The Jesse Heikkila Foundation was created by the parents of seven-year-old Jesse Heikkila, in honor of their son's five-year battle with cancer. Jesse was diagnosed with Stage IV Neuroblastoma at age three and continued to fight a brave battle against the disease until the age of seven.
In July of 2014, a nonprofit organization was created honor Jesse's fight, raise awareness about childhood cancer and to create a community of support for those struggling with Neuroblastoma.
The Jesse Heikkila event at Silks Poker Room raises funds in support of The Neuroblastoma and Medulloblastoma Translational Research Consortium (NMTRC).
The NMTRC is a group of eighteen collaborating universities and hospitals providing clinical trials as they seek new therapies for children and ways to improve the quality of life for survivors.
A primarily pediatric cancer, approximately seven hundred new diagnoses are made each year with few treatment options. Funding for the disease is minimal, resulting in the need for families to create local charity organizations, like The Jesse Heikkila Foundation.

Silks Poker Room at Tampa Bay Downs is open seven days a week. Register with 813area to stay up to date on local charity events and find more great things to do in Tampa.

2. Last week, Haygarth handled PR for the high-profile Foundation Polo Challenge in California. The Duke of Cambridge led his team to victory against Team American Express Centurion. High profile guests included Rob Lowe, Billy Zane, Jennifer Love-Hewitt and Nicolette Sheridan. This is definitely not a shameless way to get a picture of the royal newlyweds into PRWeek.

On the evening of January 27, 2017, President Trump signed an executive order instructing U.S. embassies and consular posts to suspend the issuance of nonimmigrant and immigrant visas for the nationals of seven Muslim countries. We discussed the first executive order in an article entitled (The-implications-of-president-trumps-executive-order-banning-muslim-refuges/). This order was widely criticized and a temporary restraining order was issued which instructed the Department of State and Homeland Security to immediately stop enforcing the travel-ban order. However, on March 6, 2017, Mr. Trump signed a second executive order blocking citizen from predominately-Muslim countries but with several changes.
Changes from the First Executive Order
In an effort to allow it to be upheld by the courts, the most recent order has several differences.
- Iraq has been removed from the banned countries. The new order bans entry from six Muslim countries, Sudan, Syria, Iran, Libya, Somalia, and Yemen for 90 days. It excludes Iraq from the list because the country has agreed to increase cooperation with the U.S. government on the vetting of its citizens applying for a visa to travel to the United States.
- Instead of an indefinite ban, Syrian refugees will now be prohibited from entering the U.S. for 120 days.
- Existing visas and green cards will remain valid. While the original order prevented some with valid visas from entering the U.S., the latest order takes no such action.
- This is not an absolute ban. The State and Homeland Security departments will be able to grant waivers on a case-by-case basis if a foreign national demonstrates that his or her entry into the United States is in the national interest, will not pose a threat to national security, and that denying entry during the suspension period will cause undue hardship.
Because of the new executive order, the first order is now defunct.
What Happens Next?
While the second executive order is much narrower, the executive order will still face many legal challenges. For example, a day after the new travel ban was signed; a challenge in a Hawaii court seeks a temporary restraining order to prevent it from being enforced. In addition, New York's Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said he is scrutinizing the new ban and is expected to challenge it.
If you believe this latest travel ban affects you or your family, please call our office. As with the first travel ban, this one will be subject to legal challenges and the situation may change rapidly. However, we are closely tracking changes as they unfold and are here to help you navigate this situation.

CHICAGO (CBS) — A Springfield researcher is looking into ways to fight the opioid crisis with help from a $1 million federal grant.
It's not just a powerful addition, it can also lead to HIV because some opioid addicts use dirty needles.
"To really overcome this as a country, and even in communities, will take much more than just providing clean syringes and referrals to treatment," said the lead researcher Wiley Jenkins, who's from Southern Illinois University's school of medicine, is the lead researcher.
"We're really talking about communities — especially in rural areas — understanding the nature of their problem and providing and environment where people feel that they can be accepted for their addiction."
RELATED: Statement Poll Reveals New Statistics on Illinois' Opioid Epidemic | Kankakee County Sues Drug Companies Amid Opioid Crisis
Jenkins says the research could make a difference, although it will take longer to beat back the addiction culture.
"Investigating how people who inject drugs operate — they're culture, how they assess care. We know a lot of these things — we know how they work and there's a base of evidence to show that they do work."
Therefore, Jenkins says, they seek to take a lot of these evidence-based practices and apply them into very specific areas.
Research will be a multi-year project from the state's 16 southern-most counties, with help from the University of Chicago, University of Illinois at Chicago and the State Department of Public Health.

