text:
During arbitration, evidence and testimony are presented at a formal arbitration hearing. Discovery may occur before then, but its scope usually is limited by the parties' agreement or the arbitrator rules. After the arbitration hearing, the arbitrator issues a decision, known as an "award."
Arbitration may be binding or non-binding. Most arbitrations held in the U.S. today are binding arbitrations. In a "binding" arbitration, the arbitrator's decision is final, binding, and enforceable in court, similar to a court judgment. Both Wisconsin state and federal courts will enforce binding arbitration decisions. A "non-binding" arbitration does not have these elements of a binding arbitration, but can be helpful for evaluating a case or creating a basis for settlement negotiations between the parties.
The utility of arbitration (and other forms of alternative dispute resolution) in a particular dispute depends on various factors, including the nature of the dispute, the contract at issue and the state and federal laws in question, as well as the potential financial and time-related costs of litigation.
So why do parties choose arbitration? They do so because the arbitration process offers certain advantages. For instance, arbitration allows the parties to choose the place, time, rules, law, and people who will make the decision on the dispute. This flexibility, in turn, can make it easier for the parties to present technical facts since they can often choose a person or panel with expertise to understand a complex situation. The arbitration process also is typically shorter and faster than litigation and a trial due to limited, private discovery and streamlined procedural rules. Finally, most arbitration decisions are final and binding, with no appeals.
As with every dispute resolution process, however, arbitration also has certain disadvantages. Arbitration does not offer the right to a judge or a jury. Discovery is limited not only by the "ground rules" of the selected arbitration forum, but also by the limited power arbitrators have to force non-parties to submit to discovery or to issue subpoenas. Third parties cannot be added to arbitration without their consent, making complex multi-party disputes more difficult to resolve. Court rules of evidence and procedure do not apply. Since complex arbitration can be costly, parties with limited financial resources may be at a disadvantage in arbitration, and may not have the leverage litigation can provide to share or shift costs.
Arbitrators have wide discretion in their decision-making and have no obligation to explain their reasoning to the parties. Appeals from arbitration awards are rare. Typically, an arbitration award can be overturned only as a result of corruption, fraud, partiality, or prejudicial misconduct by the arbitrator.

10 Tips For Thriving in a Portfolio Career
In the new world of work, many people are adopting a portfolio approach to their career. This involves crafting a full time role out of a number of part-time jobs. Sometimes the part-time roles are permanent roles but more often the portfolio includes a changing patchwork of freelance roles, temporary roles, project work and self-employment.
There are a lot of potential benefits to a portfolio career. However it isn't necessarily easy to make it work, there are some traps. I have had a portfolio career for almost 15 years and I love it! However, I have made some mistakes and mis-steps. Here is what I have learnt along the way:
1. Does your portfolio work as a whole?
Make sure the different parts of your portfolio work together so that the whole is more than the sum of the parts. For example, one part of my portfolio is as an Executive Coach in my own consulting business and another part is as a lecturer in the Executive MBA program at Queensland University of Technology These roles support each other. The coaching gives me plenty of current, practical experience to draw on when teaching my MBA students and the leadership and business theory I cover in the MBA is invaluable in my 1:1 coaching.
2. Keep it moving
Maintain momentum in all parts of your portfolio; don't focus on one aspect and neglect another for too long – try to keep all the plates spinning! This can be hard when you are busy but it doesn't have to be much, just an email or quick call to keep in contact with the people you like working with.
3. Bring your rare and valuable skills
Be 'So good they can't ignore you'. The worst kind of portfolio career involves juggling a string of part-time, low paid jobs. Avoid that if at all possible! If you have rare and valuable skills that are in high demand, your portfolio can be made up of interesting and reasonably paid work.
3.1 How do you become 'So good they can't ignore you'?
• Know your strengths and be clear on how to capitalize on them (a good coach can help you to work out how to do this).
• Watch for trends in your profession, so that you can make an informed prediction about which skills are likely to be in demand in the future.
• Keep developing your skills. Put aside time and money for your own learning and development.
• Make time for reflection. After and during each project do a review, what did you do well? What could you do better next time?
• Get good quality feedback from others about what you are doing that genuinely adds value and also where you could improve.
4. Who do you want to work with?
Adopt a 'red velvet rope' policy. Choose to only work with employers and clients who bring out your best work. Again, if you have rare and valuable skills it will be easier to be picky about who you will and won't work with.
5. Don't undercharge
Know the market rate for what you are offering. If the work is casual – make sure you include extra to compensate for the uncertainty, lack of sick pay etc. Value what you bring.
Sometimes you will need to volunteer your time to your employers but have boundaries – don't do a full time workload on part time pay!
6. Don't just be a hanger on
Build meaningful relationships with people in the different parts of your portfolio. Pause and have a coffee or eat your lunch in the common area and take the opportunity to chat with your colleagues. It can be so easy to just do your work and leave but it is well worth nurturing good relationships with your coworkers. A portfolio career can be lonely, you can feel like a bit of an outsider everywhere. Don't accept that as inevitable. Not only will these relationships make you happier, they will also have a positive impact on your career. Innovative ideas and interesting projects often emerge from informal conversations in the tea room. If you want your portfolio to evolve and remain interesting, you need to be part of that process of innovation.
7. Make frugality a virtue!
Reduce any debt as fast as you can; have some 'running away/rainy day' money saved. Portfolio careers tend to have more income variability than traditional careers. If you are under pressure to pay off a mortgage or service an expensive lifestyle, then a fluctuating income is very stressful.
8. Don't play it too safe or too small
As an outsider; you have an unique perspective to offer each team in your portfolio. Be willing to courageously and thoughtfully offer your perspective and know when to shut up and listen. Know when to drop a viewpoint that isn't going to fly and also when not to get involved because it really isn't your business!
9. Know your values
Build a consistent brand by knowing your values and consciously living them. This gives you a feeling of consistency across different settings and also will improve both your performance and your wellbeing. There is more information about values in a previous blog here.
10. Schedule holidays
Block out time in your diary well in advance and take time to explore, refresh and rest. Recovery time is important for your long term wellbeing; you will also do better work if you take regular breaks.
Portfolio careers aren't for everyone. They can be hard work. The uncertainty can be stressful and juggling different roles is demanding. However, the capacity to build your own patchwork of interesting work is very rewarding.

