Our Team.
Allan has been in the property management business for over two decades. During the last 23 years Allan, has successfully operated strata management companies in British Columbia.
After 3 years working as a property manager, in May of 1996 Allan formed a brand-new Strata Management company called Pacific Property Management Ltd. On January 1st 2000 Allan merged Pacific Property Management Ltd with ColyVan Properties Ltd and formed ColyVan Pacific Real Estate Management Services Ltd
ColyVan started in 1989 as Coopers Lybrand Vancouver, when 3 of the (Cooper's) partners took the management portfolio private, and ten years later, partnered with Allan to build a much bigger business. Fast forward to 2016, September 30th. After 20 years, Allan successfully sold the entire business to his senior Management team making for a seamless transition for both the business and the clients, the business consisted of the ColyVan Pacific offices in both Vancouver and Surrey and another management practice in Nanaimo called Concise Strata Management Ltd. in total, managing over 10,000 client suites (doors) in over 200 Strata Corporations throughout the lower mainland and all of Vancouver Island.
Marketing, good service and organic growth account for some of the business success, but business acquisitions have also been a key component. Some examples of companies Allan has personally (through his company) purchased/acquired since 1996 and merged together – ColyVan Properties Ltd. – Goddard and Smith Property management – Avalon Properties – Roberts projects – IPM Strata Management Inc. – Urban Properties ltd. – Concise Strata Management – VI Strata Financial.
Developing management systems and working with new Technology has been a focal point for the business direction Allan has followed. In 2000 Allan, together with 2 partners built a very early document management/web based portal system for Strata's called Asenda Systems. Allan rolled this system out to all his client buildings from 2002 -2010.
In 2012 Allan migrated from a legacy accounting system to an integrated web based accounting system called Infotracker, this was a streamlined approach to accounting and integration of property management functions.
In 2015, Allan built a proprietary web site with integrated interactive web portals and built/developed a bid management/trade directory web portal called mylilypad.ca also integrating into the site Bazinga.com and Rentmoola.com (google them).
Now, October 1st 2016, after 2 years of talking to Brian Moran, the owner of Bayview Strata Services, Allan was able to orchestrate a transition of ownership that will be seamless for the business and the clients, except for the fact that Allan will be working to improve on every service Bayview offers including implementing a new web site and building proprietary web portals for owners' access to their accounts and history online……….. stay tuned, much much more to come.
Terry, his wife and two daughters moved to Vancouver Island in 2009; it was at this time Terry joined the family business, which was Strata Property Management. Terry had successfully completed his Strata Management licensing through University of British Columbia Sauder School of Business division prior to leaving Calgary and obtained his Strata Management license in January 2010. Terry quickly learned the business of Strata Agency and brought with him knowledge and technology he obtained during his years as the Operations Manager for Alberta's largest construction supplier of glass and shelving.
During the first two years of being a Strata Agent, Terry was working on his Managing Broker license through the University of British Columbia Sauder School of Business. He completed the course and successfully passed the examination in 2012 allowing him to become a Managing Broker, one of only 1,368 total Managing Brokers and one of the youngest to successfully complete the course in British Columbia.
Upon completion of his Managing Brokerage license Terry and his team opened an independent brokerage under the name The Kerr Group Management Corp.; this brokerage quickly became one of the most successful brokerages providing services to Strata Corporations and Rental Property Owners to the central Vancouver Island area. Because of this growth and success, Terry was approached by Allan Landa, originally to sell the business but later to become partners.
In 2017 Allan and Terry became business partners and collectively amalgamated 4 property management company's into one – Bayview Strata & Rental Services. Allan and Terry have an amazing, highly educated, energetic and sometime crazy team; this team brings to the property owners of Vancouver Island the services of a large scale property management company at the same time maintaining the small family feel our customers have grown to love.
This is a tough industry that we work hard at daily, we love having fun and have developed a great environment for our team and our client family (even crazy uncle Bob); if you want to know more about Terry or Bayview Strata & Rental Services give us a call.
Professional strata management.

Yup…it happened…September 8th: a summer snowstorm.
I think everyone was a little unsure how to dress for this weather because it was still above the freezing mark. Do we bundle up in our parkas and risk the inevitable back sweat… or opt for the spring jacket with an umbrella praying that the wind doesn't pick up and cause the embarrassing flip effect?
I chose the umbrella route and ended up using it as a shield to avoid the flippage…looks a little something like this:
All I want to do in this kind of weather is snuggle up, have a bath, and indulge in some delicious comfort food. But is there such thing as a healthy comfort food dish you ask? Why yes, yes there is….
Turkey chili!
This is one of my most favorite meals ever…such a satisfying warm dish that fills you right up and tastes sinfully good 🙂
You can definitely switch up the ingredients in the below recipe. Perhaps add some different veggies or sub out the garbanzo beans for kidney beans…but to be completely honest I don't mess around with it too much because it's just so darn good!
Snuggle up with a bowl of this deliciousness and I swear you will forget about the horrendous weather we are currently experiencing and make it until Wednesday…. which is when it is supposed to be sunny again! (Oh Calgary weather…).
Zucchini Turkey Chili
Servings: 6
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
- 1 1/2 pounds ground turkey
- 1 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon chili pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 (14.5 ounce) can beef broth
- 1 (7 ounce) can salsa
- 1 (14.5 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, or coarsely chopped tomatoes packed in puree
- 1 (7 ounce) can chopped green chile peppers
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 3 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise and sliced
- 1 can garbanzo beans
- 1 bunch green onions, chopped
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large stock pot over medium-high heat. Crumble turkey into the pot, stirring with a wooden spoon to break apart as much as possible. Season with taco seasoning mix, coriander, oregano, chili flakes, and tomato paste, and mix until meat is evenly coated with seasonings. Continue cooking, reducing heat if necessary, until turkey is well browned.
- Pour in beef broth, and simmer to reduce liquid slightly, about 5 minutes. Add salsa, tomatoes, and green chilies, and continue cooking at a moderate simmer for ten minutes. Adjust the thickness at any time you feel necessary by adding water.
- While chili is still cooking, heat one tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook onion and green bell pepper, stirring occasionally for 5 minutes, or until onion is translucent and bell pepper is lightly browned. Add onion and bell pepper to the chili, and continue cooking at a very low simmer.
- In the same skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini, and cook stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes, or until lightly browned. Add the zucchini and garbanzo beans to the chili, reduce heat, and continue cooking 15 minutes more. Again, adjust the consistency with water as needed.
- Ladle chili into serving bowls. Top with sour cream, green onion, and cheddar cheese, and serve.

