In about 10 minutes, congregants rotate padded metal chairs and turn the place where they just praised God into a dining room to enjoy dishes like kimchi, spicy potato soup and frosted cake (for February birthday celebrants) at tables with both chopsticks and forks.
But their spot-on sanctuary-to-supper transition ends in September. The roughly 90 worshippers at Savannah Korean United Methodist Church will step into their long-awaited sanctuary, a $605,000 building, and merge two morning Sunday services into one.
"This is a really special moment for us," says Kay Sugiura, a longtime member. "Twenty-five years we've been waiting."
'Remember this day'
Congregants stood in a circle for prayer afterward at the Feb. 25 groundbreaking, where many flicked bulletins against sand gnats and afternoon heat.
"Remember this day," said Coastal District Superintendent Wayne Moseley. He called it a pivotal time for the Korean Christians.
The Savannah Korean UMC met in 1982 at Isle of Hope Methodist Church before moving to Whitefield Avenue about 25 years ago. They built a classroom and social hall, but thrice failed to construct a sanctuary.
"Finally, we all got together," Sugiura says.
Money and disagreements caused delays. Also, older congregants didn't think a sanctuary was financially wise. But they're building for the next generation, too, according to Sugiura.
Comfort for the homesick
In the '80s, the church was a haven for homesick Korean-speaking Christians, some young and married to American soldiers.
There were no Korean restaurants or Korean markets in Savannah at that time, Sugiura says. But after church, people stayed to speak their mother tongue and savor Korean fare.
Being together helped Wha Tina Cruz, a young bride in 1988 who had married a U.S. airman stationed in Korea.
"Still does," Cruz says. "They are more like a family."
Cultures come together
Besides chopsticks and forks at meals, diverse culture is obvious with the display of American, Korean and Christian flags, a woman's Korean-English Bible and the pastor's flow between Korean and English words during the service.
It's a little difficult to go back and forth, according to the Rev. Jin-Won Park, who credits three translators for the English displayed on a large screen during prayers, songs and the sermon.
Most congregants are first-generation Korean speakers who also speak English, according to Park, whose wife, Joo Park, teaches Korean language classes after church for beginners and intermediates.
Her roughly 20 students range from pre-school age to much older, such as Sugiura's Japanese husband, who is 76.
Among the smattering of military husbands in the congregation, ("the American brothers," according to Sugiura), Chris Franklin says the language shift isn't a problem. He understands some Korean from his wife, and says God also gives understanding.
The faithful
Cultural differences blend under a greater focus that brings congregants to the church throughout the week.
About 25 gather for pre-dawn prayer at 6 a.m. every Tuesday through Saturday.
It helps, says Sue Young of Bluffton, who wakes up around 4 a.m. to make the gathering. "When you come early in the morning and pray to God, a lot of things happen," she says.
Kyu O. Swartz, 82, expands upon the church services in her own way.
The choir member, wearing a burgundy-trimmed robe, places a hand-sized black recorder on the floor before they sing. She captures the songs and sermon. "It's beautiful, you know," says South Korean-born Swartz, who moved to Savannah in 1971.
She plays the recording at home, and sings along in the mornings. "I don't have a good voice, but [it's] for the God," she says, pointing upward.
Almighty God
Before the groundbreaking, Park preached that God provides for his children as described in the book of Matthew. People replied "Amen" when he said God was unchanging.
The vision of longtime parishioners seems unchanging also.
"Over 20 years, our church members had a dream of the sanctuary," said Park, who chose a closing hymn about "Almighty God" to encourage congregants to step forward with the building in faith.
"God will help, and God will assist and God will support us," Park said afterward.

26 May Red Iguana Menu Design
The incredible and eclectic Red Iguana (home of the best mole I have ever tasted) asked us to design new menus for them. The food menu would need a redesigned cover, and the drinks and dessert menu would become a booklet of its own and would need custom design throughout. Lucy requested something fun for the Drinks and dessert menu cover, and wanted it to have an iguana scurrying around a drinks glass or similar. She explained other elements that were important to her and Bill to be a part of the menu design, like the smoke stacks and train near the Red Iguana 2 location.
I got to designing and worked closely with Lucy and her dining room manager Jeff to ensure accuracy and consistency through the menus. Lucy invited me to take photographs of some of their signature drinks to feature in the menu. My husband came to assist, and Lucy surprised us with a dinner on the house after the shoot was over. The food was of course, delicious, and we were extremely grateful and pleased. It was such a neat experience designing for these very cool people and this very cool brand, and it leaves me again grateful for collaborations. Working with clients always guides me to create something much better than had I been given no direction or assignment to begin with.

