How many first days can one woman have?!
I know lots of people can relate to this. I am starting the first day of a new plan to lose weight and get fit today. I am 12 stones and 8 1/2 pounds. The least I have been as a grown up is 12 pounds less than that and that was 2 1/2 years ago. I am sick of it. I want to do it but think I am also scared of losing weight. I don't know why. This time I want to get past that and be 'normal'. Here goes.....

Subject: Pre-Algebra
If x=2, what does y equal in y=2x?
To solve for y, you must use what you already know about the equation. It tells you x=2, so you will plug 2 in for x, which will make you equation look like this: y=2(2) Once you plug in 2 in for x, you will need to use the order of operations to solve. In this case, you will multiply 2 times 2 and you will get 4. So your final answer will be y=4
Subject: Basic Math
What is 8 squared?
8 squared translates to 8x8. To find out the answer you will times 8 by 8, which will give you a final answer of 64.
Subject: Algebra
if 7x+4=25, what does x equal?
To solve 7x+4=25, you must move the constant to the right. In this equation, the constant is 4. To move this constant you need to add -4 to both sides. The 4 on the left side will cancel out and add -4 to the other side will give you 21, which will end up giving you 7x=21. After this step, you will need to divide both sides by 7. After you divide both sides you will end up with x=3. To find out if this answer is correct you can insert 3 in for x into the original equation. example: 7(3)+4=25 once you insert 3 in for x, you will do the order of operations (PEMDAS). You will start at the beginning of the equation and go straight across. So you will take 7x3, which will give you 21. Then you will add 21 to 4, which will give you 25. Since 25=25, you have proved that x=3

November 9th/18th, 1999: Get Up Kids, At the Drive-In, Frodus... / Saves the Day, Grey Area, the Exploder... @ St. Andrew's Church, College Park, MD
Here's a flyer for two great shows at St. Andrew's Church. Maybe this STD show was the poop-doo show? I can't remember. That Get Up Kids show may have been the first show to "sell out" St. Andrew's Church. It was freakin' huge. Jamie booked the shows. I made the flyers. Woo.

From a preview of a Walt Whitman piece I'm working on….
I believe in you my soul…and the other I am must not abuse itself to you,
and you must not be abased to the other.
Loafe with me on the grass…loose the stop from your throat,
Not words, not music, or rhyme I want…not custom or lecture,
not even the best,
Only the lull I like, the hum of your valved voice.
I mind how we lay in June, such a transparent summer morning;
You settled your head athwart my hips and gently turned over
upon me,
And parted the shirt from my bosom-bone, and plunged your tongue
to my barestript heart,
And reached till you felt my beard, and reached till you held my feet.
The barestript heart, the barestript heart, and loosing the stop from the throat.
I've read it a million times, and still the emotions it provokes within me are so powerful that I cannot stand it. Why does it feel like pain?
I'll chicken out and take this down.

People encouraged to utilize free or low-cost health insurance programs
Saturday marks the start of open enrollment for 2015 health insurance plans.
The Connect for Health Colorado insurance marketplace has 176 plans to choose from for 2015.
What's more, any individual who makes less than $45,960 per year and does not have health insurance available through an employer can qualify for tax credits that can help offset monthly premiums, according to the Connect for Health website. For a family of four, the qualifying annual income to receive tax credits is $94,200.
A family of four that makes less than $62,000 per year, however, can qualify for free or low-cost health insurance state aid programs such as Medicaid and Child Health Plan Plus (CHP+), according to numbers provided by the Colorado Department of Health Care Policy and Financing
Individuals can apply and enroll in these programs any time of the year — outside of the open enrollment period — unlike the regular health insurance marketplace.
Colorado is one of 27 states in addition to the District of Columbia that have opted to expand Medicaid, making free or low-cost health coverage available to a much larger population, including more adults without children between the ages of 18 to 64.
"A lot of people just don't think they're going to qualify for it because years ago, the only people that would qualify for it was pregnant women and children," said Eligibility Coordinator at Northwest Colorado Visiting Nurse Association Jenny Earls. "It's expanded, so a lot more people qualify now."
Medicaid is a public health assistance program for qualifying individuals and families, including children, pregnant women, adults and the disabled.
The program includes doctor visits, prescriptions, mental health services, dental, x-rays and more.
Qualifying income levels are based on family size and the federal poverty level, which is $11,670 for an individual or $23,850 for a family of four in 2014.
Children qualify for Medicaid if their household income is up to 1.42 times the federal poverty level.
That means, in a family of four, children can qualify for the program if their household income is $33,876 or less, whereas adults in a family of four qualify with a household income of $25,524 or less, or 1.07 times the poverty level.
The applications are processed through the Social Services Department, however, the VNA is a certified application assistance site, meaning they are equipped to help people through the process.
"We help them wade through the muddy waters of the application process and help them gather items they need to speed up the process as much as possible," Earls said. "We can sit down and take a little more time to help people understand the application and make sure they answer the questions to the best of their ability."
The VNA is also a presumptive eligibility site, which means they can provide temporary coverage to women and children who submit applications for Medicaid or CHP+ while they are waiting for their applications to go through.
"We can actually put on temporary coverage for 45 days so they can start seeing a doctor immediately," Earls said.
If a person's application is denied, however, they only can receive the temporary coverage once per every 365 days, even if they reapply within that same time period.
Pregnant women, and their households, can qualify for Medicaid with income levels up to nearly twice the poverty level.
CHP+ is a public, low-cost health insurance for children and pregnant women who earn too much to qualify for Medicaid but not enough to pay for private health insurance, according to the DPHE, which administers the program.
The plan covers regular checkups, immunizations, prescription medicine, vision and even dental for children.
The program covers those who make anywhere from 1.43 to 2.6 times the federal poverty level. The income threshold for a family of four to qualify for CHP+ is up to $62,000 per year.
Because both programs are administered by the DHCPF, only one application is necessary to apply for both programs.
"When you apply for Colorado Medicaid, you are applying for both Medicaid and CHP+. You do not need to turn in more than one application for you or your family," according to the DHCPF website.
In 2011, 440 children were eligible for either Medicaid or CHP+ but not enrolled, according to the Colorado Health Institute, meaning they were missing out on affordable, high-quality care.
"If people qualify for it, we want to get them on it. They don't have to stay on it by any means," Earls said. "Some people having hard times — if they're going through a little rough patch, between jobs or something — it doesn't mean they're going to be on the programs for the rest of their life."

