As April 15 approaches, people all over the country are starting to think about their taxes. One of the major decisions most individuals have to make regarding tax season is the question of how they will file: will they do it online through a tax assistance website, or will they hire a local accountant for help?
While online filing does certainly offer a degree of convenience, we believe that as an accountant in Jamestown, ND, we have a lot to offer our clients in terms of filing taxes the old fashioned way. Here are six reasons why you should hire an accountant in Jamestown, ND this tax season, rather than use an online tax service:
- Local knowledge: Each state, including North Dakota, comes with its own income and property tax laws. A website might be programmed to account for this, but it cannot offer the same kind of local expertise that a local accountant can. If you want to maximize your return without bending any local laws, trust a local accountant.
- In-person assistance: Modern technology has achieved a wide range of amazing feats, but sometimes there is simply no substitute for talking to a real person. Each taxpayer is different, meaning that you probably have a few highly specific questions that no website could adequately answer.
- Accountability: When you file your taxes through a faceless website, who can you blame when the IRS claims you filed incorrectly? Local accountants have a vested interest in ensuring your taxes are done perfectly, which is why they can be counted on for more accurate and reliable results.
- Consistency: Once you file your taxes with the same local accountant once or twice, they will start to remember your family situation, what you do for a living and whether you have any special deductions or other factors affecting your taxes. That is one perk that a website simply cannot offer, no matter how "smart" it might be.
- No hidden fees: Many tax filing websites try to lure in new customers by claiming that their service is free. Once you start filling out your taxes, however, you may soon find that some special factor—you're a small business owner, for example, or you own more than one property—will require you to pay for the service. If you want transparent pricing, visit a local accountant in Jamestown, ND.
- Peace of mind: It goes without saying that tax websites probably utilize the best possible technology to assure privacy and security. That being said, nothing is 100 percent secure on the Internet, and once you click a button to file, you have no real way of knowing who will be able to access your information. Avoid this worry and gain some peace of mind by using a local accountant instead.
If you are looking for a consistent, reliable and experienced local accountant in Jamestown, ND for assistance this tax season, we hope you will get in touch with Craig S. Hanson, CPA soon.

Enjoy the subtle and complex flavours of Thai cuisine made more evocative because of the setting. You dine in the shadows of a 300 year old Banyan Tree. It's a restaurant experience like no other. Savour the fresh specialties that are made possible because of the resort's spice garden. Experience the curry wagon with the renowned Chef Prajaub, cooking Thai delicacies to your taste at your tableside. Some must tries will be the deep fried king prawns with garlic and pepper sauce, the spicy raw papaya salad, or the classic Thai green curry with chicken, just to name a few.
Banyan Tree is one of the first Thai speciality restaurant in Goa perhaps in India housed by the big brand Vivanta by Taj. The independent structure tiled to suit the Goan surroundings but still retaining the Thai influence, is set under a giant banyan tree which is over three centuries old. This is the open airy restaurant surrounded by lush green lawns is a soothing sight for stressed senses. Or you can opt for the inner air conditioned area which is dominated by a chandelier made out of coconut shells cascading from the ceiling. On some evenings the action moves outdoors where music and entertainment combines with the food to give you that special Thai experience.
The Thai chef prepares a new menu every year, but you can expect the Thai Green Curry and Pla Rad Prik, crispy fried fish made with fresh local catch at all times. The items have a distinct flavour of the herbs and coconuts. For starters, there's Coconut Seafood Soup and Spring Rolls. Their signature dishes include Spicy and Sour Prawn Soup, Crispy Fried Vegetables in roasted chilli sauce, and Sweet Water Chestnuts in coconut milk.
A delightful main course item is the Choo Chi Goong Mangkon, which is diced lobsters in red curry sauce and a delicious item. Sample also the River Crab in a spicy curry sauce. You can also enjoy some gourmet Thai-style stir fries with vegetables, beef and chicken. In seafood, go for the amazing deep-fried King Prawns with garlic and pepper Sauce. Like the roots of the Banyan Tree the chef's have worked on preparations from all over Thailand and brought it here for the experience. And it is a 'gourmet' experience.

This grand, Victorian two-storey corner spot comes with quite the pedigree. It made its name as Buzo, one of the first trattoria-style spots to really lift Sydney's game on Italian cooking. More recently it was the home of young, talented trio, Jemma Whiteman, Mike and Berri Eggert, whose restaurant, Pinbone, won hearts with whimsical, parfait-topped chocolate crackles. The latest shift is a return to the illustrious Italian name under the stewardship of Phillip Fikkers and Mark Campbell from Macleay Street Bistro; but there's a twist - it ain't Italian anymore.
Start your evening downstairs in the bar with a navy-strength Negroni ($18) and some clever Pickled Red Cabbage Crackers ($8) topped with dabs of Parmesan custard.
Venture upstairs for Beetroot and Goats Curd Salad ($19) dotted with honeycomb shards and smoked almonds. In case you haven't already guessed, Head Chef Jason Dean, enjoys "playing with textures and colours in food, and trying not to take it too seriously."
Dean has been tasked with gently shifting diners away from the spot's strong Italian ancestry with a six course Evolution Menu ($75/person) that's designed to be lighter and fresher than the rustic Italian this spot was once famous for. Confit Kingfish ($35) served with Jerusalem artichoke, crisp red cabbage and green edamame shows off this new menu aesthetic quite nicely.
Tucked under crisp kale leaves and framed with white radish, Cured Wagyu Tartare ($20) is an affable, healthy-looking version of this popular dish. Even the decadence of duck is tamed by presenting the usually rich protein as Duck Ravioli ($32) in a basil and wild mushroom broth.
Never fear, while the Malt Banana Parfait ($15) with coconut yoghurt, white chocolate and blueberries sounds almost healthy, it eats like a late night stoner breakfast.
The wine list's Italian entries are made easy in the hands of competent and personable Maitre d', Stephen Laing. And being Woollahra, you can even BYO ($14) on Wednesdays.

