Let me back up a bit. Until recently, my life was typically suburban middle class with two kids and two working parents. Karl worked as an auto parts sales rep, and I'm the crafts editor at a women's magazine. Because we both worked full time, Karl and I had divvyed up the household and parental responsibilities. And because I'm totally right-brained and never met a math problem that didn't send me into a state of hyperventilation, Karl handled the family finances. With my blessing.
Big mistake.
Karl handled the finances all right. He handled them down into negative territory so low that he'd dug us into a pit halfway to China. Only I didn't know that. Not until he dropped dead one day. In Las Vegas. Trusting wife -- moi -- thought he was at a sales meeting in Harrisburg, PA.
Not only had Karl wiped us out -- raiding our savings, retirement accounts, and our kids' college funds -- he'd cashed in his life insurance policy, taken a second mortgage on the house and gotten himself into hock with a loan shark. I inherited all the debt -- and the loan shark.
And if that weren't enough, someone's framing me for a coworker's murder.
So not only do I need to clear my name and get the loan shark out of my life, I need to find some way to make extra money. That's where Lois Winston comes in. You see, she's telling my story in her new Anastasia Pollack Crafting Mysteries, and she's agreed to split the advances and royalties with me. The more books she sells, the faster I climb out of debt.
Lois also managed to twist a few arms and got the other editors at my magazine to blog with me at Killer Crafts & Crafty Killers. It's the online complement to our newsstand issues and features all sorts of goodies like crafts project, recipes, decorating tips, and more. Plus, we host guest authors on what we call Book Club Friday. Stop by if you get a chance. Most of our guests give away copies of their books. You can find Killer Crafts & Crafty Killers.
I blame a lot of my current predicament on my own blind trust. Had I paid more attention to family finances, I might not be where I am today. I've learned my lesson, though. I'll never again trust any man, not even that to-die-for stud who's now renting the apartment over my garage.
Have you ever been suckered by someone you thought completely trustworthy? How did you handle the fallout when you discovered the truth?

text: I spent most of my last full day here in Oxford just wandering around looking at the town, since it is highly amenable to drifting, and everything shuts down by mid-afternoon anyhow. Like Venice (and not too many other places), Oxford seems like an impossibly pretty place to have survived into the present century. And unlike Venice, Oxford is not sinking under the weight of the zillions of tourists who have ruined it for natives (if, indeed, there are any real Venetians left). It seems to have adapted just fine, thank you very much, into the present while still fulfilling its primary mission, and being very, very pretty while doing it (allowing for the occasional and unfortunate stab at "modernity" that took the form of Brutalist dormitories, and the "Haunted Oxford" tours, for which there is no excuse). So how did that happen in this rarefied place? I often mull on an observation from an editorial on the demolition of Penn Station, in which the writer recorded the damning statement: we get the cities we deserve. It helps me understand the dreadful state of so many cities that have been shaped by short-sighted politicians, for cheapness (not economy, but cheapness),and crude concerns for alleged personal conveniences. But I have trouble understanding that sentiment in light of Oxford. Does anyone really deserve all of this? And don't more of us deserve better?

When you become a Momma, you are filled with dreams. From the moment that you learn of your pregnancy, you start thinking about your child and the life they may have. If you already have children, you think about how the new baby will grow up with their siblings, building bonds that will last throughout their life. You think of the children playing together and at times conspiring together. Of course, being siblings they will experience the occasional rivalries or times of angst. But overall, the bond you dream for them will be strong enough to withstand what the world throws their way.
When your baby is born, you are ecstatic. You cuddle your little one close and continue to have dreams. Play dates and parties, along with the fun times you will have as a family and the children have with their friends drifts through your mind. You have friends who have children of their own. You talk and share in the joys and challenges of parenthood. Throughout it all, you feel the bond of friendship, a sisterhood, with them.
Then comes the day when you get the news. You learn that your precious little one has been diagnosed with Infantile Autism. Soon, there are therapy appointments, doctor visits, and home therapies that begin to take priority in your family's life. There are meltdowns and seemingly irrational fears or distress from your little one that are painful to watch. But as Momma, you have to face it all with a steadiness that will provide a calming balm to your little one. You balance your time so that you not only give the little one all that they require, but time to the rest of your family as well. At times, it can feel like you are walking through an emotional minefield. All of your family needs your attention, each in their own way, and you pray that they allow you to take care of their needs one at a time. You carve out times for each child so that none feel slighted.
Your friends offer supportive comments when they see you out and about. At first, you take them seriously when they say, "If you ever need me – even just to talk – give me a call." Your eyes get opened up pretty quickly though when you do reach out. Unanswered texts or unreturned calls are not unusual. You don't reach out but rarely because you know that people without a special needs child have no understanding of what you are dealing with on a daily basis. They may mean well and can have compassion, but they just don't get it. They have not lived with a child who is severely delayed in their development. They haven't experienced first hand what it is like to have a child who screams or cries in frustration because they cannot communicate to you a need that they have. They haven't tried to go to the store to do some necessary shopping, only to leave you cart behind because the stimuli in the store was more than your little one can endure. They don't know how inadequate a parent can feel at those moments when their child is having a meltdown from over stimulation and others are less than compassionate towards you and your child. In the middle of all the chaos are the siblings who you also have to reassure. In the beginning, the reassurances are needed much more than later. Sadly, the siblings gain an acceptance that meltdowns can happen. In a way, it is a relief though when they make that realization.
The times of stress, when you are dealing with new behaviors or meltdowns are happening over new situations, you want to reach out. But to whom to you go? By this time, you have already learned that people want to hear that all is well and don't want to hear about a difficult day. You have heard, "You are such a strong woman" so many times that it is no longer a comfort but another weight around your shoulders. You want to tell them that you are not strong enough to face these situations alone. No, not because you are suffering from depression . It is simply that people were created to be relational. We crave, by our own nature, the companionship of friends. Think of all the times when simply talking with a friend made a tough time a bit easier. They may not have eliminated the cause of your stress, but just being able to talk it out gave you relief. A Momma of a special needs child is no different. We have had to mourn the dreams of what could have been and accept what is. We have to develop new dreams for our child that are more in line with their true potential. That is painful! It puts an ache into your heart to go from a dream of college for your child to praying that they will one day be able to live in an assisted living home and not a full care nursing home.
There is no more times of meeting up with a friend for coffee. You find that suddenly everyone is too busy. Some of the people whom you always thought of as friends turn out to be the fair weather variety. They are there when all is well before you had your little one, but suddenly have too much going on once your special needs child came along. One of the things that I found is that these friends really don't mean to stay away or ignore you. They really do have other things on their mind, For some, they may be uncomfortable with the realities of the special needs. They don't understand it and so avoid it. Then there is a classic reason known as "out of sight, out of mind." They don't intend to alienate you, they just get so focused on their own life that they forget you are there until they see you again. It isn't anything to put blame on. It is simply a reality. Just as the sun comes up in the east each morning, people will let you down.
One of the replies that has me mentally shaking my head is when people tell me, "Stay in prayer because the Lord will always give you strength." Yes, that is true. But, let me ask this. What if the way the Lord helps to strengthen us in difficult days is the reaching out of a friend? A common saying in churches is that "we are the hands and feet of the Lord." This meaning behind this being that it is through using us that the Lord can bring about blessings to others. What if, it is through you making a phone call that the Lord is able to help lift the spirits of someone having a bad day? What if, it is through just a simple text message or email that the Lord helps someone to not feel like they are walking the path alone? What if?
It is the little things that can make the rough days feel lighter. Yes, the special needs issues will always be there. Truly knowing deep down in your heart that you have a strong support system through your friendships can make it much easier to manage. It doesn't take much. A simple card or postcard in the mail, a phone call, a text, or even a hug when you see the friend can lift the weight of the stress for that moment in time. The real gift then becomes the moment that you, the parent of a special needs child, have that peace in your heart. Placed there by the Lord through the love and compassion of people in your life that are genuine in their feelings. That is the gift. It is also one of the most rare jewels you will ever achieve in your life.

