National marine art exhibition opens on Maryland's Eastern Shore
The 17th National Exhibition of the American Society of Marine Artists is now open to the public at the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum in St. Michaels, Md. and the Academy Art Museum in Easton, Md. The exhibition continues through April 2, 2017.Contemporary American Marine Art highlights the works of marine artists recognized as the best in contemporary marine art by ASMA's juried competition, and includes more than 120 works of painting, sculpture, and scrimshaw from the nation's leading marine artists. Juried from more than 500 paintings and sculpture submitted for consideration, the works represent a wide variety of subject matter, medium, technique, and inspired vision.
The exhibition is hosted every three years in museums across the United States, and this year debuted on September 8 at the Muscarelle Museum of Art, in conjunction with the First National Marine Art Conference, on September 8 in Williamsburg, Va. The joint exhibition at CBMM and the Academy Art Museum opened December 9, 2016.
"With every National Exhibition comes a dedicated, collaborative effort from the Society's Fellows who judiciously select the 'best of the best' for our prestigious traveling collection of works," commented ASMA President Kim Shaklee. "It is with great pride and enthusiasm that we welcome the public to delve into the mystique of the various mediums in hopes of igniting a spark for the intricacies and nuances lying within the art included in the 17th ASMA National."
"We are honored to bring the nation's best contemporary marine art to CBMM for our members and guests to view and enjoy," said CBMM Chief Curator Pete Lesher. "We identify closely with the mission of ASMA as we both have the goal to preserve, encourage, and highlight maritime practices."
"For years, Pete Lesher and I—as curators in neighboring museums—have worked toward collaborating on a bi-venue exhibition that involves both art and a maritime theme," commented Academy Art Museum Senior Curator Anke Van Wagenberg. "The ASMA exhibition is a natural opportunity for us to work together on a theme that is so dear to our wider community. We are very proud to co-host the exhibition at the Academy Art Museum."
ASMA is a non-profit educational organization whose purpose is to recognize and promote marine art and maritime history, and to encourage cooperation among artists, historians, academics, enthusiasts and others engaged in activities relating to marine art.
Founded in 1958, the Academy Art Museum's expanding collection, exhibitions, and broad spectrum of arts programs is made available to everyone, with a mission to provide the knowledge, practice, and appreciation of the arts needed to enhance cultural life on the Eastern Shore.
Established in 1965, the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum is a world-class maritime museum dedicated to preserving and exploring the history, environment, and people of the entire Chesapeake Bay, with the values of relevancy, authenticity, and stewardship guiding its mission. Serving more than 70,000 guests each year, CBMM's campus includes a floating fleet of historic boats and 12 exhibition buildings, situated in a park-like setting along the Miles River and St. Michaels' harbor.

This event combines live musical performance, discussion and academic papers in an examination of the cross-fertilizing lines of influence between various experimental and popular musics, which muddy boundaries in fruitful and often perplexing ways. We'll kick things off with an hour long discussion featuring scholars Rachel McCarthy and Adam Harper, and then move on to performances and artist talks from Olan Monk, Jacob Samuel and Lisa Busby & Gabriel Bohm Calles (see below for artist bios). [De][Re] Constructing Pop Territories is the inaugural event of the Fringe and Underground Musics Group. This Group is based in the Music Department at Goldsmiths and will run a series of events throughout 2016-17 bringing together creative practice and academic research in relaxed and inclusive settings. Fringe and Underground Musics Group is supported by a Goldsmiths Public Engagement Grant and by the Popular Music Research Unit. ... Artist Details: Lisa Busby and Gabriel Bohm Calles are currently developing collaborative sound and movement work that explores unprofessional frameworks, unheard sounds, untrained bodies; uncovering value in prosaic and overlooked gesture. Informed by their shared research interests in empowerment through the everyday and 'availablism', traditional club or gig experiences are deconstructed, and personal and sociocultural conventions and tropes interrogated and exploded. The 'floor scores' they will present are part of a larger project in partnership with IAC, Malmö Sweden. Biographies: Lisa Busby is a London-based composer, vocalist, and bricoleur. She performs and composes with bands The Nomadic Female DJ Troupe, Rutger Hauser and Sleeps in Oysters, as well as working independently as a solo artist. Gabriel Bohm Calles works mainly with bodies in relation to specific environments – social, virtual and geographical – such as the work place or a social class. Jacob Samuel is a multi-disciplinary artist whose work ranges from sculpture (Lords of Shit Mountain: a work of terracotta sculptures of the service industry) to comics (The Black Book of Capitalism: a comic only readable in direct light). The music of Jacob Samuel matches every element of pop structure while obfuscating its dynamic. Olan Monk is an Irish audiovisual artist & performer.

