According to the National Center for Educational Statistics, more than 62,000 first-time Tennessee undergraduates sought four-year degrees or certificates in 2016. Of these, 16,700 learners enrolled exclusively in distance education courses, equaling 5.4 percent of all students. That number rose to 55,100, or 17.7 percent, when including students enrolled in both online and on-campus courses. In response to this growing popularity, many colleges and universities are expanding their blended and online learning options. But with so many opportunities available now and in the future, how do students find the best one for them? Read on to learn the ins and outs of online colleges and universities in Tennessee.
Several key variables impact your college decision, including your academic and professional goals, budget and educational background. Start by asking some questions; do you intend to enroll as a full- or part-time student? At the colleges that stand out, how many students go on to obtain jobs or pursue graduate or doctoral degrees? Consider the average number of students taking courses, is the quality of a school's faculty, and institutional accreditation important? When searching for the best four-year undergraduate programs in Tennessee, we consider all these variables and more to create a list of the online colleges we believe provide the best combination of online student success and quality learning environment. Take a look below:
The Tennessee Regents Online Campus Collaborative (ROCC) makes up one of the most comprehensive online state college and university degree platforms in the nation. ROCC's Tennessee eCampus Initiative allows prospective students to explore more than 500 online degrees and certificates and over 400 online courses offered at colleges and universities throughout the state.
Transferring academic credits earned elsewhere, or receiving credit for the knowledge or experience gained outside a formal educational program, proves invaluable for students. Tennessee Transfer programs guarantee that academic credits earned at a community college for two-year associate degrees will transfer to a four-year bachelor's degrees at any public university and many private universities statewide.
Some colleges in Tennessee also grant credit for demonstrated prior learning. Tennessee State University allows students to earn college credit for prior knowledge in two ways: a credit by exam and a portfolio assessment. Exams can be standard via the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) and Defense Activities for Non-Traditional Education Support (DANTES), or administered by specific departments to gauge knowledge in a certain area. The second way is by portfolio assessment, which individual colleges and universities can provide more detail on.
Earning a college degree is an important first step toward better career prospects and enhanced earning power. Using data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the table below shows a strong correlation between higher education and larger salaries among all Tennessee workers, regardless of industry or profession.

While trade and commerce play an important part in Tennessee's economy, the state also has a burgeoning tourism industry. In response, local colleges are providing degree-earning opportunities in hospitality and tourism-related industries.
In addition to tourism, Tennessee's thriving tech culture has made it a fertile ground for start-ups. Colleges in Tennessee are even teaming up with corporations to provide students career opportunities in technology and engineering right out of college.
When researching online colleges in Tennessee, understanding accreditation is critical. Not only does it tell employers that you have a quality degree from a reputable institution, but it's a key step to securing federal financial aid. Here are the two types of accreditation you need to look for when researching online colleges in Tennessee.
Regional accreditation is the most important stamp of approval for U.S. colleges and universities. All state colleges and universities in Tennessee hold regional accreditation from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges. The Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools does similarly for independent, non-public career schools, colleges and organizations in both the U.S. and abroad. This assures students of the school's high quality, as the institution voluntarily and successfully passed an independent, peer-review process to earn accreditation.
Some schools or programs within colleges and universities may seek out and earn specialized accreditation. This signifies quality and consistency in education in a certain subject area. Many business schools look to earn accreditation from the Association for the Advancement of Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), and psychology programs may seek accreditation from the American Psychological Association (APA).
Tuition may be on the rise—not only in Tennessee but nationwide—but a college degree remains one of the best ways to earn a stronger salary. Let's see how Tennessee tuition stacks up against the national average.
In-State Tuition, Public Colleges & Universities: $8,932
Change from 2015 $437
National Average:$8,778
In-State Tuition, Private Colleges & Universities: $15,359
Change from 2015 $1,160
National Average:$27,951

Tennessee took bold action to make higher education more accessible in May 2017 when the state expanded the Tennessee Promise program to pay tuition costs for all adults who enroll in an in-state community college. The program initially covered community college tuition costs for recent high school graduates. For eligibility, students need to reside in state for a period of one year prior to enrollment, maintain a 2.0 GPA, enroll in courses with sufficient credits for part-time status and complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
Students from outside Tennessee may consider relocating to attend school and pay in-state tuition rates. The University of Tennessee System maintains the following student residency regulations:
Tennessee's per-credit and overall tuition costs for online undergraduate courses and degrees differ between schools, but often remain more affordable than in many other regions. In-state students enrolled in the University of Tennessee's online undergraduate program paid $12,500, while tuition costs for out-of-state learners totaled $14,300. Here are a few cost-per-credit-hour rates for undergraduate tuition at a variety of online colleges in Tennessee and nearby states:
Blufield State College (West Virginia)
Keep in mind that tuition rates are only one piece of the puzzle when it comes to understanding the full cost of an online education. Fees and additional costs vary for online students between every college and university across Tennessee—check with the Admissions Offices at each school to learn about the full price of attendance.
Many students who pursue a bachelor's degree online require financial assistance to pay for their education. Fortunately, Tennessee learners enjoy a variety of federal, state and local government funding opportunities.
The amount of money awarded by Tennessee Promise scholarships varies. These provide students a "last-dollar scholarship," which means the amount covers tuition and fees not addressed by federal Pell grants, HOPE scholarships or state student assistance funds. Students may use the scholarship at any of the Tennessee's 13 community colleges, 27 colleges of applied technology or other eligible institution offering associate-level degrees.
Adult education plays a key role in Tennessee labor and workforce development, often helping non-traditional learners get on the path to earning a college degree to advance their career prospects. Here are some programs that aspiring college students in Tennessee can take advantage of to jumpstart their college prospects:
High School Equivalency - According to the U.S. Census Bureau 12 percent of Tennessee's adult population had not graduated high school or earned a GED. These programs make it easy for adult learners to earn high school equivalency certificate.
English Language Courses - English proficiency also plays a significant role in unemployment rates in Tennessee-less than half of all non-English speakers in Tennessee hold only a high school credential, making it more difficult to find gainful employment.
Many adult learners enroll in online programs to build these skills and later attend college—some university programs in Tennessee even allow adult education credits to count towards your college degree. The Tennessee Transfer Pathway program specifically provides information for transfer students.

