I, as well as many other enthusiastic fans who also run blogs, could go on for days about why Parks and Recreation is one of the best shows. I've come up with a list of a few of the most important reasons, I think, that everyone should watch it (even though it just finished its final season last night). Even if you missed it while it was running, you can still catch it online, on Netflix or in syndication. WARNING: while this post does not contain any finale spoilers, it does contain spoilers for later seasons if you are just starting the show. Nothing too huge; just things like finding out who ends up with whom.
#1. Healthy Romance
In light of the recent success of both the book and movie versions of 50 Shades of Grey, I think this reason speaks for itself. What's that? You want examples? Gosh, I guess I can give you some quality examples.
Ben and Leslie
Ben and Leslie are probably the best television couple ever. Period. Done. End of story. They support each other, they put each other first before their own personal needs, they are encouraging, honest and help each other grow. There is no manipulation. They are emotionally supportive, physically attracted and very well balanced. As far as fictional relationships go, their is the best I think I've ever seen.
Ann and Chris
Unlike Ben and Leslie, Ann and Chris have had quite a few rough patches. However, because they were able to grow as individuals (note how relevant the next reason [Character Development] is), eventually, they are able to have a very successful and supportive relationship because they understand their differences and needs and adapt as needed.
Andy and April/Ron and Diane/Tom and Lucy/Donna and Joe/Garry and Gale
While not typical, these are still very healthy, positive relationships, that we don't necessarily expect to work out or fully understand. They're all supportive, understanding and loving toward their partners. It's really refreshing to see.
#2. Character Development
Over the course of seven seasons, the characters have grown exponentially from season to season. Take Leslie for example. She grows from being this bright eyed, enthusiastic, impulsive go-getter to being a grounded political powerhouse. Each character grows in very specific ways. They all go through hard times and handle their own issues. Remember that one time Andy Dwyer, loveable puppy-like Andy Dwyer, dealt with depression? That was an incredible and encouraging statement about mental health, and about how it's important to take care of yourself and how these challenges can affect ANYONE.
#3. Unlikely Friendships
If you've met people, which I'm sure you have, you know that people tend to disagree about things – ESPECIALLY POLITICS. In Parks you have people like Leslie being friends with people like Ron. Seeing people with such different views still caring about each other and not getting weighed down by political viewpoints is so unusual. Typically, in the media, if you feel a way that's different from the main character, you're labeled a moron and nobody takes you seriously. The amount of wisdom that comes out of Ron Swanson's mouth on this show is incredible. I love that they made all of the characters be their own, rather than be copies of Leslie, or exact opposites. Lots of views are represented, and all are taken seriously.
#4. Ovaries before Brovaries
When I was younger, I somehow learned that I was in competition with other females. I don't really know where I learned that or why, but it just sort of plopped into my head and stayed there until I was in my 20s. There's no reason for women to be pitted against each other. Parks and Rec has some of the most positive portrayals of women interacting with other women on TV. Leslie and Ann, April and Leslie, Donna being Donna – all of this is awesome. Women have roles of leadership, women become government officials, Donna and Leslie preach so much body positivity, and April is never talked down to because she's younger. MAN that's refreshing. To appeal to such a wide age range, and encourage people of all ages to follow their dreams – that is phenomenal.
#5. Satire
As a political show, it's obvious a lot of the humor would come from poking fun at real political issues. I'm not going to say much about this, I'm just going to link you guys to a clip from one of the more recent episodes which laid down the law on the current issue of Men's Rights vs Women's Rights.
#6. Encouraging messages
I think I've given examples of this all the way through this post, but this show encourages people in so many ways. Leslie is a go-getter, like I said, and she follows her dreams. People are against her almost every step of the way, and she falls down a lot on her journey, but she always manages to get back up. Friendship, love, support, encouragement, being true to yourself, not giving up on people – this show really takes the cake. If you don't watch it, I don't understand you.
Watching the finale was really intense. I'm kind of heartbroken to not get to peek into the lives of April, Andy, Ron, Craig, Leslie, Ben, Donna, Garry, Tom, Chris and Ann anymore. The end of Parks and Rec also marks the end of NBC's comedies. Most of you know how I feel about NBC (it's garbage), and I'm not really sure what their plan is for programming. All I know is I used to almost exclusively watch NBC, now I primarily watch Fox. So, thanks Fox for having some great comedies. Parks and Recreation, I'll miss you in the saddest fashion. You're 5,000 candles in the wind.

First the rant:
As women…We are caught up in outward appearances that deplete our energy and literally suck away all the goodness that truly matters: Like being kind and compassionate. Having faith and hope. Teaching our daughters how to respect and accept one another.
We are so lost in our flaws that we remain clouded in judgement of ourselves and others. We stomp over God's gifts for worldly crap that, in the end, just doesn't make a difference. We ruminate on who we appear to be rather than WHOSE we are.
Now the prayer…
Jesus, please bestow on each of us the REAL that you have given us. Show us mercy that we may learn for ourselves how to love- truly love- our own unique self. While this body is only temporary, please grace us with your presence and show us how and who you want us to be. Give us the strength and fortitude to overcome, as you have, Jesus.
Help us honor your love, Jesus, and do what is best for ourselves and all involved. Provide us with the patience and joy to persevere on your path of righteousness so that we may flourish in love and delight in our joys.
Guide us to forgive in all that we have done wrong, perceived or not. Show us that your forgiveness is our greatest gift and we are all worthy. Help us guide those who need it with open hearts and peaceful minds.
Protect us in our pursuit of love and help us burn away these matters that singe us in our soul.

