text: I know people are going to be rude and tell me to do a search, but I already have and still need more information, so if you want to help me out, great. But please don't be rude. I typically play rock, blues/rock, alt/rock, and country/rock, so our band covers quite a bit of ground. I could really use a two-amp setup but would rather have one amp and use my volume knob and pedals. I never need a pristine clean. I like my cleans to be nice and gritty, usually just rolling my volume knob down to get them. Don't need reverb. Could use a loop but don't mind reamping to get delay sounds. I've been considering the FTR37, RSA23, and LDW 17/39, and am leaning towards the LDW. I've heard the master volume is extremely usable, and I need a good bit of gain available. I could get my gain from pedals, but at this point, I've determined that I prefer amp distortion. The FTR and RSA have always intrigued me and is regularly praised here, but I'd like a master. I could get by just fine in my band with a 50-watt Marshall, so I'm thinking the LDW would be great for me. I think I'd prefer the LDW over the JJN due to the chimy nature of class A amps, which it is in half power mode. Any thoughts?

provide you with a sound basis in language teaching practice and give you confidence in the classroom;
give you the training you need to help you meet the challenge of your new profession, wherever you are in the world;
provide you with a sound base of modern English teaching that will complement your classroom practice;

Top pediatric retinal specialists and researchers named to newly formed Scientific Advisory Board
BURLINGAME, California – The Jack McGovern Coats' Disease Foundation has announced the formation of a Scientific Advisory Board (SAB).
The SAB is composed of top pediatric retinal specialists and researchers dedicated to improving treatments for patients with Coats' Disease, raising awareness, and advancing research in the field. The SAB is primarily responsible for making recommendations to the Foundation's Board of Directors regarding research priorities and funding.
Inaugural members of the SAB include Arthur Fu, MD; Mary Elizabeth Hartnett, MD; Michael Jumper, MD; Katie Koborsi, MS (SAB Chair); Thomas Lee, MD; Franco Recchia, MD; Lejla Vajzovic, MD; and Sherri Van Everen, PharmD (SAB Liaison to the Board).
Coats' Disease is a rare eye condition in which blood vessels leak into the back of the eye, causing swelling and partial or full retinal detachment. Nearly two-thirds of all patients are children and seventy-five percent are male. There is no cure. The Jack McGovern Coats' Disease Foundation is dedicated to finding a cure for Coats' Disease and serves as the preeminent resource for Coats' Disease patients and their families. The Foundation's mission is to offer all Coats' Disease patients hope and improvements as they wage a lifelong battle against Coats' Disease and blindness.
"The formation of the Scientific Advisory Board is a major step for the Foundation," stated Board President, Suzanne C. Levere. The caliber of the SAB members speaks to our commitment to ensuring that research funded by the Jack McGovern Coats' Disease Foundation is scientifically rigorous and has the potential to advance the Foundation's work to find improved treatments and a cure through the latest cutting-edge medical research."
The Jack McGovern Coats' Disease Foundation funds research to find a cure for Coats' Disease and pediatric retinal disorders. The Jack McGovern Coats' Disease Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit charitable Foundation that was established in 2006 by the parents of Jack McGovern as a promise to their son that they would never rest until there was a cure for Coats' Disease.

Shock and sadness as Norwich sculpture destroyed in car crash
PUBLISHED: 17:10 21 November 2018 | UPDATED: 14:51 22 November 2018
Archant 2010
A sculpture celebrating Norwich's historic textile industry has been destroyed in a crash.
The brick and stone column was erected on a traffic island at the junction of Pitt Street and St Augustine's Street in 2011.
But in the early hours of Sunday morning (November 18), it was knocked over when a BMW X5 crashed into it.
Stuart McLaren, secretary of the St Augustine's Community Together Residents' Association, said the sculpture celebrated the street's link to the textile industry.
He said: "I hope it can be restored but one has to doubt whether it will be very high up on the council's priorities.
"I'm sad to hear what has happened. It couldn't have done the car much good."
Norwich City Council said the column was inscribed with the names of different types of textiles made on St Augustine's street between the 13th and 19th century.
It was installed as part of the St Augustine's gyratory project as an "attractive feature" marking the entrance to the street.
Swaffham-based artist Charlotte Howarth was behind the sculpture's design and spent about 15 days carving words into the brickwork in 2011.
She said: "I am more shocked about the force required to knock it down. But on a positive note, it was an accident as opposed to a deliberate act of vandalism.
"It [the inscribing] was all done by hand and it was the drawing that is quite time consuming.
"I chose a selection of words that were the different types of fabrics made in the Norwich area.
"I would happily carve it again."
The words inscribed on the column included grogrinette, ferrandines and bombazine.
The city council said it was "too early" to say whether or not the column would be rebuilt.
"We need to look further into cost implications," the council spokesman said.
Norfolk police said the crash happened at about 2am on Sunday.
A police spokesman said it involved a BMW X5 which "collided with street furniture".
The spokesman said there was another vehicle that "went into" the BMW.
An ambulance was called, but no injuries were reported, and there were no arrests made.

During stormy weathers ships searched for safe havens to stay until the storm had subsided. In much similarity to these ships, investors on the financial markets search for safe assets when the markets start to shake. What could be considered a safe asset seems to be a never-ending discussion but many points out gold as one. However, no further observations of gold as a safe haven on the Swedish financial market has been made. The purpose of this research is to examine if gold could act as a safe haven in Sweden. The data used in this research is daily returns from OMXS30 and the 10-year Swedish government bond, where all returns also has been denominated in U.S. dollar. Further, statistical model has been used.
The result show that gold potentially could act as a 'safe haven' for denominated stock returns but not for bond returns. Further, the result show that gold could act as a hedge for stock and bond return (non-denominated). The study concludes that gold does not act as a safe haven for stocks or bonds in Sweden. However, gold show weak safe haven attributes for denominated stock return.

