It's a good think it's choice day because I have to update all of you. I'll start with the good news. My baby girl (16yrold) got in to Perpich School of Arts for the next school year. She will be in the dance department studying dance for half the day and having regular high school classes for the other half. They loved her dance parts of the audition, there were two. One where they focused on technique and had the dancers do different moves in a class setting and they also learned a modern dance to perform as a group. Part two was her solo. They loved her song selection and all the emotion she put into her dance. Cassie said it was about her fighting against all that say she can't do things and this was showing them she can. really fitting considering all that has happened to her in dance class this year. She danced to Sia – Breath me, this first 1:20 of it. Ending on a perfect double open turn with attitude. Last they did an interview. They loved her bubbly personality and how much she loves dance. I guess this sealed it. She left this day of auditions positive and sure she was in, but after waiting from March 1o to April 19, I was starting to think she was going to get bad news. It was great to get this piece of good news the day I went into the hospital.
Now for the bad news. Yes, I was in the hospital for 4 days again for the same reason. The pancreatitis never really went away from my last stay in the hospital. I was still unable to handle the pain (I get mine in my back and not in my tummy where most people get theirs) and I was not holding down enough foods or liquids. I find it really hard to drink even water when I feel like I need to vomit.
The worst part is they have no idea what is causing it; lupus, a clogged duct, stones, gull bladder… No idea. I'm on a soft food diet which means soups, pudding, ice cream, yogurt, jello, cream of wheat, white toast, etc. I have to do this until my EUS scan in 3-4 weeks because the pancreas cannot be inflamed when they do the scan. The diet is to keep it from doing that. After the scan, if they still don't know what's wrong, I will still be on a very restricted diet to keep it from acting up. It doesn't sound like fun…. No red meat, no ruffage – salads, uncooked veggies, whole wheat products – I just don't know how I can be healthy eating this way.
What I need from my friends is juicing ideas. I have a juicer that I borrowed from my aunt and I can use this to get my veggies, but I need recipes that taste good. This is from someone who really doesn't like strong veggie taste. Please respond, tweet, Facebook or email your recipes and ideas!!! I need them all so I can be healthy!!

MONA Wants to Fly You and Your Mates to Tasmania on Your Own Plane for Mona Foma 2020
The catch? You have to fill all of the 150 seats.
MONA Wants to Fly You and Your Mates to Tasmania on Your Own Plane for Mona Foma 2020
The catch? You have to fill all of the 150 seats.
October 04, 2019
MONA's summer festival Mona Foma is returning to Launceston this summer — and so is its airline, Air Mofo. After its debut last year, the 'private airline' will once again be on standby to usher guests from the mainland to Tasmania for the 2020 event in serious style — for free.
The catch? You don't just get a seat on the purple and yellow Boeing 737 — you get the whole plane. So you'll have 149 seats to fill with your nearest and dearest, and basically anyone else who's free on the main festival weekend of January 17–19. The plane will leave from either Melbourne or Sydney, and everyone on board will be get free return airfares and a three-day festival pass.
It goes without saying, you can expect more than just your average in-flight entertainment on-board. Your flight down south will be filled with all sorts of performances and is promising to be 'suitably lit'.
To enter, you'll have to do some detective work and pinpoint the Air Mofo plane on this map of Tassie. While clues will start going up on the Mona Foma website from today, you'll have to wait until next Thursday, October 10 to enter. First person to find it wins the trip. Then, they'll have just a month to organise their 149 guests.
Air Mofo is once again a collaboration between Mona Foma and Tourism Tasmania, and the prize is valued at a whopping $99,000.
The summer arts and music fest will take over Launceston from January 11–19. At the moment, the lineup has DJ and producer Flying Lotus coming in to Launnie from LA and a performance from classical musician Ludovico Einaudi — but the full thing will be announced on Friday, October 18.
Three-day festival passes are also on sale now — this year priced at $129 for the weekend. And, if you're looking for other ways to enjoy the festival's new surrounds, check out our weekender's guide to Launceston during Mona Foma.
Mona Foma 2020 will take over Launceston, Tasmania from January 11–19. Enter the competition over here.

I'm picking up where I left off with spring cleaning the kitchen. I'm on task 5 in week 2 of the kitchen cleaning checklist. I had already cleaned 1 of 2 cupboards for that task, so today, I just needed to clean 1 more.
We are fortunate to have a neat pull-out drawer for our garbage and recycling. However, I think we all have some seriously bad aim when we're throwing things away because the inside of this drawer gets nasty.
For a slew of before and after pictures, check out these posts from February 2009.

