I pride myself on a sense that I should know a lot about relationships.
I have, after all, been dating for just over a decade. You may think that nothing 'counts' until, say, the 'fondling' years of the mid-teens; yet, to put this in context, a schoolfriend of mine has been with the same chap since she was 12, so I would argue this tender young age at least holds some potential. This means that I have sufficient scope to talk about this romance business, or at least to regale friends with some interesting anecdotes.
Nowadays, I'm fortunate enough to be in a relationship with a lovely man- my longest yet, so perhaps I'm learning something at least. But the more I investigate my own experiences, and equally those of others, I realise that love is not the static 'happy ever after' solution that Disney portrayed it to be. It occurs to me that- arguably in the same strain as an intellectual study- doors lead on to new doors and questions lead to more questions, a point that Carrie Bradshaw and friends confirmed only too well during six season of Sex and the City.
So here are all the questions that, like Carrie, I haven't found the answer to:
1) I don't know if opposites attract in a 'complementary' sense, or if people's characters are endowed with certain, inalienable objections, like naff regional accents, bad grammar or Physics students.
2) I don't know if common interests are the way forward, in the case of my friend who was 'matched' with his long-term girlfriend on a television dating show, or if such similarity is a disastrous way of stepping on each other's toes, since an unimaginative 'literary' boyfriend broke up with me using a bad paraphrase from a Martin Amis novel which- unfortunately- I was all too familiar with.
3) I don't know if loneliness is a universally undesirable state of being until you find 'the One', or merely a negative-but-conquerable side effect of simply being alone.
4) I don't know if I think lifelong commitment is a sacred rite which modern society errs in abusing, or indeed if the security of marriage should be sacrificed in favour of the 'moment' of love ('they had their time', a shrugging friend of mine said of his parents' divorce, expressing the newfangled detachment of our generation to these issues).
5) Following on from that, I don't know if the binding power of marriage is a financial, social trap, that prevents unhappy couples from breaking up, or if it is a necessary bond that helps couples overcome relationship hurdles and stay together with a bit of help from Ann Summers.
6) I don't know if jealousy is a natural emotion which you feel when you love someone and don't want to let them go, or a sign that there is something fundamentally mistrustful about your relationship, or indeed your own character, in order to feel it in the first place.
7) I don't know if honesty is, after all, the best policy, or if we should all indulge in a few of Fleetwood Mac's 'sweet little lies'.
8) I don't know if you should aim to be with someone that you can't live without, or if you should aim to be with someone dispensable so that you don't set yourself for a fall, most likely a fall into a vat of Ben&Jerry's.
9) I don't know if 'love at first sight' is a valid form of experience which reassures you past all romantic scepticism, or if it is merely a form of overwhelming lust which should make you sceptical of your romance in the first place.
10) I don't know if you should be looking for someone who completes the imperfect you (as Dylan puts it in The Big Lebowski soundtrack, 'takes a woman like your kind/To find the man in me'), or someone that makes you a better, more independent version of you.

10 "Now then, just as the Lord promised, he has kept me alive for forty-five years since the time he said this to Moses, while Israel moved about in the wilderness. So here I am today, eighty-five years old! 11 I am still as strong today as the day Moses sent me out; I'm just as vigorous to go out to battle now as I was then. 12 Now give me this hill country that the Lord promised me that day. You yourself heard then that the Anakites were there and their cities were large and fortified, but, the Lord helping me, I will drive them out just as he said." -Joshua 14:10-12
Caleb was one of the toughest guys in all of the Bible. At eighty-five years old, he was ready to take on more battles, extend his territory, and rely on God for help. Most of us just hope to be alive at that age! Caleb was "just getting started."
The key to his life was expressed in the word "wholeheartedly." Caleb did not live with apathy, but complete passion. His attitude is one we are called to copy. God desires those who would follow him one hundred percent. Anything less is not wholehearted.Let's talk about it on Facebook! Share your thoughts, pictures, or videos on handwriting Scripture.

Last week I had the opportunity to be a chaperone at my son's 5th grade science camp. We spent four days in the Santa Cruz Mountains just outside of Aptos. Every day the parents (chaperones) were able to take a break from 3:30-5p.m. Last Thursday we had hiked out of the redwoods, and onto a high ridge. I could see some amazing clouds over the ocean, and I knew exactly where I was going at break time. Sea Cliff State Beach was only a ten minute drive from our camp.
After being relieved of duty, I stopped and got a "real" coffee, and headed down to the beach. This is one of the shots I captured from that evening. I didn't have time to stay for the entire light show, but I was happy to get some nice color. It seemed that the gap between the clouds and the horizon had closed off just north of Santa Cruz allowing only half the sky to catch fire.

Let's face it; you certainly want your kitchen appliances working for you, just as they should, right? The question, however, is; what price are you willing to pay to get the most out of cooking equipment? Here's an outline of what it takes to make that happen.
Buy an Appliance that Best Suits Needs
Why would you purchase a kitchen appliance that you will never use? Better yet, why do you have to spend money on the wrong equipment? You must strive to get the best cooking tool in its category. And don't a mistake about it; expensive cutlery is not necessary the best and vice versa.
The most important thing is to make sure that the appliance has the features to solve your needs, irrespective of your budget. The best Panini press, for instance, should allow you to griddle and grill at the same time. It should be compact as well to save your kitchen's counter-top space. And, speaking of Panini presses, visit http://www.paniniperfect.com/multi-functional-press/ for helpful information on everything you'd want to know about the best models and what they have to offer.
Clean, Clean, Clean
You have to clean your kitchen appliances if you want to keep them in the best working condition possible. In fact, make it a habit of cleaning them soon after use. It also ensures that your food and drinks stay free of contamination. Did you know, for example, that a dirty espresso machine could be the very reason that your coffee tastes bad?
When you clean your cooking equipment, you also increase its durability. The only thing to remember is to know which appliances to clean in a dishwasher and the ones that require the use of hands.
Replace Your Fridge's Water Filter Promptly
Drinking clean water is essential for your overall well-being. You also need to use uncontaminated water for cooking. If you're a refrigerator water filter, you must know the number of gallons it can handle with a single installation. Most models will filter up to three hundred gallons or an equivalent of six months of use.
You, therefore, have to be prompt with your replacement. Remember, you only need to drink a glass of contaminated water to put yourself at the risk of falling sick. Be sure to read your owner's manual to know when your refrigerator water filter is due for replacement. It doesn't hurt setting a reminder on your phone too.

Mark "Luke Skywalker" Hamill is currently out on the press trail for uber-violent spy-flick Kingsman: Secret Service. But where the son of Darth goes, Star Wars questions are sure to follow. Speaking to the LA Times, Hamill has cautioned fans not to overly build their expectations for Episode VII: The Force Awakens in order to avoid inevitable disappointment.
"We're not trying to play games with people," said Hamill.
"We just want to maximize their experience at the movies where it should be seen and not have it leaked over the Internet. Believe me, it will be here before you know it. Forget about it, that's my advice. Look forward to all the summer movies. I'm telling you, it's just a movie. These people that build it up in their minds like it's going to be the second coming of, I don't know what — they're bound to be disappointed."
That leads, of course to security issues surrounding the shoot. It seems great efforts were made to avoid potential spoilers hitting the web:
"We had problems before with people leaking stuff, but I was saying to them, 'Is it really necessary to put on this giant robe with a hood that hangs down to your chest to go from my trailer to the soundstage?' They said, 'Drones.' I said, 'You're kidding! Really?'… I wish people would just relax."
Though much has been made of the elder statesmen of the Star Wars universe returning for the new film, Hamill talked down his involvement in the next installment.
"I would have been completely OK with it not including us, but I do think having the original cast members there gives it a sense of continuity and scope," said Hamill.
"But mind you, it's really about the new generation, it's not about us."
Hamill did however express his relief and excitement at finding the new films helmed by a gang of true Star Wars fans.
"It's exciting from the standpoint that it's the first of the movies in that universe that's conceived and directed by the fan generation. We've never had that before," explained Hamill.
"Now, Larry Kasdan is one of the old-timers like us, but the captain of the ship is J.J. Abrams and he was a fan of the series, which I find very interesting. "
Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens hits cinemas on December 18th. For all those rumours and leaks that Hamill would rather you avoid, click here.