We're going to talk about you in this blogcast. Can you think of anyone better to talk about? We're serious. This blogcast is especially about your one-of-a-kindness, your unique qualities, the you you probably don't even know – and are wondering how we know.
The you we're blogging about is the unique you. The special you. The awesome you! The you that has a Core Essence that is timeless and powerful beyond your wildest imagination.
It is the you psychologists and sociologists call your True Self, your Authentic Self. Carl Jung called it your Archetypical Self. Eric Fromm called it your Original Self. Carl Rogers referred to it as the Real You. Neuroscientist, Andrew Newberg refers to it as your Deeper Self. He says: "Beneath the subjective awareness we think of as the self, there is a Deeper Self, a Self that sees beyond the limits of subject and object, a Self that rests in a universe where all things are one."
Philosophers and spiritual leaders call it your Divine Nature, your Higher Self, your Transcendent Self. It's the you we call the Extraordinary You.
So, let's talk about you — the Wise You, the Spectacular You, the Spiritual You, the Phenomenal You, the Peerless You, the Exceptional You, the Unparalleled You, the One-of-a-Kind You, the Remarkable You, the Awesome You, the Metaphysical You, the Amazing You, the Fantabulous You, the Brilliant You.
It's your Super Self, your Christ Self, your Buddha Self, your Krishna Self, your Allah Self, the Enlightened You.
Those yous are you because you are a multi-storied spiritual being having a human experience. How does that description feel? If it sounds like we're going over-board with those descriptions, we invite you to think for a moment about how much of your hidden potential has gone unnoticed, unappreciated, and unused.
There's more to you than you think there is! You are much more than a collection of thoughts, habits, calories, debit cards, and molecules.
There's an Extraordinary You inside of you. There's a deeper part of you that is the seat of your higher functioning, your phenomenal talents and abilities, your incredible one-of-a-kindness just waiting to be released! It's the You that can do amazing things.
People discover their Extraordinary Nature in many ways.
Some people recognize their unique qualities and work to strengthen them. For example, you may remember Diana Nyad. This 64-year-old journalist and long-distance swimmer made history on September 2, 2012., when she became the first person to swim the 110 treacherous miles from Havana, Cuba to Florida's Key West without a shark cage or swim fins. She made the trip in a little under 53 hours. She knew she had this extraordinary ability within her, but it took her 5 attempts, beginning in 1978.
Other people do not realize their extraordinary nature until some unexpected event brings it out. In 2006 in Tucson, Arizona, Tim Boyle watched in horror as a Chevrolet Camaro hit 18-year-old Kyle Holtrust. The car pinned the teenager, who was still alive, underneath it. Boyle ran to the car and lifted the Camaro off Kyle, while the driver of the car pulled the injured lad to safety.
Think lifting a Camaro is impressive? Six-foot-6-inch, 345-pound John Evans balances cars, motorcycles, washing machines, and beer kegs on his head! The Englishman credits his neck, which is an amazing 24 inches wide, with allowing him to achieve his balancing acts. (If you really want to appreciate this, take a tape measure and stretch it out to 24 inches, then hold it up against YOUR neck!)
Some other examples of people who have connected with their Extraordinary Nature:
Dean Karnazes ran 135 miles nonstop across Death Valley in the Mojave Desert in temperatures reaching 120 degrees F and a 26 mile marathon to the South Pole in minus 40 degree weather.
Roy Sullivan has been struck by lightning seven times – and survived each strike. Nicknamed the "Human Lightning Rod," Sullivan has been struck by lightning more than any other human being.
A Serbian flight attendant, Vesna Vulovic, survived the highest fall from the sky without a parachute. On January 26, 1972 during a flight over what is now called the Czech Republic a bomb planted by terrorists exploded in the baggage compartment of the plane causing the plane to break into pieces in mid air. The plane fell 33, 330 feet. Vesna was the only survivor.
101 year-old great-great grandfather, Fauja Singh completed nine competitive 26-mile marathons, after the age of 80.
A Chinese man named Chao Lu took just over 24 hours to recite Pi to 67,890 digits without a mistake. That means he said one number every 1.3 seconds for an entire day without hesitating.
Physicist / Engineer Kim Ung-yong has a verified IQ of 210.
18 year old world chess champion Magnus Carlsen from Norway once played 25 chess champions at the same time – and won all 25 matches. He stood with his back to his competitors during the entire marathon of matches.
There are math and science prodigies, biology and chemistry prodigies, music, athletics, and art prodigies, astronomy and physics prodigies too numerous to mention.
In addition to our incredible human skills, talents, good looks, and achievements that make us extraordinary, we've got extraordinary in our DNA.
Think about the people you know. Everyone is composed of hydrogen atoms and subatomic particles called quarks, leptons, and gluons that were present at the Big Bang. We're not kidding. Quantum physicists tell us that we are literally stardust as physical beings.
Subatomic parts of us are 15 to 18 billion years old. Other parts of us are a billionth of a second old. And, of course, since we've been in our particular human form most of us have added a few quirks to our quarks.
Quantum physicists tell us that the iron atoms in our blood come from exploding white dwarf stars; the oxygen in our blood comes from exploding supernovas that ended the lives of massive stars; most of the carbon in the carbon dioxide we exhale on every breath comes from planetary nebulas.
Carl Sagan told us for years that "The nitrogen in our DNA, the calcium in our teeth, the iron in our blood, the carbon in our apple pies all came from the interiors of collapsing stars."
We are incredible beings! We are truly made of stardust.
Except for hydrogen atoms, which account for a tenth of our weight, most of our body is made of cosmic stuff. Our bodies literally have the entire history of the universe captured within our atoms.
To get a feel for how extraordinary our bodies are, consider these factoids:
- The nerve impulses in our brain travel 170 -180 miles per hour.
- The human body is estimated to have 60,000 miles of blood vessels.
- The surface area of a human lung is equal to the area of a tennis court.
- We don't want to get in trouble for this one, but the strongest muscle in the human body is our tongue.
- It is guesstimated that the human body has 90-100 trillion cells, 85-100 billion brain cells, and 7 octillion atoms. (That's 7 followed by 27 zeros).
There's more to us than meets the eye. Wouldn't you agree?
Because of our extraordinary nature, the placebo effect is possible. Those of you in medicine know that the aim of the pharmaceutical industry is to develop drugs that perform at least as well as placebos. People have remised from stage four cancer. People who have multiple personalities can have diabetes, hypertension, or near-sightedness in one personality and be perfectly healthy in another personality in the same body.
Our creativity, imagination, and ingenuity are unlimited. Many of our technological feats and discoveries boggle the mind! The Internet, iPads, smart phones, 3D printers, and drones are revolutionizing our way of living. Don't you agree?
But you might be sitting there thinking, "Yeah, this is all great and wonderful … but I can't swim across the ocean, or lift cars off people, or invent the next great techie toy to revolutionize the world. What does this have to do with me? So here's our question:
Are you in touch with YOUR extraordinary nature? What are the gifts YOU bring to this human experience that can truly make a difference?
Jesus as the Christ reinforced the Extraordinary Nature each of us possesses when he said (in John 14:12) "He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and great works than these shall he do." From a metaphysical perspective, this means that when we connect with our Divine Nature, realizing there is no separation between our human self and our Christ Self, we can access the realm of the Absolute, and use the Spiritual Principles and Truths to have dominion over the world of appearance. We have within us everything we need to do this.
If you feel like you are disconnected with your Extraordinary Nature, it may be a great time to stop and apply the SIFI test (that's S-I-F-I): ask yourself these questions:
• Spiritual Practice — Am I making time for it on a regular basis?
• Inner Voice — Does my self-talk need to be edited?
• Forgiveness — Is there forgiveness work to be done?
• Inner Peace— Am I allowing myself to breath and be present to the now moment?
This SIFI test will move you past the extraordinariness of you from the physical, mental, and emotional aspects, and take you deeper—to that all important spiritual dimension — that divine quality that defies logic and ordinary belief. That spiritual part of us that is light years ahead of science.
In our next blogcast, we'll blog about our higher consciousness aspect. It's an aspect of our true nature that has been repressed and neglected because most people don't know who they really are or how to access their extraordinary nature. It's the Deeper Nature we mentioned at the beginning of this blogcast. It's about the you that's just waiting to be released. Till then, be Extraordinary!