Arthritis refers to the inflammation of one or more of your joints. Pain, stiffness and difficulty moving joints and bones are characteristic of this joint disorder. There are more than 100 different types of arthritis and, according to statistics, this unpleasant condition affects more than 50 million Americans.
Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis that affects the population. This form of arthritis occurs when the cartilage between the bones and the joints begins to wear out. Made from collagen and other proteins, the cartilage offers a cushion to the ends of the bones. It also helps the connective tissue to be flexible and strong. Once the breakdown of the cartilage occurs, the loss of protection and cushioning causes the bones to rub against each other. Soon it becomes increasingly painful and difficult to perform simple and everyday tasks.
Another common type of arthritis is rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This form of arthritis occurs as a result of chronic inflammation, which then causes the immune system to attack the joints and other parts of the body.
Arthritis can cause a series of complications. These include bone death, stress fractures and bleeding within the joints.
What are the causes of arthritis?
Experts are not completely sure exactly what causes arthritis. However, they agree that degenerative joint disease usually occurs as a result of a combination of genetic and lifestyle factors.
Existing medical conditions
Diabetes, an autoimmune disorder and metabolic disorders can increase the risk of arthritis.
According to the World Journal of Orthopedics reports, people who are battling osteoarthritis may have a genetic defect that affects the production of collagen. In addition, other people may also have genes that can result in mild malformations of the bones and joints.
The infections
Some infections produce organisms that can cause inflammation of the joints and tissues.
Food poisoning and contamination involve salmonella and shigella. Both of these organisms have been linked to joint infections. In addition, sexually transmitted diseases, particularly gonorrhea, have also been linked to joint pain and inflammation.
Any form of trauma or injury to the joints can trigger the Deterioration of the cartilage. In addition, during training and the exclusion of rest days you can also do the same.
Bad intestinal health
Intestinal health is incredibly important for our general well-being. Therefore, any alteration in the delicate balance of intestinal bacteria can cause serious health problems. On the one hand, a study published in the eLife magazine found a link between intestinal microbes and Rheumatoid arthritis.
Obesity or overweight increase your risk of arthritis because excess weight puts extra pressure on your joints. The CDC found that while one in five Americans has been diagnosed with arthritis, the number increases to more than one in three among obese people (1).
Symptoms of arthritis
The most common symptoms include:
- Decreased range of motion
- Loss of flexibility

Arthritis is treated conventionally by rheumatologists. They usually prescribe pharmaceutical medications that are aimed at controlling pain. These medications are known as analgesics and the most common include percocet, darvocet, oxycontin, duragesic and acetaminophen. They help relieve pain by blocking receptors in nerve cells. However, they do not help to treat inflammation.

It is advisable to do 40-60 minutes of water exercise three times a week.
Another low-impact exercise that can help improve the symptoms of arthritis is tai chi. This ancient discipline is easy for the joints and helps improve flexibility and muscle strength.
Black pepper
Black pepper contains the composite pipe. This compound is not only responsible for providing black pepper with its strong flavor, but also possesses Anti-inflammatory and pain-reducing effects.

Omega-3 fatty acids
Omega-3 fatty acids, found in nuts, seeds and extra virgin olive oil, can help reduce inflammation and, as a result, studies have linked them to improving the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (6). ).
Additionally, Extra virgin olive oil contains a compound called oleocanthal, which, according to a 2014 study, also helps to decrease inflammation.
A staple in Ayurvedic medicine, turmeric is an extremely effective anti-inflammatory herb, particularly with regard to a particularly effective compound: curcumin.
A Study 2012 found that turmeric supplements helped relieve symptoms in people battling rheumatoid arthritis.
Yoga is associated with a number of health benefits, one of them is its ability to relieve joint pain and improve flexibility.

I Create The Life I Desire – Part 1 of 2
Today I choose to create my new life.
I create new beginnings and new opportunities for my advancement in life; continually renewing my mind with positive uplifting thoughts to reveal new pathways for wonderful successes in life.
Opportunities are all around us. When we are in a positive frame of mind and open to newness our vision expands enabling us to see the opportunities before us and allows us to act on them or not. Opportunity is always knocking at our door, but, it requires us to take action on it; knock on doors, attend networking functions, make calls, send e-mails or letters, meet with someone over coffee or invite someone to lunch to discuss our product/idea/talent/ability, or a thing we call, "a chance meeting," which is really an effect from changing our thoughts, ideas, beliefs concerning the situation. If we are in a query about an opportunity best to step back, look at it and follow our intuitive lead. Do not rush things into existence. The more we push to make something happen the more likely it is to fall apart. Let things unfold naturally; this does not mean no action. A bit of Zen, it is in our inaction that action exists, it allows us to look, listen and learn from what is going on around us; which can be a key to taking a profitable and successful detour.
I create today the life I desire by the renewing of my mind and by loving and accepting myself unconditionally.
When we feel good about ourselves it radiates to the world around us as self-confidence and self-worth; it then follows that we are drawn to the people, places and things from which an opportunity or opportunities are born. Loving ourselves and accepting ourselves for who we are makes us confident in our dealings with others. It is what we think about ourselves that is important sans egotism. When we are secure in ourselves we have a wonderful self-perception that no one can blot out.
I create a new life of health, wealth, money, harmony, well-being, success, prosperity, abundance and bountiful good.
Our attitude toward our life and situation is extremely important. In order to move forward into the life we desire it requires us to know we are, here and now, worthy of good health, wealth, as much money as we can conceive of as being in our life, well-being in all areas of our life, being as successful and prosperous as we desire. We are the only ones who can decide on how much of any good thing is to be in our life. It cannot be that of another…each of us must follow our own inner drive to the life we desire to live. As we experience life it is always good to listen to information shared by others and utilize that which we can…never pooh, pooh an idea for it just may be the catalyst to greater opportunities for success.
This concludes Part 1 of 2

