Federal Reserve nominee Jerome Powell got into a heated debate over bank regulation with Senator Elizabeth Warren Tuesday.
Powell was testifying to the Senate Banking Committee as part of his confirmation for the chairmanship of the Federal Reserve. Warren challenged him to name any bank regulations he thinks would be tougher.
Powell said he thinks regulations are "tough enough." Instead of new rules, the Fed should focus on toughing enforcement on things like 'living wills,' the documents that the biggest banks are required to submit to regulators to prove that their failure could be resolved without a bailout. So far, bank regulators have been critical of the submissions but have not taken action against the banks whose living wills have failed to impress.
Warren said Powell's approach "deeply concerned" her.
Powell said that the focus of the Fed should be on making the postcrisis regulatory regime more efficient and tailored to the risks posed by individual firms.
Powell also indicated that he favors reworking to Volcker Rule, the ban on proprietary trading. "I do believe we could do that in a way that is faithful to both the language and intent of the law," he said.
President Donald Trump has promised to rework the postcrisis system of regulation that was put in place beginning with the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010. Critics say that the regulations are too costly for smaller financial institutions, entrust too much power to the discretion of regulators, and favor the large banks. Powell's remarks indicate that he supports the broad outlines of the president's agenda.
Powell said he would not characterize his agenda as "deregulation" but revisiting regulation to make sure "what we did makes sense." For instance, he said it was possible that the Fed could change the frequency of stress tests, conducting them at less than the current annual rate.
Powell also signaled that the Fed will likely raise its interest rate target in December. The case for a rate hike "is coming together," Powell said. To support this he cited high confidence among businesses and households.

Kids get close to nature, animals at new Alpine retreat
Life is about to get a little wilder in East County.
A 20-acre ranch in Alpine will open Nov. 5 as the Children's Nature Retreat. Kids and families will be able to connect with non-indigenous species such as camels, zebras, ostriches, alpacas, a watusi and a zebu, as well as the more traditional cows, horses, sheep, goats, chickens, tortoises, rabbits and pigs.
Agnes Barrelet said she got the idea for the retreat after watching the 2011 movie "We Bought a Zoo" with her young daughter.
Based on a true story, the Cameron Crowe film follows a widowed father of two young children who buys property that includes a run-down zoo, works to restore it and eventually re-opens a renovated zoo to great success.
Barrelet, executive director of the facility, held a "soft opening" on Oct. 22 for nearly 100 people.
Children and and adults were able to get near the animals who roamed freely in their wide enclosures. They pet miniature horses, watched a blind cow being led by her "guide cow" and listened to potbellied pigs oink.
"I want my kids to be closer to nature so I'm very excited about this," said Gaby Arroyo, who brought her two young children. "This is a place where they can walk around freely, run in the dirt and watch animals."
The retreat has 14 employees who live off site, and 80 animals who reside in a ranch-style setting, with big barns, bigger pastures and areas set aside for future farms, organic gardens and a campsite. The address is 5178 Japatul Spur.
Longtime San Diego Zoo employee Heidi Trowbridge is the head animal curator at Barrelet's venue. She said the Children's Animal Retreat is different than a traditional zoo in many ways.
"We are all about the animal experience," Trowbridge said. "Animals have freedom here and they live in their natural state. Everything we do has to be good for the animals."
Trowbridge said the retreat uses all natural products whenever possible, organic fly sprays and cleaners, and that even mice and rats are humanely trapped and released away from the barn area.
Barrelet said she hopes kids from low-income, urban areas will be able to get out of the city and interact with animals and learn about sustainable farming. She also said it was important to her that the animals live out their lives in a healthy, happy environment.
"I provide the animals with their last house," said Barrelet, a native of France who moved to California in 1995. "I want them to be the happiest they can be. That is my passion.
"I want people to come here and enjoy a very peaceful place, a serene environment. I want the animals to have the same thing - trust and respect on both sides."
Some of the animals she has assembled are rescued from as far away as Texas and Oklahoma and others as close as Ramona and Hesperia.
Barrelet used some of the money she earned from a successful 1990s internet start-up business called websidestory.com to finance the retreat.
She is involved in several philanthropic ventures. She also runs Hands United For Children, a non-profit founded in 2006 which helps fund schools, clinics and shelters, and tends to health and welfare needs of at-risk children in the U.S. and Africa.
When she was 5, Barrelet said she was so sick with chronic bronchitis that her parents sent her to live for several weeks at a hospital in the mountains known for its healing environment. It was there that she first spent time up close with farm animals.
She also spent childhood summers in rural areas around goats, cows, sheep and other livestock.
"That's what I want for kids from underprivileged areas to see," Barrelet said. "I want them to see something different in their lives."
The retreat will be open seven days a week, and will offer single-day passes for adults for $45, $35 for children under 12, free for kids under 2. It will also offer a school field-trip program from 9 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. during the week.
One of the first schools to bring students to explore Children's Nature Center will be the O'Farrell Charter School, a K-12 campus in the southeastern San Diego neighborhood of Encanto. Barrelet is on the board of directors there.
O'Farrell Superintendent Jon Dean said he was looking forward to having his students visit.
"There are kids who haven't been exposed to anything like this," Dean said. "(Recently) we had a bus full of about 20 kids who hadn't been to the beach, and we took them there. Many of the kids haven't even visited the (San Diego) zoo. We want to take them to this nature retreat. It is so valuable for the kids to have these types of experiences."
Retreat visitor Leanne Michael said she appreciated the serenity she felt while there. She also said she was thrilled with how she saw the animals being treated by the employees she met.
"How lucky are these animals who get to live the rest of their lives here?" Michael said. "I'm excited to see how this place is going to evolve. This is special."