Two of college football's most dominant rushing attacks will clash when San Diego State faces Army in Saturday's Armed Forces Bowl — even though the two offenses are dramatically different.
The pro-style offense used by San Diego State (10-2) is led by the top rusher in the Bowl Subdivision, senior Rashaad Penny. The consensus All-American finished fifth in Heisman Trophy voting, ran for 2,027 yards and needs 107 more to break the school's single-season mark set last year by Donnel Pumphrey.
Army (9-3) leads the nation in averaging 368.1 yards rushing per game and is last with 29.6 yards passing using a triple-option formation that chugs methodically downfield. It's led by senior quarterback Ahmad Bradshaw, whose 1,566 yards rushing rank fifth nationally.
The latest news from around North Texas.
In winning the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy for the first time since 1996, the Black Knights attempted no passes against Air Force, one against Navy (complete for 20 yards) and 19 all season. San Diego State offensive coordinator Jeff Horton said his unit was "like an Air Raid team" compared to Army's grind-it-out, keep-the-ball approach.
"It's a very difficult scheme to stop with any consistency," Aztecs coach Rocky Long said of the Black Knights' option. "We are only going to get the ball five or six times for the entire football game. It's very unusual, but for a true football fan, it's going to be very interesting to watch."
San Diego State is the first FBS program with consecutive 2,000-yard rushing seasons from different players. Penny could become the fourth player to compile five straight games of 200 yards, and Army coach Jeff Monken knows his defense will need to slow him down.
"He's proven he's one of the best players in the nation, if not the best," Monken said.
Some other things to watch for in Saturday's game at the home stadium of TCU:
For all the attention on the offenses, both teams have respectable defenses: San Diego State is 11th in the FBS in total defense and Army ranks 35th.
San Diego State's 6-0 start included wins over Stanford and Arizona State. Then the Aztecs lost at home to Boise State and Fresno State, realistically ending their chances of winning a third consecutive Mountain West championship, and have since won four straight. SDSU is playing in its eighth consecutive bowl, the last seven under Long. The program appeared in eight total bowls prior to this streak. Army ties a school record with a second straight bowl appearance, equaling the 1984-85 teams that were the first in West Point history to accept invitations.
Aztecs senior right guard Antonio Rosales injured his left ankle early this season and hasn't played since mid-October. Long said he plans to start Rosales in his final college game and see how long he can play in trying to open holes for Penny.
Bradshaw needs just 22 yards to have the best rushing season at a service academy. Navy's Napoleon McCallum ran for 1,587 yards in 1983.
San Diego State is seeking 11 wins for the third consecutive season. The only other FBS schools to achieve that during the 2015-17 seasons are Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State and Oklahoma. ... Monken, in his fourth season at West Point, has led the Black Knights to three straight winning seasons for the first time since 1988-90. A victory would equal the West Point record for wins in a season, owned by the 1996 team that went 10-2.
"It's a challenge for us, playing a great team like San Diego State, but exciting to have that opportunity," Monken said. "It's something that we're certainly conscious of."

Back in late November/early December, we set about the task of brainstorming ideas for January at the Children's Library. Brittany suggested "Jamuary," and I liked it right away, but it really didn't knock my socks off. BUT then all sorts of stars aligned and Jamuary has been one of the funnest themes we've had so far.
Changing topics for a minute! See the Jamuary lettering and small music notes? They're easier to see on the picture below this paragraph. Those are all individually cut – even the little stripey-parts of the font. It took less than ten minutes. You want to know how? I splurged and bought myself a Silhouette printer for my Hafuboti business since it could save time on cutting paper. It's been a blast to use at the library too. We may be approaching our Friends to see if they'll buy us the larger version the next time that they go on sale (usually around Christmas, but I'll keep my eyes peeled). And no, Silhouette's not paying me anything to advertise here – I'm just really pleased with the product.
Back to Jamuary!
What initially got me excited about it is when we were brainstorming this Jennifer, our new Children's Librarian, had yet to start working with us. When Jennifer and I started brainstorming ideas (yes, we do a lot of brainstorming at our library) for the winter storytime session theme, she came to me with "Story Jam." What?! My jaw dropped when she suggested that, and I explained that we'd been thinking of calling January "Jamuary." At that point, when things like that come together, I feel it unwise to ignore the universe's apparent urging.
The image above is of a ukulele – there's a reason for that. Throughout November I had been trying to find someone to accompany me musically during a family sing-along storytime in December, and was failing at finding someone. When I came across this blog post by Tess Goldwasser, and I thought to myself "hey, I played the flute seriously for most of my primary school years, so I think I can do this." I also thought of my favorite music teachers when I was younger, and none of them focused on the piano. My most favorite was the teacher with the autoharp (turns out that autoharps are expensive).
I wasted no time and ordered a ukulele. After doing so I mentioned it to Mary whose response would set us on an exciting musical course. She said, "I want to play the ukulele!" And it was like lightning had struck: what if we formed a band? I asked Brittany and she expressed excitement at the prospect. Then I asked my Library Director if she'd be behind us forming a ukulele band. She was! I sought out other interested staff members and then put forth a proposal to our Friends group for them to purchase the ukuleles and some other supplies for us. They approved it a few days later, and thus our ukulele band (yet to be named) was formed.
Our little band (who have just now begun focused practicing), has garnered a lot of interest. We've had a local paper cover us – front page y'all, and the Nebraska Library Association's quarterly newsletter will be running an article on us in February. Plus, these instruments fit in perfectly with our Jamuary theme! To motivate our practicing, we're having Jam Day on January 31st where patrons may request any song from our playlist and we'll stop everything and play for them. We're also having a very special musical storytime that day where we'll be performing.
On a side note: can I tell you how much I love my ukulele? She's purple and sparkly. Her name is Stardust (after Carl Sagan, Lawrence Krauss, Neil Gaiman – husband of the awesome ukulele-playing Amanda Palmer, and Fletcher Hanks). She usually hangs out at my desk at work, and whenever I get frustrated or overwhelmed I've taken to picking her up and practicing for a few minutes. It's one of the best stress-relief instruments (bad pun intended) I've ever used.
Back – again – to Jamuary!
We weren't quite sure where to go with the decor for the month. I knew that I didn't want dangly things since we'd just had them in December and would likely have them in February. And then I saw this on Pinterest, which made me think of this, and I approached Mary with the idea of doing character silhouettes in our windows. We had several debates on how to do it, and ultimately decided to go all-black with music notes floating around the characters.
As Mary would complete characters, she'd hold them up, and they looked really neat (if a bit warped from the black paint curling the paper). It wasn't until she started taping them up that I saw how freaking gorgeous they are.
I love them, and I might actually cry when we take them down for February. They are one of my favorite things we've done decor-wise so far. I mean, they're clean, elegant, and so dramatic. You can't really see them when you're approaching the library to come inside during the day. It's once you're inside that they seem to magically appear. And the kids so far have loved them once they realize what Mary has done.
Brittany took on our Great Wall of Pun and came up with "These Books Rock" featuring books about rocks, minerals, etc. She didn't tell me what she was doing with the display – she just went and blew my mind. She used this font from dafont.com and then colored them in using crayons.
That's crayons, y'all. And there's more. What she colored wasn't random – oh no. Each letter is made to look like a different gem or mineral which she made a reference sheet for us to use if anyone asks.
Also, it makes me think of Breaking Bad, which makes this display one of my favorite Great Wall of Pun displays. "They're MINERALS, Marie!"
We actually have even MORE as part of Jamuary, but this post is already quite long. Furthermore, it ties into our first-ever Winter Reading Program which we're calling Reading Rocks. Yes, this theme has gone wild. I will definitely be covering our Winter Reading Program soon. I also have so much more to share about what's been going on at our library. I'm extremely excited about how this year's shaping up – we've definitely hit the ground running!

