Farmers Also Urges Residents to Vote for Proposals from Hawaii Teachers on ThankAMillionTeachers.com Web Site; Educators Could Win $2,500
HONOLULU, HI � Hawaii Mayors, representing the Counties of Hawaii, Honolulu, Kauai and Maui, recently presented signed proclamations to Farmers Insurance Hawaii recognizing the local insurer for its efforts to bring appreciation to Hawaii�s teachers through its national Thank A Million Teachers program.
�We are proud and humbled to be afforded this recognition for our Thank A Million Teachers program that we launched at the beginning of the year,� said Melanie Joseph, marketing manager for Farmers Insurance Hawaii. �Teachers in Hawaii do an amazing job of inspiring our young people and helping them grow into outstanding citizens, so it�s appropriate that we all take some time to show our appreciation to teachers for what they do.�
Each of the proclamations acknowledge the efforts of Hawaii�s teachers and the insurer�s program that invites the public to show their appreciation to America�s educators by going online to thankamillionteachers.com to post a note of gratitude to a current or former educator.
In addition to raising awareness of the work and dedication of Hawaii�s teachers, all four of the proclamations ��recognize and honor Farmers Insurance for their initiative on the Thank A Million Teachers program�� and encourages ��all citizens to visit ThankAMillionTeachers.com to thank a teacher who has made a difference in their lives.�
�Farmers Insurance Hawaii also wants to remind Hawaii residents to go to the ThankAMillionTeachers.com web site to vote for the proposals of four Hawaii teachers who are in the running to win grants worth $2,500,� said Joseph. �The dedicated web site is also the place where people can share a heartfelt �mahalo� to teachers for their dedication to the keiki and youth�s growth and development, and for making the most important difference in the lives of Hawaii�s children.�
Farmers Insurance declared 2014 as the year to Thank A Million Teachers. As part of that declaration, Farmers also dedicated one million dollars to educators across the country in the form of multiple grants.

Security Tips : Safeguard your mobile Accounts
Mobile devices, whether used for business, personal or educational purposes, have the capacity to greatly increase convenience. But to do so, they require sensitive data that can be compromised if your phone, tablet or other device lands in the wrong hands. Safeguard yours by adhering to these simple yet effective practices, each recommended by the security specialists at KeyBank:
Lock your devices :
Set your phone or tablet to automatically lock when not in use, and use a unique password to unlock it.
Minimize stored information :
Do not store login information on your business phone. Regularly delete text messages and old calendar entries, clear browser history, and delete files. Remove all information prior to disposing of, recycling or donating your device.
Do not share sensitive information via text :
Contrary to popular belief, text messages are not secure and may be intercepted. This is why KeyBank will never send your name or account number via text message.
Confirm the source of requests for your information :
When a caller or text sender asks sensitive questions or directs you to take specific action such as dialing a number or visiting a Web site, confirm their identity before proceeding. If there is any doubt, contact the organization directly using a number from an authoritative, independent source – not from the caller in question.
Follow online security precautions :
If your mobile device is Web-enabled (as most are these days), follow the same security precautions you use on your laptop computer.
Encrypt the storage card :
If you're a business owner, be sure your staff understands the importance of protecting sensitive information and update your security policies and contingency plans to address mobile access and mitigate the associated risks.
Disable Bluetooth when not in use :
Disconnecting Bluetooth, a non-secure connection, helps prevent attackers from obtaining information or sending malicious code into your device.
Record phone and tablet data :
Police need to know a device's make, model, and serial number to investigate theft. Write down your phone or tablet's basic information somewhere secure before taking it out of your home or office.
Security Tips
- Maintain secrecy of MPIN.
- Download authorized mobile banking software from www.corpbank.com
- Ensure privacy when entering MPIN.
- Lock mobile with password when not in use.
- Logout from mobile banking application after the transaction is over.
- Deregister from mobile banking service immediately, if mobile / SIM is lost.
- Do not disclose user ID, MPIN, account/customer number etc. to others.
- Do not click on links in emails/SMS to access your account.