Fallopian Tube Cancer
Every woman has two fallopian tubes; these are fine tubular structures, which connect ovaries to the uterus (womb). During a woman's childbearing years, the ovaries produce an egg each month. The egg travels through the fallopian tubes to reach the womb. Cancer of the fallopian tubes is an abnormal growth of malignant cells in one or both of a woman's fallopian tubes. Ovarian, fallopian tube and primary peritoneal cancer have similar clinical presentation and have similar staging and treatment.
- Risk increases with age
- Obesity or being overweight
- Risk is slightly higher in women who have not had children and in women who have had early menarche (first menstruation) and late menopause
- If there is family history of ovarian or breast cancer (genetic BRCA1 and BRCA2). 1% of ovarian cancers may be due to hereditary
- Pain in the tummy
- Abdominal swelling.
- Swollen abdomen
- Feeling full even with small meal
- Loss of appetite
- Loss of weight
- Watery discharge sometimes could be blood tinged
- Sudden gush of watery discharge
- Frequency of passing urine
- Constipation
- 1. To confirm the diagnosis
- Doctor will usually do a vaginal examination (internal examination) if you have symptoms that may possibly be like
cervical cancer.
- Doctor will usually do a vaginal examination (internal examination) if you have symptoms that may possibly be like
- 2. Assessing the extent and spread
- Once you have been diagnosed then further tests may be advised to assess if the cancer has spread to other organs such as, an ultrasound scan, a CT scan, PET CT an MRI scan, a chest X-ray, blood tests like CA125 tumor marker or other tests.
- This assessment is called staging of the cancer, done to asses the extent of the spread and to know the stage.
- If your tummy is swollen with fluid (called ascites) of mass, you may be advised to have this fluid drained or have biospy of the mass. This is usually done with the help of ultrasound (ultrasound guidance). The removed fluid or biopsy of the mass may be checked for cancer cells.
- Surgery is the mainstay of treatment. The type of surgery will depend on the stage of cancer and age of the patient.
- Guideline is to remove womb with cervix (total hysterectomy), both ovaries and fallopian tubes (bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy), fatty apron near the stomach (omentum) and fatty tissue (lymph glands) and to remove all the visible tumor, this surgery is known as cytoreductive surgery (CRS). There are various surgical treatment for ovarian cancer depending on the stage of the cancer and other considerations. Aim of the surgery is – not gross tumor left behind.
- When the cancer is in advance stages, you may be advised to have neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) to shrink the tumor and then go for CRS.
- Chemotherapy
- In chemotherapy treatment drugs are used to kill or slow the growth of cancerous cells. It's usually given through an IV injection.
Though fallopian tube cancer is not preventable, women can lower the risk by having children or with hormonal birth control. Women with the BRCA1 gene or a family history of this cancer should be monitored closely. Some women with genetic abnormalities choose to have a prophylactic removal of the ovaries and fallopian tubes.
- You should strictly follow-up with your doctor as per their advice.
- In addition to receiving treatment for cervical cancer your success of treatment will depend only when you have regular follow-up.

Abstract to the table of contents
Community organizing, community development and community building are just a few of the names applied to the various attempts to spur participatory community change at the local level in distressed communities. Despite several decades of well documented and conscientious field work with various forms of community intervention, there remains much confusion over the distinguishing features of these various approaches to community change and, hence, confusion over the varying outcomes these approaches engender.
As concern over the persistence of poverty continues, foundations, local governments and other entities are launching a new set of interventions collectively called Comprehensive Community Initiatives (CCI). Adherents of the CCI model contend that coordinating several service and development approaches while adding a more participatory process for planning this coordination and its content will tackle what appears to be the nearly intractable problems of poverty. However, without a firmer grasp of the characteristic features and outcomes of the various forms of community practice, these new initiatives do not appear to be as comprehensive as supporters claim. Without an appreciation of the differences between approaches to community change, a truly holistic approach to tackling poverty will elude practitioners and communities.
Preface to the table of contents
"People tend to work with three different models in this field, and they tend to think their model is the only one that works. One is the collaborative model, where you bring all the different stakeholders together under the assumption that they all have some common interest at heart, and they all want to do the right thing, and they'll come together and do it and everybody will be happy. Then there's the professional planners model, where you bring together experts and planners to analyze the problem and come up with solutions. And because it's all so logical and rational, everybody is going to agree to it and march off to do what's right. Then you've got the conflict model, where the assumption is that the haves and the have-nots possess diametrically opposed interests, and if the have-nots are ever going to get anything from the haves, it will only be through conflict and struggle.
"But very few people realize you need all three models to make change. And if I could go back and start over . . . I'd have been much clearer up front about the importance of using all three models, and reconciling them."
I would like thank those teachers, colleagues and others who have taught me, formally and informally, over the past three decades: from Iowa to Haiti to Brooklyn, Little Rock, the District of Columbia, Baltimore and all the places in between. I am sure I was a difficult student and apprentice so I appreciate their commitment. In particular, thanks to my parents for their loving support and for their life long commitment to teaching as a way of bettering the world. Special thanks to my classmates at the Institute for Policy Studies at the Johns Hopkins University (particularly Barbara Dannhausen), my instructors and directors (especially Drs. Stefan Toepler, Helmut Anheier, and Lester Salamon). Finally, thanks to the fellowship of community change activists, organizers and innovators I have worked with and for over the past decade.