Study demonstrates link between epilepsy and sleep disturbances
A study in South Korea has provided new evidence that epilepsy is linked with sleep disturbance.
Led by Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, researchers aimed to document the frequency of sleep problems in subjects with epilepsy and determine factors associated with these difficulties.
A study sample of 180 people with epilepsy and 2,836 'healthy controls' were recruited, and information was obtained for each person about sleep problems (relative to age), gender, body mass index, alcohol intake, smoking, perceived sleep insufficiency and habitual snoring.
Published in the medical journal Epilepsy & Behavior, the results showed that sleep disturbance was more common in the people with epilepsy than in controls, and that poor sleep quality, excessive daytime sleepiness and insomnia were all significantly linked to epilepsy. In addition, people with epilepsy who had experienced seizure remissions for the previous year were generally found to have insomnia less often. As expected, depressive mood, anxiety and perceived sleep insufficiency were also associated with sleep disturbance.
The researchers concluded: "Epilepsy was significantly associated with the higher frequency of sleep disturbances, which supports the importance of screening sleep problems in patients with epilepsy and providing available intervention."

Hi, I have a couple of Payment forms on my site which allow credit card and Paypal payments. The past few days, my users have been emailing me saying they can't submit payment via Paypal. When they enter their information in and click submit, the submit button hangs and nothing happens. The form should redirect to Paypal.
I tried this myself on a few different computers and browsers and I was able to recreate the same error. However, refreshing the page a couple of times fixed this and I was able to submit and go through to Paypal. Any ideas what could be causing this initial hang when clicking submit?

The board, faculty, and staff of Covenant Seminary are pleased to announce a new Director for the Seminary's City Ministry Initiative (CMI). Jeremy Main will assume the Director role with CMI this fall while continuing to direct the Field Education Department and teach classes as an Adjunct Professor of Educational Ministries.
Main, a 2015 graduate of Covenant's Master of Arts in Educational Ministries (MAEM) program, has served as Director of Field Education since 2017 and brings to his new role a wealth of experience in higher education, urban ministry leadership development, and community partnership development. With three MA degrees—in urban affairs (Saint Louis University), political science (University of Missouri–St. Louis), and educational ministries (Covenant Seminary), Main is currently finishing up a Doctor of Transformational Leadership (DTL) from Bakke Graduate University. His dissertation focuses on seminary-community collaborations for urban ministry leadership and community development. Main also serves as a ruling elder at Midtown Church (PCA) in St. Louis. He and his wife, Trisha, have three children.
Of his new role with CMI, Main says, "I am grateful for the opportunity to help steward this next season of CMI's development. I am particularly excited to work with others at Covenant and across our city to re-imagine how CMI can catalyze collaboration between the Seminary and the global church of St. Louis for equipping current and emerging city ministry leaders. Covenant has much to learn from the city in which God placed us, but I also believe we have much to offer toward the flourishing of St. Louis. We are bound together in profound ways, and I am eager to explore how CMI can embody and express that reality."
CMI provides Covenant Seminary students and members of the broader community with diverse opportunities to explore together the story of God's work in the city while becoming better equipped as leaders to facilitate transformational gospel ministries in intercultural city contexts. Through learning pathways such as annual conferences, periodic community events, city ministry elective courses, the City Ministry Track of the Master of Arts in Ministry (MAM) degree, and internship placements in city churches and non-profits, CMI invites people into the beauty and brokenness of the city, and into the Scriptures, to foster better understanding of God's Kingdom purposes in Christ for today's cities.
Dr. Mark Dalbey, President of Covenant Seminary, commented, "We are delighted that Jeremy will step in to direct a program that plays a key part in our mission to equip God's Kingdom servants. His academic qualifications, his personal knowledge of St. Louis and the Seminary, and his heart for helping our students develop better relationships and better gospel understanding across racial, ethnic, and cultural lines make him ideal to lead CMI. We look forward to seeing how God will use Jeremy to inspire and motivate a new generation of gospel leaders."