The Other: Book Review
Author: Thomas Tryon
Published in 1971
Since I don't have a recent book to review for today, I thought I'd discuss a classic. "The Other," written by an actor-turned-author, is a fantastically written supernatural thriller with great twists and wonderful atmosphere.
Twins Niles and Holland Perry live on a sprawling farm in 1930's Connecticut. Their grandmother has taught them to transport themselves into other's minds, in order to imagine what can be seen through their eyes. One hot summer, strange things begin to happen surrounding them: family members die violently, objects vanish, and sanity dissolves as the twins' secrets drive the Perry family to ruin.
What really makes the novel fascinating is the evocation of place. Tryon brings the Perry farm to life fully, through beautiful prose and extreme detail. It's easy to be lost in the world the novel creates – it's romantic, peaceful, and at times eerie beyond belief. The characters are given the same care, each one fully fleshed and visualized. "The Other" pulled me into its universe, and I loved every moment I spent there. This intense illustration makes it all the more terrifying, then, when Tryon introduces the horror behind the charming veneer. And there is plenty of horror that shows its head by the end.
The story takes turn after turn into ultimate darkness. Most of the novel is very quietly creepy, but the morbidity of some moments shocked me. The twists are sprinkled throughout, coming at the most unexpected moments. Some may see them coming from a mile away, but I always found myself taken by surprise. As a thriller, "The Other" is marvelous.
I'm surprised to find that "The Other" isn't mentioned more when discussing horror classics. It's a fantastic novel, with great characters and plot turns. Though it's short, it is completely involving and at times, even brilliant. I recommend it, and put it high on my list of favorite horror stories.

Over-Capitalisation: Definition, Causes and Effects !
Over-capitalisation signifies a situation when an enterprise possesses excess of assets in relation to its requirement. Such a situation has its bearing on earning capacity of the enterprise. In case of over-capitalisation, the actual earnings are lower than the expected ones. On account of lower rates of return, the enterprise becomes unable to pay its fixed obligations, i.e. interest and dividend, at prescribed rates. Thus, in case of over-capitalisation, the enterprise fails to pay a fair return on its capital investments. This point is more clarified with the help of the following example.
Suppose, Cachar Paper Mill, Panchgram (Assam) earned an annual profit of Rs. 50,000 on its total capital investment of Rs. 5, 00,000. If the expectation for return is 10%, this mill will be called properly capitalised. But, if the mill earns a profit of Rs. 40,000 only as against the general expectation of 10%, it will be said to be over-capitalised because it will be in a position to give a return of 8% on its capital investments or capital employed.
Thus, an enterprise is said to be over-capitalised when its earnings are not large enough to yield a fair return on its capital employed, i.e., on the amounts of shares and bonds. Now, one important question arises is what causes over-capitalisation in an enterprise? We turn to answer this question in the following paragraphs.
Causes of Over-Capitalisation:
An enterprise may become over-capitalised due to both internal and external factors.
Following are the important reasons causing over-capitalisation in an enterprise:
1. Raising of more money by issue of shares and debentures than what the enterprise can profitably use.
2. Borrowing of large money at a rate of interest fairly higher than- the actual rate of return on its capital employed.
3. Acquiring fixed assets on excessive amounts.
4. Inadequate provisions for depreciation and replacement of fixed assets.
5. Payment of dividend at a fairly high rate.
6. High rates of taxation imposed by the Government.
7. Over-estimation of earnings for enterprise concern.
Since causes bear effects, let us also look at the evil effects of over-capitalisation.
Evil effects of Over-Capitalisation:
Over-capitalisation has the following evil effects on owners, enterprises, and society:
1. On Owners:
Because of a fall on dividends, the shareholders/owners lose heavily. Further, the owners are not in a position to dispose of their shares at profitable prices due to fall in the market value of their shares. Thus, the owners are the biggest losers in case of over-capitalisation of an enterprise.
2. On Enterprise:
In over-capitalisation, the market value of the enterprise's stock falls and it finds difficult to raise capital. Quite often, the enterprises resort to window dressing with questionable practices. But, this only aggravates the evil of over-capitalisation. The credit worthiness of the enterprise is adversely affected.
3. On Society:
Over-capitalised enterprises often come to societal rejection. Society gradually withdraws its acceptance to the products produced by such enterprises. No wonder, the enterprises go into liquidation in course of time. Closer or liquidation of enterprises causes losses to society in terms of production, employment, wastage of resources, etc.
Remedies for Over-Capitalisation:
In order to rectify over-capitalisation, the enterprise may resort to the following remedies:
1. To reduce the claims of shareholders, debenture-holders and creditors.
2. To reduce rate of interest on debentures and the rate of dividend on preference shares.
3. To reduce the number of equity shares.
4. If possible, to reduce the par value of stock.
These all remedial measures leave sufficient funds with the enterprise. The enterprise can make use of these funds for the purposes of replacement of assets and expansion of business activity. These, in turn, help in increasing the earning capacity of the company and, thus, rectifying over-capitalisation in the enterprise.

This paper undertakes a comparison between different specifications proposed in earlier research. The models are used to estimate the technical efficiency of 15 Colombian cement plants observed in the period 1968-1988. The efficiency scores and the time path of efficiency are found to vary substantially across models. ©1997 Elsevier Science B.V.

A little while ago I bought a small bundle of w7 polishes because: they were cute; I'd never tried w7 before; and they were very cheap at $2.99AUD a bottle. w7 is a UK budget beauty brand and I'm keeping within my comfort zone of trying their nail polish range first. Lava Flow is from w7's Sprinkle range and is a milky white polish sprinkled (obviously) with a smattering of red and dark blue glitter. I applied two easy coats and then fell in love with this fun manicure. My last posted mani was described as "fierce" - well this one is just plain fun!
Until next time!

