| 7°C Dublin
THERE are worse things in GAA life than relegation, but if it's the consequence of seven successive defeats by an average of over four points per game, there can be no explanation other than it represents the desperate labours of a county in freefall.
All the more so if it's the follow-up to a bad championship.
Played seven, lost seven is a fairly rare occurrence. Only twice in the last 10 years have counties bombed out of Division 1 of the NFL without a single point. On both occasions, the victims might have been regarded as punching above their weight by being in Division 1 in the first place. Fermanagh tumbled out without a win in 2007, while Westmeath departed in similar circumstances two year later.
Now, the maroon and white are in danger of experiencing a second ignominious departure -- only this time it's not being carried by Westmeath, but rather by the more illustrious wearers from across the Shannon. Thirteen years after returning to Division 1, Galway are faced with the mighty challenge of beating Armagh and Dublin in their remaining two games to have any prospect of avoiding relegation. Even then, other results would have to go their way.
In normal circumstances, Galway would relish playing Armagh and Dublin, even if the latter are going especially well. Armagh weren't even in Division 1 for the past few seasons, while Galway beat Dublin in Pearse Stadium in 2009 and in Parnell Park last year.
Indeed, a year ago last Saturday, Galway gave Dublin a four-point start, but recovered to win by three. At the very least, it suggested two evenly matched teams, but, since then, their graphs have veered wildly in opposite directions. Dublin have won 11 of 13 league and championship games (the only setbacks coming in the Leinster semi-final wipe-out against Meath and the All-Ireland semi-final defeat by Cork), whereas Galway's only win from 10 games -- and a real struggle at that -- was against New York in the Connacht championship last May.
They changed manager after the championship -- scarcely the wisest move in the circumstances -- and while the Football Board can always point out that Joe Kernan resigned, his departure had everything to do with off-field issues and was totally unrelated to player matters.
Tomas O Flatharta (right) took over from Kernan and, after a dreadful campaign by Galway so far, finds himself in the unfortunate position of heading to Armagh tomorrow on a 12-match losing run in the league. The first seven came in 2009 during his tenure with Westmeath and has been followed by five more with Galway this term.
Inevitably, he has taken criticism for the sharp decline this year. He's an obvious target, just as it's easy to blame the absence of Padraic Joyce, Michael Meehan and Nickey Joyce for Galway's dismal scoring return, which has been a major problem this spring. It's the lowest in Division 1 and includes just a single goal in five games. Even then, it was scored by defender Gary O'Donnell.
Outsiders find it difficult to understand how a huge football county like Galway could dip so alarmingly. But then, other than in the league, they have been disappointing for a long time. They have won just one of the last five Connacht senior titles and haven't beaten any non-Connacht county, other than Louth, in the championship since the 2001 All-Ireland final. It's a shocking record, which will further deteriorate if they finish this league campaign without a win.
All-Ireland U-21 successes in 2002 and 2005, followed by a minor triumph in 2007, gave the impression that all was well with the supply lines but obviously that's far from the case.
There are plenty shrewd observers in Galway who are adamant that the underage structure is lagging way beyond the other Connacht counties, that there's no proper developmental model in place for the better youngsters and that there's something radically wrong with coach/manager training when three of the last four senior bosses were from outside the county. It's certainly not a practice that occurs in other top football counties.
Of more immediate concern in Galway is the on-field situation. It's a hugely important weekend on that front as the U-21s, bidding for a first Connacht title since 2005, play defending champions, Roscommon in the final at Pearse Stadium today, followed tomorrow by the seniors' attempt to end their worst run for many years and give themselves a chance of survival in Division 1.
Frankly, the latter target is almost certainly a lost cause, but it's important that they pick up something from their last two games. Otherwise, they will head for Castlebar to take on Mayo (who will beat London in the first round) in the Connacht semi-final on June 25 without a real competitive win (beating New York last year scarcely counts) for 15 months.
That's quite a spectacular crash, even in these days of turbulent markets.

Temple of Heaven in Beijing. Probably the most beautiful temple in Beijing, maybe China (in my opinion), it was used by the emperor to pray for good harvests during the spring festival.
I went there yesterday end of afternoon, the place was packed with tourists (it's the national holiday now in China), I've never seen that many people here during my previous visits. I had to wait until they almost closed the park to get this shot without the stairs being submerged with people… And even then I stayed still for about 20 minutes just waiting for the moment. I still had to clone-stamp out a few tourists on the top platform…
It is a truly beautiful place, I hope my photograph gives it justice.

