In eight wide-ranging and penetrating essays, Asim explores such topics as the twisted legacy of jokes and falsehoods in black life; the importance of black fathers and community; the significance of black writers and stories; and the beauty and pain of the black body. What emerges is a rich portrait of a community and culture that has resisted, survived, and flourished despite centuries of racism, violence, and trauma.
"A fantastic essay collection... Blending personal reflection with historical analysis and cultural and literary criticism, these essays are a sharp, illuminating response to the nation's continuing racial conflicts."--Ron Charles, The Washington Post
"A collection of essays that go wide and deep into the black experience in America. Asim brings an impressive breadth of experience to these pieces. He places current events within the context of a legacy that is literary, political, and cultural, as well as racial, with a voice that is both compelling and convincing. A sharp vision that challenges readers to shift perspective and examine conventional narratives." --Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

Bitter winters are nothing new in Hatchet Inlet, hard up against the ridge of the Laurentian Divide, but the advent of spring can't thaw the community's collective grief, lingering since a senseless tragedy the previous fall. What is different this year is what's missing: Rauri Paar, the last private landowner in the Reserve, whose annual emergence from his remote iced-in islands marks the beginning of spring and the promise of a kinder season.
The town's residents gather at the local diner and, amid talk of spring weather, the latest gossip, roadkill, and the daily special, take bets on when Rauri will appear—or imagine what happened to him during the long and brutal winter. Retired union miner and widower Alpo Lahti is about to wed the diner's charming and lively waitress, Sissy Pavola, but, with Rauri still unaccounted for, celebration seems premature. Alpo's son Pete struggles to find his straight and narrow, then struggles to stay on it, and even Sissy might be having second thoughts.
Weaving in and out of each other's reach, trying hard to do their best (all the while wondering what that might be), the residents of this remote town in all their sweetness and sorrow remind us once more of the inescapable lurches of the heart and unexpected turns of our human comedy.
"Hilarious, smart, moving, and kind, Laurentian Divide is good for the soul, or anyway, it was good for mine."—Richard Russo
"There aren't many writers on the planet who can take a reader's heart apart and put it back together again with the sureness of Sarah Stonich, who does exactly that over and over again in Laurentian Divide, her best yet. Funny and wise in equal measure, here's a novel for everyone. What a treasure." —Peter Geye, author of Wintering
"With seamless grace, Sarah Stonich has again woven the towering majesty of Minnesota's Arrowhead Country with the endearing miscellany of its denizens, creating a tapestry both elegant and earthy. Here, reader, are joy and artistry."—Faith Sullivan, author of Good Night, Mr. Wodehouse
"Laurentian Divide is rich, funny, and overflowing with life—Sarah Stonich at the top of her powers."—Will Weaver, author of Sweet Land
"It was a pleasure to spend time with these characters again and see the family they have created within their community. Sarah Stonich's beautiful prose, sly humor, and obvious fondness for her subject matter make Laurentian Divide a must-read."—Pamela Klinger-Horn, Excelsior Bay Books

As if being stuffed into last year's dress pants at his cousin's wake weren't uncomfortable enough, thirteen-year-old Jimmy has just learned from his mother that he has to say a few words at the funeral the next day. Why him? What could he possibly say about his cousin, who ruined everything they did? He can't recall one birthday party, family gathering, or school event with Patrick that didn't result in injury or destruction. As Jimmy attempts to navigate the odd social norms of the wake, he draws on humor, heartfelt concern, and a good deal of angst while racking his brain and his memory for a decent and meaningful memory to share. But it's not until faced with a microphone that the realization finally hits him: it's not the words that are spoken that matter the most, but those that are truly heard.
"Here is a promise: if you begin reading SPEECHLESS (Schmitt's debut), you will finish it. The premise is so unique and so compelling, you will likely need strength to stop yourself from peeking at the final pages." --Christopher Rose, HugoBooks, Newburyport, MA

