Been on 2 courses this week. Only one of which I found particularly useful and that's because it will eventually provide me with HLTA status. Yay!
Pity it took 2 hours to get there via pubic (typo intended) transport. Quicker in fact to get to Manchester City Centre from where I live.
My old nemesis and I, the 508 – the number of the beast – we met again at 0735 on Thursday morning and will do again for the next few Thursdays leading up to Christmas. When that bad boy has finished with me, I get spat out onto the Headrow after a riveting 60 minute journey through every last nook and cranny between here and Kirskstall and then have to get on another bus!
Big Boo hiss to the Reception lady at the centre I was headed to, who advised me to get the bus outside the Corn Exchange when she should have said to catch it at the bus stop opposite the Corn Exchange! 10 valuable minutes wasted there! Eventually got on the correct bus and had that sickening feeling in my belly that I was going to be late on my first day and that I had absolutely no fricking idea where I was going.
Winding through unfamiliar places made me feel like back in the old Backpacker days in Australia and New Zealand, wandering free, new places, exciting times, (OK so it was a Leeds No. 13 to Gledhow, but it's the closest I'll get these days).
So I arrived fashionably late by 10 minutes, shuffling in at the back hoping nobody would notice.
At breaktime I noticed that my biscuit tasted rather odd and when I checked my phone for messages I realised that my emergency tube of Volterol for my backpain, had leaked in my bag, all over my phone and I had some on my fingers. At least neither my phone, fingers or tongue will be in any pain for a day or two. FFS. Dumbarse!
Journey home was nackering and just as long as on the way there, but this time I had the added cacophony of sound accompanying me, of dozens of teenage school girls, Jeebus! the noise they make!. Even with the old C3PO on full whack I couldn't drown them out.
Proper tired when I got home.
The saving grace of today's course was that I didn't have to go on my own and that I was with my bezzy mate, who as you can see was well up for a bit of practical P.E.
I'm jumping ahead of myself though. This pic was taken after we finally arrived. Nothing more terrifying than a bit of a jolly round scenic Wortley to liven you up of a morning. Or is there?
Pulled up to park the car at the wrong centre. Decided to park there anyway and walk up the road as very little parking space available where we were headed. Seemed like a good idea until two extras from Shaun of the Dead Vs League of Gentlemen, clad in tabards, lurched across the carpark at us, brandishing feather dusters. One had the loping gait of the undead and a face like Quasimodo's Nan and the other had that white, dried, foam mouthed appearance of a rabid animal or someone who forgot to check the mirror after they brushed their teeth (my money's on the former).
I fended her off with my water bottle hoping that her hydrophobia would startle them both away. The sole reason I don't have photographic evidence of these pair was that I was backing away at the time and trying to make discreet eye signals to my pal that she unlock the car pronto and we get the fuck outta dodge!
I'm sure they are lovely ladies and someone's Mum/Nan/sister, yadayadayada, but fuck me, were they scary!!
My free breakfast, when we finally got to the right place, consisted of a burnt crumpet and a thimble of coffee, with no break before lunch, despite it saying there was one on the itinerary. This was never going to end well.
We zoned out as soon as we heard that there was to be team games and salsa (and not the sort that comes with a bowl of Doritos). We felt like clawing at the fire exits for escape but we were trapped!
They made us do stuff! On a P.E. course – Who'd have thought it? My mate's face at almost everything that was said today was an absolute picture. A picture in fact that would mostly be captioned with the words "What the frigging fuck?!"
Fortunately there is no photographic evidence of me rolling around on the floor with a bunch of total strangers, many of whom were men; all in a line like pencils trying to get a hula hoop to roll across our prone bodies. Holy jesus! WTF? I had some personal space issues with that exercise let me tell you.
When faced with discussing the key features of the course and should any further equipment be required, I did mutter something along the lines of "perhaps a dictionary".
Not the most constructive use of the day but worth it for the laughs. A lot of which were when a certain person's Salsa dancing all went a bit Gavlar and Smithy once the arms were introduced:
Crackin! (up)
It wasn't long after this that my pal and I were split into different groups – funnily enough…
Then sod me! when we were finally paroled, armed with our well-earned resources (which if they don't get used, are going to get shoved unceremoniously up someone's jacksie) if Dolly Duster of the Undead didn't lurch out of the Library on our way out!
I practically sprinted out to the carpark before she caught up with me!
I'll be needing a drink this weekend you can be sure of it, starting right now I think.

You might remember that I had written a tutorial titled, Simple User Login in a Vue.js Web Application, which demonstrated how to navigate between routes and check a variable to determine if a user should in fact be allowed to be on a particular route. This previous tutorial focused on applying logic after the user had already completed the navigation process, rather than during or prior. While this is a good introduction to becoming familiar with the Vue.js router, it isn't a realistic approach to handling user login and route restrictions.
The recommended approach is to use navigation guards, sometimes referred to as route guards.
In this tutorial, we're going to see how to use Vuex with Vue.js navigation guards to protect certain pages within the application from unauthorized access.Read More
I've written quite a bit of content around developing a GraphQL API with various programming technologies such as Node.js, Golang, and Java. Heck, I even wrote an eBook on the subject titled, Web Services for the JavaScript Developer. However, I haven't really produced any content around interacting with those APIs using modern frameworks and client facing technologies, only cURL and Postman.
So how do you interact with a GraphQL API using something like Angular, React, or Vue.js?
There are a lot of frameworks to cover, but in this particular tutorial we're going to see how to use Vue.js and simple JavaScript to interact with a GraphQL API.Read More
Not too long ago I had written a tutorial titled, U2F Authentication with a YubiKey Using Node.js and jQuery, which demonstrated how to use hardware keys as a means of universal two-factor (U2F) authentication. However, I had left some things to be desired in that previous post. For example, the previous tutorial did not use proper session management with Express.js and it used jQuery, which is neat, but by no means is as popular as some of the other web frameworks that currently exist.
In this tutorial, we're going to expand upon what we had done previously, but implement proper session management with Express.js and use Vue.js, which is a modern web framework.Read More
A long time ago when I had been exploring session management in Node.js, I had written a tutorial titled, Session Management in Your Express.js Web Application. This was a basic tutorial that is still very functional today, however little things have changed since then when it comes to how the web works. For example, in 2015 HTTPS was never a requirement and we weren't exposed to all the frontend web frameworks that exist today.
When you start introducing things into your web applications such as HTTPS or micro-services that operate on different origins or ports, or frontend frameworks, session management can get a little more complicated. We're going to see how to maintain a session for a user using Node.js with Express.js on our backend and Vue.js on our frontend, in this tutorial.Read More
If you're like me, you thought you'd try to build a cross-platform desktop application using the very popular Electron framework as well as the very popular Vue.js JavaScript framework. At first glance it might seem as easy as defining an Electron configuration, but in reality, a little more needs to be done when using Webpack to build the project.
I had written a few tutorials a while back around Electron, and even one with Vue.js, but in that example the Vue CLI and Webpack were not part of the equation. In this tutorial, we're going to see how to create a new Vue.js application using the Vue CLI, configure it for use with Electron, and then deploy it in all its glory.Read More
So you've just built an awesome new Android application using NativeScript and the Vue.js JavaScript framework and you're wondering what's next. Unless this is an internal application, you're probably going to want to publish the application to a marketplace like Google Play. The thing is, up until now, you've probably only been working with a debug build of your Android application and binary.
We're going to see how to take a NativeScript application that uses Vue.js and build an Android binary for release using a signing key and some command line magic.Read More
In this tutorial we will build a simple Vue.js application which will demonstrate the power of using Vuex as a central data store, where the data will be asynchronously retrieved using Axios for the API requests.