Dave's 3-Word Review:
Inspirational but Forgettable
The idea of bending a life of a prehistoric family to the tune of a kids program is not unheard of. The Flintstones have been doing it for over fifty years, and it has proven successful. Of course, The Flintstones is ironically quite a bit outdated, so what better way to reintroduce the idea of a prehistoric family making subtle jokes on modern-day than to create a magical world of incredible CGI with characters you can grow to love? The Croods does just that, but is it really enough for an audience to love for years, or will it be lost forever in a pile of movies that can maybe produce a, "Oh yeah, I think I remember that…"?
Meet Eep (Emma Stone), the girl with an eye for curiosity and exploration. Her father (Nicolas Cage) has forced Eep and their family to abide by one simple rule in order to survive: Never not be afraid. They live day in and day out in a cave, only going out to hunt for food once in a while, but Eep doesn't see this as a way to live, so one day, she ventures out, and runs into Guy (Ryan Reynolds), who tells her that the world is ending, so she and her family must follow him on a journey to ride the sun into Tomorrow. On their journey, they run into amazing settings and unspeakable creatures. Eeps father watches closely in frustration as Eep begins to fall in love with Guy.
In a way, kids movies can always be seen as a multivitamin of good messages that help keep a child's morals clean and strong. So it is without surprise that The Croods has good, solid messages as well. Among the long list of messages, you can find the importance of families sticking together, love, facing fears, moving forward, light is good and darkness is bad, and the transformation of fearing change to believing change is good. This isn't the only thing that is positive about the movie either, it also has stunning visuals. There is really some great animation and graphics. You believe in the characters despite their caricaturistic appearance. There is beautiful imagery not unlike an other-worldly fantasy (even though this clearly takes place on Earth). The main negatives arrive at the story.
The main characters have a goal, and they certainly run into obstacles, but the goal itself is based in absurdity. At the same time, it promotes the idea of hope and faith as a positive notion. It is more along the lines of a coming-of-age flick. All of their characters have to learn that there is a world outside of their zone of safety. So, a majority of the film just follows the characters around amongst beautiful imagery, seemingly for no real reason other than to show off the visuals.
It does all come together in the end for a heartwarming and inspirational conclusion that can leave both parent and child satisfied. People just won't find this film memorable in the long run. It's nice to check out once, maybe twice years later, but it is by no means an overly-memorable film…it's just…nice. Just try to remember that it is not abundantly bad, it successfully relays meaningful messages, and it really does look fabulous at times. For some people, that may be enough, and it certainly would be enough to the target audience, which is clearly children.
The Croods came to theater on Mar. 22. Check it out before it leaves!

Mug Shot
We've been reunited after a long, hot season in which I favored iced drinks to hot ones. Our relationship is, as you might say, a very hot and cold one! We've been carrying on like this for 15 years. So, as irreverent as it may seem, it totally works for us. With a recent chill in the air, I have been compelled to break-out the Earl Grey tea, and hence, this glossy, speckled earthy guy. Don't fret. He uses me as much as I use him. Take, for example, how I must hand wash him as opposed to top rack machine wash him. That makes him pretty high-maintenance to me! And, yet, I give in. So, here it is - my favorite mug's official mug shot. So much more attractive than any mug shot of Lindsay Lohan, isn't it?

December already!! It seems just yesterday I was excited for the year 2018 and we are already one step closer to the year 2019. Feels this year went by in just a blink. Do you reckon the same? Or is it only me? 2018 has been such a good friend to me, I had new experiences, learned new things, hit a few bumps in the road only to learn from them, checked off many on my bucket-list and added a lot more, made new friends, gained a lot of you amazing followers, and many, many more. 2018 has been a total package. I will certainly remember it as one of the best years of my life.
As we are getting closer and closer to the end of a fantastic year and the beginning of a much more fantastic 2019, all the memories and emotions came rushing to me. Of all the 25 New Years I've had so far in my life, this one is wonderfully and consciously productive, peaceful and emotionally satisfying. I genuinely feel grateful for everyone and everything that took part in my journey, no matter how small one's role is, they will always be a part of my life.
One more month to go to the year 2019! I intend to start the new year with an attitude of gratitude and a huge welcoming smile.
"Successfully wasted 11 months of the year 2018, one to go."
This particular line has become viral on social media, at the time of every new year it makes its presence felt, and everybody says they could so relate to it. But I don't really think so. There is nothing in this universe that goes wasted ever, particularly your experiences and emotions. You are not the person you were last year, and you definitely won't be the person you are this year. Your experiences change you into a different person every day. You realize it or not but every year teaches you something that makes a lot of difference in who you are and where you go.
Life is a huge blessing. Start the new year 2019 on a happier note. December is here and you all might have already started wondering what to be your resolutions for the coming year. But before you make new resolutions, take some time out and recall what all happened this year and what you have learned. Only then you will know what has to be a priority for the coming year.
Every new year, we keep a bunch of resolutions only to say I couldn't keep up with them at the end of the year. And the next year, repeat. At least it happens with most of us. I'd been one of those until last year but this year, I did fairly well. To keep up with your resolutions, you need to be resolute. So, this new year 2019, try changing the way you make your resolutions. Doesn't matter if it's only one resolution but it has to count this time. Remember, it's not the quantity that matters, it's always the quality. And keeping up with one such quality resolution will give you an enormous level of satisfaction.
This one will be a great start for you! "I always choose happiness." See what I mean by quality.
Not just this, there are many more quality resolutions you can go for this new year. Have an open mind. Appreciate every little thing. Be kind to everyone. Welcome everyone and everything with a smile. Have the courage to take new opportunities. Travel to your heart's content. Not to criticize yourself or anyone else.
Add these qualities to everything you do in the year 2019, you will be amazed at how fantastic your life will turn out. I'm not just saying, you know, these really have the power to escalate the quality of any year.
Happy December, Youse! Make it count

Cayo man dies in bar brawl
A teenager from the Cayo District is dead tonight after a late night brawl. According to police, eighteen year old Allen Smith Flowers, a resident of Teakettle Village, was involved in a fight with another young man at about 11:00 on Wednesday. A set of brass knuckles was introduced to the melee and when it was over, Flowers had sustained serious injuries to his head. He was rushed to the Belmopan hospital, bleeding from his ears and nose and later died while undergoing treatment. Police have detained the heavy-handed boxer and charges are expected to be filed against him on Friday. It is not clear exactly what the men were fighting over.