About Me
I grew up in Liverpool, New York, which is a suburb of Syracuse. I have been in education in some capacity for 28 years. I graduated Cum Laude from the State University of New York College at Cortland with a Bachelor of Science in Education and a Minor in Music. I also received a Master of Science in Education with an emphasis on Curriculum and Instruction from that same college.
I began my teaching career at Bear Road Elementary in the North Syracuse Central School District happily teaching students first in 4th, then 2nd, and finally 5th grade. After many years in elementary school, I felt it was time for a new challenge, and transferred to Roxboro Road Middle School where I first taught Social Studies and Math to 5th graders, and then Language Arts and Math to 6th graders until my family moved to Houston.
In July of 2001 my husband and I moved to Houston, and began our new life in this wonderful city. My Spring Branch career began at Northbrook Middle School where I taught 6th grade Math. Then I became the Math School Improvement Specialist at Pine Shadows Elementary. While working at PSE, I received my Principal's Certificate from the University of St. Thomas in Educational Administration.
Before joining the Westchester Academy family in the fall of 2013, I was an Assistant Principal at Bunker Hill Elementary, a Principal at Pine Shadows Elementary, and a Data Specialist in the Accountability and Research Department, all in SBISD.
Personally, I have been married to my husband Michael for 24 years. We have two very spoiled cats who rule the roost,Scotty, and Felix. In my free time I enjoy making jewelry, reading, knitting, hunting, and all types of crafts. I am very fortunate to call Houston my home and work at Westchester Academy.

Standout verse: "'Is anything to difficult for the Lord? At this appointed time I will return to, at this time next year, and Sarah will have a son.'" Genesis 18:14
Little Insights:
*Whether or not he knew upon seeing them that it was the Lord and angels, Abraham was a generous and gracious host to his visitors. (Hebrews 13:2)
*God graciously visits the towns of Sodom and Gomorrah, just as He did Babel, to allow mercy and enact justice.
*The mob of men was so driven by their lust that they continued in a rape attempt even after they had been blinded. (Gen. 19:11)
*Lot's witness to his townspeople and his own son-in-laws must have been lacking, for they laugh at him and his warning of judgement. (Gen. 19:14)
*Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed utterly, there is no record of the valley being inhabited again.
*Sodomy bears the association with the infamous city, a warning forever to future generations. (2 Peter 2:7 & 10 & Jude 7)
*The Moabites and the Ammonites were judged by God, not for their shameful beginnings, but because they did not serve the Israelites when they wandered in the wilderness.
*God is gracious, even to sinners- a Moabite, Ruth, is listed in Christ's genealogy; no culture, race or person is beyond God's lavish grace!
*Abimelech was restrained from touching Sarah to ensure that Abraham was the father of Isaac.
*At 90 years old, Sarah was still beautiful enough to be desired for a harem- either Abimelech was trying to solidify an alliance with Abraham (in marrying his "sister") or she had a fabulous pregnancy glow!
*Abraham's lie is evidence that humans are prone to struggle with specific sins over and over and over; sometimes those sins pass to our own children too! (Gen 26:7-14 & 27:19-24)
*Abraham is referred to as a prophet, a word used in Genesis only once!
YDW encouraged us to consider a miracle. What thing in the world that seemed utterly impossible that God could do. I think about 3 years ago, I was in need of a miracle. It didn't seem possible that God could take the ashes of my failed life and turn it into beauty; but, that is just what happened. What miracle are you waiting for? What hope, beyond hope have you sidelined because it seems to be impossible. Do you not know that we serve a God of impossibilities?"Looking at them, Jesus said, ' With people it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God.'" (Mark 10:27)
Just for fun: Google "Necker Cube" or "Impossible cube" and read about my analogous picture.
Love, Lauren

Silcare Base One Shining UV Nail Gel 5g
medium thick

Gel Type: building, transparent, shining
Capacity: 5g

- medium thick
- transparent
- perfectly shines
- one-phased
How to use: spread the gel on the nail plate and cure in a UV lamp with power of 36 watts for 2 min. Wipe mass of dispersive film.
Base One Line is a single-phase line, which thanks to the development from the best products combined in the right proportions, it can be used in a three-phase process. Thanks to it used decorations will last longer, and we will longer enjoy their intensity.
The first step is a gel underlay (e.g. Silcare Base Gel One Bonder) that increases the adhesion of the gel mass. Ideal for any type of nail plate. The gel forms a protective filter between the nail and the gel which increases the adhesion of subsequent gels. Used exclusively for gel method.
The cured gel layer of "Bonder" is a primer for the second step, which is building the layer: made with gel such as Base One Clear. The third step is a gel such as Silcare Base One Shining, which fits perfectly with the previous layers and adds shine to the nails.