NOLLYWOOD: Reality TV Shows, springboard to stardom
Category: Nollywood News

Hits: 202
Imagine Femi Kuti judging a singing competition, or Omotola Jalade-Ekehinde living her everyday life for the entire continent to see? These are just a few instances which may have seemed next to impossible a few years back. Welcome to the era of reality television, a place where fiction meets reality.
Reality TV is a television programming genre that presents unscripted situations, documents actual events and usually features unknowns. The genre has recently exploded as a phenomenon with the success of such television series as Big Brother Africa, Project Fame, and Nigerian Idol.
There are two types of reality TV, competitive shows and shows following people's lives. In competitive shows people get eliminated until there are a few people left and one is declared winner. For example Nigerian Idol, Why do we watch it? I think what draws most people is the hope that aspiring talents can achieve something extraordinary which is so inspiring. And of course, talented people and not so talented people auditioning for Femi Kuti, Yinka Davies, and Jeffrey Daniel also draw a huge audience.
Although the biggest shows in the country are adaptations of pre-existing western versions, some of the biggest names that we have grown to love in the entertainment industry are a product of reality TV.
Darey Art Alade: Son of the renowned entertainer Art Alade. Darey is arguably the most talented RB singer in the country. Darey finally stepped out of his fathers shadow in 2004, and became a star in his own right on Project Fame. He emerged second runner up on the South African version of the show. Darey most notably headlined the country's 50th independence anniversary with his "soul band" to a room filled with several African Presidents and past world leaders. Darey's recent critically acclaimed concert was hosted by reality star Kim Kardashian.
Tiwa Savage: YES! Before stepping onto the scene in Nigeria, Tiwa got her first taste of the limelight on the XFACTOR; A British singing competition where she made it to the top 24. She won the hearts of Nigerians with her debut single "Love Me (x3)" in 2011 going on to achieve a huge success with her album. Tiwa has won many awards and accolades in recognition of her success, and she is the current Pepsi ambassador alongside Wizkid.
Iyanya: Years before spawning hits like 'Kukere' and 'Your Waist', or his infectious 'etighi' dance craze. Iyanya was fighting to be the last man standing on Project Fame West Africa which he won on the shows premiere season. He recently released his sophomore album 'Iyanya VS Desire' to rave reviews.
Tonto Dikeh: The controversial actress was first runner up on 'The Next Movie Star' in 2005. She is one of the most recognizable faces in Nollywood with a filmography of over 30 movies.
Singer Omawunmi, Chidinma Ekile, Uti Nwachukwu, Karen Igho, and the late singer Goldie Harvey are some stars that also gained tremendous popularity through reality TV.
Reality stars are picked from obscurity, and may end back there but they get a shot at fame through prolonged exposure on television even if they don't win. The Idol grand prize is worth $100,000, and the lucky winner will get N7.5 million in cash, a recording contract also worth N7.5 million, and a brand new SUV. Runner-ups will receive prizes worth a combined total of N10 million.
The big success of reality TV is also seeing even the A-list celebrities ready to reveal it all to the cameras. Nowadays we have more access than ever to our favorite celebrities, thanks to social media. But no medium gives us a more in-depth look at their lives than reality television.
Omotola Jalade-Ekehinde 's reality series: "The Real Me" broke records with its debut episode receiving the highest viewership on M-NET's Africa Magic last year. Following in her footsteps is Yoruba actress Laide Bakare who is set to star in her own reality show 'My Xperience.
As more stars are discovered, and dreams being fulfilled the emergence of reality television is proving to be great for the development of the entertainment industry as a whole.

All Christenings have been suspended until further notice because of Covid-19 - we are not taking any further bookings at this time.
A Infant Baptism also known as a Christening is when you will make the promises for your child as you commitment them to be a Christian and follow the teachings of Jesus.
Your child is precious to you and precious to God. You want the very best for them, and so does God. You want them to make right choices in life, for themselves and for others.
Over the years to come, it's a journey you'll share together with your child by:
So it's a commitment to start as you mean to go on. A christening is a celebration and a gift from God. Like most gifts you also receive a set of instructions on how to get the best from your gift. With this in mind we have created a Christening Preparation Booklet (click here) which, hopefully will answer any questions you may have. There is also a Christening Request Form (click here) for you to download and complete. Once you have completed the Christening Request Form you will need to bring this to one of our planned Services, either on Sunday at 11.00am or Wednesday at 7.00pm. Please hand the completed form to The Reverend Kevin Greaves (Vicar) or The Reverend Kathryn Goldsmith (Curate). On receipt of the form a date will be agreed for you to attend one of our Christening Preparation Groups, which are held on the third Wednesday of most months. Through attending the group you will have an understanding of the commitment you are making as well as been shown the practical parts of the service. After attending the Christening Preparation a date will then be agreed for the Christening of your child.
Christenings in the parish are on the first Sunday of every month at 11am in the Eucharist (Mass) and at 1pm as a separate service. It is advisable that you do not book a venue for your reception until after been given a date for the christening as this date may have already been taken by another family. On some occasions you may find that there is also another christening family in the service with you.
We respectfully ask that photographs are not taken at any point in the service, as there maybe an instance when a child cannot have their photograph taken and/or there maybe a vulnerable adult in the congregation who again cannot have their photograph taken. We do however, encourage family and friends at the end of the service to gather round the font and take more formal photographs of this happy life changing event.
We are really pleased that you are wanting to have your child christened at our church and we look forward to meeting you, your family and your guests.

A key message from Back From Vivatech: today's technological innovations will determine the consumer habits of tomorrow
During the Back from Vivatech conference, held by the Institut du Commerce Connecté on June 4th, Antoine Durieux, CEO and founder of Alkemics, took participating retailers on a whirlwind tour of key innovations throughout history.
Did the inventors of the steam engine, at the beginning of the 19th century, know that their invention would contribute to the rise of department stores?
How about the European manufacturers that hastened the trend towards widespread car ownership in the 50s? Did they envision supermarkets and their huge parking lots?
In the 70s, military researchers in the United States created the Arpanet network, predecessor to the internet. Did they have e-commerce in mind?
Probably not! Nonetheless, these days, the link between these significant technological innovations and changes to consumption habits seems clear.
Let's look ahead to the near future: what new developments will today's changes and innovations result in?
Automation of production chains
In the mass-market retail industry, in China, the United States and Europe, innovators are undertaking ambitious projects and offering us insight into future trends. Ocado's Smart Platform shows us some of the ways that automation can transform the production chain. Less time is needed to prepare orders, and consumers will soon consider delivery in less than 24 hours to be the standard.
The internet and disintermediation
Another key transformation driving this trend is disintermediation and the development of the sharing economy. Thanks to their thousands of independent "shoppers" and a high-performing application, the American company Instacart is able to offer grocery delivery in less than an hour.
Availability of artificial intelligence resources
Large companies such as Amazon and Google are basing new innovations on the increased availability of artificial intelligence resources. With their voice assistants, they are aiming to change the way we make purchases online. AI will also transform bricks-and-mortar stores. Checkout counters – and especially long queues – will likely become a thing of the past. We've all been dreaming of this since the first Amazon Go opened in Seattle at the end of 2016. It's already a reality in China for customers of Hema Fresh, whose 60 points of sale are equipped with SES Imagotag's technologies. In addition, salespeople will have access to simulators with augmented reality, enabling them to refine and customize their advice.
Lower manufacturing costs
Finally, you've almost certainly started to see the effects of decreased manufacturing and transport costs. Thousands of small businesses have taken advantage of this opportunity to add local products to their offering. They're also using new communication channels as much as possible to promote their brands, and it works! Consumers are showing support and interest in the trend towards buying local. They consider certain purchases to be an expression of civic engagement. Observing this, American Apparel has brought part of its manufacturing operations back to the United States. On its website, the brand offers two versions of its classic hooded sweatshirt, "Made in USA" and "Globally made", giving customers the opportunity to choose.
Though it is impossible to anticipate all of the changes that these new innovations will result in, we can be sure that:
– they will simplify the consumer decision journey, erasing the lines between online and offline commerce
– their launch will require extremely effective data management, especially when it comes to product data
Numerous actors in mass-market retail are developing and strengthening various strategic partnerships. For example, in the past eight months, we have seen Auchan form an alliance with Alibaba, the Casino group partner with Ocado, collaborations between Monoprix and Amazon, as well as Carrefour's partnerships with Tencent and then Google.
At the same time, consumer demands are changing very quickly. It's important to keep up with these, rather than waiting for all of these changes to reveal their full potential.
To do this, it is absolutely essential to have access to digitized, structured, centralized data that can be accessed by all departments. This requires access to tools that facilitate the management of this data, and are also omnidepartment, omnichannel and omnipurpose. At the same time, it is also important to offer training to your teams, in order to help them gain new skills and get the most out of these new technologies and innovations.