Looking at medicine this way reinforced my belief that the structure and demands of medical schools and hospitals create obstacles to caregiving. How to revivify caregiving in medicine became the issue. Teaching about illness experiences remains important. Yet the moral–emotional core of those experiences deserves greater primacy — as does the social suffering that affects everyone, but especially marginalized people already injured by poverty, isolation, and other forms of structural violence.
Another orienting issue is the lived relationship between patient (and family) and clinician. Here the anthropological model of exchange based in reciprocity can counterbalance the market model's infiltration into even the most intimate parts of health care. The anthropological perspective suggests that care resembles gift exchange between individuals whose relationship to each other really matters. Stories and meanings are exchanged, but also the raw experience of responsibility and emotional sensibility. Over time, caregiving changes the moral life of both caregiver and care receiver. Ultimately, caregiving is about doing good for others, and doing good in the world, as naive as it may sound, is what medicine is really about. That's what draws people to its practice, even if it's also about technology, biomedical science, and markets. That moral core of medicine may seem abstract, until you see health professionals passionately struggling to be useful, compassionate, responsive, and responsible while working with the indifference of bureaucratic rules, the cold counting and costing of institutional audits, and hard-to-balance personal demands on their time and concern.
Modern medical practice's greatest challenge may be finding a way to keep caregiving central to health care. That way will turn on structural and economic developments, technologies, and therapeutic models, but also on the importance that professionals ascribe to patients' deep experience and to such enduring moral practices of caring as the laying on of hands, the expression of kindness, the enactment of decency, and the commitment to presence — being there for those who need them. This is the embodied wisdom medical students need to learn and we all must remember. It is the lesson for the art of living and the art of medical practice that emerges from my 40 years of rethinking and reliving this subject.

The Word Guild 2008 Canadian Christian Writing Awards winner C. Stacey Woods was a moving force in mid-century American evangelicalism. The Australian-born, Brethren-bred Woods came to Canada to head InterVarsity Christian Fellowship at the age of 24. He went on to become as well the first general secretary of InterVarsity Christian Fellowship in the United States. He started the influential student magazine HIS in the early 1940s and was instrumental in the founding of the worldwide umbrella organization of indigenous student movements--the International Fellowship of Evangelical Students. His global vision inspired many of the most outstanding Christian leaders of the 1960s and 1970s from around the world. He was a brusque, outspoken entrepreneur whose whirlwind style achieved much but was not always suited to administration. A man of great strengths and weaknesses, perhaps his most striking achievement was challenging the anti-intellectualism of conservative American Christianity, encouraging an active engagement with the university. He confronted a fundamentalism that had abandoned to liberalism the very educational institutions its forebears had founded. Woods turned this approach on its head, encouraging active engagement with the students and faculty of the university as well as with the institution itself. This story is an important chapter in understanding the ways evangelicalism has interacted with culture in North America and around the world.

Truth: I have been an on and off the mat kind of yoga student for the past five years, but have recently made the decision to spend more time on my mat. In doing so, part of my renewed practice was to participate in a 30-day hot yoga challenge. At times it was tough, but completing the challenge and reconnecting with my "yoga-self" has been one of the most rewarding and rejuvenating experiences of my life.
The following is a list of practical and personal tips to help you survive and thrive your 30-day challenge.
- Embrace the Kula!
Kula, or community, was one of the most integral parts of the challenge experience. Notice how a natural Kula forms as you see familiar faces and congratulate each other for finally realizing that crazy balance pose! Everybody in class has the same interest as you, and has equally made the effort to be on their mat. And as with most of life's challenges, having the support of those around you will keep you motivated and feeling strong.
- Celebrate Your Accomplishments
Made it through the first class? Great! Made it through the first week? Even better. No accomplishment is too small to celebrate, even if it is just with an extra strong hug-style Garudasana pose.
- Stay Hydrated
This tip is especially true for hot yoga challengers. It is important to drink water throughout the entire day before and after your practice. Gulping water between poses will not help you. You should not be dependent on the bottle of water that you bring into class. Many teachers won't cue for a water break and some studios discourage students from even bringing in their water bottles. But, if you have been hydrating throughout the day, chances are you won't even need your shiny BPA-free bottle.
- Electrolytes! Electrolytes! Electrolytes!
A great tip given to me by one of my teachers and registered holistic nutritionist, Samantha Sowassey, was to re-mineralize my filtered water. She recommends using Himalayan salts that actually contain the same 84 natural minerals and elements found in the human body. These pink-coloured salts will promote healthy water levels in your body and will reduce muscle cramps. There are also over the counter electrolyte replacements like Replenisher or Luna if you prefer a more fruity flavour. In a pinch? Add a wedge of lemon or lime to your water. They too contain trace minerals and can help regulate fluids in the body.
- Avoid Eating Right Before Class
This tip is super practical and relevant. Lying on your stomach, if it's full of food, is neither enjoyable nor relaxing. As a general guideline you should try not to eat anything substantial three hours prior to your class. If you need to eat, stick to a piece of fruit or other small non-salty snack.
- Be True to Yourself
Use a block, use strap, ask for help. Practice your poses with integrity. This means having the inner-honesty to know where your limits are. It is good to challenge yourself, but it is very important that the challenge comes from within. Let the rest of your classmates "fog-out." Your practice is about you and where you take your poses. This will be completely different from your neighbour; You are completely different from your neighbour.
- Rock the Childs Pose
Knees together, or knees apart. Hands above your head, or hand along your sides. Whichever you choose to do, do it with purpose. This is not the "OH MY BUDDAH I AM GOING TO HAVE TO GET BACK UP IN 30 SECONDS POSE." Let your heart gently melt into the mat and not come crashing down. Regulate your breath and come back to why you are in this class in the first place.
- Buy a Hot Yoga Towel
Now I know this may seem like a bogus tip but it will change your practice! The first thing you will need to get over is the price; I will never tell my mother how much I paid for a "towel!" My thought here is, you deserve it! If you are going to hot yoga everyday you should be able to practice in peace and not be sliding all over your mat or having your old beach towel bunch up under you. Plus they come in a range of patterns and colours, so express yourself!
- Less is More
Do not be afraid to sport the short shorts. It gets really hot in there and the last thing you will be thinking of is the cellulite on the back of your thighs. I also find cotton-based clothing items to be extremely uncomfortable as they inevitably become drenched with sweat. Wear clothing that is light and breathable and ideally has some sweat –wicking properties.
- Just do it
I know you can! Don't be afraid. Starting something new can be really intimidating, especially if you have visions of a room full of super fit and bendy yogis. Even if you are unsuccessful with your first attempt at least you tried, and you can try again. Taking the time everyday to come to your mat will bring peace, clarity and awareness into your life – which you deserve. So, take my last tip and just do it!

