Diapers, food, baby wipes. Just a few of the things mom Shannon Sprague needs to buy for her baby monthly.
Is she constantly seeing dollar signs in her head?
"Yes constantly!" Sprague laughed.
This mom knows, it's just the beginning of the spending spree on 4-month-old Damian. Nationwide middle income married-couple families are projected to spend an average of $233,610 raising a child born in 2015. For families with lower incomes, $174,690. In New Jersey, and throughout the urban Northeast, the average cost spikes to $253,770 according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's 2015 Expenditures on Children by Families report.
Connie Mercer, the founder of HomeFront, said, "In New Jersey, the cost of housing is — as one of our presidential candidates talked about — too damn high and that is the major cost burden that folks have in terms of raising a kid. Too many of the working poor that we at HomeFront deal with, spend 70, 80, 90 percent of the income they make to pay for the rent."
HomeFront is a social service agency dedicated to serving the working poor and homeless families. Sprague and her family have been living at HomeFront for about six months. The mom says she and her husband are eager to get jobs and their own apartment, even though it'll cost them. Nationally, 29 percent of the $233,610 average price tag goes toward housing. Food adds up too, with 18 percent of the cash used to fill hungry bellies. Fifteen percent is spent on transportation, 9 percent on health care, 6 percent on clothing, 16 percent on child care and education and another 7 percent is used on miscellaneous expenses. This doesn't include the cost of college tuition.
"It is very, very expensive," said Sprague.
The report states annual child-rearing expenses varied considerably by household income level. Sprague and her husband are raising five kids.
"It could reach close to maybe $1,500 a month for just a family my size in child expenses," explained Sprague.
Mercer says all of the families at HomeFront struggle with the cost of raising a child. This week she launched a Week of Hope in an effort to raise awareness about the challenges of the working poor and homeless face daily.
"Community members can come and volunteer. We want the community to know and to care," said Mercer.
Sprague's grateful for the support and for her kids too.
"You don't have a price tag on your children," said Sprague.

Institutions and practices are social phenomena whose structure and function are historically constructed and in flux. They are evolving, but not as the Hegelians/Marxists would have it, toward something like equality or democracy. One might say that they are growing and dying in accordance with the will to power. The identity of practices such as privilege-shaming is constituted from above and below, so to speak, in accordance with its changing function within a plurality of nested systems ranging in scope from the biological individual to the global community.
So to those who say we should not study the structure/function of institutions, but should seek to change it, I suspect sophistry: using the appearance of reason to make political arguments. I am not suggesting this is necessarily wrong. I just want to point it out. We are in agonistic battle. My goals and weapons differ from the critical theorists who seek to moralize and guilt others into accepting beliefs that are in the interest of the moralizing critical theorist, but not in the interest of the students.

Watch the video below to hear from one of our North West foster carers Jen on her experiences of the role. Jen has been fostering with Family Care since 2014 and looked after around 20 children during that time.
Fostering is a rewarding, yet challenging role where every day is different. At present, over 8,000 foster carers are needed to support vulnerable children and young people over the coming year. Kevin Williams, CEO of the Fostering Network has said;
"Across the UK a child comes into care in need of a foster family every 20 minutes, and thousands of foster families are willing to open their hearts and homes to these children, often offering them their first experience of a stable, secure and caring home."
"Looking after fostered children, many of whom who have experienced trauma, abuse or neglect, can be challenging. But it is that challenge, along with the reward of seeing these children and young people flourish, that many foster carers say makes them proud to foster." (fosteringnetwork.org.uk)
New research undertaken by YouGov for Coram has revealed that around 11 million adults (22%) would consider becoming a foster carer. Could you foster a child? If you think you could #givesomethingback then enquire about fostering today and disocver the world of difference you can make.

