Introducing the Hawk Heritage Giving Society.

The Magnum Meat Injector Complete Kit is for those who want all the tools and accessories needed to inject a piece of meat. If you need to get some extra flavor (or a special kind of flavor) deep into your meat, you will have to go beyond rubs and marinating.

Heart disease?
Gum disease?
Did you know that your oral hygiene can impact your well-being and could cause those four health problems if you don't take good care of your mouth?
By brushing and flossing your teeth on a daily basis is not enough to have healthy teeth and gums. We are going to share with you seven tips to boost your daily dental hygiene routine.
Get enough Fluoride to prevent cavities
Fluoride can help strengthen your teeth, prevent cavities, and reverse early tooth decay according to the American Dental Association. The ADA also states that Fluoride naturally occurs in our water supply. Double check to see if your community supply has fluoride. You can always get more Fluoride from a mouthwash or the dentist can apply some during your visit.
Change your toothbrush every 3-4 months
With the wear of toothbrush usage, your bristles will get worn out and not clean the teeth as well. Research shows that newer toothbrushes can remove more plaque compared to a used one. One last thing to keep in mind, swap out your toothbrushes when you get sick because bacteria grows on the bristles.
Wash your toothbrush holder every few days
A lot of people don't think about cleaning their toothbrush holder, but you should. You know why? It collects all the germs from your bathroom and is the third germiest item that you have in your house according to the National Sanitation Foundation. Wash your toothbrush holder in the dishwasher, with a disinfecting wipe or with hot soapy water every few days.
Eat Tooth-Whitening Foods
This may be a new concept for some of you, but there are some tooth-whitening foods to help keep your teeth extra white. Eat raw, coarse, and fibrous foods such as apples, carrots, celery, pears, and lettuce. These foods can help scrub tooth surfaces and remove accumulated plaque that can cause teeth to yellow.
Switch to a soft bristle toothbrush
Soft-bristled toothbrushes are less abrasive on the teeth and cause less damage to the teeth and gums compared to firmer toothbrushes. Everyone would be okay with a soft bristle toothbrush. It is important when you are brushing your teeth that you start from the back and when you move to the teeth in the front to brush in a circular motion. This will help you get any plaque and bacteria that is near the gum line.
Chew sugar-free gum
Chewing sugar-free gum can help reduce the amount of bacteria in your mouth. It also stimulates the saliva in your mouth to move around which bathes your teeth with calcium and phosphate ions to replenish tooth enamel.
Clean your tongue every day
Most people forget about the tongue. It needs to be maintained too. Reduce your chances of having bad breath and the eliminate the bacterial build up by cleaning your tongue every time you wash your mouth. Do this with a scraper that can be found on some toothbrushes or you can apply some toothpaste on your tongue and scrub it with your everyday toothbrush. You can also run dental floss across your tongue.
By having a daily dental hygiene routine and following these tips will help you have healthy teeth and gums.


text: A statically-nested, variable-mesh option has recently been introduced into the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Community Atmosphere Model's (CAM) Spectral Element (SE) dynamical core that is slated to become the NCAR default in future CAM releases. We present preliminary CAM-SE model simulations using an idealized tropical cyclone test case with a variety of grid sizes and refinement scales. We evaluate the evolution of tropical cyclones initialized at various locations in or near grid scale transition regions. Additionally, we investigate the sensitivity of storm intensity in these areas to variables such as initial vortex strength and radius. Specific focus is centered on factors crucial to storm cyclogenesis and maintenance such as air-sea interaction and vertical development. We also consider potential computational consequences of using such a setup in either process or climate studies..163 on 11-17-2011-->

