One of the most onerous aspects of losing weight is all the planning. Most people who have ever considered, much less attempted weight loss know that planning is key. It's so important that dieters live by motivational quotes such as, "Those who fail to plan, plan to fail."
Where does that leave people like me who are not good planners and want to lose weight and keep it off? I'll tell you where it leaves us; it leaves us learning how to lose weight on the run and winning.
If you're genetically predisposed to planning, then planning your weight loss strategies and sticking to your plans works well. If, however, planning is not a natural thing for you, it's hard to plan your strategies and harder still to stick to your plans.
I would like to offer my time tested and effective way to diet on the run. Forget planning and instead have confidence that you're completely capable of making choices that will bring you to where you want to go with your weight-related goals.
- Be confident. There's no need to second-guess yourself. You don't need a plan to be successful. You just need to keep your eye on the goal.
- Keep your eye on the goal. You can get where you want to go without a plan as long as you remember where you want to go. It's like the navigation system in your car. You enter a destination. No matter how often or how many wrong turns you make your navigation system continues to reroute to ensure you get to where you want to go.
- Keep a log of where you've been. If you want to move towards your goal it helps to know where you've been. Tracking food and physical activity as accurately as possible and as often as possible, helps when you need to make a choice on the run and feel confident it's another step in the right direction.
Here is how to make better food choices when eating on the run
- Fast food is your friend in several important ways.
- You have built-in portion control. Unlike a lot of restaurants where they place platters full of food in front of you, fast food portions are smaller, just don't agree to the offer to "super size" your meal.
- Fast food salads give you a choice of grilled or crispy chicken. Stick to the grilled chicken. Dressings and toppings are served on the side. Use them sparingly or not at all.
- The food at fast food chains is predictable. You know what's on the menu so you can order without having to read the whole menu and get tempted to order something that has more calories and perhaps less nutritious.
- Grocery stores are your friend.
- Don't worry about planning your meals and snacks to take with you. There are supermarkets practically everywhere. You can run in to get a low-calorie nutritious snack of fruit or vegetables whenever you get hungry.
- If it's meal time and you're in a hurry try a hot, roasted chicken. Some supermarkets also have hot, roasted turkey breast too. In a pinch there are always a lot of reduced-calorie frozen entrees too. No need to plan menus in advance.
- Choose whole foods (foods that have not been processed or are as close to how to appear in nature as possible) Eating whole foods is an easy way to eat more nutritiously while reducing calories.
How to get more physical activity without planning in one easy step
- Wear, or keep handy, comfortable shoes.
- Going to the gym takes planning. Putting on some comfy shoes and getting some extra steps in when the opportunity presents itself takes no planning at all.
That's it. Losing weight doesn't have to be a matter of planning, Do these things and you can successfully diet on the run.

FORMER T&T Pro League chairman Richard Fakoory was remembered for his passion for sport, particularly football and basketball, as well as youth development.
The 71-year-old Fakoory was buried at the Mucurapo cemetery yesterday, after a funeral at St Finbar's RC Church,Diego Martin.
Fakoory was the Pro League chairman from March 2018 until his death last Wednesday. He was also the owner of St Ann's Rangers for over 40 years, until he sold the club to Terminix Ltd, and also founded the Super Ten Basketball League, along with fellow businessman Dave Ramkissoon, in 1987.
Speaking at the funeral, T&T men's football team manager Richard Piper mentioned, "Richard Fakoory (was), apart from my business partner with St Ann's Rangers Football Club, also a big brother/father figure to me.
"He was someone who was my motivation as far as football was concerned, and I hope someday to, at least follow in his footsteps, in some way (or) fashion. We've lost a true gem as far as a human being is concerned."
Piper, a former FIFA referee, knew Fakoory for 22 years and was persuaded to join the club's management on his retirement.
"A lot of people would have known him in sport, but he was a very devoted family man," said Piper. "He did (a lot) for the underprivileged youths in the country, not only in the Port of Spain area but even (in) Tobago. I know he was responsible for moulding a number of players who would have gone through to represent our national team. Richard was truly a gem of an individual."
Delivering the eulogy was Fakoory's son Kyle, who spoke about his father's love for his family. He also touched on his father's communication skills.
"When one person was talking, the next one was listening," said Kyle. "If both of us were talking together, we can't get it done or we can't understand."
Ex-Rangers player and coach Clayton Morris described Fakoory as "very passionate about both basketball and football."
The Strike Squad captain and central defender said, "My family were very close with him. Hearing the news of his passing, I called my sister and we cried together on the phone. That's to tell you the kind of family bonding we had.
"We did have a little misunderstanding with regards to Rangers and (its sale to) Terminix. We (were) supposed to discuss the issue. We didn't have time and then he met his demise.
"I must send condolences to his wife (Angela). My family are all praying for her and we wish her all the best through this journey. It's a tough one, but God knows best. May Richard's soul rest in peace."
Morris said, Fakoory was responsible for "a lot of youths who came out of Rangers and went on to play for TT. The players in Rangers would respect him, and we'll always cherish those moments. He gave his life to help those youths in the community."
Also paying tribute to Fakoory yesterday was Pro League CEO Julia Baptiste, who said she would miss Fakoory.
Anthony Streete, former Rangers coach, touched upon his time at the club, when, he said, Fakoory always stressed the need to see youths improve.
Among those at yesterday's service were TT Football Association (TTFA) president David John-Williams and his predecessor Raymond Tim Kee, past national players Brent Sancho, Angus Eve and Clayton Ince, TT Super League president Keith Look Loy, TT Olympic Committee (TTOC) president Brian Lewis, and members of the football, basketball and business communities.