My friend recently likened life on a college campus to living inside the computer game "The Sims."Obviously, this comparison is not perfect because of minor details like our human freedom, or, more heartbreakingly, the fact that typing "rosebud" onto my bank statement will not make more money magically appear in my checking account. But I think that her analogy does get to the heart of the matter: That in a lot of ways, living on a college campus is like living in a mini-metropolis. Certainly I am biased, but I think this holds especially true for Georgetown. So many aspects of my daily life here are intrinsically linked to my peers and friends.
What, for instance, am I going to do when I leave college and encounter real issues with a bank? When I can no longer stroll into the Credit Union and bother a student working on the teller line, only to be redirected to a friend sitting behind the member service desk? When I lost my wallet a week into my freshman year, I frantically called my good friend who had just been hired asking him to cancel my debit card. ("Immediately! Right now! Drop what you're doing! And can I borrow $20 for dinner tonight?") Something tells me this is not how one proceeds with such things in normal life.
Or when I go to get a cup of coffee. I order from my friends so I can ask for just a little extra of this or less of that, imploring them (rather unfairly) to be fast because I have two minutes to get to my next class. And they understand — because they just came from class themselves.
I think about the day when I turn on the radio during my morning commute to work (this presumes, of course, that gainful employment is in my future … just go with me here) and I do not hear the voices of my best friends talking to me over the airwaves. Which of course also means that I will not be able to run over to the station and force my way into the studio to heckle the disc jockeys, or incessantly call in to request songs or extol the virtues of indulging a Taylor Swift weakness.
There are countless other examples of this phenomenon: Stopping to pick up groceries means chatting with friends in line or at the cash register; catching up on the news as written, edited and compiled by peers; going to hear a concert or see a play and waving to friends on stage, cheering on a team of your peers from the sidelines; grabbing dinner at a favorite local restaurant and having your roommate as your waitress.
And here in this mini-metropolis, (the "bubble" of a college campus that I heard so much about growing up), everything is possible. College life levels the playing field. The accessibility in this small corner of reality is unparalleled. Here pursuing absolutely every whim or small ambition involves merely sending out an email, attending a general interest meeting or chatting with a friend. As a result, the world we carve out for ourselves during our time here feels remarkably familiar; in many aspects, we are its only inhabitants (aside from the professors, administrators and countless other faculty who make all of this possible).
When my mom purchased our first PC before we even had the dialup Internet set up, she installed the computer program "Busytown," based on the children's books by Richard Scarry for me. I must have been around 5 or 6 and was positively enthralled as I watched the townspeople move back and forth across the screen, waving to each other and going about their daily lives, perfectly content in this little world of theirs. You could click on various options, visit various storefronts or homes, but often I was happy to just sit and watch it all unfold. I entertained daydreams about what it would be like to live somewhere like that. How ridiculously great that would be, having a sense of community, of belonging?
It seems like I encountered a breed of "Busytown" here at Georgetown.

The big cat chat stall held last weekend at Michelham priorys poultry show from the Ashdown forest poultry club was a great success.A fair few very interesting sightings and anecdotal evidence of big cat activity throughout East Sussex was presented the most notable of which,to me,were the pair of sightings from the Long man of Wilmington(long legs,small head,sandy brown) and Horam(long neck,legs,small head,sandy brown) both were around 18 months ago and the witnesses came on different days.The 2 places are 9 miles apart as the cat runs and the descriptions were identical and not of the more often "stocky but sleek legs the same height as the body"variety.Could well of been long legged cat descriptions and will certainly go down in my book as such however the relationship between the shorter and longer legged big cats could well be closer than previously thought.Cracking weather,top class venue,very friendly people and extremely well kept birds were all the ingredients needed for one of the best ways to while away a few hours in mid spring that i,ve come across in a long time.Plans were made to run a similar stall at the country fair held at Michelham priory in high summer so see you there!

Jindabyne Connect – July 26
10 Kosciuszko Rd
Jindabyne NSW 2627
Jindabyne Connect is informal business networking and updates.
- Dan Zylinski – Click n Ride
- Claire Rogerson – Jindabyne Skatepark Project
- Anna Jane Linke – Lakeside Scavenge
- Scott Harris – Harris Associates
- Thor Slater – Snowy Mountains Innovation Centre
- And more…
Come along to:
– listen to people who give 2 minute updates or intros to their business
– tell the group about your business in a 2 minute slot (if you are comfortable),
– meet other businesses,
– share ideas,
– find out about business support systems like SRBEC/ASBAS and grants that may be available from local, state and federal government.
What is Jindabyne Connect?
Firstly it is that business meets business and you never know who you might meet or where the conversation might go. Many of our attendees have had positives meetings as a result of coming to Connect and partnerships have developed as a result. Not only can you meet a new person or business but you often find out something new about the people you already know because you stopped to talk about your business and focus on it for an hour. Regularly people have come to Jindabyne Connect and come away with a business opportunity.
Secondly the pitches are designed to be a way for a business to highlight themselves through asking for help from the community, bringing an opportunity or challenge to the community, a need for partnership or new challenge from an experience that the business has had. It is not about pure business promotion but a good pitch and a good idea will promote you and your business.
Thirdly we try to include a speaker from Council, NSW Government, or Federal Government or other government bodies such as BEC or RDASI each month. This gives you the opportunity to interact with these representatives, ask questions and get information on what they are doing for the business community. That may be a business evaluation program, a council development, upcoming strategy in town, a grant that is available for applications or a new business program.
Finally, you get what you put in, so if you turn up with business cards, ready to engage, ask questions and see what you can find out, you might find a partner or new customer – that's a good outcome for an hour of your time.
Speaking & Sponsorship
We average an attendance of 30-35 each month, and are growing, so come along and talk about your business.
Connect events are available for sponsorship by a local business to provide more exposure to the audience, and to help cover the costs of drinks and nibbles.
If you would like to speak or sponsor this event please contact Duncan Isaksen-Loxton 0416 325 673 to book in.
Jindabyne Connect is an initiative of the Jindabyne Chamber of Commerce, Snowy Monaro Regional Council and Ausindustry with the goal of developing, growing and supporting our business community.

