"Big Oil's long history with climate change," posted September 19 on this blog, asserted that "Exxon Mobil has known for almost 40 years that fossil fuels pose a lethal threat to Earth and all its inhabitants."
"Exxon's Climate Concealment" was published today in the NY Times. The article deals with the same scandalous campaign of deceit, disinformation and denial by Exxon and other industry leaders that climate change is real and caused by burning fossil fuels. The Times clearly used the same source as VBI did, Inside Climate News, a nonprofit news organization with a Pulitzer-Prize-winning web-site, because the two articles are substantially the same.
Despite the satisfaction of "scooping" the Times by three weeks, I'm glad they eventually deemed the story worthy of publication. Their readership is (obviously) orders of magnitude greater than VBI's, and the story is important. (No) thanks to Exxon we have wasted too much precious time trying to clean up their mess and switching to alternate forms of non-polluting energy. But petrodollars talk — very loudly — and there still remains a steep uphill climb to counteract Big Oil's propaganda.

Book Publishing Secrets: A Conversation with Paul A. Barra
We're talking to authors from all walks of life about their experiences in publishing their book. Some have smooth paths, some rocky, but they all share a common goal – to see their name on the cover of their creation. It's interesting to read what path they decided to take to get there and my guest today is here to tell everyone what he did in order to make it all happen so that other writers will learn a little something from the experience.
Visit Paul's website at www.paulbarra.com.
Poor Penelope Andrews. Her neighbor is being hunted, her friend is comatose after encountering a rogue alligator in a black-water swamp, and her mother has formed the wild impression that Penny has some sort of special gift from God! What else could go wrong? Oh yes: the FBI wants to speak with her. And, a dangerous criminal is stalking her.
The Secret of Maggie's Swamp tells the story of young Penny and the courage she shows in dealing with these dynamic issues.
It is an exciting read for children ages 8 through 12. It's a pro-family story that will absorb young readers. Available in bookstores, on Amazon.com and from Brownridge Publishing.
Thank you for your time in answering our questions, Paul. Let's begin by having you explain to us why you decided to write a book?
I like to write and I like to tell stories, so writing books seemed to be a natural extension of those preferences. I like the length of a novel and the opportunity to develop characters and story lines. A book is a major commitment of time and energy, but it's the only way to entertain large numbers of people. And it's the only way to make real money.
Is this your first book?
No, but it is my first juvenile work. I wrote an adult novel that made little money and is now out of print (although I'm hoping it will gain new life on Amazon.com); I did text book supplements under contract and wrote a book about the founding of a Catholic high school that was opposed by the diocese. I found non-fiction to be much less daunting an undertaking than fiction, especially with my journalism background - and especially from the viewpoint of getting into print. Credibility is important for non-fiction work but less so for novels, it seems. When agents press constantly for early hooks and stress the importance of the first page, a writer knows that his manuscript is not going to get a serious read most of the time. A reader might be willing to get into a book some, but editors and agents don't seem to have the time
Can you tell us a little about your publishing journey?
I was a reporter, both for local newspapers in South Carolina and in the Catholic press, for about twenty-five years when I decided to write books. It was fairly easy to break into non-fiction books, but fiction was another issue altogether. I found a small press for one novel but have had little success so far with the major houses. Maybe I should be satisfied with publishing with smaller publishers and try to make a career there. I do think that children's publishing may be a good venue in that regard. My children's book publisher, Brownridge Publishing, not only spent an inordinate amount of time educating me and conforming my writing to the world of young readers, but they promote my book and have sold it to libraries and schools. That's a market where big houses don't have a built-in advantage as they do in the adult market.
What lessons do you feel you learned about the publishing industry?
It's a grossly inefficient business. Agents and editors are so overwhelmed with both suitable and unsuitable manuscripts that they often are unable to be discerning in their selections. Consequently, good writers languish while they wait for someone in the industry to actually read their work. I have learned that small presses are much more likely to give a writer a good look. They are the future of publishing, I think, and the money will eventually catch up with the opportunities.
If you had the chance to change something regarding how you got published, what would you change?
I would try children's literature first and build a career there. It may not pay six-figure advances but it can provide a decent living for a writer. I think it's a viable alternative to writing porn or romances or, right now Amish soaps, to get some cash flowing. The books are shorter, so in that regard juveniles are easier to write than complicated adult fiction. The writer can polish his or her craft and learn to meet deadlines by writing for little guys. And the market, as far as I can see, is wide open.
Did you credit any person or organization with helping you get published?
First, my editor at Brownridge Publishing: I can say with confidence that Maggie's Swamp is a strong novel because of the influence of Theresa Pregent. Secondly, the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators: SCBWI is a fine organization for all writers of juveniles.
What's the best advice you can give to aspiring authors?
Go small press and spend less time worrying about the prestige of Random House and the other few major houses. Small publishers do not have lower standards but they do spend more time reading and picking out the rough diamonds among writers. That is one way they can compete. I don't think a writer should spend much of his writing time promoting his own books and cranking the social media engine if he writes good literature. People will eventually like what you write and you will be successful. If it's time-consuming, so is trying every agent in the book to get a rabbi in New York publishing. At least with the small press route you will be writing (and getting better at it) and your books will be piling up as the years go by, instead of just your collection of rejection emails.

