Establishing guardianship of your elderly parents is always difficult to do. You may know intellectually or making sound financial decisions, but it can be difficult to get them to admit there is a problem. Many families wait too long before deciding who should become a guardian and end up having to take extra measures in court to protect their parents' assets, health and safety. If you've tried to discuss these issues with your family members unsuccessfully, you may need to meet with elder lawyers.
When you become the legal guardian of a parent, you are essentially taking over all decisions for that person, including financial, medical, housing and personal safety considerations. You will have control over their finances, but will be expected by the court to make money decisions that are in your parent's best interests, which may not be the same as yours. You will alstransportation when needed, and a host of other daily decisions that can become overwhelming. Meeting with elder lawyers before filing for guardianship can be extremely valuable, as they will explain just how much work is involved in being a guardian.
Siblings often discover that they don't have the same goals or expectations when it comes to handling parents' guardianship issues. Some children will hesitate to take autonomy from their mother or father even after all signs show that their parents can no longer care for themselves. Others may not agree about who should become the guardian. In some cases, meeting with elder lawyers as a family can help you sort out these issues. If an agreement can't be reached, a litigation lawyer may end up representing part of the family -- contesting another sibling's application for guardianship in court. Experienced elder lawyers can help minimize these potential problems if the entire family is kept in the loop during the proceedings.
Elder lawyers will draw up the legal documents needed to file for guardianship in court, but they will rely on you to provide them with the concrete evidence needed to determine that a parent is incompetent. You will have to prove in court that your parent or parents aren't healthy enough or of sound mind to make logical decisions. Evidence of money squandered, poor medical decisions, and neglect of their home or personal hygiene can all become part of the proceedings. Your parents may hire their own litigation lawyer to contest your petition to become their guardian, but try to understand that they are trying to keep control of their own lives. It isn't a situation that has to destroy your love for them.
You'll have a full plate, but elderoward valuable social resources if you consult with them on a regular basis. In many cases, you can avoid a litigation lawyer if you and your siblings are willing to meet regularly and review the guardianship with elder lawyers arents, your family and yourself.

It seems like it’s been forever since my last release, even though Taking Stock came out in September. My least favorite part of writing. A necessary evil.
All that revision means there is a book about to be birthed. Book 3 of The Hallowed Realms Trilogy with Amy Miles is set to go to the editor on March 3. That means we are in the final read-through of the manuscript trying to get it as clean as we can before we send it her way. It’s a tedious process that requires lots of red pens. Not to worry. I buy them in bulk.
I’m also reading over the first draft of the script Randy Hunt is working on for our collaboration. This one will be super fun to start once we have a more finalized script to use as the backdrop of my next romance.

On November 3, 2017, Egyptian lawyer, Nabih al-Wahsh, stated that any woman wearing ripped jeans deserves to be harassed and raped.
They are just clothes, I tell my father, when he passes a comment about my ripped jeans. He doesn’t understand – perhaps he never will. I run my hands along the tiny rips, feeling bits of skin and wondering if the freedom I feel is the oppression they want me to see. I see my legs in a pair of jeans, they see skin that is fighting the patriarchy. I see my choice, they see my rebellion.
He passed more disgusting comments while on the show Infrad, suggesting that women who dress a certain way deserve to be raped. Wahsh is a known conservative, but it’s still shocking to see such comments from someone whose profession requires him to be a champion for the freedom of his people.
I’m sitting here, reading this news and questioning if this is the world I live in or if the news is simply playing a horrible joke on me. I read further and find out that no, this is indeed the truth. This is the world I live in, even though I don’t want it to be.
Wahsh claimed that men have a national duty to harass women who dress in ripped jeans. This all goes back to the misogynistic society that many Muslim countries have built their beliefs upon. No, my clothes do not call for harassment. The length of my t-shirt is not a sign for you to come on to me. The rips on my jeans do not allow you to believe that it is your right to rape me.
On any given day, you can turn on the news and see numerous rape stories that occurred on that very day. Rape is taking away the dignity of another human being. Rape is telling the world that you do not care about the value of choice. Rape is a reminder that gender equality may never exist. Rape is telling the world that you see humans as bodies, and nothing else. So to hear someone say that a woman should be raped for something she is wearing is crushing, savage and brutal.
In Egypt, it is no different. RapeMarital rape is not illegal. It may not be in the top 10 countries with the highest rape statistics, but comments like these suggest that it could be.
What does “patriotic duty” have anything to do with a woman’s clothing? How can one even conceive that something like rape and national duty can go hand in hand? For a lawyer, you clearly have no ethics or sense of justice.
Why do we live in a place where men have to constantly put women down to bring themselves up? Are some of these men so insecure that they need constant reminders that they are better by pretending that women are inferior? The belief that a man can tell a woman what to wear is the downfall of humans. The power play that so many men believe they need to reinstate is completely backwards. I see it every day in Karachi. And I know that women in Egypt see it as well.
A woman is never asking for rape. If you had any semblance of an education, Wahsh, you would know that. Who said that a girl doesn’t respect herself if she wears ripped jeans? In fact, your respect is not something anyone would need or want. A woman’s respect lies in how she carries herself, how she interacts with others; it has nothing to do with the clothing, or lack of, on her body. Women in burqas get harassed and raped as well. Male rape is just as rampant in our society. If a man was wearing shorts, would you claim that he was inviting rape? No. Because apparently his body is his choice, and a woman’s isn’t, right?
Calling on people to rape women, and further, defining that as an act of patriotic sentiment, is sickening to the core. To all the women in Egypt who had to read about this, I am sorry. I am sorry that we live in a world where your voice is ignored over someone like Wahsh’s. I am sorry that we live in a place where people are allowed to speak this way.
As I finish reading the article, I notice that I have ripped jeans on. Ironic? Coincidence? Or maybe a reminder – a reminder that I can define my own freedom. That I can give value to my choices. A reminder that I am not oppressed. But also a reminder that so many women out there are.
I run my hands along the tiny rips across my jeans, letting them set me free.

She wrote on the wall of Twitter, “Loved it loved it loved it! Rangamma Mangamma! Uffamma uffamma! @ThisIsDSP After ages felt like singing a song! And doing it all the day! Bare with my voice, sung it with a lot of love though!”
Looks like fans didn’t like Sree Mukhi’s voice singing the latest single ‘Rangamma Mangamma’ from ‘Rangasthalam‘ starring Ram Charan and Samantha Akkineni. Few fans trolled Sree Mukhi as they did not like her expressions whereas few appreciated her singing talent and expressions. This time her attempt didn’t go well with some.

ens against the odds and despite the adversity of his own upbringing in the ghettos of Compton. His unquestionable talent brought him through his first two albums right to the top of the business. Like many before him he then faced a choice. He could do what the labels were forever pressuring him to do and stick to the proven sales formula or he could take the road less travelled by and focus on the glaring injustices in American society to which his own community of origin are particularly subjected. He chose the latter with a vengeance.
To Pimp a Butterfly – an album for our time
By making this album Kendrick not only conveyed a powerful statement on behalf of those who suffer injustice on a daily basis but he also set a positive example to other artists in his position. The effect has been staggering – a real turning point. Musically the album both explores and pays homage to Funk, Soul, Jazz and the ‘golden age’ of Hip Hop while still sounding fresh and raw. Both George Clinton and Ronald Isley made significant contributions to the record. Kendrick has taken the galvanising spirit of Funk and Hip Hop one giant step forward to somewhere we haven’t been in a long time. I cannot praise him enough for that and I draw inspiration from what he has achieved for the year ahead. </s> 16/12/2012

There's been no end of drama and controversy surrounding the Kennedy clan over the years, so it's only fitting that the recent miniseries about them set tongues a-wagging as well. As anyone who watched The Daily Show's hard-hitting investigatory segment knows, The Kennedys miniseries was originally due to premiere on the History Channel before the network backed out earlier this year. Eventually, the show found a new home at ReelzChannel, which left interested audience members both relieved and surprised to learn there was a thing called ReelzChannel.
For those not in the know, the miniseries charted the course of several generations of the infamous Kennedy dynasty, from the 1930s up through 1968. Naturally, it covers all the expected historical moments such as the Cuban Missile Crisis, but also spends plenty of time on the relationships behind the scenes. The cast include.

What Davis had, that others made comments upon, even from his earliest days was his “star” quality.

U18 State Squad
Re: U18 State Squad

I don't think so Frenchy. That is one of the major issues to be sorted.
The Crows priority when entering the SANFL was for their Reserve players to play together in the best comp possible & I don't think they have had much to say about the inequity however I don't think it will be too long before they speak up if Port keep approaching the SANFL the way they do.

