Project Description
Tulsa Police Officer's Memorial
Since 1917, the Tulsa Police Department has suffered the loss of 39 police officers who were killed in the line of duty. Every new police officer takes an oath of office which contains the following statement: "I will protect the Rights, Lives, and Property of all citizens and uphold the honor of the Police Profession, with my life, if need be." These 39 officers gave the ultimate sacrifice for the citizens of Tulsa.
In September 1996, a small group of individuals who shared a common dream came together to form the Tulsa Police Officers' Memorial Committee. This group consists of police officers, retired officers, officers' families, and police chaplains. Their dream is to build an everlasting memorial to honor Tulsa police officers who were killed in the line of duty; to create a place where police officers, family members of fallen officers, and citizens can come to honor those officers who bravely gave their lives in the line of duty.
The original proposed Memorial Park would feature a Wall of Memory, which would list the fallen officers' names in granite. There would also be bronze reliefs depicting different units within the Police Department. In front of the wall would be a statue of a Tulsa police officer handing a folded flag to the child of a fallen officer, as well as a replica of the Tulsa Police badge set in granite or tile. Encircling that would be a Walk of Honor, a tree lined sidewalk with a walkway leading to each tree. A brick engraved with the officer's name would be set into each pathway, and the trees will shade a park bench and a plaque displaying information about each officer.
The final plan changed partly due to the layout of the property. The original concept stayed the same – a statue of a Tulsa Police Officer handing a folded flag to a child as the focal point. Behind the statue is a wall that has our Oath of Office highlighting the last line "…With My Life if Need Be." There is also a Walk of Honor where each officer has a station with a remembrance plaque and a bench.
in the Line of Duty
Law enforcement officers are never 'off duty.' They are dedicated public servants who are sworn to protect public safety at any time and place that the peace is threatened. They need all the help that they can get.

While Palisades residents love their annual July 4 parade and the throngs of local politicians and would-be politicians it brings to their leafy Ward 3 neighborhood, they might be already regretting it.
And they certainly will by Tuesday or Wednesday when sustained high temperatures near the century mark will make all the horse excrement plopped on the hot asphalt stink to high heaven.
After leaving the post-parade festivities at Palisades Park, complete with free hot dogs and moon bounce, City Desk surveyed the remains of the parade along its MacArthur Boulevard route. Parts of it were quite malodorous. But it wasn't necessarily trashed like last month's Capital Pride Parade.
Political coverage from NBC4.
All the candy that Ward 2 Councilmember Jack Evans and his supporters showered on parade goers seemed to be snapped up. The children of Ward 3 certainly love their sugary treats! City Desk wonders if Ward 3 Councilmember Mary Cheh, fresh off her legislative victory to mandate healthy school lunches, will soon start a push for a Healthy Parades Act. Will someone not think of the children and their dental health?
Cheh, meanwhile, had her supporters pass out miniature copies of the U.S. Constitution, not particularly exciting as a freebie but quite fitting for a George Washington University professor specializing in constitutional law.
Some savvy politicians targeted parade-goers with implements to beat the heat. The campaign of D.C. Council Chairman Vincent Gray, who is challenging Mayor Adrian Fenty in the September Democratic primary, passed out miniature fans. Team Fenty, meanwhile distributed water bottles and green towels, to which DCist's Martin Austermuhle remarked via Twitter: "Not very soft, like the candidate!" (When City Desk touched a Fenty towel, it was indeed quite abrasive -- a mix between sandpaper, chamois and ratty gym towel. Did Hizzoner not test the hand-out on his bald head prior to distribution?)
Fenty and Gray "[b]oth did a good job keeping people cool," said Nate Bennett-Fleming, who is running for D.C. shadow representative and passed out around 1,000 Nate-branded bottles of water.
Campaigning has never been an especially environmentally friendly activity, with all the signs, stickers, Mardi Gras beads, pamphlets and the like that generally have a short life span before being trashed.
One resident of MacArthur Boulevard, hosting a July 4 parade-watching party on her front lawn, told City Desk that she wished Mayor Fenty's Green Team would've been more green with his parade freebies.
"I support him on school reform. But these water bottles -- look, they're everywhere!" The woman, who said she would be voting for Fenty, didn't want to disclose her name. "I know not to criticize the mayor. He rides his bike up here."
The mayor, to his credit, did have his trusty Smart car at the parade, which was dwarfed by the monster truck At-Large Councilmember Kwame Brown, who is running for D.C. Council chairman, had at the parade. City Desk was concerned that the gigantic vehicle would not be able to navigate some of the tight turns of the parade route, especially at Edmunds Place and Sherier Place where regular traffic jams developed as the parade snaked its way into Palisades Park.
The campaigns of Gray and former Ward 5 Councilmember Vincent Orange, who is running for D.C. Council chairman, did the best job at preemptively claiming all the good sign space along MacArthur Boulevard. Four years ago, Fenty's mayoral campaign had the best ground game. This time, Gray bested the incumbent and had an excellent post-parade sign collection operation. Two hours after the parade started, you would have had difficulty knowing that Gray was even at the event. (We pity the sign-carrying Gray campaign supporter that City Desk spotted walking all the way to his car parked out in front of the German Chancery on Reservoir Road, but not as much as the overheated Bolivian dancers who were weighted down by pounds of colorful costumes!)
Perhaps City Desk missed him, but we were hoping that Orange would be cruising MacArthur Boulevard on a Segway passing out candy and beads, just like he did during his ill-fated mayoral run four years ago. There were reports, however, that Orange was busy stumping for votes at an ice cream truck. Orange, known for his larger-than-life personality, seemed to be no match for Brown's behemoth truck, which was a regular topic of conversation at the parade. (Orange, to his credit, had an aggressive signature-gathering operation.)
"This is the Washington, D.C., parade," said Patrick Mara, the school board candidate from Ward 1 who is better known for knocking off longtime At-Large Councilmember Carol Schwartz during the 2008 Republican primary, therefore depriving Palisades parade-goers of seeing Schwartz in her eye-popping yellow TransAm convertible. Even if Ward 3 voters -- who form the core of the Palisades parade turnout -- can't vote in your race, "you need to have a good showing here," said Mara, who had 20 supporters working the parade and post-parade party. "It says something about the strength of someone's candidacy."
In that case, City Desk nominates the "Millwood Mob" for something, but we aren't sure what. Millwood Lane NW, a short street connecting Loughboro and Glenbrook roads, year after year fields a very organized showing at the parade, complete with its own queen. Imagine if the Millwood Mob would form its own political party! Watch out Mary Cheh!
Because of the hot weather, At-Large candidate Clark Ray may have been the wisest person at the parade wearing a white sleeveless shirt, though this writer's recently deceased great aunt, a feisty, opinionated longtime Palisades resident, would have likely scoffed at any politician displaying bare shoulders.
But Team Ray was out in full force and was warmly received by the crowd, along with incumbent Phil Mendelson.
The one person who was missing was Don Peebles, the big-time developer and would-be mayoral candidate who kept political watchers on edge for months as he weighed a challenge to Fenty. (Through artfully crafted language, he decided not to run.) City Desk thinks Peebles should have teamed up with Matthew Lesko and his question-mark mobile -- a perfect way to continue to toy with the populous!