Gretchen Wilson uses the title of her second album as a euphemism for wasted. "Next thing you know, the bartender's pourin'/Shots a flowin', got me stoned and...." -- the moral of the story is, don't pick fights or start trucks when you're "All Jacked Up." But the phrase is broadly applicable, too. "All jacked up" describes a malfunctioning engine as effectively as the roughshod look of an ill-advised one-night stand.

WESTON, Maine — The burned remains of a pickup truck that had been sought in connection with a triple homicide in Amity last week was found Saturday, and state police evidence response team technicians were expected to continue their examination of it today.
A Cape Cod family's discovery of the 1989 Ford F-150 pickup registered to one of the victims was an important step forward in the investigation of the stabbing deaths of 55-year-old Jeffrey Ryan, his son Jesse Ryan, 10, and the elder Ryan's close friend 30-year-old Jason Dehahn, said Stephen McCausland, spokesman for the Maine Department of Public Safety.
"It was a major hurdle that we needed to get over because the truck had been missing, and we knew it had been on the [Ryan] property earlier in the week," McCausland said Sunday.
The three bodies were found Wednesday in Ryan's trailer off Route 1 in Amity. Members of the Cifelli family found the truck on their property about 12 miles from the trailer at about 10:30 a.m. Saturday. The truck had been missing from the Ryan property since the bodies were found Wednesday night.
State police took the pickup to the state police crime lab in Augusta at dusk Saturday.
McCausland would not comment on whether police believe the truck was used by the killer or killers or whether investigators have developed suspects, but he said rumors that investigators found a body in the pickup were not true.
Jesse Cifelli said he and his parents didn't know the pickup they found on their 40-acre property off Bancroft Road was registered to Jeffrey Ryan until they went into town.
"It was completely incinerated," Cifelli, 20, said Saturday. "All of the interior was gone. There was nothing left, just the frame. We thought somebody went out joyriding after stealing it and torched it.
"The whole thing is just a frame and tires, and the tires were completely burnt off," Cifelli added.
They called 911 immediately when they heard of the triple homicide, they said.
"We were stunned," Cifelli said.
That was at about 10:45 a.m., about 15 minutes after they found the pickup, they said. State police listed the time as 11:30 a.m. Within 20 minutes, a state police detective arrived in a car, and an unmarked helicopter flew low over their property, they said.
"They got here fast. You could tell they were taking this very seriously," said Cifelli's father, who declined to give his name. "They looked like they wanted to land the helicopter there."
Helicopters flew over the town and the surrounding area for much of the afternoon, said residents of Weston, a town of about 200 people in southern Aroostook County.
McCausland described the clearing as a tote road. The Cifellis said they had cleared the land and removed a deer surveillance camera from that very spot about two weeks ago, a decision they now regret.
"We probably would have had video of the entire thing," said the elder Cifelli.
Apart from confirming the discovery of the pickup, state police Lt. Gary Wright declined to comment on Saturday. He did not return a message left Sunday.
State police took shoe prints from the Cifellis and had them return to the pickup to show detectives exactly where they had been. The Cifellis could not recall seeing any footprints near the truck, and said only remnants of the seats were still inside the vehicle.
They also saw some tire tracks state police had marked near the pickup that they believed might have indicated the presence of a second vehicle, they said.
A state police dog, apparently trained in evidence or drug detection, and several members of the state police evidence response team were in the woods for most of the day. State police detectives and investigators from the State Fire Marshal's Office gathered evidence at the site and at the Ryan trailer on Saturday.
They moved the truck to the state police crime lab in Augusta shortly before dusk.
State police made a public appeal for help finding the pickup Friday, two days after an unidentified relative discovered the bodies. The individual had been to the mobile home earlier Wednesday in search of a family member, Wright has said. The man returned to the home at about 9:30 p.m., found the bodies of all three victims and called 911.
A man who identified himself as Jason Dehahn's brother said in a telephone interview that he and his father found the boy's body in a backroom when they went to Ryan's home in search of Jason on Wednesday night. They returned home and called police, who found the other bodies, he said.
The Cifellis, who own a cabin on their property, visit the area every few weeks or so. They and their neighbors wondered why the pickup was dumped there, about 1.5 miles from the Washington County line.
Several other tote or dirt roads lie around the Cifelli property, said Tom Kenyon, who lives next door to them. Kenyon, 26, and a neighbor on the opposite side of the Cifelli property said they didn't hear anything unusual all week.
Thick woods lie between the properties of Kenyon, Cifelli and a third neighbor, who declined to provide a name. Visibility into the Cifelli property from the road is generally obstructed. The clearing into the area where the truck was dumped is several vehicle widths wide and opens to what could pass for a pasture, although the pickup was left behind trees and other growth, which kept it hidden from the portion of the clearing nearest the road.
A casual friend of Dehahn's during their high school years, Kenyon said he doubted that any one person could have overpowered or subdued Dehahn before the killing.
"He was a bull," Kenyon said, "not a very big guy, but tough. He was rugged. I think the word is wiry. I can't see one person doing this to him."
Dehahn worked with his father as a self-employed sheetrock construction worker during his high school years, good with his hands and strong for such a thin person, Kenyon said.
Kenyon's opinion echoed that of Shannon Ryan, 35, of Texas, who is one of Jeffrey Ryan's children. Whoever killed the three likely was known to at least one of the two men, Ryan said Friday.
Ryan speculated that several people had to have killed the three, as Jeffrey Ryan's two Rottweilers would not have let a stranger or strangers into the home. State police told the family that nothing was stolen from the house except the pickup, Shannon Ryan said.
The Cifellis doubted that anyone could have negotiated the new clearing at night unless they were very familiar with the property.
At night, "they could not have walked out of there with a flashlight and a compass," Jesse Cifelli said, adding that walking through in daylight wouldn't be very easy either.
A state police dog and several members of the evidence response team were in the woods for most of the day, they said.
Jesse's father could not get over how he and his family were not aware of the triple homicide.
"We must have been the only people within 200 miles who didn't know about it," he said.