Gifts to CEW+ ignite hope, inspire self-confidence, and change lives.
At CEW+, we deeply value the role that education and employment play in one's personal growth and advancement. We also recognize that some individuals take nontraditional paths, and encounter substantial obstacles along the way. CEW+ strives to support these individuals — particularly women and underserved students at the University of Michigan — as they endeavor to pursue their dreams.
Thanks to the generous support of our donors, CEW+ is able to provide valuable counseling services, pivotal scholarships, and thoughtful, personalized support. CEW+'s Victors for Michigan campaign goals included:
Community Counseling
Gifts to the community counseling program allow CEW+ to offer education and career counseling to all members of the community, free of charge. Counseling participants come to CEW+ seeking support as they prepare to return to school, start a job search, or navigate complicated life changes. In addition to helping participants access valuable resources and achieve their goals, CEW+ counselors validate participants' experiences. As one counseling participant described: "I felt very relaxed and comfortable talking with the counselor because she made me feel that my voice is important."
CEW+ Scholarship Program
Gifts to the CEW+ Scholarship Program support returning students and student caregivers at the University of Michigan. CEW+ scholarships and fellowships — averaging $6,600 per student — often provide the financial assistance and encouragement that these students need to complete their degrees. Furthermore, receiving a CEW+ scholarship means joining a vibrant and inspiring community of scholars. In the words of one graduated scholarship recipient: "My scholarship was the wind in my sails. And it still is when I need it. CEW+ is a real community, and it stays with you."
Scholar Success Fund
CEW+ goes above and beyond to maintain the success and integrity of the Scholarship Program. Scholarship recipients identify CEW+'s personalized outreach, thoughtful recognition, and genuine support as key strengths of the program. However, maintaining this level of consideration takes time and resources; as the number of awards grows, so, too does the need for operating support. Your gift to the Scholar Success Fund will help ensure the long-term stability and quality of the CEW+ Scholarship Program by supporting staff, new information technology, and the CEW+ Scholar Community pilot.
If you have questions or would like more information about giving to CEW+, please contact Alicia Marting at firstname.lastname@example.com or call (734) 764-7258.

I was just going to comment about those two ladies. The last I heard there was no way for them to be able to re-enter the U.S. without a passport. Don't know what finally happened. And I can't remember what cruise line they were on to check and see what's new with that story.

silvercruiser replied to Katiekakes's topic in Princess CruisesI agree about the extra beds on the side hitting you in the head. Make sure you get a cabin for only two people.
Question about Sideways Interior on Royal
silvercruiser replied to atdahop's topic in Princess CruisesI loved the sideways room, but wished that I'd booked one that didn't have the extra beds in the wall for more people. I had the bed made up as just one large bed,as I was alone, and had to watch that I didn't hit my head on the beds attached to the walls, as there was very little space on each side of the bed.
We loved long cruises for the same reasons everyone has mentioned. The ship truly feels like 'home' and luckily, we loved the sea days. It's just a way of life if you cruise often. I've spent over 900 days at sea and loved every minute of it.
Getting Credit for Very Old Cruise??
silvercruiser replied to PandaBear62's topic in Holland America LineI got credit fromRCL for 1977 cruise on Song of Norway. Funny, with so much cruising, I didn't get backto RCL until a couple of years ago, but they were able to find my original cruise.

silvercruiser replied to DC1979's topic in Holland America LineI was a newbie when I first started wearing my keycard on a lanyard. Now, after more than 900 days at sea, I still wear one and even have my own puncher to use as soon as I get the card, so it's on a lanyard when I first board. When going ashore I have a small plastic sleeve contining a copy of my passport and my drivers license that I hook onto the lanyard. Yes, I keep it inside my blousewhen ashore. It sure saves time when reboarding. If others want to think I'm a jerk, let them. :):)

So, you're considering expanding your business internationally? Global expansion can open the door to a host of benefits. You could gain a competitive advantage, create opportunities for growth and diversification, and access new talent and new points of view.
But then there are the risks — success in one market doesn't guarantee success in another, after all. Taking your business global can seem like a foreboding task, and it's difficult to know where to start.
Whether you're still considering 'going global' or you're already raring to go, here are a few tips to help you get your foot in the door of the global marketplace.
Do your Research – differences, challenges, risks
Global expansion comes with more than its share of challenges and risks. An international market will be affected by cultural differences, such as values and business etiquette. For example, the polite way to shake hands differs around the world, so you'll need to know how to behave in the new culture.
You'll also need to look at the different laws that'll affect you in your new marketplace. If you're expanding into the EU, one major consideration is GDPR compliance.
Finally, consider the locational challenges you're going to face. Time zone differences might mean that your team could be asleep while your customers are awake. If everyone speaks their native language, there could also be a language barrier you'll need to overcome. Currency exchange rate fluctuations could hurt your profits. And so on.
Consider your customer base
Before you try to set foot in a new marketplace, you should consider where to expand to next, and whether you already have a potential customer base, or if you'll need to build one there. Will people in new markets know about your brand and products already? If the answer is no, you need to work on building your brand and getting noticed in your new marketplace.
When choosing which international market to expand to first, look for those that are like your own. This way, you're more likely to settle in quickly — and less likely to fall foul of cultural differences.
It can also help to look for any local businesses that will be competing with you. This helps you determine whether there's a market need for your product or service in the new location, as well as give you an idea of your competition.
Have a global customer service plan
Global expansion poses several customer service difficulties. From time differences, to language barriers, to an (at least initial) lack of physical presence, a lot can get in the way of providing your great customer service to international customers.
So, before stepping through the threshold and into the global market, you need to have a scalable customer service plan in place. The best way to do this is to optimize your online support and offer as many international-friendly contact channels as possible. A 'contact us' page alone is not enough.
You might consider creating either a regional website — specific sites tailored to each region — or making your sole website multi-lingual. This opens the opportunity to offer self-service options for your international customers. This solves the issue of time zone differences, and with 90% of consumers asking for it, is an integral option in good customer service.
Sometimes though, a human touch is needed, and when customers can't use their native language, they might feel shut off from support. Live chat software is a useful tool for managing language barriers when self-service isn't enough, as some live chat solutions come with a real-time translation option. This means that your team can still support global customers in real-time, with both parties using their native language.
Live chat software also provides an interface for chatbots to use. Chatbots can help support your international customers with simple queries and website navigation, for instant support round the clock.
Don't jump the gun
Global expansion is exciting and opens the door to a mass of potential for your business. But, it can also be risky and difficult. Without preparation, a strong brand and a scalable customer service plan, taking your business global will be a steep uphill climb.
So, don't rush into it. Be aware of the complications, be sure there's potential for growth in your new market, and be ready to meet your new customers. The more prepared you are going in, the better chance you have of success.