Looking through a new set of lenses
Students taking their first step into adulthood through CHS Pathways Program
February 4, 2016
One small act of kindness can bring a smile to a person's face. One compliment can give someone more confidence. One program can change a person's life forever: a program like Coppell High School's Pathways Program.
For over 10 years, this program has served as an excellent way for students with disabilities to learn how to be independent. Providing work-based learning on and off campus and community-based instruction for high school and adult students, this program offers a learning experience that these students can take with them beyond high school and into adulthood.
The Pathways Program is led by CHS teachers Mimi Fleming and Melissa Allen. They have worked together over the years and have noticed the effect of the program on the students and their parents.
"I think it's had a very positive effect," Fleming said. "A lot of times we find that it's a very stressful time for the parents so we try and work very closely with them to see what their hopes and dreams are for their kids and we provide them with information and resources so they feel like they have options."
Fleming and Allen not only work closely with the parents, but have also set goals with the students they work with.
"Our whole purpose is to work on their life skills to help them have a life of meaning and purpose," Allen said. "But I just want my students to be the best them that they can be, and that's different for each student."
Despite some difficulties, both of these teachers enjoy their job and see it as a grand opportunity for them as well.
"It's very personal to me," Fleming said. "I love what I do because it's real. It's very, very real and I know that what I'm doing has a long lasting impact on every single one of my students."
Allen also enjoys spending time with and learning from her students.
"You have to have a heart for what you do," Allen said. "You have to want and love to work with them and on the flip side, we get so much more daily rewards from what they give back to us."
CHS senior Ali Gentry, a teacher aide for special needs classes, learns a lot from the students about the importance of being kind.
"My brother has autism so I've grown up in a kind of unique household and I've learned to be a lot more accepting than most people," Gentry said. "These kids have the same feelings and emotions we do and they just need a little bit more help making friends and people just need to be kind and open to that."
Through her experience working with special needs students, Gentry realizes the importance of lending a helping hand to special needs kids and bringing social acceptance to reality.
"Everyone wants to fit in," Gentry said. "A lot of times people are mean just in general, but all anyone really wants is to feel loved and accepted, so I think it's important to make everyone feel that way. And through my experience with special needs kids, I think I am a lot nicer than I would be if I hadn't gone through that."
In addition to students at CHS, Fleming hopes to spark passion in people out in the community who don't have a lot of experience dealing with special needs.
"We're always really afraid that people will take advantage of them when they're out in the world," Fleming said. "But what I hope on teaching other people that we see on a job site or out in the community is that their lives matter. They matter just as much as ours do."
Allen also hopes to change the perspective of the community and help them learn to see through different lenses.
"To me, the biggest thing that I feel like I can do is help change people's perspectives on how to work with students with special needs and how to look at the world differently," Allen said. "We forget the things that we take for granted like knowing how to type on the computer, how to talk to someone, or how to listen and be quiet- those are things we take for granted, yet things that we have to teach them how to do."
Allen advises the students and those in the community about the importance of learning how to talk to and treat students with disabilities.
"The biggest thing that students don't realize is that sometimes they are treated like they're [kids] when they're actually the same age," Allen said. "We mean well, but sometimes these things can hurt them in the end. We need to know how to look through this different set of lenses. All those things we take for granted are a lot of times things that they struggle with. And sometimes we don't realize they have normal feelings too."
Through this program, these teachers, along with many students, have learned to recognize the importance of having passion and patience. Fleming and Allen hope to train the world to see things differently, and to be more caring to those with special needs in the community.

Teach Kids the Value of Saving and Budgeting Money
Do you want your children to make the same mistakes with money as you did? Naturally, you want your children to learn from the mistakes that you made when you were young. If you learned the value of saving your hard-earned money the hard way, you should teach your children about the value of saving and budgeting money.
Instill good habits in them now, before they have to find out on their own. They may still make mistakes, but those mistakes will be their own. As a parent, sister, brother, grandparents, your job is to prevent them from repeating the past. You need to educate your children on money by teaching them the following things:
· Start Teaching Them at a Young Age
Children are fast learners, especially at a young age. You should start teaching them the value of money by playing games with them. Provide them with money to use around the house. For instance, you give them $50 in fake cash, telling them in order to get anything from the fridge; it will cost them $5. Carry on this activity for a week to teach them how to spend money wisely. This will teach them how to budget money, which is good practice for the future.
· Tell Them about the Importance of Money
It's time to take out the children into the real world. Take your child to the grocery store, give them a cart, and tell them the amount of money they can spend on groceries. Take them to every aisle, even their favorite one to let them pick out an item of their choice while staying within the allocated budget. Do not help your child and let them make their own errors if they go over budget. Just repeat the exercise the next day.
· Teach Them about the Importance of Earning Money
Do not give your child an allowance if they didn't earn it. In the real world, they wouldn't be getting any allowance, but will have to work hard for it to get it. So, why not make them work hard, starting from now? You can assign your child with different chores and for each chore that they complete, award them with money. The harder they work to get the money, the more they will value it.
· Show Them Opportunities to Save, Spend, and Invest Money
Give them a piggy bank and tell them to put in $5 from their allowance each week. By the end of the month, they will have around $20 saved up. After three months, they will have $60 saved up. The joy on their face when breaking the piggy bank will be a delight to see. You can help them invest money as well. Open a bank account for them and encourage them to put some of their allowance in there. They will be glad that they did, as they will not touch that money, until they grow older and by then, it will be a lot of money.
In what way, do you encourage your children to save? Do share with us below!
A Selection of Money Quotes

~ Bendixline
"I want the whole of Europe to have one currency; it will make trading much easier." ~ Napoleon I

Knowledge Network
Just before I left my previous job, my group was selected to be part of the Knowledge Network TAP. I only got to see a few demos, but it looks incredible. I did a bit of playing around in college with analyzing my inbox to see who I communicated with the most. KN takes it to another level by aggregating all that data from employees across the company. It also analyzes the content of the emails to determine your areas of expertise. Once all that is in place, anyone can say "I need a SharePoint expert" and the system will return SharePoint experts and the social path to reach them. Maybe a friend of a friend is the person you need to talk to so the friend in the middle can make the introduction. It's a great way to spread knowledge throughout a company with very little effort.
Channel9 has posted a video about the Knowledge Network. They do a lot better job of explaining it than I do.

- Drag queen band Denim are developing a TV comedy drama series with producers Red Planet Pictures
- Glamrou La Denim, Crystal Rasmussen OBE, Electra Cute, Shirley Du Naughty and Aphrodite Greene star
- The mockumentary will follow the group on their dysfunctional 'world tour' (around regional Britain)
Denim, the drag queen band who 'infuse pop with LGBT politics', have signed a deal to turn their fictional 'uplifting life story' into a TV mockumentary.
The group are currently working with TV producers to develop a series, which currently has the working title Denim.
Red Planet Pictures, the TV production company which is known for making Death In Paradise and has previously created ITV sitcom Moving Wallpaper, describe the show as follows: "Denim is a hilarious and uplifting comedic serial drama about a drag queen girlband who believe they are global superstars. The catch? They now have to prove this to the world."
They explain: "Denim is an all singing, all dancing, all delusional musical comedy drag super-troupe, made up of Glamrou La Denim, Crystal Rasmussen OBE, Electra Cute, Shirley Du Naughty and Aphrodite Greene (née Jones). Hilarious and tragic in equal measure, the mockumentary series will follow the Denim Queens on their dysfunctional world tour (around regional Britain), as they gear up for what they *think* is the performance of their lives.
"Viewers will be thrust on a rollercoaster journey with 5 misfits who believe that anything is possible (in a world that tells them it isn't), and where the power of sisterhood and friendship ultimately prevails."
Red Planet Pictures is now working closely with Denim's writer-performers Amrou Al-Kadhi, Tom Rasmussen, Guy Woolf, Hugh Wyld and Charlie Parham, who will write and star in the 30 minute episodic series.
Denim previously appeared at the 2017 Edinburgh Festival with their live show Denim: World Tour, which has now transferred to the Soho Theatre in London.
The group say: "For decades, we know the world has been yearning to know more about the Denim Qweens, to get behind our legendary pop mythologies, beneath the veils of our epic global profile. To give back to our die-hard-7-billion-strong-fanbase, we're going to be giving an all-access camera crew the priceless privilege of following us on our world stadium tour (for security purposes, limited to regional UK venues during filming). No more camouflage. No more secrets. No more hairspray. The Denim Qweens are here. They're queer. And occasionally, they wear sheer."
Announcing the new development, Belinda Campbell from Red Planet Pictures says: "Denim brings together five fantastically original and entertaining voices who have lots to say. Their stage show tackles adversity with a unique infusion of explosive pop, glamour, intelligence, politics and humour, taking audiences on an insightful, joyous and irreverent journey. We are looking forward to continuing this journey through television. It's very exciting to be working with them."

