Our Education Story:
Our education story incorporates both the perspectives of domestic and international students studying in the public post secondary system in British Columbia. Being a student is a rewarding, exploratory and of course an educational experience for all of us but at the same time is accompanied with stress, having to borrow money and maintain finances. Working multiple jobs while volunteering and going to school full time in order to fulfill the expectations of a student and build experience for the future ahead are also typical activities for us. If education were cheaper, or loans easier to forgive – or perhaps even being rewarded more for maintaining a good GPA and creating really interesting work would ease part of our burden in regards to finances and maintaining a healthy schedule. We are privileged to have access to world class education and be able to have a voice to critique it and the post-secondary education system in Canada, we are also asking for the system to be more accessible, more affordable and more considerate of students? needs, health and lifestyles.
Dear Premier,
We would like to ask you what your priorities truly are in terms of post secondary education in BC? Is approving pipelines, pushing to extract LNG and essentially ignoring the raise of tuition and lack of funding for education in BC a beneficial route to take? We would like to say that even though post secondary education is not for everyone, having people educated gives back to society as a system and produces more productive and critical thought within a community. Education allows for people to push ideas passed presumptions, evolve theories and determine new concepts, and to improve environmental rights in order to live in a socially and physically sustainable society. We would like you to take time and reconsider where funding and thought is going in this province and where it can be further invested to achieve the best that this province and country can be.

Sub Pop, which began as a fanzine and evolved into a record label in the late 1980s, is considered the epicenter of the Grunge Movement. At the end of 1989, Seattle's music scene started to explode. Megan Jasper, vice president at Sub Pop, says being in the middle of everything felt absolutely surreal; they didn't have perspective. "We just knew that people had given this thing a name and that it was affecting people's lives in some interesting ways, in some great ways, and in some sad ways."

The Spanish Conquest of Mexico
Interested in culture and history, Jose Juan has done research on those topics that pertain the indigenous people of the American continen
The Spanish Conquest of the Aztec Empire
Transformation of an Entire Civilization
The conquest of Mexico by the Spanish was an event that marked the gradual transformation of an entire civilization in the cultural, social, and religious aspects. Before the Spanish arrived to Mexico, they had already met coastal tribes in the Yucatan Peninsula. This would have allowed them to get an idea of what to encounter inside continental land. Many American civilizations based their unity in the voice of their emperor who was seen as a person, although a person with certain attributes through which they could establish and maintain communication with their deities.
The spreading of disease with which the Aztecs were immune played a key factor in the Aztec conquest. This victory over the Aztecs promoted eventual invasions by Spanish conquistadores throughout the new world, as they were seeking to expand their domains. Aztecs were a complex culture, with a different view of their world and complex religious practices. Even though they believed in a supreme being, they had deities, and objects to which they gave magical powers in critical moments of their existence.
Malintzin and Hernan Cortez
Cortez Meets Malintzin
Cortez's fleet touched American land for the first time at Cozumel in the Yucatan Peninsula, where he heard that other white men were already living in the region. These men turned out to be Geronimo Aguilar and Gonzalo Guerrero, survivors of a Spanish shipwrecked occurred in 1511, which had lived among the Mayas since that event. Geronimo Aguilar was released to join Cortez. Gonzalo Guerrero chose to stay among the Mayans, since he had assimilated the culture and had a Mayan wife and had procreated mestizo children. Aguilar, who had learned the Mayan language, help Cortez communicate with the Mayan culture.
The problems of communication with indigenous people arouse as Cortez expedition continued farther north. Luckily for them, the booty of victory over a Tabascan community at Potonchán included a group of twenty native maidens, one of whom spoke fluent Nahuatl, the language of the Aztecs, and other Mayan languages. Malintzin, as this maiden was named, would serve as a mediator when encountering other indigenous people. She would translate from Nahuatl to Mayan for Aguilar, who then would translate from Mayan to Spanish for Doña Marina, as she was later called. Doña Marina became Cortez 'mistress and eventually bore him a son, who she named Martin, a mix-blood Mexican mestizo.
Aztec Gold
La Villa Rica de la Vera Cruz
Cortez reached the city of Cempoala on June 3, 1519. There, Cortez persuaded the Totonacs to fight against the Aztecs. The Totonac chief agreed in hopes of freeing his tribe from rendering tribute to the Aztec Empire. Exploiting the divisions existent among contributing tribes to the Aztecs and gathering a large army of indigenous natives proved to be an effective tactic for conquering the Aztec Empire. The Totonacas helped Cortez established the settlement of La Villa Rica de la Vera Cruz, presently known as Veracruz, which became the point form where Cortez would attempt to conquer the Aztec Empire.
Moctezuma knew of Cortez' intentions to reach Tenochtitlan. In an attempt to dissuade Cortez from continuing ahead, Moctezuma sent beautifully crafted gold and silver gifts, hoping to placate the Spaniards efforts of advancing or better still, dissuade them to return from where they came. This only aroused in the Spanish the lust for wealth. After sending letters back to Carlos V in Spain and one fifth of the Aztec treasure, and to avoid any threat of desertion or treachery, Cortez ordered that all ships, except one, were burned. This measure would prevent that those still loyal to the governor of Cuba conspire and scape, as well as to insure Cortez's governorship over the Aztec Empire.
Cortez Meets Moctezuma
Massacre of the Cholulans
Scale Model of the City of Tenochtitlan
Sacred City of Cholula
The Tlaxcalans had been in constant quarrel with the Aztecs for over a century. The Aztecs had already conquered most of the territory surrounding Tlaxcala, and eventually they would try to conquer The Tlaxcalans. On September 18, 1519, Cortez arrived in Tlaxcala where he was received cordially by the rulers who already considered the Spanish as their allies against the Aztecs. In Cholula, Cortez found a peaceful sacred city with a small army, since their confidence was placed on their gods. After been warned by Malintzin of a plot to murder the Spaniards, Cortez set the city on fire, and ordered the massacre of the Cholulans. This produced a fearful effect on other communities of the Aztec Empire who submitted themselves to Cortez demands.
On November 8, 1519, Cortez arrived to the city limits of Tenochtitlan. It is believed that Tenochtitlan was one of the largest cities then, with an estimated population of between 60,000-300,000 people, surpassed only by Constantinople in Europe. Cortez entered Tenochtitlan through the southern causeway and was given a cordial welcoming by Moctezuma. After exchanging gifts, the Spaniards were escorted to the ancient palace of Atzayacatl, Moctezuma's father. After a few days from the day in which Cortez entered the city and to insure he had complete control of the city, he took Moctezuma as a prisioner.
The Aztec Empire
Religious Festival Dedicated to Huitzilopochtli
Alvarado Attacks the Aztecs During a Religious Ceremony
Cortez received news that a float under the command of Panfilo de Narvaez had arrived at La Villa Rica de la Vera Cruz with orders from Governor Velasquez to arrest Cortez under the charges of mutiny, and treason. Cortez headed to the coast to meet Narvaez, leaving over a hundred men under Pedro de Alvarado in Tenochtitlan. With a much smaller army, Cortez surprised Narvaez during a night attack at the end of which Narvaez was made a prisoner. While in captivity, Narvaez soldiers were told about Tenochtitlan and all of its richness in gold, the captured men agreed to accompany Cortez to the city of gold in his search for conquest.
When Cortez returned to Tenochtitlan, he found out that Alvarado and his men had attacked and killed many Aztecs during a religious festival dedicated to Huitzilopochtli. Alvarado later told Cortez that they had acted upon the rumors that the Aztecs were planning to attack them once the festival was over. The Aztecs responded to this killing by driving the Spanish back into the palace and placing them under siege, at the same time, they elected Cuitlahuac as their new emperor. Cortez persuaded Moctezuma to calm his people by addressing them from the Atzayacatl's balcony, but the outraged Aztecs responded by throwing stones at Moctezuma who died a few days later.
The Conquest of the City of Tenochtitlan
Fall of Tenochtitlan
The Spanish and their allies, knowing that the people of Tenochtitlan had risen against them, prepared to leave the city, some of them carrying much of the wealth they have acquired while in Tenochtitlan. On July 1, 1520, the Spanish headed out to the mainland via the causeway of tlacopan; however, they were discovered and the Aztec warriors attacked them harshly on a narrow road flanked by the lake on both sides. Many Spanish soldiers drowned or were killed by the Aztecs. During the retreat, the Spanish lost more than 600 men, as well as several Tlaxcalan warriors. Upon reaching the mainland at Tlacopan, Cortez wept under an ahuehuete tree in what is historically known as "La noche triste."
The surviving Spanish and their allies retreated back into Tlaxcalan territory however, soon after they had been forced out of Tenochtitlan, a contagious disease known as the smallpox spread across Tenochtitlan, killing thousands, including the emperor, Cuitlahuac. Once recuperated, the joint forces of Cortez and the Tlaxcalans took the majority of cities under Aztec control. At the end only Tenochtitlan and Tlatelolco remained unconquered. Cortez mounted a siege on Tenochtitlan that consisted on blocking the causeways from the mainland, while armed men advanced on brigantines built by the Spanish.
The attack over Tenochtitlan continued for eight months during which the supply of food was cut off and the aqueduct carrying water into the city was destroyed. Finally, on August 13, 1521 the last emperor, Cuauhtémoc surrendered to Cortez.
In 1532, Francisco Pizarro conquered the Inca Empire with an army of around two hundred men, following a similar pattern used by Cortez in the conquest of Tenochtitlan.
It is estimated that approximately 90% of the indigenous population perished from diseases brought from Europe.