Yesterday Previews World revealed Masterpiece MP-38 Burning Convoy, based on the character's appearance in the Beast Wars II movie! Now thanks to BWTF Sponsor BigBadToyStore we have a ton of new photos of this release!
Previews World has posted a new listing for Masterpiece MP-38 Burning Convoy. This figure is a redeco of the Masterpiece MP-32 Optimus Primal figure in red and gold colors based on his appearance in the Beast Wars II theatrical movie! Check out the official photos and description below:
Back in June it was revealed that Takara Tomy would be releasing Lio Convoy as a Masterpiece figure! Originally featured in the "Beast Wars II" series in Japan, this character has received the homage treatment several times over the years, but this is the first time in a while he has received an original design/release all his own!
The "Masterpiece" line has shown itself to be willing to jump back and forth between Generation One and the "Beast Wars" era of Transformers in its character choices. However, the latest addition to the roster is a bit of a surprise: Lio Convoy! While several characters from the "Beast Wars" era have been part of "Masterpiece" line, they have generally been from the CG animated series from the 90's and not the Anime shows from Japan.
Thanks to the Official Takara Tomy Twitter we have a new look at "Legends" Leo Prime! This appears to be a final product and shows him off in all his Lioconvoy referencing goodness!

Playing news catch up, Takara Tomy recently revealed an upcoming figure in the "Legends" series, the Japanese version of the "Generations" line. The figure is Leo Prime, aka Lioconvoy! This is a redtool and redeco of "Titans Return" Alpha Trion featuring a new head and the colors feature the white, red and gold associated with Lioconvoy. In addition to the official photos released by Takara Tomy, the Takara Tomy PR Twitter also posted the image embedded below.
Lio Convoy takes his responsibility as the Supreme Maximal Commander seriously. Trying to maintain the balance of power between Maximals and Predacons takes both diplomacy and strength. Fortunately for Cybertron, he has both in abundance! Today's review brings you a look at Lio Convoy from the Transformers Collector's Club!
The update of "Beast Wars Neo" reviews continues! Today's additions are photos of the Destron Dead End!
The photo updates to the "Beast Wars Neo" toy reviews continue! Next up is the update to Guiledart's review! Check it out for all new photos of this cool Destron dinosaur.

Every time I look at super realistic portrait drawings in charcoal or graphite, I wonder how to draw single hairs against a black background (on white paper though) like here or here.
Do I have to erase the fine line out of the black background with a fine eraser or do I have to leave out the line while darkening the background? what is the best way to archive results similar to those above?

I just got the Technicolor TG582N router from A&A, after my previous router developed an annoying habit of dropping all my packets.
One of the things I wanted to try was getting the "3G backup" support working. This is not very well documented on the internet at the moment.
The best documentation I could find (with the help of #A&A on irc) was the Be user group Mobile internet document.
I tried this out with an old Vodafone dongle - labelled as a "Vodafone Mobile Connect Model K3565 - Rev 2", but which I believe is really a badged Huawei E220.
I backed up the configuration as recommended.
I logged in via telnet and tried to run the Be documented commands. I found I had to add an initial
mobile ifadd as the umts interface did not exist:
{Administrator}=>mobile ifadd intf=umts {Administrator}=>mobile ifconfig intf=umts apn=CHANGEME {Administrator}=>ppp ifadd intf=mobilebroadband {Administrator}=>ppp ifconfig intf=mobilebroadband dest=umts {Administrator}=>nat ifconfig translation=enabled intf=mobilebroadband {Administrator}=>ppp rtadd intf=mobilebroadband dst=0.0.0.0 {Administrator}=>exit
I then went to the web interface http://192.168.1.254/_pppom_cfg.lp?be=0&l0=2&l1=2&name=mobilebroadband - replace
192.168.1.254 with the IP address of your router, and entered the username, password, and APN. For my vodafone SIM, the username was
web, the password was
web, and the APN was
You should then be able to fiddle around with telling the interface to connect, and unplugging the DSL. The new connection should show up under "Broadband Connection - Internet Services".
I'm not sure how to make failover work, or if anything extra is required. Since I was using a vodafone dongle, and my machines are statically configured to use A&A's DNS servers, I lost working DNS.
Hopefully someone else can fill in the rest of the details to make things behave sensibly, and even try an A&A SIM.
I also tried with a Huawei E367 - doesn't seem to be recognised.