"The Collection" may have been inspired by the 1967 thriller "Wait Until Dark," as the publicity materials claim, but it hardly strays from the torture subgenre of the "Saw" franchise. This film's director, Marcus Dunstan, and the writer with whom he wrote the script, Patrick Melton, were in fact contributors to the last four "Saw" movies. And the prequel to this one, "The Collector," by the same filmmakers, mined similar ground.
The main target in that film, Arkin (Josh Stewart), returns, bloodied and broken but willing to aid in the rescue of another victim. And there's also the serial killer, a masked menace who is equally interested in beetles, severed body parts and pools of blood. After mowing down a dance floor of revelers — he's also efficient — with an improvised wheat harvester, he kidnaps the lone survivor, Elena (Emma Fitzpatrick), taking her to his pimped-out chamber of horrors. Here body parts are preserved, tarantulas are on display (and released, of course), and assorted contraptions are ready to ensnare.
He's a psychopath, eager to kill on a large scale. But he also tends to a menagerie of zombiefied minions who try to kill anyone who enters his lair, as a group of mercenaries learn when seeking to rescue Elena. Maybe it's a game, maybe it's not. The movie is as confounding as it is grisly.
In "Wait Until Dark," Audrey Hepburn's character is a blind woman fending off drug smugglers who invade her home. The climactic scene has viewers on the edge of their seats. "The Collection," however, is just a pointless exercise in sadism.
"The Collection" is rated R (Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian). Crushed bodies, fractured (and reset) limbs and impaled cheeks.

At Heirloom Wooden Toys, they believe that children thrive when they play with simple, earth-friendly toys that inspire the imagination and spark long sessions of creative play. Natural toys are great for kids and for the environment. Providing natural toys to your kids is just one way you can help limit their exposure to toxic chemicals and let them develop their own sense of play at the same time. I chose to review their Cotton Loops Potholder Loom Kit.
"We are a family-owned business and we love what we do! We always felt good about giving our kids natural, simple toys that were designed to withstand years of active play. We've been able to hand many of them down to nieces and nephews, and if we're lucky we'll get to hand them down to grandchildren someday because they're still going strong!"
Heirloom Toys has a huge selection of natural toys to choose from:
Art & Craft Kits
Handmade Toys & Furniture
The Learning Tower
Baby & Toddler Toys
Educational Toys
Play Kitchens
Block Play
Doll Play
Games & Puzzles
Dress Up Costumes
Playhouses & Lofts
Swings & Sandboxes
Creative Play
Music & Instruments
Imaginative Play
Theaters & Puppets
Rocking & Riding
Walkers & Wagons
Waiting Room Toys
Toy Boxes
School Supply
Pretty amazing selection, right?! Of course, that made choosing an item to review quite difficult with so many great natural toy choices but I did end up choosing the Cotton Loops Potholder Loom Kit, which they call Potholder Loom Deluxe.
Cotton Loops Potholder Loom Kit
When I saw the Potholder Loom Deluxe, it brought me straight back to my own childhood and I remember how much I loved making the potholders and how proud I felt of my creations. I chose to get one for my daughter and I am very pleased to say that she loves it just as much as I did.
Creating something useful is such a marvelous feeling especially for a child who doesn't get to do that as often as adults can. My daughter is 6 and she absolutely loves it. I showed her how to do the first one and then I did the edges for her while she watched. She did the second one 100% by herself and I couldn't be more proud!
My 4 year old son can start the process but the weaving part is a little too tedious to hold his interest but he loves to watch my daughter do it. I honestly believe every child should get one of these looms because they are so fun, great for increasing hand eye coordination, planning skills, and they give such a sense of accomplishment. My kids and I love the Potholder Loom Deluxe!
My daughter just finished her 5th potholder and she uses some of them as doll (or kitten) blankets and we plan to have her give a few of her creations away for as DIY Christmas gifts to relatives. It really is lots of fun and keeps her entertained for long periods of time.
Cotton Potholder Loops
One thing I would like to mention about this potholder loom kit is that is really is deluxe in the sense that it has a nice sturdy metal frame and hook (as opposed to cheap plastic) and it has real cotton potholder loops. So many potholder loom kits have synthetic material loops these days and it is nice to see the cotton potholder loops both because they are a nice texture but also because then the creations can safely function as real potholders instead of melting with heat contact! I love real cotton potholder loops, don't you?
Visit heirloomwoodentoys.com and leave me a comment with a favorite toy!
I was provided with the loom in the hopes that I would share my honest opinions. I received no monetary compensation and the opinions expressed are my own.

E.P.A. Admits New Coal Pollution Rules May Kill 1400 People Early
Today, President Trump's E.P.A. released new coal pollution rules. The proposals roll back stricter Obama-era regulations on carbon dioxide emissions from power plants. The E.P.A.'s report also admits the new standards could cause the early deaths of an additional 1400 people. President Trump will lead a political rally today in "coal country". The President will be in Charleston, West Virginia to celebrate the news with his supporters. To discuss the consequences, we're joined by Janet McCabe, former E.P.A. acting assistant administrator for the Office of Air and Radiation. She played a lead role in framing, shaping and implementing Obama's Clean Air Act standards. McCabe is now senior law fellow at the Environmental Law and Policy Center.