India's brutally violent occupation of Kashmir took yet another deadly turn on 1st April 2018 as at least 20 people were killed and another 200 injured in clashes in southern Kashmir. This was the worst loss of life in a single day for years and all of the blame needs to be placed squarely on the shoulders of the Indian government. State forces began indiscriminately firing on protesters who were doing nothing but exercising their inherent right to free speech and assembly. India, as it always does, blamed the violence on 'militants' – a lie that is immediately exposed by the fact that many of the injured and dead are children. It is the logic of the coloniser to see anyone who protests its illegitimate rule as a militant or terrorist. Just as with Ahed Tamimi in Palestine, the occupying force realises that the bravery and suffering of children can awaken minds to the reality of occupation and so tries to tarnish it with epithets, arrest and cold-blooded murder. Even though the Indian army is armed with guns, tear gas and rubber pellets, it denounces teenagers who have only stones to express their anger at the injustice being meted out to them as hardened terrorists.
In response to the violence by security forces, liberation groups in Kashmir have called for a strike. More clashes are expected as Indian troops are seemingly preparing for a fight. The only way to bring an end to this inhumane occupation is for the international community to wake up to the abuses it is tacitly endorsing. Yet, apart from Pakistan Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, who said India would never be able to silence the people of Kashmir, there has been no statement from anyone else. The UN has particularly disgraced itself by turning a blind eye to India continually flouting UNSC resolutions on Kashmir. UN fact-finding missions are not allowed into occupied Kashmir and there is not even a UN representative for Kashmir yet. The reticence of the international community can be partly attributed to fear of upsetting a burgeoning superpower like India and partly for reasons of crass commerce. Everyone wants an entry to the lucrative Indian market and is loath to take on the Modi government. India knows it can wage its campaign of violence with impunity. The only resistance it meets is from the brave Kashmiris who daily risk their lives to protest the occupation. But for them to succeed they need the rest of the world to finally sit up and take notice.

With the opening of Henry the Eighth, The Atlanta Shakespeare Company has officially completed performing Shakespeare's entire canon for a second time.
Shakespeare's History saga continues. Here we get to know Henry VIII as a virile young man bouncing between his loyal wife Catherine of Aragon and other women in his court. Full of grand pageantry, watch the coronation of Anne Boleyn and the christening of Elizabeth and listen to the famous speeches the noble Duke of Buckingham, the grotesque Cardinal Wolsey and Queen Catherine give as they all fall from grace.
Historical Note: During a performance of Henry VIII in 1613, a stage-cannon was fired which caused the thatched roof to catch fire and Shakespeare's theatre burnt to the ground.
A part of The Shakespeare Evolution Series!
Join the cast and crew members for a lively Question and Answer session on Sunday June 2 after the show!
Celebrate our completion of the canon for a second time on Opening Night (June 1). We will have free hors d'oeuvres in the lobby before the show and a champagne toast with the cast and staff after. Dress as swanky as you want!
Join Orpheus Brewing for a free pre-show beer tasting for anyone coming to see Henry VIII on Friday, June 7th. An Orpheus Tasting Specialist will be featuring their new recipe of Transmigration of Souls and a brand new brew Choosers of the Slain. Tasting will be from 6:15-7:15pm.
Read the Plot Synopsis
Henry VIII Synopsis
Henry VIII dances with Anne Boleyn at Cardinal Wolsey's London mansion, York Place. The Duke of Buckingham (Act II) is condemned to execution on a charge of high treason raised by Wolsey. At the inquiry into Henry's marriage, Queen Katharine (also worked against by Wolsey), leaves the court at Blackfriars to "appeal unto the Pope". Wolsey's efforts to stop the King from marrying Anne are discovered, and more evidence of intrigue that will lead to his dismissal.
Secretly, the King marries Anne who (Act IV) is crowned Queen. Katharine (who has heard of the death of her enemy, Wolsey) dies at Kimbolton. Gardiner, malicious Bishop of Winchester, tries to bring down Cranmer, the new Archbishop of Canterbury (Act V), but the King intervenes. Cranmer, as godfather of Anne's child, Princess Elizabeth, prophesies at her christening that she will be "A pattern to all princes…"

Bardometer RatingHow difficult is this Shakespearean play to grasp? On a scale of 1 to 10.
What does rating this mean?
These plays are extremely passionate and heavy on religious, historical and/or political content. The language is complex and the themes are dark. We provide a synopsis in the Playbill for these plays which will explain any historical or political elements you may need to know. There may be increased violence, gore and sexuality (though there is never any nudity). If we feel a show contains a plethora of Graphic Elizabethan Poetry we will put that disclaimer in the blurb about the show
Note for all plays: The performers of The Atlanta Shakespeare Company are specially trained to make Shakespeare's text and intention clear, no matter the plot or the subject matter. They know precisely how to get to the emotional core of each line, each moment, each scene. We promise you will understand everything! Leave the heavy lifting to us!

