There is an old school in Clinton, Iowa that is being transformed - and transforming the children inside of it.
The Gateway Area Community Center, or GACC, was created in 2018 by Jorge Rodriguez with this mission statement:
"Where kids can be kids and young adults can prepare for the next chapter in their lives."
The father of seven uses hands-on lessons to help dozens of children every day take the right steps in life. There's Del Sol Boxing, Ebony Illusion Dance, music lessons, gaming nights, and more.
"The only thing I'm doing is providing a service that everybody knew we needed, but nobody was willing to take on the headache that came with it," Jorge explained.
That headache started with no heat. Jorge was able to find a company in Savanna, Illinois to do the job - but not before he met Ronnie Deevers, an artist who helped brighten up the walls of the GACC:
"My paint would freeze and I would drop the brush, because my fingers were so cold, but that's how I met Jorge," she described.
Ronnie donated her time and talent to Jorge's cause, then decided to nominate Jorge for the Jefferson Awards, a foundation that celebrates public service and the people in our communities who are changing lives.
"Just hearing his dreams of what he wanted here and his journey just to get to that point," she explained. "We're all grateful we have heat today!"
The main goal of the GACC is to make all kids who walk through the door feel like equals.
"There are no colors," said Ronnie. "We're people. We're not colors and that's a big thing with Jorge. Racism stops here. There is none. It's gone."
"We wanted to make sure we touched everybody's interests, but that we created an environment where it would be judgement-free," added Jorge.
That's why all services are free at the GACC. That way, there's no obstacles holding a child back from spending their time at the center and getting away from crime and drugs.
"Kids want attention and they don't care if it's negative attention or positive attention as long as they're getting attention and Jorge's focus is to have a place of positive attention," Ronnie explained.
"Once they're hooked on drugs, that's it," said Jorge. "It changes their lives forever. But that drug - what people fail to understand is - that that drug gave them purpose. It might have been a bad purpose, but it was a purpose so what we were able to create was a different kind of purpose for them."
It's a positive purpose and a way to play, move, and fight - even when it feels like the world is battling back.
"You give a kid a purpose, it changes their lives forever."
"Give For Good" is a slogan of the Jefferson Awards, a foundation that celebrates public service and the people in our communities who are changing lives, and Jorge, now a 2019 Jefferson Awards Nominee, is showing how one person can make a difference.
"We're glad we can be the voice for the sometimes unspoken," he concluded.

A time-honored alternative to universal preschool
I have a confession to make: I never went to preschool. Yes, it's true. While other kids stacked blocks or lay in squishy beanbags, I was in the kitchen picking rocks out of piles of dried black beans with my mom.
The worst part is my secret is no longer safe with me. Now, thanks to the claims of a campaign for universal preschool in California, I will have to admit to the world that while preschoolers were napping on plastic mats and drinking milk from Dixie cups, I was taking in "Sesame Street" and digging earthworms after a good rain with my brother. It's horrible, I know.
Proclaiming that all kids in the state could avoid a bad life if they had the chance to attend free preschool, the pro-preschool people, backed by actor Rob Reiner, are putting an initiative on June's ballot that would make preschool available to all kids whose parents want it.
Judging from research released in November by the Rand Corporation (rapidly publicized by the pro-preschool crowd), the days I spent at home trailing the clatter of my mom's Spanish were a recipe for my complete and absolute ruin. Using state demographic data and information gleaned from a tiny group of poor black kids in Chicago, researchers predicted that if more California children went to preschool, crime and high-school dropout rates in every major county would go down. That prediction was based on the fact that the Chicago kids who went to preschool did better in the world than those who didn't.
The truth behind my secret is that my parents never wanted me to go to preschool. They simply felt it would be better for my brother and I to spend the third and fourth years of our lives with my mom, speaking Spanish, fighting, reading -- all in the chaos of our home. My parents were both raised by mothers in Guatemala who worked awful jobs and were often away from home. So when, in California, my dad got a post-office job and my mom decided to open a home day-care business to help make ends meet, they were excited that we would get to stay home with her.
I'm not saying no one should go to preschool. I bet it's fun. Amazing, even. And I bet thousands of low-income kids who attend the federally funded Head Start program would get a lot out of it. But when missing out on preschool is equated with increased crime and delinquency, I am forced to go public with my secret. Surely we can all agree that there's a lot more that happens (or doesn't happen) between ages 4 and 18 that could lead someone to drop out of high school or to shoot heroin or to get pregnant than whether or not he or she went to preschool.
But you wouldn't know it from the way the Rand study was broadcast in English and Spanish language papers all across the state. Never mind that some public elementary and high schools have books and windows and others don't; or underpaid teachers; or the idiosyncratic nature of each and every individual home, poor or not, that can lead to the success or failure of an individual. The answer to the problems teens face, apparently, is preschool.
I know the pro-preschool people aren't monsters. But when preschool is talked about as something good for everyone in California, and that "everyone" increasingly happens to be poor, immigrant, Latino and speaks limited English, you have to wonder what fears lie behind the push for preschool. Is it really necessary for the state to step in when kids are 3 and 4 and whip them into English-speaking shape? Are Latino parents who decide that their kids will stay home with them or their relatives doing their kids a disservice?
There's something wrong with telling parents who are economically and socially "disadvantaged" that their kids may end up on coke and in juvenile hall if they don't go to preschool. Our family was a classically disadvantaged case: poor, Latino, immigrant, Spanish-speaking. But my siblings and I turned out all right. Without preschool, we somehow managed to go to good universities. We became teachers, journalists and anthropologists; some of us even have master's degrees. I'd credit good teachers and my parents, who consistently pushed and loved us. The kids I met in kindergarten who had gone to preschool were small and funny looking, like me. I may not have done what they did at 4, but I walked into kindergarten knowing that my brother was my best friend (a bond that was cemented after he threw up on me for the third time), and that I would make it in the world, Dixie cups or not.