Well the League has started and I went to the Cage today for a few games of Mordheim. The first game for my Tilean warband was a skirmish against Tony's Undead. It ended as a loss for me after failing a rout test. I wouldn't call them Highlights but my Captain being taken out of action by a zombie before swinging one blow, another champion being knocked out of action and a warrior being killed. The champ ended up missing the next game. The next was against Shaun and a loaner beastman warband. I fared a little better and won this game. A highlight was the crossbow shot that knocked out the beastman leader and then the rest of of the band routing off of the board. The last game was a rematch against Tony's Undead. Another loss for me after a voluntary rout to save several of my knocked down or stunned heros before they took out of action. I managed to get some extra wyrdstone but one of my youngbloods had his arm amputated.
I had a lot of fun and can't wait for the next mordheim day. So off to the work table to build a new youngblood model with a hook for a hand.

History: A steer was found dead with no prior clinical signs. The farm had 12 animals die (of 550) over the past 10 days.
Gross Findings:
Subcutaneous and muscular emphysema throughout the animal. There was moderate to severe retroperitoneal and mediastinal edema. The hind-limb skeletal muscles had multiple dark red areas and were emphysematous. They had a prominent odor of rancid butter.
The trachea and main-stem bronchi were filled with a blood-tinged foam. The tracheal mucosa was dark red. The pericardium was filled with approximately 0.5 L of red fluid, and the
epicardial surface was covered with a large amount of fibrin. The ventricular myocardium and the interventricular septa had multiple dark red areas (approximately 4cm x 3cm x 2 cm).
The lungs were diffusely wet and heavy and were adhered by fibrin to the thoracic wall.
The serosal surface of the rumen was multifocally covered with fibrin.
1. Necrotizing emphysematous myositis and myocarditis, multifocal, severe, with intralesional bacteria.
2. Fibrinous epicarditis
Skeletal muscle: The majority of myocytes are diffusely devoid of nuclei but retain their cross-striations. There are multifocal hemorrhages within the muscle, and scattered foci of edema. Some sections have large clear spaces between myofibers (emphysema), and other sections have small numbers of degenerate neutrophils. There are rare nuclei present.
Heart: The myocardium is mostly devoid of nuclei, except for several cardiac myocytes. There are multifocal hemorrhages in the myocardium and scattered neutrophils present. There are few rod shaped bacteria
seen. On the epicardial surface is a large aggregation of neutrophils and fibrin.
Diagnosis: A fluorescent antibody test performed on a smear of skeletal muscle was
positive for Clostridium chauvoei. The gross and histological lesions confirm this diagnosis.
Comment: These cattle were not vaccinated for Clostridium chauvoei. The spores are still viable in the soil and cattle can still become infected if not vaccinated.

Soy Yogurt in Quarts
Q: I desperately need soy yogurt. I think Whole Soy will never resurrect itself. Ask Stonyfield's to market unsweetened soy yogurt in quarts. Same with Nancy's.
A: Thanks for your question! It's true the Whole Soy brand soy yogurt has been missing from our shelves for a while. The good news is that the 6 oz. cups are now back and the quarts will soon follow. The reason for their absence was that the facility they had previously been using to co-pack their yogurt abruptly stopped making their product in 2013. Whole Soy was able to rebound from this challenge and construct their own, 100% dairy-free production facility, which has allowed them to resume production while also ensuring that no cross contamination can happen with dairy products. They have lots of great information about their new plant on their website: www.wholesoyco.com. As soon as the quart size is available, we'll be sure to get it back on our shelves! –Megan Minnick, Purchasing Director
Sunflower Seed Butter
Q: Please give us the option of sunflower seed butter. You have three bins: two with peanuts (crunchy & smooth) and one with almonds. The almonds are usually stale, so prefer you substitute sunflowers for almonds. Or limit the peanut options to one. Or add another bin.
A: Thanks for your request! Both types of bulk peanut butter and bulk almond butter are all extremely popular with many of our Owners, so it's not feasible to replace any of those options with sunflower seeds at this time. We don't have sufficient space currently to add a 4th grinder at either store, although it's a good idea that I'll keep in mind for the future—especially if we receive more requests like yours. In the meantime, we sell several different brands of very high quality jarred sunflower seed butter in our grocery department. Thanks again for writing! –Megan Minnick, Purchasing Director
Q: When will you keep the promise you made way back when never to put a car driveway to Jenifer? We want it closed now. It's dangerous for peds and bikes and increases motorized traffic on Jenifer St.
A: The Co-op has no intention of closing the driveway at this time. –Anya Firszt, General Manager
Sock puppets
Q: Oh come on! After that b*lls@%t with the sock puppets and the "hilarious" fake letters in the April Co-op Reader, it's pretty clear what "my" co-op thinks about "its" owners—at least those who bother to comment. I won't make that mistake again! Adios, losers!
A: Thank you for sharing your concerns with us and we apologize for any confusion we may have caused. The sock puppet performances at Mother Fools Coffeehouse are independently produced by the Sockrates Sock Puppet Carnival of Morals and Logic. The troupe did not work with Willy Street Co-op in creating the performance pieces; they were created independently. With regard to the April Reader, the only April Fools spoof was the cover itself; the rest of the content was real. We genuinely value our Owners (many of us, including myself, are Owners too). We also enjoy opportunities for our community to laugh with one another, which I believe was the spirit of our April Fools Reader cover. –Kirsten Moore, Director of Cooperative Services
Geiger counter
Q: Buy a Geiger counter and check for radioactivity of foods. Already had one experience with radioactive organic peanuts from [a competitor].
A: Thanks for the idea, and I hope you shared your peanut experience with [a competitor] themselves. We work closely with our vendors and distributors and hold them accountable for ensuring that the food they provide us is safely produced and safe to consume. In the rare instances our vendors or our staff discover that a compromised or unsafe product has made it to our shelves, we utilize an internal recall process to pull product, produce signage in store and online to alert customers, and notify all Owners with up-to-date contact information.
–Kirsten Moore, Director of Cooperative Services
Fairly priced goods
Q: Your mission statement declares that you provide "fairly priced goods" to serve the needs of the Owners. I have to question this when I see how you have dramatically raised the prices on most of your hot deli items to $8.49 per lb. in the wake of the remodeling, a drastic inflation of prices on many hot deli items by 60% to over 100%! This arbitrary, not market-based, uniform raising of all these item prices to $8.49/lb. seems unfair, contrary to your mission and even unethical, because the remodeling is used as an excuse. As a result, I now boycott all hot deli items except those which were priced $8.49/lb. or higher before the remodeling. You are losing sales to this customer/Owners.
A: Thanks for writing in. The reprice that accompanied the opening of the self-serve hot bar cut both ways. Some items came up and some came down in price. I understand the frustration over increases on certain items that may have been favorites and I'm sorry for that hard change. Please know that the change was not arbitrary. The nature of the bar is a flat price per lb. for customer convenience when mixing foods on a plate, and is rooted in the market in that we charge in line with our nearest competition with a full-service hot bar despite the organic content (and hence cost of production) on ours being much higher. Thanks for writing in. –Josh Perkins, Prepared Foods Director
good job
Q: Just wanted to say that you are all doing an amazing job during the remodel! Every time we come in, everything's a little different + rearranged, but the staff are their same 100% helpful + friendly selves + doing everything to keep things running smoothly. So as a result, we've felt 0% inconvenienced for these past few months. How do you do it? Whatever your organizational magic is, we notice + appreciate it—thank you!
A: Thank you very much! Our staff has been working very hard, indeed, to keep things running as smoothly as possible during renovation at Willy East, and we appreciate the recognition. I have passed this on through internal channels to make sure everyone sees your praise!We are excited to see the remodel complete for you to enjoy. –Kirsten Moore, Director of Cooperative Services
union electricians
Q: Thank you for hiring union electricians! One more reason to love my coop!
A: Thanks for the support! We can't take all the credit for this one, many thanks also goes to Vogel Brothers Building Company, our union contractor, who hires union whenever possible. –Kirsten Moore, Director of Cooperative Services
Q: I did not vote for or support this remodel… I have to say it seems to be going on forever. I cannot imagine the improvements will be worth the disruption to me personally. I only hope our employees gain a great deal from it, that would be a silver lining… Just felt I needed to say it again.
A: Thank you for making your voice heard. We know not everyone voted for the remodel, but we are proceeding as per the wishes of the majority of Owners who did vote. The remodel was scheduled to last 10 months and so far we are pleased to be on schedule. Our staff is working very hard to make this as smooth a process as possible and we appreciate the support from Ownership we have received. Some amenities staff will enjoy after the remodel include an additional staff bathroom, reduced numbers of staff working in basement cubicles, more space to work and have private meetings, a larger receiving area and more. We are looking forward to the benefits and hope that once the renovation is over you too will enjoy the new changes. If there is anything we can do to make your shopping experience more enjoyable in the meantime, please do not hesitate to ask. –Kirsten Moore, Director of Cooperative Services
Ours vs. Yours
Q: Interesting choice of works on the entry sign "OUR remodel of YOUR store." I hope you make efforts (in the future) to turn "OUR" profits into lowering food costs—isn't the A: purpose of "cooperative."
A: Thank you for writing and my apologies for not responding sooner. The purpose of a cooperative is to meet the needs of its Owners. Sometimes it is about lowering food costs, and we are very diligent about passing on the best prices to our customers possible. There are other Owner needs too, such as making sure that the store is clean, safe, welcoming, and uses its space to its maximum benefits. The remodel did not have an effect on food costs; our remodel was paid for the same way we pay for our other assets: with a combination of debt and equity. We currently operate on a sound financial basis, which means that we do not need to increase the amount of profit we make to pay down debt over time. –Kirsten Moore, Director of Cooerative Services