Fakoory - A Genuine Youth Developer
By Colin Murray (Guardian).
The sudden passing of Richard Elias Fakoory left me stunned in the same manner as that of young Stefan Monteil. Richard was 71 and I never knew him to have any health issues so when he died with his wife at his side, it made me yet again reflect on life. It brought back memories of a conversation between my good friend Stanley Hunter and I in our younger days after I said to him, "Stan boy you moving fast I hope you don't suffer from burn out." His immediate response was, "Murray, let me tell you something, this life ain't no dress rehearsal so I living and furthermore, I never met anybody who said to me they were here before." I couldn't argue with those words as they were so true.
Fakoory was a true gentleman - very humble and always willing to reach out to whoever was in need of his assistance. I met the gentleman some 31 years ago when he approached me seeking sponsorship, not for football, but basketball as he had just started the Super10 Basketball League (SBL). It was my first encounter with him and he appeared very genuine in wanting to support the youths and get them off the streets and playing basketball.
The Super10 consisted of the 10 best playing basketball teams in the country playing for prize money that exceeded the expectations of the basketball fraternity. Gentleman Richard and his partner Dave Ramkissoon pounded the pavements seeking sponsorship and of course he succeeded in reaching his goals because it was felt that with Richard at the helm with his administrative and operational skills, the league was going to be successful. It certainly was successful as the league operated for many years and the template for its success was copied by the National Basketball Federation (NBF) of T&T.
It was no surprise to me when he got more involved in football again assisting the youths. He always placed the players at the forefront and always wanted what he felt would have been best for them. At the time I was still working at Carib and a couple of the guys from the bottling hall came to my office one day and said they wanted to enter a team in the then TTFF East zone. I thought it was a delusional idea - a bunch of factory workers who bottle beer and work in the various warehouses want to tackle the powerhouses of the East zone like San Juan Jabloteh and the likes? Worse than that, they asked me to coach the team. Not wanting to refuse them as I felt integration with the office staff and the guys from the factory was good for morale within the company, I obliged.
I was pleasantly surprised at the ability of the guys and I felt once I could instil some discipline and organisation into the team, they would do well and suddenly other teams started to take notice of the Carib FC team. They were making a name for themselves in the East Zone. I was quite content to go along with the players I had as we kept the squad confined to those who actually worked at the Brewery.
The reason for this background is simple. One day I got a phone call from Richard and he said he had a player for me. I told him I did not need any players as I have enough here on the team. He literally begged me and would not put down the phone. He said the player would run through a brick wall for me and all he wanted me to do was give him a job. That player was Marvin Andrews. Marvin at the time had represented the T&T youth team but had suffered a series of injuries and was just returning to competitive football.
Here was Richard Fakoory offering me a player that would have made his team - ECM Motown - without a problem but his major concern was not himself or his own team, but for Marvin to get a job and still play football at a competitive level. History would show that with Marvin in the team, we went on to win the East Zone and qualified for the Champion of Champions league and then qualified for the Semi-pro League. At that point, I couldn't continue and Marvin left for a professional contract with Raith Rovers F.C. in Scotland but all this was because of Richard Fakoory.
Every time I encountered Richard he was the same way. I never heard him raise his voice even though some of the people who worked with him in basketball would tell a different story - he was tough. I met him in the grocery with his wife shopping a few weeks ago and he was chatting to me about local football. I could have felt the pain in his voice and he said to me, "would you come on board?" and I promised him we will talk. Sadly that was my final discussion with him.
Richard Fakoory will always be remembered as a people's person and my deepest condolences to his family and all those who were touched by his genuine kindness. May he rest in peace.

Proud to Partner with Hanes
21/12/2010 at 8:00 am Leave a comment
WINSTON-SALEM – Activewear and sock maker Hanesbrands Inc. has received accreditation for its global social compliance program from the Fair Labor Association, a workers' rights group based in Washington, D.C.
The company has also had its Social Responsibility and Environmental Stewardship schemes recognised in the latest report from corporate social responsibility organisation As You Sow.
The Fair Labor Association works with industry, civil society organisations and colleges and universities to protect workers' rights and improve working conditions in factories around the world. Following a two year review process, the FLA accredited the social compliance programs of Hanesbrands and Gear For Sports, Inc., now owned by Hanesbrands.
To earn accreditation, FLA member companies are required to fulfil 10 company obligations, including conducting internal monitoring of facilities, submitting to unannounced independent monitoring audits and verification of company and supplier plants, and managing and reporting information on their compliance efforts.
"The FLA is pleased to have Hanesbrands as an accredited affiliated company dedicated to protecting workers' rights and to meeting and exceeding international labour standards," said FLA President and CEO Auret van Heerden. "We appreciate the company's commitment to fair labour standards."
Elsewhere, Hanesbrands said it had scored well for global supply chain compliance programs in an independent study conducted by As You Sow. The San Francisco-based group's report, "Toward a Safe, Just Workplace: Apparel Supply Chain Compliance Programs," was published in November and gave Hanesbrands' code-of-conduct compliance program a letter grade of B, the third-highest grade of apparel companies studied.
In the report, Hanesbrands was noted for having 100% of its compliance audits conducted unannounced and for having initial and annual audits verified independently.
The full report can be read on the As You Sow website, www.asyousow.org.

The Company was represented this year by Ronnie Murning an Assistant on the Court and an experienced project manager. Ronnie's take on the event was:
I also ..... discussed broadening the naming of the WCofCA prize to procurement and construction. The organizers were supportive of the suggestion and will hopefully raise the matter for discussion at the next committee meeting.
The logic is that it would be then consistent in that the WCofConstructors gave the design prize and we gave the procurement and construction prize covering the whole spectrum of a project from inception to completion.
With the inclusion of the construction element, which is a discrete activity within the weekend's overall programme, it is complementary and in balance with the design prize. It also reinforces the teamwork connection as the Constructors give the design prize and the Architects give the procurement and construction prize.'