BASSSETERRE, St. Kitts -- WITH VISITORS of every destination arriving at various times of the year and the day, and with some of their decisions for what they intend to do while visiting SKN not fully known or fixed, a Visitor's Center conveying information and allowing for an enjoyable visual may be influential as well a stimulant for favorable experiences while on the islands. Tourist information is a marketing tool. It derives a competitive advantage of what SKN has to offer.
Visitor Influence
An image of SKN—what it offers as a destination is heavily influenced by this 'at first glance' experience. Tourists like to access travel-related services not only in the pre-trip phase, but especially in the on-trip phase of the tourist lifecycle. A visitors center affords us an opportunity to design a persuasive and value-added experience.
In the absence of such a critical experience, it's likely that a visitor will formulate their opinion based on hotel staff and brochures provided at their hotel. Tours, leisure activities, places to eat, and places to visit are best conveyed in the context of national interests which overarch that of any single establishment or chance encounter. If we are to attract more event-based visits including seminars, nature and sea tours, sports competitions, and niche world-wide visits aimed at renewable energy and investment, then these brand positions would be prominent and persuasively conveyed within and in the environ of the our visitor's center.
The use of physical models, motion video, panoramic video storytelling, and interactive locator and event/restaurant booking kiosks shape a visitor's vision (and oftentimes memories) of one's journey. Motion video and image displays designed to convey our rich culture and history and aid in engaging visitors toward national brands and value is a necessity to reach this realm. The realm being that of delight and of feeling conscientious of being taking care of—not just as an afterthought—or like just 'any other' vacation stop.
Tourism is a Quality Process
A Visitor's Center is a commitment to a reality — tourism is not a one shot or one-time process that begins and ends when a visitor reaches St. Kitts and Nevis. In the tourism quality process, the information stage, which is usually one of the first real contacts a tourist to SKN will have, is of key importance for our regional and international competitiveness. Our visitor's center will provide the right communication and information at the point of entry and a satisfying first impression.
Visitor's Centers that are well-engineered creates and manages a whole interconnected and closely related system of services and influence established to elevate St. Kitts and Nevis' competitiveness within the Caribbean world.
If properly developed, our Visitor's Center would:
What is the cost, and resulting ROI? For other brands and countries, the incremental ROI has been measured in the 100's of millions in economic impact, with plenty of case study to support this. Developing an experience center is an art and a science. It intricately connects to the marketing and PR process, including the tail end, or nurturing campaigns based on interest triggers and data gathered within the Center. Not to have one or an inadequate one is to not be performing as a nation rich with treasures—beauty, talent, and brains.

It's important to understand that creating a truly new you requires a strong commitment and perseverance that will need to last a lifetime. Nourish your body, mind, and soul by following these tips, and you'll be on your way to living the long, healthy life you desire.
1. Exercise Consistently
The key to any healthy lifestyle, it's important to stay active on a regular basis. Exercising for at least 30 minutes a day, five days a week helps you to "maintain a healthy weight and reap health benefits like lowering the risk of heart disease, osteoporosis, diabetes, and hypertension," according to WebMD.
If you're bored of your normal routine, try something new and exciting like these cool winter sports or these intense summer outdoor activities, depending on the temperature outside.
2. Eat More Natural Foods
You've heard it time and time again, but we can't stress this point enough. By fueling your body with natural, whole foods that are rich in protein, fiber, vitamins, and nutrients, it will function more efficiently. Steer clear of processed foods and ones that are high in saturated fats – as well as those that contain ingredients whose names you can't pronounce.
Try out these nutritious recipes for low-calorie meals that don't skimp on flavor!
3. Hydrate Well and Often
Water affects your brain, muscles, heart, and bodily functions, so to feel more energized and less sluggish throughout your day, drink as much H2O as you can. Chances are, if you're feeling thirsty, your body is already dehydrated. Stop dehydration by amping up the amount of water you take in – aim for 3 to 8 ounces of water every 15 to 20 minutes.
4. Keep a Regular Sleeping Schedule
Sleep is a necessity when it comes to living a healthy life. A powerful antidote for sickness and post-exercise recovery, sleep regenerates your muscles and your health. Aim for 7 – 9 hours of sleep each night for optimal well-being.
5. Invest in You
In a world of overwhelming media, work schedules, and stress amongst family and peers, it's important to take some time to relax, unwind, breathe, and focus on you.
Set aside a few hours each week to do something you enjoy, such as going for a leisurely walk along the beach to watch the waves, taking an art class to unleash your inner creativity, or treating yourself to a cup of coffee at your favorite bakery