Citing a more simplified, consistent process and a greater emphasis on more serious conditions, the U.S. Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) published a proposed rule that will change the way the industry is assessed civil penalties. The proposal, which was published in the Federal Register on July 31, will amend existing civil penalty regulations if made a final rule. MSHA said it has structured the new outlines to "encourage operators to be more accountable and proactive" in addressing their own safety and health conditions.
Specifically, the agency said that total federal proposed penalties and the distribution of the penalty amount by mine size would remain generally the same, especially for coal mines.
However, the penalty amount for small metal and nonmetal mines would decrease. The current minimum is $112 and the maximum is $70,000 for non-flagrant violations, a range, which will not change; minimum penalties for unwarrantable failure violations-that is, violations that constitute more than just ordinary negligence-would increase to provide a greater deterrent for mine operators, it said.
The proposed rule has been developed, MSHA said, in response to a presidential executive order requiring agencies to review and simplify regulations and to respond to Assistant Secretary of Labor for Mine Safety and Health Joe Main's testimony in 2010 that the agency had a growing backlog of contested civil penalty cases.
The proposed rule can be viewed at www.federalregister.gov/public-inspection.

Keep reading? On the fence. Pak hasn't sold me on his series, but he hasn't turned me off of it either.
Keep reading? Hard to get into, I fear this reader may need to catch himself up with each published issue, so... wait for the trade and read bigger chunks of the saga all in one go?
Keep reading? Definitely. Looks to be a great action-horror series. Unleash all the creators you want, Dynamite!
Keep reading? Another religiously-themed winner from Fialkov, it gets a second issue by virtue of the questions it asks. Hopefully, I'll like the answers.
Keep reading? Yes, I'd be interested in seeing how far they can take it. In the text piece at the end, Jordan talks about societies in decay and gives the Mad Max trilogy as an example, showing he's thinking about the long term. If he can mutate this book like the Spread mutates people, he might be able to sustain interest for a while yet.
Next time, and I won't make you wait long, five more #1s to close out the month.

Ragnarok was the Thor tale that was already told - half by Dan Jurgens in a hasty finish to a long-running arc that was aborted by editorial to do the Disassembled event, and then half again by Jurgens' replacement - Michael Avon Oeming - in the Disassembled tie-in story "Ragnarok" that wrapped up the character until JMS' revival years later.
Still, it's good to see IDW letting old hands like Simonson do the stories they never got around to in their day jobs.

I agree 100% about flat coloring. There are lots of artists whose work looks amazing with complex coloring- Esad Ribic, JH Williams III, Fiona Staples, etc.- but most older artists' work just looks muddy when over colored.
Worse is when older comics are recolored using modern methods. I was excited to finally read Dave Stevens's Rocketeer only to discover that the brilliant line work everyone loved was buried beneath too-prominent colors.
I like modern coloring, especially Jordy Bellaire's work. I just would like to see it applied more judiciously.

I had the same feeling about Simonson's Thor run in Marvel Visionaries. Super-bright colors and glossy paper made the 3-color dot process pop in a most distracting way. Felt like the days of Flexographic all over again.

Well, at the moment I'm re-reading the Simonson Thor Omnibus and I'm not offended by the color change there. Either side has its strengths in places to appreciate (kind of like a cover of a great song). I actually do appreciate things like the saturation level, the put-on-your-shades glowing rainbow bridge, etc. Maybe I'm just an easy audience.

- Siskoid said...
Is the Omnibus on matte paper like the Kirby Omnibi? Because I don't mind that format at all. Possibly because it was recolored as well.
The Marvel Visionaries books were on glossy paper and I don't think recolored anything, so the red/yellow/blue dots showed up a lot, as opposed to looking like opaque washes of the proper shade.

Though the original by the Jackson's is probably the more popular, two boy groups have covered it since. Troop and Bad Boy's B5. While B5's version was nice for the 106 circuit, Troop's remake stands the test of time. I actually prefer theirs to the OG.

It's always hard to pick personal favourites and there are so many fantastic YA books out there at the moment, so I've restricted my choices to books published in the last few years and to titles that I believe have appeal to actual teenagers rather than to their parents and teachers. All these novels have strong stories with some kind of romantic element – my favourite kind of reads – and each one is properly compelling in its own very distinctive way.
Not for the faint-hearted, Phil Earle's own experience as a care worker help make every page of this story, about teenager Daisy Houghton and her struggle to overcome the raw deal life has dealt her, feel real and insightful. Saving Daisy is gritty stuff, but written with a lightness of touch that makes it heart-warming – as well as sometimes harrowing – to read.
This book is a class act. Funny and poignant by turns, it tells the story of two teenagers with cancer and their experiences of being alive and being in love. I think Augustus's declaration of love – "I know that love is just a shout into the void… and I am in love with you" is one of my favourite pieces of writing of the past few years.
The opening line of this book is my other favourite! "…My life was made, my love was sealed, my soul was lost and broken" manages to evoke the musicality that infuses the story as well as its sense of longing. I loved the Seventies setting – history for today's teenagers. The time and place burn off the page, as do the characters of William, Curtis and Lili. With Naked you get romance, music and politics – plus fabulous writing and a really powerful story.
For readers who like ghost stories as well as teen romance, Unrest is that rare thing: a spooky tale with a great plot. Elliot has been enduring terrifying out-of-body experiences since the accident that nearly killed him several months earlier. In a desperate attempt to understand what is happening to him, he takes a job at a museum which is supposed to be haunted. There he meets the mysterious Ophelia – and soon finds himself in real and terrible danger. Chilling, moving and thoroughly enjoyable.
Dead Time is the first instalment of The Murder Notebooks series. It's a classic mystery, full of twists and turns, about two teenagers whose parents went out for a meal one evening and never returned. I particularly like the way that both this story and the next in the series - Killing Rachel - have satisfying endings, while still leaving elements of the story open to run and run through the series overall.
Sophie McKenzie will be talking about thrillers at Hay Fever, the Hay Festival for children and families, on Saturday May 25

