrounded by a large palisade wall made from nearby trees, the village looks well defended.
Firelight and torchlight are visible from within, casting outlines of the sentries patrolling atop the walls. Tracks leading to the front gate look recent.
There's some kind of commotion going on inside the walls – with a rabble, discussion, or argument filling the air.
The party debates the merits of various approaches – be it stealth, direct violence, or a more subtle method. Ultimately they decide to hide their armour and proceed in through the front gates.
From atop the wall, the sentries see them approach. After a brief conversation, they convince the men that they have come from a far away Thaurian settlement.
Allowed inside, they find the village in a fairly good state of repair. There's a few dozen houses, a few merchant stalls, a stable, and even covered storage yards filled with various crates, barrels and animal feed. Furthermore, the sentries are dressed in certain pieces of Mournful Guard armour. Still, the party is unsure of their allegiance.
At the centre of town, they spot where all the village's commotion is coming from – a group of locals wielding torches have surrounded a home. The mob yells about some kind of pestilence and that those inhabiting the house have brought the dead down upon them all. The mob appears to be getting unruly, possibly on the edge of violence.
The acolytes split up, dispersing into the crowd as a few of their companions store the carriage and horses.
Moving deeper into the mob, the acolytes spot a group walking in quickly from the village centre – three Mournful Guard – one clearly in charge. The leader stands a good few inches above his comrades. With closely cropped hair and scarred face, it's plain to see that his life has not been an easy one.
As this new group approaches the mob, the unruly villagers quiet down and make room.
The leader appears to calm the masses – dispelling the claims of pestilence as simple rumours. The supposed Mournful Guard prepare to enter the home.
Nelix offers his medicae services, but the Guard ask him to keep his distance.
The small group emerges a few minutes later. The Mournful Guard discuss amongst themselves for a short while before their leader addresses the crowds again. He claims that the rumours are false, and asks the gathering to disperse.
Thankfully, they listen – and slowly depart.
Breathing a sigh of relief, the leader of the Mournful Guard collects himself. Then, he approaches Nelix again.
As such, some of the other acolytes make themselves known.
It's clear that the leader has already recognized them as outsiders.
The leader introduces himself as Talmon Corren, Chief Warden of the Mournful Guard. Seemingly believing the acolytes' cover story, he invites them back to his station house to hear of their journey.
As they go to leave, Corren talks to his subordinates again, telling them to burn the house down and exile the sick. The orders don't faze him the slightest.
Corren's station house is a simple building of wooden timber construction. Wrought iron bars and bone ornamentation decorate the windows and doors. Entering, the Mourful Guard store their gear and set a pot of recaf upon their wood-burning hearth.
The acolytes recount false details of their journey before slowing prying into Hope's End.
Corren explains that a pestilence plagues the land – just as much as the dead. No one is sure of the cause, but it's deadly.
Furthermore, Corren details Hope's End's fight against the dead – explaining that what the acolytes have heard is true. Hope's End is winning their fight, but barely. Corren and his Mournful Guard burn as many of the creatures as they can, but every week their numbers continue to grow. Supposedly, the Ashen Rains are only making it worse, as every day, more and more bodies wash to the surface – swelling the dead's numbers.
The situation has grown truly dire, as Thaur's meagre trade routes are now undefendable and its roads too dangerous for scouts or dispatch riders.
When the acolytes inquires about the dead's origins, Corren explains how some greater force drives them. He doesn't know their source, but he describes where he saw them first – the Great Ossuaria, around when the first orbital bombardments fell a decade ago.
He informed the Eulogus Askelline in the days afterwards, but none would listen. As a result of Corren's perceived insanity, he was silenced and exiled.
The dead did not rise in force until many years later.
Many Thaurians believed it to be an omen – a curse finally coming to claim these lands. Others lost their minds and even began worshipping the risen dead – seeing it as the Emperor's rebirth – a gift for their decades of service and faithful vigilance over their interred charges. Many retreated off into the dark woods to follow these foul beliefs.
The sane, like Corren, broke away from the incredulous Eulogus Askelline and retreated behind independent, walled communities.
However, now almost all has been claimed by darkness.
Corren explains that Hope's Ends neighbours to the east and west are gone – only a few places such Hope's End and the Adepta Sororitas Monestary at Maraic hold out – but Corren doesn't know how they currently fare. As a result, those in Hope's End dare not venture out, especially to the lands around the forsaken Ossuaria.
Explaining the unlikelihood of survival on their journey from distant lands, Corren reveals that he knows that the acolytes aren't who they say they are.
Ishamael and the others concede their charade, identifying themselves as members of the Inquisition rather than native Thaurians.
Corren is surprised that the Inquisition has actually returned, even though he reveals that it was he who finally convinced Calziel and the Eulogus to call for aid.
Confused, the acolytes inquire about how that could be so – especially considering Lord Calziel's testimony about Corren's corruption, heresy, and betrayal.
Corren states that it was Calziel who exiled him and his men originally and that the Eulogus Lord believes that Thaur and proper Imperial governance can still exist as it once did.
Corren claims that Calziel's rumours were nothing but desperate attempts to have Hope's End silenced forever, lest others know that Thaurians' best chances at survival are to be found without the Eulogus.
The acolytes debate Corren's allegiances and pry deeper into his story. Nonetheless, the Warden claims loyalty to the Emperor.
As the acolytes discuss how to proceed, a distant bell begins to sound.