Artist encourages healthy skepticism with 'Ain't Necessarily So'
Lined up two-by-two, the eight green shooting target cutouts are identical except for mouths painted on small squares and affixed to their featureless faces.
The eighth — a stand-in for artist Ed Saavedra — has only eyes.
Titled "The Paper Martyrs," the installation is part of "Ain't Necessarily So," a solo exhibit of works by the 34-year-old multimedia artist currently at Sala Diaz. It creates a striking image — one that Saavedra hopes will make people stop and look at something that otherwise might make them turn away.
SAN ANTONIO — Each of the figures with mouths represents a slain activist or politician. There are civil rights icons Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X; Black Panther Party leader Fred Hampton; Colombian presidential candidate Jorge Eliécer Gaitán; Congolese President Patrice Lumumba; Chilean President Salvador Allende; and labor activist and songwriter Joe Hill.
"It's people who (it) could be argued were speaking uncomfortable truths," said Saavedra, who runs Fl!ght Gallery with Justin Parr.
Some might say the same of Saavedra. A slight figure with a wry, laid-back demeanor and a penchant for wearing baseball caps and plaid pants, Saavedra creates work fueled by a righteous anger at the social-political status quo, though as often as not, his messages are spiked with a healthy dose of humor. Other works at Sala Diaz include "Law! Stay Away," a painting of a lit veladora, or prayer candle, with a depiction of police brutality on the label; and "Imitation Security Camera," a painting of the packaging for a piece of fake surveillance equipment.
The title of the exhibit is a reference to a song recorded by Willie Nelson, a favorite of Saavedra's. "Ain't Necessarily So" ain't necessarily the show Saavedra envisioned for his solo turn at Sala Diaz.
"I've been to some really great shows that transformed the space, and so that's what I imagined I would do when I did a Sala Diaz show," he said.
As it is, Saavedra found himself in a bit of a time crunch. In March, he collaborated with Parr on "They said we looked suspicious ... " a performance piece at Clamp Light Gallery. Then in April, Saavedra and Parr moved Fl!ght Gallery from its home of eight years at 1906 S. Flores to its current digs at the Blue Star Arts Complex.
Hardly pausing to take a breath, they opened the new space for First Friday in May with a group show organized by Saavedra. All of that was time he was not working on the Sala Diaz exhibition, he points out. A few days before the opening of the show, the paper targets had yet to be mounted on fiber board and Saavedra was still making decisions about the installation.
"It's pretty crazy, but I'm used to it," he said. "It's not my first rodeo."
More Information
Indeed, it's not. At times, it's easy to forget just how young Saavedra is because he has been involved in the art scene in one capacity or another for so long.
A graduate of Clemens High School in Schertz, Saavedra, who moved to San Antonio in 1999, grew up with art, thanks to a tía who "probably before I could crawl, gave me a pencil" and took him and his brother to museums and galleries.
Growing up in a household with extended family, he had ready access to plenty of subjects for early forays in portraiture. Saavedra took art in junior high mostly to get access to art supplies. But in high school, he found a creative outlet working on a zine with a friend. It contained "borderline libelous material, funny stuff, and a lot of my art," Saavedra said. "I would do all the covers and little cartoons and then I wrote some little stupid editorial things."
It was enough to impress the arts editor at the San Antonio Current, who offered Saavedra a gig. Freelancing evolved into a full-time job.
As Saavedra's stint in journalism was winding up, he was beginning to show his work in San Antonio galleries. For his first solo show at the Honey Factory, a space run by Anjali Gupta and Robert Tatum, he donned a priest's garb and adopted the pseudonym Brother Fetus — a play on the name of Brother Cletus, a local Marianist brother and artist — for his first solo show in 2002. About three years later, he joined founding director Parr at Fl!ght, taking on the role tongue-in-cheekily defined as "senior creative co-conspirator."
Leading up to the show at Sala Diaz, Saavedra had a solo exhibition at Hello Studio, his first in San Antonio since 2011's "Requiem for an English Major," at the Blue Star Contemporary Art Museum, a deeply personal installation about a friend who committed suicide while in custody at the Bexar County Jail.
Gupta, co-director of Sala Diaz, describes Saavedra as a "phenomenal painter," but favors his object-based work.
"I think that his agenda, his political message, is much clearer in the objects," she said.
Artist Franco Mondini-Ruiz is a long-time supporter of Saavedra's work.
"Ed's work is very loyal to his take on political issues and which is not always a popular take — I think a very truthful take on things, but not popular. So his art deals with things like police brutality and unfairness and political injustice and all these things that don't sell real well. But they do sell," Mondini-Ruiz said. "There's a rage almost in his work, and an edge. And when you meet with him, he's very gentle and very kind. He has a soft heart, but his intellect is very sharp and his artistry is where he exerts his politics and his disappointment with the ways of the world."
Saavedra's next series of paper martyrs will be women. He already has identified eight he would like to represent. Saavedra himself will remain as the observer.
"It's not like necessarily I'm aligned with everything that came out of any of those mouths," he said. "But I'm aligned with the spirit."
"Ain't Necessarily So" is on view by appointment through Aug. 24 at Sala Diaz, 517 Stieren, 210-473-9062, www.saladiazart.org.

Skip to 0 minutes and 12 seconds The main driver for BIM implementation in our business initially was our customers. So, it was customers like Birmingham City University. The main driver for implementing BIM within BCU is the structured information delivery approach offered by a template such as BIM level two. When applying BIM consistently on all projects we essentially collect a database of the entire estate, it's consistent and has integrity. This data helps plan our facilities management, our maintenance planning or space planning.
Skip to 0 minutes and 48 seconds So, in terms of Severn Partnership's own journey into building information model we started off with a very detailed two year plan where we actioned everything we needed to do from hardware recommendation through to training through to creating a building information modelling plan, through to educating our clients on what to ask for. Only when we'd actually got that journey set out did we start to actually make our professional service available to the market. A number of key issues were considered before implementing BIM on our capital schemes. For example, we decided on a particular exchange file format early in the process.
Skip to 1 minute and 25 seconds Essentially all of our BIM models are created in which reduces the need for extensive training further in the operational cycle of the building, ensuring that we can operate and use those models to update and extract information from at any one point in the future. As we were developing we couldn't sometimes separate some of the complexity from the strategy and I suppose one of the key things we've realised now is that you need to keep it simple, the KISS principle is absolutely fundamental if you're going to win hearts and minds to be able to deliver quite a significant change like that.
Skip to 2 minutes and 4 seconds To ensure that we do not encounter much resistance when implementing BIM on the project it is essential to set out employer information requirements early in the process, and also very clearly so that roles and responsibilities are understood clearly within teams and also they have the opportunity to bridge any skills gap they may need. The first thing is that nobody actually likes change which makes it quite difficult to start with. People don't really understand why they should be changing.
Skip to 2 minutes and 34 seconds For people to be readily accepting of a change you need to try to make their lives easier or get an obvious benefit from it and sometimes it's not always been obvious but it's also been there, the negative connotations that have been associated with BIM that are being oversold of going to be returning massive return on investment for us and those not really living up to those returns yet.
Skip to 3 minutes and 5 seconds If the management team has the will to invest in it and put the time, effort and cost into creating proof of concepts and workflows, so the team who were delivering building information modelling as part of projects were not battling the management to say this is a good thing to do from the top down all the way through the organisation the will to do it was there.
BIM case studies
Watch the video exploring three Building Information Modelling (BIM) case studies and make notes on the differences you observe.
In the video:
- Chris Johnston of Willmott Dixon discusses BIM implementation for large projects
- Elena Simcock of Birmingham City University explores BIM implementation for public projects
- Nick Blenkarn of Severn Partnership explains BIM implementation within Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs)
Your task
- What were the differences between all three BIM case studies?
- How did all three experts approach the method of implementing BIM practice into their own organisations?