Virender Sehwag was at his vintage best as he smashed a power-packed century to guide Kings XI Punjab to a convincing 24-run victory over Chennai Super Kings and a place in the final of the Indian Premier League on Friday night.
The swashbuckling opener flattened the Chennai attack with a 58-ball 122 that propelled his side to an imposing 226 for 6 after being put in bat on a batting paradise at the Wankhede stadium in Mumbai.
The Punjab side then survived a carnage from Suresh Raina, who responded with a majestic 25-ball 87, but Chennai could managed only 202 for 7 in their chase.
Punjab will play Kolkata Knight Riders in Sunday's final in Bangalore.
The hand-eye coordination, which has got Sehwag thousands of runs in international cricket, was at work again as he punished the hapless CSK bowlers while smashing his way to a magnificent 122, the highest individual score this season.
The former India opener is only the second batsman this season to score a century, after Mumbai Indians' Lendl Simmons who scored an unbeaten 100 against Punjab.
It was his second IPL hundred, the first having come in 2011 for Delhi Daredevils against Deccan Chargers.
Chennai skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni shuffled his bowlers around but nothing could stop Sehwag, who entertained the Wankhede crowd with eight sixes and 12 fours in his 58-ball knock.
This is not first time that Punjab tormented the Chennai bowlers like this; their previous highest score (231-4) also came against the Dhoni-led side.
Sehwag put on 110 runs for the first wicket with Manan Vohra (34) as he flattened the Super Kings bowling attack, which conceded a score in excess of 200 for the third time this season to the same opponents.
His pyrotechnics, when everyone expected Glenn Maxwell to be the bigger threat, caught the two-time former champions by surprise.
No one was spared by the bespectacled batsman, who completed his ton with a single in the 16th over off only 50 balls for the fastest hundred this IPL season.
Such was Sehwag's domination of the Super Kings bowling that smart knocks from Vohra, who hit two sixes and a four in 31 balls, and David Miller (38 off 19 balls) was left in the shade.
Super Kings bled runs as their two lead spinners Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja conceded 44 and 48 runs respectively.
Paceman Ashish Nehra was the costliest, giving away 51 runs for the wickets of Sehwag and George Bailey.
Mohit Sharma gave away 46 runs while Ishwar Pandey was the only bowler to concede under 40.
No team has ever chased a 227-run target in T20 history, but Raina came up with an extraordinary knock which stunned the Punjab side.
He raced to the second fastest fifty in the IPL off just 16 balls when he lifted Sandeep Sharma over covers for a six.
In six overs, CSK were unbelievably placed at 100 for two, with Raina batting on 87 from 25 balls, 84 of them coming in boundaries, 12 fours and six awe-inspiring sixes.
However, he was run-out off the first ball after the power-play overs. Brendon McCullum called for a run but George Bailey found Raina short of the crease with a direct hit.
One of the most regal innings in T20s met with a tragic end but it opened up the game and Chennai were back in the match after a forgettable effort with the ball.
Raina's dismissal though opened up the gates as wickets started tumbling.
Brendon McCullum (11) met with the same fate as that of Raina and Ravindra Jadeja (27) was caught brilliantly by Mitchell Johnson off Parvinder Awana.
David Hussey (1) fell in that same Awana over, leaving his skipper Dhoni with the task of scoring 84 runs from 42 balls.
He has been an incredible finisher for his side but today his unbeaten 42 was not enough.

May 22nd, 2010 by Migs
There are so many tracks that I find during the month to play, but so many of them don't make it into my Lookback mixes. Only my absolute favourites go into those mixes. I've also started finding a lot more awesome tunes that I want to share with you all.

I'll make these as often as I can, and some of the tracks will be in Lookback too (but you won't hear the real gold until the end of the month ;)) This is pure content.

Am I dumb?
My ex and I are still friends and have been really since the breakup. We have had our ups and downs but have stayed friends through it all. Lately he has been telling me that he does not want me to stop talking to him, but that if he does not respond that I should stop talking to him until he has a chance to say something, and that he does not trust me as much as he used to because I'm too emotional when we have a conversation and he is h*** bent on thinking that there will always be an issue and that I talk about him all the time. He says he wants me to believe that i deserve his friendship and to stop worrying, yet if he does not "trust" me what is there really for me to do? Should I cut my loses and say enough of the tears for making me feel like s*** for having a problem or is it worth it for me to keep trying.

I will make it easy for you ... cut your loss that simple just do it if there is no trust in a friendship then what do you have 0 there is no reason to even chat with your ex and when he gets a g/f she will stop that so you miles well do it now on your terms not by him or his new g/f .
You're not dumb at all. If he or the situation is making you cry, then completely move on from this friendship. It's not benefiting you. No friend should ever make you feel like s***. They should support you and be there even when you're emotional. Friendships should definitely have boundaries (keep things even..), but his boundaries are hurtful. Like really..what's the point of being friends? He's obviously not mature enough to handle being friends with an ex. Just move on..Bear in mind, it may be a little difficult because it may feel like "breaking up" all over again. You should try with someone who appreciates your efforts.

Many studies done have shown increased risk taking behavior in individuals after low frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation, which transiently suppresses the cortical excitability over the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC). It appeared likely that Increasing the right DLPFC while simultaneously decreasing the left would have the opposite effect and actually decrease the risk taking behavior in the particular individuals. Thirty six healthy volunteers performed the risk task while they were given either anodal over the right/cathodal on the left, anodal on the left/cathodal on right or sham stimulation.
All of the volunteers did not experience any adverse effects during or after the tDCS. The volunteers reported a slight itching sensation under the electrodes for the first 30 seconds of stimulation even the volunteers on the sham stimulation reported the same effects.
Results revealed a main effect of group ( p 0.0001): participants with right anodal/left cathodal stimulation chose more often low-risk prospects compared with participants with sham stimulation [odds ratio (OR), 2.5; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.8 –3.3] and those with left anodal/right cathodal (OR, 2.8; 95% CI, 2.1–3.8). Moreover, there was no difference between groups receiving left anodal/right cathodal and sham stimulation (OR, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.7–1.1) (Fig. 2). Also, there was no significant difference between women and men in their choices (unpaired t test, p 0.46). We then tested whether the balance of reward influenced the choice of the low-risk prospect, as reported previously (Rogers et al., 1999; Knoch et al., 2006a). Results revealed a significant main effect of balance of reward ( p0.0019): participants tended to choose less often the low-risk prospect, compared with the risky one, when its associated rewardwas diminished. We theninvestigatedwhether the difference in regard to the balance of reward was similar across groups andfound a significant interaction between groupbalance of reward ( p 0.0001). Participants with right anodal/left cathodal choose more often the safe prospect, regardless of its associated reward, compared with participants with sham stimulation [reward 90:10, p 0.01; reward 80:20, p 0.01; reward 70:30, p 0.001; reward 60:40, p 0.01; significance threshold for the Bonferroni correction (corrected p value) was 0.0125]. Participants with right anodal/left cathodal appeared to be so conservative in their choice that that they were not even influenced by the reward. Finally, there was a significant interaction effect of group level of risk balance of reward ( p 0.0001), suggesting that tDCS was also an effect modifier for the level of risk (4:2, 5:1). In regard to the total points earned, participants receiving right anodal/left cathodal earned significantly more points compared with those receiving left anodal/right cathodal [p 0.0468; significance threshold for the Bonferroni correction (corrected p value) was 0.025], but not compared with sham stimulation ( p 0.1121). There was no difference between the total points earned between participants with left anodal/right cathodal compared with sham stimulation ( p 0.4257) (Fig. 3). We also tested whether the decision times were longer when participants were confronted to a 4:2 versus a 5:1 scenario, as found by Rogers et al. (1999) and Knoch et al. (2006a). There was a main effect of level of risk (F 11.87; p 0.001). Participants decided slower when confronted with the safer scenario (4:2 choice) compared with the higher-risk scenario (5:1 choice). There was no interaction group level of risk ( p 0.18). However, there was a significant difference across the groups. Compared with sham stimulation, participants with right anodal/left cathodal stimulation were significantly faster ( p 0.0001) and those with left anodal/right cathodal stimulation were significantly slower ( p 0.0029). Furthermore, there was a significant interaction across group balance of reward [p 0.0001; significance threshold for the Bonferroni correction (corrected p value) was 0.0125], suggesting that differences in decision time between groups varied according to the reward. We also found a significant interaction between group level of risk balance of reward ( p 0.0001). Finally, there was no significant gender difference in terms of decision time (ANOVA, p 0.689).