- Abstract:
- At least since the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio there has been wide agree-ment that the hope for a sustainable society rests on the attainment of radi-cal changes in consumption patterns and lifestyles, especially in the rich countries of the World (Sitarz, 1994). Changes to a more sustainable life-style are not easily achieved, however. In a report issued by United Na-tions Secretary-General Kofi Annan in preparation for the Johannesburg Summit it was concluded that "Progress towards the goals established at Rio has been slower than anticipated and in some respects conditions are worse than they were ten years ago." It continues to be true that a funda-mental requirement for success in this endeavour is consumers' active support and willing participation (Norwegian Ministry of Environment, 1994). Information is an important tool in this connection. Not only for marshalling public support for the environmental cause, but for facilitating environmentally responsible behaviour in many specific ways. Research dealing with the diverse roles of information in the environmental field shows a need to distinguish between different forms and objectives of information, but also, it needs to be stressed, that information alone is usually not sufficient to change behaviour (Stern, 1999). My aim here is to present a broad-brush overview of some of the most important roles that information has been found to play as a tool for pro-moting environmentally responsible consumer behaviour. Because this publication is mainly directed at economists, I start with the importance of information for getting the full potential out of economic instruments. However, my main emphasis is on the importance of information for cre-ating and facilitating consumers' willing participation in solving envi-ronmental problems that are in some way related to their behaviour as consumers. Information may be even more important for furthering other important types of behaviour, such as voter behaviour or activist behav-iour, but these issues are outside the limits of this chapter

Transcendence by C.J. Omololu
About the book:
When a visit to the Tower of London triggers an overwhelmingly real vision of a beheading that occurred centuries before, Cole Ryan fears she is losing her mind. A mysterious boy, Griffon Hall, comes to her aid, but the intensity of their immediate connection seems to open the floodgate of memories even wider.
As their feelings grow, Griffon reveals their common bond as members of the Akhet—an elite group of people who can remember past lives and use their collected wisdom for the good of the world. But not all Akhet are altruistic, and a rogue is after Cole to avenge their shared past. Now in extreme danger, Cole must piece together clues from many lifetimes. What she finds could ruin her chance at a future with Griffon, but risking his love may be the only way to save them both.
Full of danger, romance, and intrigue, Transcendence breathes new life into a perpetually fascinating question: What would you do with another life to live?
My Review:
I had the opportunity to read this book as an e-ARC. There were a lot of things that I liked about Transcendence. I really liked the main characters Cole (Nicole) and Griffon; they weren't your typical boy and girl and neither was their relationship. There was enough mystery surrounding Griffon to keep things interesting and Cole was pretty down-to-earth for a cello prodigy. I loved how the book kept me wanting to read more! If a book can capture my interest right away, that is always a huge plus! I also enjoyed how things began to connect towards the end of the story. There are a couple of things to be aware of if you are a parent of a teenager reading this book. There is a scene where the main characters who are high school students, drink alcohol like it is no big deal. This book also contains profanity. Overall, this is a good read and held my interest all the way through. It is the first in a series and has an interesting idea about reincarnation. I will definitely be reading the next book! I give Transcendence three and a half stars out of five.
You can pick up the book on amazon here.

When we first heard Chrissy Teigen was coming out with a cookbook, we were pretty giddy. We've long been fans of the Sports Illustrated model's food blog, So Delushious and of course, her hysterical and hunger-inducing Instagram feed. And now, Cravings: Recipes For All the Food You Want to Eat is here at last. So, what makes this cookbook different from all the other celeb cookbooks? Well, this wasn't just a side project she threw her name on–her mission was to make this a 'real', credible cookbook with delicious recipes she loves and eats on the reg, and worked with recipe developer (and the book's co-author) Adeena Sussman and Top Chef Masters judge Francis Lam to perfect each and every one. From hubby John Legend's famous fried chicken wings with Cholula honey butter to her mom's Thai pork and rice porridge, it's certainly not lacking in variety or flavor. Not to mention, with her one-of-a-kind humor infused throughout (seriously, the photos don't disappoint) it's one of the first times we've laughed out loud while reading a cookbook.
So what can you expect in terms of the recipes? In Teigen's words: "If you're expecting a model to write a cookbook full of diet recipes for you to perfect your bikini bod, I think you'll be a little surprised here. These are recipes we love to indulge in with family and friends. Some more hearty than others, some even more hearty than the hearty ones. But every single recipe is something we love," she writes. "Look, I don't want to be one of those dead-inside laughing-with-a-salad chicks, and I don't want to seem like one of those annoying, 'I can eat anything I want anytime' chicks. It's just that I wanted to be honest in this book about the kinds of food I love, the kinds of food I crave. I just have to find ways to make those cravings work with my day job (e.g., sometimes with a well-timed "f*ck it")."
Here, we bring you an exclusive recipe excerpt from Cravings– a Thai dish of her mom's that (as you'll read below) Teigen is absolutely obsessed with.
Pounded Thai Papaya (or Green Bean) Salad
Total time: 20 minutes
This has ruined me for ALL. OTHER. PAPAYA SALADS. Mom can cook evvvvverything well, but man, she is a papaya salad ninja. Once requested, it's on the table in three minutes and never fails to be perfect. When trying out a new Thai restaurant, I always order two things first: tom yum soup and papaya salad. If their tom yum or papaya salad sucks, the chances of anything else being good are slim to none. It's a rule that's always held true for me.
Made at least five times a week in my household (did you know an Asian Mom lives with us? It's awesome), I live on this before shoots. We add WAY more chile, to the point where my face has a stroke and I can't blink one eye or symmetrically smile, but I finish the entire plate. Serve it with steamed rice and roasted chicken or pork rinds. Seriously. They cut the heat but even if they didn't, they're pork rinds and pork rinds are awesome.
(Oh, and by the way, unless you have a Thai Town lying around, green papaya can be tricky to find, but fear not—this is equally good with green beans or even shredded cucumber.)
1 lime, halved
1 large jalapeño pepper (pretty hot) or 3 fresh Thai chiles (really hot)
1 dried red Thai chile (optional)
2 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons palm, raw, or light brown sugar
10 cherry tomatoes, halved
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 pound green papaya or
1 pound green beans
3 tablespoons chopped unsalted roasted peanuts (optional)
Cooked sticky or jasmine rice, for serving
Large mortar and pestle (or you can fake it; see recipe)
Cut one-half of the lime into small wedges and place in a large mortar along with the fresh chiles (and dried chile, if using), garlic, and sugar. Crush with the pestle until the chiles are mashed and bruised but not totally pulverized and the sugar is dissolved. Add the tomatoes and pound a few times to bruise the tomatoes. (You can also accomplish this with a plain old bowl and a round-ended cocktail muddler. Or you can chop the garlic first and just mix and mash everything in a mixing bowl. Sorry, Mom.) Squeeze the juice from the remaining lime half (about 1 tablespoon) into the mortar and stir in the fish sauce.
If using green papaya, peel and seed it, then shred with a food processor or mandoline. If using green beans, trim them and cut into 2-inch lengths. You should have about 4 cups of papaya or beans.
Add the papaya or green beans to the mortar and mash and toss lightly. Divide the salad among bowls. If desired, top with the peanuts. Serve with rice.
The Thai Hotness
Thai bird chiles used to be super hard to find, but now you can buy them at Asian markets and even regular supermarkets. They are hot as hell. If you can't find them, use serrano chiles.