Comments on skiks/bruce hamilton's stuff
nice vamp!
This gives a sense of a huge space with a guitar sound that rips the fabric of space-time - really great!
Bruce this was like the 'thing inside'. Love the subtle in the beginning to the huge moments later and the hard cut at end!
OMG this is way awesome.. Just a total wide wide sound drone.. I love this It should be longer but the ending is great too.
Delightful piece and the parts all fit together nicely -- maybe the first mix is best in this case ;).
gorgeous / / wow !!
Dramatic and suspenseful
Like it. Laid back, but far from boring. Hard to explain how it made me feel, but I can imagine a movie scene which appears carefree but has mystery hovering in the background.Well done!
thanks guys. it was a Reason sampler patch (maybe a dulcimer?) retuned with LMSO and then with some stern LFO filters.
Well, that was different. I love the acoustic change up. The vox really make it.
Very nice. What was the instrument?
Very celestial - shining tapestry of stars.
Nice sounds
Sunflowers are a huge passion of mine - there is no such thing as "just sunflowers"! :) Pretty intense sounds you have here! Scary, potent, midnight sunflowers...
Wonderfully bizarre.

fantastic sound and lovely playing!

thanks you guys; the winners were announced a few days ago. I quite liked my entry and that's why I'm spreading it around now.
very nice rendition; loyal treatment, yet different enough to warrant sharing.
thanks re skree. the thing about noise (for me) is it can be so fun! there's a built-in visceral excitement and the challenge is harnessing it into musical contexts. man, Lao Jia is hypnotizing me!
very cool.

text: Wellness Health & Well-being Here's What Happens When You Hold Back Gas By Christian Cotroneo Social Media Editor Brock University Carleton University Christian Cotroneo is the social media editor at Treehugger. He is a founding editor at HuffPost Canada, and former writer at The Dodo and Toronto Star. our editorial process Christian Cotroneo Updated October 28, 2018 As this taxi sticker suggests, we live in an increasingly fart-retentive world. Zoenie/Shutterstock Share Twitter Pinterest Email Wellness Health & Well-being Clean Beauty There's nothing like a gastro-nuclear explosion to ruin dinner. Or a date. Or even a job interview. But we don't get much warning when our bowels decide it's time to discharge a little gas. In fact, we may feel a sudden pressure, followed by a deep internal rumble. Something wicked this way comes. The thing is, everyone's got to unleash that inner beast. In fact, the average human — men and women equally — contributes around 15 farts per day to the Earth's atmosphere. (Some people, like your Uncle Hank or this guy in the elevator, can wildly exceed that quota.) No matter how hard we struggle to hold back gas, it will find a way out. Diane Diederich/Shutterstock Now, just imagine how that Santa Claus at the local mall must feel. There's no way his boss is giving him 15 to 20 breaks per day. And yet, he holds strong. Think of the children! But just one sudden movement — a nervous giggle, perhaps — and the floodgates open. Hello, Stinky Santa. The thing is, Santa isn't doing his body any favors by keeping all that gas bottled up tight. In fact, there's a lot that goes wrong when we deny our stomach a chance to vent. But to understand the perils of fart-retention, one must first understand how flatulence works. The science of gas Research suggests we unleash about 15 farts per day — and it's usually perfectly healthy. Sabelskaya/Shutterstock Intestinal gases are a natural byproduct of digestive and metabolic processes. Even that sandwich you just had for lunch is probably being stripped down for nutrients, a biochemical conveyor belt that results in the creation of several gassy emissions. About 60 percent of those gases are nitrogen, with 20 percent being hydrogen. Carbon dioxide, methane and oxygen are also present. But the real stink factor is the tiny bit — about 1 percent — of sulfur. That's what gives a fart its elevator-clearing stench. At the end of the gas-creation line is tidy little apparatus whose name you don't often see in print: the anus. From there, those pent-up gases blossom into the local atmosphere. A fart is born. Now, what happens if it happens to be a really no-good-terrible-please-god-no time to bring such a thing into the world? You shall not pass! But at what cost? Never mind the major discomfort of trying to contain a gastro-tsunami. It can lead to a permanently distended belly. And, as Claire Collins, a professor in nutrition at the University of Newcastle, writes in The Conversation, that pent-up gas will always find a way out. Some gas, Collins notes, will be reabsorbed into our circulatory system and get exhaled in your breath. (Date killer, indeed.) Even scarier? The internal reactor may build up so much pressure, all the squirming and puckering in the world won't be able to hold it back. Those angry gases will blast through the back door, roaring vengeance and visiting hell on anyone who tries to hold them back. Even your date at the opera. It probably wasn't quite like this in the old days. Ancient humans likely expressed their bowels freely and even with some pride. There may have even been an element of musical artistry to the passing of gas. But an underrated hallmark of a civilized society is knowing when to clench our butts, and knowing when to just let go.