Jose Padilla For Dummies
Anyway, here's a (hopefully) plain-English version of what's been happening in this case.
In May 2002, US citizen Jose Padilla was arrested on US soil, designated an "enemy combatant," and put into military custody.
Padilla challenged the government's decision to hold him without charges, apparently indefinitely, and argued that he can't be considered an "enemy combatant" and deprived due process rights afforded to any other citizen arrested. The challenge is brought in a federal District Court in the 2nd Circuit, which includes Chicago (where Padilla was arrested). Padilla's challenge is brought through a "Petition for a writ of habeas corpus," and not a lawsuit for damages against the goverment, or an action for "declaratory judgment," where he would ask the judiciary to declare the executive's "enemy combatant" policy unconstitutional (either on its face or as applied to him). The 2d Circuit rules against the government.
The Supreme Court vacates the 2d Circuit decision, not on the merits of the argument, but on the grounds that the 2d Circuit was not the proper location for the suit. Padilla re-files the habeas petition in a District Court in the 4th Circuit.
The District Court in the new suit rules in favor of the government. However, no trial on the facts was held; it was a decision only on the legal issue of whether Padilla could be held as an "enemy combatant." For purposes of this decision, the court assumed that all of the government's allegations about Padilla were true.
Padilla appealed to the 4th Circuit which upheld the district court. Again, there was no decision on the truth of the government's claims regarding Padilla's terrorist ties or activity, as Padilla was claiming that even if everything the government said was true, they were still not entitled to hold him indefinitely without charges.
Just a few weeks after the 4th Circuit certifies its order as a "final decision," Padilla files a request for the Supreme Court to review the 4th Circuit's decision (known as a petition for a writ of certiorari). This is where the gamesmanship begins.
Before the government replies to Padilla's appeal request, it gets an indictment against him in a Florida federal court. The charges bear little relation to the story the government told the courts when it was arguing that Padilla was an "enemy combatant" whom they could detain indefinitely.
Shortly after Padilla is indicted, the Justice Dept. files its brief with the Supreme Court arguing that it should not take Padilla's appeal because the case is now moot. The government argues that because Padilla was seeking a writ of habeas corpus, he no longer has a claim, as the government no longer wants to hold him as an enemy combatant.
While the appeal request is pending in the Supreme Court, the DoJ asks the 4th Circuit to approve Padilla's transfer from military custory to civilian custody, and to vacate the decision in its favor. The DoJ states that they no longer need or want to hold Padilla as an enemy combatant, and since he has been indicted, he should be transferred to the civilian jail to await trial. The most reasonable interpretation of the DoJ's request that the 4th Circuit vacate a ruling in the executive's favor, is that they did not want the constitutionality of their program decided by the Supreme Court, and were trying to render the case moot.
In their reply brief, Padilla's lawyers agree that he should be transferred to civilian jail, and argue that the case won't be rendered moot by such a transfer:
Padilla believes the appropriate course of action is for this Court to order his immediate transfer to civilian custody, and to defer action on the question of whether to recall the mandate until after the Supreme Court disposes of his petition for certiorari, which is currently scheduled to be considered in early January.
The 4th Circuit then generates a tsunami of confused headlines and analysis when it denies the request both parties had made, to transfer Padilla. The court was not happy when it saw Padilla's indictments, which bore little resemblance to the allegations the government had made when justifying its designation of Padilla as an "enemy combatant." Nothing about "dirty bombs," for example. So, the 4th circuit came right out and said, in essence: "We no longer think you're being honest about why you needed to hold Jose Padilla for years without charges or a trial, and it's obvious you're trying to keep the Supreme Court from looking into that, by making the issue moot. So we're not going to cooperate, and keep him where he is, so that the Supreme Court can deal with this."
Now, the problem with this is that the 4th circuit was almost certainly wrong about their conclusion; keeping Padilla in military detention against the will of the people holding him was not likely to affect whether his habeas petition was moot, one way or the other. In my opinion, the 4th circuit knew this as well, but wanted to send a clear message to the DoJ and the Supreme Court, that the government was acting in bad faith, and should not be allowed to avoid having its actions reviewed -right now-.
So, the government appealed this order to the Supreme Court, asking it to approve Padilla's transfer. Importantly, they conceded in a brief that transferring Padilla now would not render his case moot. They argued that if it was moot, it was moot when they wanted to let him go. Holding him in military custody now or transferring him would not affect his appeal to the Supreme Court:
Granting the application [to transfer Padilla] will not prejudice this Court's consideration of Padilla's petition for certiorari. It would, however, eliminate the anomaly of a citizen being held by the military against the wishes of both the Executive and the detainee. . .On this point, the government was right, and yesterday the Supreme Court agreed.
In agreeing to transfer Padilla, the Supreme Court did not discuss the mootness issue, or make any ruling on Padilla's request for an appeal, which will be considered later this month. In short, this is a very inconsequential order, and it is not, as certain law professors have claimed, either a setback for Padilla, or a repudiation of the 4th Circuit's assessment of the government's conduct. The Justice Dept. has agreed that transferring Padilla now won't prejudice his appeal request. And that's about as straightforward as it can get: Padilla wanted out, the DoJ wanted him out, and the 4th circuit was wrong that transferring him would affect his chances to get his appeal heard.
Reading tea leaves of my own, I expect the Supreme Court will take the appeal. If it does not grant cert., it will NOT be because the issue was rendered moot by their approval of Padilla's transfer to civilian jail now. If it was moot, it was moot when Justice decided they wanted him transferred.
Also, even if Padilla's appeal isn't heard, the government is not off the hook; they've merely bought more time. Padilla most likely can go back and file a damages claim against the government. Because that issue was not involved in his habeas petition, however, he will essentially have to start over from scratch.
So there you have it.

Did you know one reusable wrap can replace more than 1500 pieces of disposable clingfilm in its lifetime? As conscious consumers, we also want to reduce our plastic AND food waste, so start your zero waste journey in your kitchen with our vegan wax food wraps.
These wraps are a great reusable alternative to using disposable clingfilm, and are completely vegan, soy and palm oil free, compostable and plastic free. The waxes are even sourced in the UK to reduce airmiles.
They're really easy to use. Wait until your food has completely cooled, then simply use the warmth of your hand to bend the wrap around your bowl or plate. The slight tackiness of the surface means they stick tight, making a water repellent seal and keeping your leftovers from exposure to the air, meaning they stay fresher for longer!
Caring for your wraps is easy. Try and keep them away from hot food, microwaves and ovens if you want them to last. Simply wash them under cold to luke warm water with a little washing up liquid to keep them clean and hygienic.
How do these vegan wax food wraps compare with beeswax wraps?
Plant waxes have a similar water resistance and tacky feeling to beeswax, making them a perfect replacement. The only difference is their slight shine on the fabric. We felt bees were under enough pressure right now, without us burdening them with our food waste too! Vegans can be reassured that these carry the Viva Vegan stamp, meaning no animal derived ingredients are used.
Each pack contains 3 wraps.
– Large: 30cm x 30cm
– Medium: 25cm x 25cm
– Small: 20cm x 20cm