International Press Freedom Awards
(Courtesy of ABC News)
Ferial Haffajee is the editor-in-chief of the local privately owned weekly City Press in South Africa. She was also the editor-in-chief of the weekly investigative paper the Mail & Guardian. Under her leadership, both papers have broken important stories, including "Nkandlagate"--the controversy around the alleged use of public funds for improvements to President Jacob Zuma's homestead.
Haffajee is no stranger to controversy. In 2012, after City Press published a photo of a satirical painting of President Jacob Zuma, called "The Spear," she was met with fierce criticism and threats of violence against herself and her staff. A senior government minister called for a boycott of the newspaper if it didn't take down the image from its website. Ultimately, Haffajee removed the image, but was criticized from other quarters for doing so. Upon reflection, she said she should not have done so. She has described herself as a "free speech fundamentalist."
In 2006, Haffajee and the Mail & Guardian were threatened for publishing cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad. She said she believes she was particularly targeted because she is a Muslim. During her editorship, the Mail & Guardian regularly fought court battles against powerful elites that tried to impose pre-publication censorship on the newspaper, prompting Haffajee and her team to spearhead a campaign against the use of this tactic. In 2012, judgments by both the Supreme Court of Appeal and the Constitutional Court upheld the media's right to "publish and be damned."
In October 2013, Haffajee spoke out against racism in the City Press newsroom, criticizing certain black colleagues. This triggered a heated debate that she was being racist and that she had not "transformed" her newsroom. Haffajee tweeted: "City Press has 8 editors (5 black, 3 white; 4 women, 4 men). We have 68% black staff; about 45% women and a vacancy total of 5."
Haffajee's prior positions include senior editor at the Financial Mail, where she was responsible for political reporting and covered the presidency and the tripartite alliance; radio producer at SABC, where she interviewed Nelson Mandela after he was released from jail in 1990; and cub reporter for the Mail & Guardian, where she later became media editor, economics writer, associate editor, and, finally, editor-in-chief.

The text of Haffajee's acceptance speech, as prepared for delivery, is below.
Thank you, Clarence, and thank you, CPJ.
Twenty years ago, our founding father, Nelson Mandela, set the bar high for what media freedom and free expression would look like in a democratic South Africa. Here's the standard he set: "A critical, independent, and investigative press is the lifeblood of any democracy." And so we are.
As a journalist who worked in decidedly un-free times and who reported the arrival of freedom, I have relished the protection of our Constitution as a vital institution in our society. Our robust media with its investigative bent and trenchant style is a thing of pride.
Nelson Mandela continued: "The press must be free from state interference."
Here, things get more complicated. The instinct of power is often to shut down uncomfortable truths. The media in South Africa faces the real threat of a secrecy law that will harm a critical and independent press.
In addition, we labor under old apartheid statutes which have not been scrapped.
When I remind powerful people that Mandela said, "It is only a free press that can have the capacity to relentlessly expose excesses and corruption," they swat it away.
But Mandela's vision is being eroded. We are often in court, at great expense, to keep open the promise of freedom made 20 years ago. I've come to learn that it is a truism to say that the price of freedom is eternal vigilance. The temptation to secrecy is easy. Transparency dims.
In neighboring Swaziland, Africa's last absolute monarchy, there is no media freedom. Right now, a human rights lawyer, Thulani Maseko, and journalist Bheki Makhubu are jailed there. Their crime: exposing how judges were playing fast and loose with the public purse. Last month, I had the privilege to meet Bheki's wife, Fikile, who cried after accepting a Media Freedom award on her husband's behalf. Life is hard for her.
I accept this great honor in Bheki's name and pledge to do more to help get him released--as well as our colleagues imprisoned in Ethiopia.
A journalist's place is not in jail. It is on the street, in the newsroom, raking the muck, holding power to account to make a better country and continent. As Madiba said: "It is only a free press that can be the vigilant watchdog of the public interest against the temptation of those who would abuse power."
Thank you.

Planned Parenthood Hails,
Right To Life Decries Passage
Of Reproductive Rights Law
Today the New York State Legislature moved our state forward with milestone legislation securing our reproductive health care and rights.
In the face of constant federal attacks and a new anti-Roe majority on the U.S. Supreme Court, Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins and Assembly Speaker Carl E. Heastie led their houses in passing legislation keeping essential reproductive health care in our hands, with the Reproductive Health Act, protecting our right to abortion care.
We (at Planned Parenthood) applaud the leadership of the legislature, bill sponsors, and Gov. Andrew Cuomo for their commitment to securing our reproductive freedom and rights at the beginning of the 2019 legislative session.
As other states roll back abortion rights and access, the RHA enshrines the standard of Roe v. Wade in our state law. With over a decade of advocacy for the RHA, reproductive health care activists statewide are celebrating New York's refusal to turn back the clock on safe, legal abortion and acknowledgment of the centrality of accessible reproductive health care.
"We cannot overstate how important it is for all New Yorkers to have the ability to control their own bodies and determine their own destinies, " said Robin Chappelle Golston, state Planned Parenthood CEO. "As we continue to face challenges … on the federal level, it is paramount that New York is the beacon and state model of what reproductive health care should be."
New York State Right to Life (NYSRTL) is saddened that New York now has what Governor Andrew Cuomo ironically but rightly referred to as "the most aggressive"abortion law in the country.
The Reproductive Health Act (RHA) was sold to the public saying it merely "updates" the law by codifying Roe vs. Wade into our statute, which is not true.
RHA has made abortion a "fundamental right" and prohibits all limits on abortion, which Roe vs Wade did not do.
Roe referred to a trimester view toward protecting life, whereas RHA has expanded abortion-on-demand in New York past 24 weeks – well past when unborn children feel pain, are viable, and suffer during the course of an abortion – and up to birth. This is inhumane.
While we look forward to the time when Roe vs Wade is overturned, under Roe various limits on abortion have repeatedly been upheld as constitutional and are favored by the majority of the public, including in New York. The Governor routinely calls people of good will concerned with how we treat human life extreme, whereas it's this new law that is truly extreme.
NYSRTL will continue to work to expose the misinformation put forth about RHA, protect children and their mothers, protect the rights of pro-life persons to engage in life-saving activities and express their views, and to build a culture of Life in New York.