|Quick and Dirty follows the decline of a mentally unstable 25 year old. In short, this man believes he must return to kindergarten in order to get his life back in order. But things don't go so well when he tries to spend a day at Greene Elementary.
Quick and Dirty By Devin B. Wieland Recently I heard the saying, Everything I need to know I learned in kindergarten. And it made me think that I must have missed something. I was alone at my kitchen table on a Tuesday morning. I always eat breakfast alone. Not because I want to, just because there hasn't ever been anyone that has wanted to dine with someone like me. Sometimes I wonder why I even have more than one chair at the table, it only serves to remind me that there is no one sitting across from me. It was quiet in the kitchen that morning. I sat in the silence and thought about the night before. I had done some things I shouldn't have, and the police had warned me that if I caused any more trouble, things wouldn't be good for me. It started when I decided to go out for dinner. I was by myself and I chose to try the buffet just down the street. Dinner was fine, but when I asked the waiter for a take-home box, that's when things got out of hand. Apparently the diner didn't give take-home boxes because it was a buffet and, naturally, they didn't want people taking home full meals. But I had paid for my meal, and so what if I felt like eating it later. Anyway, I ended up talking to the manager, but he only reiterated what the waiter had told me. So I hit him. Then some of the other men in the restaurant were getting up from their tables and coming towards me, so I grabbed a handful of food from the buffet line and headed out the door. I had enjoyed the leftovers for breakfast that morning. After that I was just sitting at the table and looking at the empty chairs. Some time passed, then I got up from my seat and arranged the chairs more neatly. I admired the perfect symmetry in silence for a few moments. Then I opened the window of my second story apartment and through two of the wooden chairs out of it. I waited for the crash of the chairs hitting the pavement below, then I closed the window. There were still two chairs at the table, one for me, and on just in case I ever found someone that wanted to eat with me. But I knew that the only way that would ever happen was if I could find out what I had missed in kindergarten. I would always be alone and unsuccessful unless I could figure out what everyone else had learned in kindergarten that made their lives so much better than mine. I sat back down at the table and put my head in my hands. I was losing control and I knew it. I remember sitting there and thinking that it had to happen today, otherwise I couldn't go on. I was tired of working at fast food restaurants or at the laundromat, but most of all, I was sick of being alone. I looked at my watch and realized that I needed to leave for work, but I didn't move. Going to work wouldn't get me out of the cycle I was stuck in. My job was pointless and I worked with other people who hadn't paid attention in kindergarten. No, in order to break this cycle, I would need to backtrack. So I decided to do just that. Instead of going to work, which was currently at Arby's, I would go back to kindergarten for a day. Maybe I should have thought about this decision a little longer, but my mind was made up and I was out the door before I realized what I was getting into. My parents gave me a car for my sixteenth birthday. I thanked them profusely for it, then I drove away in the night and never went back home. But that was ten years ago, now I was about to start making them proud. I was lucky that the car was still running, after all, it was older then I was. But without it I would have been taking the bus, and even that would have been hard for me to afford. After about ten minutes of driving, I came to the stoplight where I normally turned right to go to work, but today I went left. There was an elementary school a few miles down the road. I think it was called Greene Elementary, but I can't be sure because I didn't check it's credentials before deciding to go there. I parked in the back of the parking lot and waited for the busses to get there. I had Hoped that there would be some other adults who were going back to kindergarten that day, but when the busses started unloading, I realized that all of the students were very young. I was a little Click here to read the rest of this story (152 more lines)

Here's a little clip that allows you to hear just what the new Alpine A110 sounds like at idle (and with a little revving). It sounds even nicer in the cabin when under load.
Anything interesting with an engine
Here's a little clip that allows you to hear just what the new Alpine A110 sounds like at idle (and with a little revving). It sounds even nicer in the cabin when under load.
Following on from my previous post you can go for the cheaper method of making your V8 Vantage loud. By removing Fuse 22 you stop the butterfly valve in the exhaust from closing below 4,000rpm, therefore making the car louder on lower revs. You can hear the difference by watching the video above.
I think the Aston Martin V8 Vantage sounds pretty great when stock, but this Quicksilver exhaust upgrade sounds pretty fantastic too.
Some of the most interesting upcoming cars have been caught testing at the Nurburgring including the Velar SVR (featuring JLR's phenomenal V8), the new AM Vanquish/DBS, 8-series, Supra and Cullinan.
The Land Rover Defender is an icon in the car world, and they can be very effective at the job they were built to do. Sometimes though, people wish they were a bit faster and do something like the owner of this car has and put a big V8 in the place of the 2.2 diesel it came with. Not only does it make an awesome noise but it also looks pretty quick!
In this video you get to hear the new Vantage start up, rev and even crackle. Obviously its not like listening to the car in the flesh but it does give you a good idea of just how good it will sound. I had a chance to have a sit in the car when it was touring the AM main dealers and I think it looks pretty incredible.
I came across this video a couple of weeks ago and thought it was pretty incredible, as its not often that you get the chance to see many millions of pounds worth of Aston Martins messing around in a huge warehouse. The 'warehouse' in question is the facility that has become AM's Newport Pagnell factory, before it was fitted out. Give this one a watch (and a listen!) because it is pretty epic.

Below are a few things I often go over with couples who ask about doing an engagement session.
What is an engagement session? It's kind of like a date, but with little ol' me following you around with a camera asking you to cuddle and smooch for about an hour. I know these things can be a little awkward at first, but I promise we'll have fun and you'll be amazed at the results. I'll be coaching you through the process while giving good posing tips along the way. It's meant to be a relaxing time, so don't stress. Put on something nice and I'll do the rest.
Allowing this extra time before the wedding day will allow us two things; one, we'll be way more comfortable working together because trust has been established and two, you'll have amazing pictures to look back on and remember why you fell in love.
Your engagement session can be a simple walk through the park or we can take our time and head to the hills for a relaxing scenic adventure. I am always open to new locations and would love to hear your ideas. If you need suggestions I'd be happy to give them.
The best time to take pictures is during spring or fall when the Central Valley is coolest and most scenic. You can take your engagement pictures as soon as you want or a month from your wedding day. Some couples choose to create "Save the Date" invitations and will need to have their session done much sooner.
An engagement session doesn't have to be another big expense added to your budget. In fact, I'll offer a free session when booking a full day's wedding coverage with me! This session is so important that I would rather invest a little time upfront than get to the wedding day and feel out of sync.
Some couples have already decided on doing an engagement session and would like to upgrade their session to something more scenic with a wardrobe change. Upgrades factor in travel and length of a session. Please contact me for details and pricing.
Did I miss anything? Do you have more questions? Or just need more time to decide? Let's set up a consultation and chat!

