Thermoactive underwear UMF-01SGN "M"*
High-quality underwear made of multilayer, breathable fabric that provides the highest level of convenience. By using the phenomenon of osmotic pressure formation, it enables the transport of water vapor from the body outside the clothing, thanks to which the skin stays dry and maintains thermal comfort. Additional insulation from the inside allows you to use the underwear in the cold season. Perfect for activities such as skiing, fishing, hunting, sailing, mountain biking, climbing, hiking or for the needs of the guard, army and police. The size of the underwear is chosen so that after putting on the fabric tightly adheres to the body allowing immediate evaporation of moisture.

I often walk through the area of the jail where they bring in new inmates. One evening as I passed through the intake area a man inside one of the processing cells was shouting a loud, long stream of profanities.
Standing outside the cell there were five slightly out of breath COs (correctional officers). They had obviously just put a man in the cell a few minutes earlier.
During the occasional breaks in the man's foul-mouthed diatribe one of the COs, Officer M, would explain to the man that, once he calmed himself down, they would transport him to his new unit. It could be in a few minutes, or they could wait all night. It was up to the man and when he had regained his self-control.
What struck me about this was that Officer M was saying all of this in a calm and respectful manner. He was not being patronizing. He was relaying information that this man needed.
Later that evening I again walked through the intake area. The man was still in the cell, but he had finally calmed down. Officer M was respectfully explaining in greater detail what the man needed to do. He was doing it in much the same manner that someone might give directions to a traveler who was lost and needed directions to get back to the main highway. Officer M was treating this man with dignity and respect. He was giving the man directions he needed to continue with this part of life's journey.
Officer M has been doing this job for a long time. He is just a few years away from retirement. I've overheard him speaking with other inmates. He frequently will say "sir" when he addresses them.
- Sir, would you please face the wall.
- Sir, I need you to face the wall now!
Even as he is commanding, he is still respectful. He doesn't get caught up in other people's drama. He treats people with dignity and respect, even when those people are being disrespectful and out of control.
In Romans Paul reminds us that when we were out of control, Christ treated us with honor and respect by offering himself up for us.
Romans 5:6-8 The Message (MSG)
6-8 Christ arrives right on time to make this happen. He didn't, and doesn't, wait for us to get ready. He presented himself for this sacrificial death when we were far too weak and rebellious to do anything to get ourselves ready. And even if we hadn't been so weak, we wouldn't have known what to do anyway. We can understand someone dying for a person worth dying for, and we can understand how someone good and noble could inspire us to selfless sacrifice. But God put his love on the line for us by offering his Son in sacrificial death while we were of no use whatever to him.

End of my internship :Par JulesMaillard dans English Version le 9 Avril 2014 à 11:54
And here we are! I am now back to my life in Bordeaux .
Starting I thought 3 months in Portsmouth would be an eternity , when I leave I think that time has passed really fast !
This course was very beneficial for me !
- I practiced English which allowed me to greatly improve it but more importantly gain confidence in me when I speak or write in English .
- I also learned how to manage a market by managing sales orders , service and everything that goes with it.
- I learned how to use management software for commercial sites. This is in my opinion one of the major points of this course . E-business is now inevitable . To evolve, a company must have an online storefront . To used every day during three months software like Google Analytics , Google Adwords and other is a real highlight on my resume now .
- I also found a lot of different cultures. Indeed, working with 14 different nationalities is not always easy . However it helps to discover new ways of thinking . All are now true friends with whom I shared many things.
In summary it was a rewarding internship and I have absolutely no regrets !
Now my next step is Taiwan. After a stay of five months in France for the summer I 'm going to study international trade in Taipei.
Thank you all , Mike, Charlotte , Lucy, Francine , Matteo and all the others! See you soon in another part of the globe!

Heres latest music video from PUJOL for "Youniverse". The video, filmed entirely on VHS, was written,directed and edited by Eddie Austin and Perry Shall. It was shot in different locations throughout Philadelphia and features Ted Leo, Juiceboxxx and Screaming Females.
PUJOL is hitting the the road later this month with Natural Child in support of his fantastic sophomore album, KLUDGE. His raucuous, unrelenting live show is not to be missed! All upcoming tour dates below.
A kludge is:
"A clumsy or inelegant solution to a problem."
"An ill assorted collection of poorly matching parts, forming a distressing whole."
"A crock that works."
In February of 2013, Daniel Pujol set out to write and record the follow-up to his debut album, 2012's UNITED STATES OF BEING. Pujol and producer Doni Shroader set up shop in Mt. Juliet, TN at The Place: a suicide-prevention center for teens located in a strip mall. They used largely borrowed and donated gear, recording every day from 5pm until 6am, all the while breaking down and setting up the temporary studio every day between office hours. Mixing took place during the building of Battletapes, a two car garage that was in the midst of being converted into an acoustically treated, professional grade tracking room; building permit, construction workers, and all. Following four months of vampiric living and working around conflicting schedules/eccentricities (the band, the engineers, the sun), Daniel, Doni, and Battletapes had finished the album they had been working towards. Recording and mixing happened in a "non-location" where things were being built or set up, in order to work on the album, working around the obstacles the location presented.
In short: Puj kludged KLUDGE.
KLUDGE idiosyncratically captures life as it exists in our weird almost future world of flying robots, cancer from food, cell phone wire taps, metadata, $7.25ish minimum wage and $15.50 an hour endless choice buffets. Yet, the album possesses that inherent sense of timelessness that exists in all great music. Thanks to its combination of addictively fetching rock 'n' roll and Daniel Pujol's lyrical brilliance. The end result is more Malkmus than MacGyver, and proves yet again that Daniel Pujol is, first and foremost, a songwriter.
Examining well-worn subjects like love, death, authenticity, identity, alienation and society, Pujol applies a filter completely his own and brings these ideas to a place they've never existed before. His words examine the world with his signature brand of skepticism, humor, idealism, and an unmistakable earnestness and sincerity. Lead single "Circles" perfectly illustrates this with lines like "Show me that your sacred heart's the human kindness kind / Show me more than 3D printers drawing skulls and knives / Show me more than kleptocratic demagogue control / Show me that you ain't a lizard, show you've got a soul."
Pujol delivers a sophomore record that pushes the intellectual boundaries of songwriting, while at the same time creating a superb, audacious punk rock record filled with moments of delicate beauty. To do just one of these things is rare, but to do all of that is a true feat… or just a crock that works.