Mypaspective.
I agree with everything you have written about Port Adelaide. The whole
Thing is a farce. I to was so glad to see Norwood beat Port in the GF last year. The arrangement that Port have at the moment is totally inadequate and should unacceptable. Changes need to be made as its inequitable for all the other SANFL Clubs

Mypaspective wrote: Couldn't agree more Testy. The whole Port Adelaide thing pees me off.
They should not have an Academy side (B grade to the B grade). The Crows don't. They shouldn't be allowed to play at Alberton so that an AFL club profits from SANFL games (hence my point above re Port playing 2 games per yr at CMS) & they should be paying an annual license fee of $400K ($50K per club) for the privilege of playing in our comp (The Crows pay it)
It is totally inequitable & I have been informed by a reliable source that our club voted against their entry into the SANFL comp because it was not under the same terms & conditions as the AFC. We were the only club to vote against.
Thanks for your response, much appreciated.

Shameless self-promotion attempt #2 - the fairy cake. But wait it gets better....
Beautiful girl awaiting her cake....
And!Purple and green cake!
The day was a total success. The only snafu was right when the guests were leaving Rio realized that she had somehow lost her earring backing and her earring had been hanging out all day. Not the end of the world, right?We just get her a new backing. WRONG!

It's human nature to want to succeed and accomplish tough goals. However, with these days being spread throughout our life, it's important to keep self-care a priority. So, I ask you this, "What have you done for you lately?"
Time away from your phone means time away from business calls and checking your inbox. YIKES!Just the thought is frightening. But your sanity and your health deserve it. Start with cutting off at a certain time in the evening, and gradually scale this back to what makes sense for you. If sparing an hour in the evening is the most you can do, DO IT!
Its nice when your team, your boss, or even your customer recognize your efforts on a job well-done, but don't let this become your standard. Right now, extend your right arm across your body, now pat yourself on the back. The sacrifices you make throughout the week, and even each day, should not go unnoticed. Whether they are obvious to those around you or not, you understand the effort you put in to your work day in and day out. Celebrate your WINS – big or small. TREAT YOURSELF, SHAMELESSLY!
Friend and mentor, Heather Dulin, introduced me to soulcations. This is the idea that whether you spend a day in nature or plan a week-long trip with a companion, the time you pour into yourself to recharge elevates you to the best version of YOU. This is the YOU your team needs, your family knows, and the world wants to meet!
CHALLENGE: find an activity you can do weekly that promotes health, motivation, and focus on YOU!

Fully-Funded Public Old Age Pension Programs - Stranger Than Paradise?
WIFO Working Papers No. 203
This paper discusses two topics which are at the very center of the ongoing political debate on public pension reform. First, we deal with the puzzle that there is a public pension system at all from a purely neoclassical point of view. Second, we address the issue which is considered the hottest in the social security discussion: Is there a transition from a PAYGO system to a funded system which is welfare-improving? The paper provides answers to both problems by telling the standard social security story in a different order. Most importantly, we introduce a "good" which the initially old hold but cannot eat, the initially young, however, do not hold but could eat if they had it. The paper states that this assumption does the job to tell a social security story which makes sense in terms of standard welfare economics and motivate a welfareimproving pension reform with a transition from a PAYGO to a funded system at its center.

The higuera tree of Puerto Rico bears a hard shelled fruit which has been crafted into vessels, musical instruments and ceremonial objects for centuries. Their pulp holds moisture and the large versions can weigh as much as 15 pounds when mature. Once fully dried, which can take up to 6 months, the shell is extremely durable. Gourd vessels have been discovered dating back 10,000 years. Andrea's innovative use of these underrated art forms earned her the title Artesana de Higueras, allowing her to participate in premier events throughout the island.

Job seekers browsing at the Little Village Job Fair.
HUGH SUCCESS: On Monday, Jan. 27, 2014 not only did Chicagoans fight the frigid temperature of ZERO degrees, with a wind factor of -22, but they also battled the impossible task of finding parking near St. Agnes Church gym, 2651 S. Central Park Ave. Despite these challenging conditions four hundred [400] job seekers came to the Little Village Community Council 1st Annual Job & Resource Fair. St. Agnes’ gym doors were open from noon to 5 p.m. “The turnout proves how desperately people need jobs in our community,” said August Sallas, President, Little Village Community Council.
CO-SPONSORS of the Job & Resource Fair were State Sen. Steve Landek and State Rep. Lisa Hernandez. “The turn-out was awesome!” said Hernandez.
Young adults gathering job information
AGENCIES and businesses at the Job & Resource Fair were IL. Dept. of Transportation, IL. Dept. of Agriculture, IL. Dept. of Children and Family Services, IL. Dept. of Corrections, IL. Dept. of Employment Security, IL. Dept. of Central Management Services, IL. Dept. of Revenue, IL. Dept. of Professional Regulations, IL.

ALD. MUNOZ is informed of each of these planned meetings; an invitation letter was hand-delivered to Ald. Munoz’s office a week prior to this most recent meeting. Yet, Munoz continues to ignore the invitations; he does not respond and, again, failed to attend. Ald. Munoz does not give a reason why he cannot attend these community meetings. Forty [40] residents braved the bitter cold weather to be at the community meeting anxious to learn about the housing project Ald. Munoz is proposing. At the meeting, attendees voiced their strong opposition to the public housing project in Little Village. Another community meeting is scheduled for February. Ald. Munoz will again be invited.

HERBALIFE SCAM: Chicago community Latino activistsbusiness practices of Herbalife. Herbalife sells weight loss and nutritional products but thionly through distributors who invest their money to get Herbalife products, and then can [supposedly] profit by finding customers.
Latinos leaders held a Press Conference at the State of Illinois Building
LATINOS who buy into Herbalife’s pitch don’t make any money and often lose their investments. This business model of Herbalife’s is a pyramid scheme, a fraud, and unfairly target Hispanics said Latino leaders. Julie Contrer in Waukegan, said, “In reality most distributors lose money. Herbalife profits by getting new distributors to buy in, which would fall under the definition of a pyramid scheme.”
OMAR said: “By targeting vulnerable populations, those who are put at risk by Herbalife’s business model are those who have the most to lose.” A number of Latino victims have been identified. Madigan’s office plans to review the complaints against Herbalife. The toll-free number for Illinois victims to call and share their story is (855) 701-5437.

The four seals are surrounded by hundreds of Taliban insurgents and battle against fierce gunfire. One seal survives this impossible mission to tell the story. Actor Mark Wahlberg does a good job acting. I give it three stars.

WHERE’S RICARDO? Ald. Ricardo Munoz [22nd Ward] has missed three opportunities [meetings] to inform the Little Village residents and business people about the Mercy Public Housing project. A project he wants to build on 26th St. & Kostner Ave.
AS PRESIDENT of the Little Village Community Council and a homeowner for 35 years in Little Village, I have not heard anyone say we need affordable public housing in Little Village. The people who are saying so are not in touch with the community. Mexicans are homeowners.
MANY Little Village residents and businesspeople have voiced their opposition to the housing project. Sadly, Enlace Chicago members have been calling the Mexicans in Little Village who oppose the housing project—racist [on Face Book of all platforms]. Enlace cannot comprehend that the Mexican residents of Little Village [the most densely Mexican community of Chicago and the Midwest] do not consider the housing project a Black issue; they see it as Mexican issue. Valid concerns expressed by Mexican residents and businesspeople are economic (devalued property), cultural stability, safety, and increased crime.
LITTLE VILLAGE parents and their children have been clamoring for a sports and recreational facility. What Little Village needs on 26th St. & Kostner Ave. is a soccer field, a park with state-of-the-art and modern amenities, a vocational school, senior or youth center, or even a military historical museum. What it doesn’t need is a public housing project! Ald. Munoz made a promise years ago that he would build a park in the community. As of today, he has failed to keep his promise. It is unfortunate Ald. Munoz is not listening to the parents and children of his community. Remember, Munoz is up for election next year 2015.
ANOTHER community meeting is scheduled at Piotrowski Park, 4247 W. 31st St. from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 23, 2014. Ald. Munoz will, again, be invited to attend this meeting and report on his housing project. LVCC and HOPE want to remind Alderman Munoz he has an obligation to inform the community.

In the category of smart materials, the magnetic shape memory alloy (MSMA) Ni-Mn-Ga has gained traction due to its giant strains of 6-10% when exposed to a magnetic field. This property makes the material a potential candidate for small-sized motion-producing devices in which conventional mechanisms fail to perform. Additive manufacturing (AM) has demonstrated novel ways of engineering with its ability to produce high-complexity shapes. Laser power bed fusion (L-PBF) is an AM method that bases on layer-by-layer melting of powder feedstock using a focused laser beam. Recently, this process has gained interest as a promising approach to manufacture Ni-Mn-Ga-based MSMAs. The overall results from this process have been positive, although the built material requires considerable amount of post-processing, for example, by heat treatments. This thesis aimed to study the properties of the samples fabricated from Ni-Mn-Ga alloy by L-PBF. A set of Ni-Mn-Ga samples with slightly different compositions were built using L-PBF and subsequently heat treated. Several characterization methods were utilized to study the micro-structure and the MSM-related properties of the produced samples in both, as-built and heat-treated, conditions. The results confirmed what was already stated in the scientific literature; the built samples exhibited homogeneous chemical compositions, modulated martensitic crystal structures, and fully reversible martensitic transformations typical for the Ni-Mn-Ga alloys fabricated by L-PBF. Internal stresses, compositional variation, local variations of lattice parameters, and disordering were suggested as the reasons of low-quality properties in as-built samples. Heat treatment homogenized and stabilized the crystal structure as well as reduced internal stresses. Heat-treated samples possessed high-quality magnetic properties and diffraction spectrums; the grains appeared larger with long-range order. EDS experiment did not reveal composition gradients in the material. It was concluded that L-PBF was a reliable and repeatable manufacturing method for Ni-Mn-Ga MSMAs.

