So you've decided that you want to make a New Year's Resolution or two. What is a New Year's Resolution? A New Year's Resolution can be defined as a commitment made by an individual or group to a project or habit; which often involves changes in lifestyle to implement. A recent survey conducted by the Opinion Research Corporation for Whole Foods Market found that more than 75% of Americans would prefer to adopt long-term life-style changes as opposed to traditional resolutions. Building on my previous post on New Year's Resolution categories, I thought that I would describe how to create realistic New Year's Resolutions.
Why is it that most New Year's Resolutions fail? There are a variety of reasons why resolutions/goals fail but many can be attributed to the creation of the resolution itself. Many of the resolutions that people have made aren't SMART. So before going into how to create realistic New Year's Resolutions, I thought that I should elaborate a little further on SMART. SMART is an acronym used to create better achievable goals. Your goal(s)/resolution(s) should fit all of the criteria below:
S – specific/stretching (challenging), well defined, and clear
M – measurable/meaningful/motivating. How can you determine if you have reached it and progress that you have made towards your stated goal?
A – achievable/attainable/actionable
R – realistic/reasonable/results oriented
T – timely/tangible/trackable
Creating Your Realistic New Year's Resolutions
Now let's get started…
• Think about and write down anything that you'd like to change about your life. You can start a list and think about it over the course of a few days to capture other ideas.
• Review your list and remove anything resolutions that are terribly unrealistic. If one of your resolutions isn't very realistic, you can still keep it but you must remember how unlikely it is that you won't achieve it and how demotivating such a resolution might be to achieving your other resolutions. You don't want to build in failure and quit all your resolutions, because you didn't win the Nobel Peace Prize.
• Look for incompatible resolutions. It might not be the best idea to lose weight and quit smoking at the same time. People often gain weight when they quit smoking, so you're more likely to succeed if you choose one and then you can choose the other at a later time when you don't have conflicting resolutions.
• Review your list and remove or modify any resolutions that aren't SMART. Vague resolutions should be more defined. I want to lose weight could become I want to lose 10 pounds by June. Breakdown large resolutions into smaller achievable goals.
• Create alternatives to the behavior or habit that you would like to change. If you smoke to relax, you might try to find something else that you can do to help you relax as an alternative.
• Go for lifestyle changes whenever possible. Often a behavior that you want to change or get rid of is the byproduct of something else. Some people go shopping when they're depressed while others turn to alcohol or eating. If you understand why you do something, you have a better chance of stopping it at the source. While a crash diet might help you lose weight fast, your loss isn't likely to be permanent if you immediately go back to your old eating habits. That is why some many people on "diets" gain back their loss and then some. If you resolve to change your unhealthy eating habits instead of purely the quick weight loss you're more likely to keep the weight off long-term.
• As part of SMART, you'll want to create resolutions that motivate you. Don't create resolutions for someone else, unless that is the motivation that you need to succeed at your resolution. Most people don't have long-term motivation in impressing others. You'll need a resolution that you want because you're the person that is going to have to do it and live with the consequences.
• Define your resolution differently. If you have tried a particular resolution without success more than once, you might need to come up with a different approach. Many people are turned off by the terms "diet" and "budget". Look for more empowering words to substitute in your resolutions or change the meaning of the work or resolution. If diet means a highly restrictive set of rules applied to your daily food intake that leaves your feeling hungry and unsatisfied, how likely are you to be motivated to keep your resolution?
• Limit the number and types or resolutions that you make. Build success into your resolutions. You can create short-term, intermediate, and long-term resolutions, so that success in the shorter term ones can motivate you to achieve the longer term ones. If you have too many resolutions, you can be unfocused and fail to achieve few, if any, of them.
• Join a supportive group or network. A lot of people can lose weight because of the support and encouragement that they find in attending Weight Watchers meetings. In addition to local support groups there are a variety of groups that you can join online. 43Things is type of social networking site where a site where people create a list of their goals and give advice and support to each other.
• Tell your family, friends, and co-workers about your resolutions. This builds in accountability, making it harder to drop your resolutions because of the shame factor. You'll want to be careful about this one because there are a lot of negative people that want to drag you down with them.
• Be flexible and patient. Life happens and something might happen that makes it hard (if not impossible) to complete your resolution(s), but don't give up so easily. If you find yourself sliding in your resolution, you might need to review it, modify it, and start again with renewed motivation. In losing weight, many people get off to a good start and then if they reach a plateau, they become demotivated and quit.
• You can create a New Year's Resolution any day of the year, not just at New Year's Day. If you can have Christmas in July, why not a New Year's Resolution in March, August, or October?
Good luck with your New Year's resolutions. Remember to keep them SMART!

$25k budget increase issued to cheerleading program
February 19, 2013
Cheer squad granted funding for future national competitions
The cheerleaders should not just get recognition for being on the sidelines, because our cheerleaders have been winning their own "playoffs" for the past 10 years. The competition team ranked sixth at the University Cheerleaders Association competition in January at Disney World in Orlando, Fla.
"We have competed for the last ten years and were in the top 10 of the nation in our division," said Sue Witherspoon, sponsor.
Witherspoon has been at Midwestern for 11 years and has been the cheerleader and mascot sponsor for nine years. She is also the administrative assistant for the Office of Student Development.
The cheerleaders commit to their classes, charity work and of course, cheering. They practice regularly throughout the year.
"They work hard all year progressing in their skills, practicing three to four times a week," Witherspoon said. "Plus in the meantime supporting all athletic teams".
To reward them for all their hard work, it seems fit for the team to compete nationally, she said.
Recently, to make the competition feasible, the Board of Regents increased the cheer budget to $25,509. Not only will this money cover the team's participation in nationals, but it also makes it possible for the cheerleaders to attend the football team's playoffs.
The squad needed the budget increase because there was no guarantee that they would get to compete in nationals, or how far the football team will go in the playoffs.
"So when we request funding for national competition, and when they send us to football playoffs, we do not have the funding in our account," Witherspoon said.
The competition team competes at the UCA yearly.
Katie Clark and Kelby Dought are both members of the competition team and enjoy competing at UCA.
"UCA is a lot more personal," Clark explained. "The competition begins with a routine, and then halfway through the performance, the squad does a minute long cheer to get the crowd involved. Our goal is to make the crowd yell with us because they can't help it," the special education major said.
Performing at these competitions benefits MSU because it gets the school's name out there nationally, Witherspoon said. "Not only does it help our university, but it helps the cheer program during recruiting."
Dought can't imagine life without cheerleading. The sports and leisure studies major enjoys the friendship and trust she shares with the other squad members through cheering.
MSU's cheerleaders have come a long way since Witherspoon took over the team.
According to "Mama Sue," as the cheerleaders call her, she only started out with nine or 10 cheerleaders, and by her first tryout she had 30.
"We didn't even have enough uniforms, so for the first couple of games we had to wear three different uniforms until our new ones came in," Witherspoon said.
As of now, MSU has two cheerleading squads, the Coed team, which consists of 21 members, and the All Girl team which has 10.
The Coed team cheers at all football and basketball games, whereas the All Girl team cheers at volleyball and soccer games as well.
"This year was the first time for the All Girl squad," Witherspoon said. "Having another squad gives more students the opportunity to get involved on this campus."

