A pal and I pondered this ourselves after she was requested on one such date; we concluded that espresso was more authentic than a dark bar and fewer excruciating than a dinner.
The deputy contacted the two folks inside, who were engaged in a sexual act within the again seat, in keeping with an affidavit of possible trigger. If you would like a protracted-term dedication, don't look to a one-night loveme russiansbrides time stand to offer it. Conversely, do not get romantically concerned with man who's trying to calm down in case you're not able to commit. Each cases assure drama and damage emotions.
I remorse posting this, in a piece the place different guys have mentioned how awesome and useful that is. I know what I report here is extra in-depth than anybody else posted.

Uncomplicated loveme.com Systems In The Usa
From November 2015 until November 2016 , she had been evading me I requested her for a date dozens of times. When I say dozens , I imply it litterally , not metaphorically ! She at all times replied with Yes" , however she at all times postponed the date She postponed the date for greater than a yr. It was as if she enjoyed enjoying with me.

(Dr. Tartt dropped so many jewels on this subject, I am going to must share them with you in one other put up!) Speaking particularly about what turns you on, understanding one another's love language, and experimenting with new things will be sufficient to evoke new pleasure into the relationship.

Fake Link/Website Used:
Submitted by:

Date of Submission:
- June 15, 2016
GTL Infra was hit by dozens of News Portals covering a news article whose title was –
GTL Infra has admitted undisclosed income of more than Rs 500 crore to Income Tax department
This news was covered by several top-level News Portals in India, including IndianExpress.com, TheHindu, Business Standard, DNA India, TaxGuru and more.
One such website which covered this news on the very first day, and which was ranking on #1 on Google was on –
The article had 31 comments, mostly critical of GTL Infra.
The fake DMCA forced the blogger to remove this article.
Let us analyze the DMCA –
The fake DMCA claimed that the article, initially covered by ANI, was originally published on a fake (free) blog at http://scamsalloverworld.weebly.com
That link – https://scamsalloverworld.weebly.com/blog/gtl-infra-admits-undisclosed-income-of-rs500-cr-to-i-t-news18032012 is now conveniently gone from the internet once the fake DMCA managed to force the blogger to remove the target article.
One look at this free blog – https://scamsalloverworld.weebly.com/ suggest that the website contains only specific negative content which a Reputation Agency has carefully planted (and backdated) to file other fake DMCAs.
Here are a few more fake DMCAs filed by the same person – https://www.lumendatabase.org/notices/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&term=scamsalloverworld.weebly.com&sort_by=

At least we won't have to second-guess the location of this rogue Reputation Agency. We will be covering these other fake DMCA's in our upcoming reports.
GTL Infra ran into some negative press in 2011. Now, GTL Infra is a billion dollar reat estate firm, and these negative news hurt their reputation.
GTL Infra admits undisclosed income of Rs 500 cr
That's some pretty headline. This was published on major News Portals and we know that GTL Infra hired a Reputation firm to get rid of those old archives.
The most these people managed to remove, was one article from a Free Blog – http://sharemarkettipsfree.blogspot.in. Of course, we'll be republishing this article immediately.
Soon after we published the first set of our investigation reports on fake DMCAs, we managed to generate interest from online media such as Techdirt, Adweek and Huffington Post. Some of the key stories included our revelations on Torrence Boone , MoneyLife.in, Julia Scelfo and aReputation. We also shared unpublished data and information with 3 different law agencies who looked into this scam.
And we got results. We dented this fake DMCA industry and made sure we act as deterrent to the rogue reputation firms indulged in these criminal practices. Here are some of the outcomes and changes we made possible with the help of several other citizen lawyers and agencies –
- Ripoff Report wipes out Google (fake) Removals with a stroke of genius ! Thank you Ed – at webactivism.com
- Court finds evidence of 'fraud on the Court' in one of the missing-defendant libel takedown cases – at washingtonpost.com
- Default judgment aimed at deindexing apparently accurate information about person convicted of sex offense – at washingtonpost.com
- Panic and desperation getting the better of rogue reputation services – at webactivism.com

- The Dark Art of Fake DMCA Takedown Requests – at huffingtonpost.com
Fake Fraudulent DMCA might seem inconspicuous, until its you at the receiving end of this crime. This is not a prank. This is not an inconvenience. This is not random. These fake DMCA cases are calculated criminal schemes targeting very specific and rather important information/content. These hitjobs are usually against media, in order to help their clients hide important information from public's eye, all in the name of Reputation Management. Millions of dollars are spent doing this, and if no one wants to bring this topic to the fore, we will.
Our team will not constantly monitor and publish these reports on a DAILY basis without fail. And we do not plan to publish and forget. We will take constructive steps in order to expose the faces behind this scam, and to try and undo the damages. AND IF YOU INDEED PART OF THIS SCAM, WE WILL ENSURE THAT YOU GET WHAT'S COMING YOUR WAY.

