It is prudent to power flush a heating system immediately before fitting a new boiler
to an existing system to prevent possible future problems.Many systems are found to
contain corrosion and sludge, even if no flow problems have yet shown themselves.
Existing debris is often mobilised by alterations to the system/piping and the increased efficiency
of the new boiler, and may then accumulate in the boiler heat exchanger, causing noisy operation,
reduced efficiency and, in extreme circumstances, failure of the boiler. The high efficiency and
compactness of modern boilers, developed to minimise fuel costs and pollution, means that they
are more susceptible to problems caused by debris in the system water.
The CLEARFLOW power flushing process is a versatile, easy to use and highly effective method of flushing heating systems. By utilising CLEARFLOW system flushing pumps, heating systems can be purged of sludge, scale and corrosion deposits with minimal dismantling and disruption.
The CLEARFLOW power flushing pump is simply connected into the heating system, either across standard circulator pump couplings, across the tails of one radiator, or wherever most practicable. The powerful flow, combined with instantaneous flow reverser device, will dislodge and mobilise deposits and corrosion which resist traditional system cleaning methods.
Once the corrosion and sludge deposits have been loosened and mobilised, fresh clean water is forced through the heating system, pushing the contaminated water out through a full bore dump valve to waste. During the CLEARFLOW process, radiators are individually flushed, without removing or disconnecting them from the system, by directing the full output of the pump through each radiator separately.
At the end of the flushing process, the system contains fresh clean water and reinstatement of the system to normal operation takes only a few minutes.
System flushing will not remedy design or mechanical faults, which should be rectified, but in many cases it will cure the problems caused by these.
Power Flushing is a process by which heating systems are forcibly cleansed
using water at high velocity, but low pressure, so that no physical damage is
caused to the system.The process can be made even more effective with
the addition of powerful cleaning agents (CHEMICALS)
The objective is to restore systems with circulation and boiler noise problems
(caused by sludge and corrosion deposits) to optimum operation.Power flushing removes these deposits and the problems that they cause....

Bruno's Restaurant Review: Bruno's has seen more than its fair share of failed face-lifts. For a long time, it was better known for zebra-striped carpets and a weird Vegas-lite atmosphere than its cuisine. At one point, the restaurant side of the club turned out a $30 Italian-American prix-fixe menu fortified with all-you-can-drink house wine. Then, under the oversight of Broken Record alums Ryan Ostler and Katharine Zacher, dishes, not carpets, attracted customers with a taste for the duo's free-spirited approach to American comfort food. Now, the team has moved on, but Bruno's remains a storied bar and club, and plans to reinstate food at some point down the road.

So San Diego tickets are selling/have sold out. Despite clicking F5 until your key finger is bleeding (and that has actually happened to some people), it's proved too hard. But don't despair, Bleeding Cool is here to save you. And your Slave Leia costume. Ten ways you can still get into San Diego Comic Con 2011. Feel free to tweet this round to your similarly minded friends.
1) Wait. Even though you may find this unbelievable, some people with tickets won't want to go. So San Diego will refund the money and suddenly have spare tickets. Also San Diego Comic Con hold back one day passes until closer to the convention, and sell them at standard price, in order to beat the ticket touts. They will be limited but they will be available. Sit tight.
2) Find a ticket tout. Despite all sorts of measures against them, tickets will have been bought in blocks ready to sell on at outrageous prices. Often picked up by fans with too much money and no planning skills, or studios who suddenly decide they want thirty more people there trawling Artists Alley and the bars. The danger here is that this is not kosher and San Diego can refuse entry to those with tickets not in their name. And last year people turned up with fake tickets sold to them. Again, no entry. Dangerous and expensive.
3) Volunteer for Con. This is more like it. For a few hours work a day, not only will you gain free entrance to the convention, but you'll get an instant social network, enjoy the volunteer parties, boss people around and help out celebrities. I've done it myself, it's a wonderul experience and you'll make lifelong friends. Even if that means you'll miss the Green Lantern panel. So if you fancy escorting Matt Smith, or pushing Wookies out of the way, this is your opportunity. A perfect choice for starfucker or mini-Hitler alike. Or, you know, someone who just wants to be a part of it all. Yeah, sorry, this option is full up.
4) Volunteer for a Vendor. This is the best choice if you are young, female and potentially buxom, but to be truthful, anyone with hands will do. A few hours booth time a day helping out retailers, studios, publishers wearing a tight T-shirt and the con is yours. Again, you'll get an instant social network for the show and get access before the convention opens. But watch out, they may want you to pack up afterwards. And they frown on shoplifting.
5) Become a comics creator. You haven't got long. But if you draw a bit, or find someone who can, get your work online, fast. Send a few press releases out to easy sites like Newsarama and CBR. And bingo. Seriously, this works. This can really work.
6) Become a comics journalist. Possibly the easiest of the lot. Set up a blog. Write something outrageous and get other people to link to you. Run something about comics and breasts, that's the easiest way. Now you are media. Try for media accreditation. Or simply write for an existing website. Go to a panel, write what happens in panel down, upload it, and you are suddenly a comics journalist for a major site!
7) Just hang out. There's almost a secondary Comic Convention being created outside the show. Last year about 50,000 people who couldn;t get in, rocked up anyway and enjoyed the stalls, the zombies, the giveaways and the hotel lobbies. If it's creators you want to meet, why go to the convention at all? Save your money and spend it on $9 vodka and cokes in the Hyatt bar, Befriend the staff while you're at it and you'll become invaluable to drink-sozzled comics creators later in the night.
8) Get invited onto a panel. Seriously they give panels to all sorts of people, including prominent fans and their websites. I bet you can persuade one of them to invite you along as a guest commentator.
9) Go next year instead. Spend the money on the ones you love. And follow the con on Twitter. Seriously, you'll get a better idea of all the announcements. Just try and get someone at the show to buy you tickets for 2012…
10) Pack some heat.