It has long been recognised that members are an important part of any cultural and not-for-profit organisation as they are loyal supporters of the institution, they support financially through member fees, donations and bequests. They are also key advocates, often having a long-term relationship with the institution and are passionate about it. Most institutions have long had some form of membership scheme, often spanning long time periods, for example, in the UK the first recorded friends group dates from 1909 at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge (Slater, 2004). Slater also noted the steady increase in membership organisations in the UK since the 1970s, with around 3.5 million memberships held in the UK in 2004.
Simon (2007) discussed the importance of graduating members to donor member, bequest, and influencer status, stating that "… museums can make the relationship between members and donors clearer by giving members an option to elect (partially) what their membership fee supports", therefore not only transferring the 'value' of admission from one of experience cost into an exercise in donation, but also "… generating data about new members interests, which can then be cultivated with targeted marketing of programs and giving campaigns".
During 2015 the Australian National Maritime Museum embarked on a large study of members, both current and lapsed, in order to identify any problems and issues and take remedial action were necessary. A subsequent paper (Kelly and Varga, 2016) published in the Museums Galleries Australia Magazine reported on findings from this study, as well as key points from the literature around membership programs in cultural institutions.
In order to get a snapshot of how cultural institutions and the performing arts work with members, "friends of" or subscribers to enhance and support foundation and/or philanthropic initiatives we have an online survey. Initial findings were presented at Culture Business, Canberra in 2018. As this session generated high interste we have continued to run the survey.
So, please go ahead and complete the survey here (by COB 22 February), or feel free to share this with your colleagues. All those that complete a valid survey and provide an email address will receive a copy of the Outcomes Report.

No criminal charges pending in fatal crash involving Tony Stewart
Less than 24 hours into its investigation into an accident in which Tony Stewart hit and killed racecar driver Kevin Ward Jr. as Ward approached Stewart's car on foot, the Ontario County (N.Y.) sheriff said initial findings do not show criminal intent.
The investigation, though, is continuing into the death of the 20-year-old Ward, who was declared dead on arrival at Thompson Hospital 45 minutes after the accident Saturday night in the Empire Super Sprints event at Canandaigua Motorsports Park. After a wreck with Stewart, Ward climbed out of his car, walked out onto the track and approached Stewart's car, which hit him under caution.
MORE: Stewart right to skip race | Stewart statement | Stewart's sprint-car timeline
"There are no criminal charges pending at this time," Sheriff Philip Povero said at a news conference broadcast on ESPNews. "We have reviewed the investigation to this point with the Ontario County district attorney.
"As we speak at this time, there is no evidence in hand or no facts that would support a criminal charge or support criminal intent on the part of anybody."
Povero said the investigation is ongoing and will focus on the banked dirt surface, which was slick and muddy, as well as the color of Ward's firesuit and what he called dim lighting in the area in Turns 1 and 2 of the track.
"Certainly that is a dimly lit part of the track," Povero said. "That is something that is looked at as well as clothing and other conditions that would certainly impact his ability in that area."
An autopsy will be performed, and the investigators are looking for video as well witnesses who have first-hand knowledge of the circumstances of the accident, dirt-track racing and the dynamics of the cars.
Povero said the cars were going slow enough in observing the caution and estimated that Stewart was running approximately 30 to 35 mph when he hit Ward.
He added they will use all the information to do a reconstruction of the crash.
"There are no foregone conclusions made at this point," Povero said. "We're looking for any information, any relevant evidence, that will help us come to a final determination as to why this happened."
Once the investigation is complete, the results will be given to the district attorney, which is standard procedure because of a fatal accident.
Investigators went to Watkins Glen International on Sunday to talk to Stewart, but Stewart withdrew from the Cup race and opted to have Regan Smith compete in his place.
"There aren't words to describe the sadness I feel about the accident that took the life of Kevin Ward Jr.," Stewart said in a statement. "It's a very emotional time for all involved, and it is the reason I've decided not to participate in today's race at Watkins Glen. My thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends and everyone affected by this tragedy."
A family member at Ward's house told Syracuse television station WSYR: "We appreciate the prayers and support we are receiving from the community, but we need time to grieve and wrap our heads around all of this."

The players or fans don't have a choice. Bottom line is if Haslams's ego won't allow him to swallow the embarrassment of starting over(admitting a mistake) nothing will change.ReplyDelete
- richpassanDecember 22, 2015 at 9:16 AM
It would make the third do-over for him and that's what might keep him from pulling the trigger. For all we know, too, this could turn out to be a power struggle between Farmer and Pettine. The political infighting could help Haslam to make up his mind.ReplyDelete
He has many options here. Maybe too many.
- AnonymousDecember 22, 2015 at 12:14 PM
Rich, what other options matter? Farmer is the absolute worst talent evaluator in the NFL, and Pettine coached DOWN every member of the team but Joe Thomas, who is so good he's resistant to the lousy coaching. And that's only mentioning his lack of coaching ability, not even bringing up his game management cluelessness. It truly sucks to keep having to start over, but isn't that better than sticking with guys who are so frighteningly inept at their jobs that they'll never get this team over .500?ReplyDelete
- richpassanDecember 22, 2015 at 7:48 PM
Better yes, but downright embarrassing. Three times in four years means Haslam still doesn't know how to put together a front office that is not dysfunctional. And if he listens to Alec Scheiner again, he's doomed to make the same mistakes. Stay tuned.Delete

WDLXTV-Live is an unofficial homebrew firmware for the Western Digital WD TV Live. It enables a wide range of extra functionality which is missing from the official firmware, such as bittorrent, webserver, NZB, SSH, FTP, etc. I've done my best to make everything as easily configurable as possible, but it does require a little bit of work on your own. All of the settings are located in S00custom-options, which is included in the zipfile of every release. Open it in a text editor and peruse your options. If you need help there is a forum link at the bottom of the page. If you are a power user then you'll be able to harness your Linux skills and fly off into the world of homebrew, wondering why you delayed any longer than you did.
I've finally fixed the NTFS issues that people had been having. NTFS is now confirmed working. Theres a few other good additions as well, like being able to mount a remote FTP as a local directory The ntfs-3g driver is included, by popular demand, for power users to test with NTFS drives to determine if its better at handling high speed writes than the stock driver. I won't provide any information on using it and if you want to try you are on your own. I don't recommend testing with ntfs-3g unless you know what you're doing and are prepared for possible unforeseen consequences–which there might not be any, but you are forewarned.
* ntfs-3g-2009.4.4-1 included (power users test at own risk)
* using Paragon NTFS driver, NTFS devices *should* now mount correctly (finally)
* curlftpfs-0.9.2-1 included
* openssl-0.9.8k-7 included
* fixed nzbget webui images not showing up
* Deluge state directory enabled (requires power cycle after changing torrent watch dir)
* fixed timezone setting command in S00custom-options & add export to /etc/profile