Meredith (Photo: Getty Images for Child Mind Institute )
you might not have seen coming.
Who: Meredith Vieira
Why: In the past decade, the Irvington resident went from talking pop culture and politics on “The View,” to interviewing newsmakers on the “Today” show, to asking the tough questions on “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.” After saying goodbye to “Today” in 2011 and leaving “Millionaire” this year, the Emmy-winning journalist stayed busy in 2013 doing whatever she was inspired to do — whether it was discussing journalism with students at Ossining High School or launching LIVES, a female-focused YouTube channel where she discusses family, health and more.
Watch for: The food and fashion lover is developing a website, but she still hasn’t revealed what its focus will be. “It's a space I wanted that I couldn’t find anywhere else,” she told NY Magazine recently. “I’m still being very vague, intentionally. Byt’” Rumor has it the website will be something like Goop, Gwyneth Paltrow’s popular online lifestyle publication.
Who: Sean “Diddy” Combs
Why: The rapper, whose first business venture was a paper route when he was a child in Mount Vernon, was named the highest paid hip-hop artist this year by Forbes Magazine, with a net worth of $580 million. In October, the music and fashion mogul aRevolt aims to bring music videos back to cable television, much like MTV did in the ’80s.
Watch for: As Diddy’s Revolt makes a name for itself in the cable industry, expect him to launch exciting new programming that takes advantage of today’s social media. “It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done,” Comb.”
Watchll 212-239-6200 or visit telecharge.com.
Who: Rosie O’Donnell
Why: The longtime Nyack resident moved to New Jersey recently, but she launched some exciting projects before she left town. First, the comedian and actress made her return to television this fall, playing a woman who works for the foster care system in ABC Family’s “The Fosters.” She also returned to the stage, performing standup at comedy clubs including Levity Live in West Nyack.
Watch for: What’s next? O’Donnell, who survived a heart attack in 2012, says she will film a HBO comedy special to raise awareness for heart health. “A large percentage of my act will be about what happened to me since my heart attack and how the world changes when you cheat death,” she says. “I wanted to do a special that would educate women, as well as entertain them without the medical jargon.”
Why: The long-time Westchester resident had been out of the news for a while until financial troubles landed him in the headlines recently. The rock star, dubbed “The Spaceman” during his years with the band KISS, faced some financial challenges with a property he’s owned since 2000 at 1347 Spring Valley Road in Yorktown. In 2011, U.S. Bank National Association claimed Frehley hadn’t paid his $735,000 mortgage in two years. Lenders initiated a foreclosure last year. On Dec. 14, a fire destroyed the house which Frehley had used as a studio and for storage.
Movies coming in 2014:
New City native Skylar Astin plays a playboy looking for true love in “Cavemen,” set to hit theaters on Feb. 7.
Bedford’s Richard Gere plays a hedonistic philanthropist in “Franny.” (Release date unknown.)
Bedford resident Ryan Reynolds will play a a bathroom fixture factory worker who talks to his pets in “The Voices.” (Release date unknown.)
Music on the horizon:
Yonkers singer/rapper Outasight plans to release an independent album, with “no middleman,” directly to the fans this year.
Troubled Yonkers rapper DMX has been working with producer Swizz Beatz on his comeback album, expected some time in 2014.

Giant posters trumpeting "Poet's Follies" of 1955-56 at the Cellar Door on Washington Street welcome visitors to the de Young Museum's stirring and imaginative "Beat Culture and the New America: 1950-1965," opening tomorrow. The hallway display teases guests into the exhibition with magazine flotsam -- stories in Mad and Life magazines ridiculing "beatniks" while exploiting the movement's commercial fodder (pot, poetry, beards, berets). It also demands attention with a magnificent 1957 photo of: "BANNED BOOKS -- ALL BOOKS IN THIS WINDOW HAVE BEEN CENSORED OR SUPPRESSED," reads the sign above works including "Ulysses" and "Howl."
Beat culture is remembered as a movement for free expression and against censorship and conformity, of course, but as three large rooms devoted to regional Beat art reveal, much more was to burst forth from those North Beach bagel shops and galleries, those New York "happenings" and Los Angeles art shows.
As black-and-white photos by Allen Ginsberg (captioned in his distinctive handwriting), Robert Frank, John Cohen, Wallace Berman and others show, this was a political movement against the nuclear bomb, McCarthyism, the Rosenberg trial and the annihilation of independent thought; it was a movement of art, civil liberties, dope, sex, jazz, theater, mysticism and literature that would change a nation's sensibilities and spur other movements (anti- war, rock music, drug culture, civil rights).
What a thrill it is, then, to see all these influences come together in a single exhibit of about 250 pieces. One feels the Beat origins in Ted Joans' silhouette painting of Charlie "Bird" Parker, where man and saxophone merge as a single emblematic call to soul-inspired bebop. Take a few steps and see how the free-form expression of jazz led to the "spontaneous bop prosody" of Jack Kerouac, whose "manuscript" of "On the Road" sits under glass in its original scroll form, tattered and brown yet ready to roll out once again to revolutionize and repudiate the smug, the accepted, the narrow and the bland of any era.
Here as elsewhere the exhibit bursts mythical bubbles. Kerouac might have typed "On the Road" on a 100-foot roll of teletype paper in one Benzedrine- driven sitting, but it is not true that he never edited it. As Ginsberg did with "Howl," whose manuscript sits a few feet away, Kerouac penciled obvious fixes onto the manuscript with enough attention to detail to rebut his famous "first thought, best thought" premise for all to see. Still, as a first and brilliant draft and simultaneous act of "performance art," this single, dense, rolled-up book-in-the-making is a thrill to behold.
One finds one's head constantly lifting from the micromaniacal rewrites, journals, magazines, poetry collections and oddities of writers (a William Burroughs' "manuscript" lies in a pile of torn-up pieces) to the striking and magnificent works of art that are dramatically lit and assault the senses. When you walk into the main exhibit, you might as well make a beeline to "The Rose." This Jay DeFeo painting calls out to you from its blistering white-lightness as the centerpiece.
DeFeo began this project in 1958 in a Fillmore Street apartment. She added so many layers over the next eight years that the paint swelled from 2 to 8 inches thick (you can look at it from the side and see a kind of pregnancy to the canvas). Weighing well over a ton, what began as a star-burst or rose-window effect took on elements of such weight and excavation that the paint (which is still wet under its many layers) began to pull downward and crack, causing the artist to shore up parts with clods and trowels of even more paint.
The amazing contradiction in "The Rose" is its enduring beauty amid the primordial decay of its own archaeology, suggesting as many interpretations as there are layers of paint. The image is at once the flash you would see before a nuclear explosion; it is the first light of sun blinding the morning seer; it is "first thought, best thought"; it is spring's first brilliance over winter; it is free will outshining oppression and fascism. And as explicit photographs of DeFeo suggest nearby, it is the artist's vulva, her homage to Leonardo da Vinci's "Universal Man," the seventh chakra, the simple clarity of a glass of rose wine (broken in one photo). With the painting comes its own legends, some morbidly fasci nating: DeFeo "completed" the painting only when she and her husband were evicted from the Fillmore Street apartment. Cranes were needed to transport it, still crumbling, to conservation storage, where it remained for 25 years. By that time, DeFeo had succumbed to lead poisoning, from the paint, and the Beat movement was considered dead. But "The Rose," standing as well for resurrection, for re-explosion of creative energy long after conformists may rule, of course lived on.
The show, which opened at the Whitney Museum in New York a year ago, was criticized for Alfred Leslie, who were not considered Beat artists. Yet one can see in the paint-dripping chaos of Pollock's "Number 27" why Kerouac admired Pollock's idea of tapping the subconscious in unedited form, much as jazz musicians did.
The juxtaposition at this exhibition with Robert Rauschenberg's collage "Mother of God" gives the viewer an appreciation for origins of Beat art as political engagement. Here cut-out city maps surrounding a large empty circle strategically draw the eye to such pinpoints as Washington, D.C., and the Pentagon, which make the whitish hole suddenly resemble the huge void or mushroom cloud of the Bomb. At the same time, the orb in "Mother of God" suggests a cosmic presence of universal ener gy that exists whether humankind plays God or not.
Perhaps more challenging to the viewer are sculptures commenting on a wasteful and "wasted" society. While Bruce Conner's "Portrait of Allen Ginsberg" (1960-61) uses a discarded wooden door frame, hanging rocks and torn nylon hose to acknowledge the poet's breakthrough poetry and reframing of the American artistic voice, what one remembers from this piece are images of hanging testicles, about which Ginsberg was eloquent.
On the other hand, George Herms' "The Librarian" (1960), with dirt-covered, spine-busted books taken from the Larkspur dump and strewn upon the crossbar of a Christlike form, inspires many complex interpretations about the process of art itself.
With its small red stool, crate and slatelike paper suggesting children at school and the close proximity of a black female welder (with eyes whited out) with a white Madonna and the book title "Thinking White" prominently displayed, the piece comments on what was figuratively dumped on children in the McCarthy era. It also suggests how easily the need for diverse expression can be subverted -- except, perhaps, in a librarian's strong arms, where the permanence of print, however damaged, is valued.
"Beat Culture and the New America: 1950-1965" opens tomorrow and runs through December 29 at the M.H. de Young Memorial Museum , Golden Gate Park. Call |||PHONE_NUMBER||| .