A reminder to All Associations:
The 2 day course offered August 19th & 20th is the last opportunity for your coaching staff to attend and be certified re: Intro to Competition which is required to coach at the higher levels particularly re: the J.B. – Midget Divisions.
As it was not required under the previous coaching standards those coaches that had taken Intro to Competition prior to its existence are now required to attend the Safe Contact portion of the course (Day 2) and complete the Making Headway portion online.
All other coaches intending to coach from Bantam – Midget are required to attend both days and if they have not done so complete the Making Headway and Making Ethical decisions portion online.
All coaches must complete the Making Headway, Safe Contact, and Making ethical Decisions but only the Head Coach @ J.B. Division is required to take the Intro to Competition (2 day Course).
Important note:
It has come to our attention that:
All coaches "certified" in Safe Contact by their respective Associations Coaches Co-ordinator last year are NOT in fact certified and must attend the Safe Contact portion of Clinic in order to be on the sidelines.
Despite the B.C.C.F.A telling the V.M.F.L. that all Community Coaches training costs would be covered by them, coaches are still being asked to pay for the Making Ethical Decisions on line.
I did ask if the B.C.C.F.A. would be providing a voucher for Associations to use and was told that "after Cory (Cory Philpot) investigated through the BCCFA – there seems to be nothing said or put aside for $ to support the MED online costs. On the football side – once the coaches have finished the 2 hours regarding the skill positions work and evaluation – along with the 3 modules they just completed – they will be able to go one line to complete the MED."
Unfortunately this means that ALL Coaches or Associations will be responsible for the costs of that portion of their training. (As was decided @ our recent Presidents Meeting this would also include all Cheer Coaches as well.)
Thank You,
Gordon Francis
VMFL Head of Coaching

A Personal Memo
Dear Body,
Today I want to acknowledge you for 33 years of faithful service. And I apologize, because I have not always been a compassionate custodian. I have cut, starved, stuffed, stretched, sold, poisoned, criticized, shamed, denied, and otherwise abused you many times. But you, Mother Goddess incarnate, have proved resilient, flexible, strong, intuitive, forgiving, and capable of the most immense Love I have ever witnessed. Thank you for unfolding through me, in spite of my tampering, in deeper understanding of me than I have had for myself. Thank you for showing me the way: one day, one sacred breath at a time.
Unlocking Unlimited Belief
"I'm not acceptable!"
I would never say this about myself out loud, or even think it consciously. But attentive observation of certain feelings and behaviors has provoked me to a rigorous internal inventory. I unearthed this and other appalling belief systems lodged within my emotional body. They were carefully padded by a protective shield, made from a hardened mixture of time and ego.
Here are a few of them.
Limiting Belief: That I'm not worth it. This is a great way to avoid putting in the effort required to make real, sustainable, positive change. It resigns itself to discouragement and defeat, blatantly omitting the simple fact that life operates on a Soular Power platform: this is a dance, a blink of an I/eye, unfolding one experience at a time. We're all here to learn, and there's no way to mess it up.
Healing the Limitation: Realizing that I deserve nourishment and respect, no matter what I feel I've done wrong in the past. In fact, I deserve the best that the world has to offer, because I am doing the best that I can. Just relax and know that every challenge is designed to open my heart and mind. I'm a perpetual work in progress, and worth every step.
Limiting Belief: That I, Gina Tang, have something to accomplish every day. This is an attachment to my personal agenda or sense-of-self that needs to do and prove and secure many things; to get work done, to manage a household, to solve problems, to improve myself, to meet goals, to support others, to earn money, and so on. YES, of course these tasks exist. They are part of living. But the belief that I, "Gina Tang," need to accomplish or conquer them is limiting; it leaves me to my own ideas and plans and devices… which, when driven from internally-applied pressure to perform, are inherently limited.
Healing the Limitation: Realizing that the only thing that I, Gina Tang, need to do is surrender to The Big Hand. Ask IT to guide my daily endeavors. This way, I draw from divine guidance and inspiration, empowering all of the things I do, not for "me," but for the service of my highest self, and the highest benefit to others.
Limiting Belief: That I don't have enough. This sense of lack around my personal resources prevents me from giving freely and joyfully. It says there is not enough time or energy or patience or motivation or money to do and have all the things I want for/from myself, and all the things others want for/from me. It grows anxious and impatient when prevailed upon.
Healing the Limitation: Realizing that I am an infinite instrument in The Big Hand. The Big Hand has a lot to give, and it works through me in perfect time and brilliant orchestration. I am grateful to play my part.