The tea leaves for this Thyolo Moto Black Tea are handpicked and allowed to fully oxidize. Afterwards, the finished tea is smoked over guava wood to impart an intense, smoky flavor. This style was inspired by the Lapsang Souchong (Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong) style of tea from China, a black tea smoked with pine wood after processing.
Satemwa's skilled tea pickers allow the estate to craft truly quality teas, as good quality leaf material is key. This tea is crafted using bushes of the Thyolo cultivar, named after the local city and district of Thyolo. This cultivar tends to yield smooth, sweet teas with a soft creaminess.
This tea has both smoky impact but a sweet note on the finish.
Grown: Thyolo, Malawi, Africa
Organic: No – Conventional Herbicides, No Pesticides Used
Dry Aroma: Smokey, Salty, and Meaty (it's in the "Bacon Tea" category) Notes
Tasting Notes: Smokey, Salty, Malty Sweetness with a Dry Mouthfeel
Brewing Suggestion: We like this tea best in a teapot when we used 1-2 tablespoons (3-4 grams) of tea first brewed for 3-4 minutes. For gaiwan brewing, we recommend no more than 60-90 seconds for your first brew.
Experiment and let us know how you liked it best!

If you're taking a road trip soon; then you may be a little worried about keeping your kids entertained. Look no further; I have a great list of activities and car games to keep your kids entertained!
First of all; check out your local Dollar Tree for new toys and crafts they can do. Then each hour; pull out a new item for them to play with.
Dollar Tree has some awesome cookie sheets that work very well with magnets. We were able to pick up some magnetic dolls that had clothes you could put on; fun for at least an hour and was only $2.00 total! And they still use the dolls on our fridge years later. Here are a few other ideas with magnets.
First of all; are you organized? Having and organizer to put easy to reach items can help for a smooth trip.
Will it be a long trip, or during nap time? A travel pillow can help keep your kids comfortable!
Are your kids old enough for a camera? We're taking an epic road-trip from Florida to Alaska (around 4,700 miles!) and I'm buying both my kids a camera and giving them a mission to take lots of photos so they can make a photo-book once we get settled in Alaska. It will keep them excited and hopefully make the road-trip a little more exciting for them.
Games On The Go takes the stress away from having to be creative.
We have this magnetic Hangman, and my kids love to play it!
Loaded Questions looks like a fun game for the whole family; I have it in my Amazon cart right now!
Surprise Ink is a fun marker that only shows color once they draw on the included paper. Comes in several designs and great for toddlers and preschoolers!
Wikki Stix have given me plenty of quiet time as my kids make new shapes.
Spirographs are a quiet and fun way to spend your time. I read that Post-it Notes are a perfect refill size!
If you can handle some music; this mini-Simon game is great! Bop-It is a competition in my home; I'm the reigning champion!
Test their memory!
If you have a crafty child; making bracelets can be a great way to spend a couple hours.
And if electronics will keep them busy, then set them up with the Fire Kids Edition Tablet. It even comes with a year of free apps!
Or bring their favorite DVDs and use a DVD player.