There is an amazingly high demand for Salesforce experts in IT, and earning this marvelous certification can give you the instant returns such as a handsome salary. The ever-evolving Salesforce ecosystem expands its scope far past the cloud-based CRM platform and offers the professional credentials for product managers, system administrators, developers, and integration architects.
Earning Salesforce Certified Administrator certification is a great way to validate your skills and expertise and draw the attention of the companies that are on the lookout for Salesforce experts. The jobs affiliated with Salesforce require at least one credential, and the starting point is Salesforce Certified Administrator certification. So, here are the basics of ADM 201 exam for you to achieve your Salesforce credential.
There are no prerequisites for ADM 201 exam, but Salesforce highly recommends to take certain courses before taking the test. One of them is Administration Essentials for New Admins (ADM 201) course. Salesforce University offers this training at a whopping price of $4500 despite the course lasts only 3 days.
Other courses recommended by Salesforce include Administration Essentials for New Admins and Certification (ADM 201C), New Admins in Lightning Experience (ADX-201), Preparing for your Salesforce Administrator Certification (CRT-101), and Salesforce Proficiency Pack for Admins.
My personal experience with ADM 201 exam
I took ADM 201 exam and passed it after only a 3-month period of studying. Prior to that, I had just a little grasp of Salesforce, to be honest. This is a clear indication that you can make it too if you are committed to achieving your certification goal.
So how did I make it? Well, in my first month, I had approximately 16 hours each week for studying. My new schedule in the second month was 2 full days of studying plus an extra 2 hours every day for the remaining 5 days.
And believe me, by the beginning of the third month I had exhausted everything and turned to a thorough revision. The schedule was more or less the same, but I majorly focused on practice.

Today 16 November 2018, Treasury has released a consultation paper seeking views on proposed changes to the ASIC Reporting thresholds.
The Draft regulations, which will not require parliamentary approval once the consultation period concludes on 14th December 2018, will have the effect of doubling each of the current reporting thresholds. A company which meets two of the three thresholds is required to comply with financial reporting and audit requirements.
The Thresholds are adjusted as below:
|Current Regulation
|Proposed Regulation
|Consolidated Revenue for the financial year
|$25 million
|$50 million
|Consolidated gross assets at end of financial year
|$12.5 million
|$25 million
|Company and controlled entities have at end of financial year
|50 employees
|100 employees
The Government suggests that the proposed changes are a form of indexation since the regulations were last reviewed in 2007. If passed, the changes will result in approximately 2,200 companies no longer being classified as Large Proprietary Companies and therefore will not be required to prepare and lodge with ASIC a financial report and a directors' report for each financial year.
For more information on what the proposed changes may mean for you, please do not hesitate to contact our office. Below is the link to the Treasury Consultation Paper.

The Twitterverse got its chance to pose cyber risk questions to a panel of distinguished experts at the NetDiligence® Cyber Risk Summit in Santa Monica on October 16. RMS and NetDiligence teamed up to host a live #ChatCyberRisk Q&A session at the conference. The experts on hand included Vinny Sakore, Chief Technology Officer, NetDiligence; Russell Thomas, Principal Engineer – Cyber, RMS and Christos Mitas, Vice President – Model Development, RMS.
Which cyberattacks will grow in prominence? Vinny Sakore sees more and more attacks against individuals – especially high net worth individuals, with personal cyber insurance coverage becoming an important issue in the future.
And the biggest driver of cyber risk for organizations? Russell Thomas stated that the main ones remain; contagious malware (including ransomware) and data theft/exfiltration will continue to be the most prominent types of attacks with potential for severe or catastrophic loss to victims. The number of attacks will also grow as more firms, government organizations, schools, etc. become more dependent on automated processes and e-commerce. Financial risk due to business interruption stands out as the immediate risk driver; in a 2018 survey of 1,300 global companies, 34 percent of companies reported business interruption due to cyberattack.Continue reading

Arm designs semiconductor based digital products. Rather than building the hardware it licenses its designs to technology partners. Arm received royalties on its designs and has increased efficiencies so that it can research and develop new technology cheaper than its clients can develop it in-house.
They are increasing the licence base by 60-90 licences each year to build up long-term growth through increased royalties.
Its products appear in a wide range of products including mobile applications (including smart phones and tablets), computer hardware, digital TV and set-top boxes and microcontrollers.

Since then there have been over 100 million ARM powered Android devices sold and 300 different mobile devices developed with ARM technologies on the market.
There has been a suggestion that Google may make a standard platform for Android based on Arm technology. Android is currently the fastest growing operating system in smartphones and is also growing in the mobile tablet market (competing with the Apple iPad).
ARM also supports Google Chrome which is the new desktop operating system from Google. Google / Android applications are built with ARM technology in mind so that the software performs to the highest standard possible.

A crip left behind, again
Forgive me, but I sometimes think that people try to make things harder for me. I know, I know - this is most probably not so, and people are simply not thinking. They are just not aware. But there are times when I feel that people come up with new ways to make my life harder. I can't help it. Sort of like when I get mad when passing drivers honk their horns, making me jump. Why does everyone always have to make so much noise? Do they like to see me jump?
Take last week, for instance. I wanted to purchase tickets for a play. An attendant wasn't around to make a phone call, so I thought I'd buy the tickets on-line. Cool! I like doing things for myself! Trouble was, it turned out I had something like four minutes to do the order before getting timed out. With my slow typing and with all the information they wanted, this was a tall order and ultimately, after two very frustrating attempts, impossible. I had an attendant call later, and luckily there were still tickets.
This was unfair. It would have been even more unfair if the tickets were cheaper on-line, as is sometimes the case. But I think whoever came up with this program just wasn't thinking of my disability and slow typing. The same with those who designed the automated phone services, like when I call the newspaper to stop delivery while I'm on vacation, that ask one to speak their selection. This is handy, albeit maybe frustrating, for most people but impossible with impaired speech.
At least they're not sneaky and evil. Not like Motel 6.
I'm about to go out of town, and I've been thinking of Motel 6. For years when I traveled, I stayed at Motel 6s quite happily. They were more or less affordable on my fixed income and provided what I need, and some, like the one in Morro Bay, were quite nice. Then, two or three years ago, all their wheelchair-accessible rooms had only one bed (no roll-away beds available). This meant I had to get two rooms for me and my attendant. Sure, there are disabled people who can travel alone and take care of themselves, but there are many who can't, and I doubt many of them sleep with their attendants.
This is more than unfair. It is more than discrimination. It is making money off the disabled.
That stinks.