Institute for Social Capital
Welcome to the Institute for Social Capital Inc. home to the ISC Community Database, an integrated data system created to foster university research and to increase the community's capacity for data-informed decision-making. Through collaboration with nonprofit organizations governmental agencies, and other organizations in the Charlotte region, ISC serves as a resource to benefit the university and the greater community. By linking data across agencies, the ISC Community Database allows researchers and community agencies to better describe, understand, and serve members of our most vulnerable populations.
About the program
The Institute for Social Capital, Inc. was founded in 2004, and became part of the UNC Charlotte Urban Institute in March 2012. Its mission is to support university research and increase the community's capacity for data-informed decision-making.
At its core is a comprehensive set of administrative data gathered from governmental and nonprofit agencies in the region. By combining key data into one community database, ISC provides a valuable resource for understanding the outcomes for the most vulnerable members of our communities from a multi-agency context.
Through its affiliation with UNC Charlotte and the UNC Charlotte Urban Institute, ISC also offers valuable analytical support to assist organizations in their research and data analyses efforts.
One of the most significant struggles facing researchers and social service organizations is the diffusion of human and social data. Reliable data gathered from significant social service and nonprofit agencies are needed to understand the effects of relevant initiatives on planning services, program evaluations and public policy. However, such information is rarely shared across sources, limiting an organization's ability to effectively measure outcomes.
By combining key sources of data into one community database, ISC provides a valuable resource to assess the impact of specific interventions across agency lines and to better understand the social and environmental variables that affect the community, particularly with regard to outcomes for children and families.
The ISC is a 501(c)3 nonprofit dedicated to maintaining the confidentiality of these crucial data.

Do youth end up in the justice system because they disengage from school?A UNC Charlotte professor used the integrated data system at the Institute for Social Capital, a part of the Urban Institute, to examine whether students of color are more likely to enter the juvenile justice system because they're more disengaged from school. Her conclusion: "The way our kids are being processed in the system is affected by the color of their skin."
Linking data to inform policy at the Institute for Social CapitalThe Institute for Social Capital combines data from dozens of different agencies and provides a unique way for researchers to find connections and study problems, helping policymakers find solutions that work.

"When we're through with this earth and all these problems, we don't have to come back. But as long as we're here we have a job to do and a purpose to fulfill and that means dealing with the circumstances around us."
–Rolling Thunder, CHEROKEE
We are put on the earth to participate in life. We have a beautiful mind, we have the ability to pray, we have the ability to change, we have the ability to accept, and we have choices. All things God created are constantly changing. This constant change causes our circumstances to change. Sometimes we say life is difficult. During these times we need to use our tools: the tools of prayer, and the tools of meditation. We are designed to change and live joyfully on this earth. The only requirement for living joyfully is to live according to the laws, principles and values given to us by the Creator.
Great Spirit, give me Your courage today, and guide my footsteps.

Moody Monday – March 30 Devotions
Even though the last Monday in March went by quickly, it paused to evoke a bit of moodiness. Probably due to the anti-climactic effects of it being the day after my birthday, combined with the realization I'm 57 and only 3 years from 60. Wow, WHERE did the years go??
So here are the belated devotional thoughts for March 30th. And remember, you can read Psalms and Proverbs to accompany each day at my page, Daily Scripture Readings.
"One of the many sources of sorrow is loneliness. Some who suffer most from loneliness, which is a form of grief, are the shy or extremely timid; those who feel misunderstood; the divorced and unmarried; the widowed; the elderly…the list goes on and on. Loneliness can manifest as an inner ache, a vacuum, or a craving for affection. Its side effects include feelings of emptiness, uselessness, or purposelessness.
God has promised to be with you always and to never leave or forsake you. Ask Him to reveal His precious Presence to you. Also, ask Him for what I call 'divine connections' — right friends who will be real friends that God Himself has chosen for you."
–Joyce Meyer in "Ending Your Day Right"
"Many marriages could be saved from divorce or disappointment if a woman would take the initiative to begin comforting and complimenting her husband. The husband also has the same responsibility, but if he is not doing it, I encourage you to be willing to step out and be the first to make a move in the right direction for your marriage.
A spiritually mature woman will be the first to do what is right even if nobody else is doing so. A wise, understanding, and prudent wife is a gift form the Lord (see Proverbs 19:14 and Proverbs 31).
I believe if you take the first steps of obedience, then God will also deal with your husband and you will see positive changes in him. I also believe it will increase your own level of confidence. When we compliment others, we begin to see ourselves in a better light also.
Pray: Lord, help me to be the one who takes the initiative to encourage and compliment and comfort. In all my relationships, may I be the first to give, whether or not I receive the same back. Amen."
–Joyce Meyer in "The Confident Woman Devotional"
-1- I used to be a far more social, outgoing person when I worked "out there" instead of working from home. Now that I've been at this freelance life for several years, I feel as if I've become a "hermit" –and having only one car, which my husband uses for transportation to work 10-hour days, exacerbates that issue of feeling stranded and lonely.
I have to say I'm very thankful for social media, especially Facebook, because it allows me to keep in touch with family and friends, as well as participate in various interest groups–including blogging groups!
-2- This is sometimes a hard thing to do, especially if you feel like your spouse or partner doesn't make any efforts to be comforting, encouraging, and supportive. It's easy to get caught up in self-pity and whining about "why should I be the one to be nice if he/she isn't?" Yet…I have experienced the positive fruit of implementing this plan!
So what are YOUR thoughts? Do you suffer from loneliness or feel useless or without purpose?
If you have a spouse or partner, or even a close friend–do you struggle with the idea of being the one to initiate positive behaviors toward that person, especially if you are not getting the same consideration in return?