Make no mistake about it – automobile accidents, even minor ones, are traumatic events. Immediately following an accident, you will be nervous, scared, confused, and upset, along with a whole host of other emotions. You probably will not be thinking clearly as you quickly try to cope with the situation.
If you have been in a car accident and want to talk with experienced Los Angeles car accident attorneys, call the law office of Barry Edzant today at 661-222-9929.
But what YOU do at the scene of the accident can often be instrumental toward a fair and just resolution of your case. Assuming you are not seriously injured and do not require immediate medical attention, you should try to achieve the following after an accident:
- Stay calm and collected.
- Ascertain if anyone involved in the accident is injured. If so, call 911 immediately. Be sure you know the closest streets where the accident took place.
- If no one is seriously injured, calling law enforcement is still a good idea. Many municipalities will not dispatch law enforcement unless there is a serious injury, or a crime is involved such as drunk driving.
- Gather information:
- Name, address, phone numbers of all parties and passengers.
- Driver's license number, class.
- Registration. (Write down owner's name which may be different than the driver.)
- Year, make, model, license, company signs or advertisements on the vehicles.
- Insurance. Write down insurance company, policy number, agent name and phone number, dates in effect.
- Eye Witnesses – Names, addresses, and telephone numbers.
- Name of streets.
- The date and time of day.
- Take Pictures. Photograph all vehicles and objects involved, the streets, debris, and if possible, the parties.
- Note unrelated damage to the other vehicles (damage NOT caused by the accident.)
- Note possible obstructions to the other vehicles such as window tinting, large boxes in the bed of a pick-up, broken mirrors, etc.
- Never get angry. Getting angry at another party will not benefit anyone and could lead to an unnecessary confrontation. If the other party shows aggression toward you, walk away and call 911.
- Never fake an injury. Insurance fraud is a crime.
- Never argue with law enforcement about who is at fault. The more you argue, the more likely he/she will find you at fault.
- Never leave the scene of an accident without exchanging full information.
Statistically, one of these days you will be involved in an automobile accident. Following these simple rules can help reduce your anxieties and concerns.

Brazilian authorities on Thursday charged Ryan Lochte with filing a false robbery report after the U.S. swimmer admitted he "over-exaggerated" his story about being robbed at gunpoint during the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.
Lochte, who flew home before authorities could question him about the incident, would be informed in the U.S. so he could decide whether to introduce a defense in Brazil, according to the Associated Press. The news agency cited a police statement, which said the indictment will be sent to the International Olympic Committee's ethics commission.
Lochte, a 12-time Olympic medalist had initially claimed he and teammates Gunnar Bentz, Jack Conger and Jimmy Feigen were pulled over and then robbed at gunpoint by people posing as police after a night of partying. Brazilian police later said the swimmers lied about being robbery victims after they vandalized a gas station.
Filing a crime report carries a maximum penalty of 18 months in prison, according to the AP, which added that the athlete could be tried in absentia if he didn't go back to Brazil to face the charge. While Brazil has a long extradition treaty with the U.S., it doesn't mean U.S. officials will force Lochte to return to Brazil, the AP reports.

Spectra Laser Tattoo Removal
How does Spectra tattoo removal work?
The Spectra system is an advanced laser device that can be adjusted for a variety of uses. When used for removing tattoos, it specifically targets embedded ink, causing the pigment to break down. After treatment, the degraded ink is safely metabolized by your body. The number of laser treatments needed will depend on the size of the tattoo, and the colors of ink used.
What to expect
The procedure is generally comfortable, though some patients describe a mild stinging sensation, similar to the snapping of a rubber band. Let us know if you are concerned about discomfort, and we will apply a numbing cream prior to treatment. The entire procedure only takes around 10 to 30 minutes, depending on the size of the tattoo, and there is no downtime.
Following treatment, you may notice redness, inflammation, or a whitish cast to the skin. These are normal side effects and should fade quickly. Results develop gradually over several weeks as the pigment is dispersed. The tattoo will continue fading with each additional session.
Benefits of Spectra tattoo removal
- Noninvasive, nonsurgical procedure
- No downtime and minimal side effects
- Any color or size of tattoo is treatable
- Impressive results, with the tattoo disappearing or significantly fading after a series of laser sessions
Is Spectra right for you?
If you are suffering from "tattoo regret," you are most likely an excellent candidate. Spectra is a safe and gentle treatment, appropriate for all skin types.
What will my skin look like after treatment?
Right after your treatment, your skin will have a white discoloration, and the area around the tattoo may become reddish and appear swollen. This is normal and will disappear slowly over time. Results take about 5 weeks after each treatment. Immediately after treatment, antibacterial ointment and gauze will be applied to the treated area to minimize infection.
Are there any side effects?
Occasionally, a whitening of the skin may occur. However, normal skin tone should return within 6 -12 months following your last treatment session. Since the ink used in tattooing can vary from tattoo to tattoo, some patients have only partial clearing even after several sessions.
What is treatment like?
Some patients say they feel a slight sting, like the snap of a rubber band on the skin. Many treatments do not require anesthetics. However, some patients feel more comfortable with a local numbing agent, such as a topical anesthetic.
How many treatments will I need?
The number of treatments required for optimal results depends on the size, location, depth and color of the tattoo. Treatment should be performed 4 - 8 weeks apart in order to allow the body to remove the maximum amount of tattoo pigment after each treatment.
Each session usually takes 10 - 30 minutes. You will continue to see lightening of your tattoo after each treatment as your body disposes of more pigment. Most patients will see improvement in their tattoos and results can be quite dramatic.