How to Sell Your Property Faster
- 16th Jul, 2019
- by admin
- categories: Tricks of the Trade
When getting your property on the market, you want to ensure that your home looks, feels and smells beautiful! Get your cleaning supplies, a bucket of paint and your handy man in action! Homes that are well prepared sell faster and achieve better sale price than those, unprepared ones.
First Impression Matters
There is nothing more that says about the state of your property than your fence. If the fence affects the curb appeal it should be fixed. If the purchaser is turned off by the state of your fence and your house-front, they my not even want to see the inside… Fix and straighten up the fence and give your front door a fresh coat of paint. Garden and pathways should be clear, tidy and free of fallen leaves. Your lawns should be green and short. The outdoor seating areas should look clean and inviting. Place a couple of large pot plants by your front door. They will frame the doors and the entrance will look pretty and inviting.
The Roof
Replacing an old roof can be expensive. However, leaks or broken roof tiles can cost you a sale. No building inspector would overlook the watermarks on your ceilings .The only way to deal with leaks is to clean your gutters and replace all broken roof tiles. Now you can go to the next chapter.
Paint the House
Ideally you would paint both, outside and inside. Its relatively inexpensive and you could do it by yourself. I recommend using the professional, its lot quicker and you won't risk of spilling paint all over your floors and furniture, just like I did. Having a fresh coat of paint will make a massive difference to the overall presentation. Go neutral, only some buyers would appreciate a green feature wall. Neutral coffee tones or warm greys will appeal to the mass market, but if you want to go for bold colours, ensure you paint all the architraves and trims in white to help balance the strong colour.
Make Your Floors Shine
Timber floors can be easily refreshed by removing years of built up dirt and grime. With new technologies, they can be restored to their original shine in one day and without sanding. Everyone loves the look and feel of beautiful timber flooring. If your home is tiled, you should repair the damaged and chipped tiles. You may have to put down new grouting as well. If you have carpets, ensure they are throughly clean and in good condition. If the floorboards are underneath the carpet, maybe get rid of the carpets…
Declutter and Store Away
You are selling the house, so you are almost a half way out. Pack your shoe racks, books and magazines. Remove your personal items, trophies, photos, mail, excess cooking books, etc… Store your memorabilia away from the house. Remove valuables, you don't want to worry about your jewellery, or the expensive watch collection during open house.
Clean, Clean and Clean
Whether you can afford to hire professional cleaners or not, ensure your home is dust free. Your windows are clean and your kitchen and bathrooms smell fresh and look inviting. Bring a sheen to every surface in your home. Check the tops of your cupboards, ceiling fans, clean windows and window sills, ledges, blinds, doors and door knobs, switches and power points, walls and skirting boards.
Get the Spark Back to Your Swimming Pool
Swimming pool is one of the best features you could have. The pool has to be sparkly clean and all the pool equipment has to be neat and tidy. The pool deck appearance is very important. Pressure washing the deck and adding a deep sheen by adding a pool deck sealer may be a good idea. Pool maintenance is one of the main concerns to the buyers. So the pool and the surroundings have to look clean, polished and well cared off.
Check the fence and gates and ensure the pool gate is closing properly. Pool safety is important and is often one of the major concerns when buying a property.
Hire Furniture
If you don't live in the house anymore, and the house is unfurnished, I recommend hiring furniture. While the empty rooms may appear larger, most people would have trouble visualising living there. Renting furniture is lot less expensive than buying it and once the house is sold you don't have to worry about it.
Professional Home Staging
If you are unsure the best way to stage your home, or don't have time on your hands, hire the professional. Interior decorator will select the right furniture, art and accessories to attract the buyers. There is lot more to staging than filling the rooms with furniture. Majority of buyers search for properties online. By taking the photographs of the rooms from the best angle and showcasing it's most prominent features, your property will stand out and have the best chance to get the attention it deserves. Watch your home sell faster and for a better price!
The cost will depend on a range factors. Styled properties would on average sell 10% above the properties that are not styled. It's probably best not to think of home staging as a cost, but as an investment.

Talk about your bleak mid-winters! It's not only cold here but the winds have taken over. The palm trees are in such a dither that I thought it was rain, hard rain. I hope the oranges aren't blown off the tree.
Thanks for all the good wishes for Patrick. They worked. He's back to his usual brush-begging self. We've already played chase at least once this morning. Mendy said I could keep the carrier since Patrick liked it so much. I have to find a place for it since it's pretty inconvenient having it sitting in the middle of the living room. Maybe it would make a good footstool though.
The pecan pie was a success. It looked pretty and tasted even better. Not many people showed up for knitting night so we got larger pieces than we might otherwise have. And it made a perfect birthday cake for Renee. The shop holiday dinner was fun even though a number of people who had said they'd be there didn't show up. I had pork tenderloin with Gorgonzola sauce. Tasty but a bit overdone. Like the pork chops my mom used to make.
I finished another holiday gift. A hat using a pattern from Hip Knit Hats by Cathy Carron. I like this book even though most of the pattern instructions are flawed. I got a couple of skeins of organic alpaca and have enough left over to make another hat. Perhaps foolishly but I think I'll have time before Christmas. I still have all those ends to weave in on the gloves. Maybe today while I'm at A Stitch in Time.
Now for the recipes.

thanks much for the recipes...