A New York police detective was arrested on Tuesday on federal perjury charges after prosecutors concluded that he had fabricated evidence in a carjacking case.
The charges against Michael Foder, 41, who had been assigned to the detective squad in the 70th precinct in central Brooklyn, are the latest sign that perjury remains an ongoing problem within the New York Police Department. Last month another detective, Kevin Desormeau, was convicted in Queens of falsely testifying about having observed a drug deal after a jury found that the detective had made up the story to cover up a dubious arrest.
In the case on Tuesday, Detective Foder is accused of doctoring a photo lineup to persuade a judge that a victim had been able to identify two suspects in a carjacking. The charges are considered particularly troubling because they involve accusations that a detective tampered with witness identifications.
Erroneous identifications by witnesses have been a leading cause of wrongful convictions.
In the past decade, the New York Police Department has taken steps to try to prevent such misconduct. Among other requirements, detectives are supposed to follow a detailed set of instructions when conducting lineups. They cannot chat with witnesses while showing them photos or lineups, but instead should hew to a script intended to prevent the detectives from improperly influencing the result.
Still, the charges against Detective Foder suggest that the safeguards may not always be enough. The suspected fabrications were not caught by Detective Foder's supervisor, or the defense lawyers who scrutinized the evidence. Instead, they were spotted by a prosecutor, J. Matthew Haggans, who was taking another look at the case file as he prepared to write a brief describing the strength of the evidence.
The case involved a 2015 carjacking in Brooklyn, in which a gunman and two accomplices forced a livery cabdriver out of an S.U.V. and stole the vehicle.
The driver, Orhan Polat, was initially able to identify a person he thought was the gunman when he was brought to a station house to look at photographs of teenagers and men who fit the description of Mr. Polat's assailants. But Mr. Polat did not recognize anyone who looked like the other two men involved in the carjacking. In the weeks that followed, the police focused on two additional suspects based on an anonymous tip and fingerprint analysis.
In a 2016 court hearing in Federal District Court in Brooklyn, Detective Foder testified about what happened next. He prepared two photo lineups — one for each suspect. Each one consisted of the suspect's mug shot printed on a sheet of paper, alongside mug shots of five "fillers" — people of vaguely similar appearance with no connection to the crime. The hope was that Mr. Polat might recognize the suspect's photo and pick him out.
That is exactly what happened, Detective Foder testified, explaining that Mr. Polat had gone to the station house on two different days to view the two photo lineups.
Detective Foder had documented these meetings, including the date each photo lineup was administered. On each photo lineup, a signature appears beneath the suspect's mug shot marking it as the photo the victim selected.
The suspects were charged in the carjacking. The photo lineups were the main evidence against them.
But those lineups turned out to be fabrications, investigators said. This discovery was made when Mr. Haggans, the prosecutor, realized that many of the mug shots used in the lineups were not available to Detective Foder at the time he claimed to have put the lineups together. The reason? They had yet to be taken.
The paperwork included the date of each mug shot, and most of the "filler" photos were taken after the dates the victim had supposedly viewed the photo array.
The photo array that Detective Foder claimed to have shown to the victim in November had photographs with December dates. Most of the photos from the February lineup had March dates.
An indictment unsealed on Tuesday charges Detective Foder with perjury and obstruction of an official proceeding.
"Our justice system relies upon the absolute integrity of our law enforcement officers and, while the vast majority of officers uphold that standard, we will not hesitate to act when one does not," Richard P. Donoghue, the United States attorney in Brooklyn, said in a statement.
The indictment accuses Detective Foder of having "falsified documentation relating to the purported identifications made by the victim" in the carjacking case.
At an arraignment on Tuesday in Federal District Court in Brooklyn, a lawyer for Detective Foder entered a not-guilty plea on the detective's behalf. Detective Foder was released on bail.
Without addressing whether the photo lineups were fabricated, Detective Foder's lawyer, James Moschella, said the officer investigated the carjacking "in good faith."
"I don't think there is any indication he wasn't acting in good faith investigating the case," Mr. Moschella told reporters after the court hearing. Mr. Moshella said he expects Detective Foder to be suspended from the Police Department for 30 days, and return to work in some capacity while the case is pending.
The carjacking charges involving Mr. Polat's vehicle were dropped against the two men who had been arrested on the basis of the photo lineups — Mardoche Petitphare and Rayvaughn Williams — when they pleaded guilty to an unrelated crime: the attempted robbery of a fast-food restaurant.
The police commissioner, James P. O'Neill, said the people of New York "expect the highest levels of integrity and truthfulness from our police officers, who swore an oath to uphold the fundamental principles of our city, state, and nation."
He added, "The detective charged today broke that oath by willfully giving false testimony, an act that makes the job of every other police officer more difficult."

Happy Thanksgiving!
Dear readers and friends,
On this day of thanksgiving, let us be thankful to God for all that we have, all that we are, and all that He calls us to do. Give thanks for the small things, for they, summed together, make up the greater part of our lives. And for the great things, with which we publicly give testament to His glory and His grace.
Let us be peacemakers on this and every day, as our Lord Jesus has called us to be. Let us honor our guests and our hosts. Let us take a moment to pray, silently or together, to our Father from whom all blessings flow. Let us remember that there are people suffering, soldiers in the field, and nations at war and in strife in the world.
Have a safe, joyful, and happy Thanksgiving Day, my fellow Americans. And I pray that the spirit of the day may spill over to my readers and friends in other lands, rest in your hearts and give you pause to thank our Lord today, too, for the many blessings He bestows.
In Christ,
Psalm 106:1
New International Version (NIV)
1 Praise the Lord.
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
his love endures forever.
Psalm 100:4
New International Version (NIV)