My son had his 8th birthday party over the weekend. He wanted a Pokemon/Soccer party, so I made the cupcakes (in soccer ball wrappers and decorated them as Poke-balls (at least that's what I call them…what are those things called?!?)
The little drawstring bags were kind of a last-minute decision and I quickly whipped up the Pokemon themed bags to put their party gifts (a pack of Pokemon cards) in.
I, for one, am all Pokied out, but I think the boys really loved the party so I guess it was worth it 🙂

Chloroplast phylogeography of threatened aquatic Oxalis (Oxalidaceae): Significant inter-population structure, divergent haplotypes and conservation implications
The aquatic lineage consisting of the sister taxa Oxalis dines and O. disticha is confined to a few small vernal pools in the semi-arid Greater Cape Floristic Region of South Africa. All known populations are at risk of extinction due to anthropogenically induced disturbance. To identify priority sites for focused conservation management, the chloroplast intergenic spacer regions psbA-trnH and trnS-trnG were used to determine population structure and genetic diversity in this lineage across its distribution range. Population viability was assessed using flower morph ratios as surrogate for sexual health. Fourteen and four haplotypes were identified from O. disticha and O. dines populations, respectively. Analyses of Molecular Variance indicated an extremely high level of interpopulation differentiation across the entire aquatic lineage as well as within O. disticha and O. dines. Fifty percent of the eighteen haplotypes were confined to single pools, and 84% of populations contained only a single haplotype, even though pool interspacing distance for O. disticha was often less than 5 km. Almost half of O. disticha haplotype diversity was restricted to very small populations. Two O. dines haplotypes were restricted to small populations, with one of these presenting a divergent haplotype sister to the remainder of the aquatic lineage. Flower morph frequency ratio analyses suggested that most populations were reproductively healthy. Low haplotypic diversity within local populations and differentiation between populations are consistent with very low seed-level gene flow and sporadic founder effects. Conservation efforts should be focussed on preserving as many pools as possible with small, genetically distinct populations representing a main concern. © 2012 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.