The last time Buffalo hosted NCAA Tournament action, a lot about the city was different. KeyBank Center was First Niagara Center. HarborCenter was still rising; and Canalside's ice rink and interpretive waterways had yet to be finished.
Then there was the locally brewed beer selection.
Sure, upstart breweries had joined cherished veterans like Flying Bison to ignite the city's craft beer scene, but the impressive proliferation of styles and selections had yet to spread into nearly every barroom within walking distance of tourney match-ups.
Three years later, fans will find far more Buffalo brews to explore through game breaks. Here's a list of 10 beers to guide the journey:
12 Gates Wind Forge IPA (6.2 percent ABV)
Where to find it: Pizza Plant (125 Main St.)
Distance from KeyBank Center: 0.3 miles
Why to order: For those who gravitate toward juicy New England-style IPAs and Belgian Wits, there's this amalgamation of the two from 12 Gates Brewing (80 Earhart Drive, Williamsville). And enjoyed away from Lake Erie winds and with or without one of Pizza Plants's famed pizza pods, it's a fine way to toast a win—or bury a loss.
42 North Asylum Porter (6.8 percent)
Where to find it: 716 Food & Sport (7 Scott St.)
Distance from KBC: 0.1 miles
Why to order: Smooth, dark and delicious, this selection from 42 North in nearby East Aurora should please fans who prefer chocolate notes in their pregame beers. And inside the audio-visual palace that is HarborCenter's 716, fans can enjoy rounds of porter while surrounded by walls of small, large and gargantuan television screens.
Ellicottville Brewing Co. Keepin' It Peel IPA (5 percent)
Where to find it: Ballyhoo Links & Drinks (211 South Park Ave.)
Distance from KBC: 0.4 miles
Why to order: Just because the weather's closer to winter than summer doesn't mean drinkers can't indulge in sunnier tastes. EBC's tangy citrus IPA certainly provides the chance to do this and, inside Ballyhoo, an excuse to team a few pints with some of Buffalo finest house-made sausages.
Community Beer Works The Whale (5.9 percent)
Where to find it: Liberty Hound (1 Naval Park Cove)
Distance from KBC: 0.2 miles
Why to order: One of Buffalo's go-to brown ales features two types of chocolate malt within its deep, roasted flavor, yet it's light enough for repetitious consumption. Inhaling a few inside the Liberty Hound will give drinkers a compact spot to enjoy this local brew, as well as a nice view of the city's Central Wharf and riverfront.
Big Ditch Short Cut Session IPA (5 percent)
Where to find it: Big Ditch Brewery (55 E. Huron St.)
Distance from KBC: 1.2 miles
Why to order: There are plenty of beers you could taste inside the award-winning brewery's downtown taproom. But seeing as it's a longer walk than most of this list's recommendations, the low ABV of this scaled-down version of the brewer's Deep Cut Double IPA seems to be the responsible decision.
Hamburg Brewing Co. Irish Red Ale (4.8 percent)
Where to find it: The Mahony (199 Scott St.)
Distance from KBC: 0.6 miles
Why to order: Tis the season to order beers that feature the word "Irish" in their title, so visitors can celebrate pre- or post-St. Patrick's Day with this year-round Southtowns favorite. And inside the converted Fairmont Creamery's Mahony, fans might find a clandestine escape from KBC crowds (as long as no one else reads this).
Resurgence IPA (7.2 percent)
Where to find it: Buffalo Iron Works (49 Illinois St.)
Distance from KBC: 0.2 miles
Why to order: The Niagara Street brewer's full-bodied IPA is its flagship selection, now available on draft and canned across the region. But for those in Buffalo for the first time, the selection provides a strong introduction to the city's brewing scene against the gritty brick-and-timber backdrop of Iron Works.
19th Anniversary Imperial Oatmeal Stout (10.2 percent)
Where to find it: Pearl Street Grill & Brewery (76 Pearl St.)
Distance from KBC: 0.5 miles
Why to order: When Pearl Street first opened at the corner of Pearl and Seneca streets, it was one of the only local bars that offered house-brewed craft drafts. Today, it's one of many, but are pouring this frothy and potent oatmeal stout to celebrate its role as a nearly two decades old trailblazer.
NY Beer Project's GameDay Belgian White (5.4 percent)
Where to find it: Lockhouse Distillery & Bar (41 Columbia St.)
Distance from KBC: 0.3 miles
Why to order: The Lockport brewer has reached its bulk of customers with pints inside its cavernous Niagara County headquarters. But now with availability inside the Cobblestone's cozy distillery, NYBP can provide basketball fans an apropos selection to team with Lockhouse's premium spirits.
Genesee Cream Ale (5.1 percent)
Where to find it: Swannie House (170 Ohio St.)
Distance from KBC: 0.4 miles
Why to order: Is Genny really a Buffalo beer? No, but the Rochester favorite has been a part of the Queen City's celebrations and mistakes for generations. Out-of-towners should get a taste of our history, and they can do so with a Screamer inside Buffalo's second oldest tavern, the beloved Swannie.