Numerology Reading
Any individual that can have their solid train of thoughts and opinions goes through a phase in life where they ask questions about the world that no one can ever really answer for them. The curiosity behind the need to know what this world is and how it functions, about what life is, and why what happens, happens is common, and we are all familiar with it.
For some of these individuals, the answers lie in numerology readings. Numerology readings and predictions can help answer questions about love, health, relationships, family, politics, and even take some of us on a journey of self-awareness. But what is numerology and why the hype surrounding it? How does it work? Where lie its origins? What can it answer and what can it not? How can it possibly help your love life? We address all these questions and more in this article. Continue reading to know more about numerology readings than you will be able to, anywhere else.
What is Numerology Reading?
Numerology is the art of interpreting numbers and determining the functionalities of human beings as well as the world using these numbers. It is a study that finds the relationship between numbers and personality trait or character tendencies.
Numerology reading is thought to use the characters in a name along with the date of births and so forth, using all these characters and numbers to determine about a person their personality traits, their motivation, their career, the romantic inside of them, their hidden talents and their luck.
The science behind it is very complex, however; we will discuss some of the details. For example, explaining numerology compatibility and what that compatibility determines about the romantic sides of each horoscope. We will also discuss a general idea of where numerology comes from and some simple concepts such as challenge number, positive number and so forth. Continue reading to know your horoscope numerology as well as more general numerology predictions.
A Short History
What is curious about numerology is that its origin is unknown. We only know that early Egyptians and Babylonians believed in the power of numbers. It is also believed that Pythagoras had to do a lot with it and due to his influence more Greek mathematicians and philosophers were interested in the concept and might have been the reason for promotion. Although the history of numerology is mostly unknown, it is instinctual of humans to feel the power of numbers, and maybe that is why numerology has been around for a millennium.
How Numerology Reading Works
To be able to talk about each horoscope's numerology predictions we need to understand some simple and straightforward concepts of numerology to lay out the context and the prerequisite information necessary to get what is beings aid about each horoscope. Well, numerology reading comes from understanding numbers, so we are going to be discussing some of the most important and prominent kinds of numbers.
Life path numbers are the most major kind of numbers in any numerology reading.
It is the central focus in a person's life and whenever understanding a person's numerology we first calculate the life path number. After that comes the Expression. This is the number that represents the potentials of a person and their nature.
The last kind of number is called the Soul. This number represents the innate nature of the individual and shows us what the person wants to do or be. The life path happens to be the most important. Further on we will lay some context for the life path number.
Some important Numbers:
As we delve into the life path number, we realize there is a need to understand the meaning of positive and challenge numbers, especially what the numbers 0, 1, 2 and 3 represent.
Challenge Numbers
These numbers definitions represent the different kinds of challenges that certain personalities face. We discuss this for zero, one and two.
Challenge Zero
This is the period of your life that brings you challenges that you can perfectly well deal with if you have enough control over your personality. This means that the challenge is not very hard, but the nature of the challenge is unique to your specific nature and capabilities. Your analytical skills are still highly functional and very much on point. One can even say that the challenge at hand truly is not the problem rather the test of whether or not you have the control over your abilities that you can and should have.
Challenge One
This is a different kind of challenge that very commonly occurs in numerology readings. This challenge means you are a sensitive person whose actions are highly affected by the opinion of the people around you. This means that you may be very hesitant to speak up or speak in general in front of people who you look up to or think are smarter than you. You are very afraid of being laughed at and embarrassing yourself in front of other people is one of your nightmares.
Challenge Two:
This challenge is for people who underestimate themselves. Encountering this challenge means constant hate for yourself, looking at yourself and a loss of self-esteem. This may or may not be due to any actual reasons. There are moments when you cannot stand your reflection in the mirror. Underestimating yourself, hating yourself and thinking every other person better than your self-are some of the major characteristics of such a challenge.
Positive Numbers
This will be a much shorter section as the positive numbers are very straightforward. After this, we can immediately move on to the role of a numerology reading in one's romantic life.
Positive zero does not exist
Number 1 – This individual has an independent and a leader's characteristics. They are pioneering, romantic, very caring and have an individual personality.
Cooperating, adaptable, considering, great partners, spontaneous.
Love Numerology
Love and romance is an important part of any person's life. We discuss in detail how each horoscope's numerology reading declared them compatible with what, whom and why. Horoscope numerology may also be discussed to a certain level as we delve into love, romance and sexual lives of these horoscopes. Numerology compatibility is important and necessary to know before getting into a relationship or before making any decision regarding any relationship.
Fire Signs and Love in Numerology
Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius are known to be Fire Elements. Although these three horoscopes are different, their dates and numbers collide, and thus it makes sense to discuss them in the same section. The numerology love reading for all three of these horoscopes declares their life path number to move back and forth between one and two positive and around challenge one.
This means that their numerology reading states them to be personalities that are both uncomfortable in the presence of someone intimidating and yet have the urge to lead. That naturally leads to a very stable trait of confidence and humbleness. Their numerology compatibility lies with horoscopes such as cancer or Virgo who have somewhat the same traits. Besides, they are also very compatible with one another, but that is only numerology compatibility their horoscopes may astrologically state them completely incompatible.
Earth Signs and Love in Numerology
The Earth Signs that you might know, Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn, are known to be contradictory of one another astrologically. However, numerology card reading shows them to face the same kinds of challenges and to sport the same kind of positive life path number. They face the challenge 4. Challenge 4 has not been mentioned above. However, it is somewhat like challenge zero. You could say they experience the same kind of challenge in a different capacity.
Their numerology reading shows them to be people that can overcome the challenges they face but whether or not they use their potential to their full capacity is up to them. Their positive number is two. They make great partners. Their numerology compatibility states them to be the kind that can easily adapt to any partner and they are bound to keep them very happy. Their love lives are said to be hay satisfied and free of extraordinary hurdles.
Air Signs and Love in Numerology
Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius, thus the Air element signs, are beautiful and soft natured humans who face the challenges that are a mix variation of zeros and ones. Their positive numbers are mostly one and numerology compatibility lies with one another and their numerology reading states they can adapt to any other zodiac. Their love lives are satisfactory, happy and they are always willing to try new techniques and ways to keep the spark to live in their relationships. They make ideal partners, lovers, and friends.
Water signs and Love in Numerology
Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces, linked to the Water Element, are very hardcore and well defined. They face challenges 9, and their positive number is 4. Neither of them has been stated above. However, a combination of 9 and 4 means their numerology reading declares them to have a very exciting, difficult and happening life Their personalities are very demanding in romantic relationships and their numerology compatibility lies with signs that are gentle and understanding such as Virgo, cancer or Libra. Their numerology compatibility does not lie with one another as they are all very high maintenance.
Daily Numerology Reading
Every day brings us a variation of luck, happiness, disappointment, tragedy, and excitement. In this section, we will be discussing the daily numerology reading. Considering the fact that to be stating each zodiac's daily numerology reading would be too complex a matter, and we want to be keeping it simple. We are going to discuss some of the prominent days in each zodiac's life and will be backing that with reason as to how numerology supports it.
Aquarius, Pisces, and Aries
Their numerology reading declared the 15th of each month to be one to look forward to. Their day will be dominated by the role of their positive number, and they will constantly feel faith and confidence in themselves. The 1st and the 30th should be days that they will be experiencing the most challenges from their respective challenge number.
The numerology compatibility is also the luckiest and successful around the 15th. Besides that, these zodiacs, daily numerology reading are fairly normal and don't particularly stand out. Every other day is said to be normal that means the number 15 is mostly coming into play and nothing too tragic or lucky is expected unless the challenge number overcomes a specific day.
Taurus, Gemini, and Cancer
To provide their daily numerology reading is slightly harder as their challenge and a positive number is a mixture or certain several digits. Their numerology reading states that they should be expecting the fourth day of each week to be somewhat different and may be new and exciting. This 'different' can also be tragic and sad. Irrespective the 4th day is one to be cautious on. Their numbers are such a mix that every day of the month could turn amazing depending on which digit takes over their day.
However, a normal day of each week of each month is thought to be the first day if it an odd digit. Otherwise, their daily horoscope is slightly more intriguing in comparison to that of Aquarius, Pisces, and Aries.
Leo, Virgo, and Libra
Numerology reading is easy to predict for these zodiacs daily. It's simple, most of the days that have the digit 2 except '22′ should be days that are you are your best at. These days your positive number is expected to be dominating all other numbers in your life. However, every date having the digit 5 in it might be conflicting for you. These days are to be spent trying to overcome your challenges. The daily numerology reading for these zodiacs is quite positive and looking good things in the face.
Scorpio, Sagittarius, and Capricorn
Their numerology reading is as simple as could possibly be. It is however slightly unfortunate. Their days daily aren't expected to be very happy rather boring and normal sometimes unhappy. So, their good days really count. Any day that had the digit 3 n it is expected to be a good day. Their positive number is expected to have jumped into the play and dominate their personality. However, they can expect the challenge number to dominate any other day besides that. Again, their daily horoscope does not look as good or happy as do the rest.
Conclusion: Numerology Reading
Numerology is an art mastered y very few, with the potential to make the most difficult predictions possible. In this article, we have tried our best to give our readers the best and most genuine idea about numerology reading possible. The article talks about the numerology compatibility as well as daily numerology readings and other information deemed necessary has also been provided. We hope this was useful for you.