Had to chuckle over your pork chop comments! The first time I fixed pork chops for my husband (back when we were newlyweds) he was late coming home for dinner and the chops were dry and hard and a little burned. He loved 'em--said they were just the way his mother made them!

Why have scientific facts become easy to deny in 2019? originally appeared on Quora: the place to gain and share knowledge, empowering people to learn from others and better understand the world.
|Photo: Getty
Science is like Facebook in that the very things that make it work (in Facebook's case, share and connect) also seem to provide a veneer of legitimacy to those who want an excuse to deny it.
What makes science go is that it's technical and abstract, done in collectives, fallible, can challenge our values, can be passed on without repeating it, and is able to change nature.
That it's technical and abstract can appear to legitimate politicians dismissing it, saying "I am not a scientist." Mitch McConnell, for instance, saying that he's only interested in Kentucky's economy, not in global warming...
That it can generate knowledge that can be passed on means that we can take it for granted. Think politicians not voting for earth satellites or more scientific research because we have enough already.

Rangoli shoes
Wednesday, January 7, 2009
Recently I took on a special commission to embellish a pair of shoes for a client to complement her beautiful Tyrell and Brennan wedding gown.
Bronwyn had found a pair of shoes with a shape and style that were almost perfect for her dress. However they had been decorated with beading and sequins that were too fussy. As well as this, the beading colours were the wrong tones for the fabric of the dress.
The shoes were unusual, in that the upper parts were made from a fine gauze. This meant that I could un-stitch the original beading. It was also a suitable material for me to secure beadwork onto as normally a leather shoe is too tough to be able to get a needle through.
These shoes became a labour of love - let's just say that I now know why most 'designer' shoes are made in places like China where labour hours are much cheaper. But I took the job on as it was challenging and fun. I had already designed a crochet headpiece and matching necklace to match the lace of Bronwyn's gown so I used the same Swarovski crystal and pearls to embellish the shoes. The shoes were the final and very glamorous finishing touch to her gorgeous look.

If You Run Hot, These 10 Cooling Weighted Blankets Are Just What the Doctor Ordered
We're all about hygge-ing it up on the couch wrapped in your favorite blanket, or weighted blanket if anxiety is sort of omnipresent in your life nowadays. Take it from me, once you go weighted, you absolutely cannot go back. How could you when these babies live up to their promise to ease stress and insomnia?
The one caveat we have: if you normally like to be cool while you sleep or snuggle, weighted blankets can be too much, as their extra weight (usually created by microbeads that shape to your body) can lead to overheating. Luckily, we have a solution! These 10 weighted blankets will keep you feeling cocooned while also keeping you sweat-free.

Remember the story of the guy who was slapped at the dance when he met someone special but said all the wrong things on the dance floor? If not, read more about what happened and how I got involved with giving him a little advice – here.
I received an email from the "the girl" today and she is very happy and enjoying getting to know (John) better. She has realized that he was sincerely a nice guy and is happy she gave him another chance after his rocky first impression. They both sound like they have their acts together and both seem to be mature for their tender age of seventeen. It also impressed me that she has a good perception of herself and appreciates who she is as a person on the inside as well as the guys who do the same.
I asked her to keep in touch over their journey… so maybe we will hear more from their budding romance.
Perhaps those of us more than twice their age can learn a little lesson from their experience…perhaps.
Find yourself… keeping it real.

Malam Bashir Yankuzu, of the Federal University of Technology (FUT), Minna has called on youths to learned from the sacrifices of the founding fathers as Nigeria celebrates its 57thIndependence.
Yankuzu, who lectures in the Department of Educational services told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Minna on Saturday that the struggled of the past heroes should not be in vain.
"Nigeria is celebrating 57 years of independence but many children born during that period are now adults or even occupying positions of leadership but many of them do not have clear knowledge of what the country passed through before attaining independence," he said.
He attributed this lack of knowledge to why many were agitating for secession.
"What led to the first Biafra, how the war was fought and how the country finally became one as well the statements of those who finally surrendered to the Nigerian Army need to be well known by these agitators," he said.
He said that at leadership level, the citizens needed to be more enlightened on why and how to call their leaders to account for resources earmarked for development.
Yankuzu said that agitators for secession for example should
channel their grievances correctly and hold their leaders accountable for the kind of roles they played in past regimes, if they had done that, the country would be a better place to live in.
"The independence celebration is coming at a strategic time of Ashura that Muslims are fasting in appreciation of safety Allah granted for Prophet Musa and his followers.
"It is my prayer that Allah will save our nation under the leadership of President Muhammadu Buhari from the terrible state it has become,'' he said.
He called on Nigerians to be patient and support the effort of the present administration in its effort to fight corruption "to a standstill''.