They Need Your Help!
Each year,more than 3,000 animals arrive at the Kauai Humane Society, often times exceeding the space we have in the kennels. One of the best ways to make space for our animals and get them ready for either adoption or transfer to the mainland is through our foster program. Fosters provide critical temporary care for our dogs and cats, allowing us to save more animals and better prepare them for their loving forever homes.
Become a foster parent by providing a nurturing home environment for a special-needs animal or an animal waiting to transfer to the mainland. Help a homeless animal to grow, heal, and socialize. Invite a litter of puppies or kittens into your home — maybe with their nursing mom — to give them time to grow strong enough for their own homes! Or, for those special cases, help an animal recover from medical trauma or heartworm treatment. We provide food, beds, medical treatments, and support. All you need to provide is the home and the love.
What do I have to do? Feed, socialize, groom and medicate animals. Ensure the animal's safety and respond to the animal's needs.
How do I become a foster? Complete the KHS Animal Foster Questionnaire and have a conversation with a member of the KHS team.
Placement: KHS will let fosters know what animals are in need foster care. You let us know if there is a dog, cat, puppy or kitten you can help!
How long do I have to foster the animal for? Depends on what kind of fostering you are looking to do? We have some animals who are waiting to transfer and already have their plan tickets — all they need is a little R&R before the trip. We also have nursing moms and puppies or kittens who need 6-8 weeks to get ready for adoption. Other mother-less puppies or kittens may need a bit more time or care. We have something for everyone!

The Magic of Landscape LightingPosted by Rick Rice
Landscape lighting is the practice of highlighting the landscape with light that makes it come to life after dark. It extends the homeowners ability to enjoy his outdoor spaces for a longer period of time. Properly designed, it can make the outdoor nighttime a magical place (think resort) in one's own backyard. It can also add curb appeal, even at night, by highlighting your home's front exterior. Many different lighting effects can be accomplished with low voltage LED lights and the following techniques: wall washing, moonlighting, shadowing, up lighting, down lighting, path lighting, niche lighting, mirror lighting, silhouetting, grazing, back lighting, and step lighting.
When lighting a landscape we can create effects that cannot be done during the daylight hours. In other words, it can be like having an entirely different landscape for the nighttime by highlighting features not seen in daytime. We can accent textures, create silhouettes, or dramatize the landscape to give it a feeling of being at a resort. Up lighting the house or outbuildings can accentuate the architecture. We can spotlight rocks, statues, water features, landscape accessories or focal points. Up lighting trees can create interesting light and shadow contrasts while showing off the bark and branching form of the tree. Wall washing can softly illuminate a wall or fence while shining the light through the plants creating interesting shadow patterns. Moonlight can be imitated by positioning lights with soft illumination in the trees pointing downward. Paths, steps and walkways can be illuminated drawing attention to safety concerns but also to bring out colors and textures in the hardscape. The possibilities are endless and a good light designer knows how to capitalize on your specific landscape to bring out its potential.
Here at Able Landscape Company, we exclusively use CAST LIGHTING products. The outdoor landscape is a harsh environment. Lighting fixtures must endure heat and cold; moisture and drought; rain and snow; acid and alkaline soils; and all sorts of physical and chemical abuse. Bronze is the only metal that withstands these challenges. It is also the most beautiful metal, aging naturally to a fine patina, bleeding gracefully into the landscape. Bronze, cast in sand, results in a distinctive textured surface that withstands physical and chemical abuse better than any other metal. CAST LIGHTING fixtures are constructed of solid bronze and heavy-duty copper, with stainless steel power supplies and marine-grade wire. No other landscape lighting system comes close in durability and longevity.

Straight Axle Chevelle – Lou Lafon's Street Survivor
Lou Lafon has owned this straight axle Chevelle for 46 years. Lou's 1969 gasser-style, straight axle Chevelle looks exactly as it did nearly five decades ago. In fact, the car has never even been washed since the flames were put down in 1970. It's an absolute survivor.
There are plenty of other period-correct details that still remain as well. Bill Ganahl and his team at South City Rod & Custom went through the entire car replacing and freshening all that was there in it's Street Survivor trim. They re-fabbed the entire front suspension with a new straight axle, leaf springs, mounts and any other worn out items with exactly what the Chevy had when Lou got his hands on it so many years ago. All of this was rechromed for some serious brightwork. The new inner fender panels were also splatter painted to match the engine compartment. The front of the frame was also remade adding new age strength.
The 396c.i.V8 was rebuilt at South City in 2016 but you wouldn't know it just by glancing at it. The old-school Mickey Thompson valve covers have been retained, of course, and Lou did his best to keep the car exactly as it was when he picked it up. He wouldn't have touched it unless he had to, but after nearly 50 years the motor, along with the suspension, just needed to be updated.
Out of the four speed, all that torque finds its way to a 12-bolt Posi limited-slip differential with 3.55:1 gears which further add to the fun factor of this awesome time machine. From there the power is finally delivered to the new/old 15×10-inch Cragar SS wheels out back which are wrapped in meaty Firestone F70 Pro-Track tires.
All the rubber out back dwarfs the skinny six inch wide Cragar wheels in front, between which you'll also find that sweet polished straight axle and leaf springs.
Having owned the car for as long as he has, this is far from the first time it's gotten some attention. In fact, it's been a cover car on more than one occasion. In the July 1975 issue of Hot Rod Magazine it was the cover car with Lou's matching flamed Sanger flat bottom back in the day. As you can see below, Chevy Hi-Performance did a follow up feature of the freshened straight axle Chevelle in their July 2017 issue.
Also, check out the scale version of the car that was produced in a very limited run; when Lou found out, he had to pick up a handful.
Fresh off the work completed by South City Rod & Custom we wanted to go and have a good look at the car ourselves. And the closer we looked, the more impressed we were.
The interior is immaculate and appears as period correct as the rest of the car, although you'll notice there's a USB cable coming out the bottom of the dash for the sake of practicality. The steering wheel has been re-wrapped and the seats appear to be like new, but none of the charm from the early 70s is gone. South City specializes in legacy cars like this straight axle Chevelle. Further, they rebuilt the windshield wiper motor, realigned the door and quarter glass with new seals and all of the sheet metal was rehung and realigned.
Any time a survivor like this comes up on the radar today it's just that much better fifty years after the fact. We just don't have styling like this anymore and the aesthetic simply can't be applied on newer cars. Can you imagine a flamed 2018 Chevy Malibu? We can't either.
There's just so much right with Lou's '69 Chevelle. We hope it looks exactly the same in 2069.