The weather forecast for the weekend had been for cold temperatures and some snow and, sure enough, we were not far out of London when the landscapes became white under a beautiful blue sky. The sky changed to grey as we went further north and, on changing trains at Preston, the snow was falling.
The train bookings I had made for this journey were a little odd, to say the least. I had booked to arrive at Burnley Barracks, as it allowed the earliest connection to my train from London, only to find that the same train was going on to Burnley Central and that the Barracks station was a request stop on the line which meant that you had to ask the conductor to let you off there. Since Central was a better option for the ground, I asked whether there would be a penalty if I stayed on for the extra stop and was assured that I would be fine. So, with the snow falling heavily, I opted for an extra 2 minutes on the train to save a further 10 minute walk.
As I walked towards the ground, I was amazed to see someone setting up a stall selling Burnley/Watford half-and-half scarves. Who on earth did he think would buy one? This was not a game likely to attract a lot of tourists. When I arrived at the Cricket Club, I was expecting to see some of my party in our usual spot, but the room was empty. Thankfully, they arrived soon after and we were soon thoroughly enjoying the cask beer and the pie, chips, mushy peas and gravy on offer at Annie's Kitchen. Our party grew quickly and there was a lovely surprise when the arrival of the supporters' coach led to us being joined by the two Janices, who declared that they had finally found somewhere in Burnley that they liked.
As we got to the turnstiles, we endured the usual search which was made unusually pleasant by the stewards being rather apologetic about the intrusion.
Team news was two changes from the Spurs game with Janmaat and Carrillo coming in for Femenía and Prödl. Silva had also opted for a change in formation to 4-2-3-1. So the starting line-up was Gomes; Janmaat, Mariappa, Kabasele, Zeegelaar; Cleverley, Doucouré; Carrillo, Pereyra, Richarlison; Deeney. Burnley's starting line-up included former Watford loanee, Jack Cork, but the main connection was in the dug-out with former player and manager, Sean Dyche, and his best mate, Ian Woan.
The view from the away end at Burnley is rather delightful. If there is nothing interesting to see on the pitch, you have the hills to look at which, on this occasion, looked enchanting with their frosting of snow.
The first chance of the game fell to the visitors as an early corner from Cleverley was touched on by Pereyra to Deeney who nodded wide. Watford should have opened the scoring when Carrillo played a great ball to Richarlison but the young Brazilian shot just wide of the near post. The travelling Hornets had great faith in him, though, as they started a chant of "He'll score in the snow." At this point, there was some discussion about the players who were wearing gloves, Carrillo and Richarlison I accepted, but Janmaat is Dutch, he shouldn't be bothered by a little snow! Burnley's first chance came with a shot from Wood which was comfortably gathered by Gomes. The home side had a wonderful chance to take the lead when they won a free kick in a dangerous position. Gudmundsson delivered a superb shot over the wall which was met by an equally brilliant save by Gomes to keep the game goalless. The Icelander had another go, but this time his shot from distance was wide of the near post. The next Burnley chance came from a long pass upfield that Wood met on the volley, but Gomes had an easy catch. Watford threatened when a long throw was met by a snapshot from Doucouré which was saved resulting, eventually, in a corner, which came to nothing as Kabasele shot well wide.
The snow was coming down in earnest now, but we were warmed by a lovely passing move from the Hornets that finished with a cross from Pereyra being headed goalwards by Janmaat, unfortunately Pope was able to make the save. A couple of minutes later, it all went horribly wrong as Zeegelaar slid into a challenge on Defour. It didn't look particularly bad from our vantage point, so there was shock among the travelling fans when a red card was brandished. Due to the dismissal, Silva made the decision to sacrifice Pereyra for Holebas. The Watford fans were calling for a penalty soon afterwards when Richarlison was knocked down in the box, but nothing was given. Holebas had a chance to put Watford in the lead as he latched on to a cross from Carrillo, but he powered his shot into the side netting. Burnley took the lead just before half time as Gudmundsson found Arfield in space and he slotted home. It was all rather cruel.
At half time there was a lot of complaining about the referee, apart from those who had received messages from friends with a better view who were all of the opinion that the card had been justified. Whatever the truth of the matter, we were looking forward to a very tough 45 minutes.
Early in the second half, there was an angry exchange between Gomes and the referee. The keeper had taken off his gloves and appeared to be gesturing to his hand, possibly to an injury that he had sustained that had evaded the notice of the referee. The first chance of the second half came when Richarlison played a square ball to Doucouré who directed the shot wide of the target. Then Janmaat did well to battle past a couple of defenders into the box, but was tackled and the ball went out for what looked like a corner, but a goal kick was given. Carrillo had the ball in the box with the goal at his mercy, but he thought too long about the shot and was tackled. Then, following a couple of blocked shots after a corner, the ball fell to Cleverley on the edge of the box but he fired over the target. It appeared to be game over just before the hour mark when a ball over the top found Wood who tapped home, but his celebrations were stopped by an offside flag. Burnley threatened again as a free kick reached Long who shot over the bar. There was another shout for a Watford penalty as Carrillo collided with a Burnley player in the box, he went down protesting, but it looked like a coming together to me and the referee was right to wave play on.
Burnley had the ball in the net again as Watford failed to clear allowing the ball through to Barnes, who was flagged offside although, on this occasion, there was a long discussion between the linesman and referee before he indicated the free kick as opposed to a goal, much to the relief of those in the away end. Burnley were then awarded a free kick on the edge of the box for what appeared to be a foul on Kabasele. Thankfully Defour hit it just wide of the target. Deeney played in Richarlison who was taken down in the box but, with the travelling Hornets again howling for a penalty, the referee indicated a corner. Watford's second substitution came with 10 minutes to go as Carrillo made way for Gray who was welcomed back to Turf Moor with boos and chants of "short, greedy b*st*rd." It is so lovely to be warmly remembered. A Watford corner came to nothing as Janmaat headed just over. Gray had an early chance to anger the home fans further as he ran on to a lovely ball from Richarlison, but Pope arrived first to avert the danger. Burnley had a great chance to increase their lead but Gomes stretched to pull off a great save to stop Gudmundsson's shot. Richarlison was in the wars again as Bardsley sent him flying and was booked for his trouble. Watford threatened from a free-kick, Holebas delivered a lovely ball into the box, but no Watford player could connect to shoot. The visitors had a final chance to save a point when they were awarded a free kick in the last minute of added time. Gomes joined his colleagues in the Burnley box, but Pope plucked the delivery out of the air and the game ended in a narrow defeat for the Hornets.
After the final whistle, both Silva and Gomes had stern words with the referee and, once the players had been applauded off, he attracted the wrath of the away fans, although I don't think he was flavour of the month for the home fans either after the disallowed 'goals'. Sean Dyche again acknowledged the Watford fans on his way towards the tunnel and was rewarded with warm applause.
My eccentric train booking meant that I had a couple of hours to kill in Burnley after the game. Having been irritated by some goading on our way back to the cricket club, I was thankful that those inside were generally very pleasant and our post-match reflections took place in a convivial atmosphere. The general feeling among the Watford fans was pure frustration. Burnley were always going to be difficult opponents, but the game had been shaping up nicely as a contest when Zeegelaar was dismissed. The ten men competed admirably for the whole of the second half and nobody could have argued it was undeserved if they had gone home with a point. But I would have loved to see what we could have done with 11 against 11 for 90 minutes.
The journey home started with a treacherous walk on icy pavements to the station. We were then treated to a slow running train to Preston, which had us anxiously checking our watches and connection time. We needn't have worried as the London train was kept in Preston station to meet a train from Glasgow that was not going any further south. This also had the knock-on effect of extra stops and an arrival in London after 11pm. There was an upside, though, as one of the passengers who transferred from the Glasgow train was the lovely James McArdle whose work at the National Theatre I have greatly admired. He walked past me half a dozen times before I plucked up the courage to ask if he was who I thought he was and, when he answered in the affirmative, tell him how much I enjoyed his work. The encounter cheered me up no end.
Due to further delays on top of my late booking, it was nearly 1am before I arrived home. It is a long journey home after a defeat but somehow it doesn't discourage me and I found myself looking at the route to Huddersfield today (although trains won't be booked until the TV fixtures are out for April). We go again at Selhurst Park on Tuesday, another ground that most people dread visiting, but I quite like for the atmosphere and the feel of a 'proper' football ground (even if I can't see much). I am forgoing my work Christmas party for this match, so am very much hoping that it is worth the sacrifice.