Your piece on the IOU's struck me as did the left behind post that the system is not or better yet the people just are not getting the cliche, if you are not outraged, you are not paying attention!ReplyDelete
I just had to mention the fact, with me being a drug and alcohol counselor, there are many who for one reason or another, do not condone drunk driving but rather permit the bar drinking and other outrageous behavior, like attempting to drive while intoxicated, do not get just a little curious why advertisements say, drink responsibly of all paradoxial comments, as we have an outright epidemic of deaths due to drinking while driving. This among other things is a little intriguing as to why we do not either be aware or are just a little ignorant to the numbers, as I would like to anologize, if a jumbo jet fell out of the sky every week due to incompetent pilots, would we be even a little bit outraged!
As for getting aware, it strikes me why we do not get out in the streets for way we apathetically let politics mozy along with business as usual, as we see the people of Iran, coming out in drones, some millions, to not only being outraged but showing acivism for fraud and corruption. Something like our political stealings of elections and, well, you get my point. The only thing I see our people getting out on the streets for is gas prices being spiked. If we should feel for the way the haves and have nots are treated, we would need to rethink societal apathy, and deal with the corruption on a local level as well as on a governmental shakedown.
Be it those who are taken advantaged of, we need to rethink our values and get behind the reality of change and fairness to all, even where accessability is concerned.
My point I guess is if we do not care about our own government, as I like to call it, the people and not the lawmakers, we should very well be able to change for the better if we could only get a little more involved by getting out to protest or better yet turn off the T.V. and become more aware of why we are stuck on a two sided system when we can do more individually changing our dialogue for activism.
Myself included, I do not like what is wrong with government, but who is going to change it? Maybe not just me, but it is a start in the right direction. Peace.
Thanks for opening the eyes of many who simply don't see or understand.ReplyDelete
Hi, John. I am in the process of having my sister, Betty be able to go to her daughter's wedding. She lives in a nursing home on a vent with a trach. She only has partial use of 1 arm, having had strokes. It seems like the nursing home is trying to have her not go. I am paying the expenses of the ambulance and oxygen. The nursing home must get a nurse and a respitory therapist. I am determined that she goes. Ahavia LavanaReplyDelete

Judge chastises Labaton in hearing over $75M attorneys fee, demands contracts
The federal judge who unleashed a wide-ranging investigation into the fee practices of Labaton Sucharow was unimpressed by the class action firm's agreement to install an ethics monitor and revamp its rules.
Law firm 'deeply regrets' the $4M fee steered to attorney who did no work on class action

The New York Times reports that Adam Smith's ideas will soon be on the stage:
'THE LOW ROAD' at the Public Theater (previews start on Feb. 13; opens on March 7). A freewheeling approach to free market theory, this 50-character picaresque from Bruce Norris ("Clybourne Park") is set in the late 18th century and inspired by the theories of Adam Smith. Good thing a drama about unrestrained markets and morally dubious economic modes won't resonate today. Michael Greif directs.
Hmmm…. Could be interesting, except this clipping has to throw in the "morally dubious economic modes" snippet. The writer accepts the bad and inaccurate press foisted on us by many econ teachers and others that Smith's morality was one of selfish individualism. How hackneyed and so 20th century! What a shame to miss so much about the man.