Want to know why we use certain ingredients?
Here are several we use along with the science behind them.
Brewer's Yeast
Brewer's yeast is the result of beer maker's use of live yeast in the brewing process to convert sugars into alcohol. Once this fermentation process is complete you are left with brewer's yeast as a byproduct and most horses love it.
Brewer's yeast is an excellent source of B complex vitamins and amino acids. B complex vitamins are a group of water soluble vitamins meaning that the horse's body will not store them but will rapidly excrete them in urine. Vitamin B1, which is contained in brewer's yeast, is also made naturally by the horse in their hindgut. It along with vitamin B12 is essential for the metabolism of carbs, fats, and proteins. Vitamin B1 has been used as a calming influence on the nervous horse for some time. Though it is made naturally by the horse, some research has found that it is still necessary to supplement vitamin B1 through the horse's diet, especially in young horses starting a training program and performance horses. Vitamin B2 is required for the health of mucus membranes in the horse's digestive tract and Biotin aids in hoof health. Brewer's yeast contains both.
Yeast supplementation enhances protein and mineral digestion - critical for young and grown horses, performance horses, and broodmares.
Flax Seed
Flax seed is naturally high in Omega 3 fatty acids (the good fats). The only non- supplemented source of omega 3's in the horse's diet comes from fresh grass. Flaxseed has been shown to reduce inflammation to relieve symptoms of sweet itch, allergies, and other skin conditions.
Having anti-inflammatory benefits, flaxseed can assist in cases of arthritis and joint stiffness. In some cases it can be so effective as to replace commercial joint supplements or regular doses of bute. Flaxseed helps to boost the immune system and regulate thyroid function, making it ideal for horses with metabolic syndromes as well as aging horses.
Omega 3's added to a horses diet have shown to improve skin, hair coat, body condition, and reduce excitability.
Sea kelp contains 46 minerals, 16 amino acids, and 11 vitamins. Kelp provides an antioxidant effect and attracts heavy metals and removes them from the body. The supplementation of kelp to a horse's diet has shown to induce high levels of cytokine activity. Cytokines are signaling proteins that regulate a large range of biological functions such as innate and acquired immunity, the production of all types of blood cells, inflammation, and repair. Kelp has external benefits as well. It has been shown to aid in the prevention of cracked hooves, improving skin texture, elasticity, and coat gloss.
Kelp supplementation in horses has shown to assist with boosting the immune system, increased fertility in brood mares and stallions, promotion of regular heat cycles, appetite stimulation, and improved digestive capacity.
Peppermint is an herb that has been used for years to maintain digestive health. Peppermint contains anywhere from 0.5% - 1.5% of volatile oil in all parts of the plant and the oil contains 50% menthol. It is this oil that makes peppermint such a valuable herb for the digestive system. It has a carminative (relieving flatulence) action, helping to relax sphincters and smooth muscles in the digestive system. Peppermint tones mucus membrane surfaces and increases peristalsis. The oil in peppermint has a cooling, soothing, and anesthetic effect on the smooth muscles of the stomach and intestines. This makes it a key herb for dealing with horses prone to colic, gastric and duodenal ulcerations, smooth muscle spasms, trapped gas, digestive cramping and poor appetite.
Whey Protein
Whey proteins are considered high quality because they have a more complete allowance of essential amino acids. Over 60% of the proteins found in whey are amino acids. Within whey protein, you will find high amounts of the branched chained amino acids; leucine, isoleucine, valine. These amino acids simulate protein synthesis and constitute 35% of amino acids in muscles. These particular amino acids are important for muscle repair.
Research on whey protein has primarily focused on its ability to build muscle. However, there have been several studies that have shown that lactoferrin, a multi-functional protein in whey, has a healthy growth stimulating effect on bones.

Manager as a Change Agent
The label "change agent" is often accompanied by misunderstanding, cynicism and stereotyping. Managers, employees and HR professionals alike have questioned the value of this role in their organization.
However, as organizations of all kinds face unrelenting changes in their environment, the need for individuals who are capable of turning strategy into reality has created a new legitimacy for the change agent role – which is often located within the Human Resource function. There are several reasons for this trend:
• Human resource professionals have made significant strides over the past decade in becoming business partners; demonstrating the value they can add to the business
• Executives are looking for where the change process can best be managed
• Most business strategies require major changes in people-related issues; Human Resource professionals develop and manage the key "people" systems needed to support organizational change
Change processes and change projects have become major milestones in many organizations' history. Due to the dynamics in the external environment, many organizations find themselves in nearly continuous change. The scope reaches from smaller change projects in particular sub business units up to corporation-wide transformation processes.
Unfortunately, not every change process leads to the expected results. There are multiple reasons for potential failure: Typical barriers to change are unexpected changes in the external conditions, a lack of commitment in implementation, resistance of people involved, or a lack of resources. The implications of failed change projects go beyond missed objectives. More important is the negative symbolism and the de-motivation of people involved. People within the change team may become dissatisfied with their own performance or with the lack of support they received. In the result, some of them will probably never again be willing to commit...

Roland announce NEW Analog Synth Sound Module SE-02
That's right, Roland have
finally added an Analog synth to their arsenal of sound modules. Like the previous boutique sound modules, the SE-02 is compact and can be used with the K-25m keyboard as well as other MIDI devices.
Available from September, the SE-02 is sure to become the most popular Synthesizer Sound Module from Roland so far.
What Roland have to say…
Roland introduces the SE-02 Analog Synthesizer, a collaborative effort from Roland and Studio Electronics, and the debut product of the new Roland Boutique Designer Series. Featuring authentic discrete analog circuitry and hands-on controls for nearly every function, the compact SE-02 allows users to produce classic and modern sounds with vast programmability.
The SE-02's analog synth engine features three voltage-controlled oscillators, a 24 dB low-pass filter, and a dual gain-stage amplifier. The oscillators have six different waveforms with the warmth and complex character associated with true analog VCOs. In addition, the oscillators are temperature stabilized with automatic tuning to provide solid operation while performing.
Other features include three types of cross modulation (XMOD), a filter feedback loop, a tempo-syncing LFO with nine waveforms, envelope sweeping and inverting, oscillator sync, a noise generator, and a tempo-syncing delay. The SE-02 comes equipped with 384 preset sounds that cover a wide range of classic and modern tones. With the large selection of panel controls, users can modify presets or create all-new sounds and store them in 128 available user locations.
The SE-02 also includes a 16-step sequencer that can sync to external tempo via MIDI, USB, or trigger input. Per-step gate time, adjustable glide, tempo, and patch number are stored with each sequence, and it's possible to adjust shuffle, scale, direction, and first/last steps on the fly. Parameters can be automated by pressing a step and moving a control. Users can store 128 sequence patterns and construct 16 songs, each with up to 16 parts.
The SE-02 features standard MIDI jacks for connecting any MIDI keyboard controller. Trigger I/O and CV inputs for pitch and filter frequency allow the SE-02 to work with modular setups and other vintage gear. Routing external audio signals through the filter section is possible, while USB audio/MIDI support provides integration with computer-based setups.