Parkinson's Disease (PD) – Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Treatment Options
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects the movement of a person. The condition mostly affects the nerve cells/neurons that produce "dopamine" in an area of the brain called the "substantia nigra". Symptoms develop gradually and get worse over years. The progression of symptoms is different from one person to another and in most cases begins with a slight tremor in just one hand. It also causes stiffness/inflexibility of muscles or the slowing of movement. Effective treatment for Parkinson's disease offered by leading pain management centers in Brooklyn, NYC helps relieve pain symptoms and improve the quality of life.
Reports from MedicalNewsToday.com suggest that approximately one million adults in the United States are diagnosed with Parkinson's disease; with over 60,000 people diagnosed annually. Even though both men and women can have PD, the disease affects about 50 percent more men than women. The exact cause of PD is unknown. However, a combination of both genetic and environmental factors may play an active role.
Signs and Symptoms
The signs and symptoms of this progressive disorder may vary from one person to another. Early signs may be mild and may often go unnoticed. Often, these symptoms begin on one side of your body and usually remain worse on that side, even after symptoms begin to affect both sides. These symptoms are classified as primary, secondary and general.
Primary symptoms
- Bradykinesia (slowness of movement, slowed motion)
- Resting tremor (shaking)
- Postural instability (impaired balance and coordination)
- Muscle stiffness
Secondary symptoms
- Speech problems
- Sexual dysfunction
- Loss of facial expression
- Fatigue
- Cramping
- A tendency to stoop, to lean forward
- Swallowing difficulties (dysphagia)
- Involuntary movements and prolonged muscle contractions (dystonia)
General symptoms
- Dementia
- Sleep problems
- Depression
- Urinary incontinence (bladder weakness)
- Reduced sense of smell
- Reduced sensation of pain
- Constipation
- Light-headedness or dizziness when standing (orthostatic hypotension)
Typically, this condition develops among people after the age of 60 years. The associated risk factors include – age, heredity, toxic exposure and sex.
Diagnosis and Treatment of PD
There is no specific test for Parkinson's disease. Diagnosis is made by a special team of physicians comprising neurologists, physical therapists, pain management experts, speech therapists, neuropsychologists and rehabilitation experts. Initial diagnosis will be performed after a review of patient symptoms along with a detailed neurological and physical examination. In addition, several advanced imaging tests such as MRI scan, ultrasound of the brain, SPECT and PET scans and blood tests will be conducted to analyze symptoms and rule out other disorders. Treatment methods include –
- Medications – Medications help reduce problems related to movement, tremor and muscle rigidity. In addition, these medications will increase the level of dopamine in the brain. Medications prescribed by physicians include – Carbidopa-levodopa, MAO-B inhibitors, Dopamine agonists, Amantadine and Anticholinergics.
- Physical therapy – Physical therapy helps maintain mobility, function and strength. These programs include exercises that reduce muscle stiffness and joint pain through movement. Therapeutic exercise programs that focus on stretching and strengthening can help PD patients improve balance problems, gait, fatigue and pain.
- Speech therapy – Most patients suffering from Parkinson's experience symptoms like slurred speech and poor body language. A speech-language pathologist may help improve language and speech problems.
- Occupational therapy – This treatment modality can help people with Parkinson's disease stay active in performing their daily tasks effectively as the disease progresses. These therapists provide assessment and treatment in areas such as mobility, fall prevention and self-care routines.
Surgical procedures such as deep brain stimulations may be recommended only as a last resort in cases of severe PD.
Incorporating positive lifestyle changes is important when it comes to managing the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Regular physical exercise and healthy eating is important to maintain or improve muscle strength, balance and flexibility. It also helps to prevent depression and anxiety symptoms associated with this neurodegenerative disorder.

Barack Obama is the perfectly poised POTUS. I watched him deliver his speech to the Muslim world, right on queue, right on message, right as I would have written it. And needless to say, I loved it. Regardless of his positions on the economy, healthcare, small business and bailouts, whether left or right of center, you have to admit, the man is one incredible communicator.
He hit hot button topics, one after the next, speaking to an audience whose political and religious positions may be polar opposite of the western world, yet he managed to respectfully lay out both sides of the issues, recognize our differences and then, as a good architect of word and thought, reel it back in to point out that our similarities as human beings are far greater.
Kudos to POTUS. We need this talk, over and over and over again. If the great spiritual leaders of the world have still yet to instill the message to humankind, then perhaps, maybe a unique president with an African, Muslim, Caucasian, Christian and economically challenged history can. I certainly wish him luck. I'm tired of division; didn't even like it much in school.

The Bacterial Flagellum
Design of the Human Eye
The Irreducible Structure
of the "Primitive" Eye
The Chemistry of Sight
Lobster Eye
The Design in the Ear
The Inner Ear
The Origin of the Ear According
to Evolutionists
The Reproduction of Rheobatrachus
Silus Conclusion
It will be seen that all we have examined so
far consists of the vibrations in the outer and middle ear.
The vibrations are constantly passed forward, but so far there
is still nothing apart from a mechanical motion. In other
words, there is as yet no sound.
The process whereby these mechanical motions
begin to be turned into sound begins in the area known as
the inner ear. In the inner ear is a spiral-shaped organ filled
with a liquid. This organ is called the cochlea.
The last part of the middle ear is the stirrup
bone, which is linked to the cochlea by a membrane. The mechanical
vibrations in the middle ear are sent on to the liquid in
the inner ear by this connection.
The vibrations which reach the liquid in the
inner ear set up wave effects in the liquid. The inner walls
of the cochlea are lined with small hair-like structures,
called stereocilia, which are affected by this wave effect.
These tiny hairs move strictly in accordance with the motion
of the liquid. If a loud noise is emitted, then more hairs
bend in a more powerful way. Every different frequency in
the outside world sets up different effects in the hairs.
But what is the meaning of this movement of the
hairs? What can the movement of the tiny hairs in the cochlea
in the inner ear have to do with listening to a concert of
classical music, recognizing a friend's voice, hearing the
sound of a car, or distinguishing the millions of other kinds
of sounds?
The answer is most interesting, and once more
reveals the complexity of the design in the ear. Each of the
tiny hairs covering the inner walls of the cochlea is actually
a mechanism which lies on top of 16,000 hair cells. When these
hairs sense a vibration, they move and push each other, just
like dominos. This motion opens channels in the membranes
of the cells lying beneath the hairs. And this allows the
inflow of ions into the cells. When the hairs move in the
opposite direction, these channels close again. Thus, this
constant motion of the hairs causes constant changes in the
chemical balance within the underlying cells, which in turn
enables them to produce electrical signals. These electrical
signals are forwarded to the brain by nerves, and the brain
then processes them, turning them into sound.
Science has not been able to explain all the
technical details of this system. While producing these electrical
signals, the cells in the inner ear also manage to transmit
the frequencies, strengths, and rhythms coming from the outside.
This is such a complicated process that science has so far
been unable to determine whether the frequency-distinguishing
system takes place in the inner ear or in the brain.
At this point, there is an
interesting fact we have to consider concerning the motion
of the tiny hairs on the cells of the inner ear. Earlier,
we said that the hairs waved back and forth, pushing each
other like dominos. But usually the motion of these tiny hairs
is very small. Research has shown that a hair motion of just
by the width of an atom can be enough to set off the reaction
in the cell. Experts who have studied the matter give a very
interesting example to describe this sensitivity of these
hairs: If we imagine a hair as being as tall as the Eiffel
Tower, the effect on the cell attached to it begins with a
motion equivalent to just 3 centimeters of the top of the
Just as interesting is the question of how often
these tiny hairs can move in a second. This changes according
to the frequency of the sound. As the frequency gets higher,
the number of times these tiny hairs can move reaches unbelievable
levels: for instance, a sound of a frequency of 20,000 causes
these tiny hairs to move 20,000 times a second.
Everything we have examined so far has shown
us that the ear possesses an extraordinary design. On
closer examination, it becomes evident that this design is
irreducibly complex, since, in order for hearing
to happen, it is necessary for all the component parts of
the auditory system to be present and in complete working
order. Take away any one of these-for instance, the hammer
bone in the middle ear-or damage its structure, and you will
no longer be able to hear anything. In order for you to hear,
such different elements as the ear drum, the hammer, anvil
and stirrup bones, the inner ear membrane, the cochlea, the
liquid inside the cochlea, the tiny hairs that transmit the
vibrations from the liquid to the underlying sensory cells,
the latter cells themselves, the nerve network running from
them to the brain, and the hearing center in the brain must
all exist in complete working order. The system cannot develop
"by stages," because the intermediate stages would serve no