Good day! March madness is already underway, despite it being Non-Nonfarm Friday (no jobs data 'til next week). A fearful start to the month adds a cherry to the top of crude's bearish week, as mixed economic data sends prices spiraling lower. Meanwhile, natural gas is sticking to the mid-three dollar mark like glue, as the prospect of the end of winter mitigates the impact of it still feeling like it. Pinch, punch, first snacks of the month:
—Solar may eclipse oil in fifty years.
–But actually, natural gas should become the world's energy backbone (says the same report).
–8 things you (maybe) didn't know about girl scout cookies.
—Better out than in. (LNG exports that is).
–US crude export ban is no match for lightest US shale oil.
–Man stopped at Gatwick airport with 207lbs of caterpillers.
–China's natural gas drive to take foot off the pedal of crude demand.
–The East Africa energy revolution…while North Africa's prospects as energy Goliath are fading.
–5-year old racks up $2.5k debt on ipad in 10 minutes.
–Underground nuclear tanks leaking in Washington State.
—25 bizarre laws that don't make any sense.
The Burrito Deluxe Award of the Week goes to the pursuit of energy independence, as Texas oil output has doubled in the last three years, reversing a 23 year decline.
The Burnt Burrito Award of the Week goes to the one cent coin. It costs more than one cent to make a one cent coin, and the US government spent $116 million doing that last year. Be done with it!
Have a mad weekend!

6WIND Turbo IPsec Software Wins VNF of the Year at Network Virtualization and SDN World Madrid
Selected by Tier 1 Network Operators for Security and VPN Solutions on COTS Servers at a Fraction of the Price of Incumbent Hardware
Santa Clara, CA, June 8, 2016 – 6WIND, a high-performance networking software company, today announced 6WIND Turbo IPsec™, a scalable software appliance for security and VPN solutions, won Virtual Network Function (VNF) of the Year at Network Virtualization & SDN World in Madrid, Spain last week. 6WIND Turbo IPsec is the industry's first and only high performance, hardware-agnostic IPsec software that is ready-to-use for secure connectivity solutions. It combines security, routing and firewall features to be deployed in bare metal and virtual machine configurations on Commercial-off-the-Shelf (COTS) servers.
IPsec is a necessary security technology for Telco, Cloud and Enterprise Network Operators as it is used to create secure tunnels between trusted endpoints for services. Tier-1 US and European Telco Operators deployed 6WIND Turbo IPsec to secure LTE networks and high speed communication between data centers, in addition to wireline security and IPsec aggregation. Performance scales linearly with the number of cores applied to the software starting at 5 Gbps per core on x86 servers, with recent benchmarks demonstrating 150 Gbps in bare metal and virtual machine deployments.
6WIND's Turbo IPsec software displaced incumbent purpose-built IPsec Gateway solutions as it is less than 1/2 the price versus specialized hardware, scales linearly per core on demand and can virtualize VPN solutions in Network Function Virtualization (NFV) configurations. With a virtual machine configuration, customers gain increased flexibility versus hardware appliances and reduce CAPEX by combining 6WIND Turbo IPsec with additional services, such as load balancers, next-gen firewalls, and more on the same COTS server, increasing productivity and generating new revenue streams.
"Our Turbo IPsec software on COTS servers is gaining traction as an alternative to expensive hardware and we are proud for this recognition as VNF of the Year," said Eric Carmès, CEO and Founder of 6WIND. "6WIND Turbo IPsec right sizes performance at an attractive price versus specialized hardware, making network security affordable and scalable for all size networks."

Nose surgery is also referred as rhinoplasty. This type of surgery allows the surgeon to adjust the size, shape and the position of your nose. Your nose determines your appearance because it is the most prominent feature of your face. Your appearance will be affected by your nose that is if it is too small, it has unnatural curves or it is too big. Anyone having this problem should not worry because this problem can be adjusted through the rhinoplasty surgery where the size and shape of your nose can be adjusted by the surgeon.
It is the desire of everyone who lives in Orange County to have the best look despite their age or gender. Your nose occupies the most prominent position in your face and if you have unattractive nose it will affect the lovely look of your eyes or even your beautiful smile. In Orange County you will find so many residents who have hated their noses since their childhood. Some of the see their noses as too big, too small, pointy and even crooked, They will always feel that their noses are out of proportion when they are compared to other parts of the face. Some patients would have un-proportional noses as a result of injuries from sports, accidents and even falls.
The best procedure that can correct this is rhinoplasty. An experienced facial plastic surgeon can adjust the size, shape, and position of your nose. The rhinoplasty surgeon will take their time and so that they can know their patient better. They will take their time and have a discussion with you so that they can learn about your main goal of the rhinoplasty. After the doctor has studied your main goal of the nose surgery, they will perform an internal and external nose structure examination. The surgeon will also look at the structure of your face as well as the quality of your skin. The surgeon does all this so that they can be able to create you a natural look that will improve your appearance and your breathing system.
If You Think You Get Health, Then This Might Change Your Mind
Most of the people who have issues with their noses in Orange County are non-smokers. The doctor in charge of the surgery will make specific recommendations about how the patient should prepare for the surgery. Before the surgery, the patient will be guided on what to stop using, the length of the surgery and the surgical plan. In Orange County you will find two types of rhinoplasty surgery procedures. One is known as the open rhinoplasty which is the most preferred process. Closed rhinoplasty is the second procedure. In this surgery the doctor will initiate the process under the patient's nose. Just like a sports car, your nose should be good looking and well functioning.Learning The "Secrets" of Health