The heat is returning, so HowChow returns to some of the best ways to cool off around here.
First, get something cold to drink. Don't fall for the first soda that you see. Check out the five takeout drinks that you can buy at Howard County restaurants -- from a yogurt smoothie to a fruit and and ice shake.
Second, think bubble tea. These are really just mixes jazzed up with the tapioca pearls, but they're fun at Ichiban in Columbia, Bon Appetit in Ellicott City, and other places. Look for Asian bakeries or takeouts.
Third, scoop ice cream. A post this month collected a bunch of places to get ice cream in Howard County. Go exotic with that bing soo.
Last, go the opposite direction. Lots of people think that hot and spicy dishes make you sweat, and that will cool you off better than cold food. If that's your game, try the tofu stews at Lighthouse Tofu in Elllicott City.
Any other suggestions about how to cope with the heat? Great cold food around here? And anyone know what's up with Pete's Snowball Stand? Did it open this year? A prior comment asked what is happening because there are plans to extend Oakland Mills Road?

Stay Cool Out There: Ways To Cope With Heat (Other Than Thinking "This Is Better Than Ice")

Better than ice cream: stop by your local indian grocery (Like Indus in Laurel or Rockville) and get a frozen Kulfi pop. The Indus in Laurel (4th street, behind the Laurel Lakes shopping center where the Giant and Books a Million are) has a freezer case near the cash wrap. I recommend the pale green cone-shaped pops.

With our National Health Service beginning to creak under the weight of increasing numbers of senior members of society as people live longer, Pearl S Buck's words have never been truer:
Our society must make it right and possible for old people not to fear the young or be deserted by them, for the test of a civilization is the way that it cares for its helpless members.
I recently received a letter from my Godmother, who at 102 years old, apologised for not penning a longer letter! I felt humbled. My husband said, "I've never held a letter written by someone who has had a telegram from the Queen." I could tell that he was impressed, too. Old age need not be a time of helplessness or infirmity … it shouldn't be.
My parents, who passed on aged 73 and 77 respectively, could probably never have imaged living for a century. That infamous time-traveler, Doctor Who, has lived (fictionally, of course) for billions of years – he went 'the long way round' on more than one occasion! Yet he has (so far) lost none of his zest for life, as evidenced by his date with River Song in the recent Christmas Special. For 'Torchwood's Captain Jack Harkness, longevity is a somewhat harder cross to bear… they are two characters at opposite ends of the spectrum, giving us some great story-telling along the way.
Old age (or finite life) is a theme beloved of science-fiction writers and film-makers since…. well, since the first piece of speculative fiction appeared (author Brain Aldiss cites Mary Shelley's 'Frankenstein' as the first example of science-fiction, and I can't argue with that). In the society of William F Nolan's classic novel, 'Logan's Run', 'old age' is deemed to be twenty-one. Neolithic men and women were lucky to reach forty.
C.S. Lewis had this to say:
How incessant and great are the ills with which a prolonged old age is replete.
While Aldous Huxley took a different view:
The secret of genius is to carry the spirit of the child into old age, which means never losing your enthusiasm.
Personally, I'm with Aldous. Well, as someone starting my writing career in my fifties , I need all the positivity I can get!
With scientists declaring in the spring of last year that quite soon, we might all be able to live 'five hundred years or more', it seems eerily appropriate that my first novel asks the question: "How long do you want to live?"
'The Methuselah Paradox' makes no judgments, however. It's a story, primarily about people who have been caught up in the consequences of a discovery… and there are many ways the story could have gone, many different scenarios that could have played out (and I probably tried them all, before settling on one). I think it may be a theme I will return to… because really, the answer could be as simple as "as long as I have good health, so that I can live, and not just exist." … and that's probably the answer I would give, if I were to be asked the question. But of course, it's never quite as simple as that…
So… how about you? How long do you want to live? How do you think living 'five hundred score or more' will affect us, and our society – and of course, planet Earth? I can't promise to answer all those questions in 'The Methuselah Paradox', but I hope it will give you food for thought.
Never one to miss an opportunity, before I go, I'm going to slip in a little plug for my crowdfunding campaign… if you'd like to help me create a trailer for 'The Methuselah Paradox', why not pop over to www.ejjackson.org to see what cool, limited editions perks you can pick up in return for a little donation…
Thank you for reading!