This is some extremely rare Simon Le Greed footage from 1994! The video was shot on Pro Super VHS at Mancini's Nightclub in Chatsworth California when Greed played a show with the metal band Bitch. Because of the formatting the video footage was unviewed until very recently when the footage was transferred to DVD format. We picked a couple tracks from the show and made a couple of Live videos. The line up at the time was Robert Wright playing guitar and doing vocals, Dave Carruth on lead guitar, Jerry Sandeen on bass and Scott Truelove on Drums. We hope you enjoy watching them!

Search Engine Optimization or SEO
Search Engine Optimization.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO for short) is a huge topic and if you search on any search engine you will find thousands if not millions of websites claiming to have the Holy Grail to SEO. Search Engines use spiders to crawl through your site and judge it for it's relevancy and popularity. The Meta tags you use, and in particular the title and keyword tags, as well as keyword optimized content and plenty of back links from other sites will improve your search engine ranking. SEO is the art of achieving this through many different methods. There is no set formula as to the best approach, but there are very large amounts of people who claim to know the secret… at a fair price of course.
Search Engine Optimization ultimately provides you with free traffic.
Once you've paid for SEO work to be done on site you will not need to pay for the traffic that it generates, and if done properly it will generate large volumes of highly targeted traffic on a regular basis. These visitors have already searched on the terms that are most closely associated with your website and this means they have basically been screened as being interested in the service you have to offer. From there it is down to you and your website to do the rest.
Effective SEO should be maintained on a regular basis.
For Search Engine Optimization to be thoroughly effective it should not stop once you reach the desired level in the search engines. The second you stop is the second that other companies overtake you in the ranking. You need to redouble your SEO efforts in order to retain the coveted top spot and stay ahead of the game. While this does mean regular payments to whomever is doing your SEO the monthly payments required will regularly drop to a reasonable level. The benefits of good SEO far outweigh these costs.
Basic DIY SEO.
If you are considering doing your SEO work yourself there are a few things you should really know before you begin. Firstly, get a professional to design your site who has a good understanding of SEO. If you are writing the content yourself you need to research keywords that are most widely used by searchers. There are websites available that will give you a brief insight into this. Once you have your keywords, you can give them to your designer to incorporate into the site Meta tags. You should also use these keywords regularly throughout the body of your text. If in doubt, there are freelance service providers who offer this service at very reasonable costs.

Apparently helps you run a Greyhawk campaign
I believe that this book was sort the beginning of the transition from first to second edition, however it is now, like most of the other books released around this time, pretty much obsolete. Mind you those old books, if you toss away the rule components, or at least attempt to upgrade them, can still be useful for source materials, however some of them, like this book, are pretty much useless. Mind you, unless you are running a game set in Greyhawk, this book is pretty much useless anyway (and I suspect that even if you are running a Greyhawk adventure you will still find it pretty useless).
Dungeons and Dragons is a funny game, and there are still churches out there that call it the tool of the devil and that we should have nothing whatsoever to do with it. I think that is a little narrow minded, but then again a lot of these churches are fundamentalist to the extreme and teach that if you do not believe in a literal seven day creation, or a pre-millenialist view of the end times, them you are watering down the gospel. However, I have also heard it used where the speaker clearly does not actually understand anything about the game in and of itself, and this is worse because their attacks are based on ignorance.
My problem with Dungeons and Dragons is more on the aspect that it can, and does, take up an awful lot of your time. I would spend lots of time finely crafting an adventure hat would only be played once, if ever. I would also spend bucket loads of money on books that I would probably never use and are now sitting in plastic crates. Hey, even as a teenager, my obsession with Dungeons and Dragons was so great that I would fly into fits of rage if I could not play it, and I even resorted to shoplifting to get the books I wanted (and also proceeded to get caught and punished).
These days though, I still like it, and have even played it recently, but really have no desire to sacrifice the time that is required to play the game properly. With the internet it is much easier to find groups (through websites like Meetup) and easier to bring together groups. However, that was always problematic because it was hard to ever find a good group, and sometimes one bad player will join the group which ends up ruining the game for everybody.

Ukrainian authorities have reacted to a video appeal by Yulia Tymoshenko by publishing their own film of the jailed ex-prime minister.
From the hospital where she is being held she is seen strongly protesting at not being allowed to see supporters that a guard denies are outside.
The episode highlights tension ahead of parliamentary elections next month.
Earlier in a separate video recorded by her lawyers, Tymoshenko called on Ukrainians to end President Yanukovich's rule.
"If you will not understand that criminals are ruling Ukraine, the mafia are ruling, nothing will protect you from everything is happening today with Yanukovich on top," she said.
As guards tried but failed to end the recording, the ex-Orange Revolution leader said she was enduring "hell" while serving a seven-year sentence for abuse of office.
Her treatment for back trouble has prevented a second trial on charges of embezzlement and tax evasion from going ahead.
In the elections, Tymoshenko's party has formed an alliance with another pro-Western opposition movement to challenge Victor Yanukovich.
His Party of the Regions and its allies are expected to retain a majority, but some opinion polls put the opposition a close second.