In the cooling light of morning, I swept the yeast from the corners of my eyes. I put on wheat, cooked the toast that is, spread the crisp with orange jelly. Spoons spilled out of the drawer. Although I had no plans for the morning or the afternoon, I didn't want to pick them up and wash them one-by-one. I did, though. A task like that can gnaw at you if you don't do it. I picked up her book after that and fell asleep.
Domes accrued. One arch was constructed above my head. A trowel could have dropped and knocked me further into sleep. Further, where the buildings were not only mine, but were built where I told them to be. Oh, why so many buildings? Don't we need inhabitants to justify all these things?
When I woke, it was time for lunch, and I ate toast with tuna salad from the refrigerator. My tuna salad has capers, and this is caperless. The knives spilled out. More work.
But washing all the spoons and knives can be like sorting through old pictures if you look at it right. Memories. All the meals eaten. When you bring a spoon to mouth, of course, you don't want to think of where it's been before. But when you wash it, sometimes you can remember how it touched those you loved, and though you've washed their germs, there could be a touch of the talismanic. The energy of one you loved resting somewhere below, or maybe above, the disinfected skin.
It's best not to think of the departed until sunset. Don't mar the day with them.
The sun isn't so different from a canister of cloves. Or no, that isn't right. But both are homey when they're in your home.
Blooms the day between lunch and dinner. Stretch and stretch of blinding light. It grows, the day, like a child mannequin turns into a mannequin.
One day in the ancient past, I went to a skating party. A girl in my second-grade class went to the new roller skating rink to celebrate her birthday.
At the party, I broke my finger.
Gravity is like an apple. It pulled things together. Sickness is also like an apple in that it also pulls things together. It pulls skin into bone, eyes down, hair off, and it pulls people to the sick to tend to them. God, I hate being tended to.

We have agreed to a settlement with Herbalife International of America, Inc. and its affiliates that provides $200 million in redress for consumers we contend were harmed by the practices challenged in the Commission's complaint.1 Just as importantly, the order also includes injunctive relief that will protect U.S. consumers involved with Herbalife and provides important reminders to other multi-level marketing companies.
Herbalife is a multi-level marketing organization that offers its distributors the ability to earn money by selling Herbalife-brand weight-management, dietary supplement, and personal care products. As alleged in the complaint, Herbalife's marketing materials – in English and Spanish – promise part-time income of $500 to $1,500 per month, and substantial full-time income, showing pictures of Herbalife distributors enjoying expensive houses, luxury cars, and exotic vacations. In fact, only a small minority of distributors have made anything near what the company promises, and they have done so mainly by recruiting a "downline" of distributors who buy the product at wholesale. Indeed, for years, Herbalife's business model primarily compensated members for recruiting new distributors to purchase product, not for selling product at retail to users outside of the Herbalife network. As described in the complaint, this structure led many members to purchase an oversupply of product and rewarded only the tiny percentage of distributors with large downlines. As a result, according to the complaint, a large majority of distributors made little or no money and a substantial percentage lost money.
With this settlement, Herbalife has agreed to restructure its business, transforming it from an organization that pays its distributors based on their own wholesale purchases and those of their downlines, to one where compensation is calculated based upon verifiable retail sales. Significantly, in order to pay compensation to distributors at current levels, the order requires Herbalife to verify, through receipts and other reliable methods, that its business is driven by retail sales and that at least 80% of its sales are made to legitimate end-users. Otherwise, it must reduce rewards to lower levels. Under the order, an independent compliance auditor will review and assess Herbalife's compliance with these structural provisions for a period of seven years. Herbalife is also barred from misleading distributors about their earnings potential and must pay $200 million in consumer redress.
In addition to providing significant relief to consumers who may have been harmed by Herbalife's practices and protecting consumers who may join Herbalife in the future, this settlement also serves as an important reminder to multi-level marketing firms. They should ensure that income representations are not false or misleading, and that compensation structures do not incentivize recruitment and wholesale purchases unrelated to retail demand. Put simply, the structure of a multi-level marketing business should present a viable retail opportunity. We are pleased that this order will require Herbalife to base rewards on tracked and verified retail sales and recommend that all multi-level marketing companies likewise take sufficient steps to ensure their practices are not unfair, false, or misleading.

it's Talking Points with the Founding Fathers!
Hello patriots!
Are you glad you're in America today? If by the end of this post, you're not?
Leave. Just leave.
Let's look at some recent headlines:
"Egypt on Fire"
"Swiss hotel bombed"
"Spain jobless rate surges to 20.33%…"
"Breaking News: Ruling Party Headquarters of President Mubarak Is Reportedly on Fire in Cairo "
"Calm in Afghanistan Ends With Kabul Supermarket Blast"
"Homicide Bomber Kills 35 at Russian Airport" – Didn't this use to say "suicide bomber"?
Ok, enough. I'm shuddering. But I am also thankful I live in America. I can sit right here in my house and worship God, anytime I want, anyway I want, and without retribution. There are no riots going on outside. There are no bombs dropping all around me. I am not starving. I can sleep knowing I am safe because of men and women who put their lives on the line for me. I am free.
Today is a good day. I live in America.