Will Arnett returns to prime-time television tonight with new series The Millers, and we couldn't be more nervous. But why? Will Arnett is great! Sure, we loved him on Arrested Development, and yes, we cheered whenever he'd pop up to sabotage Jack Donaghy. But with the short-lived FOX series Running Wilde under his belt, and the mismanaged Up All Night to his name, Arnett is dangerously close to becoming known as a product of a successful TV series who simply can't get it done on his own. And he's not alone.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus and her many Emmys prove that the Seinfeld curse isn't real, but her former cast members' failure to find successful ventures in the years since their characters were left to rot in jail shows us that TV magic doesn't always strike twice. Check out our list of actors who rode the wave of a hit show, but have struggled to replicate their earlier success on the small screen.

In the article, Schuler, et al. looked at data from SAMHSA's CSAT 2007 adolescent treatment database, which tracks outcomes for CSAT-sponsored providers. The total sample consisted of 5,186 adolescents who received either Motivational Enhancement Therapy/Cognitive Behavioral Therapy5 (MET/CBT5) - with or without biological drug screen (BDS) - or were part of the BDS-only or No-Treatment groups within another study. Below is a breakdown of the subjects:
All participants responded to the GAIN structured clinical interview, so scores on the Substance Use Frequency Scale and Substance Problem Scale were the primary outcomes measured. Propensity score methods were used to adjust for baseline differences among youth in the four groups, given the non-randomized nature of the data. The results are striking:
What could account for the significant differences? The authors point out that many adolescents who are involved in treatment and/or the criminal justice system may earn rewards for negative drug screens - or face significant consequences for positive screens. Therefore, the self-report nature of the data could skew the results. That would not necessarily explain the consistent differences across groups, however.
What do you think about these results? If you work with adolescents, does this surprise you? Could evidence like this impact the interventions you use?

KEY TAKEAWAY: According to AccessMonitor™, the number of "rep-accessible" physicians – that is, the number of physicians who meet with more than 70 percent of sales reps who attempt to meet with them — dropped to 44 percent from 46 percent in 2015. Digital can make up for a lost rep time, but only if you understand what physicians find valuable.
AccessMonitor™ found:
-44 percent of physicians are "accessible" (that is, they met with more than 70 percent of sales reps who try to meet with them). By comparison, in 2008, nearly 80 percent of physicians met with most reps.
-38 percent of physicians restricted access (that is, they met with 31 to 70 percent of reps who try to meet with them).
-18 percent of physicians "severely" restricted access (that is, they meet with 30 percent or fewer reps who try to meet with them).
While some may see digital as a way to reach physicians, doctors don't have that much additional time online. If you want to reach physicians via digital interventions you need to do two things:
1ne: Go where the doctors are going online
2wo: Ensure your content is valuable to each segment of physicians.
Digital might seem like a good way to reach doctors, but they have limited time, so your message has to be relevant to THEM.

In 1898 H. G. Wells wrote his most famous novel "The Time Machine". In the novel, for those of you who haven't yet read it, a Victorian man invents a machine that allows him to travel into either the future or the past. As such, he travels 800,000 years into the future and while there he finds a society completely different from the one he has become accustomed to, a society inhabited by the Eloi and the Morlocks. The Eloi, on first appearances,, appear to live an idyllic life, but the time traveller makes the discovery that there is in fact a horrendous price that they must pay.
Looking back to some of the greatest novels every written and you can see that writers such as Wells, Dick and Orwell commented on their own current society. They would question the trajectory of "current" trends of the times, question what reality actually was and they would subtly disclose their fears of the future.
Stephen Hawking himself at one point suggested that time travel must be impossible, for the sole reason that if it were possible then we would have had visitors from the future. Since we have therefore never seen a tourist from the future he concluded that time travel indeed must be impossible.
There are many arguments to this point of course, many different ways of trying to refute Hawking's argument. Some people say that if tourists did come from the future then they simply may not interested in us. Others say that perhaps they know the ramifications of letting themselves be known to others as being from the future. My personal theory (and this is a huge hypothetical "if") is that in this day and age, where scepticism and the need to cry insanity is but second nature, would we openly accept that someone is from the future? That's a question that only you yourself can answer. For all I would love the idea of time travel to be a reality, the possibility of seeing days long gone, I know that deep down if someone claimed to be from the future that I would in no way believe them, I would want to believe them and I would try my hardest to do so.
Where do we draw the line between reality and fiction? Why are we as a planet so cynical of everything that is placed in front of our eyes? In C.S Lewis "The Last Battle" there is a point where the dwarves don't believe that what they are seeing are flowers and grass and birds, instead they think it's all just faeces, even though it is directly in front of them. As a planet, we often find ourselves being just as cynical of what we're seeing. Is is down to years and years of media manipulation? Or is it just a natural evolution? I can't answer that, I don't think anyone can answer that.
"A cynic is a man who knows the price of everything, and the value of nothing." – Oscar Wilde
Cynicism masquerades itself as wisdom, but in reality that couldn't be farther from the truth. Cynics don't learn anything and that's simply because cynicism itself is a self-imposed blindness. It is a rejection of this world and it's because we are afraid that it will in some way hurt us or let us down. Cynics always and without fail say no. This is because they don't realise that saying "yes" causes things to begin. Saying "yes" is how to make things grow or that saying "yes" leads to knowledge. "Yes" is for young people and old people, it's for everyone.
I think that part of my unrelenting quest to never let myself grow up comes down to a fear of cynicism. I just don't think that I'm quite ready enough to let the youthfulness inside of me die. Not if maturity means becoming a cynic, not if you have to destroy the part of yourself that is naive and idealistic. That should be the part of you that you treasure most of all. Surely living life with the hope of idealisms is a good thing? Is it not better to die young but with your humanity intact?
So as I mentioned earlier. If someone met you randomly and told you that they were from the future, would you believe them?