A sustainably healthy lifestyle involves several components. You eat right, exercise when you have spare time and try to make sure you relax and manage your stress levels. Another fundamental aspect that you may not consider as much as you should is proper posture.
Whether at home or work, your postural habits can have detrimental effects on your health. With proper posture, you can feel a higher level of comfort, less pain and joint stiffness, greater focus, more energy and better self-confidence.
Caretaking Your Body Throughout the Day
Though you may have had bad posture for years, it's never too late to make impactful changes. There are a few simple tips to keep in mind that will ensure proper alignment:
Head and neck:Keep your eyes looking forward, parallel to the horizon. Your ears should be aligned over your shoulders with no rounding of your spine.
Shoulders: Keep your shoulders relaxed, free of tension and not rolled forward. They should be balanced on the left and right and aligned with the pelvis.
Lumbar spine: Contract your core muscles with your hips aligned under the shoulders. Your lumbar spine can be further enhanced with a cushion while seated to support the spine's natural curves. Your weight should be balanced evenly over both feet and your hips while standing.
Hips: Your hips should align with your shoulders, with weight spread equally over your left and right sides. When seated, your pelvis should be at the back of the chair and your core muscles contracted to stand or shift.
Core: Use your core muscles when switching positions. Contract your navel towards the spine for an instantly straighter posture.
Lower extremities: Avoid shifting your weight from side to side so that your muscles stay equally activated. Avoid crossing your legs when sitting.
Upper extremities: Avoid excessive reaching. Your workspace should be organised with mouse and keyboard at elbow height with your arms close to the center of your body and wrists held in a neutral position.
Feet: Get shoes that have proper arch support and fit snugly without being tight. Keep in mind that high heels or pointed shoes usually have poor support.

Just thought I would update things on this thread. I got so over it that I went back to see my doctor. I brought up the D&C thing, which he thought was overkill, but I went away and thought about it for a while. Then I got speaking to Divvy one night chatting about things and something unrelated she said twigged with me, I decided I would go back to the doctor and ask to go onto the pill for a short time. I hate the pill, but I hate heavy, irregular periods more. I would sometimes get them a week early etc which was not fun, especially a week early on the day we arrived in Vanuatu, for our January holiday I was so upset as I wanted to swim heaps.
Anyway, I have been on the pill for one cycle and I am really, really wrapped. Using super tampons (and/or super pads) is overkill... I don't need them anymore. It's been heaps more managable and this cycle also co-incided with the arrival of some bamboo velour pads I ordered so I was able to try them out in case I had probs with my cycle still. So yeah, about to start my second cycle and really happy with the outcome. I just hope when I stop the pill everything will be fixed!!! Don't like taking things like the pill, prefer to be au naturale

The facts:
- The emergency department is the main gateway to the hospital
- The emergency department typically accounts for:
- 50% of inpatient admissions
- 75% of plain radiographs
- 50% of CT scans and ultrasounds in the entire hospital
- In addition, as the 'front door' to the hospital, the emergency department not only drives flow, but it drives the patients' perception of flow
Prolonged waiting times and delays in the emergency department are a whole of hospital issue, not just the ED. Timely access to appropriate care is prevented by operational inefficiencies, negatively impacting patient experience and increasing patient dissatisfaction.
Though many hospitals understand this problem, few have strategies to address it in a consistent and reliable manner. Instead, many are forced to throw more people at the problem without much improvement.
Operational inefficiency is challenging. Hardwiring the hospital transitions of care will result in improved operational performance without overloading front line teams.
It is important though, to remember that improving something doesn't mean it's easy to sustain. Process improvement is an ongoing endeavour. It requires a culture and mindset of consistent attention.
Fast track
In an emergency department with 30,000 presentations per year or more, Category 4 & 5 patients constitute up to 55% of presentations.
The majority of these patients are low acuity and can be seen in Fast Track. They have minor injuries that require simple investigations, e.g. ankle x-ray or no lab work at all.
Those patients can be seen quickly and discharged from the ED, thus improving efficiency. Nurse Practitioners work very well in this area.
ED – Inpatient conflict resolution
Emergency Medicine physicians and inpatient specialists are charged with the same goals, to provide the best care for their patients at all times.
However it is not uncommon to find the two groups working antagonistically due to conflicting priorities.
To beat the 4-hour rule, the ED needs to move the patients through rapidly while the inpatient team would like to manage their inpatient LOS respectively.
The fundamental answer to this ED/Inpatient conflict is seeing the issue from each other's perspective. A well-coordinated and collaborative approach will help resolve the conflicts and improve patient care.
Jointly develop guidelines for specific areas of concern
One of the most contentious points in the ED/Inpatient relationship is the decision on when patients leave the ED and where they will go.
NEAT aims at either discharging, transferring or admitting patients within 4 hours – an important Key Performance Indicator.
Inpatient specialists have a different perspective: seeing patients early in the day to discharge them before noon, to have beds available for new patients coming from the ED.
Some pushback is expected from the inpatient specialists as they find themselves trapped between seeing existing patients, discharging them as soon as medically appropriate and being informed there are new patients for admission in the ED, especially when they haven't completed their ward rounds.
Not forgetting that inpatient specialists can disrupt negotiations.
The solution lies in establishing jointly developed guidelines and protocols. Leaders from inpatient and ED teams must come together and determine the criteria for Direct Admission Policies.
Criterion's series of Health conferences cover topics including Patient Flow, Emergency Departments, Infection Prevention, Hospital Safety & Security and more. View upcoming events here.

*These authors contributed equally to this work.BackgroundDJ-1 is an antioxidant protein known to reduce levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), but its presence or function in mast cells and allergic diseases is unknown.
ObjectivesWe sought to determine the role and mechanism of DJ-1 in allergic responses in vitro and in vivo.
MethodsROS and DJ-1 levels in serum or culture medium were measured with ELISA kits. The role of DJ-1 was evaluated in mast cell cultures and passive cutaneous anaphylaxis in normal or DJ-1 knockout (KO) mice. The mechanism of DJ-1 action was examined by using immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation, RT-PCR, and other molecular biological approaches.
ResultsPatients with atopic dermatitis had increased levels of ROS and diminished levels of DJ-1. DJ-1 KO mice exhibited enhanced passive cutaneous anaphylaxis and augmented ROS levels in sera and bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs). Furthermore, antigen-induced degranulation and production of TNF-α and IL-4 were significantly amplified in DJ-1 KO and anti-DJ-1 small interfering RNA-transfected BMMCs compared with that seen in wild-type (WT) BMMCs. Studies with these cells and BMMCs transfected with small interfering RNAs against the phosphatases Src homology domain 2-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase (SHP) 1 and SHP-2 revealed that the DJ-1 KO phenotype could be attributed to suppression of SHP-1 activity and enhancement of SHP-2 activity, leading to strengthened signaling through linker for activation of T cells, phospholipase Cγ, and mitogen-activated protein kinases.
ConclusionsA deficiency or constitutive activation of DJ-1 can have implications in mast cell-driven allergic diseases, such as asthma and anaphylaxis.
Key words: DJ-1, reactive oxygen species, mast cells, allergy, FcεRI-mediated signals