What Causes Heel Pain
There are not one but many causes of the pain that we feel directly under the heel. The main cause of the same is what we commonly call heel spur. Medically referred as Plantar Fasciiitis, the treatment of the same depends upon the alternative we select to ensure a speedy recovery from the same. The methods also determine as to what problems & consequences one can expect during the recovery period.
There is a structure at the bottom of the foot that is tight & ligamentous which is required for a person to stand up straight or in an arch. This structure is attached to the calcaneus bone and is located directly underneath our heel. The width of this structure is about two centimeters underneath our heel and then it broadens as it moves further towards the toes where it is attached to them. Just before entering the toes, this structure is known to split into five different slips, each one entering in to one toe. This will help you understand as to why the epicenter of pain is the heel, because this structure is really small in that region.
The foot's bony alignment serves as the structural framework for our body and it enables you to arch or stand erect. If this framework begins to flatten out due to any reason, then the plantar fascial band will help in resisting this flattening which is abnormal. Thus this band will undergo a lot of stress and the maximum amount of stress will be transferred to the heel region as that is the smallest and also the weakest part of the plantar fascial band.
An interesting point to make note of here is the fact that the pain which we associate with a plantar fasciitis or a heel spur as we popularly call it is known to be very specific. Many people are known to describe the same as a sharp pain resulting out of the tightness of the tissues and compare the pain felt with that given by a nail being poked in to the heel. This pain is known to be at its worst possible moment in the morning when a person wakes up and gets out of the bed for the first time after a long interval like sleeping for the night.
There is an excruciating pain when a person tries to take the initial four to five steps. It is then known to subside slowly as the foot begins to warm up and get used to movement. The pain can last for anywhere between a few seconds to as long as forty five minutes.

£995 Virgin Upper Class return – London to Chicago with free stopover – book TODAY ONLY
Links on Head for Points may pay us an affiliate commission. A list of partners is here.
For some reason, Virgin Atlantic is having a one-day-and-a-bit Flash Sale on seats in Upper Class from London to Chicago.
The fare is just £995 return!
Here is an example for October I got to price easily over at the Virgin website:
Here is the best bit. You are, in theory, allowed a free stopover in:
- New York
- Atlanta
- Boston
- Detroit
- Minneapolis
- San Francisco
- Washington
- Miami
- Orlando
- Las Vegas
- Los Angeles
- Seattle
- Philadelphia
A second stopover can be added for £125.
The stopover rules mean that in theory you can use the £995 fare to get to any of those places, and not bother seeing much of Chicago at all! For example, you could do London to Los Angeles (stopover) to Chicago (must spend a Saturday night in Chicago) to London.
If you choose not to fly directly to Chicago, you will either be doing the entire trip on Delta using Virgin codeshares or on a mix of Virgin Atlantic and Delta.
If you want to stopover at somewhere other than Chicago, you should use delta.com to book. Under 'Fare Class' select 'Business (Z or higher)'. When you are shown flights, you MUST only select those marked 'Business (Z)' or 'First (P)' which will be the cheap ones.
Here is an amazing itinerary which I priced at £896 plus £227 tax (the price goes because of the 2nd stopover). Note that I spend a week in Atlanta, a week in Chicago and a week in New York!
You must book this flight before midnight on Friday 28th August. You can travel at any point until the end of June 2016, as long as you can find seats. Remember that you need 'Z' in Business Class.
I can't find any official online information about this deal but it is definitely NOT an error fare. If you want to learn more about Virgin Upper Class, take a look at their website here. The Clubhouse lounge at Heathrow is regarded to be one of the top 3-4 airport lounges in the world.
Have a play around at virgin-atlantic.com and see what you can find ….

Every year in February, Kettering Health Network pauses to recognize American Heart Month. Take the time this month to make some heart-healthy changes for your whole family and beat back heart disease.
Keep your kids on a heart-healthy path
It's never too early to start establishing heart-healthy habits for your children. While children rarely get heart disease, the process leading to adult heart disease—the gradual buildup of fat, cholesterol, and other substances in the arteries—can begin in childhood. This can put kids at future risk for a heart attack, or even a stroke, when they grow up. The chances of this happening increase when kids develop heart disease risk factors such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, or high blood pressure.
"The fastest growing age group for diabetes is children aged 13-18," says Harvey Hahn, MD, cardiologist with Kettering Health Network Heart & Vascular. "It's important for parents to instill healthy habits early in their children with a foundation of healthy diet and exercise. Make sure half your plate is fruits and veggies and plant-based whole foods rather than processed or junk foods. Additionally, kids need to physically play. Play and exercise should be prioritized over screen time."
Kids who are six years and older need 60 minutes of daily activity. Make being active a family activity. Go on walks or bike rides; play sports together; or engage in games together. Additionally, it's important to make sure your children are getting regular check-ups. Along with assessing overall health, a doctor can check a child's weight, blood pressure, and cholesterol.
Early screenings are even more important for women
While many people are aware of the risk of heart disease in men, they often don't realize that heart disease poses just as big of a threat to women. In fact, heart disease is the most common cause of death in both women and men in the United States.
One of the ways we can all help change this statistic is to become more educated on the value of heart screenings. Often, women are unaware that heart screenings play a vital role in their heart disease prevention. Women tend to have different, more subtle signs of heart disease than men. This means that, if a woman is forgoing heart screenings, her heart disease often won't be detected until later stages, when it's much harder to treat.
But I have a primary care provider—am I still at risk?
Most women have a relationship with their primary care provider or OB-GYN that allows them to ask questions about their ongoing health and lifestyle. But if a woman shows no early warning signs of heart disease, heart screenings are not a routine part of these primary care exams.
"With the heart screenings Kettering Health Network offers, we can provide earlier detection for women who are not having symptoms," says Barb Emrick, MS, PHCNS-BC, CCP, manager of the Center for Heart and Vascular Health at Kettering Health Network. "We make testing available and accessible for people who want to be proactive about their cardiovascular risk."
How do I know my risk level?
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, almost half of all Americans have at least one of three key risk factors for heart disease:
- High blood pressure
- High cholesterol
- Smoking
If you have any of these risk factors, talk to your health care provider about which heart screenings may be most appropriate. Some additional risk factors include:
- Diabetes
- Family history of heart disease
- Eating a diet high in processed foods
- Eating a high-sodium diet
- Physical inactivity
- A history of high blood pressure while pregnant
- Certain autoimmune diseases, like rheumatoid arthritis or lupus
Never ignore discomfort
"The symptoms of heart disease in women tend to be atypical. A woman might experience a dull pain, shortness of breath, or unusual fatigue. Because symptoms are often less noticeable in women, many women don't report to the emergency room right away," says Barb.
But delay in treatment leads to worse outcomes. "Women should never ignore any kind of discomfort from the waist up," says Barb. "And by providing accessible, routine heart screenings, we can provide early intervention."
Learn more about heart health for the whole family at Kettering Health Network's signature heart month event, A to Zumba, on February 12, 5:30-8 p.m. at Kettering Recreation Complex. Register today at ketteringhealth.org/atozumba