Update: COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Volunteers dressed in Christmas hats and military uniforms are taking calls from children around the world who want to know when Santa will be coming.
NORAD Tracks Santa, based at Colorado's Peterson Air Force Base, says it uses infrared sensors from Rudolph's nose to determine Santa's location Monday and let callers know when they need to get to bed.
Canadian astronaut David Saint-Jacques tweeted that he is helping track Santa from the International Space Station.
Related: Follow Santa on NORAD's tracker
The military says the program isn't affected by the U.S. government shutdown since it is run by volunteers and funded by a previously approved defense budget.
The holiday tradition, now in its 63rd year, began after a child mistakenly called a Colorado command that monitored for signs of a nuclear attack, asking to speak to Santa.
The military says the NORAD Tracks Santa won't be affected by the government shutdown because it is run by volunteers Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado and is funded by the Department of Defense's budget that was approved earlier this year.
Now in its 63rd year, the Santa tracker became a Christmas Eve tradition after a mistaken phone call to the Continental Air Defense Command in Colorado Springs, Colorado, in 1955. CONAD, as it was known, had the serious job of monitoring a far-flung radar network for any sign of a nuclear attack on the United States.
When Col. Harry Shoup picked up the phone that day, he found himself talking not to a military general, but to a child who wanted to speak to Santa Claus. A Colorado Springs newspaper had run an ad inviting kids to call Santa but mistakenly listed the hotline number.
Shoup figured out what had happened and played along. The tradition has since mushroomed into an elaborate operation that attracts tens of thousands of calls every year.
"They're all really sweet, small voices," said Madison Hill, a volunteer who helped answer the phones in two previous years.
"I had a little girl tell me good night instead of goodbye," she said. "It's really sweet."
The North American Aerospace Defense Command — a joint U.S.-Canadian operation based in Colorado Springs, Colorado, that protects the skies over both countries — has taken over the Santa tracker since the tradition started. The military command center embraced and expanded the Santa-tracking mission and has been rewarded with a bounty of goodwill and good publicity.
Last year, NORAD Tracks Santa drew 126,000 phone calls, 18 million website hits, 1.8 million followers on Facebook and 179,000 more on Twitter.
It takes 160 phones to handle the calls that pour in. New volunteers get a playbook that briefs them on the questions kids might ask. Big screens on the walls show a Santa icon making blistering progress around the globe. U.S. and Canadian officers do live TV interviews from the phone rooms.
"It really gets you into the Christmas spirit," said Hill, a student at Mississippi State University who got involved through Air Force family members stationed in Colorado Springs.
"There are Christmas carols in the background, everyone's very friendly, happy to be there," she said.
One year, she took a call from a boy who began reading a very long Christmas list. "I remember having to cut him off after the 10th present or so," she said, explaining to him that she had to take calls from other children.
A girl told Hill she wanted to warn Santa not to bump into a bell hanging on her door. "I think she wanted Santa to be quiet and not wake her up," Hill said.
Sometimes the volunteers have to handle the unexpected. In 2012, a child from Newtown, Connecticut, asked if Santa could bring extra toys for families who lost children in the mass shooting that year at Sandy Hook Elementary.
"If I can get ahold of him, I'll try to get the message to him," replied the volunteer, Sara Berghoff.
NORAD's commander, Air Force Gen. Terrence J. O'Shaughnessy, will also take a turn answering the phones Monday.
"This is my first NORAD Tracks Santa," said O'Shaughnessy, who took command in May. "I'm really excited."
O'Shaughnessy was even asked about the program during a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing in April to confirm him as NORAD chief.
"I assume this committee can count on your commitment to continue that venerable tradition," Arkansas Republican Sen. Tom Cotton deadpanned.
"Yes sir, especially since my son Sam would want to see that as well," O'Shaughnessy replied.

President Donald Trump and Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis were on hand to start off the annual Army vs. Navy game.
Army and Navy met again Saturday afternoon in the neutral site of Philadelphia to play a football game between the two oldest branches of the armed forces. This year marks the 119th time the two teams have met. A U.S. president is occasionally on hand for the national anthem and coin toss.
President Trump took the field Saturday in Philadelphia before an enormous crowd in Lincoln Financial Field. The audience was composed of Midshipmen of the Navy, West Point cadets and other assembled active duty and military veterans.
The game also featured a prayer and tribute to the late Navy veteran, former President George H.W. Bush. (RELATED: Here's A Look Back At George H.W. Bush's Life In Pictures)
The crowd roared as Trump took the field. Before the game, the student choirs of both military academies join together to sing the national anthem. You could hear a pin drop during the rendition.

GREAT FALLS- Veterans got a little head start this afternoon, November 10th on a nice home-cooked Thanksgiving meal, thanks to folks helping out over at the Grace Home.
Local groups in our community spent yesterday afternoon at Central Catholic High School preparing all the food you see so these vets could all enjoy a free turkey lunch. There were all the classic Thanksgiving food items on their menu including stuffing, cranberry sauce, and of course pumpkin pie.
"It means a lot to us to be able to serve them and to be a part of making it a special day for them," said Mike Mettam, a volunteer for the Thanksgiving meal at the Grace Home.
Mike said this isn't the only opportunity vets have to enjoy a nice home cooked meal. In fact, the Vet Center does a potluck every month. Although this was their first Thanksgiving type luncheon, they are hoping to keep it at a tradition for years to come.

Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor; and Whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint committee, requested me to recommend to the people of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness:
Now, therefore, I do recommend and assign Thursday, the 26th day of November next, to be devoted by the people of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being who is the beneficent author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of the people of this country previous to their becoming a nation; for the signal and manifold mercies and the favorable interpositions of His providence in the course and conclusion of the late war; for the great degree of tranquility, union, and plenty which we have since enjoyed; for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national one now lately instituted for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and, in general, for all the great and various favors which He has been pleased to confer upon us.
And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech Him to pardon our national and other transgressions; to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually; to render our National Government a blessing to all the people by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed; to protect and guide all sovereigns and nations (especially such as have shown kindness to us), and to bless them with good governments, peace, and concord; to promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science among them and us; and, generally to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as He alone knows to be best.
Given under my hand, at the city of New York, the 3rd day of October, A.D. 1789.
Veterans Day Message – 2018
MG Paul E. Vallely. US Army (Ret.)
Chairman, Stand Up America US Foundation
On the 11th hour ofct. On November 11, 1919, Armistice Day was commemorated for the first time. In 1919, President Wilson the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 an armistice between Germany and the Allied nations came into effect and proclaimed the day should be…"filled with solemn pride in the heroism of those who died in the country's service and with gratitude for the victory." At 11am, there was a brief suspension of business activities so that parades and public meetings could place.
Today, our Nation comes together to honor our veterans and commemorate the legacy of profound service and sacrifice they have upheld in pursuit of a more perfect Union. Through their steadfast defense of America's ideals, our service members have ensured our country stands strong and that these ideals and virtues still shine throughout America.
Nations around the world seek freedom. We know the blessings of freedom. As we offer our sincere appreciation and respect to our veterans, to their families, to those who are still in harm's way, and to those we have laid to rest, let us dedicate ourselves to keep America strong.
Our men and women in uniform are bearers of a proud military tradition that has been dutifully passed forward—from generation to generation—for more than two centuries. In times of war and peace, our veterans have served with courage and distinction in the face of tremendous adversity, demonstrating an unfaltering commitment to America and our people. Many have made the ultimate sacrifice to preserve the country they loved including our son, Scott Vallely. The selflessness of our service members is unmatched, and they remind us that there are few things more fundamentally American than doing our utmost to make a difference in the lives of others and secure our great country.
Just as our veterans stood watch and stand watch today on freedom's frontier and along our borders, so have they safeguarded the prosperity of Americans in our neighborhoods, our businesses, and our homes. It is our moral obligation to ensure that they receive our support, despite the current gutting of our Armed Forces, for as long as they live as proud veterans of the United States Armed Forces. On Veterans Day, we pay tribute to the veterans, to the fallen, and to their families. To honor their contributions to America, let us strive with renewed determination to keep the promises we have made to all who have answered our country's call. As we fulfill our obligations to them, we keep faith with the patriots who have risked their lives to preserve the Union, and with the ideals of service and sacrifice upon which our Republic was founded.
We CALL upon every member of federal, state and local government, legislative, judicial, law enforcement and military, who have taken an oath to protect and defend the ConstitutionalRepublic from all enemies, foreign and domestic, to act upon those oaths for the stated purpose of restoring the Constitutional Republic.
We CALL upon ALL veterans and veteran organizations in America, who still believe in their oath to protect and defend, to unite with us at once – in this Declaration to maintain the Constitutional Republic.
We CALL for ALL citizens who still desire freedom and liberty, to stand with us and carry our demands to right the wrongs against our nation in the preservation of freedom, liberty, justice and the rule of law.
GOD BLESS All Of YOU AND GOD BLESS OUR NATION.

Ammo Grrrll returns with reflections on WALMART'S [ill-timed] AMMO SALE! She writes:
Any shooter who hasn't been in a medically-induced coma for the last two years knows that .22 ammo has been scarcer than functional hard-drives at the IRS. Given the title of my Friday guest column and my "handle," you can guess that I am known around my Dusty Little Village (DLV) in Arizona for being keenly interested in accumulating ammo.
When it is hot in Arizona (March through November), I frequently do my daily walk at Walmart. There are multiple bathrooms, a climate controlled environment, water fountains, no mosquitoes, and doughnuts as a reward for walking for an hour. Or so. No need to keep obsessive track of the time. Do you think it is a sign of the Apocalypse or simply a sign that a person has no life if she knows the names of 42 individual Walmart employees?
On the last day of September, one of the managers (Tattoo Mike as opposed to Kneepad Mike, recovering from knee surgery) excitedly informed me that Walmart had been stockpiling cases and cases of .22 ammo and was fixin' to have a huge sale! Color me happy! Not just any crappy old .22s either, but CCIs, the Cadillac of .22 ammo.
"OMG," I said, in all caps. "When?"
And he said, "This coming Saturday."
"OMG," I repeated in sorrow and disbelief. "Saturday is Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish year! I can't eat, drink, spend money or drive. And we spend all day praying."
Tattoo Mike had never heard of Yom Kippur. So much for multiculturalism. Now, I don't mind at all when gentiles, even store personnel, wish me a "Merry Christmas." I say it right back. I was amused, not offended when the cashier at Byerly's supermarket in St. Paul put a "Sale on Easter Ham" leaflet into my grocery bag, despite its being filled with Kosher for Passover food. I did not call a whiny press conference when the clueless little girl at the same market's post office counter gave me stamps with the Baby Jesus on them for what I specifically told her were my Hanukkah cards.
But a Yom Kippur ammo sale? That I could not even attend!? That is something up with which I could not put.
I begged Tattoo Mike to sell me some the day before. He said management had anticipated possible shenanigans and the cash registers wouldn't even allow it. I hinted broadly at a religious discrimination suit and casually mentioned that Mr. Ammo Grrrll is, among many many things, an attorney. No dice. I started making a "No justice, no peace" banner. Briefly considered looting or interrupting a symphony. Rejected idea as I do not look good in orange and jumpsuits are not handy for women of late, late middle age who have excitable bladders.
Do you think my neighbor, the Paranoid Texan, or my shooting instructor, or my poker buddy, the Iraqi vet, who stood in line would share their stash with me? Well, heck no. They are all shooters too and Walmart had a limit of 3 boxes to a customer. Each of these men would probably give me a kidney if I needed one. But asking for .22s is over the line. Like ladies in the '50s with their precious books of Green Stamps, some things are just not negotiable. Yom Kippur ended around 7:30 p.m. They had run out of .22s by 1:30.
I'm hoping the next .22 sale is on Christmas Eve to give me a sporting chance. It seems only fair, like when an umpire flubs a call and then later favors the other team in a "make-up" call. But I'm not holding my breath.

The story of 'fosfeen'
"I have always been fascinated with the sun, the ultimate relic of our time. My work tries to invoke the delicate balance between it's beautiful light and blinding brightness."
Many beliefs and religions worship our sun as the patron of all life. Depicting it in their relics while never being able to truly see it in all its brightness. This duplicity is what captivates the audience, longing to worship its incandescent beauty to the point of being blinded in their animated gaze.