Ever had a house guest who has outstayed their welcome? It could be a family member, old school friend or acquaintance who has taken up residence in your house for longer than expected. They said they would stay only for a few days, then a week goes by and you begin to get impatient and frustrated. Politeness and your good manners keep you from broaching the subject of their stay. What to do?
The analogy of the unwelcome house guest fits with the current market for imported thermal coal in China. When China opened its door to what would become prodigious amounts of imported thermal coal in 2008, the country's appetite for carbon-based fuel had begun to outpace its domestic supplies. Guests were invited by China to sell cargoes of imported thermal coal to coastal power plants providing power to its economy, which at the time was expanding at a double-digit pace. Imports steadily grew in volume to reach 170 million mt of thermal coal in the 2013 year — most of this from Australia and Indonesia.
Then last year came signs that China's economic growth was slowing, and its domestic coal industry entered a dramatic slump as output surpassed demand, sending prices for Chinese thermal coal into a tailspin. Imported thermal coal was no longer required in the quantities previously provided by Australia and Indonesia. Indeed, China had its own coal industry and the jobs of millions of coal miners to protect.
China's import figures are stark for any Australian or Indonesian thermal coal shipper. In the month of February, which admittedly included the Lunar New Year holiday, China imported 4.72 million mt of bituminous thermal coal compared with 8.75 million mt in February 2014. February's imports equate to 56.6 million mt on an annualized basis, compared with 111.6 million mt actually shipped to China in the 2014 year — a potential on-year decline of 49%. The party, therefore, appears to be mostly over for shipments of imported thermal coal for China.

In case this had not dawned on some guests, the host country has been dropping some substantial hints over the past six months. These hints include: China putting a 6% tax on imports of thermal coal from Australia, Russia and South Africa (Indonesian imports are exempt under an existing free trade agreement); introducing a testing regime at Chinese ports for trace chemical elements in coal such as chlorine and phosphorus; and restricting entry to some Chinese ports for cargoes with ash higher than 16%.
On top of this, Chinese thermal coal producers such as Shenhua have aggressively cut their prices to increase market share and to better compete with imports, and Beijing has instructed power companies to reduce their intake of fuel from the seaborne market.
As if all of these measures were not enough, at last week's Coaltrans China coal industry conference in Beijing, two of China's largest coal producers said they wanted to revive the export trade for Chinese thermal coal into Asia.
"We are trying to build our overseas customer base, and [our] exports are due to increase," Shenhua Group Vice General Manager Wang Xiaolin told the conference.
"As to the increase of coal exports, we are studying this and we plan to increase the exports of coal," said Datong Coal Mining Group Vice General Manager Jin Hua. China exported around 2.5 million mt of its thermal coal mostly to customers in Asia last year, and any sizeable growth in this trade would add to the region's already oversupplied seaborne market.
For any remaining guests at China's market for imported thermal coal, the message from Beijing seems to pretty clear: that for now, less imports are required. It's time to pack one's bags and head home.

recipes: comfort food chicken sopas
August 17, 2011 Leave a comment
day 17 of the 30 day blog challenge
photo source: click the photo to visit the site, Kusina ni Manang 🙂
one of the best comfort food i have ever known would be chicken sopas, some may call it chicken soup; but the effects after scooping in a hearty spoonful into your mouth feels like the most comforting hug your mom ever gave you.
and since sharing is caring, i'll share my own recipe for chicken sopas. 🙂
what you need: (note: i don't do exact measurements and i cook based on my taste)
chicken breasts or thighs around 2-3 pcs
salt and pepper
1 pack of 1kg macaroni noodles or depending on how many you want to prepare
1 can evaporated milk
1 tetra pack of cream
garlic & onion
what you do:
boil the chicken for 30 mins or more until you get that perfect chicken stock
don't throw away the boiled stock, this will be your soup base
flake the chicken to your desired size (strips, chunks etc)
saute garlic and onion
add the chicken
add a dash of patis/fish sauce
season with salt & pepper
what i learned from my mom so that the noodles won't get too soggy and big after cooking them is to add the raw noodles while sauteeing the chicken, garlic and onions.
transfer everything into the stock. bring to a simmer
add the carrots, potatoes, celery or other veggies you like
add the evaporated milk and cream (this is where you can gauge how much milk you want. my kids & myself love it really creamy and milky)
simmer (again) until the veggies are soft
season with salt & pepper
and serve with love and a smile 🙂

The largest veterans group in the United States wants the suits on Capitol Hill to provide wounded soldiers with access to medical marijuana.
According to a report from Stars & Stripes, the American Legion, which represents more than 2 million vets, passed a resolution earlier this week pressuring the federal government to give doctors employed with the Department of Veterans Affairs the ability to discuss and recommend medical marijuana in states where it is legal.
"More than half the states in the union have passed medical marijuana laws to date," the resolution reads. "The American Legion urge the United States government to permit VA medical providers to be able to discuss with veterans the use of marijuana for medical purposes and recommend it in those states where medical marijuana laws exist."
The motion came to pass during the organization's national convention in Reno, Nevada. The objective is to let the nation's leaders know just how important this issue is for the thousands of veterans who could be using medical marijuana as an alternative to dangerous prescription drugs.
"Our state congressmen, when the American Legion says something, they listen. Hopefully, this will have the same impact at the federal level," said American Legion member Rob Ryan, who drafted the resolution. "People should not be afraid to go to their doctors and talk honestly."
This is not the first time the American Legion has come forward in support of marijuana reform.
Last year, the group called for the federal government to remove marijuana from its Schedule I classification under the DEA's Controlled Substances Act. The decree was intended to persuade the federal government to lift the restrictions that have prevented the cannabis plant from being considered medicine for those vets suffering from serious health conditions like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and traumatic brain injury (TBI).
As it stands, it is against the rules for Veterans Affairs doctors to even mention marijuana as a treatment option to their patients. Although this policy technically expired well over a year ago, the department still hasn't published an update.
In May, VA Secretary David Shulkin said the department was "interested in looking at" cannabis for its potential therapeutic benefits, "but until the time that federal law changes, we are not able to be able to prescribe medical marijuana for conditions that may be helpful."
However, there is hope that Legion's latest call for medical marijuana access will push Congress to take action where it has failed so many times before.
"Year after year, we've never been able to pass the Veterans Equal Access amendment," said Dr. Sue Sisley, who is presently exploring how marijuana can help veterans with PTSD. "With the full weight of the American Legion behind this next round of legislation, I know we can finally get this approved."