"Gun safety is a public health issue," said Ben Chandler, president and CEO of the Foundation for a Healthy Kentucky, a co-sponsor of the poll. "Whether it's a toddler who stumbles across a loaded gun or a teenager showing off to a friend, accidents happen every day. We can prevent these tragedies by keeping guns and bullets in separate, secure places."
Asked if they had a loaded gun in the home, one in four of the gun owners said they did. Of those with a loaded gun, 10 percent said it was locked and 15 percent said it was unlocked.
The news release noted that in 2015, 694 Kentuckians and nearly 1,500 children in America died from a firearm injury. Kentucky ranks about 26th in population but 13th in number of deaths from firearms, 15.2 per 100,000 people.
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends not keeping a firearm in a home with a child, but if you, it says the firearm should be unloaded and securely locked in storage, away from the ammunition.
The poll found that those with higher incomes were more likely to have a firearm in the home than those with lower incomes, around 60 percent compared to 47 percent. And those living in suburbs (63 percent) and rural counties (62 percent) were more likely to have a firearm in the home, compared to those in urban counties (37 percent).
The poll was funded by the foundation and Cincinnati-based Interact for Health. It surveyed a random sample of 1,580 Kentucky adults via landlines and cell phones, and has an error margin of plus or minus 2.5 percentage points.

Humanoid Bridge (人型艦橋 Hitogata Kankyou) is the last sub-boss of Splash Warfly's Battleship stage in Mega Man X7.
It attacks with several rotating turrets at its base, and even though Zero's saber can deflect the shots back, its much easier to use Axl and his standard gun to target the turrets while dodging. When one cannon is destroyed, its torso transforms, retracting its head and revealing a cannon in its chest which it uses to launch a trio of fireballs before changing back. The fireballs explode on contact with the deck, leaving a pillar of flames that last for several seconds. When all turrets are destroyed, the Humanoid Bridge will explode, taking the battleship with it.
- During the boss battle against Splash Warfly, its damaged remains can be seen floating out in the distance.

We were there for 3D2N and Day 1 was more of us going into town and jalan-jalan, touring like a tourist, buy some dried prawns and stuffs. Nothing much really. Day 2 is where we just chill by the resort with their awesome private beach. Jennie and I just lay by the beach, take pictures and ordered coconuts and sandwich.
The 4 dishes below were our dinner on the first day when we were out in town. They were alright, quite nice and not too expensive. Nothing to scream about but if you are in pangkor, one dining place that is a must try would be Daddy's Cafe, we went there on the 2nd night and man the food was Yummylicious!! I would go back there again if I were to be in Pangkor.

Vintage Ourika Rug 110 cm x 255 cm, wool and mixed recycled fabrics
We travel every year to Morocco to source a unique selection of Rugs for you. Every Rug has been carefully selected by us in Morocco. They are all vintage rugs.
Moroccan carpets are always woven by woman. Produced for the own need they are expression of the live, struggle or joy of the woman weaving them. They are named by the region or the place they come from or by the name of the tribe the waver comes from.
Originally these carpets were made for personal and domestic use by the different ethnic groups of mainly Berber, rarely Arabic, origin within Morocco, most of whom were semi-nomadic. The carpets were normally used as bedding or blankets and were made by the women for their own families, who passed weaving techniques down through the generations.
The way in which these carpets were woven made them easily adaptable to any climate: in the mountains, they are made with a high pile and are more loosely knotted so as to provide protection against the cold, whereas in warmer climes a lower pile height and a finer weave is employed.
In the early 20th century, Moroccan carpets fascinated artists such as Wassily Kandinsky and Le Corbusier and today bring images of Mark Rothko or Cy Twombly to mind. In other words, an enquiry into the Islamically influenced culture of North Africa in general and carpets from Morocco in particular leads us to the roots of European avant-garde art.
Azilal or Ourika: Azilal rugs or Azilals, as their name suggests, originate from the craggy and steep Azilal region, located in the remote and hard to reach High Atlas mountains, in the south of the city of Beni Mellal , about 180 km North-East Marrakech. Only performed by women of this region, Azilal rugs are made from virgin raw wool by alternating composed patterns of one single knotted line and one or two woven lines, according to a cultural ritual that mothers are passing down to daughters for generations. Azilal rugs are often associated with another name " Ourika rugs " to actually refer to all the rugs that are produced a little further south by the High Atlas mountains tribes : from Demnat North to Imlil south, covering thus the entire mountainous region of Ait Ourir , Ourika Valley and the Oukaimden park. Azilal rugs feature great creativity in terms of design; they combine irregular and abstract patterns with numerous Berbers symbols and diamonds based graphics. They are often decorated with colored materials such as wool and cotton tainted with vegetable dye or threads of recycled cloth of different colors. Azilal rugs' background is ivory /cream, made of naturel virgin wool. Each Azilal rug contains a tale of its weaver, in a kind of pictorial and creative design.

Let's start by agreeing that there's nothing wrong with 'nice' – although the word can have a slightly saccharine ring to it.
Being a thoughtful and loving or attentive partner, colleague or friend is a Good Thing. We all need to give and receive neighbourliness and creative connection in our lives.
Nice can be a force for good, but there are pitfalls when this tips over into dogged people pleasing.
Anger and resentments are part of the human condition and we all need healthy ways to admit and deal with their underlying causes.
Bottling up anger means that resentments and grievances have to stay hidden. By absorbing these emotions we do ourselves, and others, a disservice.
Hiding behind a permanently sunny and agreeable persona means we are never truly known. This leads us to fear that those negative qualities are never able to be seen as then we fear facing rejection.
Always being seen as The Good Guy equals an inability to be able to value ourselves and our own wants. Constantly pleasing others will mean that personal needs will always have to be pushed away.
This causes hidden resentment as we have to absorb all the negative feelings, swallow them and somehow find them a permanent inner storage space which will need to be suppressed when others can't attain to our saintly level and reciprocate when the time comes for it to be our turn.
In fact, for the expert People Pleaser there is no turn. 'After you' becomes their motto and the rôle is that of always being the noble, needed one. There's no healthy give and take as it's all selfless giving.
For all the supposed gratitude that feeds this overbearing kindness, others can view the people pleaser as a bit of a pushover.
So, how to find a healthy balance?
We need to remember that we all have choices and it's quite OK to say no sometimes. We don't have to justify or excuse this.
It's important that we all know the boundaries that are healthy for us and that balancing our own priorities and needs is an important part of self-care. We all have to look after ourselves in a healthy way before we try to look after others.
In couple therapy, we often see clients who are described as 'conflict averse' and cannot express their rage or dissatisfaction.
These people often come from families where there was no anger – so they have never seen differences and clashing opinions being safely aired.
Or they may come from families where rage or violence was a destructive force. And these clients understandably grow up to feel that dissent leads to chaotic, unmanageable situations.
Learning to safely confront negative feelings is an important part of good couple life.
Learning to ask for help and not always be seen as the first-aider is a life lesson.
Being able to be the needy one sometimes and not always the needed one is imperative in any relationship.
Friends can be roughly divided into Radiators and Drains. Let go and block those toxic drains, they aren't an asset to a good relationship, but even a good Radiator will occasionally break down and need to be able to withstand care and TLC from others.
So, you overly nice people, remember it's OK to sometimes be the leaky one and maybe friends, family and partners will enjoy being the nurse instead of the patient.