Working for an ink company, we spend most of every day talking "ink." And you wouldn't believe some of the stuff our staff hears on a regular basis—and from seasoned printers at that!
I visit plants routinely that are trying to use the same white ink on every substrate. Ordinarily, this single ink will be a high-opacity, low-bleed formulation they've tested and found to work well on their worst-bleeding fabrics. After all, if the gun works on an elephant it should work on a rabbit, right?Wrong!
I already know how to print, so I don't need to read a technical-data sheet!
I frequently listen to customers tell me they don't want to offer color matching or learn to print high-density because the process looks messy, difficult to learn and they "just don't have the time." I guarantee you that a nearby competitor is staying up, and is getting ready to steal your customers away. Award-winning shops continually attend trade shows, vendor open houses and educational seminars and workshops, question their vendors about new processes and products and also schedule time on press to test the processes on their own or with the vendor. One shop with which I'm familiar holds what it calls "training day" at least once a month where the whole shop participates in learning about a new product or process. No time in your busy production schedule?
If, after reading this, you still don't think you need to learn new processes, I hope you'll call me next time a customer walks into your shop and says: "I'm afraid I can't do business with you anymore. You're just too darn good!
Aside from using the best bleed-resistant ink, there's just nothing I can do to prevent dye migration on 100 percent polyester fabrics!
The largest number of complaints received by ink manufacturers—and, it follows, by printers from their customers—pertain to designs cracking or washing off garments in the laundry. When we ask about their cure-testing procedures, most of these complainers say they don't follow them very often . . . if at all. Good grief!
Squeegees: Are you using the right durometer squeegee?The higher the durometer the less ink will be pushed through the screen. The angle of the squeegee during the print stroke also makes a difference as a lower angle puts down less ink than a higher angle. Is the blade sharp or dull?
Screen tension, off-contact distance, squeegee pressure: Do your screens resemble a trampoline or a wash board?

Samson becomes KC
The story of KC, the Little Rock Zoo lion, continues here from the Corndancer dot com Photo of the Week. Click here to see the first part of the story if you missed it. KC, first known as Samson, a lion cub, became a part of the Cliff Cheatwood family just in time for Christmas in 1982.
Samson grew up, not knowing that he was a feared predator. He believed he was a part of the Cheatwood family with all pertinent rights and privileges. The small, cuddly cub did not stay small. He became substantially more than a lap full, but still did his best to stay cuddly.
As time went on, the looming, inevitable decision had to be made. The obvious solution was the nearby Little Rock Zoo. When zoo officials learned that Samson was declawed, they politely turned down the Cheatwoods largess with their beloved lion. It seems the other big cats would figure out Samson had no claws and it would be impossible for him to eat in a crowd. Then, the zoo conditions changed. The zoo would accept Samson and he would be the sole lion of the zoo. He became KC, short for Kitty Crglary problems, lion cub, Little Rock Zoo, pet lion |

»The Best of Tony Evans 2017 - CD Series
Trusting the God You Believe In
The Husband's Role in the Home
These messages represent the highlights of 2017 with fresh and transforming instruction from pastor and teacher Tony Evans. The Best of Tony Evans CD-series includes ten messages on CD and ten additional FREE MP3 downloads. Order the series today, and experience the inspiration from this past year.
The Best of Tony Evans 2017 CD Description
Overcoming Emotional Strongholds CD (Psalm 42:1-11) – Life can be cruel, and when tragedy or calamity comes on strong, we can become emotionally compromised. Depression and sadness can bring the best of us to our knees. But our God is bigger than any calamity, and His Word shows us how we can be freed from the shackles.
The Need for Spiritual Armor Part 1 CD (Ephesians 6:10-13) – Many Christians fear the devil. But even though he's very powerful, he's the last person we should be afraid of. Tony Evans says that the only power that Satan and his demons have is the power we give them. In this message, he explains how to start saying “no” to the devil and making it stick.
The Husband’s Role in the Home CD (Ephesians 5:25-33) – Men, if your wife isn't the woman you'd hoped she'd be, Tony Evans suggests that you start making some changes—in yourself. He explains why most husbands' approach to marriage is upside down. They should be willing to say, “I do” for the privilege of satisfying her, not for the interest of satisfying themselves.
The Purpose of Detours CD (Genesis 37:1-11) – Each of us has a God-given destiny—a place of significance where we will be effective at giving maximum glory to God. While these detours are often difficult and test our patience, there is a divine purpose to them: God is preparing us for our destiny and our destiny for us.
Your Experience and Your Destiny MP3 (Luke 22:31-34) –od's greatest glory and the greatest benefit to others.
Experiencing Spiritual Authority MP3 (Mark 11:20-26) - If God gave us the authority to be rulers in life, why do so many of us feel like we're in chains instead of in charge? Tony Evans explains why it comes down to the difference between having power and putting it to use.
Divine Reversals MP3 (Esther 7 & 8) - We're all comfortable with the idea of the Lord getting us out of trouble. Tony Evans talks about what may be happening when God intentionally lets us get into it.
Jehovah Rohi, the Lord is My Shepherd MP3 (Psalm 23:1-6) - So, Tony Evans will focus on how the Lord shepherds his flock… namely us!
Your Future and Your Destiny MP3 (Jeremiah 29:11-14) - "Tomorrow"ead.
Slaying the Giants in Your Life MP3 (1 Samuel 17:31-37) - We know that the size of our problems is nothing compared to the size of our God, but sometimes it's hard to keep that truth in mind when you’re face to face with a challenge that overwhelms you. Tony Evans says that if that's what you're focusing on, you're missing the point. It's a look at putting "giants" in their place.

Take time out to invest in family life
Have you ever wished that your baby or child had come with a manual? Or longed to know how to relate better to your teenager? Or dreamt of finding time to relight the fire in your marriage? If so.
This Autumn, a series of family courses covering marriage and parenting – based on materials produced by Holy Trinity Brompton in London – will be running locally in Coleraine at Causeway Coast Vineyard (www.causewaycoastvineyard.com).
There’s a nominal fee of £15 per couple for the first night of the Marriage Course and then it’s £10 per couple each week thereafter – this covers the cost of your course materials plus your two-course meal and wine. Think of it as an inexpensive ‘date night’ – with the tools to improve your communication and enrich your relationship thrown in. Where else can you get that in Coleraine?!
And for those in or heading towards the potentially ‘choppy’ waters of life with young adults, the Parenting Teensyour teen’s needs, support their emotional health, and help them to make good choices. It’s a weekly oasis of calm in the midst of life with teenagers. It’s also free.
Ali Knight, Community Pastor at CCV said: “Marriage classes aren’t only for people whose marriages are in trouble, and a parenting course isn’t just for those in crisis – these are wonderfully enriching, positive courses that can help put back into family life what the stresses and strains of busy, modern living can take out. They’re great fun, too - expect lots of laughter! So come along to learn valuable, practical tools for enriching family life in an informal, relaxed setting where you’re guaranteed a giggle. Our families are the most important thing we have and they’re worthy of a little TLC.”
Here’s what people have said about the Marriage Course: “We both had real fun on the marriage course. It changed my thought process on the small things we take for granted, and helped us remember the good times.”
“It’s been brilliant. We’ve realised that we need to intentionally make more time for one another, and remembered why we married one another.”
All of Causeway Coast Vineyard’s relationship courses start this Autumn - dates are yet to be confirmed but for more information on any of our family life courses or to book your place please visit causewaycoastvineyard.com/relationships or call the Causeway Coast Vineyard office on 028 7032 6161.
Please note, courses are open to all and you don’t have to be a Christian or church-goer to attend - they’re suitable for all and everyone is welcome.

‘We wait for lite, but behold obscurity, look for britenes, but we walk in darknes.’ A tapestry of quotations from the King James Bible, William Blake, Gilgamesh and the works of seventeenth century Ranter Abiezer Cobbe interwoven and translated into Yorkshire dialect, A Shaken Bible revives familiar passages by setting them in playful dialogue with each other. It demonstrates how the scriptures are the fragmented collages they always were and collapses the Alpha and Omega into a Bible of what Gillian Rose termed the ‘broken middle’. Steven Hanson defies academic and theological traditions while retaining a strong core of theory, creating a unique blend of classics, criticism, and creative writing.
The series is launching across June 2021 with a set of four books, including other new works by R but until now out-of-print "Macbeth, Macbeth" by Ewan Fernie and Simon Palfrey...