Donald Brammer, 77, accused of molesting, drugging girl
Donald Brammer, 77, accused of molesting, drugging girl
Donald Brammer, 77, accused of molesting, drugging girl
A court complaint alleges a Council Bluffs man would take off a girl's clothes and lock her in a room.
Other times he would give the child drinks that "tasted funny" and caused her to fall asleep.
Prosecutors in Pottawattamie County, Iowa have charged Donald Brammer, 77, with nine counts of second-degree sex abuse, one count of false imprisonment and one count of stalking.
He pleaded not guilty to the stalking charge in June.
According to court records, Brammer first met the girl, who is now age 14, through the Boys and Girls Clubs of the Midlands in Council Bluffs. Connections Area Agency on Aging connected Brammer to the organization in 2012 through their "foster grandparent" program.
"He was an exemplary volunteer and beloved by the volunteer station, so I was surprised and devastated," Connections CEO Kelly Butts-Elston said.
Wednesday, The Boys and Girls Clubs of the Midlands issued a statement saying it had not yet been contacted by law enforcement, but that it was ready to cooperate and "100% committed to the safety and welfare of our boys and girls and to the trust of our parents, staff and supporters."
Brammer was terminated from the volunteer program in April of 2015.
Butts-Elston said that's when Brammer admitted he was providing transportation to his mentee, which violates program rules.
"All of our volunteers have to volunteer at the site under the supervision of the volunteer station," Butts-Elston said, "the volunteers are never alone with any of the children that they work with."
The 77-year-old was arrested Friday in Glenwood after the alleged victim told authorities in early July that she had been sexually assaulted.
In her complaint, the girl described Brammer as her "adoptive grandfather", and described how he would lock her in his bathroom and allegedly sexually assault her there, in his bedroom, and in a spare room "that he made 'her room'".
According to a probable cause affidavit, in April 2015, the girl told Project Harmony investigators Brammer was "always buying her things", and said she was not sexually assaulted. She also said she "did not want to get Brammer into any trouble."
Then in January, 2016, the girl told a coach she may have been sexually assaulted. She then told investigators Brammer gave her drinks at his apartment that would "taste funny".
"She stated that she would feel sick shortly after having the drinks, would get dizzy, heave a headache, and would eventually fall asleep," the affidavit said.
The girl's parents say they told Brammer to stay away from the family , but he would continue to stop by the house to "drop things off", or sit in his truck in the girl's school parking lot, or show up at her soccer and volleyball games.
The girl's sisters recounted another incident where Brammer allegedly showed up unannounced at the family's open front door. When the girl's father closed the door, Brammer walked around to the backyard.
Brammer is in custody at the Pottawattamie County jail. The Pottawattamie County Attorney's office declined to comment on the investigation. The girl's family has asked for privacy, and Brammer's attorney has not returned KETV's phone calls.
Brammer is due back in court to face the second degree sex abuse charges next week.

Sunday, July 5, 2015 -Saturdays high was a hot, hot 89 and sunny. Sundays high will be in the mid 60s and cloudy. Wyoming weather is great!!! Here's this week's forecast! Got a notice on my phone that a cold front came down from Canada! After a lifetime of hearing about those cold fronts and them never making it quite to Louisiana, I'm loving this!
After the town BBQ and rodeo yesterday we headed back home. One of the residents at our RV park told us about a Dam and Lake about 12 miles away that was worth checking out. So we did. The round trip felt more like a 40 mile journey but we don't know for sure!
We started our exploration on a nice wide dirt road and we stopped when the road became narrow and rocky. The sights we saw along the way were beautiful. The road winded its way up and around mountains so that we were eventually looking down at the towns below. We stopped at the Dam and enjoyed its beauty. We also stopped at a beautiful lake and enjoyed walking on the sand and exploring. We saw a few spots where RVs were gathered dry camping (what we call boondocking.) Hopefully that will be us in a couple of weeks when we try out boondocking in Yellowstone National Park. A beautiful river flowed through the mountain and the RVers were enjoying playing in the river.
On our way down the mountain we passed a spot Roy wanted to take advantage of getting a photo at. My dear hubby climbed this very large rock filled hill to the top and posed for several shots. Today, Sunday he's paying for all that exercise, but he enjoyed it while he did it! Pictures of his hilltop experience are below!
This is a panoramic view of the hill he's was on. Roy's the tiny speck at the top which you probably cant' tell is a person but I thought the big picture would show you how high he climbed! Clicking on the picture will show the full sized picture.
There are very few trees on the mountain but there was one where he climbed up. There were beautiful multicolored wildflowers all over the mountain. This world God created is very beautiful in Wyoming and we feel very blessed to get to experience seeing and playing in it.
The pictures below are in the order in which we saw each amazing sight! The first picture is of our RV park from a lower part of the mountain. Come on with us and enjoy our adventure!
Here's Dora! ↓
Panoramic look down the road. Click on the picture to see it full size!
Boondockers in the picture below by the river!
You never know when you begin an adventure just what you'll see. We saw a lot of beauty, even when we got back home to Dora. Here's a couple of pictures from both directions in front of our RV at Wind River View Campground. I couldn't decide which of the three pictures of the house I liked so I'm sharing all of them. We are absolutely in the west and I think we've fallen into the set of Little House on the Prairie!
Ya'll come back now, ya' hear!

I could spend all of my time responding to the transphobic nonsense that's put forth as a valid form of feminism. But it would quickly get repetitive even as I took on a new thing from a transphobic feminist every day. Because there's nothing new. So, guess what, transphobic feminists? It's time to justify yourselves. Not just smack on trans women with lies and half-truths and evasions as you assume the support of cis feminists but have to build your case from the ground up. However, you're not getting to do it here.
polerin has provided a blog post for you transphobic feminists to justify yourselves.
Have at it. The shoe's finally on the other foot. As it always should have been.
It's your fault if your son becomes a womaniser!