Brandon, MB – The past and present of Brandon's beauty and heritage will be showcased during this month's annual Open Brandon Weekend, which runs July 14th through 16th, 2017, at various locations across the community.
Back for a 16th edition during the Open Brandon Weekend are Heritage Brandon's popular Doors Open Brandon self-guided and guided walking heritage tours, which take place Saturday, July 15th and Sunday, July 16th from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. and feature a mix of 21 heritage properties, 5 local museums, 2 City of Brandon civic buildings and a Brandon's Indigenous Peoples Site. Joining the heritage tours again this year on Saturday, July 15th are the Brandon in Bloom Open Garden Tours, organized by City of Brandon Community Development staff and featuring 11 pristine gardens for green thumbs to tour at their own pace.
City of Brandon Heritage Marketing Coordinator Riley Morningstar notes that a new feature for this year's Open Brandon weekend is a double documentary screening from local archivist and documentary producer Tom Mitchell on Friday, July 14th, beginning at 6 p.m. at the A.R. McDiarmid Civic Complex, 638 Princess Avenue.
"Tom's documentaries, 'Wheat City 1900s: Making Modern Brandon' and 'Before Brandon: The Grand Rapids of the Assiniboine' are a really great fit to kick-off a weekend of exploring and reflecting on where Brandon has come from, where it is today, and where it may head in the future," says Morningstar. "We hope people will enjoy the documentaries on Friday evening and then be inspired to venture out during the weekend and take in the wide array of building tours, nature tours, and garden tours on offer."
Morningstar adds that local historian David McConkey's popular guided walking tour of downtown is back this year and departs from the Brandon General Museum and Archives, located at 19-9th Street, at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. on both Saturday and Sunday. This year's tour theme, "These Streets Have Stories", will explore Brandon in its early years and celebrate Brandon's 135th Birthday as well as Canada's 150th year.
Meanwhile, the Brandon in Bloom Open Garden Tours run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and from 4 p.m. to 8 .p.m. on Saturday, July 15th.
"Our Open Garden tours are split into two time slots, so people will have their choice of going to just a few gardens or visiting all 11 locations over the course of the day," notes City of Brandon Community Development Program and Events Assistant Jenna Dobson."Visitors will get the chance to learn about different flowers, new techniques, and innovative designs, and the gardens on the tour also include local artists and musicians who will be showcasing their talents in order to provide an even brighter ambience."
A full list of Doors Open Brandon tour locations and participant details can be found on the Heritage Brandon website at http://heritagebrandon.ca/doors-open/2017-properties, while a full list of Open Garden tour locations can be found online at http://www.brandoninbloom.ca/programs/open-garden-tours.
Individuals may also pick up a complimentary Open Brandon Passport, free-of-charge, at both Brandon Sobey's locations, at Brandon City Hall (410-9th Street), or at the Riverbank Discovery Centre (545 Conservation Drive).

another article on the same study:
Meh... It's OK since most cyclists don't view drivers as fully human either.
Not only are we alien, subversive of norms, many of us dress funny, but we also are a super powerful minority who control govt officials behind the scenes.
Oh dear
The problem with this study (which I did not read, so perhaps it's in there) is any sort of comparison. Do drivers also consider other drivers similarly not human? What about pedestrians? Or any stranger in general?
We don't know if drivers dehumanize cyclists any more or less than any other group they may encounter. Perhaps it doesn't have anything to do with the fact they are cyclists instead of any other particular group.
And is it just drivers? Do pedestrians similarly dehumanize cyclists? If so, of course, they can't inflict as much damage, but an interesting question, nonetheless. And Dismal's point, as snarky as it is, is actually a fair point. Do all road users dehumanize those on another form of transport? Or just everyone else except themselves?
Studies have found that a significant portion of the people of both political persuasions view those on the other side as not human, so this is not unique.
"But if drivers can put a human face to cyclists, researchers say this could reduce aggression directed at cyclists and road trauma involving riders."
Lose the helmet, and you will be safer on the road?
"The relationship between rider position and overtaking proximity was the opposite to that generally believed, such that the further the rider was from the edge of the road, the closer vehicles passed."
Ha! This is the basis of my repulsion theory: Those on the road tend to repel each other, like what happens when the same pole of magnets are near each other. Want cars to be further away? Ride closer to them!
I feel validated... somewhat.