Facebook is one of the largest social media platforms with an estimated 2.13 billion monthly active users and an average of 5 new profiles created every second as reported for December 2017. Over 510,000 comments, 293,000 status updates and 136,000 photos are shared on the platform every second. The company therefore has access to a lot of personal information with many raising concerns over the privacy of users on the platform. Facebook has previously faced challenges such broadcasting of crimes, fake news and disinformation campaigns, terrorism etc. all facilitated on its platform.
One of the greatest challenges it has encountered are information leaks with the latest scandal involving the UK based Cambridge Analytica, which is said to have siphoned personal data from up to 50 million users without consent. Firms are continually using sophisticated artificial intelligence algorithms to better understand the consumers and therefore more accurately target products and services. Facebook requires an innovative solution to solve this problem and secure user data more effectively and Bytom (BTM) might have the answer.
A lot of innovation has been seen in the cryptocurrency industry resulting in development of other digital currencies and crypto assets, building upon the foundations of blockchain technology and decentralized systems to create solutions to our everyday challenges. Bytom is a project created with the goal of closing the gap between real world and digital information by providing a platform that would enable transfer of assets between the atomic world and the byte (digital) world.
Its designed as an interactive protocol that defines how byte assets such as cryptocurrencies and smart contracts operating in different forms on the Bytom blockchain and atomic assets like securities, warrants, intelligence and forecasting information, among others, can be registered, traded, gambled or engaged using other forms of contract based operations between the 2 worlds on the blockchain.
There have been talks of the Chinese government's intention to introduce a state backed digital currency with the controllable anonymity feature to replace the physical currency. This feature is set to improve security mitigating against financial crimes such as money-laundering, terrorism among others by limiting access to personal information and privacy to only cases where no 3rd party is anonymous. This is in appreciation of the fact that these crimes are encouraged if perpetual third party anonymity is allowed. Bytom has this feature built into its protocol, it can be customized for Facebook to improve the security of its users' personal data.
Bytom (BTM) is built in 3 layers, the data transaction and transmission layer, contract layer and the asset interaction layer, each designed to handle specific tasks which together result in a secure and effective ecosystem. The asset interaction layer calls on the contracts while the data transaction and transmission layer, built to be compatible with the UTXO model bitcoin's transaction data structure enables for high speed concurrence and controllable anonymity.
One of the features included in Bytom's consensus mechanism is non-repudiation which ensures that participants of a transaction cannot deny the occurrence of that transaction. Such a feature would greatly assist Facebook in holding users accountable for the items they post or share as it would make it difficult for users to disown items such as fake news, broadcasts of criminal activities, bullying comments etc. that they share on the platform.
Built into Bytom's contract layer is the genesis contract, which has the ability to perform standardization and automated audits of a new asset to ensure it complies with corresponding rules and templates before it is approved. Implementing such a feature on Facebook, that would be able to quickly and seamlessly perform such audits on all posts and requests made to the social media platform would enable the company to identify and mitigate against issues such as fake news updates, criminal postings, unapproved access to user information among others.
Bytom (BTM) technology has this features and has demonstrated their functionality. It has also been developed as a flexible ecosystem empowering developers to create customized tools for specific goals. Facebook can greatly benefit from this great technology.

Australians at D-Day
Overall there were around 3,000 Aussies involved in the landings, a large proportion of whom were aircrew. Small biscuits in comparison to the hundreds of thousands of Allied servicemen involved, but it is good to know there was an Aussie presence at this key moment in history.
The Royal Australian Navy historical pamphlet series Semaphore has this week published a small piece detailing key Aussies who were part of OPERATION NEPTUNE. You can d/l it for free here:
There is more information regarding Australian servicemen at D-Day here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_contribution_to_the_Battle_of_Normandy
Of course, erudite readers will know that today is the 70th Anniversary of the planned D-Day landings, the actual operation being delayed by high winds and heavy seas until 6 June.

|PCN // Selena Gomez and... WOAH who is this mystery guy??!
|PCN // Is SelGo getting SWAGGY checking out this dude's kicks, or.... something else?
While JUSTIN BIEBER IS AWAY... SELENA GOMEZ GOES OUT TO PLAY!
The pop superstar's significant other was spotted OUT with a friend.... and SOME MYSTERY GUY... and as you can see, she's got a drink in hand!
NOW... the rumor mill will start spinning saying she's cheating, but let's examine this...
Biebs is out. Last night, he was home in Canada for the Much Music Video Awards. Selena is 19... and wants to get out and do her thing... and she's old enough, works hard and deserves it.
Friends are friends, and it's not like they're in a full on lip lock or anything, so before we go spreading rumors... let's just state the facts...
AND... he used to - according to fans on TWITTER - be a co-star of hers! IN FACT... this one tweep says: @sglateam: Bracey & Sammy Droke at the DS2DIO launch party (June 14)
She looks awesome. He's hot. It is what it is. So why get into rumors, right? :)
But, what will King Swaggy have to say about this? If anything?
BTW... Selena's legs... SWAGGY!

Originally £19.99, then it went down to £6.99, before settling on today's price of £4.99.
Yeah I know, £19.99, who are they kidding? But £6.99 seemed reasonable and £4.99 seems like a good price for the popular "Me to You" range considering you get the pencil case thrown in.
If you're off on holiday soon, backpacks are always handy for kids, whether it's to transport items they need like food and drink or "essentials" like their favourite toys. Or the more organised among you may grab this one ready for after the summer holidays and heading back to school. No doubt by the time this draws nearer, these will have shot back up in price or be out of stock.
Measuring H34, W25, D9.5cm, Argos state this has an 8 litre capacity, I've never really understood that to be quite honest and tend to go with the measurements but there you go.
The Me to You Courier Bag and Purse* is also reduced to £4.99 today if that's the style you prefer and with this you get the purse instead of the pencil case.
Decent reviews on the backpack too, lots of stars and one reviewer remarked :
This product was good value for money, well made and I would recommend this product for use by young children.
As always with Argos you can reserve it to a store near you free of charge or have it delivered to your door for £3.95.