Allen: Differing court decisions raise questions for future of Obamacare
In dueling federal appeals court decisions recently, judges issued contradictory rulings about the plain language of the Affordable Care Act. The split likely means the controversial law's fate will be left to the U.S. Supreme Court, yet again.
At issue in the latest legal challenges are the premium subsidies provided through insurance exchanges, where most people who don't get health coverage through their employer can purchase health care plans. According to the law, those subsidies are made available through an exchange set up by a state, but the states were not required to set up an exchange. Thirty-six states, including Georgia, elected not to set up exchanges, instead leaving it to the federal government to establish and operate insurance marketplaces, as it is entitled to do.
But what the federal government is not entitled to do under the plain text of the law - confirmed by the D.C. circuit appeals court - is to provide subsidies that make it possible for millions of Americans to purchase otherwise unaffordable health care coverage through the federal exchange. For people purchasing coverage through the federal exchange, that means that the ACA doesn't seem to offer a mechanism through which you can receive any subsidies. So, if you like your subsidies, you may not be able to keep them.
It stands to reason that when members of Congress wrote the law, they appreciated how the premium subsidies would be a necessary, and not an optional, component of its success. Defending the government in a brief to the D.C. circuit, a group of economic scholars argued as much: "The ability to offer subsidies is not a gratuitous 'carrot' dangled in front of States to lure them to set up their own Exchanges. Rather, subsidies are a crucial component of the ACA legislative scheme."
But if this is how Congress intended for the law to operate, why wasn't it more explicit when writing the ACA? That question is perhaps best answered by MIT economist and ACA architect Jonathan Gruber, who confirmed for an audience in 2012 what many already suspected: The subsidy provisions written in the law were totally intentional and wholly political. In Gruber's own words: "If you're a state and you don't set up an exchange, that means your citizens don't get their tax credits."
Essentially, the law's authors sought to withhold subsidies to states that failed to set up their own exchanges as a means of incentivizing them to cooperate with the federal scheme. There is little doubt that Democrats in Congress, the president, and perhaps Gruber himself, never expected that 36 states would forgo the federal government's offer.
But they should have known, given that the ACA was rammed through Congress, circumventing traditional legislative processes and passed without a single Republican vote, and it remains extremely unpopular even four years after its passage.
Unfortunately, the partisanship that made the ACA possible is also making the law confusing, frustrating, litigious and potentially unworkable.
Under normal circumstances, Congress would amend a contested law to fulfill its original goals without violating the Constitution. But Democrats refuse to reopen the ACA because they know that without majorities in both houses, they could lose it all.
If the Supreme Court takes up the case next year, Democrats in Congress may have no other option than to start over.
And the biggest lesson from the latest court decisions might be the most obvious: Laws forced through Congress without any attempt at bipartisan consensus are not built for long-term success.