A Queens man with a recent string of arrests faces a murder charge in a deadly stabbing, possibly with an ice pick, outside a busy transportation hub, police said Sunday.
Investigators believe Micah Brown, 20, repeatedly jabbed an ice pick or a similar sharp object into Anthony Teil's head and chest during a late-night fight in Jamaica on Feb. 25, authorities said.
The 24-year-old Cambria Heights resident died at Jamaica Hospital.
Brown, who was free on $1,000 bail in three criminal cases when Teil was killed, descended on his victim outside the Jamaica Center-Parsons/Archer subway station at about 11:50 p.m., according to police.
Cops arrested Brown on Saturday. He was arraigned on murder and criminal possession of a weapon charges Sunday night, a spokesman for Queens District Attorney Richard Brown said.
The alleged killer was ordered held without bail and is due back in court on March 15.
Teil's family expressed their outrage about his murder on social media, saying that his killing failed to attract public attention.
"An ice pick in his head? Did you know he was a deep thinker? Well you put an end to that," his aunt, Andrena Ingram, wrote in a "Letter to the Killer" Facebook post Thursday.
"And you stabbed him in his chest (his heart)? Did you know that he loved peace. Most of his pictures he is holding up a peace sign."
Cops on Sunday could provide no information about what prompted the brutal stabbing.
"They caught the demon that murdered my brother! Praise God!" Teil's sister, Teona Smith, wrote Saturday night. "We are still coming to grips with the reality that my brother's life was taken as a result of just being in the wrong place at the wrong time!"
When contacted by the Daily News on Sunday, Ingram said Teil's parents were still processing their grief.
"Things are really hard for them today. This evening, it marks a week to the day," she said.
Public records show that Brown was arrested July 16 on menacing and harassment charges, Sept. 8 on leaving the scene of an accident and related charges, and Oct. 1 on a domestic-violence related criminal mischief charge.
Attempts to reach Brown's lawyer Sunday night were unsuccessful.

PUTRAJAYA — Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad today said that he had informed the Cabinet that he planned to make some portfolio changes among his ministers.
Rejecting reports of an imminent Cabinet reshuffle, Dr Mahathir said he was thinking of making portfolio exchanges, but he had not done so yet.
"Not yet (no changes yet), if there are any I will let you know," he told a press conference after the second session of his meeting with senior government officials for 2019 here today.
When asked if Jeli MP Datuk Seri Mustapa Mohamed would be brought into the Cabinet, Dr Mahathir replied: "No new ministers."
Asked if there was a request from Cabinet members to change portfolios, Dr Mahathir said there was no such request.
On whether he was satisfied with the performance of his Cabinet members, he replied: "I think they have more than one year experience, and they are now more able than when they started."
According to several media reports today, a Cabinet reshuffle is expected anytime soon, and the names of several leaders, including Mustapa, were mentioned.

Due to technological advancements in Big Data, Artificial Intelligence and Blockchain more and more FinTech solutions point out how profit margins can be increased in fund distribution through digital asset management.
Although the global financial industry has been digitizing its processes for some time, the development in traditional asset management has so far been little visible. In contrast to payment transactions (Apple Pay), credit cards (Revolut) or mortgages (Hypomat), the influence of technological change in asset management has so far remained modest.
According to a study conducted by PwC in October 2018, the margins of asset managers fell by almost nine percent between 2012 and 2017 and should fall by a further 20 percent by 2025. Increased competition, rising regulatory costs and the growth of passive investment products (ETFs and index funds) with their low fees are in charge of this development.
This situation is the reason why new forms of cooperation are being sought, for example in the form of cooperation with independent digital asset managers, so-called Robo Advisors. The collaboration between digital asset managers and established asset managers shows that a fund provider can open up new markets without compromising existing institutional channels.
Thanks to FinTech cooperations, fund providers can use their resources specifically in the more intensive advisory process for larger private and institutional clients. Both parties can benefit from this, as they can fully exploit their respective core competencies and make profitable use of them. Fund providers find an efficient and cost-effective distribution channel for end investors in cooperation with digital asset managers, and the Robo Advisor benefits from tried and tested model portfolios, which increases the credibility of the digital platform. A true win-win-win situation that benefits investors, asset managers and the digital platform alike.
Asset management is facing a "disruption" of proven models through new technologies. So, the only way to address these challenges is to take the initiative to lead change, which means investing in innovative technologies. Established asset managers should think about cooperations with Fintech companies, especially in order to acquire technological know-how and benefit from digital asset management opportunities.

I'm not sure this can be counted as being of equal substance with other issues in this series. But it has been noticeable. The forced closure of a single US spam emitting enterprise has dramatically reduced the amount of email spam circulating - and the effects are still evident months later.
Spam is more than an annoyance, it is also a resource burner at a time we need to conserve resources. It's a surprise that the emission would turn out to be largely generated from one source. Possibility: they passed through the spammer community such an attractive offer of services that 80% of the business came their way. Another possibility: they offered massively bulked services to a relatively small bunch of miscreants. I cannot tell, but there were certainly several quite distinct lines of "service" that dried up. Most comprised offers of (Indian-sourced) pharmaceuticals that were either pirates of real medicines (I presume) or out and out snake oil. There seemed to be several separate variants on this. Another line that largely dried up purported to be Russian women offering themselves in the home of a better life overseas. That could well be a variant on the Nigerian scam though.
I should note that I have two email addresses. I don't know how each got infected - I'd sorely love to know about the second infection, since I was trying to keep it clear. Possibly I registered to a relatively legit website with lax security that allowed itself to be scraped for email addresses.
The first address dates back at least 10 years, and was mainly infected by poorly-grammared Nigerian scam offers. These died over time, replaced by a smattering of miscellaneous "offers". It attracts hardly any spam right now, so erstwhile spammers must have either not onsold my address, or the remnants were hooked to that US server.
On my main, newer email, they're mainly tempting me to click on a link. I don't know where they lead, since I don't know that my security protects me sufficiently from link-clicks. And there's only three a week now, effectively taken care of by SpamFighter, but quite frankly overwhelmed by the number of tech mailouts that I haven't bothered unsubscribing from. But at least I have that choice.
Update 13-Jan-09: The spam is back in volume. It took a matter of months to ramp up again. It's unclear whether it's one source that has finally found a new home, or whether it involves a distinct community of spammers which has collectively found a new home.