The 27-year-old and Wladimir Klitschko did battle this weekend in one of the most eagerly anticipated boxing bouts in history. Joshua knocked out Dr Steelhammer in the eleventh round of the contest at Wembley and the British challenger traveled there in style in a West Midlands-made Range Rover.
Joshua took delivery of a bespoke version of the high performance Range Rover SVAutobiography Dynamic. The boxer worked with Land Rover designers and technical specialists to create various interior and exterior features, including a bespoke premium paint finish which SVO has dedicated to its client and named it World Champion Graphite.
The Bespoke by SVO Range Rover for Joshua was initially built at the Lode Lane factory in Solihull but heavily modified and hand-finished at the SVO Technical Centre.
Based on a Range Rover SVAutobiography-Dynamic, Joshua's bespoke Range Rover is the first in the world to feature the new SVO Design Pack, which introduces a range of highly desirable and distinctive exterior enhancements.
"I spend a lot of time on the road travelling to Sheffield during my training camps so I am incredibly grateful to Land Rover and the SVO team for their assistance. The Range Rover SVAutobiography Dynamic is the pinnacle of luxury and performance and it has been a pleasure to partner with the SVO team to create a version unique to my tastes. I had a fantastic experience in specifying this Range Rover, and the level of design detail in the finished vehicle is stunning, from the boxing glove emblems in the door handles to the custom storage unit for my training equipment." - Anthony Joshua
The 'Bespoke by SVO' Range Rover for Anthony Joshua is hand-finished at the SVO Technical Centre near Coventry. Based on a Range Rover SVAutobiography-Dynamic – the most dynamically-capable full-size Range Rover ever produced** – this commission by Anthony Joshua showcases the bespoke capabilities of SVO.
Joshua's bespoke Range Rover is also the first in the world to feature the new SVO Design Pack, which introduces a range of highly desirable and distinctive exterior enhancements to complement Range Rover's peerless combination of outstanding British design and advanced engineering. It provides even greater scope for customers to personalise their vehicle and includes a number of distinct exterior changes, including unique front and rear bumpers – the latter incorporating integrated quad tailpipes – new side vents, side sills and a bespoke grille. The SVO Design Pack will be officially launched worldwide in May.
Bespoke finishes co-created by Anthony Joshua and SVO include:
"It was a pleasure to welcome Anthony Joshua to the SVO Technical Centre and we are pleased to name him among our clients. He is extremely popular among our employees and we wish him well this weekend. The performance and features of the Range Rover SVAutobiography Dynamic espouse the attributes of an elite athlete like Anthony Joshua: distinctive style, powerful at heart and a jaw-dropping combination of performance and capability." - David Fairbain - Jaguar Land Rover SVO Head of Special Projects

Wall Street has just received a reminder that initial public offerings are not child's play. On Thursday, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America presided over a 41 percent drop in shares of Funko, the maker of pop-culture dolls, for the worst first-day showing in 17 years. On the same day, Allena Pharmaceuticals, a company developing drugs for metabolic diseases, fell 29 percent. Faddish, highly leveraged and speculative firms can find a buyer — if bankers price them right first.
Trying to gauge investor demand for such companies can be difficult. The definition of what is considered risky tends to shrink as animal spirits rise, and vice versa. For example, there were no biotech I.P.O.s for a year and a half during the financial meltdown nearly a decade ago. Investors had no interest in companies without profit or revenue. That's not the case this year, with over 30 biotech offerings so far.
Bankers are well paid to find the right price. Companies don't want to mess up their public debut, so they tend to prefer the top Wall Street firms and can pay hefty fees.
Funko is not the sort of firm that investors would clamor to buy when markets were weak. Its private-equity owner had extracted more than $100 million in cash from the firm since it went private in 2015, leaving its debt at over $200 million. Funko also lost money in the first six months of the year. A robust holiday season could produce a profit, but it is also questionable whether selling giant-headed dolls of pop-culture figures is a sustainable business.
The fact that bankers cut the amount of shares offered and reduced the price from the indicated range, yet the stock still suffered a vertiginous drop, could simply indicate they got demand wrong. Then again, the poor performance that both Funko and Allena suffered could signal something bigger: investors' receding appetite for risk.