A new initiative from the government involving a Deposit Return Scheme (DRS) for drinks containers could save the country up to £35 million per year. This was announced at the beginning of the month by Michael Gove, the Environmental Secretary.
A study was undertaken by the waste and recycling company Eunomia, who carried it out in 8 different areas found that, depending on the size of the council, they could expect savings of between £65,000-£500,000 per year. Previously, schemes of this nature have been rejected by local councils as it could cause less recyclables to be returned to the council who then sell it on to recycling companies. However, these new figures show that the savings that such a scheme would bring, because of less litter and lower landfill fees would outweigh the loss of revenue.
The report was commissioned by a group of different environmental charities including The Marine Conservation Society, Campaign to Protect Rural England, Surfers Against Sewage, Reloop and Keep Britain Tidy.
Proponents of the idea have said it will reduce rubbish and help detract from the massive issue of plastic pollution, which they say is destroying the natural environment in some areas.
Allison Ogden-Newton, the Chief Executive of Keep Britain Tidy said 'There is no doubt that introducing a deposit refund system would reduce littering in this country but, until now, there has been a concern that it would have a negative impact on cash-strapped councils.
"This report shows that in fact a DRS would create savings for local government," she added.
Samantha Harding, Litter Programme Director at CPRE also responded to the new study and mirrored the thoughts of Allison Ogden Newton.
"There are no longer any valid arguments that DRS doesn't work. The environmental case is crystal clear," she said.
"For our coasts and countryside, the cost of not taking action will be far greater than any incurred by the parts of industry that are trying to block this.
"Michael Gove can now build on the success of the Government's plastic bag charge and the ban on microbeads by confirming England will have a deposit system."
Germany and Denmark both have DRS initiatives and the benefits show with over 90% of bottles returned through the scheme. However, in England only 57% of bottles are returned through the traditional recycling method, further fuelling arguments that a chance of tactic is necessary.
New figures that indicate that around 35 million plastic bottles are sold in the UK every day, which would mean that over 15 million bottles get put in the rubbish every day. This contributes to the eight million tons of plastic that are dumped in the ocean every year.

From the New York Green Party:
Dear Howie Hawkins and Green Party supporters,
The Green Party State committee has established an issues committee to help coordinate state level work around issues critical to the green agenda in NY. We are looking for volunteers.
Please contact Mark Dunlea (dunleamark [at] aol [dot] com) or Gloria Mattera (gmattera [at] gmail [dot] com) if you would like to be on the issues committee. Please let us know what role you would like to play (e.g., work on a particular issue, receive action alerts).
Most green work on issues takes place on the local level, so we can put you in contact as well with local Green Party groups across the state.
Our success in getting back our ballot line means we will get a little more attention from the mainstream media than before. There is a critical need for a strong progressive voice at the state level, especially with Governor elect Cuomo joining in the bi-partisan effort to respond to the Great Recession with an austerity program of protecting tax cuts for the wealthy, attacking benefits for public employee unions, and slashing funding for essential public services.
Some of the key Green issues being looked at for 2011 include: a ban on hydrofracking for natural gas; education; state budget / progressive revenue options; single payer health care; climate change; and peace/ cut the military budget. Continue Reading

Can companies learn something from Tiger Woods?The world famous pro golfer was respected for his competitive skills which implied that he was a good guy. Once that the premise proved incorrect, the respect evaporated. The same applies to companies.
It is not possible to separate what is on top from what lies "beneath". Rebuilding one's own reputation is an arduous task for companies in the same way that it is for Tiger Woods. Now that several months have passed since Tiger Woods was fodder for the front page news, it would be useful to take another look at the sound and the fury that was 'l'affair Tiger'. Woods was – and is, until otherwise proven – a truly remarkable athlete. In fact, when all is said and done, he will likely be considered the finest golfer ever. He will not, however, be considered the finest person ever.
Golf is an enormously popular pastime around the world; over sixty million men and women in play. While scratch golfers are quite different from weekend duffers, they both play on the same courses, use the same equipment, and face the same sand traps. (One difference is that professional golfers miss the sand traps, while your ball heads always right towards them.) Because golf is a sport that can be played by every man and woman, Tiger was particularly vulnerable at the head of the pack, followed by millions. He never failed, however, to play the game with excellence. He failed miserably, however, as a person and a role model. The stories of his extra-marital activities are now common knowledge. He cheated to the extreme, behaving beyond mere unacceptability. None of this activity had anything to do with his profession as a golfer. It had to do with him as an individual seeking our attention. As a result, he lost the respect of the public, as well as (possibly) his marriage, his family and the pristine reputation that was always too good to be true. Upon reflection, Tiger's image of perfection was unwarranted to begin with ,and too perfect to last. No one can behave as he did and maintain his balance forever. His value as an icon brought him riches in endorsements that only had a certain amount to do with his performance as a golfer, and much to do with his image.
What then will this mean for his future in sport? Tiger will return shortly to the links and reestablish his reputation as a great golfer. He will win many tournaments and always be close to the lead in those he does not win. He will quickly win back those fans who now find him distasteful. Golfers have a long career life, and he will have decades of success. Tiger will not, however, be able to recapture his glory as a brand. He is not the first athlete to prove he has feet of clay, and, despite his long drives and steady putting, he won't be able to recover his reputation. He will be seen as a person who squandered the public's trust. Some would argue that Tiger needs to be further punished, but no one has suggested he engaged in criminal wrongdoing. Others would say he has been punished enough by the media trials and the public censure. Neither seems correct. He has certainly suffered a monetary loss, but that was based on his losing an image that was never warranted by the real, albeit previously unknown, facts. His punishment will come throughout his career because, however well he performs on the golf courses of the world, he will always be seen as banished from heaven. Are there lessons to be learned from Tiger's tragedy? He aspired to excel in his work and achieved it. He stood out publicly for perfection, and, at least for a while, achieved that as well. He lived a double life with a coating of completeness that covered troubling behavior in his personal life. We don't get to choose what we really are, but few rise as high as Tiger and few fall as far.