Nuff' Said
If you work in marketing, you probably share this experience: You are trying to write copy for a website, brochure or email campaign. Your client - who might be your boss or an outside client - can't stop adding to the project. "But we also can provide X! We need to tell our customers that, too. What about the history of the company? Can you add a photo of everyone who works here?"
No you can't! Not if you want anyone outside your little world to care, much less buy what you are selling.
There is something I like about Twitter, the latest "killer app" that facilitates an endless stream of information online or on your phone at 140 characters per tweet.
It's not that I subscribe to the "no thought unexpressed" revolution that has us all drowning in too much information. It's that communicating in 140 characters requires that you choose the right words to convey your message effectively.
Does everyone who "tweets" write clearly? Of course not. But I am an optimist. I believe that we might all benefit from the exercise of editing ourselves ruthlessly.
A friend who teaches at Drexel University recently told me that she is going to have students use Twitter as one vehicle for them to deliver assignments. She said she wants to see if the class can write something meaningful in only a few words.
Writing economically is paramount to capturing the attention of your audience. Especially in the sea of information that engulfs us, few messages stand out. There really can be Too Much Information. And unfortunately, too many business owners and executives in companies of all sizes do not understand that less really can be more.
There are lots of books, articles, conferences, and speakers that tell you to target your audience and write specifically for and to them. You can choose to think like your customer and write what they need and want to hear. You can also follow Martha Stewart who says, "Don't ask customers what they need. Tell them." Regardless of the point of view, you have to deliver your message quickly, and that is not so easy.
I recently heard Bill Wasik, a senior editor at Harpers Magazine, discuss "informational environmentalism." He said that our "mental ecosystems are overwhelmed," and he likened today's information overload to a buffet that is producing a new kind of obesity. Our minds are bloated.
We are all trying to trim budgets to ensure financial health. Why not take a look at the messages you are sending out into the world to see if you can present a lean, clear communication?
Try this exercise. It is a new spin on the old "elevator" speech in which you have the time it takes for an elevator ride to tell a stranger what your company does. Try writing it in 140 characters. Our minds will thank you.

Thieves have been working in tandem to target people using cash machines, especially the elderly.
Three such thefts took place on two days in Haverhill sparking concern as the thieves approached their victims mid transaction, distracted them and then stole their bank cards.
One woman was grabbed by the arm by a thief who tried to thrust a piece of paper at her.
The first theft saw an elderly man targeted by two men who told him the cash machine had 'eaten' his card when it had actually been stolen by one of the men. The card was then subsequently used to steal money from the elderly man's account.
The incident happened on January 11 at 7.30am outside the Lloyds Bank on High Street, Haverhill.
Two other thefts took place at Sainsbury's in Haycock's Road. A man first distracted an elderly woman with a piece of paper and then stole her bank card at 10.05am on January 13.
Suffolk Police said two men have been involved.
Later the same day (January 13) at 5.40pm a woman in her 40s fell victim to the same distraction when a man in a blue baseball cap and puffa jacket grabbed her by the arm and thrust a piece of paper at her.
The thief then used the card to draw money from another cashpoint.
Anyone who witnessed any of these incidents or has any knowledge of them should contact Suffolk police on 101, quoting crime references 2580/18 (11 January) 2493/18 and 2499/18 (13 January) or use the online link http://www.suffolk.police.uk/contact-us/report-something . Alternatively, call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
How to protect yourself from cash machine thieves
Cash machines are an ideal opportunity for thieves to steal withdrawn funds/cards or record your PIN number to gain access to your account.
There are a number of things you can do to protect your card when withdrawing cash from a cash machine.
Suffolk Police advise:
• Avoid using a cashpoint late at night or in a deserted street
• Leave the cash point as soon as you have completed the transaction
• Cover your pin when entering it so that no one else can see it
• Never count money in the street, put it away immediately
• Be aware of your surroundings
• Thieves use portable devices, which are attached to the outside of the cash machines to clone your cash card. The devices give the normal appearance of a machine frontage and are simply stuck onto the machine.
Cameras are also used, often hidden in leaflet holders. Check for anything abnormal or suspicious, and if you have any doubt use another machine.
Thieves can operate in groups at cash machines using diversionary tactics i.e. tapping you on the shoulder and asking if you have dropped some money while a second person takes your card and/or money. Be alert of who is around you. Cover your PIN and always opt to use the cash machines inside the branch or business premises if possible.

Making an estate plan is the type of activity that some people in Colorado might prefer to put off. However, the problem with this is that it can be put off until it is too late. While many people may think of an estate plan as deciding who will get a person's assets, it is also important to plan in case a person becomes incapacitated.
One man found this out when he phoned a lawyer about paying for his father's care in a nursing home because he had developed dementia. The man's father had him listed as the beneficiary on his bank account, but because the father was still alive, the man could not access the funds. When he phoned an attorney, he was surprised to learn that his father would have to sign a power of attorney so that the man could access the account.
The attorney explained that if there was no existing power of attorney, then it would be necessary to appoint the son as a guardian in order to access the account. This is an expensive and time-consuming process. Fortunately, the son went back to the father's estate plan and was able to locate a power of attorney.
This story illustrates the importance not only of creating an estate plan that takes care of finances in case a person is incapacitated but also the importance of discussing those plans with loved ones. Furthermore, in the case of a medical power of attorney, which appoints someone to make medical decisions, people may want to discuss their health care preferences with family members. Another reason to have this discussion with family members is that it allows people the opportunity to turn down any roles they are not comfortable with. A lawyer may help facilitate these discussions and prepare the proper paperwork.

Police: Woman shot after driving into a man, dragging him through a parking lot
This story has been updated to reflect new information from SAPD:
San Antonio police say a fight outside of a Northwest Side sports bar ended in a shooting when security guards opened fire on a driver who according to police, was dragging a man stuck underneath her truck through the parking lot after running into him.
Officers did not say what the two people had been fighting about outside the Perfect Score Sports Cantina in the 6400 block of Loop 410 at about 1:45 a.m., but at some point, the woman, 25, got in her truck and drove into the man police have identified as Joel Berlanga, 26.
When security guards at the sports bar witnessed the truck dragging Berlanga, the guards pulled their firearms and began shooting at the truck, hitting the unidentified woman twice, police said.
Berlanga was able to free himself from the truck and ran off but soon collapsed near the Loop 410 frontage road.
The driver of the truck lost control after being shot and crashed into a parked 18-wheeler truck, police said.
The woman suffered gunshot wounds to her arm and her neck and was transported to University Hospital in critical condition. Berlanga was also taken to University Hospital but in serious condition.
In a statement Sunday afternoon, police report Berlanga is now in stable condition.
San Antonio firefighters also responded to deal with a punctured gas tank on the 18-wheeler.
The two unidentified guards were taken to SAPD's Night Criminal Investigations Detail and questioned.
As of 1 p.m. Sunday, no arrests had been made and no charges filed as police continue to investigate.