There have been a number of strong reactions from around the country since Friday, when the Department of Education and the Justice Department issued a guidance concerning transgender students access to school facilities and programs. The direction cause regarding bathroom access caused a particular reaction.
Public schools were directed to allow transgender students to use bathrooms matching their gender identity. The letter is not legally binding but the message was clear. Any school that ignores it risks losing federal funding. It immediately drew criticism from conservatives nationwide. Here's North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory on ALL THINGS CONSIDERED yesterday. Gov. McCrory signed a bill in March requiring people in public schools and government buildings in his state to use bathrooms corresponding to their biological sex.
PAT MCCRORY: I don't think the president has the authority by himself to make that decision because it's not just a matter of civil rights. It's also a matter of privacy.
MARTIN: Some of the harshest criticism came from Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick.
DAN PATRICK: He can keep his 30 pieces of silver. We will not yield to blackmail from the president of the United States.
MARTIN: White House press secretary Josh Earnest responded to Patrick's accusations at a press briefing on Friday.
JOSH EARNEST: Well, I think this is does underscore the risk of electing a right-wing radio host to a statewide elected office.
MARTIN: He was referring to the fact that Lt. Gov. Patrick used to host a local radio show in Houston.
EARNEST: So let's just walk through the facts here. The guidance does not add additional requirements to the applicable law. This is not an enforcement action. This is in response to extensive requests for guidance and for information and advice that have been put forward by school administrators and teachers and in some cases even parents.
MARTIN: Earnest said the use of the word transgender from the podium of the White House briefing room could be a sign of the changing political reality around transgender issues.
EARNEST: There was some discussion about whether or not the word transgender had ever been uttered from the White House podium before. And I think that's a pretty apt illustration of how this debate is changing and has emerged.
So it's new to our political debate, but this is not new when you consider what school administrators have had to do to ensure the safety and security of every student at their school. They're looking for solutions. And solutions are exactly what were provided by the Department of Education in their letter today.

Olivia's Dance Performance
Year 12 student, Olivia Pickford, has just completed her Extended Project entitled 'My Mental Self'. This is particularly relevant as the theme for the school year is 'mindfulness and well-being '.
Olivia undertook primary research to see how 'mental health' manifests itself and she decided to represent her findings in a dance performance that she choreographed herself.
The dance piece depicts how social media affects the lives of teenage girls and how it can manifest itself in body dysmorphia, anxiety and the notion of having two personas – one face to face and one online. The dance is set in a studio with weights and boxing equipment that acts as a metaphor for the personal fight and burden placed upon young people today.
Olivia has put a lot of hard work into her dance performance and we wish her the best of luck with her qualification.
We look forward to the Extended Project Research evening on 27th June in the LRC at 4.00pm.

In D.C., a Street's Grit Gives Way to Glamour (New York Times) Tall cranes dot the sky along 14th Street N.W., hovering above half-finished high rises that are replacing vacant lots and low-slung buildings. In the next 24 months, virtually every block in a one-mile stretch of 14th is slated to gain a new or renovated building containing residential units and ground-floor retail space.
High vacancy rates in N.Va. does not bode well for Silver Line (Washington Examiner) Metro stations attract economic development like flowers attract bees -- or so we are told by proponents of transit-oriented development. With this argument, skeptical supervisors in Loudoun County are being urged to commit their constituents to an estimated $713 million in debt over the next 30 years by signing on to Phase 2 of Dulles Rail.
Flood of Foreclosures Still Fails to Materialize (CNBC) The number of homes entering the foreclosure process rose in March, up 8.1 percent, according to a new report from lender Processing Services, but the volume is down more than 30 percent from a year ago.
Skanska to sell Washington, D.C., property for $140M (Market Watch) Swedish construction company Skanska AB said Wednesday it is selling its first development property in the US, an office property in Washington, D.C., for $140 million to Jamestown Properties.

Oh good grief, the Examiner.
Can we take seriously someone wondering why New Carrolton hasn't drawn TOD? Er, design MATTERS. And someone who focuses only on commercial property and not on residential?
Anyone expect the Examiner will tout the declining employment base next time the Outer Beltway is proposed?