I had something new to try in my green monster this morning, a packet of Vega Smoothie Infusion.
I blended it up with kale and a banana. I think it was good, it definitely added a nice fruity flavour to the smoothie that could not be attributed to the banana, but the smoothie had a really strong bitter kale aftertaste that doesn't usually happen it me, and I wasn't really enjoying by the end. I didn't add any more kale than usual so I wasn't expecting that. Maybe the greens powder in the mix just pushed it over the top. If I buy it again I'll definitely tone down on the added greenery, then it'll probably be super tasty. The monster was a darker shade of green than usual…
It was a short day at work so all I brought with me was cherries and cukes and tea in anticipation of a late lunch at home. I was also factoring in the room I would need in my bag to lug home my hard hat and safety acessories. I did also thoroughly enjoy two Lindt truffles from the giant box someone left in the kitchen for their birthday, hazelnut and dark chocolate, yum!
When I got home I wasn't hungry yet so I had two medjools, then went on a shopping trip.
In chinatown I came across this. And had no idea what it was, so I bought it, of course. I do love an adventure 🙂
I was thinking it might be some sort of flower bud.
But when I took a closer look at it, it sort of reminded me of corn. Really fat, red corn. So I tried peeling back the leaves.
Nope, not corn. Then I was daring, and cut it in half. I started to revert back to my original hunch that it was a flower bud of some sort.
So I entered a search into google, "asian edible flower bud red large", and the internet's magical powers let me figure out that I had bought a banana flower. It seems that it's used a lot in the Thailand-Sri Lanka corner of the globe. It was really neat once I started to pull it apart properly. Under each leaf is a little row of flowers that eventually grow into bananas! And you'll notice that once a leaf is broken, the sap oxidizes and turns black really quickly.
Under that leaf…
Eventually I decided to pull out all the little flowers, then finely chop the lighter coloured leaves. I soaked them both in lemon juice and water for a while, then sauteed them in sesame oil and sweet chili sauce.
It was alright. Nothing special, not bad, not not particularly good either, along the lines of bamboo shoots or the tougher bits of artichokes. But now I know what it is. And it was a pain taking the stamens out of all the flowers, and the leaves tasted better anyways, so I'll just discard the flowers if there is a next time.
In the process of identifying this weird new food I was getting hungry, so I finished off the head of boston lettuce drizzled with light caesar dressing.
And I also just had a pita with a bit of peanut butter. But this post doesn't need anymore pictures, does it? Now off to bed with me so I can get up super early for an International Hiking Day adventure! And so I'll be tired enough to nap in the evening in order to work tomorrow night.
PS. (The other) Exciting grocery find of the week, I knew exactly what it was, too bad I couldn't find it a couple weeks ago, Kabocha!

How much do we actually know about one of Mallorca's most ancient cultures?
If you are either a Jewish visitor to Mallorca or your ancestors belonged to that millenary culture, a visit to the city of Palma is something you cannot miss.
The Jews stablished in the Balearic Islands for the first time in the 5th century A. D. and we are still being home for the descendants of what has become one of the most ancient ethnic groups in our history. However, most people do not know so much about them as one could think.
Join me on this tour and I will unveil, one by one, all the fascinating mysteries about a culture without the presence of which we could not understand Palma's history.
Do we know exactly where they lived? Do we know how many of them there were? Where did they come from? Do we actually know which their main jobs were? What relation did they have with the Kings of Mallorca? And with the Kings of Aragon? When did exactly all the persecutions begin? Why was the Jewish Quarter created? And, who created it?
We will find out together the answers to all of these questions and even more!
I will take you to the, once, three Jewish neighborhoods that existed in the City of Mallorca during the Late Middle Ages. We will explore its narrow streets looking for clues that let us visualize the evolution of this urban space in the 14th century's Palma. As we stroll this quiet maze of alleys, I will give you accurate information about all of the economic, social and political problems the Jewish community of this city faced for 200 years as well as its relation with the island's institutions, specially the Crown of Mallorca.

Victims from Sunday night's mass shooting in Las Vegas have received an unprecedented outpouring of support, receiving more than $8.3 million in donations.
Clark County officials set up a GoFundMe campaign on Monday with the goal of raising some $800,000, but within 24 hours donataions totaled more than 16 times the original goal.
"I'm overwhelmed by the outpouring of support from the Las Vegas community & beyond," Clark County Commission Chair Steve Sisolak wrote in a tweet Monday afternoon, adding "every penny will be put to use."
By early Wednesday morning, nearly 64,000 individuals, businesses and corporations donated to the campaign, beginning with Sisolak's pledge of $10,000. So far, MGM Resorts provided an "amazing" donation of $3 million, an anonymous donor pledged another $500,000, The Cosmopolitan resort and its CEO Bill McBeath donated $250,000 donation, and GoFundMe pledged to give $150,000 to the fund for the victims.
Outside the campaign, Vegas entertainer Wayne Newton and his wife, Kathleen, donated $100,000 and the NFL Foundation, as well as the Raiders, gave "generous donations" to the fund.
"Your support will be long remembered," Sisolak tweeted.
But assistance to those affected by the massacre has come in more than just monetary form. Vegas-based airline Allegiant Air is offering flights in or out of the city for those or family members of those affected by the shooting.
"On this tragic day we are heartbroken but gratified to see the world rally around our community with so much support and love," the company wrote on a Facebook post announcing their assistance.
According to reports from local media, the airline's maintenance staff at McCarran International Airport provided a safe overnight shelter for more than two dozen people who ran from the site of the concert as gunfire erupted. Airline staff provided them with clean clothes and helped charge their phones and contact loved ones.
Likewise, officials asked for blood donations after the shooting, and the response was "overwhelming." In fact, Las Vegas Assistant Sheriff Todd Fasulo said in a press conference Monday night no more donations were needed at this time.
"They cannot take any more people right now," Fasulo said of the blood donation centers. "They have enough supply to last them for the foreseeable future."
Furthermore, Fasulo said the police department does not have the resources to deliver or distribute the amount of food that has been donated to the community, and asked that bottled water be donated to the Red Cross. Fasulo also encouraged those who wish to help to consider donating to the fund started by Sisolak.