The Hold Steady Heaven is Whenever
Published May 04, 2010Following the departure of moustachioed pianist Franz Nicolay, the Hold Steady said that their fifth record would be "less anthemic." Heaven is Whenever is devoid of the obvious "sing-along songs" that populated 2008's Stay Positive. But the music still feels anthemic, even if singing along will take a few extra listens. The vocals sound bigger and the Dixieland horns on "Barely Breathing" suggest the group are thinking outside their creative box, if only for a fleeting moment. Front-man Craig Finn has always come across as a man in flux: too old to identify with the kids, but living a lifestyle unfitting anyone his age. But here, Finn settles into the comfort zone in life, urging the listener to take his advice because "I know what you're going through/I had to go through that too," on "Soft in the Center." The reflective approach gives the music a greater sense of purpose than before. Finn often sings that he started this band because he was bored, implying that the whole thing is a bit of an afterthought. While he still maintains that stance on "The Sweet Part of the City," Heaven is Whenever sounds like he's finally acknowledging, somewhat begrudgingly, his place in the world. (Vagrant)

Some Great Women of Programming
The PodCast at Delphi.org – It frequently puzzles me that programming seems to be dominated by men when the founders of programming and many of the greatest programmers were women. I read an article that this may be contributed to by early home computers being advertised as game systems for boys, which tipped the scales temporarily. Here are a few amazing women who pioneered the computer programing field. Lady Ada Lovelace (1815 – 1852) Invented the idea of programming. Her father Lord Byron was known for his poetry. Lovelace was a poet of mathematics. [The Analytical Engine] might act upon other things besides ...

How do you find the right air conditioning contractor to install a new air conditioner for your home?
Here are 7 things which you need to search for.
1. Get some bids before you decide who to buy from. This may take impulse purchasing from it. Obtaining bids from over 3 firms is generally not necessary unless you simply cannot see someone you're familiar with. You can visit https://www.lcmair.com.au/ to find the best contractor for your AC installation.
2. Fly by night businesses pop up in almost any business and this business is the same. Even though the duration of time a business is not necessarily a true look in their quality of work it's a start.
3. Cost is important but should be a part of your total opinion on the machine and company you purchase from.
4. Request referrals. They should have the ability to supply a long list of individuals they've done.
5. Be sure that your installing contractor brings permits in your work. That is needed and is intended to protect you and maintain your setup legal. Whether you reside in a town or a county you need to find a license for your work.
6. Warranties are significant from the brand you purchase. Obtaining a fitting system isn't necessarily that important and also the title of this brand you purchase is generally not as important as who you decide to install it. But guarantees matter and they're an indication of confidence and quality that the manufacturer puts in their merchandise.
7. Don't wait till summer to purchase. Ac earnings are a supply and demand industry and you'll pay more when it's hot than you may when it's cool. Pre-season specials occur for a reason to make the most of these and save a little cash at precisely the exact same moment.
In short air conditioning is just one of these things that you don't consider before you actually need it. These tips can help you discover the appropriate contractor for your system wherever you reside.

COMMENTARY || Supreme Court ruling will chill reporting on scandals
Decision that police can access journalist's unpublished conversations with source runs risk of preventing future informants from coming forward, says U of A law professor.
By CAMERON J. HUTCHISON
The two biggest political scandals in the news right now—the Mark Norman trial and the Trudeau/SNC-Lavalin controversy—were exposed by a reliable source who secretly shared information with a journalist. Increasingly, this is the only viable way that scandals are brought to the public's attention in this country.
More traditional methods of uncovering wrongdoing or criminality—access-to-information laws that disclose government documents, and whistleblower protections that are supposed to encourage employees to disclose wrongdoing—are increasingly irrelevant.
As to the former, we know that much information is categorically off limits, delayed, destroyed, not recorded, or access is otherwise evaded. Whistleblower-protection legislation is almost not worthy of the name.
That leaves merely one avenue of exposing potentially criminal conduct that must be protected—disclosure to a journalist who will report the story. It takes a lot of courage to report wrongdoing to the media. You risk losing your job, privacy and reputation, being sued or even being criminally charged. You want to know that who you are, or what you say, will be protected at law. Otherwise why risk it?
This brings us to the Supreme Court's Vice Media case that was released late last year. It is not a corruption case. In fact, it involves instant-messaging communications between a journalist and a known jihadist who was not even seeking anonymity. Most of those communications were shared directly with the public through the journalist's reporting. Still, the police successfully obtained a search warrant for the non-published screen shots in the journalist's file.
The issue was whether police could access the journalist's file for criminal investigation purposes. The way in which the court resolved this case, unfortunately, is cold comfort to those who might consider approaching a journalist with their story.
There are two things of critical importance to be balanced in such cases. On the one hand, is there worthwhile evidence in a journalist's file to assist the police in their investigation? On the other, will giving police access to this information scare people off from coming to journalists with their stories in the future?
How can one tell if evidence they have not yet seen is likely to be helpful? The answer is that they can't in a definite sense. At the same time, if any information relevant to a crime might be helpful, then search warrants facilitate fishing expeditions.
In this case, the value of the screenshots was assumed with very little analysis. Nothing is said about what the screenshots might reveal. It would not be the identity of the source; that was already known. The take-away seems to be that any information theoretically related to a possible crime has value and should be accessed by police. In other words, fishing expeditions are allowed.
For determining whether giving access in a case like this might scare off future informants, the court was not so ready to make assumptions. Here, some evidence was required.
The reality is that these cases often pose a trade-off between two unknowns: what might be in that journalist's file versus what effect giving police access to it will have on future informants. One interest is sacrificed in pursuit of the other.
This is the latest in a long list of cases where courts have favoured the public interest in criminal investigation. It is also why the Supreme Court habitually refuses (as it did again in Vice Media) to give content to "freedom of the press" as found in the text of the Charter.
A proper Charter analysis would not allow this simple trade-off but would require the state to show these search warrants do not unnecessarily infringe on freedom of the press, which includes the freedom to gather news.
One wonders whether more criminal conduct might be exposed if journalist informants were better protected. In this sense, protecting journalist informants and assisting with criminal investigation may not be truly at odds with one another.