Designed by Roberto Rodricks, a 2010 Coventry graduate, the RTV (Rapid Tracked Vehicle) concept is a series of three vehicles, including Double R Racer, Double R Response and Double R Weapon, sharing an identical layout and design. The "Double R Racer" is essentially an all terrain race vehicle to set new speed records in the class, and the "Double R Response" is a high-performance search and rescue vehicle that can move on virtually everything, from snowy mountains to deserts, while the "Double R Weapon" is a military vehicle that comes equipped with arms and ammunition. Though all three vehicles present the same design, still they maintain individuality with diversified functions.
Powered by 5.5-liter V12 engine capable of generating 650 horsepower, the RTV Double R runs on bio-diesel to take you from zero to 60 mph in around 4.5 seconds. Finished in a variety of materials, including carbon fiber, fiberglass, aluminum and titanium, the single-seater accommodates the rider in the middle to provide a wide viewing angle. The RTV also includes an advanced heads-up-display to project all the essential navigation and driving information quickly and easily onto the windscreen.

Hi there. I, like Keith, have dropped out of the US and do a lot of traveling (I write from Copenhagen now). I don't have enough money to practice serious geo-arbitrage, but I am putting my stake in the ground by going homeless even though I earn a fat salary. I've been thinking of turning this the below story into a blog. Keith gave me permission to post it here first.
The Homeless Executive
January 2, 2007
1. Becoming Homeless
I am a thirty-something, gainfully employed working professional, and I am homeless. Actually, I am a bit more than that, I am a VP at a successful company, I manage dozens of employees, deal with Fortune 500 clients and prospects, speak at international business conferences, jet set around the world for work, and I earn several times US per capita income. But I am still homeless. Because of the exorbitant price of housing in the US, particularly on the West Coast, where I am from, I decided as of this January 1 to become without a home, rented or owned.
This is only a feasible lifestyle because (1) I am single and (2) I travel so much for work (I am on the road about 4 days out of 5) that I was almost never at my apartment even when I had one. I realized that it was cheaper to rent a decent hotel room for the few days a month when I wasn't traveling than it was to rent an apartment. Not that that isn't a little depressing, not having a place to call your own, if only or a few days a month, but I have decided I can tolerate it, at least for a while.
During the late 90s and for the early part of this century, I called the SF Bay Area home. In 1997 I started a well-paid job, and thought about buying a house in Oakland for around $250K, which could actually buy a decent house back then, even if it was quite a bit more expensive than most areas of the country. For no particular reason, I put that plan on the shelf and decided to focus on work, which was an unlucky break because that's when the dot.com bubble hit in the Bay Area, driving housing prices (both sales and rentals) through the roof. Preoccupied with the buzz around Silicon Valley, I didn't think about housing again till the collapse of the Internet boom in 2000.
In most of the country, housing prices hardly budged in the late 90s, but in the Bay Area they had increased 50-100%. So if I had been anywhere almost in the country, I easily could have put less than $25K as a down payment on a decent house. In Portland, for example, houses could still be had for less than $100K. But looking around the Bay Area, I didn't see any easily affordable housing, so again I put house buying on the back burner. Besides, I thought, the dot.com bubble is over, and it's a recession, so housing prices aren't likely to increase.
Obviously I was wrong. Low-interest rates (perhaps an excessive of liquidity caused by the entry of China and India into the world labor markets) and other factors fueled a house buying spree that gathered momentum with ARMs and marketing and greed to fuel a housing price boom, which was really a second consecutive boom for the SF Bay Area.
In 2005, I started my new job (my first at the executive level), and with my fierce international travel schedule, it became almost arbitrary where I decided to call home in the US, so I chose Seattle, though I spent more time in hotels and on a plane than in Washington State. Of course, by then, the nationwide (some would say worldwide) housing boom had sent housing prices in Seattle and the Pacific NW through the roof as well, so even there, $25 or $50K wasn't be enough for a down payment on a substantial house, unless I was willing to take on one of those new exotic mortgages (I was not).
So on January 1 of this year I abandoned my apartment and my official home became a mailbox. Now, clearly, I could afford to continue renting an apartment. Rental prices have not kept pace with housing prices (a sure sign of a bubble, in and of itself, many would say), so I truly don't HAVE to be the homeless executive. Partly I have become homeless to save a little money. And I am not homeless in the truest sense of the word, the poverty and desperation it conveys, for I do have friends and family who are willing to let me spend a few days at their places, and for that I am deeply grateful. I also could book a room at the Marriott or Hyatt any time I want, and not even have to spend cash (I have a LOT of frequent flyer and hotel points accumulated from the past two years).
Mostly, my current homeless state is simply an expression of frustration with the lack of affordable housing in the US. The recent run-up in housing prices can simply be summed up by:
The New York Times, Aug 26, 2006.
I am well into my 30s and I would like to set-down roots, married or not. But the graph above, based on Robert Shiller data, daunts me, both in the present and for the future.
If one looks at the current housing boom as simply a phenomenon, without an actor or villain behind it, my act reads as one of frustration. Some do see a moral, or rather, immoral dimension to this, and thus search for villains (a fiscally-mismanaging Fed, lenders handing out irresponsible loans, glib marketers and realtors, greedy condo flippers). Others are not focused on finding someone to blame, but still have a sense of moral outrage, that the situation is somehow wrong, that some, by dint of luck and location have seen huge appreciations (which really don't count until the homes are sold), while others, through alternative life choices or simple youth (so you were 19 when the housing boom started?) simply weren't given a chance at all. One ex-coworker of mine sold her Bay Area home in the mid-90s to help pay for her ailing mother-in-law's health care, probably at several hundred thousand dollars below its current price. She and her husband, both middle-aged, may never be able to reasonably afford to buy a home again in their lifetimes.
I personally do not feel the need to finger a real villain in all of this, but I do feel a kinship with groups such as Bay Area Housing Boycott (http://www.boycotthousing.com), and others who are similarly frustrated and/or outraged. If this is indeed all a serious bubble, then I feel especially sorry for the twenty-something who is simply too young to remember when decent houses could be had for well under $200K. She or he will stretch her $45K salary to buy a $500K house with an exotic mortgage, only to become indentured to her upside-down exotic mortgage, as the value of the house drops below the value of the mortgage. If this isn't a bubble at all, or only a minor one, then we are in a new economic equilibrium where buying a house will simply require a previously unknown level of financial commitment, with all the risks (losing one's job and then house) and narrowing of life options that such a commitment entails. That's not great either.
I'm hoping this blog will attract other bloggers and posters with similarly bizarre or difficult life situations that are a result of the housing bubble/boom.