Use of restroom advertising means that businesses can target specifically men or women by placing different ads in men's and women's bathrooms. For example, an acne medication from Proctor & Gamble was placed in restrooms in the New York Subway system several years ago; the ad lettering was printed backwards so women could read it while looking in the public restroom mirrors. In addition, ads designed for either gender can be placed in unisex or family restrooms.

During Partner Day at Inbound 18, if you were paying attention you might have heard JD Sherman, COO at HubSpot say not everyone is going to want to sell and provide services around HubSpot's full suite of products.
I thought that was astute for HubSpot to realize that and honest for them to admit it to a few hundred of their best partners. But agencies are at an inflection point. What kind of agency do you want to be? What kind of services do you want to provide to clients?
Perhaps more importantly, is not what you want, but what your clients want and what your team is prepared to deliver. So today, here's how to know what direction you might want to consider for your agency.

Estates are not just rich people who are old so they want to pass down their property to their heirs. It's about all of us and most of us own estates like our house, car, land, valuables, investments, etc. Best Financial Adviser Kuber Mindz Moneymindz observes that wealth distribution does not affect estates since even the poorest person has one estate or the other, like house, etc.
Since man is mortal his/her material possessions would be inherited by someone else after death. You should certainly have the power to say who inherits what from your property, and you do! Estate Planning is how it is done.
What is Estate Planning?
Estate Planning means expecting and organizing for the management and distribution of a person's estate during his/her life for the time when the same person gets incapacitated or dies. Estate Planning is distribution to direct a person's asset base in case he/she gets incapacitated or dies. India's Best Free Online Estate Planning Financial Advisory Portal Moneymindz gives you the example of wills and trusts as ways of Estate Planning.
Being vulnerable to injuries and illnesses, man has to have an Estate Plan prepared before any such mishaps happen. It is not that only rich people or old people should do Estate Planning. The past centuries have witnessed clashes in clans due to no estate planning or lack of clarity in estate planning.
Key Features of Estate Planning
- Absolute Inquiry
Wherever there is crucial information, close attention is paid to the details and doubts are cleared. This way you can take corrective actions if any faults are found.
- Meets your expectations
Estate Planning makes you decide everything such as what should happen to your estates after you pass away, who inherits what, how they get divided, etc. The deciding authority is you.
Perks of Estate Planning
- Manages information
Any conflicts that might arise in future can be eliminated and possible misunderstandings can be prevented from happening by assessing the plan properly.
- Peace of mind
There is peace of mind when you know you have kept an estate plan. It ensures everything is divided according to your wish.
- Prevents clash of clans
Not the game, but actual "clash of clans"! In the absence of Estate Planning, everyone is possibly going to fight over your estates.
There is more to know about Estate Planning. For more information visit: www.moneymindz.com or give a missed call to 022-62116588

Bese Saka - Sack of cola nuts - affluence, abundance, unity
100% silk twill scarf (90 x 90 cm)
Designed by Yaw Tony
Ref. : 001-2316-F39120
Bese Saka
Name/Theme: Bese saka (Bunch of cola nuts)
Literal Translation: "Bese" means "Cola nut" "saka" means bunch.
Meaning: it is the food for the weary, the food for greatness, a stimulant for power and achievements (Glover, 1969). This symbol is also used for the production of adinkra cloth with other adinkra symbols.
Background: cola nuts is a one-seeded fruit, are about 2.5 cm (1 in) long, developed from a compound ovary, that has external walls hardened to a woody consistency, and that is indehiscent. They have a mottled brown or reddish-grey colour, the taste of the fresh seeds is bitter, but as the nuts age and they become slightly aromatic. The seeds contain caffeine, tannin, and theo-bromine, and are used extensively in the manufacture of cola drinks. Cola nut is enjoyed by chewing and purposely for its stimulating effect, making you active. It is mostly patronized and used by the farmers mostly from the Northern tribes of Ghana. It is also served to visitors as they welcome them to their homes to refresh their strength and to accept them into their fold. This magical and mysterious seed used by most people could not have evaded the attention of the Asantes.
Moral Value: They have learnt that the road to achievement is sometimes bitter but it turns to strengthen one's life for great success. Little achievements give strength for one to carry on even when tiredness sets in. It is a symbol of power and wealth.
Originator: Opanin Kofi Maanu an indigene of Asante-Ntonso is believed to have originated the symbol (Nana Agya Bedu-2007 a Master Artisan at Ntonso). The year of its origination is unknown but it is believed to be during the reign of Nana Opoku Ware I who ruled Ashanti kingdom from (1719-1750).
Idea development: This motive was developed from the cross-section of a cola nut. It is like twins found in one womb. The conception of power or achievement in life is the element of strength and hard work. Like twins constituting two different people, are conceived by the same parents, almost at the same time.