Why Dutch Jews are up in arms over the handling of a kosher restaurant attack
December 29, 2017
AMSTERDAM (JTA)-Two weeks ago, a 29-year-old man waving a Palestinian flag smashed the windows of a kosher restaurant with a wooden club, stealing an Israeli flag there. Police arrested the suspect on the spot
The Dec. 7 incident, which occurred the day after President Donald Trump declared that the United States officially recognizes Jerusalem as Israel's capital, triggered an outpouring of condemnations by Dutch leaders. Prime Minister Mark Rutte called it "terrible," and 15 lawmakers ate there that evening as a gesture of solidarity.
Yet just 60 hours later the suspect-identified in the media as Saleh Ali-was free. Authorities never divulged details about his identity and origins despite the absence of a gag order, and reports that Ali was a former combatant in Syria's civil war in the Netherlands on an asylum-seeker visa.
The lack of clarity on these issues is feeding a growing resentment among the Jewish community here regarding the authorities' handling of the attack itself, along with the aftermath. Some point to the police's apparent inaction during the attack-in a video, authorities appear to witness the violent incident without interfering-as problematic. But to many Dutch Jews, perhaps the most disturbing aspect is that the draft indictment against Ali mentions only vandalism and theft.
In other words, Dutch officials don't consider Ali's actions a hate crime. And that, according to Jewish leaders, is a problem.
During the trial, which began here Wednesday, Ali declined to answer the judge's questions and "kept going on about the Palestinian cause," according to Saskia Belleman, the court correspondent of De Telegraaf daily, who reported the suspect has been assigned a psychiatric evaluation.
It also emerged in court that Ali told an officer after his arrest that the attack was "only the first step."
Asked about the next step, he said: "I will tell you later, no one needs to know."
Such statements are "chilling," said Ronny Naftaniel, who spent 40 years at the helm of the Netherlands' main anti-Semitism watchdog group, CIDI.
"I have never encountered a case like this," added Naftaniel, who retired in 2013. "And I am one of many Dutch Jews whose confidence in the judiciary has been compromised here."
By contrast, police held a Dutch Jew named Michael Jacobs for a week this summer for repeatedly standing near anti-Israel protesters while wearing an Israeli flag, even though there are no laws prohibiting it.
"Apparently the judiciary does not see any parallels" between Jacobs and the kosher restaurant attacker, Esther Voet, editor in chief of the NIW Dutch Jewish weekly, wrote in an op-ed published last week.
"Far-right violence is swiftly punished. But this," Voet wrote of the restaurant attack, "that's different. The Jews were asking for it."
The Public Prosecution Service declined to tell JTA anything about the suspect but his age and city of residence in the Netherlands, which is Amsterdam. A spokesman declined to say why other details are being withheld. He said the suspect was released because "there were no grounds to detain him" any longer.
In the background of how authorities are handling the case, Voet said, is fear that the incident may help the Netherlands' rising populist right wing-led by the anti-Islam politician Geert Wilders of the Party for Freedom.
"Authorities attempt, out of fear from further polarization in society, to sweep everything under the carpet, but it's having the opposite effect," she told the Metro daily. "We are not the Jews of past decades, we will not sit quietly as this happens to us. We will speak out."
This reference to a past in which 75 percent of Dutch Jewry was murdered in the Holocaust is unusual for such a prominent representative of Dutch Jewry. But it's not the only one. Frits Barend, one of the country's best-known Jewish journalists, told De Telegraaf daily after the attack: "It reminds of me Kristallnacht"-the name for the 1938 pogroms organized by Nazis against Jews.
CIDI under its current director, Hanna Luden, called the suspect's release "shocking."
Coupled with the scaling back this year of police protection for Jewish-owned buildings in Amsterdam-a precaution that was taken after the 2015 slaying of four Jews in Paris by an Islamist-the incident at the HaCarmel kosher restaurant and its handling by authorities "are making Dutch Jews feel less safe," Naftaniel said.
Earlier this year, similar complaints were heard from many French Jews. They vocally and persistently protested the absence of a hate crime charge from the indictment of a 27-year-old Muslim man who on April 4 killed Sarah Halimi, his 67-year-old Jewish neighbor, while shouting about Allah and calling her a demon. The man, Kobili Traore, had a history of anti-Semitic rhetoric.
Traore was not arrested but was hospitalized for weeks in an institution for treating mental illnesses, although he had no record of such problems. Police refused to disclose his whereabouts and the conditions of his detainment for months.
The Halimi attack occurred just weeks before presidential elections, which brought the far-right National Front party closer to power than ever. As such, the case was "covered up" by the judiciary, charged Francis Kalifat, the president of the CRIF umbrella of French Jewish communities, including during a public address before President Emmanuel Macron.
Amid local and international pressure, French prosecutors added hate crime charges in September.
But the Dutch Jewish community, which on Sunday held a Chanukah ceremony in Amsterdam to thank police and the justice minister for their protection, has not yet reached their "Sarah Halimi moment," Naftaniel said, referring to the silent marches that French Jews held to protest the affair.
"But the kosher restaurant has definitely caused many Dutch Jews to pause, look around and ask tough questions of the authorities," Naftaniel said. "That's a good thing."