Garcinia Cambogia is a supplement that has been gaining popularity among dieters for its potential effects on cravings and appetite, which may lead to weight loss in some people. Garcinia Cambogia Extract comes from a plant known as Garcinia gummi-gutta that naturally contains high amounts of a substance called hydroxycitric acid, or HCA.
It has been featured on the Dr. Oz show as a revolutionary weight loss supplement. Studies have shown that dieters who take Garcinia Cambogia can lose a kilogram or more than dieters not taking the supplement over a period of several weeks.
The active ingredient, Hydroxycitric Acid (HCA) may help regulate blood sugar and prevent excess calories from being stored as fat.
Garcinia Cambogia is a common ingredient in Asian cuisines, but is most often used as a weight loss supplement.
It is typically sold in capsule or liquid form, and the recommended dose is about 500 mg three times per day, or 1500 mg.
African Mango, also known as Irvingia Gaboninsis is another weight loss supplement that has increased in popularity recently. The plant naturally grows in Africa and is also raised on farms for its fruit as well as other parts of the plant, such as the bark, leaves, and roots.
Which have medicinal uses rooted in tradition in the area. The extract that may promote weight loss comes from the seed of the plant, which also contains fiber.
Traditionally, ground up seed from the African mango plant was used during hunting expeditions, when hunters needed to stave off hunger for hours.
Studies have shown that taking African Mango 30 minutes before a meal may reduce appetite, which can lead to weight loss. Recommended Dosage is typically 150 mg twice a day prior to meals.
This supplement has also been featured on the Dr. Oz. show as a way to promote weight loss naturally. It is similar to Garcinia Cambogia in that it also affects the way nutrients are absorbed into the body which can lead to weight loss even in people who do not try to change their diets.
Try out Garcinia Cambogia RISK-FREE! To get started Click Here!
Combining Garcinia Cambogia and African mango may have a greater impact on weight reduction than using either alone. Both are considered relatively safe and have been shown to promote weight loss due to appetite reduction.
Critics have pointed to the small amount of weight loss compared to control groups when these supplements were taken separately.
However, these studies were mostly done over a period of a few weeks, not over a long period of time, and the results of most experiments testing these supplements had statistically significant results showing that the supplements could promote weight loss, though they may not be effective for all people.
Side effects of these supplements are rare, though as with any supplement, you should consult a doctor if you are concerned about medical conditions or if you are taking other medications. If you notice unusual side effects, you should quit taking these supplements immediately and see a doctor if symptoms persist.
These supplements are both non-stimulants, which means they are both much safer than supplements like ephedra which have been taken off the market. The risks are low, so trying African mango and Garcinia Cambogia along with a healthy diet and exercise plan may lead to an easier way to lose and keep off extra pounds.
Remember: If you want to increase the speed in which you lose weight while taking Garcinia Cambogia. Then combining African Mango with Garcinia Cambogia can be on of the best things that you can do. African Mango is an excellent appetite suppressant and fat burner. You can't go wrong with either of these two fantastic natural supplements.

Harlem Shake video transforms home
May 24, 2013 — Jeanne Pengelly
West Lake Terrace residents have been taking on their own version of the Internet phenomenon known as the Harlem Shake.
Dubbed the Harlem Shuffle by the staff at the Prince Edward County long-term care home, it was designed to give residents a unique social and physical activity, says life enrichment aide Janie Butler, who dreamed up the idea.
"It's a social thing, it's exercise, it's active range of motion, and any time we can expose the residents to something new and different — especially if it's something happening outside these four walls," she says, referring to the Internet craze that made the Harlem Shake videos popular.
The Harlem Shake is an Internet meme — a concept that spreads via the World Wide Web — in this case, in the form of a video.
It was made popular this year after five teenagers from Australia uploaded a video of themselves dancing ridiculously to the Baauer song "Harlem Shake."
Their video was in response to a similar one posted on You Tube by a vlogger named Filthy Frank.The teenagers' video went viral and spawned thousands of new videos each day in March.
With familiar tunes playing on the stereo, the sight was almost unimaginable.
Residents in wheelchairs were helped to their feet and hit the dance floor with the encouragement and support of staff members, who appeared to have just as much fun as the residents.
Those who couldn't walk shuffled in their chairs or joined hands with other residents to chair-dance.
It all lasted the length of two songs — just a short time, like the Harlem Shake videos on the Internet.
"I was inspired partly by my niece and nephew on spring break. They showed me a couple of videos that were popular," Butler says.
She searched the Internet and found a handful of long-term care homes both sides of the border making similar Harlem Shake videos, so she presented the idea to life enrichment co-ordinator, Julie Clarkson, and the rest just "shook" into place.
West Lake Terrace staff asked residents if they'd like to make dancing a regular activity, and all cheered in agreement.
They'll consider a full-fledged dance in the future. For now, it's the Harlem Shuffle that marks the calendar.

Have come across a minor technical hitch.
The roadway and track need a bit more distance between each over - getting the occasional running glitch when a road vehicle and train are in close proximity, they want to meet each other.
Something that was not an issue with large ( std set track pieces) as the roadway could be moved more towards the middle. May try a bit of screening on the roadway control box as I suspect this could also be part of the problem or re-routing some of the wires.
Fortunately this problem has been spotted before the road was fixed down and blended in with the scenery.