For more than 50 years, Robert Devitt has helped thousands of cadets soar in the field of aviation, through volunteering for the Australian Air League (AAL) Cadets.
The 62-year-old Riverwood resident is the 2019 recipient of the Canterbury-Bankstown Citizen of the Year award, for his commitment to the Riverwood Squadron, which he joined in 1967.
Mr Devitt has been instrumental in helping many find their wings.
"Even though I didn't become a pilot, I've helped many other people become one. I've had the pleasure of training these young cadets and watch some of them become commercial pilots or continue on to work for the military," he said.
Mr Devitt has helped develop and implement multiple training programs, such as Field and Theory Education; is the Duke of Edinburgh's Award Co-ordinator; has never missed an ANZAC Day or Remembrance Day ceremony, since joining the AAL; and was instrumental in rallying squadron members to secure a hall, after the old was destroyed by fire in 1982.
And, while Mr Devitt has given a tremendous amount of time to the Air League, he's also been an extraordinary example of what it means to be a good Samaritan, regularly fundraising for the Salvation Army's Red Shield Appeal; helping Lugarno Lions sell Christmas cakes; is a Scripture teacher with Riverwood Catholic Church; and is an active member of St Vincent de Paul Society.
On top of his work in Canterbury-Bankstown, he assists the community in the Philippines where his daughter lives, serving meals to the poor, teaching local students and assisting those in need.
"It's a bit hard to put into words being recognised with this award," he said.
"It's amazing that someone thought to nominate me because there are plenty of other people more worthy than me.
"I thought to myself, why would someone want to give me an award for doing something I love? All I can say is there are so many generous people out there today helping the community and that's a good thing."
Mayor Asfour praised Mr Devitt for his contribution to the community.
"Robert and all the other nominees are shining examples of how their work continues to change people's lives for the better," Mayor Asfour said.

Wonderful Venue to be Considered
This week provided an opportunity for me to attend events at two different venues, and I just had to share some of the delightful finds with you! This post will focus on a Private Golf Club that will allow non-members to have their events there.
I was part of a very select group of Planners invited to a Summer Luncheon at the East Lake Golf Club! The club is located 5 miles east of Downtown. This Club is so full of history and tradition and it was an honor to be invited to the event. For those of you that are Golf enthusiasts, this place is Mecca. East Lake Golf Club is where Bobby Jones, the legendary golfer, got his start, and this was also the location of his last tournament. The grounds are breathtaking. The club is the permanent home of The TOUR Championship, the culminating event of the PGA TOUR Playoffs for the FedEx Cup.
From the time you enter the main doors, you are welcomed into a tastefully decorated, large open area. There are several soft seating places in this area along with the Receptionist who provides a kind smile upon your arrival. To the right of the main room there is a Living Room that typically has more soft seating available – however, this room, complete with a fireplace, can be used for special events. It would be a fabulous room for a ceremony. To the back of this room is a smaller room with a wall of windows. We actually had our luncheon in this room. If you exit back to the main entry area and then go to the left, you will pass by a case with a stunning crystal trophy that I couldn't help but stop and look at. The ballroom would then be straight in front of you. The colors used throughout the club are very neutral and to me feel calming and exquisite at the same time. The ballroom also offers views of the course. The chandeliers are beautiful and there are dark wood features within the room. One area that I think would be very appealing to brides is the outside terrace. When you step outside onto the terrace you are surrounded with the beauty of the course. The terrace is rounded – which makes for a perfect wedding ceremony setting. The wedding party would descend down a set of steps as they approach the ceremony area – so guests would be treated to amazing views at all times. If you didn't want to have your ceremony outside, you could use this terrace for the cocktail hour and I can just imagine during Spring and Fall, you would be hard pressed to find a more lovely setting.
East Lake Golf Club is home to one of the best chef's around, Chef Michael Deihl. His creations for our luncheon were superb. He has a true passion for creating tasty dishes which area also visually pleasing. He delights in working with brides to create a custom menu that your guests will be talking about for years to come.
If you happen to be a die-hard golfer, or you are marrying one, then East Lake Golf Club would fulfill some lifelong dreams. If you have your event there, you are allowed to play golf at the course. This is certainly an opportunity that would not be available to those without a membership at the club otherwise.
One of the aspects of East Lake Golf Club goes along with their motto: Golf With a Purpose. To quote from their website:
"East Lake Golf Club is the catalyst for the remarkable transformation of the East Lake community. Our motto, "Golf with a Purpose," was coined early in the process, after it was realized that golf would be the galvanizing element of the new East Lake community."
For those looking for a venue with options for their event, I highly suggest East Lake Golf Club. Contact me for more details.