China rules that all polluters held accountable regardless of fault
According to a legal explanation issued by the Supreme People's Court on Monday, which will be enforced from Wednesday, polluters will be held accountable for any discharge, even if it is within national or local standards, that causes damage.
The SPC said the ruling would also apply to public-interest litigation on environmental issues.
One year after the world's second-largest economy "declared war" on pollution -- following decades of pursing growth at the expense of air, water and soil quality -- pollution remains a key challenge in the country.
The revised Environmental Law was adopted last year, bringing with it heavier punishment for those that break environment-protection legislation.
The new law stipulated that polluting enterprises should be "named and shamed".
As an incentive for companies to expedite costly modifications to reduce pollutants, a daily fine system was introduced. No limit was set on the fine, meaning that polluting companies that fail to rectify problems will accumulate higher fines.
Executives at polluting companies could face up to 15-days detention.

October 18th, 2018 – the world is plunged into the Wizard's 2018-19 NBA season. Only time will tell if this is a season worth following as the super-team era is very much in full swing, but don't be so quick to turn your nose at this squadron. If all things go according to plan, we could have a real dark horse story on our hands. So, without further ado, I present to you the 3 things that must happen to ensure an above average season from the hoop group in the nation's capital.
Dwight Howard Must Take the Backseat
Since we drafted him, this has unequivocally been John Wall's team. The guy is undoubtedly the face of the franchise and will never surrender that spot.
In the past, stories of a power struggle in the locker room followed Howard around wherever he went; with Kobe Bryant and Steve Nash in Los Angeles to James Harden in Houston, Howard wants (and seemingly needs) to be the focal point of the team, otherwise he destroys the locker room.
It is unfortunate that Howard was so good for the Magic in his first couple of seasons, because without consistent dominant performances in Orlando, he wouldn't have adopted this mantra. Instead, maybe, he would be okay with taking the backseat.
But here he is on Wall's team. Bradley Beal knows it is Wall's team, even though both are All-Star caliber players.
In a team with an already unsteady locker room, Howard needs to do his part in ensuring the success of the team, not just his numbers. This calls for him to understand his role on the team right away- if he doesn't, things could get messy.
John Wall Needs to Prove Everybody Wrong
In their latest ranking of point guards headed into this season, Bleacher Report ranked John Wall as the number eight best point guard in the league, behind Kemba Walker and just ahead of Mike Conley.
That is outright disrespectful to the Kentucky product, and he knows it.
This past summer, John Wall has documented his "Summer of Separation." Essentially, all of his social media accounts were devoted to showcasing his extreme, grueling workouts. The man is working harder than most this offseason in hopes of smacking all of the analysts across the face who proclaimed that he was dropping off.
John needs to show out this year, and that means avoiding injury. It is his incessant injuries that keep him out of the top five point guard conversation. He has the talent, athleticism, and basketball IQ to run this league, so he needs to show that.
If Wall remains healthy and he and Howard work in tandem, the Wizards are in store for a good season.
Kelly Oubre, It's Your Time
Arguably the most beautiful player in the league, the third year man out of Kansas needs to have a breakthrough season.
With the Wiz still pledging allegiance to Otto Porter, the leader of the bench squad responsibility lands on Oubre's shoulders.
The kid has had flashes of brilliance in the past season, but the Wizards need more than just flashes. Playing with a better bench than he has in years due to offseason additions Austin Rivers and Troy Brown Jr., Oubre should be spreading his wings this season.
He is durable, freakishly athletic, and competitive beyond belief; all characteristics for a young star in the making. He just needs to put in the work, and if he does, that'll not only take a load off the starters but give an injection of energy and swagger to the bench group.
Kelly, this team needs you as much as they need the likes of Wall, Beal, etc. Time to show out, or else you're going to find your way out of the nation's capital.
So what have we learned? The Wizards need a lot to go right for them to make waves this season; however, on the slight off-chance that all things fall into place, this season could be worth following.
Prediction: 52-30