Amba Launches E-Medical App To Reduce Mortality Rate In Nigeria
An e-medical transport mobile app that will reduce about two million avoidable deaths in the country has been unveiled in Abuja. The app, known as Amba, is an emergency response aggregator and alert system
An e-medical transport mobile app that will reduce about two million avoidable deaths in the country has been unveiled in Abuja. The app, known as Amba, is an emergency response aggregator and alert system which delivers real-time medical alerts to doctors-on-call with a view to shortening response time and providing patients with emergency care at the knick of time.
Speaking at the unveiling ceremony on Tuesday, Dr. Adejobi Adeloye, the founder of Doctors On Call Health Support Initiative, developers of the app, said the Amba was designed to help bridge the emergency medical gap in the country through the services of a pool of first aiders, healthcare workers, ambulance owners, firefighters, emergency aid workers, and drivers registered on the platform.
He said: "Most patients die because they don't have the medical professionals to take care of them at the point of injury or at the point of entry into the hospitals. "We felt that once there is an alert system or a platform that can deliver medical alerts to a doctor-on-call platform, the response time was going to be shortened whereby patients can have relevant attention given them at the knick of time; thus, reducing the number of avoidable deaths in Nigeria especially among pregnant women and those in displaced communities. "It is a mobile app that enables people to live independently without having to go to a healthcare facility.
Quite a number of sick people in some communities have little or no access to healthcare facilities. So, with the app being flexible and user-friendly, all they need to do is just tap a button on their phones and it will send an alert to a central server; then, it will send their name, geo-tagging and an 'I Need Help' message to the doctor-on-call platform, and a doctor will contact the patient or patients. "The convention in Nigeria is for patients to hospitals.
Right now, we want it to be two-way whereby you either go to the hospital or the hospital comes to you." Dr Adeloye, who said the initiative targets about two million Nigerians, also noted that it incorporates a taxi service which seeks to provide employment for teeming Nigerians while improving the overall emergency response gap in the country.


text: I am kind of in the intermediate range of photography and am looking to improve. What I need right now are better light sources for portraiture and maybe some wedding photography. My current (continuous) lights are just not bright enough. I am having a hard time deciding whether I should go with continuous lights or strobes. I feel more comfortable with continuous (due to the what you see is what you get aspect) lights, but I am willing to switch to strobe lights if that is what is best. I have some continuous light heads that I could put some higher watt bulbs in to produce more light, but since the bulbs are fairly spendy themselves, I'd like to make the smartest decision and if I'm going to start going with strobes, I'd rather just spend my money there instead of replacing the bulbs now and then spending a few hundred more soon on other lights. Any insight would be much appreciated. And if anyone knows of any specific lights that would work well that would be fantastic (ie what wattage or watt seconds).

Looks like my [L]Ubuntu 14.10 host is kinda "resistent" to x11vnc: another of these nasty problems is the block-screen. The default package (for this task) has recently changed to light-locker; it turns out that, as a side-effect, light-locker switches current VT to something else, (I guess) VT8, (where default Xorg/X11 session is usually in VT7).
The problem is, this behavior breaks remoting, since -doing so- it makes impossible for x11vnc (running in VT7) to remote the lock-screen in VT8(?). Of course you still could unlock the session from local (and then you'd find x11vnc still there), but … who cares?! (If we needed vnc, there must be a reason!)
To fix that, you just have to remove light-locker and get back to something more classic (e.g.: xscreensaver), so the fix is:
sudo apt-get purge light-locker
sudo apt-get install xscreensaver

Studying aeronautical engineering in Belarus will be a perfect decision for international students for 2020-2021 intake.We must know that what this engineering area is about actually.
As we all know that today long distances are covered by air travel normally and different means are used with respect to distances.
Normally a country to country a fast travel is covered by airplanes and some other air sources.
For example if we are travelling by car to some other city or within city even we must have a well maintained vehicle and these engineering who maintain the auto are called automobile engineers.
Just like that the engineering who maintain the airplanes are called aeronautical engineers.
In the today world aeronautical engineers play a very major role in the air industry as without them no air industry will survive.
These engineers are required in every country of the world and have a huge value otherwise the world may drive back to the stone age when people traveled days or month to reach their destinations.
These aeronautical engineers are paid very high salaries anywhere in government or private sector.
So we now know that what actually an aeronautical engineer is and what is his/her job.
There are no diploma programs for aeronautical engineering in the world as this profession is highly sensitive.
This course is normally taught at engineering colleges and universities for degree programs only.
Belarus prepare the best aeronautical engineers may say in the world as Belarus has best aviation colleges and highly professional teaching staff.
This course in Belarus is taught at Belarusian State Academy of Aviation in Minsk for foreign students.
Once you have decided to study your aviation program in Belarus we assure you that you will never regret your decision in your practical life.
According to admission process international students has to scan us their secondary school certificate with international passport copy for eligibility assessment.This assessment takes 1-2 days and the applicant is informed about his/her eligibility or ineligibility.
Eligible applicants than transfer the processing fee for their official study invitation and once we receive the complete requirements,The processing time is 2 weeks.
International students no matter which college or university they are studying are provided on payment students hostels where they live in sharing rooms.
A room is normally shared by 3 students and all hostels are having complete facilities at students hostels.
Students may buy their food staff and cook at hostels as all the hostels no matter for national or international students are having kitchens where they may cook their country food.
There are a lot of foreign hotels or cafes where also their country food available but it costs more than the self cooked food at hostel so choice is always with students.
International students come from almost every country to study their aeronautical engineering in Belarus but most of the students come from African and Asian countries like Nigeria,Ghana,India,Zimbabwe,Pakistan,Sri Lanka etc etc and some from Latin America too.
International students interested in study this course in Belarus for 2020-2021 intake may write us anytime today for a fast processing of their admission right now.