A COCKATIEL with a crown of blonde hair has been nicknamed "Queenie" after making herself at home in the grounds of the Palace of Holyroodhouse.
The bird was spotted by guards in the royal estate in Edinburgh on Thursday, the day of the Queen's 90th birthday.
Staff called the Scottish SPCA, which has now taken Queenie into care while they seek her owner.
Animal rescue officer Steph Grant said: "It was quite funny that the cockatiel landed in the grounds of the palace on the Queen's 90th birthday.
"With the lovely weather we've been enjoying, it's quite likely she escaped from home after her owner left a door or window open.
"We'd love to reunite Queenie with her owner and we're sure they'll be surprised to learn where she was found.
"If no-one comes forward for Queenie, we'll find her a suitable new home."
In February, we told you that the Queen's lost racing pigeon was found hundreds of miles from home in Scotland.
The Scottish SPCA was called when the exhausted bird was spotted in East Lothian on February 2.
Staff traced it back to its owner and the racing pigeon has now been returned to the royal loft at Sandringham estate in Norfolk.

Wonderful Kids Canopy Bed and Decor
Many times we find ourselves staring out of sight of beautiful children's bedrooms that include kids canopy bed that would make the most demanding princess happy. We may even fall into temptation, changing the cradle to the "senior" bed. Purchasing the most spectacular canopy bed in the store. But there are several things we must keep in mind before buying a bed of story for the princess of the house. The first thing is that we have to keep the mind clear, the space. The stage in which the bed will be used, the height of the ceilings. And the different models will be the markers that make us decide for a bed or another. And not the illusion of a girl of five years, by many poutles that he knows how to do.
New selection of ideas! And how I like to do this kind of articles … find, choose. And enjoy great ideas to share with all of you! Today I bring you an idea that many like but never dare to do (and I am include in that group!). What do you think of preparing a canopy to decorate the room? It can be for ours and also for the kids … cute idea, right? But surely it has happened to them that when they see them they think they are difficult or almost impossible to do…
I could not miss a kids canopy bed idea for the baby's crib. Whether it is a boy or a girl they can stir up the design or just change the colors. This idea of Thecraftcrib.com seems to me beautiful and also very durable! And the last idea is a canopy to completely cover the bed but with a classic look. The good thing is that it is so but so easy that you are going to be surprise.
Another parameter that should condition us is the height of the room. The ceilings should be high enough for the canopy to look and most importantly it can be clean with ease. It is not optimal for a children's room that the canopy is the number one dust accumulator in the little girl's face while she sleeps. One has to think if the bed is going to be definitive until it leaves Erasmus. Since at best (only to the best) to that of the ten years decides that the canopy does not like anything. If the canopy goes apart like those canopies / mosquito nets of Ikea. Then nothing happens, it is removed and you are done. But what happens when it is an authentic kids canopy bed?

Always assume failure. If you are always thinking about contingency plans, then if something goes wrong you're ready for it and you can prevent issues from occurring. This theory has helped me avoid many issues in my career.
The most rewarding part of my role is seeing my team grow professionally. My priorities at work are driving results through leading. Success is having a team that works well together and supports one another by always over-delivering. I am big on morale, working hard and having fun.
The most challenging thing about my role currently is implementing a new ERP system. The system went live after 8 months. This was a quick implementation and has been successful with a lot of work getting the parameters set up correctly. My team has been putting in long hours with numerous weekends to ensure success.
The biggest challenges for women in leadership in my opinion is that we have to "be nicer". All through my career I have been given feedback to soften my approach or not be so hard on people at times but at the same time when a male acts the same way he is being promoted and rewarded for getting stuff done.
Organizations can increase recruitment and retention of women leaders by providing the same opportunities independent of gender and by factoring in performance as the key driver. Promoting women leadership programs can help develop women as well as retain them. Treasury Wine Estates has a yearly award to recognise talented women. Part of the award is to give the winner the opportunity to spend a day with our CEO Michael Clarke.
I'm really excited about our new acquisition with Diageo wine as well our leadership program called Verasion. Both will provide some great experience and learnings throughout the journey. Our leadership program at TWE is an amazing experience thus far and I look forward to completing it by April.
I like the fact that there is a big focus and respect for diversity in the workplace. TWE also owns exceptional brands and a very wide range of products from iconic wines, such as Penfolds Grange, through to very good value and popular commercial wines, such as Rawson's Retreat. TWE employees are proud of these wines and continue to collaborate well to deliver these great wines to the world to enjoy. I love the people and their passion, and the commitment and pride they show on a daily basis. Everywhere I go in TWE, I see the same pride and commitment and this is nothing short of inspiring.
Treasury has a unique and exceptional portfolio. This is a very difficult question because I have a lot of favourites, but I will narrow it down to my top three: Stags' Leap Cabernet, Etude Pinot Noir and Beringer Private Reserve Cabernet.

Zest one of the grapefruit (I used a microplane) and stir the zest into the agave, allowing it to steep to infuse the syrup.
Juice one of the zested grapefruit to yield 1/3 cup of juice. Mix the juice with the milk and add to the grapefruit zest-infused honey, mixing with a whisk. Mix in eggs and oils.
Sift and whisk the flours, baking powder and soda and salt together in a separate bowl.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet, gradually stirring, until there aren't any lumps left and the batter has thickened.Pour batter into a 9-inch square pan lined with parchment paper or an oiled 9 inch springform pan or a bundt and bake for 45 minutes or until golden brown.

A woman in Florida escaped from being held hostage on Monday thanks to Pizza Hut's smartphone app, and employees who recognised her order.
Ethan Nickerson and his girlfriend had been arguing throughout the day when he started to threaten her with a large knife. Nickerson then took her phone, but later gave it back to her so that she could order a pizza. She slipped a message into the comments section reading, "911hostage help!" Nickerson immediately took the phone back after the order.
Family held hostage uses Pizza Hut app to call for help http://t.co/kifqhJF8u8 pic.twitter.com/Y9thsvCG6r
"We've never seen that before," the Pizza Hut's manager told WFLA. "I've been here 28 years and never, never seen nothing like that come through."
Thankfully, the woman was a frequent customer and the employees recognised that it probably wasn't a hoax. They immediately called the police, who arrived to find the woman and one of her children answering the door. The two other children in the home were released by Nickerson after 20 minutes of talking with police through a closed door.
All of the victims are reportedly safe, and Nickerson has been charged with intent to kill, battery, false imprisonment and obstructing justice. The police told WFLA that he may have been high on meth at the time.
So why did she use the app rather than text? Even if texting had been an option (and it sounds like it wasn't with Nickerson monitoring her use of the phone) texting emergency services is still in its infancy in the United States. Despite the planned roll-out of text-to-911 by the major phone carriers last year, the service is still rather limited. [Press Release via WFLA via Ars Technica]