Tag-Team Q&A with TheBookBratz
Hi, everyone!
For today's post, I'll be interviewing three lovely book bloggers who are all so talented and inspiring! Jessica, Amber, and Emily run The Book Bratz blog, where they post amazingly detailed book reviews and entertaining bookish blog posts. (You can click the link to read their tag-team blog post!) If you aren't following their blog now, you definitely should. This post is extra-special today because today is my ONE YEAR blogging anniversary, and The Book Bratz were the first people to welcome me to the blogging community!
This Q&A is different because we each sent each other 10 completely different questions to answer, so you have to visit both of our blogs to see different answers!
Enjoy the Q&A and learning more about The Book Bratz!
1. If you could visit one mythical world (found in a book or movie), where would you go?
Jessica: This is a hard one since I read so much contemporary, but I'd definitely love to work at the publishing company in Sally Thorne's The Hating Game.
Amber: Ketterdam from Six of Crows and cause some havoc with the rest of the gang!
Emily: Gatlin, South Carolina from Beautiful Creatures
2. Do you have a specific book that you read when you just need an escape?
Jessica: I don't actually, because I am the WORST at rereading books. I just can't do it. Not even with my favorite books. It's a terrible trait of mine!
Amber: Not really, I typically have a lot of review copies to go through. So sometimes I'll read one that I wasn't planning on reading yet.
Emily: Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl
3. Where would you like to see your blog at the end of 2019?
Jessica: I'd hopefully like to have made even more close blogging friends, as well as hopefully hitting 6K Twitter followers, of course!
Amber: Honestly? I'm not all too sure. We've exceeded so much in the past couple of years that I'm not sure.
Emily: I would love to see us hit an all time high for page views and followers!
4. What are some of your hobbies outside of blogging?
Jessica: I'm really into writing, and starting to get into bullet journaling. I also really love listening to music! (Twenty One Pilots and Jon Bellion are my faves!)
Amber: Outside of blogging I love to play around with makeup (there was a point where I wanted to be a makeup artist!), write and watch a lot of Netflix!
Emily: Ummmmmm, studying? Nursing School has quite literally taken over my life.
5. Which food do you love the most, and which food do you dislike the most?
Jessica: Burritos. I can literally eat them 24/7. I even got published in a literary magazine and dedicated my poem to them. But the two foods I absolutely can't stand are olives and seafood. No real explanation why!
Amber: I LOVE Mexican food. There is the restaurant in my town that serves the best California style Mexican food and I have an extreme soft spot for it. I really really dislike Sweet Potatoes. I don't know why. I just do!
Emily: My favorite food would probably be anything potato related (fries, hash browns, breakfast potatoes, roasted potatoes.....) I can go on forever. Least favorite is probably Brussel sprouts, ew.
6. If you could meet one celebrity right now, who would it be and why?
Jessica: Jon Bellion! We actually live a few towns over from him, and a lot of his songs reference places we've been or like to hang out...ugh. I love him.
Amber: Ummm... this is a tricky one. I think Prince Harry if he counts. I've had the biggest crush on him since forever. But shhhhh! Don't tell my boyfriend!
Emily: I would love to meet Tyler Joesph and Josh Dun of Twenty Øne Piløts. Their music has helped me through a lot mentally and physically.
7. What's your favorite genre to read, and your favorite book from that genre?
Jessica: I am an absolute sucker for contemporary romance, and one of my favorites is They Both Die At the End by Adam Silvera!
Amber: I have two favorite genres. Fantasy and Sci-fi. I can't pick a favorite because there are a lot because I really like books by Leigh Bardugo, Astrid Scholte, Crystal Smith, Aime Kaufman, Jay Kristoff, Erin Bowman and many many more!
Emily: Contemporary and please don't make me choose! If I had to, probably anything by Colleen Hoover.
8. The Disney song that's always stuck in your head?
Jessica: Literally anything from Aladdin, but specifically Never Had a Friend Like Me. One of my favorites that makes me want to dance!
Amber: Anything High School Musical! Forever ingrained into my memory.
Emily: It's not so much Disney but a DCOM. Introducing Me by Nick Jonas from Camp Rock 2 will always be my jam.
9. If you could give one tip to someone wanting to start a book blog, what would you say?
Jessica: Do it for you and nobody else. There is no recipe to success. We started this blog to talk about books that we liked and never had high expectations or chased stats, and somehow we grew to be as big as we did. And the people that stressed over stats and tried to generate content just for views never seemed to gain as many followers as we did -- I still strongly believe that it's because we focus on putting out content that we love instead of chasing numbers or trying to be on trend to get views. Hopefully that passion comes through in our posts.
Amber: Have fun with it and don't stress about the numbers. I remember as I New blogger I was easily discouraged by blog stats. They are something that come in time and they aren't something that is going to happen overnight. Post content that you want to post and not what everyone else thinks you should post. Most importantly be your unique self.
Emily: Have fun! Don't stress yourself out, it's all about expressing your love for books so just go with it.
10. What's your favorite book quote?
Jessica: "Impossible is just an excuse not to try" from Contagion!
Amber: "Better terrible truths than kind lies." - Leigh Bardugo, Six of Crows
Emily: "I've spent my life folded between the pages of books." - Tahereh Mafi, Shatter Me
11. A very important bonus question…Gale or Peeta?
Jessica: Peeta. Always. 100%. Don't even try to convince me of anything different. I'm not saying your opinions are invalid but I'm strong in my love for that adorable little bread boy.
Amber: Sigh. I have an unpopular opinion on this one as I get older.(I read the trilogy when I was 13 and now I am 20.) Neither? Team Katniss. #girlpower
Emily: PEETA ALL THE WAY
I don't know about you, but I had the best time reading Jessica, Amber, and Emily's answers! 😄 Make sure to follow them on Twitter and Instagram to get blog updates, and you can also follow their blog straight from their home page!
Thank you for reading today's post!