Canadian Police Are Expecting More Arrests After Legalization
Canadian police say they're expecting to pull over large amounts of cannabis-impaired drivers after the country's legal market opens up.
Canadian police say they're expecting to pull over large amounts of cannabis-impaired drivers after the country's legal market opens up.
With about a month left to go until Canada's federal adult-use cannabis system comes online, Canadian police are saying that they're actually anticipating more cannabis-related arrests after legalization, due to their increased efforts to stop citizens from driving while high and other such offenses.
Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has set Oct. 17 as the date when cannabis legalization will take effect in the country. While the industry is anticipating a boom, there are growing ominous signs that legalization may in some ways paradoxically mean less freedom for individual tokers. For example, Trudeau's promised expungement of prior cannabis-related criminal records does not appear to be imminent, and U.S. immigration authorities say they will treat Canadians involved in the legal industry as "traffickers."
The Vancouver Courier this week presents us with the disconcerting headline, "Pot legalization will mean more work for police in BC." The newspaper quoted Eric Stubbs, the assistant commissioner for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) in British Columbia, saying, "It's not going to be less work because it's legalized. It's going to be more."
Stubbs particularly cited an anticipated increase in driving under the influence of cannabis and insinuated an imminent crackdown.
"We have a new, robust program on hand to spot impaired drivers," he said. "We certainly have to be ready for it."
The question of cannabis-impaired driving is a complicated one, but Canadian lawmakers have given the country's police a sweeping law aimed at suppressing it. This is Bill C-46, which was passed by the Canadian government over the summer in response to the passage of C-45, the Canadian Cannabis Act. Under C-46, motorists with two to five nanograms of THC per milliliter of blood will face fines of up to $2,000 Canadian dollars. Drivers exceeding the five-nanogram limit, or with both THC and alcohol in their systems, could actually face 10 years in prison.
But Rob De Luca, director of the Canadian Civil Liberties Association's public safety program, protested to the Washington Post that "the link between THC levels and impairment is quite loose."
Bill C-46 will also give police the power to stop any driver they reasonably suspect is under the influence of cannabis. As the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation notes, previously this just applied to alcohol. But because studies suggest that cannabis does not cause loss of motor control as alcohol does, typically causing erratic driving such as weaving. This means that it is unclear what criteria police will use to make a determination about when a motorist can be stopped on suspicion of cannabis use.
Even before C-46 was passed, some of Canada's provinces were instating their own laws to crack down on cannabis use on the roads. Under Nova Scotia's cannabis regulations, those deemed to be high behind the wheel could face a $10,000 fine. As the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation noted, the law also makes it illegal for anyone other than the Nova Scotia Liquor Corp. to sell cannabis in the province. Violators of that provision will face a fine of up to $25,000. Those who purchase from anyone other than the NSLC may be fined $250.
Meanwhile, the federal cannabis laws in Canada will allow those over 18 to possess up to 30 grams of legally-produced cannabis, and allow adults to grow up to four plants per household. But the provinces have been given broad leeway to instate their own regulations — including prohibitions on cultivation — creating a confusing policy patchwork.
One promise of Canadian legalization was that those previously convicted of possessing cannabis in the quantities covered by the new law would have their records expunged. However, in January, the Trudeau government made clear such an "amnesty" would not be instated until after the federal government's legalization framework is in place. A measure introduced by the left-opposition New Democratic Party to instate an immediate amnesty failed when Trudeau's Liberals voted against it.
"That's not an item that's on the agenda at the moment," the administration's Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale told Macleans.
According to the Macleans report, in 2016 (the last year data was available), 58 percent of all police-reported charges related to Canada's Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (about 55,000) specifically concerned to cannabis — and of those offenses, some three-quarters were for simple possession. Under current law, those convicted of a "summary possession" offense (meaning under 30 grams) must wait five years to apply for expungement under the Criminal Records Act, assuming all outstanding sentences have been completed. Of course, under the new Cannabis Act, possessing that quantity will be legal for adults.
Then, there's the response to Canadian legalization from U.S. authorities — which, as one might imagine, has been unhelpful in the extreme. Apparently, Canadians who work in the cannabis industry — or even those who merely invest in it — could face a lifetime ban on travel to the United States
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency will continue to apply standing laws and regulations that treat cannabis as a prohibited substance, and those involved in the cannabis industry as drug traffickers who are inadmissible for entry into the country. This is according to Todd Owen, executive assistant commissioner for CBP's Office of Field Operations, speaking to Politico this week.
"Our officers are not going to be asking everyone whether they have used marijuana, but if other questions lead there — or if there is a smell coming from the car, they might ask," Owen told Politico. And cannabis residue, which can linger for weeks inside an automobile, could be detected by CBP inspection dogs and lead to further questioning, he stated.
"If you lie about it, that's fraud and misrepresentation, which carries a lifetime ban," Owen said.
TELL US, do you think legalization should include decriminalization?

Stressed and confused
Hi everyone I am very new to home schooling! I am schooling my DS (6th Gr) and I am completely lost I signed up for time4learning thinking the lesson plan would be layed out there for me and it is not I have no idea how many lessons to give him so I sat him down and said just do the first chapter in each category. He was done with everything in less than 2 hrs and that even included quizes and test. I have no idea how to integrate vocab words or spelling into his day or where to even find those words. I dont know how to organize this and it's stressing my 7 person family out to the max. please someone give me guidence or a link to somewhere that just lays it all out for me. Hope I'm not to overwhelming I just don't know where to turn. Thanks in advance for any help.
P.s. just a little history Homeschooling was not a choice for so I have had no time to research and think it through. My son has touretts and ADHD and Depresion, he was thrown out of school for taking a toy gun to school. Our only options where to send him to a alternitive school or home school and with the choice of home school they agreed not to put the incident on his permanent record. Thanks again for listening
First go pour yourself a cup of tea or coffee. Relax a bit and then read through some of the forums while you sip your tea. Start by looking at how many activities there are in each subject. Go to the Parent Login. On the right side of the page you will see Lesson Plans. Click on that for sixth grade and then click on each subject. Divide that number by the number of days that you plan to do school during the year. That is how many activities he should do in that subject each day. Two hours is probably about right for a sixth grader. Remember that while he was in school he spent a lot of time waiting. He had to wait for recess, wait for lunch, wait for the slower kids to catch up, wait for assembly, wait and wait and wait. Now he only has to wait for you so he will finish the day a lot faster than he did in school. For spelling you can get lists from Vocabulary and Spelling City. Add spelling in wherever you want in your day. There are some great games on that site for him as well. A good place to look for guidance would be the Welcome To Homeschooling Guide. Join the Kentucky Parent Forum. There you will be able to meet other families in Kentucky. They will also have more knowledge of Kentucky laws than I have. You might also want to join the 6th through 8th grade forum. Feel free to stop back often and ask any questions that you might have.Kathi Homeschooling Mama to Twelve year old Dakota

Hi Lauren, first time homeschooling can be overwhelming, u just dont know where to start or what to do. We all experienced that.
Just sit tight and relax a bit. We are here to help you. You can have your son do a lesson or two a day from T4L.
Then add supplement of anything u want. Spellingcity is the best place for spelling/vocabulary.
You can organize ur day by making a lesson plan. Can be made using a word doc, a calendar, notebook? Its up to you which way u want.
For me i organize by using a word doc, a lesson or two per subject, i create a lesson plan per week, we follow it day by day, and it works for us. Ive been doing it for the last 3 years now.
But before u start, make sure u create a letter of intent that u r homeschooling ur child, address it to ur nearest school superintendent.
When i first started homeschooling i sent mine mid nov. And never had any problem with my school district, never asked why the letter was so late.