Energy- it's what keeps the manufacturing process and plant equipment going, the computers powered and even keeps the lights on. Energy production to run production facilities is one of the biggest expenses operators face…as high as 40% in some industries. And yet, in many cases, no one at the executive level is in charge of it.
There are major benefits to have energy management as part of the C-Suite decision making. And that is how the other "CEO" – namely the Chief Energy Officer – can serve an important role for the Board of Directors, stakeholders, the C-Suite, and the overall business. Energy management is, and should continue to be, a strategic priority for businesses.
Studies show that for Top Quartile Performance energy managers, a properly managed Energy Management Information System (EMIS) can result in energy cost savings of 5 to 15 percent, which can equate to millions of dollars saved annually. Best-in-class performers achieved 13 percent year-over-year reduction in energy consumption and 12 percent improvement in operating margin, while laggards suffered 17 percent increase in energy consumption and 2.5 percent decrease in operating margin.
These types of systems help manage energy across different plants, buildings, and other energy sites with real-time information. This timely evaluation of energy use can identify intermittent patterns or gradual changes that indicate opportunities for reducing energy consumption.
Typically, energy systems are managed on a plant-by-plant basis. However, corporate ownership of plants has been consolidated through acquisitions. Enterprise-wide management approaches make sense for several business areas from HR and financial departments, to risk management and occupational safety. Energy management can and should follow suit.
The Business Roundtable previously conducted a study of the different energy management approaches to better understand more about energy systems and its connection with the C-Suite. This study examined initiatives involving sustainability, energy efficiency, traditional energy production and renewable energy, to name a few. It cited studies from the Rockefeller Foundation and Electric Power Research Institute on the large amount of energy savings that can be gained through energy efficiency retrofits. This Business Roundtable study also provided policy recommendations to improve energy efficiency innovation, including on the need for research on cost-effective technologies.
Having an EMIS in place fosters growth with financial and environmental payoffs. An enterprise-wide energy management approach can provide a substantial return on assets. Energy managed across all facilities can build and support energy-saving behaviors while also tapping into an aligned business corporate culture. By appointing a Chief Energy Officer, there are opportunities to:
- Establish and maintain site energy targets
- Gain better visibility with site energy performance
- Share information on energy performance with key stakeholders
For example, a paper and pulp mill worked with Emerson to better understand its energy usage and to identify ways to improve efficiency. The mill's team harnessed wireless technology from Emerson and was able to reduce energy demands with this technology, resulting in a savings of $350,000 for the first year.
With the "other CEO" in place, it is possible to achieve solutions to existing and potential energy problems. While the path ahead isn't easy, with the help of energy management leaders, there are approaches to anticipate and plan for energy price increases, environmental regulations, and operating cost reduction. The energy leader will help support the path to better energy management with an enterprise-wide energy standard. Strengthening the connection between energy management and the C-Suite through an enterprise energy management system can help benefit the bottom line by optimizing assets and saving money on energy costs.

EIF avails N$100 million for climate change proposals
Albertina Nakale WINDHOEK – Individuals who are entrepreneurially inclined, as well as community-based organisations operating conservancies and forests, are being encouraged to apply for grants from the N$100-million Environmental Investment Fund (EIF). Proposals that will receive the fund's attention are those that aim at addressing climate change problems in the country. Namibia secured the funds from the Green Climate Fund (GCF) in October 2016. Applicants for these funds must be operating within the Community Based Natural Resource Management (CBNRM) sector in Namibia. This is because the funds particularly seek to deliver funding directly to duly gazetted communal conservancies and community forests. According to the Minister of Environment and Tourism, Pohamba Shifeta, through this grant facility the EIF intends to invest up to US$8 million (an estimated N$100 million) into 33 proposals from successful applicants who come up with solution ideas on addressing climate change problems. The climate change problems include climate-resilient agriculture, climate-proof infrastructure and ecosystem-based adaptations. "The projects are expected to build the resilience of more than 76,000 people living in climate change-prone areas," Shifeta said. Shifeta said individual grants will range from about N$1.2 million to N$5.3 million, depending on the exchange rate between the Namibia dollar and US dollar at the time of the award, while project duration can range from as short as six months up to a maximum of three years. Last year, August 30, in the presence of the Green Climate Fund Secretariat and Deputy Prime Minister Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, Shifeta launched two national climate adaptation projects that will have significant impacts on the livelihoods of Namibians living in both crop-growing areas and (CBNRM EDA) areas of the country. At the launch, Shifeta emphasised the importance of climate interventions for the country's sustainable development and the need to implement the approved projects with a sense of urgency and operational efficiency. It is against this backdrop that Shifeta on Monday launched an important component of one of the projects – the "Empower to Adapt: Creating Climate Change Resilient Livelihoods through CBNRM EDA Project". The component makes provision for a grant facility, fully funded by the GFC through the EIF of Namibia, for which the first "Call for Proposals" Shifeta announced yesterday. He said the funding, secured through GCF's Enhanced Direct Access (EDA) modality, is ring-fenced for investment into community-level climate change adaptation activities through community-based organisations. "The intention with this funding is to enable the CBNRM communities to address specific climate change problems in their areas in order to increase their resilience to the impacts of climate change and thereby secure their livelihoods," Shifeta said. Therefore, through this grant facility, he noted, the government envisages to reach a total of 76,000 beneficiaries broken down as 15,000 direct and 61,000 indirect beneficiaries in all communal areas of Namibia where conservancies and community forests occur. During this time, he stressed, the eligible CBNRM organisations are expected to develop project proposals strictly in accordance with the templates and guidelines provided by the EIF. He said such proposals must be submitted to the EIF, the administrator of the grant facility, in the prescribed manner on or before the closing date. Shifeta added the period starts on August 3 and will run until November 3 this year.