We've all experienced it: that moment of frustration, despair, fatigue. The moment when we were less than our best. Maybe it was a harsh word or tears or silence towards your loved one. Maybe the crushing anxiety of being responsible for another person's welfare left you sleep deprived. Maybe you stopped caring for yourself.
For our country's 65 million caregivers, most will have that moment. The moment where you reached your limit and the stress feels insurmountable. It is not easy to acknowledge these times, and it can be difficult to know how to recover. Stress at this level can often lead to a deterioration in the relationship with your loved one, or care recipient.
Caregiving for a loved one typically is a transition from a very different type of relationship. You may be caring for a parent, partner, child, friend or chosen family member. These years of 'caring about' each other are the basis of the connection. When 'caring about' turns into 'caring for' someone the stress increases and the relationship can suffer.
We have encountered distraught daughters, partners in tears, and friends at their wits' end due to the stress of caregiving. Balancing your own life while trying to make sure another person's household, finances, personal care and nutritional needs are met can feel impossible. How do you minimize stress and return to a more enjoyable relationship?
Acknowledge You Are Human: The first step is being realistic about your capacity. No one is the 'ideal caregiver' all of the time. Your loved one benefits greatly from having you in their lives. There is no shame in recognizing that caregiving is difficult at times and you can't do it alone.
Talk About It: Internalizing stress only serves to increase feelings of isolation, anxiety and depression. Be honest with people close to you and share the emotional weight. Families sometimes self-select the caregiver, for example, the oldest child or the person with no children is the de facto caregiver. If others in the family aren't able to care directly, they might be available for emotional support or other roles.
Get Help: Caregiving without support is a recipe for disaster in most cases. Reach out to people and organizations you trust, find an online caregiving community like The Caregiver Space or Caregiving.com to be supported by other caregivers.
Get Educated: Education is power, and this is especially true in caregiving. At The Care Plan, we keep caregivers and support teams informed about disease progression, what you can anticipate and how to prevent crisis. We also link people to trusted resources like medical providers, caregiving agencies, and more to carefully manage long term care needs.
Take Regular Time Off: Time off is your friend, it allows you the opportunity to recharge and come down from high alert. We encourage caregivers to identify their stress pattern and plan for time off around that. For some people an hour a day does the trick, for others it's a week every 2 months.
Make Time For Fun With Your Loved One: This final tip is incredibly important to maintaining a meaningful relationship between caregiver and care recipient. Once you have built in breathing room and support for yourself, there's space to have fun with the person you are caring for again. Try to have regular relationship-oriented time that isn't about caregiving. For example, get back to having a date night, watching a favorite show, baking, visiting with friends. Those normal interactions can increase positive feelings between you and your loved one, and help you remember why you 'cared about' each other in the first place.
The Care Plan supports many types of families with Care Navigation services. On a larger scale, we actively develop practical resources and tools for you to best care for yourself or another person. Starting July 13th, we encourage you to tune in Thursdays for weekly YouTube videos packed with tips for caregivers and care recipients. Also, please e-mail us at firstname.lastname@example.com with questions and ideas for content you would like to see.

text: Arthur Brooks' article in this weekend's New York Times pointed me to a fascinating study about giving thanks. In 2003, Robert Emmons and Michael McCullough published a paper titled, "Counting Blessings vs. Burdens: An Experimental Investigation of Gratitude and Subjective Well-Being in Daily Life." The authors begin their paper by quoting Charles Dickens: "Reflect on your present blessings, on which every man has many, not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some." The scholars asked some research subjects to list things for which they were grateful over a period of several weeks. Other subjects kept lists of "hassles" - and a third control group listed neutral events. The researchers also asked all subjects to keep records of their moods, health behaviors, physical symptoms, and overall life appraisals during this time. The people who kept lists of things for which they were grateful "felt better about their lives as a whole, and were optimistic regarding their expectations for the upcoming week. They reported fewer physical complaints and reported spending significantly more time exercising." In short, focusing on gratitude and thanksgiving can be good for you. So, try to put aside the hassles and the worries for the next few days at least, and attempt to focus on those things for which we should be thankful. Then let's all try to make it a routine practice to spend more time being grateful and less time being annoyed. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

I asked Renee if we could do something fun--post interviews with each other on the same day. And I knew right away I'd enjoy doing what I did with Amy and Sere Prince Halverson before that. I made a list of things and themes that stood out for me when I read Shake Down the Stars and asked Renee to riff on them. I hope you'll enjoy her thoughts. I did!
But first, about Shake Down the Stars
When Piper's ex-husband announces his new girlfriend is pregnant, Piper is forced to take stock. Realizing that it's time for a change is one step, but actually making it happen is quite another. And despite what she thinks, Piper can't do it alone. Lucky for her, a couple of crazy, funny new friends are ready to step in when she needs them most…and show her how to live and laugh again.

I absolutely love staring up at the night sky. I don't own a telescope (yet!), but I've always been curious about astronomy, and I thought it would be interesting to turn Piper into an amateur astronomer. Piper's knowledge about the stars gave me the excuse to buy books on astronomy and study some of the basics. While I'm not nearly as knowledgeable as most, I do share the feeling of amazement when I stare up at the sky or when I see images of space that the Hubble sends back. It's mindboggling that we're on this teeny tiny planet, floating in a huge galaxy that's part of this astoundingly vast universe. Whoa.
|The Andromeda Galaxy (M31), not ours, but you can see it from here!
I'm an astronomy fan, too, and loved all of the references in Renee's book.