A New Standard and a Big Statement
Chicago developer Mark Goodman & Associates is creating something special at 310 N. Sangamon Street in the Fulton Market District. It's a 12-story office building, but it's also so much more than that: it's an innovation in environmental design, a bold step into a greener future, and statement on the current state of architecture that hopes to send a message throughout the industry.
This building uniquely embraces a construction method called "passive house standards." More commonly understood and embraced in Europe, this approach reduces the building's ecological footprint by using design to reduce the amount of energy used for heating and cooling. This project will be only the second "passive house" office building ever built in the country, and promises to be the largest one ever constructed to those standards. Needless to say, it will be a memorable addition to Chicago.
While new construction is exciting, there's a deeper purpose here: to foster a culture of wellness, employee support, and comfort, and to create an environment where tenants feel cared for at a new level. The air will be purer and the environment will be more conducive for collaboration and community interaction, with a location that taps and encourages innovation, social engagement, and progressive thinking. Such a unique and technology-driven office needed an equally forward-thinking locale to be built in, and Chicago's Fulton Market was the perfect fit.
Environmental sustainability, sadly, is not exactly a major factor in business decisions these days, but The Sangamon hopes to change that by introducing a new, greener standard for America's workforce. These changes aren't just for the planet—they're for the individual and everyone's wellbeing. With a motivated, healthy, and positively inspired staff, a business can go anywhere.
Mark Goodman & Associates, in partnership with Torque, will create a marketing message and experience that emphasizes a sense of cultural priority and a sustainable environment. 310. N. Sangamon will be the focal point and a symbol of a new kind of innovation - one that forwards humanity and the environment as well as the business world.

Me against all Christendom (Calling you)
I am in the oddest of places. I have found faith in God by attending a local church and in the past been involved in several churches. Not only was I involved in Sunday school and dramas, I was a youth pastor for several years as well. But in all of this, I find that I do not agree with the gospel the church sells to people. What puts me in the oddest of places is, I was drawn to God with the church gospel. I was not drawn to God by what I read in my bible.
It isn't that the gospel I find in my bible would not draw me to the Lord, for certainly it would and probably more sincerely. It is simply a matter of a fact that I never was exposed to the gospel I read.
My blog "The Gospel According to the Gospel" is dedicated to presenting the gospel I find in scripture, defending it and debunking the gospel of the church. This however puts me up against all of Christendom. It is literally me against all Christianity. I as a small voice in a vast arena of voices am trying to change the mindset of the church on what our gospel is.
Is it that I am crazy for thinking that I am right and the rest of Christendom is wrong? Do I suffer from a messiah complex and try to draw people away? Is there any bases in scripture for a whole group of people to get something all wrong? Is there any bases in scripture for all the chosen people of God to miss something, or does scripture show constantly that the body of God's chosen people always understands, always perceives all things? Does scripture support mob ideology for the standard of truth or does it support truth?
Even Jesus taught that the people of God as a whole can be totally out in left field, missing what could have been theirs. Not missing what could have been theirs because it was hidden, but missing what was right in front of their faces. I too contend that the church misses what should be right in front of our faces, and this being our gospel. The church proclaims it is the vehicle of the gospel and I contend it is the vehicle of another gospel. So am I crazy or am I standing up and doing something that will make me distinct from a whole group of people that missed what was right in front of their faces.
Can you think of a whole group of people, that Jesus taught about, who got it all wrong? Would you want to have been one of the people who got it right? Even if you were the only one? If you want to be one of the ones who gets it right, study "The Gospel According to the Gospel"

Will Facebook Messenger Marketing Live Up to The Hype?
Facebook messenger marketing will be the newest and most innovative standard for building your business online.
This is the latest trend and it is setting the industry on fire.
This will change the way most people do business and promote their business online by using Facebook messenger marketing.
Why is that?
Facebook realizes that many marketers spend a lot of money promoting ads on Facebook and Facebook also understands that
many of these Facebook ads come from network marketers, who cannot get their ads published because of Facebook rules and guidelines
against promoting network marketing opportunities.
The savvy and seasoned marketers have found ways to work around these obstacles but the average marketer struggles greatly.
Getting their ads shut down continuously
Then ultimately getting their Facebook ads account shut down and unable to create ads.
So this has created quite a dilemma.
Make no mistake about it Facebook is a tremendous force in the business world and does not want to lose their
advertising dollars.
That`s why they have enabled marketers to use messenger as a way to engage their audience and introduce their business to those
that have expressed an interest.
I say again EXPRESSED AN INTEREST.
So once someone shows interest in something you are offering, then you have to get consent to engage with them through messenger.
That is where the fun begins.
Facebook Messenger Marketing Subscription
When you share a post on Facebook or any other social media site you want to leave a link to your Facebook messenger marketing optin.
This link will act as a lead capture page.
Once someone clicks on the link or image they will be redirected to a confirmation page.
On the confirmation page they will be asked if they are willing to receive messages via Facebook messenger?
As long as they accept, they will be subscribed to your messenger list and you can communicate with them and share some information.
This is when you educate your audience not pitch them.
Share information and ask questions as to whether they know the benefits of your services or products.
Find out why they requested more information from you.
Get to know their pain points and then provide the solution.
But before you can provide a solution you have to find out what the problem is.
That`s what makes the Facebook messenger marketing tool so effective.
It gives you the ability to communicate with your prospects to see if there is real interest in your business.
Don`t rush the process, take your time to see how you can be of service to your audience and once you find the right ones
the work is already done.
They will ask you, what do they need to do next.
Facebook Messenger Marketing Takeover
The Facebook messenger marketing will be a game changer.
Pretty soon you will be able to buy and sell products on messenger, plus so much more.
So this is just the beginning.
I will share my simple but very effective strategy that I used to generate over 600 subscribers in 30 days once you have purchased the training.
There are so many creative strategies you can use to build your subscribers list and add them to your email list as well.
You can send out blast messages to all of your subscribers at one time if you have a special promotion or something going on.
You can also create special tags for different individuals and send messages to a specific group.
The options are endless and growing day by day.
Network marketers will no longer have to struggle to find leads to share their business opportunity with.
Once you understand how to set up your messages and lead capture page, your returns are limitless.
You can even install widgets on your website and have people subscribe to your list directly from your website.
If you are not getting the results you want from your business then this is the tool you need to build your business.

Helicopter Pilot with Rescued Chimpanzee, Mussa (credit: PBS Newshouse, YouTube)
It is said: "a photography is worth a thousand words". That is definitely true with an image of a Belgium helicopter pilot, Anthony Caere, who assists rangers in Virguna National Park to conduct aerial wildlife surveys. Caere was called into action to help rescue a young chimp, 3-year old Mussa, who was being sold in a local market as a pet. Mussa was tied to a stake and under great stress after his mother was killed for the illicit 'bushmeat trade'. The young chimp had to be ferried quickly to a primate center, the Lwiro Primate Rehibilitation Center, for care. Caere's helicopter was the perfect vehicle.