3/12 – eat + counter-eat:
eat (lunch):
- Friday afternoon started with a lovely co-worker lunch. We decided on the restaurantformerlyknownasHouston's, 'Hillstone'. The options in Midtown East are painfully limited for lunch, for the most part it's either break the bank or painful mediocrity. Although Hillstone is nothing special, the food is consistent. The salad portions are fair, the service is always attentive and for a chain restaurant it's pretty solid.
The order:
- Sashimi Tuna Salad seared rare ahi, mixed greens, avocado, mango, jicama, and miso vinaigrette (on the side) This was satisfying, but nothing too special. There was precious little avocado and the jicama definitely did not make an appearance…but the company was well worth it 🙂 Thanks, Jen!
- Friday's countereat (pre-dinner) including a brutual 1 hour training session at my second home, Equinox. My fantastic trainer Ed threatened me it was time to move to the next level. Mountain climbers while balancing on a bosu ball, somehow propelling myself off the same blue devil bosu ball with a 25 pound weight meant to be lifted overhead from a seated position…it was enough to prompt the member next to me to ask (in horror) "What are YOU DOING to her!? That looks IMPOSSIBLE!?" as sweat poured off me. Yeah, thanks, buddy. At least I was hungry for dinner…
eat (dinner):
Deriving it's meaning from the 'offering' (las ofrenda) given on the Day of the Dead (Dia de los Muertos) in Mexico, Ofrenda offers a nicely priced upscale Mexican cuisine in a small W. Village space. The old "Ostia" is revamped and a lot more appealing to the taste buds in my humble estimation. Replacing the greasy and typical appetizers Ostia offered, Ofrenda has a more imaginative, lighter and cleaner feel to all of it's dishes. The wine pour was generous, and the margarita, although devoid of salt was enjoyable. Fueled by a killer countereat, I was definitely ready to beast on enjoy their wares…
The order:
To share:
Complimentary chips + guacamole-esque 'dip' + bean dip (nothing special, but the bean dip was slightly inventive and better than a typical offering of this variety)
Stuffed crab 'situation' (name is escaping me and menu doesn't appear to be updated online) This was a light crab meat dish that had been combined with some variety of delicious sauce (mayo-based tasting almost) and put back into the shell. It was light (despite the may0-ish shout out) and delicious.
Callitos a la Plancha con Chile Cascabel – pan-seared scallops, sweet potato hash, grilled asparagus, cascabel pepper butter sauce (this dish was delicious and light despite the description, and more filling and generous than a typical scallop portion. the flavors went seamlessly together and had you dipping the scallops in just about everything to get all of the tastes simultaneously…<3 when a dish offers that)
Grilled salmon with roasted asparagus and guacamole (this was light, deliciously cooked and very satisfying. i was looking for a healthy option to pair with my 2 glasses of malbec, and this fit the bill perfectly. A huge restaurant pet peeve of mine is excess oil, it shouldn't be a necessity in a delicious dish> The flavor of the salmon was clearly created more with spices than sauces, again, a personal preference)
M & I are already planning our return trip to this budget friendly and delish local spot (the 2 minute walk/proximity doesn't hurt either…) When the weather is nicer I hope they offer the outdoor seating Ostia did, and keep the oil reminiscent of Ostia's dishes at bay. I also hear the brunch is cheap and involves a shot of tequila and sangrita. So I may be saying 'Hola' to that pretty soon as well…