Gerber Scout Reservation
The camp first opened in 1951 and is currently owned and operated by the Michigan Crossroads Council Outdoor Adventure. The approximately 800-acre property containing Big Britton Lake, Little Britton Lake, and Mayo Lake was donated in part by the Gerber Products Company in 1951.
The Gerber Scout Reservation is divided into three camps, one for Boy Scouts, one for Cub Scouts, and a new camp for Venturing crews. In recent years, Gerber Scout Reservation attendance has swelled from 900 in 1997 to over 2,500 in 2012. Much of this increase can be attributed to the 1998 initiation of the Cub Scout and Webelos Adventureland, a section of the camp dedicated to Cub Scouts. Gerber currently has the capacity to accommodate 425 Boy Scouts, 200 Cub Scouts each week or each session. Activities offered at the camp include the Waterfront, Honor Ground, Climbing Tower/COPE, Scoutcraft, Handicraft, Environmental Resource Center, Archery, and Shooting Sports.
In 2008, a Technology Center was added to the camp, offering a new-age spin on the traditional summer camping experience. The new dining hall, named the Centennial Dining Lodge, was completed in time for the 2010 summer camp season. Centennial Dining Lodge boasts state of the art facilities, a capacity of over 700, and a safe place to take shelter.

The volunteers and staff of the Michigan Crossroads Council have put the following policies in place to provide a safe camping experience to all campers. These are in accordance with Federal and State Laws as well the Policies of the Boy Scouts of America. Remember, our youth and our camps are in your care.
To prevent misunderstandings, you and every other group using the facilities of the Michigan Crossroads Council are required to read and commit to these policies.
- No alcoholic beverage of any kind may be possessed or consumed
- No illegal drugs including marijuana
- Firearms, archery equipment, paint ball guns, and etc. are not permitted
- 10 MPH speed limit, All passengers must be in a seat with a seatbelt
- No riding on the outside of vehicles or in the beds of pick up trucks
- Parking in designated areas only, not along roads or next to cabins
- Campers must be in their sites and quiet between 11:00 pm and 7:00 am
- No vandalism to any camp property, building, wildlife or trees
- No unauthorized swimming or boating activities are allowed
- To prohibit child abuse; no initiations, hazing, or harassment will be tolerated
- Follow the Camp Code of Conduct.
I understand as unit leader that it is my responsibility to review these policies and the Camp Code of Conduct with every group member on or before arrival at camp.
Failure to follow these policies, including being found in off limit areas or engaging in prohibited activities will result in the immediate removal of any member of the group or the entire group. ILLEGAL activities will be reported to the proper Law Enforcement agency.
We understand we will be charged for any loss or damage caused by group members. We agree to pay any and all such charges, which will include labor and materials.
Barriers to Abuse
- Two-deep leadership on all outings required. Two registered adult leaders, or one registered leader and a parent of a participating Scout or other adult, one of whom must be 21 years of age or older, are required for all trips and outings. There are a few instances, such as patrol activities, when the presence of adult leaders is not required and adult leadership may be limited to training and guidance of the patrol leadership. With the proper training, guidance, and approval by the troop leaders, the patrol can conduct day hikes and service projects. Appropriate adult leadership must be present for all overnight Scouting activities; coed overnight activities—even those including parent and child—require male and female adult leaders, both of whom must be 21 years of age or older, and one of whom must be a registered member of the BSA. The chartered organization is responsible for ensuring that sufficient leadership is provided for all activities.
- One-on-one contact between adults and Scouts prohibited. One-on-one contact between adults and youth members is not permitted. In situations that require personal conferences, such as a Scoutmaster's conference, the meeting is to be conducted in view of other adults and youths.
- Separate accommodations for adults and Scouts required. When camping, no youth is permitted to sleep in the tent of an adult other than his or her own parent or guardian. Councils are strongly encouraged to have separate shower and latrine facilities for females. When separate facilities are not available, separate times for male and female use should be scheduled and posted for showers. Likewise, youth and adults must shower at different times.
- Privacy of youth respected. Adult leaders must respect the privacy of youth members in situations such as changing clothes and taking showers at camp, and intrude only to the extent that health and safety require. Adults must protect their own privacy in similar situations.
- Inappropriate use of cameras, imaging, or digital devices prohibited.
While most campers and leaders use cameras and other imaging devices responsibly, it has become very easy to invade the privacy of individuals.
It is inappropriate to use any device capable of recording or transmitting visual images in shower houses, restrooms, or other areas where privacy is expected by participants.
- No secret organizations. The Boy Scouts of America does not recognize any secret organizations as part of its program. All aspects of the Scouting program are open to observation by parents and leaders.
- No hazing. Physical hazing and initiations are prohibited and may not be included as part of any Scouting activity.
- No bullying. Verbal, physical, and cyber bullying are prohibited in Scouting.
- Youth leadership monitored by adult leaders. Adult leaders must monitor and guide the leadership techniques used by youth leaders and ensure that BSA policies are followed.
- Discipline must be constructive. Discipline used in Scouting should be constructive and reflect Scouting's values. Corporal punishment is never permitted.
- Appropriate attire for all activities. Proper clothing for activities is required. For example, skinny-dipping or revealing bathing suits are not appropriate in Scouting.
- Members are responsible for acting in accordance with the Scout Oath and Scout Law. All members of the Boy Scouts of America are expected to conduct themselves in accordance with the principles set forth in the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Physical violence, theft, verbal insults, drugs, and alcohol have no place in the Scouting program and may result in the revocation of a Scout's membership.