Casey Serin
Houses, based on incomes, simply aren't affordable in the US. This New York Times graph, based on Robert Shiller data, explains It is also true in many others places in the world that I would consider living. Five years ago, $50K could have bought a pretty nice house in say, Perth, Australia, and at that price I might be willing to wait it out there, as remote as it is (it helps that they have nice beaches). But Perth has seen a pretty big run-up too (the author of http://housingpanic.blogspot.com, Keith, calls this concept geo-arbitrage).

To the homeless executive.
Get married, settle down, rent if you have too and be happy.
Life is too short to be single and live in a hotel room. don't glorify it. It's silly.

Heroes not yet appeared in lion
athan Never is an ex-policeman with a terrible past. His wife
Laura was killed by a criminal who was running away from
Nathan himself, and his daughter Ann has been in a psychiatric clinic for years recovering from the shock of having witnessed
her mother's death. In order to pay for his daughter's treatment, Nathan, who retreated to a Shaolin temple to study martial
arts, has been forced to return to work, and to accept a post as a
special agent in
a private detective agency. He's a hero in the traditional mold, absolutely honest, hardened to the work he does but certainly
not cynical or disillusioned. His life takes place in the near future, in a civilization dominated by technology and constantly taken up with problems of pollution and the excessive power of
the mass-media. The city looks like an immense megalopolis; furthermore, the State is well aware that the police force alone
can't manage to tackle the rising crime, and so the authorities have encouraged the establishment of private agencies partly
subsidized by private funds. The Agenzia Alfa Nathan works for is one of these. The metropolis where Nathan lives and works doesn't have a name. It, or rather SHE is simply
"The City", obviously inspired by Los Angeles in "Blade Runner" and Gotham City in Frank Miller's "Dark Knight". But there's also no
lack of short visits to a sort of Far West made up of land scorched by the sun or by radio-activity (like Australia in "Mad
Max") and the adventures in a "zero" lunar setting (the location of mines and a super-prison) or on orbital stations, real
cities suspended in the darkness of space. A cross between the
old honest, fearless hero and the new cynical, easy-going anti-hero,
Nathan Never was created by Michele Medda, Antonio Serra and Giuseppe (Bepi) Vigna, a trio of young authors who had long been working for Sergio Bonelli as scriptwriters for some of the Dylan Dog and Martin
Mystère stories. Nathan Never is physically strong and athletic as a result of his training. He doesn't have any bionic grafts
or extra-sensory powers.
In his world there aren't any
machines for travel in space or time. Nathan uses his gun only when there is no alternative. His special agent's salary, although
high, isn't enough to make him rich; for years he has used his money only to pay for his daughter's treatment. And now that
she is cured and has left to go into space, our hero only uses his money to build a new life for himself and his partner Hadija.
Nathan fights for justice, but he's not fighting a crusade. One of the features of the series is that all the characters,
heroes or criminals, are portrayed as people who have a motive - right or wrong - for doing what they do. Goodies and baddies
don't exist - but good and bad deeds do.
ddis Abeba, Ethiopia, is Napoleone
Di Carlo's birthplace, where his parents, his father an Italian and his mother a French lady, give him a Western education
(he studies at the Italian school). But young Napoleone simultaneously assimilates the more archaic culture of the African
country where he is growing up and is strongly attracted by the primitive spirituality of the animistic beliefs of these peoples.
Following his own natural bent, he becomes a policeman and works as a security officer at the Italian embassy in Addis Abeba.
But soon his
enthusiasm for this
profession fades and he is faced with bitter disappointment. Napoleone - this is the reason for his disillusionment - feels
responsible ever afterwards for the failure to arrest the Cardinal, a diabolic criminal
he has met during his years in Africa, who becomes his sworn enemy and repeatedly manages to trick and evade Napoleone's grasp.
The Cardinal, disguised as a merchant
accredited by the Italian embassy, manages a veritable slave trade and has no hesitation when confronted with the need to
get rid of a whole human cargo (small boys taken away from native villages) because Napoleone, too late unfortunately, is
just about to find the way to unmask his trafficking. Disenchanted, Napoleone abandons the police force and, following the
premature death of his
parents (killed during a tribal
revolt), he leaves Africa - though he can never forget the charm of this continent.
is real name is Patrick Wilding, but the Indians
call him Za-gor-te-nay, "The Spirit with the Hatchet". On
the old American frontier in the first half of the last century, Zagor fights to maintain peace, protect the Indian tribes
and hunt down criminals. Son of an army official retiring to live as a
pioneer in the forests
of the north-east, Patrick Wilding sees his parents die at the hands of a band of Abenaki Indians, led by a certain Salomon
Kinsky. Taken in by a strange vagabond, the boy grows up with only one thought on his mind: revenge. When he is old enough
to fulfill this he finds out that his Father had himself slaughtered many Indians, and the boy's understanding of the relativity
of the concepts of good , evil and justice compels him to transform himself (with his accomplices the Sullivans, a family
of acrobats who are his image makers) into Za-Gor-Te-Nay. Better still, shortened, Zagor. He is a kind of avenger always ready
to side with the weak and the oppressed, whether red, white or black, whoever they may be. Moving his shack to an island surrounded
by quick-sand in a marshy area of Darkwood Forest, Zagor begins his work as a peacemaker.
He becomes a veritable myth for
the Indians, who believe he is an immortal spirit; he is also respected by the whites who know of his many skills. Dressed
in his unmistakable Native American Super-Hero costume, with the symbol of a thunder bird on his chest, he maintains law and
order, using a pistol, but mostly his rough stone hatchet that he handles so skillfully. Agile, strong and athletic, Zagor
exploits these talents to make people believe that he is the messenger of peace from the Great Spirit. He is not a solitary
and arrogant avenger: quite the contrary! Loyal and generous, as well as having a vagabond soul, Zagor has numerous friends
and is ready to rush, accompanied by his
faithful friend Cico, to wherever there is need of him. Woe betide
the wicked man who hears the echo of his battle cry: the man's fate is already sealed! With these elements that are a clever
mix of Tarzan, Robin Hood, Don Quixote, Davy Crockett and the Phantom, Sergio Bonelli, alias Guido Nolitta, started a saga
in 1961 that is still evolving today. It has successfully won the favor of a large section of the public, thanks to the variety
of stories which, beginning with a Western backdrop, range
from horror themes to science
fiction, from magic to psychological tales. The character has been graphically created by the skillful hand of Gallieno Ferri.
o an overwhelming extent,
the aura of fascination surrounding
exploits of Commander Mark and his Ontario Wolves is to be attributed to the authors- Pietro Sartoris, Dario Guzzon
and Giovanni Sinchetto, collectively called EsseGesse - who must be credited with much of the appeal of this figure: for the
authors have displayed amazing ability in the characterization not only of the leading man, but also of the foils populating
the series.
Against the background
of the war fought in the second half of the Eighteenth century by the American people to defend their independence from English
domination, our commander is presented to the readers as a handsome and brave man, a sturdy and invincible young man, who
nonetheless does not convey any trace of the aloofness that is often generated by a protagonist's sense of superiority over
the surrounding world. Mark has just the right degree of self-confidence as a hero and he instils in us a warm feeling of
confidence; he has accumulated excellent experience in his field (pitched battles and uncompromising warfare against the soldiers
of His Majesty the
English king) and he uses his vast knowledge on every occasion and always successfully. This is why his name strikes
terror and dismay in the colonialists' ranks, and there is no reward, blackmail, trick, ambush, trap or deceit that works
with him… He's a sly old fox, as elusive as a ghost. Mark seems to be immortal. Immortal as the symbols he embodies,
justice and freedom. He moves together with the Ontario Wolves, a group of indomitable guerrilla fighters composed
of men and women from many different places, of all ages and from all social classes, people with different histories and
past lives who have joined together and are united by one single great aspiration: to fight for their right to live in freedom!
They have their own chant: "The Ontario Wolves is our name/ To fight for America is our aim/ You Redcoats, tremble and shake/
Our imminent victory will make you quake!". And every time their chant echoes in the Canadian forests, their hated oppressors
quake with fear!