06.27.2017 Old Testament: Job 11.7–9
To read the Bible in a year, read Job 10–12 on June 27, In the year of our Lord 2017
By Don Ruhl
Job's friends said somethings in error, but they also spoke some truth, as you no doubt will see in the following quote from Zophar,
"Can you search out the deep things of God?
Can you find out the limits of the Almighty?
They are higher than heaven— what can you do?
Deeper than Sheol— what can you know?
Their measure is longer than the earth
And broader than the sea."
(Job 11.7–9)
How do you answer those questions? If you answer, no, no, nothing, and nothing to those questions, then do you have any right to become angry with God?
- What can we know about God?
- How does your knowledge of Him affect you?

How To Go Green Without Really Trying
There's a lot of talk going around lately about the best ways to be green, cut carbon, blah, blah blah. But I've got my own ideas about that and I'd like to present you with what I believe to be the absolute number one best & simplest way to reduce your average daily energy consumption: PEE IN THE SHOWER.
That's right, by simply peeing in the shower, you can reduce your water consumption by saving that extra flush... BUT THAT'S NOT ALL!
No, sirree, by peeing in the shower, you'll also be saving energy, since you won't have the light on those few extra minutes it would take you to tinkle. And, of course, since all the electricity we use in Missouri and Kansas is from coal, using less energy means less mercury floating in the air and less evil emissions.
So don't forget to start your day like a good conservationist and pee in the shower.... do it for the children! The children are our future!

It has been more than a year since I set myself up for business. I started with a website with the allusion that; "If I post it, they will come" via the magic on the inter-web. That may seem pretty naive and in fact, it was because I had a lot to learn about the internet and especially about how to sell creative works.
I am naturally a curious person so I did some research and found The Abundant Artist Association, which I joined. They have a lot of marketing courses on "How to sell your Art Online" which I studied, but only implemented a small portion of their suggestions. I found out that it is hard to sell your art online and that you have to talk to people. In November of 2017, a guest conference call on art shows with Owen Garratt opened my eyes to the possibilities of art shows, but I wasn't intending to sit outside in the heat and humidity to sell cards.
I retired in January of 2018 and decided to give this art business a good try, so I started making more paintings and cards. Well now I have inventory, but I needed customers. In May, I received an email from my local art association, Mt. Horeb Area Arts Association, that announced the Black Earth, WI Chamber wanted artists for a new art show in August. I discussed this with my husband and we decided to enter.
After I applied for a booth I remembered the program on art shows and the discounted training materials and purchased the videos from Marketing Tools For Artists . I found out I had made my first mistake by signing up for a new, unproven art show, but I was going to make the best of it and prepare a booth that would dazzle the visitors.
Dave and I worked out a lot of details with the art booth, a lot of thinking, doing and arguing, but in I think we put together a pretty nice booth for first-time art showers. The art show in Black Earth wasn't very good because it was poorly advertised and not very many visitors. It was a great opportunity to try out our booth and we learned a lot and simplified our signs so the next weekend when we set up for the Bailey's Run Vineyard show we were more prepared.
Bailey's Run was another new show (remember never to go with new shows) and we didn't sell too much, but I am satisfied that if I were to go to a larger show, I could sell cards. What I learned from my experience is you need to go to shows that have at least 1000 people to find a few that will like your stuff. You need a proven show and you have to find the right type of person for your art. I also learned that I don't like being outside in the heat and humidity and will try to find shows that are inside, but that is a luxury. I liked talking to people, and it was fun, but it is not a social event so tell friends to meet you after the show and not try to socialize while you are marketing.
I will continue to look for shows and I will continue to simplify my set up. It is one of the quickest ways to get new names for the website subscribing by having a show giveaway and hopefully, someday, I will be able to get people to buy cards online too.

Wounded minds: Experiencing the violence of the Nazi New Order in Yugoslavia
Ana Antic will present her Fraenkel Prize lecture at the Wiener Library on Wednesday, 27 April, 6.30-8pm.
In WWII, death and violence permeated all aspects of everyday lives of ordinary people in Eastern Europe. Moreover, almost entire populations were drawn into fierce and uncompromising political and ideological conflicts, and many ended up being more than mere victims or observers: they themselves became perpetrators or facilitators of violence, often to protect their own lives but also to gain various benefits. Yugoslavia in particular saw a gradual culmination of a complex and brutal civil war, which ultimately killed more civilians than did the foreign occupying armies. This lecture will tell a story of the tremendous impact of such pervasive and multi-layered political violence, and will look at ordinary citizens' attempts to negotiate these extraordinary wartime political pressures. It proposes to use Yugoslav psychiatric case files as unique windows into this harrowing history in order to gain an original perspective on the effects of wartime violence and occupation through the history of psychiatry, mental illness and personal experience. By looking at patient files as historical sources, it explores the socio-cultural history of wartime through the eyes of (mostly lower-class) psychiatric patients. Moreover, the experiences of observing, suffering and committing political violence critically affected the understanding of human psychology, pathology and normality in WWII and post-war Balkans and Europe. The lecture traces the formation and re-definition of psychiatric concepts, categories and practices in the context of extreme violence, Nazi occupation and post-war socialist revolution. It shows how such brutal external conditions and unprecedented anti-civilian violence transformed psychiatric and scientific paradigms, and changed psychiatric and broader public evaluations of the human psyche.
Please reserve your place here.