One Unit Leader must check in with the Camp Director or Campmaster at the camp office.
The Camp Director or Campmaster is expecting a unit roster at time of check in. Please download and fill out this >> ROSTER << and bring a copy with you for check in.
At the time of check in, you will review the camp policies and make any final arrangements for program activities. You will also select a check out time so the Ranger or Campmaster can review the facility prior to your departure on Sunday.
Buildings/campsites must be inspected and signed off by the ranger before your departure. It is appreciated that you leave the property in similar or better condition than when you arrived.
Program Payment & Refund Policy of the Michigan Crossroads Council
The Michigan Crossroads Council provides Council programs, high adventure camps and other camping experiences to the Scouts and leaders in its service area. These opportunities require Council staff to send deposits to the sponsoring camp, acquire needed supplies and produce mailings to campers and others so the Council sponsored experiences are rewarding and convenient for the Scouts and leaders in our Council.
Fees are usually paid in advance of the event and to ensure the Council can provide the best service to the Scouts the following refund policies will apply. Participants are not considered registered for any event/activity until payment in full has been received.
Weekend Camping – Facility Reservation Fees
Facility reservation fees are final. Refunds may be granted only if a cancellation is brought to a Council employee's attention. Individuals/Groups that cancel their reservations 30 days or more prior to the arrival date will receive a refund of the total rental fee less a 15% administrative service charge. No refunds will be given for cancellations made less than 30 days prior to the arrival date. Any/all refund requests must be made within 30 days of the reservation date.
Event Registration Fees
Event fees are final except in a limited number of circumstances (see listing below) where a refund may be granted. Refunds may be given only if the following circumstances are brought to a Council employee's attention. Individuals/Groups that cancel their event registration 30 days or more prior to the event date will receive a refund of the total registration fee less a 15% administrative service charge. No refunds will be given for cancellations made less than 30 days prior to the event date. Any/all refund requests must be made within 30 days of the event date.
Cub Scout and Boy Scout Summer Resident Camp Registration Fees
For Cub Scout and Boy Scout Summer Resident Camp registrations the cancellation fee is based on 15% of the total event registration fee and not the amount of fees paid at the time of cancellation.
Alternately, Boy Scout Summer Camp fees may be transferred to another Scout or leader attending. No pro-rated fees will be given to Scouts wishing to attend a partial week at Boy Scout Summer Camp.
- The registered participant has an illness or physical ailment preventing participation in the event and has a signed statement from a medical doctor or healthcare practitioner. The written order must be provided to the Michigan Crossroads Council, 137 S. Marketplace Blvd., Lansing, MI 48917.
- In the event of the death of an immediate family member (parent, grandparent, brother, sister or anyone else living in the house with the participant). The Council will consider other deaths, which may affect the participant, on a case-by-case basis.
- Only an employee of the Michigan Crossroads Council may authorize a refund for a Council sponsored event.
- Any refund of monies for the event is then based on the total event registration fee at the time of cancellation minus the deposit and any money sent to another agency or company for the event. The remaining money is refundable as long as the participant meets the above requirements. Any money that has been sent to another agency or company is considered issued and not refundable.
- Any event that does not have a deposit, but has an event fee, will be assessed a 15% service charge before any refund is issued. All remaining money is refundable. Again, the participant must meet the above requirements.
- Processing these refunds for summer camp may not take place until after the camping season due to the review process. Once approved please allow 30 days for the refund to be processed. Any/all refund requests must be made within 30 days of the event date.
Deposits are not refundable. Any cancellation, once the deposit has been sent to the Council, will be forfeited. Deposits may, however, be transferable to another participant that takes the entire slot for that event.
Late Fees
The Michigan Crossroads Council and all approved event committees have the opportunity to set late fees or discounts for events. Late fees will be announced with the original posting for the event. Late fees paid to the Council are not refundable.
Waiting Lists
At times the Council maintains a waiting list. If the participant is not selected to attend the event, all waiting list money will be refunded at 100%, including deposit money.
Cancellation by the Council
If the Michigan Crossroads Council or National Boy Scouts of America or any agency that has contracted with the Council cancels an event, the Council will issue a full 100% refund (including any Deposit Money).
These policies only affect the Michigan Crossroads Council, Boy Scouts of America; its committees and districts. This policy is not transferable to charter partners or individual units (Packs, Troops, Teams, Crews and Posts) of the Council.
- A Scout cannot attend an event. Cost of event is $20. The refund would be $20 - $3 (15% service charge) = $17 refund if notification was made at least 30 days prior to event. No refunds made for notifications made less than 30 days prior to the event date, however, the Scouts' event fee may be transferred to another Scout.
- The Scout's grandmother dies and thus is unable to attend a Philmont Trip. Philmont price is $750. The refund would be $750 - $100 (deposit) - $400 (Philmont Fee) = $250 refund.
- Florida Sea Base cancels trip due to shark attacks. Total cost of the Trip $1,000. The refund would be $1,000 no matter what. The Council will take the liability for the plane tickets and any other expenses. All money, even deposits, are refunded.
Cleaning Procedure
All units / groups / visitors are responsible for leaving all equipment and facilities in a clean and orderly condition. Failure to do so may result in additional charges, which must be paid within 30 days of the use date. Your unit will be charged for damage to facilities.