1.2. Algorithms¶
An algorithm is a step by step list of instructions that if followed exactly will solve the problem under consideration.
Our goal in programming is to take a problem and develop an algorithm that can serve as a general solution. Once we have such a solution, we can express it as a program and use our computer to automate the execution. These programs are written in programming languages.
Check your understanding
- A solution to a problem that can be solved by a computer.
- While it is true that algorithms often do solve problems, this is not the best answer. An algorithm is more than just the solution to the problem for a computer. An algorithm can be used to solve all sorts of problems, including those that have nothing to do with computers.
- A step by step sequence of instructions that if followed exactly will solve the problem under consideration.
- Algorithms are like recipes: they must be followed exactly, they must be clear and unambiguous, and they must end.
- A series of instructions implemented in a programming language.
- Programming languages are used to express algorithms, but an algorithm does not have to be expressed in terms of a programming language.
- A special kind of notation used by programmers.
- Programmers sometimes use a special notation to illustrate or document an algorithm, but this is not the definition of an algorithm.
An algorithm is:

LAFAYETTE, La., Oct. 4, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- IBERIABANK Corporation (NASDAQ: IBKC), holding Company of the 130-year-old IBERIABANK (www.iberiabank.com), provides updates on a number of key topics, including the impact of recent Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, the previously disclosed Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") lawsuit, its energy portfolio, and Sabadell United Bank acquisition costs.
Daryl G. Byrd, President and Chief Executive Officer of IBERIABANK Corporation, commented, "In order to provide greater transparency into a number of key issues impacting this quarter's financial results, we are disclosing preliminary information on the massive weather events that recently impacted our region, an update on the HUD lawsuit, a brief update on the resolution of our energy portfolio, and details regarding our merger and severance-related expenses for the Sabadell acquisition."
Byrd continued, "As always, we want to keep our shareholders abreast of the changing dynamics of the matters that affect our business."
Hurricanes Harvey and Irma
Hurricane Harvey made landfall on August 25, 2017, and stalled over the greater Houston area for several days producing record amounts of rainfall that led to catastrophic flooding. IBERIABANK operates eight branches in the greater Houston area and has $2.6 billion in total loan commitments with $1.7 billion in loans outstanding.
Hurricane Irma made initial landfall in the Florida Keys and a second landfall just south of Naples, Florida, as a Category 4 hurricane on September 10, 2017, and proceeded northward along the western side of the Florida Peninsula. As a result of localized flooding, high wind gusts and the interruption of power services, IBERIABANK operations were impacted for a short period of time. IBERIABANK, including the recent acquisition of Sabadell United Bank, has $9.1 billion in total loan commitments with $7.7 billion in loans outstanding in Florida.
IBERIABANK (including acquired Sabadell United Bank locations) suffered minimal damage and incremental expense related to its physical infrastructure as a result of these storms. All IBERIABANK offices have returned to normal business operations. A decline in business activity is expected in the short term; however, long-term activity could benefit as a result of rebuilding efforts. IBERIABANK's expectation is that deposit volumes and business economic activity may increase beyond historical norms as the recovery process begins based on experience from Hurricanes Katrina and Rita along with the major flooding event in south central Louisiana in August 2016.
Based on initial assessments of the potential credit impact, IBERIABANK expects to accrue $8.5 million of incremental provision for credit losses tied to these two named storms during the third quarter of 2017.
U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development / Department of Justice Legal Matter
In the third quarter of 2016, the Company disclosed that it had been served with a subpoena from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Office of Inspector General pertaining to its origination and quality control practices for loans insured by the Federal Housing Administration. The Company learned earlier this year that it was a defendant in a qui tam lawsuit filed in a United States District Court in Arkansas brought by two former associates of IBERIABANK Mortgage Company. When the Company concluded a probable loss was reasonably estimable, it disclosed in the second quarter of 2017 a potential exposure between $6 million to $17 million. At that time, the Company accrued $6 million. The Company has recently negotiated a settlement amount of $11.7 million that counsel for the United States are recommending for approval by the appropriate government decision makers, which remains subject to final review and approval by the Department of Justice. The Company expects to accrue the remaining $5.7 million for this matter in the third quarter of 2017. The Company hopes to fully resolve this matter by the end of October 2017. As previously disclosed, the Company plans to pursue insurance coverage.
Energy Portfolio Update
Significant progress on the resolution of non-accruals in the energy portfolio occurred during the third quarter of 2017. Several of the remaining energy companies with non-accrual loans outstanding were successful in negotiating pre-packaged bankruptcies. As a result of these pre-packaged bankruptcies, $17.0 million of energy-related loan net charge-offs are expected during the third quarter of 2017. Of the $17.0 million, $7.8 million had been previously provided for in prior quarters with $9.2 million expected to be provided for during the third quarter. The $9.2 million in expected charge-offs is at the lower-end of the previously provided range of $10 million to $15 million potentially required to resolve troubled energy-related credits.
The expected impact is as follows:
- A decline in energy-related non-accrual loans of $32.6 million, or 34%;
- Energy-related non-accrual loan portfolio balance of $62.4 million;
- Remaining allowance for credit losses on energy-related non-accrual loans equal to $13.4 million; and,
- The allowance for credit losses to non-performing asset ratio for energy-related loans equal to 21.5%.
The remaining $62.4 million of the non-accrual energy-related loan portfolio consists of 10 credits, which the Company believes is adequately collateralized and has appropriate reserves. The Company does not expect to have additional provisioning tied to the remaining energy-related loan portfolio. In addition, no material impact is currently expected to the clients within the energy-related loan portfolio from Hurricanes Harvey and Irma.
On an overall basis for the legacy IBERIABANK portfolio, net charge-offs for the third quarter, inclusive of the additional energy-related loan charge-offs mentioned above and a $6 million charge-off for a single non-energy commercial credit, are not expected to exceed $29 million. Consolidated provision for credit losses in the third quarter is expected to be $19 million.
Sabadell United Bank Acquisition Merger-Related Expenses
As previously announced, IBERIABANK Corporation acquired Sabadell United Bank on July 31, 2017. For the three month period ended September 30, 2017, IBERIABANK Corporation expects to report merger and severance-related expenses of $30 million and branch closure expenses of $3 million.
The Company will provide its comprehensive earnings release as previously announced after the market closes on October 19, 2017, with a scheduled conference call to discuss results of the third quarter on October 20, 2017 at 8:30am Central Time.
IBERIABANK Corporation
IBERIABANK Corporation is a financial holding Company with 335 combined offices, including 228 bank branch offices and one loan production office in Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, Alabama, Texas, Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina, 24 title insurance offices in Arkansas and Louisiana, and mortgage representatives in 68 locations in 10 states. The Company has 13 locations with representatives of IBERIA Wealth Advisors in four states, and one IBERIA Capital Partners, L.L.C. office in New Orleans.