The truth is that for enterprise security folks, the threat to our privacy and data is not the NSA. It's the hacktivists, criminal organizations and rogue insiders who are using increasingly sophisticated techniques to gain access to our corporate intellectual property.
If there is a silver lining to the NSA story, it's that it brings visibility to the issue of data security. SaaS applications—where software and data is centrally hosted in the cloud—and physical devices like servers, notebooks and cell phones can collect and store data at an unprecedented scale. This data comes in all shapes and sizes, so it's important to understand what technologies exist to secure the data and how policies are defined and enforced to protect it.

Well it has been a while since I've done a Project Life post. Happy New Year!!
I am still about 4 weeks behind on 2012 but will hopefully get them up to date in the near future.
This year I am using the Seafoam kit (love it), and I found out yesterday that my subscription to Studio Calico Project Life kits will be on it's way for February. I want my pages to have a lighter look this year and I think that these 2 kits with the help of my Silhouette Cameo that I will get that look.
Here is the title page, I will be adding more to it when I get some more photos.
Week 1 started quietly with an afternoon at the beach with my friend Sarah from Documenting Chaos and her family. The end of the week was busy for us – Miss Paige turned 4 and I threw her a big party at the local pool.
Left side:
Right side:
Week 2 isn't quite finished – I might add a bit more embellishing but it is fine for the moment.

So that's it so far. Hope the new year is treating you well, thanks for looking 🙂

CLEVELAND -- A march in Public Square Saturday morning drew thousands of people to support women's rights and protest President Donald Trump's agenda.
"Love trumps hate," was the chant heard throughout the streets of downtown Cleveland.
The event, which is one of nearly 300 worldwide, began at 10 a.m. in Public Square, then proceeded down Ontario Street and Lakeside Avenue, before stopping at City Hall and Willard Park. Participants then circled back to Public Square for closing remarks from event organizers, Laura Johnson and Claudia Pasmatsiou.
Johnson and Pasmatsiou are graduate students studying physics at Case Western Reserve University.
"One afternoon while taking a break from research in our office, we discovered the Women's March on Washington," Johnson and Pasmatsiou wrote in a joint statement. "We saw that many cities were hosting sister marches, but were disappointed to find that Cleveland wasn't on the map. So we decided to take action and organize a local event."
The main message of the event was the importance of women's rights and there is much fear about President Trump's views on a range of issues.
"I don't agree with the values of the man elected to be president," said Glenn Goodman, who attended the rally.
Those issues include healthcare, LGBTQ rights, and views on abortion.
"I want to love who I want to love and I want to be proud of my body no matter what it has been through," said Claire Leff, who held a handmade sign at the event.
Speakers included U.S. Rep. Marcia Fudge, U.S. Rep. Marcy Kaptur, along with other state and local officials.
One marcher tells Fox 8 she wants to stand strong and is tired of feeling bullied by politicians.
"Let him know that we will not be moved, stand up to him, intimidate him, don't let him intimidate you," said Elizabeth Billingsley.
Cleveland police tweeted that 15,000 people attended today's march, peacefully. There were no arrests.
15,000 + peaceful demonstrators downtown expressing 1A rights. Main topics: various women's rights. No issues or arrests. ✌🏽

It was dead lovely and the wind had dropped by now! There was loads of yummy strawberries to pick aswell! I was being quite selective and picking big red ones! Yum! It looks like we made the most of the weather today as we have just had a big downpour of rain with thunder and lightning!

AVG has launched a version of its free LinkScanner for the Mac operating system.
It claimed that AVG LinkScanner for Mac is the first free AVG product designed for Mac OS X Leopard or Snow Leopard, and supports internet browsers Safari 3.0, Safari 4.0, Safari 5.0 and Mozilla Firefox 3.0 and higher.
LinkScanner for Mac, like its Windows equivalent, allows users to surf, search, email, shop and use social network programs online with the confidence that each web page they visit is checked in real-time by AVG's research team and user community.
If it detects something suspicious, LinkScanner notifies the user that the website is malicious.
J.R. Smith, CEO of AVG, said: "Mac users have traditionally been less vulnerable to virus threats and attacks because of their lower market share, but that is quickly changing and no operating system is immune, as these attacks are leveraging the web to deliver malware that target web browsers and application vulnerabilities. LinkScanner for Mac takes the first step to ensure customers are safe and won't end up losing their money, identities and precious digital memories.
"In addition, this new product has been enhanced to better protect users from being scammed, phished and entering personal information into infected games, quizzes, surveys, etc. on social networking sites."