Selling Hope Instead of Fear: Redefining Activism
January 23, 2009
Christiana Wyly
Huffington Post - New York
January 21, 2009
On January 17th, I found myself on the stage at the Green Inaugural Ball in Washington D.C. presenting a short talk I titled: Selling Hope instead of Fear: Redefining Activism.
I believe that the environmental advocacy community can learn much from Obama's example of achieving the impossible, held afloat by the buoyancy of hope. We heard this message emphasized in Obama's Inaugural Address. Below is the body of my talk:
Things are definitely looking good. With our new leadership, for the first time in a long time, we live in a nation alive and energized with hope. Hope has become tangible. Hope has a face and a name. And we can feel it under our skin every morning when we rise to the take on the task of the day.
We, as environmental advocates, are here to celebrate today. We have already achieved the seemingly impossible feat of recruiting millions worldwide to our cause. We've taken "Green" from tie-dye and granola, to Hollywood and Wall Street.
On this momentous occasion I want to celebrate all of us, for our tireless commitment to making this world a better place and to rejoice in our achievements!
We've raised awareness on a wide range of issues, from reducing carbon emissions to recycling our resources, to protecting our children and wildlife.
In the world of business, we have overcome the granola myth through proving that sustainable companies deliver superior returns in the long run. At Satori Capital, where I am a Venture Partner, we believe there are no trade offs when it comes to sustainable behavior and profitability.
Through all of our valiant efforts thus far, we have brought an awareness of climate change to Washington.
But now I also think we are at a crossroads. If were going to take this all the way, and get the support for the policies we need to make the big shifts, we need to rethink our collective approach.
Part of our approach has relied upon instilling fear in others -- using what amounts to scare tactics to provoke changes in behavior. The problem with this approach is that it causes many to shut down and react instead of motivating them to give support. This can't be the solution as we move forward. Its time for us to expand the approach.
We're at a point where we need to ask more questions and we really need to listen, We need to listen to the needs and concerns of those who are most resistant to the change we are advocating for.
Certainly the naysayers or those who misunderstand or outright oppose our causes accuse us of fear mongering. But we are in fact fearful, aren't we? Terrified might be a better way to put it.
Were scared because we've done the homework, We can't turn on a light switch without feeling the ripple effect all the way back to a coal mine in West Virginia. Call it a curse of awareness. It can seem like no one wants to hear it; no one wants that burden. And can you blame them? After 8 years of the previous administration, the collective psyche of our nation is traumatized!
We're terrified of terrorists, and economic collapse. We are afraid of not having health care or social security. Climate change is too far away, too big, too complicated and too abstract to connect to our light bulbs.
So how do we persevere? How do we communicate to exactly those people who push the mute button on the remote when we are presenting our flip charts on the latest increase in C02?
I went to hear the Dalai Lama speak recently, and his message was clear "We need people to act from a place of GLOBAL RESPONSIBILITY" I couldn't agree more. Those of us in this room are the ones putting these words into practice, making every choice from that place of Global Care and Compassion.
However, when I think about the Dalai Lama's message in the context of all my global travels and all the different people that I have met, I quickly arrive at the conclusion that we are still in the minority globally. Most people are thinking only about what they need to do to survive.
People are taking pay cuts or losing their jobs. Much of what we environmental advocates are asking our fellow citizens to take on in their daily lives is perceived to be at an added cost to their present lifestyles.
We need to follow Barack Obama's example of reaching across the barriers that divide us as a people. We must learn how to reach into our hearts and truly meet another human being exactly where they are. And it's HARD! But if we feel into where there charge is, and let it be. If we can relax our inner antagonists... then, in that space of mutual understanding, invite them to join us in affecting change.
We must start by finding what it is that motivates people and speak to THAT.
We must find the language that bridges our interests to theirs. As opposed to trying to get them to join our movement.
In the midst of the deepest global economic crisis that most of us have ever known, when the financial institutions that were the cornerstones of our American foundation, were collapsing, we had a voice in the darkness that held fast to the message of HOPE despite all evidence to the contrary. And it pulled us up into the light of possibility, and millions rallied around it. And the power of possibility pulled us up out of the depths of our sorrow and out of the height of our fear. And made us believe that together, we can make it through this.
And we can learn from that in the environmental community.
We must also re-frame our language to embrace opposing opinions, and the patience and tolerance to listen to them. This too needs to happen on a national level. Where behaving in an environmentally responsible manner needs to move from a gesture of good will to an act with an economic incentive or better yet, an imperative. A health imperative. A quality of life imperative.
We activists need to re-define activism altogether.
Each and every one of us becoming entrepreneurs of meaning, bringing the message of possibility into the world. Ushering in a new era of massive innovation and collaboration. Inspiring and empowering an entire generation of citizens who believe that WE CAN.

My Favorite Routine and how it Affects my Family
One of the biggest changes I've put in place to support my own self-care is my morning routine.
And I know what you might be thinking…."a morning routine for myself? Who has time? I don't want to wake up any earlier than I do now!"
Hear me out…(because I had the exact same thoughts a year ago…)
My routine has been built slowly over the course of a year!
Before putting my routine in place I was having a hard time finding quiet time for myself, our mornings were hectic and I usually started the day frustrated….I decided to start small…
- It started with gratitude. Simply writing down what I was grateful for each morning. ( 3- 5 minutes total)
- A few months later, I added our family journal, where I document important events, funny things the kids said or did, and just everyday memories. (Maybe up 7 minutes now)
- Next, I started reading one passage a day from, Only Love Today, by Rachel Macy Stafford.
This brought the routine up to about 10 minutes (if that!). Was I able to do it every single day…no…but I strived for every day.
That is where it stayed for a really long time.
I kept thinking that I would love to wake up early but….the boys were up too much at night….I liked to cuddle with them in the morning…my older son wakes up early as it is, so what was the point if I wasn't truly getting quiet time….there was always a reason.
It took me over six months of thinking about it to decide I was ready to wake up early.
I've started waking up between 5:00 and 5:30 AM and it has not only had a major affect on me but my family as well.
By waking up early and taking the time for myself, I'm ready to greet the boys in the morning, no more battles of "when are we going downstairs?" or them getting wild with each other first thing and me getting frustrated…
I get to talk to my husband before he goes to work or sit together even for two minutes to have coffee….kidfree!
Sometimes I have a visitor, usually my older son. He watches his show sitting next to me while I do my routine, or sometimes my routine gets set aside to color or read with him.
We're starting our day with more positive interactions with each other, and I've started to look forward to my mornings.
The routine itself is fluid, depending on when I wake up, and if I have company but here are the pieces I aim for:
- Ten minutes of movement…maybe just walking in place, sometimes cleaning.
- Gratitude Journal
- Memory Journal
- Reading from Only Love Today, a short passage
- Meditation – just 5 minutes, I'm slowly building this up
- Reading or writing
I also want to mention that I pay attention to when my body needs more sleep, we've had illness hit the house, I've had a few late nights in a row…and when those happen, I take the pressure off of myself.
I trust myself enough to know that I love this morning routine and that I'm not going to lose it if I choose to sleep some days.
This routine has become a source of comfort, allowed me to be more present with my boys in the morning, and as a family, we start our days with more positive interactions.
Not only that, it allows me to start the day grounded and ready to go. I'm more productive, my head is clear and I find I focus better throughout the day.
So what are my top tips for creating a morning routine that works for you?
- Start small! Pick something that is most fulfilling for you, start with that.
- Be patient with yourself and your circumstances.
- Be flexible.
If you were to pick one thing to do for yourself before you start your day, what would be it be?