GLASS, DOMINION ROBERT (1895–1968). Dominion Robert Glass, eighth president of Texas College, was born in Georgia on April 19, 1895. Glass graduated from Atlanta University in 1917 with an A.B. degree. He attended graduate school at Harvard University and earned an L.L. D. degree from Miles College in Birmingham, Alabama, in 1946.
Until Glass gained his position at Texas College, his career was filled with brief stints at a variety of different educational institutions. He began as principal at Jackson High School in Georgia in 1917. That same year, he began teaching sociology and economics at Paine College in Augusta, Georgia. He worked there from 1917 to 1918. He became dean of Paine College in 1918, and in 1919 he became president of Arkansas-Haygood College in Pine Bluff, Arkansas. After working in Arkansas, Glass came to Texas to become registrar of Prairie View State Normal and Industrial College (now Prairie View A&M University). He worked at Prairie View from 1928 to 1931.
Glass found his professional niche in 1931when he became president of Texas College, a Tyler school affiliated with the Christian Methodist Episcopal Church. He remained at Texas College for thirty years and was responsible for many accomplishments and advancements that the school made. Under his direction, Texas College became accredited by the Texas Education Agency as a Standard Senior College and was given an "A" rating by the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. The college also gained membership in the Association of American Colleges, the Association of Church-Related Colleges, the American Council on Education, the National Association of Collegiate Deans and Registrars, the United Negro College Fund, Inc., the National Institute of Science, and the Association of Texas Colleges. During Glass's tenure, the school's enrollment grew from 233 students to 2,274 and settled its outstanding debts that were present before his arrival. The number of faculty members increased from ten members to 100. Thirty-five new buildings were built; the school's income tripled, and a special program was implemented for veterans.
On August 27, 1936, Glass married Willie Lee Campbell, an accomplished educator in her own right, who began teaching etiquette and table manners to students within the couple's home. Mrs. Glass became head of the homemaking department at Texas College as well as a "homemaking education consultant for the Texas Education Agency."
In 1961 Dominion Glass retired from Texas College. He died seven years later on October 8, 1968. He is buried in Evergreen Memorial Park Cemetery in Tyler. The library at Texas College was named after him.

When my children were younger I tried an experiment. It only lasted one day, but it was marvelous.
When my children were younger I tried an experiment. It only lasted one day, but it was marvelous.
We agreed to agree for one whole day. That meant, whatever I asked of them (within reason, of course) was met with the response, "OK, mom!" and whatever they asked of me was met with, "Sure, honey." Wow, it was such a relaxed day that I still remember it well.
Of course, such days are only experimental, but it felt so good just to be listened to that I did my best to re-create this home environment as much as possible.
Having taught parenting classes for so many years now, I know that the single thing that most parents struggle with is getting their kids to really listen and follow directions. My children also remind me that kids struggle with the same issues. That is where discipline comes in. Coming from the word "disciple," a true disciplinarian is someone who:
-- leads by example,
-- is charismatic (people want to be around them)
-- gives clear "instructions"
-- follows through on what they say
These ingredients for effective discipline sound remarkably simple, and they really are. Mostly it is about learning a few basic principles and then devoting time to practice in real life.
In the next few weeks, this space will focus on seven simple principles for discipline; next week we'll look at the positive approach.

The wild symbol replaces all other symbols except the scatter symbol and the special bonus symbol for wins.
There are different ways of picking up cool and big wins when playing She's a Rich Girl. The Rich Girl wild symbol in a winning combination in the base game adds a 2x multiplier to the win. Landing scatter symbols across the reels in the base game also awards wins with multipliers: 3 scatter symbols give a 2x multiplier, 4 scatter symbols give a 10x multiplier, and 5 scatter symbols give a 25x multiplier.
The main bonus round in She's a Rich Girl is the free spins bonus. It is triggered by landing 3 Diamond Run special symbols anywhere on reels 2, 3 and 4. You get 3 free spins, during which all the symbols in the base game are replaced by gems and precious stones. There is also a diamond that acts as a wild during the bonus round. One or more diamond symbols in the free spins round triggers additional free spins, up to a maximum of 100 free spins.

AMD's New FM2+ CPUs Will Be Compatible Only with FM2+ Motherboards
AMD's New FM2+ CPUs Will Be Compatible Only with FM2+ Motherboards
Motherboard makers have confirmed that AMD's new FM2+ socket CPU /APUs, to be used with the new Steamroller core Kaveri APUs will only be compatible with new FM2+ socket motherboards. This means that existing FM2 motherboard owners will need to upgrade their motherboards to use the new Kaveri APUs.
On the flip side, the new FM2+ motherboards will be backwards compatible with the older FM2 Richland and Kabini APUs. Motherboard makers such as Biostar have already begun sending out advisory notes on the issue of CPU and motherboard compatibility, so it seems like it won't be long before Kaveri arrives, despite widespread rumors that it is being delayed until mid or late 2014. We will have to wait and see.
Kaveri is important for AMD because it will be their first APU to fully support its Heterogeneous Unified Memory Architecture, where both CPU and GPU will share a common memory space.

Frameworks 5 Tech Preview is here!
Frameworks 5 Tech Preview has arrived.
KDE Frameworks it a port of kdelibs to Qt 5 and turned into modules so you can install only the bits you need. People are often reluctant to add kdelibs to their applications because it brings in too many dependencies. With KDE Frameworks it has been modularised so much is simply extra Qt libraries. This will bring KDE software to a much wider audience. Many parts of kdelibs have just been moved into Qt itself thanks to the open qt-project.
Binary packages are available in Kubuntu as part of Neon 5 and I'm starting to package them in our experimental PPA.