Surviving Visits from the Grandparents During the Holidays
Accept that your children's grandparents and your parents are NOT the same people.
Just face it. Wouldn't you love to enjoy fun times with your kids every moment of every day? Well, it seems that's why God created grandparents. When your children exhibit behaviors that would have landed you picking a switch or banished to your room it's endearing and adorable to your parents.
When your parents overlook, overshadow or just plain ignore your parenting rules – ones you very likely inherited from them – that's just their way of enjoying the good times they didn't get to have when raising you. Cake for breakfast and cereal for dinner? No problem. And whose got a bedtime when Grandma's here? Approaching time spent with the Grands with this is mind will lessen the tension and the stress around their visit.
Plan some activities where everyone can participate.
Especially if the Grands come to visit you in your own space, plan activities for the entire family unit. They will appreciate the inclusion and the children will have the best of both worlds – fun with mom and dad with modified rules. Go sledding, ice-skating, play board games, watch movies or tell family stories to the kids. All in all, you will be building positive memories for everyone.
One year we took family photos and my parents were invited to be in them. Of course, my Dad did not follow the requested dress code, but I knew he wouldn't. Not only are we creating the memories we are capturing them for years to come.
Take advantage of the opportunity for alone time.
If you're like me, your college education, career opportunities or those of your spouse have taken you away from your hometown. We live in a city where the next closest family member is 100 miles away. Visits from the Grands are an opportunity for date night, spa time or maybe even just a nap. You get to leave the house for adult interaction and the kids get you to leave the house for Grandkid fun time. It's a win-win.
So at 1 PM on Christmas Day when the hubby suggested we go take a nap, I said ok. And when we woke all was well with the world and the house was still standing. Try taking a nap when the Grands aren't visiting. Yeah, that'll never happen.
Set some ground rules, but be prepared to bend them.
Establishing rules helps to maintain order and consistency helps to achieve routine and sets an expectation that your children can depend upon. Contrary to the popular saying, rules were not made to be broken. The trouble is that when grandma and grandpa come for a visit nothing is routine or consistent.
Allow yourself to go with the flow a little. Remember that it's temporary and that a couple days break from the routine will not ruin the pattern of behavior you've built with your family.
All in all, visits from the Grands can be a temporary relief from the stress that parenting can cause when viewed in the proper perspective. So go ahead and make plans for Grandma and Grandpa to join you for Spring Break. Then sit back, relax and take a nap.
What approach do you take to survive visits from the grandparents during the holidays?

The Remy Indian hair is thinner, but can still be styled and brushed. Colors range from Jet Black to Bleach Blonde. Style choices for all wigs include straight, body wave, celebrity style, fringe style, or Afro Curl. Lengths usually range from eight inches to twenty four inches, but that can be customized as well.Ordering Lace Wigs from Volure Hair Boutique can be done at the store or online.

Lately we have been encountering some above normal temperatures for February here in Connecticut. These warmer temps are making me feel anxious to get digging in the dirt. But for now all I can do is just look at the pictures I took from my garden.
I hope you can find some inspiration from these photos, so let's take a walk through my garden.
I love mixing catmint with my roses, I think it compliments them very well.
The climbing rose "America", even more beautiful in person. Such a great rose, train it as a climber or keep pruning it and keep it as a large shrub, you choose.
I purchased this basket at a tag sale for only $3.00! You never know what you can find at these things.
Oh foxglove, how I love you.
One of the most popular climbers, "Blaze"
More foxglove paired with catmint, just dreamy.
This small hedge of roses is of "Bonica" in the pink, and the red are "Red Meidilland" not sure if I spelled it correctly. Bonica is such a fruity smelling rose that is just so pretty and feminine, great for making quick dainty fresh arrangement for your bedside table, or bathroom. I just love it.
I hope you enjoyed your stroll through my garden.
Have a great day everyone! Muah!

Think Morality is a campaign by Who is Hussain which aims to explore the vast and diverse subject of morality – what it means to us as individuals and how it impacts society as a whole.
Understanding Morality
With growing inequalities, social injustices and divided societies across the world, could reviving moral values be the answer? If so, how should morality be defined and by whom. These are the questions we will endeavour to learn more about through this campaign. Take part by completing a short survey at the end of this page.
This campaign times itself with the first month of the Islamic Calendar, Muharram, the month in which Hussain is mourned. Hussain was a 7th century revolutionary leader who stood for social justice, and his legacy inspires millions worldwide.
Hussain's Morality
When Hussain rose 1400 years ago in defiance of an oppressive tyrant, he felt morally obliged to do so and in turn inspired generations since to take a firm stand against injustice – no matter where in the world it's taking place. Hussain, in his own words, wanted to revive the moral values of his society which he saw were in decline.
For Hussain, the foundation of social justice was deeply rooted with the moral values of every individual, which collectively form society. Today, with ever growing tensions and people desperately seeking a solution to the ills of society – could following the example of Hussain provide the answers we are looking for?
Your Morality
We want to know your views on this complex subject which can perhaps shed a light onto the thinking of the average person living in the world today. Take part in our short survey below!
In addition to asking questions about morality, our teams of volunteers around the world will be hosting dozens of events aimed at helping those most vulnerable and in need. From feeding the homeless to donating blood and much more. Why not consider attending one of these events too?

Welcome to the Drums Unlimited blog. If you are here, you are probably interested in how to soundproof/acoustically treat a music rehearsal space. Read on to find out how we did it in our Peckham rehearsal room.
Step 1- Analyse your room. The room that we were turning into a studio is a high ceilinged photography studio with a 17 foot brick wall on one side. Our main points of focus were soundproofing the two walls which adoin other businesses, and acoustically treating the room to get a better sound quality.
Step 2- Address weak points such as doors and windows. Sound waves travel through the air so any air gaps are bad news. We had a 2 foot gap above one wall which we had to fill in using recycled plasterboard and a timber frame. For the door, I purchased some cheap weatherproof seals to go around the edges to cut air flow, and covered the door surface in acoustic foam. This method uses easy to acquire materials and needs no tools to complete. WIN!
Step 3- Soundproofing the walls. Any sound boffins will know that to truly soundproof a room you must build a room within a room, with an air gap in between. This wasnt an option on our budget, so after much research online I found some heavy 500g/ms stage curtain on Thomann. When hung pleated, the curtain can cut the amount of decibels heard outside the room, and greatly improves sound quality in the studio itself.
Step 4- Ceilings and floors. We have a wooden floor and a very high ceiling, so it's essential that we soften the sound. Rugs were layered on the floor, and for the ceiling the plan is to make a draped fabric false ceiling. All we need now is a high enough ladder!
Step 5- Acoustic treatment. I made some DIY acoustic panels from recycled materials, which I'll be doing a post on soon. Until then, thanks for reading!
The key to soundproofing and acoustic treatment in music rehearsal spaces is soft surfaces.