I had planned to move my novel forward (yet again) in January, but when my actual desire to do that didn't manifest, I had all these questions.
Mainly, what is my end game? Am I going to run Pluma y Tinta forever? Will I finish a novel? My story collection? Switch to memoir or poetry? What is my end game?
SURPRISE! I'm a writer who's questioning everything she's ever done, and wondering what her future holds. I have zero answers.
In the meantime, I'm going to read a bunch of books. Maybe others' art will make me produce my own. Also, I'm gonna keep faking it til I make it. You can watch this act next Thursday, February 8, for The Ex-Files: An Anti-Valentine's Day Reading.

You are Arthur Morgan.
A lone ranger in the old west who is a member of a small group of misfit 'cowboys'. Neither good or bad, forging your way, your life through the increasingly shrinking untamed wild west.
The game players had waited eight years for. The sequel to 2010's Red Dead Redemption from Rockstar Games is the most sought after and coveted title this year.
Some time has passed since the first Red Dead and America has changed. A lot.
Western rebel pockets of old skool days were dissolving as the western parts of the U.S. became more industrial, commercial, advanced in industry and overall, more civilized.
The game is bigger than big – exactly what Red Dead Redemption 2 fans had hoped for, spanning across five fictitious states of the US; New Hanover, Lemoyne, Ambarino being the new ones and New Austin and West Elizabeth having been dramatically expanded from the first Red Dead.
Gameplay, third and at times a first person perspective, ushers you in. The first chapter is slow going as you get to grips with the game, it's mechanics and you're enveloped in to the story.
Dutch van der Linde and John Marston return from the original Red Dead, Van der Linde having his own gang which you are the Lieutenant of.
But being an ole west gang of horse riding outlaws is not as easy as it used to be. It's the turn of the century, 1899. Law enforcement is cracking down on the small pockets of west gangs and after a ferry heist goes wrong, yourself and the rest of the Van der Linde group are hiding out in a 'safe' area known as Blackwater.
This mountain top hideout is scarce on resources so you must pilfer what you can from any small dwellings and settlements that you find.
It is while being here that it is discovered a rival gang are close by. They have a train robbery plot in the works. Van der Linde wants in.
A few shoot outs and a bit of interrogation sees the Van der Linde group with you at the forefront instigate the last big windfall. The heist that will produce enough wealth for the rest of their lives.
But the riches on the train belonged to an oil magnate called Leviticus. He is not one to be taken advantage of and he hires Detectives to track down and take out all of the Van der Linde members, including you.
While on the run from the fuzz you come across two warring families over Yankee Gold – and guess what, yup, you want that gold. But again, not all goes to plan for our guys and eventually they are embroiled in a civil war.
Being a bunch of rebellious blokes, each with their eyes on the prize it also doesn't take much for a bit of tension within the ranks and there are moments where you're not too sure who to trust.
But trust is not Arthur's main concern as the game progresses onwards and there becomes a time of much needed reflection…
For the most part Red Dead Redemption 2 will see you either on horseback or running about expansive and crucially detailed landscapes, from snowy mountains through to dusty towns and everything inbetween.
Pistols, shotguns explosives and more are your arsenal, selectable via a weapon wheel which you can swap out on the fly. You even have a rope for that cowboy-esque lasso – and hog-tying foes that you either choose not to kill, or shouldn't kill as they might have info that you need.
Red Dead Redemption 2 successfully combines adventure, action and RPG in to one – without a too heavier focus on RPG.
You'll collect up items, food and essential always seems to be paramount but scarce.
Red Dead Redemption 2 ultimately engrosses you into the story. And it's an ever evolving narrative with so many twists, turns and surprises that you are compelled to play on.
A huge game – a game that keeps on giving, you'll be looking at around 40+ hours to get through the story.
Best played on PS4 Pro or Xbox One X to really allow your senses to feast on the sheer detail put in to this game.
Rockstar Games absolutely put their heart and soul in to the development of their titles. The once rebels themselves who bought us GTA (Grand Theft Auto) series have the highest quality control of any video game developers and it shows within each frame, every action, all dialogue of the film-esque narrative.
If you missed the first Red Dead redemption in 2010 Red Dead Redemption 2 is an excellent start. And while there is a backstory it is only really familiar to those that played the first one.

Implantable drug delivery systems
In the past, drugs were frequently administered orally, as liquids or in powder forms. To avoid problems incurred through the utilization of the oral route of drug administration, new dosage forms containing the drug(s) were introduced. As time progressed, there was a need for delivery systems that could maintain a steady release of drug to the specific site of action. Therefore, drug delivery systems were developed to optimize the therapeutic properties of drug products and render them more safe, effective, and reliable.
Implantable drug delivery systems (IDDS) are an example of such systems available for therapeutic use. The application of currently available implantable drug delivery systems is the main focus of this review. IDDS can be classified into three major categories: biodegradable or nonbiodegradable implants, implantable pump systems, and the newest atypical class of implants. Biodegradable and nonbiodegradable implants are available as monolithic systems or reservoir systems.
The release kinetics of drugs from such systems depend on both the solubility and diffusion coefficient of the drug in the polymer, the drug load, as well as the in vivo degradation rate of the polymer, especially, in the case of the biodegradable systems. Controlled release of drug from the implantable pump is generally achieved utilizing the microtechnology of electronic systems and remote-controlled flow rate manipulation through the maintenance of a constant pressure difference.
The third atypical class includes those which have been recently developed such as ceramic hydroxyapatite antibiotic systems used in the treatment of bone infections, intraocular implants for the treatment of glaucoma, and transurethral implants utilized in the treatment of impotence. The major advantages of these systems include targeted local delivery of drugs at a constant rate, less drug required to treat the disease state, minimization of possible side effects, and enhanced efficacy of treatment. Also, these forms of delivery systems are capable of protecting drugs which are unstable in vivo and that would normally require a frequent dosing intervals.