After the Trump election victory, I was patting myself on the back. After all, in my end-of-the-year predictions last December, I told you that whichever candidate carried the state of Ohio would be elected President. Trump not only won Ohio, he won it by 454,983 votes or 8.6 points.
All the other experts were scratching their heads wondering what went wrong. The Democrats thought Clinton had the election in the bag. Why didn't we get more middle class votes they asked themselves? Why didn't black people and Hispanics vote democratic? Why did we lose the blue collar workers votes? What did we fail to do?
Over in the Republican camp, the party chiefs were recognizing that there were three parties now — the Democratic Party, the Republican Party and the Trump Party. Trump had defied Republican leadership and still won.
The other experts were puzzled too — the press and the poll takers. They had no idea that a big upset was about to happen and they couldn't believe how wrong they had been in their observations and predictions.
As I said, I had been patting myself on the back. Then, one day the following week when I was out in the yard leaning on my rake, our neighbor, Deb, who was out walking her beautiful dog, came over and then, hands on hips, challenged me.
She said, "I thought you predicted that no candidate whose wife had gorgeous legs could ever be elected to the White House. And Melania Trump has gorgeous legs, in case you hadn't noticed."
I quickly shifted the blame. In an article titled "The Curse of Gorgeous Legs," written after Trump had been selected as the candidate at the Republican convention in July, I quoted my wife, Eartha, on the history of good and bad legs in the White House.
She said, "No president's wife in my lifetime has ever had decent legs."
Then, one at a time, she ticked off examples. She was cruel in her descriptions:
Jackie Kennedy: "Big shin bones, shapeless legs, size 10½ shoes."
Lady Bird Johnson: "Legs the shape of Vietnam with permanent veins running along the Ho Chi Min Trail."
Pat Nixon: "Sticks."
Betty Ford: "Dull, dull, dull."
Rosalynn Carter: "Missionary legs."
Barbara Bush: "Pool table legs."
Hillary Clinton: "Pantsuit legs."
Laura Bush: "Librarian legs."
Michelle Obama: "OK, but nothing compared to Cindy McCain and Sarah Palin in 2008, and even Anne Romney in 2012 — all too shapely for White House legs."
She concluded that recent history guarantees that Donald Trump and Melania (the trophy wife with possibly the best legs in the world) would never live in the White House. And she underlined the observations by saying "and you can quote me."
So I did quote her, but, as I said, I don't take the blame for a woman's point of view. But I felt our neighbor Deb had put me on the spot, so I approached Eartha and confronted her about her over-confidant blunders.
"What were you thinking?" I shrieked.
She held her ground. She stood up straight, squared her shoulders, looked me in the eye and answered like an expert: "Look, mister, you were happy to take credit when my unique observations amused your readers, but now you want to saw off the limb I seem to be out on. Let me tell you this: there was no way I could have known there would be a tape of Trump bragging about how he groped women.
Who could have predicted that? That turned everything upside down. The result of that tape was that somehow perversely it appealed to the blue collar workers in the Rust Belt, Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana, Pennsylvania and especially Ohio, and they decided they wanted gorgeous legs in the White House for a change. They voted against four years of Hillary Clinton wearing pantsuits. The tape, that should have cost Trump the election, won it for him."
Again, the woman's point of view.

Five hospitals in Lima, Callao and Cajamarca, have reported shortage of HIV medicine. According to a report, hospitals with problems of shortage and rationing are Daniel Alcides Carrión del Callao, Hospital Regional de Cajamarca, María Auxiliadora, Dos de Mayo and Arzobispo Loayza in Lima.
Those affected have denounced that their treatment schemes have been randomly changed, which is harmful for their health. Furthermore, there are various allegations regarding the absence of reagents for viral load testing, which are used to measure the progression of the virus in the body of a person with HIV. It should be noted that in Peru, there are approximately 27,000 people with HIV receiving antiretroviral treatment.
The most critical issue was the communiqué of Percy Minaya, Deputy Minister of Health, who said that the delivery of Tenofovir should be up to 15 days (normal delivery is every 3 months). He also prohibits prescribing the same medicine for new users of the TARGA program (great active antiretroviral treatment in Spanish).
"They are giving us Tenofovir only for 5 days and we are at risk of getting fired, since we have to ask for permission in our works. We don't have money for transportation, and all that affects our health, because many of us prefer to stop taking the medicines", said a patient of the Loayza Hospital.
"It is outrageous to know that due to administrative reasons they put at risk the lives of hundreds of people with HIV who must take their medication without any interruption", said Mr. Castillo.
He warned that the Ministry of Health, should notify their purchase schedule to anticipate typical problems in the bidding process and also have a stock of at least 6 months to avoid shortages.
To date, a total of 23 supported and accredited complaints have been filled due to the lack of Nevirapine and Tenofovir. In addition, more than 28 complaints due to the fractionated delivery of HIV medication have been also reported.