A widget which displays graphic objects (in gnoclCanvas).
gnocl::canvas [-option value...]
Canvas widgets implement structured graphics. A canvas displays any number of items, which may be rectangles, circles, lines, text, bezier paths or standard widgets. Items may be manipulated (e.g. moved, scaled, rotated or re-colored) and commands may be associated with items with the bind command. For example, a particular command may be associated with the <button>-event so that the command is invoked whenever a button is pressed with the mouse cursor over an item. This means that items in a canvas can have behaviors defined by the Tcl scripts bound to them. Each canvas item has an integer value as uniq ID, which is returned on item creation. Furthermore each item may be associated with one or more tags. All canvas commands which operate on canvas items accept a tag-or-id-expression. This expression may contain tags or IDs combined with the operators (in descending order) ! (not), & (and), ^ (xor), | (or) and parenthezised subexpressions. E.g. "t1|(t2^t3)" or "!t2".

Jets coach Rex Ryan has reached rock-star status
This is Rex Ryan's world now, and everybody had better get braced for it.
Don't hate him because his team played beautifully.
As Ryan's New York Jets get set to meet the Pittsburgh Steelers in Sunday's AFC championship game, and tape recorders and cameras roll, there will be no larger or louder rock star in sports.
He deserves it.
Ryan and his players bragged and trash-talked the heavily-favored Patriots during the past week, then rose to the occasion Sunday by taking a rollicking 28-21 division-round victory in New England.
Yes, a logical person could call it needless bluster. But it's the only way this team knows how to play big games, and the Jets do both the boasting and the actual playing very well.
Big words from a big-time team.
After that performance — which upped the Jets' record to 4-1 in the past two postseasons with Ryan as coach and Mark Sanchez as quarterback — every single bellowing member of the Jets organization deserves their moment.
And we know they will take it.
The power of the Jets' personality is only one of the things we learned from the past weekend, but it was the most notable.
Some other things we learned from the weekend, which set up a strong final four: Chicago vs. Green Bay in the NFC championship game and the Jets vs. Pittsburgh in the AFC.
This might not be the start of the Patriots' fall from the elite, because that fall already started a few years ago.
New England wins regular-season games and may always win regular-season games, as long as Bill Belichick is the coach and Tom Brady is the quarterback.
But the Patriots–Super Bowl champions after the 2001, 2003 and 2004 seasons–are on a six-season non-title drought and are 0-2 in the past two postseasons.
By the way, Brady will turn 34 before next season begins.
Despite the raves for the Jets, the Steelers are well-positioned to win Sunday and make their third Super Bowl trip in six years.
The Jets beat Peyton Manning's Colts on the road on Jan. 8 and just beat Brady's Patriots.
To go three for three on the road, and have the third come in Pittsburgh against Ben Roethlisberger (and Troy Polamalu and that Pittsburgh defense) seems almost impossible.
I'm sure the Jets will love to hear that, of course.
The playoffs are about quarterback play, which means Green Bay and Aaron Rodgers are set up nicely to beat Chicago in the NFC title game. The playoff action further disputes former 49ers coach Mike Singletary's notion that QB is not the most important position.
In the eight games, the team that had the QB with the higher in-game passer rating won seven times.
In the divisional round, the Jets' Sanchez (127.3) beat New England's Brady (89.0); Chicago's Jay Cutler (111.3) beat Seattle's Matt Hasselbeck (94.3); Green Bay's Rodgers (136.8) beat Atlanta's Matt Ryan (69.0); and Pittsburgh's Roethlisberger (101.8) beat Baltimore's Joe Flacco (61.1).
In the wild-card round, Seattle's Hasselbeck (113.0) beat New Orleans' Drew Brees (95.4); Baltimore's Flacco (115.4) beat Kansas City's Matt Cassel (20.4); and Green Bay's Rodgers (122.5) beat Philadelphia's Michael Vick (79.9).
In the only outlier in the playoffs so far, Indianapolis' Peyton Manning (108.7) did not defeat the Jets' Sanchez (62.4).
It's those darn Jets, again, proving they can win with superior QB play or without it.
I think they'll finally hit the wall against Pittsburgh, but for now, this is Rex Ryan's world, and he's allowed to crow about it.

"After a couple of hearings, have no qualms about commending this Naxos release to the uninitiated. The gregarious nature of the music is matched by the approach of the performers; and the swagger in the outer movements, the tenderness of the adagios, and the courtliness found in the minuets all make for pleasurable listening."
"Modern instruments, if a touch bland after recent period-instrument revelations, suit these mature, full-blown wind symphonies. Some tuning, of oboes especially, lends a hard edge, but the performance captures admirably rhythmic wit of minuets and spontaneous good humour of fast finales."
"When Franz Krommer wrote the three wind partitas presented on this recording (between 1808 and 1810) the Harmonie-Musik tradition was waning, making these some of the last examples of this once widely-practiced genre. Scored for pairs of oboes, clarinets, horns, and bassoons, they gain added ceremonial nobility with the addition of contra-bassoon. Listeners new to this music also will note the high, penetrating clarinet parts in C for the Op. 76 Partita and the many flamboyant arpeggio passages for second horn throughout Op. 69. Both techniques recall outdoor styles of the late 1700s.
These new performances by the Michael Thompson Wind Ensemble are of very high order and have been pleasingly recorded in a bright-sounding church acoustic that suits this extrovert music particularly well. This account of Op. 79 supplants an older analog version by the Nash Ensemble, with well-focused if quite closely miked sound and playing that's more technically refined and better blended. Op. 76 has been recorded previously by the Meyer Wind Ensemble for EMI, but that performance is outclassed here by superior playing and a brilliant sense of comedy. For an enticing sample, try the final Rondo! Highly recommended."