And that brings us to the big lesson the GOP should take from the entire Trump affair: There is another side to the Republican Party, one that the GOP has tried to ignore, and can ignore no longer. It's a side of the party that has learned to distrust its leaders on immigration, to be suspicious of a turbo-charged capitalism that threatens their way of life. And it may be a side of the party that is needed to return the GOP to presidential victories. It is the forgotten part of the Nixon-Reagan coalition. And by being ignored, it has turned angrier and more toxic.
But whoever eventually vanquishes Trump will still have to address the Trump phenomena. The billionaire has energized a large block of disaffected white voters who feel betrayed by the establishment of both parties and lost in an increasingly globalized economy. But he has also alienated huge swaths of the electorate with his angry rhetoric about immigrants and Muslims. Whoever gets the GOP nomination will have to figure out how to keep Trump's supporters in the fold and get them out on Election Day to defeat Clinton in key swing states where the Democratic nominee is likely to dominate among women and other key demographic groups.
A menu of supply side tax cuts that deliver huge benefits to the wealthy and big corporations won't do it. It's not clear what will. Even if Trump falls, Republicans will still have a big Trump problem.

Graduate thanks his "hidden figures" on the path to medical schoolAyodamola Otun | Biology, Undergraduate | Biology Department In 2016, Ayodamola Otun was presented with one of IUPUI's most prestigious awards, Top Male Student at Top 100. He accepted this award not with speech but, to the surprise and delight of attendees at the ceremony, a song.
At the graduation ceremony for the class of 2017 Otun once again took the stage, this time to tell the story of how he, a boy from the middle of nowhere, succeeded at IUPUI and fulfilled his dream of being accepted into medical school. The following is an excerpt from his graduation speech.
"A few months ago, I was watching the movie Hidden Figures with some friends from the IUPUI Biology Club. We had free tickets – you know how students love free things. If you haven't seen it, I encourage you to do so. The movie is about three African American ladies, Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan and Mary Jackson, who were essential in America's flight to the moon. However, they don't teach us about them in history classes. I didn't even know they existed before I saw the movie. But, we all know Neil Armstrong. These three ladies were his hidden figures.
"I ask that as we enjoy this day and bathe in self-love, let us pause for a second and remember the people who got us into our cap and gown today.
"Let me tell a short story. There was a boy born in a town in a middle of nowhere standing in front of a podium singing a song as he received one of the most prestigious awards at his college in the center of somewhere. He couldn't believe it. In few minutes, social media was bustling with stories about this boy. Even people he didn't know told him they wanted to be like him. What these people saw was only this high achieving person. Nobody saw the tears he shed and the people who comforted him. Nobody saw the fear he had and the people who inspired and gave him hope. Nobody saw his broke bank account and the people who supplied him cash and fed him. The same way, we don't see struggles or hidden figures, we only see the people wearing the caps and gowns today.
"This boy from nowhere is Ayodamola Otun. For those that don't know, that's me. When I look back, about three years ago, it is amazing the path life has taken me through. I couldn't have succeeded in college without my hidden figures in the School of Science. When I came to the country, I started in the winter of 2014, the coldest in 20 years. I had to adapt to the new culture, weather, food, people, and also do well in school. I found a safe haven in the School of Science. I love academics and the people I met kept me excited about school even when I questioned if I would be able to make it through and become a good doctor.
"I remember during my second year at school, my father's finances were greatly impacted by the declining economy of Nigeria and his salary wasn't paid. I had to find a way to pay for school so I went from office to office asking for help. When I say the people I've met at IUPUI are the reason I am here, I mean every single word of it. They have seen me happy and also very sad but they have really tried their best to bring a smile back to my face. There is so much to say in such a little time but my hidden figures have gotten me this far.
"Now, I leave you with an encouragement to remember to appreciate the people around you and to give back and become a hidden figure for others. It will make life a lot easier. Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this! You and I and our hidden figures have made it here today. Let us forever cherish this moment and I know you will all do great things."
Otun grew up in Nigeria and decided to attend IUPUI so that he could be a part of a rich community of students with different cultural backgrounds and because he wanted to have access to internship opportunities at businesses near IUPUI such as Eli Lilly.
While at IUPUI, Otun was an IUPUI University College Chancellor Scholar, Norman Brown Diversity and Leadership Scholar, Olaniyan Diversity Research Scholar, Sam H. Jones Community Service Scholar and won three biology awards in the School of Science. He completed ion transport across a brain epithelium research with biology professor Bonnie Blazer Yost, Ph.D. and two internships with Eli Lilly. He will begin medical school this fall at Washington University in St. Louis.

New full-text linking tool now available from BSC Library!
The BSC Library is pleased to announce the introduction of a new service, Articles@BSC. Articles@BSC is an OpenURL revolver we have licensed from SerialsSolutions. SerialsSolution has been the provider of our Periodicals@BSC service, an online tool which helps our users identify and link to the full-text periodicals to which the Library has access. Articles@BSC goes a step beyond Periodicals@BSC. Periodicals@BSC answers the question "Does BSC have on-line access to the periodical title?" but it is then up to the user to navigate to the article through a sometimes ponderous process. We think it is a great way to take advantage of the over 27,000 electronic journals to which BSC has access. To use Articles@BSC, just do a search from one of many of the Indexes and Databases available from the Library's home page. As you look at citations, you will see the Articles@BSC listing and sometimes the BSC image: Let us know if you have questions and comments.

Wikipedia - on the level?
There is an interesting article on Wikipedia in today's (9/4/2007) Birmingham News. It is about the accuracy of Wikipedia and the ability for most anyone to change entries. Take a look at: http://www.al.com/news/birminghamnews/index.ssf?/base/news/118889437773340.xml&coll=2 This is a good example of the fact that not everything you see in Internet is correct.