-4 is the second most popular of the 2000-series aluminum alloys, after 2024 aluminum alloy. It is commonly extruded and forged. The corrosion resistance of this alloy is particularly poor. To combat this, it is often clad with pure aluminum. If unclad 2014 aluminum is to be exposed to the elements, it should be painted as a corrosion protection measure.!

Inside the 1210sa, a few compromises have been made to get the price below £500. You don’t, foe’s no Bluetooth, either. Of course the other main difference is that this is an AMD-based model, with processing handled by an Athlon X2 QL-65 running at 2.10GHz with 1MB L2 Cache. RAM has also been reduced from 4GB to 3GB, though the actual difference should be negligible on a 32-bit OS, while the graphics chipset remains the same 512MB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4530 as before.
While the AMD processor might have similar sounding specs to the Intel CPU seen previously, the different architecture means it doesn’t perform anything like as well – 18 per cent slower overall in PCMark Vantage than the 1240ea. However, interesting though this comparison might be, it’s not fair on AMD or the 1210sa, which costs £220 (almost a third) less. A more useful comparison is with the Packard Bell EasyNote TJ65, which costs around the same, is the same size and uses a 2.0GHz Intel Dual-Core Pentium.
What none of these tests show, however, is battery life and here both Intel based systems hold an advantage. How important this is will depend on the individual and at 2.85kg the 1210sa can hardly be classed as portable, but its battery life is quite poor. In the Productivity segment of MobileMark 2007 it barely passed two hours, ending 41 minutes before the dv6-1240ea and 93 minutes before the Packard Bell. This trend is continued throughout all the tests, making this one laptop that needs to be close to a power socket most of the time.

June 8th was the World Ocean Day.
I wanted to write this post for the special day but unfortunately missed it due to some circumstances. I debated for a while whether it was still ok to post it, and then I realised that yes, it is absolutely ok – because in reality, every day should be the Ocean Day, just like every day should be the Earth Day and Environment Day. You see, the Earth, the Ocean, our Environment are our home – our forever home which we can’t change, no matter where we go. So why care about it only on a special day like June 8th or April 22nd? We should take care of them every day, because our every move determines their destiny – determines our destiny.
World Ocean Day, much like World Environment Day (June 5th) and Earth Day (April 22nd) that I posted about in the past, chooses a theme for every year to raise awareness about the global problems surrounding the oceans, such as oexplain what we can do to help these problems – together.
Today I want to briefly talk about the issues that ocean conservation is facing. The concern about these issues keeps growing, and where we, people, should be finding solutions, in reality we are contributing to these issues on a daily basis.
Save our Ocean. We only got oneClicking the links is free of charge, but if you choose to buy the product, I may earn a small commission, which is important for me to keep this site going. For full disclosure please read the Disclaimer page.
This applies to all food industries: from factory farming to fishing. We fish so much (and not always legally) that the oceans, seas, rivers and lakes are becoming depleted in the fish species. You can argue, so what if we run out of a species of fish? But it’s not only one species, and the impact of losing even one species can lead to massive consequences.
What can you do to help? Educate yourself about where your fish comes from, find trustworthy, sustainable fish producers. Research what fish species are endangered or on a verge of becoming so and avoid consuming it. Limit consumption of fish to once or twice per week, or give up fish altogether (hint: with all the environmental issues (plastic, oil spills) and fish farming, they are no longer that healthy and are sometimes dangerous to consume).
Besides being home to millions of marine species and serving as protection from the storms, the coral reefs are valuable to humans for serving as a beautiful tourist attraction and providing billions of dollars worth of food. Coral reefs can potentially play a huge role in developing medication and treatment, such as cancer treatment.
What can you do to help? Opt for mindful and educated seafood consumption. Correctly dispose of waste to prevent it from ending up in the ocean, avoid single use plastic and micro-plastic (microfibre fabrics, beauty scrubs, toothpastes and other beauty/household products containing microbeads). Research sunscreen that is coral safe, for example, Bondi Sands.
What can you do to help? While you can’t completely and immediately put a stop on the oil business, you can make better choices for your own lifestyle. For example, you can invest in an electric car that does not require petrol or diesel. Or if your location allows, you can walk or bike instead. You can also research and invest into home heating systems that do not use oil. You can also avoid petroleum products and by-products, for example Vaseline, also known as petroleum jelly. While there isn’t much you can do to make an immediate difference, choosing alternative fuels and products will eventually lead to lesser demand in oil-derived products.
One of the effects of the global warming and climate change is the warming of the water in the oceans. WWF estimates a rise in the sea temperatures from 0.3 to 0.9C by 2030. While it may not sound like a lot, the impact of it is great and could cause irreversible damage. The rising temperature leads to acidification of the waters and coral reef bleaching, both of which may lead to death and extinction of many species. In addition to this, the water expansion and melting of the ice mass due to higher temperatures cause the sea levels to rise, flooding the coastal areas. This will eventually wreck havoc on the entire planet, not just the ocean.
What you can do: Global warming and climate change are not that easy to fight, but it doesn’t mean that you can’t take baby steps to slow down the destruction.
Choose beauty, healthcare and home products that are refillable, use biodegradable packaging and natural ingredients.
Insulate your home, switch to energy saving lamps, taps, etc. Invest in appliances that have the best energy rating. Invest in solar panels, save rain water for your garden and other chores.
Last, but not least, let’s talk about the plastic pollution.
The scariest part is that this list could go on.
You see, plastic is everywhere these days. It is sneaking into our homes through excessive packaging on fruit and veg or even clothing. The vast majority of toys are plastic. Tooth brushes and tooth paste tubes are plastic. For some, drinking water from plastic bottles comes as a cheaper alternative to installing a water filter, and it is almost always a healthier alternative to tap water. There is simply too much of it, and we keep making more. It destroys our ecosystems, pollutes the oceans and kills the animals.
But what if you could turn it around and reverse the harm that the retail industries have been doing for years? What if instead of unconsciously/unwillingly contributing to this mass destruction you could consciously contribute to reducing this pollution?
How can we give back to the Ocean?
Get a reusable coffee mug, water bottle, cutlery and lunch boxes. Opt for stainless steel, ceramic, glass or bamboo. Some good quality BPA-free plastic can also last you a long time but make sure you can recycle it after.
Research beauty and home care companies that do refills and are chemical free.
Choose clothing that is made sustainably by using recycled or organic materials, such as recycled plastic from PET bottles, recycled denim, cotton, polyester, or organic cotton, linen, etc..
Two Thirds: This is a Spanish, Barcelona-based company that uses organic cotton and linen to produce clothing. With their motto ‘Ocean at heart, Eco in mind’ and the entire breezy ocean-centred branding, they won my heart in an instant.
Spotlight Oralcare: This is an Irish dental hygiene company that (in my honest opinion) makes the best toothpaste ever. Their products are developed by dentists, kind to your body and kind to our planet, and they are certified Ocean-safe.
Callaly: Callaly is a brand of feminine hygiene products (read period), which are organic and environmentally friendly. Their packaging consists of recycled, biodegradable plastic and cardboard, and the products are made of organic cotton. They operate a subscription business model, meaning that you can tailor your box to your needs on a monthly basis and not bother running to the shop. This is extra handy during the Covid-19 pandemic as oftentimes the shelves at shops and pharmacies are full of conventional stuff with little to no eco-friendly, kind to your body alternatives. Plus, you get your box through the letterbox. Easy-peasy.
Apart from buying products that use chemical free and organic fabrics, recycled plastic is now rising in popularity, and personally, I think it is the way to go. We produce more plastic than we can cope with, that is why it is so important to recycle what we already have.
Vivaia: Vivaia make women’s shoes from recycled PET bottles from the ocean, with addition of vegan leather, natural rubber and latex. The shoes are super comfortable to wear as they are soft and adapt to the shape of your foot. Their packaging is fully recyclable and they do not use any plastic to package their products. Vivaia is my personal choice and I hardly wear any other shoes now.
Next, the choice is yours. I really wanted to write this post to raise the awareness about the issues that the ocean conservationists are facing on the daily basis. But I also wanted to give you some insights on how to help address these issues, where to look for solutions. While it will require determination and further research, I hope I gave you a jump-start – a desire to act, to make better choices and change your ways of living. In fact, it will probably take a while to break the old habits and create the new. But as long as I got you thinking, my mission is accomplished.
Have you been thinking of starting your own website or blog but unsure which web hosting to choose? Having a blog or a website can have a huge environmental impact on the planet. But thankfully there are greener alternatives!