It comes in 3 colours, namely, Jet Silver, Porcelain white and Royal Burgundy. Tata motors have launched the comparatively more stylish new Indigo eCS in order to keep up the pace with the growing competition in Indian automotive industry. The company has designed this sedan in a compact size to fit the demands of the Indian market. The sedan has exceptional mileage and performance besides the brand's trust. The vehicle has got a substantial share of the market. OUTER LOOK Reflecting its sibling hatchback, the Indigo eCS is called the world's smallest sedan. However, its big bonnet makes it look like a fully-grown sedan. The new Tata Indigo eCS comes with a number of cosmetic and mechanical upgrades. The sedan features redesigned front look with diamond shaped grille chrome; plus smoked headlamps are mounted in the front end. The rear end has prominent tail lamps and cylindrical reverse lights. The exterior also has body coloured bumpers, hood in chrome, tinted glasses, demister at the rear, chrome garnished rub rails and front & rear fog lamps. In addition, it comes with body coloured turn indicators, wheel caps and adjustable electronic ORVMs (Outer Rear View Mirrors). This model is available in five sparkling colours including sterling gold, starlight blue, Porcelain White, Royal Burgundy and Arctic Silver. INTERIOR & FEATURES The interior is new & refreshing. The eCS is quite cavernous and offers comfortable seating to five passengers when compared to normal sedans. Its majority reflects the Indica from the inside with few exceptions like dual tone beige and coco brown colour interiors and partial or full fabric seats. The dashboard is quite wide and the central console comes in classy wooden finish housing a stereo system and two AC vents. Leather wrapping option for gearshift knob is also provided in top-end variants of the sedan. It also has storage pockets on the front/rear doors, auto drive assist, a front power outlet, adjustable driver seat, vanity mirror on passenger seat and front & rear cabin lights. The top variants of eCS offer front and rear power windows. ENGINE The sedan is available in three engine options including two diesel and one petrol. The 1.4-litre CR4 diesel engine is more frugal than the 1.3-litre quadrajet. A smooth five-speed manual gear transmission is equipped in all the engines. The 1.4-litre CR4 diesel engine produces 69.04 bhp of peak power and a maximum torque of 140 Nm. The 1.3-litre diesel engine offers a maximum power output of 69.04 bhp with a peak torque of 135 Nm. On the other hand, the petrol engine generates 64.11 bhp of highest power and a maximum torque of 100 Nm. MILEAGE The 1396 cc Diesel model gives a fuel economy of 19.6 kmpl. PERFORMANCE AND HANDLING The eCS is known for its exceptional mileage as compared to other cars. The diesel variant reaches 0 to 100 kmph in 18 seconds and the petrol engine reaches 100 kmph mark within 17 seconds. An impressive mileage of 22.0 kmpl in city and 25 kmpl on the highways is delivered by the CRDi engine powered variant. However, TDi BSIII engine variant gives in-city mileage of 13.6 kmpl and on-highways mileage of 18.3 kmpl. The petrol variants deliver a maximum mileage of 18.0 kmpl on highways and an average of 15.0 kmpl in the city. The car also performs well in CNG variants. In comparison, the petrol engine is more frugal that the diesel one as it allows inhibited fuel flow with multi-point fuel injection system. The 'T' shape three-spoke steering is elegant in looks and has comfortable grip. Moreover, the new steering mechanism has made the sedan very comfortable to drive on city roads. RIVALRY The eCS competes with other sedans like Honda Amaze and Maruti Swift Dzire. +Read Further - COLLAPSE CONTENT Pros- Fuel economy of EMAX CNG version, Price, Comfort, Cabin space Cons- Electricals, Ergonomics, Reliability Tata Indigo eCS User Review Write Review View All ReviewsWrite a Review for Tata Indigo eCSPlease be sure to focus your feedback on the car and how it met your expectations.

For a small country with a ton of restaurants, it takes something special to stand out. The three listed below are our favourites in classic Singapore cuisine reinterpreted.
Wild Rocket
It is a mystery as to how lawyer-turned-chef Willin Low and his restaurant Wild Rocket has yet to be awarded a Michelin star. After all, Low pretty much coined the term Mod-Sin, and was one of the first chefs to give local flavours and ingredients a contemporary spin – remember his original laksa pesto pasta? While there's been more of a focus at Po – his trendy, popiah-inspired restaurant at The Warehouse Hotel – it's at Wild Rocket where Low's culinary flair is best experienced. Here, Low channels his love for local hawker cuisine (his Instagram speaks) to a number of signature dishes.
The "Singapore Noodles" is a modern take on hokkien mee, spaghettini with king prawn in a robust prawn stock. Laksa is reimagined as spanner crab handmade ravioli, laksa pesto and served in a aromatic laksa broth, and a hearty beef rendang is made using oxtail and served on a bed of fresh, handmade pappardelle.
To really experience Low's creativity though, opt for the eight-course tasting menu ($120++ to $160++ per person), where ad-hoc dishes like his twist on adobo duck wrapped in a cannelloni and baked with cheese, dusted with truffle and shiitake, get presented at the 12-seater omakase counter. For a full experience, get Low's recommendation on which sake pairs best. He's a certified Advanced Sake Professional.

It's quite a feat to be named the world's first Michelin-star Peranakan restaurant. To hold the star for two years running, the restaurant (and its chef) must be doing something right. And that, Malcolm Lee, is doing. All of Candlenut's rempah (spice paste) is made exactly how any Peranakan grandmother would – from scratch without the use of MSG or preservatives to achieve an authentic, home-style flavour.
Peranakan cuisine is unforgiving of shortcuts, so Lee's dedication to retaining authentic flavours while elevating this homey cuisine to satisfy global palates is exactly what caught the Michelin inspector's attention. While there are plenty at Candlenut to sample, it's the standards that should not be ignored. Freshly-fried kueh pie tee filled with salmon tartare, pickled shallots and laksa leaf pesto, his rich, earthy buah keluak fried rice that's full of wok hei and impossible to replicate. Also, there's a 10-course 'Ah-ma-kase' tasting menu ($88++) that journeys through the nuances of Peranakan cuisine.
Save room for dessert. The buah keluak ice cream with chilli, and chendol made with coconut cream, pandan jelly and gula melaka are must-tries.