Microsoft is going to drop the Metro in its Windows 8 operating system. No, wait, the Redmond-based giant is not dropping the weird, more-suited-to-touchscreens-than-computers interface; just the name. The UI, apps, and everything else to do with Metro will now be simply known as 'Windows 8'. Not quite inventive, we know.
Microsoft has claimed that 'Metro' was just a code name for the interface used by developers all along, and that generic use of the code by the public was never intended. However, as per a report by ZDNet, this switch has been made owing to a naming dispute with its European partner, Metro Group.
The report cites official sources as saying, "Anything currently/ formerly known as a 'Metro-Style application' (with or without a hyphen) will now be known officially as a 'Windows 8 application'. References to the 'Metro user interface' will now be replaced by 'Windows 8 user interface'. And instead of saying 'Metro design', Microsoft and those adhering to their official guidelines will be using the words 'Windows 8 design'". Standard Windows applications that support multiple windows and run on your computers will be called 'desktop apps'. Even the Windows Phone UI, where the word Metro first began to be used to describe the blocky UI, will now be known as the Windows Phone 8 UI.
Now to be formally known as the Windows 8 UI
We think Microsoft should simply have gone ahead and done something to retain the Metro moniker for its UI. Or it should at least have come up with a better, more distinguishable name than simply 'Windows 8'. This new name, we believe, could be quite confusing for both users and developers alike. If we were to have a new version of a programme, say VLC Media Player, for both Windows platforms, would the names of the two versions be, 'VLC Windows 8 app' and 'VLC Windows 8 desktop app'? Imagine the confusion such a naming system would create for uninitiated users.
Formerly known as Metro, the Windows 8 user interface was specifically designed for use with mobile phones, tablets and touchscreens. The PC-port of the operating system will also have the UI, which would enable apps designed specifically for the UI to work across platforms.
If you have installed the Windows 8 Release Preview on your system, it's quite possible that you, like some of us, might not like the tiled interface on their non-touch PCs and laptops. We have a short tutorial on how to get rid of the Windows 8 (Metro) UI. You will need Windows 8 Metro UI Switcher, a portable utility, which can be downloaded from SuperUtils.com. Apart from this utility, a couple of manual tweaks are also explained in the tutorial.

I had a meeting with your professor today. She noticed you had been wearing your diapers to class.. Can you explain that to me? We agreed that you would only wear diapers while you were at home with me. Why the sudden change of heart? I thought you only wanted mommy to change your dirty diapers. She says she wants to help you potty train. That she thinks the whole class would benefit from helping you with your problems. See she thinks you have a problem. I think you need to talk to your professor and address the misunderstanding. You see mommy doesn't like to be called a negligent parent, and your teacher was about two words away from being forced into a diaper herself. I advise you clear this up or someone here will be tied to that crib in diapers for a very long time. My paddle collection has been retired for too long.

Reform of Construction Defect Laws in Nevada Finalized in Budget Talks
Reform of the construction defect laws in the state of Nevada was moved by the leader of the Assembly Republicans to the top of his demands Sunday as legislators gathered in closed-door meetings seeking to agree on a final state budget.
Assembly Speaker Pete Goechcicia, a Republican from Eureka, said that Chapter 40 of the construction defect law of Nevada has crippled the once-booming construction industry of the state by bleeding contractors with costly legal fees. That has resulted in a lot of construction workers losing their jobs.
According to Goechcicia, it is his personal hill to die for. "It is clearly inequitable what is going on. We need to get those guys (contractors) out of court and get them to quit paying attorney's fees. Let's help them (contractors) put people back to work," he said.
Other Assembly Republicans have charged Assembly Speaker John Oceguera, a Democrat from Las Vegas, of obstructing moves to reform the law because he needs the financial support of the trial lawyers in Nevada should he run for Congress.
Assemblyman Ira Hansen, a Republican from Sparks, noted, "There is one person holding this up, and that is the speaker in his building and his close attachment to the trial lawyers. Otherwise you would have meaningful reform."
On the part of Oceguera and other Democrats, they ridiculed the "hill to die for" statement of Goichechea. "Maybe it's because they are contractors," said Oceguera about the stance of the Assembly GOP. "Does that have something to do with it?"

Our body's innate ability to heal itself is marred by pollution, lifestyle, and stress of the daily grind.
We at Naked Press believe getting the right nutrients from raw ingredients can help to increase that self-healing capability.
In 2015, our team came up with cold-pressed juice detox packages to help people fulfil that need.
What started simply from two ladies meeting in the gym by chance has led us to a journey of purpose.
We now work with a team of doctor and nutritionist to create the best cold pressed juice packages specifically designed to boost our natural self-healing ability.
To date, our cold-pressed juices have helped thousands of customers to heal themselves from numerous ailments.
We hope to contribute to a kinder world where everyone has a mind, body, and soul connection — with balanced nutrition as one of the important keys to achieve that.
What Is Cold Pressed Juice?
After choosing the best raw ingredients, making cold-pressed juice is a two-step process.
The first stage is to shred the fruits and vegetables into a pulp.
The second process is using a hydraulic press to squeeze the water from the pulp — the water separated from the pulp is what we sell as cold-pressed juices.
Without any pasteurisation and heat involved, this ensures the good bacteria are still alive when we consume the juice. This is very crucial to promote self-healing in our body.