I just got my new title moments ago—The Secret Mistress Arrangement. It has a January 2009 UK release date!
Monday, May 12th, 2008
I'm still flying high from the news of my first sale to Harlequin Mills and Boon. (You can read my call story and celebration here, here, or here.) All the M&B authors have been fabulous—sending congrats and welcoming me into the fold. Writers really are the nicest people. I still can't believe I'm actually going to be published! I also can't believe all the things I have to do…including get started on my next book!


text: Listen, I know Tim Tebow really, really wants to perform qb, but listen to me out. Tim Tebow: operating returning.While enjoying Madden NFL 16, I observed if you modify Tebow's place to halfback, he generates a substantial push in his overall ranking.Madden uses a variety of 0-100 but generally regular gamers variety in the mid-70s. So rather than Tebow being a mediocre qb with a ranking of 68, he becomes a mid-tier operating returning with a ranking of 75. Madden 16 coinsAt 6-foot-3 and 236 weight, he would be a big discoloration energy returning. Think Peyton Hillis without the preventing abilty. His 83 durability is rated near the best among RBs, as is his football service provider perspective (95), which is linked with companies Eddie Delicate, DeMarco Murray and Darren Sproles.To analyze this concept, I required to indication the 100 % free broker to a group. So why not the Broncos? Denver's in need of some detail at the place and Tebow's ranking was No. 2 between C.J. Anderson and Ronnie Hillman. But I'm creating him the beginner, you know, for technology. And sorry, Kyle Williams, but we're going to need that No. 15 shirt returning.To create it reasonable, every activity was simulated and accidents converted off (I mean, studying about Tebow seated on the regular after getting harm after 7 days 1 would be extremely dull).

The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is part of the body's central nervous and immune systems. It plays an active role in managing how we feel regarding things like appetite, pain, mood, memory and general homeostasis. It involves molecular receptors (CB1 and CB2) located throughout the body, which are stimulated by cannabinoids.
- Endocannabinoids are produced by the body
- Phytocannabinoids are naturally-occurring in cannabis plants
Each cannabinoid reacts differently with the ECS, resulting in a variety of different effects when introduced into our system. For example, CBD has been linked to pain relief because of its anti-inflammatory properties, much like THC has been linked to feelings of euphoria.
The ECS is closely tied to just about every natural control system within our bodies, such as internal temperature, nerve simulation and even coordination. This is why cannabinoids like CBD can be effective for pain relief and why others like THC can leave us feeling disoriented and "high."
Because different cannabinoids affect the ECS differently, there are different CBD products formulated to target it. CBD isolate, for example, may be taken by people who only want to experience pain relief, whereas a full-spectrum product may be better for others who want the full "entourage effect" of all major cannabinoids and terpenes.

Parents have often wished: "It would be great if children came with an instruction book, so we would always know what to do and say while raising them! If only we had a clear set of parental directions—ones we could rely on and refer to as we make the myriad of child-rearing decisions each day. And it would help if they were easy to remember!"
To answer that wish, I offer "Four R's for Christian Parenting" as a base, a compass, a guide for all those decisions. The four R's are four key characteristics parents want their children to develop:
REDEEMED: Trust they are forgiven
RESPECTFUL: Treat others with love
RESPONSIBLE: Take ownership of their actions
RESOURCEFUL: Think of ways to get things done
When faced with a parental decision on what to do or say, the answer will be to do or say that which best helps your child be respectful, responsible, or resourceful, all the while being assured that he or she is a redeemed child of God. Reminding our children of these key characteristics will give the proper foundation to all we are trying to teach. Let's take a closer look.
Both parents and children are sinful. We will make mistakes. Our actions and words will be hurtful instead of helpful. Rules will be broken. Sin still calls for repentance. Discipline, correction, and consequences will be needed. But in every situation, all involved are still also REDEEMED.
While Satan, the roaring lion, will do all he can to make both parents and children feel they are guilty, unlovable, and unforgiveable, our God still loves us and has forgiven us.
That unconditional love and forgiveness we receive from God is the same love and forgiveness we offer to our children. As a matter of fact, forgiving our children when they are rebellious and sinful truly helps us understand the tremendous love and forgiveness of God for us.
What a privilege it is as a Christian parent to reflect the love of God by continually assuring our children that they are redeemed children of God! Some suggestions for keeping the first R—Redeemed—in your family.
- Demonstrate true joy and thankfulness in being forgiven.
- Have regular family devotions.
- Pray continually with and for your children.
- Model forgiveness as husband and wife.
- Conclude all discipline with an assurance of God's and your forgiveness.
We are raising children in a society in which people often fail to show respect for one another. Our Christian homes need to be models of respect. It all starts with the modeling done by parents. Husbands and wives need to respect one another and their parents, the children's grandparents. Parents need to treat their children in a respectful manner, treating them as valued members of the family and listening to them.
Discipline needs to be carried out in a respectful manner. Parents need to emphasize the what, where, and when of the misbehavior instead of spending vast amounts of time getting to the why of the behavior. Parents need to help the child change the behavior, not intimidate him or her into doing so. Parents need to provide structure in a child's life.
Children need to be taught from a young age that showing respect for parents and others in authority is required and has been established by God as the proper order within a family. Dads, recognize your role in assuring that proper respect is shown to Mom.
Some ideas for keeping the second R—Respectful—in your family:
- Do not argue with your children. They want reasons; they don't need
- Don't fall into the "I want to be my child's friend" trap.
- Have expectations of respect from your children especially when they are young.
- Be a model of respectful behavior in all you do.
- Talk with your children when they witness disrespect in other families and on television. Grab those "teachable moments."
One of the greatest gifts we can give our children is helping them to become responsible people—people who demonstrate good judgment, who make God-pleasing decisions on their own, who can be trusted and relied on. To develop responsible children, we parents will need to serve as models. We need to "mean what we say and say what we mean." We need to carry through on our promises and fulfill our responsibilities to our children. We will need to take the time to give our children jobs and responsibilities and guide them in successfully completing their work. We will need to have clear rules and consequences for our children as they work to develop their rules for living. Some ideas for keeping the third R—Responsible—in your family:
- Recognize that teaching a child to be responsible will take far more time than simply taking care of the responsibility ourselves.
- Be responsible to your children by meeting their needs, not their wants.
- Hold your children accountable; let them suffer consequences for not being responsible.
- Have rules that are limited in number, realistic, enforceable, agreed upon by both spouses, clearly understood, and age appropriate.
- Have consequences that are logical, natural, predetermined, applied every time, certain but not severe, and administered with a cool, calm, and caring attitude.
One of the best ways to help our children into lives of their own is to help them to be resourceful—to be capable and creative especially in dealing with difficult situations. In our sin-filled world, everyone will encounter difficult situations. In school, at work, in relationships, we all encounter difficulties and challenges that require the ability to "think on one's feet" and to find a way to get it done. Allowing or requiring our children to struggle to find their own way to overcome obstacles may be hard to watch, but it is a key way to instill resourcefulness. While we will want to meet our children's needs, they benefit greatly by having to be resourceful in getting their wants.
Some ideas for keeping the fourth R—Resourceful—in your family:
- Distinguish between what your children need and what they want. Give your children all they truly need and a small amount of what they want.
- Allow children to "learn the hard way."
- Work to give your children more opportunities than you had, not more things.
- Encourage your children to find a way to get things done.
- Don't run constant interference for your children. (Avoid being a helicopter parent or, worse yet, a stealth bomber parent.)
- Help children get started on the pursuit of hobbies.
The next time you find yourself stumped as a parent, run through the four R's and ask yourself, "What decision will best help my child be Respectful, Responsible, and Resourceful, and, most important, how do I reassure my children of their redemption?" Finally, realize that try as we may, we will still make mistakes. It is then that we can repent and rejoice—we and our children are Redeemed!