Personal Thoughts: Truthwitch by Susan Dennard was one of my favorite books of 2015 (I was lucky enough to read it early thanks to sprinting to the Tor booth on the first day of BEA) so obviously, I was feeling super hyped about reading Windwitch which is the second book in the Witchlands series. It was one of my most anticipated releases for 2017 (I feel like I might say this a lot but I swear it's true! I just get really excited about new books, OKAY) and I love the autumnal cover and the prospect of getting Prince Merik's perspective. The stars seemed to be aligned until I started reading and everything I loved about Truthwitch was just… missing. Talk about a major disappointment. I'm still interested in finding out where the story is going so I will most definitely be picking up Bloodwitch but this was just not the second installment I was looking for.
Plot Summary: The events in Windwitch are a continuation of the story we got in Truthwitch. I'll be totally honest, it's really difficult to come up with a coherent plot summary for this book because the story completely changed from the first book. We've got Prince Merik who is on a crusade against his sister Princess Vivia. He's determined to prove that she has bad intentions and he's traveling around under a false identity as everyone believes he died when his ship exploded. Then we've got Safi, traveling around with Empress Vaness after also surviving a shipwreck. Lastly, we've got Iseult and Aeduan (the Threadwitch and the Bloodwitch) on a mission to find Safi but getting into antics of their own.
Critique: Where to start? As an overall critique, I have to say that Windwitch was missing just about everything that I loved about Truthwitch. One of the reasons I was so drawn to the series and why I became so invested to begin with is because of the friendship between Safi and Iseult. In Truthwitch, we get to see all of these amazing best friend moments between two powerful ladies and then they're separated for the entirety of book two. Next, the story is completely sidelined in Windwitch. There was so much set up for this epic tale in Truthwitch and not a single story line was continued or explored enough in book two. This is my main issue. Book two, it really felt like Book one, take two. There was so much groundwork laid in Truthwitch that I was expecting a lot more action this time around. While it wasn't completely unenjoyable to learn about these new situations, the pacing was much slower than in it's predecessor and I found myself getting bored. There are also A LOT of narratives to follow. Windwitch increases to five separate POVs so if there was a particular story line you aren't as interested in, it feels like it takes forever to get back to the one where your heart is (cough *Iseult and Aeduan* cough). There were some important strides made during the course of the story and there was a ton of character growth with the exception of Safi. I also really wish the relationship between Threadbrothers and Threadsisters would've been explored further but I'm expecting that'll be coming in future installments. So overall, I liked Windwitch (despite all of the complaining I just did), but I just was expecting so much more out of it. There's now a TON of buildup between books one and two and I'm just hoping the payoff in the final two books will live up to my expectations.
Do I Recommend?: If you enjoyed Truthwitch as much I did, I would definitely recommend continuing on with the series but I would warn you that the entire feel of the story changes and to not go into it with high expectations. Hopefully this will have been a necessary addition to what will be an epic fantasy story.

What Your Skin Reveals About Your Health
Take a second and look at your skin from head to toe. What do you see? Many people observe wrinkles, acne, eczema, uneven rough skin or rosacea. Although these are all conditions we wish to live without, they're also gentle whispers of the body telling us there's an imbalance going on inside that needs to be addressed, so they shouldn't be ignored.
Achieve Natural Beauty
Achieving beauty is about enhancing your features, a process that can be done with chemicals and makeup or one that can be done naturally. The natural approach may take a little bit more dedication and maybe more time, but it pays off in spades, in the long term, through healthier skin, more vibrant hair, and through a general aura of well-being. Here are ten tips for achieving natural beauty.
Practice Daily to Be More Beautiful
Appearance is one of those things that really matter to all women. We can spend hours trying different things that may help us look more beautiful and attractive. Nowadays some of beautifying practices are quite expensive and they are not available for everyone. However, there are lots of simple and affordable ways that we can use daily in order to have a fantastic look. But first of all, every woman should clearly realize what beauty is. Our inner world is the main thing that makes us beautiful. If you are a happy and peaceful person who lives in harmony with the environment, everybody will see those positive emotions and feelings on your face. You can spend huge sums of money on various cosmetics and other things, but if you are always sad and discontent you will never look beautiful. It is necessary to remember that your beauty and health come from inside. Though, your shiny hair, clear skin and your physical health are also very important. Try to add the following things to your daily routine and you will understand that being healthy and beautiful is very easy.

Networker Notes
Whenever someone introduces me as a 'networker', my brain has a funny habit of hearing a slightly different phrase.
"You must meet Oli, he's a prat"
On the other hand, if I'm introduced as being well connected, I treat this as rather a compliment. Which begs the question, why on earth would someone who intensely dislikes the word 'networker', blog under the name of Daily Networker? And to this, reader, I have no smart answer, other than the idea that maybe, just maybe, such a reputation would be likely, over time, to attract interesting opportunities. And if this happens, the least that I can do is to share them with you…
For web companies in London who are looking for office space, be sure to check out the guys at Huddle. If you're in the charity or social enterprise space, then Daily Networker (there I go again) favourite Henry Warren at Rafi.ki has a couple of desks available too.
Well, the rumour turned out to be true and so I spent an incredibly enjoyable brunch on Saturday with Bruno Giussani, director of TED Global (thanks to the connecting brilliance of Polar Ben Saunders). Bruno brought exciting news of TED's next visit to the UK, so if you'd like a tip-off on the dates, then please do let me know. Speaking of great events, have a little look at Picnic, happening this September in Amsterdam. It looks great, doesn't it? Unsurprisingly (when you meet him), Bruno is on the advisory board of Picnic too.
I can't talk about great events without saluting the eternal dynamo and social philanthropist that is Steve Moore for the quite exceptional execution of the Channel 4 sponsored 2Gether08. Documented by many over blogs, videos and Twitter, the main site (under the talented eye of David Wilcox) captures much of the energy and life which made it a thoroughly enjoyable two days. If 2Gether was a company, I'd want to work there. And that, reader, is praise indeed, even from a Networker.