When you are searching for an app-listing platform, you may look for flashy sites that advertise their apps as the best on the market. However, much can be said for the smaller startup platforms that are willing to go above and beyond for their users. Many platforms are designed simply to mass-market apps with not much regard for each user. That is where World of Mobile Apps stands apart from the rest.
Smaller Is Better
In the same way that large corporations lose some of their most talented workers due to bureaucracy, they can lose customers for the same reason. When you use a smaller platform instead of a huge one, you are apt to receive better service altogether. Additionally, your app is more likely to stand out from the rest of the crowd and attract more users who frequent the platform.
Because World of Mobile Apps is a growing platform, your app will not get lost among a sea of competitors – and that means users will be able to find your app more easily than on other platforms. That also means customer support will be easier to reach, faster to respond, and genuinely more interested in getting your issues resolved than many mega-corporations will ever be. You will receive the kind of attention to detail that only a growing startup might provide.
Commitment to Excellence
The people behind World of Mobile Apps are devoted to growing the platform in a way that benefits everyone involved. They want to see you succeed as an app developer and marketer as much as they seek success for themselves. They are impassioned about mobile apps and enjoy testing them for usability.
That level of professional sincerity and enthusiasm makes World of Mobile Apps a true asset to any app developer. The commitment to excellence extends to every aspect of the platform. From the app marketers to the mobile app users, everyone who utilizes World of Mobile Apps is meant to have a positive experience at every step of the way.
Building an epic mobile app takes time, work, and dedication. Once you create a product that satisfies you, listing it in the right place is imperative. When you use an app-listing platform like World of Mobile Apps, you won't get lost in the crowd – and neither will your app.

What's the Difference Between a Boss and a Leader?
From an early age, my grandfather was an instinctual entrepreneur with a knack for building relationships and businesses. He always told me, "the sign of a good leader is having others follow them."
The other day, this motto came to mind when my daughter sent me the following cartoon:
the difference between a boss and a leader
The cartoon depicts a "Boss" sitting atop a chariot at his desk, pointing a finger and dictating at three men pulling him forward. Below the image of the Boss, there is an image of an empty chariot with a "Leader" heading his team of pullers.
Today, I want to talk about the difference between a "Boss" and a "Leader."
A boss is that individual that supervises his or her employees. He watches them to make sure they're working and on task. At his worst, the Boss treats his employees like lowly servants. At his best, he gets the job done but goes no further. He has no interest in bettering his employees, encouraging them to take training courses or improve themselves;a boss is not a teacher.
A leader is something very different.
A leader is a motivator. He takes time to build teams of people who respect him. As the cartoon demonstrates, he is right in there with his employees, learning and collaborating with them. As my grandfather said, a leader's team "follows him" because he believes in leading by example. His talents—his ability to get the job done, to be innovative, etc.— are inspiring to his team. I keep using the word "team" because that's how the Leader perceives his people: not as lowly "employees" but as respected members of his work family, his "teammates."
A leader must listen, learn and respect the opinions of others. No one ever learned anything by talking. Make your staff feel involved, and they will buy into your goals and aspirations; you will get where you are trying to go much quicker and with less friction. Does this mean that you should only listen and take advice from your top executives and advisors? Absolutely not. Let me share with you a true story that happened to my grandfather many years ago.
My grandfather was getting ready to walk into a building in downtown Washington, DC to purchase it from the owner, who had an office on the top floor. When he stepped into the elevator, he decided to hit the down button instead of the up button. He got out into the basement and walked into the building engineer's office, where he met up with the man who knew the building better than anyone. He struck up a conversation with the gentlemen, and within 30 minutes, he learned not only what was right with the building but also what was wrong with it. He then proceeded to get back on the elevator to meet with the building owner and with this new knowledge, he saved himself a huge sum of money. His negotiating power increased dramatically when he took the time to listen to others. He ended up purchasing the building while maintaining an excellent and long term relationship with his engineer.
This true story has never left my mind. We never know what we can learn from listening to others. A true leader can gather information, process it and then implement those ideas while developing a bond with those who helped develop the solution. Never forget to share the credit with those who contributed. The outcome you will receive is a loyal and committed employee for life.
Today's successful leaders are quite different. They will typically have employees that want to be fully engaged at all levels. Work matters to these people, and they want to be part of something good. Most importantly, they need to have the confidence, faith and belief in what the person in charge is doing.

Discussion in 'PlayStation Vita Games' started by Billybobbean, Feb 25, 2015.
I think i am going to preorder it, did you?
Yep, with Play Asia.
Do you think is worth it? It seemed weird in the trailer. I still need to get spongebob and toukiden kiwami and lego ninjago shadow of ronin for the collection...
Has spongebob launched in EU? All I can find is a few Amazon sellers whom I suspect have the US version.
It did in spain at least
Moero Chronicle is supposedly the most pervy Vita game out there with destructible clothing, panties collecting, crafting using panties, equipping panties and then there is Otton, a seal who is a "wandering panty hunter". There is also monster girl rubbing à la Monster Monpiece I think. Most of the gameplay seems to be a pretty straight forward dungeon crawler though so it could be decent I guess.
Ive been waiting for Senran Kagura Bon Appetite to come to Canada. Its realeasing the physical in asia along with Shinobi VS so I think we can expect the same? *crosses fingas*
Do you mean this one as it came out in December last year.
YES. Any idea if/when its westernized?
Shinovi Versus already saw physical release in the US and digital in the EU. Bon Appetite ain't comming westwards in physical form though. Its available on the PSN store digitally if you just want to play though.
I'd hate to invest in data. I already supported the app creators on PS mobile and that dint work out LOL lets hope they do send it our way-limited edition!
Shinovi versus physical was only released as a "limited edition" with a CD and art book > link < I wouldn't hold your breath for Bon Appetite, its not going to happen
Yeah ive got that set soundtrack is purely for keepsake..
Play Asia now have it up for pre-order again.
*GASP* there is still hope. I think I'll go for it
I just preordered it but I thought they charge you when they ship the game, right? They just charged me for it...
Some of y'all seem pretty heavy on collecting and there is an Asian English LE announced for Malaysia. It might become available for purchase too if you don't mind waiting.
If you pay via paypal it seems to be instant charge, plus I think it'll be being sent next week so even if you didn't it would make sense to charge you now.
I knew that about paypal, that is why I paid with debit card, then It must mean they are shipping them next week!
Hopefully! The eBay seller that I saw had it said dispatching on the 30th so I'd image play Asia will be the same.
Playasia just shipped my copy of Oreshika Tainted blood (English Version)
Ditto, kinda regret paying for fast shipping though thanks to the bank holiday weekend I'll be waiting till next wednesday
Here's hoping it does turn out to be full english
Just checked same here, finally I was wondering when they were going to ship it.
My preorder of Oreshika was also sent out today. Hope the game also has german subtitles. That would be really cool^^
Quoting my own post here, but Play Asia have now closed their pre-orders for this game.
This is a product with limited availability and our allocations have been presold. If you have preordered this item, your order has usually been confirmed. If you plan to purchase this item, please check back on the item's release date for possible restock.
I wonder what their allocation was & just how limited this print run is. YesAsia is still taking pre-orders.
Separate names with a comma.