Days 212-215 Sunday-Wednesday November 18-21, 2007
Nadi, Fiji to Auckland, New Zealand
Because of our flight cancellation in Fiji, we arrived in Auckland much later than originally planned. While this wasn't really a problem for us, the one issue we faced was not having any accommodation booked for the night. We had felt that booking a room ahead of time wasn't important given that we were going to arrive in the early afternoon. Luckily, when we finally cleared immigration at around 10pm, the visitor's information desk was still open and they were able to call around for us. After trying several places, we finally found a small room in a downtown hostel with a bunkbed and an extra mattress thrown on the ground for Shawn Reece at the bargain basement price of $70NZ per night.
After getting to the hostel, we settled into our closet sized room and quickly went to bed. Immediately upon waking up on Monday morning, we showered and headed out into the city for a first look. Auckland pretty much looks like any big city in North America. One of the first things we noticed while walking around is the sheer number of Asian immigrants that call Auckland home. The signs of a diverse immigrant population are varied throughout the city, but show through mostly in the small businesses and restaurants scattered around downtown. Given the range of immigrants and culture and its designation as a port city, Auckland most closely reminds me of Vancouver, British Colombia.
Our first task of the day on Monday was to head over to the I-site visitor center located in the Skytower a couple of blocks away. We wanted to pick up some more information to better figure out our plan of attack for seeing the city. At the I-site, we talked with one of the clerks and also gathered more information on rental cars and campervans. While looking through the sea of brochures, we found an Auckland city pass that included admission to the Skytower, a ferry out to Rangitoto Island, ticket to a local aquarium and admission to the largest theme park in New Zealand, Rainbow's End. The pass basically provided these admissions at half price, so we decided to buy it. It also helped to shape our itinerary for the city and ensured that we would get to ride some roller coasters!
Just outside the I-site a shuttle picked us up to use our first activity from the pass, a visit to Kelly Tarlton's Underwater World, an aquarium on the other side of town. Kelly Tarlton's Underwater World is built into the side of a hill across from downtown and adjacent to the harbor. The ride from the Skytower took around fifteen minutes, dropping us near the entrance in the parking lot.
Upon entering we were delighted to see that this aquarium had a full penguin exhibit. In fact, the first exhibit we came to involved getting into a snow crawler for an up close look at the penguins. The snow crawler experience allowed us to get incredibly close and provided a unique experience for an aquarium. After the first ride, we couldn't wait to do it again for another glimpse of the flightless birds.
The rest of Kelly Tarlton's Underwater World consists of areas dedicated to stingrays and fish in general. Kelly Tarlton's was also the first place in the world to deploy an aquarium that is all around the visitor as they pass through on a moving walkway. While this idea has now been done many other places, the setup at Kelly Tarlton's is rather immersive and unique. While this aquarium doesn't compare in size to something like the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago, it does provide a few neat experiences and was good for a couple of hours of educational fun.
We doodled around the rest of Monday night and woke up on Tuesday, explored downtown for part of the morning and then boarded a ferry to Rangitoto Island which sits in Auckland's Harbor. Rangitoto Island is a non active volcano which has the distinction of being the newest in the heavily seismic area. From the time the ferry dropped us at the dock, we had about three hours to complete an ascent to the top, take in the magnificent views and get back to the dock to catch the last ferry of the day back to Auckland.
The hike from dock to summit was signposted at sixty minutes or so. Almost immediately after embarking, it became evident that this hike was going to be special. The further along we went on the path, more elaborate lave fields started to creep into the scenery and the hike got progressively more difficult. The first 75% of the way was a piece of cake, but that last twenty minutes or so was trying. We are old pros though and eventually made it to the crater before heading up to a viewing platform above it.
At the top, we ate our picnic lunch and enjoyed the three hundred and sixty degree view of Auckland's Harbor. From the summit, we could see downtown Auckland and all of the smaller islands that call the harbor home. This was our first taste of the vibrantly green scenery in New Zealand. Unfortunately due to our tight schedule we didn't have much time to loiter at the top and after lunch we began our descent back to the dock. Our timing proved to be just right and shortly after arriving at the bottom, the ferry came and whisked us back to the mainland.
Disembarking from the ferry, we decided that we hadn't experienced enough for the day, so we decided to head over to the Skytower, which was the third activity on our pass. Our ticket included admission and an elevator ride to the observation deck which sits about 650 feet above the city. The Skytower is the largest tower in the Southern Hemisphere standing at just over 1000 feet from base to tip of antenna. As we entered the elevators, one neat feature was immediately noticeable. All of the Skytower's elevators are equipped with glass floors, allowing guests to look down as the elevators ascend the 650 feet at a rather rapid pace. Shawn Reece and I enjoyed staring down as the people shrunk to the size of ants and before long the elevator dinged and we were at our destination.
The Skytower's observation deck isn't much different than others we have visited. One disappointment for me was that it doesn't have any outside element, something I have grown to like at other buildings. We spent around thirty minutes at the top, during which time we witnessed the sun start to go down over this beautiful city. With the sun, we also went down, back to our hostel to settle in for the night.
Wednesday morning we sprung out of bed ready to head over to the Rainbow's End amusement park. The bus ride from downtown to the park took around 45 minutes and when we arrived it wasn't very crowded. Like madmen we headed straight for the coasters, both of which are nothing special by anyone's standards. The first coaster is a mine train type than was actually pretty well themed and the second is the only double corkscrew coaster in New Zealand. (WOW!) While both of these left a lot to be desired, it was nice to be riding coasters again, so I won't complain. While the park is small, we also found fun in riding some of the other attractions including: go karts, a log flume, drop tower and a kiddy coaster among others. Since the lines were nonexistent most of the day, we whipped through the park in around four hours, riding several rides more than once.
Somewhere in between completing all of the fun activities mentioned above, we managed to figure out that renting a car was our best option budget wise. We found a car for $28NZ a night including insurance which is a great deal considering our rental period stretches into the peak season. A campervan was going to cost us over $100NZ a night so it just didn't make sense. Gas prices here are over $5USD a gallon so filling up the tank is going to be a bit painful.
From Auckland, we are going to head north to explore the top tip of New Zealand's North Island, an area they call Northland. It should take us a couple of days to get around Northland and during that time we hope to visit a couple of interesting areas including the 90 Mile Beach which isn't 90 miles at all! So far we are really enjoying New Zealand and are eager to get out of the city and into nature. Oh yeah and did I mention that they drive on the left side of the road here. That will be a fun adjustment!