Singapore food hasn't always been thought of as a sophisticated cuisine. That is till former banker-turned-chef Han Li Guang set up Labyrinth, presenting one-of-a-kind dishes like Lardo; essentially a glorified chicken rice that takes three days to prepare. The seemingly simple tofu-like square, made of chicken fat and sesame oil and served with soya sauce and ginger, is just one of many deconstructed local creations that won Han a Michelin star in 2017.
Not one to sit back on accolades, Han is known to evolve his signature dishes, his Chilli Crab dish has undergone 14 different versions since it was launched in 2014. One of his latest additions to the menu is a take on local breakfast staple, soft boiled eggs and kaya toast, except presented as a dessert of kaya ice cream with caviar butter toast and a soya sauce curred egg; unmistakably sweet and savoury and in line with Han's preference to toy with all five senses.

|Assistant Director of Athletics (Transportation, Equipment, Fitness Center)
|617.868.9600 x2321
Paul Vasconcelos is in his twelfth year as head coach for the women's soccer team at Lesley University. He is the all-time winningest coach in Lesley soccer history and posts an 185-50-16 overall record (93-2-1 NECC).
Vasconcelos and his staff guided the Lynx to their seventh New England Collegiate Conference title in 2018 and returned to the NCAA Tournament. 2018 also marked the eighth time (2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2018) in Vasconcelos' career that he was voted Conference Coach of the Year by his peers.
Under his direction, Vasconcelos has turned the Lynx into a premier program in the region. He has compiled a .771 winning percentage which puts him in the top 10 winningest-active coaches in NCAA history and appeared in ten straight NECC Championship games.
His teams have also excelled in the classroom as they are annually honored by the United Soccer Coaches with the Team Academic Award, a distinction that recognizes programs that compile a combined grade-point-average of 3.0 or higher.
In his first year on staff, the women's program made a remarkable turnaround, improving to 14-4-1 in the 2007 season and getting into the record books as the NCAA All-Time Most Improved Division III program in the country. As a result, Vasconcelos was selected as the 2007 North Atlantic Conference Coach of the Year.
He has now coached a total of 44 All-Conference players, including five Conference Players of the Year, seven All-New England selections and three Conference Rookies of the Year.
Prior to his time at Lesley, he was the assistant coach at Milton Academy where he stayed on for just one season, before leaving to become the assistant coach at Emerson College. At Emerson he helped lead the Lions to their best record in the programs history in just his first year. He stayed at Emerson for three seasons, leading the Lions to two straight Great Northeast Athletic Conference semifinals matches.
He holds a USSF National B License, KNVB Dutch Advanced License, NSCAA Director of Coaching Diploma and Portuguese Level III. He also coached in the Massachusetts ODP system for over 8 years.
"My staff and I are dedicated to recruiting top flight student-athletes to come in and make an immediate impact to our already successful program," Vasconcelos on his role at Lesley. "We aim to be one of the elite programs for years to come."

"It is always very encouraging to find personalities like Paul Fromm who are entirely oriented towards the music of our century. He devoted his time and his efforts to this cause, with considerable success, and in spite of all the difficulties one generally encounters in this field."
—Pierre Boulez, February 24, 1988
Born in Kitzingen, Germany, in 1906, a fifth-generation member of a family of vintners, Fromm was early an amateur of music. Given piano lessons as a child, he delighted in playing the four-hand repertoire, and transcriptions of the standard repertoire with his brother Herbert, who later pursued a career as a composer. Fromm became aware of contemporary music in the early 1920s when he first heard a performance of Stravinsky's Rite of Spring: "It made a twentieth century man of me." From 1921 to 1926 he attended concerts of contemporary music in Germany's Black Forest at die Donaueschingen Festival, where much of the advanced music of the period could be heard.1
Fromm first hoped to become a patron of music in Germany; he was planning the establishment of a music foundation in his native land when he was forced to flee the Nazi pogroms in 1938. Settling in Chicago, he went into business as a wine importer, co-founding the Geeting and Fromm Corporation in 1939, founding the Great Lakes Wine Company in 1943. In 1944 he became a naturalized citizen of the United States.2
Fromm's background made him a unique patron of contemporary music. As Elliott Carter explained, "Maybe Paul's professional familiarity with the world of wine gave him hope that music, like winemaking, could be transplanted here. For like music, wine has its very elaborate European methods of growing, pruning, pressing, fermenting, aging, and bottling. And like music, its various years, locations, and producers have very different characteristics."3
David Gable described Paul Fromm as a modest and generous patron, and he re-quoted the following statement Fromm made to composer Arthur Berger in 1959:
I can now buy happiness for others. The employer can now serve his employees by giving them spiritual leadership in return for their service. Otherwise we shall succumb in the next twenty-five years to a new lonesomeness, a spiritual bankruptcy. I don't want to be thanked for what I do. Nothing embarrasses me more. The composer is the one who deserves our thanks. I despise the relationship between Santa Claus and deserving child. This is not social work. Ours is not an aid society. I fulfill my obligations to social work by running a therapeutic nursing service for mentally disturbed children.4
Paul Fromm was dearly beloved by composers for his unprecedented support of their work. After Fromm's death on July 4, 1987, a documentary memorial volume of essays by and about Paul Fromm as well as memorial tributes was published by the Harvard Music Department titled A Life for New Music. In the preface to this volume, Christoph Wolff wrote, "'A Life for New Music,'--no other phrase could capture more appropriately and meaningfully the deep enthusiasm, inspiring dedication, vigorous efforts, and generous benefactions that have marked Paul Fromm's lifelong commitment to the cause of contemporary music... We mourned the loss of a close friend--to some of us a personal, to all of us a congenial one."5

champagne raspberry scones
Happy new year, friends.
Nearly two months late, but nothing new there.
We're still only halfway through the first quarter, so it counts, right?
I tried to write a proper introspection recapping 2018, but the truth is that even before January 1st, I was extremely done with the year. 2018 alternated between brilliant and terrible, and by the end, I was exhausted. In a nutshell, to 2018, I say:
thank u, next.
With 2019, enter champagne raspberry scones: a version of these mimosa scones, made with a very cheap bottle of prosecco I found at Trader Joe's right before New Year's Eve and raspberries frozen and saved from warmer days.
The dough: fragrant, but very sticky. Simple to pull together, especially if you freeze and grate your butter. (No pastry blender needed, though it would certainly work here.) Easiest dropped onto the pan by the spoonful, misshapen pieces be damned.
The final product: an almost bready crumb, with a delightfully crisp outer layer from the long baking time. Pierced with small pockets of sweet raspberries, brushed and then drizzled with a strong but not overwhelming champagne glaze. A great side for a morning coffee, or to liven up your weekly team meeting at work.
Until next time, I raise my glass-in-a-scone: here's to you, friends, to 2019, and to whatever comes next.