A famous story told by the Hasidic master, Rabbi Nahman of Bratslav.
Once a family was cursed, and their son, their pride and joy, became convinced he was a rooster. He removed his clothes, and sat clucking beneath the family table. He refused to eat human food, only chicken food. He refused to speak.
The parents were beside themselves. The called in doctors, healers, therapists, wizards. No one could help. Finally, they invited the rabbi. The rabbi assured them he could cure the boy, but it would be unconventional. The parents agree immediately. "Just heal our boy."
So the rabbi took off his clothes, descended down under the table, began clucking like a rooster and eating rooster food. And now the parents are truly astonished, they now had a pair of roosters in the house.
The rabbi and the boy spend the day together, clucking and eating chicken food. And at one point the rabbi turned to the boy and said, "It hurts my throat to speak this way. Wouldn't it be better for us to speak like people?"
"But we're roosters!" exclaimed the boy.
"So we'll be roosters who speak like people," responded the rabbi. And the boy agreed. So they spoke.
The rabbi said, "it's cold here with no clothes. Wouldn't it be better for us to dress like people?"
"But we're roosters! Roosters don't wear clothes" exclaimed the boy.
"So we'll be roosters who dress like people," responded the rabbi. And the boy agreed, and he dressed. And the rabbi said, "I don't really like rooster food, wouldn't it be better to eat like people?" And the boy agreed.
Finally, the rabbi said, "My back hurts. Wouldn't it be better for us to stand and walk the world like people?" And the boy agreed. They rose from beneath the table, and the boy was cured.
I know this rabbi. I am this rabbi. I have sat under the table with so many people who have forgotten who they are. They sit crumpled, bent over, under the table, under all the expectations and demands of life, naked and unprotected from the tragedies that come with adulthood, and starving from the spiritual chickenfeed fed them by contemporary culture.
A woman comes to me and shares that she's just exhausted – dried up by the endless demands of being wife, mother, daughter, and professional. She can't figure out what she wants, what might make her happy. She's worn down by the endless car pools to school, soccer games, gymnastics practice, dance rehearsals, orthodontist appointments and Bar Mitzvah lessons. Somewhere amid all that, she is still being trying to be a human being with a soul.
A man comes when a crisis arrives. His dad dies. His best friend has a heart attack. His job gets downsized. His kid is in trouble. He can't disconnect or unplug. Everyone wants a piece of him until there are no pieces left for himself. He can't handle it. This isn't the life he was prepared for. He feels like he's a stranger to himself.
Recognize yourself yet?
These men and women aren't failures by any means. They have achieved all the aspirations of their youth. From the outside, you'd call them very successful. They enjoy all the material rewards our culture metes out to clever, industrious, shrewd, effective people. The homes, the vacations, the cars, the clothes. They have it all. But they sit with the rabbi and confess that something is missing, something is lacking. They were so busy winning, they didn't notice what they lost. Now, there is an emptiness within, an emptiness that no new acquisition, no vacation adventure, no make-over can satisfy.
Couple all of this angst with the struggles in our world today. Hatred and violence fill the news. Climate change, war, the future for our children and grandchildren, the issues grow each year. How are we supposed to handle all this in our lives?
And so like the boy in our story, we climb under the table, strip off the world and pine for a simpler life. And we believe that rolling back the clock or hiding in the confines of our home with lead us to a better place.
What am I supposed to say as a rabbi to the question of what's next or why are we here? How do we get out from under the table … from our safe hiding places?
There is no one here tonight that has not had a dark day, who has been faced with illness in the family or a challenge brought on by family, job or other challenges.
A personal moment. As you may know, Dora and I became grandparents this past year. When our kids told us that they were expecting, it was a joy filled moment filled with celebration. Plans were discussed and we looked forward to a mid-summer due date preceded by baby showers and nursery building and lots of shopping if you know Dora. But as I have said often, while man plans … God laughs and when our daughter in law went into early labor due to medical complications, a phone call from our son quickly changed from slowing things down to the baby is coming today. Today … wait that means the baby is only 24 weeks old. Can that happen? Your world suddenly shifts from joy to panic to doubt and then prayer … as Dora and I sat helpless in Bellevue, our kids were facing real life issues thousands of miles away. Hazel Leigh was born 1lb 1oz. So small that the normal preemie equipment was too big for her. A diaper the size of a mailing label, skin so sensitive she could not be touched, breathing on her own but clinging to life. Now nearly a full 6 months later, Hazel is thriving and growing and smiling and playing and her parents are settling into parenthood. And Dora and I are grateful every day when we see her smiles and hear her laughter. Nights once dark and fearful, become days filled with light and love. Hazel is the model of resilience … as are her parents.
I am convinced that this is re·sil·ience.
Thirty years of life as a rabbi have taught me that there is no shortage of adversity in life. Whether it's a minor setback or a major trauma, we all endure hardships across our lives. The differences among us lie not only in the shape hardship takes for us but also in how we respond when it knocks at our door. Do you find yourself weighed down by the challenges life throws at you? Or do you courageously embrace the struggle?
Resilience is the ability to cope with adversity and to use challenges to forge strength and prosperity. Having resilience does not mean that you don't struggle, make mistakes, or need to ask for help. Quite to the contrary, resilient individuals are those who keep plugging along even when the situation becomes ugly or exhausting, who learn from their own mishaps and misfortunes, and who rely on others with confidence and trust.
Adversity does create a wake in its path and its tragic side should not be downplayed. But even when tragedy strikes, growth is possible. Post-traumatic growth—which can often occur alongside post-traumatic stress—is the set of positive changes that result from a traumatic experience and can include a deeper appreciation for life, a bolstered sense of one's own capabilities, and stronger connections to others. We have seen that in the wake of the Hurricanes and earthquakes that have struck our planet.