My new area of work is "Army of Two: 40th Day". I am collaborating with PainFTW to better understand the mechanics of this game. First impression is that they borrowed a lot from "Gears of War". However one unique aspect is the ability to make your own custom mask. Above I have three examples of my own design.
I love SpaceForRent as it exemplifies the entrepreneur side of the game. They are in it for the money and one must look at all the ways one can to make money. I had some problem posting my original design without the knives on the side so I added them as a test but wound up liking them as they seemed appropriate within a world of mercenaries.
My next favorite mask is one I call ItalianTableclothWithFlower. It looks like this prior to being applied to the mask. In my opinion it is simplistic but effective in giving one's enemy a sense of about to have a good meal which unknown to them will be their last supper.
Finally we get to AngryFroggy. This is my effort to incorporate several designs to enhance the effect of a large frog mouth about to swallow your soul. The frog is associated with the dragon. I have added lightning bolt eyebrows and flaming hair to increase the sense of terror this mask should create in your gut.
Designing them was a good exercise in getting to know how the mask will deform the mask as it is applied which often requires re-editing after seeing what it actually looks like on the final product. As with any artistic effort one can never know when one is through learning ones craft. However my entrepreneurial nature inclines me to apply this as an ability for hire, sooner rather than later.
Thus I now add to my resume the title "Designer of Masks".

19 Jun 2019 Red Cross Offers Free Swim Lessons and Promotes Water Safety
|by Jill Palmer, Executive Director, Florida Southern Gulf Chapter, American Red Cross
Thanks in part to a recent grant from the Southwest Florida Community Foundation, and in partnership with Lee County Parks and Recreation, the American Red Cross Aquatics Centennial Campaign will again offer free swim lessons to local youth, ages 4 to 11, at the Tice Community Pool this summer.
In Lee County, 32 children have died from drowning in the last 10 years, as reported by the Florida Department of Children and Families. In the United States, drowning is the leading cause of injury death for children between the ages of 1 and 4, and second for children under 14, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. For every child who dies from drowning, another five receive emergency room care for nonfatal submersion injuries.
This is especially tragic because in nearly every case, those deaths could have been prevented. One "layer of protection" against drowning is learning to swim. Research suggests that participation in formal swim lessons can reduce the likelihood of childhood drowning death by 88 percent. But swimming lessons are only the first step. Others include:
· Preventing unsupervised access to water, such as four-sided fencing around home pools and hot tubs, and locks and alarms on doors (including doggie doors) and windows leading to water.
· Providing close and constant supervision to children in or near water.
· Insisting that children, inexperienced swimmers, and all boaters wear U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jackets.
· Always swimming in a lifeguarded area.
The Aquatics Centennial Campaign was launched in 2014 to mark the 100th anniversary of the American Red Cross adding drowning prevention to its mission in 1914. Due largely to these education and outreach efforts, and over the course of the first 33 years, the drowning rate was cut in half – from 10.4 drownings to 5.2 per 100,000 – and millions of Americans were safely enjoying themselves in, on and around water. The work continued through the years, and the national drowning rate declined steadily and has been about 1.13 per 100,000 per year over the last decade.
While great progress has been made, this still translates to approximately 3,700 needless and preventable drowning deaths each year. The Centennial Campaign is putting a renewed effort in helping further drive down the drowning rate, especially in underprivileged communities where the number of drownings is comparatively high.
"The Centennial Campaign has made it possible for children in and around the Tice Community to take swimming lessons and learn water safety who might not have been able to afford the cost for the last several years," said Nancy Apperson, senior supervisor with Lee County Parks and Recreation. "Last summer alone, over 200 lessons were taught along with many adult/parent water safety education classes, and we hope for a great deal more this summer."
To learn more about being safer in and around water and about the Centennial Campaign, visit redcross.org/watersafety.

This summer, Florida Weekly has graciously allowed us, the Southwest Florida Community Foundation, to spotlight the nonprofit organizations funded through the Foundation's 2019 competitive grant cycle. Funds made available for these grants are graciously given by donors through Field of Interest Funds. Many of these donors are deceased and have left instructions to the Foundation on the causes they care about and then rely on the Foundation team to address the communities' greatest needs within the established criteria by the donor. We have asked these grantees to share their stories. We are pleased to partner with these change-makers.
The Southwest Florida Community Foundation, founded in 1976, cultivates regional change for the common good through collective leadership, social innovation and philanthropy to address the evolving community needs in Lee, Collier, Charlotte, Hendry and Glades counties. The Foundation partners with individuals, families and corporations who have created more than 400 philanthropic funds. Thanks to them, the Foundation invested $6.8 million in grants and programs to the community. With assets of more than $126 million, it has provided $78.2 million in grants and scholarships to the communities it serves since inception. The Foundation is the backbone organization for the regional FutureMakers Coalition and Lee County's Sustainability Plan. The Southwest Florida Community Foundation's regional headquarters are now located in the historic ACL Train Depot at Collaboratory in downtown Fort Myers, with a satellite office located in LaBelle (Hendry County). For more information, call 239-274-5900 or visit www.floridacommunity.com.

Are you living alone or with roommates? How much rent can you afford? Once these issues are decided, consider the following methods of finding an apartment.
The safest way to find a good apartment is to move into an apartment or complex where a friend has already lived. This will let you use your friend's experience as a "test drive." Does the landlord make repairs? What do the utilities cost? How is the noise level? Is it a safe neighborhood? Are pets allowed?
Some students use craigslist or the Daily Nebraskan Housing Directory. You can also search the Lincoln Journal Star Classifieds or Forrent.com.
Gather information on the phone before touring the apartment. Have your list of questions ready. How much is the rent? The deposit? How many bedrooms? Laundry? Storage? Off-street parking? Which utilities does the landlord pay? Are pets allowed? What is the term of the lease: One year, 6 months, month-to-month? If the information you obtain on the phone sounds good, set up an appointment to view the apartment.
Before renting an apartment, find out how other renters rate the apartment complex you are considering by going to www.apartmentratings.com. You can find out the percentage of previous tenants who would recommend this apartment complex to a friend. You can also rate the apartment yourself—and the management—and comment on your experience with this landlord.