The $3 Billion Plan to Turn Hoover Dam Into a Giant Battery
The New York Times – Hoover Dam helped transform the American West, harnessing the force of the Colorado River — along with millions of cubic feet of concrete and tens of millions of pounds of steel — to power millions of homes and businesses. It was one of the great engineering feats of the 20th century.
Now it is the focus of a distinctly 21st-century challenge: turning the dam into a vast reservoir of excess electricity, fed by the solar farms and wind turbines that represent the power sources of the future.
The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, an original operator of the dam when it was erected in the 1930s, wants to equip it with a $3 billion pipeline and a pump station powered by solar and wind energy. The pump station, downstream, would help regulate the water flow through the dam's generators, sending water back to the top to help manage electricity at times of peak demand.
The net result would be a kind of energy storage — performing much the same function as the giant lithium-ion batteries being developed to absorb and release power.

Villatoro has a 1999 conviction for "tampering with records," for trying to obtain a driver's license illegally and a 1998 DWE (presumably without a diver's license as well).
The Christian right has been vociforous in their opposition to the Obama administration's immigration policies, usually incorrectly referring to them as "amnesty." But it's OK to harbor an illegal immigrant with two felony convictions because he shares your religious beliefs?

A 67-year-old actress has made her West End debut after replacing a lead star in the musical adaptation of Calendar Girls.
Understudy Judith Street took over from Michele Dotrice in the prominent role of Jessie on Friday night after Dotrice was diagnosed with acute bronchitis.
Renamed The Girls, the musical was created by Take That star Gary Barlow and writer Tim Firth, and is based on the true story which inspired the 2003 film.
A group of women decide to appear nude for a Women's Institute calendar to raise funds to buy a settee for their local hospital in memory of one their husbands. To date they have raised almost £5 million for charity.
The musical comedy shows life in the Yorkshire village and the effect the calendar has on their families.
Judith was pictured with her co-stars and some of the original Calendar Girls following her debut.
On the actress's leading role debut, Gary and Tim said: "Having seen Judith in rehearsals, how lucky we are that an actress such as she will be playing the part of Jessie."
The Girls officially opens at London's Phoenix Theatre on Tuesday and runs until April 22.

Experimental: TARA computer-based exercises
TARA is a computerized social cognitive (SC) remediation program consisting of a set of specific SC exercises. The program creates a game-like experience where the participant is encouraged to earn points and in-game rewards to further advance in each 'game'. Participants perform tens to hundred of trials over the course of their session, with each trial providing auditory and visual feedback and rewards to indicate if the trial was performed correctly or incorrectly. After each trial, the difficulty of the next trial is updated to ensure that within each session, the participant gets ~85% of trials correct. Summary screens including game metrics (points, levels) and exercise metrics (usage, progress) are shown to the participant at the end of each session.
Participants in the TARA computer-based exercises arm will complete baseline- assessments, 24 hours of TARA computer based-exercises, and repeat post-assessments.