Often, what seems an impossible climb is just a staircase without the steps drawn in. ~Robert Brault, www.robertbrault.com
The world needs dreamers and the world needs doers. But above all, the world needs dreamers who do. ~Sarah Ban Breathnach, Simple Abundance: A Daybook of Comfort and Joy, 1996
We are all dreamers. We are all amazing individuals. We have the ideas, the thoughts, the hopes, of the lifestyle we want, we long for, we often don't feel as if we don't deserve this dream. See, we know our faults. We know where we've made our mistakes, we know what we've done. Kinda like that movie, " I know what you did last summer." ( 1997 film based on 1991 Lois Duncan novel). Hidden slights, angry words, the white lie we told that we've built in our guilt to an issue far more than anyone else remembers. See, we beat ourselves up. We create within ourselves this idea that we are a horrible person, everyone remembers what we did, yet the truth is most people have their own problems, the guilts, the regrets, no one really keeps the grudge against us. Most importantly, the Most High does not hold a grudge. The universe, the spiritual world let go of that a long time ago. Now this doesn't mean we can keep going on making the same mistakes! Once a recovering alcoholic worked for me. She kept throwing temper tantrums, then coming back saying, she had reworked her 4th step , making amends , she was sorry. Finally I had to sit her down, say that doesn't work, if one keeps making the same mistakes. It is disruptive to the other staff in the restaurant, also gives everyone the idea that this behavior is okay. People live by example, our karma works this way as well. In the end, we all have times we don't listen to our inner voices so we do really dumb things. Yet, as we are forgiven, we forgive others, we become humble, we not only receive love, we draw our dreams to us.
Animal totems: Mouse: Sister mouse scampered back into the hole she bore out of our wall. This totem is most often afraid because she knows that she is overwhelmed by stealing the bread out of the cupboard, or eating a hole in our cake. Her great medicine is being able to see the details. Yet this totem reminds us not to stay focused on the little details. In other words, don't sweat the small stuff. This makes life harder than it has to be, keep it simple.
I am here my usual hours today. May the fairies dance around each of us today. Love ya, Me Cherokee, Cidro, Frankiecapone, Sugar Fortune Cookie, T and the sweet spirit of Bob and Bets.

Despite concerted efforts towards improving primary and secondary education in the country, the newly appointed Executive Secretary of Universal Basic Education Commission, UBEC, Dr. Hameed Bobboyi, has said basic education has suffered serious neglect.
Bobboyi, who spoke in Abuja while assuming duty, called on relevant stakeholders to play an active role towards revamping the sub-sector as there is no alternative to fixing the nation's basic education.
In a statement by the Public Relations Officer of the Commission, Mrs. Helen Okoro, the UBEC boss, noted that for the country to achieve the needed quality education and production of critical mass of manpower to drive Government's development agenda, the foundation of basic education must first be established.
He acknowledged that there were multiple challenges confronting basic education sector in Nigeria but expressed confidence that with all relevant stakeholders working together, the much desired quality basic education would be achieved.
"We cannot get it right without properly laying a solid foundation for the growth and development of basic education. Yes, basic education is on the concurrent list, we all need to work collectively to revamp the sector.
"I understand that the Federal government has done a lot through UBEC. We will sustain that and we will also meet with the state governments and relevant stakeholders in this regard," he said.
Bobboyi pledged to give priority attention to the welfare of staff of the Commission while also urging them to continue to discharge their duties with utmost level of patriotism, honesty and hard work.
Also speaking, the former Executive Secretary of UBEC, Dr. Suleiman Dikko, said the inability of some state governments to pay in matching grants to access UBEC allocations for the development of basic education in their domains, was a major challenge to the Commission. – See more at: http://www.theabujainquirer.com/?page=1597&get=1597#sthash.ZxWiKdZK.dpuf

Assistance is available for a diverse group of low income Kalamazoo Michigan families. The local community action agency administers emergency assistance for paying bills, housing, and rent. There are social services and programs for veterans, senior citizens, and the unemployed. The non-profit community action group is committed to helping as many less fortunate residents as possible during their time of need.
Emergency financial assistance may be offered by appointment only. There may be funds to pay utility bills for households faced with a disconnection. Other resources may be referrals to rental assistance, eviction prevention, or prescription medication programs. The homeless can learn about transitional housing sites in the county or loan programs that may help pay a portion of a security deposit. Other support is energy conservation and case management from Kalamazoo Community Action Agency case managers. Dial 373-5066.
Weatherization from Kalamazoo Community Action Agency is the main federal government sponsored conservation program. Call 373-5066 for details. For low income families, they can receive assistance in the form of checking the condition of the furnace and/or water heater, weather stripping windows, insulation, and other energy conservation measures.
These updates will be done on homes to ultimately reduce their annual energy bills. It frees up the homeowners money for other needed basic needs or expenses. Those from Kalamazoo Michigan that are receiving FIP, SSI, or SDA are automatically eligible for these free weatherization services.
Veterans in the area can get referrals and guidance. The non-profit will help military members and their families. Get information on VA / Department of Veterans Affairs benefits and how to file for them.

While in some cases it will be free, in most cases the services are offered at a reduced rate based on household income and the families need. Telephone - 373-5217.
There is some very limited coverage for an emergency. This will only be for walk ins and is first come and served. There is often a waiting period and there are no guarantees that all emergencies will be addressed by the Kalamazoo dental clinic.
Kalamazoo Community Action Agency also works closely with the Area Agency on Aging. This will help seniors, older adults, their caregivers, and others maintain their independence and health in their homes and communities. The non-profit offers a network of coordinated services to older adults.
There are several services from the Area Agency on Aging. Qualified clients can receive information and referrals to government aid such as Medicare and Social Security. Or get referrals to Meals on Wheels programs, prescription medications, and medical care needs.