I'm 30 years old.
I've been married 8.5 years and working professionally (not coincidentally) for about the same time. I've been a member of my church for 8 years. My husband and I are solely responsible for the health and welfare of two small children.
Some days it feels like I will be crushed under the weight of my responsibilities.
I have this image of what it's like. I imagine the world sitting on top of these generational rollers, moving along. Gradually, the world rolls off one generation and on to the next, until for a few moments (years, decades) one generation carries the brunt of the load, with some small portion of the weight being borne by the coming and going generations. After a long lead in, my generation is beginning to feel the full weight of that world which will ride on our shoulders for the next two or three decades.
Our society is set up around the idea that there are "the proper authorities". The first aid flipsheet on my 'fridge says "then call 911" after nearly every entry. We're supposed to talk to our doctors before doing exercise or trying a new diet. We're supposed to talk to our financial advisors before we decide where to invest. We're supposed to report downed wires and suspected child abuse to proper authorities. At work we're supposed to notify our managers if someone is harrassing us. For nearly any difficult, sticky or dangerous task for our entire life we've been told to tell the proper authorities.
We might be forgiven for thinking there is some super race, set apart, of proper authorities. Clearly, this isn't the case. At some point, the buck stops and there isn't anyone up the chain of ability or command to call. Recently, I've come to realize that in some areas, I am the proper authorities. I'm the ones my sons should come to when something is difficult. At work, I may make binding decisions for the company. (Ok, ok so those decisions largely revolve around whether to order the Intense Dark Roast or the French Roast this time, but still….) At church, I sit on the board which truly is "Them" as in "They should do something about the website" or "They need to make sure that all the teachers have background checks" or "They should put in a defibrillator". I would also be the "They" in "They should've known" or "Why didn't they plan for that" or "What were they thinking?"
No one but a nonagenarian would argue that 30 is exceedingly young. President Obama is older than I am still, but the president is no longer of a different, older generation. His girls are only a few years older than my boys. He may have some gray in his hair but frankly? So do I. (THAT is a whole other post!) We cannot argue inexperience, or youth. There isn't some vast group of wise grownups who is checking our work and making sure we don't make mistakes that mess everything up.
There is a story about a boy who lifted a baby ox every day from the day it was born. In this way, he became incredibly strong and could easily still lift the ox when it grew to it's full size. (As the mother of fast-growing children let me opine: HA!) It feels to me today as though my responsibilities have recently undergone a growth spurt and my muscles are slow to strengthen in response.