"Most People look to a Deity or God in some way. This is understandable as to how Most UNaware People have been Herded like Cattle for Lifetimes, as This is a HUman Farming Planet. The 'idea' is that a God created Everything and Everything is God. Then there is the Original Sin 'idea' that has been very popular for eons to keep many people's attention to feeling guilty and worrying about going to a Religiously Described Hell. There is also the 'idea' that God is Jealous and does not like anyone worshiping anything, but Him. Oh, and God made sure His Name is on most of the Money. Over the lifetimes with what each of us has experienced up to This Very Moment Now, there are those with the Church, such as Pastors & Priests, who have gradually woken up to realize, that if God created Everything, then Everything is Gods Fault! That God created the original sin 'idea' and guilt, hell, jealousy, fear, and more, plus Everything that is Polluted & Poisoned on This Planet Earth. So, it is more than evident it is His Fault! I have heard and read about many 'Believers' speaking up about all the Adverse Effects they are experiencing from this life, and they want to know why God keeps doing this, and how they can Get Beyond Their God! Everything in Creation is Agreement, and as long as a person Agrees with whatever they Agree to, then this become Their Reality. The Birds do not Agree to any God, and they are fine, except for how God has Poisoned & Polluted This World so far, which Keeps Getting Worse! A very important Question has come up with many Religious People from various articles I have read, and that is, "What does God do with all the Prayers He gets?" This again is the 'idea' of the Mystery of God that has been written about. Why does God keep So Many Secrets from Those He Created? Anyhow...

I'll be honest … I'm not entirely sure what's behind my motivation to blog about my Yogic journey, why I want to share the rawness of it. Choosing to live "yogically" isn't easy, although it's somewhat of a simple decision. Incorporating yogic values into one's daily life seems, at face value, an honorable, basic and high-falutin' endeavor. However, at it's core, I'm sometimes thinking it could have masochistic leanings… Ok, so apparently I'm starting my blog at a particularly cynical moment…
Work is stretching all my yogini muscles. I'm overly stressed, overwhelmed and in general, I'm in a job with which I'm not overly enamored. The company is, as corporations go, a darn good one. I work with good people, but work doing something that now bores me and leaves me feeling seriously unfulfilled. And now, like many, due to layoffs and resignations, I'm also overworked and under-resourced, thus leading to my current state of succumbing to a constant state of stress-induced flight/fight waves of adrenaline. What's a Yogini to do? Start a blog, apparently.
I've been practicing/teaching yoga for a decent number of years, long enough to know that Yoga, as a practice, is something that comes and goes in waves. One minute you get it – it's fantastic and everything makes sense and breath, asana, and life's Prana flow together – it's GREAT! And then circumstances send that wave heading rapidly toward the rocks and the next thing you know, you're struggling to get in a breath at all as the waves push you violently toward shore. So. This is where I find myself. I'm caught in the undertow of life wondering just how the heck Yoga is going to carry me to safety. Can I trust that it's even up to the task? Or will I be reaching for old, tried-and-true-but-ultimately-unhealthy choices to carry me through? Can I even dredge up enough compassion for myself to make the distinction?
The Bhaghava Gita states (to paraphrase) that on the path of Yoga, no effort is lost, even a little practice saves one from great suffering. Although I've practiced, to varying degrees, for many years, and I like to think I bring much of Yoga into my daily life, there are still the mysteries of practice which elude me … I still suffer.
I want to explore Yoga and share my explorations via this blog. I want to share the complex and the simple discoveries. If a little Yoga can save one from great suffering, then it's time for me to truly begin delve in to it … or I surrender to a life of suffering. And I've practiced long enough, and seen/felt enough, to know that those sensations aren't permanent – I have at least that much faith. Besides, I can't think of any more excuses. I've been avoiding my Satya (truth) for too long. However, I will state that I am not making promises. I'm not making any grandiose statements about achieving Samadhi just because I've decided to focus. The only statement I'm making is that I'm going to take a breath and put forth some effort with as much compassion, love and kindness as I can muster – for others and myself. And isn't that, really, all any of us can do?

Former Marine, Travis Snyder, takes a deep breath while Bonnie Pulkowski, a nurse practitioner at the VA Community-based outpatient clinic (CBOC) in Menominee, checks his heart and lung function. Snyder stopped in to the CBOC on his journey to raise awareness of Veteran suicide prevention.
Former Marine, Travis Snyder, walked around Lake Michigan to raise awareness of Veteran suicide prevention. Snyder traveled from his hometown in Manistee, Mich., on a journey to ensure other Veterans know they are not alone in their struggles.
IRON MOUNTAIN, Mich. — Suicide Prevention Month is in full swing in the Veterans Administration (VA). All through September the VA is asking for help from the public to raise awareness and encourage everyone to get involved. One concerned veteran has heard the call and is taking on a journey of his own to get the word out.
Travis Snyder is a former Marine reservist who has been personally affected by suicide; to cope with his loss, and to raise awareness, he is putting one foot in front of the other; literally. He started his trek north toward the Mackinaw Bridge Sept. 3. His objective is to walk the entire way around Lake Michigan starting from his home in Manistee, Mich.
Snyder hails from Holland, Mich. In 2012, at 24-years old, he joined the Marine Corps Reserves, he was living in Manistee. He says he had some very supportive friends. "I was going through what I would call a depressive time in my life," he recalled. "I'm not sure what would have happened if I didn't have my Marine buddies at that time."
In 2017, after managing some local restaurants in town, he was deployed to Afghanistan as a basic infantryman. His unit spent seven months in the country. His personal experience with suicide is melded with the journey he is on now. "A fellow Marine that I roomed with took his own life back in April and another officer that I served with in Afghanistan also completed suicide in December," he said.
He says he realized something. "Suicide is not a light switch that you can turn on and off. That's why I want to do this and bring awareness so that people can get help," he explained, "I wanted to show the same support that I got when I was not in a good place."
Snyder is partnering with Mission 22, a non-profit organization founded in 2013 focused on preventing Veteran suicide. "Raising awareness not only shows them they are not alone," said Diane McCall, public relations director for the organization. "It also educates people so they know to keep an eye on their veteran, encourage them to get help, and be more understanding of what they are going through before it's too late.
Mission 22 has an Ambassador Volunteer Program for people to get involved as well. Ambassadors educate the public about veteran issues, help get veterans into Mission 22 treatment programs and create resources in their communities. "With help from amazing supporters like Travis, Mission 22 hopes to end veteran suicide by raising awareness and then providing free treatment programs," McCall said. For more information, people may go to Mission22.com.
Along his journey Snyder was asked if he was enrolled in VA services. "I was told to enroll as soon as I got out, but didn't think that I needed the services right away," he said. He was passing through the patient service area covered by the Iron Mountain VA Medical Center and they were ready to assist him with enrollment.
As Snyder traipsed through Menominee, he stopped at the VA Community-based Outreach Clinic there. He filled out the necessary paperwork and was enrolled into VA health care. The clinic was able to go through some basic medical, physical and mental health care items with him and he was back on the road. "It was nice to meet the people there and get a checkup. I even got my flu shot," he said.
"I wondered if I would be able to use the VA along the way in case of an emergency," he said. "I was happy to find out, now that I am enrolled, I could." He says he plans to use VA services when he returns to his home which is about 400 miles, and three weeks away.
Upon returning home he says he is going to get back on the road. "I'm going to drive around lake Michigan after I get back, to retrace my steps, get some pictures, and take some time to meet with the people that have helped me during my trip," he said. "I really appreciated everyone's hospitality."