RAY BROOK, N.Y. (AP) - The Adirondack Park Agency is recommending a legal change to clear the way for the state to build a 34-mile rail-trail through the heart of the Adirondacks.
The APA action Friday is in response to a judge's decision that the state's proposal to remove tracks and create a multi-use recreational trail violated the State Land Master Plan. The decision came in a lawsuit filed by the Adirondack Railway Preservation Society, which wants the state to upgrade the railroad tracks for a tourist train.
The state is proposing to divide the 119-mile travel corridor from the Utica area to Lake Placid. There will be an 85-mile rail segment to Tupper Lake and a 34-mile multi-use trail from Tupper to Lake Placid.
The APA's amendment awaits Gov. Andrew Cuomo's approval.

Brown Bill Making Campuses Safer from Violence Advances
Please Share:
Senator Chris Brown's bill creating the Campus Sexual Assault Commission passed the Senate Budget & Appropriations Committee recently.
"It is heartbreaking and simply unacceptable that women continue to be assaulted on campus. Our college women deserve to be free from fear and their families free from worry. Predators have no place anywhere in society, especially on our college campuses," said Brown.
The Campus Sexual Assault Commission would implement policies and practices to end campus sexual assault.
"Sexual assault violence is a widespread social problem that needs to be dealt with head on," said Brown, whose daughter is a freshman at Atlantic Cape Community College. "Mothers and fathers all over New Jersey send their children to college expecting them to be safe, which is why we need to do everything possible to protect our families' loved ones from predators."
According to news accounts, there were 138 reported rapes at New Jersey's four-year colleges and universities in 2016. Reports of of other sexual crimes increased also. Experts attribute these increases to efforts by colleges and universities to encourage students to report sexual assaults on campus. According to the New Jersey Coalition Against Sexual Assault, up to 25 percent of college women and 15 percent of men experience sexual violence. Eleven percent of students nationwide will experience rape or sexual assault through physical force, violence, or incapacitation.
"It takes courage for women who are survivors to come forward. We need to match their courage with action," said Brown.
In order to address the issue, Brown is working in a bi-partisan manner with Senate Higher Education Chairwoman Sandra Cunningham. "Enough already, we've reached a crisis level where the State needs to take immediate action and prepare a comprehensive plan to put an end to the violence," Brown said.
Brown's bill, S-778, would establish a Campus Sexual Assault Commission to:
- Implement policies, and practices to end campus sexual assault;
- Implement and monitor the recommendations issued by the commission; and
- Develop an action plan every three years that includes policies, programs, or procedures responsive to the issues and needs identified by the commission.
Under Brown's bill, the commission will consist of 12 members including:
- The Secretary of Higher Education, the Attorney General, and the Director of the Division on Women in the Department of Children and Families, or their designees, who will serve ex officio;
- Five public members appointed by the Governor, including a representative of the State colleges and universities, a representative of the public research universities, a representative of the county colleges, a representative of the independent colleges and universities, and a representative of the New Jersey Coalition Against Sexual Assault; and
Four public members with demonstrated expertise or interest in issues related to the work of the commission, including at least one individual who is a campus sexual assault survivor. The President of the Senate, the Speaker of the General Assembly, the Minority Leader of the Senate, and the Minority Leader of the General Assembly will each appoint one of these public members. Public members will serve for a term of three years.
The bill requires the commission to organize as soon as practicable, but no later than 60 days after the effective date of the bill's enactment. The commission will meet quarterly, at a minimum.
The bill now heads to the full Senate for further consideration.

Why You Should Get Your Flu Shot
The flu is a lot more serious than people realize. Last year in 2017, the flu was the deadliest in the last 40 years. Approximately 80,000 people died, including 180 children. So getting your flu shot before the flu season is in full swing is vital for your health and those around you.
It's important to note that getting the flu shot does not guarantee that you won't get the flu, but it should reduce your symptoms making it less dangerous.
If you're still not convinced, here are 5 reasons to get your flu shot.
- The Flu is Serious
As I mentioned above, the flu can be deadly. More than 200,000 people in the United States are hospitalized each year for flu-related illnesses. There are certain groups of people who are more susceptible to getting the flu. They include:
- Adults 65 and older
- Those with chronic conditions such as asthma and diabetes
- Those with heart disease or with past history of strokes
- Pregnant women
- Those with HIV or AIDS
- Those with cancer
The flu vaccine has been shown to reduce the risk of flu-related illnesses by 61%. This, of course, varies depending on the year and how closely the flu vaccine matches the current flu strain.
Sometimes people are unable to get the flu vaccine because their immune systems aren't capable of fighting it. If a healthy person gets the flu vaccine, they prevent the virus from spreading to those who can't get the vaccine. So if you're not doing it for yourself, do it those around you.
The flu strain changes every year, making it necessary to get a new flu shot every year to provide continuous protection.
The Affordable Care Act requires most health insurance plans to cover preventative care, including the flu vaccine. Check your health plan. Some plans require you to get your flu vaccine by an in-network provider in order for it to be covered.
How the Flu Vaccine Works
The flu vaccine causes antibodies to develop in your body about two weeks after you are vaccinated. These antibodies then fight against infection and protect you from the flu viruses that are in the vaccine.