|Ages Eligible for Study:
|18 Years to 35 Years (Adult)
|Sexes Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Inclusion Criteria:
- The investigators will study outpatient volunteer subjects who have schizophrenia, schizophreniform disorder or schizoaffective disorder and have experienced their first psychotic episode within the past 5 years, who are clinically stable, and who are between the ages of 18 and 35 years. Approximately 35-40% of the subjects recruited will be female, approximately 50-60% of potential subjects will be Euro-American, 10-20% will be Asian-American, 15-20% Latino, 15-20% African-American. The subject sample will reflect the racial and ethnic diversity of Northern California and the prevalence of schizophrenia across gender in this age period.
- The investigators will study volunteer subjects at high risk for psychosis who are clinically stable, and who are between the ages of 12-35. Approximately 35-40% of the subjects recruited will be female, approximately 50-60% of potential subjects will be Euro-American, 10-20% will be Asian-American, 15-20% Latino, 15-20% African-American. Our subject sample will reflect the racial and ethnic diversity of the San Francisco Bay Area.
- The study will have volunteer healthy controls matched by age and gender to our subjects at high risk for psychosis.
- The study subjects will not have their medications changed by the study researchers. If a subject's personal doctor changes a medication, the change will simply be documented by the study researchers.
- Investigators will recruit subjects with a clinical diagnosis of schizophrenia, schizophreniform or schizoaffective disorder with first psychotic episode within the last 5 years, good general physical health; age between 12 and 35 years; Is fluent and proficient in the English language; no neurological disorder. In addition, all subjects must have achieved clinical stability, defined as outpatient status for at least 3 months prior to study participation, plus stable doses of psychiatric medications for at least one month prior to study participation using the following operationalized definition: stable low to moderate dose of antipsychotic medication (<1000 mg. chlorpromazine equivalents) for at least 4 weeks prior to study, plus stable doses of all other psychotropic medications (anticholinergics, benzodiazepines) for at least 4 weeks prior to entry. However, subjects are not required to be on medications during participation. Minors must have parental/legal guardian consent to participate. Although investigators request that a family member also participate in the clinical assessments, this is not required for a participant to be eligible.
This study will also recruit subjects who meet criteria for a Prodromal Syndrome as defined on the SIPS:
- Attenuated Positive Prodromal Syndrome: Ideas of reference, odd beliefs or magical thinking, paranoid ideation, odd thinking and speech, odd behavior and appearance that are at a prodromal level of intensity that is rated at the level of 3-5 on the Scale of Prodromal Symptoms (SOPS). Symptoms must occur at an average frequency of at least once per week in the past month.
- Brief Intermittent Psychotic Syndrome: Positive symptoms rated at psychotic intensity as a score of 6 on the SOPS that are not disorganizing or dangerous, do not last more than 1 hour per day at an average frequency of four days per week over one month, and have begun in the past three months, currently present at least several minutes a day at a frequency of at least once per month.
- Genetic Risk and Deterioration Syndrome: Schizotypal personality disorder OR first degree relative with a DSM-IV psychotic disorder, PLUS significant decrease in functioning defined as 30% or greater drop in GAF score during the last month compared to 12 months ago.
- High Risk Syndromes: Individuals who experience subthreshold psychotic symptoms without restrictions on frequency of onset, functional impairment, or family history of psychosis.
- Investigators will recruit age and gender matched healthy comparison subjects who do not meet criteria for any Axis I diagnosis on the SCID. They cannot meet prodromal criteria on the Prodromal Questionnaire administered during the screening.
- All subjects must be in good general physical health; Fluent and proficient in the English language.
- Minors must have parental/legal guardian consent to participate. Although investigators request that a family member also participate in the clinical assessments, this is not required for a proband to be eligible.
- Individuals with a diagnosis of schizophrenia do not need to be within the 5 years of onset, as that might have passed while in the first part of the study. Also, they must be at least 18 years of age due to the developmental considerations for the social cognition software of someone who is under the age of 18. The 16 healthy controls also run in this part of the study will be age and gender matched to the individuals with a diagnosis of schizophrenia.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Recent Onset Schizophrenia Subjects: Investigators will exclude subjects with a history of psychoactive substance abuse in past 6 months determined by DSM-IV criteria from the SCID interview.
- Prodromal Subjects: Psychotic disorder previously diagnosed as schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder or psychotic syndrome as defined by the SIPS: Fully psychotic symptoms have occurred at least one hour per day at a minimum average frequency of 4 days per week over one month OR the psychotic symptom is seriously disorganizing or dangerous.
- Healthy Control Subjects: Criteria is met for any Axis I diagnosis on the SCID. Healthy controls cannot have any first or second degree relative with a diagnosis of schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or bipolar disorder. Any previous psychiatric hospitalizations will exclude a healthy control from the study.
- Any subject presenting a significant danger to self or others who requires inpatient treatment will be referred for that treatment and evaluated for study eligibility only after acute care treatment is no longer necessary.
- Subjects will also be excluded if they have a neurological disorder, or mental retardation (IQ < 70 previously documented, or by intellectual testing, if necessary), or autism.
- Physical disability that prohibits testing (deafness or blindness).
- Subjects will be excluded if they currently meet DSM-IV criteria for alcohol/substance dependence or has met criteria within the last 6 months OR prodromal symptoms are present only during use and withdrawal from alcohol/substances OR subject is unable to attend assessments sober.