It is these things that you should do as your employees and clients will trust you in that. It is basically a no-no that you will let other people get their hands on these documents. The proper disposal of these documents is the responsibility of the shredding companies. It is in shredding that you can be sure that the data will not be lost and it also follows legal obligations. This is the process that is being used by the government and is also an efficient way of handling these data.
There are a number of different ways for you to be able to shred documents. One of these services is what is called as a drop-off shredding service. It is the organization that will basically bring the documents to be shredded to the shredding company. It is this service that caters to a small amount if quantity to be shredded. The privacy in doing this service is still at the highest level.

It is one way of conveniently protecting the documents that you have.

It is when you have these files that a shredding company will be able to help you. By making sure that you will be able to discard these files, then you will also be able to have extra storage space. It is very important though that you will know what are the process that the shredding company dos before hiring them. You have to see to it that the shredding company will assure you that no one will be able to get their hands on your documents.

People Can Easily Limit Sugar Intake
OK, we need to eat less sugar. No problem. We'll just stop eating dessert, eschew the doughnuts brought in by our colleague and pass on the Halloween candy. But -- argh! -- why is it so hard? Are we weak-willed babies or what? Sugar is actually an addictive substance. Animal studies show sugar consumption causes bingeing, withdrawal and craving. Regularly eating sugar also makes it easier to become addicted to another drug. When humans were studied, consuming fructose (a form of sugar) caused the brain's reward center to light up. However, much like a drug, over time the subjects needed to consume more and more fructose for the reward center to light up as brightly [source: Lustig].
Additional research shows sugar and sweetness can actually be more addictive, rewarding and attractive than drugs such as cocaine. Seems a bit preposterous, but a possible explanation, say scientists, is humankind's past evolutionary need to eat foods high in calories and sugar [source: Ahmed et al.].
Another problem: Sugar is added to more products than you might think – it's in ketchup, instant oatmeal and spaghetti sauce, for starters.

Niagara County District Attorney Caroline Wojtaszek joined other leaders on Thursday to open a new opioid court.
She says the need comes after more than 400 reported overdoses and 44 deaths last year in Niagara County.
The program already has 15 participants from Niagara Falls City Court, and will now get referrals from surrounding courts.
Wojtaszek says the court is open to people who walk in off the street that need help, as well as defendants who get screened prior to arraignment.
If they test positive for opioid use, their case will be put on hold for up to 90 days while they get the treatment they need.
"When they successfully complete the requirements of opioid court and we know they have the services that they need in place, then they go back on the criminal court calendar and they're held accountable for their actions," Wojtaszek (D) said.
The only other opioid court in the state is in Erie County.

When I try to do clean install from the backup os disk from the manufacturer, it boots and starts the install and hangs on checking configuration. I think it can't find drive c:, as if I choose the option to boot to dos with cd rom configuration, I can read the cd rom from dos and have access to drive a:, but I cannot read drive c: I can boot to bios config and it is there and indicates no problems. This thing was so screwed up that I could not even boot in safe mode,and when I did (after several tries) boot to a desk top, it was so unstable that operation that I selected to try to do diagnostics, I got the same error, "This operation has performed an illeagle operation and must shut down". I tried to reinstall from the backup os cd but can't get past the "checking system configuration".

Sounds like HD has failed. It would be worth unplugging and replugging its connections although it is unusal for thse to cause issues. There are often spare power connectors around so it would be worth trying another if you can find one.
Motherboard or PSU are possible but unlikely. Keep watching to see what others think.
Always pop back and let us know the outcome - thanks
if you could download this:
create a bootable cd and boot from it.
If you get to the desktop, post back.
Derek, I have run diagnostics on the hard drive and it scores an a ok. I think part of the problem was I reformated the hard drive and that was when I had trouble finding it. It showed up in the Bios, but booting on the install disk it couldn't be found. There were several problems with the system. I had another hard drive, and I put it in and it found it. I fdisked it and then the install cd formated it and the install started and crashed with several fault errors. I went into the Bios and disabled some functions and turned off pnp and tried again, still crashed, so I went back into the cabinet and checked connections and memory. My memory was mixed with non compatible dimms, one pc133 and two pc100. Took out the pc133 and tried again and windows installed to the reboot, now I am having problems with the system configuration looking for second edition files at some screwy c: location. I think I have to modify my config.sys file as it is trying to find my cd drive at D: and it is at E:
Thanks for the reply.
You don't need either autoexec.bat or config.sys for Windows to be started or run. Their only use is for true DOS programs (such as ancient games). Try re renaming them to autoexec.old and config.old to eliminate them out of the equation.
Always pop back and let us know the outcome - thanks
When it looks for files in the wrong place it'll tell you it can't find what it's looking for and ask where to look. You can then browse to the correct location.. I think the default location of the 98 cab files is written in the msdos.sys file. That file can be edited but as long as you can redirect the search it shouldn't be a big deal to leave it as it is.