With its next expansion, Forsaken, Destiny 2 brings a new Multiplayer Mode to introduce some variety to the online experience. Although it will not be entirely different from how the other modes work, it still has its own set of rules and strategies required to excel at it. Let us talk about the Destiny 2 Gambit Mode in detail below.
Destiny 2 Forsaken Gambit
Gambit is a unique Multiplayer Mode that blends PvE and PvP elements expertly to give fans something refreshing.
There will three threats that you will be facing and around which the mode centers i.e. invasions, banking motes, and the opponents themselves.
Before attempting anything else, let us talk about loadouts and starting class before you start around in Gambit. Although there will be other tasks to fulfill, none is more dangerous than the enemies themselves.
You have high-level players and high-level AI. You need to select a loadout which screams I'm here to shoot you all down.
For this purpose, going with guns like The Wardclif Coil, Sunshot, Fighting Lion, Sweet Business, and Merciless is actually wise. Each of these weapons is great at dealing high damage and have a good range.
Even if you mess up your loadout, you can swap it for a better one mid-game with not-so harsh punishments.
Regarding Perks, go ahead with the classics i.e. Rampage, Dragonfly, or Cluster Bomb. Lastly, you have the roles which not everyone understands, to be quite frank.
Coordination is key in this mode and that starts even before the round. Therefore, for the best strategy that goes when it comes to the roles is dividing the offense among two players and the Invader and Floater for the other two.
This way, the Killers Bank Motes and keep the opposition at bay while the Invader, well invades but also helps in the fight. Lastly, the Floater works with the Invader and clears the blockers out.
When you are carrying the primary objective of the mode which is to bank motes and wait for the boss, there will come a time when you have banked enough motes to open up a portal to the other team's area.
Portals open at 25 motes, 50, and 75. This is where the real fun starts. If you are not winning, do not let the other one do so either. Disturb their attempts at succeeding and break their momentum.
Send your most experienced player as the Invader. Have him destroy the motes and with it the progress of the opposition. Remember, you have 30 seconds each time you hop into their area, so make your decisions fast and kill faster.
You can also make life difficult for the opposition by erecting blockers. You get a higher level of blocker each time you bank 5 more motes. At first level you the Taken Phalanx, at 10 motes you have Taken Knight and finally, at 15 motes you have Ogre.
When it comes to the boss fight itself, the Primeval phase, things become even more interesting. The portal exists there permanently now, and invasions are quite frequent.
Moreover, each mote destroyed or enemy player killed will result in their boss' health to regenerate causing it harder for the opposition to bring it down.
However, it is highly recommended to perform such a feat when you are lagging behind in the boss fight.
Otherwise, if you are succeeding and on the last couple of hits, by all means, avoid invasions unless you want to lose the battle because of your over-cockiness.
For the defensive side, make sure you focus on taking out the Invader as soon as he appears. Yes, even the boss can wait if there is some work that needs to be done.
This is because the Invader, as discussed above, can cause the boss to regenerate its health. Do not stick too close as a team otherwise, you risk on getting blown up by a single rocket.
You can deal extra damage with some of the Supers like Nova Bomb and Golden Gun.
Lastly, it all comes to the score itself. The Invasions do not matter when you are on a solid lead of motes. Do not risk it. Things only get close and heated when both sides are in the Primeval phase.
Otherwise, stay to the safe side, play smartly to achieve victory.