The Gilded Wolves ~ YA Book Review
THE GILDED WOLVES by Roshani Chokshi
(This book was received for free in exchange for an honest review from St. Martin's/Wednesday Books).
Roshani Chokshi's THE GILDED WOLVES is a masterfully written historical fantasy set in pre-industry Paris. It follows the story of Severin and his brilliant accomplices as they search for an ancient artifact that holds the key to Severin's true inheritance. THE GILDED WOLVES is a captivating, exciting, powerful, and thrilling adventure into a world rooted in real-life truths and stories, and this book is now on my "Best of 2019" list!
(Here's a short summary from Amazon.com:
It's 1889. The city is on the cusp of industry and power, and the Exposition Universelle has breathed new life into the streets and dredged up ancient secrets. Here, no one keeps tabs on dark truths better than treasure-hunter and wealthy hotelier Séverin Montagnet-Alarie. When the elite, ever-powerful Order of Babel coerces him to help them on a mission, Séverin is offered a treasure that he never imagined: his true inheritance. To hunt down the ancient artifact the Order seeks, Séverin calls upon a band of unlikely experts: An engineer with a debt to pay. A historian banished from his home. A dancer with a sinister past. And a brother in arms if not blood.
Together, they will join Séverin as he explores the dark, glittering heart of Paris. What they find might change the course of history--but only if they can stay alive.)
I need to stop gushing about this book long enough for me to write a decent review. Without giving away any spoilers, the plot of THE GILDED WOLVES was very unique. It's based on the Tower of Babel (a story from the Bible), and Chokshi weaves her own backstories and mythology to go along with that starting point. The final result is an organization that has four different Houses that stemmed from when the Tower was destroyed by God. The world (ancient Paris) the story is set in is lavishly described, and the reader is never wanting for detail. There is the perfect amount of detail in TGW: not too much, not too little. TGW has one of the most intriguing plot lines and settings I've read about…it hasn't been done before, and everything is fresh and exciting.
If you're a fan of the camaraderie in Six of Crows and the heist action in Ocean's Eleven, then THE GILDED WOLVES is for you. When I mention SoC, I do want to make it a point not to compare books to each other (or "book bash"), and I only mention other books/movies in my reviews if I think fans of another series or genre will enjoy the book I'm reviewing. If you did enjoy SoC, and want to read a story along those lines + frequent humor and banter, you'll definitely enjoy TGW.
Now, *rubs hands,* let's get to the incredible characters.
Folks, I'm here to introduce you to the new squad of 2019.
I instantly fell in love with the characters the most, and I love every one of them equally. Because the characters are so well-written with brilliant descriptions, I connected with each of them. Their individual personalities shine through, and aid in the reading process because you can easily tell which character is speaking. Here's a quick character list I typed up:
Severin: the serious hotelier who may or may not like Laila…he hasn't quite decided yet. He takes risks while making sure his crew (especially his brother-figure Tristan) is safe.
Laila: a beautiful dancer for a popular Parisian dance-house who may or may not like Severin…I think she's decided. She's also a baker and a fierce woman who stands up for herself.
Enrique: an amazingly funny historian (I laughed at almost all his lines) who is an optimist, but also has mixed feelings about his relationships.
Zofia: a fierce engineer who has OCD and struggles to fit in with everyone else…she's such a powerful character, and really inspirational.
Hypnos: the dark, mysterious man who is eager to help the group, but carries a secret that he's not sure if he wants known. (I don't want to give away more for fear of spoiling him!)
All these characters are SO COOL, and it's all I can do not to write this in all caps so I can shout their magnificence to you. Each chapter is written from a different characters' perspective. Some books don't pull this off too well…there's always *that* character you don't enjoy reading about. I am happy to say that each one of the characters in THE GILDED WOLVES was so entertaining, I was always excited for the next chapter because I couldn't wait to read from another perspective. Honestly, I wish the book was longer; I enjoyed it that much.
While I enjoyed the world-building immensely, I did become confused at times either because of the many artifacts being discussed or keeping up with the fast-paced action scene at the end. Again, like with most of the books I read, it's nothing a second read-through won't fix.
I hope I did my best not to spoil anything, but still made you want to read THE GILDED WOLVES! This is such a good book, I wouldn't ever want to spoil it because you have to read it for yourself. I haven't ever read any of Roshani Chokshi's books before, although that will change soon, because after reading this I have to see what other books she's written. It's not often I express how genuinely well-written a novel is, especially a YA novel. It seemed like there was the perfect amount of everything in THE GILDED WOLVES; from descriptions, character development, plot twists, setting, and villains! Roshani Chokshi has written a masterpiece that future YA readers will place at the top of the genre's best.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who is a fan of historical fantasy, magic, and roguish characters you won't help but fall in love with.