Michael's approach to his wine making is, let the grapes speak for themselves. We do the work by hand. We pick our grapes by hand, crush, gently press and rack the wines. The wines clarify using gravity, time and natural cooling methods. He doesn't add any extra additives, preservatives, industrial yeasts or bacterias, colourants, thickeners, water, sugar, or substances for clarifying or finishing the wines. Our wines contain only 100% locally grown grapes.

It's sweater weather and how appropriately colored is this sweater for fall.
I love the neckline for it's classy look and cozy feel. It reminds me of something a "Jackie" would wear.
It's time to dress in layers and bring out your sexiest boots. I am overly obsessed with these Gianvito Rossi thigh highs. Love how it feels and suede is so soft. Mmmm. The back part stretches so it fits all shapes and sizes AND it does not ride down!!
This outfit is composed entirely out of current faves so u'll see them again!

Chapter 177: Delving Into Ice Extermination Cavern (1)
Ice Extermination Cavern was situated between two snowy mountains, creating a world of frost where few dared tread. And outside the entrance of Ice Extermination Cavern, there was a vast stretch of flat land completely covered in ice.
Since they didn't have any Floating Light Silk on them and they didn't know if they'd be able to get their hands on it, they decided to go after the Shadow Snaring Water first.
With Morning Glory Chime in the lead, their group soon arrived at Ice Extermination Cavern.
Likely due to the pure white snow blanketing the one-person-tall entrance, the party of four was almost unable to spot it when they flew by on their mounts.
As most of the monsters in this region gathered in the flatlands outside the entrance, Shen Jingbin and Morning Glory Chime remained seated on their mounts, while Pure Crane and Quiet And Steadfast drifted down to dispatch the monsters that were loitering about the entrance.
The monsters in this area were all pretty cute. The Snow Mountain Bears were as furry as polar bear cubs, while the Snow Demons were as pretty as fairies.
Once they had cleared out most of the monsters, Shen Jingbin and Morning Glory Chime descended.
The moment she hit the ground, Morning Glory Chime jogged over to where Pure Crane and Quiet And Steadfast were and said, "Brother Pure Crane, Brother Quiet And Steadfast, can you guys help me catch a Snow Mountain Bear? I really like them; they look so cute!"
She'd seen these absolutely adorable Snow Mountain Bears the previous time she was here, but the male players accompanying her were all too noob. Let alone helping her catch a Snow Mountain Bear, they couldn't even get her into the cavern without having to sneak into it. It was a far cry from how they now cleared out the monsters and just swaggered in.
Quiet And Steadfast wordlessly glanced at her before he sheathed his dagger and walked over to Shen Jingbin. Quiet And Steadfast's blatant ignoring caused Morning Glory Chime to reveal a look of embarrassment immediately, so Pure Crane stepped in once again to smooth things over. "A Snow Mountain Bears' level is too high; they're not suitable for you. Later I'll help you catch some Floofy Bears instead."
Youzhou was a high-level region, so the monsters around here naturally wouldn't be weak either. Though a Snow Mountain Bear wasn't anything to write home about for both Pure Crane and Quiet And Steadfast, it had shaved off a considerable chunk of Morning Glory Chime's health when it clawed at her. The Floofy Bear that Pure Crane had mentioned, on the other hand, was another bear-shaped monster found in Central Almond Bear Ridge. It looked a little fatter than a racoon, didn't deal much damage, and was easy to capture. Many male players liked catching them to gain favour with female players.
Morning Glory Chime's expression eased up a little once she heard Pure Crane say that.
After Quiet And Steadfast neared Shen Jingbin, he coughed and lowered his voice, "Do you like that bear? Want me to catch one for you?"
Shen Jingbin turned to look at the Snow Mountain Bears that were frolicking around in the distance and shook her head. "It's too troublesome. Mascot's enough for me."
She didn't like those dumb looking bears.
Snow Mountain Bear: Screw you! How can you call me dumb when I look so cute! You're just blind!
"Let's enter the cavern," Pure Crane gave Morning Glory Chime a pacifying nudge on the back and led her in. "I'll scout ahead. As an added measure, Morning Glory will follow behind me to point you guys in the right direction. Little Jing, you walk in the middle and Guildmaster Steady will bring up the rear. Any objections?"
Shen Jingbin and Quiet And Steadfast shook their heads at the same time. "No problem."
Morning Glory Chime replied cutely in turn, "I'll listen to whatever Brother Pure Cranes says."
After that, the four of them entered the cavern in succession based on the order Pure Crane had decided.
Around ten minutes later, another group of people appeared at the entrance of the Ice Extermination Cavern. The monsters outside the cavern entrance would respawn once every three minutes, and by the time these people showed up, the Snow Mountain Bears that were cleared by Quiet And Steadfast had all respawned. So, they'd had to repeat what Quiet And Steadfast's group had done and slowly cleared the entrance of monsters.
Shortly after entering the cave, a very narrow path presented itself to Quiet And Steadfast's group, with many ice spikes protruding from all over the walls of the cavern. After tripping twice, Morning Glory Chime started to throw a tantrum.
"Brother Pure Crane, it hurts, I can't move anymore."
Pure Crane, who was at the front of the group, turned and said, "Just hold on for a little bit more. It's too narrow here so I can't carry you on my back."
Morning Glory Chime rubbed her knees and revealed a miserable look on her face. "Brother Pure Crane, can you hold me as we walk then?" While she spoke, she reached out for Pure Crane.
"Girl didn't you manage on your previous trips?! Dare I ask how you managed in here last time?!" Shen Jingbin thought to herself as black lines covered her forehead.
Pure Crane eyed Morning Glory Chime's small, outstretched hand that reached towards him, and then glanced at the two expressionless people behind her. His eyes twitched a little before he turned back and held her fingertips. "Let's go."
Morning Glory Chime smiled sweetly and stubbornly pressed her hand into Pure Crane's palm. "Alright."
Shen Jingbin couldn't help but share a glance with Quiet And Steadfast.
Did you see that!? Girls these days are so scary!
Good thing you're not the least bit scary!
That's because I'm reserved!
Indeed, you've always been very reserved… when can you show me your unreserved side?
Eh, I feel like I'll turn into a terrifying person when I let loose.
Quiet And Steadfast gave her a profound look.
…Alright then. In that case, you better remain reserved.
Shen Jingbin: …