5 Things Employer Should Know About Jobs Bank
From 1st October 2015, there are new regulations for employers to adhere to for job postings and Employment Pass (EP) applications in Singapore.
- What is the National Jobs Bank?
The National Jobs Bank was officially launched in August 2014 by the Singapore Workforce Development Agency (WDA) to facilitate online job matching between local job seekers and employers.
It is compulsory for employers with businesses with more than 25 employees to post job vacancies on the website for at least 14 calendar days before applying for an Employment Pass (on or after 1 August 2014). Do note that the prevailing EP qualifying criteria continues to apply to all employers.
- What is Ministry of Manpower's Fair Consideration Framework about?
The Fair Consideration Framework (FCF) is part of the Government's overall effort to strengthen the Singaporean core in the workforce. It sets out clear expectations for companies to consider Singaporeans fairly for job opportunities.
The FCF applies to all companies in Singapore. All companies must comply with the Tripartite Guidelines on Fair Employment Practices and have fair employment practices that are open, merit-based and non-discriminatory.
Why it matters: MOM views non-compliance with the Tripartite Guidelines seriously. Employers who post discriminatory job advertisements will have their work pass privileges curtailed. For example, they could be barred from making work pass applications.
- Tripartite Guidelines on Fair Employment & Discriminatory Job Advertisements
The Tripartite Alliance for Fair Employment Practices (TAFEP) was set up in 2006 to promote the adoption of fair (i.e. non-discriminatory) and responsible employment practices among employers, employees and the general public.
Job advertisements are expected to align with the Tripartite Guidelines on Fair Employment Practices, and companies that post discriminatory job advertisements with attributes pertaining to age, gender and nationality, and restricted their recruitment to exclusive groups may face severe penalties. Generally, employers who advertise a position requiring a specific attribute should ensure that it is indeed a requirement of the job and state the reason for it in the advertisement.
Why it matters: The Ministry of Manpower (MOM) have taken companies that are found to be posting discriminatory job advertisements to task. Here are the guidelines that you should be aware of.
- Exemptions
All companies are expected to have fair employment practices that are open, merit-based and non-discriminatory, even if the job vacancies are exempted from advertising. Companies are exempted from the Jobs Bank advertising requirement in any of these cases:
- Your company has 25 or fewer employees.
- The job position is paying a fixed monthly salary of $12,000 and above.
- The job is to be filled by an intra-corporate transferee (ICTs).
- The job is necessary for short-term contingencies (i.e. period of employment in Singapore for not more than one month).
All companies are strongly encouraged to advertise their job vacancies on the Jobs Bank for access to a larger pool of Singaporean candidates, even if those jobs are eligible for advertising exemption.
- New regulations for Employment Pass Applications from October 2015
Published Salary Range
For Employment Pass applications filed from 1 October 2015, the accompanying advertisements must include published salary ranges.
More Information for Employment Pass (EP) Application
To assess whether Singaporeans were considered fairly, MOM will also require the company to submit more information from 1 October 2015:
- The number of applications submitted by Singaporeans,
- Whether Singaporeans were interviewed for the vacancy,
- The firm's current share of Singaporeans in PME positions.

Unlike many other "music marketing" authors and consultants, David does more than just talk theory. He is himself a successful musician who built his music career entirely on the Internet. He started promoting his music online in 1995, and was able to quit his "day job" to do music full time in 2001. He has been a "full time musician" ever since.

Here are the details.

10:00 am-Noon: Recording the Piano. Learn how to make high quality recordings of the piano. Talk given by Joseph Akins and Michael Fleming, professors of the Dept. of Recording Industry at MTSU.
1:00 pm-3:00 pm: David Nevue - How to Promote Your Music Successfully on the Internet
3:30 pm-5:30 pm: Piano Workshop with David Lanz. Lanz will cover many aspects of performance, composing, practice, and the application of music in the real world. David Lanz is a two-time Grammy nominee, whose "Heartsounds" album helped launch the famed Narada records in the early 80's.
8:00 pm - 10:30 pm: Whisperings: Solo Piano Concert - For the past five years, Whisperings solo piano concerts have been growing in popularity across the country. Ignited by the internet radio station with the same name, a Whisperings concert showcases artists (pianist and composers) heard on the broadcast. This show will feature the legendary David Lanz with guests David Nevue, Joseph Akins and Philip Wesley.

I get the word that, internally at DC Comics, some editorial wisecracks are placing bets on exactly how many pages of each issue of the six-weekly Man Of Steel series written by Brian Bendis will be drawn by the solicited named artists.
Both DC Comics and Marvel Comics have had a bunch of artists join the solicited artists to help out at the last minute and help comics hit their scheduled publication dates.
Will that be the case with Man Of Steel? Each issue has a different A-List art team, but how many of the twenty pages per issue will be completed by those names? Here are the issues in question.
- THE MAN OF STEEL #1 by IVAN REIS and JOE PRADO
- THE MAN OF STEEL #2 by EVAN "DOC" SHANER
- THE MAN OF STEEL #3 by RYAN SOOK
- THE MAN OF STEEL #4 by KEVIN MAGUIRE
- THE MAN OF STEEL #5 by ADAM HUGHES
- THE MAN OF STEEL #6 by JASON FABOK
Wise folk know that Ivan Reis and Joe Prado have already handed in their pages. Also that Jason Fabok has been asked to add extra pages to the other issues on top of the twenty (expect two in Man Of Steel #1), so his issue should be in the can. And Kevin Maguire is confident enough to be posting his pages on Facebook already.
But the others? That's where the money play is.
If you were working in Burbank, where would you play your money?