Resilient people find a way to reframe situations in a more positive light while still accepting the reality. Imagine a news broadcast interviewing victims of a natural disaster. Some sadly remark: "We'll never get our lives back." Others retort: "This was the worst thing that's ever happened to me, but it's only a bump in the road. This community has come together and shown its strength in so many unbelievable ways."
We have the power to decide how we're going to interpret the adversities we face. As we persevere through life, we develop a more grateful approach to living. The hardship that scars us is often the same stuff of life that manufactures hard-earned wisdom.
Are you the Optimist? Optimists are among the most resilient of us, and they succeed by virtue of focusing their attention on how they can make their situations better. Or are you the pessimist? When faced with a challenge, pessimistic thinkers are more likely to be blind to opportunities to enact positive changes.
My hero … my wife. When a simple elective blood test turned into a life altering cancer diagnosis, Dora could have withdrawn and crumbled. But she didn't. She is fierce. She is driven and she chose to grab life by the horns and lead it. She has run marathons, climbed mountains, endured radiation and chemotherapy, she has had good days and bad and now represents Ford Motor Company in their More Good Days campaign. She found her voice through her struggle against cancer and she has become an inspiration to those who know her.
She is not alone. Through illnesses, job loss, family struggles many have followed in her same path. For me though, she is the best example I can come up with about resilience. For Dora, resilience is being in charge. She took control of her life, her health and her future. She is a blessing.
When you catch yourself feeling stuck or bogged down in adversity, find one thing you have control over and take action on it.
While personal strength matters a lot, it is ultimately the sense of community and relationship to others that enables true resilience. Knowing that there's someone else out there who cares is invaluable when we're down for the count. Tending to your most important relationships when times are good builds the trust and intimacy that will help those relationships stay strong when adversity hits.
We have many communities in our lives that aid in our resilience. We have a community filled with family. Creating a supportive, nurturing, embracing family community is essential to building a community of resilience.
But I know that for some, family can't meet all our needs. We need a second family, our faith community to stand tall for each other. Our faith community, Temple B'nai Torah, is that inclusive, welcoming, supportive and nurturing community that strives to be the foundation of resilience for our membership. For sure, we are not perfect, and sometimes we need help to rise, but our hope and prayer is that we can create a web of support to cradle those at times of greatest need. And we know, there are many in our community with profound needs where we can provide the power of resilience.
On Rosh Hashanah I called on each of you to lift someone else up. Together we can lift our community up.
I want to conclude with a word that I learned a couple of weeks ago. It is kintsugi. Not a Hebrew term but Japanese. Kintsugi is the art of embracing the flawed or imperfect. Kintsugi is related to the Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi, which calls for seeing beauty in the flawed or imperfect. The repair method was also born from the Japanese feeling of mottainai, which expresses regret when something is wasted, as well as mushin, the acceptance of change. In Japanese art, pottery or paintings are often made imperfect so as to highlight the repair or renewal of a piece. In Japanese culture, keeping an object around even after it has broken and highlighting the cracks and repairs is highly prized and often adds to the value and beauty of an object.
Not only is there no attempt to hide the damage, but the repair is literally illuminated…using a gold paint or glue over the cracks.
The vicissitudes of existence over time, to which all of us are susceptible, could not be clearer than in the breaks, the knocks, and the shattering to which ceramic ware too is subject. This poignancy is known in Japan as compassionate sensitivity, or perhaps identification with, the brokenness in which we live.
Tonight we sit, surrounded by hundreds of people, each of us with our own brokenness hidden from our neighbors. The year that has passed has left its scars and scabs, its joys and blessings. Imagine if we could highlight both and be honest and open and bring our battles to the surface. Isn't that what this day is about? Depleting ourselves and our resistance so that our resilience can come to the surface. Imagine our community, which cherishes honesty and openness and the embrace of the neighbor who honors us with an open heart and hand.
We have the power to be resilient. Through family, community and faith, we can rise. We can rise together because we are stronger together. Because we care together.
May this day become a day of awareness.
And may we bring our compassion and faith to bear on those around us.
An easy fast to all.

Another way to get involved is to hold a needs drive/collection. To view current needs list, click here. For more information, please call 804-783-2505, ext. 241 to learn about specific items needed at the time of your scheduled drive.
Please note that our volunteer positions do not include shadowing a healthcare provider.
As a Community Healthcare Center, we are unable to utilize healthcare providers as volunteers.
**Effective January 1, 2012, all new volunteers will have to go through a criminal background check before starting.**
Our Breaking Bread program involves groups of 4 to 12 people to provide meals for the residents living at our Medical Respite and Safe Haven programs. Groups (churches, book clubs, businesses, schools, and families) purchase food, prepare meals and then bring it to the facility to serve to the residents staying in one of these programs.
The average meal costs between $100 and $125 depending on what you choose to serve. Menu examples include baked chicken, meatloaf, tacos or BBQ; a side dish (vegetable); bread; and a small dessert. It is our hope you will bring enough food for your group to eat with the residents. Feel free to stay and visit for up to an hour. This volunteer program is not just about feeding the body, it's also about feeding the spirit through fellowship and conversation.
For more information or to get on the serving calendar, please first look over our calendars. Once you have an idea of when you might like to serve, please email Susan Sekerke or call 804-934-1824.