A CONSPIRACY OF STARS by Olivia A. Cole
(This book was graciously sent by Olivia A. Cole in exchange for an honest review).
{spoiler free!}
A Conspiracy of Stars is an innovative new YA science fiction novel that follows the journey of Octavia, a girl who wants to uncover the mystery surrounding their planet in order to save their society and all the creatures inhabiting their world. ACOS is brilliantly written, captivating, and once you start this book, it will be hard to stop!
Here's a short summary taken from Amazon.com:
(Octavia has always dreamed of becoming a whitecoat, one of the prestigious N'Terra scientists who study the natural wonders of Faloiv. So when the once-secretive labs are suddenly opened to students, she leaps at the chance to see what happens behind their closed doors. However, she quickly discovers that all is not what it seems on Faloiv, and the experiments the whitecoats have been doing run the risk of upsetting the humans' fragile peace with the Faloii, Faloiv's indigenous people. As secret after disturbing secret comes to light, Octavia finds herself on a collision course with the charismatic and extremist new leader of N'Terra's ruling council. But by uncovering the mysteries behind the history she's been taught, the science she's lived by, and the truth about her family, she threatens to be the catalyst for an all-out war.)
I love books that seem to transport me to a new world, and ACOS does just that. The world-building – as well as the descriptions – are enough to give me a vivid picture of the beautiful world of N'Terra, but not enough to bog down the action. In my opinion, that's the best kind of writing; losing the pace of the story is sometimes enough to make one not want to finish the book, but that doesn't happen in ACOS. The whole story is fast-paced and entertaining, and you'll definitely want to stick around until the end to find out what happens to Octavia, Rondo, Alma, and the rest of the characters.
If you're a fan of Fantastic Beasts or Jurassic Park, you'll enjoy A Conspiracy of Stars! The plot focuses on Octavia and her friends being able to finally go to study in the lab they've always dreamed of visiting. There, they discover many new creatures. It was great to have a description of each creature; it helped me individualize them and keep them separate from each other. Even though each creature had a description, I did find myself wondering back to what they were when their names were brought back up later in the story. While I was reading along in the book, I thought it would be so neat if in another edition of ACOS there were small illustrations added in the back of the book that gave a vivid picture of the creatures. (Kind of like a mini visual dictionary, with an illustration, the creatures' names, and small facts about them!) I think that would be a beautiful addition to the book, as well as help keep all the different animals and species straight.
Octavia's mom is a great scientist, and even though Octavia respects her mother, I like that Octavia wasn't trying to follow exactly in her mother's footsteps. I liked that she was making her own path, even if it wasn't the path she necessarily would have chosen (no spoilers here). Octavia's dad is a scientist as well, but he is rather mean, and the reader immediately gets the feeling that he's untrustworthy. While he doesn't have a good attitude through the book (and he makes some unfortunate decisions), I got the feeling that toward the end, he was regretting his actions and would maybe change in the second book. I don't know if that's true or not, but I would love to see Octavia finally have a good father-figure in her life. Alma is such a great character – and a good friend to Octavia. I think I liked her the best, and I would *love* to see her have a bigger role in the next book.
Now, onto Rondo. Rondo is a boy that Octavia had generally avoided because he was strange, As the story progresses, we see Octavia's heart soften and she ends up really liking Rondo. While I like Rondo's character, I wasn't really a fan of Octavia and Rondo's romance. For my tastes, it moved a little too fast. I would have enjoyed seeing their relationship grow over time, instead of it just -*bam*- happening. Honestly, that was the only thing that I didn't like about ACOS. But, Octavia and Rondo are very sweet, and it's a nice, mutual romance.
Toward the end of the story, Octavia meets one of the women indigenous to their planet (called the Faloii). The woman enlists the help of Octavia to free her father, who is being held captive by the Council of N'Terra. Octavia realizes that in order to have a truly perfect society, they need to accept the Faloii and let them have control of their lands once more. I really enjoyed reading about the Faloii and learning more about their culture, as well as the way they communicate (via mindspeak).
If you're looking for an adventure story, political intrigue, vivid landscapes, entertaining characters, and amazing creatures, then ACOS is for you. I would hands-down recommend it for YA fans who don't want to dive into a world full of science fiction elements right off the bat; I know some sci-fi stories can be confusing at times because of all the new terms and fundamentals involved. A Conspiracy of Stars is a delightful book where the sci-fi terms are easy to understand, but still create that sense of wonder when reading them for the first time. Plus, the cover is simply gorgeous! I really hope this book is an option to vote for on Epic Read's Book Shimmy Awards 2019!
Thank you again, Olivia, for sending the book! I really enjoyed it!

Before a New Year can start the current year has to finish. Back in around September, a friend of mine, Austin Haines, with Free Will Dream, committed to doing 100 live Facebook episodes and theme was " "Get Free, Stay Present, and Move Forward!". The goal wasn't really to do one every single day, but in order to do a 100 he pretty much almost needed to do just that. His intention was to help as many people a possible, give freely of his time, and finish the series on December 30, and 31. These last two were going to be very special in that he was inviting those in his circle to come on and share their thoughts about lessons from 2017 and anything they wanted to communicate to his audience to help inspire them. Hoping that everyone would get at least one little nugget from his guests. These guests ranged from life coaches, and entrepreneurs, to professional speakers, and health coaches. He called me and asked me to be on the December 31st event as I am also a Health and Life Coach and of course I said yes.
Then the anxiety began….. Why you ask? Well that's a great question. The last few weeks of the year had been a struggle for me. I was talking a good game, but my actions were not congruent with what I was saying. I had very little desire, and procrastination was the main theme of my days. I hadn't been working my business, I wasn't doing much around the house, I was watching TV and pretty much avoiding doing much of anything. Sure I did some things like Christmas shopping, took the dogs for a walk here and there, and a few other things, but at the end of the day I really wasn't taking action in the direction of my goals and dreams. I was in a down mood and wasn't doing my daily rituals nor was I consistently doing the MKE exercises. I had very little desire and at the same time I really couldn't figure out why I was feeling that way I was, and at the same time, I wasn't doing much to get myself out of the funk I was in.
Which brings me back to being a guest on Austin's special Live FB event on New Years Eve 2017. He had put in so much work over the course of those first 98 live events. It was freaking inspiring to watch him stay the course and keep his commitment. Live FB after live FB. I didn't get a chance to watch all of them, but I was able to see and participate in about 15-20 of them. He persisted even when it was tough, even in times when he wasn't having a very good day, and I'm sure at times didn't really feel like doing it. The interactions with his audience was great and you can hear in his voice that he truly cares about helping others and he poured his heart out to his audience every night.
His guests on Saturday, December 30th were all terrific. They all brought their "A" game; you could feel their energy and that they were living what they talked about. And that is what hit me the hardest. I felt these people were living their advice, living what they were talking about. And here I am not being congruent. I had prepared a few points and things that I wanted to share as well a key lesson from 2017 and a key point to take into 2018. But the more I thought about it the more I felt I couldn't speak. I was not living what I was about to talk about. I hated to text him and let him know that I had to back out, but I just didn't feel right about it. Do as I say, not as I do? Not cool! It just would not be right. I would not be speaking with integrity and thus I decided to back out. I've not yet explained to him why I decided not to participate, but I feel really bad. I missed an opportunity to help him and his audience.
That weighed heavily on me this week. That I was not doing the things I should be doing to accomplish my goals and dreams. In the evening of New Years Eve, I decided one thing that I was going to do in order to help get me out of this crap state I've been in. The T.V. has been my way of procrastinating and a way to keep me right where I was emotionally. In AA there's something called 90 in 90; 90 AA meetings in 90 days. It helps keep especially those just starting their sobriety journey to be immersed in the program and keep them focused on their sobriety. The T.V. was having the exact opposite effect on me and giving me an excuse to not do a damn thing and to actually slip backwards; my attitude, my emotional state, my desire to do things, etc. So I took this 90 in 90 concept I learned from AA and committed to absolutely NO T.V. for 90 days. I stopped recording programs, and deleted a bunch I had yet to watch on the DVR. Starting Jan 1, 2018 was my timeline. I needed a line in the sand and New Years Day was a great one to take advantage of.
So, here I am, day 5 of 90 and things are beginning to shift. It's crazy how my habits revolve around T.V. I have a lot of thoughts about doing something and then turning it on. Then my next thought is, nope that ain't happening because you committed to 90 days. Then I ask OK what can I do that is productive with that time and then I start doing that. At times I find myself doing other things to procrastinate instead of taking action towards my goals and dreams, but that is happening less and less. My attitude and emotional state is changing back into being excited, joyous, grateful, and blessed. This is who I truly am!
Living with integrity, walking my talk, growing and being my best every day, inspiring and helping others transform their own life; this is what is in my heart and this is where I feel at home and at peace. This I will persist to be and I will succeed!