In the PBS Newshour report, young Mussa sat on the pilot's lap for the entire flight. He was obviously interested in his new aerial surroundings and kept looking out the window as any kid would on their first flight. Mussa paid particular attention to the levers and gears used to guide the copter. Eventually he fell asleep in the pilot's lap. Caere said his rescue mission should never have had to happen in the first place. His comment is worth more than a few words. However if his story, and that of the wildlife rangers on the ground, reach a wide audience it will definitely show how compassion is put into action.

Autism Learning Partners Acquires Proof Positive ABA Therapies – Creating One of the Largest Autism Therapy Platforms in the United States
Autism Learning Partners ("ALP"), a national provider of therapy to children with autism spectrum disorders, headquartered in Glendale, CA, today announced its acquisition of Proof Positive ABA Therapies ("Proof Positive"), a rapidly growing provider throughout the United States. Autism Learning Partners (formerly known as Pacific Child & Family Associates) began offering services to children with autism and other developmental disabilities in 1988.
Proof Positive, with offices in Costa Mesa and Commerce, CA, will continue to operate with its current management team as a wholly owned subsidiary of Autism Learning Partners.
The combination of these businesses, which will operate under ALP's Chief Executive Officer, Jeffrey Winter, creates one of the largest autism therapy providers in the U.S., and one of the few scaled providers in the country serving children with autism. "I believe Autism Learning Partners and Proof Positive working together will be an exceptional partnership," Jeffrey Winter said. "Both organizations are committed to common core values around excellence, teamwork and compassion for the many families and children we provide exceptional care to. In fact, the combined organization will be providing care for over 2,500 clients nationwide."
Heather Grimaldi, MS BCBA, Clinical Director and Founder of Proof Positive commented, "It was my dream to start a company that put families first and to try to help as many people as possible. I'm so proud that we were able to fulfill this and now expand on it. With joining ALP's phenomenal team, we are ecstatic to be able to grow even larger and look forward to helping more families."
Equity financing for the Proof Positive acquisition was provided by Jefferson River Capital LLC ("JRC"), now the single largest shareholder of Autism Learning Partners. Other shareholders include funds managed by Scopia Capital Management LP as well as funds managed by Great Point Partners. JRC is a single family office based in New York and includes a dedicated direct private equity investment platform.