What To Do In Portland Oregon
What To Do in Portland Oregon
Ever wonder what there is to do if you ever travel to visit Portland Oregon? No need to guess, just check out this short video on what you should be doing when you visit.
Local Custom Saw Maker In The Pacific Northwest
Portland, Oregon– Tom, 45, had actually long dreamed of constructing a log home for his household.
" I attended many seminars on how you can do this with the readily available home kits, but that course was too expensive for us to pay for," claimed Tom.
He determined to get a portable sawmill that would certainly allow them to create their very own lumber and build the residence of their desires. "I believed this was a means for us to conserve a lot of money and still have your home we wanted for our household," claimed Tom.
Blades to Sawmills
Tom operates and owns a full-time Pacific Trail custom saw manufacturing business.
Earlier, Tom possessed an additional portable sawmill that he utilized to make lumber to build a store. It took him and also his better half a year to develop the two-story store, which set you back only $5,000. The building is 30×30 on the very first level as well as 30×70 on the top level. The Lockhart family moved right into the store building in 1994 and also lived in it while Tom dealt with the logistics of developing a log home.
Five years later, Tom started developing their log home, which took six years to complete. They acquired for the electrical work, pipes, as well as masonry to build three rock fire places. The household moved right into the 3,600-square-foot log home in 2005.
When neighbors learned that Tom had a sawmill, individuals began calling him to earn lumber for them, as well. "I thought this was a good possibility to earn some additional income for my family," he claimed.
About the time the family removaled right into their new log home,Tom began taking into consideration buying a new sawmill to stay up to date with the growing lumber demands. Tom already was accustomed with Cook's Saw Production due to the fact that he used the firm's bandsaw blades.
" I was explore a great deal of different suppliers of blades and also was never ever really satisfied with the efficiency of any of them until I attempted blades from Cook's Saw Production," he stated. "These blades were, by far, better compared to any other blade I had actually used. I stuck to making use of Cook's blades solely."
The custom blades cut straighter, according to Tom.
Tom attended the East Shore Sawmill and also Logging Devices Presentation in 2008 in Portland, OR. and also took a look at and also compared mobile sawmills from a number of manufacturers at the biennial exhibition.
" I contrasted Cook's sawmill to a few other I considered, and also I decided to purchase a brand-new sawmill from Chef's due to the fact that I was so completely satisfied with their blades throughout the years as well as because they were really experienced," said Tom.
" The factor I acquired the mill is because I had so much success with their blades as well as they were always very handy," he included. "I trusted them greater than the various other business I had actually dealt with, and I have been very happy with the sawmill's efficiency."
Tom invested in a Cook's AC-3651D mobile band sawmill. One point that attracted him to the model was that it includes several clamps to safeguard the visit place.
" There are clamps that go into the visit a number of locations along the length of the log versus various other sawmills with simply two clamps," Tom said. "On my old sawmill, the lower piece I sawed would certainly constantly be lost since it was thinner between and also thicker on both ends. With the Chef's mill, the log is sustained the whole time the size with clamps, so the log can not bow upward."
On the Job
Tom created Pacific Trail MFG 25 years ago. A great deal of customers want his sawmill services to make harsh lumber to construct barns and various other barns.
" I just recently did a job for an attorney that is additionally associated with furniture-making," Tom stated. "He had a number of thousand feet of cherry, walnut, and oak, as well as ash. They wanted me to saw all of this so they could make custom furniture using the custom cut lumber."
Before beginning his business, Tom ran his other sawmill part-time given that 1992, and also he delighted in the job. Being an amazing machinist, he figured a sawmill would give a good resource of added income for him as well as his family.
Tom has actually worked in a neighborhood paper mill given that obtaining his machinist instruction, and also he proceeds his 40-hour schedule there each week. He works four 10-hour days at the paper mill, as well as utilizes Fridays as well as Saturdays for his sawmill company. For leisure, Tom takes pleasure in turkey hunting and also spending time with his family.
When Tom obtains a require a sawmill work, the initial thing he inquires about is the nature of the work website and if there is area for his 30-foot-long Chef's sawmill. He commonly checks out each website prior to he begins work to have a look at and also guarantee that it will accommodate the mill.
" I allow them recognize they will certainly need to offer at least two people to catch the lumber coming off the mill because it's a whole lot less complicated to work when I have individuals relocating lumber out of the way after it's been sawed," he stated.
The Cook's Accu-Trac that Tom owns is fully hydraulic and also was designed for high volume manufacturing. The mill could cut logs up to 36 inches in diameter and also evaluating up to 10,000 extra pounds.
Cook's sawmills showcase a four-post head; the four-post building guarantees smooth, straight sawing in and also out of the log.
The mill's remote control terminal, with hand-held remote control box, is developed for operator-friendliness. Controls are placed on a pivoting arm, and a 15-foot long cord allows the driver to walk during the cut in order to obtain the very best sight. The mill also includes a board drag back, constructed from 1/2- inch steel, to bring the board to the operator after it is cut.
When he prepares to visit another work, Tom drawbacks the sawmill tow plan to his vehicle. "I always try to have them have their logs ready in one stack so I could pull my sawmill near the logs," stated Tom. "We just roll the logs from the ground onto the mill making use of the mill's hydraulic lift."
Tom reduces hardwood and also softwood, consisting of yearn, poplar, oak, cherry, walnut, as well as hickory.
" Many people like me to cut a combination of 2×4 and also 2×6 for their rafters and also studs," said Tom. "I additionally saw 1-inch boards since most individuals like a specific size, like a 1×8 for boards they make use of to build their barns. I can saw approximately 20 feet on length."
The Cook's sawmill is simple to adjust, clarified Tom. "The mill has a scale on the side, showing where your blade is in relation to your log. So, if you are making 2×6, you could intend to settle up a 12×12. I reduced that square in fifty percent so I have 2 12×6 items, then I turn those up edgeways as well as cut them down 2 inches at once making 2×6."
After making a cut, he raises the head a little before returning the head to the starting setting for the following cut. "Then, when you bring the head back," said Tom, "you are dragging the boards back right off the mill with you. As the head returns, you are bringing the ended up lumber back, as well as whoever is capturing the lumber takes it from off the rear of the mill as well as stacks as well as sticks the lumber to air dry."
Tom acquired the Chef's sawmill as a bundle that likewise included an edger as well as a blade sharpener. For boards with bark or subside, he sends them through the edger to make even up both sides.
Old-Fashioned Top quality
His business embellishments without advertising and marketing– just word-of-mouth references that maintain new customers calling with even more jobs for Tom. If you ask him just what it is about his company that makes it successful, you are most likely to obtain a modest laugh from Tom.
" Well I have no idea how successful I am, but I do understand that I am able to support my family a great deal far better. My service has actually permitted us to have some things we just would not have had the ability to pay for with simply my one work as a machinist. I presume you could say I am truthful when dealing with my customers."
Oregon Based Aerial Drone Operators And Video Production
How Aerial Drone Operators will Change Video Production
The future is here, and a few drone operators are changing the way everyone does business. In the past, aerial photography and videos were cost prohibitive because you needed a helicopter for every shot. Today times have changed, and lightweight drones are now able to capture amazing footage for a fraction of the cost. Each passing year the price and quality of drone technology continues to improve. Now many companies have released automated drone systems that are controlled by super computers and other advanced technologies.
The video production industry has always been a dynamic business. As technology continues to develop, the tools in which people capture photo and video continue to change. In the beginning the average company had to rely on heavy camera systems that captured low-quality footage. As time progressed, the cameras got smaller and the quality of the video has increased dramatically. In the year 2017 cameras can fit on the head of a pin and weigh virtually nothing. For many established firms, this means they will constantly have to upgrade their gear in order to keep up with the trends. For newbies this is a huge advantage because they are able to use the newest technologies and capture amazing videography at a fraction of the price.
When I first entered the aerial space there was no legal way to make money. the FAA had yet to provide a path for pilots to operate remote aerial vehicles on a commercial basis. Therefore, the majority of pilots flew for fun and to improve their flight skills. As of September of 2016 the FAA cleared a path for commercial drone operators to begin flying. The rules governing these pilots are capsulated by Part 107 by the Federal Aviation Administration. Essentially, anyone who would like to operate commercially has to study and pass a test from the FAA. This test is very similar to that which a pilot would have to pass to get a pilots license, but does not include the actual flight time. In fact, the Part 107 testing does not include any remote aerial vehicle flying time. Therefore, many of the pilots who are operating commercially may have book knowledge, but few know how to fly well. As time progresses, I'm assuming the FAA will add a live flying portion where perspective drone pilots will have to demonstrate their skills.
The world of video production has changed dramatically since the advent of drone technology. The low cost of launching and capturing beautiful aerial footage has opened up a whole new marketing for people looking to capture their business in a unique perspective. Currently, the FAA allows drone pilots to fly under 400 feet in most areas, while aircraft like helicopters must fly over 400 feet. This means that the only way to capture this unique perspective is to hire a certified remote pilot. Plus, many of the angles they are able to capture have never before been seen by the human eye. In the last 6-months the industry has exploded and a plethora of different industries are realizing the value of aerial video and photography. All different types of companies can benefit from these services including golf courses, real estate agents, building inspections, farms, timber companies, developers, conservationists, and more. Instead of paying high fees for helicopter services, drone pilots can deliver the same great video and photography at a fraction of the price. Plus, remote aerial vehicles are much safer to launch and operate.
What do you think the next 10-20 years have in store for the drone industry? I think this industry will explode in popularity a people realize the benefits. Already companies like Amazon have floated the idea of quadcopter delivering their products in cities and other urban areas. While the technology is already there for this to happen, the FAA has yet to clear them for this process. Many have criticized the FAA for moving slowly on the legal portion of commercial remote polite operations. I feel the Federal Aviation Administration has done the correct thing by moving slowly and carefully. The fact of the matter is, drones can be dangerous when flown by an irresponsible pilot, therefore it's important to have rules and regulations monitoring their use. Finally, as more remote pilots come on online, I think in the next 10 years we will see the sky's radically transformed.
If you live in Oregon like most of us and you are looking for a Portland Oregon drone video company to do any film or drone work for you, then I would contact Morrisey video production and they excel in drone photography and video work.