After the change of opinion of the Supreme Court, it will be the bank that he will have to pay the Tax on Documented Legal Acts (IAJD) with which the mortgage deeds are taxed.
This expense represents a considerable amount because, depending on the autonomy, its value varies between 0.5% and 1.5% of the value of the property.
The TS has decided that the interest of the creditor prevails over that of the debtor, that is, the business is for the bank, which is the one that wants to register the operation and raise it to a public deed.
If the mortgage is not registered in the Property Registry, it would not be effective for the entity, since it could not execute the house in case of non-payment.
This is an important change since, although retroactivity is not specified, it encourages the mortgaged to claim an amount that could amount to about 3,000 euros on average.
From consumer organizations estimated that up to 8 million people could complain, which could aggravate the situation of the courts, which are currently already heavily saturated by other claims related to abusive clauses included in loans for the purchase of housing.
However, it is good news for consumers who felt defenseless against this situation and for the mortgaged futures.

Lathe Injury Claim *
A lathe is a tool which can be used to shape wood, metal or other materials. It rotates the material being used against cutting tools. Lathes are one of the most dangerous industrial tools which are used in the industry and they are a common cause of many workplace injuries and accidents *. There are many factors which can lead to injuries being sustained as a result of using a lathe. It is important that if you have sustained an injury while at work that you report this to your manager as soon as possible so they there can be precautions put in place to reduce the risk of an accident occurring again. If it is found that your employer has acted in a negligent manner they may be found liable for your injuries. It is important that you are aware of the health and safety regulations which are in place so you can determine if there has been a breach of the duty of care.
Safety, Health and Welfare at Work (General Application) Regulations 2007
These regulations cover a wide range of topics, including the use of equipment and machinery in the workplace *. These regulations state that the employer is responsible for ensuring that any equipment that is provided to employees at work complies with the standards which are in place. It is an employer's duty to ensure that all equipment is kept in a good working condition and it should also be replaced regularly to reduce the risk of wear and tear leading to an accident. There is also some other information set out in these regulations in relation to the use of equipment in the workplace.
Selecting Work Equipment
When selecting work equipment, employers should take into account the type of work which is to be carried out. They should also consider the working conditions and any potential hazards that could be an issue if certain equipment was to be used. This will help to reduce the risk of an accident occurring as the correct equipment will be selected.
Work to be carried out
Any equipment that is required for a particular job should be located in a safe place that is suitable for the working environment. This allows employees to use this equipment without a risk to their health and safety
Appropriate measures and procedures
These regulations state that if it is not possible to completely eliminate the chance of an accident occurring, there should be appropriate measures in place which can minimise this risk. All employees should be made aware of this prior to carrying out the work.
Restriction of Use
If a particular piece of equipment involves a certain risk its use should be restricted to those who are fully trained on how to use the equipment and only by those who are required to use the item. Any repairs that need to be carried out should be completed by a competent person who is capable of doing this in a safe manner.
Common Injuries *
- Amputations
- Crushing injuries
- Cuts and lacerations
- Head Injuries
- Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI)
- Breaks and fractures
- Injury to the eyes and face
- Spinal cord injuries
- Electrocution
- Nerve Damage
- Lack of training
- Inadequate protective equipment
- Faulty or broken equipment
- Negligence
- Electrical Hazards
How to prevent Lathe Accidents in the Workplace *
All employees should be trained on how to correctly use a lathe as this will help to reduce the chances of an accident occurring. They should be made aware of how to correctly turn on and off the equipment as this is one of the most common times for injuries to be sustained. In employees are correctly trained, the risk of accident * is reduced.
An employer who has failed to provide the correct training is likely to be found liable for injuries in the workplace. A breach of their duty of care could mean that health and safety are put at risk as a result of this negligent behaviour.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
It is important that employees in any industry are provided with the correct protective equipment prior to carrying out a job. This equipment includes clothing, footwear, hats, glasses, facial protection and gloves. This can greatly reduce the chance of an injury being sustained. Once the employer as provided this PPE it is up to the employee to ensure that they wear this throughout the course of their work. This PPE is very important while using a lathe due to the moving parts which could lead to long-term injuries.
Maintaining Equipment
All equipment and machinery used in the workplace should be maintained to a high standard. They should always be kept clean of dust and debris and there should be frequent maintenance checks carried out to ensure that they are in working order. Any repairs that are needed should be carried out by a competent person who has the necessary skills. It is the employer's responsibility to ensure that maintenance is carried out but if the employee notices any issues with any piece of equipment or machinery, they are required to report this to their manager.
If you have sustained an injury following an accident involving a lathe * and would like to find out more information, feel free to contact our injury solicitors on 01 649 9900 or email email@example.com for a confidential discussion.
With over 30 years' experience, Tracey Solicitors ensure not to overwhelm you with legal jargon and can provide you with legal advice and guidance with your best interest at heart, in a language that you can understand.

Yesterday, after the horrible and tragic terrorist
attacks in Brussels, many people to express solidarity, started putting Belgian flags
on their profile pictures. The same happened last November, after the horrific Paris attacks.
But few people realize that between Paris and Brussels attacks, there were at least
38 more terrorist attacks in which 20 or more people died. So, if people were to change
their profile pictures, for each attack, this is what it would look like. All in all , between the Paris and Brussels
attacks, there were at least 304 other terrorist attacks in at least 35 countries, with at
least 2,906 people killed and many more injured. These attacks were all very different, but
there was one common trend among all these tragedies. The perpetrators, the ones who
killed innocent people are clear and obvious terrorists. If they appear in any public place
– they will immediately be arrested. However, few people know, that right in the
heart of Europe, in South-Eastern Ukraine region of Donbass,, more than 9000 people
have lost their lives. And the people in the Ukrainian government, the ones giving orders
to kill innocents, the ones waging an ugly war against their own citizens are hailed
as democrats, and welcomed in European capitals. The man responsible for the war and atrocities,
president Poroshenko of Ukraine, was himself in Brussels just last week.
And despite thousands of casualties, nobody in the West changes their profile pictures
for these dead – their tragedies are simply never reported. So to learn the truth government and media
don't want you to know, please sign up for our channel – "War in Ukraine – the
Unreported Truth"