B.C.'s Human Rights Tribunal has gagged both the province's legal profession regulator and a law student who claims the regulator's entry requirements are discriminatory.
Malcolm Brown filed a complaint against the Law Society of B.C. with the tribunal alleging its admissions process discriminates against those with mental health issues – a concern he asserts the society was told to address years ago.
"The Law Society of B.C. is the main culprit who has been stigmatizing mental health from the top down in the legal profession in B.C. for decades and has an absolutely toxic effect on the well being of law students and lawyers in B.C.," Brown said.
The 35-year-old Victoria man is in the final stages of his legal education with a desire to practice business or technology law. The self-described technology geek said he's worked in many business types and wants to combine his life experiences in a legal practice.
He's wrestled with alcoholism, spent months in a rehab centre and managed to get through most of law school with one brief relapse. He's been sober five years.
However, to finish his legal education, a final step is a practicum position with a law firm, a position known as articling.
But, he's hit a wall with the process used by the society charged with licencing B.C. lawyers and overseeing their practices.
And now both sides have been gagged as of Oct. 1 after the society complained about Brown sharing complaint documents with Glacier Media. He asserts he did not violate tribunal rules; however, he can't share anything moving forward.
Brown was approved for articles by the society but only after two firms offered and then withdrew jobs after he says he disclosed mental health issues and decade-old issues in the criminal justice system.
The issue, Brown said, is questions the society asks on the articling admission form under the Law Society Admission Program.
It's a year-long process before a new lawyer is called to the bar. It involves months with a law firm or other legal workplace, a 10-week training course and two qualification exams.
The questions ask about health issues, including mental health ones involving substance abuse, as well as past criminal justice system involvements. They're designed to assess a candidate's fitness and character to become a lawyer. It's all part of the society's mandate to regulate the profession in the public interest.
Brown, however, asserts the society was told to stop asking such questions eight years ago by the very same tribunal from which he now seeks redress.
And, he's quite open about his mental health issues and addiction treatment. As well, he's up front about an assault charge he says was expunged from his record. Another charge was dropped.
He asks why the law society isn't interested in the constitutional assumption of innocence.
Indeed, he said, those experiences with the system influenced his desire to become a lawyer.
"I know that things are not always as they appear, and the legal system doesn't always work the way it should," he said. "These are important things that wealthy, conservative-type people never understand."
Brown said he's spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on his education and has been suicidal.
Now, he's quit law school after articling positions were offered and then withdrawn after he disclosed past issues to prospective employers on the advice of a lawyer.
He says he called that lawyer, University of British Columbia Faculty of Law adjunct professor Henry Wood, at the suggestion of Tony Wilson, an adjunct professor at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby and Thompson Rivers University (TRU) Law School in Kamloops, who also sits on the law society's board.
Both Wood and Wilson are law school ethics professors.
"Tony put a big emphasis on the importance of full disclosure during the law society credentials process and went to great lengths to explain how we students needed to disclose any criminal charges or health issues we may have," Brown said. "He announced in class that if anyone thought they needed to answer these questions affirmatively, that they should talk to him personally after class."
Brown took Wilson's advice.
"Henry spent pretty much all his time telling me that it was absolutely crucial for me to tell law firms this information up front," Brown said.
So he did. And, he said, job offers were then withdrawn, one at the firm of Lindsay LLP, a partner in which is now-retired past law society president Jan Lindsay. The other was at the Victoria firm of Velletta & Company.
"It is inappropriate for me to publically comment on this at all," said Wilson, whose TRU biography says he chairs the society's committee studying the articling program.
"My dealings with any client are confidential," Wood said. "I have no comment."
Lindsay LLP did not respond to a request for comment.
Velletta & Company did not respond to a request for comment.
Brown provided Glacier Media both his complaint and the Sept. 12 society response filed with the tribunal by Vancouver lawyer Patricia Gallivan.
Glacier sought confirmation of the documents' veracity from the society, the tribunal and Gallivan.
Tribunal registrar Steven Adamson said third party privacy prevented disclosure of records. They are available 90 days prior to hearings, he said.
"According to the tribunal's rules, there is no access to information available in these circumstances," Adamson said.
Law society spokesperson Vinnie Yuen confirmed, "The law society has filed a response to the complaint of Mr. Brown, but it would be inappropriate to comment further as the matter is before the tribunal."
Gallivan's partner Paul Pulver, a lawyer at labour and employment specialist law firm Pulver Crawford Munroe LLP, took a slightly different tack from Adamson when asked to verify documents, citing tribunal rules saying public access to a complaint file is restricted unless released under a B.C. Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act request.
Glacier Media does have a request filed with the society. It has yet to receive a response.
Key to Brown's complaint, he asserts, is that the tribunal told the society in 2011 to stop asking for similar information on articling documents. Such orders have the same force as those from the BC Supreme Court.
There, Peter Mokua Gichuru complained about a law society articling question: "Have you ever been treated for schizophrenia, paranoia or a mood disorder described as a major affective illness, bipolar mood disorder or manic depressive illness?" Gichuru alleged the question was discriminatory and was interfering with his ability secure an articling position.
A tribunal case summary says Gichuru had a history of depression.
"The law society then asked a lot of intrusive and irrelevant questions about his mental health to see if he was 'fit' to become a lawyer," the summary said. "Gichuru was in a very vulnerable position with the law society. He was at the very start of his legal career. Decisions of the law society can have a significant effect on a lawyer. There was a power imbalance."
The tribunal found the society intruded on Gichuru's personal and medical autonomy with long-lasting discrimination. "Mr. Gichuru felt anxiety each time he had to have contact with the Law Society, both before and after he became a lawyer," the summary said.
As a result, the law society changed its question to be less intrusive.
No hearing dates for Brown's case have been set.