Some say the Devil is in them, some say that God is in them, details, that is. Whichever it may be, the truth is that what we clap on our backs would be substantively different, far less evocative and expressive without the addition of special details to make that Attire word unique and beautiful to see.
Though I could fill post after post about various special sleeves, buttons and clasps, collars, cuffs and hems, this post is going to glory in the abundance that is surface decoration.
Cloth can only do so much, though with the onrushing technology of robotics that is changing fast. But in the absence, as yet, of robots that can create complex surface embroideries employing multiple materials requiring multiple techniques to affix them we will still need the patient, endlessly skilled hands of those who embroider onto cloth with cord, ribbon, sequins, feathers, beads and stones.
Here is just a shallow sample of some of the astounding craft out there in the world. Some is subtly done, some is a blaring trumpet. However it expresses, the one thing all these detail images have in common is beauty. They make the eye and the mind and the heart happy to see them. And that, by extension is what we want for ourselves when we wear them.
I can and will explore the work of other cultures and times for the amazing things their artists create, but this should sate your appetites for the moment.

The Spectacles was the name given to these two low circles of stones on the bank to the east of Lough Gur from their appearance on the OS map. When they were excavated only one of the rings proved to be manmade with the other being a natural feature.
The one artificial structure is the base of a round house and several other structures were uncovered nearby as well as ancient field systems.
Sadly there is little to see here from ground level as the overall plan is quite extensive.

From Limerick take the R512 and then the R514 following the signs for The Lough Gur Centre. Drive as far up the car park as you can. Walk to the two huts of the visitors centre and go up the path. At the entrance to the compound turn left and this site is just 50m along.
This is an explanation of (and a bit of a disclaimer for) the coordinates I provide.
Where a GPS figure is given this is the master for all other coordinates. According to my Garmin these are quite accurate.
Where there is no GPS figure the 6 figure grid reference is master for the others. This may not be very accurate as it could have come from the OS maps and could have been read by eye. Consequently, all other cordinates are going to have inaccuracies.
The calculation of Longitude and Latitude uses an algorithm that is not 100% accurate. The long/lat figures are used as a basis for calculating the UTM & ITM coordinates. Consequently, UTM & ITM coordinates are slightly out.
UTM is a global coordinate system - Universal Transverse Mercator - that is at the core of the GPS system.
ITM is the new coordinate system - Irish Transverse Mercator - that is more accurate and more GPS friendly than the Irish Grid Reference system. This will be used on the next generation of Irish OS maps.

Best Thanksgiving Movies & TV Episodes to Feast On
Thanksgiving is a pretty ugly time of year. Lots of turkey carnage. And the whole guilt over what was done to the Indians. It's a slaughtering holiday. The weather is hideous–all brown and cold, with no excuses to get some fresh air and go for a walk. There's some kind of ludicrous law that most people have to watch football or they'll die.

Friday the 13th Bullet Journal Ideas
Hi, Y'all. Welcome back to #BuJoFridays!
Today is an extra special Friday though because guess what?
It's Friday the 13th…
Some people just shrug their shoulders and treat it like any other day. Those people are as boring as watching Scream 2 in 2018…
I don't think you have to be really superstitious to enjoy this day. Actually, it probably helps not being superstitious, because if you are, then you probably wouldn't even leave the house.
But with horror movies, including, of course, Friday the 13th, the day has come to be known really just as a dark or creepy day. And if you're like me, and love the darkness and all that goes bump in the night, then embracing this day can be a really fun way to show off that dark side of yours.
So today I'm sharing with you three different ways you can embrace today in your own bullet journal.
Example 1: Creepy Memories
On this first page, I wanted to do a creepy memories page. So the idea is that you can write in a strange occurrence or creepy memory that you've experienced in your past so you can always look back on it and remember.
Friday the 13th tattoos are huge in the tattoo community. So you could instead use this page to write about your experience getting one and why you chose the certain one you got.
I made this page with a spider web theme and drawing in spider web around the top border of the page.
After drawing the web, I drew a string coming down from it with a spider hanging off of it, and then just wrote "Creepy Memories" at the top.
My Creep Memories Story:
I worked with a child ghost…
In high school, I started a job at Sears when I was only about seventeen, and somehow dealing with a ghost became the norm.
Everyone in the store knew of the hauntings, but as the new cashier, they wanted me to experience it like they did, so they never told me.
It all started for me when the elevator in the Kid's Department began going up and down without anyone pushing the buttons. Technicians were brought out, but everything was technically sound.
That night, it started again and it continued like it was.
A few weeks later, as I was standing in the cashier area, I heard a crashing noise from the Kid's Department fitting room. After checking it out, the hangers on the rack had been thrown off, and there was no one there.
A few days later, the child ghost struck again. The store was closed and I was the only one in the Kid's Department. I straightened up and folded some clothes on the shelf. When I finished, I turned around to the next one and took a few steps. I heard a shuffling sound behind me. When I turned, the clothes were scattered on the floor. I look around, but I'm still the only one.
Example 2: Horror Writing Prompt
This next page is to have a horror writing prompt.
I started out by creating a dripping blood effect at the top of the page, coloring it in with a red marker.
I then wrote in my horror writing prompt.
"It's midnight and the lights go out. Bella steps into the pitch black garage to check on her home's circuit breaker. Suddenly, a bony hand reaches out from behind her and wraps around her neck and mouth, gagging her…"
My story:
It's midnight and the lights go out. Bella steps into the pitch black garage to check on her home's circuit breaker. Suddenly, a bony hand reaches out from behind her and wraps around her neck and mouth, gagging her… pulling her back into the deep recesses of the darkness.
Bella tries to scream but is muffled by the emaciated hand holding her mouth tightly shut. Tears begin to stream down her face as she struggles to get free. Her eyes widen when she hears the creature whisper in her ear, unable to make out what it says as it sounds like a cross between a hissing snake and chirping insect.
In the continuous struggle, the creature makes a grave mistake on its part as it lets go of her body with one hand in an attempt to cover her face fully. Before Bella can suffocate from the creature's hands smothering her face, she takes full advantage of the opportunity. She throws her hips back and feels the impact against the body of the creature. It loosens its grip on her and she sprints forward.
Unable to see, however, and disoriented from the attack, Bella runs into a wall, hitting her head and falling to the ground.
Panting heavily, she tries to get up as her eyes finally begin to adjust to the pitch black darkness. It's not much, but she can see the outlines of most of the objects in the garage, freezing upon seeing a pair of glowing yellow eyes across from her.
Time seems to slow down as her adrenaline pumps hard in her body, coursing through her veins as she feels the cool sensation of blood dripping down from her head, a droplet landing on her hand.
Looking around, she senses where she's located in her garage and knows that the door is just a few feet away from her, but it's in between her and the creature.
Bella hears the terrifying sound of the creature once again with an added sound of smacking as if the creature is licking its lips. She knows she'll only have one chance to make a move for the door.
Gathering her remaining courage and keeping her eyes on the creature's yellow eyes in front of her, Bella stands up and sprints towards the door.
The sprint lasts only a couple of seconds, but in those brief moments, out of the corner of her eye, she sees the creature move towards the door to intercept her.
Her night vision adjusted eyes are just enough to make out the faint shape of the doorknob and she storms back into the house. The creature grabs her arm with its bony hand once again, but this time, Bella's defensive instincts are on full alert and she throws a blind punch in the creature's direction, stunning it.
She hears the horrifying sound of the creature one more time as she slams the door shut behind her, immediately locking it behind her before she slides down, her back toward the door. Her adrenaline allows her to release tears of anguish as she curls into a ball, still feeling the blood oozing from her head as she clutches her wound in despair.
Example 3: Dark Thoughts
This third Friday the 13th page idea is to take homage to the dark day.
At the top, using my flat tipped calligraphy pen, I just wrote, "Friday the 13th" in a sort of gothic type of font.
Then going down the page, wrote the numbers one through thirteen.
The idea here is that you can have a space to list 13 of your deepest, darkest thoughts, embracing that dark side of you just for today.
Hope you got some ideas for your bullet journal. Have an awesome Friday the 13th and remember, don't be afraid to embrace the darkness a little…
If you're not following me on Instagram or subscribed to my YouTube Channel… Why aren't you? You'll see both my light and dark sides showcased and get behind the pages insight into my life and work, so go follow me!