Urban legend claims that Twinkies have an indefinite shelf life — the ability to outlast plague, environmental disaster and zombie invasion. In reality, Twinkies have a shelf life of 25 days. Hostess is said to produce 500 million Twinkies a year, using 8 millions pounds of sugar, 7 millions pounds of flour and 1 million eggs.
But the "Today Show" reports that the snacks are filled with 34 other ingredients, many of which are man-made. Hostess claims that its iconic desserts contain "all-natural" food stuffs. This might be true, if you consider rocks and petroleum natural to be "of the Earth" products. Twinkies contain such mouth-watering ingredients as Polysorbate 60, Red 40, mono and diglycerides and calcium sulfate. Because they lack any dairy ingredients, they spoil more slowly than other snacks. This has contributed to their reputation for longevity.
Twinkies and their rocky ingredients were the subject of a 2007 book by Steve Ettlinger called "Twinkie, Deconstructed." For research, Ettlinger interviewed bakers and even traveled below the Earth to see where Twinkie ingredients were mined. The dessert cakes contain sorbic acid, which is derived from natural gas. Some ingredients were found to come from the oil fields of China. Others came from phosphate mines in Idaho. So-called vitamins in the dessert come from petroleum.
Ettlinger was troubled by the lack of actual food stuffs in this food. As he wrote, "That industrial aspect of our food — and Twinkies are but one among tens of thousands of processed foods — would be less troubling if it were easier to still see where it all comes from. There is often no 'terroir' to an ingredient, no one place that it is actually from." What did Hostess have to say about Ettlinger's research? David Leavitt is vice president for Snack Marketing at Hostess. As he told reporters, "deconstructing the Twinkie is like trying to deconstruct the universe. We think the millions of people … would agree that Twinkies just taste great."
Leavitt was not the only person inspired to creativity by Ettlinger's book. San Francisco photographer Dwight Eschliman decided to photograph all 37 ingredients found in the Twinkie as outlined by Ettlinger's book. In his project "37 or So Ingredients," Eschliman broke the Twinkie down into its "component" parts. He was motivated by his mother's encouragement to eat healthy foods in his childhood and his own role as a parent to a small child.
In Eschliman's photographs, you can see wheat flour and the yellow, powdery chemical FD&C Yellow #5. The white powders could be soy protein isolate, cellulose gum, baking soda, or soy flour. You can see the complete photography exhibit here.

New Bank of America App Offers Spanish Language Option and Better Navigation
Bank of America is experiencing a tremendous growth in mobile banking, and has enhanced its mobile app to better meet its customers needs.
The app now offers card rewards redemption, easier navigation and a Spanish language option.
"Our clients increasingly rely on their mobile devices to navigate daily life and manage their finances, and now we are excited to give our Spanish-speaking clients enhanced access to our mobile capabilities," said Michelle Moore, head of Digital Banking in the company's statement. "We want to be where our customers are, which is why we are proud to deliver these new features that provide increased convenience to our 20 million active mobile users."
Some of the new features include:
- The Android and iPhone apps were redesigned to make the user interface more intuitive and easier to navigate.
- Users can select either Spanish or English. If a customer's online banking profile is currently set to Spanish, the app will automatically offer users this option when they log in.
- Customers can view and redeem their Bank of America® Cash Rewards and Bank of America® Travel Rewards from the app.
- Mobile users can access their FICO score, see what factors are influencing their scores, and how their scores compare to national averages. Customers have access to Bank of America's Better Money Habits, which provides free financial education tools to help customers maintain healthy credit.
These changes are in response to mobile banking's growing popularity. Bank of America reports that users logged into their accounts more than 900 million times during the second quarter of 2016. During that same period, customers made more than 25 million mobile bill payments and 80 million transfers (a growth of 30% and 46% respectively over 2015). Customers are also depositing 280,000 checks daily, making 22,000 appointments each week and using their smartphones to make cardless withdrawals at more than 2,800 ATMs.