The Learning Process - Part 54
Yesterday, I went through the different types of water in freestone streams and
tailwaters, pointing out the differences in the rough and smooth waters. I didn't
mention the Spring Creeks. They are very common in Pennsylvania, the
Mid-western states, and parts of the West including the Pacific Coast states. We
don't have any that are close to the Smokies, so I will just touch on them.
The bottom line to the spring creeks is that it is difficult to fool the trout in 95% of
the water. Where spring creeks have runs and riffles, and in rare cases pocket
water sections, it is possible to catch trout on attractor flies during periods of "good"
fishing conditions. Some of them have none of this type of water and some do. For
example, sections of Penn Creek have a few runs and riffles, and even some
sections of pocket water. In those areas where the water is moving fast, trout can
easily be fooled with attractor flies during "good" conditions just as well as they can
in the small streams of the Smokies during "good" fishing conditions.
If you eliminate the stockers and assume conditions are at least fair, you
will find that the degree of difficulty in catching the trout on a fly depends
on the speed and clarity of the water, not whether the stream is in New
Mexico or New Jersey.
I've already mentioned that catching recently stocked
trout isn't difficult anywhere in any type of water. With that exception, it doesn't
matter if it is a spring creek, tailwater or freestone stream, if the water is clear and
moving slow the trout are not easily fooled with attractor or impressionistic type flies
and anything less than perfect presentations. Blind casting usually just results in
spooking a lot of trout, not hooking them. If the water is moving fast and conditions
are prime, catching trout is fairly easy. Just tie on something made of feathers and
hair that will give the hungry trout the impression its an insect or other critter worth
eating, stay hidden from the trout and get a good drift. The single biggest decision
you may need to make is whether to fish on or below the surface. Often, that
doesn't matter. You can catch them both ways.
The problem becomes, how do you catch them in the fast water when conditions
aren't prime, or more commonly stated, when the fish'in isn't quote "good"? If you
only fish the small, freestone streams of the Smokies; the fast, rough water of
tailwaters; and the rare fast water sections of spring creeks, during times when
conditions are prime (fishing is good), then you don't need to read past this point.
Tie on a Royal Wulff, wait until the fish are biting good and head to the creek.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with it. However, if you would like to be able to
catch trout in water that is fast or slow, flowing rough or smooth, in freestone
streams, tailwaters and spring creeks, during times when the fishing is great,
average and poor, then you are going to have to progress beyond the first grade.
Now that may seem a little insulting to some of you. Please understand that I don't
intend it to be taken that way. I am only trying to point out that when you are only
able to catch trout from the riffles and runs of fast moving water during the times
when the stream levels are perfect, the water temperature is optimum, and there is
a large variety of food in the water for the trout to eat, you haven't learned very
There are people that are quick to tell you that you should go fishing in the Smokies
"now" - the fishing is great. They may say the fishing is average and you should do
well. Other times they may say fishing is fair but you probably want catch many.
Occasionally they may say that the fishing is poor but you can always enjoy being
outdoors. That should tell you first and foremost that they haven't passed the
second grade of trout fishing school themselves. In fact, they probably haven't even
been fishing recently. In fact, they may have not been fishing in the same streams
they are providing their professional opinion on in months or even years.
The trout are out there in the water every day of the year. They can be caught
anytime on any day of the year. They can be caught in the fast, rough pocket water
when conditions aren't exactly good. They can be caught in smooth flowing, gin
clear water in any type of stream that supports them.
The fun and enjoyment of it
should be in the challenge of being able to fool them into taking your fly,
irrespective of how easy or how difficult it is. Theres a lot more to fly
fishing for trout than just "catching" fish.
There are ways to entice a nice size
wild rainbow or brown trout into taking you fly, even when it is raining and the
streams are rising like they are doing right now in the Smokies at 7:00 AM in the
morning. The sights and sounds of beautiful, freestone streams of the Smokies
don't exactly flow through most people's office or backyard. Theres a lot of value in
just being on the stream.
Now that I have explained exactly where we were and what we faced a nine or ten
years ago in our learning process (thats, by the way, still in progress), I will see if
what we learned will help those who want to be able to catch trout whenever they
have the opportunity to go. Those who are only interested in hooking and reeling in
a lot of trout, can easily do that by visiting any of the "Delayed Harvest" streams.
Now there is nothing wrong with that. We have fished plenty of them. I am just
pointing out that after we wanted to progress beyond catching trout in fast pocked
water under prime conditions, delayed harvest waters, etc., we knew we had to
learn a lot more about the trout and the food they survive on. We wanted to be able
to catch trout anytime, anyplace and anywhere. We wanted to be able to catch trout
when the fishing was "poor". We wanted to catch trout from the most difficult to fish
streams in the nation even when the fishing was "bad". We learned to do that quite
We just haven't learned to do it as often
and as well as we would like to.
Continued tomorrow.................

'Creatives at Work' Arts Conference Begins
"The conference will provide mentorship, inform on, career and networking opportunities for 100 HDI performers and visual artists from Cape Town, the West Coast and as far afield as Plettenberg Bay and Beaufort West who are interested in or already practicing artists in the performing arts or the visual arts," MEC for Cultural Affairs and Sport, Mr. Cameron Dugmore said.
The 155 artists (55 from rural areas) were welcomed on Monday evening with a traditional braai at the Washhouses at the Table Mountain National Park after they checked in at the Best Western Suites in Cape Town. The conference was officially opened on Tuesday morning by Jane Moleleki, Director of Arts, Culture & Language of DCAS and powerful presentations followed by Delecia Forbes, Director at the Department of Economic Development and Tourism on the state of the Arts and Creative Industries globally, nationally and locally. Brian Heydenreich from PANSA discussed the performing arts and Bianca Baldi followed in his steps on visual arts. Before the delegates departed to the Centre for Film Makers at the Waterfront Studios, Peter Theunissen from the Music Industry Commission delivered valuable input in this specialized field.
Apart from needs analysis, debates on funding policies and international case studies, delegates will be guided to develop their own business plans. During this week they will also be exposed to visits to the Cape Craft Design Institute's Fab Lab, Gift Warehouse and Oval House Theatre UK performances at the Theatre in the District . This opportunity is not only about networking on needs, talents and challenges but also includes intensive training on protecting the intellectual property of our artists and marketing their products.
The focus is mainly on young people between 18-34 who have difficulty accessing the markets and funding structures in the government departments. It provides an opportunity for sharing the good practice of young people working in the creative industries and networking with others who have an interest in this specific field. It also draws on existing projects that the British Council has run with young people in the Southern Africa and the UK, especially the Identities Programme, the Global Changemakers and the Lines of Attitude.
Ten young people from within Africa and the UK, who have been working in the British Council's Identities project over the past two years are facilitating the conference sessions. As youth facilitators and practicing artists, they are sharing their experience with these young people - as models of good practice, present the work they have been conducting. The aim is to showcase how they built on their work over the past couple of years.
After the conference, the participants will be having a better understanding of how to access provincial government and also a personalised career path.