5 Epic Product Fails and the Lessons They Can Teach Your Small Business
While success can never be guaranteed for those preparing to launch a new product, lessons can be learned from the failures of others. Here are five memorable product fails and their corresponding lessons for entrepreneurs, three of which originate with mega-brands Coca-Cola, Microsoft, and Apple.
- Orbitz: The soda's clever gimmick of an intriguing appearance (suspended gel balls) couldn't compensate for its unsavory texture and taste
- Juicero: The juice press was found unnecessary to create juice from its proprietary Juicero juice packs; there was a simple, less expensive solution – squeezing the packs by hand — to the problem it was solving
- Microsoft Zune: The answer to Apple's iPod; it simply wasn't unique or enough to challenge Apple's established product and overwhelming market share
- New Coke: Tried to out-compete Pepsi by coming up with a sweeter version of itself – New Coke – which tasted more like Pepsi; rather than leaning into its brand, it offended brand loyalists
- Apple's Newton MessagePad: The very first tablet made by Apple, the computerized notepad couldn't deliver on its promise – it was terrible at handwriting recognition
3 Ways for Startups to Save Cash
If you're at the very beginning of your entrepreneurial journey, especially if you're a small business that intends to remain small, then you know that one of your biggest challenges is dealing with a tight budget. To save money while you're getting underway, consider these three strategies: launch from home until you can afford that office, warehouse or commercial kitchen; be energy efficient; and stop trying to impress with outward appearances of success. Remember, people are interested in doing business with you because of the value you create and the problem you solve.
The Value Of Establishing Sops For Your Business
Establishing well-defined standard operating procedures (SOPs) for your business carries more value than simply ensuring your employees are prepared for any eventuality. Establishing clear, detailed procedures also can increase the value of your business by building brand consistency and a reputation for excellence, as well as demonstrating to investors that you have a plan for whatever happens in the future. That said, three of the most important reasons for SOPs are: they provide a basis for consistency and promote quality assurance; they create a safe work environment; and they're essential to employee evaluation.
This Company Spent 300000 Hours A Year In Pointless Meetings
Drowning in meetings? You're not alone. Research by a group of Harvard Business Review reporters found that at one large company, people spent 300,000 hours annually just supporting its weekly executive committee meeting. That is more than 34 years' worth of labor. If your business is suffering from meeting overload, here are five ways to combat it, from assessing the prep time to sticking to agendas and schedules.
How To Protect Your Business From Your Own Mistakes
You've worked hard to build your business, doing everything you possibly can to make it a success. But your own behaviors and decisions may sabotage your startup without you being aware of it – until after the fact, when facing ill consequences. Accepting that nobody's perfect, including you, is the best attitude you can adopt to ensure your startup's success. Check into these four tips for safeguarding your business, ensuring its resilience and continuity no matter the unforeseen issues that can jeopardize it: Insuring it, appointing a backup CEO, securing an attorney, and vetting all the individuals your business deals with carefully.
Hack Work Day
So little time and too much to do, the saying goes. Perhaps nowhere is this more true than business, whether you're in charge of your own, run someone else's, or head up a department. Trying to do more in less time while putting out fires and demonstrating ROI are just a few of the challenges facing business professionals today. To give yourself a chance of winning the game, try these work day hacks aimed at capitalizing your daily cycles of peak productivity.
Extended version:
Claim YOUR day: With the recognition that there is no such thing as 9 – 5 for everyone, determine your optimal workday hours when you're at peak productivity.
Know your cycle: Determine what blocks of time during the day when you're at your best, distinguishing between the volume and the quality of your work. Reserve those windows for doing your most important work.
Shape your schedule: Be sure to set aside time for thinking, trend tracking and envisioning. Dedicate and protect these blocks of time, whether on a weekly or monthly basis – otherwise you'll never have enough time!
How This Former Lululemon Exec Went From Burned Out To Thriving Entrepreneur
If you're a workaholic – as most people in business tend to be – this interview with former Lululemon executive Sarah Kaler holds valuable lessons. As one of the key individuals behind the rise of Lululemon (the trendy high-end athletic clothing store), Kaler helped open hundreds of stores across North America. Stress, burn out, and exhaustion took a serious toll on her health, but what didn't kill her made her stronger. Now an entrepreneur, Kaler is an executive coach for leaders of top companies, building on her leadership coaching experience at Lululemon. In this interview, she discusses how women leaders can build teams, delegate more effectively and build positive company cultures.
4 Award-Winning Companies Share the Secret to Becoming Female-Friendly
The leaders of four companies that have won awards for their female-friendly workplace practices shared the lessons they learned in becoming so.
1. Send the right signals: The female CEO of the Canada-based microlearning platform Axonify, which was recently named one of The Best Workplaces for Women in Canada, said that the company's first step was to announce its new diversity initiative to employees. And not with an email, but a meeting to give the initiative the weight it deserved.
2. Set clear goals: In 2011, the Washington D.C.-based enterprise application software company SAP made a measurable goal for women to fill 25% of its leadership roles by the end of 2017. It attained the goal by mid-year.
3. Drop any one-size-fits-all thinking: The Boston Consulting Group, a global management consulting firm, won a Catalyst award for its workplace equality initiative. Adapting to each woman employee's personal goal and career path was a large part of the success of its program. https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/310842
4. Understand the "woman problem": IBM, which has also received a Catalyst award, created a "returnship" program designed to assist women re-entering the workforce after childbirth and child rearing. Regardless of whether they've been out of work for two years or for 20, they're able to participate in a 3-month internship program to learn the latest skills they need to succeed in the workplace.
Globe And Mail Announces Line Up Of Speakers Featured At Its Third Annual Small Business Summit
The Globe and Mail has announced the line up of speakers to be featured at its third annual Small Business Summit, to be held in Toronto on May 8th. Billed as "the country's premier event for entrepreneurs who want to grow their companies," small business owners, executives, business innovators, management consultants, as well as HR and finance professionals are encouraged to attend.
Validate Innovative Product Business
Have you created an innovative technical product that you'd like to serve as the foundation for your startup? Here's a reality check: no matter how elegant that solution may be, it won't necessarily translate into entrepreneurial success without a solid business model.
To develop the right business model for your product, it is recommended you take no less than seven steps, from validating the value of your solution with real customers to getting national visibility at trade shows and industry conventions. In today's business environment, the same level of effort needs to be invested in establishing the business model as in creating the product itself.