"Using some of the models that Baby Boomers are trending towards in employment, caregiving, grand-parenting, volunteering, exercises and spirituality may moderate potential generational tension working towards some of the economic issues that could be forthcoming. On the other hand, I tend to think any negatives will be overcome by the innovations of a multi-generational workforce and retention of the organizational knowledge of older workers remaining in the workforce being shared. Additionally, innovations that were created and marketed for the Baby Boomers' — since they were babies and children — will continue through old age. Moreover, new technologies …
Old age should not be dismissed as an accounting of the costs of aging; but one where elderhood is understood by society; that older adults contribute to the community, to the caring and acculturation of children, the wisdom and stewardship to others and society, and yes at some point, needing assistance from others. For this pure reciprocal relationship, older adults must feel needed and wanted as contributing members of their society. That is our challenge, isn't it!"

said W3C CEO Jeff Jaffe"
There is little debate that biometrics are more secure than passwords. Virtually all smartphone manufacturers have made biometrics the default authentication method. We report regularly of passwords and other user information that have been stolen or leaked. Despite repeated warnings, some users still use weak passwords like "password" or "123456."
could lead to a lifetime of regret!
There's gonna be one point where a kid is going to run up to an older adult and ask, "You had to actually have and remember passwords?That's crazy!rds?
The article talks about using biometrics and USB security keys. What happens if the security key is stolen or lost?
If websites can force stronger password requirements but don't even though it's one of the simplest and easiest things anybody could to do then why is the W3C expecting website designers/administrators to sign-on to this Open Authorization standard?
That was the first thing I started thinking too...Part of a 2FA schema the risk would be reduced like Burty suggests, but like you said, biometrics tend to be something you can't change...

Mark Carney to hand notes of pre-Brexit vote talks with chancellor to MPs
MPs on Treasury select committee accuse Bank of England governor of ‘phoney forecasts’ during run-up to EU referendum
Tue 12 Jul 2016 09.55 EDT First published on Tue 12 Jul 2016 09.39 EDT
Mark Carney denies political bias during EU referendum campaign
Bank of England was warned about Brexit property fund problems
Tyrie, a Conservative MP, told Carney that the accusations, if true, would be a “very robust assault on the Bank’s credibility” and also of the independence from government it was granted in 1997 that could not be recovered under the Canadian’s tenure.
Carney said he had held private meetings with George Osborne before the 23 June vote. He agreed that the MPs could appoint someone to review the notes of those meetings but said he would be reluctant for them to be made public.
Carney was also asked by Jacob Rees-Mogg, a prominent Brexit campaigner, whether the Bank should be, like Caesar’s wife, beyond suspicion in terms of being influenced by politicians. The governor, who said politicians had sought to inform him rather than influence him, replied: “Those who cast it [the independence] into question should consider their motivations and their judgments.”
Carney, who was asked by Tyrie whether he had been swaying policymakers inside the Bank to adopt the view of George Osborne who campaigned to remain, said: “We have an obligation to give these assessments.
The accusations were “extraordinary” said Carney.
Asked about the Bank’s warnings before the 23 June vote, Carney said: “Things have changed. We don’t keep things under wraps. We don’t look to have exchange rate crises, we look to have exchange rate adjustments.”
The former chancellors that Tyrie referred to are Lord Lamont, the chancellor at the time of the exchange rate mechanism crisis in 1992, and Lord Lawson. The two peers, together with ex-party leaders Iain Duncan Smith and Michael Howard, wrote to the Daily Telegraph during the referendum campaign to criticise the Bank and Treasury officials.
After seven years, the monetary policy committee may have to make a change
Other members of the FPC also gave evidence following the publication last week of the half-yearly assessment of financial risks, which warned of the risk of a shock to commercial property prices, and also relaxed bank capital rules to make it easier for them to lend another £150bn to households and small businesses.
MPs also asked about a congressional report that showed thbillions of dollars after
Carney said the Bank did not have discussions with US judicial authorities. But he added: “Central banking authorities, when there are serious cases of misconduct, consult with their foreign peers to discuss the financial stability implications.”
The governor said the move to ease bank capital rules was intended to address “potential concerns about credit supply. This is not 2007/8/9. The risk environment has shifted, we’re in a situation of increased uncertainty. How long that will last is a subject of debate. During this period there may be reductions in credit demand, reductions in risk taking”.
But, Carney said, it was not a “silver bullet” and demand for credit would depend on the economy.

and used their advice to round up some highly rated units.
Summer is well underway, and if you live in a warm or humid climate, having an air conditioner is a great way to stay cool. There are plenty of AC configurations out there, including window air conditioning units, air coolers and portable units. If you don’t want the stress and hassle of installing a unit, which is easier to set up and can be moved throughout your space, experts told us, we consulted cooling and appliance experts to help you find the right model for your space, plus used their advice to round up some top-rated recommendations.
Here are our top picks for portable air conditioner units, which are designed for easy installation and portability. We’ve highlighted their cooling power, the size of room they’re fit for (according to the brand) and their hose type, whether single or dual. All of the portable air conditioners we recommendhis portable air conditioner from Shinco has three modes to choose from: cooling, dehumidifying and fan. The unit weighs 62 pounds and has both an LED display and remote that you can use to control it, plus a timer that you can set for up to 24 hours. It has a 4.2-star average rating from more than 1,600 Amazon reviews.
Relatively compact, this portable air conditioner weighs just under 53 pounds. It has an adjustable fan that can cool the air down to 65 degrees Fahrenheit as well as ventilation and dehumidifying features. It’s easy to install, according to the brand, and it has a 4.4-star average rating from more than 36,000 Amazon reviewers.
With 14,000 BTUs of cooling power (the most of any single-hose portable air conditioner on this list), this portable AC is designed to cool a room up to 700 square feet in size, De’Longhi says. The brand also says it will auto-adjust the temperature depending on the humidity levels in the room, and it has dehumidifying and fan features in addition to its cooling features. The De’Longhi has a 4.1-star average rating from 1,700 reviews on Amazon.
The Honeywell HF0CESVWK6 can connect via Wi-Fi tcan control it from anywhere in your home. The HF0CESVWK6 weighs just under 63 pounds, and you can use your voice to power on the machine, as well as change the temperature and adjust fan speed30 Amazon reviews.
This Wi-Fi-enabled Midea portable air conditioner seems to have been designed with convenience in mind: It can be controlled via a smartphone app or paired with Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant to respond to voice commands. With 10,000 BTUs of cooling power, it can cool a room up to 200 square feet with a temperature range between 62 degrees Fahrenheit and 90 degrees Fahrenheit, according to Midea. It also comes with a 24-hour adjustable timer. The Midea has a 4.2-star average rating from nearly 2,000 Amazon reviews.
With the De’Longhi app, you can control this portable air conditioner from your phone,air conditioner can also be used as a fan, dehumidifier and heater in the colder months. It has a 4.1-star average rating from more than 250 Amazon reviews.
Whynter’s conditioner, the ARC-14S, has three operational modes — air conditioning unit, dehumidifier and fan — and a 24-hour timer. It’s also the only dual-hose model on this list. We chose it for its 4.2-star average rating from more than 10,500 Amazon reviews, more than any other dual-hose portable air conditioning unit we could find.
Free-standing air conditioners are a pricier alternative to window units. However, they’re much easier to install and are typically more compact, so you can move the unit from room to room without much effort, noted John McKeon, MD,a and allergy-friendly,” among other things.
An air conditioner’s cooling abile powerful the air conditioner is. On average, an air conditioning unit needs about 20 BTUs per square foot of space to keep things cool, said McKeon. It’s important to find a model that’s efficient for your space, but keep in mind that more BTUs isn’t always better.
“Using an AC with the right amount of power is extremely important,” Prouty said. “A unit that is too powerful will cool the room too quickly. This is bad for two reasons: it won’t do an efficient job of dehumidifying the room and it will cycle on and off too frequently, causing undue stress on the AC, which will cause it to break down prematurely.” On the other hand, a unit that’s not powerful enough won’t cool the room down — it’ll just run continuously, meaning your energy bill will be much higher than it would have been had you bought a portable AC that was the appropriate size, and it’ll break down early, too.
According to Prouty, if you plan on putting your portable AC unit in a sunny space, you should add about 10% to the ideal number of BTUs based on the room’s size. If the room gets little to no sun, you’ll need about 10% less, he added. If there are more than two people typically occupying the room, you’ll need to add 600 BTUs for each additional person, and if it’s going in a kitchen, you’ll need to add 4,000 BTUs to “counteract the additional heat [that] kitchen appliances produce,” Prouty noted.
Portable air conditioners typically runamount of features.
Portable air conditioners either come with a single hose or double hose. Single hose models, which are more common, pull stagnant air from inside your room, cooling and recirculating it throughout. Dual-hose units, on the other hand, have one air exhaust hose and another that pulls fresh air from outside.
Some portable air conditioners equip smart technology and can be controlled via smartphone, though these models will typically cost more.
Certain models come with added built-in features, like a dehumidifier, heater or air purifier.
Most units are self-evaporating, which reduces the need to drain water regularly from the unit.
Keep in mind your portable air conditioner needs proximity to a window and electrical outlet. These models also require some simple maintenance, including draining the water from the unit as needed and replacing the air filters every couple of weeks. This will help avoid mold growth in your unit, which can decrease your room’s air quality, said McKeon.