Oyster Bay Railroad Museum future is evolving
Oyster Bay Railroad Museum board chairman Ben Jankowski and John Specce, OBRM president held up renderings of the Oyster Bay Railroad Museum and the turntable at the Oct. 30 Main Street Association annual meeting. The picture of the museum shows restored canopies and a trolley bus waiting outside for passengers to go to Sagamore Hill and other locations. "We work with all groups and organizations," said Mr. Jankowski. "Oyster Bay is a destination location." The MSA is administering a NYS Quality Communities grant for the museum...

For Day Trips, Places Where History Happened
"Heritage tourism is taking off," said Thomas A. Kuehhas, director of the Oyster Bay Historical Society on Long Island. Tourists, including day-trippers, are looking for "much more in the way of what you might call 'edu-tainment,'" he said.
Competition for those "edu-tainment" dollars is stiff, and local historical societies, museums and government tourism agencies have become more creative in trying to lure heritage tourists...
OYSTER BAY, N.Y. — Speaking of the Roosevelts, the spirit of the other 20th-century president from New York, Theodore Roosevelt, is well and enthusiastically preserved at Sagamore Hill, his home in the historydrenched Town of Oyster Bay on Long Island's North Shore, about 45 miles from New York City. Run by the National Park Service since 1963, Sagamore Hill feels like the family home it once was.
"Even the bathrooms and bedrooms are intact," said Charles A. Markis, chief of visitor services at Sagamore Hill. And then there is the owner's larger-than-life presence, still discernible nearly 90 years after his death. Visitors can "feel the presence of vitality in the Roosevelt home," said Salvatore J. LaGumina, a history professor at Nassau County Community College.
Sagamore Hill, like most historic sites, has special programs for children, including a scavenger hunt on the grounds and a Junior Ranger program designed to help children understand the site's significance.
The journey to Sagamore Hill ought to include time to explore the charm of Oyster Bay. There is a reason President Roosevelt chose to build his home in this historic town. Within two miles of the town's mostfamous home are two historic churches, a colonial-era cemetery, the Planting Fields Arboretum State Historic Park, which includes plants from around the world, the Earle-Wightman House, which was built in the early 18th century, and Raynham Hall Museum, another 18th century building that was the family home of Robert Townsend, a spy for the Continental Army. "We have a solid core of buildings here in Oyster Bay that, thankfully, the town leaders were able to save and preserve years ago," said Mr. Kuehhas of the Oyster Bay Historical Society.

Oyster Bay Tries to Save a Piece of Railway Past
Trains still rumble past the old Oyster Bay train station at the end of Audrey Avenue, though the only passengers are Long Island Rail Road employees heading to a rail yard. But if you stand within the brick walls of the 118-year-old station, in the center of the chipped tile floor below the chestnut timber roof, and close your eyes, you can imagine President Theodore Roosevelt stepping off a train.
That's the experience trustees of the Oyster Bay Railroad Museum hope to provide when they formally open the station as a railroad museum. But because the project needs money, it remains a work in progress with no target date for completion.
The station — known as the home station of Roosevelt, the 26th president — stands less than five miles from his Oyster Bay residence, Sagamore Hill, the area's main tourist attraction.
But Roosevelt's story does not end at his estate's boundary, museum trustees say. It continues in downtown Oyster Bay and at the train station, which went on the National Register of Historic Places two years ago. They envision the station as "a larger teaching tool," said Liz Irwin, a consultant for the museum, simultaneously educating the public on Long Island's railroad history and the president's life locally.
The station now contains a few small exhibits, including drawings and photographs of the station through the decades and railroad artifacts like signal lights, which are open to the public on special occasions. The museum also owns or cares for seven pieces of heavy equipment, including a steam engine, a caboose, two passenger coaches and a boxcar. But most of these are not yet on site.
The trustees say $1.7 million to $3.5 million are needed to restore and convert the station completely, refurbish the rolling stock and bring a defunct turntable nearby to working order.
The effort to open a museum evolved from a more modest project to preserve a steam engine that hauled commuter trains until its retirement in 1955. A group, eventually the Friends of Locomotive 35, was formed in 1990 and broadened its attention to the train station and turntable as town officials discussed the possibility of opening a railroad museum in a 2002 hamlet plan, said Ben Jankowski, the museum chairman.
Last year the Friends became the Oyster Bay Railroad Museum under the auspices of the State Department of Education. The town, which bought the station from the Metropolitan Transportation Authority in 2005, is working on a contract to grant stewardship of it to the museum group, Mr. Jankowski said. The group subleases part of the adjacent rail yard from the town, where the turntable is situated and Engine 35 remains in pieces.
Ms. Irwin said the town would hire a director of development for the museum, who would help obtain a grant for the museum. Until then, the trustees can only wait. The deadline for many grant applications this year has passed, Ms. Irwin said.
John Venditto, the town supervisor and an advocate of the museum, said he expected the town board would award the management contract to the museum group next month. He also revealed a special connection to the train station: His wife's uncle once operated the turntable, he said.
Assemblyman Robert Walker said he was eager to see the museum become fully functioning. "It will promote economic development, lend a sense of history and educate the community," he said.
The trustees agree that the museum is part of a larger revitalization project. "This is about making Oyster Bay a major regional destination," Mr. Jankowski said.