Tech giant Google recently released a piece of software aimed at human resources professionals and recruiters called Google Hire. The software is said to be designed for small to mid-sized business in the U.S. and seeks to provide mechanisms for recruitment specialists to communicate with job candidates, manage applications and schedule interviews, taking advantage of its integration with Google Cloud products to facilitate these activities. It even makes posting job announcements easier thanks to its ability to disseminate this information onto popular job search sites.
Google Hire hopes to provide recruiters with tools that help improve efficiency while also making the entire hiring process more transparent. But, even with these reported benefits, will recruiters use Google Hire? The answer is, it depends. Here's what you need to know.
G Suite Application Integration
One of the largest determinates regarding whether recruitment specialists will use Google Hire is whether they currently use other Google offerings today. This new HR system is designed to work seamlessly with certain products like Google Calendar, Gmail and Sheets.
If a recruiter works for an organization that favors Google's offerings, and they are in the market for a new hiring solution, then Google Hire should be on their list. However, if the company isn't using other Google products, they might not experience the same level of benefit by making a switch.
There Are a Lot of Options in the Market
Right now, there are numerous software vendors offering HR solutions including Microsoft, Workday, Lever and Greenhouse. While Google Hire may be a strong system, it isn't the only suitable option on the market today.
Whether a recruiter or business is going to consider Google Hire partially depends on their level of satisfaction with their current system and how the solution measures up to competitors in regards to functionality and price. As mentioned above, the present use of other Google products may also be a factor, as Office 365 users may be more inclined to consider the Dynamics 365 Talent solution that integrates more effectively with Microsoft products.
Additionally, transitioning from one system to Google Hire may be a cumbersome process, so people who aren't displeased with their current solution may forgo the hassle of moving their data and learning a new offering.
It's New
Google Hire hasn't been on the market very long, so some recruiters might not be aware of what the system has to offer. Additionally, it will take time to determine whether the software lives up to its promises.
Recruiters looking to simplify their lives and who already use G Suite for work may be inclined to take the plunge, even at this early stage. Others may hesitate, waiting for more reviews to become available.
If you are interested in finding a solution that makes hiring easier, the team at The Armada Group has the services you need to succeed. Contact us to see how our unique, customized offerings can help you find top talent more efficiently than ever before.

Beginning in January, fishermen in California, Oregon and Washington will try something new. They'll become owners of the fishery, much like shareholders in a company. But as Lauren Sommer reports, not everyone is happy about it.

Happy Friday everyone! So, we're coming to that time of the year when everyone is setting New Year's Resolutions, deciding their reading goals and getting ready for new reading challenges.
Which means it's time for another session of RYANN MAKES A BAD BOOKWORM CONFESSION!!
studio audience cheers I didn't reach my 2017 Goodreads goal. I was close, but close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades. And, given the year I've had, I'm definitely okay with that.
Over the summer, I tried to participate in a few reading challenges to try to help me meet my 2017 reading goal. And it made me realize, while I can definitely appreciate having a reading goal, I have some mixed feelings about reading challenges, and this sort of idea of competitive reading.

Michael Conforto is inching closer to returning to the Mets lineup.
The outfielder was eligible to return from the 7-day concussion IL on Friday and while he was not re-activated, he did have nothing but positive news to report from Citi Field before the Mets' game against the Tigers.
"Feel good. Feel normal. Feel happy that I'm back to doing full baseball activity," he said. "Obviously the road trip was tough and not being there was even tougher. But it's been really fun to be with these guys through the last series and starting a new series today. So I feel good, feel 100 percent and we're just kinda taking it day-by-day."
Conforto collided with second baseman Robinson Cano on a pop up against the Nationals on May 16 and was diagnosed with a concussion after the game. He said he has been symptom-free for the last five to six days but that there are still some hurdles he needs to clear before he can be back on the field.
"This is kinda my first day without restrictions so I'm going to be having conversations with [Head Athletic Trainer Brian Chicklo], with [GM] Brodie [Van Wagenen], with Mickey [Callaway]," he said. "I think MLB has to clear me first, and then over the next two days or so, we'll see. I mean, I feel good. It's kinda based on when I'm ready to get in the box, and I feel like my swing is where it's at.
"I feel like I can be back this weekend. We'll see. Maybe tomorrow, maybe Sunday."
The 26-year-old outfielder said he has had his "bell rung" playing high school football before but has never been diagnosed with a concussion or experienced anything quite like this.
"I remember everything leading up to [the collision]," he said. "I didn't realize at first that I had been knocked out. I thought I just hit him, I hit the ground and I was dizzy getting up. But afterwards I watched the video and there was probably 10 seconds in there that I didn't have."
Conforto said he went to bed that night with a headache but woke up the next morning feeling fine.
"I think I was definitely lucky to not have terrible symptoms," he added.