Curator's Choice: 10 Modern Poetry Pamphlets
Chosen by Dr Richard Price, Head of Modern British Collections, The British Library
What is a pamphlet? This can be a question on the lines of "How long is a piece of string?" but for these purposes it's simply a short book – say, 36 pages or less. The pamphlet has been an important communicator of political and religious ideas over the centuries but it is poetry and poetry alone that is the subject here.
A pamphlet is usually a stapled booklet without a hard binding but our working definition is what we hope is a generous one, so it can still be a hardback: two hardbound heavyweights were T. S. Eliot's The Waste Land and Philip Larkin's The North Ship, both 35 pages, each weighing in just within our upper limit.
The list below only scratches the surface of pamphlet poetry. It's tempting to open the doors more internationally – in which case La prose du Transsibérien (1913) by Blaise Cendrars with images by Sonia Delaunay – would be a wonderful example. This long poem about an imagined trip on the Trans-Siberian Express is unfolded as one colourful sheet, a beautifully imagined rendering of the poem.
Eliot's The Waste Land, mentioned above, would also be there but for a much larger selection with this title that had been published in the United States in the previous year. Even so this is a key twentieth century text in all its concentration: the poem, the whole poem and nothing but the poem. It was published in Richmond, Surrey, by Leonard and Virginia Woolf in the Hogarth Press imprint.
North of the border, a 1940 book with the utilitarian title 17 Poems for 6d contained poems in Gaelic, Scots and English. It announced what would come to be the towering presence in modern Gaelic poetry of Sorley Maclean and the master of Edinburgh Scots Robert Garioch. Seamus Heaney's Eleven Poems (Festival Publications, 1965) is also notable: this sixteen page publication was the first book by the poet who later became a Nobel laureate. By the time it was published Heaney was already signed by the large independent Faber, who published Death of a Naturalist the following year. Other poets in the Festival pamphlet series included several now widely acclaimed, including Michael Longley, Derek Mahon and John Montague.
Over the course of the century many others have adopted the pamphlet for their poetry – including Ted Hughes, Edwin Morgan, Anne Stevenson, Carol Ann Duffy, Linton Kwesi Johnson, Paul Muldoon, Ian Sinclair, Penelope Shuttle, James Fenton, Daljit Nagra, Barry Macsweeney, Tom Leonard, Simon Armitage, Jen Hadfield and Benjamin Zephaniah. So this list is an entirely personal choice.
1. Edward Thomas, Six Poems [1916]. Published under the pseudonym Edward Eastaway this is the only book of poems published by Thomas in his lifetime. It is a glimpse of the lyric poetry which only fully emerged posthumously, helping to re-focus English poetry in the direction of a subtle, sometimes angry, plain-speaking lyric. (British Library shelfmark: 11642.h.49)
quotation: "This is no case of petty right or wrong / That politicians or philosopher / Can judge. I hate not Germans, nor grow hot / With love of Englishmen, to please newspapers."
2. W. H. Auden, Poems (1928). This was printed by Auden's friend Stephen Spender – initially quite badly – on the kind of press used for printing prescriptions. It was later finished by a professional printer, the Holywell Press in Oxford. (British Library shelfmark: C.190.aa.24)
quotation: "A blackbird's sudden scurry / Lets broken tree twigs fall / To shake the torpid pool; / And, breaking from the copse, / I climb the hill, my corpse / Already wept, and pass / Alive into the house."
3. Dylan Thomas, 18 poems (Sunday Referee and Parton Bookshop, 1934). The Welsh master's debut was published after Thomas had won a competition in the Sunday Referee national newspaper. It was co-published by the Referee and the legendary alternative bookshop. Thomas was barely out of his teens. (British Library shelfmark: Cup.403.d.1.)
quotation: "Especially when the October wind / With frosty fingers punishes my hair, / Caught by the crabbing sun I walk on fire / And cast a shadow crab upon the land,"
4. Philip Larkin, The North Ship (Fortune Press, 1945). In a way a false start – in later books Larkin sloughed off the Auden and Yeats influences he displays here – but Larkin's lonely melancholy is already present. (British Library shelfmark: Larkin 35)
quotation: "Heaviest of flowers, the head / Forever hangs above a stormless bed."
5. Roy Fisher, City (Migrant Press, 1961). Fisher's largely prose-poetry evocation of Birmingham was published by fellow poets Gael Turnbull and Michael Shayer. (British Library shelfmark: X.908/3159) .
quotation: "The society of singing birds and the society of mechanical hammers inhabit the world together, slightly ruffled and confined by each other's presence."
6. Ian Hamilton Finlay, Glasgow Beasts, An a Burd, Haw, An Inseks, An, Aw, A Fush (papercuts by John Picking and design by Pete McGinn; 1961). A charming book that combines Glaswegian, the ancient idea of a bestiary (about the secret life of creatures) and high production values. Despite or because of the lightness of touch it was controversial, offending some who weren't open to the expressive potential of urban Scots. (British Library shelfmark: Cup.510.cop.1)
quotation: "see me / wan time / ah wis a fox / an wis ah sleekit!"
7. Bob Cobbing, Six Sound Poems (Writers Forum, 1968). Many of Bob Cobbing's books were in pamphlet form. He was a founder of Writers Forum which published hundreds of stapled books by himself and by other poets. Some moved onto other kinds of writing - the US political writer P. J. O'Rourke for example, who had an early avant-garde collection published by the press. Some, like Maggie O'Sullivan and Bill Griffiths, continued to develop their poetry using the small presses. Cobbing was famed for his sound poetry performances but on the page he was also a visual poet, experimenting with fonts, collage, overlays and the full space of the page. (British Library shelfmark: YA.2003.b.3717)
quotation: "wan / do / tree / fear / fife"
8. J. H. Prynne, Fire Lizard (The Blacksuede Boot Press, 1970). Prynne is perhaps the pamphlet poet par excellence – many of his works exist first as individual sequences published as short books by small presses. This press was run by fellow poets Barry Macsweeney and Elaine Randell. Lyrical and many-layered, Prynne's poetry rewards the contemplation given space by the pamphlet's physical form. (British Library shelfmark: Cup.501.h.41).
quotation: "Still I love you. / That's the reason too."
9. Denise Riley, Marxism for infants (Street Editions 1977). An early book by a poet who is regarded as both a lyrical and avant-garde writer (see also her pamphlet collaboration with Wendy Mulford, No Fee: A Line or Two for Free, Street Editions, 1978). Riley is concerned especially with the way that domestic and everyday language shapes and challenges identity. (British Library shelfmark: YA.1993.b.442)
quotation: "hold fast in arms before astonished eyes / whom you must grasp through great changes / constant and receptive as a capital city"
10. Kathleen Jamie, Black Spiders (Salamander, 1982). The debut of a poet later acclaimed for her travel writing and the lyric power of her poetry. (British Library shelfmark: X.950/28488)
quotation: "Every taken chasing step / in the parting dark / from the old barred door / made a few stars fade."

It's your first time in Las Vegas? Perfect, everything is new to you, so you should have a fabulous time discovering what everybody is so excited about. First, this is a marathon, not a race. Your first trip to Las Vegas is like a research mission that will have you trying new things and getting excited about the endless possibilities. You will have fun but you will also be dying to come back.
Let's get started!
Before we get going are you:
- Looking for the Tourist Experience?
- You want to experience Las Vegas for all its attractions and "Vegasness." Yes, you will drink a Margarita out of a giant plastic cup, you will stand in front of Bellagio and enjoy the free show and you might just seek out the Elvis impersonators. Your food experiences might be expensive and cheap all rolled into one.
- Looking for a Family Vacation?
- You want the kids to have a good time, you will spend time at the pools and the afternoon shows geared toward the kids. You might also look for a few arcades as well as food courts. You might go off strip for some adventure as well.
- Looking for a Never Ending Party?
- You will most likely forgo sleep for a few days of testing the abilities of your liver. Oh, you will probably dance more than you have ever wanted. You will most likely be very flirtatious. You might even make a few bad decisions. You will go home more tired than when you arrived.
- Looking to Gamble non-stop?
- You double down, raise, throw the bones, bet on black, let it ride, check the spread, you do it all. You are the one who gets into town and starts making plans for the extra money that will soon reside in your pocket.
- Looking for a Culinary Adventure?
- You will search high and low for the very best when it comes to feeding your passion. Food! Celebrity chefs, inventive cuisine and decadent meals are what you crave and Las Vegas is ground zero for that experience.
- Looking to be Entertained?
- You have heard about the shows and you want to see them all. You want to experience Las Vegas from the showrooms, comedy clubs and concert halls. From the free shows to the production shows you want to be entertained.
- Looking for a Budget Vacation?
- You want to get to Las Vegas for as little as possible and get a taste of the Vegas experience for as little as possible. Cheap hotels, cheap food, cheap entertainment, that explains your idea of a vacation.
Looking for resources on coupons, deals, reservations and tickets in Las Vegas? Research a little and you could possibly save a lot.
Once again, understand that Las Vegas means different things to different people. When someone suggests something to you try to imagine what their idea of fun is and go from there. You might be seeking something entirely different than the norm or you just might be looking for something different than what you typically expect. One thing that is for sure is that you will want to come back soon to see and do all the things you missed out on your first visit.