Basic Submission Guidelines
We are currently closed for general submissions.
We're seeking short story submissions for the following anthologies:
This anthology, to be edited by Steve Berman, seeks short stories and novellettes that adapt classic fairy tales. But we want them populated with Bears! Strapping heroes are fine as long as they are stout. All the stories should have a measure of whimsy and/or wonder.
Before submitting your story, please consult this page - we would rather not double-up on any original fairy tale idea (we fear we'd end up with a book that was mostly about a gang of male Goldilocks roaming the woods and asking one another "Too hot? Too cold? More please!") - so I will be listing any fairy tale that we no longer are interested in reading. Yes, rather than wait a year to hear from us, the entire open period will have "rolling acceptances."
.........please no stories based on Little Red Riding Hood
All stories should be romantic (HEA or HFN). Erotic content is not a necessity but our burly men should be sex-positive about their lives.
Specs: Please submit Word docs only, standard formatting, 12 pt Times Roman at email@example.com, using the title of the anthology as the subject line. No stories below 5k and none greater than 15. Reading period begins August 1st, 2019. Payment is 5 cents a word for original fiction, considerably less for reprints.
An Unzipped Book of Chubby Gay Erotica
A few years ago, we published The Biggest Lover, a collection of gay erotica focused on the larger, chubbier man which was warmly received and one of our proudest collections. This collection has since gone out of print but now we're bringing back a second collection as its spiritual successor: Big Boned: The Unzipped Book of Chubby Gay Erotica. The collection will feature a couple of reprints from The Biggest Lover, and we are seeking further reprint stories to complete the collection.
What we're looking for:
- Gay male erotica featuring at least one chubby protagonist (or adjacent - bring on the big gay bears too!)
- Hotness level: we're open to all levels of explicitness! Our editorial preference is for strongly-characterised stories with a focus that takes sex as more than mechanics, but please don't self-reject - send us anything you suspect may, not matter how tenuous!
- A primarily body-positive outlook is essential; stories involving insecurities or uncertainties or similar are fine, but we will not accept anything with an underlying message that's is not accepting of all body types or reinforces negative stereoptypes. (As a result, anything involving consensual shaming or verbal abuse, though we recognise it as a valid kink, are a hard sell as a story.)
- We are not only open but actively encouraging to stories featuring trans* characters as relevant to the anthology theme.
- No word limit.
- Currently we are only seeking reprints. Depending on our initial response, we may open to unpublished work at a different pay rate at a later date. Excerpts from longer works are fine, provided they stand alone.
- Deadline: none set; we will remain open until we have either filled the Table of Contents or moved to look for original stories. If you see this page on the site, we're still accepting!
- Pay rate: flat rate of $50 per story.
- Also open to considering other media forms (e.g. poetry, art, comic, strip, etc.) on a case by case basis. Feel free to query.
Send submissions to email@example.com.

1. These 3 criteria quickly identify cardiac arrest patients with zero chance of survival who could be referred for organ donation
Abstract: http://www.
URLs go live when the embargo lifts
Three objective criteria can be used to quickly identify patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) who have zero chance of survival and can therefore be considered for organ donation. Using data from two registries and one trial in Paris, France, researchers found that there is essentially no chance of survival in patients whose OHCA is not witnessed by emergency medical services personnel, who have nonshockable initial cardiac rhythm, and in whom spontaneous circulation does not return before receipt of a third 1-mg dose of epinephrine. The findings are published in Annals of Internal Medicine.
Medical professionals are ethically required to perform CPR and consider all available technologies to save the life of a person with OHCA. Clinical decision rules known as termination-of-resuscitation rules help to identify cases where further resuscitation is futile, thus avoiding ambulance transport and its associated costs. These rules do not, however, take into consideration the potential utility of transporting dead patients to the hospital for organ donation. For organ donation after cardiac death to be considered, patients must have zero chance of survival, be legally eligible to donate, and be rapidly transported to an appropriate hospital under continuous resuscitative maneuvers. The most important thing is to establish objective criteria for identifying patients with no chance of survival during the first minutes of CPR. Researchers suggest that their findings could inform decision making.

2. Acupuncture safe and effective for severe functional constipation
Abstract: http://www.
URLs go live when the embargo lifts
Eight weeks of electroacupuncture, a technique where an electrical current is passed between a pair of acupuncture needles, is safe and effective for relieving chronic constipation. Results of a randomized controlled trial are published in Annals of Internal Medicine.
Chronic constipation occurs when a patient has no more than two complete bowel movements per week with hard stools, frequent straining, and the sensation of incomplete evacuation. Most chronic constipation is functional, which means that it is not caused by any physical illness, and is associated with decreased quality of life. Laxatives produce only temporary relief and nearly half of patients are dissatisfied with their traditional therapies. Research has supported the use of acupuncture for chronic constipation and electroacupuncture might have some sustained effects. However, the evidence for the therapeutic effects of acupuncture is limited.
Researchers randomly assigned 1,075 patients to 28 sessions of electroacupuncture at traditional acupoints or sham electroacupuncture at nonacupoints over 8 weeks. They found that the patients in the treatment group had increased complete spontaneous bowel movements during the 8 weeks of treatment and improved quality of life. These effects persisted throughout the 12-week follow-up. The researchers conclude that acupuncture could be a valuable new therapeutic option for patients with chronic severe functional constipation.

3. Considerable discrepancies exist among cardiovascular disease risk assessment guidelines
Abstract: http://www.
URLs go live when the embargo lifts
A systematic review of current guidelines for screening and risk assessment for primary prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in apparently healthy persons found areas of agreement but no consensus on the optimum screening strategy, recommended target population, screening tests, or treatment thresholds. The findings are published in Annals of Internal Medicine.
The aim of CVD screening is to improve the health of an already healthy population and reduce the risk factors for CVD. Primary care physicians, who play a central role in CVD prevention, cite inconsistency in published recommendations as one of the reasons for not using CVD prevention guidelines or global risk assessment tools.
The reviewers identified 21 guidelines, 17 of which were rigorously developed, on cardiovascular screening interventions that would be done within a cardiovascular health check program. Recommendations from 16 of the 17 rigorous guidelines supported CVD risk assessment. Most guidelines recommended integrating age, sex, smoking, blood pressure, and lipid levels into CVD risk assessment by using prediction models. However, there was no consensus on which prediction model to use. Guidelines on total cardiovascular risk differ about when to initiate statin treatment.
Most guidelines agreed on the need to consider ethnicity as a risk factor for CVD. Other areas of agreement included a consensus on the limited role of novel biomarkers and markers of subclinical atherosclerosis, a conservative approach to aspirin use, and the importance of addressing lifestyle factors.
The diversity in CVD guidelines may partly reflect the uncertainty of the benefits of screening. Physicians should assess the strength of the recommendations and the level of evidence to decide which of the recommendations they should implement, the reviewers write.