text: The Mercedes-Benz W113 platform forms basis for the 230SL two-seat roadster introduced at the 1963 Geneva Motor Show. Produced from 1963 through 1971, this car replaced both the iconic 300SL and the 190SL to become a true success story for Mercedes-Benz. Nearly 50,000 W113 SLs were produced during those years and the car sold well in the United States, with 19,440 models finding their way to American shores. It's not hard to see why this car was a success. Designer Paul Bracq did a fine job penning the 230SL and it is often cited by experts as one of the prettiest of the SL models. The car's front styling was dominated by new Bosch "fishbowl" headlights and a large three-pointed star in the chrome grille that mimicked the look of the legendary 300SL. The 230SL often came with both the standard soft top and an optional removable hardtop. A signature element of the car is the patented, slightly concave hardtop, which inspired the now famous "Pagoda" nickname. Lightweight aluminum had a prominent role in this car's development, with the bonnet, trunk lid, door skins and tonneau cover all part of the weight savings effort. All 230SLs were powered by an inline-6 engine with multi-port fuel injection that gave the roughly 2,800-pound car decent power. The 230SL had a superb suspension, powerful brakes and radial tires to make it feel quite modern next to a lot of cars from the 1960s. This Signal Red 1967 230SL features a 150 horsepower 2.3L inline-6 engine with a 4-speed manual transmission. Resplendent with a Red interior, new mahogany dash and glove console trim the car sports dealer-installed air conditioning, upgraded RetroSound AM-FM Stereo, power antenna, new front and rear bumpers, a tool roll and original jack and spare. This car represents some of the best attributes of Mercedes-Benz.

A ceremony has been held in memory of the 5,000 people who died
Secretary general Stoltenberg says, "it's important that we react in a proportional, measured and defensive way".

Simplifying e-commerce: 5 tasks you should outsource
While some online business-owners may prefer to do everything on their own, it's not a realistic option. If you are serious about growing your e-commerce business, you will have to outsource or employ a member of staff to help with a number of the tasks.
Ultimately, you want your business to work for you — not the other way around.
Besides, outsourcing to a specialist isn't that bad. It may cost you money, but the results are almost always good if you do it right. You can hire professionals and field experts to handle certain tasks, which may help you with cost optimisation, increase output, and better results.
If you have an e-commerce business that you want to scale, here's a list of 5 tasks that you should consider outsourcing.
1. Administrative tasks
As an online business owner, you will soon find yourself swarmed by a plethora of administrative tasks. Although some of these administrative tasks may seem simple on paper, they consume a lot of your valuable time. Moreover, if you do not manage to stay on top of them, things will get out of hand very quickly. Instead of lagging behind, you should consider outsourcing these administrative tasks.
Hire a good VA (Virtual Assistant) and assign some of the following tasks to him/her:
- Preparing presentations
- Collecting important data
- Creating reports for key performance indicators and KPIs
- Managing schedules
- Handling travel arrangements
- Making important reservations
- Sorting out important emails
- Running some personal errands that can be done virtually
- File management
Remember that good communication is the key to achieving success in outsourcing administrative tasks. Hire a virtual assistant that syncs with you and has similar a thought process as you do. When things work in synergy, you yield much better results.
2. Customer success
Customer success is something that you should start on your own — at least in the beginning. There are two reasons for it:
- First, when you outsource a lot of different tasks (as mentioned in the rest of this article), it may take a hit on your monthly budget. Handling customer service on your own for a little bit will give you an opportunity to cut some corners.
- Second, communicating directly with your existing and potential customers will lead to a deeper understanding of your customers, their needs, and how your business is (and should be) serving them.
As your business grows, you should definitely outsource customer service. Because of your prior customer service experience, however, you will have a solid foundation to build your business on.
3. Website design, development, and maintenance
Unless you are very good at website development — and you enjoy it a lot — you should stay away from it.
Designing, developing, and then maintaining a website can be hectic and very time-consuming. Besides, you should be focusing on growing your business all the time, instead of finding out bugs in your website and then fixing them.
In today's digital age, there are plenty of ways to find a good website developer or a web-dev team. If you hire an agency, make sure that they assign you a single point of contact. All communication will pass through that source, and that will make things significantly easier for you as an online business owner.
4. Content creation and SEO
We chose to combine these two aspects because they are closely related to each other.
You will require a lot of content. In the online marketing world, content is king. Publishing fresh, useful, and high-quality content on a regular basis is extremely important. Creating all that content requires a lot of time and effort.
SEO or Search Engine Optimisation is something that requires a lot of monitoring and constant effort. From finding profitable keywords to monitoring backlinks; from optimising (on-page and off-page) your web pages and keeping penalties away from your site, it is a full-time job.
You may take it upon yourself, but we won't recommend it. After all, a good SEO strategy may lead to a ton of free website traffic. In other words, you can start cutting down on your ads and operating costs — which can eventually be the difference between a loss-making and profitable online business.
5. Graphic design
Along with content, you will also need a lot of graphics for your website. This may include featured images for your blog post, images to be shared across social channels, infographics, charts, presentation assets, etc.
As you may already know that making high-quality graphics is a full-time job. If you start doing it on your own, you will have no time left to focus on growing your online business.
Many people will recommend you against outsourcing to an agency or freelancer, but it does have its benefits. Without outsourcing these tasks, you will find it difficult to grow your online business.