The problem in the media characterizations is that everything is described as a "bailout" since that is the story that plays. There is also special emphasis on what the taxpayer will get in return, judged on the basis of investment potential.
Get serious! The government is not a hedge fund. The purpose of these actions is not a specific return on investment, but avoiding the collapse of the economy. Many of the commitments have specific collateral. Many are short-term in nature and some have already been repaid. Others are showing a profit. These are not just grants, and certainly not all "bailouts."
It is typical media punditry. Describing a program as a bailout is an easy and popular story. The source attracts many readers, blog hits, or ratings. Analyzing the public policy costs and benefits is more difficult and pretty boring.
Readers can get some clarification from this interesting interactive graphic from Slate, allowing you to see the timeline and terms of each decision.
Investment Take
The investment conclusion starts with the notion that almost no one has any confidence in the specific plans or the effects, one of our items on the Wall Street Truthiness list.
We plan more detailed discussion, but the broad concept is easy. Few of the existing pundit opinions and none of the econometric models allow for much impact from these programs. Meanwhile, we have efforts of unprecedented size.
There is a contrarian opportunity.

Since the mid-1980s, the aerosol coatings industry has addressed the issue of sales restrictions on aerosol coatings that are imposed by state and local municipalities because of its role in graffiti vandalism. State legislatures and local governments, at times, propose to place restrictions on retailers for the sale of aerosol coatings. With the assistance of the Graffiti Resource Council (GRC), ACA has monitored and addressed these developments.

This Coconut Curry Lentil Bowl is a one-pot dinner that comes together in about 30 minutes. This vegan, gluten-free meal is full of flavor and is immensely satisfying. It pairs perfectly with warm naan bread.
Do you want to know what's an absolute tragedy? My kids don't enjoy any meals where their food is mixed together or with any type of sauce. Yes, the one-pot meal, a busy mom's dream dinner, is my kids' worst nightmare.
I'm a persistent gal, though, and one thing I've learned about feeding children is that their tastes and preferences do change, especially if you continue to serve them a variety of foods over time. I haven't given up on the one-pot meal. I keep trying.
I served this Coconut Curry Lentil Bowl to Meghan and Luke along with whole grain naan bread, raw vegetables, and applesauce. I added more to the meal (easy things I didn't have to cook) because I knew they wouldn't eat a lot, if any, of the one-pot meal I was serving as the main entree.
I reminded Meghan that she loves chickpeas, and even though she was reluctant, she picked them out and ate them. Luke will do what Meghan does usually, so he followed his big sister and ate his chickpeas. They both were a n0-go to try the kale or saucy mix of lentils, and I didn't push it. They devoured their naan (a favorite) and also ate all of their carrots, red peppers, and applesauce.
I didn't mean to talk so much about how this meal worked for my kids, but I know a lot of moms read and are probably interested in how dinner time looks at other houses. I know I am always curious. But let me move on to the dynamics of the dish before I lose your interest! (Too late?)
This is a super quick and easy dinner. Quick, easy, AND healthy. Not an easy-to-come-by combination! Oh, and full of flavor. I just love coconut+curry together, and there's also fresh ginger, lime, and cilantro that bring the whole thing together. I ate just this because of my anti-inflammation diet, but it's perfect with warm naan bread. If you need a vegan, gluten-free, weeknight meal that is super satisfying, this Coconut Curry Lentil Bowl is exactly what you need.Print

Even though I am going to wait a month to give you a detailed update of how things are going with my new diet and finger pain, I can't wait to tell you how things are going. After one week on an anti-inflammation diet, I have seen a significant improvement in my finger pain!
One week ago, I could not bend my finger in the morning and throughout the day making a fist was impossible. I can do both of those things now and the pain is much less. I did not expect to feel a difference so quickly, but I am more determined than ever to continue with the changes I've made. I'll give you more details in time, but I just wanted to give you a quick update since I'm so excited about the results so far. Thanks again for all of your comments and support.

It's Throwback Thursday and this week we're talking about the Toyota Avalon and how it's changed since 1995 when it was first put on the market! The styling and features may have changed with the times, but the fact that it's Toyota's most popular full-size sedan hasn't!
The Toyota Avalon took the country by storm!
Since the mid-1990s when this Toyota was first released to the public, it has always been known for its powerful V6 engine, spacious interior and longtime reliability!
For 20 years, the Toyota Avalon near Orlando has had an impressive seating capacity but still has enough leg room to keep passenger comfortable! The third generation of this Toyota was released and advertised to have even more leg room!
In 2003, this chic Toyota was modified for a couple of changes! The car became even more stylish after being redone with a new grille, headlights and taillights! Two years later, the whole vehicle got a redesign! The engine and transmission were designed to enhance performance and to be more efficient. Since then, this modern Toyota near Orlando has been transformed and molded to be one of the best-selling full size sedans in America!
This new Toyota near Orlando is better than ever!
The standard V6 engine delivers a substantial amount of power! You would think a vehicle with that much power would have poor fuel economy, but you would be incorrect! This new Toyota near Orlando gets an estimated 21 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway. Power and efficiency are two things you won't have to worry about missing in this 2015 Toyota near Orlando!
Famous for its roomy cabin, the 2015 Toyota Avalon can seat up to five people! Those sitting in the rear seats have 39.2 inches of leg room and 57 inches of shoulder room! No more calling shotgun, because your friends will be fighting for the back seat on your next road trip!
One large difference from the original 1995 model is that the 2015 model is packed full of all the latest technology!
- The available Entune Audio System with Navigation and App Suite allows you to access so much more than you ever could! Listen to your iPod, connect your phone using Bluetooth or stream music from iHeartRadio!
- The optional Entune Navigation gives you turn-by-turn directions to get you back on the right path when you lose your way.
- Make reservations for dinner, buy movie tickets and check real time weather and traffic conditions using the available Entune App Suite!
- Use the standard integrated backup camera to assist you while parallel parking or getting out of a tight spot!
- Heated front seats will keep you nice and toasty when the temperatures start to drop and you need to seek warmer conditions!
It's pretty obvious a lot has changed in the 20 years that this classic Toyota has been on the market! If you're interested in learning more about the Toyota Avalon, visit Toyota of Clermont at 16851 State Rd. 50, between the Florida Turnpike and Highway 27!