Nutrition project on course? - An impact assessment by the Technical University of Munich
Do the nutrition knowledge and eating habits of children who look after a school garden change? Yes! This has been found out by the Technical University of Munich in an impact assessment commissioned by the BayWa Foundation. The researchers wanted to find out what effect a school garden has on the health and development of the children.
To do so, they visited schools in autumn 2016 that did not yet have a school garden and made various assessments: What kind of knowledge do the children already have about nutrition, how fit are they and what about their health? In the following year, half of these schools received a school garden from the BayWa Foundation, and then the assessments were carried out again - both at the schools with a school garden and those without a school garden. The comparison is intended to show if and how successful a school garden is for the nutrition education of children.

Best 11 Stuff that Place a man Away within the Initial phases of the Romantic relationship Or even Relationship
This short article will appear just about all damaging. The simple truth is there are numerous reasons for ladies which males discover appealing. Various males, discover various things appealing. There is a typical quantity of stuff that the majority of males don't discover appealing in regards to a lady. I am referring to a man that is buying long-term romantic relationship rather than man that wants simply informal intercourse.
1) She is needy, unconfident
The majority of males may endure a female becoming needy within the later on areas of the connection. However in the first components in the event that your woman seems needy, he will wish to operate the kilometer. Recommending that you will get hitched or even preparing relocating collectively is simply to be honest frightening. Text messaging or even contacting forty occasions each day along with each and every small be concerned you might have can also be really extreme. This can make him or her really feel as if you're obstructing their existence and also you tend to be essentially likely to not really allow him or her access it together with his function or even interpersonal existence together with his buddies.
2) Actively playing difficult to obtain (the reverse in order to clingy)
Indeed, even though no doubt you've already been recommended through lots of additional publications or even internet sites which actively playing difficult to obtain may be the move to make, these were incorrect for me. Indeed, you should not provide your self on the dish simply because that's dull, however, you definitely should not perform difficult to obtain possibly, you have to look for a devote in between. Text messaging back again several hours or even times later on in order to just about any textual content, simply simply leaves him or her discouraged as well as can make him or her believe you're simply not which fascinated. Less several hours later on, however should you wait around in order to textual content him or her times later on which will critically irritate him or her. He will after that begin to believe you aren't which thinking about him or her, he will begin to evaluation exactly how he or she seems regarding a person and can arrived at the final outcome he does not have sufficient proof to exhibit he is thinking about a person, neither you are looking at him or her. The end result is going to be which he will obtain therefore discouraged as well as bored stiff which he will believe, will i possess a much better choice? In the event that he or she does not have a much better choice at that time over time, you'll be able to wager he will venture out presently there to check out a much better choice. In the event that he or she will you'll be able to wager he will simply obtain bored stiff associated with waiting around that you should end up being real and can begin relationship additional females rather. Males keep lots of choices within book, therefore do not get satisfied.
Men choose sluggish improvement, however they usually wish to observe improvement, when they observe points, heading in reverse or even these people strike the large rock walls as well as wind up not really obtaining any kind of improvement, which hits the men exhilaration concerning the romantic relationship. He may wake up and begin once again several times in the event that he is which decided however he will ultimately simply quit as well as really feel it is 1 advance as well as 2 actions back again constantly. The actual improvement is really a men exhilaration, reduce which improvement away as well as he will turn out to be bored stiff as well as discouraged. If you perform this awesome, after that you'll probably awesome him or her lower as well as help to make him or her much less warm for you personally.
I have handled about this within additional content articles as well as described the reason why additional publications as well as internet sites appear to possess misunderstood or even misrepresented actively playing difficult to obtain.
For me it's this that actively playing difficult to obtain will. Rather than viewing a female like a possibility of an extended phrase romantic relationship a female that performs difficult to obtain frustrates a man. Men can't stand dropping, so that they after that begin to see the lady being an thrilling problem. Consciously these people nevertheless begin to see the lady because appealing and obtain the stop from the excitement associated with chasing after the girl, however sub-consciously the girl offers shown through irritating him or her and never becoming the woman's real personal which she's not really correct long-term (after just about all your woman has not behaved himself, therefore offers he or she obtained a genuine image associated with the woman's? ). A few men can give upward whenever a lady performs difficult to obtain simply because they will understand which lady actively playing difficult to obtain never proved helpful previously. Additional men may keep on the process associated with chasing after the woman's, after that all of a sudden whenever your woman drops with regard to him or her, he or she manages to lose curiosity. The girl after that believes she is dropped him or her simply because she is after that appeared as well eager simply because she is dropped with regard to him or her. However truly your woman dropped him or her simply because your woman didn't behave the woman's real personal in early stages as well as very first thoughts depend to some man. Therefore females end up being your self, do not adhere to a few manual which lets you know to do something as if you ought to perform difficult to obtain. Do not provide your self on the dish, however do not perform difficult to obtain possibly, simply proceed points in the pace you're confident with. If your man surface finishes a person, it is because he or she thinks you aren't befitting one another, do not help to make points more difficult through doing offers that you simply believe may conquer each and every man on the planet (that's difficult! ).
3) She is the 'drama queen' (creating crisis, actually when there is none)
I have reached acknowledge, it's occasionally enjoyable hearing ladies whinging regarding small niggles. Nevertheless it begins to obtain a little bit tiresome, whenever your woman begins producing individuals small niggles in to large problems. Suddenly somebody states "hello" in order to the woman's, after that suddenly your woman looks at this to be stated within the incorrect modulation of voice. After that your woman begins exercising the reason why she or he stated "hello" for the reason that modulation of voice. A tale produced regarding the reason why that individual dislikes the woman's a lot and it is right now becoming bitchy in the direction of the woman's. After that suddenly your woman begins making tales about this individual, stating exactly how she/he will this particular which. After that your woman simply functions himself right into a craze as well as begins contacting as well as text messaging just about all the woman's buddies to express he/she do this particular which. Gosh, such a crisis!
Another component of it's he or she states or even will some thing incorrect within the woman's viewpoint. After that your woman will go peaceful, begins sulking upon him or her. He or she does not have the idea exactly what he is carried out incorrect, within their viewpoint he or she has not stated or even carried out something incorrect, simply because she is misunderstood or even believed too a lot regarding some thing he is stated. He or she requires the woman's what is incorrect, your woman sulkily states absolutely nothing. After that stays the following couple weeks having a lengthy encounter. After that suddenly your woman bursts, adopts the angry trend as well as each and every small point that is discouraged the woman's previously couple weeks arrives associated with the woman's mouth area inside a angry trend.
11) As well hectic for any romantic relationship
It requires considerable time for any man to consider someplace to visit having a lady, think about several appropriate occasions as well as times with regard to him or her to satisfy along with the woman's. After that to really possess the guts in order to possibly telephone as well as textual content the woman's as well as danger becoming bumped back again. It would appear that the current day time lady possibly does not have much time for you to extra nowadays with regard to men otherwise is actually doing offers along with him or her. He or she cell phones upward as well as requires in the event that your woman choices conference upward, he or she will get 1 of 2 solutions.
A) Your woman states, absolutely no I am hectic which day time, I will a fitness center. Therefore he or she believes likely to a fitness center, your woman will go presently there 5 evenings per week certainly your woman may extra 1 evening in order to encounter me personally. However attempting to have patience as well as work out along with the woman's, he or she states nicely how about this particular evening, your woman states, oh yea I am seeing my personal buddies which evening, he or she states okay. Ultimately following a couple of attempts he or she provides within and states perhaps we are able to set up an additional period in a few days, I will provide you with a diamond ring (pissed away, embarrassed bloke, that actually won't diamond ring a person! ).
He or she places the telephone lower as well as begins to consider exactly what your woman stated. Within their thoughts she is informing him or her she is not really fascinated, he or she provided a few options your woman did not appear fascinated, your woman did not provide him or her what other times. The largest error of is actually your woman views likely to a fitness center 5 evenings per week is really a much better choice compared to conference upward along with him or her 1 nights the actual 7 days. The end result is actually, he will rapidly understand you're nor thinking about him or her, irritated regarding conference upward along with him or her as well as even though you tend to be you have simply switched him or her removed from seeking an extended phrase romantic relationship anyhow. You're not capable of settling along with him or her, that is an essential a part of an extended phrase romantic relationship. You have relocated inside a brief period of time through becoming adequate with regard to him or her to boost the actual guts in order to request a person away a good to start dating ?, in order to becoming dull as well as unappealing in order to him or her. Their next thing would be to think about their choices along with an additional lady.
B) He or she cell phones upward arranges to start dating ? as well as time for you to fulfill the woman's, will get ready to proceed. After that an hour or so prior to, your woman text messaging stating i'm sorry, reached perform the actual horticulture or even the actual house work these days. That will piss a man away much more compared to final situation. Not just do a person accept get together after that cancel finally moment (probably following he is informed individuals, exactly how embarrassed can you really feel! ), he or she set aside time for you personally and thus most likely rejected provides through buddies, however, you additionally piss him or her away much more through stating you're hectic performing horticulture or even house work. Using the very first choice presently there could possibly be considered a shine associated with wish he would provide you with a 2nd opportunity. With this particular choice, he would need to be the heck of the individual man in order to endure this sort of irritation.
It is incredible the number of ladies request me personally exactly what they have carried out incorrect with this situation (female buddies the ones about this internet site), these people really do not observe how it could actually end up being categorised because dealing with a man terribly. Surprisingly, I have experienced lots of ladies get in touch with me personally once again following dishing me personally the above mentioned situations, asking yourself the reason why I am not really getting in touch with all of them any longer! I have generally managed to move on through the period these people get in touch with me personally as well as discovered another person who's dealing with me personally far better. The moment a man enters the above mentioned procedure, the actual lengthier it requires for any lady to make contact with him or her once again the greater unappealing he'll observe the woman's as well as the much more likely he or she will not provide the woman's any kind of thing to consider any longer, even though your woman will choose to try.
Therefore ladies, term associated with caution, without having period for any man, do not anticipate him or her to provide you with anymore period seeing a person. If you cannot allow it to be on the specific day do not provide him or her worthless excuses, possess some good excuses (family events, loved ones turmoil and so on, not really likely to a fitness center or even performing the actual horticulture, that you can do all of them any kind of day time from the week). Should you choose wish to observe him or her once again, provide him or her an alternative solution day when you are able fulfill him or her. Should you choose help to make the actual error to do among the over. Telephone him or her back again as quickly as possible after you have considered several times that you could get together. Think me personally, the actual lengthier a person allow him or her believe you aren't fascinated the actual faster he will move ahead in order to considering additional females and also the much more not likely he will consider a person back again. Never create a man wait around a lot more than fourteen days to determine a person unless of course there is unexpected conditions. Whether it's eliminated over which bi weekly tag, after that he will possess overlooked that which you had been such as as well as points will need to begin right from the start once again or even most detrimental of, he will have bored stiff as well as discovered another person.