Michelle Obama Hilariously Breaks Down Why Melania Trump's Inauguration Gift Exchange Appeared So Awkward
The former FLOTUS also explained to Ellen Degeneres how Barack stepped in and saved the day.
By the time Mo'ne Davis dug her cleats into the mound at Lamade Stadium in South Williamsport, Pa., on Wednesday night (Aug. 20), she was already a national sports star, teetering on becoming a household name to even non-baseball fans.
The fact that Davis and her Little League team, the Taney Dragons (of Philadelphia), ran into a buzz saw in losing to Mountain Ridge (of Las Vegas), 8-1, on Wednesday and Jackie Robinson West All Stars (of Chicago), 6-5, on Thursday almost pales in comparison to what the 13-year-old girl has accomplished with her team the past couple of weeks.
After using her 70-mph fastball to clinch the Mid-Atlantic championship with a shutout two weekends ago, making Taney the first Little League team from Philadelphia to ever make the World Series, Davis did it again days later, garnering the national spotlight for becoming the first girl to throw a shutout in World Series history last Friday (Aug. 15).
Setting that feat against the boys with unwavering confidence, Davis has become the new face for girl power across the country.
"Well, about girl power…girls are just better than boys," Davis told BET.com with a smile. "I gotta keep girls up there on the same level of boys like, 'You could do anything a boy can do.'"
In tossing the shutout last week, the 5-4, 111-pound pitcher instantly received Twitter shoutouts from such baseball all-stars as Andrew McCutchen, Mike Trout and Matt Kemp, who even questioned his followers about where he could purchase a Davis jersey. Basketball superstars Magic Johnson and Kevin Durant publicly praised the teenager as well…and that was just the beginning of her newfound fame.
By the time Tuesday had rolled around and Taney was one step closer to making the Little League World Series U.S. championship game, Davis got word that she would be gracing the cover of Sports Illustrated. Later that same day, she did national feature interviews for ESPN and BET.com.
Just before taking the mound Wednesday night, Davis and Taney received well wishes from their hometown Philadelphia Phillies and their star Jimmy Rollins, who tweeted: "#TeamTaney get that W tonight! Mo'Ne do your thing tonight girl!!"
She even got some Twitter love from Lil Wayne, who proclaimed, "YMCMB-Young Mo'Ne Cash Mo'Ne Baseball," in support of the young star.
Wednesday night's game received the highest television ratings for a Little League World Series game in the history of the tournament, with a 3.4 overnight rating. Lamade Stadium counted 34,128 fans in attendance, which was nearly 10,000 more than showed up at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia earlier that same day to see the struggling Phillies host the Seattle Mariners.
Although Davis struggled in the loss Wednesday, allowing three runs on six hits with six strikeouts and one walk in 2 1/3 innings, Taney still had a chance. However, it failed to defeat Jackie Robinson West in an elimination game Thursday night. Jackie Robinson West will face Mountain Ridge in the U.S. championship game Saturday.
Despite the shortcoming, Davis's performance and spirit captured the heart and imagination of the country. She has helped transcend baseball by pushing young girls into the youth sports spotlight, letting them know that it's okay to throw like a girl after all.
"I think absolutely the best aspect of this is the role model aspect for little girls," Taney manager Alex Rice said. "A little girl from the other night was up at the press conference on her dad's shoulders with a sign that said, 'I want to throw like a girl.' That kind of thing is really inspiring."
Already an inspiration, Davis wants to inspire young girls even more and push the envelope further in the process. The eighth grader wants to prove that she's good enough to earn a roster spot on a Division I college men's baseball team and dare she say…a Major League Baseball team.
"It would be really, really cool to be one of the girls that's pushing that forward," she said.
In the more immediate sense, though, she'd like to see more girls participating in the Little League World Series.
"Every team here should have a girl on their team, so then it would be better and hopefully they'll build another dorm for girls to stay in and get to know each other," Davis commented.
That's exactly what's she's been doing with Canada's Emma March, the 17th girl to ever play in the Little League World Series.
"We asked to stay in the same house," Davis said of her and March. "We talk a lot. We talk during the day and we talk a lot at night. We're becoming close friends."
The girl time is likely a nice escape from the norm for Davis, but that's not to say she doesn't appreciate her time with the boys.
On Tuesday, before Taney took on Mountain Ridge in the U.S. semifinals, the Philadelphia team was trying to unwind. Several Taney players were playing ping-pong at South Williamsport's rec room—in which no parents were allowed—while others played video games.
When a handful of Taney players stepped outside the rec room on the grassy patch known as the Creighton J. Hale International Grove, many insisted "ladies first," urging Mo'ne Davis's to speak with a reporter before them.
In a way, the chivalrous gesture was the opposite of how Taney's boys have treated Davis through the years—like one of the fellas.
"Being Mo'ne's teammate is treating her like one of the guys," said Taney second baseman Jahli Hendricks. "She doesn't like to be treated separately. She likes to be treated just like us."

Airline, luxury stocks hit hard by Paris attacksBloombergLast Friday's terrorist attacks on Paris have seen markets respond with a broad-based move towards risk-aversion, but sectors linked to tourism and consumer spending have been hit the hardest. According to Mirabaud analyst John Plassard, "hotels, restaurants, travel agencies as well as other companies in the tourist industry will see a drop in demand, in France but also in other countries targeted by Islamic State". The list of countries potentially targeted by IS, of course, is a long one as Russia, the US, and many European states are involved in the struggle against the terror group in Syria and Iraq.