Nobman's Hardware Is Back!
The Nobman family announced on Saturday, March 3 that Nobman's Hardware Emporium, their newly rebuilt retail hardware and home goods specialty store in downtown Oyster Bay, has officially reopened. On Sunday people were walking in to see the store and to take a tour of the new retail space. Outside on South Street were two Appalachian chairs. Inside Pendleton blankets were draped around the staircase leading down to an expanded basement site. Glinting in the sun were weathervanes mounted on cupolas ready to make your house distinctive.
Derrick Nobman was busy meeting customers and showing them around. He is getting out the message that the store will be open seven days a week with long elegant posters. That is good news to the community which has been looking forward to Nobman's rising out of the ashes after the devastating fire of 2005.
Road to Reconstruction
In the early morning hours of Jan. 24, 2005, the building that had been the home of Nobman's Hardware Emporium since 1910 was destroyed by fire. The loss of the historic building and of Nobman's Hardware was devastating to the Nobman family and to the larger community. Family owned and operated since its inception, Nobman's Hardware was steadily expanding under its fifth generation proprietor, Derrick Nobman at the time of the fire. Despite this loss, the Nobman family has spent the last two years rebuilding.
Derrick Nobman is continuing his family tradition of running Nobman's Hardware, following in the footsteps of his father and grandfather.
For more than 95 years Nobman's Hardware has been a fixture of the community, and a prominent driver of business and foot traffic in downtown Oyster Bay. The Nobman family pledged to remain in Oyster Bay and to restore this community icon, even while the ashes were still smoldering. The actual opening, which was held on Friday, Feb. 23, was the long anticipated culmination of two years of hard work on the part of the Nobman family to keep that promise to their neighbors - and to the employees who were such an integral part of the business - with the support of the local government and community.
Proprietor Derrick Nobman said, "Our family was devastated by the loss of the building, particularly my grandfather, Walter R. Nobman, Sr., who owned and ran Nobman's for 40 years with his brother-in-law George Hammond. We have had quite a ride getting the building back up and running, and consistent with today's code, but we are glad to be back in Oyster Bay. We plan to dedicate the building to my grandfather "Pops" who passed last year but was himself, along with my grandmother Elizabeth Nobman, a fixture of the Oyster Bay community."
Unique Retail Experience Returns
Nobman's Hardware is a full-service hardware, home furnishings and specialty store serving Oyster Bay and the outlying communities with products of exceptional quality at competitive prices, and with outstanding customer service. Customers can once again count on Nobman's to provide them with a unique blend of merchandise, including everyday hardware and home improvement supplies, a new selection of interior decorative hardware for cabinetry and doors, specialty housewares and the handmade works of local artisans. Nobman's will again feature custom designed and painted estate signs, handcrafted driftwood furniture and interior accents, custom made birdhouses and feeders, and meticulously reproduced custom prints of Long Island's many lighthouses.
Gold Coast Relic
Oyster Bay is an historic center on the North Shore of Long Island with history dating as far back as the pre-colonial era. Known for its central location on Long Island's Gold Coast, Oyster Bay was home to the great estates of the Industrial Revolution era captains of industry, and to former U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt. Nobman's began its long history as a supplier to the large estates owned by these historic figures. The Nobman's Hardware tradition is imbued with a sense of this history, and to the residents of the area, Nobman's represents one of the last remaining relics of the Gold Coast - a source of continuity through the generations.
Because the Nobman's Hardware building has tremendous historic and sentimental value to the community, and is such a visible part of the downtown streetscape, a great deal of effort was put into reconstructing the building to preserve the character of Oyster Bay's traditional waterfront community, while focusing on the challenges that lay ahead.
Building for the Future
Oyster Bay's proximity to the many beaches, estuaries, marshes and other important natural features that characterize the north coast of Long Island makes an emphasis on helping to preserve these treasures an imperative. Building with a focus on sustainability, the Nobman family succeeded in using green materials and practices through the many phases of construction. The new building features durable composite clapboard siding in place of traditional wood clapboard; a recycled composite that resembles slate tiling utilized on the exterior steps and as an interior decorative accent; and an efficient solar powered radiant heating and cooling system.
Property Owner Richard Nobman said, "We wanted to build a building that complemented the downtown and retained the character of the old building. We also wanted to build the greenest building possible within our budget. The net result is a great new building designed to carry us through the next 100 years of business. We are thrilled to be back!"

I am using GMail with Outlook 2013, configured as IMAP. When I select and delete multiple messages from Outlook, they are removed from the inbox and are moved to Trash. After, I do "Empty Folder" on the Gmail\Trash folder and switch folders multiple times, GMail (web interface) still shows some of those deleted messages in the GMail inbox.
My settings are:
GMail: Auto-Expunge on.
Outlook: Default IMAP settings (I have not modified adjusted any settings).
The goal is to have the Inbox in Outlook and the GMail Inbox be consistent and in-sync. Considering the purpose of IMAP, this should be the default behavior.
What is going on? Any help would be appreciated.

If you go to homestead.com or if you google search for your site and click on it, you get a BIG LOUD RED MALWARE warning. Homestead, please address this issue promptly!
In reply to Mike F.
This is NOT only when visiting homestead.com, but effecting ALL my sites.
This is NOT a inconvenience, but cost money. I just sent out a 33K mailing with a link so sign up for a conference. Now I have list cancelations all over the place.
Thank you Homestead!
I use FireFox. Homestead link goes to Reported Attack Page. As seen in other posts, I am not alone.
Solve it please!!!
As well as Homestead.com, as all me other 4 sites became inaccessible, apparently due to some malware detected.
All of my homestead websites are getting this malware notice. Including Homestead. Wake up Homestead, I am getting ready to move all my websites and three accounts. Wake UP!
I have received notice from two different people that while trying to access my we page that they get a notice that malware is attached to my site. I have checked from home computer and laptop and I do not get this error. How can I remove such malware from my website?
Here is a copy of the error:
I got this mail from Google just now
"We wanted to alert you that one of your sites violates our advertising policies. Therefore, we won't be able to run any of your ads that link to that site, and any new ads pointing to that site will also be disapproved.
Policy violation: Malicious content"
Here's what you can do to fix your site and hopefully get your ad running again:
1. Make the necessary changes to your site that currently violates our policies:
Display URL: XXXX
What can I do as I rely on adwords for my business
The font sizes are huge, text covers photos, others are complaining about malware and blocked sites, and when I tried to comment here, I got a big red warning message, too! This just happened, this morning. We are in the US, EST zone. I am using Firefox, and the problem is not isolated to my computer, OR my Homestead websites. I have read that a lot of us are experiencing issues.
This message comes up when I visit the homestead webpage, when I try to log in web mail and also when I try to visit my own homestead hosted webpage ( which doesn't look very professional to my clients ) what is going on?
Malware warning blocks access to any homestead website, including ours. Very problematic. Please address this issue. 10-28-2014 7:45a est
This needs to be addressed immediately as I have a link on an email I just sent to over 500 customers for boat show directions.
Very bad timing...