◎XITE這家總部位於荷蘭的公司於2008年成立,目前已經在歐洲、加拿大和中東推出。過去幾天和幾週來,這個全天無休的音樂影片串流應用程式已在Comcast X1 Infinity、Apple TV和Amazon Fire TV上悄然推出,在Roku上也即將可以使用,今年下半年計劃會在移動裝置和平板電腦上可使用。
A free app already popular on the international scene, XITE has officially been rolled out in the US, and may be the first streaming service solely dedicated to music videos.
Guest post by James Shotwell of Haulix
Finally, a streaming service solely focused on music videos has debuted in the United States.
The internationally popular music video streaming app XITE has made its official debut in the United States today, March 12. The free service, which is now available on a number of major platforms, arrives with a catalog including all three major labels — Universal Music Group, Sony Music Entertainment and Warner Music Group — as well as indie labels and distributors like Beggars, EMPIRE, PIAS and Armada.
Already available in Europe, Canada, and the Middle East, XITE is a Netherlands based company that launched in 2008. The 24/7 music video streaming app has been quietly rolling out on Comcast X1 Infinity, Apple TV and Amazon Fire TV over the past few days and weeks, with Roku availability coming soon and mobile and tablet availability scheduled for arrival the second half of the year. The official launch happens on the same day as the start of SXSW Music 2019 where the company will be participating in numerous events, including panel and mentor sessions.
XITE differentiates itself from other video streaming platforms by focusing solely on music videos and exclusive performances. The service allows users to favorite and skip videos; create new stations and playlists by genre, era or style of video; and adapts to users' preferences based on watching and liking history. There are also dozens of XITE curated playlists to enjoy as well, some of which are highlighted in a video released to celebrate the platform's launch in the United States.
"Music videos continue to dominate overall music streaming, and we see an enormous opportunity to bring a beautifully designed, pure-play music video service to the U.S.," said co-CEO/co-founder Cees Honig in a statement. "We're excited to give U.S. music fans a new way to enjoy music videos, the way we have for millions around the world."
XITE is currently free to use, but a premium service is planned for later in 2019. Details of the premium service and pricing have not been revealed.
U.S. GM Shelly Powell added, "XITE is all about giving fans the best possible way to experience music videos — on the biggest (or smallest) screen in the house — whether they're leaning back and enjoying a playlist created by our expert curators or making their own personalized channel."

Book: Untouchable (Elite Dons of Washington Book 2)
Author: Elizabeth SaFleur
Not all power in D.C. is wielded by politicians…
With fiery exchanges in the workplace, public relations princess, London Chantelle, intrigues and provokes the alpha male in wealthy attorney Carson Drake. He'd like to bend her over his knees—among other things. Outside the office, an unexpected meeting at a local BDSM club suggests she is the ideal candidate for a weekend of sensual submissive pleasure. Mistrustful yet fascinated, London agrees to his proposal of forty-eight hours with him. Finally, she can satisfy her unwanted, darker longings. Their passionate weekend stuns them both and London wants more of Carson Drake and his firm handling. But their assumptions about love threaten their budding relationship—even more than a blackmailing co-worker and London's long-buried secrets.

What a page turner. I couldn't put it down. This is the first book I have read by this author and I wasn't disappointed and it is the 2nd in the Elite Doms of Washington series and without having read the 1st book I went in blind only knowing what was in the blurb but that alone had pipped my interest. The reluctant submissive London has a series of issues underneath her lofty and stubborn demeanor and it takes Dishy lawyer Carson a master to break through. It isn't always plain sailing for the pair and she has a few triggers that shuts her down and has her running for the hills. The Master then becomes the student and has to learn from his mistakes as her safety is always paramount. As I turned each and every page I fell more in love with London and Carson. The story and the characters were well written. There are some pretty steamy scenes and some descriptive descriptions of the BDSM lifestyle and how they look after their people. I can't wait to read more of this series.
Writing erotic romance is the most fun I've ever had. (Well, except for the research.)
Many of my books are set in Washington, DC, where I lived and worked many years, running a public relations firm. In my PR career I've been fortunate to encounter or represent some of the city's powerful insiders. I write, tweet and post under my pseudonym, Elizabeth SaFleur, since my clients might be a little shocked at how their counselor spends her free time. Then again, perhaps they'd fear they provided inspiration. (I'll never tell.)
Today, I live in Virginia with my husband and furry child. Occasionally I'm separated from my laptop to indulge in dance classes and visit wineries and hiking trails with family and friends. If there were a house fire, I'd grab my dog, laptop and five-foot-long, regulation, Sally Rand ostrich feather fans — in that order. (Hubby knows the way out.)
I'm a member of the Romance Writers of America, Washington Romance Writers, and an ongoing student of fiction writing, as well as avid reader of general fiction and romance, especially the erotic kind.