You had better get out to the local supermarket like everyone else in town and clear the shelves because a storm is coming. It has always cracked me up that when the news is calling for any decent amount of snow people treat it like an apocalypse. I on the other hand amin it as an adventure! I get bundled up, put on my war paint, clear the foot of snow off my car and battle traffic with terrible drivers just to get hot chocolate and feminine hygiene products for the wife. If you are a dude, you’ve been there. It helps if you have a capable winter vehicle, not only for getting around but for having fun. If it’s the first snow of the year though, you had better be careful because no matter where you live everybody forgets how to drive in the snow over the summer. There are many factors in making a car a good snowman killer but what if you live somewhere where even the most badass four-wheel-drive wont get you to where you need to go?
I realize some of you who are reading this may not live where in areas that see snow in the winter time and I feel kind of bad for you. I say kind of because the older I get the less I like clearing my driveway and the sidewalks at my office but it is fun to drive in, with the right vehicle anyways. Snow makes driving a whole different world, it’s like driving on another planet in some ways. Everything is slick and frozen. I feel like growing up in a place with adverse weather conditions helped make me a better driver. I was lucky enough to have a first vehicle that was capable of travel in the snowy weather, a four-wheel-drive pickup truck. It taught me how to drive a rear-wheel-drive vehicle in the snow but with a quick pull of a leaver I had 4×4 capability to get me out of trouble. I am pretty sold on all-wheel-drive cars but there is something different about a 4×4 pickup in the snow. They really do feel unstoppable plowing through 4 ft drifts. AWD cars are very impressive, especially with snow tires but they just aren’t the same when you get into the really deep stuff where you need the ground clearance. They also don’t care about curbs or any other wheel damaging objects that are hard to see when covered in the frozen stuff.
In areas of the country, or world for that matter, that get large amounts of snow there are better means of transportation than 4wd trucks or awd cars. Vehicles like the snowcat are how people get to and from remote locations with feet of snow on the ground. A snow cat is a big box with tank treads that can pretty much make its own road up the side of a snow covered mountain! Some of the first iterations of the snow cats were based off of model Ts and had tracks in the back with skis up front, think snow half track. The driver was exposed to the elements in a bucket seat similar to an old tractor. It wasn’t until the 1930s and 40’s that companies like Tucker and Bombardier started manufacturing enclosed units. The first tucker models kept the ski motif upfront but later replaced them with set of tracks. Thiokol was another popular brand that was bought by John Delorean and sold under the DMC brand, the same brand responsible for Marty’s sweet stainless time traveller.
The old Tuckers look pretty sweet with the set of tracks at all four corners that move independently of each other. The older ones are said to be as easy to work on as an old carbureted pickup as a lot of them used common axles, transmissions, and engines found in road vehicles. Past the transmissions though, they were a whole different animal and take a knowledgeable person with the right tools to work on. They were powered by everything from air-cooled Volkswagen 4 cylinders to Chrysler V-8s but the most common engines in the older models were AMC and Ford straight sixes. The new standard for the smaller heavier duty cats is the Cummins inline four cylinder turbo diesel. The larger units like the PistenBully 600 Polar are powered by a 500 plus horsepower 11.8L Cummins turbo diesel and are a far cry from the snowcats of yesteryear. They are packed with technology and are more capable than ever. Many nowadays are used for ski resort maintenance, search and rescue, and remote municipality work. There are jamborees and everything for enthusiasts to get together and show off their snowcats. Some groups even get together for trail rides just like those inferior Jeep clubs!
Another option for extreme snow travel is the snowmobile. Many places get so much snow having a snowmobile is essential for getting arounda big ol snowcat. Not to mention, they look like a blast! The snowmobile has come a long way from its first iterations which were just toboggans with a track on them. The most popular ones had raised seats and were powered by Indian motorcycle engines or modifies outboards. These early versions were pretty primitive but it was the early 1900s, everything was primitive back then. It took a while to get companies to start manufacturing useable snowmobiles and one of the big names to emerge is still one of the biggest today, Polaris. Their first models were big and slow weighing in at 1,000 lbs and would run 20 mph flat out but it marked the beginning of the design for modern day snowmobiles. Bombardier, also a builder of snowcats, jumped in the game about the same time and is still a popular choice amongst buyers today.
Today there are quite a few choices out there for snowmobile enthusiasts with offerings from Bombardier, Arctic Cat, Yamaha, and Polaris. Obviously today’s sleds provide more performance than ever before. The first sleds offered as little as 5 hp and most sleds through history have been 2 stroke engines. The 4 stroke engine has gained popularity over the past 15 to 20 years and make some serious power for a small single person machine. Todays snowmobiles make in excess of 150 hp with some making 180+ hp with 1,000 cc engines. That’s before turbocharging which is offered on some of the newer sleds! My 1996 Subaru that I drive daily only has 135 hp, well at least when it was new. Snowmobiles are more capable that ever with new track designs, better weight distribution, and power. They are used for everything from competitive racing series to modes of transportation in areas where they are essential tools for one’s survival. There are very few places these machines can’t get you when the snow piles up and if you live somewhere that sees feet of snow every season they really are a necessity.
I have never lived somewhere that gets so much snow you have to use a tracked vehicle to get somewhere and as much of an adventure as that sounds I dont think its for me. I mean I like some snow to play in but there is no way I could live somewhere that gets feet of snow that’s on the ground for more than 6 months a year or year round for that matter. I suppose if you grow up in a place like that it’s all you know. On the flip side of that I miss the big snow storms we got when I was younger. Maybe it’s just me but it sure feels like the storms were bigger back then. I remember going out with my Grandpa and my dad in one of their trucks and we would look for the steepest hills we could find and see if the truck would go up it and it always would. We would plow through snow drifts that were big enough to hide cars in. I still like to go out and check out the storm to this day. It’s almost become a bit of a tradition! From all of us here at Gearbox go get bundled up, have some fun, and keep the shiny side up!

This greenish, jade-like rectangular stone, two feet long, 1 foot wide and tall, radiates immense magical power. TI is engraved with a Celtic knot design that crisscrosses the stone in multiple directions. The lines of carved depictions of knots separate the stone into equal sections, each fully symmetric with each other.

Houses & Festival Days
Students Empowered to Lead a new Upper School community. The principle manage their experience at WCA.
This program is based on the "house" concept, a long-standing tradition in both colleges and boarding schools. In that model, the group with which a student is associated is based on the residence or house in which that student lives. Individual houses have their own elected leadership, charters, and traditions.
The model WCA uses is based on the same premise, though without dormitories. Students in grades 6-12 are all placed into one of four houses: Arcola, Hewitt, Hampshire, and Franwall. Each house is named after each of the street names WCA has had since its beginning back in 1960.
The House Program gives each of our Upper School students the chance to step up to student leadership and responsibility. Byudents have a richer, fuller experience of life at WCA. It also allows for mentoring from faculty, who are also members of the houses. The program enables students to have a higher sense of ownership in school life and a greater voice in creating the future of WCA.

have carried over intact, if not improved. The new MDX goes largely unchanged in 2008.
on.
All of the 2008 Acura
Based on 29SgtBimmer on Thursday, June 243,000overall rating 7 of 10rating details
Pros: "engine power, reliability"
Cons: "door panels are horrible, interior overall cheap"
"I drive with my left elbow on the drivers door side panel. The result has been an indentation on the top of door panel. This is unacceptable for a 50k SUV!!!!!!!. I have replaced this twice under warranty and was given a hard time by the dealership. I'm done with Japanese cars…going back to German imports!!!!!!!!…. They make great engines, but their interiors and customer service is horrible and always has been!!!!!..BTW I've owned 6 (J) imports and 3 (G) imports."
By Rob A. on Tuesday, April 26, 2016
"Had this Acura MDX for 5 years - Good handling and comfort. Not good on fuel mileage 17 city and 21 on hwy with the 3.7 liter V-6 with the 6 speed transmission. The new MDX-SH models are 9 speed with a 3.5 liter V-6, Better fuel mileage 21 & 27 !!"
By Dude from Boston on Monday, February 15, 2016
Pros: "Dependability, comfort"
Cons: "Gas mileage, Needs Premium fuel"
"The Acura MDX is my favorite of all the cars I have owned. I've had Toyota's, Honda's and some not so great American cars over the years. It's so reliable. It was worth every penny I paid for it. I take good care of it with regular maintenance (oil changes, other fluids, etc.) I just reached 103K and it's still going strong. I bought it with 45K on it and it was a very good decision. I hope to keep itdependable SUV. The gas mileage is not the best, but it is a good size vehicle, so it pretty much gives me what I expected. The only other complaint I have is it does require Premium fuel. I have tried to use regular or mid grad, but it just does not run as well. It's worth it to use the suggested premium fuel. I rarely have 7 passengers, but I know I could if I need the room. It's great for hauling people or things."
By lorettaM on Thursday, December 31, 2015
Pros: "great car. no complaints."
"again, this has been a very reliable car. New tires over this year and a new battery in the last 12 months, very reliable, clean good shape, the only thing that is not working is the cd player. it does have xm and you can plug in an mp3 player. has a hitch and rack."