Julian Onderdonk (1882 - 1922) Artworks >>
Julian Onderdonk was born in San Antonio, Texas and is known for his Texas landscape paintings. He was the son of the important Texas landscapist, Robert Jenkins Onderdonk. He was his father's pupil at age sixteen, and then, sponsored by a Texas patron, attended the Art Student's League in New York City at age nineteen. There, Onderdonk became the pupil of Cox, DuMond and Henri. Onderdonk also studied with Chase on Long Island.
In 1902, having lost his Texas patron because he married, Onderdonk sold twelve paintings to a Fifth Avenue dealer in New York City for $14. Seven years later, he returned to the family studio in San Antonio. There, he painted "the bigness of Texas, dusty roads, the blooming cactus or hillsides of blue lupine, rolling gulf clouds, aged live oaks and the gray brush in winter."
A heavy-set man with dark eyes and hair, Onderdonk was quiet and serious with "a strong personality." When he died at age forty, "five of his pictures were on the way to New York. He also had orders ahead for $20,000 worth of work."

I don't cycle enough these days. I realised this as, two days ago, I was cycling north out of Witney on one of the back roads and chanced upon two or three dozen wild deer, all clustering around a disused feeding trough in the distant middle of a field. Two or three of them stared fixedly at me; the others kept on feeding, or probably drinking. It's very many brief moments like that, strung together like little charms on a chain, that make cycling so attractive to me.
In fact, I'm beginning to think cycling is my easiest route into what everyone's talking about these days: mindfulness; that relaxed, loosened-up living in the moment that's meant to disentangle your thoughts. I'm no MTB fan, but even if you don't like the journey, you can sense the joy-in-the-present that permeates this rider's voice as he bounds down the track:
I'm no MTB fan, and my cycling is no MTB cycling. Yet when I'm involved in it, and putting some effort in, and coping with Oxfordshire's many potholes, then I find myself drawn to the present on a frequent if irregular basis. And as the bumps and bends loosen me up, physically and mentally, I find I'm able to drift back and forth through that present: thinking about what I've been up to; plotting a line around that corner; planning what I need to do when I get back home; looking out for deer (or buzzards, or kites).
I wrote a fraction of a chapter, of my thesis, while riding the bicycle I had at the time. I wouldn't say it was an amazing chapter, or an amazing thesis, but there it is: embedded into an entire thesis dedicated to control and stabilization, that one nugget, shaken out of me by my cycling.

So when Vassilis asked me (that is, Nikos Manouselis – even though I am now editing his own special reserved blog post) to write something about the Agro-Know history for the glorious 100th post in our blog, I first got very-very happy. I liked this idea of being able to be the special one invited to write something very special and that will have some special place in our blog. Vassilis was kind enough to reserve the 100th post for this particular occasion, sent me a very nice set of ideas about what I could write, and ready we were.
Then, some days passed. And I was busy. And I didn't find the time to write about all the nice things Vassilis asked me to. And the specially reserved blog post was overridden by a new one. And then a new one. Until it completely disappeared from the first page of our blog, even before I found the time to write it. And it became past history. Without anyone really noticing – except from Vassilis, who was kind enough to improvise suggesting me to write the 111th post instead (who knows what would come next, if I delayed this even more – the 1000th or more?).
Then I noticed it: this reserved blog post was posted by Vassilis right on the date when my birthday was. And I immediately understood the scheme. He was trying to nicely tell me that, by growing old, I should accept that my space in the company is right there in the shelf with the historical memorabilia and the relics. That the best that I could get is being invited from time to time to write something of historic value like "The 100th anniversary blog post" or "The top-10 moments in the life of Agro-Know", and then disappear again behind a pile of papers, dust and outdated machinery.
Which, at the end of the day, does not sound that bad. I decided to take the challenge and take care of documenting a bit of the History of Agro-Know moments. That is, find a way to share and tell the various stories and moments from the life in Agro-Know, as we grow and evolve and create more history.
Starting this month, I will try to blog about some of these moments, in a fresh new (or old, depending on the perspective) category called something like "Agro-Know Stories". And from time to time, I will invite all the children (we are a family, after all) and tell them a bit more about the moments that we have experienced as a team, sharing a bit of the fun part and a bit of the ugly part, so that we all grow wiser and better informed. And we will hopefully continue to live happily ever after…