It is no longer a matter of starting a business, putting up a sign, maybe running an add in the paper and waiting for business to come in. Let us not mention running a phone book add. Someone asked me this the other day and I tried my best not to giggle. Who looks in a phone book anymore? I'll tell you, maybe 5% of people. Now if you want to target 5% of people, be my guest. I would prefer to go after the other 95% personally.
So how do we get to the other 95% of people if not through traditional means of advertising? The answer is simple, just ask anyone you pass to help you find the closest restaurant. If they are kind, they will pull there phone out of their pocket and search Google. Do you have a business listing on Google? Do you know how to set one up properly to get found? If you answered no to either one of these, I would highly suggest that you search out a Portland SEO marketing consultant and start asking questions.

Reputable SEO And Marketing Companies
Here in Oregon we are really blessed to have some of the best online marketing companies in the nation.

5 years ago you could spend a few hundred dollars a month and get good results when it came to hiring a search engine marketing specialist. That is not the case today. Spam links do not work anymore like they did 5 years ago. In fact, the can hurt your website to the point that you may never be found.
A professional SEO today will run you anywhere from $1200 a month to $5k or even more depending on the keywords and market you are after. Some businesses this might be hard to justify, but businesses like construction or real estate can justify the cost as it takes very few new clients to make up for it. After that, it is pure profit. Typically once you reach a comfortable spot you can stop paying full price for SEO services and break it down to a nominal fee for maintenance which is a good idea.
I can personally say that I know many who have made the investment and came out way ahead in the end. It does take time (8-10 months) to get good traction, but once you do, it makes up for all the investment fast.

Some Musings About Jesus' Death
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem
بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ ,
1. Jesus died for the sins of mankind.
What does the word death here mean and who is the Jesus being referred to in this statement? The latter predicates the other. For if it is the human Jesus which literally died, then this was not the Son dying. If it is that the Son died, then the Son was not a God.
2. When you say death, what do you mean? Do you mean the death of the flesh or the spirit? If it is the death of the flesh, then the Son did not die, but a creation of God died and thus this was not an ultimate form of sacrifice. If it is the Spirit that died, then is it the spirit of the Son or the Spirit of the Man? If it is the Spirit of the Son, then God died and God cannot die, hence it is a paradox. If it is the Spirit of the man that died, then a creation of God died and thus this was not an ultimate form of sacrifice.
3. If we take John 3:16 as a literal study, then we have numerous paradoxes being applied, for if the Son did 'die', but did not truly 'die', then the 'sacrificial death' was not fulfilled. If you claim the sacrificial death was fulfilled, then this is disproven by Thomas touching a physical body of Christ, whose wounds he felt. Thus if Christ was meant to be an ultimate sacrifice but did not die, but merely suffered wounds and continued to live, then there was no actual sacrifice.
Too many problems.
wa Allaahu Alam,
and Allaah knows best.

One Perfect Morning by Pamela Crane, narrated by Sarah Borges
This is a tale about 3 ladies, Mackenzie, Robin and Lilly and their friendship spanning from teens to adulthood. Everything looks just so perfect from the outside but there are dark secrets and lies beneath the surface and someone dies…..
I enjoyed listening to this story although I did find that with just the one narrator, I was easily confused as to who's tale was being told during the story, and got a little lost.
Overall I really enjoyed this tale – I just wish I had perhaps made some notes from the outset as to whom was who as there are quite a few main characters to keep up with.
4/5 stars from me and I would recommend.

I'm slowly working on colouring the second half of Gawkers, and it will be on-line before new year. My day job has unfortunately been taking ALL my time in December, but hopefully I'll have more time to draw on the new year.

Colonel Samir Jaja's orders to the assembled soldiers before their dawn attack on the village were absolutely clear: "Don't leave anybody alive. If we leave these people in this place, they will support the rebels against the government. The area must be emptied so the rebels can't find any help and have to leave the country."
B Kajabier, 34, a Sudanese army deserter, describes the scene just before Sudanese army troops stormed a village in southern Darfur, Sudan, in April 2003. Colonel Jaja addressed his 400 troops, most of them Arab, but some African, after they descended from their vehicles. There were more precise commands.
"Rape the women, kill the children. Leave nothing," Jaja said.
Six years later Kajabier, who has now fled Sudan, has decided to speak out against the Sudanese government.
"My people are suffering, and I want the world to respond," he said, speaking through an interpreter.
After the April attacks, Kajabier refused to take part in any more raids. He said he was tortured for his insubordination and during the interview pulls up his trouser legs to show the scars from where molten rubber seared flesh.
"When they burned the tyre, they hung it from the tree and it was dripping," he said. A few days later, Kajabier and two other soldiers deserted while the troops were marching through narrow mountain roads.
"We wanted to desert because we were being ordered to kill our own people," the former Sudanese soldier said.
He eventually joined the rebel Justice and Equality Movement (Jem) before fleeing the country.
In the interview, Kajabier made it clear that Sudanese armed forces committed the atrocities, as well as the Arab militia known as the Janjaweed, or devils on horseback.
Kajabier, an African from Darfur who was conscripted into the Sudanese army, said he took part in attacks on several villages in April 2003.
He could not be specific about the number of people who were killed and raped, but said the biggest village consisted of 500 homes.
"It is difficult to give a precise number but there were many dead," he recounted, in a matter-of-fact way.
Kajabier does not use the phrase scorched earth, but that was the clear intent: the villagers were killed, as were the livestock, and the wells were poisoned. The villages, including Korma, Ber Tawila and Sani Koro, are still abandoned, Kajabier said.
"We would surround the villages and the Janjaweed would follow behind on camels and horseback and chase those who managed to slip through the army cordon," Kajabier said. "We started burning the huts one by one and started shooting. Very few people got away."
An estimated 200,000 people have died and 2.7 million have been displaced since fighting erupted between government troops and rebel forces in Darfur in 2003.
Sudan's president, Omar al-Bashir, is the first sitting head of state to face accusations of war crimes and crimes against humanity allegedly committed in Darfur.
Bashir has always insisted that the international community has exaggerated the scale of the crisis and has described the conflict in the region as a "traditional conflict over resources … coated with claims of marginalisation".
The Sudanese government admits mobilising "self-defence militias" after rebel attacks in 2003 but denies any links to the Janjaweed, which has been accused of trying to "cleanse" black Africans from large swaths of territory. But according to Kajabier, the Sudanese government did not just arm the Janjaweed; it sent army troops to take part in the attacks.
According to human rights groups, Sudanese government forces and government-backed militias have committed crimes against humanity and war crimes on a massive scale in Darfur. Human Rights Watch says Sudanese troops and militias attacked civilian populations from land and air and carried out widespread summary execution, rape, torture and pillaging of property.
Kajabier, who still has nightmares and has to take pills to go to sleep, says the worst images are those of children being raped.
"That will always stay with me," said Kajabier, who also described how his fellow soldiers were forced to commit rape. After what he has witnessed, he fully supports moves by the international criminal court to arrest Bashir.
"If they arrest him today, it will be good," he said, "The people of Sudan have suffered so much."