Hi, I know I wasn't the one who asked the question, but thank you for the answer, this really helped me, but just one more question.....is activities same as one star completed?
Not necessarily. Each time you click on one of the circles it is an activity. I was just looking at one of my son's math pages. When you click on the star it goes to another screen with three circles and then a quiz. Each one of those things is an activity. So within that star there are four activities.Kathi Homeschooling Mama to Twelve year old Dakota
Hi Lauren,
The beauty of homeschooling is that you can take your time. I know we keep saying for you to relax, but truly that is the best thing you can do right now. If you are stressed, your son will pick up on this.
Here is info about spelling:
Lesson activity numbers for the spelling lessons can be found by logging in as a parent and accessing the lesson plans. Spelling lessons are located within the language arts extensions:
Sixth Grade - Chapter 9
Every third lesson, the student is given a quiz over the words in the preceding three lessons. The results of these quizzes can be found in your student's reports. The results of the tests taken within each spelling lesson are for the student's information only.
Many parents use the free SpellingCity site to supplement their child's spelling study. Vocabulary and handwriting help can also be found there. On SpellingCity, the lists for Time4Learning lessons can be found here. Students can use these lists to play games with their spelling words, practice, test... If you choose to have your student take a weekly spelling test at SpellingCity, the results are printable, either in report or certificate form. If you choose a premium membership, the program will keep track of your student's activity and test scores online.Joyfully,

Users of cloud storage services such as Drop Box and Box are inadvertently leaking tax returns, mortgage applications, bank information and personal photos online.
According to the International Business Times, the revelation has come from cloud storage company Intralinks, which has discovered that a flaw in the sharing system employed by Dropbox and Box means that links shared with specific people are easily accessible by third-parties.
Drop Box has said in a blog post that it has taken steps to address the issue and is unaware of any abuse due to the vulnerability. The post also said that users don't need to take any further action.
"We realise that many of your workflows depend on shared links, and we apologise for the inconvenience. We'll continue working hard to make sure your stuff is safe and keep you updated on any new developments."
It admitted that "shared links to documents can be inadvertently disclosed to unintended recipients" in the following scenario: A user shares a link to a document that contains a hyperlink to a third-party website; the user, or an authorised recipient of the link, clicks on a hyperlink in the document; at that point, the referrer header discloses the original shared link to the third-party website or someone with access to that header, such as the webmaster of the third-party website, could then access the link to the shared document.
According to the BBC, security researcher Graham Cluley said identity thieves could use the method to "scoop up" data.
"I think these services need to be more upfront with warnings," he said.
However he added that the problem was not a security flaw as such, but instead an unexpected consequence of user behaviour.

Sing a Rebel Song (Omnibus Books 2015)
It's 1891 and one of the most dramatic events in Australia's history is taking place in western Queensland: the Shearers' Strike. The closest Australia ever came to outright civil war, when workers rebelled against the employment conditions laid down by landowners.
Twelve-year-old Maggie McAllister and her family are caught up in the struggle between unionists, the landowners and the government.
Torchlight protest marches and violent confrontations in the streets, woolsheds and property fired, the arrest of union leaders at gunpoint. Maggie plays a part in no small way herself. But her friends do not see things the same way, and for Maggie, singing a rebel song may have heartbreaking consequences.

The 7th annual RNLI Park Fest has now come and gone, a weekend like no other where the committee and crew got greyer and older by the second, wondering what the weather was going to do on Friday and how much devastation would be left in its wake. In true Park Fest fashion though everyone pulled together and bar a couple of puddles at either end of the marquee, that were soon dealt with by a trusty bilge pump courtesy of Dumfries and Galloway council, the show was on and ready to go.
Young Guns night saw Jessica Harrison, Caution By The Monumental Goose, Delphi, Scope and Arcadium turn out performances that had many saying it was the best line up of talent since the inception of the event. Sadly due to illness Amie Kirkpatrick from Dumfries couldn't make it along to perform and everyone involved with Park Fest wishes her a speedy recovery.
Main day started with 'Haeniacs' queuing at the door to get the best spot for the long day ahead and credit to them they took in all the festival had to offer for the nine and a half hour wait till their favourite appeared on stage. Along the way though they found some emerging talent they liked too (and no this wasn't just our compère's Ali and Lee). A strong and very loud start to the day was ushered in by Chopperhead, belting out fast paced rock at half past twelve on a Saturday afternoon certainly let everyone in Stranraer know that Park Fest 2016 had started. The afternoon ebbed and flowed with the relaxed styling's of local girls Rachel Reid, Caitlin McCornick and Lorna McColm mixed with the ever professional Freefall and eclectic mix of rock, blues and jazz from The Black Art Babas. Last minute stand ins Novantae bought themselves a new group of fans with and outstanding set of original material and begged the question will they return to main day evening slots in the near future?
The afternoon session was brought to an emotional close by a very full stage with the final ever performance by The Elastic Band and what a set it was. It had the potential to go two ways, One- too many people on the stage and it doesn't work or Two- give the performance of their lives in memory of their sorely missed band mate Quintin Goodall who passed away earlier this year, for anyone with any doubts it was the latter.
Any sorrowful cobwebs were soon blown away with The Samba Sisters taking on the break entertainment with two 40 minute sets of Samba And Brazilian drumming.
With a strong evening session brought by Glasgow band Broken Boy and Park Fest favourites the boys from Belfast- The Late Twos, the ever increasing audience numbers were given a great build up from these emerging acts as they lead to them to the headline act.
Now booking a former X Factor winner to headline can be seen as a risky manoeuvre, how will ticket sales go? will people enjoy the performance? could this mark the end for big names at the little festival with a big heart?
So Ben Haenow 2014 X Factor Winner had agreed to appear on our stage, much contract negotiations took place, toing and froing with agents, booking flights, adhering to contractual obligations and what happens? Up turns Ben and his brother Alex two of the nicest, easy going guys you are ever going to meet. Nothing was an issue to them. They loved the hospitality and welcome they received and this is before they have even made it to the stage.
At this point lets think of the 'Haniacs' traveling from deepest Swindon and other parts of the UK (Sorry can't remember where they all said they were from) and even in one case France!! They lined up at the front of the stage patiently waiting for their idol to appear. Now our compères love playing with the crowd and can occasionally wind them up, this is exactly what they decided to do building the crowd by giving a running countdown till Ben's appearance, teasing them with fake introductions and getting them practicing chants.
With Lee's X Factor style introduction Ben started a forty minute strong set, joined at one point by his brother on guitar treating the crowd to some acoustic numbers. To say he had the crowd in the palm of his hand is an understatement, he was like the pied piper with people of all ages dancing, swaying and singing along to a highly polished performance filled with cheeky grins and even a Beyonce bum shake.
The night was finished off by local band The Dangleberries and their always impressive electric and bagpiped rock mix. The crowd were bouncing, in fact at one point I think the tent was bouncing too.
So many people to thank, if I miss someone sorry.
Our RNLI Crew, committee, hostesses, lighting and sound guys, hi vis helpers, Wags (and Shurdie), stage crew, security, merchandise and ticket girls, photographer Pete Robinson and each every other volunteer that gave their time to help us out I thank you all.
Also to the various media that have supported us over the years DGWGO, the Stranraer and Wigtownshire Free Press, Dumfries and Galloway Life, The Galloway Gazette, Small Town Sounds and Alive radio you get us out there for the world to see, thank you for sharing our releases and information.
Was the festival a success??? Yes. Are we doing it again next year??? You bet. Will there be another big name headliner??? Pass but we will do our very best.
From all of us at Park Fest to all of you who attended, come back next year, bring your friends and families and we will endeavour to put on the best show we possibly can to keep you coming back year after year.