A Revolution in Floor Cleaning Tools
Keeping a business clean is not a simple task, but using the right mop bucket can make it easier. Whether it's a small business or large institution, a mop bucket and wringer is a necessary addition for everything from daily cleaning to surprise messes. Now, through SPC, customers can purchase the DuraLoc ™, a revolutionary new line of long-lasting, interlocking floor cleaning tools.
The right tools mean a better clean. Even the best floor cleaning chemicals won't work properly if they are not applied correctly. The right tools improve your cleaning and help cut overall cost of getting floors clean. The correct tools will also improve the chance your associates will follow correct cleaning procedures.
One Handle for Everything
Working with old mops and brooms makes cleaning ineffective. That's why Ecolab created the DuraLoc ™. It's a revolutionary interlocking system of cleaning tools specifically designed to clean and maintain commercial floors. The Duraloc ™ brooms, mops and squeegees come with an A-frame insert holder that locks onto the DuraLoc™ handle. This amazingly simple razorblade system allows all tool heads to be easily switched out. With the DuraLoc ™ system only the worn mop, broom and squeegee heads need to be replaced.
Eliminate cross-contamination
DuraLoc ™ also offers color coding tools that come in five different colors. The color sleeve locks over the handle and ensures a match to the right set of tool heads. Color coding ensures the tools are used in the right place, and keeps your environment free of unnecessary contaminants.
Strength That Lasts
The DuraLoc™ tools are made with materials that are virtually indestructible and will outlast any traditional mops and buckets by years. The DuraLoc™ is built from lightweight aluminum and overmold to add extra strength and durability. The universal insert holder screws onto the handle, creating a two-point connection with wide openings and robust threads. The handle and insert holder also come with a 3-year warranty.
The Big Dipper™ It's a Better Way to Scrub
The Big Dipper™ is a never-before seen accessory fitted to the deck brush that has been proven to increase deck brushing time by 70%.* When the deck brush is dunked into the front chemical bucket, the Big Dipper™ fills automatically with cleaning solution. It applies and agitates the floor cleaner in one simple step, saving time and ensuring proper procedures are followed.
- Solution dispenser ensures the correct amount of solution is applied
- Strong polyester bristles scrub out tough spots
- Extra-stiff center bristles make it easier to scrub stains out of grout The DuraLoc™ Mop Brush takes mopping to a whole new level. It attaches easily to the universal insert holder over the mop. Simply flip the mop over to scrub tough spots.
- Strong polyester bristles target stubborn spots
- Low-profile placement makes it ergonomically effective to flip between mop and brush
Removable Dump Bucket
The new DuraLoc™ mop bucket is so innovative it's amazing. Separate compartments, keep dirty water isolated from cleaning solution and help eliminate contamination for a better clean. The front compartment holds 17 quarts of cleaning solution and has a curved bottom to accommodate the Big Dipper. The rear water bucket is completely removable and can be lifted out and easily emptied, eliminating strains and accidents for a safer cleanup.

The eighth and final season of Game of Thrones has competition in the category of Epic Stories. The first part of the six-episode BBC 1 Les Miserables adaptation comes to PBS on Sunday, April 14 at 9 p.m. ET — the same time as GoT.
But do you hear the people sing? No. This version of Victor Hugo's novel is not – I repeat, not — a musical. Ensemble numbers forming barricades to song or not, the latest Les Mis adaptation still has all the ingredients of an epic: A cast that's more crowded than a soap opera's. A rivalry to rival those found in Billions. Multiple love stories. A dash of French history. An abundance of tear-jerking plot-lines. And revolution!
The last time Les Mis hit the big screen, Hugh Jackman played 24601 — aka Jean Valjean, the central character in the musical. The role has also been assumed by Gerard Depardieu and Liam Neeson, among many others.
Though you won't hear the people singing the song of angry men in the BBC version of Les Misérables, you will nonetheless be swept away.