A summary of recognised walks at Braes –
- The B883 road from the bridge over the River Varragill on the south edge of Loch Portree runs through the area and is part of the unofficial (not signed) Skye Trail. Bikers will have to return the same way.
- The Skye Trail continues off road from Peinachorrain along the side of Loch Sligachan to the campsite and hotel at the head of the loch. The route follows an old drove road.
- South of Peinmore, a short circular walk has been created through the old Gleannan wood and its township ruins.
- Ben Tianavaig (413m) gives outstanding views of Skye, Raasay and distant mainland hills, starting from Camustianavaig.
- Braes Village Hall is a good starting point for the Coille Iosal woodland walk, part of which is alongside the Ollach River and its waterfalls.
- A path on the south edge of Gedintailor takes you to the shore, beach and An Aird.
The point includes the remains of Dunan an Aisilidh. A return loop around the edge of the crofts will bring you back to the road in Balmeanach. Boats occasionally drop anchor overnight in the bay, Camas a Mhor-bheoil.
Or just stop at the beach…
Other places can be explored by using a good map and a sensible approach to access. Ideas include:
- A short walk to the shore next to the old church & school at Upper Ollach, which was used by the Napier Commission in 1883 (see the History page).
- North of Braes Village Hall, via a stile, a short trip to the coastal edge to find the remains of Dun Vlarveg.
- Alongside the Varragill River from the Braes Road bridge into Portree Bay and ending opposite the Aros centre on the A87. Be aware of tide levels.
- Devise a route to the shore at Camus Ban via the road from Peinmore to Penifiler.
- Take a look at the old settlements above Peinchorran and/or make your way to the top of Ben Lee.
- Make your own way along the shore/cliff edges from Peinchorran to Balmeanach Bay and the remnants of the old fishing station.
- The Isle of Raasay is a big part of the view from Braes and the ferry leaves from Sconser on the A87. If you want to leave the car behind, there are plenty of paths when you get off the pier in Churchton Bay.

E-cigarettes can contain toxic ingredients that are especially harmful to teens
More and more teenagers are using e-cigarettes, and many of their parents assume they are less dangerous than traditional cigarettes so they don't need to worry. But they are sorely wrong, the Massachusetts Department of Public Health warned. To help parents better understand what vaping is and the harm it poses, state health officials have launched a statewide campaign, "The New Look of Nicotine Addiction," to arm parents with information they can use to talk to their kids about e-cigarettes.
Contrary to what most people believe, these products – also known as e-cigs, e-hookahs, mods, vape pens, vapes, tank systems, JUULs and electronic nicotine delivery systems – contain more than just flavored water. They can be filled with e-liquids, or e-liquids can be added to the devices. These e-liquids often consist of propylene glycol, glycerin, nicotine, and flavorings that typically appeal to teens.
In a letter to The Salem News, Northeast Tobacco Free Community Partnership Director Diane Knight said e-liquids can also contain toxic ingredients.
For example, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the aerosol – or vapor – produced by e-cigarettes can contain harmful substances like nicotine, a highly addictive stimulant; flavorings like diacetyl, which can cause the serious lung disease bronchiolitis obliterans, also known as popcorn lung; volatile organ compounds (VOCs) like benzene, which has been linked to blood cancers like leukemia; and heavy metals like nickel, tin and lead.
Knight offered these tips for talking to kids about vaping: "First, be patient and ready to listen. Know that there is no perfect talk and consider your talks to be learning opportunities for both you and your young person. You may have some facts, but concede that you don't have all the answers. This will go a long way to keep your kids from going on the defensive. If you show genuine curiosity about what your child knows and experiences you may learn a lot and be better able to gauge the vaping issues in your community and what you can do about them."

The Best Baguette in Paris
Ahhh, what I wouldn't give for a good baguette...
Every year there is a contest in Paris to see who makes the best baguette. The video below is of this year's winner. The video is in French, so apologies for those that don't speak the language. And worse, no subtitles.
But I think you'll get the gist of it, and the passion of this man.
He is of Senegalese decent. Growing up his father worked in a French bakery, and as a kid at night after closing he would go into the bakery with his brothers and play. When he graduated high school he was asked what he wanted to do for a living and he said baker!
He also talks about the art of baking, the components that make a perfect baguette, how it is a constant "creation" and the magic of bread and what you can do with such basic ingredients, the art of finding the exact right ingredients, and how every day you need to adjust to the temperature, humidity and other conditions.
Don't you wish this bakery was around the corner from where you lived?
Bon appetit,
Le Capitaine
P.S. Thanks Fabrice!

Interaction Between The Belousov-Zhabotinsky Reaction And Lipid Membranes: A Kinetic Investigation
Free (open access)

F. M. Pulselli, M. Catalucci, F. Rossi & N. Marchettini
Far-from-equilibrium oscillating chemical reactions are among the simplest systems showing complex behaviours and emergent properties, when coupled with diffusion they can behave as excitable media and support impulse and wave propagation. The reaction–diffusion approach has been widely employed to explain patterns generation in a great array of biological processes, like limb development and skin pattering. During the past years our group has been studying the mechanisms of pattern formation and wave propagation occurring when the well known Belousov- Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction is carried out in membranes, i.e. the lamellar phases generated by the. 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocoline (DPPC). Many kinetic parameters of the BZ reaction were found to be influenced by the addition of increasing amounts of DPPC. The aggregates in solution are likely capable of interacting with many of the BZ intermediates, like radicals and molecular bromine. In this paper we will illustrate the results coming from a kinetic study on the temporal and spatio-temporal modifications (increase in amplitude of oscillations, increase of the lifespan of the oscillatory regime, etc.) induced on the BZ reaction by the presence of DPPC. Keyword: Belousov-Zhabotinsky, biomimetics membrane, chemicals oscillators, thermodynamics in nature. 1 Introduction The Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction is the most famous and thoroughly studied chemical oscillator. Initially proposed as a simplified scheme of a