High Uintas Wilderness – Day 7 – Final Day
November 1, 2014 § Leave a comment
Our last morning began with the usual queuing for the cat-hole trowel. I was first (as was getting to be normal) and afterwards I grabbed my fly rod and headed down to the pond for one last native trout fishing experience. Forgotten was it that my one week license was purchased through Friday, and that technically I would be fishing illegally, but as they say, ignorance is in fact bliss. I fished the edge for a while until Larry abandoned The Point and then I took up his former location as this was a prime location. I was still fishing the dry cadis, but the morning felt different and I was pretty sure I had the wrong fly. A few casts, and I was about time to hang it up, when a fish took my fly and I managed to set the hook in time. It would be fair to note here that it took me more than a few tries the previous evening to get the hang of "setting the hook". I could feel immediately that this was no small fry, so I pulled him in and as it turned out he was just barely legal. I was fishing for fun, so catch and release was the name of the game, and after Larry helped me extract the hook, I placed him back in the water and off it swam.
High Uintas Wilderness – Day 6 – Fishing with Andy
October 22, 2014 § Leave a comment
My initial focus this morning was what I could see. Facing south because I like to sleep on my right side, my view was open as that was the direction I had set my Tyvek shelter the previous night. In those first moments of consciousness I couldn't help notice the clouds; The dark clouds; While coming into focus they appeared to be coming our way up the basin. "Rohr Oh" were the only words I could mutter and I jumped out of my sleeping bag with definite purpose. If a storm was coming, then I needed to re-orient my shelter away from the wind. I quickly stiffed my bag, and rolled up my sleeping pad. I decided to take another look. Maybe the clouds weren't heading right for us. Maybe they were moving right to left across my field of view. Maybe I jumped to the wrong initial conclusion.
High Uintas Wilderness – Day 5 – And it was only 4 miles
October 20, 2014 § Leave a comment
The day would prove to be a lot more challenging than the 4-ish miles we calculated we had to travel. On paper it seemed like it might be an easy day. Eighth mile return to the H55 trail, and then 3.5 miles to and over Bluebell. We had studied the lake documentation and we decided to camp on X25, one of the unnamed lakes without camping restrictions, and we hoped some native cut-throat trout. 🙂
High Uintas Wilderness – Day 4 – Unexpected Pleasures
October 17, 2014 § Leave a comment
Day 4 is upon us. We will be moving camp from our current elevation, back down the Yellowstone, and then up the Bluebell Pass trail to Milk Lake. The net change in elevation will be almost +300′, but we need to lose 600′, and then gain back the 900′. We will be covering some of the same ground that we did on Day 2, however, we will hang a left when we get to the first trail junction. The hike back will have us recross the Yellowstone again, and we will have also to recross Milk Creek, which was a little dodgy the first time. Once we make the left onto Bluebell though, the terrain changes from a long valley walk, to a hill climb. The map indicates switchbacks, but there isn't anything written which says how many, and how long they last. Reading the map says, there is about 1.2 miles of initial switchbacks, and then it levels off for a bit, re-connects with Milk Creek, and then ascends a little more mildly to the trail junction with Milk Lake. There, a spur will climb the final stretch to the lake where we will commence the search for a fire ring.
High Uintas WIlderness – Day 3 – The roof of Utah
October 16, 2014 § Leave a comment
"Them mountains are mean!!"
I don't really recall where that statement comes from. It might be from a weekend trip a long time back in West Virginia, but there is a certain wiseness to the statement. Mountains can be mean, because weather can form quickly. The higher the mountain, the more air it traps, and forces upwards where it is cooler, and the moisture begins to precipitate out, forming clouds, and later rain and lightening.
High Uintas Wilderness – Day 2 – Even after a change in plans, a change in plans
October 15, 2014 § Leave a comment
I didn't start taking pictures until we were really ready to leave, so it simply appears like someone took care of all the morning chores in camp and all we had to do was lift our packs and go. Of course, that isn't really how it works.
High Uintas Wilderness – Day 1 – A Well Planned Trip Never Goes As Planned
October 13, 2014 § Leave a comment
Full packs carrying everything we think we need with calculated duplicates (cat hole shovels, TP, pumps, etc), and starting out at 8400′ elevation. Destination is the trail junction up to the Garfield Creek Basin. The trail head sign says 9 miles, and the trail follows the Yellowstone Creek the whole way. It is important to keep in mind that this is a high basin that gets a lot of snow in the wInter, so the trail cannot follow the creek at its current water line. Therefore it meanders higher above the creek at times, so there are gains and losses, but in general we gain elevation the whole hike. 9400-9600′ is the final elevation for the day.

Today, September twenty-ninth, marks some sixty-four years since the establishment of the Peoples United Party. Its a big moment for members and supporters of the P.U.P. as they reflect on the history of the party. And while we couldnt be at the commemoration of the Partys 64th Anniversary when the National Party Council met in solemn session in Belmopan yesterday, we figured what best way to highlight the first Partys history than by speaking to those who knew and lived their legacy. Belizario Carballo recounts that he has been following the party since he was only 12 years old. He spoke of things from the devaluation of the BH dollar to adult suffrage to the leadership of Leader Emeritus and the late Rt. Hon George Cadle Price.
Beizario Carballo Member, Order of Distinguished Service
The peoples committee came up the very day in other words the following morning a group of people which consisted of Mr George Price and Lee Richardson and Johnny Smith, Phillip Goldson, Nicholas Pollard and other people got together at Mr Prices home in Belize City and formed what they called the People Committee and they started agitating from the very beginning for Independence because they said you know the colonialism is not helping us at all and so they continued as a committee until September of that year and then on September 29th of that year, the Peoples United Party was formed so the Peoples Committee became the Peoples United Party and since that time I have been hearing about them, they started going around to the districts, they used to come here to Orange Walk, they used to have meetings at the Banquitas and that is why the Banquitas is so famous not only because lovers go there to court at nights but it was the ground of the PUP from the beginning and I can remember from across the street lived the District Commissioner who was in charge of Orange Walk, he represented the governor here in Orange Walk and many times they refused to give us permission and the people still went ahead and had their meetings in the dark and so from that time I have been around and from the very beginning the party was clamouring for Independence and they were very fix on that so that we continue to fight, my father was very much involved and that is why I was around then I can remember that one of the first achievements was adult suffrage because before that very few people could vote in Orange Walk, I recall Mr Price telling me that in 1940 elections only 13 people were able to vote in Orange Walk because the requirements were so stringent and so in 1954 we got adult suffrage where anybody who could read and write could vote and that was the first election that we really now about and we had on that elections two Georges running; Doctor George who was and we found out at that time that he was our representative before and Mr George Flowers who was labourer really from public works and they used to called them the rich and the poor George running and the poor George won, George Flowers won that election for the Peoples United Party and then after the first election they started a fight because the party voted against joining the West Indies Federation which was being formed at that time and silently apparently some of our leaders were trying to join the federation; Mr Goldson, Mr Richardson, Herman Jex, they were on that side favouring the Federation and Mr Price was against it so that in 1956 it came to a head that the party expelled Richardson and Goldson and Herman Jex from the party and so Mr Price became the leader.
Yesterday, the National Party Council met in Belmopan where a reported 300 delegates from throughout the country ratified various resolutions and conducted Party business. Most important among the resolutions, was that on the Partys Social Justice Agenda, which reiterates their commitment to placing the needs of all Belizeans, especially the less fortunate, is at the front and centre of the Partys Manifesto Pledges.
While, 31 senior and stalwart members of the Party were bestowed the George Price Service Award for longstanding service in the PUP, a special posthumous tribute was paid to Don Ramon Cervantes Sr., in the presence of his widow and family members.