Erin and I spent yesterday with a group of ten wild, crazy, passionate, fun, and energetic youth. We turned them loose in the Plainview library to inventory books. We turned them loose in the Dollar Store to purchase items for families experiencing homelessness in Chicago. We turned them loose in Color Me Mine to paint bowls for the Channel One food bank fundraiser. We turned them loose in the new and old kitchens at Good Shepherd.
When you get a group of young people together, you never know exactly what will happen. You know LOTS will happen, but you aren't exactly sure how it will turn out. Enjoy the photos!
This Sunday is Pentecost. After Jesus returned to heaven, God turned the Holy Spirit loose to work in and through God's people on earth. We celebrate this on Pentecost Sunday. God's power is multiplied through all of God's children.
I think the Spirit's action looks a little like yesterday's holy adventures. The youth were entrusted with important work and they got it done. What would have taken one person hours to do, was done in minutes. What would have boring alone, became an adventure. What could have been overwhelming, was shared among friends.
Maybe this was what God had in mind when God turned the Holy Spirit loose in the world. Problems solved in unexpected ways. Care for the whole creation by people with a variety of passions. The energy of youth. The wisdom of elders. The curiosity of children. Loving. Caring. Serving. Forgiving. Healing. Teaching. All those things which Jesus did—now entrusted to us with the help of the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit is on the loose in our congregation. The new space opens up new possibilities for serving, growing, and welcoming. How is God's Spirit nudging you? How is God's Spirit inspiring the Good Shepherd?

In this episode I discuss the importance of having a vision. We must have a vision to be able to get where we want to go in life and in our professions. Â It is imperative that we see where we want to be and create an actionable plan for getting there.
That starts with creating a mission and vision statement for ourselves. Â This is the beginning of the process for following a self development plan.
When you start to have a vision and act upon it, you have some that want to blind you and to make you second guess yourself. They will try to make you feel guilty for moving forward, for working hard and for getting better! Â DO NOT let them keep you from your vision!
Below is a sample mission and vision statement from a student from one of my officer development classes. Â It its geared for the fire officer, but it is applicable for anybody.
Thanks for listening and take care,
Vision Statement
"To obtain the rank of Company Officer with the ………..Fire Protection District. In doing so, use the position of Company Officer to positively motivate, lead, and train both new and tenured employees.â€
Mission Statement
"To serve the …………. residents and employees with the highest level of professionalism and respect.â€

HPE XP7 Flash Modules
The HPE XP7 Flash Module Device is a FMD unique to XP7. It combines MLC NAND flash and a SAS interface with a custom ASIC controller for superior flash performance. The FMD form factor is larger than traditional SSD and therefore is available in capacities of 1.7 TB, 3.5 TB, 7 TB and 14 TB. They are configurable in a variety of RAID types in the same fashion as other drives and is compatible with all XP7 firmware and software features.
The XP7 Flash Module Device supports wear levelling. In a flash memory each write or erase cycle stresses the cell which in turn causes deterioration of the cell over time. This might cause an imbalance in the cell activity which creates an irregular distribution of these unstable cells thereby impacting the life of flash.
The flash controller monitors the number of writes, erasures and refreshes to eliminate these imbalances by balancing the rate of deterioration in the flash memory cells. This helps in extending the useful lifetime of flash.

We report a case of a patient with renal cell carcinoma on pazopanib, who presented with severe upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Endoscopy showed a giant bulbar ulcer with a visible vessel of 4 mm. Due to unavailability of surgical rescue backup, large calibre vessel treatment was delayed. Endoscopy was repeated after 48 hours and showed a reduction in the vessel diameter. Endoscopic adrenalin injection and electrocoagulation were performed. However, the vessel increased in size and became pulsatile. The patient was operated, confirming a giant bulbar ulcer penetrating the pancreas with active bleeding from the gastroduodenal artery. Pazopanib therapy was suspended, and the patient is asymptomatic. Antiangiogenic treatment has been associated with gastrointestinal bleeding, perforation and fistulisation. Although we cannot confirm the causal association between the penetrating ulcer and pazopanib, the absence of Helicobacter pylori infection or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and the reported cases of gastrointestinal bleeding during these therapies favour a possible association.
- ulcer
- drugs: gastrointestinal system
- endoscopy
- stomach and duodenum