High absence can put strain on the team and cause delays, low morale, and the inability to meet service demands, so First Practice Management (FPM) Group has put together some quick steps to reducing short term sickness in the practice.
For information on managing long term sickness, see our article here.
Having a sickness management policy/procedure enables the practice to manage absence levels fairly by issuing various levels of warnings for cumulative bouts of absence.
Often you might hear "it's not my fault," or, "I'm not pulling sickies," however it is important to emphasise that you are not questioning the validity or authenticity of absence, but rather managing levels of absence within the practice or an employee's ability to maintain regular attendance.
There are numerous ways of defining what will trigger a warning or stage of the process, including the Bradford Factor which scores absences depending on regularity and length. Another way might be the percentage method, where if 3% of the working year is sickness it triggers action. One of the simplest ways to manage absence is to use days and instances.
E.g. three instances of absence or five cumulative days of sickness absence in a six month period will result in the first warning. Following this you start again and three further instances or five further days will result in stage two whilst the warning is still live.
Without accurate records of absences, using a procedure will be pointless. Records of dates, durations and reasons should be noted down to ensure fair application of procedures can take place.
Practice wide stats on levels of absence will also help you to identify if the practice has an issue in comparison to other organisations and help you identify trends and whether you are making progress in reducing absence.
According to recent CIPD figures (2014), Public Sector Health Services are in the top three highest absence levels in UK sectors with an average of 4.2% of working time lost to sickness absence.
Across all other industries in the UK the average is 2.9% or 6.6 days per full time employee per year.
For larger practices, exploring team levels of absence can also be very useful as it helps to target problem areas. Issues such as poor employee engagement, a culture of 'taking advantage', stress and even bullying can sometimes be associated with high absence levels.
Return to work interviews should be completed as soon as an employee returns from each sickness absence, not only to meet your health and safety/duty of care obligations, but also to show you are actively monitoring and managing absence. Research has shown that the closer the proximity of the interview to the return date, the lower the absence in the organisation.
The following questions can be asked to ensure you get the most out of return to work interviews and they have the biggest impact:
(Or you could explain the sickness procedures or whether they have triggered action).
Disability related absences often cause complications in sickness management procedures. Some organisations choose to discount them altogether, although case law has established that the Equality Act 2010's requirement for employers to make 'reasonable adjustments' does not necessarily mean you should discount or be more generous with absence triggers for disability related absence. However, judgement should be taken on a case-by-case basis.
A simple way of reducing the risk of discrimination claims would be to gather independent medical advice on what impact the particular condition has on the employee's ability to attend work. Where Occupational Health confirms they may be prone to more regular absence, triggers can be relaxed; where not, triggers can remain the same and all absence included. Where it is confirmed they will not be able to maintain a reasonable level of absence, capability options can be explored. Occupational Health can also help to explore other methods of support the practice can offer which may improve attendance.
Employees who are perceived to abuse the system can cause a lot of frustration; where an employee is constantly just below the triggers, you can still take steps to address this (although caution should be taken). Consider whether there is a suspicious pattern. Does it coincide with rejected holidays? Is it always on a Monday? This can be questioned. You can also refer to Occupational Health at any point, if the employee has regular absence but it does not breach a trigger, you could refer them for advice on their health.
The First Practice Management policies and protocol library has a range of template policies and letters for members surrounding short term and long term sickness.
Alternatively for specific queries regarding sickness absence FPM Members can contact firstname.lastname@example.com where you question will be treated in confidence and will normally be answered (by email) within 2 working days of submission.

Ministry Responds to LLG Brexit PaperPublish date: 15/04/2019
The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government have responded to LLG's Brexit Position Statement in full. Click the link to read our briefing paper on the Ministry's response
With the ever-moving timetable on Brexit, contingency planning is even more challenging. The Ministry have taken the time to provide LLG with a detailed response to our Brexit position paper. So what are the messages? Generally, the message is that by virtue of the EU withdrawal Act, the intention is to transfer affected EU legislation into domestic law 'as is'. Now is not the time to be doing a full root and branch review of the law. Any deficiencies in the law as a result of Brexit will be corrected, but otherwise the system will remain unchanged. The majority of law therefore remain the same, even if the infrastructure changes.

From time to time on the spiritual path we find ourselves in a mud puddle of negative thoughts. This can be especially true when we are living in such challenging times. There is actually a gift in this mud puddle of ours if we choose to look more deeply into the murky waters.
Thich Nhat Hanh would call this diligence. In exercising diligence we are able to choose which seeds of thought we choose to water. For example, we might have a common human thought of impatience…perhaps at ourselves or others or both. We also have a seed of positivity and that would be tolerance and compassion for ourselves or others or both. We can choose to water either the impatience seed or the tolerance and compassion seed.
Of course, this decision making process means that we need to be aware of how we are feeling in the present moment. And that process requires that we have a practice of mindfulness. Being mindful and observing what thoughts are moving through us allows us to be the witness of our mind and to not to be pulled down into the mud puddle.
We can instantly choose the peacefulness of compassion rather than spend time swimming in the mud. Or we can swim in the mud long enough that our aware is triggered and then we come back to the present moment again…….with a smile knowing that we received the gift of feeling impatient and we now choose another more positive thought to water.

Buy a great new copier here around austin
When it comes to copiers, the one thing that has been perpetuated by manufacturers is basically that you need to get them new. However, in fact refurbished copiers might be every bit as good as new. In this post, we'll teach the method that you moves about buying refurbished copiers.
atg sales new copiers at great prices Austin tx
On the world wide web, if you've been online stores to buy used copiers from. Exactly like everything else, however, not every options are created alike. And there are some things you should remember before deciding on where to buy.
Having said that, when you're done searching for the saying �refurbished copiers� on the search engines or some other internet search engine, browse the search engine results. There are many issues you wish to be on the look out for, including: The extent of the selection, the standard of the selection, the warranty, and return and exchange policy.
There are numerous brands of copiers available. While Xerox easily comes up, there's also Konica, Ricoh, Kyocera, and lots of a lot more. Ensure that a shop you acquire from includes a wide range of used copiers. That is to successfully have a very greater potential for buying a model that actually works every bit as good being a another one.
In terms of the standard of the selection, you would like to select a store that guarantees they handpick the copiers and they fix their finds to revive them to their original quality. Most official distributors offer certification the refurbished copiers happen to be restored in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications. You might like to obtain stores that supply certified refurbished copiers, particularly if you not have the time to scour different websites.
Warranty is an additional essential point in your purchase. Whilst you can't expect refurbished copiers to offer the same warranty as new equipment, you should have some type of warranty – if the equipment stops working after a couple of months useful, you can have it fixed free. Still, unless you like what you bought, you ought to make certain that store you bought it from has some kind of return or exchange policy.
In relation to buying refurbished copiers,you really can't go wrong with a bit of time vetting different online stores using the different factors we stated earlier. In the end can't promise won't ever fail using your purchase, it is possible to a minimum of increase your probability of buying good items if you do this.
The amount do used copiers costs? They usually cost 50 % to 70 percent less than new equipment. You might need not only a huge difference in the price, we don't understand what is.
Anyway, before buying copiers, be sure what your needs are. Do you need high-speed copiers for monochrome documents, or do you want a three-in-one solution which combines a scanner, copier and printer into one machine? The reason being copiers are sorted according to their functions.