Gary believes this photo was taken in 1974 at Lexington (Mid-Ohio) of him racing his open class, factory Husqvarna. The photo was taken by Gary's mom, on his hometown track where he grew up racing as an amateur and later raced as a pro. Gary finished the 1974 season in fourth place in the 500cc championship.
THE EVENT: "It was one of the tracks on the tour both for the National and the Trans Am races. It was a pretty good track. It was kind of hardpacked dirt, it wasn't very soft or sandy, it was mostly clay. The layout for those times was pretty good. The start was wide, long, and fast and was all by itself. The whole start and first corner were separate and then finally went onto the track, so it had a nice infield area for the start. As I remember it was one of the first tracks that had a double jump in it. The way it was built, it was pretty fast and it was a small take off and a small landing that you had to clear, but there weren't too many people doing it. It was pretty fast and in those times on those old bikes, to hit something that hard and jump that far, to where you had to clear the landing or you were going to endo... If you would have come up short, it was probably a 99% chance of you doing a big yard sale on it. Because the suspension wasn't forgiving at all and to make a mistake like that you'd get kicked off pretty hard... I definitely considered this a home track. It was only about a two hour drive from my house and I started out racing a lot of local races at that track... I didn't really feel that I had an advantage, it just felt good to be so close to home and have a lot of friends there that I knew would be rooting for me. But I felt that anywhere on the eastern side of the US I had an advantage, because it was so different than my main competitions' tracks and what they were used to. At that time most of the best riders were from California, and it was a big adjustment for me the first time to go to California and race on those hardpack clay tracks. The soil conditions were so hard compared to what we were used to back here."
THE BIKE: "That was a works Husky, and that was before the AMA production rule came into effect so we were still allowed to ride full-on works bikes and all the factory riders had them. They were not made into production, they were all hand-built, one-off machines, and they only made a handful of them. And that Husky was awesome. Every part on it was made form the best material they could make it out of. The bike was light weight, and legendary engine tuner, still today Eric Crippa, was my mechanic. That engine was awesome for that time... Most of the US riders got the works bikes that the Europeans developed, they shared those with us, because at that time European riders had more experience in testing and helping the factories to develop the bikes; so the Americans got what they had developed. I believe that bike was right around a 360 or 380cc displacement, which most of the bikes where at that time. They didn't bump up to 500cc until about the early 80s. Back in the mid-70s they were still usually right around 400cc... When I got that bike I just loved it right off the bat. We already had some pretty good works Huskys before that, but they just kept making them better, and that thing was awesome."
TODAY: "I retired from racing for a living, 1984 was my last year. I still love to ride, and I started doing motocross schools in 1985. Along the way I started to produce motocross technique videos. I did my first one in 1991 and I'm still doing that today. I'm still teaching some motocross schools and I've gotten more into the motocross technique DVD production. I love to help riders get better and spread what I have learned. I'm just having a blast riding still and helping other riders."

More than 13.4 million passengers per annum travel on the short-haul domestic service, making it the the most in-demand air route in the world, according route development company, Routes.
The route has an average of 180 scheduled flights per day – that's one every 8 minutes – transporting mainly leisure travellers from South Korea's dense capital city to the island, famed for its white sandy beach resorts and volcanic landscape.
A total of 13,460,305 passengers flew between Seoul and Jejuin 2017, an increase of 9.4% on the previous 12 months when the route was also ranked as the busiest in the world.
It carried a staggering 4,369,364 more people than the second busiest, Melbourne – Sydney.
Although the United States remains the world's largest aviation market, the analysis by Routes found that air services in the Asia-Pacific region dominate the top 100 busiest routes by passenger numbers, accounting for more than 70% of the total.
Hong Kong – Taiwan Taoyuan is the busiest international route and features as the 8th most popular overall, with 6,719,029 passengers flying the 802 km in 2017.
Hong Kong, the home hub for Cathay Pacific, features in six of the top ten international routes.
The study also found thatthe Thai domestic route of Bangkok Suvarnabhumi – Chiang Mai is the fastest-growing route in the top 100. Two-way passenger numbers grew by3 6% year-on-year to almost 2.4 million.
The research has been released as 3,000 aviation professionals prepare to gather at World Routes 2018, taking place in Guangzhou, China, between September 15-18.
The event is a global meeting place for airlines, airports and tourism organisations to discuss new market opportunities and the evolution of existing services.
Steven Small, brand director of Routes, said: "This research backs up forecasts that the Asia-Pacific region will be the biggest driver of passenger demandover the next 20 years. Such staggering aviation growth means it is the perfect time for World Routes to return to China.
"The event will bring together senior decision makers from across the world to plan new air services and discuss increasing the frequency and capacity of the existing routes that are popular with passengers.
"The negotiations in taking place in Guangzhou could pave the way to the busiest routes of the future."
The busiest routes in the world were calculated by using OAG Schedules Analyser to find the top 500 routes by overall seat capacity in 2017. The routes were then ranked by passenger numbers using data provided by Sabre Market Intelligence.
The top 5 busiest scheduled passenger routes in the world:
Passengers (2017)
1. Jeju–Seoul Gimpo (CJU-GMP) –13.4 million
2. Melbourne–Sydney (MEL-SYD) – 9.09 million
3. Sapporo-Tokyo Haneda(CTS-HND) – 8.7 million
4. Fukuoka–TokyoHaneda(FUK-HND) – 7.8 million
5. Mumbai–Delhi (BOM-DEL) –7.1 million
The top 5 busiest scheduled internationalroutesin the world:
Passengers (2017)
1. Hong Kong–Taiwan Taoyuan (HKG-TPE) – 6.7 million
2. Jakarta–Singapore Changi (CGK-SIN) – 4.8 million
3. Hong Kong–Shanghai Pudong (HKG-PVG) – 4.16 million
4. Kuala Lumpur–Singapore Changi (KUL-SIN) – 4.1 million
5. Bangkok Suvarnabhumi–Hong Kong (BKK-HKG) – 3.4 million
The busiest routes by region:
Jeju–Seoul Gimpo (CJU-GMP) is the busiest within Asia-Pacific (1st overall)
Jeddah–Riyadh King Kalid (JED-RUH) is the busiest within the Middle East (12th overall)
Cape Town–OR Tambo Johannesburg (CPT-JNB) is the busiest within Africa (18th overall)
Cancun–Mexico City (CUN-MEX) is the busiest within South/Central America (19th overall)
New York JFK–Los Angeles (JFK-LAX) is the busiest within North America (30th overall)