Piper's mother didn't have many scenes in the initial draft of Shake Down The Stars. Over time, though, her mother became more and more integral to the story. Once I began working on Piper's sobriety, for instance, I knew her drinking was about the longing she had for her mother's love as much as the loss she experienced. Piper's mother can be selfish and wasn't very attentive when Piper was growing up. Piper watches her sister Margot replicate this same relationship with her twin daughters. It's hard for Piper to see the pattern continue with her nieces, but unless we have some kind of ah-ha moment, I think we often repeat the patterns we know. Piper does hope to break the cycle at least.

A thoughtful reader (ahem—Julie Kibler!) pointed out that the novel begins and ends with Piper standing by herself. I never realized this! D'uh! Big D'uh! But this theme helps me share what I'd always hoped to do with Shake Down The Stars. I started the novel with a question: How will Piper ever find happiness? That was the through-line that kept me going. And while she's alone at the beginning and at the end, there's a huge difference between being alone and lonely and being able to stand on your own in contented solitude.

Democrats in the World War
I do not put our victory in the World War in the proud list of Democratic achievements. Though fought under the leadership of the greatest Democrat since Jefferson, and although without the support of his party in every crisis it could not have been brought to its successful and triumphant conclusion, it was the people's war in a peculiar sense. The patriotic support given to the government during the war by men of every political faith, proves that passionate love of country and intense devotion to our institutions are a part of the creed of every political party in the nation.
But I do insist that we shall hear no more of the old slander that the Democratic party cannot be trusted to lead in a great war. We may give to individual Americans the full measure of praise which a grateful republic will always shower upon the men who sprang to its defense with unprecedented valor and unhesitating devotion to its Christian cause. But the impartial historian must and will write it down as an incontrovertible fact that the party in power rose with unstinted enthusiasm to the needs of the hour, while its leadership translated the will and spirit of the American people into decisive and courageous action, without which ignominious failure would have been our portion in the Armageddon of the nation.
It has never been any reflection upon the courage or the patriotism of the millions of northern Democrats who followed his leadership, for history to accord to Abraham Lincoln and the party which he led the full measure of credit which was their due for saving the Union in the dark days of the Civil War. The great empire on whose dominions the sun never sets gratefully acknowledges that success could not have come to British arms without the superb political leadership of that masterful little Welshman, David Lloyd George. While France—rescued from the very jaws of death by the courage of her sons, whose blood has colored all the rivers that wash her sunny slopes—does honor to the skill of her generals, the courage of her men, and the sacrifice of her women by acknowledging the chief debt to be due the old tiger of France, Clemenceau.
Must we forever sit silent under partisan charges of waste, extravagance or mistake—many of them the necessary accompaniment of war—without any credit for the great and overwhelming result which we achieve? Let history begin to tell the truth now, and it will say that the common courage of our men and women, the combined efforts of capital and labor, the joint support of city and farm, all were welded into an irresistible force, by a leadership never surpassed in the history of parliamentary government. And that was the leadership which the Democratic party gave to the world when it joined its practical achievements with its high ideals behind Woodrow Wilson.
The hard won victory of American arms will prove but a hollow and unavailing triumph if we do not make certain that out of it shall come a greater liberty, a better America, and a surer peace—these three, and the greatest of these is peace, for peace means liberty for everyone. Peace means America forevermore. And peace means the bright new skies of that glorious day which was ushered in by the Master when He blessed a weary world: My peace I give unto you. My peace I leave with you.

"Recently my husband and I tried out Local 121 on Washington St. and had a wonderful experience. The service, ambience, food and drink were all excellent. The highlight of the evening, though, was the pork shank - it was so tender it literally fell off the bone, and the flavor and presentation were fantastic. It was the kind of meal that makes you want to flag down perfect strangers going to their seats and tell them to order it. I'm sure we could never re-create it, but we'd love to try! Could you please ask for a recipe, or some pointers on braising pork?"
You won't make these pork shanks on the spur of the moment. You can't, actually, because there is a two-step process that requires you start cooking a day ahead. That is why the flavor is layered and makes you want to scream, "Order the pork shanks!"
Thanks to Local 121 chef Julia Moore for taking the time to detail this process. Searing the pork does take patience, and a good ventilation system. She also explains how to make sauce and how to brine the meat. Read it all through once before you start cooking. A Dutch oven that can go from stovetop to oven is a must. Moore also recommends use of a hand or immersion blender. That may just be the best purchase of the year as professional chefs swear by them, especially when blending hot liquids. A stand-up blender isn't always the best thing.
Moore is a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America and came to Josh Miller's new restaurant from La Laiterie in Wayland Square.
The restaurant is a thing of beauty in the old Dreyfus Hotel. Miller wants the menu to be a tribute to what is great in Rhode Island. That's why the braising mixture includes Sakonnet Vineyard wines.