text: Real estate investors like it when people rent. Obvious, right? After all, investing in real estate is a business and we have to treat it like a business. In a business, the goal is to make money. That, however, is an oversimplified version of the role of the real estate investors. We're a business that deals with people — people whose lives matter and play important roles in the health of our economy and the real estate market.This is a philosophy that plays into our role as a property manager. So whether you are a landlord or you use property management companies to provide service to you, the success of a renter, your tenant, is vital to your success as a real estate investor. Here at Premier Property Management, we hold four different sets of persons as vitally important to our company. First, our team. Second our clients. Third our vendors. Fourth our tenants. These four groups are equally important and the tenant is the one who is so often overlooked.

This study shows what the political distrust of three nations was preserved among US, Japan, and South Korea in 2008. According to the World Value Survey research, the political distrust of three nations was reached over 70% when on the basis of national people's consciousness in 2008. Especially in the case of South Korea, the percentage of extreme distrust was the highest compared to the other countries. The reason why South Korea could not manage the nation people's political voice to the government and National Assembly. So consequently political complaining behavior channel should be erected more in the political mechanism. And Korean political parties could not manage the social development and national consolidation. Moreover, attacted the negative effects to society. Political distrust is the worst obstacle in democracy that it will be needed the national consensus to amend it.

Physics Is For People Who Don't Believe
This is not a post about my books. Not directly, anyhow. This is me being damn proud of myself. You see, four and a half years ago I tried to tear my arm off. I failed, but managed to rip the pectoral muscle off my arm and leave it flapping like a broken chicken wing. I was training for a powerlifting meet a month out. Bye bye competition.
I ended up having surgery to reattach the muscle, and I was told in no uncertain terms that I would never lift that much again. I moved a week or two after the surgery across country and lost my health insurance for a while. It was a kick in the nuts, to say the least, because I identified with being a big and strong mofo. Fortunately, I'd been studying my body and weightlifting for many years now and was able to self-rehab myself back to being within 85% of my prior maximum effort. Over time I accepted that. My books started taking off and I dreamed of a life where the pen was mightier than the bicep.
But I kept lifting. I wasn't going to be a little guy or a skinny fat guy ever again. I would never compete again, but as long as I stayed in shape I could cope. So I did. Through a few more states and a few more moves I stayed strong and kept at it. And I got older. I peaked at 36, whether I wanted to or not. Now I'm 40 and I'm here to say recovery and a lot of other things aren't what they used to be.
But I also managed to rekindle my love of picking up heavy things this year. It never left, but it definitely had a few lulls along the way. I've designed a new routine that works a lot better for me these days and allows sufficient recovery and, believe it or not, growth. I began to see gains that I didn't think were possible anymore…but the iron never lies.
Last night I bench pressed a bar with only 15 pounds fewer than my competition best. AND I had enough left in the tank I wish I would have done 5 more pounds. I've given myself 6 weeks to meet and / or beat that prior maximum effort and I am positive it will happen. If you're curious about what that means, I benched 390lbs tonight and I plan to meet or beat my 405lb lift that was a state record back in 2009.
That's not the point though, what matters is that I've done a lot of crazy shit in my life. Some of it good, some of it not so good. Some of it… well, never mind (hi, Mom!). None of that stuff taught me the lessons that powerlifting has taught me. Lessons like how a determined human being has no limits. Physics and gravity be damned, if you put your mind to it you can do anything. Weight lifting, writing 12+ books a year, or doing anything you really want to. Hard work is the key. Hard work and determination. Heck, with enough hard work we might even be able to fix our government (remember, I write a lot of fiction).
Tonight's lesson is this: F*** the rules, make your own.