Expert Social Media Marketing For Your Business
If your best friend told you to call a particular business because of the service or product they offered, the chances of you calling that business are pretty good, especially if you are interested in what the company has to offer.
As a business owner, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and YouTube can be your best friends… or your worst enemies. While most business owners recognize the potential of social media to advertise their products and services, staying current on the latest technology and platforms can be time-consuming and confusing.
Social Media Marketing (SMM) refers to the process of gaining website traffic or attention through social media sites such as the ones listed above. Social networking platforms allow individuals to interact with one another and establish relationships. When businesses and organizations join these social platforms, potential consumers can interact with them. Where this interaction becomes important for a business is that social media marketing strategies typically involve creating content that draws attention and encourages readers to share it with their various social networks. An example is a corporate message that spreads exponentially from user to user because it originates with a trusted, third-party source, as opposed to the brand or company itself. This form of marketing is driven by word-of-mouth, also referred to as "earned media" (rather than paid media). This type of marketing is the "you tell two friends, they tell two friends, they tell two friends" phenomenon, only with much more technology involved.
Social Media Marketing is a platform that is easily accessible to anyone with Internet access. Increased communication for organizations and businesses – via platforms like Facebook and Twitter – raises brand visibility. Not only is SMM a relatively inexpensive way to advertise, it is a great way to build top-of-mind awareness in potential consumers as well as implement effective marketing campaigns through promoting such things as special offers, coupons, and unique events.
Newell Ledbetter Advertising offers social media management strategies that strengthen and support our clients' overall marketing plans. We build likes! We handle all of our clients' social media so they can focus on what they do best – running their business and serving their customers. We make sure our clients have relevant posts on their social media platforms and blogs to create and maintain authority in their business category.

Doctors say it's time for your summer physical
'What's going around' report finds summer is typically a slow season for doctors
JACKSONVILLE, Fla – Summer is not the busiest time for doctors. In fact, many say the summer is their slowest season. People tend to just seem to cope with their own health problems. We talked with a doctor who said it's actually a good time to get a routine check up.
"Most people are out on vacation, enjoying themselves, they're able to handle illnesses better with colds and stuff because the weather is nicer," says Dr. Reetu Grewal.
Viruses don't replicate in the summer like they do in the winter. Therefore, people are less likely to get sick. According to Grewal at UF Health Baymeadows even when they do the illness is less severe. But the one thing you don't want to skip this summer is your physical.
"The worst thing we have is the week before school and we can't fit patients in for their physical so now's a good time, we're not busy, come on in," says Grewal.
Even if you don't have any health problems you shouldn't ignore your yearly physical. It allows doctors to build a history of your health.
"It's more of a time for us to council patients on being healthy and also to catch things. We may find out stuff about their previous medical history or their family history that will be important for them later on that we often don't ask when they come in for a sick visit," says Grewal.

The biggest security concerns for the coming year will be cyber-sabotage and cyber-espionage, say industry experts.
They cite the success of the Stuxnet worm in attacking industrial control systems as a prime example of what to expect in 2011.
Other predictions include a rise in sophisticated malware, Wikileaks-style breaches and a focus on mobile.
But Stuxnet type attacks top the list of forthcoming fears after the success it had interfering with Iran's nuclear power generation efforts.
In November, Iran's president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad confirmed that Stuxnet had hit its target.
"They succeeded in creating problems for a limited number of our centrifuges with the software they had installed in electronic parts," Mr Ahmadinejad told a news conference.
Sharing the headlines with Stuxnet were the hack attacks carried out by supporters of whistle-blowing website Wikileaks. In late 2010, Wikileaks began releasing some of a cache of 250,000 leaked US diplomatic cables.
Another top target in 2011 is likely to mobile phones, which are increasingly being turned into virtual wallets and being used in the workplace.More...

Taking a look at the health headlines this afternoon, I'm struck again by how much information is really disinformation, misinformation, and my personal favorite, uninformation (e.g. exercise is good! try to quit smoking! eat healthy!).
Every day, I see the most sensational (but worthless), the most inaccurate, and the most outdated health information disseminated. Question the "holy grails" of health and suffer the wrath of so-called experts (who are often no better informed than you). The holy grails I challenge:
– Is type 2 diabetes a disease or a natural response to a toxic diet?
– Is cholesterol the cause of heart disease, or the body's desperate attempt to repair damage?
– Why rely on the BMI – are there better indicators of physical fitness and healthy weight?
– Do we really need 8, or 10, or 12 glasses of water daily – or should we drink when we're thirsty?
– Is milk fit for human consumption? How about grains? Why did these get the "perfect food" labels?
– Is our diet really providing all the nutrients we need?
The Onion [1]
Consider one typical path of health information for a moment:
– A study is performed which may or may not be funded by a company or special interest hoping for a certain result.
– Scientists may or may not find the results that were desired, and may or may not present those results in an accurate way (if you're a lab tech at the FDA, chances are good that you've been threatened, warned, or cajoled for attempting to do your job).
– The company or special interest releases this "news" in a particular way, and the media may or may not do background digging to determine the accuracy, fairness, or potential bias inherent in the release.
– Our own biases, background and desires filter how we interpret and accept or reject the news, which may or may not be accurate news to begin with.
– The government may or may not look out for the truth. The FDA is replete with ex-Pharma pros and the federal legislature is inundated with special interest dollars and deals. Though the government is supposed to look out for public health, I'd argue that public servants actually have less incentive to be honest or ethical than average citizens, because reelection is often tied to perception of results, not actual results. Fail, and you can spin it. If a businessperson fails, it's hard to spin your way out of that – you failed, period. There are consequences.
Where are the consequences for the FDA or pharmaceutical companies? Theoretically, legislation and lawsuits "protect" the consumer, but I don't see that these things have yielded measurable improvement. Sure, Big Puff shelled out a boatload of cash in the '90s in class-action suits, but behind our backs, at the very same time, the very same tobacco companies were increasing the nicotine levels in cigarettes. If that's not spite…
Who has a vested interest in Americans being sick, overweight, and unhealthy? With 74% of us overweight, and serious health issues like cancer, heart disease, diabetes and hypertension skyrocketing and leaving other industrialized nations in the dust, we are quite literally a sick nation.
It ain't just Kentucky, folks. Clearly, individuals are not benefiting – so who is? Who would stand to benefit from addiction, sickness, and ignorance?
I'm not a conspiracy theorist (and do they ever drive me nuts). On the contrary, I think the most obvious, logical explanation is usually the correct one. So, I'm not suggesting a group of old men with an affinity for expensive cigars cooked up a massive plot to enslave and profit from innocent Joes and Janes. They didn't have to.
It's plain as day, and really, it's just biology: humans become quickly habituated, even addicted, to what is pleasurable and requires the least effort (enter fast food and huge portions). We're hardwired for feast-or-famine. Problem is, these days, it's feast all the time.
Humans also like to find a way to make money to acquire even more pleasurable things. We do this quite well, usually by supplying something other humans are demanding (enter pharmaceuticals).
Built for survival and having learned through trial and error that passing up pleasure is a bad idea (hey, it might be a week before another juicy goat carcass pops up), humans tend to stick with activities that reinforce pleasurable feelings, and we tend to go for shortcuts – this is all built into our biology. It worked when we had to haul that goat carcass across the savannah back to our hole in the ground where our young were – hopefully – waiting, if they hadn't been devoured by a passing lion. It doesn't work so well now. Although, it's certainly working for someone.
We're feasting our brains out, with very predictable results: obesity, sickness, disease, depression.
So, who can benefit from taking responsibility, becoming as informed as possible, making conscious decisions congruent with your beliefs and knowledge, and actively pursuing good health?
You, that's who.
You are the only one who is truly responsible for your own health – being a victim is not a modus operandi that does anyone any good. Period.