Manulife US Reit to undertake rights issue to partly fund property acquisition
MANULIFE US Real Estate Investment Trust (Manulife Reit) will undertake a rights issue of over 299 million new units at the issue price of US$0.695 per rights unit to raise about US$208 million to fund a proposed acquisition in New Jersey.
The Reit on Sunday said in a release that it will acquire from John Hancock Life Insurance Company the 30-storey Class A office building in Jersey City known as 10 Exchange Place, for US$313.2 million.
Manulife Reit, the first pure-play US office reit listed in Asia, said the estimated total cost of the acquisition, comprising the purchase consideration, acquisition fee and professional and other fees and expenses, is about US$332 million. This will be funded through debt financing and proceeds from the rights issue. The reit's manager's acquisition fee will be paid in the form of units of Manulife Reit.
At an issue price of US$0.695 per rights unit, the rights issue provides an opportunity for unitholders to subscribe for their pro rata entitlement to the rights units at a discount of 28 per cent to the closing price of US$0.965 per unit on the Singapore Exchange on Aug 31, 2017.
The property to be acquired is located on the Hudson River waterfront in New Jersey and has unobstructed views of the Manhattan, New York Cit skyline and the Statue of Liberty.
"According to independent market research consultant, Cushman & Wakefield, the Hudson Waterfront District is considered to be the strongest office market within Northern New Jersey, having historically outperformed the greater regional market in terms of occupancy levels and rental rates. The Hudson Waterfront District is a highly desirable location for world-class financial institutions that seek close proximity and accessibility to Manhattan at substantially lower rents. In recent years the market has continued to mature and attract other types of businesses, including technology firms," said the reit.
With a net lettable area (NLA) of over 730,000 square feet, the property will be the reit's largest acquisition to date.
As at end July 2017, the property was 93.1 per cent leased with a weighted lease expiry (WALE) of 5.7 years by NLA. It has a total of 25 tenants and the top five tenants by cash rental income are Amazon Corporate LLC; ACE American Insurance Company; Rabo Support Services, Inc; Kuehne & Nagel, Inc and Opera Solutions, LLC.
The agreed-upon purchase price of the property of US$313.2 million represents a discount of 6.8 per cent to RERC, LLC's appraised value of US$336 million and a discount of 5.1 per cent to Colliers International Valuation & Advisory Services, LLC's appraised value of US$330.0 million. These discounts exclude estimated settlement adjustments.
Upon completion of the acquisition, the reit's aggregate appraised value and NLA will be enlarged by 34.2 per cent and 32.5 per cent, respectively.
Jill Smith, chief executive of Manulife US Real Estate Management said: "This acquisition demonstrates our ability to grow inorganically through the addition of another yield accretive property at the right price. In just over one year, our assets under management have grown by 68.1 per cent from US$777.5 million to US$1.3 billion."

3 arrested for phone store burglary in Spring
Three Houston men were arrested after a police chase on Tuesday for allegedly burglarizing a phone store in Spring.
The three men — Calvin Green, 40; Shadrick Jones, 29; and Albert Clifton, 37 — were booked into Montgomery County jail on charges of burglary and unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, according to a news release from the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office.
The incident began shortly before 4 a.m. on Oct. 30, when a man called 911 to report a possible burglary at a Boost Mobile store at 1511 Rayford Road in north Spring.
The caller told police he was following a white Ford pickup truck that had just left the Boost Mobile store. Alarms were going off at the mobile store, and the truck was carrying a safe, the caller said.
Authorities attempted to pull over the truck, but the driver refused to stop, according to the news release. Deputies pursued the truck to the Greenspoint area in north Houston, where one suspect bailed from the vehicle and was apprehended.
The two remaining suspects were later arrested at an apartment complex on 1000 Greens Road, authorities stated.
The news release does not clarify which suspect bailed from the vehicle and which two were arrested at the apartment complex. The Montgomery County Sheriff's Office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
All three suspects were still in custody as of Monday morning, Montgomery County jail records indicate.