Two years ago it was shark attacks. Last summer it was Pokémon GO! On the Outer Banks today, the current beach nourishment projects dominate the talk of the town. Maybe you've even seen the action during a trip to the northern towns' beaches this summer: Pumps spurting black sand onto the beaches, bulldozers pushing it here and there, the orange netting around construction sites. Just weeks ago, a nice visitor from Washington, D.C., and I had a discussion about the project. He, like many others, asked a fair question: What's the deal with this whole beach nourishment thing and what does that mean?
Photo: Town of Duck Facebook
Have you ever seen an aerial shot of the Outer Banks? It's a pearl-like string of barrier islands delicately lining North Carolina's coast. These thin islands face the constant brunt of waves, storm surges and sea level rise. Plus the islands are basically piles of sand, and sand naturally moves and shifts. This puts properties, communities and individuals at risk, and that's where beach nourishment comes in. This summer's finished and current beach nourishment projects in Duck, Southern Shores, Kitty Hawk, Kill Devil Hills and Buxton intend to widen these towns' diminishing shorelines in efforts of fighting erosion and protecting against future storms — and to maintain a nice, wide beach for all the summer visitors. Attractive beaches are, after all, why everyone comes here.
Beach nourishment works by pumping sand from the ocean floor onto the beach then spreading it to increase the amount of the land on the shore. At first glance beach nourishment raises concerns for some people. After all, people operating construction equipment and loud machinery on the untouched beach seems like a quintessential Carl Hiaasen plot device. But the projects tend to move quickly when they go as scheduled and never stay active in one location for too long. This means that the work you see isn't for the long-term but the benefits are.
So what does beach nourishment mean for vacationers and other beachgoers this summer? It can be inconvenient, but it won't change anyone's plans too much. The worst-case scenario? You may not be able to access your preferred beach access one week, and you'll have to find a temporary alternative. Or your oceanfront cottage may overlook one of the active pumping sites. Obviously, entering or disturbing the active dredging and pumping sites is off-limits.
On the Outer Banks this week, here are the beach nourishment projects you can expect to find:
Kitty Hawk: The town's pumping projects have paused upon finishing the beach nourishment between the town's southern border to just south of Kitty Hawk Road. The town's remaining projects will commence after the beach nourishment in Kill Devil Hills is completed.
Kill Devil Hills: The beach nourishment project between Third and Fourth Streets is in the process of wrapping up this week, and as a result, beachgoers should expect to find the public beach access at Fifth Street closed. Those interested in diving at the Triangle Wrecks site might reconsider their choice in location. The pumping crews are clearing pipelines from the area, which may make boat traffic heavy for a few days. A pump site at the beach around Helga Street will also become active this week and move south toward the landing site just beyond Avalon Pier.
Buxton: The current beach nourishment project had been put on hold due to unsafe water conditions affecting the pump site. The dredge has returned to operation this week, and construction will continue moving northward.

Now it's time to check out what else is coming up this week on the Outer Banks.
Carolina Boat Builders Tournament
Don't let the name confuse you — this tournament is one of fishing prowess and not boat-building abilities. Anglers of all skill levels come out for this three-day Outer Banks fishing event to partake in the competition just as much as the fun. The tournament runs from Thursday through Saturday, but the event begins with registration and cocktails on Wednesday night at Pirate's Cove Marina in Manteo. Lines go in the water daily between 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Return to the Pirate's Cove at 6 p.m. for cocktails and hors d'oeuvres followed by dinner provided by local Outer Banks eateries. The awards banquet will be held on Saturday evening to recognize the participants from various categories. Register online or at the opening event on Wednesday night.

The Mystery of the Lost Colony Comes to Duck
You're probably familiar with the beloved production of The Lost Colony, but perhaps you can't seem to find the time to make it to Roanoke Island for one of the shows. If you're in the northern part of the Outer Banks, you're in luck. The kid-friendly spin-off, The Mystery of the Lost Colony, will be performed at the Town of Duck Amphitheater on Tuesday and Wednesday at 10 a.m. Thanks to sponsor Carolina Designs, both shows are free and open to the public. This show teaches young audiences about our nation's history and makes them part of the production too. Photo: The Lost Colony Facebook

What links a webcam girl, a cross-dressing police chief and an escaped ferret?
A British nation torn by Brexit staggers on. Frankie Ferret, a pre-school children's TV celebrity escapes into sewers of London and surely is dead. The people unite in grief. Police Chiefs, counselors and politicos stand in tear stained sincerity with the common people. Viktor Pinupskin of Russia offers a genetically modified bear cub with his own face as a substitute. Internet bots urge a vote and attempt to sway the masses. Chaos and panic threaten to destroy the economy.
Into the mix steps young police inspector Crispin Bissel. His mission is to lead the search and target PR for the cops. His ex girlfriend, Selena Fontesse is a mature ex web cam girl specializing in veggie porn. She has the looks and the bosom to comfort a people broken by sorrow.
Could love be re-kindled over an open drain? Could Frankie be alive? Could a billionaire, a hot air balloon, a pop star, and a staring messianic child bring happiness back to a population in despair? And what if the big plans were to fail?
What if there were a cover up?
A deplorable basket case of a book. All right thinking people should be offended. Cross dressing vegan cannibals will love this story. There's no safe space on campus when a ferret like Frankie gets into the pipes. A tender love story, an outrageous unfair satire, an expose of the media-cult whirl in which we live where news, fake news and spin are the currencies of coercion.
Buy this book and forgive yourself for laughing. It's not incorrect if you didn't mean to.