Pedagogies for the Visual in Innovative Learning
This book discusses through a variety of disciplinary contexts and lenses, the importance of using visuals to actively engage learners in the virtual learning and face-to-face (f2f) environment. It presents educators' reflections on their teaching and student learning from both a theoretical as well as a practical perspective. It discusses recent research into learning styles and emerging technologies, which have moved towards the need for providing in higher education a more innovative, personalised online learning space. The importance of providing a scaffold online learner support system will be outlined, alongside the practical examples of how this can be achieved. The use of colour coding, iconography, video sharing and digital mind maps in elearning are discussed, as well as the use of sign posting, worked examples and multiple entry points and other visual learning methods to direct learning are explained. Specific references will be made as to how these tools can be used to promote students to be more collaborative as well as self-directed in their learning, while having the opportunity to both contextualise their understanding and to promote knowledge transfer. Case studies will be presented on how educators have innovatively used technology to visually represent the learning process and to insight further understanding of the materials to be learnt, with the emphasis on 'the visual' as a method of encapsulating the knowledge to be learnt and as the instigator to insight curiosity and creative thinking in the 21st century learner.

This one popped up on one of the Facebook groups a while ago.
New to the game and suck at painting. Any tips for a beginner?
Why do you suck at painting?
Because you're beginning.
This is a new hobby. You've not done it before. I am not specifically targeting the person in the post, it's just the first one that I could find.
I want to use this example to remind us all that we were beginners. And, like anything, being a beginner is hard. Because it's supposed to be! Because you don't wake up and decide today you're going to be a plumber. Because it takes time and study and practice to be able to master any skill. Because there are a million tricks learnt through hard trials and experience.
Really, the above is true. All it takes is one painted miniature to build an army. Finish one miniature and then repeat it until you have an army.
You'll be surprised at the tricks you pick up if you paint the same colour scheme over your whole army. It will be boring and monotonous, but if you have a paint scheme worked out, you can focus on things like getting paint consistency right, brush control and the myriad of little things that will make each miniature better than the last.
I remember the first ever miniatures I painted. They were a Dungeons and Dragons Adventurers pack with a samurai, a barbarian, a halfling and a thief.
I begged and pleaded to get some Humbrol enamel paints and proceeded to paint them. At the time, I had no idea about the miracle of acrylic paints.
You can imagine how they turned out. In fact, they make the example above look like a Monet landscape!
What advice do I offer our aspiring miniature painter?
Learn the basics. Be prepared to suck. Don't give up and keep practising.
Which is easier said than done.
Getting online and putting your work out in the public domain can be really demoralising, especially with your first efforts. You'll find that sometimes the comments and advice are less than helpful.
In our example, the comments range from "thin your paints" to "watch Warhammer TV". All are good advice but don't address the problem in a helpful way. By reading through the comments, we find out
I'm using cheapy walmart applebarrel paint. Does the gw paint work better or does it matter?
and the advice to thin paints and use washes and watch YouTube continues.
Surely the problem, in this case, has nothing to do with thinning paints and watching YouTube? Instead, my advice is: take a look at the tools you are using.
Does the GW paint work better?
In this case, yes, it does. The brand (or type) of paint has a significant impact on the finished result.
As a new hobbyist, you won't have the encyclopaedic knowledge of different paint manufacturers and their drawbacks and benefits. A seasoned hobby veteran would have, though. It should be the seasoned veterans to guide you seeking knowledge to the right path.
Beyond "thinning your paint", "using washes" and "watching YouTube" my advice would be get started with the basic tools of your new hobby and go from there.
Games Workshop, Privateer Press, Vallejo, Warcolours and others produce some amazing acrylic paints for painting miniatures. Check them out, especially Warcolours.
Wargaming is a multi-faceted hobby. Playing games and painting miniatures are both parts. And both parts require time and practice to master, just like anything else you'll do.
If you'd like some more advice, check out Thor's tips on becoming a better painter. Also, don't forget to check out his article on common painting mistakes and how to avoid them.
6 Join the Discussion!
That's why I ask questions when someone asks for advice. There's no sense explaining step #5 when someone hasn't even reached step #1, or even when it's the opposite and the person is quick to learn and beyond your advice already.
Yep. Paying attention to what the person is actually saying and figuring out where their trouble is coming from is key to being able to give good advice.
I would also agree that using paints intended for minis helps quite a bit. It's possible to get good results from generic craft paints, but it's more difficult and more work. I'd also add Army Painter to the list there. They do good stuff from what I've used of their line.