This was a speech by Dr. Li on a demonstration protesting ABC News Corporation and Jimmy Kimmel at Boston today.
What a Journey
Chunyan Li, Ph.D.
Dear all,
How long does it take us to get here today? One hour? Two hours? For me, it is 20 years! 20 years ago I arrived at this land of the free, full of ideals, perhaps from listening too much to radio Voice of America. 20 years later my sons join me to protest against ABC's spreading of racial hatred and violence. What is wrong with this picture?
I ask my teenage son whether we should just treat "killing Chinese" as a joke. He said this demonstrates what the society and media had been feeding our young kids. My heart sank. Is America moving forward or backward?
Now I ask again: How long does it take us to get here?
I don't know about you, but the last 20 days seem longer than my 20 years. Those of us who stand here today must have been reading, writing, arguing, and agonizing over confusing pieces of reports and commentaries. And we ask ourselves, are we being unreasonable? Is our English that bad that we don't know what an apology is?
On 10/28, the night of our first protest, Mr. Kimmel said, "today is a weird day…I am sorry if I offended anyone." I ask ABC, who is the weird one? Who truly apologizes if he doesn't even say sorry for what? Sorry to whom? To the Chinese whose sense of tranquility is forever disturbed? To our kids whom we try so hard to shield from pain and harm? To the schools that teach kids the spirit of Dr. Martin Luther King? ABC, do you call that an apology?
In a letter to 80-20, ABC still claims it only entertains. Why is joking about killing Chinese so entertaining? Is it because we are always so nice? My friend's sweet 11-year old wants to write on his poster, "do not take advantage of us." I first didn't understand, then found out he meant "don't take advantage of us because we are nice." That broke my heart!!! ABC and Mr. Kimmel, we hold you accountable for taking away our children's precious sense of security. And we hold you accountable for sowing the seeds of hatred in other children's minds.
On 10/29, Mr. Kimmel even resorted to the ridiculous notion of cultural difference. I ask him, what cultural difference do you mean? A culture of hard work, respect, harmony versus a culture of violence and racial hatred? Then I admit there is an unbridgeable difference between Kimmel and us. We know what's right, what's wrong. And we know what humor is too! Yet we have no tolerance of your malicious joke, subsequent insult on air, then the absurd reference to culture. This only proves Mr. Kimmel you are unfit to be a public figure.
ABC, stop blaming cultural differences for your own mistakes! Except for Native Americans, all are immigrants with unique traits. Yet we share the basic value of human dignity. Stop magnifying the differences in skin colors, or accents!
I ask a third time, how long does it take us to get here? Our friends started telling us there is another written apology somewhere. Who in real life is given so many third chances? Yet I ponder, are we asking too much? I discovered to my dismay that in that written letter, Mr. Kimmel is still hiding behind the 6-year old. Come on Mr. Kimmel, you think our anger is on a 6-year old? Our anger is on your malicious question "Should we allow the Chinese to live?" Our anger is on your subsequent arrogant ridicule. Our rage is on ABC for not letting the public know the truth of these so called apologies.
America is the home of the brave. ABC, show our kids you have the courage of admitting wrong doing, show our kids you have the guts to take responsibility by dismissing Mr. Kimmel. Show us you have the resolve to institute procedures to prevent future incidences. ABC, do NOT hide behind a 6-year old! Show us what a major network can do to right its wrong!
Twenty years, twenty days. Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Who doesn't want to be happy? But without life, what is liberty? Without liberty, what is happiness? Let's join hands in our pursuit of human dignity.
Teach kids to love, not to kill!

Clinical research-The silent partner in dental practice
For 5,000 years innovative researchers, often anonymously, have been providing dentists and their antecedents with a rich inheritance of information, techniques, and materials. The giants of dental research of the past can still serve as role models today. This paper presents a history of clinical research and relates past work to current and future trends. In the last few decades, both technical innovation and oral biology and prevention have been progressing at an accelerated rate to provide a steady influx of new answers to dental practitioners and to elicit new questions from the next generation of dental investigators.

Longtime Libertarian activist Lance Brown has launched a petition regarding the Libertarian Party of Kentucky's failure to properly and quickly address the racist comments by Sonny Landham.
The purpose of the petition is to allow concerned Libertarians to voice their opinion to Ken Moellman and the leadership of the LPKY.
Any libertarians concerned about Mr. Landham's tarnishing of the public image of libertarianism are encouraged to both sign the petition, and pass it on to others, ideally in time to encourage the LPKY in their upcoming deliberations regarding Landham's candidacy.
The petition reads as follows:
Libertarians Against Landham Petition
We the undersigned believe that Sonny Landham should not be endorsed, approved, or supported by the Libertarian Party of Kentucky as a candidate for Senate or any other office.
Mr. Landham has proven from his comments that he is not a libertarian, and many of his recent statements and positions have been both ideologically incorrect and socially repugnant. Libertarians do not support genocidal war, war based on economic motives, or race-based immigration restrictions, to mention just a few of Mr. Landham's very un-libertarian positions. Nor do Libertarians (or any freedom-minded individuals, we would hope) support the sort of reckless racial stereotyping and denigration of whole nationalities that has been the underpinning of Mr. Landham's most widely-reported remarks.
Therefore, we the undersigned assert that the Libertarian Party of Kentucky needs to take immediate action to:
–rescind their endorsement of Sonny Landham's candidacy; and
–remove his name from any petitions or ballot-access efforts that may be underway; and
–publicly, officially, and in the firmest terms possible, disavow the racist and un-libertarian statements Mr. Landham has been making under the "Libertarian" banner; and
–initiate a public relations campaign sufficient to repair the damage that's been done to the party's image in Kentucky, especially among minority populations.
You can sign the petition on Lance Brown's website.
Many thanks to Lance Brown for bringing this petition to LFV's attention!

Why No One Talks About Tips Anymore
How To Be Financially Stable After Buying A New Home.
Everyone wishes to buy a new home because it is a good thing. It goes without saying that such a step brings with it a lot of financial strain. After making a purchase, many people usually go broke. This is usually due to poor planning and budgeting. It is necessary that you get back to being financially stable after making such a huge purchase. It is a big step already buying a new home, and this should be followed by stress-free living. You will be excused from paying rent every month when you buy your own house. It is important to have a clear view of how you manage your finances. A lot of times, people commit to paying mortgages for long periods while others take loans. Regardless of the format you use, ensure that you do not lose your financial standing.
Take a loan that you can comfortably pay for. It is important that your lending officer makes the terms associated with the loan very clear. It is important that you understand every step of the loan disbursement. Understand also that in the event of any eventuality, your house could be auctioned. Be keen on the interest rates associated with the loan. Be sure that your salary or whatever source of income you have can comfortably support this loan. Have a backup plan in the event you lose your job, or your business fails. Include the loan in your monthly budget. The bank will avail a figure to you that you would be paying every month. Let this fit into your budget.
The expenses that you are used to incurring will need to reduce since buying a home is costly. This is only until you have fewer loans to deal with and everything is back to normal. You will need to cut down on vacations and other luxuries. Due to these new changes, you will need to set a new budget. You will have to change the way you live for the time being. Keep in mind that owning a house comes with an additional set of expenses. Power bills, repair, and maintenance, water bills are some of the expenses that you would incur once you are a home owner. The advantage of owning a house, however, cannot be limited to the additional expenses you would have to incur.
If both you and your partner are jointly buying the house, it is important that you ensure all the necessary paper work has been settled. Consider looking around for cheaper options such as land and house packages before making any purchases. You buy a piece of land that already has a house built on it. It also entails getting a house with all the furnishings included.

Have you ever experienced pain after you hurt your shoulder or back after doing a workout? Perhaps your form wasn't great while you were doing cross fit… or your shoulders were hunched up around your shoulders while you were doing downward facing dog (a yoga pose).
By the time your workout is done, you can feel a headache start to form as the pain shoots up from your shoulder to your neck to your head.
Massage and analgesics only go so far,
You try and massage or foam roll the knots out yourself, or you might even end up taking panadol or ibuprofen for the pain and treating the symptoms rather than the cause. But this only takes you so far.
It stops you exercising
Let's face it shoulder pain is inconvenient. It makes it hard to concentrate if you are at work, and it can also stop you from doing exercise because you do not want to aggravate your injury.
The flow on effect.
So you end up inactive and grumpy because you can't get out and do the things you love. Or you end up sitting or standing funny just trying to get comfortable waiting for things to improve, which throws off your posture and this can start to make other things hurt like your back or neck.