text: What's up guys and welcome back to a brand new episode here at The Koi Partner. Last october I made a number of episodes about Jumbo Koi who came from the Mud Pond. You can watch these episodes If you click on the link at the end of this video that already appear in the right upper corner right now. So in this episode I explain why koi grows so fast in a natural Mud Pond. I show you different Footage of koi breeders how they do it in Japan Before a koi can reach this size they stay in the Mud Pond for some seasons So let's start at the beginning in the summer the temperatures in Niigata rise very high while in the winter huge amounts of snowfall. An ideal combination for growing koi, let me explain why.. It is now mid-february and the breeders are selling their one-year-old koi to their customers from all around the world. During this time of the year the breeders can do little work outside In winter up to 4 meters of snow can fall in this area Niigata also has one of the most popular ski areas in Japan. Inside the work continues and breeders slowly prepare for the new koi season. During the months of March and April the metres of snow that has fallen into the empty mud ponds are slowly melting During the spring the mud ponds filled with fresh and ice-cold meltwater. When the Sun warms of the water the breeders can start preparing for the first koi in their mud ponds First their breeders are releasing the smallest koi and after that they release the larger ones There can sometimes be weeks or even months in between.. The reason? Smaller fish can do more against the temperature fluctuations during the first spring months then of course the bigger koi During the hot summer months the fish grow very fast, in addition to feeding koi food.. the Koi make optimal use of the many natural food sources such as shrimps, frogs and other high-protein foods.. But there's another reason why this koi grows so fast in a natural mud pond.. Niigata prefecture is known for its rich clay soils.. the large presence of minerals and vitamins ensure that the koi can develop optimally. A supply of fresh water and you have created the ideal growing environment for a fish.. It is now October, forever dealer and breeder exciting times. The fish that we're allowed to grow in the mud pond have grown enormously. Depending on their age, the younger the fish are the more the grow they get. When the Koi gets older and they grow at a slower pace from all around the world dealers and hobbyists came to see which results their fish and those of the breeders have achieved. A whole happening where it is quite a party to see the Koi of very high quality at their very very best. After the nets against predators and bears and according to its removed starts catching the fish, a precise job.. Where a mistake produces the same extra work. time that the breeders Desperately needs during the harvest season. When all the fish are caught they go to the greenhouses. Here all the fish are checked for the length quality and health. The fish are also offered here for sale, if they are not sold they will continue swimming in the winter..

I am showing you what I am using, but hoping it inspires you to think of other creative ways to decorate As you can see, I already made three roller skates I am putting four on the sides of the cake Using an ice skate cookie cutter, I am pressing into the pink fondant Pull up on the sides Then using a pizza cutter or knife, cut off the blade Now the blade is gone Using a #12 tip, make 4 small circles for the laces to go I am using the #12 tip to decorate the sides of the cake later Then using some white fondant to make the show laces Make think strips with the pizza cutter Cut them about one-half inch You will need four for each skate Using some water, dab under the fondant to stick to the fondant skate Let it dry before putting on the cake To put the top of the boot, use white fondant Just use top of the cookie cutter to press into the fondant Using a pizza cutter or knife, make a small edge to create the top of the boot Dab some water and press onto the skate You can add more embellishments if you want. I am using a mini heart cutter to add to the skate As you can see, I have already put the three ice skates on the cake I decided to make the icing a regal purple Do know that when you use pink or purple food color, it can fade in the sun Luckily this is an inside roller skating party To center the skate, make a mark where the next skate should go on the side of the cake Put the wheels on first as your guide Take your roller skate and press into the cake I did let the fondant dry for 20 minutes This way nothing would fall off the fondant I am using this other round candy piece for the skate stopper Using white frosting and a #12 tip… I am making a small line border for the bottom of the cake Just a smiple border to meet each wheel There is so much detail, I don't want to do anything fancy Eyes on the roller skates Up here I am going to make some cursive "e's" to make a top border On top I am putting a Number 5. I found it at a craft store (Hobby Lobby) Because little Emma is turning five today Now, using these silver Disco bumble gum balls I am going to place around the top of the cake The kids love those It's the one thing about cakes, the kids want to the piece with the candy If you can't find these gum balls, you can add any candy that compliments the colors I am going to put the Number 5 here For Ms. Emma I will right her name here Here is our finished cake I hope this inspires you!