Army Painter's older paints were excellent, but their newer line (paint name inside a hex on the label) has a thicker, more "gel"-like consistency. Not nearly as good as it used to be. Luke APS had a good video on mixing up a medium to make it more friendly and I have an electric shaker, so it's okay for me, but again, unfortunately not a line I'd recommend to beginners anymore.
Good to know. I only have some old ones and the shades.
Generally good advice, and Warcolours paints aren't bad by any means, but I certainly would not recommend them for a beginner.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Reverse Mortgages
Getting a reverse mortgage is one option for seniors looking for financial stability during retirement. Applicants interested in obtaining this type of mortgage could greatly benefit by doing so. But that doesn't mean there aren't any drawbacks to consider as well. Everyone's situation is different, so what is a good financial decision for one person may not be for another. Take some time to examine both the advantages and the disadvantages of a reverse mortgage before you decide if it's right for you.
Reverse mortgages, also known as home equity conversion mortgages (HECM), appeal to homeowners for a number of reasons. For example, because they are federally-insured through a Federal Housing Administration-approved lender, borrowers have more protection than if they took out unregulated loans.
Reverse mortgages allow borrowers to receive an increased (and tax-free) income without giving up their ownership in the home or making monthly payments to their mortgage lender. However, they would still need to pay other bills, such as homeowner's insurance and property taxes. But they do not have to make any payments to the lender unless something changes in their arrangement and they no longer meet the reverse mortgage requirements. Kiplinger, a business and personal finance publisher based in Washington D.C., also notes that what borrowers receive does not impact what they pay for Medicare or their ability to qualify for Medicaid.
With reverse mortgages, borrowers have more financial freedom. They can use the capital they receive to enjoy their retirement or pay other expenses, like medical bills. Some may even choose to put that money back into their homes in order to increase the value or finally update their kitchen or outdoor space, for example. People can even use a reverse mortgage to help buy a new home if they are looking to move.
If the borrower passes away, his or her spouse can remain in the home under the Mortgagee Optional Election Assignment Program. The policy gives "lenders the option to delay calling HECMs with eligible 'non-borrowing spouses' due and payable," as reported by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. There are certain prerequisites that seniors must meet in order to be eligible, including the time in which the reverse mortgage was assigned (before August 4, 2014).
Further, those who inherit the home after a borrower passes away can decide either to keep the property and reimburse the lender or sell the property and put that capital toward repaying the loan. If they choose the latter, the borrower's family would not need to pay out-of-pocket, even if what's owed to the lender is more than what the home sells for.
Even though it sounds like anyone 62 years of age or older can qualify for this type of mortgage loan, that isn't necessarily the case. Before they approve a reverse mortgage, lenders want to know that the borrower can afford to pay the homeowner's insurance and property taxes for years to come. Prospective borrowers must provide their income information, such as tax returns and paystubs, which could hurt some people's chances of getting the loan.
Plus, only certain types of properties can be approved. Primary residencies, yes. Vacation homes, no. In fact, a recent study featured in Reverse Mortgage magazine, a publication by the National Reverse Mortgage Lenders Association, reveals that 22 percent of participants did not get a reverse mortgage due to "property ineligibility."
Another drawback to getting a reverse mortgage is that it often has higher interest rates than regular mortgages and other refinancing options. This difference can be significant when the mortgage payment is due. As pointed out by U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, people who get a reverse mortgage will owe more money than people who get a traditional mortgage and their home equity depreciates as times goes on.
As explained above, inheritors of the home have to repay the lender with their own money if they want to keep it, and they may be unable to afford that expense. Although they do have the option of selling, those who have a sentimental attachment to the property may find it difficult to let it go. Consequently, if they do sell the home, they likely won't see any of equity from the sale, as it will be used to cover the reverse mortgage costs.
Again, what is going to influence your decision to get a reverse mortgage is your own financial circumstances. You should do as much research as you can and consult with mortgage loan professionals for their expert opinions before you decide whether a reverse mortgage is right for you.
Reverse mortgages are means of borrowing money against the values of homes. If you are a homeowner then you can essentially use this type of loan to convert part of your home equity into spendable cash without having to pay the money back until you pass away or choose to leave your home. That can come in handy when you need to pay medical expenses, make expensive repairs to your property, or take care of any other financial obligations that you may find it difficult to meet on your fixed income during retirement. Basically a reverse mortgage loan option can give you more financial flexibility, as long as you don't plan to move out of your home in the near future.