Did you know not all Credentials Verification Organizations (CVOs) are created the same? It's true. Professional Credential Verification Service (PCVS) is a national, premier dually-assessed CVO, with 25 years of industry experience providing quality credentialing services to clients. In addition, PCVS offers the widest range of customizable package and a la carte credentialing solutions in the health care marketplace, so you only pay for as little or as much as you need.
For example, recredentialing cycles often times have a high degree of variability, resulting in some months having significantly heavier volume to be processed than others. With fixed budgets and limited human resources, many organizations incur hours of costly overtime to meet deadlines, or some files simply do not get completed before the recredentialing cycle expires. PCVS can assist with the overflow of processing recredentialing applications to ensure organizations are providing quality, safe clinicians with patients, with confidence in recredentialing information that is timely, quality-driven and compliant with all federal, state and accreditation requirements.
Or maybe the time sensitive, laborious demands of ongoing monitoring of expirable credentialing documents and sanctions has got your team in a tailspin, frantically trying to keep up with dozens, hundreds or even thousands of initial and reappointment activities, leaving little to no time for ongoing monitoring activities. PCVS can help. Ongoing monitoring of expirables and sanctions is but one of the many package and/or a la carte services PCVS provides clients each and every day.
Whether your organization is a physician group, a hospital, health system, health plan, surgery center, or other type of entity that is required to perform clinical credentialing, PCVS can tailor services based on your needs. Whether it be initial credentialing activities, recredentialing, individual primary source verifications or ongoing expirable or sanction monitoring, PCVS will work closely with your team to develop a service plan that is timely, cost effective and meets or exceeds all applicable regulatory and accreditation standards. Contact us today for more information on how PCVS can assist your organization.

Children's Ministry
At Wellington Community Church, we take our ministry to children very seriously. God's Word is clear: Teach His children His Word. We take this command to heart. Thus, while our children's ministry is lots of fun—our overarching goal is to ensure that our children have learned the Word of God from cover to cover. We do this by coming alongside of parents and offering excellent classroom instruction administered by loving, trained teachers who are committed to seeing the children grow in their knowledge and obedience to the Lord. We are excited about how God will use the teaching of His Word to strengthen the faith of His children!
Not overly formal, stuffy or restrictive, all of our children's ministries seek to combine biblical truths, discussion and activities. We seek to encourage and challenge children to live out their walk with Jesus Christ. Our overall ministry structure follows an age-appropriate progression of development where children learn basic Bible information at a younger age which is later built upon as they grow up and finally assembled into complex thoughts and understanding about the Lord as they enter into their teen years. We believe this format establishes a foundational grid by which children and youth can interact with life and ultimately provide them the mental and spiritual resources to answer our world's most complex challenges.
Here are some quick descriptions of our Children's Ministries

Making a Scene presents an interview with Gina Coleman of Misty Blues
Misty Blue was a finalist in the International Blues Challenge in 2018!
Gina is a graduate of Williams College. She began singing in 1990 on a dare by her co-workers and hasn't turned back since. She began performing in a duet, The Siblings. Gina shortly started her own duet, Cole-Connection, which blossomed to a five-piece band that allowed her to showcase some of her original music. Gina has performed in the Williamstown Theater Festival as the lead gospel singer in "A Raisin in the Sun." She also made several appearances at NYC's famed Bitter End. Misty Blues was a featured group at Mass MoCa's blues festival.

Sadie Robertson was a sight for sore eyes during her wedding day.
The Duck Dynasty star married her beau Christian Huff on Nov. 25 in Robertson's parents' home in West Monroe, Louisiana in front of their loved ones and closest friends.
On Monday evening, attendees began sharing sweet moments from the newly wedded couples' special day and today, the beautiful bride is finally sharing what her wedding gown looked like. It's safe to say, we're speechless. Earlier today, the 22-year-old took to Instagram to share the first picture of her and Huff as a married couple. "Forever, me and you," Robertson wrote on Instagram.
The reality TV star shared with E! News ahead of her magical day that she'd be donning a timeless wedding dress from Kleinfeld Bridal. Robertson's dress was nothing short of magical as she stepped out in a classic all-white strapless satin dress that gracefully hugged her figure. She also wore matching satin gloves with her dress—looking just like a princess!
Keeping it sophisticated and elegant, Robertson wore her hair in a low bun and topped off her look with a pair of diamond earrings.

I realize that I try to start every post with the word 'so'. Bad habit. Trying to break it. I'm starting with this post. That means I started this post with 'so' and went back and deleted it. Hm. Change number one.
I'm realizing how appropriate it is to post this post on New Years Eve since it's an evening filled with the anticipation and celebration of what is to come. The start of a whole new year, and even more-so for this year, a whole new decade. Our lives are on the brink of some large changes once more. It seems that having a baby, moving and my becoming a SAHM isn't enough change in our lives. To add to the major life change mix, Jason recently quit his job. Recently as in the Wednesday before Christmas. We both knew this was coming for a variety of reasons and were both on board with the decision, but it still was a nerve-racking and difficult decision nonetheless. We are still processing through what this will mean for us as a family and for Jason as the main provider for our family. It is a tough process and we are learning a lot about ourselves and our marriage in the process. It really is challenging us to examine our hearts and to prayerfully and thoughtfully look at our finances. It is good for us to have some strain placed on us in this area as we really haven't experienced it much previously. It is good to be challenged again to live with less, this time it's income. We're not too worried about him being unemployed for too long as he already has two offers available to him. We're just praying through what the best option is and what honors God the most.
Through this challenging time, I decided to look back on last year's resolutions. I realize that I succeeded in pretty much all of them. Not a bad feeling. I mean, the praying and spirituality part of the resolution is an ongoing process for the rest of my life, so I can't really say that it's been completed, but I do feel that I have grown over the course of 2009. There is still a lot of growing to be had. I will say that this year's list is a little more ambitious!
- Make a full size quilt for our family.
- Continue learning more about removing chemicals from our lives.
- Sew a garment.
- Fully enjoy the time I have with Jude.
- Build up the inventory in the etsy shop.
- Learn to live with even less and become more open-handed.
- Create a few more free patterns/tutorials (the Krista apron being one of them).
- Start a square foot garden in our backyard.
- Tap in to art again. I miss sketching, painting and linoleum printing. (Maybe add some prints to the etsy shop?)
- Learn how to jar foods.
- Begin consistently prayer journaling.
- Visit the farmer's market more frequently.
- Become more active – maybe yoga, jogging, bicycling?
- Make it a priority to spend time outside everyday.
- Continue to cook healthy meals and make even more things from scratch. (Maybe learn how to make yogurt or cheese this year?)
- Cook meals in advance (and in season) and freeze them so I spend less time in the kitchen each night and more time with family. I think this is as simple as doubling things that I make that I know we like.
- Become better at clipping coupons/saving money (focusing on purchasing items that we actually use).
- Focus on having quality date nights with Jason (even if that's at home).
What are your resolutions this year (and you can't just say exercising – we all say that every year!)?