There are only two types of women–goddesses and doormats.
Pablo Picasso
I tend to give too much credit to the relationships that bring about change in my life. So I'm not going to do that. I will say that an extremely challenging and magical time I spent with a significant person recently brought about awareness of my own strength, all of my weaknesses and my ability to persevere. My fears, my courage and my capacity to love also have risen to the surface. Quite an interesting place to end up. I have had the time to thoroughly sort out the beautiful mess encompassing that experience. Here is what I discovered.
The fear is what started it all. Fear that I wasn't good enough. If I didn't prove my worth I would never be accepted by my peers, partner or family. Being told you're beautiful, have a nice ass, pretty eyes, can only feel good for a little while. It's not enough. I wanted to be known. I wanted to be accepted for who I am. I wanted someone else to do these things for me.
Just as I had suspected when I met this person, he had given me a mirror. Ugh, I knew it. I knew he was going to teach me something, but it went far deeper than I anticipated. I saw myself in him. I saw myself at my worst, my flaws, my mistakes. And I loved him. I accepted all of him. This was more than I had ever offered myself. I was okay with receiving love from others, but not from myself.
Compassion starts with you. Loving yourself sets you up to recognize when something is not healthy for you, and gives you the self-respect to walk away from things that don't serve you. I learned that there was a huge, wide open space for me to begin loving myself. All of me. The parts I strive to hide behind my yoga persona and my smile. I learned to love the darkness of my past and find my root, the core of my being. I found my truth buried underneath my desire to be desirable, accepted and to prove to others that I am worthy of love. I found my truth underneath all of my positivity; words that sounded motivating and happy but had no backbone.
I am worthy of love, just because I exist. Not because of anything I've done or the way I look. I'm here. I'm human. I am rooted and grounded in my strength, resilience, faith, and the knowledge that no matter what happens, I am safe in my body and I am supported by the ground beneath me. At 31 I am just now learning to love my body and everything in it. I have compassion for the person who has fallen apart time and time again. The person who just can't seem to get their shit together. That was me. But I'm choosing differently now.
I could never fit inside the box I have attempted to mold myself into. I've always known deep down that I belonged among the wildflowers but I still tried to meet the expectations of jobs and people who considered me a novelty. Now that I step into a new season of life, one that I sought out and invited in, I feel authentic. I'm opening the door to adventure, growth and challenge with a strength I never knew I had. The fire that once almost burned me down is safely lit deep inside me, guiding me, calling me to carefully take steps that listen to wisdom as I tread into the unknown. This time I won't let the passion burn me. This time I will love myself.
There is no one who can take the place of self-acceptance. And even if you prove your worth through hard work and accomplishments to other people, you'll never prove it to yourself. Accept yourself. Love yourself. And when you do, you have the freedom to set healthy boundaries. You have the freedom to make better choices for yourself. Choices that may be misunderstood and frowned upon by others. Thankfully, you can rest in the assurance that you know what's best for you, there is no one to impress. Nothing to prove. That is your root, your truth. Sit in it. Rest there and find peace.

Designing the Well-Functioning Kitchen
Every year, we find that kitchens are our most popular remodeling request and that makes sense since most homeowners count it as the most used area in their home. The JMC Home Remodeling Specialists team approaches each kitchen remodel with a critical eye towards functionality and although every family is different, there are six key elements that we consider in developing each design.
- Thoughtful Floor Plan. We take our time to understand the needs of each person who will be using your kitchen. Specific considerations include: placement of appliances, cabinets, fixtures, lighting, and how much counter space is necessary. A well-functioning kitchen will offer good flow into the adjacent rooms in the home and sometimes this involves removing walls or reconfiguring space.
- Workstations. In many families today, more than one person is involved in preparing meals. This has created the need for workstations in the kitchen. Common stations include prep, baking, and clean up that can be utilized independently of one another.
- Storage. Understanding who will use the kitchen and how they plan to use it enables us to maximize the storage options in our design. We will consider optimal cabinet placement and whether doors, drawers, or pullouts will work best. Other storage options could include open shelving, pantries, or islands.
- Island Position. Adding an island to your kitchen design can have many benefits including additional storage, another workstation, or a place to eat and entertain guests. Islands must be placed where they won't impede traffic in or out of the kitchen. A good rule of thumb is to allow 42 inches around all sides.
- Appliance Selection. Don't be lured in by a great looking appliance without making sure that it's the right size and offers the type of functionality that you truly need. We will provide you with guidance on the types and sizes that will work best for your needs.
- Proper Lighting. A well-functioning kitchen must have proper light and that means a layered light plan that includes natural, task, ambient and accent lighting. Windows, sliding doors and skylights are great options for natural light. Pendants over an island can provide task lighting. Under cabinet lights can work for task and accent lighting. Recessed lights or ceiling mounted fixtures work well for ambient light.
Take a look at your own kitchen. Is it functioning well for your family? We invite you to look at our kitchen portfolio to get some ideas and when you are ready to create a custom design for your own home, please contact us.

[Want to be a part of this movement? You can contribute to the 'Join Nana Patekar to Help Farmers' campaign to aid the drought-struck farmers of Marathwada and their families.]
"The soul of India lies in its villages."
-M.K. Gandhi
The news of farmer suicides in India has been splashed across headlines for years, a compounding plea for help for those who make up the backbone of an agrarian country like ours. Over 11% of suicides in India constitute of those by farmers who depend on an erratic monsoon for their livelihoods, are burdened with debt and who struggle continually to feed their families. Over 5, 650 farmer suicides were reported across the country in the past year, with the highest number reported in Maharashtra at a staggering 2, 568 tragic deaths.
Recently, actors Nana Patekar and Makrand Anaspure decided to take matters into their own hands and actually effect change. They visited over 300 families of farmers in districts in the Marathwada and Vidarbha regions, and offered distributed cheques of financial aid personally to the bereaved. A cheque of INR 15, 000 was given to each of the kin, along with a heartfelt plea not to surrender to the dire circumstances.
"All of us want to help, but most of us are not sure if the money we want to give will reach the right people. So, I decided to visit these people myself and help them," he said. He also spoke about how ridiculous it was, that almost 70 years after independence, our government is still not able to provide over 75% of its population, highlighting the lopsided 'development' that India is undergoing.
"We need to take these things seriously. I feel it is time for a revolution. If a farmer can kill himself, tomorrow he can kill you. Look at the level of his frustration. Beware, this situation could become dangerous. Their helplessness could turn into rage, they might turn Naxalites. You are creating that kind of a situation. Just give them electricity and water, which is their basic right. Come on, they provide you bread," Patekar told reporters later.
With his hands-on initiative, Nana Patekar inspired Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar too made a choice to contribute towards the well-being of drought-hit farmers and their families. Organised by Inspector General of Police Vishwas Nangre Patil, financial aid by way of cheques of INR 50, 000 were distributed in the Beed district to 30 widows who has lost their husbands tragically to the agrarian crisis.
"I spoke to Akshay about the drought in Marathwada and the plight of farmers initially during his film premiere," Mr Patil said. "I showed him a video of how actors Nana Patekar and Makrand Anaspure were helping farmers. So that's when he expressed his desire to help but he wanted to do it discreetly and silently."
Akshay Kumar has reportedly earmarked a whopping INR 90 lakh to help over 180 families in the drought-struck region.
It is indeed inspiring to see such prominent personalities from creative fields contributing to important issues affecting our country, and combined with various campaigns on crowdfunding platforms, we hope that we can — through a global, crowd-sourced effort — affect positive change amongst those who are an integral part of our nation.