Last night, I was standing on the diving board during the Olympics and I was totally aware that my little Speedo was riding up and up and up on me, and I was nervous and could hear the crowd. And then suddenly I was trying to open a jar of peanut butter in front of everyone and the crowd was jeering and cat-calling because I couldn't do it, and I wanted to cry but I didn't. And then, suddenly I was flying through the air and swanning down towards the water and my Speedo was flying off and I was a beautiful naked man flying, arms outstretched, towards the water and then I woke up!
Questions: What's the significance of the peanut butter? (Check into possible peanut allergy.) Why was I embarrassed by the Speedo? I'm never embarrassed to wear those.
I walked into what looked like the Essence Music Festival into a sea of smiling and wonderful African-American faces. And I walked up to the stage and stood next to Alicia Keys, the female rapper Khia, and Harriet Tubman, and I began to tell them from my heart why they all needed to reelect me and as I wept Harriet Tubman began to massage my back and shoulders as Khia and Alicia Keys began doing a kind of highly eroticized dance. Suddenly the crowd was in chains and I leapt from the stage and began loosening the chains with the bolt cutters I suddenly had in my hands. Later, I was in a Jacuzzi with Harriet Tubman, Dionne Warwick, and the late Nell Carter, which is when I woke up.
Questions: Where did I get the bolt cutters? What do they signify? Is it possible to get into contact with Alicia Keys?
Hillary Clinton and I are at a Papa Gino's pizza in Wilmington and we can't agree on what toppings to get. She's being really condescending and infuriating and I want to throw the little jar of parmesan cheese at her, but for some reason I can't raise my arm to do it. She keeps taunting me about it and belittling me because I clearly am immobilized in some way. Suddenly, I realize that my other arm is mobile, and I use it to pick up the jar of pepper flakes and I throw it at her but she's not there anymore. It's Barack. And I hit him in the face with the jar and he looks at me but won't say anything, and then the Secret Service grabs me and tells me that I'm late for my inauguration as president. I can't find anything to wear so I decide to do the swearing-in ceremony nude, but it's cold and everyone tells me that would be a bad idea, but I just feel so naked and free, and I walk out onto the platform totally naked and the crowd roars its approval and they're cheering and cheering and I look back into the stands and my grandfather is there shaking his head. I look back at the crowd and everyone is now laughing at me and pointing at me, which is when Morgan Fairchild comes up to me and leads me slowly away. And then I wake up.
Questions: None. Self-explanatory.
I officiate at a gay wedding. Goes well. Suddenly I realize that it's my gay wedding, and I'm racing around the venue trying to find my wife to explain what's happening, but I can't find her. But the reception turns into a campaign rally, and I'm trying to get onto the stage but I realize that I'm standing thigh-deep in sand. They keep calling my name and asking for me to come onto the stage, but as hard as I try, I can't make it. Suddenly, my mother is there and she's holding two ferocious dogs on a leash and they're barking and baring their teeth at me, and she's saying, "Everyone wants a piece of you, Joe. Especially the dogs," and the dogs get closer and closer until the actress Kathy Bates appears and takes the dogs away and my mother helps me out of the sand and walks me to kindergarten which is when I wake up.
Questions: Why Kathy Bates and not Morgan Fairchild? Does "sand" mean "wisdom," as in I'm "trapped" by "wisdom"?
Suddenly, I'm covered in blood and holding a knife and standing over the dismembered corpse of Wolf Blitzer. Barack is there, shaking his head at me and saying, "Now you've done it, Joe. Now you've done it." Suddenly, I see Wolf Blitzer move a bit and I'm sure he's alive but no one will believe me. And then I'm in the electric chair and I wake up right before Morgan Fairchild throws the switch.
Questions: I've always liked Wolf Blitzer. Maybe no more spicy burritos before bed.

Week 9
September 16th, 2017
The Question of Suffering
Job 42:7-17
Job lived 140 years after that, living to see four generations of his children and grandchildren. Then he died, an old man who had lived a long, full life.
(Job 42:16-17)
Why do believers experience troubles and suffering? Through a long debate, Job's supposedly wise friends were unable to answer this question. They made a serious error in assuming that trouble comes only because people sin. People make the same mistake today when they think sickness or poverty is a sign of unconfessed sin or a lack of faith. Normally, obeying God does lead to a happier life while rebelling against God yields an unhappy life. But this is not always true. In our world invaded by sin, suffering comes to the good and the bad alike.
This doesn't mean that God is uncaring, unjust, or powerless to protect us. Bad things happen because we live in a broken world, where all people suffer from the tragic consequences of sin. Though God allows evil for a time, he has the power to turn it around for our good (Romans 8:28). And God uses suffering in our lives to teach us faith and dependence on him. His ultimate goal is not that we live an easy life but that we grow closer to him and become more like him. In the end, we may not be able to understand why God allows evil, but we can be sure that he is all-powerful and knows what he is doing.
If you're facing suffering right now, cling to God and ask him for the strength to endure it. If you're trying to make sense of suffering you've seen recently, whether it's yours or others', spend time talking about it with God and listening with an open mind for whatever insight he gives you.