Rollco Bulgaria uses only certified materials for making cash register rolls. It has been proved that hi-tech paper does not emit dust and fibrils, thus making your machine last longer. All rolls are rolled on a solid PVC spool, which prevents the deformation of the roll or its displacement during performance.
The even compactness of winding from beginning to end, together with the precise length are ensured by a digital control system.
Each roll made in the Rollco plant bears marking of the exact length in meters, for instance 28 m. where deviation is guaranteed to range between +1/+2 m. This is one of the criteria which enables the client to recognize the original roll from the widely spread "fakes". The latter do not bear the size marking and the end of the roll is manually sticky taped.
You will find out for sure that our rolls are longer than all other rolls on the market which means that changing them is considerably more seldom.
Have a look at the brochure and get to know all the characteristics that will enable you to distinguish the original rolls from the fakes.

Tradeshift Closes 2014 With Year-over-Year Network Transaction Growth of 600%
Tradeshift, the fastest growing business transaction and collaboration platform, today announced record year-over-year network and revenue growth. The company's growth is attributable to the rapid global adoption of its cloud-based platform that automates and simplifies the accounts payable, procure-to-pay (P2P) and transaction processes of global enterprises and their supply chains. Twenty-five of the Fortune 1000 companies have now adopted Tradeshift, including well-known global brands such as Archer Daniels Midlands (ADM), DHL, CBRE, Kuehne + Nagel, and the National Health Service (NHS).
In response to the growing global adoption of its platform, which now comprises a network of 500,000 connected businesses, and the need to provide localized products, Tradeshift opened offices in London, Paris, Tokyo and Munich in 2014. The company now employs more than 200 people around the world to work locally with customers, suppliers and alliance partners. It has also rapidly expanded its research and development facility near Shanghai, building broad base alliances in China in the process.
Additionally, earlier in the year, Tradeshift announced $75 million in Series C funding from Scentan Ventures, bringing the company's total funding to date to $112 million, to accelerate corporate expansion.
"Our vision is to bring businesses together and fix the broken, disconnected, paper-based procure-to-pay process," said Christian Lanng, CEO and co-founder of Tradeshift. "We are helping large and small businesses participate in a global economy in ways that were previously not possible. We've seen our network transaction volume grow by 600 percent since this time last year. Suppliers love Tradeshift and that's a big benefit for our enterprise customers and their return on investment."
The launch of Tradeshift Studio in May 2014 allows third-party developers to build applications for Tradeshift that are easy to use and integrate with any ERP system. This has helped accelerate adoption of Tradeshift's platform, which boasts the fastest growing network of connected businesses in global procure-to-pay innovation.

I was fortunate to have had the most awesome volunteers throughout my tenure as the RD of Trans Iowa. One of those people was named Craig Groseth. I met Craig at Odin's Revenge, fittingly while riding a bicycle, and we became friends. Craig lives way out in Western South Dakota, but made the trip out just to be immersed into Trans Iowa as a volunteer. Since he decided to do that, I put him into a few different situations to make his trip worthwhile.
Another great thing about Craig is that he is a pretty good writer and posts on his own blog. While I am not normally one to push anything about myself in terms of personal things, the article Craig wrote about Trans Iowa after his experience does something really well that I never was able to tell due to my perspective. Craig's take is from an outsider's view and it nails many of the things I was trying to get across about Trans Iowa. Anyway, he did a great job, and instead of having it just be sitting there in a corner of the internet, I thought I'd link it here today. Click Here.
|Cherry Grove Checkpoint. My son is standing on the corner.
This weekend my son and I are making the short trek Northward to the tiny hamlet of Cherry Grove, Minnesota to man Checkpoint 3 of the Almanzo 100.
This will be the third year that Riding Gravel has been tabbed as the sponsor of this Checkpoint. I sure hope that we get better weather than the first two times. The first year it was chilly and very windy. Last year was simply just brutal. Cold, windy, and rain all afternoon. Yuck!
This time it looks to be a lot better. So, I expect that we will see a LOT more riders than we did the previous two years. We will be ready. I expect Ben will be bringing the same sort of set up we've had the previous two years and that my son and I will be very busy helping out riders and yakking with all sorts of folks.
In fact, if the weather actually holds up and is decent, I'm not sure what to expect Saturday in Cherry Grove. A "nice weather" Almanzo is something I've not yet experienced. Well, whatever happens will get reported on here come Monday morning. Stay tuned........
|County maintenance is happening- Here is the evidence!
With the big wave of corn planting done the soybean planting is now in full swing. I was out Wednesday and saw evidence of planting going on along with emerging corn plants. The greening up of the Iowa countryside is happening now and it won't be long before we're riding down halls of eight foot high corn and rows and rows of bushy soybean plants.
Another "second wave" that is happening now along side of the second wave of planting is the maintenance of gravel roads. The ag machinery pretty much wastes the gravel and pushes it off to the sides. Well, that is being redistributed across the roadways by the big grader machines.
I caught a freshly graded road in Southern Black Hawk County and eventually passed the grader coming back North on Beck Road. The gravel was deeply distributed across the roadway and all loosey-goosey. Running in the tire tracks was the way to beat the mushy gravel which tried to make my tires swap ends. I found Aker Road wasn't a whole lot better, by the way.
This will probably get us through the soybean planting phase and given no long, soaking rains, I suspect regular gravel maintenance will start up late in May. Get out there before they dump even more crushed rock!