Recent recommendations of the Vaccination Commission (STIKO) include boys 9 – 14 years of age in the prophylactic vaccination against human papilloma virus. Several cancers (Cervix-, anal-, penile- and ENT-carcinomas) are associated with those viruses. The vaccination aims at reducing the current frequency of 6200 women und 1600 men who develop malignancies caused by HPV in Germany every year. Hopefully this service will be covered by statutory health insurance in the near future. Multivalent vaccines also protect against the most common serotypes causing Condylomata.

Jaden is just a stellar human being
Nineteen months later, I can say that he has. As much as I try to pay attention to Jaden, Malachi just requires so much more of me and I can tell Jaden is starting to resent it. Jaden's typical power play involves books because he's the one who can walk over and pick one out. He picks the book he wants and shoves it into Malachi's face — not my hands — when I've been helping Malachi play for too long.
Recently, I asked my mother-in-law if she could take Malachi so Jaden and I could have a day together. I think he really enjoyed himself and I know I did. We spent what seemed like hours reading book after book while he got to sit in my lap — the place that Malachi usually occupies because he can't sit up by himself.
Jaden is just a stellar human being and I wish I could have a whole blog devoted to him and his awesomeness. But I only have so much time, so I decided to collect here a list of the amazing and incredibly cute things he's done in recent weeks. Keep in mind that he is only 17 months adjusted age and so far doesn't talk (at least in real words) a whole lot. I think even you folks who don't have the great fortune to be his mother will be impressed.
- Recognizes when things are trash (examples include used tissues, a tiny piece torn from a book, outdoor debris, bottle caps, etc.) and throws them away.
- Puts dirty laundry in the hamper (this one needs a little more guidance or else he starts taking out clean clothes from the drawers and putting them in too... as if I didn't do enough laundry already.)
- Squints his eyes and crinkles his nose in a sort of sarcastic, yet good-natured, "you think you're so funny" look.
- Pauses in the middle of walking whenever he hears music and begins to dance.
- Has two dances: a sort of low booty drop that most toddlers have while standing and a weaving Stevie Wonder dance while sitting, sometimes combined with the squinty eyes in a comedy double-punch.
- When I put a diaper on the ground and tell him it's time to change his diaper he'll come close and lay down so I can put it on. However, he does hilariously lay down several feet away from where I've put the diaper.
- When I say it's time to potty he makes the sign for toilet, excitedly runs to his special potty, sits down and says "pssssss." (So far no actual business has made it into the potty, but I'm good with pretend for now.)
- Enthusiastically points out every. Single. Cat. Anywhere. This is best exemplified by a recent trip to a big box store where we found ourselves in the cat food and litter aisle. I only caught the last few seconds on tape. This had been going on for at least a minute before I thought to get my camera out.

Such a good kid.

I've thought of some more things since I posted this:ReplyDelete
- He "helps" sweep the floor.
- He picks up small pieces of food, like Cheerios, and lines them up on the counter next to the kitchen sink as he is too short to throw them in, like I do.
- He often shares food and gives toys to his brother. Sooo cute.
What a cute video! What a great child! When kids dance they are the cutest aren't they!ReplyDelete

YEAH for neuro-typical kids who totally rock!! Way to go Jaden for being mommy's big helper and so domestic too. Your wife will totally dig that.ReplyDelete
- Anonymous4:51 PM
This is a awesome post. I often wonder what Jaden is up to when you're posting about Malachi. It's good to hear he's such a rockstar, and a stinking cute to boot!ReplyDelete
on a side note i totally love that you've been posting every day, please keep it up. It's pretty amazing to log on everyday and see a new post!
I love this post! I have the exact same feelings about Brady! I like your idea of just having a day for Jaden. I am going to have to try that.ReplyDelete

The world's most powerful tractor beam just lifted a 2 centimeter ball. But will it make levitating humans a reality?
Science fiction is filled with tractor beams, and real researchers have been working on making it fact. And we're getting closer with a new acoustic tractor beam that has lifted the largest ever object: a 2-cm ball. In the movies, tractor beams are beams of some undefined energy, but that's not the case. Commonly, researchers use sound.
The idea of harnessing sound waves for levitation isn't new. Scientists have been exploiting the properties of air and sound to this end for a while. Remember that air is a fluid that behaves like a liquid, even if we can't see or feel it the same way. Similarly, sound is a physical vibration, even if we don't think of it as such.
Harnessing acoustic power is harnessing the lifting effect of physical sound waves as they move through the air. The sound compresses the air in waves and those waves correspond to the sound's wavelength. Acoustic levitation uses this wave to balance against gravity.
The result is a free-floating particle that looks a little like science fiction magic. Dialing in the sound waves means lifting objects with extreme precision, but it isn't easy technology to scale up.