This site is undergoing major reconstructive surgery.
There's absolutely nothing to see here now except the picture to the left. If you like it, do the right-click thing and steal it–you have my permission (it's my pic, so I can do that.)
This site used to have political and social opinions (mine, of course), reviews of books and online marketing tools.
But I've decided to keep my opinions to myself. You want opinions? There are a million new words posted every day on the internet on any topic you can think of. I figured mine were just filling it with more that probably weren't being read anyway. And since we live in such contentious times, my out-of-the-mainstream opinions could only provide sparks to set off some deranged person's temper tantrum. Better to leave things unsaid. Anyway, whatever I had to say was generally said better by others.
But since you're here, I can't pass up the opportunity to promote a few books I've written. I didn't have much to say in the way of politics and social commentary that hadn't been said before, but you won't find what I've written in my books anywhere else, guaranteed.
The first book is a memoir of my walk from Montserrat (near Barcelona) to Finisterre on the western coast of Spain. The second concerns my journey from Barcelona to Rome. The other two are wildly entertaining crime novels. You can get more information about each at Amazon.com by clicking on the image. Before long there will be another travel memoir about my walk from Almería on the southeastern Spanish coast to Muxía on the northwestern coast. Sometime in 2020 you'll be able to purchase the third installment of A Woman for Five Seasons.