Review of draft-ietf-bfd-yang-09.txt. * General comments - Having requirements language below the abstract looks like a novel idea, I assume the RFC editor will edit this. Also note that nowadays authors are usually expected to cite RFC 8174 as well with the extended boilerplate text. - Update 2017 to 2018 in copyright statements etc. - References to RFC 7223, RFC 7277, RFC 8022 should be updated to references to the I-Ds replacing them (sitting in the RFC editor queue). This may also involve changes in the YANG model. - State whether the model is NMDA compliant (which it likely should be), see also previous item. - I am not sure why you want to cite I-D.dsdt-nmda-guidelines. Would it not make more sense to cite the NMDA specification? - There are some YANG validation errors that should be addressed (see the link on the datatracker). - References YANG modules must be in the references and there must be citations in the text, hence there is the common phrase "This YANG module imports <bla> [RFCwxyz] and ...." - We generally prefer reference "RFC 6991: Common YANG Data Types" over reference "RFC 6991" since not everybody remembers all the RFC numbers (add the RFC title after the RFC number, separated by a colon). In some places you actually use the syntactic format but you do not use the RFC title. Please make this consistent, following the usual conventions. - I have raised a question on yang-doctors concerning the pattern import ietf-inet-types { prefix "inet"; reference "RFC 6991"; } and whether this should perhaps be import ietf-inet-types { prefix inet; reference "RFC 6991: Common YANG Data Types (at the time of this writing)"; } * Design of the Data Model - Do I always have to use schema mount to use these YANG models? If so, one might consider I-D.ietf-netmod-schema-mount a normative reference. Are you not augmenting the routing model? - I do not understand the explanations how the groupings solve the problem that IGPs are moving targets (they come and go). How do the groupings help the operator to configure BFD parameters for peers they do not know about yet? - How does a client know which choices of the "min-interval", used for both transmit and receive intervals, and "desired-min-tx- interval" and "required-min-rx-interval" are supported by an implementation? - The phrase 'operational model' probably means 'operational state model' and 'operational items' probably means 'operational state data'. - You have summary information and detailed BFD session information. What would an implementation report if say access to some BFD sessions is restricted by access control? Would information about them still leak through the summary information? I assume so that this may be practically the way to do things but perhaps this needs to be mentioned in the security considerations. - In 2.3, you use 'clients of BFD' but I think this is very different from 'BFD clients'. Please clarify the terminology. - s/operational data/operational state data/g - The *-count leafs seem to be gauge32, should yang-types:gauge32 be used? - There are also real counters that should probably use yang-types:counter32 and yang-types:counter64 instead of uint32 and uint64. - Is [I-D.ietf-mpls-base-yang] not a normative reference? See text in 2.11.3. - Is [I-D.ietf-teas-yang-te] not a normative reference? See text in 2.11.4. * IANA BFD YANG Module - Fix the phrase "a collection of YANG data types considered defined by IANA". - Does IANA understand how the typedefs diagnostic and auth-type is to be managed? Does this relate to an existing registry? Or is this establishing a diagnostic registry? Should the last paragraph in more clearly spell out that any changes to the existing registry must lead to an update of the YANG module and that updates to the YANG module are not allowed without an update to the other registries? The current wording "intended to reflect" seems vague. Should the description text for the typedefs make an explicit reference to the IANA registry for these number spaces? * BFD types YANG Module - The statement "This module contains a collection of BFD specific YANG data type definitions" seems wrong since you define way more things that just datatypes. In fact, ietf-bfd-types is kind of a misnomer; perhaps this should be ietf-bfd-common (the -common was used in RFC 8194 but I am biased here). - s/Two interval values or 1 value/Two interval values or one value/ - I think this is unclear (for me): leaf down-count { type uint32; description "Session Down Count."; } Is this a counter counting how many times the BFD session was down? The terse description does not tell. If this is a counter, then make it clear by using yang:counter32: leaf down-count { type yang:counter32; description "The number of times a BFD session transitioned into the down state."; } Please describe clearly what is being counted. Perhaps my interpretation is wrong, then please insert the correct statement. Note that this comment also applies to several of the subsequent definitions. - Clarify counter relationships. Right now, I assume that admin-down-count is included in down-count (but my interpretation may also be wrong). Same for received/send and received/send bad packets. - You have a container session-statistics and a grouping session-statistics and it seems they count very different things, the first seems to have statistics of stuff happening within a session (per session statistics) and the later seems to have statistics across all sessions. This is a bit unfortunate, if you search of session statistics you find stuff that leaves you puzzled. Please avoid this name clash and also make sure the description of the leafs makes it clear whether it is a per session leaf or a leaf for all sessions. - The *count leafs in "session-statistics" (ha) seem to be of type yang:gauge32, i.e., I would write something along these lines: leaf sessions { type yang:gauge32; description "Number of BFD sessions."; } leaf sessions-up { type yang:gauge32; description "Number of BFD sessions that are up."; } [...] * BFD IP multihop YANG Module - This is indented differently. Well the RFC editor will fix I guess. * Examples - I have not validated the examples. I do not know whether the IETF tooling is meanwhile able to do this - likely not. Did the authors confirm that they automatically validate the examples? Well, looking at the namespaces, likely not (the augmentations do not live in the ietf-routing namespace). So these examples need to be validated and fixed. I have used yanglint for this, works better for me than the pyang solutions, but the authors should figure out what works for them. - There are special IP address blocks for examples; the IPv6 address you show seems to belong to APNIC... * Security Considerations - Needs to be updated to the latest boilerplate. - You should discuss security properties of objects, there is more work to do here. * Appendix A - I do not understand what is going on here, I think this needs a bit more explanatory text. Why is the informal description of the two parameters more detailed than the description in the example YANG module? I suggest to have a proper description in the YANG module only. * Appendix B - What is an area-id? The description is not helpful. - list interface [...] description "List of interfaces" is not really useful.