Across the Bedford Basin from its twin Dartmouth, Halifax is on a natural harbour so large it is bested only by that of Sydney, Australia. North America's oldest yacht club can be found along the 16km (10mi.) shore of Halifax Harbour. Crossing the harbour can be done by way one of the two toll bridges, and a trip to Dartmouth is easy via the ferry connecting the two cities.
Founded by the British in 1749, a move made in hopes of strengthening their North Atlantic presence, Halifax still shows traces of Britain's military influence. The waterfront is lined with beautiful stone and wood buildings that hold historical significance. Attracting tourist and locals alike, the waterfront is a great place to go do a bit of shopping, enjoy the vibrant nightlife or have pleasant meal.
An enjoyable stroll can be had along one of the many walking paths, through various parks or along the beaches. Hang around the Citadel at noon and witness the ceremonial preparation and firing of the noon gun then visit the Shubenacadie Canal and watch the workings of the lock.

Our company was established in 2002 in Agia Paraskevi, where we opened our first clothing and accessories' "brick" store. However, we are present in the trading and jewelry-manufacturing field since 1991, when we started our first shop. In 2011, we created www.neraidochora.gr, which, although it was not an e-shop, "creeped" in the hearts of several friends and customers and became a cornerstone as a different presence in the web, where aesthetic coexists with functionality and simplicity.
Little by little, we gained valuable experience, especially conserning safe and quick shipping. The small percentage of returns, the excellent communication with our customers and their positive impressions when they received the products, gave us the power and know-how to take one more step. Thereby, we created miamossa.com, an e-shop, in order to combine automated processes with the personal approach that we have as a guide all these years.
The one thing however that is here to stay, is your complete and secure service, which is guaranteed by our long-term experience and presence in the field of commerce as well as in the internet.