1/4 cup kosher salt
1 bay leaf, crushed
2 juniper berries, crushed
4 one-pound pork shanks
Mix the salt, bay leaf and juniper berries.
Rub each shank with the mixture. You should not use more than 2 tablespoons total for the four shanks. Let them sit overnight in the refrigerator secured in plastic wrap.
4 shanks brined overnight (see recipe)
For the braising liquid:
1/4 grapeseed or canola oil
2 cups peeled, chopped carrots
1 cup chopped yellow onion
1 cinnamon piece, toasted and ground
2 tablespoons whole coriander seeds toasted and ground
1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns toasted and ground
3 quarts plain unsalted chicken stock
2 cups Sakonnet vineyard Vidal Blanc wine
1 tablespoon orange zest chopped
Open the window and turn on the over-the-oven exhaust fan or expect the smoke detectors to go off during this process.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Use a Dutch oven. Add grapeseed or canola oil and heat on stovetop to nearly smoking. The heat can be adjusted lower or higher during this searing process. It's best to keep it as high as possible but be careful to avoid burning the meat or the bottom of the pan.
Place as many of the shanks that will fit in the pan in to the pan to sear each side of the shank. Ideally there should be enough room between the shanks so that they are not touching. When you first place the shanks in the pan wait a few minutes before moving them, the pan needs to return to the temperature it was before the shanks went in.
The goal of this process is to get a universal golden brown seared crust on each shank. The searing of the shanks will take anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes.
As each shank is completed remove it from the pan to a dish. When all shanks have been seared, add the carrot, onion, cinnamon, coriander and peppercorns into the grease remaining in the bottom of the pan. Cook the carrot and onion until soft.
Add in the wine and the chicken stock. After adding in the liquids make sure to use a wooden spoon to scrape the bottom of the pan to get any of the cooked on bits incorporated into the sauce. Bring the liquid up to a boil and remove from the heat.
Carefully place the shanks into the pot. You will want to have at least 2 inches from the top of the pot to the top of the liquid. Juices will be released from the meat and this level will rise.
Add the tablespoon of orange zest, making sure it is submerged or it will burn and be very bitter.
Place the pot with the shanks into the oven and turn the temperature down from 400 degrees to 300 degrees. Check the shanks in 30 minutes. The liquid should be just barely simmering. Continue cooking for 3-4 hours until the meat is tender, squishy soft on the bone.
Remove the meat from the cooking liquid and set aside. Carefully blend the liquid and vegetables using an immersion blender or blender until smooth. The liquid is very hot and will be very painful if you splash yourself or any curious on-looker, be especially careful blending hot liquids in an upright blender. Check for salt you might want to add a little to the sauce.
At this point you can serve the shanks immediately, or cool down the shanks and the sauce and reserve to have another day.

Vice President for Enrollment Management and Marketing
Bay Path University
Company Description:
When Bay Path opened its doors to students in 1897, it had a very clear goal: to provide a practical, affordable, and career-oriented education to meet the needs of companies, organizations, and communities. From the beginning, Bay Path prided itself on being entrepreneurial, constantly pushing the boundaries of the academic experience to fit the student... to start them on the road of success. We still do.
Today, that spirit and philosophy is more important than ever in higher education. At Bay Path, it's not just the number and breadth of undergraduate and graduate programs that defines us-and we have many-but it is our ability to connect the classroom to learning to leadership to experience to career that is at the core of what we do best. We know the work that needs to be done.
Bay Path University, an independent and not-for-profit institution, was named Among Fastest Growing Baccalaureate Colleges by the Chronicle of Higher Education Almanac, and is a member of the Women's College Coalition. With a main campus in Longmeadow, MA and four satellite locations, (East Longmeadow, Sturbridge, Concord, Springfield), Bay Path offers undergraduate, graduate (for women and men) degrees, and professional certificates.
We're committed to preparing our students to navigate a constantly changing world.

Job Description:
Job Summary:
Bay Path University invites applications for a dynamic visionary to serve in the newly created role as Vice President for Enrollment Management and Marketing under the leadership of our president-elect, Sandra Doran, Esq., who joins us in July 2020. The University community seeks a highly-skilled, experienced, innovative leader who will serve as the University's chief strategist on all matters related to enrollment and marketing. This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced leader with an entrepreneurial spirit, proven management record of implementing best practices, ability to manage complexity, fresh thinking, and an eye for innovation and creativity.
Leadership for Enrollment Management and Marketing
Considering the disruption of higher education, the extreme competition in the online marketplace, the changing demographics of college seekers, and declining high school age populations in New England, small liberal arts/career oriented colleges such as Bay Path University have to become increasingly networked; in sharing tools and resources, in creating partnerships, and accepting that students will continue to come in and out of the academy over their lifetime collecting learning from a variety of sources. A Vice President focused on enrollment management and marketing will need to have this lens when positioning Bay Path's set of offerings to a variety of audiences through its marketing, partnership and recruitment strategies.
Bay Path University is particularly poised to respond to this complicated landscape, considering its well established diversified portfolio of serving residential undergraduate students, operating The American Women's College (TAWC) powered by the SOUL model in offering accelerated undergraduate degree programs fully online, running an expansive set of graduate programs including in-demand healthcare fields, as well as delivering a framework established through Strategic Alliances to expand life-long learning opportunities. Graduate programs have been successfully developed to meet niches in disciplines and have targeted marketing strategies that are program specific. Residential, undergraduate programs have tended to rely on relationship building with high school guidance counselors and community college transfer offices. The American Women's College has primarily marketed with a brand strategy, attracting more of a degree completion persona seeking flexibility and affordability at the undergraduate level for career advancement. The undergraduate degree programs maintain a distinct niche in a crowded space by standing behind its long-time mission of empowering women with education. Additionally, the SOUL model, which has demonstrated success with its high-tech, high-touch approach with graduation rates 20% higher than its competitors, can be positioned as a methodology that could be delivered in a variety of environments serving students of all ages and backgrounds. Strategies of promoting partnerships with organizations that link employers to education partners who promote education benefits to pipelines of employees, remain a plausible opportunity for Bay Path University having demonstrated the efficacy of its methods in promoting degree completion and student success. Additionally, the delivery of the online course catalog may gain increasing visibility through course sharing consortiums. Positioning offerings to a variety of market strategies and clearly demonstrating our value proposition, both regionally and beyond, are on-going priorities for a leader in this area.