I don't mind mixing science and the metaphysical, but I do need some credibility under it all to hold the story and message together. High Life misses on almost all counts. The crux of the tale is, frankly, absurd and such a bad science fiction premise that I had to force myself to continue with the story. In addition, the emotional and metaphysical aspects of the story are, at turns, trite and, at turns, so self-referential as to be completely obfuscated.
Director and co-writer Claire Denis (Let the Sunshine In ) is no stranger to mixing narrative with metaphor. Perhaps there was a bigger point here she was trying to make, but it missed me almost entirely. Certainly there is commentary on love, sex, parenthood, and redemption. But there isn't a clear through-line that knits it together into a whole. We end up with something more like Dark Star meets Sunshine, but with all the negatives of both and few of the positives of either.
Honestly, I can't recommend this, even with Robert Pattinson's (Maps to the Stars) subtle performance and Juliette Binoche's (Summer Hours) rather frentic, untethered one. There are definitely better ways to spend a couple hours of your life than trying to pick apart this confused, philosophical mess.

Villablanca, Spain 2016 OCT.
Never been a big fan of blogging, but always comes the time when you either need it or either have to. I will try to post some of my stories about where I have been or what I have been doing during my lifetime. One of my passions is to travel, love to do it, love to explore the world. Recently I visited couple of my friends in Spain. Was amazing 9 days of doing n.o.t.h.i.n.g. The place we were is called Villablanca, closest city is Huelva. Small, nice city next to the seaside. To be honest, there is nothing to do just chill and having sunbath. During our visit we went to "capital city of that area" Seville. Very clean and beautiful city. Met an amazing English couple who live in Spain for nearly 2 years now.
Let me tell you some facts about great Andalusia "capital".
Seville (/s?'v?l/; Spanish: Sevilla [se'ßi?a], locally: [se'ßi(?)?a] ( listen)) is the capital and largest city of the autonomous community of Andalusia and the province of Seville, Spain. It is situated on the plain of the River Guadalquivir. The inhabitants of the city are known as sevillanos (feminine form: sevillanas) or hispalenses, after the Roman name of the city, Hispalis. Seville has a municipal population of about 703,000 as of 2011, and a metropolitan population of about 1.5 million, making it the fourth-largest city in Spain and the 30th most populous municipality in the European Union. Its Old Town, the third largest in Europe with an area of 4 square kilometres (2 sq mi), contains three UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the Alcázar palace complex, the Cathedral and the General Archive of the Indies. The Seville harbour, located about 80 kilometres (50 miles) from the Atlantic Ocean, is the only river port in Spain. Seville is also the hottest major metropolitan area in the geographical Western Europe, with summer average high temperatures of above 35 °C.
Seville was founded as the Roman city of Hispalis. It later became known as Ishbiliya[2] (Arabic: إشبيلية) after the Muslim conquest in 712. During the Muslim rule in Spain, Seville came under the jurisdiction of the Caliphate of Córdoba before becoming the independent Taifa of Seville; later it was ruled by the Muslim Almoravids and the Almohads until finally being incorporated into the Christian Kingdom of Castile under Ferdinand III in 1248.[3] After the discovery of the Americas, Seville became one of the economic centres of the Spanish Empire as its port monopolised the trans-oceanic trade and the Casa de Contratación (House of Trade) wielded its power, opening a Golden Age of arts and literature. In 1519, Ferdinand Magellan departed from Seville for the first circumnavigation of the Earth. Coinciding with the Baroque period of European history, the 17th century in Seville represented the most brilliant flowering of the city's culture; then began a gradual economic and demographic decline as silting in the Guadalquivir forced the trade monopoly to relocate to the nearby port of Cádiz.
The 20th century in Seville saw the tribulations of the Spanish Civil War, decisive cultural milestones such as the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929 and Expo '92, and the city's election as the capital of the Autonomous Community of Andalusia.
Anyway, check the pictures 🙂

As CVS evolves its health care operations, along with its pending acquisition of Aetna, the drug store boosted its fourth quarter income and sales.
In the fourth quarter, CVS Health posted company net income of $3.29 billion, or $3.22 per diluted share, versus $1.71 billion, or $1.59 per diluted share, in the year-prior period. In the fiscal year, the company recorded net income of $6.62 billion, or $6.44 per diluted share, versus $5.32 billion, or $4.90 per diluted share, in the fiscal year earlier.
According to CVS, the income increases primarily reflected the income tax benefit of $1.5 billion associated with the United States Federal Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Also, net income for the three months and year ended December 31 included $56 million of bridge financing costs associated with the company's proposed acquisition of Aetna.
Adjusted earnings per share for the fourth quarter were $1.92. Adjusted earnings per diluted share in the quarter surpassed a MarketBeat published analyst average estimate of $1.88.
Consolidated operating profit for the fourth quarter increased 3.6%, to $3.1 billion, year over year. CVS reported that the increase was partially due to improvement in gross profit in the pharmacy services segment. The retail/LTC segment gross profit increased, largely driven by improvements in front-store margin.
Consolidated operating profit for the fiscal year decreased 8.2%, to $9.5 billion, with the decline primarily driven by the previously-announced restricted networks that exclude CVS Pharmacy and continued pricing and reimbursement pressure in the pharmacy and retail segment, and other factors.
In the fourth quarter, net revenues increased 5.3% to $48.4 billion while revenues in the retail segment increased 0.3% to approximately $20.9 billion versus the period a year before. Comparable store sales increased 0.1% with front store comps, including general merchandise, declining 0.7% from the previous-year quarter. Seasonal cough and cold positively impacted the metric by 80 basis points. Hurting front end comps were softer customer traffic and efforts to rationalize promotional strategies, partially offset by an increase in basket size.
For the full fiscal year, net revenues gained 4.1%, to $184.8 billion while retail revenues decreased 2.1% to $79.4 billion with comps and front store comps both slipping 2.6% versus fiscal 2016.
Larry Merlo, CVS president and CEO, stated, "In 2017, we delivered on the four-point plan we set in place to return to more robust levels of growth. Our position in the evolving health care landscape is stronger than ever before, and we remain confident in our model and in our ability to make health care more affordable, more accessible and more effective."