Today's WooCommerce Office Hours was a welcome back to the USA. I had been traveling in Europe for two months and although it was technically possible to do WC OH it was too difficult schedule wise.
Glad to be back at it now though!
In this episode I flew solo and covered a bug in WC 2.1.9, talked over a new feature of WooCommerce Subscriptions and teased a new plugin that I'll be releasing soon.
WooCommerce 2.1.9 Variations Bug
In #woocommerce IRC Gabor Javorsky had asked about a bug in the latest version of WooCommerce related to setting up variable products. The bug occurs when the store manager is adding variations to a variable product and presses the Link all variations button.
Not all the variations are linked, and a random number of semi-linked variations are added. A workaround is to manually add and link variations. A fix for the bug is already committed to the master branch and ready to be released in the next version of WooCommerce.
WooCommerce Subscriptions Renewal Synchronize
The 1.5 version of WooCommerce subscriptions was released earlier this month. One feature introduced in the new version is the ability to synchronize renewals for subscriptions. In the old version the renewal for a subscription would coincide with the day that the customer signs up for the subscription. So if the customer purchased a subscription on 5 May, and the billing period was monthly the renewal would be charged on 5 June.
With the new version the renewal can be synchronized to a day of the month between 1 and 27, or to the end of the month. Set the Synchronization Renewal to 15th day of the month to charge all renewals on that date. So if a customer purchases a subscription on 5 May, they will not be charged until 15 May.
You can read more on the WooCommerce docs page.
Modifying a Subscription
Gabor asked a follow up question about modifying an existing subscription. He asked if a subscription was purchased for 1 year billing monthly every 1 month how he would change that to billing every 2 months.
The Subscription docs covers this scenario. The subscription order can be modified and the order meta data _subscription_interval can be changed from 1 (month) to 2 (months).
Sales Reporting
Doug asked a question regarding the sales reporting:
I have both for sale products and free give-aways that go through our WC store. The free products throw off the reports because there are so many of them that they're always shown as top sellers. I'm looking for a pointer in the right direction of how I might filter out the free stuff so I can better see what is truly selling best.
I did some cursory checking on the reporting and didn't see a way to exclude any products from the sales reports. I suggested this would be a good plugin idea – to have the ability to pull a report on a subset of products where products that are free, on sale, or in a category can be excluded from the reporting.
WooCommerce API or WordPress API
Tom asked if I've used the WooCommerce API yet and I have not yet done so. The API was developed by SkyVerge and introduced in the 2.1 release of WooCommerce. The best documentation is on GitHub and I also pointed out a cool client library built by Gerhard Potgieter.
New MailChimp Plugin Preview
I've been doing client work for a few months now and part of that is to build plugins for clients and then have them released as commercial plugins. In the video I showed a new MailChimp plugin that takes advantage of more of the Ecommerce 360 features available, uses the new 2.0 API, and does list segmentation based on products purchased.
The use case was from a client who sells physical products, community membership and training videos. He wants customers subscribed to lists based on what products they purchased. I'm excited about releasing this soon!

'Whatever you do or say, let it be as a representative of the Lord Jesus.' Colossians 3:17 (NLT)
As believers our role in life has changed. We no longer have the assignment of looking out for our own interests. Our job now is to represent the interests of Jesus. We are His face and hands and feet – showing up in the lives of others on His behalf. We represent Jesus in the hospital, we represent Jesus at the funerals, we represent Jesus at the weddings, we represent Jesus across the fence as we talk to our neighbours.
We are not of this world but we are in this world. We function as ambassadors for Christ; we serve at the will of King Jesus. We serve as spokesmen and servants for God's Kingdom – always prepared to give an explanation about the hope we have (1 Peter 3:15) while still remembering the world is not our home (1 Peter 2:11).
Question to consider
How can you represent Jesus in your world today?
Prayer Point
Pray for those in King's who have jobs on the frontline of our community – like teachers, the police, nurses, social workers and those in local government – that they may be faithful representatives of Jesus.
These devotionals include edited extracts from the Better Together book by Rick Warren, with additional prayer points for King's Church London. We are extremely grateful to Purpose Driven UK for permission to use the extracts.

Some people out there prefer to defend the government more and more in the name of national security. The government is supposed to keep us safe, they say. And to a certain extent they are correct. But the question remains: is what the government is doing in the name of national security actually keeping us safe? Some people, like myself, are rather skeptical of all the claims of national security to cover all the things we uneducated citizens are not supposed to question the government doing. Why? Well, the case of Rahinah Ibrahim is a good example. Continue reading

MALAYSIA'S men's hockey team stunned defending champions India in the semi-finals to inch closer to an early ticket for the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games.
Goalkeeper S. Kumar was the hero for Malaysia when the team won 7-6 in a nail-biting sudden death penalty shootout, after the match ended 2-2 at Gelora Bung Karno Hockey Stadium last night.
The first shootout ended 2-2 forcing the sudden death which saw Malaysia triumph 5-4.
Malaysia will take on Japan in the final tomorrow. The champions qualify automatically for the Tokyo Olympics.
The Tampin-born player, who made four saves in the shootout, credited the win to teamwork as they advanced to the final.
"I fell in the last shootout from India but I instinctively put my hand up and the ball hit it. I can say we got lucky. I told the players to focus on scoring the goals and I'll do my part to stop India from scoring," said Kumar.
"This is a team effort, we were down in regulation time but managed to get back into the game in the end. I may have made the saves in the shootout but my teammates did their part to score as well.
"We are proud of this performance but this is not the end yet, we need to regroup for the final match. We can't get carried away now."
Both teams were equally matched in the first half which saw the game stuck in a deadlock due to excellent defending from both sides.
The stalemate was finally broken in the second half after India's Harmanpreet Singh scored off a penalty corner in the 32nd minute but the lead only lasted five minutes as forward Faisal Saari scored a field goal in the 39th minute to equalise.
India got back in front almost immediately after Varun Kumar slammed the goal in through a penalty corner in the 39th minute.
With the match slipping off, Malaysia coach Stephen van Huizen resorted to power play by taking out goalkeeper Kumar and bringing in Faiz Helmi Jali to pressure the Indian defence in the final three minutes.
And the move paid dividends as they earned a penalty corner and Razie converted to draw level in the 59th minute and hold on to force the match into a penalty shootout.