Hello loveles,winter is here…i mean this side the coldness is increasing everyday…i don't know about your country but i guess Europe and USA it is already winter season.
check out my youtube video below.
I would like to share with you my list of winter outerwear style must haves to keep you warm, comfy yet stylish. Without further urdo lets do this;
1. Trench coat
With all this coldness that is out there ….never leave the house without a trench coat. This keeps you warm and chic at the same time. A trench coat is one of my favorite in this seaso plus it elevates your look.
2. A scarf & Beanies
what's winter without a scarf around your neck? dress your neck in style with a heavy scarf to save you from this cold weather.
It doesn't make sense when your whole body is warm but your head is freaking freezing…how about a warm beanie to save the day?
This is another substitute for a tench coat that must be in your winter wardrobe essentials this season. Did I say that sweaters and hoodies are more affordable than trench coats?
4. Boots & Sockings & Gloves
I do not expect you to wear flip flops or any kind of open shoes while walking outside otherwise your feet will freeze so badly…so invest in good pair of knee high boots,ankle boots to complement your look.
Sockings..bring more warmth to your feet as well as gloves to your hands so do not forget to shop for several pairs next time you hit the store.
Those are my winter must haves outwears, i would like to hear yours maybe i could add them to my list. Let me know in the comments section below.

Ohio Governor John Kasich's 2016-2017 proposed budget calls for a number of changes to Ohio Medicaid that will effect current and future Medicaid recipients.
Good News for Ohio's Disabled
Currently, an individual deemed disabled and granted Supplemental Security Income (SSI) by the Social Security Administration (SSA) must complete a separate application to qualify for medical coverage under Medicaid. Under the proposed plan, Ohioans who are granted SSI based on disability will automatically be enrolled in Medicaid.

Zika Virus: What You Need to Know
It's all over the news, Zika virus. How many local cases, what the local Government officials are doing to treat it and even going into local theme parks they are taking preventative measures (providing bug spray for visitors). This is what parents need to know about the Zika virus and the symptoms it causes:
- Rash
- Fever
- Pink eye (conjunctivitis)
- Joint pain
Parents can take preventative measures if they travel to affected areas:
- Use mosquito repellents as much as possible to avoid mosquito bites throughout the day.
- Wear long pants and long-sleeved shirts, both indoors and outside. The Zika virus-spreading mosquitoes are aggressive daytime biters usually found indoors. Your body needs to be protected throughout the day.
- Stay and sleep in screened or air-conditioned rooms, or use a mosquito net.

The following presentation was given by Steven Rynecki from USAID/Afghanistan during the recent Connected World Forum to introduce the Better Than Cash Alliance during the Mobile Money Academy on Thursday November 22, 2012.
The Better Than Cash Alliance is a partnership of Governments, the Private Sector and Development Organizations – including multilateral, bilateral and NGOs – who are committed to shifting their cash payments to electronic payments, which range from mobile wallets to bank accounts.
This shift is important because it saves money and increases transparency and accountability for these partners but perhaps more importantly it means that clients for the first time have access to a safe place where they can save and build assets and have access other appropriate financial services.
If you have not heard of it before that is not surprising because it was only recently launched! The Founding Members of the Alliance are The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Citi, Ford Foundation, Omidyar Network, USAID, and Visa, with UNCDF as the Secretariat. Join me as we show a brief video that was shown was shown at the launch.
Why Shift to Electronic Payments
Cost Savings: decrease costs of cash or in-kind payments.
- In Brazil, when Bolsa Familia grants were made through electronic payment cards, administrative costs were cut from 14.7% to 2.6%
- In Mexico, welfare recipients who got paid electronically saved 77% in travel costs compared to those who were paid at central cash depots.
- In the Philippines, GCASH Remit mobile money service is used to help the government provide conditional cash transfers to hundreds of thousands of families not able to be serviced in rural areas.
Transparency: increase accountability and tracking, reducing corruption and theft.
- In Afghanistan, when National Police received their salaries via mobile phones, they that they had received a 30% raise—whereas they were just receiving their full wages for the first time.
- In Argentina, when there was a shift to electronic payment cards, those admitting to paying bribes decreased from 3.6% to 0.3%.
Security: typically safer and faster delivery.
- Following the earthquake in Haiti, electronic vouchers cut aid delivery time by 3 days while mobile money cut aid delivery time by 7 days.
- In Kenya, people have been voting for electronic with their mobile phones. Now those sending money home to the country from the city send it via M-Pesa rather than bus drivers—getting it there more quickly and with greater certainty.
Financial Inclusion: can accelerate access to financial services.
- In Peru, people receiving social welfare payments electronically now have the opportunity to save and build assets in those accounts established for receipt of these payments.
New Market Access: open doors for new business models for previously excluded people.
- In Ghana, over 300,000 people were able to get access to insurance to help them with cover funeral expenses which are a social obligation—and an expensive one—obtained through the mobile network operator Tigo
- Mercy Corps is launching Agri-Fin Mobile, which will enable hundreds of thousands of smallholder farmers on two continents greater access to mobile financial services bundled with mobile farm productivity information.
- In the Philippines, BPI Globe BanKO has opened up more agent locations in one year than any other bank in the country and has opened up more than 200,000 mobile money enabled bank accounts within the first 8 months of operations.
Advocacy for shifting includes engagement at conferences, high-level meetings, closed-door meetings.
The policy, technical, and financial assistance will be made available primarily through a Technical Assistance Facility that is under development. It will also include support for peer learning, so that lessons learned can be shared, enabling shifts to be made more quickly and easily.
The first research product is available in the form of a white paper which can be downloaded from the website www.betterthancash.org.
Although we just launched recently, we already have commitments to make the shift to electronic payments from the governments of Peru, Colombia, Kenya, and the Philippines. Other stakeholders too have made their commitments: from bi- and multi-lateral organizations, commitments have come in from USAID, UNDP and the WFP. From the non-government organizations and the private sector, CARE, Mercy Corps, Concern Worldwide and Chemonics International Inc. have led the way.
Over recent weeks, and especially at the launch event in New York on September 24th and AFI and GPFI meetings in Cape Town in October, and the GSMA Conference in Milan two weeks ago, we have been listening to stakeholders to ensure that the Better than Cash Alliance is prepared to support them in this "shift, not drift." We have heard that there are challenges of coordination, leadership, technological, and trust, but that these are not insurmountable. We invite you as well to tell us how this Alliance can best contribute to transitioning to electronic payments. And we hope to hear more from you about this after the other presentations today.
Let me close with a statement by Florencio Abad, Secretary of Budget and Management, the Philippines made at the launch: "By joining the BTC alliance, we hope to have not only more opportunities to collaborate and learn from our peers, but also to gain more political support for greater electronic governance."
For more on the Better Than Cash Alliance and how you can be involved, feel free to check out the website at www.betterthancash.org
Tomorrow and the next day, we will share the second part of this presentation, which focussed on Chemonics lessons learned from managing USAID projects that supported the use of mobile money for development purposes.