NEW YORK — A crowded field of democratic hopefuls are already battling it out for the chance to defeat President Trump in 2020. This comes at a time when the nation remains deeply divided over key issues including immigration, health care and mounting gun violence. We hear from former New York Congressman Charles Rangel on these topics and more.
The NYPD is facing a mental health crisis with nine officers dying by suicide since the start of 2019. Experts agree the stress of the job, the stigma of mental illness and close access to a gun are all contributing factors. But does a climate of hostility and disrespect for the NYPD also play a role? We get expert insight and advice from Jeffrey Gardere, professor of clinical psychology at Touro College.
Plus, Marvin Scott takes a look back at the cultural phenomenon called Woodstock, 50 years later.

Today Allison spent the entire day in Connecticut. This was probably the first all full day alone with Eva so far. Don't get me wrong I am a very competent father. I was up changing diapers right away and now that Eva is on rice cereal and diaper duty is a little more odoriferous, shall we say, I can still hack it like a pro. But an entire day watching after this little person who is in need of a ton of attention. Well, that was the challenge. But I was up for it.
First off, I was not baby sitting, Eva is my daughter and as a good Dad I was taking care of her for the day. Allison fed Eva before she left so Eva was both satisfied and a mess. She likes to move her head from side to side as soon as the spoon gets close to her face, it makes for a very messy face. So for me the first thing I did was Tubby Time. Tubby Time is my thing, Allison feels that I should have tubby time because I am not home all day and this is a good bonding thing between Eva and me. Okay, I will go with that. My knees on the other hand are not a fan of tubby time.
Eva really likes the water. Our faucet and hot water is very stable so I now sit Eva in her little tub and fill it up so she can splash with the water from the faucet. She likes to splash. She also likes playing with toys when she is in the tub. So whenever I see a new Munchkin Rubber Ducky I get it for her. She has a ton of them and when she can take a tub in the big tub there are gonna be about 15 duckies in there with her.
After tubby time I got Eva dressed and we played for a while. We watched Transformers Animated (The only show I let her watch, she's gotta learn about the Transformers sometime.) Eva also played in her jumparoo.
She finally got tired and took a good little nap. She woke up in time for lunch and so I fed her a bottle and then attempted to feed her some food. Eva does not eat when I give her food unless Allison is in the room, so this was gonna be interesting. I tried a few spoonfuls and we were getting nowhere. Eva does like her sippy cup of water though, she tears through that like you wouldn't believe. So I got an idea. Her rice cereal and milk was pretty watery, so I poured it into her sippy cup and she did a really good job of eating her rice cereal. Sneaky, yes, wrong, well I am not sure about that.
After lunch we got ready to go to the Zoo. I love taking Eva to the Zoo. Correction, I love taking Eva to the zoo in the off season. The place was a madhouse. I see some of the worst behavior in the zoo. People are just terrible sometimes. Banging on the glass, roaring at the lions. Just a bunch of knuckleheads.
The big draw to the zoo was the brand new White Lion that debuted on Earth Day. He is just getting used to being part of the pride, (there are two other female lions and the zoo hopes to breed them as the females carry the white lion gene.) I'm sure that he is very beautiful but he was pretty sleepy and he rolled all over the wood chips so his fur was full of wood chips. But his eyes are so light colored and beautiful. I look forward to going to see this lion more over the years.
You can see the rest of the Zoo Pictures in this Flickr Set
After the zoo we zipped over to my comic book shop to pick up my subscription, then it was over to the mall to get some Fish Oil Capsules. Eva was asleep most of that time.
We finally got back home and played a bit more and then it was dinner time. I fed her a bottle which she took pretty easily, then I attempted food. She took a couple of bites of peas and then had no interest in the rice cereal or the water, so I didn't push it. I got her ready for bed, read her the nightly story and said prayers. I left the room and went to clean up from dinner. Eva cried the entire time (about 10 minutes.) I tried feeding her a little more milk but she wasn't having any of it so I put her back in bed, went to the other room and did some more cleaning up, when I came back she was asleep. So pretty easy day overall. (Well, it didn't feel easy at some points but how can you stay frustrated with this kid, I ask you, how?)

Smith's 3 touchdown passes lead Chiefs over Texans, 27-20
HOUSTON (AP) - Alex Smith threw for 243 yards and three touchdowns in the first half as the Kansas City Chiefs built a big lead and held on for a 27-20 victory over the mistake-prone Houston Texans on Sunday.
Travis Kelce caught two touchdown passes in the first quarter, the first one coming after Kansas City intercepted Brian Hoyer on his first throw as a Texan.
The Chiefs were up by 14 in the second quarter when Justin Houston sacked Hoyer, forcing a fumble. Kansas City recovered it and a 7-yard touchdown reception by Jamaal Charles pushed the lead to 27-6.
Hoyer struggled in his debut before Ryan Mallett took over with about six m