While most of the Blackmagic Design subject of interest seemed to be centered around DaVinci Resolve 16, Blackmagic also made several significant product announcements that set the stage for future industry technological advances while at the same time being eminently useful today.
ATEM Constellation 8K Switcher
This latest addition to the ATEM product line provides a whopping 40 12G SDI inputs, 4 DVE's, 16 keyers, 4 media players, 4 MultiViewers, and standards conversion on each input. If working in 8K, 4 12G quadlinks will represent 1 channel of 8K, meaning that the Constellation will support up to 10 8K inputs. The multi-viewers are customizable. And we shouldn't forget that it has tally. Simply put, there are a host of features and with 8K capability for under $10,000 this is another Blackmagic product that lowers the cost of production while offering complete feature sets. But there is more! It has a built in Fairlight audio mixer supporting up to 156 channels of audio. It has full digital as well as analog inputs for video. ATEM Constellation 8K is available immediately.
HyperDeck Extreme 8K HDR
This latest HyperDeck will ship in June for $4995. It picks up the feature set of earlier HyperDeck models adding H.265 reading and encoding up to 8k, optional internal cache, and even analog i/o for legacy VTR's. Blackmagic touts its use for 8K digital signage since playback is real time. With its quadlink 12G capabilities, it can also record 8K at full resolution. Like prior HyperDecks, it can store to C-Fast2 cards but like recent Blackmagic cameras, it also contains a USB C port to utilize fast and comparatively less expensive SSD media.
MultiDock 10G
This is a companion product to the HyperDeck Extreme 8K allowing up to 4 SSD's to record HyperDeck content. It can split the input between 2 USB C ports, RAID the drives or simply record to an SSD individually or sequentially. At $595, it is a logical addition to the HyperDeck 8K.
Teranex Mini SDI to HDMI 8K HDR
This $1295 device will ship in May and is an elegant solution to being able to monitor 8K to an HDMI display. It is designed around HDR workflows with all current standards supported. Like earlier Teranex models, it includes 33 point 3D LUTs and can even utilize third party calibration tools to calibrate target monitor.
Read the feature sets below for all of these products for greater detail.
ATEM Constellation 8K Features
- HD and Ultra HD switcher can be switched to 8K.
- Advanced design with built in front panel controls.
- Large 40 standards converted 12G-SDI inputs.
- 24 customizable 12G-SDI outputs.

YOU DECIDE: Fievel Edition
I just froze mid-sentence because I heard a pan flute rendition of "Somewhere out There" coming from down the hall.
Am I going crazy or is this place becoming more magical? YOU DECIDE.

It's definitely getting more magical. I used to love that movie as a young lady. I'm so glad you and me are children of the 80s. I so much enjoy all your TGIF references. Just about as much as I've enjoyed the homage to great 80s flicks that 30Rock have humored me with these past weeks. First Teen Witch and then just last night Harry and the Hendersons!? I mean, come on, did they just take those straight off my facebook profile of favorite movies?

In common with other Beta Males, I'm not very good at being sick. I mope around the house feeling sorry for myself and emitting pathetic whimpers while snotting into my soup.
Unsavoury as this image may be, my pallor and conduct were even worse while stuck at Oban campsite recovering from a debilitating sickness bug. Thank the lord for 'Aggers and the gang and the ever-excellent Test Match Special. Without them, I would have been shaking a fist and shouting at the blackbirds.
Had my condition not improved by Sunday morning, then plans for a trip through the Western Isles by bike may have had to change. However, I managed to get through the first hour of the day without singing into the toilet bowl and, with a relatively light day cycling and five hours on a ferry, thought it was time to hit the road.
Although there are free car parks in Oban where you can leave a car while you head out to the islands for a few days, I decided to pay a very reasonable £2 a day and have my car locked in a spare field at the campsite. I'd do this again in future.
Bidding the campground manager a fond farewell, I pedalled tentatively down a pretty lane to the town… a route I'd paced with the camera the previous two days desperately trying to get well. It felt great to be riding at last.
I locked the bike in town, bought my no 23 hopscotch and killed some time with TMS and, eventually, the most enormous portion of fish and chips. I needed to feed my system with calories after the consuming just three digestive biscuits over the previous 48 hours.
I joined a bevy of other excitable cyclists at the ferry terminal – some like me bound for Barra, some for Lochboisdale and the Uists. The ferryman glanced at my Hopscotch and said: 'So, going all the way to the top are we? Should be grand!'
I parked my bike ahead of the cars and made quickly for the upper deck to take in the view. Mountains and islands slipped by and I tried to focus on the journey ahead rather than the location of the nearest toilet.
We reached Castlebay on the dot at 8.30pm and I disembarked into a gloomy evening. I pedalled around the village looking for something, not really sure what.
I followed Barra's main road to the west and eventually happened upon a campsite at Borve, which had a fine vantage point over the day and a working toilet and water tap.
I pitched the tent quickly and a van arrived. £5 for the night, the chap said, and he highlighted the meagre facilities to underline the value of the transaction. I realise I could have wild camped, but it was late and the pitch was flat… so flat you could probably have calibrated a sprit level by it.
With my pitch organised a fellow camper came over for a chat. I recognised him from the Oban site. He was a man of the cloth and was a frequent flyer to the Highlands and Islands. He seemed pleased to have a rare Sunday off.
In common with other clergy I've met, he spoke with a calm authority. I enjoyed his company, although I don't think he necessarily approved of me espousing the qualities of Norman MacCaigs's poetry – a writer sceptical of religion.
We chatted until late, enjoying what can only be described as softening light rather than darkness. Bidding one another goodnight, I retreated to the tent and listened to waves crashing on the nearby craggy shore…