These look delicious! I love a slightly sweet sauce on meatballs! Thanks for sharing!
Mitten Meals | January 13, 2017 | By Erin@BottomLeftoftheMitten
It's the first Mitten Movie Night of 2017! Woot, Woot. How is yours going so far? Tonight I've got a great meatball recipe for you to start the year off right.
The movie we're watching is Bridget Jones's Baby. I love this series of movies and just recently re-watched the others because I knew this was coming.
The beer: Melonfest Cantaloupe Wheat from Roak Brewing.
My husband picked this beer up and I'll be honest, I wasn't quite sure I would like it. I love cantaloupe but wasn't sure how it was going to work in a beer. I was pleasantly surprised!
Light and not overly fruity makes for a very drinkable beer that's perfectly paired with the tang of the balsamic vinegar and soy sauce in the glaze on these meatballs.
To say that I like meatballs is an understatement. I LOVE them. They are easy, very versatile and can come in many different combinations. You can serve them on noodles, potatoes, as an appetizer. In fact, one of the very first recipes I made for the blog was Porcupine Meatballs and Zoodles, a recipe I've been making for a long time. I even celebrated National Meatball Day last year!
First for the meatballs add the turkey, egg, and breadcrumbs to a bowl. Mix all ingredients together and form into a ball.
Add about a tablespoon of oil to the bottom of a pan then set to medium heat.
Place the meatballs in the pan and cook for 5-6 minutes. Flip them and cook for 5-6 minutes more.
While the meatballs are cooking chop the onions, mince the garlic and mix the balsamic vinegar glaze ingredients in a bowl.
To the same pan melt 2 Tbs. butter then add onions and garlic. Let soften for 2-3 minutes.
Add the sauce to the pan and cook until thickened, about 1 minute. Return the meatballs back to the pan.
And here you are….
From our home in the Bottom Left of the Mitten to yours ~ Enjoy!

Thank you Sasha!

Yum! I wanted to use up some Costco meatballs lingering in the freezer, found this, loved the blog title as I grew up in the mitten state. The sauce was easy and delicious! A simple recipe with items I already had on hand. Thanks Erin.
August 13, 2018
Thank you! Happy to meet another fellow Michigander. Glad you enjoyed this recipe. Have a wonderful day.

November 20, 2018
Use this recipe all the time! It's mine and my wife's favorite. The only things we changed are putting the garlic and onions in the actual meatballs instead of the sauce and then using a 1/2 Tbsp of cornstarch so it's not as goopy.
November 23, 2018
Adding the onions and garlic to the meatballs sounds great! Thank you, Joshua.

The secret ......
So I got to thinking.... I'm surrounded by love stories , brides to be embarking on their journey into
marriage , I love hearing their engagement stories and how they met their partners , to the lovely older ladies who's nails I do with 50 + years of marriage under their belts , divorcees who've been whisked of their feet and started a fresh , so I thought as I hear their stories and advice I'll share it with you , pearls of wisdom and heart warming stories , I might even share a tale or two of my own, although I've been single nearly 2 years and my French bulldog currently has my heart but I promise in 2016 I'll step it up for blog purposes , and hopefully as people reveal their secrets to a happy relationship we can all learn a little and who doesn't love a love story

Puerto Rican Rice and Pork Instant Pot
Today you are going to learn how to make Puerto Rican Rice and Pork using an Instant Pot, let's begin.
Instant Pot Puerto Rican Arroz con Carne de Cerdo or Rice and Pork is a flavorful dish and easy to make. Just like my other Puerto Rican recipes, it requires sofrito and Sazon.
How to Make Instant Pot Puerto Rican Rice and Pork
Let's start with the ingredients to make this pork and rice recipe.
Ingredients to make Puerto Rican Rice and Pork
To make this Puerto Rican rice and pork using your Instant Pot you are going to need the following ingredients:
- Olive oil
- Sofrito
- Sazon
- Tomato sauce
- Diced tomatoes
- Boneless pork chops, cubed
- Salt
- Pepper
- Dried basil
- Chicken bouillon
- Bay leaf
- Water or chicken broth
Now that you have gathered all your ingredients follow the steps below to make this recipe.
To begin, you are going to press the Sauté button on your Instant Pot.
Add olive oil and pork chop and brown the meat on each side. This will take about 2 minutes. You don't want to cook the pork.
Remove the pork from the Instant pot and set aside.
Add sofrito and stir, tomato sauce and stir for about a minute.
Add the sazon, salt and pepper, dried basil, chicken bouillon, bay leaf, and stir. Do a taste test! 😊
Add the meat and stir.
Make sure that you stir for another minute or two and add the water or chicken broth. Blend the content and close the Instant Pot.
Cancel Sauté. Make sure the valve is turned to sealing.
Press Rice and 12 minutes.
Once is done, you can turn the valve to Natural release, or you can let it sit for a few minutes before turning the valve.
Your Instant Pot Puerto Rican Arroz con Carne De Cerdo is complete.
Let's answer some questions about this Instant Pot Puerto Rican Rice and Pork recipe.
Can I make this recipe without sofrito or sazon?
You can make this recipe without any, but I am not sure how it is going to taste, and it won't be called Puerto Rican rice and these are primary ingredients in our culture.
If you don't have any sofrito, I will suggest you use onion powder, garlic powder, and herbs to bring the flavor out.
Remember this dish is flavorful and the more flavor, the better in my opinion.
Can I add other herbs, veggies and spices to this Puerto Rican rice recipe?
Absolutely! You can add whatever your heart desire to this recipe including:
- Olives
- Red peppers
- Corn
- Mixed vegetables
- Basil
Why does this recipe make so much?
As Puerto Rican we don't cook for one or two, we prepare for a lot! I feed a large family, and we also eat leftover rice for lunch the next day. No food goes to waste in our home.
What type of rice should I use for this recipe?
Good question, we used Walmart white rice for this recipe. We feel that this rice works best for us than Goya rice that tends to absorb a lot of liquid when you use an Instant Pot.
What do I do if I use Goya rice?
Just cut the liquid by a little nothing major.
What happens if my rice is not cooked all the way?
Not all Instant Pot cook the same and my experience with them is that as the time pass, they will cook differently. Depending on the model you have you might have to up the cooking time to 15 minutes instead of 12.
As a newbie when I was testing making Puerto Rican rice if the rice is not cooking all the way add ½ cup of liquid and press Rice and about 4-5 minutes. Don't be afraid of your Instant Pot.
I got some burned rice at the bottom of my pot, why?
We call that "pegao" but the truth that it will happen that's ok. This is cause when you Sauté before pressuring. What I suggest is to cut the sauté time to less if you can and don't worry your rice will taste delicious.