A SALOON THAT'S STATE OF THE HEART - BMW 3 Series
Independent Car Review - overall score 83/100
If you're after a compact executive saloon, BMW's improved sixth generation 3 Series is very difficult to overlook. June Neary checks it out
Will It Suit Me?
There's aren't many truly benchmark cars - but BMW's 3 Series is one of them. It sets the standard in the compact executive class and I was very keen to try the revised MK6 version. I'm not a compact executive person (well, certainly not 'compact' anyway) but models of this kind are also expected to excel at family duties too. Which was the task for my bright red 320d test car.
I haven't liked the look of all of BMW's most recent models, but the style of this one is definitely growing on me. The key design theme with this improved model seems to be about making the car look wider and lower than before, so BMW has revised the front and rear bumper assemblies with broader horizontal elements. The headlights have also been tinkered with, LED indicators now acting as eyebrows across the top of the light units. At the rear, the tail lamps are full-LED units with more heavily curved light bars.
Take a seat at the wheel and the cabin seems quite minimalist at first, with many of the minor functions being marshalled by the iDrive controller but when I counted the number of visible buttons in my test car, it still came to nearly 60. Nevertheless, it all looks agreeably elegant and the sweep of the dashboard roll top is a good deal sleeker than the rather ungainly double-bubble shape of its predecessor. Updates are minor: a splash of chrome here and a high-gloss surface there. Other improvements include cup holders in the centre console with a sliding cover and an additional practical storage area for items such as a smartphone, positioned forward of the cup holders.
The back seat isn't quite as cramped as it once was in a 3 Series but I found that it was still a pinch for three and the rear-wheel drive layout meant that some middle passengers objected to the hefty transmission tunnel that runs down the centre of the car. Still, headroom isn't too bad, although if you're anything above six foot you might find it a tad pinched. Legroom? It's no worse than t would be in a rival Audi A4 or Mercedes C-Class model but the sharply ridged hard plastic cutouts in the seat backs aren't at all comfortable should your knees make contact with them. Pop the boot and you'll find 480-litres of fresh air but you will need to pay extra for the optional split/fold rear seats. The 57-litre fuel tank isn't huge but given the improvements in economy of the latest 3 Series, touring range will still be more than acceptable.
Behind the Wheel
I'm no dynamic driver, but even I can feel the thing that sets this 3 Series apart from its compact executive saloon rivals: rear wheel drive. I'd have felt it even more had my test coincided with a rainy snap, though electronic gadgetry makes rear-drive cars like this easier to control these days. Like all of the best driver's machines, this one will flatter the inexpert driver, yet has the depth of talent to reward the enthusiast.
As for engines, well there are plenty of tempting options. At the bottom of the line-up, the 318i offers a 1.5-litre 3 cylinder unit borrowed from the MINI (!). Then there's the 184bhp 320i, a variant offered with rear or four wheel drive. Next up are the six cylinder variants, the 252bhp 330i and the 326bhp 340i. Diesel drivers meanwhile, get a 116bhp 316d variant at the bottom of the range. Then there's the 150bhp 318d, the 190bhp 320d, the 258bhp 330d and the 313bhp 335d. The 320d and 330d get xDrive 4WD as an option, while the 335d gets it as standard.
Power is deployed through a slick six-speed manual or, if you prefer, an optional eight-speed automatic which is a gem of a gearbox. You'll end up driving it much as you would a top-drawer twin-clutch sequential manual, so responsive is it and BMW even claims it'll return better fuel economy figures than the manual box.
Whichever 3 Series you choose it's hard not to be impressed with the suspension. This is a bigger car than its predecessor yet body control is better and that hasn't come at the expense of ride quality. Quite the opposite in fact. Even on big alloy wheels fitted with run-flat tyres, the latest 3 Series rides British B-roads better than it really has any right to. Audi and Mercedes might have closed the gap to the old car but this improved MK6 model sets a clear class benchmark.
Value For Money
In making the majority of the engines smaller and relying on turbocharging, BMW has increased efficiency across the board. Take the 320d I tried as an example. It'll return a combined fuel economy figure of 67.3mpg - and its emissions of 111g/km read like a misprint. Choose the special 320d EfficentDynamics Plus eco model and although power drops from 27PS to a still brisk 163PS, emissions drop to 102g/km and fuel consumption nudges up to 72.4mpg. This drops VED tax by another band and also means that on one tankful of fuel, you'll be able to travel around 900 miles between fills.
This is achieved through features like the electromechanical power steering, Auto Stop-Start that's fitted to all versions, Brake Energy Regeneration, on-demand control of engine ancillary components and the tyres with less rolling resistance. Weight has been pared back, and aerodynamics have been improved to a figure as low as 0.26 thanks to features like the Aero Curtain which wraps the front wheels in their own cocoon of air to reduce turbulence.
Could I Live With One?
Without doubt, this improved sixth generation 3 Series has moved the game on in terms of driving dynamics whilst at the same time concentrating on improving efficiency and driving down ownership costs. It's a one-two combination that its rivals seem quite unable to respond to. Here's a BMW that makes driving fun again and does so with such frugality that you never feel guilty about enjoying the car. Were I to be shopping in this sector, I'd find it a hard package to resist.