Of course, traditional media already has this fork (and the bike it comes on) and you can read the reviews as well as I can. I will only pass on a few tidbits I have gleaned from the Cannondale rep that serves the shop where I work.
First, and most amazingly to me, despite losing the triple clamp of yore, the fork's original prototypes were too stiff and the designers had to go back and design in some compliance. Secondly, and probably most importantly, the fork is now compatible with bikes using a tapered steer tube- not a proprietary steer tube as before, or limited to specially modded crown/triple clamp mods. So, Cannondale has always sold aftermarket with Leftys, but now they are pursuing this more overtly. Expect to see Leftys on all sorts of bikes in about a year. Not only has the fork been made more universal in terms of fitment, but now Cannondale can use head tube lengths appropriate to whatever bike they want to design, and not have to fit the triple crown length specifically.
Of course, you may be so weirded out and/or repulsed by the Lefty Ocho that none of this matters, but this still represents a major innovation in fork technology, and it works well. My thought is that a travel reduced version might easily be adapted to a gravel bike. Hmm........I bet we see that too.
I generally don't push RidingGravel.com content here, but I am particularly proud of the effort put in by contributor John Ingham on his latest essay for the site entitled "To Cosmos and Beyond". If you decide to check it out, be forewarned- it is a long read. Get your favorite beverage ready beforehand!
Okay, this weekend could be quite a doozy. Things are happening behind the scenes which could make things real interesting! Get out and ride yer bikes folks!

It was Sun Tzu who once said, "If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles." And it was Sensei Wu who once said, "The best way to defeat your enemy is to make them your friend." While one of those philosophers wrote the Art of War and the other was a cartoon character in Ninjago, they both make the same valid point: when working with customers, if you know them and befriend them, you can develop business relationships that can result in increased sales, fewer returns, fewer disputes, and will ultimately lead to repeat purchases. For major retailers experiencing higher return rates and overstock inventory, it might feel like you're in the midst of a clandestine war in which you must covertly increase recovery from additional processing, shipping, and storing costs. But it doesn't have to be that way, especially if you understand your customer: the certified SMB secondary market retail owner who resells discount merchandise.
Selling overstock and return merchandise through B-Stock's secondary retail marketplace—a viable and established sales channel that nine out of the top 10 U.S. retailers are currently using—is an effective and proven strategy to increase recovery rates. To capitalize on this channel, it's important to learn who the customer is, and what they want. At B-Stock, we listen to both our buyers and sellers to help both sides of the equation get the best deal possible. Here now are the top 3 things buyers want from sellers:
- Product—What all retail business owners want is inventory to stock their shelves. If they know your marketplace consistently has the consumer electronics, or home furnishings, or whatever product they need, buyers will learn to count on you for that inventory.
- Quality—The condition and quality of your merchandise is extremely important to buyers. Many store owners only want product in a certain condition. For example, many appliance dealers are only looking for scratch & dent quality, or a buyer might want only scrap cell phones to harvest parts, or another buyer might only want undamaged apparel. To make your lots appealing, it's important to consistently post auctions with the same level of quality and to clearly describe the condition of the lot in the manifest.
- Scheduling—When and how often you post your listings makes a difference to a buyer. If they know to visit your site on the first Monday of each month to find a lot of the same inventory, with the same starting bid price, in the same condition, then you are taking the first step in establishing trust and confidence with buyers who require a consistent product flow.
The running theme throughout this list is consistency. If you're looking to build relationships with your customers, then creating auction listings with consistent product, quality, and frequency will go a long ways in turning buyers into friends. We look forward to speaking with you soon.

What is BESTY?
BESTY stands for Beth Elohim Senior Temple Youth, a teen run organization within CBE. We plan monthly programming for 9th-12th grade students at CBE. Our programming consists of events that focus on social justice, and sometimes our events are just social! We are the local level under the organization NFTY (North American Federation of Temple Youth), and are a part of the New York Area Region (NFTY-NAR).
We also offer programming for middle school students through BESTY Jr.!
What does BESTY do?
We aim to create a space for our teens that empowers them to be the best they can be! We hold lots of amazing events during the course of the year. Also, students who are involved in BESTY are eligible to take part in NFTY programming.
Take a look at what BESTY accomplished, created, and had fun doing this year!
Havdallah on the Beach
BESTY went all the way to Coney Island! A group of 22 teens traveled down the shore to enjoy games, programming, and Havdallah on beach. We got to the beach and played tag and frisbee. Later members of the BESTY Board led the group in a feel good note writing activity. As the sun set, we had a lovely camp-style Havdallah. And, of course, a BESTY event is not complete without a sweet treat. We all got ice cream before dispersing for the evening. What a great start to the school year!
Volunteering at HUC Soup Kitchen
BESTY loves to fill the calendar with as many community service projects as we can. One of our favorite ways to volunteer is spending time at the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion soup kitchen. HUC-JIR hosts a soup kitchen every single Monday evening. The room is set up like a restaurant and there is always live music. The teens get to take on roles of either serving or greeting, getting to interact with a community of people that they may not get to talk to everyday. HUC-JIR does a great job of educating the students on food insecurity before they volunteer and we always have a debrief at the end.
Sandwich-Making and Packing for CHiPS
BESTY made over 200 sandwiches for CHiPS. Since 1971, CHiPS has been supported in the community helping to prepare hot, nutritious meals and serve them to the hungry in a caring and respectful environment. They also hand out bagged lunches. BESTY got together and bagged over 200 lunches with sandwiches, a snack, and a beverage. It is great to see what the teens can accomplish when they do it together!
Fall Kallah
Kallot are an amazing time for our high school students to get together with other Jewish Teens in our region. Our NFTY region is made up of Long Island, NYC, Westchester, and Fairfield County, CT! Eight teens and our Teen Educator, Hannah Isaacs, went all the way to Kutz Camp in upstate NY for a weekend full of exploring our own Jewish identity, fun activities, dance parties, and meeting new people!
Pancake Hangout
Make your own Pancakes and hang out, sounds fun to me! That is exactly what BESTY did in December. We took out the griddle and made our own pancakes by chef Stella King! We then did some arts and crafts, board games, and enjoying time with friends. Sometimes a good hang out is all you need.
Winter Kallah
Winter Kallah is always home hosted, meaning that a synagogue hosts teens from all over the region. This year, Winter Kallah was hosted by Larchmont Temple in Westchester. A few teens went and explored different social justice issue they are passionate about. One of the most eye-opening programs was the one about climate change. We really learned a lot!
Ice Skating with BHGSY
Ice Skating and Hot chocolate– what else is there to do in January in Brooklyn?! Brooklyn Heights Synagogue and CBE joined forces and hosted an ice skating program together. We had some mixers, ice skated together, and wrapped up with a beautiful Havdallah in the park. Havdallah was led by board members from both synagogues– it was a great time with BESTY & BHGSY.
Volunteering with Dorot
BESTY loves volunteering with Dorot. Dorot is a Jewish organization on the Upper West Side that helps fight isolation among the elderly community. In February they had their Winter Package delivery day. BESTY split up into five groups to visit five different seniors in their homes. The teens and seniors love visiting each other!
Volunteering at HUC Soup Kitchen
BESTY visited the Hebrew Union College- Jewish Institute of Religion soup kitchen again! HUC-JIR hosts a soup kitchen every single Monday evening. The room is set up like a restaurant and there is always live music. The teens get to take on roles of either serving or greeting, getting to interact with a community of people that they may not get to talk to everyday. HUC-JIR does a great job of educating the students on food insecurity before they volunteer and we always have a debrief at the end.