Love how this dress fit. Quite flattering. Great value because I bought it on sale.
Beautiful dress! I love it. It's easy to dress up or down and it's quite comfortable. I got it on sale which made it a bit more attractive.. At regular price it's a bit steep.. but if you get it on sale go for it :)
I absolutely love the dress and cannot wait to wear it about!
Dress it up or wear it casually, this dress fits well in all the right places. Top is double layered and not too deeply cut and the bottom flows easily. Bought on sale, so the price was right. Great option to have in your closet.
Personal choice I'm guessing. Nothing wrong with the dress, reasonable value, felt like a posh beach dress.
Lovely dress
Great fitting dress. I'm between sizes 14-16 and this dress is true to size. I ordered this in a 14 and it was a snug fit which is what I wanted on top. Unfortunately it has a fault in the front so It is sadly going back
I love the soft fabric and it looks great on! You cannot go wrong ordering this basic but lovely dress. It's versatile to dress up with jewels or a colorful wrap for cooler evenings or throw a jean jacket over it for a more casual event. Don't hesitate to get this dress.
I ordered this dress for a Wedding and it's perfect. Fabric drapes nicely and flattering fit. I'm 5'11 and it touches the floor. Perfect with low heels. I love that it is lined.
This dress fit fantastic, I'm large busted so sometime struggle with cross over tops but this was perfect. The length was just off the floor, the perfect length for me. The double layer skirt covered any tummy bumps.
This is a very nice dress with a good fit on top and a nice v back as well. It is pretty long and you would need. heels to wear it if you were 5"10 or less, I would say, but the perfect length for me. The lining makes it drape really nicely I think the price is a bit steep for what it is but I've ordered a second one because I really like it.

Mr Albert E. Wray, the Luton Tramways Manager, has accepted a responsible position with the firm of Dick, Kerr & Co, general engineers, who have works in various parts of the United Kingdom for the manufacture of generating plants, tramways etc.
He resigned his Luton position this week, only after repeated pressure from his firm to remain, and he is due to commence in his new post in February. He will act in an advisory capacity in the traction department of Dick, Kerr's engineering staff.
Mr Wray (pictured) came to Luton in 1915 from Gravesend, where he was an engineer and manager to an important tram and bus system. Prior to that he was assistant manager and chief engineer to the South Metropolitan Tramways & Lighting Co.
It cannot be said that Mr Wray's stay in Luton has been of the happiest character so far as his work is concerned. He has worked against almost insurmountable and heartbreaking difficulties and, while criticising the condition of our tramway system, all have been more than ready to admit that it would have been much worse but for the skilful direction of Mr Wray.
In an interview with a Telegraph representative, Mr Wray said: "I say definitely that the best thing for the public of Luton is that the Corporation should take over the undertaking. They have everything to gain and nothing to lose. I am firmly of opinion that the Council must inevitably take it over, for the growth of the town will depend solely on the means of transportation.
"In connection with a good tramway system there will be the necessity for a service of motor buses linking up the outside districts, and running to St Albans and other places. It will not mean making a lot of money, but it will be a right step in meeting the public needs. The possibilities of the undertaking are great, if taken over and developed in the manner which I have explained to the town's Tramways Committee.
"The public cannot realise what I have had to contend with in Luton. The system depends on the human element, and it is in this way that disorganisation occurs. Owing to labour difficulties we could not take the necessary disciplinary action."

Prada enters the world of high jewelry
Even Prada lands in luxury jewelry: in the last few weeks, in fact, both in the boutiques and in the company e-store, it is possible to buy the first collection signed by Prada and which includes gold jewelery alongside the already present bijoux of the maison.
The jewels are all made in 18-karat gold with diamonds from suppliers with Rjc certification - Responsible Jewelry Council, the non-profit organization founded in 2015 and which promotes the adoption of responsible practices from an ethical, social and environmental point of view, respecting human rights, from the extraction to the sale of metals and precious stones.
"The workmanship - affirm Prada - involves multiple meticulous steps and uses accurate artisan techniques. From the precision casting for gold treatment, to the use of the numerical control machine and the drawing for cutting diamonds, up to the creation of the other elements.
These are processes that combine traditional knowledge and mastery in the sector with technological innovation, together with the objective of giving each piece a flawless quality ".
The protagonists of the collation are guitars, roses, rabbits, robots, bananas and the well-known triangular logo, all of which are in gold and diamonds. They are the subjects that retrace the history of the brand through earrings, bracelets, pendants and necklaces, among the historical ones of Prada that alternate with those of the newer collections.

Erin is a nerd… GC 2012 edition

There's no next time! :(
October 15, 2009
Reading Rainbow comes to the end of its 26-year run on Friday [August 28]; it has won more than two-dozen Emmys, and is the third longest-running children's show in PBS history — outlasted only by Sesame Street and Mister Rogers.
Grant says the funding crunch is partially to blame, but the decision to end Reading Rainbow can also be traced to a shift in the philosophy of educational television programming. The change started with the Department of Education under the Bush administration, he explains, which wanted to see a much heavier focus on the basic tools of reading — like phonics and spelling.
Grant says that PBS, CPB and the Department of Education put significant funding toward programming that would teach kids how to read — but that's not what Reading Rainbow was trying to do.
So yeah, phonics, the thing that literally funded my graduate education in reading has killed my favorite childhood reading show. It's a full circle moment.

I was telling AJ, our Leo, how I remember seeing this on the Rosie ODonnell Show and falling in love with it. He said, "Oh I go watch it on YouTube all the time. " So I thought I'd spread the wealth.

Last night I hit a Walmart that had a fresh Johnny Lightning case and what do you know it had a WL in it!
I guess Walmart is getting old 2016 cases in cause acrossed some Face book pages I've seen a few of these Novas WL pop up in the cases.
Just before hitting the Wally I was at a local Friday night show and picked up a few lose goodies
The interesting thing is this Matchbox Feild car
It looks to be a transitional piece that was a left over orange painted car that got repainted to the olive green. I thought it was kid painted but you can see in the rivit post has orange and on the inside the green over spray and no bleed over paint on the base. I guess even in the 1970's Matchbox was using cost cutting measures to save a few bucks. Instead of casting new bodies or stripping the paint they just painted over them.
Also picked up this 24 count car case not too bad of shape just some splitting where the handle goes in but that should be an easy fix.