A Stroll Through Stockholm
Have you ever heard the term, "Stockholm Syndrome"? By definition, it refers to a condition where a victim falls in love with his/her captor. The term has somehow been associated with the city of Stockholm (because the term was coined due to an event that occurred in Stockholm). As a kid, I remember hearing "Stockholm … Continue reading

A Holiday in Helsinki (Finland)
When you think of "Helsinki" or "Finland", what comes to mind?

Because why wouldn't you imagine a cartoon snowman when you think … Continue reading

Neighbourhood PR
Acclaimed UK House Duo Gorgon City team up with the platinum selling and genre-defining US producer, DJ and remixer MK (Marc Kincen) for a slice of vocal-house heaven on 'There For You'.
The summer release of 'There For You' comes fresh from a stream of successful dance floor focused productions this year from the prolific Gorgon City including 'Lick Shot', 'Delicious' and 'Elizabeth Street'; all released via their own REALM imprint. Along with their solo productions, Gorgon City recently teamed up with US dance royalty Kaskade on the track 'Go Slow'. The collaboration that featured the rising vocalist Roméo is currently at #1 in the US Billboard Dance chart.
It's been an incredible 12 months for Gorgon City following the release of their sophomore album 'Escape' in August 2018. Having had an incredible sold out performance at London's Printworks in addition to some highly praised sets at Coachella and EDC Vegas, along with playing for 4,500 fans at their REALM event at the Brooklyn Mirage, the pair are currently in the midst of their summer Ibiza residency with Defected at Eden. With further REALM events forthcoming at San Francisco's The Midway and San Diego's Petco Park, Gorgon City and are also prepping for performances at Damian Lazarus' 'Get Lost' event in Israel along with a huge debut at London's Tobacco Dock on Oct 19th.
'There For You' comes in the midst of a hugely busy summer for MK who has been touring the Area10 brand to some of the world's most sought-after party locations including Parklife, Creamfields and Scotland's EH-1. Responsible for creating some of the defining sounds and biggest tracks of early house music, MK has recently released the summer hit 'Body 2 Body' which has racked up more than 5 million combined streams to date. Last year MK's gold-selling single "Back & Forth", peaked at #12 in the Official UK Top 40 Singles Chart and remains a mainstay on streaming playlists everywhere.
No strangers to creative and successful collaborations, MK & Gorgon City have each achieved close to 1 billion global streams, and more than10 million in global track sales across their careers to date. Gorgon City's top 10 debut album 'Sirens' features their top 5 hit 'Ready For Your Love' and massive singles 'Go All Night' ft Jennifer Hudson, 'Unmissable', 'Real' and 'Imagination'.
Loaded with MK's signature piano melodies and blended with a versatile vocal direction, 'There for You' is undoubtedly both a celebration and testament to the hard work that the talented and well-oiled London duo & Detroit mastermind have put in over the last decade.
Both Gorgon City and MK are giants amongst house music hitmakers and 'There For You' is set for further dominance across dance floors and airwaves.