With guest speakers Alison Hitchen from the Centre for SME, and Elizabeth Pickstock from Propeller.
Public speaking sucks. Do you know anyone who says, "yeah, I love it! It gives me such a buzz?" You might know one or two who do and think they've got a natural talent, but chances are they had to learn to be so confident and poised. Talking to people effectively is a skill we can all learn to hone, if we're brave enough.
Alison and Liz are offering this active networking session in order to help you overcome performance anxiety by drawing on effective goal setting, imagery, self-talk, cognitive restricting and exposure therapy. Focusing on natural flowing conversation rather than sales pitches and feeling fake, this session encourages attendees to take a breath and work the room like a pro.
Alison Hitchen, Centre for SME Manager
Alison joined UCLan after a 10-year career within the TV Advertising/Local TV department at Virgin Media. Since joining UCLan Alison has remained focused on developing strong links with the private sector and supporting the region's customer management agenda as Manager of CallNorthWest until 2015 when she joined the Centre for SME Development.
Alison is passionate about all things customer experience and has a customer centric approach to everything she does. Adopting an outside-in approach, she walks the customer journey and believes that 'what is best for the customer is what is best for the organisation'. Alison also has a master's in Event Management which often comes in handy!

I'd heard of the Winchester Cocktail before, but was reminded by the Speakeasy Podcast from Heritage Food Network when they had Angus Winchester as a guest. I didn't know the story behind the Gin Zombie's name however, and it may not be what you expect.
The Winchester is a perfect name for a Zombie made with a spirit as British as Gin replacing the Rum of the original. The Winchester is of course the name of the famous pub that Simon Pegg and his friends hide out in during the British zombie movie, Shaun of the Dead.
Created by Brian Miller of New York's Death & Co, it was named for Angus Winchester, the Tanqueray Gin ambassador, and Brian had never heard of Shaun of the Dead. What an incredible coincidence! So, credits done, lets get on to the drink this World Gin Day.
The Winchester Cocktail
While the original Death & Co version used Haymen's Old Tom, Millers Westbourne Strength and Tanqueray Dry gins, I've switched these brands up a little for personal preference. The measures are the same if you want to make the original recipe.
- 1 oz (30ml) Jensen's Old Tom Gin
- 1 oz (30ml) Rock Rose Navy Strength Gin
- 1 oz (30ml) Eden Mill Original Gin
- ¾ oz (22.5ml) lime juice
- ¾ oz (22.5ml) grapefruit juice
- ¾ oz (22.5ml) Elderflower Liqueur
- ½ oz (15ml) grenadine
- ¼ oz (7.5ml) ginger syrup
- 1 healthy dash Angostura bitters
Like most Tiki style recipes, the drink calls for a large number of ingredients which is why many bars might part batch these. The gins, liqueur, syrups and bitters can safely be combined ahead of time and just the fresh juices added at the point of service.
I'm a huge fan of the Jensen's Old Tom Gin, as there is no sugar added to sweeten, all the flavour comes purely from the botanical load at the Bermondsey Distillery.
Likewise, Rock Rose's Navy gin is so smooth as to hide its strength, you'd be hard pressed to tell has an upped ABV from the taste, but it certainly packs a punch.
So, that's our drink of the day for World Gin Day 2018. Shaun of the Dead is always a great choice when you're stuck for something to watch too, so why not mix up a Winchester, and we'll wait for this all to blow over…

Believe it or not, I finally ended up writing about a thousand words yesterday. I'm surprised by this total because I wasn't certain I was ever going to get there, but I did. I wanted to go further but it was getting late and spending another hour at the computer was pretty much out of the question.
When we left off Kerry had just had a scan of the inside of her body, and a three-dimensional map of her totally unclothed outer body made, but now things are getting a little more–let's just say it's time for Doctor Gallagher to really get up close and personal…
(The following excerpts from The Foundation Chronicles, Book Three: C For Continuing, copyright 2016, 2017 by Cassidy Frazee)
She was back in her gown after that and they proceeded to a nearby bed—also behind the privacy screen—where the pelvic examination was going to take place. After slipping on a pair of socks so her feet wouldn't get cold in the stirrups, Kerry lay back on the bed and held on to Annie's hand while Coraline examined her genitalia before doing the pap smear.
It was only moments into the examination that Annie sensed the discomfort Kerry felt from being dilated. She held on to her hand tightly. "My love, look at me."
Kerry turned her head and offered her best smile. "I can always count on you to take my mind off the bad stuff, Sweetie."
"That's what soul mates do."
There was a slight clenching of Kerry's jaw before she slowly breathed a sigh. "So you've never had this done?"
Annie shook her head. "No. I won't need one until I'm at least sixteen." She offered a warm smile. "You've gotten here before me."
"I didn't know we were in a competition for this." Kerry suddenly looked up towards the ceiling and giggled.
Annie found this surprising. "What is it?"
Kerry glanced her way. "I just wondered what Mom would say if she knew I was getting a pap smear."
"I don't imagine she'd be as accepting of the event as I." Annie chuckled. "I imagine my mother would have a similar reaction as your mother, though likely not quite as extreme."
With all the worries she'd developed about her own family, Kerry hadn't considered how Annie's parents would react to her newest active Gift. "Guess we have to keep this secret for a while from them, too."
"That's up to you, Kerry." Coraline's voice rose up from somewhere near the foot of the bed. "When you're ready to come out and tell people you can do this, you will. Until then—" She looked up over the hem of Kerry's gown as she set the speculum on the tray to her left. "It's your secret to hold as long as you like."
Now that her Gift is active, Kerry is being told that once this day of getting poked and prodded and tested is over, she/he can come out and let people know they've got the gender fluid thing down pretty pat. Of course it debatable as to whether Kerry will come out and tell everyone at school about the new Gift–and even less likely Kerry will mention this to his/her parents.
Of course holding on to a secret can be something of a bitch in of itself…
Given what Kerry went through, what's the news?
The rest of the pelvic exam passed quickly with Annie keeping Kerry's mind of her discomfort while her uterus was being examined. Kerry was in good enough spirits to even joke with Coraline when the exam was over. "So, everything check out?"
"Won't know on the pap smear for a few days—" She stripped off her latex gloves and tossed them into a recycling bin. "But your uterus appears to be of a normal size and in the proper place."
"Everything else look good down there?"
"Oh, yeah." Coraline slowly lowered the stirrups. "You're just another one of the girls now."
"You're just another one of the girls now." That's the second time she's heard this, and now that Coraline's had a chance to personally check out her plumbing, that statement carries even more weight.
Now that we've seen the uncomfortable stuff–
Are you ready to get into the really uncomfortable stuff?