21 November 2017Weight Watchers
What is the diet?
The Weight Watchers program has been around for more than 50 years. Jean Nidetch founded the program, which began by inviting friends to her home for a weekly discussion about the best ways to lose weight. Weight Watchers is not really a diet, but rather a program for lifestyle-change. You can eat whatever you want, however the program incentivizes you to make healthier choices using its points system.
Weight Watchers has updated its program over the years, basing its changes on the evolving science of nutrition and weight management. In 2015, Weight Watchers launched the Beyond the Scale Program. At the core is the SmartPoints value that is assigned to foods and beverages based on calories, saturated fat, sugar and protein. This updated version of Weight Watchers leads you to choose more fruits, vegetables, and lean protein because they have lower point values. The daily points allowance is based on gender, age, height and weight, and everyone gets at least 30 points a day. Another component of the new program is called Beyond the Scale. It helps you track daily physical activity and gives credit for activities from housework to jogging, tailoring the program to an individual's fitness level. It also focuses on behavioral change and overall health, rather than simply focusing on weight.
- Weight Watchers guides you to healthier foods but is flexible and allows favorite indulgences.
- The points system is a simple tool to select and track food and drink.
- The points system emphasizes higher-protein, higher-fiber, lower-sugar foods that can help keep you full longer.
- Weight Watchers emphasizes behavioral aspects of weight management that can lead to longer periods of success with weight management.
- It can be adapted for all types of eating styles and therapeutic diets, such as kidney or allergy diets.
- It has a mobile phone app or desktop food database with the points values for more than 290,000 foods.
- The mobile app syncs with other activity tracker apps, including FitBit and Jawbone.
- Pre-packaged meals and snacks are widely available in grocery stores for those seeking easy preparation and points tracking.
- Weight Watchers can be costly if you opt for all program offerings.
- Some of the pre-packaged Weight Watchers foods can be high in sodium. Check the label.
- The unlimited fruit allowance (free points for fruit) could be a problem for those with diabetes or who overindulge with fruit.
- Tracking points might not be enough for certain medical conditions. People with diabetes who need to count carbs (especially for insulin:carb ratios), people who have had weight loss surgery, and people with kidney disease will want to use a more comprehensive nutrient tracker.
Weight Watchers program costs vary according to the three plan options and available specials. There is a $20 starter fee that may be waived with specials. Rates can be paid weekly or monthly, and range from $4.61 per week for the online-only program to $10.77 for the personal phone-coaching and online program. The monthly all-inclusive package, called Total Access, costs $69.95 per month. There is no long-term contract required. If you are employed, check with Human Resources to see if your employer offers assistance with fees. Contact Weight Watchers for current prices and available specials.
Social Support
- Unlike the original Weight Watchers program that had in-person meetings only, the new program offers three different plans for added flexibility: Online only, online with 30-minute local meetings or online with coaching.
- The local meetings are led by a trained Weight Watchers facilitator, who has lost and maintained weight. Members discuss weekly progress and problem-solve together.
- Weight Watchers offers a wide assortment of support, such as optional in-person meetings, personal coaching, an online community forum, a magazine, newsletter and a website with recipes, tools, tips and more. There is even an option for 24/7 online chat with a program expert.
Of the many weight loss programs out there, Weight Watchers stands out as the strongest leader of the pack. US News & World Report ranks diets annually, using input from a national panel of health experts. Diets are ranked according to ease of following, nutrition, safety, effectiveness, and protection against diabetes and heart disease. In 2017, Weight Watchers was ranked #1 for Best Weight-Loss Diet, #1 for Best Fast Weight-Loss Diet, #1 for Easiest Diet to Follow, and #1 for Best Commercial Diet Plan.
Weight Watchers has a decent amount of research to back up its claims for effective weight loss. US News & World Report provides a nice summary of available studies. One review in Circulation showed that Weight Watchers was the only diet that "consistently demonstrated greater efficacy at reducing weight at 12 months". Another 2016 study published in the American Journal of Public Health, showed significant improvements in blood sugar control at 6 months, with those improvements sustained at 12 months. This is why many health care professionals, including myself, recommend Weight Watchers as a sensible option for weight loss and healthy living.
Who would most benefit from this diet?
Anyone seeking a weight loss program that uses an easy points system and a comprehensive package of support options could benefit from Weight Watchers.
Is it viable long term?
Yes, Weight Watchers is safe and effective long term.
Do I like this diet?
Yes, I am a fan of this time-tested, solid weight-management program that focuses on healthy lifestyle, food and exercise tracking, and positive social support.

Featherstone Young's gallery-beneath-a car park in Wrexham has seen off six other shortlisted schemes to win the 2019 Gold Medal for Architecture in Wales
The £4.3 million project – Tŷ Pawb project, meaning Everybody's House – was announced as the country's best new building at the National Eisteddfod of Wales on Saturday (3 August).
The 3,705m² scheme transformed the town's old People's Market, in the spaces below a still-operational 1980s multistorey car park, into a new creative hub with art galleries, market stalls, performance space, a learning centre, cafés, studios and meeting rooms.
The 'visionary' project was chosen ahead of Dow Jones' Maggie's Centre in Cardiff, primary schools by Architype and HLM, a house by Hall + Bednarczyk, a university media hub by BDP with Rural Office for Architecture and a gallery and workshop at St Fagans, by Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios.
Gold Medal judge and architect Trevor Skempton said: 'The future of our town centres and high streets is a pressing concern for architects, and Tŷ Pawb tackled this urban problem in an immediate and imaginative way, by recycling and retrofitting a town centre structure from the 1980s.
'There was evidently visionary architectural thinking in Wrexham County Borough Council's commissioning process, in which the possibility of using space in this way was first identified.
'Realisation of what has been called baggy space, the introduction of warmer materials, the 'choreography' of the new services, clear respect for the qualities of the existing structure, and the exciting co-ordination of graphics and furniture design, have led towards an integrated architecture of genuine quality, with exciting potential for further growth and development.'
Imgs ty pawb3
Sarah Featherstone of Featherstone Young said the scheme had 'social value at its heart'. She said: 'Our baggy space concept applied to the physical spaces has extended to the exhibition programming and invites the wider community to use the building in a range of different ways and have a platform to raise important local and cultural issues.'
Meanwhile the award for the best small project with a value of up to £750,000 – the Plaque of Merit – was handed to Dow Jones' 'convincing' Maggie's Centre.
All seven of the finalists for the Gold Medal form the basis of the Architecture in Wales exhibition at Llanrwst, which runs until 10 August 2019.
Carole-Anne Davies, chief executive of the Design Commission for Wales, added: 'The shortlist and award winners this year have been characterised by the ingenuity that accompanies very good design. The constraints of tight sites and seemingly intractable urban challenges have created the conditions for the very best creative problem solving, intrinsic to architectural excellence.
'Clearly addressing the need for buildings and places where people can connect and communicate with one another is vital for well-being and cohesion.'
Last year the award was picked up by KKE Architects for St David's Hospice In-patients Unit at Newport and in 2017 by Stride Treglown for Ysgol Bae Baglan in Port Talbot.

Using readability analysis to make students stronger writers
Published September 25, 2017 | Multidisciplinary
Communication is one of 5 common competencies developed throughout CEGEP education. College students turn in written work in most, if not all, of their courses. Thus, to hone their writing skills, they need sustained support across classes. Training students on the concept of readability may help them become more mindful and effective readers and writers.