Sometimes, you need to see someone loving a thing before you can love it, too – so says the character of Don Miller in the big screen version of his best-selling memoir Blue Like Jazz. (See fellow blogger Enuma Okoro's review of the film here).
The movie, which hits theaters in some 25 cities come April 13th, tackles many of the probing questions of Christian identity – is it a stable journey that progresses linearly from baptism to the grave without doubt or duplicity? is it sustainable when dislocated into inhospitable environments? and is it enough to follow in the biblical footsteps of the early Christian disciple who confessed "Lord I believe but help my unbelief?"
Understandably, the movie weaves these narrative threads together with more panache but less nuance than the book. As the director Steve Taylor put it at last night's advance screening in Raleigh, movies aren't made of the middle ground but gain their force by the contrast of extremes. Don himself admitted freely the movie is fiction.
But aren't the middles infinitely more mysterious, more memorizing in their mundane-ness? Admittedly, I'd rather watch the awkward and unscripted dialogue of a movie like Blue Valentine that makes you cringe in its bleakness rather than the latest rom-com with all its aspirational aesthetics. Certainly Miller's upbringing as a Baptist Texan and education as a student at Reed College – "the most godless campus in America" – was already fodder enough to propel the force behind the movie's making. Yet despite adding the plot twists of a philandering youth pastor and a lonely lesbian, the movie remarkably held on to its jazz-like subtleties whilst still being a stylish production.
When a young youth pastor in the audience asked during the Q&A that followed the screening how she could show this PG-13 movie to her students to whom she preaches no cussing, no drinking, and no sex before marriage, Taylor and Miller answered kindly that despite what she preaches her students will soon be, if they're not already, exposed to the incongruity of their Christian identities with those foisted upon them by the world. This is no Christian movie with saccharine smiles and pat answers. It invites inquisition. It invites improvisation.
Sometimes, you need to see someone loving a thing before you can love it, too. Perhaps this is the sentiment of the apostle Paul's oft-used phrase pistus christou – translated in many Bibles to mean our "faith in Christ" but more accurately understood as "the faithfulness of Christ." The distinction is profound, for like Don, we do not conjure up belief with the snap of a finger or the bending of a knee. Rather, we see someone, someone like Jesus, loving God first before we can begin to pattern our life on their faithfulness. And so we step on their feet and learn the beat until we are emboldened to freestyle.

8 May 2007 (Radio Singapore International) – RSI's series Discovering Singapore, features an interview with Singaporean archaeologist Lim Chen Sian, about what archaeologists do, and what's there to find in Singapore.
Archaeology in Singapore
Would you believe that beneath the concrete jungles of cosmopolitan Singapore, we can find white sand dating back to the republic's early days of Sang Nila Utama? Or even the discovery of forts that probably existed during the British colonial era?
Just some of the unusual discoveries by Singapore's rare breed of archaeologists like Lim Chen Sian. With their trusty digging tools, these archaeologists attempt to uncover more behind Singapore's rich historical past.
But what does an archaeologist in Singapore really do? And are there really that many treasures to dig up in the republic?

He walked into my childhood bedroom as I laid in my bed. His strong, solid form enveloping me in a hug. He's much younger looking than the last time I saw him.
"What are you doing here?" I asked as he headed to the window, pulling back the drapes, checking on the raging storm outside.
"I wanted to make sure you were okay." He answered returning to me, hugging me again as he kissed me on the forehead.
"What's it like?" I asked. Not giving him time to answer, I excitedly follow with another question. "Did you meet God?"
He chuckled, slightly shaking his head in an 'I really can't answer that' fashion. Then a sly smile crossed his lips.
"I may have made a friend up there." He answers .
I give him a knowing smile.
"I really have to go." He says with a twinge of regret. Not for himself, but for me, knowing that I don't want to be left behind without him.
I grabbed his hand one last time. "I love you daddy." I cried as he walked out the door.
My eyes open in darkness, my breathe filling the void. I can still feel his loving, solid embrace. A comforting warmth washes over me. It's been a nice visit.

Straddling Bus: The Eco-friendly Public Transport Of The Future
Traffic jam is a common problem to big cities around the globe. To minimized traffic, various alternatives are being considered and the Straddling Bus cab probably is one of the best. The Straddling Bus is a public transport powered by electricity and sun. This wonderful bus transport is a two story bus and carries its passengers on the upper part of the bus. To lower part on the other hand is a hallow space the allows other vehicles to pass through, thus the Straddling bus will travel and stop without blocking the way of the other vehicles. The straddling bus is a lot cheaper to build as compared to subways. It also minimized air pollution as it is an electric powered one. presented at the 13th Beijing International High-Tech Expo in May 2010, the Straddling Bus will be put into pilot use at the Mentougou District of Beijing. What more? the bus has the ability to carry 1200-1400 passengers at a time and is known to reduce traffic jam by 20-30%.