Haas F1 Team and COTA Serve as Cornerstones for F1
Haas F1 Team will make its debut in the FIA Formula 1 World Championship in 2016, becoming the first American-led Formula One team in 30 years. With its headquarters in Kannapolis, North Carolina, located adjacent to Haas' title-winning NASCAR Sprint Cup Series team, Haas F1 Team serves as another pillar for Formula One in the United States.
The first pillar is Circuit of the Americas, the exquisite 20-turn, 5.513-kilometer (3.426-mile) road course in Austin, Texas, that plays host to this weekend's United States Grand Prix, Round No. 16 on the 19-race Formula One schedule.
"As an American team, having an F1 race on American soil is incredibly important," Haas said. "In four months, we'll be testing our car in Barcelona. In five months, we'll be on the grid in Australia. A year from now, we'll be racing in our home country, hopefully having scored some points and proving that we can hold our own with the established teams of Formula One."
Before Haas F1 Team was officially announced in April 2014, Formula One was already gaining a strong foothold in the United States thanks to Circuit of the Americas, the country's first purpose-built Formula One venue.
The track's inaugural race came on Nov. 18, 2012. Lewis Hamilton won, with Sebastian Vettel winning in 2013 before Hamilton won again in 2014. In that 2013 race at Circuit of the Americas, a Frenchman named Romain Grosjean finished a career-best second. Nearly a month ago, Grosjean was named Haas F1 Team's first driver.
"When you're sitting there dicing it up with the 10 or 15 cars that are right next to you, he holds his ground, doesn't give up anything, and usually he's able to pull ahead of whoever he's with," Haas said of Grosjean, who has competed in 79 Formula One races and scored 10 podium finishes, with the most recent being a third-place result in August at the Belgian Grand Prix. "Those are the kind of attributes that for a driver are very, very important. Plus, he scores points."
Haas believes scoring points on the racetrack will score international market share for Haas Automation, the CNC machine tool company Haas founded in 1983 and has since grown into a billion-dollar company.
"From an international standpoint, Formula One is the highest echelon of racing, and Haas Automation builds the highest-quality machine tools," Haas said. "When you hear 'F1' you know exactly what it is – a global racing series that showcases the latest technology and attracts the best talent in engineering and design. Haas Automation has an excellent reputation in the United States and I want that reputation to grow worldwide. Connecting Haas Automation with F1 in name and in practice is the best way to grow our business and elevate Haas Automation to a premium, global brand."
Haas knows the challenges of being a first-time Formula One team owner, and America's limited history in Formula One places Haas F1 Team under an even greater microscope. But in addition to building Haas Automation, Haas has built a championship-winning NASCAR team and Windshear, one of the most advanced wind tunnels in the world. He is no stranger to entrepreneurship and innovation.
"I think when Gene decided to do this, he wanted to be efficient," said Guenther Steiner, team principal, Haas F1 Team. "He has done all these projects, but never just by buying it. He's very determined that he's going to get this done.
"He's got his own work ethic, and it's incredibly strong. In everything he's done, he's asked, 'How can we do this different and not just different, but more efficient?' It's incredible what Gene has achieved. And with this endeavor into Formula One, he's doing it differently, but he's also doing it smartly. Our technical partnership with Ferrari is proof of that."
Scuderia Ferrari, the most successful team in the history of Formula One with 16 constructors titles and 15 driver championships, will provide Haas F1 Team its power unit, gearbox and overall technical support. The multiyear agreement forms a strong collaboration between the two organizations that will allow Haas F1 Team to be competitive in its inaugural season and in the years following.
"There is no team in Formula One more accomplished than Scuderia Ferrari, and no team with more history. They've been a part of Formula One from the beginning, and now they'll be a part of Haas F1 Team's beginning," Haas said. "Aligning Haas F1 Team with such a tenured and successful company in Scuderia Ferrari provides our team with the greatest opportunity for success in 2016 and beyond."
The United States Grand Prix weekend kicks off today with two practice sessions at 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. EDT, which will air live on NBCSN. NBCSN will also broadcast Saturday's final practice and qualifying beginning at 12:30 p.m. Live coverage for Sunday's race begins at 2:30 p.m. on NBC.

Dads and daughters
Buzz Baby is a column about babies from the perspective of a mom of three, including twin toddlers and a newborn.
In addition to our boy, Cash, we have two daughters now – Lila, Cash's twin, who is almost 3, and Georgia, who was born in January.
I love watching my husband, Tyler, brush Lila's hair and pick out baby dolls with her. He rocks at being a "girl dad," especially considering he has little experience, with two brothers and no sisters. He has even mastered putting bows in Lila's hair.
This month we celebrate Father's Day, so I thought it would be fun to hear from other Buzz-area men about what it's like to be a dad to a girl.
Will Klinke, principal at Total Wealth Partners, became a first-time father a little earlier than he and his wife, Justine, had planned. Justine, who is vice president of real estate investments and development for Forestar Group Inc., was pregnant with identical-twin girls in 2015. The girls decided to come very early, at 24 weeks and 2 days, on Nov. 18, 2015. Collier weighed in at just 1 pound, 6 ounces, and Palmer weighed in at only 1 ounce more. They were called micro-preemies, and they lived in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Texas Children's Hospital for six months.
It was a bumpy ride full of tears and surgeries, and Will said he remembers the day doctors delivered good news. "I can remember the day that we were told [the girls] would, in fact, be coming home to us. It was only a matter of when."
Many new fathers spend the early days on the couch at home, swaddling and changing diapers. Will's experience was vastly different. "I can remember the countless days and nights in the NICU, staring at numbers flashing on a monitor," said Will. "[There were] times when we weren't sure if God had picked the right parents for them. It has been a trying experience, but it is also something so phenomenal that words can't express."
The girls came home on the same day, on April 12, 2016. They have grown so much since then and are happy and healthy. "It is fascinating to watch them learn and to discover the world around them," said Will, "particularly when their first six months were spent in the hospital."
His favorite moment as a dad may seem insignificant to others. "Earlier this year, I had been out of town for one day. It was one of the longest times since the girls had been born that I was away from them. When I got home, they were crawling around in our den and Justine was on the floor playing with them. I shouted, "Girls!" They both stopped what they were doing, and in an instant they were at my feet." Justine said that's the fastest she has ever seen the girls crawl.
Will said he enjoys making breakfast of scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage and pancakes and also making early-morning donut and coffee runs. "Our girls are not the best sleepers, but seeing them in the morning even after a rough night is a great start to the day. I'm starting to earn my stripes as a short-order cook."
Another dad, Tom McDonald, enjoys a simple yet special tradition with his girls. McDonald, owner of M. Chemical Co., has three daughters, twins Margo and Emily, 6, and Betsy, who is 8. Ever since Betsy was a small child, he has taken her on a "daddy-daughter" date night every Friday night. He introduced the twins to the tradition when they were toddlers, too.
Most Friday nights, Tom can be found with his three girls eating dinner at Southwell's Hamburger Grill. They stop for dessert at TCBY and finally, at Barnes and Noble to pick up their favorite books, including the full Harry Potter collection, read to them by Dad.
"It is the cutest thing to see my girls look forward to this every week," said Tom's wife, Jennifer, a calligrapher. "He also works from home – we have a guest house, which has his office – and every day after school, he comes inside for 20 minutes or so to talk to each girl about her day. He treats being a father like a privilege, not a job."
Tom said being a dad to girls has broadened his knowledge base. "My football knowledge has gone way down, but my My Little Pony knowledge has gone way up."