Dear Friends,
These are extraordinary times at the Winter Park Public Library! We are excited to partner with the City of Winter Park to realize the world-class library and event center our community both needs and deserves. We are grateful for the community's support and for our voters' directive in March when they approved funding for the construction of a new library-events center.
You might know that there are some who are attempting to stop construction of the library-events center. You may have also heard that they have filed a lawsuit to accomplish their goal. Out of respect for the legal process, we have refrained from public discourse on this legal action. However, we can no longer sit silent as a few opponents spread misinformation and display disregard for the will of the voters. It is painful to witness the sowing of division in our community and the waste of our City's resources and your tax dollars on unnecessary legal battles.
Facts you should know:
The intended location of the new library-events center (at the corner of Morse Boulevard and Harper Street on the site of the current civic center, adjacent to Martin Luther King, Jr. Park) was identified - clearly and openly - for months before the vote.
- Many outlets including Orlando Sentinel, The Park Press, The Winter Park-Maitland Observer, Orlando Weekly, Winter Park Voice, Fox 35, multiple Facebook pages, the WPPL website, the City's website and materials sent directly to Winter Park residents extensively reported the park location.
- The Winter Park City Commission decisively voted in favor of the park location and unanimously approved the referendum language that appeared on the ballot.
- Opponents of the new library aggressively campaigned against the site, explicitly naming the MLK Park-adjacent site in their own materials, at public presentations and via social media.
- The description of the project in the ordinance voters approved at the polls specified the "demolition and removal of the existing civic center" as part of the project.
Efforts to halt construction of the library in Martin Luther King, Jr. Park ARE actions against the new library. They are also significant in that they are an attempt to overturn the results of an election by eliminating the only viable site for the library-events center project – and the site voters were promised in the months leading up to the vote.
- The referendum was clear and specific: we must build a library-events center that shares spaces and related parking. There is no other location in the City that works for this project.
- A citizen task force spent a year looking into the issue and reviewed more than a dozen possible locations, only to find the park-adjacent site as the only viable choice for this project.
What we need from you:
Stay informed! We are launching a new e-newsletter to provide regular updates on the progress of the new library. Make sure you are on the mailing list by reply to this email with the word "subscribe."
Remind our community leaders that you support the new library-event center by sending an email to firstname.lastname@example.com.
For 131 years, the WPPL has faithfully served this community. As Library Trustees, we are caretakers of this legacy left by Winter Park's earliest residents, a place that encourages learning, imagination and dreams. We're now looking toward the future and are committed to helping build a facility that will empower new generations of Winter Parkers to learn, imagine and dream in the 21st century. We welcome and encourage your support! Join us today.

Independence Day at Fort Vancouver has something for everyone. The big attraction, of course, is the fireworks, the biggest Fireworks show in the Portland Vancouver area.
Gates open at 8am, but suggested arrival time is after 6pm. Security checks will be at all entrance gates. The Historic Trust's Marshall House and Providence Academy, and the National Park Service's Fort Vancouver, Pearson Air Museum, and Visitor Center will be open that day. You can bring in food and drinks (no alcohol) as well as blankets and camping chairs to comfortably enjoy the firework show.
The July 4 fireworks show at Fort Vancouver is free, but Fort Vancouver is now the only legal fireworks display in town. A fireworks ban went into effect in 2017 within Vancouver's city limits. Admission is free, but donations will be accepted from those who want to support next year's event.
Illegal fireworks are ones that explode, fly in the air, or eject balls of fire. Legal fireworks shouldn't travel more than six feet across the ground. Here are the legal fireworks for Portland, Vancouver and Clark County.
Revelers at the Fort Vancouver National Site will enjoy fireworks, outdoor concerts on a main stage, and many other treats, reports The Columbian. The Vancouver turnout can hit 45,000. Some streets will be temporarily closed, and others around the event site will be closed or under traffic control all day.
Since the 1860s when the U.S. Army took over Fort Vancouver, it's been a tradition at the historical site "to make as much noise as possible on the Fourth of July," said Fort Vancouver park ranger Mike Twist.
Park grounds are open seven days a week from dawn until dusk. The reconstructed Fort, Pearson Air Museum, and the Visitor Center, are open Tuesdays through Saturdays, 9 am to 5 pm, and closed Sundays and Mondays.
According to Geekwire, Canby, Ore.-based Western Display Fireworks is one of the major fireworks operators and many weeks of preparation are involved in designing a show.
Since the show is synchronized to music, creating the fireworks show begins with a soundtrack. Once the soundtrack is received, the team uses pre-visualization software called Finale to choreograph the the sequence of fireworks. Once a show is choreographed, the pyrotechnicians use a system called Galaxis to wirelessly control the sequence of firing each shell according to the sequence generated from Finale. From a control hut on the barge, a wireless controller starts and monitors the show.
Here are some pictures and a short video of the 2017 show:
The county issued 41 permits in 2014 to sell fireworks. The county's ordinance allows people to discharge fireworks between June 28 and July 4, during certain times of day. Oregon, by contrast, restricts fireworks to sparklers and other devices that aren't as explosive or dramatic.
Mean Gene Fireworks was the prevailing supplier of fireworks in Washington — until Vancouver's ban on Fireworks — taking effect in 2017. Last year, the Vancouver City Council passed an ordinance that banned the personal use of any fireworks, including sparklers. The new ordinance went into effect last October.
According to 2015 data from the Washington State Fire Marshal's office, the use of fireworks caused 241 fires, amounting to $627,080 in damages, as well as 241 injuries. Portland Fire & Rescue, estimated that 80 percent of illegal fireworks come from Washington. From 2010 to 2014, 727 firework related fires in Portland caused $3.7 million in damages. The number of dogs and cats who run away from their homes increases by 25 percent in the time period around July 4.
Getting in and out of Vancouver is the tricky bit. Don't plan on watching the show from Hayden Island, though. Beach access is limited to around the Red Lion Hotel and most all locations restrict vehicular access to residents unless you have an official pass.