Based on 3D-CAD-data, we create precise models of products that serve as a starting point for a scale to use for visual possibilities. Even when there is insufficient CAD-information, we can use simple illustrations and component photos to bring the product to life as a 3D model.
The result? A photorealistic image in various positions and backgrounds, cross-sections, ghost views, and exploded views. These high-definition models (which can be still or animated) can be applied to:
Promotional material, such as leaflets, banners, and exhibition walls
Interactive training for production, assembling, and repair.
Product configuration.

How To Cheat On Your Homework – 5 Must-Know Tricks
Teachers in many institutions always give their students extra work to be done outside class so as to reinforce understanding of concepts taught in class. More often than not students always find themselves caught up with time in doing the assignments to completeness before submission. This has always prompted students to cheat in assignments, doing it successfully while others unsuccessfully. Below are Five a must know tricks in cheating on assignment.
Obtaining answers from friend
This is the easiest and quickest way to cheat. The answers are copied from a friend who knows The best way to do it safely is to copy from someone who did the assignment correctly. First, you have to make friends with the smartest students in class who always do assignments correctly and in good time. Copying of the assignments has to be done in the bus on the way home, or on the way to school.
Work in groups
The easiest way to do the assignment fast and easy is through a group. Contributions made by everyone in a group ensures everyone gets the right answer and the assignment gets done quickly. This is not done in class rather it is done in the safety of someone's home or in the bus on the way home. Do not make the group so big so as limit the number of classmates having answers framed in the same way. To have the homework go faster, it is advisable to split the assignment into sections and distribute the sections to different group members.
Changing the wording in the answers
It is recommended to change the wording in the answers if the answers are copied from a friend's work. This can be done by use of synonyms or changing sentence structures. Also try to copy from someone who your teacher does not think you are friends. This is done to avoid raising any suspicion.
Get answers on the internet
Internet is a good source of information that can provide answers to almost every assignment that students are given. Solutions to assignments that have been given repeatedly can easily be found in the internet. The information in the internet is detailed and requires some time to filter out irrelevant information and only present the relevant information as answers.
Include some wrong answers in the assignment
It can seem kind of conspicuous if you submit all correct answers yet you are not a great student. One has to be smart about it and include some wrong answers. This will lower the suspicion of the teacher and chances of on getting away with it are high.
Get your homework done

Wow! Sorry I missed my last Eat. Live. Be. post. I just couldn't post. I left work late because I had to stay and put a chest tube in one of my patients and then compile some information for research I'm doing. Then I had call Tuesday night...super busy! There were FOUR deliveries requiring NICU attendance between 1230 and 4am. Needless to say, on Wednesday, I crashed. And now, it is Thursday! A couple of weeks ago, I had some leftover bananas to use. I saw this recipe for a while wheat, blueberry banana bread and decided to try it. Oh, and did I mention that it uses olive oil?
Ari, formerly of Baking and Books! Such fun to find an old favorite in a new place. :-) The bread was great. Not overly sweet but just perfect. Also a plus was that it COOKED through. I have issues with banana bread in my oven but this one worked. The only advice I would give is to eat it quickly, share it, or freeze if you can't finish in a few days. I think the addition of the blueberries makes it get sticky/friendly more quickly than usual. Thanks for a great recipe, Ari!
Sweet Happy Life
Makes 1 loaf
■1/2 cup olive oil, I used about 1/3 cup
■1/2 cup light brown sugar
■1/4 cup granulated white sugar
■1 cup whole wheat flour*
■1/2 cup all-purpose flour
■2 large eggs
■1 teaspoon baking soda
■1 teaspoon salt
■1/2 cup mashed bananas (about 1 large banana)
■1 cup yogurt, I used fat free
■1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
■1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen but fresh is better)
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl combine the olive oil, sugars, eggs, bananas, yogurt and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mix until just combined, then fold in the blueberries. (If you REALLY want to be good, mix the dry ingredients together in a separate bowl before mixing into the we ingredients.)
Pour the batter into your pan. Bake until the loaf is golden brown and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes, mine took full time. Let rest in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out on a rack to cool. Enjoy!