In response to the Daily Post writing prompt on March 2, 2013
Forests are filled with life. The scent, color, and details call to me.
Mountains are wonderful places that can contain several different climates and experiences.
But home is where I want to be…
Family – ironically, I don’t spend a ton of time with family outside of my wife. I see my mom once a week, and my brother and his family much less frequently. My dad retired to another state and we see him once or twice a year, and my wife’s family is a couple of hours away. But being close to my mom is important to me. I want to be here for her, and it’s nice knowing that she’s here for us as well.
I’ll take home over any other place, any day of the week. Sure, it’s fun to go other places, but home is where my heart lives.
Love this picture!!! It reminds me of my own happy place!

If any of the sounds represented by the square or triangle coordinates are applied to the subject's ear, the subject will hear it without amplification.
[0086] The goal of the system is to amplify the faint audible sounds (triangles F) of the impaired ear and to amplify sounds that are below threshold (small dots E) into the residual dynamic range (F+G) of the subject. The system does not aim to drive the transducer by any coordinate (voltage) that is depicted in by the squares. This is the area where the hearing impaired subject can hear adequately without amplification.
[0087] The ear-level hearing device of this exemplifying embodiment is controlled by a hand held computer (smart phone) with a graphical user interface designed to determine a subject's own hearing threshold, or quietest sound that an individual can hear. Hardware includes the smart phone, the viewing screen of the smart phone, smart phone software, the ear level hearing device, a transmitter on the smart phone and a receiver on the ear level device to providon the smart phone to the ear level hearing device.
[0088] The interface software on the smart phone shall provide a graphical user interface (GUI), e.g. with touch screen buttons, or any other, particularly automatic, means to vary the frequency (psychoacoustic parameter is pitch) and amplitude (psychoacoustic parameter is loudness) presentation to the earpiece. Software installed on the hand-held smart phone system shall send wireless, e.g. Bluetooth, signals to the ear level device that shall change the acoustic parameters in the listening device.
[0090] The combination hearing system comprises the ear-level hearing device and the smart phone works. These work in tandem to derive a hearing impaired subject's thresholds. These thresholds are measured in terms of the voltage needed to drive the transducer to the threshold SPL. In other words, the system does not measure the actual SPL inside the canal; rather, it measures the voltage of the transducer needed to reach a subject's thresholds. From these threshold values, the system software sets a target output that is halfway between threshold and the uncomfortable level of the subject. The system then amplifies sounds that are below threshold and also faint audible sounds to within the upper part of the residual dynamic range of the listener. Various speech spectra, all lying within the residual dynamic range of the listener, are then presented in order to confirm intelligibility, comfort and pleasantness.
[0091] Ithereof as presented hereinbefore. Instead a skilled person may easily deviseand without requiring him to exercise any inventive skill.

Belgium has a unique reputation in the area of medical treatments. The specialists, specialised centres and medical treatments are among the world’s very best. Patients from every continent can be treated here, irrespective of their religion, race or personal beliefs. Now, how exactly can you benefit from the country’s medical excellence?
Belgium’s health servicet. With 4 doctors per 1,000 inhabitants, Belgium is well above the OECD 2.9 average. In 2016, the Belgian healthcare system has even been ranked 4th among 35 countries in Europeis is the highest score since the index was introduced in 2015 and proof that Belgium keeps investing in qualitative healthcare.
The Belgian system focusses on excellent service and aims to help everyone with any kind of medical problem. As a result, people are not afraid to seek help and have quick access to the care they need. Patient rights and information, treatment outcomes and range of services also reached a remarkably high score.
Furthermore, it is important to note that most doctors and medical staff speak other languages such as English very well, which strengthens the claim that Belgian healthcare is among the best in Europe, and perhaps even in the world. For languages that are not covered by medical staff, we can provide qualified and discrete interpreters.
One of the main reasons Belgium is able to maintain its leading position as to qualitative treatments, is the continuous investment in medical research. A great example is the Centre for Reproductive Medicine in Brussels. Their research field concerns, amongst others, reproductive genetics and reproductive immunology. Each year, they bring out up to 70 scientific publications, revealing important findings and improving fertility treatments even further and will always be extensively discussed with your doctor.

No matter how many times I travel the highway connecting San Jose Del Cabo with the East Cape, I am stunned by the stark beauty and tranquility. About twenty minutes into the drive, I can feel myself slipping into that state of mind best described as "laid back". It's difficult to fully relax though, knowing you are so close to the fishing!
By the end of Day 2 it's obvious we have splendid bait but fishing is slow. The team of Connole & McKinnon, out of Newport Beach, take the lead with 1340 points. They have two decent yellowfin tuna topping the scales at over 40 pounds each. Later that evening I l.earn that Dan Connole has had stomach surgery just eight days ago. I'm wincing just thinking about reeling in a 40 pound tuna with stitches in my gut. No Thanks. They also pick up a couple of nice dorado on yellow and green Proven Pattern feathers while trolling for tuna. After bribing them with several rounds at the bar, they reveal to me that they also took the tuna on black and purple Proven Pattern feathers about 30 miles outside, ...
Of course, no article about fishing can end without irony. As we were packing our van for the return trip to the airport at San Jose Del Cabo on Tuesday, we were interrupted by a radio message. Mike Aktins, enjoying a well deserved break, was fishing south of Cabo Pulmo when he ran into boiling yellowfin tuna. He was headed back to the hotel before noon, with six nice tuna that he estimated would tip the scales at 40 plus pounds. Two days after the end of the tournament the tuna had migrated to just offshore and much closer to the hotel. We were tempted to cancel our flight and remain another day or two, or three, or ....

MARYLAND’S FINAL WISH GOES AMISS
MINNEAPOLIS – From the school of, “Be careful what you wish for …”the Maryland Terrapins got the team they wanted in the national semifinals last night – Duke.
And for the third time this season, the Terrapins left the game with the loss. This one, however, ended their season.
“Today, it really hurts,” said Maryland coach Gary Williams. “I give Duke all the credit to battle back like they did. They have a couple of great players that are really tough in tough situations and they won the game.”
But as has been the case in all four meetings between these Atlantic Coast Conference rivals, the team that leads at halftime loses. Duke stormed back with a 57-point second half to obliterate the Terps 95-84.
“Nobody’s better than 22 on Duke,” said Williams. “We played great to get that 22-point lead. I knew they’d make a run. I thought we had enough to sustain it. We got into some foul trouble. They did a great job oSo now the Terps can wonder which defeat is more stinging. They led Duke by 10 with 54 seconds left Duke won it 98-96 in overtime.
Duke goes on. Maryland goes home.
Never before has a team trailed by 11 at halftime of an NCAA Tournament national semifinal and come back to win. The Terps said all week they wanted Duke. They got Duke. They got Duke down.
Sadly, it’s exactly what the Terps wanted.

The latest63 percent of respondents predicting a recession soon.
Amid talks of slowdown and recession, Amazon founder and Blue Origin Chief Executive Officer Jeff Bezos has also spoken about the impending economic downturn. Sharing a video of Goldman Sachs chief executive David Solomon stating that there is a good chance of a recession in the coming months, Bezos said the probabilities in the market point to a coming recession.wrote.S,” Solomon said in the interview with CNBC.
Bezos and Solomon are part of a wider group of business leaders, experts and analysts who are expecting the US economy, and consequently the world, to witness an economic downturn. A new Bloomberg Economics model projection found the US in the next 12 months. Jim Rogers, an , said that a large amount of debt in the world could make the coming economic downturn the worst he had ever seen, in an interview with Business Today.
World Bank President David Malpass recently added the world was “dangerously close to a global recession” and cautioned nations to aim for targeted assistance for the poo -- I mean, Europe is already in recession --BC in an interview.
Citigroup CEO Jane Fraser was much more aggressive in her prediction of a recession, stating that the world is going to “experience rolling country-level recession starting this quarter” while expecting the US to see a “mild recession in the second half of 2023”.
Economists like Nouriel Roubini, who had been one of the first experts to predict the 2008 global financial crisis, have also warned of a “severe, long and ugly” recession in the coming months.

Customers had complained on social media in recent months of longer waiting times, cancellations and higher fares during peak hours as workers avoided public transit during the pandemic. Uber needs about 20,000 more drivers to help return service to normal after demand rose 20% following the end of lockdown.
A trip from Paddington Station to Mayfair’s Berkeley Square was quoted at more than 11 pounds ($15) by Uber just after 10 a.m. on Thursday. A black cab was quoted at 11 to 14 pounds for the same journey on Free Now, a competing app.
Uber customers traveling from Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton and Stansted airports will face an additional 15% increase in fares at peak times. The rises were first reported by the Evening Standard newspaper Wednesday.