Croissants & Pains au Chocolat with Michael Kalanty
$165 per person
What You'll Learn
By the end of this class you will:
- Learn techniques to maintain perfect pastry shapes when baking
- Know how to make classic croissants at home
- Master four varieties of laminated dough
About This Class
Long before the movie "Julie and Julia" people have been yearning to make their own flaky croissants at home. Now you can! With the one-on-one guidance of master baker Michael Kalanty. Whether it's a classic croissant or a chocolate filled pain au chocolat, laminated dough is one of the most versatile techniques to know in a pastry repertoire. With Michael, you will make tender laminated dough by both hand. Learn techniques for shaping so your pastries rise perfectly every time.
In this hands-on intensive workshop you'll make your own dough— and you'll use dough prepared by Michael to make shapes and learn baking strategies. The dough you make is yours to take home so you can practice once you're back in your own kitchen. It freezes well, too!
Classic Butter Croissants and Pains au Chocolat
- Light meal served in class
- Work in teams
- Suitable for vegetarians
- Ages 18+
The average duration of our cooking classes is 4 hours, and they are broken down into three segments: Introductory lecture or demo, hands-on cooking, and eating.
The class will begin with a short discussion or demo from your instructor. After, you can expect to work either on a team or individually to prepare the class menu. As a group, your class will prepare the selected menu in its entirety. In most classes, not every student will make every dish.
Learning happens throughout the class, and your instructor will often call out key techniques as they happen in each recipe.
Most classes conclude by sitting down as a group to eat what you've prepared, followed by a discussion of each recipe. You will leave with a copy of the recipe packet and a working knowledge of every dish that was made so you can recreate them at home.
Doors open 15 minutes before the class start time.
You do not need to bring anything with you to class, unless otherwise noted in the class description. The kitchens at SFCS are fully equipped and aprons, recipes, equipment, food and wine are all provided for you.
In most classes, you will be sitting down to eat a complete meal that you have prepared along with your classmates. Since this typically occurs towards the end of the class period, an appetizer or small plate is usually prepared early on in class. However, you're welcome to additionally have a snack before you arrive or bring one with you.
Please note, for our Baking & Pastry classes, a light meal will be provided for you.
We suggest wearing casual clothing you can easily move around in, and highly recommend wearing comfortable closed-toe shoes. Long hair should be pulled back.
Cancellation Policy
Michael Kalanty
Michael Kalanty is an author and artisan baker. He speaks on craft bread baking at industry conferences and teaches professional classes in the San Francisco Bay Area. His professional artisan baking course is offered through the Pastry and Baking Program at the Art Institute in San Francisco.

Thousands lose money through social media hacks – how you could be at risk
One in five young people have had their accounts hacked at some point, and the information you're sharing which could put you at risk might surprise you.
A recent survey has found that thousands of young people have had their social media accounts hacked, and that one in nine of these incidents led to the victim or a friend losing money.
The survey, conducted by Nationwide Building Society, reached over 1,000 16-25 year olds in the UK.
Hackers have been known to take over online accounts and even steal money just by piecing together common personal information people have shared.
If fraudsters manage to gain access to an individual's social account, they can buy things online just by using the account as identification.
With 83% of respondents saying they know someone who posts personal information about themselves online, what unlikely posts could put you at risk of scams?
The information you're sharing that could put you at risk
We're accustomed to sharing most of our lives on social media - from birthdays to holidays, special occasions and graduation snaps.
But while these may seem trivial to you, certain pieces of information are the only recipe a fraudster needs to be able to get into your accounts or pose as you.
- Your date of birth - Think about how many times companies use your date of birth as a form of verification online. With 50% of people sharing their birthday on social media, companies are moving away from doing this now, but it's a piece of information about yourself that you're never going to be able to change, so it's best to keep it safe
- Your current location - 56% of respondents said their friends share their current location online. However tempting it is to check in online at a swanky restaurant or gorgeous holiday destination, don't forget that you're alerting potential thieves that you're away from home
- Holiday snaps - Like the point above, sharing photos of yourself sunbathing on a beach in Spain (while you're away), can let people know that your house is empty
- Pictures of your bank card - This one sounds like a no-brainer, but you would be surprised how many people take a snap of their brand spanking new card when it arrives in the post. With your card number and expiration date hackers can do pretty much anything
- Your bank balance - Ever snapped a photo of your hideous overdraft, or the glorious moment your student loan finally drops in your account? Even if you think you've cropped out all the important information, you're straying into dangerous territory here.
While 'over-sharing' is a big problem when it comes to online security in young people, another issue is a lack of precaution when it comes to the security of devices.
Over half of respondents said they have passwords for their online accounts saved in their phones, while 25 percent admitted their bank details are saved in their web browser.
How does hacking happen?
More than two fifths of those who have been hacked admitted they had no idea how it happened.
A quarter of respondents said their social media accounts have been hacked after clicking on a link from a friend that turned out to be malicious.
However, many people only realised something was wrong when suspicious activity started happening on their account.
This often materialised in messages being sent to friends from their account that they had no idea about, or personal details being changed.
Unfortunately, fraudsters can buy our passwords very cheaply.
Earlier this year it was revealed that login details for Facebook and other social media accounts are sold for only $5.20 (£3.89) each on the dark web.
Getting access to someone's Facebook then allows the fraudsters to get into hundreds of other apps, as Facebook allows thousands of third party apps to plug into its social network and then grab data from its users.
This includes anything from popular services like Spotify, to more niche quiz apps and games.
People use their Facebook accounts to log in to these other apps, so if a hacker gets their hands on your Facebook details, they can automatically access all these too.
How to protect yourself
When it comes to sharing information about yourself online, it's important to always check yourself and think about how the information could be used by fraudsters in identify theft.
With online hacking on the rise, the government's Take Five campaign offers five key pieces of advice when it comes to tackling fraud.
- Never click on a link in an email or text that you don't recognise.
- If you're ever contacted asking for personal information do not provide it under any circumstances. Contact the company who appear to be contacting you by their official phone number or email address.
- A bank will never ask you for your PIN, password, or to move money to another account so if this happens ignore the message and contact your bank using official contact details.
- Change your privacy settings on Facebook so only your accepted friends can see your updates.
- Think carefully before you share personal information. There's no need to be worried about generally being on social media, but just consider whether certain personal information needs to be shared or whether it's better to keep it to yourself.
- Use strong passwords, don't write them down anywhere, and don't leave accounts logged in.
If you still want to brush up on your cyber security further, here are 32 ways you can avoid being hacked.

A legal source said that Justice BN Srikrishna, who was acting as arbitrator, held that prima facie the termination of contract by the Cricket Board was "illegal".
The injunction against the termination will be in effect for six weeks and the arbitration proceedings will continue in the meanwhile, the sources said.
Royals had challenged the termination before the Bombay High Court. However, the case in the High Court was kept pending as both the parties agreed to resolve the matter through arbitration.
The BCCI had on October 10 decided to terminate the franchise agreement of Rajasthan Royals, along with that of Kings XI Punjab, for alleged breach of agreement by them

MILLSTADT, IL – A Millstadt man is charged with attempted murder after an incident Thursday at a local restaurant. Around 9:40pm on October 18, 2018, Millstadt Police responded to a 9-1-1 call at Reinhardt's Restaurant on West Madison Street for a fight in progress. An officer located a suspect inside and took him into custody.
An elderly male victim was located outside the restaurant with multiple injuries and was taken to a local hospital. He has since been released.
Millstadt Police and the St. Clair County Sheriff's Department investigated. On October 20, Wesley H. Reinhardt, 45, was charged with six felonies by St. Clair County State's Attorney Brendan Kelly. Charges include Attempted Murder and five counts of Aggravated battery.
Charging documents allege that Reinhardt struck the victim in the head with a shovel, repeatedly struck him, and also wrapped his arm around the victim's neck and applied pressure. All of this happened at Reinhardt's Restaurant.
Bond was set at $750,000. Reinhardt remains in custody at the St. Clair County Jail.
Millstadt police won't disclose the relationship between the defendant and the victim, but say that this was not a domestic situation. The investigation is ongoing.

1. The Snob
The Snob will turn their nose up at the halls the moment they arrive, and may not lower it until the day they move out. They will extend an offer of friendship to you with the words 'Can you believe there are only 10 showers?' and kick up a fuss when you sit down to eat in the canteen that evening. While they dangle a mushy sausage from their fork, you will see in their eyes the sheer horror that has dawned on them: they have to live here for the whole year. While everyone else adapts to the situation and comes to view the lack of showers and awful food as part of life, The Snob will continue to moan, to tell everyone in earshot how their friend at another uni lives in really nice halls, to visit home at every chance they get. No matter how bad your halls really are: don't be the snob. Chalk it up to life experience, go to the greengrocers every once in a while, and wear flip flops in the shower.
2. The Waster
The Waster will wave their parents goodbye and immediately whip out a bottle of Jagermeister and a bag of weed. They will be drunk before you've unpacked your bedding. They'll still be partying when the wardens decide a 7am fire drill is necessary. They will continue to view getting wasted as the most important activity long after Freshers week has passed, long after everyone has run out of money, and long after you have sworn you'll never drink again. (Hint: You probably will.) Their antics will become a standard part of everyone's conversation – 'He was running around naked on the ground floor! Says he doesn't even remember it!'
3. The Over-Dresser
The Over-Dresser (likely to be a girl) is the person who wears nicer clothes to their Tuesday morning lectures than you do on your birthday night out. They can be spotted trotting around the campus library wearing 5 inch heels. You'll feel a bit sick with envy as they saunter past you looking like they have just stepped out of the pages of Vogue, and you'll look at your own clothes and wonder if you should start ironing them. When the weather gets colder and you've become physically attached to your university crested hoodie and wooly hat, they will produce a vintage faux-fur coat and beret from the back of their cupboard and continue to dazzle. The one day that you're so hungover you can't face clothes, even to go to the canteen, is the day that they will be wearing a dress that wouldn't look out of place at a high society party, and you will die of shame, stood in your fleecy pyjamas clutching a plastic tray of fish fingers and chips.
4. The Skiver
The Waster and The Skiver might be the same person, but not necessarily. The Skiver will go to approximately 10% of their lectures in first year. They will make excuses at first – they missed the bus, they hadn't been given the right timetable, their alarm didn't go off – but eventually the excuses will fizzle out and it will become common knowledge that while they may be enrolled in a degree course, they don't really go to uni. Their lecturers likely don't know who they are, or know them as the kid who never turns up. They might be called into a meeting to discuss their non-attendance. They might not attend that meeting. Miraculously they will scrape through, pass the year, and you will quietly seethe with anger.
5. The Best Friend(s)
All jokes aside, there's a chance you will meet some amazing friends in halls. The Best Friend is the person who hammers on your door to make sure you're not dead after a heavy night. The person who subs you the money for a pizza when you've reached your overdraft limit. The person who will sit and watch the entire first series of Gossip Girl with you and never once mention that exam you have on Monday. The Best Friend is the person who will be your friend in your second year, in your third year, and even when you graduate and are sent off into the big wide world to be a responsible adult.