text: The Palestinian ambassador to the UN has rejected a US veto in the United Nations Security Council that called for a resolution against President Donald Trump's recent recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital. The draft resolution was backed on Monday by the 14 other Security Council members, including many US allies, highlighting Washington's increasing isolation over an issue that has triggered mass rallies in support of the Palestinians in major international cities. Speaking after the vote, Riyad Mansour, the Palestinian ambassador to the UN, said: "It is paradoxical that while we were waiting for a peace plan from the US, the administration instead decided to further obstruct peace and delay its realisation. "The US decision encourages Israel to persist in its crimes against the Palestinian people and to continue its occupation of our territory. No rhetoric will hide this complacency in prolonging the occupation," he added. On Monday, the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), an umbrella of Palestinian political parties, announced it would no longer accept the US as a partner in the peace process. "We will not allow the US to be a mediator or a partner in the peace process," said Mahmoud Abbas, the president of the PA, the Ramallah-based governmental body that administers parts of the occupied West Bank. {articleGUID} Abbas also promised to seek full membership for Palestine at the UN, despite a previous push failed to do so in 2011. Currently, Palestine is a "non-member observer state", meaning that it has the right to speak but not vote on resolutions. "We will take political, diplomatic, and legal actions against Trump's declaration regarding Jerusalem," said Abbas. 'Courage and honesty' Nikki Haley, the US ambassador to the UN, said in the Security Council that "the United States had the courage and honesty to recognise a fundamental reality". "Jerusalem has been the political, cultural, and spiritual homeland of the Jewish people for thousands of years - they have had no other capital city," she continued. "The United States has the sovereignty to determine where and whether we establish an embassy," said Haley, describing the vote as an "insult" that "won't be forgotten". United States ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley spoke with Palestinian ambassador to the UN Riyad Mansour before the start of a UN Security Council meeting [Brendan McDermid/Reuters] Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released a video on his Twitter account in which he thanked Haley for the US veto. "Thank you, Ambassador Haley. On [the Jewish holiday of] Hanukkah, you spoke like a Maccabi," he said, likening her to a member of the Jewish community that is believed to have rebelled against the Romans. "You lit a candle of truth. You dispel the darkness. One defeated the many. Truth defeated lies. Thank you, President Trump. Thank you, Nikki Haley." Thank you, Ambassador Haley. On Hanukkah, you spoke like a Maccabi. You lit a candle of truth. You dispel the darkness. One defeated the many. Truth defeated lies. Thank you, President Trump. Thank you, Nikki Haley. pic.twitter.com/zFIiStoait — Benjamin Netanyahu (@netanyahu) December 18, 2017 Along with the UK, France, Russia, and China, the US is a permanent member of the UN Security Council, with the power to block any resolution from passing with the use of a veto. The Egyptian-drafted text reiterated the UN position on Jerusalem, affirming "that any decisions and actions which purport to have altered, the character, status or demographic composition of the Holy City of Jerusalem have no legal effect, are null and void and must be rescinded in compliance with relevant resolutions of the Security Council". {articleGUID} In an effort to keep Washington from exercising its veto power, the text did not mention the US by name, saying instead it "deeply regrets recent decisions regarding the status of Jerusalem". Francois Delattre, France's ambassador to the UN, said his country regretted the US decision over Jerusalem. "This draft resolution confirms an international consensus on Jerusalem that has been built over decades," said Delattre. The vote came less than two weeks after Trump's controversial speech, which reversed decades of US policy on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The US and the international community have long maintained that the solution to the Middle East conflict would be the formation of a Palestinian state - alongside the Israeli one - with East Jerusalem as its capital. Trump's declaration unleashed widespread anger and rallies within Palestine and in major cities across the world. Since the decision, at least 10 Palestinians have been killed and more than 2,800 injured in protests in the occupied territories of the West Bank, East Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip.

ISLAMABAD - Pakistan is among the six developing states where 19 million newborn are at risk because of iodine deficiency, it has been revealed at a seminar.
TheNetwork for Consumer Protection organised the advocacy seminar in collaboration with Unicef and ICT District Health Department on Wednesday. Medics, representatives from Basic Health Unit, Rural Health Centre and officials joined in.
TheNetwork for Consumer Protection Executive Coordinator Nadeem Iqbal called for stepping up efforts to correct the misconception of use of iodised salt.
"Healthcare providers are the primary source to disseminate the awareness messages. Iodisation of salt is the most inexpensive way of preventing iodine deficiency," he said.
Iqbal further advocated, "Previously, goiter was believed to be caused by iodine deficiency but now iodine deficiency is also being linked with mental impairment. To get over such serious problems, healthcare provider should raise awareness among the masses."
He also cited his network's work for the purpose, saying a number of activities in rural areas of Islamabad and sensitised people especially women and children and local population of the area.
Sharing his team's experience, he said that during an awareness session, people asked as to why docs did not advise use of iodised salt if it was vital. Thus there is a need of raising awareness by community doctors, he insisted, adding that the iodised salt usage was an easy way to get over mental disorders.
"There is a misconception that iodine affects fertility. Iodine deficiency causes complications among mums-to-be, indeed," it was highlighted during the sitting
"Mild iodine deficiency can result in a significant loss in learning ability. Other effects include increased risk of stillbirth, miscarriage, and goiter for women and learning difficulties in children."
Highlighting the importance of the issue, Dr Fawad Khalid, medical officer health department-ICT, said, "All we can do is to focus on educating consumers, so that they demand iodised salt from the retailers. The community's refusal to buy salt without iodine will give producers a commercial incentive to change."