Diagnostic page for www.homestead.com
What is the current listing
We are making progress toward a resolution and have confirmed that our main site www.homestead.com is not infected. We believe the cause of this to have originated from a single customer website. At this time we are working diligently with Google to find the source of this site in order to restore service to normal. We have found that most customers are able to access their sites using the Firefox browser. It appears at this time the Chrome browser is still blocking customer sites.
10am MST: UPDATE
We believe we have identified the problem and are implementing a fix at this time. We hope to have confirmation and a fix completed soon.
11:35 am MST:
We have already pushed out the fix for this issue and we are now awaiting Google to confirm and lift the warning message that you are all seeing. Unfortunately we don't have the ability to lift that message even though the problem has been fixed.
Get this malware ting taken care of, we are losing money. Then update you site builder...
I just got an email from Adwords indicating full suspension of my active ads. It has indicated this is due to the Malware issue and I suspect I am not the only one. I did follow their instructions into Webmaster Tools and have confirmed no Malware on my site.......... AKA: The suspension is due to the link to Homestead in our headers.
Question is........ will Homestead be addressing this directly with Google in order to resolve it for ALL Homestead customers. ORRRrrr do all of us have to take care of this issue via resubmitting our sites to Google...... I feel the former is how it should be taken care of as it will address everyone affected.
Thank you
Hello Peter0895:
Can you now access your site through Google Chrome? and if so how do you clear it with Google to get up and running again!
I seek Homestead's input regarding this issue and if they will be taking care of it directly with Google, which would be the most efficient way for all parties..... less Homestead of course. It would be easiest for Google and for us site owners.

|Haiti (Haïti in French; Ayiti in Haitian Creole; Hayti in 19th century English), officially the Republic of Haiti, occupies one third of the Caribbean island of Hispaniola, and also includes many smaller islands such as La Gonâve, La Tortue (Tortuga), Les Cayemites, Île de Anacaona, and La Grande Caye. The uninhabited island of Navasse is claimed both by Haiti and the United States. Haiti shares the island of Hispaniola with the Dominican Republic. The total area of Haiti is 10,714 square miles (27,750 km²) and its capital is Port-au-Prince. A former French colony, Haiti is the first independent black republic. Haiti became the second independent country in the Americas (after the United States) when it declared its independence on January 1st, 1804. Haiti has recently undergone a state of transition following an uprising, which forced President Jean-Bertrand Aristide to resign on February 29, 2004. He had been re-elected in 2000 in an election which several parties boycotted due to disputes with the vote-counting of a previous parliamentary election. René Préval was elected president in his place on February 7, 2006, and took office in May.

Botox ® V Dermal Fillers
Given the rapid development of Aesthetic procedures and the lack of information available in the public domain, I still come across new clients who are not sure about the differences between Botox® and dermal fillers. I thought it would be useful to outline the differences and the different uses of both, hoping to help you to make a better-informed choice.
What is Botox ®?
Botox ® is a Brand name of prescription only medicine, derived from toxin Called Botulinum Toxin. Other brands are available, example Bocouture ® Azzalure ® etc.
The medicine is a Neuromodulator (neurotoxin) and the effect is usually referred to as a muscle relaxing or muscle freezing.
Are all Neuromodulators the same?
The simple answer is no, depending on the chain of toxin, purity, and type. This could result in different efficacy and duration of action.
What is Filler?
Filler is a generic term that refers to substances that can be injected in to the skin, under the skin, or even much deeper. Fillers do not need to be prescribed they are available as medical devices, lay people can have access to them.
They Three main type of fillers are:
- Hyaluronic acid (the most common and main type of filler used, many brands are available)
- Calcium based Radiesse ®
- Polymer Base Ellanse ®
Are all Hyaluronic Acid filler the same?
The simple answer is no, the following factors pay a role:
- Concentration of HA
- Cross link in between the molecules
- Size of the chain
The above will affect viscosity, plasticity and strength.

They have known each other for 5 years and then separated. Though this is so, It's Showtime host Vice Ganda wishes the best for his ex boyfriend. In fact during an interview at the Buzz he narrated everything on how they met until they parted. And the best thing about this is probably the strongest statement that Vice has uttered after they have gone separate ways: "We are separated but we are never apart."
According to Vice, his ex boyfriend was a basketball player, though he did not mention his name and his identity was kept secret for several years. There was this instance when Vice watched his game. According to Vice he was such a good player. They became friends until such time that the guy came to watch It's Showtime and he liked Vice. Their feelings for each other went to the next level.
Though it is sad and painful, Vice wishes him the best in life. He wants him to have a wife and children and to become successful in the future. Vice will keep on clapping his hands upon the success of this guy because he believed that the guy was so nice.
The guy has so many plans in life and Vice would like him to achieve those plans. Vice would like him to travel to many places and meet and know many people. Though they have separated, Vice is still happy that they are still best friends. Breaking-up can be painful but it takes a positive attitude to overcome it.

Sooo hey there oppo, long time no see. I'm about to pull the trigger on an '84 Sunrader, a glorious 4600lb fiberglass rv sitting on a 1 ton Toyota truck chassis, with a 22re and a manual for max jalop points.
The rv part is a project, it needs a serious shagcarpetectomy, so I'd rather be sure the vehicle is solid. Never had a PPI done on a car so old, can I just take it into any shop? Anyone know a good shop for old Japanese awesomeness south of Seattle (Kent/Auburn/Federal Way type area)?

If you're looking for a new snack to nibble on during the day, look no further. I am a fan of snacking on things like nuts, cheese, wasabi peas.... but sometimes you need to switch it up. This is a super simple, healthy and easy recipe. Chickpeas are great to work with because you can really play around with various spices when cooking with them due to their mild flavor.

Applying transient electric field to a fluid dynamic simulation
Posted 11 Jan 2019, 07:03 GMT-5 Electrical, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), Mesh Version 5.4 0 Replies
Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam
I am currently attempting to simulate a droplet of conductive fluid moving through an electrical field. The droplet is moving correctly over time, however from what I can tell the electrical simulation is doing a time dependant simulation of the geometrys initial condition, and does not adapt when the droplet deforms. I have tried to add the deformed geometry physics, and the moving mesh physics but neither of these have adjusted the simulation.
What would be the best way of making these two physics work together? Any help would be greatly appriciated