More and more priestly vocations arise in different countries in the whole world, but in many places, there are no available means to provide an integral formation. The Church needs holy and learned priests and, from CARF, we want to meet that demand.
Every year, we have more than 800 priests, seminarians and religious who need a generous person who help them until the end of their studies. They come from more than 126 countries around the world and are being formed in prestigious institutions such as the Ecclesiastical Faculties of the University of Navarre and the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross, in Rome and in the International ecclesiastical schools Bidasoa and Sedes Sapientiae, in Pamplona and Rome, respectively.
«The priesthood is the love of the heart of Jesus» (Curé of Ars)
Maybe with effort, but with great joy, you might be able to help them with an annual scholarship that can range between 1,000 and 18,000 euros. Specific candidates, with name and surname, receive each scholarship, so that you can pray for them and, they can pray for you and your family for a lifetime!
If you want to be the protagonist of the change: PUT A FACE ON YOUR DONATION
And get to know the priest who is receiving formation thanks to you

Rutgers drops 5th game in a row with hard-fought 78-76 loss to No. 3 Purdue
Knights fail to cash in on upset trend across country, falling to 2-10 in Big Ten
On a college basketball Saturday rife with upsets, the Rutgers men's basketball team walked into its matchup with No. 3 Purdue optimistic that it could play the part of Oklahoma State, St. John's or Missouri.
Evidently, it was not the Scarlet Knights' (12-13, 2-10) job to curb the Boilermakers' (23-2, 12-0) 18-game winning streak, as Rutgers dropped its fifth game in a row in a heartbreaking 78-76 loss to Purdue at the Rutgers Athletic Center (RAC) Saturday.
With sophomore forward Eugene Omoruyi and senior guard Mike Williams — two of the Knights' strongest defenders off the bench — out with injury, it was always going to be a steep climb for a team that had just lost by 31 points to then-last-place Illinois.
"Our last two outings, we weren't very proud of," said junior guard Corey Sanders. "You don't get (many opportunities) to play one of the best teams in the nation at your house sold out, so today everybody had a little extra chip on their shoulder."
Uphill battle aside, it was far from the worst game Rutgers could have against one of the hottest teams in the country, especially on the offensive end, where the Knights have notoriously struggled this season.
For much of the game the team went through Sanders, who found success both in and out of the paint. Sanders finished the night leading both squads with 31 points on 13-of-27 shooting.
It was chiefly Sanders, along with fifth-year senior forward Deshawn Freeman and his remarkable defense, that allowed Rutgers to crawl back into the game in the second half, putting the home side as close as 1 point within the visiting Boilermakers. Twenty-one of Sanders's 31 points came in the second half, leaving Purdue's head coach Matt Painter with plenty to say about his opponents' shooting Saturday.
"They made tough shots," Painter said. "Corey Sanders, Geo Baker, those guys had a really good game. They made a lot of tough one-on-one plays. ... They made a lot of them tonight, and you have to give them credit."
The almost-comeback was part Sanders and freshman guard Geo Baker (who had 16 points) driving to the basket and part Freeman and junior center Shaquille Doorson picking up the scraps with putbacks. The Knights scored 12 of their 14 second-chance points in the second half, with Freeman and Doorson effectively keeping out Purdue's tall frontcourt.
Rutgers as a whole got a lot of shots past the block-happy duo of Isaac Haas and Matt Haarms — measuring in at 7 feet 2 inches and 7 feet 3 inches, respectively — and in fact, the Knights had their own block party of sorts in the first half.
They kicked off Saturday's contest with three rapid-fire blocks all in the same possession, including Freeman getting one in on Haas, who has 7 inches on the North Carolina-native.
Less blockable on Saturday afternoon was surprisingly 6-foot-4-inch guard Dakota Mathias. Mathias was deadly from 3, stymieing any and all momentum for Rutgers on the day with a 4-of-7 line from outside. His 3-pointers seemed to come at the least opportune times for the Knights, when they were getting out on runs of their own, but Mathias never let up, doing most of his work in the second half.
Joining Mathias in thwarting Rutgers' comeback attempt was Vincent Edwards, who helped out in all areas on the court, collecting 18 points, eight rebounds and seven assists on the day, adding on to that a few major baskets in the last few minutes to stretch out Purdue's lead.
On Saturday, the Knights learned that outrebounding and outshooting the opposition does not mean much when that team is Purdue. Despite Rutgers having its best shooting performance since the win over Iowa and despite it bettering the Boilermakers on the boards by a 12-rebound margin, it still was not enough to knock off the third-best team in the country.
A lot of that comes down to Purdue's 86-percent mark from the free-throw line, making 25 of its 29 attempts, compared to the Knights only getting to the line 10 times on Saturday.
It will go down as the reason Rutgers lost to the Boilermakers, but there is merit in looking at the peripherals affecting this Knights side coming into the contest. Two of its most versatile players out injured and coming off of four consecutive losses are the last things a team wants to worry about before facing a team like Purdue.
For all of Rutgers' lack of consistency this season, it means the team knows its way back from the bottom of the mountain at least half the time.
"Everyone needed to step up their game," said head coach Steve Pikiell. "We're down to eight scholarship guys, let's go. And by the way, we're playing the best team in the country. ... We had to really step it up, and I thought we did, and again came up short. But certainly not because the guys didn't step up."