The Mold removal specialists are now here in Sherwood Park

The key to reducing the spread of mold and minimizing mold removal costs is a rapid and appropriate response by IICRC certified experienced mold remediation specialists.
IPC is proud to be offering one of our many services to Sherwood Park!
For mold to grow it requires moisture. The sources of moisture could be washing, cooking, condensation, air humidifiers or slow leaks from plumbing. Poor ventilation contributes to higher humidity in your home or commercial property which leads to condensation which also allows mold growth.
All types of active mold release spores into the air. These spores are small enough that you and your family can inhale them. Inhalation of spores poses high risk of respiratory problems.
Since IPC Restoration and Renovation has brought our services to Sherwood Park, we have noticed that mold and fungi were prevalent on a lot of properties.
Dealing with mold is a high risk dangerous task. If not property equip you can pose great health risks as well as make the mold infestation worse.
IPC's staff is fully certified with industry standard equipment. We are mold removal specialists.
If you come across mold anywhere in Sherwood Park, you should not be fooled into thinking that you can handle mold on your own. It is better you contact us to assist in completely eradicating this problem. Allergic reactions are one of the most common problems that arise from being exposed to mold. Mold has also been linked to other problems such as respiratory system failure, asthma, and respiratory issues.
If you are based in Sherwood Park and has discovered or suspect mold due to a musty smell, give us a call today or fill out our online estimate request form.

Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
Sherlock and John investigate the ghosts of a young man who has been seeing monstrous hounds out in the woods where his father died.
Characters are great and the humor is strong in this one but the plot is just a tab too silly for it to be considered a great episode. Still, a very good one definitely worth watching! I love Cumberbatch so much in this series its insane!
I have to agree with Zachary below, more than anything this episode reminded me of a BBC update of "The X-Files" - what with our two mismatched investigators, dressed in black and investigating a seemingly paranormal occurrence in the countryside. Overall, it's one of the weaker Sherlock episodes since it really does just follow a 'monster of the week' formula. Still, an elegant time-waster.
It's pretty ludicrous and absurd, and unlike The Blind Banker which held a tighter reign on the absurdity, The Hounds of Baskerville is almost like an episode of The X-Files. But, boy is it a lot of fun. Government conspiracies, genetic engineering, monsters and mayhem! I love it!
Fun yet sort of predictable. Still this is an important episode that defines how Sherlock & John relationship has become.
4 - Before the abominable aberration that was Season 4 (whose reversal of this point was its single positive quality), there were three things in life that were completely inescapable: death, taxes (unless you're rich), and the soul-crushing mediocrity of any given mid-season Sherlock episode.
This is my personal favourite episode of Sherlock. It's a great horror episode, Russell Tovey does a fantastic job at playing a guy who fears so much. This is just a stellar episode that got away from all the things holding Sherlock down.
Weaker case, but makes up for it by bringing the deductive sequences to a new level
Well, apparently this is one of the worst for the general viewers. Yet, this was one of the most engaging episodes to me so far. Me and my bad taste!

Kappa Frater Richard Williams named interim director of athletics at Albany State
Albany State University officials have announced personnel changes in the Department of Athletics.
Dr. Richard H. Williams has been named interim director of athletics at Albany State, ASU President Dr. Everette J. Freeman has announced.
Williams, who currently serves as ASU's Faculty Athletics Representative and chair of the Department of Health, Physical Education and Recreation (HPER), will replace Dr. Joshua W. Murfree, who has resigned to take the position as superintendent of the Dougherty County School System in Albany, effective June 7.
Murfree was named athletics director in April 2007, after serving a year as interim director. He was also executive assistant to the president, administrative chief of staff and interim vice president for Student Affairs.
In a letter e-mailed to ASU students, employees, alumni and friends, Murfree wrote, "I have enjoyed my work in multiple positions and have attempted to be efficient in all of them…I leave this campus with a wealth of knowledge and experiences that will benefit me now and later in my future endeavors.
Williams will oversee the management of Albany State's 11-sport program, which includes football, volleyball, baseball, softball, women's tennis and men and women's basketball, cross country and track and field.
"The opportunity to serve as the interim athletics director at ASU is a very exciting and rewarding opportunity," Williams said. "Having a grandmother and father (who played football, baseball, basketball, and ran track) who are both alumnus, I consider this a huge honor to assist in the great Golden Rams legacy here at Albany State University."
A Thomasville, Ga. native, Williams earned the Doctorate of Education degree in Exercise Science/Muscle Physiology in 2002, master's degree in Education in 1997, and bachelor's degree in Education in 1995, all from The University of Georgia.
He was named chair of the HPER Department in 2007, after serving two years as a professor and chair of the HPER Department at Langston University in Langston, Okla.
From 2002-2005, Williams served as a post-doctoral researcher in the Fellowship in Research and Science Teaching (FIRST) program in the Department of Physiology at Emory University's School of Medicine.
As a FIRST fellow, Williams completed his post-doctoral teaching at Emory's Rollins School of Public Health in the Department of Behavioral Science and Health Education; and at Morehouse College in the Department of Biology and Physical Education.
Dr. Williams' research agenda focuses on Neuromuscular Physiology and Minority Health Disparities of Adolescents and Adults.
Active in numerous professional, civic, and social organizations, Williams is a member of the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance, the American College of Sports Medicine, and the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education. He is also a member of Mount Zion Baptist Church of Albany, Ga., and an active member of the Albany Alumni Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc.

There is growing interest amongst members of the Tamil diaspora in contributing their time and professional expertise in a meaningful manner to develop and empower vulnerable communities in war-affected, developing, rural, and remote regions of Sri Lanka. However, it is often difficult for these individuals to identify and connect with credible local community-based organisations in Sri Lanka. comdu.it is a growing global network of diaspora changemakers committed to the sustainable development of the traditional Tamil homelands in Sri Lanka.

Magnetic ball toy is used to create various shapes and designs. They are used in science projects, as a decoration item, as desk toy, and in many other contexts. Even though the package contains instructions on how to align the balls, getting familiar with using these magnetic balls can be a bit confusing for beginners. So to help you out, here are some guidelines on how to make a sphere with magnetic toys.
1. Make A Straight Line
To begin with, make a single line with all the magnetic balls. By the end of this process, you will get a rough idea about how they work.
2. Create Small Triangles
Separate nine balls from the line and make it to a small circle. After creating the circle, you can easily convert it into a triangle.
3. Arrange The Triangles
Make 24 triangles using the magnetic ball toy and then arrange them into four vertical lines. Each line would contain 6 triangles each.
4. Align The Triangles
Take four triangles each and align them together into 'U' shape. Repeat making similar shapes using all the triangles you have made. Now you will have six 'U' shapes ready for the next alignment.
5. Make A Spiral Shape
Get three 'U' shaped magnetic ball toy sets and align them together to create a spiral shape. Note that some balls may not stick to each other. If that happens, change the side of the shape and try to align again.
6. Make A Hexogen
The spiral shaped thing need to be further aligned to create a hexogen. Get hold of the triangle from every edge of the hexogen and make it to face opposite side.
7. Make A Star
When you have four triangles sticking out of the hexagon, form it to a pentagon. Again, find out the triangles on the edges and stick them. Repeat this for all the triangles and you will now get a shape somewhat like a star.
8. Fill The Gaps
The next step is filling up the gaps inside this star shaped set. Use the four remaining triangles for this. Make sure that each magnetic ball toy is properly fit into its position. With the remaining balls, you can add make a stand for the sphere.
That's it! You have made a sphere with your magnetic balls set. Remember this is one of the most basic things you can do with them. You can make any shape or design with these balls – your imagination is the limit.