WASHINGTON, May 22, 2016 – "Captain America: Civil War" is the 13th film chronicling the Marvel Cinematic Universe since 2008. It's also ostensibly the third movie of the Captain America franchise, which started with "First Avengers" in 2011 and "Winter Soldier" in 2014.
But at this point, each individual movie like this one can easily be treated as a sub-franchise chapter. Each successive film seems to exist to weave a more complex tapestry of the Marvel Universe. "Civil War" not only continues that trend, but makes it all the more entrenched.
"Civil War" takes place at least a year after "Avengers: Age of Ultron," and, by sheer happenstance, "Ant-Man," with the Avengers operating as a full-fledged paramilitary outfit of superheroes out of their upstate compound, which was introduced back in "Captain America: the Winter Soldier."
The current film begins in earnest after a brief prologue, in which the Avengers hunt down one of the secondary villains from "Winter Soldier." The upshot of this adventure is that the Avengers are inadvertently implicated in the death of several people in a bomb explosion due to the slow reaction of Captain America (Chris Evans) and the powers of Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olson). That kicks the narrative into full gear, and the Avengers' personal relationships spiral out of control from here.
Stepping back from "Civil War" for a moment, we should observe that, when it comes to the Marvel Cinematic Universe these days, it's hard to say if each successive film can be strictly regarded as stand-alone movies. Indeed, they certainly aren't individual franchises now, if indeed they ever were.
Segments occur in most of these films designed less to advance the plot and characterizations than to loosely connect the larger MCU continuity to the current film. Unfortunately, these segments feel out of place and might be better off forgotten entirely.
Ever since Howard Stark (John Slattery) was formally introduced in Iron Man 2, the notion that Tony Stark's and Steve Rogers' lives have been connected has become a key element in most of the Marvel films. Tony has always tried to live up to what's essentially a mythical super-character – one who eventually comes to life through Tony's engineering genius. At the same time, Steve tries continuously to live up to the ideals of his own initially government-created myth. This parallel narrative has continued to run through each successive film involving these characters.
All this character dovetailing can be a sticking point for Marvel fans who just want to see their favorite characters battling evildoers on their own. As it's evolving, however, the landscape Marvel Studios has laid out since 2008 can easily become unwieldy, much as it was in "Age of Ultron" for the most part.
Trying balance all of the characters, relationships and focus can easily cause a film to collapse under its own weight. In "Captain America: Civil War," we start out with a pretty simple conflict between the two strongest voices in the room. But then this film sends the audience and the Avengers down the rabbit hole.
The major conflict facing the Avengers in the current film arrives with the so-called "Sokovia Accords," the all-knowing U.N.'s "executive order" to put more safeguards and control on the most physically powerful individuals on the planet.
Vaguely similar to the implications underlying the recent "Batman v Superman" film, the motivating argument here stems from the vast urban and human destruction left in the wake of the Avengers' most recent cinematic outings. It's clear that in the context of the genre, our heroes do unintentionally cause a lot of collateral damage trying to solve the deadly, oversized problems they are forced to face.
Admittedly, this poses a strong dilemma for our superheroes, and it's not an altogether easy one for them to answer. That's why the Avengers begin take sides, causing the very personal "Civil War" that gives this film its title. The U.N. "Accords" are largely responsible for igniting the central controversy that splits Tony and Steve apart. But they also pose a more cosmic question: Who ultimately gets control over the Avengers?
Next: Tony, Steve… and T'Challa?

About Jessica Boles
I am a gifted songstress and pianist and angelic sound channel and I create a temple space of sound and silence where you will experience incredible sound scapes from Source and Mother Nature. Based in Glastonbury, I have worked both internationally and nationally in the field of sacred sound journeys since 1994.
I am moving more and more into a path of total surrender and trust which involves being in tune with Mother Nature and her rhythm and flow and finding peace within and without. Having faced and experienced many challenges in this world I am appreciating more and more that it is indeed possible to retrieve the beauty and stillness I felt I had lost during times of despair and that the beauty of Mother Nature and her songs of creation sustain everything and cleanse the soul. In fact being away from the natural flow too much, I became very sick combined with mercury poisoning and the interference of modern medicine also caused a lot of harm and I have always found that Nature is my only refuge and I rejoice in her grace and divine gardens.
The music I tap into is from here, created from the womb of creation and mirrored in the cosmos, the oceans of bliss that translate and embrace life in this world and the landscape for our dreams. The secret is to remember the sacredness of our Earth Song and her tapestries and geometries that literally hold the blueprints of heaven on earth. This has very much been my learning so far even though I have experienced a traumatic life path and lived through and witnessed abusive situations playing out all around me in my personal life and in humanity, where many have forgotten the gift of being present in the flow of presence in the gardens of bliss and allowing themselves to be this sacred flow within and without.
My journey seems to have been to experience extreme suffering at times, in order to reach out and bring through and re-connect with the divine musical of Planet Earth, from a greater depth and meaning of heart song for humanity, also includes creating with the many angelic light beings singing these songs and language of light. This is a presence and a knowing held in the heart, that is very much shared in the Sacred Sound Journeys I bring through and in the musical that is writing itself at this time. I am writing a musical for the planet. I feel very grateful that this opportunity is opening up for us all more and more, and that we are clearly going home as one.
It is my intention to receive and share this healing miracle life has to offer through the musical of life expressing itself through sound and song. I spent much of my life feeling lost and unloved and it is always nature showing me the way and that I can heal through allowing my self to be loved unconditionally and completely in being in myself in this world.
I look forward to re-establishing my divine connection more deeply through meditation into stillness and through sound. I find sound can be helpful in this respect to clear the mind and bring focus towards being still. The groups I have taken on sound journeys have profound results and those attending are always shifted into a deeper peaceful state of being and presence.