Helzberg Hall, Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts
A magnificent evening of classical music with the Kansas CityChamber Orchestra featuring some of Park ICM's most acclaimed students is coming to the Kauffman Center on Saturday April 27 th. Including Mansur Kadirov, cello, Igor Khukhua, Violin, and Kenny Broberg, Silver Medalist of the 2017 Van Cliburn Piano Competition, on piano, Kansas Citians will have the opportunity to hear some of the most iconic classical concertos ever written. "Audiences will travel the road from the playfulness and vivacity of the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto, to the heart melting solo cello lines of the Tchaikovsky Rococo Variations, and finally to the mountain-top experience of the Beethoven "Emperor" Concerto, truly one of the great achievements in western music," said Bruce Sorrell, music director of the Kansas City Chamber Orchestra.
"These concertos are the required repertoire of world class musicians to showcase their technical abilities and musical artistry," said Dr. Roger Kugler, Park ICM director, referring to the Spring Horizon's repertoire. "To hear these emerging artists perform side-by- side with some of Kansas City's most talented musicians in Helzberg Hall is an amazing opportunity. Even those who don't consider themselves classical music lovers will be moved by these pieces. It will be a very transforming experience for everyone involved – musicians and audience."
Beethoven: Overture "The Creatures of Prometheus
Tchaikovsky: Variations on a Rococo Theme, op. 33 – Mansur Kadirov, cello soloist
Mendelssohn: Violin Concerto in E minor, op.64 – Igor Khukhua, violin soloist
Beethoven: Piano Concerto in E-flat Major, op. 73, "Emperor" – Kenny Broberg, piano soloist
Individual tickets for Spring Horizons range from $20 to $40; senior and student discounts are available. Purchase tickets online at KCChamberOrchestra.org, through the Central Ticket Office by calling (816) 235-6222, or at the Kauffman Center Box Office and website.
About the Artists:
A native of Minneapolis, 24-year- old pianist, Kenny Broberg, won the silver medal at the Fifteenth Van Cliburn International Piano Competition for performances that showed "an imaginative shaping of themes, revelation of inner voices, and an unfailing sense of momentum" (Texas Classical Review). His 2017–2018 debut season as Cliburn medalist includes a recital tour in Hawaii, a return to his alma mater, the University of Houston, for its annual Texas Music Festival, and orchestra and recital engagements in Denver, New Orleans, West Palm Beach, and other cities across the United States. In Europe, Mr. Broberg appears with the Rye Arts Festival and Hastings Philharmonic in the United Kingdom, and in recital in Italy. His debut solo album was released by Decca Gold in August 2017, as part of his Competition prizes.
Mansur Kadirov was born in 1989 in Tashkent, Uzbekistan into a musical family. He began cello studies at the age of eight under Novikova Margarita Konstanstinovna at the Reingold M. Glier Music School and by the age of ten, he was regularly featured on radio and television in Tashkent and was invited to perform at government functions. In 2003, Kadirov won his first cello competition, at a competition for young performers in Tashkent. In 2010, Kadirov was accepted into Park International Center for Music on full scholarship. He has since performed at both the Folly Theater and the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts. In 2012, he performed in Alice Tully Hall in Lincoln Center. In 2013, he was featured on Kansas City Public Radio, performing Paganini's Moses Variations. In the same year, he won the Sigma Alpha Iota scholarship auditions in Kansas City. Kadirov was also invited by David Ramael to perform in recitals throughout New York City, where he performed in Queens College and Southampton. In 2014, he joined renowned violinist Shmuel Ashkenasi in performing the Schubert String Trio in Bb Major. Later that year, Mansur Kadirov was the grand prizewinner of the Naftzger Young Artist Auditions.
Igor Khukhua was born in Novosibirsk (Russia), studied at the Moscow State Conservatory and was an artist with the Moscovia Orchestra. In 2016 he successfully won the competition that would place him with a full-time position with the St. Petersburg Philharmonic Orchestra but declined the offer, opting instead to come to the US to study with Park ICM Professor Ben Sayevich. Since arriving in the US, Igor has won second prize at the Hudson Valley Philharmonic String Competition in New York and won first prize at the Naftzger Artists Competition. He amazed audiences with his US debut on the Muriel Kauffman Theatre Stage in the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts shortly after his arrival in 2016.
The Kansas City Chamber Orchestra, now in its 31st season, is the region's only professional resident chamber orchestra. Founded by Bruce Sorrell, the orchestra features talented professional musicians who live and work in the metropolitan area including members of the Kansas City Symphony, music faculties of the University of Kansas and the Conservatory at University of Missouri – Kansas City, or freelance professionals. For more information, visit KCChamberOrchestra.org .

By Bob Unruh
© 2010 WorldNetDaily
A federal judge has ruled the seizure of thousands of Gospel tracts from a Texas ministry by U.S. Secret Service agents not only was illegal, it violated Fourth Amendment protections against an overbearing and intrusive government.
The decision yesterday by Judge Jorge Solis of the Northern District of Texas came in the long-running dispute over a tract deliberately made to look like a $1 million bill.
The Million Dollar Bill tract was created by evangelist Ray Comfort, who also is author of "Nothing Created Everything: The Scientific Impossibility of Atheistic Evolution," and "You Can Lead An Atheist to Evidence, but You Can't Make Him Think."
"The Million Dollar Bill, taken as a whole, poses no reasonable risk of deceiving an honest, sensible, and unsuspecting person," the judge wrote. "First and foremost is the fact that the Million Dollar Bill purports to be worth a million dollars. There is no genuine currency in this amount.
"More importantly, the amount the bill purports to be worth would lead any unsuspecting, honest, and reasonable person to become suspicious of the [bill's] genuineness. Though many people would readily accept a one-hundred dollar bill without thinking there was a need to even give the bill a cursory examination, a reasonable and honest person would suspect that a bill purporting to be worth a million dollars is not genuine."
Further, the judge ruled that the agents who confiscated 83 packets of the Gospel tracts from the Denton, Texas, offices of the Great News Network violated the U.S. Constitution.
Solis noted that the agents went to the office and confronted workers, demanding the tracts. The workers told the agents ministry leader Darrel Rundus was the only person who could give them permission to take the privately owned property. Rundus had said he would cooperate if the agents got a warrant or a court order, which they had chosen not to do.
According to the court's opinion, the agents then threatened arrest if the workers did not cooperate.
"Agent [Mickey] Kennedy was not subtle in the manner by which he implied that he was taking the Million Dollar Bills with him no matter what – even if it meant arresting Mr. [Timothy] Crawford in the process. The facts and circumstances surrounding Agent Kennedy's statements to Mr. Crawford on June 2, 2006, leave no doubt that Mr. Crawford believed he would be arrested if he did not retrieve the Million Dollar Bills from the closed closet in which they were hidden out of the agents' sight," the judge ruled.
"Agent Kennedy's coercive tactics not only resulted in an unconstitutional search and seizure, it also resulted in bringing disrepute to the noble profession of law enforcement," Solis wrote.
Further, the judge concluded that the agents involved in the seizure later "conspired together to cover up the actual events that took place at GNN's office.
"Agents Kennedy and [Erin] Erdman persisted in covering up these events by being untruthful when they took the witness stand during the bench trial for this case," the judge concluded.
WND contacted Secret Service offices in Dallas and in Washington, but no one would comment on the case.
Rundus told WND he was pleased with the outcome, and his attorney, Steve Crampton, said he was pleased with the ruling, given the stonewalling and coverup that appeared to have taken place throughout the government's case.
"Hopefully, they will go back and rethink their big-picture strategy," Rundus said.
The tracts at issue invite a recipient to answer the "million dollar question: Will you go to Heaven?"
The case was brought on behalf of the Great News Network, which was distributing the tracts. Crampton argued the case on behalf of the Florida-based non-profit legal advocacy group Liberty Counsel.
The tracts clearly state they are not legal tender and contain the Gospel message.
They are published by the Living Waters ministry of evangelist and author Ray Comfort, who says he has distributed millions over the years.
Rundus sued the U.S. Department of Homeland Security for violations of the Constitution's First Amendment right to free speech and the Fourth Amendment guarantee against unlawful search and seizure. The judge wrote that because he decided the tracts are not illegal, he didn't have to reach a conclusion whether the statutory provisions the government alleged were being violated were constitutional.
Rundus has reported the tracts are extremely effective. He uses them to share his faith with others. While the front of the tract has markings similar to paper currency, it states "This bill is not legal tender," "Thou Shalt Not Steal" and "Department of Eternal Affairs."
The judge noted those are among the indicators, along with the biblical quotations, that would tip off a "reasonable" person, along with the fact there is no such bill.