Author Bio:
Oscar Sparrow was born in Winchester UK in 1949, apparently thanks to the American Marshal Aid programme to re-build Europe after the war. As the colour red leached its way out of the map of the British Empire, Oscar attended a die-hard Church school designed to create noble savages to serve what was left of the savage Nobles. The Eleven Plus exam revealed that he could not even count to eleven and he became a mechanic, labourer, truck driver, boxer and poet. He read Wordsworth and Ford Cortina manuals in a lorry cab near both Oxford and Cambridge universities. He married a kind forgiving woman who eventually forgave herself for that one big mistake. He has several wonderful children and hopes that one day they will all meet.
At the age of 25 he heard the music of Edith Piaf and learned to sing all her songs. A few years later he realised she was French and that he was an ugly swan not a beautiful duckling. The shock propelled him to London where he joined the Metropolitan Police. Car chases and riots followed but he did not take it personally. He spent his spare time touring the Art galleries, singing Piaf and learning Italian. Eventually The Authorities fell for the con and gave him a desk job in the Art department of Interpol London at Scotland Yard.
One day a few years later, the lure of the wild swept him away to the roads of Europe as road gipsy trucker. His love of fried battered fish eventually drew him back to England where he drove sewage tankers and set up a taxi business.
Throughout all this time he was a would be poet, short story writer and novelist. Always scribbling he sent waves of short stories to magazines and published poems via the National Poetry Foundation magazines.

Acrylamide in Food and Risk of Cancer
- May 1, 2018
What is acrylamide?
Acrylamide is a chemical used primarily to make substances called polyacrylamide and acrylamide copolymers. Polyacrylamide and acrylamide copolymers are used in many industrial processes, such as in the production of plastics and paper and found in consumer products such as food packaging.
Acrylamide is also naturally present in some foods and at higher levels in cigarette smoke. It can also be produced when certain foods containing the amino acid asparagine are heated to high temperatures during cooking (e.g., grilling or frying) in the presence of sugars.
What are the major sources of acrylamide?
The major food sources of acrylamide include French fries, potato chips, baked goods, canned black olives and coffee. Levels vary depending on the manufacturer, cooking time and temperature.
Does acrylamide cause cancer?
Rodent studies have found that acrylamide exposure increases the risk for cancer, but at levels much higher than those seen in food. In the body acrylamide is converted to a compound called glycidamide, which causes DNA damage. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified acrylamide as a probable human carcinogen based on studies where subjects were exposed to 1,000 to 10,000 times higher dose than what is actually found in food. It is very likely that acrylamide in food is too low to influence the development of cancer.
How can I decrease the amount of acrylamide in food?
- Roasting and baking potatoes minimizes acrylamide formation. Acrylamide is not formed when potatoes are microwaved or boiled.
- Soaking raw potato slices in water for 15-30 minutes minimizes acrylamide formation during cooking.
- Storing potatoes in the refrigerator increases the amount of acrylamide formed during cooking.
- Greater amounts of acrylamide form when foods are cooked for longer periods of time. For example, toasting bread to a light brown color, rather than darker brown color, lowers the amount of acrylamide.
- Acrylamide is formed when coffee beans are roasted; scientists have not found ways to reduce acrylamide in coffee.
For additional information visit the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's website (click here).
One thought on "Acrylamide in Food and Risk of Cancer"
Would cold brewing reduce the level in coffee?

Young revolutionaries stood shoulder to shoulder with their elders as they paid tribute to the powerful influence of Poland's Solidarity movement at 25th anniversary ceremonies held to commemorate the birth of the Communist bloc's first independent trade union.
As brilliant sunshine lit the streets of Gdansk yesterday, Georgia's President, Mikhail Saakashvili, hailed the "second wave of Solidarity" that brought him to power in 2003. President Viktor Yushchenko, the leader of the orange revolution from neighbouring Ukraine, told the invited leaders: "Solidarity has become a road for everyone." The German President, Horst Kí¶hler, said: "Poles freed not just themselves, they launched a process which radiates until today. The fact Poland threw off the yoke of Communism led to the unification of Europe, led to a united Germany." Speakers marvelled that Solidarity had achieved regime change through dialogue between revolutionaries and tyrants, rather than force, and served as a model for the so-called rose, tulip, orange and cedar revolutions that have taken place in the former Soviet bloc and beyond during the past two years.
Poland's President, Aleksander Kwasnieswki, personifying the pragmatism of the Solidarity revolution that finally achieved victory in 1989 - he is a former supporter of the Soviet-backed regime turned democrat and capitalist - brought the memorial vividly into the present.
Motioning to another former Communist, Mr Yushchenko, Mr Kwasnieswki referred to the poison-scarred hero of the orange revolution as the latest to reap the rewards of the Solidarity legacy.
Mr Yushchenko in turn referred to Solidarity as a "banner of independence" that was "symbolic for the Ukrainian people". Mr Saakashvili added: "Solidarity was the best thing which happened in the 20th century."
But not everyone in Gdansk yesterday was ready to join the celebrations. "What we have in Poland today is not what my parents fought for," said a Gdansk city councillor, Grzegorz Sieletycki, who at 25 was born just days after Solidarity was created on 31 August 1980.
"Once we were the slaves of Moscow, now we are the slaves of Washington and Brussels. The workers fought Communism because they wanted honourable working conditions," he said. "Frankly, those working conditions have got worse, and there's no solidarity if Polish lawyers have to go and wash English dishes for want of work here."
Mr Sieletycki, a representative of a section of Polish youth frustrated with the harsh capitalism that Solidarity finally won for Poland, is a member of the right-wing League of Polish Families, and speaks with admiration of Margaret Thatcher.
Anna Walentynowicz, the Gdansk shipyard worker whose dismissal sparked the strike that Lech Walesa then led to form Solidarity, has staged a counter-commemoration, and maintains that Mr Walesa made too many compromises with Communists.
Lech Walesa, a former shipyard electrician, acknowledged during his speech at the site of a new European Solidarity Centre yesterday that "freedom came, but it is still hard to get bread."