"The selection of our spearhead Dane Paterson for the first two South African One-Day Internationals against Pakistan comes as a fantastic opportunity to open the Cricket World Cup door even wider. He is at the peak of his career and must use this to impress the selectors," said Faiek Davids, assistant coach of the World Sports Betting Cape Cobras.
His reaction came after it was announced that Paterson has been recalled for the first time to play for the Proteas in the 50-over format since his debut series against Bangladesh in 2017.
He was picked for the first two One Day Internationals on the 19th and 22nd January.
Linda Zondi, the national selectors' chairman, said: "We need to look at all the options available to us as we get closer to selecting our final squad for this year's World Cup. Rassie (van der Dussen) and Dane are two players who have been knocking strongly on the door in all formats."
In Paterson's case, he is currently the second top wicket-taker in the 4 Day Franchise series, with 33 wickets in six matches.
"I was happy to be selected. It was a surprise. I know the Cricket World Cup coming, but there are many good bowlers. I will have to take my opportunities," Paterson said.
"I am happy for his selection. He is a strong bowler with a strong run-up to the wicket and he has the ability to take wickets in the power play and at the business end in the death overs as well. He can bowl the slower delivery and uses the seam to cause destruction in the power plays. He could also bowl the knuckle ball to bamboozle batsmen." Davids added.
Paterson has captured 328 first-class wickets in 95 matches, and 97 List A wickets in 67 matches.
In the 2016/2017 season, he nipped out 42 first class victims in the first-class arena.

If Phoenix, Arizona isn't ground zero for the meltdown of the housing market, it sure is close. Currently, about half of every home sold in the Phoenix area is a foreclosure sale--and that's actually an improvement over recent months.
So we'll take whatever good news we can get when it comes to the housing market in Phoenix. And today that good news comes in the form of a local media report that Home Depot is looking to hire 100 people for sales and customer service positions.
Home Depot was hard hit by the meltdown of housing markets around the country. People barely paying their mortgages or watching their home values plummet don't seem to improve their homes. As new home construction ground to a halt, the demand for windows, roofling, heating, and flooring fell through the, uhm, floor.
So if Home Depot is ramping up hiring in Phoenix, it at least seems to indicate that people living and working near ground zero have regained some bullish animal spirits.
Katrina Wessman of ABC 15 reports:
The Home Depot is looking to fill more than 100 positions in the Phoenix-area, according to a Monday report.
The home improvement specialty retailer is seeking Merchandising Execution Associates.
Merchandising Execution Associates are members of mobile teams that work in different area stores each day to make sure product is stocked and displayed correctly.
The Home Depot established the Merchandising Execution Teams across the country as part of a major initiative to improve the appearance of stores and to make product easier to find and readily available to customers.
The MET teams play a key role in enhancing the customer experience, driving sales and improving inventory turns, according to the release.

Volume Film
Current students work with Leeds Beckett Graduate filmmakers
Volume Film is a film company set up by Joel Earnshaw (pictured below), BA (Hons) Media Communications Cultures, and Jordan Hunt-Brown, BA (Hons) Filmmaking, who met during their time studying at Leeds Beckett.
Having set up their business in 2018 they returned to the University to pass on their experience to first year students. They tasked students on the BA (Hons) Media Communication Cultures course to come up with a promotional video idea for a local business. The winning team joined Joel and Jordan on the promotional video shoot for the chosen business, Dry Dock in Leeds.
Lucas Todd was a member of the winning team whose pitch was chosen:
"We attended the lecturer and after listening to Joel and Jordan we got the opportunity to pitch an idea for a promotional film for a local business, what we would like to see in it with our ideas. I was in a group so got some ideas on paper like a storyboard, we had about 45 minutes to do this and then we presented in the lecture hall to Joel and Jordan. I remember thinking that I wasn't that confident that it was that good but thank god we got the opportunity and I am very grateful for the opportunity."
Lucas was not only thrilled to be a part of the winning team but loved the opportunity to attend the shoot at the Dry Dock:
"I feel I've learnt a lot about camera shots and speaking to Joel and Jordan about their experiences they have had in the industry – it's been a good experience.
It was a great opportunity to get first-hand experience in the media industry and thought it would make a great addition to my CV. I feel like it will give me a step up, compared to everyone who didn't have this kind of experience on their CV."

Get help!
When someone confesses that they have sexual thoughts that would be harmful if they ever acted on them, they are likely to be told "Get help!"
There is no kind of help that can provide a "cure" for someone's sexual attractions. However, professional therapy can be useful in assisting people to manage their thoughts successfully, without harming themselves or others.
The problem is that many people who are in need of help can't afford it, and that many therapists don't accept or aren't qualified to see clients with sexual paraphilias.
If you would like to assist someone in need to get help, donate here. Proceeds raised, less administrative costs, will be used provide clients with one free consultation session with a qualified therapist. Prospective clients can apply here.