NGINX before 1.17.7, with certain error_page configurations, allows HTTP request smuggling, as demonstrated by the ability of an attacker to read unauthorized web pages in environments where NGINX is being fronted by a load balancer.
nginx before versions 1.15.6, 1.14.1 has a vulnerability in the ngx_http_mp4_module, which might allow an attacker to cause infinite loop in a worker process, cause a worker process crash, or might result in worker process memory disclosure by using a specially crafted mp4 file. The issue only affects nginx if it is built with the ngx_http_mp4_module (the module is not built by default) and the .mp4. directive is used in the configuration file. Further, the attack is only possible if an attacker is able to trigger processing of a specially crafted mp4 file with the ngx_http_mp4_module.
Nginx versions since 0.5.6 up to and including 1.13.2 are vulnerable to integer overflow vulnerability in nginx range filter module resulting into leak of potentially sensitive information triggered by specially crafted request.
The nginx package before 1.6.2-5+deb8u3 on Debian jessie, the nginx packages before 1.4.6-1ubuntu3.6 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, before 1.10.0-0ubuntu0.16.04.3 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, and before 1.10.1-0ubuntu1.1 on Ubuntu 16.10, and the nginx ebuild before 1.10.2-r3 on Gentoo allow local users with access to the web server user account to gain root privileges via a symlink attack on the error log.
The resolver in nginx before 1.8.1 and 1.9.x before 1.9.10 does not properly limit CNAME resolution, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (worker process resource consumption) via vectors related to arbitrary name resolution.
Use-after-free vulnerability in the resolver in nginx 0.6.18 through 1.8.0 and 1.9.x before 1.9.10 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (worker process crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted DNS response related to CNAME response processing.
The resolver in nginx before 1.8.1 and 1.9.x before 1.9.10 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid pointer dereference and worker process crash) via a crafted UDP DNS response.
nginx 0.5.6 through 1.7.4, when using the same shared ssl_session_cache or ssl_session_ticket_key for multiple servers, can reuse a cached SSL session for an unrelated context, which allows remote attackers with certain privileges to conduct "virtual host confusion" attacks.
The default configuration of nginx, possibly 1.3.13 and earlier, uses world-readable permissions for the (1) access.log and (2) error.log files, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading the files.
Use-after-free vulnerability in nginx before 1.0.14 and 1.1.x before 1.1.17 allows remote HTTP servers to obtain sensitive information from process memory via a crafted backend response, in conjunction with a client request.
Heap-based buffer overflow in compression-pointer processing in core/ngx_resolver.c in nginx before 1.0.10 allows remote resolvers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a long response.
nginx 0.8 before 0.8.40 and 0.7 before 0.7.66, when running on Windows, allows remote attackers to obtain source code or unparsed content of arbitrary files under the web document root by appending ::$DATA to the URI.
Directory traversal vulnerability in src/http/modules/ngx_http_dav_module.c in nginx (aka Engine X) before 0.7.63, and 0.8.x before 0.8.17, allows remote authenticated users to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in the Destination HTTP header for the WebDAV (1) COPY or (2) MOVE method.
src/http/ngx_http_parse.c in nginx (aka Engine X) 0.1.0 through 0.4.14, 0.5.x before 0.5.38, 0.6.x before 0.6.39, 0.7.x before 0.7.62, and 0.8.x before 0.8.14 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and worker process crash) via a long URI.
Buffer underflow in src/http/ngx_http_parse.c in nginx 0.1.0 through 0.5.37, 0.6.x before 0.6.39, 0.7.x before 0.7.62, and 0.8.x before 0.8.15 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted HTTP requests.

|This article is about a/an ranger in Power Rangers Operation Overdrive.
"Kick into Overdrive! Pink Ranger!"
Rose Ortiz is the Pink Operation Overdrive Ranger. She is a Mensa level genius with an encyclopedic knowledge regarding almost any subject, from geography to the Overdrive equipment. As she herself states, she's "never wrong."[1]
Before joining the team she was building a robot in a University lab in London, as well as writing a paper on Advanced Nuclear Robotics Science, and at Harvard she took a year in Ancient Universal Legends. She also claims she learned how to translate morse code by the age of four. Despite her high intelligence, she shows a highly casual nature and is often found chewing something. She is also a highly dangerous fighter, defeating Mig on her own in One Fine Day and doing the same with Miratrix and one of Kamdor's monsters in Pirate in Pink.
Growing up so quickly because of her high intelligence, (even skipping most of grade school, starting college at eight years old), Rose didn't have much of a childhood. She set her sights on increasing her knowledge to an extensive amount, partially because as a little girl she never felt unique or special in any way. It's her experiences as a Ranger that teach her that she's special, that she has friends who care about her, and that she can let loose once in a while and enjoy herself, even while having to save the world.
She was once transformed into a pirate, Rosie the Bold, and ended up bonding with the spectre of the pirate Brownbeard; she keeps it a secret that she loved being a pirate[2]. Rose mixed zord based technology with the Sentinel Sword to create a new armor, but stated it was not safe for humans[3]. Her new armor would later be used by Mack Hartford as his Battlizer, making him the Red Sentinel Ranger.
At the end of the series, Rose, knowing intelligence is something to be proud of, decides to go back to teaching. Her genetic power is invisibility, her primary weapon is the Drive Geyser, and she drives the Sub and Shovel Driver Zords.
Super Megaforce
Rose and the other Overdrive Rangers returned as part of the army of Legendary Rangers that helped the Mega Rangers defeat the Armada once and for all, fighting in a huge battle against hundreds of X Borgs and dozens of Bruisers. Legendary Battle
Pink Overdrive Ranger
Ranger Key
The Pink Overdrive Ranger Key is Rose's personal ranger key. This key along with the majority of the Core Ranger Keys are seen lining the Command Center's interior walls. This key is mainly used by Emma Goodall (Super Megaforce Pink) who uses it to fight as the Pink Overdrive Ranger.
- Unlike other Overdrive Rangers, whose main weapons are themed after parts of an engine, Rose's Drive Geyser is a minimized version of her Zord.
- Her given name was once used as the second possible English name of Momoko (Pink Mask), who is the Pink Ranger from the 1987 Super Sentai Series, Hikari Sentai Maskman.
- "Rose" is French and German for "Pink".
- She was originally planned to be the last Pink Ranger in franchise history when Disney discontinued the franchise after RPM. Now she is the last Pink Ranger of the Disney Era and the first Pink Ranger of the Saban Brands Era is Mia Watanabe.
- She is the second ranger to have the power possession of Invisibility as the first was Tommy Oliver from the Dino Thunder series.

text: The decision to drop the charges against Mubarak lead to protests in Cairo [Getty Images]Cairo's Tahrir Square has been closed for the second time after the announcement of a court verdict dropping charges against former President Hosni Mubarak for killing protesters, state media has reported. The court also acquitted Mubarak and others of corruption charges. Following the decision, hundreds took to Tahrir Square to protest against the verdict, leading to the closure of the square. The square was reopened early on Monday for traffic before being closed off again in the afternoon. After the protests, troops sealed-off Tahrir using armoured vehicles and barbed wire, but reactionary demonstrations led to clashes on its outskirts, which led to the death of two, including a child. Various groups, including Islamist organisations as well as pro-revolutionary groups, vowed to protest against the dismissal of charges against Mubarak starting from Tuesday, but also refused to co-ordinate with each other. The Constitution Party, Strong Egypt Party, Bread and Freedom Party, April 6 Youth Movement, Youth for Justice and Freedom and Resistance student movement announced a "revolutionary week" at a press conference on Sunday. Egypt's prosecutor-general has issued an order to file an appeal against the dismissal of the charges. In May he was sentenced to three years in jail for embezzling public funds, after being detained, pending trial, from April 2011 to August 2013. This detention period in Egypt is regarded as time served and will be deducted from the sentence. Mubarak's lawyer on Sunday had indicated that the former leader could be released early after having served two-thirds of the corruption sentence. "Under a recent legal amendment, there can be a release once two-thirds of a sentence has been served," Farid al-Deeb said.