Biomedics Toric Reviews
All day long freshness
I love how my Biomedics Toric lenses are able to stay fresh all day long, which is often 12-13 hours for me. My eyes never feel dry throughout the day, which is awesome!
I got a fantastic deal on my Biomedics Toric
I got my Biomedics Toric contacts for such a great price on here! It's a shame I had been buying contacts for so much more in the past.
impressive lenses for astigmatisms
Biomedics Toric contacts are perfect for anyone with astigmatism. They will always fit the shape of your eyes, and will not feel unnatural whatsoever.
nice high quality contacts
I find that Biomedics Toric Lenses are great choice in that they're not so expensive you can't swap them out regularly, but they're also made well, so they last longer than a lot of the others. They're tear-resistant and they're very comfortable.
good luck with Biomedics
I can pretty easily wear Biomedics toric lenses for two weeks. I wear mine daily for 12-15 hours on average and have had good luck with them.
Great contacts
I can wear Biomedics toric contacts a bit more than they recommend sometimes, but I have sensitive eyes so I prefer to change them out frequently. Great contacts!
Lovin my lenses
I've been very happy with Biomedics toric contact lenses. I just started buying these online because I found my doctor's prices to be outrageous.
awesome lens, never problems
My Biomedics toric contacts are easy to wear, comfortable & easy to take off. Never had an issue with them. Have yet to have one tear on me.
Very nice for astigmatism
I definitely recommend Biomedics toric contact lenses to anyone who has astigmatism. I love mine and they work very well.
Awesome for comfort and clarity
The top two qualities bio medics toric contacts, for me are comfort and clarity. I tried another brand that are recommended for people with dry eyes and I couldn't even have the heat on in the house or office without them drying out. I found these to be the best in terms of both comfort and clarity
Awesome Lenses!
I wear Biomedic Toric lenses for about 10 days and change them out. They do go a full 14 like they say, but my maximum comfort level maxes out in 10. Other than that these are awesome lenses.
Great deal
Biomedics Toric Contact Lenses are such a great deal. I compared these to Freshlook and a few others and thought these were the best value.
Love these contact lenses!
Love these! I have been a customer of biomedics toric contacts for a few year now. I bought these here because the service has always been great and I get my contacts on time.
Comfortable and easy to put in
I have trouble putting in contact lenses; these are relatively easy for me to put in. They are quite comfortable and I haven't had any problems. I do have sensitive eyes and eye allergies and I can wear these lenses for several hours longer than other lenses I've tried.
Biomeidcs Toric are great contacts for astigmatism
The Biomedics Toric contact lenses are great if you want to correct your astigmatism and get a comfortable lens but you don't want to spend a fortune on contact lenses. My sight with these lenses is always perfect and the stability is unbelievable which is very important in a toric lens as your vision never gets blurry when your lenses move. The comfort that theses Biomedics Toric offer is incomparable the other toric on the market. Truly a great product.
Very comfortable.
I've tried a lot of lenses; some made my eyes dry, others made me teary. Biomedics Toric was very good. Very comfortable to wear. My eyes don't feel tired even after long periods of wearing the lens. Sometimes I forget I'm wearing them. Great product.
Product Information
Have you dismissed wearing soft contact lenses because you have astigmatism? Theres good news for you toric contact lenses are specifically designed with astigmatism in mind. Unlike spherical contact lenses, toric contacts are designed with different powers in their meridians in order to correct the variations of nearsightedness or farsightedness within the eye. In addition, toric contacts are designed to only move vertically and not rotate with blinking, keeping the contact lens snug against your eye.
Because of these factors, being fitted with toric lenses takes a higher level of skill from an eye-care professional and may involve trial and error with multiple brands to find the best match. However, it doesnt have to be a huge hassle. Patients with astigmatism can now enjoy maximum comfort and performance from soft contact lenses with CooperVision Biomedics Toric contact lenses. As you know, the condition is a refractive error in the eye that often causes blurred vision for the patient. Biomedics Toric contact lenses are specially designed to provide clear vision and exceptional comfort for a full day of wear. With a two-week wear cycle, you can also enjoy optimum quality and convenience by switching to a fresh new pair every fourteen days.
So what specifically makes Biomedics Toric contacts a unique and superior soft contact lens for astigmatism? An incredibly thin, patented edge ensures lasting comfort and limited irritation. Indeed, Biomedics Toric contact lenses are considered the most stable toric lens on the market because of their crispness, clarity, and long-lasting quality of visual acuity. They contain 55 percent water and 45 percent Ocufilcon D, an innovative silicone hydrogel. A recent clinical study revealed that eight out of ten patients prefer the Biomedics Toric brand to their current lens in terms of overall satisfaction. For simple and hassle-free handling, theyre tinted from edge to edge for higher visibility, but will not alter the eyes appearance. Plus, to help provide additional protection from the sun, Biomedics Toric contact lenses are UV-absorbing.
Talk to your eye-care professional to see if Biomedics Toric contact lenses are available for your unique needs. But when it comes to buying them at the lowest cost with quick home delivery and excellent customer service, shop Lens.com. Due to their higher complexity of design, toric contacts are more expensive to replace than spherical contacts.

Two weeks of moving start today…
We closed on our "farmette" on Friday, and now we will spend the next two weeks moving, emptying the townhouse and getting it ready for sale (say, are you looking for a nice townhouse in Shepherdstown, WV? Let me know.)
The thought of entering a life as somewhat of a farmer has been entering my consciousness as I plan to repair the very old chicken house on the property so we can go out in April (or earlier) to get a dozen or so live chicks. Sure looking forward to eggs by the end of the summer.
If this makes the blog come out at odd times of the day in the next week or so (no internet connected to the new house yet) then we will have to live with it.

text: Cape Town - David Douglas Des van Rooyen, the man President Jacob Zuma named as Finance Minister Nhlanhla Nene's successor in a shock announcement on Wednesday, has been described by economists as largely unknown, with little policy experience.But according to the ANC, Van Rooyen holds a string of qualifications and has held a number of leadership positions in the ANC from 1994 to 2007.Prior to this he was an MK operative and soldier, and held various leadership positions in Cosas and Khutsong Student Congress. He was also a UDF representative and NUM member.His list of qualifications include:• Advance Business Management Diploma;• Diploma in Municipal Governance, • Certificate in Municipal Governance, • Certificate in Councillor Development, • Certificate in Municipal Finance,• Certificate in Economic & Public Finance and • Masters Degree in Public Development and Management.According to People's Assembly, which credits the source of information as anc.org.za, the University of London conferred an MSc Finance (Economic Policy) to Van Rooyen on July 30 2014. He also recently acquired a certificate in investment analysis and portfolio management from UNISA. But economists (and the market) are not convinced. Peter Attard Montalto, emerging markets economist at Nomura International, said late on Wednesday the National Treasury's standing has been eroded by the choice of Nene's successor."Van Rooyen is a member of the portfolio standing committee on finance in parliament. He has been a member of the committee since 2011 and so, while aware of fiscal and National Treasury issues, he has no central government experience, and no provincial government experience."From what we have seen he has not been particularly vocal or independent from the ANC while on the committee or in the ANC."Citi Research economist Gina Schoeman said Van Rooyen, who was Whip of the Standing Committee on Finance and Whip of the Economic Transformation Cluster, holds little policy experience. "However, he is a veteran of the ANC's military wing (MK) and thus we would infer (him) to be close to Zuma."Montalto described Van Rooyen as a former mayor of a small town in Gauteng of around 197 000 people."He does not appear to have had strong policy making credentials within the ANC structures over the last 20 years in the way the previous three finance ministers did."He has been a member of the economic development cluster of the ANC but as a 'whip', which normally implies a more political than policy role," said Montalto.Montalto said Van Rooyen was a surprise choice because expectations were that Deputy Finance Minister Mcebisi Jonas would get the job (as Nene did), being trained in the ways of the National Treasury and how the institution works."Bringing in an outsider makes it more of a 'pure' political appointment, in our view."Schoeman added: "We expect Van Rooyen is likely to facilitate the type of consumption-led expenditure that Zuma needs to win back lost political support, which is negative for fiscal policy and weakens Treasury's institutional strength further."Schoeman said Nene's removal is not good news for sentiment and heightens policy uncertainty again, just one week after S&P's negative outlook announcement last week. The currency reflected this, weakening immediately on the announcement, from around R14.50/$ to as low as R15.38 before settling at R14.94 by midnight on Thursday.READ: Tito Mboweni: Why SA needs to fight 'junk' status with all we've gotAccording to People's Assembly, Van Rooyen has personal interests in soccer, golf, tennis, reading and hunting.

Everything your business owns should be classed an asset
The balance sheet is simply a list of these assets. Some of them will be intangible (e.g. stocks or patents), while others will be actual items like machinery or stock. Any cash or inventory that the business currently owns is referred to as being its current assets.
Fixed assets are purchases that have ongoing use over a number of years e.g. computers (including high-cost extras like printers and software) or office furniture. These are subject to a process known as depreciation which involves calculating wear and tear on the object over the years that your business has used it. Not all fixed assets are subject to depreciation – land or real estate will often increase in value year-on-year.
Depreciation is important in order to avoid the value of assets being overstated on the Balance Sheet – a piece of equipment is worth far less in its fifth year of use than when it was first purchased.
To find out how the Balance Sheet in our Accounting Software could help your business, speak to one of our Specialists today.

If you're looking to launch a new MasterCard in the current economy, let's face it, you better either have some damn good incentives, or a super hot launch party complete with requisite celeb stylists and rock stars. Funnily enough, just last night, Citi and American Airlines managed to pull that off all under the stunning backdrop of Grand Central Station in New York, where they've brought The Admirals Club lounge to Vanderbilt Hall
Commuters were drawn to peek in at the buzzy atmosphere as Gavin DeGraw belted out his hit 'Not Over You', and whilst this Stylist was swooning over her new musical crush, she also managed to sneak in a quick free 'messy up-do' by celeb stylists Joel Warren and Edward Tricomi of Warren Tricomi fame.
After a little banter with the boys about their own rock band adventures, the latest on the New York club scene, and some advice on creating my 'up-do' at home in 5 minutes with a curling iron….yeah right…it was time to pay attention to Citi's Terry O'Neil.
So here's the gig The Citi Executive/AAdvantage World Elite MasterCard hands you a bunch of member privileges as well as let's you spend money – what's not to like?
There's Admirals Club membership privileges, no foreign transaction fees on purchases, enhanced airport experiences like priority check in and pre-boarding, as well as waived baggage charges for your first domestic checked bag. Quite frankly they had me at 'priority check in'…but Gavin DeGraw did probably swing it for them on the night.
Clearly Terry O'Neil must have seen a few airport lounges in his time, so when asked which is his favorite globally he plumped for JFK.
As for the style on the night? Apart from Messrs. Warren & Tricomi who belie their years and ooze effortless style, we saw this seasons polka dots in dresses and pumps and the most gorgeous vintage booties amongst the city suits.
The Admirals Club lounge is at Vanderbilt Hall until Wednesday, opening daily at 11.30am, so pop on in on your commute home.