UPDATE! The three members of Pussy Riot have been sentenced to TWO YEARS IN PRISON!
This is beyond ridiculous!
Boycott the 2014 Olympic Games!!!!!
Just learned that Pussy Riot, the chick punkers who have been in detention in Russia for performing an anti-Putin song in a church, have been declared guilty of hooliganism!
What a travesty! This is typical of Putin's imperial Russia, and it also shows the power of the medieval Russian Orthodox Church! No separation of church and state there!
Now some will argue that this is an issue not of what they did, but where they did it… in a church. And I say bullshit! The fact that they performed their anti-Putin tune (a very short tune – they had under a minute before being escorted out) in a church just made it easier for Putin to come down hard on them. And so what if they performed in a church – it is no different from any other building, be it a house, a shed or a government building. This is an attack on free speech and expression… rights that are not respected by Tsar Vlad!
Thanks to WK, for keeping folks like me up to date on this issue…
Heard on CBC Radio this morning that Pierre Polievre likes John Denver tunes… especially Country Roads.
Why does this not surprise me?
I suspect Vic Toews is a big Barry Manilow fan…
Looks like it will be warmer than usual in most of Canada into the Fall.
I wonder if I'll be booking tee times for December.
One last word on the Olympics before shutting up about it for the next couple of years..
It seems as though a lot of athletes were thanking some omnipotent imaginary force for that kick-ass shot put, the extra 2 inches on that high jump and for knocking a half second off their PB in the 100 metres!
I guess this obsession by The Gawd Dude with sports sort of explains why much of the world is going down the crapper. I mean, if God was so damned busy helping out athletes be all that they could be, how the hell did he or she have time for anything else in the world? You know, minor stuff like wars, pestilence, famine, my sore elbow… stuff like that.
But there'll be no rest for the big guy/chick… The NFL season starts soon and Tim Tebow will be putting some huge time demands of the Great Bearded Guy in da Clouds…
Finally, I'd like to get in a little plug for an Ottawa soccer team that is trying to be crowned the BMO Team of the Week 2012 Champion and with it, a $125K soccer pitch renovation and a team trip. The Ottawa Royals Futuro u10 Boys team – a student from my kids' school is part of the team – is currently 4th in voting and I'd like to ask you to help out. Click here for the link, and thanks!

The burning of a Quran by a fringe pastor in Florida was reportedly what enraged an angry mob of thousands, who overran the offices of the United Nations in northern Afghanistan yesterday, killing foreign staffers and their guards.
Of course, there were likely other forces at work — insurgents disguised as demonstrators may have used the protest as a pretext to attack the UN. Several angry mullahs reportedly encouraged their followers to avenge the Quran-burning. But that doesn't make the pastor, Terry Jones, any less culpable for his own self-serving actions. As a Christian extremist, he is just as much to blame as Islamic fundamentalists for inciting violence.
Jones knows this perfectly well, because of what happened last year. Even though he ultimately called off a previous threat to burn the Quran, it still led to protests at NATO facilities in Afghanistan, and at least five deaths.
Two weeks ago, Jones actually did burn the Quran, though the act was less publicized. But clearly, it didn't go unnoticed: sermons against his Quran-burning yesterday were reportedly what prompted the demonstrators to attack the U.N. headquarters in a normally peaceful town in Afghanistan, where the Taliban have little or no presence.
Jones still maintains he is "absolutely not responsible." He says, "If they didn't use the Quran-burning as an excuse, they would have a different excuse."
Maybe so. But Quran-burning is a particularly potent means of igniting an angry crowd. In a fragile country slowly taking charge of its national security, and struggling to police its own extremists, all it takes is one man's hateful act an ocean away to sabotage a crucial diplomatic mission.

Ocean Hill Collegiate Uncommon Charter School
Share this school
Brooklyn NY 11233
Our Insights
What's Special
High academic achievement; good school environment
The Downside
Highly structured classes and long days may not be right for everyone
Ocean Hill Collegiate, which serves grades five through eight, is part of Uncommon Schools, a large charter network that aims to get its largely low-income black and Latino students into college and give them the skills to succeed there.
The school says that many of its students arrive reading below grade level, and so it focuses on this. Like other Uncommon schools, Ocean Hill Collegiate offers double periods of English and math every day. The school day is long, with after-school tutoring and homework, and the school year begins in August. Struggling students must attend classes for four hours on Saturday. The school also stresses what it describes as "a structured academic environment," and sets high standards for student behavior.
Standardized test scores, particularly in math, are above average for the city and considerably higher than at most schools in the area. Teachers have a high opinion of principal Hannah Solomon and the school in general, and the turnover rate is well below that for other Uncommon schools.
The Uncommon network started with middle schools and has expanded to include elementary and high schools, aiming for students to be in the network for grades k through 12. Graduates of Ocean Hill Collegiate can attend Uncommon Preparatory Charter High School, which opened in 2014 on the South Shore campus in Canarsie.
ADMISSIONS: Lottery for grade 5. The school fills any vacancies in grades 6 through 8 from its waitlist. Applications are available from the Uncommon website. (Gail Robinson, DOE statistics and web reports, May 2018)Read more