I've been doing some research on Cass Gilbert lately. He was a fabulous architect, responsible for a number of wonderful buildings including the Minnesota State Capitol, the US Supreme Court Building, and the Woolworth Building in New York.
However, I've been intrigued by story of his son, who worked in his father's office and operated it after his father's death. Cass Gilbert, Jr. seemed to live in the shadow of his father. The most notable works that are attributed to him are his father's projects he brought to completion after Cass, Sr. died in 1934.
In the late 1940s, Cass Jr. and his wife were driving in Connecticut when he ran into a haywagon full of young adults, sending about 20 of them to the hospital. He was convicted of drunk driving, given a steep fine, and sentenced to a year in jail.
Cass Gilbert, Jr. had few projects after that, and most, if not all, that he did have related to his father's work. When he died, there was little note of it in the papers.
Cass Jr.'s son, Cass Gilbert III, a minister, died this year in Bennington, VT. Between these pieces, I think there must be a fascinating, and perhaps tragic, life story.

Got Milkweed?
But there are some things we can do. Why not create a monarch waystation at your home, business, or school? It can be as large or small as you like. You need to plant milkweed that are native to your area, so below I have listed a few for your region.
Northeast: common milkweed, swamp milkweed, butterfly milkweed, poke milkweed
South Central: antelope horn milkweed, green antelope horn milkweed, zizotes milkweed
Southeast: aquatic milkweed, white milkweed, butterfly milkweed
West: showy milkweed, antelope horn milkweed (only in NV AZ NM CO ID KS, and OK)
Without milkweeds in the spring and summer,which provide breeding areas, the popuation cannot be maintained. Without nectar from flowers, they cannot make the long migration to Mexico each fall.
You can register your waystation and even purchase a plaque identify your garden as an official Monarch Waystation.

It was like a movie scene as 15 policemen, in a command-like fashion, invaded the official residence of Chief Tony Okocha, the Chief of Staff to Rivers State Governor Chibuike Amaechi, to effect the withdrawal of his security men.
They claimed to be acting on the orders of Police Commissioner Mbu Joseph Mbu.
Mbu and the state government have been at loggerheads as a result of which even the national assembly has authorised Inspector General of police Mohammed Abubakar to redeploy him. But he has declined.
The two policemen attached to Okocha's residence opposite the Rivers State Government House were withdrawn. The invading policemen created a scene in the process, claiming they were under instruction to also withdrawn policemen on escort and guard duties with Okocha and the Secretary to the Rivers State Government (SSG), George Feyii.
It was learnt that when the 15 policemen got to Okocha's official residence, they kept banging the gate, holding everybody in the expansive premises hostage, in a war-like situation.
The private security men and the two policemen being withdrawn initially thought they were to be killed and refused the invading policemen access to the building.
In the confusion, the security personnel on guard duty at Okocha's official residence moved to a safe point in the compound, which made it impossible for the main gate to be immediately opened.
Okocha said last night: "The Special Protection Unit (SPU) of the Nigeria Police in Rivers State assigned some policemen to my official residence and for escort, but Mbu has withdrawn them and those with the SSG. We are left with only one orderly each.
"No reason was given for the withdrawal of the policemen. Before the withdrawal, I had three policemen on escort duty and two policemen at my official residence. The two policemen alternated day and night.
"My life is in danger. If anything goes wrong, Mbu should be held responsible. He does not pick my calls.
"There was pandemonium when the invading policemen got to my official residence and they held everybody to ransom. One of the private security men later opened the gate."
The police signal of 9:55 am of October 24, 2013 (yesterday), from the SPU, which was obtained by The Nation, had as reference number: CB/4001/B/Dept/SPU/Base 6 Rivers/Vol 1/149.
Copies of the signal were sent to the Assistant Inspector-General of Police (AIG), Zone 6, Calabar; Compol, SPU; SSQ, Abuja and the Compol B Ops.
The signal, titled: Orders and Directives, read in part: "You are directed to withdrawal all Special Protection Unit personnel posted on escort /guard duties attached to the Secretary to the Rivers State Government and the Chief of Staff, Government House, Port Harcourt, leaving only an orderly each, with immediate effect. Ensure strict compliance please."
No name was indicated on the signal, which bore "SPU Base 6, Port Harcourt."
Rivers Police Spokesman Ahmad Muhammad was not available for comment.