The United Nations Secretary-General's Advisory Board on Water and Sanitation (UNSGAB) is embarking on its next strategic phase with the release of the Hashimoto Action Plan II.
The report of the symposium in Amsterdam, 5 November 2009, on the use of isotopes and tracers in hydrology, combined with the 2009 Henry Darcy Lecture, is now available online.
22 March 2010, worldwide • World Water Day
29 September–1 October 2010, Rotterdam • Deltas in Times of Climate ChangeDeltas have a lot to offer. They are close to the sea and inland waterways. Their soils are fertile. They are therefore the base of many large and fast growing cities. But as populations grow, deltas and their cities are becoming more vulnerable. Floods, land subsidence, traffic congestion, air pollution and salt intrusion loom up as common threats. Climate change aggravates these problems.
The study describes problems and progress made regarding transboundary flood management in 10 transboundary river basins in the UNECE region; tools for managing transboundary flood risk, for joint flood forecasting, flood warning and exchange of data, joint flood risk management planning and implementation; and useful legal and institutional arrangements for cooperation.
Countries need to adapt to climate change jointly without delay! This is the main message of the Guidance on Water and Adaptation to Climate Change, developed under the UNECE Convention on the Protection and Use of Transboundary Watercourses and International Lakes (Water Convention) and recently adopted by its 36 Parties at their fifth meeting (Geneva, 10–12 November 2009).
On the way to the 5th World Water Forum in Istanbul, Swedish and Turkish media interviewed Michael van der Valk during the World Water Week in Stockholm about water and adaptation to climate change, the role of the UN and the position of the Dutch.
In the field of carbon footprints we have seen how detrimental the absence of shared definitions and calculation methods can be. One common language is crucial, otherwise it is difficult to share information about actual footprints and reduction targets.

Concert to benefit the Pattinson Scholarship Fund
By Steven Hoffman
Elizabeth Hamilton, a 2008 graduate of Oxford Area High School who is currently pursuing a master's degree at Ohio State University, is organizing a concert to benefit the Laura Pattinson Scholarship Fund. The concert will take place on Wednesday, July 29 at 7 p.m. at the Oxford Presbyterian Church.
"I have not been back for an extended period of time since [graduating], and I am excited to share my love of music with the Oxford community," Hamilton explained. "I knew I wanted to have a concert, and the Pattinson Memorial Scholarship seemed like the perfect way to give back to the community that helped me become the musician I am today."
Hamilton will be joined by two local musicians, Julia Farber and John Gilmour, to perform an entertaining variety of flute music at the concert. Donations will be accepted to benefit the Laura Pattinson Scholarship Fund, which was established in memory of Oxford Area High School student Laura Pattinson. She was a band student, and her family created the scholarship to help Oxford students pursue college degrees in music.
Hamilton is currently pursuing a masters degree of music in flute performance at Ohio State University, where she studies with Allison Sincoff. Hamilton earned an undergraduate degree in music education from Ithaca College, where she studied with Suzuki instructor Elizabeth Shuhan. Hamilton was a recipient of the Laura Pattinson Scholarship from 2008 to 2012.
"The scholarship is so important for aspiring musicians who need a financial boost during their years in school," Hamilton said. "There are a lot of additional costs that are unexpected and difficult to prepare for when first going into the music field." She used the scholarship money to pay for music, flute repairs, books, accompanist fees and it even helped her purchase a piccolo.
Since graduating from Oxford, Hamilton has achieved a great deal of success in both local and national competitions. She won first prize in Ohio University's 2014 Concerto Competition, first prize in the 2015 Delta Symphony Orchestra Young Artist Concerto Competition Woodwind Division, and second place in the 2015 Lima Symphony Orchestra Young Artist Concerto Competition. She has also been a finalist in a number of other competitions including the Baroque Orchestra of New Jersey Young Artists Competition, the Rochester Flute Association Young Artists Competition, the Pocono Flute Society Young Artist Competition, the Pearl and Julius Young Artist Concerto Competition, and the Ithaca College Concerto Competition. Additionally, she was awarded the National Federation of Music Club's Ernest A Bluhm Flute Award in March of 2015. In April, she was the third prize winner in the Central Ohio Flute Association's Emerging YoungArtist Competition. In the fall semester of the 2015-2016 academic year, Elizabeth will perform Carl Nielsen's Concerto for Flute and Orchestra with the Ohio University Symphony Orchestra.
Hamilton said that the upcoming concert is free to the public and open to all ages.

Redsbaby pushchairs feature an ergonomic harness system, including a five-point buckle with a rubber easy-release press point. Redsbaby's harness system was designed to comply with the United Kingdom's pushchair safety standards (BS EN 1466:2014, BS EN 1888:2012 and BS5852), which require :
- The crotch strap be secured on the seat at a certain distance from the backrest;
- The harness waist straps be secured from the seat backrest and not come from the sides of the seat or pushchair; and the shoulder straps be adjustable at specific heights on the seat backrest depending on the weight limit the pushchair is tested to comply with.
All of these requirements ensure that your pushchair harness securely hugs your baby around the waist, from the front (crotch) and above their shoulders so they cannot wiggle out of the harness.

A lover of green beans lately, I try and find alternative ways of eating them. Like my Green Beans and Parmesan recipe this one is also a winner. Light, oriental and moreish anytime of the year.
Jot it down:
For approx. 6-8 people
- canola oil
- 1 ½ tbsp. sesame oil
- ½ kilo fresh green beans. Break off the end (the top and tail) as you wash them
- soy sauce
- toasted sesame seeds
Warm a large skillet or wok over medium heat. When the skillet is hot, pour in canola and sesame oils, then place whole green beans into the skillet. Stir the beans to coat with oil. Cook until the beans are bright green and slightly browned in spots, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in soy sauce; cover, and let sit about 5 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter, and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.