Uncommon Genius: Stephen Jay Gould On Why Connections Are The Key to Creativity
by Maria Popova "The trick to creativity, if there is a single useful thing to say about it, is to identify your own peculiar talent and then to settle down to work with it for a good long time." "Originality often consists in linking up ideas whose connection was not previously suspected," wrote W. I. B.
344 Illustrated Flowcharts to Find Life's Big Answers
by Maria Popova Flowcharting your way to happiness, or why you should be looking for people who intimidate you. From ever-inventive designer Stefan G. Bucher of You Deserve a Medal and Daily Monster fame comes 344 Questions: The Creative Person's Do-It-Yourself Guide to Insight, Survival, and Artistic Fulfillment — a delightful pocket-sized compendium of flowcharts and lists illustrated in Bucher's unmistakable style to help you figure out life's big answers, in the vein of today's inadvertent running theme of self-help-books-that-aren't-really-"self-help"-books. Besides Bucher's own questions, the tiny but potent handbook features contributions from 36 beloved cross-disciplinary creators, including Brain Pickings favorites Christoph Niemann, Stefan Sagmeister, Marian Bantjes, Doyald Young, and Jakob Trollbäck. Let's be clear: I want this book to be useful to you.
Future - Technology - Cats, memes and internet schemes
Why is the internet so obsessed with pictures of cats and is there more to them than meets the eye? "Oh hai. Welcom 2 dis weekz colum all bout teh peculiar fenomenon ov memez an teh internetz fascianashun wif kats." That sentence probably puts you in one of two camps: someone who thinks the BBC's standards have reached an all time low, or an aficionado of one of the most virally pervasive of all internet memes, the lolcat. For the uninitiated, lolcats are the near-numberless offspring of a venerable class of object: the "image macro", in which text is superimposed on to a photograph.

How to Be an Explorer of the World
by Maria Popova "Every morning when we wake up, we have twenty-four brand-new hours to live. What a precious gift!" As a longtime fan of guerrilla artist and illustrator Keri Smith's Wreck This Box set of interactive journals, part of these 7 favorite activity books for grown-ups, I was delighted to discover her How to Be an Explorer of the World: Portable Life Museum (public library) — a wonderful compendium of 59 ideas for how to get creatively unstuck by engaging with everyday objects and your surroundings in novel ways. From mapping found sounds to learning the language of trees to turning time observation into art, these playful and poetic micro-projects aren't just a simple creativity booster — they're potent training for what Buddhism would call "living from presence" and inhabiting your life more fully. It all began with this simple list, which Smith scribbled on a piece of paper in the middle a sleepless night in 2007:
Milton Glaser on Art, Technology, and the Secret of Life

Publications Publisher Debate: How Private Exchanges Increase Inventory Control And Solve Channel Conflict 11/22
The debate among premium publishers and DSPs begs one simple question: "Will putting my inventory on an exchange cannibalize my direct sales efforts?" Those who "own" inventory are concerned that through exchanges, advertisers and trading desks have access to the same premium placements at lower CPMs, thereby diluting direct sales opportunities. As a premium publisher, you probably invest in a sales team to monetize your inventory.
25 Handy Words That Simply Don't Exist In English
Approximately 375 million people speak English as their first language, in fact it's the 3rd most commonly spoken language in the world (after Mandarin Chinese and Spanish). Interestingly enough it's the number 1 second language used worldwide - which is why the total number of people who speak English, outnumber those of any other. But whilst it's the most widely spoken language, there's still a few areas it falls down on (strange and bizarre punctuation rules aside).
Mashup: A Fair Use Defense
Mashup, a style of music that combines samples from various songs, would appear to many to be the epitome of copyright infringement. In fact, a 2005 court case, Bridgeport v. Dimension, deemed the unauthorized use of even one second of a sample to be copyright infringement. Since mashup blends several samples over the course of any one song, it must certainly be copyright infringement. Right? Not so fast.