When it comes to catching up on our daily slumber, the last thing we want to worry about late at night is washing our face -- unfortunately, it's a must.
If you rather break out every other day and wake up with an extremely oily t-zone, so be it. For those who prefer clean, clear skin, small pores and a natural glow then let's focus all of our attention on the correct way to clean and prep your face before bed with these quick, easy steps below.
Step #1: If you wear makeup, you already know it's a written rule that you must always wash off your makeup at night.
Whether you use makeup remover or makeup removal wipes, make sure you never skip this step. But wait, this is just the beginning.
Step #2: After removing your makeup, it's officially time to cleanse your face.
Choose a facial cleanser that best fits you depending on your skin type. Instead of using your hands to wash your face, use a white washcloth. Using your hands can be unsanitary opposed to using a washcloth that doesn't contain dye (shout out to my dermatologist for the quick tip).
Step #3: Follow up your cleansing routine with a toner.
A toner works to regulate your skins pH level and reduce the size of your pores. There are several toners out there, make sure you choose the right toner for you.
Step #4: After toning comes moisturizing your face.
Moisturizing is always a must, no matter what your skin type may be. Moisturizing is almost like adding the icing on the cake. Without the icing, it's simply not complete.
Step #5: Make sure you always sleep on clean pillow cases.
Change your bed sheets and pillow cases every so often to prevent buildup and bacteria from causing breakouts to your face.

Love My Spot, Love MeLeave a comment Standard
My favorite spot in my house…
Actually, this is the view from my favorite spot in the house, my sofa. I no longer own a television (Oh sure, I watch plenty of Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime).
To my right, is my favorite cup and beverage.
Here is my other favorite spot — because of the twinkle lights. I keep them on for the hour I sit in bed writing in my journal.
This is another spot I enjoy. The cottage kitchen is too small for a dishwasher. This is my view while I have my hands in soapy water, in naught but a house frock.
Really, I can talk about the stupidest things for hours… but, come on, leap onto the bandwagon and tell me about a favorite spot in your house. Don't forget a photo.

A COLORFUL 4THLeave a comment Standard
Taking a break for a walk. Someday I'm going to post photos of all the gates in the neighborhood. There are so many and they're all interesting. But not today. I'll start with this one, however:
I took this on the 4th of July and I think it's appropriate even now. But here is more color for you:
I call it the flower tunnel — the tunnel of Love right down the street from me.
This neighbor has his Christmas light already lit up. Christmas in July.
Red, white, and… no blue.
Here's another gate… and palm fronds.
This is my favorite photo. Love the colors on white.
Hope you're having a colorful day as well!

Ready for a morning walk, coffee in hand — and in my case a dog leash and a camera in hand.
I always end up taking many more pictures than I need because Daisy's ready to move just as I take a shot.
I love the nooks and crannies of landscaping. What's behind this garden gate? Who knows! A flower garden, a fairy garden, a pit bull…?
This is where you should drink your coffee.
This is one of my favorite houses on the block.
And this one is across the street from it. It's much smaller but that doesn't diminish it's lovely-ness.
This Siamese is almost lost in the dark before dawn. He'd probably like to keep it that way too.
Lovely welcoming entry.
Welcome to the jungle. This photo doesn't really do this yard justice. I'll have to walk over there again and get you more flavor.
Love the color!
And more color.