St Barts Island News: Colombier Beach is a truly unique place to visit while you're in St. Barts. A secluded beach, it is an entire bay area that is only accessible by boat or foot. Without access roads, it makes it a little more challenging to reach, but it is well worth it; the calm and transparent waters of this beach will take your breath away.
Purchased by the Rockefellar's in the 1960's, they built an awe-inspiring villa; since then, they have sold the entire thing, but the villa remains standing, preventing any new building from being erected. This adds to the charm of the island and makes it an excellent place to spend the day. The beach is sandy and there are large rocks that the kids will have fun climbing on. Although the beach itself is scattered with palm trees, they provide little solace from the mid-day sun; you would be well advised to pack lots of drinks and snacks as there is no where to purchase such provisions due to the seclusion of this beautiful area.
If you decide to take the walking path over to Colombier Beach, plan on about a 20 minute hike from the port of Gustavia. The trail is rough, and is not a path that will be easily negotiated by small children or those that are older. A quicker route is to take the boat ride, which gets you there in about 10 minutes.
Once you arrive on the beach, set up camp and just relax. Let the slight breeze off the water tickle your face and take some time to soak in the scenery. The water is crystal clear and provides a wonderful opportunity to snorkel; in fact, this beach happens to be the best place to do so. You will get an unmatched look at the fish, starfish, and sea turtles if you leave the beach and head for the right side of the bay. Do be cautious though as there are many boats that come in and out of the bay.
As a frequent visitor of Colombier Beach, I would highly recommend grabbing your sweetie, renting a boat just before sunset and heading over to the bay to enjoy a bottle of champagne and some fresh fruit. It happens to be one of the most romantic settings….in fact, likely more romantic than anything you could ever imagine. And, you don't have to tell her you got the tip from me; my lips are sealed.

Last year, we announced the construction of our television studio and the development of our children's program Digger Doug's Underground which airs on the Gospel Broadcasting Network (GBN). Our talented team of workers are making great progress and continue to hone their skills in the ongoing production of this children's television program. In addition to airing the show on TV, we have been determined to make these programs permanently available to a wider audience, enabling children to view them at their own leisure as often as they choose. We are happy to inform you that the next two episodes are now complete and available for shipping. Volume 2 of Digger Doug's Underground on DVD is packaged in an attractive and colorful DVD box. Episode Three is titled "Dinosaurs and Artifacts," while Episode Four is titled "Dinosaurs and Natural History." The first two episodes in Volume 1 were titled, "What about the Big Bang?" and "After Their Kind."
Here is a Christian program that rivals any secular children's TV show, yet offers to young minds critical content on God as the Creator. I have been amazed at children's reactions to this program. For example, consider the remarks we received recently from a college student in Tennessee whose five-year-old brother is an avid viewer of the program:
My brother's name is Bill, and he is five-years-old. He watches Digger Doug over and over on DVD and on GBN and has memorized facts and names of dinosaurs, as well as the different words examined on each episode (as defined each time by Willie the Word Worm). The other day, Bill and his friend Dustin were playing with some of Bill's dinosaur toys. Dustin said one of the names of the dinosaurs and Bill responded, "No, Dustin, that's all wrong!" He proceeded to correct Dustin's pronunciation and included a few additional facts about that particular dinosaur, adding that he knew all of this information "because I have two [A.P.] books about dinosaurs." Bill can also sing the entire [Digger Doug theme] song. You know, I think the song is great. But it can get annoying after the first few hundred times you hear it. (Ha!)
Children are like sponges—and they inevitably "soak up" those influences to which they are exposed. How fundamentally critical for parents and grandparents to provide resources to shape and nurture their children and grandchildren in the direction of God and His Word. Even as Moses warned the Israelites, "teach them to your children and your grandchildren" (Deuteronomy 4:9), so Paul admonished Christian parents to "bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord" (Ephesians 6:4).
I urge you to secure copies of both volumes of these DVDs (four 28-minute episodes in all) for children, grandchildren, and others you know who need the training and nurturing that this fascinating program provides and the timely truths it treats.

Seela Something Happened
Published Mar 01, 2000On the phone from her home in Austin, Texas, it's quickly clear why remarkable singer/songwriter Seela named her second album Something Happened - and equally clear that she's not telling what. "I like to be ambiguous," she says, "and leave enough room for someone to make it their own. I don't like to listen to someone tell me, 'This is what happened, and this is how I felt about it, and you should feel that way just hearing me talk about it.'" Ambiguous, yes, but the quest for answers is not what draws you in to her remarkable album. Having worked through a more straightforward, stripped down, and "less ambiguous" debut, Seela has found her voice, a combination of whispered delicacy, sexy growl and an inner yell that floats under the surface, but is more of an implicit threat than a overt weapon. The album draws from its influences second-hand, absorbing both its traditional source material, and that of its interpreters: country from Neil Young; punk and feminism from Patti Smith; and a mistrust of easy answers from her own songwriting and performing experience. Early on, she had a more confessional approach, Seela explains: "I'd be singing stuff that's frankly no one's business. It's like peeling your skin off in front of a roomful of strangers who are paying to watch." This time out, Seela projects the emotion without drawing a map, and with the assistance of producer Brian Beattie, successfully navigates a minefield of potential cliches. By the end of the record, you know what the something was that happened - you discovered a new fave. (New Improved Music)