New Federal Withholding Tables
On January 11, 2018, the Internal Revenue Service released Notice 1036, which updates the income-tax withholding tables for 2018 reflecting changes made by the tax reform legislation enacted last month. The IRS reports that this is the first in a series of steps that the IRS will take to help improve the accuracy of withholding following major changes made by the new tax law.
The new withholding tables are designed to work with the Forms W-4 that workers have already filed with their employers to claim withholding allowances. This will minimize the burden on taxpayers and employers. Employees are not required to do anything at this time. However, employees should review their withholding status as they could be under-withheld if they claim a significant number of withholding allowances or have more complicated tax situations. Note that the flat withholding rate on supplemental wages of $1 million or less during the calendar year has decreased from 25% to 22% and the mandatory supplemental wage rate on payments totaling over $1 million during the calendar year has decreased from 39.6% to 37%.
The new withholding tables have been implemented by effective January 21, 2018 and will be reflected in your employee paychecks.
The IRS continues to work on more detailed withholding information, which will be available soon in Publication 15 and related publications. For additional information visit the IRS website.

anna + rama – NYC Engagement – Day I
Anna and Rama met and fell in love whilst they were both living in NYC. The couple have now relocated to LA but wanted to document the beginning of their love story with an epic 2 day shoot. The city was literally our playground… and play we did. Day one took us to the beautiful cherry blossoms in Central Park followed by the Brooklyn Bridge and Times Square with various spots along the way… including one very rickety fire escape!

A year ago, a friend of mine introduced me to Baumann Steakhouse to bring some culture to my life almost. I was two months into my life in Korea, and in Daegu to the other extent, and my only experience with a steakhouse was in Kansas.
I didn't mind it, but there was a lot of country music, folk art, Sunday-dinner families, and six buffet lines. Upon telling her this, her face morphed into something comparable to me harming a puppy. She insisted I go with her and experience this place of fine dining.
Now, coming back on my own and able to take my time with my choices, I ordered the Sea Bass. Although I encourage you to order the line of steak options, if you're a lover of fish, then Baumann Steakhouse can provide you this succulent choices.
But, before this main course arrived, soup was laid before me to give time for its preparation. The first taste of this introduction was a palate cleanser; gentle, smooth, and each dip into the porcelain soup bowl provided little-to-no aftertaste. As I tasted each spoonful, I couldn't recognize the taste, which should be case for a proper soup. It's meant to be a distant memory of the actual taste you should experience with what you really came for.
The bread is usually left to the wayside, but in this case, the presentation was unique. Three slices of toasted heaven, with crème butter and chocolate dot spread, was a nice vehicle throughout the meal.
Timing is everything here because the waiter and waitress immediately arrived with the salad. The chocolate circle circumventing this elegant mix of legumes visually jumped at me, because it was more a piece of art, rather than what's to be consumed. Pushing past the need to observe rather than eat, taking a split second to take a photo, I speared the first leaves of lettuce and cloves, with its citron dressing.
My sea bass arrived. A good fish is when the first fork slices it gently, but barely falls apart. The gentle flakiness, mingled with the soft steam, the swirl of my fork with the white citron sauce, and the slicing of my knife into the asparagus, red onions, and cloves forced me to slow down and savor each bite.
Finally, dessert approached, but not the pastry or cake you would imagine. Rather, mango juice is served to round out those calories to an even number. You'll leave Baumann Steakhouse very satisfied. My only regret is not sending my compliments to the chef, which is something I'll do when I return for my shot at their line of steaks.

We're delighted to announce that our sponsored skaters and brand ambassadors for 2019 are FRANCESCA GUERIN, CAITLYN BAXBY, EMMA WATT, LILY WALDING, MEGAN SHORROCK and AVA MAE WILSON. We're looking forward sharing their training and competitive journey over the coming year so make sure you follow us on social media to follow along.
FRANCESCA is 16 years old and her home rink is Blackpool / Blackburn. Coached by Natalia Pestova, Alexei Kislitsyn and Stephen Pickavance, she holds the current British Ice Dance Champion title at Advanced Novice level. Francesca is now moving to the Junior category for the coming season and competes internationally as well as in the UK. Francesca holds a place on the GB Development Squad.
CAITLYN is 10 years old and her home rink is Widnes. Coached by Amanda Galloway, she competes at Level 2 in her Free and at Basic Novice in Solo Ice Dance. She won 1st place in her solo free dance at Murrayfield this year and she also holds a place on the GB Development Squad. Caitlyn is a determined young lady who pushes herself to excel in her skating and master the skills she needs.
EMMA is 17 years old and her home rink is Kirkcaldy but in the summer, that rink shuts and she has to travel to other rinks in order to keep training. She's coached by Jackie Coubrough and competes at Intermediate Novice level. She's recently achieved two silver medals at Blackpool and Lee Valley. Emma is also passionate about coaching and helps the younger skaters at her rink both on and off the ice.
LILY is our youngest sponsored skater this year at only 7 years old. Her home rink is Cardiff and she's coached by Tracey Keeble. She competes at Beginner under 8 level but has recently achieved scores to move up to Level 1 after a series of podium finishes over the last 3 months. She also competes in ice dance at juvenile level and qualified for the British championships this year. She was selected for the Young Stars Development Squad earlier this year and recently qualified for the GB Development Squad in both dance and free skating!!
MEGAN is 12 years old and her home rink is Blackpool. She's coached by Katie Stainsby and competes at Beginner level. Megan has quite severe scoliosis of her spine and skates with 2 titanium rods in her back. This makes many skating moves difficult or impossible for her due to flexibility but Megan never gives up and always finds a way to achieve and progress her skating. She's now landing her axel consistently as well as all her single jumps and continues to push forward with her next challenge.
AVA MAE is 10 years old and her home rink is Basingstoke. She's coached by David Lunn, Katie Bennett and Stephanie Robson as well as enjoying occasional lessons with Dancing on Ice's Hamish Gaman. She competes at Advanced Novice level both in the UK and Internationally. She's working hard on landing her double axel.
Our next sponsorship window will be open from 1st – 28th February 2020 during which time we will be accepting applications via our online form only. Full details will be released onto our Facebook page and website on 1st February. Unfortunately we cannot accept sponsorship applications at any other time during the year.