You know that a car seat is essential for keeping your child safe in the car. But not just any car seat will do. Read on for a look at what you should know about car seats.
Car seats are often one of the first items parents add to their baby registry when they're expecting. And for good reason — they're vitally important.
Car accidents are the leading cause of death among children, but car seats reduce the risk of injury by up to 82 percent. Car seats help protect kids by keeping them in place when the car swerves, stops suddenly or crashes.
Here's what you should know about car seats:
Choose carefully. There are four types of car seats (or restraint systems), with each designed for certain stages of development.
The type of car seat your child needs depends on his or her age and weight. In the past, rear-facing car seats were recommended for kids up to age 1. The American Academy of Pediatrics now recommends that children remain rear-facing until they are at least 2 — or until they reach the seat's maximum recommended height/weight.
Rear-facing car seats have a harness that cradles a child in the case of a crash. This helps reduce the stress placed on a little one's neck and spine. Tennessee state law mandates that children younger than age 1 or who weigh less than 20 pounds must be secured in a rear-facing car seat.
Front-facing car seats also have a harness that helps protect your child, but, as the name indicates, the seat is faced forward. If a child is between the ages of 1 and 3 and weighs more than 20 pounds, Tennessee state law mandates that he or she be secured in either a rear-facing or forward-facing car seat.
Car bed restraint systems should be used for children under 5 pounds or for those with a medical need to lie flat.
Booster seats consist of a seat that boosts your child's height so that the seat belt fits properly. Tennessee state law mandates that children ages 4 to 8 or who are shorter than 4'9" must be secured in a booster seat.
Seat belts are recommended as a restraint once a child has outgrown a booster seat. Under Tennessee state law, children ages 9 to 12 and 4'9" or taller must be restrained by a seat belt.
No matter the type of restraint system, Tennessee state law mandates that all children be seated in the back seat, if available.
Once you've chosen a car seat, ensure it's installed correctly. The best way to do this? Work with a car seat inspector, which can typically be found through police and fire departments, health departments, and hospitals.
Use properly. For starters, don't use a car seat that's too old, has visible cracks, was recalled or is missing parts. Make sure that the seat you're using has a label on it that identifies when it was manufactured and the model number.
There's one factor for car seat safety that many parents don't consider. During the winter, children are often bundled up to fend off the cold. But it's vitally important that they not wear their coats while in a car seat. When a child is wearing extra layers of clothing, the straps of the car seat will likely be too loose to properly restrain him or her.
Instead of putting your child in a coat while in the car, strap your little one in the car seat without the coat. Once your child is secured, you can place the coat or a blanket on top of the seat for extra warmth.
Children's Hospital at Erlanger has partnered with Kohl's Cares to bring parents the information they need to keep their kids Safe and Sound. Safe and Sound at Children's Hospital at Erlanger offers free car seat checks every Wednesday from 9am–12pm and Thursdays from 3pm–6pm. No appointment necessary.

Dayne says he wants me to blog more. So this one's for Dayne!
(For the record, I'd like to blog more, too.)
A couple of months ago, I was convicted through a number of channels (my Beth Moore Breaking Free study, our book study on The Christian Atheist by Craig Groeschel, and a particular sermon Phil gave at church) that I depend too much on myself and too little on God. I always grabbed life by the horns, and I had established a foundational mindset that I was in charge, that I knew better than God, and that no one was going to take care of me or anything else, so I'd better get cracking. This illness has shown up in many wonderful places, like the way that I have habitually ruined relationships, sabotaged my mental and physical health, over-scheduled myself to burn-outs, and hid (or, at worst, ran) from God.
Coming to this realization was a huge turning point for me, but recently I've discovered that, even with my shifted perspective & general surrender to God, I still have some major death-grips on key aspects of my life. I can recognize them by the knowledge that I would be majorly ticked if God messed with any of these areas (listed in order of tightness of grip):
1) my relationship & its future. To be honest, I would hate more than anything to see another relationship fail. I want nothing in this world more than to never lose Dayne. For all the challenges that a committed relationship brings, I have learned and grown SO much and been encouraged more than I could ever imagine. He is an incredible human being and an even more incredible boyfriend.
2) my employment & pay level. I've worked hard over the past two years in my nanny job, and I finally reached a level of pay that I am more or less satisfied with. I don't want to be let go from this job unexpectedly, and I don't want to be in a situation where I'm making less (or no) money.
3) my home life. I like being settled in a nice apartment with the comfort of some personal space, a nice kitchen, a warm bed, etc. I don't want any unexpected moves or big changes.
4) my friendships. I (unfortunately) work very hard at maintaining these and I think sometimes they are a source of pride, like "I have such incredible friends!" I really do have incredible friends, but I have to remember that I'm not the One who put them in my life, and it is only by God's grace that I can do anything (including spending time with and growing my relationships with these incredible friends).
Although I'd love to be in a place where I can just let these things go and say, "Sure, God, whatever You want!", I just am not there. I'm disappointed. I wanted to hand over the keys to my life to God and be done with it — growing in my new freedom to relax and enjoy closeness with Dad. To follow His direction and His leading only.
Turns out it is not quite that easy! I've been reading Walking with God by John Eldredge with my book study, and in the past two weeks' readings, John has repeatedly talked about asking God about even the smallest decisions BEFORE we make them. And actually expecting Him to speak. It's not a novel concept, but he presents it in a way that seems novel and is totally practical. So I've started to ask God about the little things. Should I start going to counseling again? Should I join the YMCA? Should I go to the informational Kenya meeting? There's no way I'm ready to ask bigger questions, like, "Should I marry Dayne?" or "When should I find a new job?", because I haven't even practiced listening for God in smaller situations.
"This is step one in learning to listen to the voice of God: ask simple questions. You cannot start with huge and desperate questions, such as, 'Should I marry Ted?' or 'Do you want me to sell the family business tomorrow?' or 'Do I have lung cancer?' (Paranoia rarely enables me to hear God's voice.) That's like learning to play the piano by starting with Mozart, learning to ski by doing double black diamonds. There is way too much emotion involved, too much swirling around in our heads. I find that to hear the voice of God, we must be in a posture of quiet surrender. Starting with the small questions helps us learn to do that." – John Eldredge, Walking with God, p. 30
So surrender starts small. And builds up. And eventually I won't feel any more need to DIY. Because I'll know that the One in Charge has my back, and He will show me consistently that He has what's best for me. My intimacy with Him will grow, and my fingers will gradually loosen from those bigger areas of my life.
"…The sheep listen to [the shepherd's] voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice… I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep." – John 10:3-4, 10-11