ASK Academy scholar Nathan Maass spent all of last year studying abroad in Austria. He is back at the Academy this year as a senior. The Catalyst's Skylar Morales spoke with him about his experience as a foreign exchange student.
The Catalyst: Why did you choose Austria to study in?
Nathan Maass: "(The German) language has always been interesting for me and the program I was with only sends one student to each country, and Germany is very popular. The odds of me getting (Germany) were pretty slim. So my dad had a brilliant idea–Austria! They still speak German, and that's all I really wanted, so Austria was my first choice, and I'm very glad that's where I ended up."
TC: What program did you go through to study abroad?
Maass: "I went through Rotary Youth Exchange. Rotary is the largest humanitarian aid organization in the world. They do a number of things including ending polio, and sending exchange students abroad."
TC: How long were you abroad?
Maass: "About 11 months. I left August 17 and came back July 17 of this year."
TC: Did you come back to the states for holidays?
Maass: "No, in most programs that's not a thing; you stay the whole time. Having Christmas in Austria was wonderful!"
TC: Was it hard being away from your family for so long?
Maass: "The correct answer should be yes, but I didn't. I honestly just didn't, I was fine with the host families, the friends I made, the whole community."
TC: Where did you stay?
Maass: "I stayed with three host families, in a small farming community in a little village of about 150 people."
TC: How was living in that small of a community?
Maass: "It was wonderful; very different from America, but still great. Everybody knows each other, they have traditions for Easter, Christmas, and just all the holidays. It's just a nice community feel."
TC: What did your normal school day look like in Austria?
Maass: " I'd get up about 6:45 a.m. when the bus leaves for school, which takes about 45 minutes, but it was good because I had a friend to talk to. Then I would get to school and we would have class. Every day in Austria the school was different. Some days it would be 9:30 a.m.to 2 p.m., or 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., but most days it was about 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. I would go home on the bus and have lunch at about 3 p.m. In Austria, lunch is the biggest meal of the day. Then afterwards I'd study for school; I did a lot of German studying. Or sometimes I would stay in town with a friend. Or it was just a nice place to just walk around, or do a bit of hiking. I definitely did a lot of that."
TC: What is the biggest difference between high schools in Austria versus American schools?
Maass: "The ASK Academy, I have to say, is a wonderful school. In Austria you simply had a teacher walk into class, and lecture on a board. Lecture! Lecture! Lecture! Then at the end of class you get a paper, fill it out, do worksheets, and that was all it was. But that wasn't even the biggest difference. In Austria, you are with the same class the whole day. The same 24ish students, in the same classroom, and the teachers rotate classrooms. It can be quite boring. ASK Academy is a lot more creativity, and has more projects; it's much better."
TC: Describe your social life in Austria.
Maass: "It is a bit easier than in America, because they have a lot of trains and buses. My friends and I would meet after school, which was about 5 minutes away from the inner city of the town that was near me. We would go to the movies, go out for lunch; it was a lot easier. You didn't have to drive so much, and there is a lot of freedom to meet up with people. A lot of times I would just say, 'Hey, um, I'm going out, I'll be gone the whole day. Bye!' and it was fine."
TC: Do you still keep in touch with the friends you made abroad?
Maass: "In fact I do! I text them or even call them relatively regularly, and my host families as well."
TC: What were you most nervous about going abroad?
Maass: "School was probably the scariest thing, because I know if someone tries you can always make friends, you can try and fit into the culture and maybe it might be hard, but you can still do well. But school is tough because before, I was with the same class every day, who knows if they would like me, and speaking the language. In the beginning I couldn't do school, they were speaking German so I didn't know what they were saying. But in the end it was fine."
TC: What is one thing you miss now that you back in the States?
Maass: "I could say food but I suppose you could say that about anywhere. Something particular to Austria would probably be the traditions, the culture, and having all the different holidays throughout the year. And also the language and being able to speak German. It is probably the language and culture I miss most."
TC: Would you recommend studying abroad to other high school students?
Maass: "Absolutely. It is such an experience that so many people aren't going to have, and it really broadens your horizons. You see a new culture, another place, and you get to adapt. And sure there are struggles sometimes, and it can be hard, but in the end it's so worth it. To see the places, experience the cultures, make international friends, and just to be part of another country; it's like having two homes. Everything about it was wonderful."

Anya's Service Station Pops Up
ANYA HINDMARCH certainly isn't shy of a heavy workload. With just two weeks to go until she unveils her spring/summer 2016 collection at London Fashion Week, the designer has launched the Anya HindmarchService Station Pop-Up at Selfridges.
Situated at the entrance to the actual third-floor carpark in the Oxford Street department store, shoppers can purchase the autumn/winter 2015 collection – as well as a number of other fun car-journey-related gifts – not to mention get their hands on a personalised high-vis jacket (who doesn't need one of those in their boot?) after getting their photo taken in the car wash – attended, naturally, by model mechanics.
"I wanted to take the creativity of the LFW show directly to our customers in a fun and unexpected way," said Hindmarch this morning prior to the launch. "Doing a pop-up in the Selfridges car park felt so right given the autumn/winter 2015 collection was inspired by many hours driving on the M25! I always think fashion should make you smile so was keen to create a pop-up that was creative and stylish but also offered fun experiences for people – a hot car wash photo booth, exclusive service station merchandise like condoms and nodding dogs that you can only buy here, and high-vis jackets like the ones worn in our show that you can personalise with your name."

G.E Silos prepare for another busy season after the demands of last year for their quality grain silos.
In 2011 the grain silo maunfacturers were actually forced to turn customers away after increased demands meant that they could not guarantee prompt delivery explains Jason Comer,
G.E. Silos Manager.
G.E Silos have a reputation for manufacturing grain silos of superior quality and have recently introduced five new models to their range.
New grain silo models from G.E Silos include:
