What is Yo!Teach!
It's a backchannel chat tool that Vance found to replace Today's Meet, which I used to use for passing messages to and from classes and other gatherings. Today's Meet died at some point last year.
I learned about Yo!Teach here

You might be in education if....
You want to slap the next person who says,
"Must be nice to work from 8 to 3 and have your summers free!"
Jer 32:27
Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?
Al Lingren, professor at an evangelical seminary, tells a story about taking his son fishing one day. His son was then in junior high school. It was one of those days when the fish didn't bite, so they had a lot of time to talk.
It seemed like the question came out of left field. Al's son asked, "Dad, what do you think is the hardest thing God ever tried to do?"
Al, was momentarily stumped, and just returned a question: "Well, son, what do YOU think it was?"
His son said, "Dad, you're a preacher. You should know the hardest thing God ever tried to do. When I was studying science in school, I thought it was maybe creating the universe. Then, we were talking in Sunday School about the resurrection, and I thought maybe that was the hardest thing God ever tried to do. But then I realized that most people don't really know God very well. I think the hardest thing God ever tried to do was get us to understand Who He is, and that He loves us."
No doubt, the hardest thing God ever tried to do was to tell us Who He is, and make us understand that He loves us.
But NOTHING is "too hard" for God!
He came in the Person of Jesus Christ.
He revealed somewhat of His omniscience when He stumped the scholars in the temple.
He revealed somewhat of His omnipotence when He healed lepers, the blind and the lame, and raised people from death.
And He revealed His love for us when He died on the cross at Calvary for our sins.
Praise God! NOTHING is "too hard" for Him!
Love ya,

Las Vegas-based MGM Resorts International has entered a sports gaming sponsorship agreement with the NBA, potentially setting a standard for cooperation between sports leagues and casino operators.
The move makes the NBA the first professional sports league to have official ties with a legal sports betting house. Meanwhile, sports leagues have been demanding casino operators pay them a fee to allow betting on their games. Casino operators have balked at the idea.
The partnership will allow MGM Resorts to use official NBA and WNBA data and branding on a non-exclusive basis across the resort operator's land-based and digital sports betting offerings in the United States. Continue Reading, by Todd Prince
The Toronto Raptors roster is nearly complete as the much-anticipated 2018-19 season approaches.
The team has a deep pool of potential starters and an even deeper bench rotation in place, centred around newcomer Kawhi Leonard and the near-complete cast of characters returning from last season's 59-win roster.
The team traded centre Jakob Poeltl as part of the Leonard-DeMar DeRozan deal, and earlier this summer chose not to re-sign free agent centre Lucas Nogueira.
Regardless of whether or not first-year head coach Nick Nurse plans to utilize Serge Ibaka at centre or not, those departures leave a minor void at the centre position, one that team president Masai Ujiri and his front office are looking to fill via free agency, where they have up to $5.3 million available via the mid-level exception.

Charles Barkley believes Kevin Durant is at heart a good person. That aspect of Durant's personality explains why it comes off as inauthentic when the Golden State Warriors tries to come off as a tough guy, as Barkley sees it. Continue Reading, by Jason Rowan
This is a GOAT resume: Six championship rings, six MVPs, 15-time All-NBA, two-time Finals MVP, 19 All-Star appearances, 11-time All-Defensive team including twice leading the league in blocked shots. Oh, and he also scored more points than any player in the league's history, much of it with one of the most iconic shots the game has ever seen.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar too often gets left out of the "Greatest of All Time" talk. He HAS to be included.
Abdul-Jabbar also had a reasonable, logical take on something too many people get irrational about — the GOAT conversation. From a fascinating, must-read interview with Marc Spears of The Undefeated (that touches on race and politics and more): Continue Reading, by Kurt Helin
LeBron James does not shy away from social issues, and knows his status and reach give him some power. He has used that to call President Donald Trump a "bum" before.
Doing rounds of media following his non-profit foundation partnering with the Akron School District to open a new school aimed at helping the most at-risk youth in his hometown, the topic of Trump came up again (on CNN with Don Lemon). Once again, LeBron did not hold back. Continue Reading, by Kurt Helin

What's the secret to playing into your forties?
Clean-living, Guinness and KFC!
Seriously, it's by having so many good youngsters around. I have to keep my standards up to try to set an example to them of how to go about the game. T20 cricket has helped me change my game, especially because I am not a power hitter like some of the other guys these days. That's a real great challenge.
You're nearing 100 centuries in all forms of cricket - and many of those have been big ones. Tell us the secret of turning those hundreds into doubles and triples.
You have to stay in the present. Respect the bowler and play each ball as it comes. It's important to try to do the basics for as long as possible.
What has been the greatest innings you have ever played?
It's hard to say. My international hundreds are special. The 335 I scored to win the County Championship with Sussex for the first time is special too - and the 87 not out to win the Pro40 game against Nottinghamshire in 2008 was up there. We needed 12 an over, there were ten overs remaining and we were eight wickets down - and we won. We needed four off the last ball to win and I managed to hit a six.
Do you keep mementos from games?
I have a few stumps from a few games. I also have a couple of signed shirts, which are nice memories to have.
Your son is playing for Wales Under-11s. Tell us about that.
I love the fact he is playing and I honestly believe he will be better than me as long as he stays away from booze and girls! As long as he stays humble and works hard, he can go places. His legspinners excite me as he idolises Shane Warne.
Are you one of those parents that get too into his games when you are watching?
No, I'm very relaxed. I want him to make mistakes so he learns.
Cricketers have all sorts of strange traits. Are you one of the superstitious ones?
Not at all.
If there was one rule in cricket you would change, what would it be?
In a dead four-day game, both captains should be able to agree to call it off at tea on the last day.
Who's the funniest team-mate you've ever had?
Me, for no other reason other than that I'm hilarious!
Who spends the most time in front of the mirror?
Grant Flower.
You spent a lot of time playing with Andy Flower. Did you always think he'd move into coaching like he has?
Of course. He was destined to move into coaching. He has a very good cricket brain.
We're seeing more and more players go down that route. Do you want to do that yourself?
Yes. I fancy looking at the options of becoming a batting coach first and see where that takes me.
If you had one superpower, what would it be?
To be invisible.
Tell us one thing about you that the average cricket fan wouldn't know.
I have three testicles!
What's your favourite position to bat?
Either at three or four.
Which ground in world cricket has the most hostile crowd?
In India there is just sheer passion everywhere. So it would be either there or at Chelmsford. They always get stuck into me there - and they are not very smart. I'm like a brain surgeon compared to the average fan in Essex!

Generally, restoring your civil rights in Arizona is simple for first time offenders and not impossible for subsequent convictions.
Restoring Civil Rights:
If you're convicted of a felony, you will lose certain civil rights under the Arizona and Federal Constitutions. Some of these important rights include the right to vote, the right to bear arms, and the right to serve on a jury. The good news is that these rights can usually be earned back. In fact, Arizona is is actually quite generous in restoring these important civil rights after a conviction. The speed in which you can restore those rights will depend of the type of offense and how many.
First time offenses:
For first time felony offenders, upon successful completion of probation or discharge from prison, you're civil rights are automatically restored as long as you paid all fines and restitution. 1 However, this does not apply to your right to bear arms. Even for first time offenses, you must apply to restore your gun rights before possessing a firearm. If you don't, you could be charged with a very serious felony offense.
Second time offenses:
If you've been convicted of two or more felonies, then it's up to the court when to restore your civil rights. 2 If you were sentenced to probation on your second offense, a judge may restore your rights upon application only after successful discharge from probation. If you're currently on probation, speak with your probation officer about how to start this process.
But if you were sentenced to prison on your second offense, you can't apply for restoration of your rights until two years after your absolute discharge from prison. Just because you wait two years does not mean the judge will automatically restore this right. You will need to apply to restore your right and provide good reasons why those rights must be restored.
It's time to restore your civil rights:
No matter how long its been or what your record is, you should look into restoring your civil rights. I've had numerous successes and I absolutely love this part of my job. I take great pleasure in helping others get back up after they've been knocked down. I detest the fact that our criminal justice system labels people without regard to who they really are and that those labels cause so much collateral damage to those who need help getting back on their feet. More importantly, your constitutional rights are just as important as everyone else's even if you've made some mistakes. We're all citizens of this great country and we want our voice to be heard. I'll assist you in getting your civil rights back. Removing the scarlet letter of conviction and restoring dignity is important to me. Even if you've tried to restore your civil rights and failed, come and see me. I find that a little elbow grease up front gets the job done right.

A nice example of early American folk pottery. A salt glaze stoneware storage jar with cobalt decoration.
Blue floral or feather motif with blue dashes around the top. The decoration color and form are consistent with pieces made in Pennsylvania or Maryland during the third quarter of the 19th century. What's particularly unusual about this piece is that there is blue script across the bottom. Unfortunately it is largely illegible and what it says is open to some interpretation.
A great looking piece all the way around. A crack 85 percent of the way down the side but not in the bottom. One small chip to rim.The item "Unusual 19th Century American Stoneware Jar" is in sale since Thursday, March 29, 2018.

LOOKOUT MOUNTAIN -- The Covenant men's basketball team returned to the hardwood for the first time in nine days, but the Scots were defeated by visiting North Park 85-73 on Monday afternoon at Barnes Physical Education Center.
Patjo Twagirayezu registered a double-double with 13 points and 10 rebounds, while Connor Sears scored 13 points with five rebounds off the bench. Ben Phelps poured in 11 first half points and ended with 12 on the day.
Covenant (5-4) trailed for much of the contest, but gained a 51-47 lead after an 8-0 scoring run with 11:02 left in the contest. Will Portlock and Daniel Garrett capped the rally with consecutive baskets giving the Scots a four-point margin. North Park eventually regained the lead at 56-55 after a Jordan Robinson three-point play with 8:36 remaining and the Vikings would not trail again.
Robinson had an impressive showing with 23 points and 19 rebounds for North Park (6-3). The Vikings also received a game-high 26 points and five assists from Juwan Henry, while Colin Lake added 15 points. TJ Cobbs also recorded a double-double with 10 points and 10 rebounds.
Covenant shot 41.7 percent (25-of-60) from the field for the game, with a 46.7 percent mark in the second half alone. North Park connected on 43.1 percent (28-of-65) for the game with seven 3-pointers while holding a 47-32 rebounding edge.
North Park got out to a 9-0 lead in the opening half as the Scots tried to shake off the rust from their long layoff for finals week. A Phelps 3-pointer got Covenant going with 14:02 left in the first half. After trailing 15-3 moments later, Covenant chipped away at its deficit to get within 19-17 after a Tankk Pettus layup with 5:55 left. North Park held on to the lead throughout the first half and took a 36-39 lead into the break.
TJ Cox added nine points and five assists for Covenant, while Berto Dryden had seven points and two assists.
Covenant will have another nine-day layoff for Christmas. The Scots are back in action on Wednesday, Dec. 30 at Emory. Tip-off is set for 7 p.m. at the Woodruff PE Center in Atlanta.

Werder Bremen's Ousman Manneh: 'I just can't believe it!'
The first Bundesliga goal is a milestone for any player. It takes hard work to fight through a thicket of other young hopefuls to get to the first team, and even more effort to get sent onto the pitch. The first time a young player's shot beats the opposing keeper, he fulfills a childhood dream. Except for Ousman Manneh, it's much bigger than that.
Manneh has 31 points and an in-game value of 4.1M. Snap him up for your Official Fantasy Bundesliga team now!
Manneh spent the first 17 years of his life in Gambia, a tiny and poor West African nation ruled by a dictator who's been in power since before Manneh was born. A talented footballer, Manneh knew that his troubled home country held no future for him.
Watch: Manneh reacts after scoring his first Bundesliga goal:
Leaving his family behind, he set out for Europe, ending up as an asylum seeker in Germany, where he settled in a home for refugees in Bremen. He played football with Blumenthaler SV, a club in Bremen's local amateur league, but his obvious talent as a goalscorer soon drew attention from much bigger clubs.
SV Werder Bremen won the race to sign Manneh, and after a season with coach Alexander Nouri in the club's youth ranks, both men have moved up to the senior side - with success. In the last four games under Nouri's charge - all four of which Manneh has started - Werder have picked up seven points and Manneh has notched two assists... and now a goal.
bundesliga.com caught up with Manneh after he scored the winner in Werder's latest triumph, a 2-1 victory over Bayer 04 Leverkusen...
bundesliga.com: Congratulations on your first Bundesliga goal. Can you describe how you're feeling at the moment?
Ousman Manneh: First off I have to thank the fans. I'm standing here and I don't even know what's happened. I don't know if I really did score a goal or if that was just a dream. It's an indescribable feeling, especially to score the winner against a team as good as Bayer Leverkusen. I just can't believe it.
bundesliga.com: Tell me a bit about the last few weeks. Your coach, Alexander Nouri has shown a lot of faith in you ever since he took over. He's played you in every game and now you've scored a goal...
Manneh: I'm so surprised at how everything has gone. I really have to thank coach Nouri for believing in me and giving me the opportunity to play on the big stage. And I need to thank the whole club for all the support they've given me too.
Head to our brand new Match Centre for more on SV Werder Bremen's 2-1 win over Bayer 04 Leverkusen.

It's made by passing a solvent through the cannabis, which produces a thick, honey coloured oil that's full of cannabinoids like THC and CBD, along with essential oils, terpenes and other plant compounds. This is then dried and formed into a sheet, which "shatters" like glass when dropped.

If you're a US Airways cardholder, you probably received an email like this one:
Many banks offer cardholders referral bonuses like these, but I think this one is worth calling out because it should be easier than usual to convince friends to sign up for this offer:
- The Barclaycard US Airways card won't be available to new applicants for much longer
- The 50,000 miles that your friend earns from this signup bonus will merge with their AA miles sometime in the 2nd quarter next year
- There is no minimum spend requirement! Use the card to buy one cup of coffee and your good to go!
The downside:
- Some people have only received an offer for 5,000 bonus miles per referral. And…
- Your friends could get a better offer! The alternate offer (found here) will give them a 10,000 mile anniversary bonus. That offer technically requires US Airways elite status, but in practice it seems to work for everyone.
So, the question is… who should get those extra 10,000 miles? Personally, I will continue to refer friends to the better offer, but there could be situations where it makes more sense for a referral:
- If your friend doesn't have US Airways elite status and isn't comfortable using the associated signup link.
- If it makes more sense to pool miles in your account than theirs. For example, if you have elite status with US Airways (or, later, AA), it could make more sense to book awards for them from your account in order to avoid change fees and the like.
- Maybe they just like you and want you to earn more miles
- Or, maybe they're planning to cancel the card well before the anniversary date anyway.

Swaffham Town 1 Mildenhall 1 – New-boy Duarte earns Pedlars a point
PUBLISHED: 06:30 09 December 2015
Eddie Deane
Swaffham produced a much-improved performance which went some way to making up for their midweek disappointment against Kirkley & Pakefield.
The Pedlars were beaten 3-0 by the Royals, but bounced back to provide some cheer in the run-up to Christmas.
The wind was something of a spoiler against Mildenhall, but was of no particular advantage to either side – in the opening few minutes it held the ball up more than the players.
Both sides had few opportunities on goal in the first half, which saw Joe Jackson come close when his shot from just inside the penalty area was saved.
But it was Mildenhall who broke the deadlock with 41 minutes played – Dean Mayes made the initial save but Matthew Green knocked in the rebound at his near post.
The opening minutes of the second half began the same as the first with the wind controlling the ball in the air. Both sides went close, with Mayes called into action to make some terrific saves, including one on the hour mark, low to his right, to deny Mildenhall's centre forward.
Then came the all-important equaliser – Alex Vincent's shot rebounded to the feet of new signing Luis Duarte who opened his account at Shoemakers Lane by despatching his effort high into the roof of the net. With the goal coming after 81 minutes, the momentum was with the Pedlars and they almost took the lead following a corner by Alex Vincent which got tipped away by the keeper.
Man of the match was Swaffham keeper Dean Mayes.
Duarte was delighted with his goal: "It felt very good to open my account with the club. I feel as a team we can finish mid-table or just higher in this league this season and I feel I made the move to Swaffham at the right time in my career as I'm getting much more time on the pitch now than before and the standard of football is very similar to what I have played in the past."
This Saturday the Pedlars have a journey to Felixstowe and Walton – a tough game judging by the home side's recent form.
The Reserves felt the pinch away to Freethorpe, suffering a 5-1 defeat, Alfie Brindle scoring for the Pedlars. This Saturday they entertain Costessey Sports.
The Under-18s had a good win on Thursday, 2-1 at home to Horsford, Ahmed Rhaouti and Matthew Blackford on target for the Pedlars. This Thursday they have a repeat fixture, but away, with the game to be played at Holt. Their final fixture before Christmas is at Fakenham on Monday.
The Veterans game, away against North Walsham Town Old Boys was postponed due to an unfit pitch.

Choice Hotels Jumps on The Direct Booking Bandwagon
Hotel & Resort Patrick Clarke May 10, 2016
Photo courtesy of Thinkstock.
Nearly three months after Choice Hotels International revamped its Choice Privileges loyalty program, the Rockville, Maryland-based company has announced the rollout of a Choice Privileges Members Rate.
The exclusive rate will be available to program members who book their room direct through either ChoiceHotels.com or the company's mobile app.
Set to launch later this summer, the exclusive discount arrives on the heels of several others offered by major hotel chains, including Marriott International, Hilton Worldwide, InterContinental Hotels Group and Hyatt.
"Our Choice Privileges Members Rate will assure guests that they will get the best online price possible when they join Choice Privileges and book direct on ChoiceHotels.com," said Choice Hotels' chief commercial officer Robert McDowell in a statement. "At a time when many consumers search dozens of websites during their travel planning process, Choice Hotels is committed to making it easier to find and book the best price for its hotels."
READ MORE: What Hotel Chains Stand to Lose From Direct-Booking Push
While Choice Hotels' announcement is big news, it hardly comes as a surprise given the recent industry trend of major chains working to lure customers away from OTAs by offering discounted rates to loyalty members who book through a direct channel.
What's more, Choice Hotels CEO Stephen Joyce hinted that the company would be joining the movement on a recent first quarter 2016 earnings conference call, acknowledging that the company is "very much supportive of that movement and will be a major player as part of it."
Although it's clear now that Choice Hotels will be heading in the same direction as many of its competitors, it remains to be seen whether the company will offer its best available rate to travel agents booking on behalf of their clients, as representatives have not yet responded to TravelPulse's request for comment.
Marriott, Hilton and IHG have all expressed a commitment to the agent community and are extending their discounted rates to agents. While Hyatt requires agents to book through its website to secure the discounted rate, it would certainly be surprising if agents were completely shutout of the newly announced Choice Privileges Members Rate.

Not many people will throw a party this month to honor the 90th birthday of the U.S. income tax. Maybe the tax attorneys, accountants and tax-law publishers will want to break out the ice cream and cake, since they are about the only ones who could possibly feel like celebrating the passage of another year for the inscrutable 55,000-page code. While it's true that many Americans will find their overall tax burden less onerous in 2003, filling out the paperwork only gets more burdensome -- if you file Schedule D, for instance, you're looking at 53 lines as opposed to 40 in 2002. Find out what's in store on 2003 taxes in our lead story, read the latest on cash-balance pension controversy and check our Small Business Report, on today's Personal Finance pages.
I'd buy a nice present -- a 90-year-old tax code can always use a new shelter or two -- but I'm not sure whether that would subject me to the gift tax and four-page Form 709, plus 12 pages of instructions. I'll send a card instead.

Income-tax law turns 90, getting more complex with age
Some American centenarians may remember that death and taxes weren't always certain. Ninety years ago this month, President Woodrow Wilson signed into law the federal income tax code. It wasn't the first -- for instance, an income tax was levied to fund the Civil War -- but it was the one that stuck. And ever since, the tax code has gotten more complicated. See full story
From courts to Congress, pension plan stirs conflict
The hubbub over cash-balance pension plans seems to have entangled every branch of government. The U.S. Treasury is set to issue rules governing these hybrids of traditional pensions, but a congressional amendment would prevent those rules being published. Meanwhile, a federal district court ruling calling all such plans illegal is likely to be appealed. See full story
Many small firms prefer tax reform over tax cuts
When President Bush made a campaign swing through Wisconsin last week, small businesses drew special attention in his stump speech. His remarks were well chosen. The fate of the president's reelection increasingly seems tied to the fate of economy, and small businesses will figure strongly in how the nation rebounds in the next year. See Small Business Report
Retirement accounts loose a tax advantage
Please get one thing straight, right from the start: If you have a 401(k) plan, don't abandon it. And if you have a traditional (non-Roth) IRA, don't abandon it, either. See Paul Merriman
JAMA: Hospital injuries cost $9.3 billion a year
Injuries in hospitals put patients at increased risk, and a handful of categories add $9.3 billion a year to U.S. medical costs, a new study says.

New CEO promises details of role in fund scandal
A firm at the center of the mutual-fund trading scandal is trying to put the trouble behind it, the company's new CEO said. With federal and state authorities investigating his company's role in illegal and improper fund trades, Security Trust interim CEO Thomas Plumb said his immediate goal is to get the Phoenix trust bank "out from under the shadow" of the probe launched by New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer. See FundWatch
Investors don't need your uncle on the fund's board
Years ago, when fund manager Ryan Jacob left the Internet Fund to start his own fund, he picked his uncle as one of his "independent directors." Regulators allowed it. I noted at that time that anyone who was invited to the fund manager's bar mitzvah hardly qualified as independent. Now it seems like the fund industry agrees with me. See Chuck Jaffe
Hard-core bears are grumpy as ever
The geezers is my collective name for the investment letters who were around at the time of the last bear market bottom, in 1974. Collectively, their stock market exposure hasn't altered much since I last looked at them on Sept. 4. But the hard-core bears -- I call them the grumps -- are still brutally bearish.

I could not believe when I heard it on the news
That you were locked up for a spliff,
A misdemeanor
Before your mother could bail you
She found you beaten, unblemished and left in a coma.
The message that is been sent by the authorities
Not that I condone breaking the law
However do not be caught smoking or in possession
Of Marijuana
A God made herb
However, you can smoke in the confinements of home a
Which in long term puncture your lungs
Bore holes in your windpipe
Hey, what is up with that?
I heard you died, the so call police justice con forum they
could not tell it straight
Did you die from falling off a bunk bed?
Beaten by inmates or by cops
Which is the story?
However, from what many speculate of who perpetuate
The suspects considered seems hazy
I personally do not pick sides
I am for justice does not matter whom it serves as long it is
served honestly.
However, one wonders why this kid was locked up
For a misdemeanor
Denied bail
Found dead
Claimed to be without scratches
Is it psychologically or professionally done?
Was it arranged now blamed by the mute and deranged?
I blame the system
I blame us
We never stood up when our rights were violated
We stood by and became voiceless
We allowed it to reach thus far
We cry has if it was sudden
As if we did not know this day was coming
We forget things so easily
Nine-day wonder
Politicians jumping on this to score extra votes
Who sees the illusions?
Locked in manipulation
While many so call justice groups are missing in action
This is beyond murder, brutality and spliff
It is a bunch of things fused with aggression
A reflection of us as a society and people
Therefore, the temperature rises
I feel the tension and I know
It is coming
This is the spark for a revolution.

Excerpt from the book "Imperfect Paths"
Check out our Submissions Page for future Anthology Publishing opportunities now:
Foreword . . .
How many people can say they have not walked on rough terrain to get to where they are today? Most of us have been bruised and beaten to find out who we really are within; to find joy in this life we have been given. We are flawed beings with imperfect paths, and those turbulent journeys can either make us or break us.
It is easy to blame our past wrongs, the people who have tarnished our trust, and the bad bets the world throws at us. But we still hold the power to make a choice to become better than the humans who hurt us; to be the voice of change by learning from the experiences which have attempted to break us. Along the many roads traveled, the decisions we make will determine who we are to become.
Take a moment to walk in another's shoes. The poets here have opened their Pandora's Box, not to release the personal demons that taunt or once to keep them confined, but to share how to sever the weights one is shackled to.

What does Raksha Bandhan mean?
The Hindi word Raksha means to protect, care, or safeguard; for example to protect the country, parents, family, relationships etc. The word Bandhan means bonding, binding or commitment; for example, bonding with parents, friends, siblings, children etc.
Raksha Bandhan is a sacred relationship between a brother and a sister. Some regard Raksha Bandhan as for a brother to uphold a protective commitment, promising duty or responsibility towards their respective sister/s. Raksha Bandhan, Rakhi is regarded as one of the purest and powerful bonds.
What is Rakhi?
In a sense, Rakhi and Raksha Bandhan mean the same, and these words are used interchangeably. Raksha Bandhan is often abbreviated as Rakhi. For example, in a sentence, a person may say:"I am looking forward to meeting my sister on Rakhi" or "I am looking forward to meeting my sister on Raksha Bandhan".

It is not necessary for any brother-sister to have a blood relation to bond in the sacred relationship. Raksha Bandhan, Rakhi is like a promise between two persons for the commitment of protection.

Lambton Square
Lambton Square Mall, on Wellington's Lambton Quay have been undergoing a major redevelopment including a stunning eatery, and the resulting construction and rejuvenation have prompted a fresh new brand to match.
The mall clientele are predominantly professionals who work downtown, and their taste is both modern and at a high level of expectation. Our inspiration for the new logo and branding stemmed from seeing the plans of the glass eatery facade for the first time. The transparency and scale of the floor to ceiling glass, with its constantly changing light plays led us to develop a logo reminiscent of this layering and light. The layered shape was balanced by a strong font, which has been carried through to various other applications.
Demografik have designed various signage applications throughout the mall, including scores of construction hoardings for both wayfinding, and showcasing upcoming store openings. Promotional advertising campaigns have been developed since, across a wide range of mediums.

Used for centuries in Europe and Japan, microcurrent therapy promotes healing in injured muscle and tissue.
Microcurrent therapy is a simple, noninvasive technique used to minimize the effects of aging on the skin by naturally helping tone, firm, and contour skin. It provides immediate results, leaving the patient looking younger and more refreshed. It's designed to mimic the natural currents of the body and is a painless yet effective procedure.
Microcurrent therapy works by triggering adenosine triphosphate production(ATP) at a cellular level to enhance the production of natural collagen and elastin, which re-engages lax facial muscles and provides circulatory benefits. The treatment sends soft waves through the skin and tissues down to the facial muscles. These waves then motivate the body to start producing ATP, which helps repair and rebuild skin, and over time restores the firmness and elasticity of your skin.
Additionally, ATP has been associated with energizing the facial muscles directly attached to the skin. As a result of this connection, your energized facial muscles provide structure, helping lift the face and creating a toned, refreshed, and improved appearance.
Microcurrent therapy has been proven to reduce wrinkles and improve the tone and shape of the face. As a noninvasive procedure, many clients seek out microcurrent therapy to avoid more intensive surgeries or treatments. For more information about microcurrent therapy, feel free to visit our office or call to schedule a consultation. Let us help you determine if this anti-aging, muscle stimulation therapy is the right method to help rejuvenate your appearance.

Fourteen-year-old Mouse (Jahi Di'Allo Winston) desperately wants to join the Midnight Clique, an infamous group of Baltimore dirt-bike riders who rule the summertime streets. His older brother, Stro, was their top rider before his tragic death—a loss that consumes Mouse as much as his passion for bikes. Mouse's mom (Teyonah Parris) and his police mentor, Detective Rivers (William Catlett), work overtime to help the charismatic teen reach his full potential, but when the Midnight Clique's leader, Blax (Meek Mill), takes the boy under his wing, the lure of revving his own dirt bike skids Mouse toward a road way past the straight and narrow.

Soto directs an astonishingly talented cast to create a narrative bursting with pitch-perfect performances and intoxicating emotion.

The New Year often comes with the desire to make your life better and achieve some goals you may have put on hold for a long time. But that's the easy part. Maintaining your New Year's resolutions can be a daunting task, especially if you are on the road. You have to lay the groundwork to ensure that you remain committed, even as you move from assignment to assignment. Here are suggestions for keeping common resolutions while away from home:
Getting adequate sleep can be difficult, especially when you are traveling. Make sleep a priority. Sleep affects many different areas of your health. It is recommended that adults get 7 to 8 hours of sleep a day. That's the time it takes to reach the REM cycle of sleep, where your body enters into the state of repair and your mind into deep relaxation. Thus you are able to release stress both physically and mentally.
Don't allow stress to eat at you. Take a few minutes to empty your mind and relax. Fortunately, meditation can be practiced anywhere. All you need is a few minutes of daily mindfulness practice to reduce the risk of pain and chronic disease due to stress. So take a break of 10 minutes from your busy schedule and practice mindfulness.
Due to your busy schedule, you may end up not drinking enough water. You should be drinking half of your weight in ounces of water a day. Failing to drink adequate water will cause your body to store water. This can cause unwanted weight gain. As you drink more water, your body will flush out toxins and stay hydrated.
Processed foods should be avoided if your New Year's resolution is to maintain a healthy lifestyle. They are full of empty calories and leave you feeling hungry, thus increasing your likelihood of overeating.
Keep snacks on hand that are both energizing and make you feel fuller for longer. The best snacks are those that combine natural sugars and protein. Examples include fruits, nuts, vegetables, and Greek yogurt. Not only do they keep your blood sugar stable, but they also energize you for longer.
When you are traveling and maintaining a busy work schedule, you must make deliberate efforts to stay active. Apart from increasing your muscle mass, you will be able to maintain high energy levels. Choose options that are fun and exciting. Explore your new city by walking, meet new people by taking an exercise class, go dancing, try indoor rock climbing, or go hiking. Be creative and have an adventure!
Traveling from city to city need not be just about work. Wherever you go in the United States, you should be able to find new things to do. Learning a new hobby can help relieve the monotony of your workday.
Depending on where you are headed to next, you may be able to learn new activities such as scuba diving, surfing, rock climbing, or skydiving. If you like reading, visit the nearest library and immerse yourself in knowledge. With a positive attitude and a willingness to try new things, you may find yourself going an entirely new direction in 2019.
As you can see, traveling is no excuse for putting your goals for 2019 on hold. By taking small steps, you can achieve everything you set out to.

ispend all day working on pics...over lapping color boxes to create a nice looking page in my book...I go back later to add a new story before that page and its all messed up...the one colored box is pushed ahead to the next page...etc etc. id love to be able to just lock a story and illustration so it will not budge unless unlocked
It shouldn't normally mess things up but I've found in the past that one of the bast ways to keep individual pages locked is to use page breaks at the end of each page rather than just letting the document sort itself out. That way if you insert a new page before an existing one, the following page will still remain intact.
As well as this, if you put your images and text into text boxes then you need to set up 'anchor points' for them - this will lock them in place - if you click the help button in your version of Word and search for 'anchor points' it will guide you through the particular version you have.

Much like a wedding dress, choosing a first date outfit is very important but also super stressful.
Not only does it reflect who you are (or at least who you want to appear to be) but it's one of the first things your date will notice, and therefore judge you on, which is why shopping for a first date outfit is actually kinda the worst.
Should you wear a dress? If so, how short should it be? How much cleavage should you reveal? Are your heels too high? Would it be cooler to wear flats?
You see? Finding a first date ensemble flat out sucks. Read on for the 17 reasons why shopping for a first date outfit is an awful experience:
Sometimes the mall can be so overwhelming that you don't know where to start.
But you have to shop, because let's face it: You have nothing to wear at home.
First world problems.
So you begin with your head held high as the sales associate quietly judges everything you pick out.
Frustration doesn't really set in until you start looking for things in your size.
You need this to be perfect, yet all that's left is XXS and XXL.
Only to realize in the change room that the style just doesn't fit you.
Sometimes you have to make tough decisions, but your self-doubt gets in the way.
So you turn to your friends for advice, but they don't always give you the reaction you were looking for.
So you end up feeling like this.
When all you really want is to feel like this.
There's a reason why you won't get anything custom-fitted either.
So, you end up going to a bunch of stores, frantically trying on everything.
Then, panic sets in.
So you pick an outfit you think looks kinda decent.
Will your date approve?
Or will they hate it?
In the end, you realize the most important thing is that you feel good.
Even when you end up drinking a lot to calm your nerves.

In 2016, the global weight loss supplement market was at almost $5bn and growing
DuPont has launched HOWARU Shape, a probiotic formula clinically proven to reduce waist circumference in overweight adults.
In a clinical study, HOWARU Shape, which contains 10 billion CFU Bifidobacterium lactis B420, reduced waist circumference by up to one inch.
When taken in combination with 12g Litesse Ultra prebiotic fiber, HOWARU Shape also was shown to reduce body fat mass and trunk fat.
The study was conducted with 225 healthy volunteers (healthy, BMI 28–34.9) who were randomised into four groups, using a computer-generated sequence, for six months of double-blind, parallel treatment.
Probiotic strain B420 has been demonstrated in-vitro to increase epithelial integrity, a key function of the digestive tract.
Litesse Ultra prebiotic fiber has been shown in clinical studies to reduce energy intake, increase satiety and decrease after-meal feelings of hunger.
Separately, and in combination, the probiotic strain B420 and Litesse Ultra demonstrate health benefits.
Clinically demonstrated benefits of HOWARU Shape in combination with Litesse Ultra versus placebo:
Anders Gron Norager, director, Global Probiotics at DuPont said:
"In 2016, the global weight loss supplement market was an almost $5bn category and growing. We know these consumers are not just interested in dieting, they want overall health and wellness, which includes looking good."
"HOWARU Shape is geared toward those who want to lose weight but need help. We're proud to offer these customers a proven way to manage their body shape naturally."

Vitamin D deficiency caused by their intensive indoor training regime is putting elite ballet dancers at increased risk of injury, a study has found.
Researchers at the Royal National Orthopaedic hospital (RNOH), University of Wolverhampton and the Jerwood Centre at Birmingham Royal Ballet have urged trainers and medical professionals to consider providing dancers with vitamin D supplements during the winter after results showed it had a significant influence on improving muscle function and reducing injury occurrence.
Dr Roger Wolman, consultant in rheumatology and sport and exercise medicine at the RNOH, said: "We know vitamin D [deficiency] can affect the bones. What's become clear … is vitamin D is also important for muscles.
"It might not have an intense effect on your average office worker but on someone doing very intensive training, putting a lot of stress on their bones and muscles, it can be significant."
Treatment of professional dancers of all kinds costs on average £900,000 a year and £1m in lost time, making it a significant issue for the subsidised dance sector.
The research, published on Friday in the Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport, involved 24 dancers at the Birmingham Royal Ballet who dance between six and eight hours a day and a total of 38 hours a week, meaning they get little exposure to sunlight, the main natural source of vitamin D.
Before any were given supplements, all were found to be vitamin D deficient or insufficient (not as severe but still low) during winter and only 15% achieved normal levels during the summer. Subsequently, 17 of the dancers were given oral vitamin D3 and seven were not. Significant increases in muscle strength and vertical jump performance were found among the group taking vitamin D. They also suffered fewer injuries, with 12 reporting no injuries and five a single injury, compared to those not given the supplements, only one of whom suffered no injuries with five reporting one injury and one dancer reporting two.
Although the group assessed was relatively small, Wolman said the results were "still convincing. With years of experience of working with dancers in England, we do see a high number of them come to the clinic with low vitamin D levels". He said the findings could be extrapolated to cover other sports that take place indoors, although many involve at least some outdoor training.
The three institutions involved in the study were among the founding partners of the National Institute of Dance Medicine and Science (NIDMS), which last year established the first specialist dance clinic within the NHS at the RNOH. It was prompted by concerns that dancers, most of whom are low-paid and cannot afford private insurance, were not getting the specialist support they needed.
Helen Laws, NIDMS manager at Dance UK, said dancers "need to be able to execute highly technical movements during high-intensity periods of training and when performing. This study provides important advice on performance enhancement as well as offering vital insights into the overall health and wellbeing of dancers."
A second specialist dance clinic opens on Friday, based at the Queen Elizabeth hospital, Birmingham.

Transit Buses Recalled by Gillig Due to Brake Hose Fraying, Leaking
the rear brake hose can rub on the chassis and fray
September 26, 2016
Gillig LLC is recalling 34 model year 2014-2016 Gillig 29-foot Low Floor transit buses. These buses, equipped with disc brakes, have rear brake hoses that can rub chassis components and fray.
A frayed hose may leak air, causing the rear brake(s) to lock up unexpectedly, or fail to operate when the brakes are applied. Either scenario increases the risk of a crash.
The recall is expected to begin September 30, 2016.
Gillig will provide fleets new rear brake hoses, fittings, clamps, and hardware along with instructions on how to reorient the hoses using the new fittings, and reimburse them for their labor, free of charge.
For further information regarding this recall, consumers may contact Gillig customer service at (800) 735-1500.

As most may recall, man buns were usually reserved for rock gods. Fast forwarding to today this "bad boy" stereotyped trend seems to be making a huge impact on the red carpet as we see more and more male celebutantes growing out there luscious locks and tying it into a bun. From little man buns to messy man buns this trend seems to have a sex appeal that many ladies approve.

Author: Leigh Dayton
Using yeast, stem cells and his impressive brain power, clinician and neuroscientist Vikram Khurana is tracking down the causes of – and treatments for - debilitating brain disorders like Alzheimer's disease. It's all happening at the biotech start-up he co-founded in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
« prev | next »
« prev | next »
"I don't like doing things by half" says Khurana, a charmingly gregarious 40-year-old neurologist and neurobiologist. And that includes his professional goal - not just seeing people with devastating neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in the clinic, but developing new therapies for them.
These are important objectives. An estimated 55 million people worldwide suffer from neurodegenerative diseases, according to Alzheimer's Disease International's World Alzheimer Report 2015 and the Parkinson's Disease Foundation1. There is not a single strategy that successfully prevents, treats or reverses these diseases and they are not going away. Without treatment, their prevalence will double in 20 years and global costs will exceed US$1 trillion.2
In sum, neurodegenerative diseases represent one of the world's largest healthcare challenges. "They have devastating personal and economic consequences for patients, caregivers and society," says Khurana – and he knows firsthand.
"When I was growing up, certain family members were afflicted with neurological diseases," he recalls. "My mother's aunt died horrifically of Lou Gehrig's disease." Also known as ALS or motor neuron disease, it's a neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord.
Khurana's family is studded with medicos. Both his parents are doctors, as was his grandfather. His brother Vini, five years older than Khurana, became a cerebro vascular neurosurgeon, galvanised by the early death from stroke of their grandmother and great aunt. "Obviously, our family experiences influenced us", he says.
In turn, Vini influenced young Vikram to attend his alma mater, the University of Sydney. There, as a budding neurologist Khurana recognised that diagnosing disorders like Alzheimer's without having therapies to offer wasn't enough. "I was incredibly frustrated", he says.
Gaining laboratory experience was essential. After medical school in 2001, Khurana moved to the US with a Harvard doctorate and neurology training on his 'to-do-list'. Persistence opened doors. "I'm very grateful for the help and support I've had," says Khurana, citing the Fulbright Commission, the American Australian Association, the Harvard Neurodiscovery Center and his many mentors on both sides of the Pacific as pivotal supporters of his training. And he wants to give back. Since those early days, building a healthy biomedical bridge between the US and Australia has always been on his mind.
Fast forward to 2014 and the launch of Yumanity Therapeutics. This private company develops treatments for illnesses with critical unmet medical needs. Currently, Yumanity focuses on neurodegenerative diseases.
Khurana co-founded Yumanity, along with two other scientists he collaborated with at MIT's Whitehead Institute - Daniel Tardiff and Khurana's wife, Chee Yeun Chung – and their mentor, renowned MIT biologist Susan Lindquist. Biotech industry veterans Tony Coles and Ken Rhodes also joined. "I can't imagine working with a better team", says Khurana.
Under Coles' leadership, cancer biopharmaceutical company Onyx was acquired in 2013 for US$10.5 billion. And Rhodes, formerly Biogen, had a track record of getting neurodrugs through preclinical development and into clinical trials.
Khurana and Chung met at Harvard and married in 2006. "We took a chance and decided to work together," says Khurana. He confesses, "It's not easy" working while raising two daughters, Jaya, 5, and Mira, 20 months. "I think we sustain each other and somehow land on our feet", he says.
Yumanity is growing fast, with twenty employees on the payroll in Cambridge, part of the Boston metropolitan area, and research partnerships with companies around the world including China. Khurana anticipates Yumanity growing by around 20 more employees in the next few months. The firm is already following up many promising leads for new therapies for Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and ALS.
What makes Yumanity's development of treatments surprisingly swift is that it goes to the causative heart of the debilitating disorders - protein misfolding. "Misfolding is an ancient problem and we exploit that fact at Yumanity," says Khurana.
He explains that proteins are molecules packed inside cells. They do key jobs and are required for cell structure, function and regulation. To achieve so many functions, they need to fold precisely into distinct shapes. When folding goes awry, critical functions are lost. Worse, renegade proteins can set off cascades of destruction, causing brain cells to malfunction and die.
Khurana, Chung and Tardiff - showed that these renegade proteins commit crimes in ways that are conserved across a billion years of evolution. They used-cutting edge stem cell techniques to make brain cells 'in a dish' from patients with neurodegenerative disease, and then found that drug screening and genetic wizardry in really simple cells – yeast cells better known for leavening dough and brewing beer – provided clues on ways to find and reverse abnormalities in the brain cells. Their back-to-back papers in the the journal Science 3 caused quite a stir in the scientific community 4 and gave birth to Yumanity.
So why call the company Yumanity? "It's Yeast to Man," replies Khurana. "It was coined by Sue."
Today, Khurana has a string of publications, patents, honours and awards on his completed list. Thanks to an Australian National Health & Medical Research grant, he's also collaborating with University of New South Wales neuroscientist Glenda Halliday – developing stem cell models for a disease related to Parksinson's called Multiple System Atrophy.
Keeping to his 'no half measures' dictum, Khurana is about to take up a professorship at Harvard Medical School and the Ann Romney Center for Neurologic Disease in the Department of Neurology at Brigham and Women's Hospital. "There's a new neuroscience institute being built where I'll be able to see patients and perform research in the same building," he says excitedly.
It's a good thing that Vikram Khurana can get by on little sleep… and support from his life and scientific partner Chee Yeun.