Machine learning algorithms often rely on certain assumptions about the data being mined. Ensuring data meet these assumptions can be a significant portion of the preparation work before model training and predicting begins. When I began my data science journey, I was blissfully unaware of this and thought my preparation was done just because I had stuffed everything into a table. Feeding these naïvely compiled tables into learners I wondered why some algorithms never seemed to perform well for me. As I began digging into the algorithms themselves, many referred to vector space operations as being fundamental to their function. Answering the simple question of "what is a vector space" took me on quite an enlightening journey. Vector spaces are really a neat tool for organizing data and require more than getting all your data into a table. Perhaps most mind-bending is that a vector space can be constructed from anything, even if mortals like myself tend to just use numbers and categorical values.
I believe part of the reason I was late to understanding vector spaces is because vectors are a much easier concept, and the assumption that a vector space is just a pile of vectors (in the same coordinate system) which can be represented as a table was an easy progression. But not every collection of vectors conforms to the rules of a vector space. The rules are what makes vector spaces useful – if you don't conform to the rules, downstream transformations distort the "space" incorrectly. That means the relationships within the vector space will be inconsistent following transformation, and therefore any machine learning algorithm which performs transformations is going to be introducing error into the relationships it is trying to learn.
Let's use an example. Perhaps we have data about countries over time for a few measures, like agricultural yield and precipitation. We can represent this data as vectors defined by using the attributes as the coordinate system (or dimensions). Some sample vectors might be:
Vector 1 –
Country: Atlantis
Year: 2015
Agricultural Yield: 5 tons
Total Precipitation: 100 cm/m2
Vector 2 –
Country: Avalon
Year: 2015
Agricultural Yield: 20 tons
Total Precipitation: 50 cm/m2
These vectors can be easily written as a table (I added two additional vectors for our example):
The danger is assuming that we now have a vector space. This is where the rules of a vector space start to matter. There are a bunch of rules, but I don't think folks dealing with empirical data samples often encounter situations where you need to worry about most of them. The ones you do need to worry about I believe aren't hard to understand with a little "common sense" interpretation. You must be able to add any combination of vectors (any rows in our table) in any order, and the result must "make sense" and be consistent (i.e. changing the order of addition doesn't change the result).
Since I am not dealing with strictly mathematical concepts in my interpreted rules, we should spend some time defining terms. Specifically, what I mean by having a result "make sense." I like to use this phrasing because data science is often as much about perspective and how data is represented as it is about mathematical precision. It turns out that you can have a vector space which follows all the mathematical rules but which doesn't make as much sense as the same data represented in a different way in another vector space. Even though both vector spaces represent the exact same data, machine learning algorithms will usually be more accurate when trained on the space that "makes the best sense." So, what makes sense? Consider the result of adding vectors 1 and 2 from the above table (recall that to add any two vectors just add the values in the same column):
The new vector that is created by the addition of vectors 1 and 2 still lives in the same coordinate system, but gives us a strange result. The addition seems to have predicted the rain and yield in the year 4030 for a strange combined country entity called "Atlantis+Avalon". This doesn't align with my expectation that when adding the yearly production of two countries I should just get their combined production for the year. The result from adding two rows from our current table doesn't make sense, so the table can't be a vector space. Even more telling, if you reverse the order of addition the combined country entity changes, becoming "Avalon+Atlantis", again violating the vector space rules.
There are several methods to get the vector space we need. Looking at the bad result in the previous example, we see that the issue is with the combined country entity and the future year. The Yield and Precipitation columns seem to have combined in an understandable way. So, our task is to represent the Country and Year dimensions of our vectors differently. Let's walk through 4 options that will help with our example.
Option 1: One-hot Encoding
One representation option for the problem columns in our example is called "one-hot encoding," which is a way of taking any enumerated list of values and pivoting the values into dimensions. This means creating a column for every possible value, and using a true/false flag (or 1/0) to represent which value is "active" for a row. Using this method, the prepared table would look like:
And the addition of the first two rows becomes:
This result is mathematically valid, and makes sense… with a little study. We can see that the combined result is from 2 different counties both from 2015. If we reverse the order of the addition the result is the same. So, this is a vector space. Since this still takes a but of study to really interpret, perhaps another representation should be considered to get the highest-performing model. In this case I don't like how this space keep countries and years separate from each other with purely binary on/off values. Without discussing the specifics, this makes it harder for an algorithm to learn about relationships between countries in the same year, or between years for the same country. Keep in mind that one-hot encoding creates lots of dimensions, which can dramatically increase model processing resource requirements (time and/or computation) – the curse of dimensionality.
Option 2: Change Coordinate System
Another option could be using a different coordinate system for some of your data points. In our example, the Year is a good candidate for such a transformation if our analysis is really interested in estimating the production from a period of time. In this case, we may not care about the time period's "name" (i.e. "2015" or "2014), as long as we can predict the correct amount of production from our model for a time period given the other attributes (i.e. "Country" and the other columns from our example). A table with this representation might convert the Year into a duration, and one-hot encode the country:
We no longer know which named year each vector is representing, but we do know the amount of time which is represented by each vector. When we add the first two vectors we now get:
This makes sense, but a machine will still have some trouble sorting out the contribution to production from each country during the time period since there isn't a one-to-one alignment. This issue is mitigated by having lots of year-duration input vectors which, when combined in different groupings, inform the model on individual country contributions to production.
Option 3: Combine Dimensions
Another option could be to combine our columns. For example, the enumerated value columns could have their values distributed to the other columns, creating columns for every combination. Doing this just with Country in our example, and one-hot encoding the Year, this looks like:
This representation is already adding vectors together and mapping multiple vectors from my original table into a single vector in this table. When we add two vectors together from this latest table we get:
This addition makes sense and the order of addition can be reversed (note that the "Vector ID" is not actually part of our data, just a tracking column). What I like about this representation is that the relationships between countries in a given year can now be learned more easily. We still have trouble learning relationships across years since they are one-hot encoded. A downside of this method is that if you keep creating "combination columns" for every combination of interest you wind up with all of your data in very few really long rows, which is useless since you tend to want lots of rows to for an algorithm to train on. The curse of dimensionality rears its ugly head with this method as well.
Option 4: Tensor Representation
Tensors can be thought of as vector spaces of vector spaces (remember how I mentioned a vector space can be made of anything?). Much like folks will mistake any table for a vector space, people often assume that any multi-dimensional matrix or array is a tensor. This is not the case, because vector space rules must be followed. Vector spaces alone are powerful, but tensors really get to a whole new level of power and are needed to study relativity and quantum mechanics. I am glad we have folks like Einstein who could invent such math, because the leap from a vector space to a dual space would never have occurred to me. For those who find math's abstraction beautiful, I recommend watching Pavel Grinfeld's lecture introducing tensors (https://youtu.be/e0eJXttPRZI) and the series of lectures on tensors from "XylyXylyX" (https://youtu.be/_pKxbNyjNe8).
The downside of using tensors is that most machine learning algorithms are designed to handle low-rank tensors. A tensor's rank, or order, is the number of dimensions needed to reference a vector in the tensor. A scalar is a rank-0 tensor, a vector is rank-1, a vector space is rank-2, and beyond this tensors are referred to only by their rank and are considered high-rank tensors. The word "dimension" gets overused in data science, referring to both the number of coordinates in a vector and the number of directions needed to describe a tensor. This is not a big deal because ultimately both concepts refer to an indexing system and can be converted into the other. Squeezing high-rank tensors into low-rank algorithms is a robust area of study, as is the creation of new algorithms to work on high-rank tensors directly.
A tensor representation of our example data can be visually depicted as a collection of tables. This is because a table can only easily show two directions (dimensions) at a time if we don't want to have arrays in each cell. In our example, we have 3 dimensions – Countries, Years, and Measures. If we make our tables "Measures by Years", then we will need to have a table for each country. This looks like:
To validate that we are following vector space rules, we can add two vectors specified by any combination of our 3 dimensions. For example, adding (Country=Atlantis, Year=2015, Measure=Yield) and (Country=Avalon, Year=2015, Measure=Yield) results in 5+20, or 25. Since our dimensions are no longer cells in our table, they don't combine using the same addition that caused our original table problems. However, you might ask where the "Atlantis and Avalon" combination lives in our tensor. The answer is that "Atlantis and Avalon" is an index within our Country dimension, and since the value for that combination doesn't change with the order they are added, vector space rules are maintained. When materialized using the "Measures by Years" table for each country, the way we visualized our tensor previously, this looks like:
Everything makes sense, at least until you try training working with a low-rank machine learning algorithm. Methods for getting this rank-3 tensor into machine learning algorithms that operate on rank-2 tensors are outside the scope of this discussion. This is an area NuWave specializes in, and there are some tremendous benefits to working with tensors including being robust against sparsity and dirty data.
Each of the 4 options discussed help a data scientist get from raw source data to a vector space more compatible with machine learning algorithms, and each has pros and cons. The right method will depend on your data, use case, resources (time, compute, and storage availability), and goals. These methods are not mutually exclusive of each other, and can be combined in different ways. This is why the data scientist needs to be creative and inquisitive – there might be a different way to look at your problem to find a better solution.
Be aware that getting a vector space is not always a requirement (i.e. decision trees can work without them), and that data preparation is rarely finished once you have a vector space (scaling values, normalizing distributions, and many other feature engineering and selection tasks should be considered). Foundations run deep, and relying on a well-built vector space will hold up when we place lots of machine learning machinery on top of it.