Joshua 21:42-44
Wycliffe Bible
42 and all (these) cities were parted by families. (and all these cities were divided up among the families.)
43 And the Lord gave to Israel all the land that he swore himself to give to their fathers, and they had it in possession, and dwelled therein (and lived there).
44 And peace was given of the Lord into all nations about; and none of (their) enemies were hardy to withstand the sons of Israel, but all men were driven into their lordship. (And the Lord gave them peace with all the nations about; and none of their enemies was fool-hardy enough to stand against the Israelites, indeed, the Lord brought all these people under their rule.)Read full chapter
Joshua 21:42-44
New International Version
42 Each of these towns had pasturelands surrounding it; this was true for all these towns.
43 So the Lord gave Israel all the land he had sworn to give their ancestors,(A) and they took possession(B) of it and settled there.(C) 44 The Lord gave them rest(D) on every side, just as he had sworn to their ancestors. Not one of their enemies(E) withstood them; the Lord gave all their enemies(F) into their hands.(G)Read full chapter
Joshua 21:42-44
King James Version
42 These cities were every one with their suburbs round about them: thus were all these cities.
43 And the Lord gave unto Israel all the land which he sware to give unto their fathers; and they possessed it, and dwelt therein.
44 And the Lord gave them rest round about, according to all that he sware unto their fathers: and there stood not a man of all their enemies before them; the Lord delivered all their enemies into their hand.Read full chapter

Boots, live music and delicious chili are all expected to be seen this Sunday from 1 p.m. until 7 p.m. at Penny's at the Duke in Lake Worth as hundreds of people attend the Fourth Annual Gay Chili Cook Off, a benefit for Compass' LGBT youth group.
The Lake Worth City Commission brought conversion therapy to the table at their Dec. 13 meeting, a vote that was possible thanks to the efforts of the Palm Beach County Human Rights Council (PBCHRC) as well as the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) and the National Center for Lesbian Rights (NCLR).
Compass is a community center in Lake Worth specializing in vital services, programs and events for LGBTQ people and our allies. An important part of our focus is bringing people together for a common purpose.
No decision has been made on who will fill the spot of Tony Plakas, the former CEO of Compass.
In recent times it seems entirely impossible to find adults reading, much less children.
At First Congregational United Church of Christ in Lake Worth, we begin our worship service with the words, "No matter who you are or where you are on life's journey, you are welcome here."
On Sunday, Mar 23, between 150 and 200 people gathered at the front steps of Lake Worth City Hall to encourage state legislators to overturn anti-gay legislation and a constitutional amendment denying same sex couples the right to marry in Florida.
The Lake Worth City Commission passed a resolution, 4-0, Tuesday night urging all members of the Florida legislature to support the Florida Inclusive Workforce Act.
Late Monday evening, hundreds of members from the Lake Worth community gathered to mourn the lives that were lost this past weekend in Orlando.
Andy Amoroso, the first openly-gay City Commissioner in Palm Beach County (Lake Worth, District 4) announced that the city will take up the banner of marriage equality for LGBT Floridians with a demonstration on March 23 at 2 p.m. on the steps of Lake Worth City Hall at 7 N. Dixie Highway.
National Latinx AIDS Awareness Day (NLAAD) is coming to Compass in Lake Worth for the first time ever.
Last year, Kataleya Davenport Dupree took home the title of Miss Palm Beach Pride, a title that comes along with being one of the faces of Palm Beach Pride and other Palm Beach County events throughout the year. And on Monday, a new one will be crowned.
Rev. Fred Gray remembers the time before the AIDS Quilt and all the progress that has been made since it was first stitched 30 years ago. Now, he hopes that bringing the AIDS Quilt to his church, United Church of Christ Fort Lauderdale, will be one small stitch in preventing an unraveling of the progress woven so far.
Penny Johnson is having a party and says you and your fabulous cowboys and cowgirls are invited. This Sunday, join her for a country good ole time at the second annual Gay Chili Cook-Off. All the fun and madness will go down at her venue, Penny's at the Duke, a bar occupying the former Duke Lounge off Dixie Highway.
Robert Thompson, a suspect in the death of Stanley Parrales, has been arrested and charged with second degree murder.
An SFGN investigation has revealed that law enforcement officers in Palm Beach County are stopping men and questioning them in at least one public park with no legal basis to do so.

I had always assumed that Night Shifts were about endurance and energy. Kind of like a "no pain, no gain" scenario where you throw yourself at the task and hope to get through it. Coffee, massive amounts of sugar and possibly a pro plus or two. This, however, is something that I'm assured is very, very stupid, for a number of reasons:
- Surviving night shift is in fact about preparation and planning. Getting strategic naps in, making sure you're eating right, and avoiding anything which messes too much with your system – like caffeine.
- Also, pro plus does strange and horrific things to my digestion. Like, if inexpertly used, I basically recreate the exorcist except with without any crucifix abuse and yoga moves. But the mood swings, explosive vomiting and the terrible, terrible rage – all there.
- You can't just throw yourself into a marathon, so why would you think you can do the same for something like this? You need training, preparation, and a few practice runs. To that end, I've been staying up late the last two nights and thinking about the vital equipment I'll need to make it through.
So far, I've gathered together the following essential items:
- biscuits
- green tea
- bananas
- lemon and honey
- a batch of Kardemomme Snurrer or scandinavian cardamom buns
I'm certain that this is all going to help.
Follow the fun @lewishambles from 5pm tonight, using the hashtag #SimNight
