What our Clients Say
I was a first home buyer when I first met Matt. His professionalism, punctuality and attention to detail helped me purchase my first place. He has since helped me with putting together a plan to help me to continue to grow and build my wealth in the future
I would and have recommended Matt to my friends & https:// who are looking for financial advice as he provides great quality service I trust. Thanks Matt for helping me out & for your continuing care & support.
I contacted Matt at Custodian Financial Advice in relation to changing from my employer provided super fund to something more personal. Something I'd have more control of in relation to world markets and how my money is invested.
While meeting with Matt and working through what I had in place, we went a step further and put together a new plan for my retirement that will have me a lot better off financially in 20 years than I ever thought possible.
Honest, current financial advice makes a massive difference. I should have done this years ago. At least my money is where it should be now. At work.
Matt's advice helped us to finally understand the importance of financial security and personal insurance for our future. As we both work long hours Matt was able to accommodate and meet outside the traditional 'office' hours which was a huge convenience for us.
Matt is always prompt and courteous with requests for information and/or follow-up (with a little bit of comedy thrown in). We have never hesitated to pass on Matt's details when the topic of finances comes up and to our delight we still have all our https:// and friends ?.
"We had Matt to come and meet with us to discuss refinancing our home loan with a view to also purchase an investment property. Matt's advice was fantastic and he helped secure us a much better home loan for our principle place of residence. Additionally, Matt also advised us on restructuring our superannuation accounts to help save us money in fees and charges and also worked with us to ensure we have adequate insurance cover to protect us against anything going wrong. This really gave us piece of mind that we could move on with investing knowing that we had our superannuation and insurances all covered.
12 months later we reached out to Matt to help us secure a loan for our investment purchase and again this was very easy. Matt handled everything for us (and being overseas this helped a great deal!) and very quickly our loan was approved at a fantastic interest rate. Our initial financial plan was then revised and updated to keep in line with our long term goals and aspirations. This is all part of his on-going service with no additional charge.
The one thing that really impressed us with Matt is that we can reach out to him at any time if we have any questions or need any information and he is happy to help, not to mention fast! We will definitely be reaching out to Matt for our next property purchase and have recommended him to many of our friends and https://."
We would like to acknowledge what a fantastic job Matt Young has done for us. He helped us organising both the refinancing of our home loan and more recently our life, TPD Income Protection insurance and restructuring our superannuation
Matt was very impressive, from putting together strategies, to his knowledge of the products, his organisation skills and most important to us his communication throughout the whole process on all accounts !! He has the ability to articulate complicated strategies and ideas into ever day language making it simple for us to understand. We would highly recommend Matt from Custodian Financial Advice to anyone looking for help with at finance and financial advice.
My wife and I have been very impressed with the professional and personal approach that Custodian Financial Services have provided us. We have been carefully guided with clear financial information throughout the entire chain of events that occurs when buying and re-financing a property. With both of us working full time and with a young https://, we would have found it almost impossible to deal with a traditional financial institution on our own. Matt was able to accomodate us with home visits that suited us, with clear and refreshingly honest advice. Matt was also able to provide us with much needed help sorting out our superannuation as well as organising life insurance policies - items that are now very relevant to us, especially with a mortgage and young https:// to support. Matt has always been proactive with our case, with regular communication...such a rarity these days.
We have no hesitation in highly recommending Custodian Financial services to anyone.
Cheers mate..
"We were recently put in contact with Matt through our mortgage broker to set up dreaded financial structures and insurance after purchasing our first home. Matt's communication and professionalism was second to none. Matt was and is efficient, friendly and knowledgeable in all areas, which made the process easier for us to understand and set up appropriately to our current circumstances. Custodian financial advice offers honest, quality and affordable financial advice. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Custodian Financial Advice to https:// and friends.
Matt provided us with sound financial advice, he found solutions to our financial needs & goals. Matt delivered this to us in way that was easy to understand & uncomplicated. In an financial environment that is shadowed in uncertainty we have no doubt that our goals are attainable with the help of Matt.

it is indeed a good and rich course. but i didn't like the idea of a) peer graded assignments and b) not having exams on each part so that we could feel the sense of a real course not just a huge amount of information without evaluating how much did we understand from it.

I am currently in my second year of counselling and I found this course really helpful to understand the social impact of mental health and illness. The course is very informative, with excellent learning resources. I have recommended this course my peers, I am a full-time teacher, as a way of understanding the extended context of our learners.
I thoroughly enjoyed to course and would take any other course taught by Charmaine. Her teaching style and passion for subject knowledge hand me hooked on the course right from the start!

I found this course very interesting and engaging. It looks at how mental health and illness are socially constructed and how this can lead to stigmatisation and negative outcomes for the person with a mental health condition. The other side of the coin shows how when support networks are in place and when mental disorders are de-stigmatised the outcomes for many people are considerably improved. My thanks to the educator and course organisers for this informative course.

Thank you to the University of Toronto and to Charmaine Williams for this very useful contextualising of mental health and illness. Having experienced a recent mental health crisis with a family member, this really helped to frame our experience in a new and valuable light. I also feel validated having responded to my experience by becoming a peer advocate teaching psychoeducation courses for carers of loved-one's with mental health difficulties in emotion regulation. It is certainly helping me, knowing that it can help others and keep strained families in tact and emotionally available to one another.

An amazingly enriching course from beginning to end. The social context used in the course is based on a global perspective, touches on a wide variety of social dynamics (such as feminism, modern day colonialism, theory of gender, and ableism) and delivered in an interesting, encouraging and light-hearted manner. Professor Williams shares with you a fair and insightful critique on modern understanding of mental health and illness and on how we arrived to where we are today. I would highly recommend this course to professionals and beginners alike. Thank you Professor Williams!

Charmaine Williams is an excellent Instructor. I have taken other courses on Coursera and the structure of the readings, lessons and assignments are very well organized. The Social Context of Mental Health and Illness will really open your eyes to how the world see's individuals diagnosed with a mental illness and what is society has done and is doing to those diagnosed. So many factors contribute to Mental health and Mental illness and this course will definitely give you a greater understanding. Thank-you Charmaine Williams!! Keep of the good work.

it was a great learning experience going through this course on "Social Context of Mental Health and Illness". The lecturer is excellent, the way she lectures and her language are outstanding. my overall understanding on the different perspectives on mental health and illness is changed. the course is good opportunity to understand the concept of mental health in different cultures and social contexts. personally suggest that the course should be taken up by all those who would work in a psychiatry setting.

Neurological Intensive Care
Prof. Dr Stephan Vielhaber MD
(Deputy Medical Director)
Dr. Claudius Bartels
Our range of treatments
The Neurological Intensive Care clinic deals with the diagnosis and treatment of acute life-threatening primary and secondary illnesses of the central and peripheral nervous systems. Some indications for intensive medical monitoring (and, if necessary, intubation and artificial respiration) include disruptions of consciousness, loss of protect ive reflexes, increases in intracranial pressure due to large cerebral infarcts or inflammatory illnesses, neuromuscular weakness, and persistent convulsion.
Patient care is interdisciplinary, and is carried out with the direct collaboration of colleagues in the Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care clinic. About 80 to 100 patients with primary neurological illnesses are treated annually by the Neurological Intensive Care clinic. Patients with space occupying cerebral infarctions, intracranial bleedings, and subarachnoidal hemorrhages are the most frequently admitted, followed by patients with convulsive status epilepticus, myasthenic
crisis and severe forms of Guillain-Barré syndrome. Other conditions leading to admission are infl ammatory central nervous system diseases (meningoencephalitis), metabolic or hypoxic encephalopathies, as well as poisoning by psychotropic drugs. Admitted patients come from Saxony-Anhalt
and adjacent parts of Lower Saxony.
Diagnostic Capabilities
The ward's diagnostic capabilities include the monitoring of EEGs and evoked cortical responses, ENG/EMG, and extraand transcranial Dopplerand duplex sonography. In addition, if indicated, extended cerebral monitoring (ICP, EEG, BIS) as well as hemodynamic monitoring (PiCCO, Vigileo) can be carried out. Modern imaging procedures, such as CT (computer tomography), MRI, angiography (including MR spect roscopy) and perfusion measurement, are available through a collaboration with the Institute for Neuroradiology. Cerebrospinal fluid diagnostics with advanced neurobiochemical markers take place in the wards internal neurobiochemical laboratory.
The intensive care ward off ers up-to-date mechanical respirators. Neuroimmunological diseases can be treated on site by means of plasmapheresis or immuneoabsorption. A broad spectrum of options is offered for the treatment of neurovascular diseases. For patients with intracranial pressure increases following cardiopulmonary resuscitation, on-site therapeutic hypothermia is possible (Arctic Sun 2000). External cerebrospinal fluid drainage and decompressive craniotomy (opening of the cranium) to relieve excessive intracranial pressure can be carried out by neurosurgery colleagues. Physical therapy exercises, as well as Ergotherapy and speech therapy, are provided by two experienced physiotherapists.

This is one of these posts that are difficult for me to write. At the same time it needs to be written. I have something that recently I've been convicted on as being wrong for me. I am in no way judging anyone. This has been more of a personal journey for me. I've been working more at following God's direction for my life and the life of my family. That includes what we watch on TV.
Ephesians 4:14-15 "That we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head-Christ-."
For the past year my husband and I have enjoyed Downton Abbey. There has been many episodes where we were almost embarrassed to admit we were fans of this show. We would not let our children watch the show because of some of the content we had seen. What is that saying to my children? It's OK for us to watch it? Why? Because we are older? More experienced? Just like my children, we are followers of Jesus Christ. Would this show be pleasing in the eyes of Christ? Would I be watching this if Jesus was sitting in the room with me? The answer to that is NO. Do you know that Jesus is sitting here with me. Me as a follower of Him. He is with me no matter where I go and what I do.
Ephesians 4:17-18 "This I say, therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you should no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles walk, in the futility of their mind, having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart."
We are to be set apart from the world. I got sucked into the show because it was a period show and I really love them. I kept telling myself, "It's ok everyone else is watching it." No it doesn't make it ok. We are forever telling our children that we must be different then those who do not follow Christ. So why do I get to live my life at a different standard? Yes, I admit we are the adults. Our children are not mature enough for certain things. I think you know what I'm saying here.
Ephesians 5:15 "See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil."
The Bible clearly tells us we must stay away from the things that are considered OK on the show. Adultery (Exodus 20:14), homosexuality (1 Corinthians 6:9), lying (Ephesians 4:25), cheating (Proverbs 13:11), love of money (1 Timothy 6:10), gossip (1Timothy 5:13)...the list goes on and on. Downton Abbey makes all of these things seem ok. Well I know these things are not ok for me.
So I am here to ask for forgiveness. Please forgive me for causing anyone of you to stumble in your walk with God. I only want pure and please things to God to enter my body. Like my parents always told me, "Garbage in means garbage out."

bless you for your open, honest heart ... I think sometimes we think because we are adults, we can "handle" the movies or music with a message that we would NEVER allow our children to see or hear. I know I am guilty too.

This has been a big week for singer/songwriter Jay Brannan. First off, Jay released his first studio album in over two years, 'Always, Then, & Now'. I am still giving it a listen, and will have my thoughts about it to you soon. But Until that happens, I thought I would share another exciting part of the week, when Jay released the music video for the first single, "Square One". The song is classic Brannan, taking a smart and hard look at life as we know it, with sparse instrumentation that allows Jay's voice to truly shine. It also has his trademark self-deprecating eye, but there is also a new lightness, and maybe even a brightness from Jay. I have to admit, seeing a smile or two in the music video was a wonderful new image I could grow to love. Speak of love, I do really enjoy this song, and the music video enhances that feeling. The song will go into my July playlist, and I can't wait to hear it again. This is Jay Brannan with "Square One".
"Square One" can be found on Jay's latest release, 'Always, Then , & Now'. The album can be purchased from iTunes and Amazon. You can purchase autographed copies of the album, as well as other 'bundled' goodies at Jay's online Store. To learn more about Jay Brannan, visit his official website. Be sure to check out his touring schedule, as he is currently out there playing in support of the new album. You can also 'follow' him on Twitter, and 'like' him on Facebook.

Most of us can't wait to plan our summer vacation and one of the most important aspects is the period in which we are going to go. This decision actually depends on many aspects and below I am going to remind you some of them.
First of all we have to see when we can take time off from work. This depends on the work load, on when your colleagues decide to go on holiday and how many days of vacation you have. After finding out all these things all you have to do is make an application that needs to be approved.
After you have finished with this detail, you have to decide where you want to go. There are a number of places that might interest you but you should find out which one is the best for you and for your needs. When taking this decision you should think how extended your budget is and whether the place offers all the entertainment and the activities you want for yourself and for your family.
Taking into consideration the fact that the most expensive months for the summer vacation are July and August you could plan your vacation at the end of August or maybe in September. This are actually the best periods if you decide to go somewhere warm because in July and August the temperatures are very high and you might have to spend all your vacation in the shade or indoors.
But whenever you decide to go the most important thing of all is to have fun and to relax with your family or with your friends. There will always be things that you won't like in your vacation but these should not influence the way you feel. Try to look at the bright side and just enjoy yourself.

Hey Guys,
'Tis the season to be finishing up your application process and it seems like every year I have a couple of uber-conscientious students asking me for application advice. So this year, I thought I'd spread the joy and share my last minute tips for all, both naughty and nice. Above all, remember that if you want to get the fat envelope present you're hoping for, it's paramount to be yourself! In addition, here are some tips to help make your winter break go smoothly…
· When you're writing your personal essays and short answers, be sure to have a friend/teacher/parent edit your work before you submit it. Yes, checking for grammar and spelling IS important (you don't want to look careless), but you also want to get a sense for whether or not your writing SOUNDS like you. If it comes across as too wordy, over-written, or cliché, it's time to edit.
· Second, take a minute and think about telling us a little more about who you are in the "additional information" section of the Common App. Most students ignore that part and I think it's a missed opportunity to shed some light about yourself. Tell us about a hobby you have, explain a grade trend or choice in classes, or share your to-do list for life… anything goes!
· Don't forget to double-check with your teachers and counselors that they have submitted their recommendations for you. Many students forget that these wonderful educators are writing dozens (maybe even a hundred) recs this time of year. Tell them how grateful you are for their time and check-in to be sure that your letter has been sent and isn't hiding under a lump of coal somewhere.
· The clock struck twelve and all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even a… Whitman applicant? Don't procrastinate. I know– it sounds obvious, but you would be surprised at how many of your peers put off submitting their application until the last second. I'm talking 2 minutes 'til midnight on January 15! Don't be that student. Think about how great it will feel to go back to school after the New Year knowing you've already submitted your complete application.
Good luck with everything Friends. We know you're working hard! Keep it up: graduation is just around the corner.

The children raced from table to table in the auditorium of Congregation Tifereth Israel, their hands tinkering with crafts, crayons and carnival games. They spun around wildly in the makeshift gaga pit — the Israeli version of handball — and exchanged fits of laughter as they played in the bounce house. Many had dressed for the occasion, wearing costumes you might see at Halloween, which added another aspect of fun to the party.
The unbridled silliness, Rabbi Irwin Huberman said, is the essence of the Jewish holiday of Purim, which was celebrated at the congregation with a carnival last Sunday.
"It's mandated in the Jewish religion that you must be happy this time of the year," Huberman said. "So much of the time, religion is about seriousness, but this is an opportunity once a year to let your hair down a little bit, dress up in costume and have fun."
Purim, which was observed on Wednesday and Thursday this year, commemorates events that occurred in ancient Persia over 2,000 years ago, when Jews evaded persecution from King Ahasuerus and his minster Haman (see box). Purim, Huberman said, "Falls into the category of, as many Jewish holidays, they tried to kill us, they failed, let's eat!"
The celebration began with an original play performed in the sanctuary, which featured characters from the Purim story competing in a bake-off to create the tastiest hamantaschen, a three-cornered pastry that is traditionally eaten on the holiday. Congregants recited songs and prayers about Purim, and then crowded the auditorium for the carnival.
Perhaps the most special part of the event — aside from Cantor Gustavo Gitlin twisting balloons into animal shapes with ease — was the congregation's focus on inclusivity; that is, inviting children of all needs and abilities to attend the Purim party. "As a father of a 39-year-old son with autism," Huberman said, "it's important that every child and adult be happy in the way that is appropriate to them."
Chad Altman, of Glen Head, vice president of education at Congregation Tifereth Israel, said that inclusivity is a major pillar of the congregation, and is often reflected in its services and programs. "We're part of a larger community," he said, "and we want to teach our children respect for all, regardless of background, and get them to recognize that they can play cooperatively with everyone, even [those] with disability."
As the carnival continued, Debbie Ilberg, of Glen Head, took note of her son, Matthew, playing with his peers. A wide smile could be seen under the snout of his dog costume. Matthew, who has autism, attends Hebrew school classes at Congregation Tifereth Israel and works with an aide who provides him with support. "At Congregation Tifereth Israel, with their philosophy toward children with special needs, Matthew isn't 'that kid with autism,'" his mother said. "He's Matthew, one of the sixth-graders."
This philosophy is in keeping with the congregation's commitment to providing anyone, regardless of need, the chance to practice the Jewish faith. Huberman said that Congregation Tifereth Israel would soon offer religious programs equipped for those with special needs, including bar and bat mitzvah services.
"Everyone has the right to find the core of religion inside them, and sometimes we get lost in the rules and regulations when, really, all religion wants us to be is happy and grounded and satisfied," Huberman said. "Even if it means that [the children] say one blessing or just a few words or have some reason to smile, for them that's their happiness."

Convention of States Project Provides Mechanism to Implement Mark Levin's "Liberty Amendments" Strategy Citizens for Self-Governance Launches New Project to Call a Convention of States
PURCELLVILLE, Va., Aug. 15, 2013 – Citizens for Self-Governance (CSG) is pleased to announce the launching of its Convention of States Project (COS), which offers a grassroots plan to implement the important ideas Mark Levin has begun to publicly advocate. Levin's bestselling book, Liberty Amendments, is opening the eyes of many Americans to the possibility of using the power of the States, under the Constitution, to rein in the abuses of power by the federal government.
COS believes Washington, D.C. is broken and can only be fixed if the states call a convention of states to propose constitutional amendments that would curtail the runaway power of the federal government. Article V of the Constitution says that if 34 states submit applications for a convention on the same subject, Congress must call such a convention.
Historical and legal precedent dictate that delegates at this convention can only propose amendments that align with the original subject. If the states call a convention for proposing a balanced budget amendment, for example, delegates may only discuss a balanced budget amendment.
Rather than calling an Article V convention for a particular amendment, COS seeks to call a Convention of States for a particular subject—limiting the jurisdiction and power of the federal government. This strategy would allow the states to formally consider almost all of Mark Levin's "Liberty Amendments," giving delegates the freedom to propose the necessary amendments to stop the runaway power of Washington, D.C.
"Of [Mark Levin's] 11 proposed amendments, ten would be germane at the Convention of States using the CSG model application," said Michael Farris, Senior Fellow for Constitutional Studies at CSG.
These include amendments limiting Congressional and Supreme Court terms of office, restoring the Senate, limiting federal taxing and spending (two amendments), limiting the federal bureaucracy, promoting free enterprise, giving states direct authority to amend the Constitution and check Congress, and protecting the vote. Only Levin's property rights amendment would not be eligible for discussion, Farris said.
"Our model would not be limited to Levin's proposed texts; the COS could consider other proposals as well so long as they relate to the subject matter of reducing the power of Washington, D.C., and imposing fiscal restraint on the federal government."
"Of all the Article V projects that have been proposed, ours is the only one that has the breadth to actually solve the core problems caused by the federal government's persistent abuse of its power," Farris added.
The leadership of COS also believes grassroots mobilization is the key to calling a convention of states, and they will rely heavily on American citizens to push this project forward. Farris (founder of the Home School Legal Defense Association) and CSG President Mark Meckler (co-founder of the Tea Party Patriots) have years of experience in this arena, giving the COS project a clear advantage and heightening the chance of success.

"I know you're all wondering why I called you together," David Crosby said to peals of laughter as he sat down. Mr. Crosby, the crinkly folk-rock eminence, had come to Lil' Frankie's in the East Village for dinner with a half-dozen members of the group he once hailed on Twitter as "quite possibly the most advanced band in the world ... certainly the best I've heard/seen."
That would be Snarky Puppy, a barnstorming, groove-centric instrumental act with a rabid fan base and a blithely unplaceable style. And if the name doesn't ring a bell, it's probably just a matter of time.
Snarky Puppy, which won a recent Grammy and is up for another one this month, has carved out an improbably strong niche with its brand of revved-up jazz fusion. The group's style, a convergence of high precision and whimsy, makes it a quintessential live band — even most of its studio albums were made with an audience in the room. The sessions are filmed, for release on DVD and YouTube, which is how the band's audience ratcheted up to global scale. A D.I.Y. juggernaut, it has a new label — GroundUp, with international distribution through Universal Music Classics — that will release "Family Dinner Volume Two," the group's 10th album, on Friday, Feb. 12.
The band had convened before a screening of the film that accompanies the record, and fittingly, there was room at the table for Mr. Crosby and a few other artists who appear on the LP: the guitarist Charlie Hunter and the singer-songwriters Becca Stevens and Chris Turner. The album's guest roster also includes the Malian Afro-pop singer Salif Keita, the Afro-Peruvian folk singer Susana Baca and the neotraditional Swedish band Vasen.
That eclectic coalition, which intermingles throughout the album, feels true to the spirit of Snarky Puppy, a band rooted first and foremost in gut-level cohesion. "There's a humility in their approach to music, which is special in today's climate," said Lalah Hathaway, who shared a Grammy for best R&B performance with the band in 2014. (Snarky Puppy is nominated this year for best contemporary instrumental album, for "Sylva.")
"One of their strengths is that they listen to each other constantly, and they make room for each other," said Mr. Crosby, who became a fan by watching the band's YouTube videos. "They're funky, and they swing, and they affect you emotionally. It's not an intellectual exercise for them."
For anyone familiar with the peak years of fusion, when Weather Report and the Mahavishnu Orchestra were playing to fervent young arena crowds, Snarky Puppy can seem like a reclamation and a throwback. It's not alone: Within the last several years, since clawing its way out of obscurity, Snarky Puppy has become the most visible of a crop of young bands building on a foundation of funk, rock, hip-hop and electronic music, typically with streamlined internal combustion and an overlay of vaulting, anthemic melody.
Recent examples extend from the trumpeter Christian Scott's arresting album "Stretch Music" (Ropeadope) to "Man Made Object" (Blue Note), a stylish but vaporous new effort by the British trio GoGo Penguin, which has been booked to play Coachella. What Snarky Puppy brings to the equation, more than any original musical ideas, is vigorous proficiency, a firm collective identity and an air of generous accessibility fueled by a killer work ethic.
Michael League, the band's bassist and leader, is a tousle-headed former military brat with the chipper self-possession of a summer-camp counselor. "If you asked me what genre we're in," he said over tea, "I would say 'instrumental pop.' But that makes it sound like we're opening for Kenny G."
Mr. League formed Snarky Puppy after his freshman year at the University of North Texas (in Denton), which has one of the oldest jazz programs in the country. "Because I was so bad," he recalled, "I didn't place into any of the school ensembles. So Snarky Puppy was my way of getting to play." The band released its debut album on Ropeadope in 2006, when all of its members were still students.
About a year later, Mr. League was hired for a church gig outside Dallas. There he met musicians including the keyboardist Bernard Wright, a former session ace turned crossover R&B solo artist, who became his mentor. Before long, Mr. League and a few of his band mates were playing five church services a week.
"So that's where the music went from white jazz-school stuff to something groovier, funkier, more communicative with the audience," he said. "Less nerdy." Most members of the band have sideman careers; the drummer Robert Searight, known as Sput, has worked with Erykah Badu, Justin Timberlake and Kendrick Lamar.
These days, it's not unusual for the band to perform for a few thousand people, most of whom are prepared to scat the wriggling melody of a tune like "Lingus." (Consult a Buenos Aires show from Nov. 15, which is available for download or as part of a new 32-CD boxed set, "World Tour 2015.") The raucous enthusiasm of the crowds, paired with the fan-service business model, would seem to place Snarky Puppy in the lineage of proggish, post-Phish jam bands like Umphrey's McGee.
"But I feel even less like a part of the jam-band thing than the jazz thing," Mr. League said. Pressed to elaborate, he fell quiet for 10 seconds. "Because," he finally said, "the band plays best and feels best when our music is being absorbed in a certain way that's not really typical of the jam-band scene. When we have an audience that's silent and listening, we're able to play dynamically and really explore things musically that we can't when we have a crowd that's partying."
The footage from "Family Dinner Volume Two," which was made in New Orleans during Mardi Gras last year, underscores the point. Audience members sit interspersed with the band, wearing headphones. The atmosphere in Esplanade Studios, a converted church, falls somewhere between a concert taping and an open rehearsal. The two constants are a high level of musicianship and an equivalent spirit of camaraderie.
"To all of us that joined in on it," Mr. Crosby said, "it felt like one of the best musical experiences of our lives." As a token of his continuing faith in Mr. League, they are working together on an album of Mr. Crosby's new songs, performed in a sparse acoustic style.
Snarky Puppy has carried its good will forward in other ways, mobilizing GroundUp as a platform. This year, the label, run by Mr. League and Andy Hurwitz, the founder of Ropeadope, will release new albums by Mr. Hunter; the singer-songwriter Michelle Willis; and the Funky Knuckles, a fusion band from Dallas. There will also be at least one album apiece by the Snarky Puppy keyboardists Cory Henry and Bill Laurance.
And the 11th Snarky Puppy album, "Culcha Vulcha," is due out in June. Recorded in a studio in El Paso, with no audience or guests, it features a congress of musicians from the band's extended roster, known as the Fam. Mr. League described the sound of the album as patient and restrained, by Snarky Puppy standards: "Darker, less fireworks, much more rich and warm and distorted."
The band has lately been veering away from fusion, he said, though it's unclear where exactly that road leads, for the band or for its fans, who represent a sort of continuum.
"Sometimes it's 'Oh, my dad told me about you,' and sometimes it's 'Oh, my son told me about you,'" he said. "It's funny. And you know, jazz, jam band, fusion: I don't know where we are. But because the band has such a rapport — from 12 years of touring, over 1,200 concerts, 11 albums — our mix of styles doesn't sound disparate. It just sounds like Snarky Puppy."

Another "Z", the Zambezi River, runs through both countries, spilling over and thundering down both their borders at Victoria Falls, which many call the most majestic waterfall on the planet.
Officially, "Vic Falls" ranks as one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World as well as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. And there's good reason for that—this mile-wide curtain of water plunging some 400 ft. over a huge cliff, tells a tale of two countries. On the Zambia side, travelers fly into Livingstone Airport, but often head to hotels on the Zambezi riverfront, such as the stylish, colonial Royal Livingstone Hotel or the Zambezi Sun resort. Local travel companies have turned the Zambia side of the falls into fun-filled action center offering bungee jumping, white-water rafting and canoeing, as well as sundowner river safaris, game drives or elephant back safaris in Mosi-Oa-Tunya National Park.
The town Victoria Falls on the Zimbabwe side sits right by the falls. It was built for tourism with hotels, restaurants and bars, and it's a town that works well for tourism, remaining largely untouched by violence elsewhere in the country.
Most U.S. travelers visiting the area fly right into Victoria Falls Airport, often following a visit to South Africa. They may stay at the classic Victoria Falls Hotel—actually the oldest hotel in Zimbabwe, as this writer, who stayed there in its more modest days 40 years ago, can attest to. Nowadays, the property is elegant, surrounded by gardens with perfect views of the spray from the falls. Also positioned even closer to the watery spectacle is the smaller Ilala Lodge, a lovely colonial hotel whose rooms face the lawn that stretches to the Zambezi River gorge. Activities include exploring Victoria Falls National Park and the Zambezi National Park to enjoy wildlife drives, guided hikes and fishing expeditions. Light plane or helicopter rides over the falls are very popular with guests in both countries.
While Victoria Falls is a mainstay attraction on the Africa travel circuit—most often as an add-on to itineraries in South Africa and Botswana—Chris McIntyre, president of Expert Africa is wild about the two "Z" destinations.
"The national parks of Zambia and Zimbabwe shelter huge concentrations of big game animals, as well as more than 700 species of birds," he explains, "and they are tops for special experiences such as boating safaris in the Lower Zambezi National Park or walking safaris in Zambia's South Luangwa National Park."
McIntyre adds that while Zambia has a broader parks infrastructure and more upscale camps, Zimbabwe has fabulous, experienced guides. "The government test for the guide who looks after the client is very stringent; the test for the armed escort who watches the animals is even stricter."
Lusaka is the air gateway to landlocked Zambia, which has three large lakes and is sustained by three great rivers. As one of the most sparsely populated nations, Zambia retains a sense of remoteness that gives visitors an experience of what is often called the "real" Africa. Zambia's top safari areas are:
- South Luangwa National Park, where big game concentrates in large numbers around lagoons and sandbars, favorite habitats for hippo and crocodiles; and birdlife abounds.
- Kafue National Park contains diverse landscapes and varied wildlife, and is one of Africa's largest game parks. Most major species are here, including the big cats.
- Lower Zambezi National Park is wildlife-rich in lions, leopards, vast herds of elephant and buffalo, and swarms of hippos.
Lion World Tours takes clients for a 6-night Walk on the Wild Side, starting in Johannesburg for a night and a second night in Livingstone at the Zambezi Sun resort. Guests then fly to the air strip at Kafue National Park, one of the largest in Africa, to spend two nights at the Musanza Tented Camp located on the permanent pools of the Lufupa River in an area well-known for leopard sightings. They continue on day six by a combination light aircraft and helicopter to the Busanga Bush Camp for three days in an area of expansive grassy floodplains and some of the best lion-viewing in Africa. Activities here include game drives, walking safaris and night drives. Departures are available June through October, and the tour price, from $5,899 pp dbl, includes roundtrip international air from Washington, D.C. or New York to Johannesburg, regional and air charter flights, and all land arrangements.

"[W]omen, especially in middle- and upper-income groups, moved steadily and massively into the paid labor markets. Most lower-income women had already been doing paid labour.
This post-1970 change in the conditions and lives of American women changed their families and households in ways that also altered US capitalism. Briefly, the mass movement of adult women, mostly married and with children, into paid, mostly full-time labor transformed households and families. Wives and mothers had long held disproportionate responsibility for maintaining the emotional integrity of the traditional nuclear family and the physical integrity of the traditional household. Even after those women undertook paid labor, they still performed the major share of the emotional and physical labor involved in shouldering those responsibilities, far more than their male partners. Women doing the "double shift" of work-place and household jobs simply could no longer devote the same time, energy, and attention to maintaining the emotional life of the family and the physical chores of the household as they had before adding work outside the household to their responsibilities.
Huge strains on families and households accumulated as a result of these changes. Divorce rates rose as tensions and strains within households mounted. Women brought their job stresses home; two incomes had to be jointly allocated and two sets of job-related expenses covered; children received less time and attention from parents. Women's former household labor, such as shopping, cooking, cleaning, and repairing clothes, appliances, and furniture, was increasingly replaced by purchasing substitute commodities (prepared meals, cleaning services, and disposable goods). Given the poor mass transit systems in the United States, when wives and mothers took paid jobs, families often needed to buy and maintain a second automobile. On US television programs, situation comedies changed from celebrating the happy nuclear and patriarchal family of the 1950s and 1960s to laughing with compassion at the increasingly dysfunctional families of the last several decades. A historically unprecedented and growing proportion of the population began choosing not to get married.
Flowing from these family and household changes, US consumption of all kinds of psychotropic drugs, legal and illegal, has soared. We became, in one revealing phrase, a "Prozac nation." Millions of family and household members felt acutely troubled that the support provided for them by traditional institutions seemed to be dissolving. Churches, synagogues, mosques, and the Republican Party, sometimes separately and sometimes together, found that by championing a "return to family values" they could very effectively draw new adherents.
The US economy adjusted to all these changes in family and household life, which were themselves consequences of earlier economic changes (above all, the end of rising real wages). The prepared-food and pharmaceutical industries boomed; so, too, did the women's clothing industry, which quickly discovered that women who took full-time paid work outside the home needed new wardrobes. The pornography industry grew fastest of all. As the manufacturing sector kept shrinking relative to the service sector, typically male-identified jobs declined relative to female-identified jobs. Men's real wages stagnated and became insufficient to yield the American Dream for their families and necessitated more women entering paid employment. The stresses and strains of all these changes made many men, raised with ideals of masculinity based on providing for their families, feel diminished, emasculated, and devalued. For many, pornography provided, in voyeuristic fantasy, the male control and domination that had eroded in their real lives."

Bloor West Village
Bloor West Village is a popular neighbourhood for families. It has many excellent schools and is within walking distance of High Park Toronto's biggest and best-known park. This west end neighbourhood is highlighted by the Bloor West Village retail district, which attracts shoppers from all over the city. In the 1850s, the area now known as Bloor West Village was the property of Lieutenant Colonel William Smith Durie, the first commanding officer of the Queens Own Rifles. The street that ran through his estate is now known as Durie Street. The present day neighbourhood began to be developed in 1909 when…
In the 1850s, the area now known as Bloor West Village was the property of Lieutenant Colonel William Smith Durie, the first commanding officer of the Queens Own Rifles. The street that ran through his estate is now known as Durie Street. The present day neighbourhood began to be developed in 1909 when this district became part of the City of Toronto.
Soon after amalgamation with Toronto, Bloor West's roads were paved and city services were made available. Bloor West's first residents were immigrants of Eastern European background. These are the residents who helped found the Bloor West Village Business Improvement Area, the first of its kind in Canada. This shopping district has helped make Bloor West Village one of Toronto's most popular neighbourhoods.
Bloor West Village homes are all fairly similar in size and style, having been built in a relatively short period of time between 1912 and 1923. Bloor West Village houses feature deep front porches that are well shaded by the majestic oak and maple trees that line the streets of this neighbourhood. The majority of houses feature decorative oak accents, hardwood floors and fireplaces.
The Bloor West Village shopping district is as much about eating as it is about shopping. It's a virtual smorgasbord of bakeries, delicatessens, specialty food shops, cafes and restaurants. Convenience stores, fruit and vegetable markets, dry cleaners, video stores, and other shops catering to everyday household needs, can also be found on Jane and Annette Streets.
High Park, a 399-acre park, is within walking distance of Bloor West Village. This Toronto landmark contains picnic areas, flower gardens, animal paddocks, a restaurant, an outdoor amphitheatre, sports facilities, a trackless train, an adventure playground and a large pond. Annette Recreation Centre is attached to the Annette Street public school. This Centre has an indoor pool, a small gymnasium and a baseball diamond. A bit east of the Annette Centre is the Annette Street Public Library, which offers programs for adults, children, and preschoolers.

The Annette Street bus connects passengers to the Dupont subway station on the Yonge-University Spadina subway line. There are additional bus routes on Jane Street and Runnymede Road. Motorists are approximately 10 minutes from the Gardiner Expressway and Lake Shore Boulevard. Both these routes provide quick access into and out of the city.

Cameron Slater complains bitterly about many things, especially when he gets some mild criticism.
(He has good reason to complain about the time being taken to deliver a verdict in his defamation stoush with Colin Craig, but that's an exceptional case).
A string of posts this week highlight the bitter taste on his tongue (or finger tips).
Thursday: Childless, bitter, old Nimby tried to block fundraiser to save premature babies
What a miserable old hag.
Friday: Childless, bitter, old Nimby once again on wrong side of public opinion
Old snaggle-tooth just looks like her face – all bitter and twisted. There is an old saying that you get the face you deserve.
The bitter old blogger should know what it's like being on the wrong side of public opinion.
Saturday: Bitter, old bag gives sound advice to the Labour party council: 'Resign'
That's a fake headline. I guess it may attract a few clicks.
This is miserable, nasty stuff from a miserable, nasty old political activist well past his use-by date. It seems that aAbout all he has left is bitching about others – in this case someone respected across most of the New Zealand political spectrum and around the world.
Lemons are sweet in comparison to the bitterness now belching from a one time ground breaking blog.

MIAMI (TNS) — New Trump administration guidelines that expand the list of reasons for which immigrants can be summoned before an immigration judge to start deportation procedures will take effect Monday.
The updated list, announced in July by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service, includes the option of deporting legal immigrants if they violate federal or state programs related to "the reception of public benefits."
The rules give immigration officials more leeway to issue Notices to Appear — documents issued to noncitizens instructing them to appear in immigration court. The NTAs traditionally mark the beginning of a deportation process.
Starting Monday, USCIS agents will be able to issue an NTA for a wider range of cases involving evidence of fraud, criminal activity or when a foreign citizen is denied an immigration benefit and therefore loses legal status to remain in the United States.
The USCIS policy memorandum states its purpose is to align with Trump's executive order "for enhancing public safety," which "articulated the priorities for the removal of aliens from the United States."
"For too long, USCIS officers uncovering instances of fraudulent or criminal activity have been limited in their ability to help ensure U.S. immigration laws are faithfully executed," agency Director L. Francis Cissna has said.
The new procedures, he added, give immigration officers more freedom and offers them "clear guidance they need and deserve to support the enforcement priorities established by the president, keep our communities safe, and protect the integrity of our immigration system from those seeking to exploit it."
Another news release issued Wednesday to announce the implementation of the new policy on NTAs noted that USCIS will send "denial letters for status-impacting applications that ensures benefit seekers are provided adequate notice when an application for a benefit is denied."
The immigration agency said the revised guidelines are designed to strengthen the enforcement priorities of the Department of Homeland Security, which last week made public a proposal to keep immigrants from obtaining permanent residence or green cards if they receive certain public benefits.
Under the new guidelines, USCIS adjudicators are required to issue NTAs in the following categories:
— Cases in which fraud or false representation is substantiated.
— Cases in which immigrants have abused some of the public benefits available to them.
— Cases in which immigrants have been accused or convicted of a criminal offense, even if criminal conduct was not the basis for the denial.
— USCIS will be allowed to refer cases involving serious criminal activity to ICE before adjudication of an immigration benefit request pending before USCIS without issuing an NTA.
— Cases in which USCIS denies an Application for Naturalization on good moral character grounds because of a criminal offense.
— Cases in which, upon the denial of an application or petition, an applicant is unlawfully present in the United States.
The USCIS announcement Wednesday added that it will continue to "prioritize cases of individuals with criminal records, fraud, or national security concerns."

What I'm Loving
earrings || sports bra || tiger print clutch || earrings || espadrilles || yellow clutch || dress || blow dryer || button down shirt || beach towel || tumblers || pillow spray
I love beauty products and I love wine so you can imagine how intrigued I am with Claudalie's Crushed Cabernet Scrub. Has anyone tried it? I am a huge fan of a good body scrub (current fave) and try to use it once a week. A great gift for yourself or a friend is this net-a-porter curated favorite summer beauty essentials. Call my crazy for the expensive Harry Josh hair dryer, but I love it. It literally cuts my blow drying time in half of other dryers on the market, which is a huge bonus for someone who hates blow drying their hair. I have been using it for about a year and I swear by it.

Nevada judges travel from courthouse-to-courthouse in various rural counties to ensure due process for everyone. In the last six years (2011-16), rural district court judges traveled an average of 6.1 hours per week to dispense justice in Nevada's rural communities, which was a 14 percent reduction from the 2007-10 time period (7.1 hours).
A recent report issued by the Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC), Research and Statistics Unit, discusses the total miles driven and the associated time traveling each year by the district court judges that must travel to multiple courts in their judicial districts.
Rural judges face increasing stress and fatigue associated with the travel and fewer hours to spend on judicial duties compared to Nevada's urban court judges. The report found that due to use of video conference and the realignment of judicial districts, as well as other considerations, judicial travel decreased 39 percent in 2016 (56,560) when compared to 2010 (93,302).

Thoughts on Thursday...

I am with you, Karen. I prefer to save the best for last.ReplyDelete
I prefer the best first and then work around the rest. That keeps me from overeating.ReplyDelete
I always save the best for last too. I get the least liked stuff out of the way.ReplyDelete
LAST - always.ReplyDelete
Green veggies, then meat, then potatoes.
Cheesecake filling, then base, then topping.
and if I can buy Oreos on offer [often expensive in the UK]then I eat the biscuit first then the filling!
Well, hopefully I haven't put anything on my plate that I don't like. I don't eat meat usually so, nope I just eat a little of everything as I go.ReplyDelete
I think eating dessert first should be the rule, that way you always have room!ReplyDelete
Oh, yes. The potatoes are always last.ReplyDelete
I like too eat dessert first! Cause, even if I eat the other stuff til I'm full, I still eat the dessert!!!ReplyDelete
if i'm hungry...yes! best for last. if i am not so hungry...best first, encase i run out of room...i don't want to miss the good stuff...or over eat!ReplyDelete
Best for last definitely! That's why I always eat my pizza crust first :)!!ReplyDelete
I hate it when everything on the plate is so good that I can't decide which bite to eat last!ReplyDelete
Karen, Im with you. I always save the best for last.ReplyDelete
quilting dash lady at comcast dot net
I used to eat the best last but I learned that by eating it first that if I get full then I don't have to make myself keep eating. Now I usually eat a bit of everything together.ReplyDelete
I eat the best First!---and all of it is Best!ReplyDelete
My thing is "The Perfect Bite" which will have just the right amount of everything in it! On Thanksgiving, that bite will be a smidge of turkey, stuffing, yam, and cranberry sauce.....so every bite is all the flavors together! Yum! I try and do that at every meal!ReplyDelete
I start with the best (but don't eat it all) and then eat what I can of the rest, then finish with the best :)ReplyDelete
I'm like and eat best last but the other commenters that eat their favorite first so they don't over eat have a point too.ReplyDelete
This one is easy! If I don't like it, I leave it off my plate to start with.ReplyDelete
I just make sure to save some of the best for the last bite!ReplyDelete
I go for the gusto..or good stuff first!!!! I may not be hungry if I start with the so so first and then could not really enjoy the best!!!
If you eat the good stuff first then you can always claim that you're too stuffed to eat the stuff you don't like anyway! It works for me, lol!ReplyDelete
Always last. As a reward for eating the things that are good for me, yet I might not like.ReplyDelete
I start with whatever hot food will get cold and unappetizing first! Generally I try to eat the "fast carbs" last, so I am already feeling full by the time my mouth wants another potato or piece of garlic bread :)ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJuly 5, 2012 at 11:50 PM
I save the best for last!ReplyDelete
Best for last always!ReplyDelete
I tell my kids "Worst first" so they get it over with and get to enjoy their favorite without the "worst" hanging over them.ReplyDelete