Your water to rice ratio is not right for this Puerto Rican rice and pork recipe.
Water/rice ratio works for just plain water and rice recipe in my opinion. Since using my Instant pot and my Crockpot IP version when you make rice with other ingredients that includes liquid you need to reduce the amount of water since you have other fluids.
Can you freeze rice with pork?
You can freeze this recipe and before you put it in the freezer read the next sentence. If you are planning to freeze the rice for later, you need to make sure it is cool entirely.
If you do this, you are risking increasing the freezer temperature. Make sure you use freezer-friendly containers and bags to store your rice and pork.
To reheat your rice, place the frozen container in the fridge to thaw and microwave.
How long can you store this recipe in the refrigerator?
I store my rice and pork for about 4-5 days in an airtight container.

Shiatsu and consultation
In 2002 I finished my training for iokai shiatsu and opened my private practice in Amsterdam. Consultation on posture and movement can be combined with my treatments. Sometimes a few small changes and adaptations can enable you to feel healthy and relaxed. I treat both on location, and in my shiatsu studio.
Cranial-sacral therapy
In 2013 I finished my education for cranial-sacral therapy at the Upledger institute in the Netherlands. This has refined the quality of my touch and it has enriched my understanding of the structures that surround the central nervous system.
Movement-based Creative Arts Therapist
In 2014-2015 I attended a one-year immersion training at Tamalpa Institute in California. In my workshops I use this method which brings movement and creativity together. In a playful way it provides people with tools and resources to maintain their health and nurture their creativity.
I am a member of ISMETA International Somatic Movement Education & Therapy Association.
Please feel free to contact me, when you would like to know more about what I can do for you or for your employees.

When it comes to the task, there happens to be certain matters that need to be taken into consideration. Given below are a few such matters.
Recognize the necessities of your customers
One of the first things that you will have to do as a business, will be recognizing the necessities that your customers have. Depending on the goods or the services that you are selling, your target market may have a variety of necessities. By doing proper research and identifying the necessities that are there, you will be capable of implementing an advertising strategy that could reach them effectively.
Be competitive
It was mentioned above that the business world of today is highly competitive. In order to stay ahead of the existing competition in the modern business world, your advertising solutions need to be competitive as well. Especially if you are in a market such as Singapore, it will be necessary for you to make sure that your retail advertising Singapore solutions are ideal. In doing so, it will be useful for you to gain an understanding about the competitors that you have within the industry.
Find good service providers
It will be necessary for you to find good service providers that will be capable of meeting your advertising needs in an ideal manner. Due to the demand that exists for advertising services, there will be a lot of firms that could be willing to help you out. Out of many available options, you should pick the ones that will be the most useful to you. In doing so, it would do well for you to have a look at the experience and the expertise that the relevant service providers have in the field of advertising.

In a worrying new online survey of 3,000 nurses, over 80% said patients are receiving a worse level of care in the NHS than 5 years ago.
The online survey revealed that only 10% of nurses agreed that they were able to provide adequate care to their patients. Almost half of the nurses who took the online survey also admitted seeing patients suffer unnecessarily due to chronic under-funding in the NHS.
Only time will tell how the nursing crisis will play out, and what will happen to our NHS without such valuable nursing roles filled – in hospitals, GP surgeries and the community. Nurses are vital for patient care and we wouldn't get anywhere without them – much like any other key member of the healthcare industry. Amazingly, 61% of nurses still agreed they are proud to work in the NHS. And for that we thank you – it's us who are proud to have you.
What do you think about the results of the online nursing survey? Are we in a crisis already, and do you think it will get worse before it gets better? We'd love to hear from you – whether you're a nurse, or just a supporter of nurses – join the discussion on our Facebook page, and don't forget to earn money with paid surveys for cash at Opinion Outpost UK.

Biography: P. B. Shelley
Family tree
From March 1812 until his death Shelley was a practising vegetarian. He wrote on the immorality and damaging effects of meat-eating in a long note to Queen Mab which was later published separately as a pamphlet entitled A Vindication of the Natural Diet (1813). A number of people commented on Shelley's frugal diet. Some admired it; others, like Byron, considered it extreme and even dangerous. He used this plate for bread and raisins while living in Marlow in 1817-18. Before leaving Marlow he gave the plate, filled with raisins and almonds, to Polly Rose, a local child he and Mary had taken in as a subject for their educational theories.