Stop me if you've heard this before.
Run for Central Park four-miler. Kind of warm, kind of humid.
Given my lack of speedwork, I went into this as a good way to get some. I knew I wasn't needed for the Club (it's a team-scoring race), so that took pressure off. Got there in plenty of time, but the sun was beating down on the start, so held off until about 8:47 to get into corral 1. Stayed farther back than normal.
The course: start on the East Drive south of 72nd, up Cat Hill. Mile 1 at the start of the straight between 87th and 93rd. Left on 102nd transverse, where hit mile 2. South down west side, with mile 3 at about 87th Street. Finish with a left turn onto 72nd Street transverse.
Race began at 9, and it took me quite a while to start moving. I probably was too far back as I had to fight my way through for a while. But I didn't feel great, didn't feel fast. Up Cat Hill (with a wave to Cat) and grabbed water before the Mile 1 mark. Past the mark: Clock read 6:17, although my watch had it at 6:11. This is slow, even with Cat Hill.
But I started to feel OK. Cutting the tangents like crazy (and virtually alone in doing so) and into a groove. Not super-fast, but feeling solid, good form. 2 at about 12:10. Grab water. A solid mile 3, which has three slight ups. Picking off plenty of people. See Lara of NYFlyGirl, who I met at the recent get-together, but she doesn't recognize me; I recognize her because she cheers for a NY Flyer right ahead of me.
Final mile is largely downhill, but it still always hurts. I see a couple of older-looking guys ahead and don't think I can catch them. But I start picking it up a bit, and I get them both. Sharp left — one of the two cuts me off a little so I give him a chop. Finish is not as deep into the transverse as it used to be, and I'm grateful for that. Run all the way through. Final time: 24:09. 161st overall, 6th AG, 81.0% age-graded, the lowest age-grading I've ever had in a road race. (Some, but decidedly not all, of my clubmates also ran poorly.)
Jogged up to 125th Street Metro-North station with a bunch of clubmates, which was fun. WSSAC's Masters, though, only finished second (although it remains in the lead).
I'm not surprised by this since I'm working things through and have only done one speedworkout recently. So get in a solid Tempo run this coming week and regular speed after that and I should be fine.
Next race: Club Champs. Aug. 8.

Physical training seems to be a major key for me to help calm my mind. But it's early in the game to make any definitive statements. After two years using Muse I will have a much better idea.
All I want to do is just keep moving in the general right direction. I'm ok with having struggles and set backs along the way.

Build Season ended about three weeks ago. In that time, GRT has been to the week one FIRST Robotics Competition in Del Mar. The team sent a skeleton crew, including the drivers of the robot, subgroup leaders, and the leadership team, to the competition. This was the first competition for a few of the rookies in the crew and it was a very exciting experience. As this was a week one competition, many teams were still working out kinks in their robots and getting practice driving and competing. GRT was one of these teams. Del Mar was a good learning experience. Although GRT was working through some problems with the robot and the competition routine in general, being at the competition allowed the crew to get a feel for the competition atmosphere and provided them the chance to problem-solve and learn on the fly.
In the competition, GRT finished as the fourteenth ranked robot out of thirty-five total teams. Although the team didn't finish as one of the eight alliance captains, we were selected as the second pick for the eighth seed alliance. This meant that GRT would be matched up with the first seed alliance in the quarterfinals. This was a difficult match for the team and GRT ended up losing. Still, the team saw great growth in Del Mar, both in learning how to compete and in the performance of the robot. GRT left Del Mar with a better robot than which it entered with.
The team also won the Autonomous Award sponsored by Ford! This was a huge accomplishment for our controls team. Though GRT is still improving its autonomous, the new and complex techniques implemented by the controls team led to the judges awarding us this award.
All in all, the Del Mar Competition was a great experience for GRT. In the coming weeks, we will be preparing for our next competition in Monterey, to which the whole team will be traveling.

A Cinderella-ish makeover for your cheap vodka
An important hack for the vodka-lovers
Sep 18, 2017
Being a liquor connoisseur on a budget usually means having to settle for cheap-ass liquor from the supermarket or a 24-hour convenience store. Today, thanks to the internet, this compromise has to be no more.
Browsing online, we came by an old post from Epicurious talking about an easy hack to level up your vodka from being store-bought to almost premium. Almost.
The hack is simple enough. You just need a Brita pitcher filter (see below), cheap vodka, and a glass—shot glass, tumbler, normal drinking glass, or a cup, doesn't matter. Pour your alcohol into the pitcher. Wait for it to filter through. Then drink your vodka whichever way you prefer.
To understand how this hack works, Epicurious writer Tommy Werner explained what happens when vodka is processed.
"In vodka distillation, a producer takes fermentable materials (anything from wheat to heirloom single-variety potatoes) and mills and cooks them into a pulp known as the mash. The mash gets a little yeast added to it, and it ferments until the sugars have converted to alcohol." Werner explained. "Once it finishes with distillation, the vodka gets blended with water and then filtered, using activated charcoal to remove any impurities."
The internet logic is, the Brita pitcher continues the filtration process of your store-bought vodka thanks to the charcoal found in the pitcher's filter.
What exactly does this filtration process remove that makes the drink taste better? Werner has got that covered, too. It appears that the Brita removes all the sugar and oil, which is added to the vodka to alter the taste and mask some of the burn. Stripped away of these two, your cheap drink gives a smoother drag down your throat, less of a burn, and less of an aroma.
This trick doesn't work miracles though. Your cheap vodka won't suddenly become premium-level vodka in five minutes. But, it will be undeniably better than how you got it, at the very least better for making a good glass of Moscow Mule with.
Do you know a better hack than this? Maybe one that doesn't require this one specific pitcher? Let us know.