Why Will-Power Can NEVER Change Your On-Camera Fear
You are about to learn some stuff you've never heard anywhere before!
Let's start with some facts. Fear is an emotion because it's how we feel about something and Will-power is comes from the logical part of our brain.
I'm glad we've cleared that up! haha!
Here is the concept you need to understand!
Your emotions and your logical thinking speak two very different languages! Yes you've read that correctly!
Let me explain!
Your logical mind, the part of your brain that you think with, uses the language you speak. I am a native English speaker and I think in English. This is the logical part of my brain, this is the part of my brain I use to think to myself.
But the emotional part of my brain? Well that part doesn't speak English, it speaks another language.
And that language the emotional part of my brain thinks with… is through my 5 senses. Yes you've read that correctly too!
Let's put that to the test!
If I ask you to logically deduce 10 minus 3, you will do that calculation in your mind while thinking to yourself. Obviously, that'll be your logical brain at work.
But if I ask you to think about the person you care the most, how does that memory of that person floods into your awareness?
Perhaps the first thing you recall is a sound of that person saying your name?
Or, a vision of their smile?
Or, the click here smell of their perfume?
Maybe, you remember the touch of their hands touching yours?
Or, maybe, just maybe you remember a taste?
Our emotions run on our Five Senses! That's it's language! And our logic/rational brain speaks the language that we think in!
This is WHY it's impossible to change how we feel by using WILL-POWER
WILL-POWER is in the rational part of our brain which does NOT speak the same language as our emotions! Thus, There is a language barrier between our logical mind and our emotional mind!
Let's Now PUT THAT Theory to the test!
Have you ever tried to convince yourself (logically) why you shouldn't love someone? Did it ever work?
EXACTLY! Of course it has never worked! And it will NEVER work!
This is WHY when you feel fear, nervousness and anxiety when you're on-camera or when you think about going on-camera, and you try your BEST to logically convince yourself that you shouldn't feel these irrational feelings and it doesn't work.
And now you ALSO KNOW WHY it's hard to get over a heartbreak no matter how many logically points your closest friends preach to you on bar-hoping Friday night!

If you read my previous blog post on competing in the API economy, you probably have a feel for just how important APIs are in modern organisations. Implementing an API strategy will unlock internal assets and make you a competitive and relevant force to be reckoned with in our diverse and fast-changing tech landscape.
How to design the perfect API (API series, part 2)
Competing in the API economy (API series, part 1)
You're probably all too familiar with terms like 'digital transformation' or 'digital disruption'. There are endless concepts and trends behind these fancy words but you could say that they are 'a new way of developing, deploying and maintaining software'.
The vendors are changing how software products are made, and more importantly, they're changing how software is sold; there are new architectural styles (Reactive Manifesto and 12 Factor Applications, for example), and there are lots of new technologies in the mix: Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial intelligence (AI), Big Data, Responsive Web Apps, API Management, to name just a few.

Now that I've had a few days to take a look around at all of the new functionality, I'm rounding up my highlights below.

Treasury Minister Is Incorrect About Cash
Friday 27th April 2018
In today's Daily Telegraph there is a report that the Treasury Secretary, Robert Jenrick says the future of cash is safe. He claims though the use of cash is declining, it is vital for vulnerable people and those living in rural areas.
In fact, the opposite it is true. Banks are closing in rural areas and there are fewer ATMs because we now have many new, secure payment systems to suit everyone including disadvantaged people.
Cash is the currency of tax cheats and crime. Vulnerable people are very often the victims of crime.
A cashless UK will see a huge boost in the economy with more people paying tax as opposed to evading tax by the illicit use of cash. There will be a huge decrease in crime in a cashless society and the UK will be at least £20 billion a year better off without cash in our lives. This means our essential public services could have additional funding which will help vulnerable people.
Cash is no longer sustainable and no longer needed. A cashless UK will be a better and fairer society with far less crime and dramatically more people paying their fair share of tax.