I recently wrote an online news story for New Scientist about 1.5-million-year-old footprints discovered in Kenya. I found some of the readers' comments disturbing. It took me a while to figure out why.
The research article appeared in Science on February 27, 2009. It described the discovery and study by an international team of researchers of the second oldest footprints left by human ancestors--the oldest showing unambiguous evidence of modern foot anatomy and our efficient way of walking.
Although bipedalism dates back several million years earlier, the footprints reveal that our ancestors--from foot size and shape almost certainly early Homo erectus--had evolved anatomically modern feet and a springy stride like ours by 1.5 million years ago.
At first I was pleased to see that the story generated lots of comments. It's good to know that people are reading what one writes.
The first few comments were fine, but I was unpleasantly surprised to find that the conversation quickly devolved into an exchange between creationists and supporters of evolution.
I had several reactions. The first was irritation, like finding that an uninvited guest has crashed your party. The second was frustration, even anger, at the creationists' glib dismissal of the dozen scientists who had discovered, painstakingly excavated, and carefully analyzed the footprints, not to mention a century or more of physics, geology, paleontology and, of course, evolution.
Everything was fair game, from the identification of the footprints--"The look like gorilla prints to me,"--to the dating--"1.5 million years ago? Was someone there to make a record of the date?"--to the theory of evolution as a whole--"None of which is supported by any evidence except what men decide to believe."
It was obvious that when any mere field of science got in the way of creationism, the science had to be trashed.
In the end, however, I realized that my strongest feeling was boredom. When I tried to read the creationists' comments, my attention wandered, my eyes glazed over, and I wanted to be doing anything other that trying to make sense of comments like "All features of a species have an ability to adapt to an environment . . . but that is a far cry from turning a fish into a bird."
Creationism, I realized, is God-awful boring.
Creationsim collapses the vast grandeur of the cosmos into a morality play about--you guessed it--us.
Not counting old-Earth creationists, who accept a geological time scale but still reject evolution, creationists pancake the universe's nearly 14 billion year history into a few thousand years.
Here on earth, creationists replace the chaotic creativity of more than four billion years of geological, chemical, and biological churning with six days of check-list Creation.
In the end, creationism answers every question about how we and everything we find around us got that way with, "God (excuse me, the Intelligent Designer) made it that way."
How did those footprints end up buried under layer after layer of distinct, datable sediments? God put them there.
What does it mean that, suitably measured, the ratio of argon-40 to argon-39 in the volcanic ash above the footprints is a tad lower than in the ash below them? Could it mean that the lower layer is a few hundred thousand years older? Nope. God salted those isotopes in just that way.
What can we learn by comparing these footprints to the 3.7-million-year-old Laetoli prints? Could their differences shed light on the evolution of our feet and walking style? Nah. God made the Laetoli prints smaller, wider and flatter, and these new prints longer, slimmer and more arched. Don't ask why.
What's the relationship between the increased mobility of Homo erectus that these prints confirm and the fact that it became the first hominin to leave Africa and thrive across Europe and Asia? Hmm. Must have something to do with the expulsion of Adam and Eve from Eden. Check out Genesis 1:26 through 3:24 for the details.
It's not that an omnipotent Intelligent Designer isn't a good-enough answer to such questions, it's that it is way to good an answer. It's a game ending, that's-all-she-wrote, one-size-fits-all, alpha-to-omega, end-of-story, let's-all-go-gome, hydrogen bomb answer.
By answering everything, it answers nothing.
I obvioiusly don't understand the need for capital-C Certaintly and capital-T Truth that creationists seem to share.
I'm much more curious about what the next dig will turn up, how the next fossil or footprint of flower-strewn burial will change our understanding of our past, what a more detailed understanding of the changing geology and climate of east Africa two or three million years ago will tell us about the challenges our ancestors faced and why some of them survived and reproduced (and yes, evolved), while others faded away.
I know that I'll never get Certainty or Truth from science. What excites me is what science gives us every day--new and better answers to old questions, and answers that provoke new and better questions.
God may be The Answer, as the bumper stickers and billboards tell me. Perhaps to some people and some questions, but just not to the questions that science and scientists ask.

Toronto – day five
Our last full day in Ontario
Our last full day in Ontario
The day of a million cheers
Catching up with an old friend, visiting a new part of town and the main event: Summer Slam
More wrestling, more food
Getting to town, getting our bearings, getting prepared for the busy week ahead
Here we go. We're at the airport, scrounging for some decent food, trying to catch a few key moments of tonight's episode of Big Brother and awaiting the call to board our plane. This really is a beautiful airport. If you haven't already, you should visit sometime! Next stop: Toronto!
That is the name of the episode of The Good Wife when Will Gardner is killed. I know because I've seen it a trillion times. The date was March 23rd, 2014 and at the end of it, I was devastated. I was thinking about when that episode aired and how …
An evening around the neighbourhood
These are about to be the longest three days of the year
I certainly didn't wake up thinking this is how I'd spend today