Neon love at Lights of Soho, London's first light gallery
Last week Jay and I popped down to Brewer Street after work for the re-opening of Lights of Soho, a gallery specialising in light art. We both absolutely love neon art, though sadly this love only manifests itself via our screensavers at work as we are too sad and poor to spend thousands on art. (Or, indeed, anything. Like most Londoners, our income is quickly frittered away on essentials, like rent and Uber, before we can spend it on fabulous artworks for our scabby rented digs.)
So, as you can understand, we were very excited. Unfortunately I'd been working on site that afternoon in Fitzrovia and just cycled myself down to Soho afterwards, so I was tragically under-dressed and also a bit sweaty…especially compared to the scores of identikit skinny blondes all sporting fluffy black eyelashes and bold red lips. Nothing screams glamour! like helmet hair and a luminous blue sports rucksack after all, so I held my head high and pretended I was being ironic. Jay, who turned up with a proper shirt and Mulberry gym bag, tried not to look too embarrassed. (He is a true friend.)
Despite the fact that I was being upstaged by literally everyone – including the people collecting glasses who presumably didn't give a shit what anyone thought of them – it was totally worth the
humiliation trip. There were iconic pieces by Chris Bracey (of 'God's Own Junkyard' fame) and Tracey Emin (bit of a sly dog when it comes to pissing on beds and selling them for squillions of pounds, but a dab hand with a neon light bulb), and lots of pieces by lesser-known artists too. One of my favourites was this piece by Rebecca Mason, a snip at £4,800.
The gallery, which used to be an old brothel (hardly shocking on Brewer Street but looks good in the press release), is also a members'-only creative space with a lounge in the basement and a programme of special films and events. It's also a bargain by Soho private members' clubs standards at just £100-150 a year. (By comparison, Soho House's grubbing tentacles have hiked up prices to £400-800, plus a non-refundable £200 registration fee. Apparently it's owned by Walmart these days.)
But you don't have to be a member to see the pretty lights. The gallery is open to the public from 11am to 6pm every day, and only after that is it reserved for its members. There's bar and they'll soon be introducing small plates from Mark Hix, whose eponymous bistro is just down the road, so to get the full experience you may have to indulge in a spot of daytime drinking. All in the name of art appreciation, you understand…
So if you're a fan of light art, get yourself down there; it's so hot right now. (Literally…after 20 minutes we were sweating like water buffalo, although the skinny blondes and mustachioed short trouser brigade were inexplicably unruffled by the sweltering combination of mass bodies and a large amount of neon light in a relatively small space. So yeah, don't wrap up.)

A Smart Gift to Leave to Norman Rockwell Museum

A pastor who tried to walk on water like Jesus did he drowned in front of his congregation.
Pastor Franck Kabele, 35, on the West Coast of Africa assured his congregation that he was capable of walking on water like Jesus did. He attempted to reenact what Jesus did as his congregation looked on. He set out to demonstrate that he, too, could walk on water on Gabon's beach in Libreville. Unfortunately, it cost him his life.
Bible scholars know that in Matthew 14:22-33, Jesus walked on water and when Peter, His disciple, tried to walk on water to go to Jesus, he began to drown and Jesus saved him.
Kabele said that he received a revelation that told him with enough faith he could do what Jesus was able to do.
A report was given by an eyewitness that the pastor took his congregation out to the beach. He told them that he would cross the Kombo estuary by foot, which is normally a 20-minute boat ride. By the second step into the water, Kabele was completely submerged. Sadly, he drowned immediately before his congregation could rescue him.

Dear Parents, Guardians, Visitors and Guests,
We are excited to welcome you all to Dodge County High School's graduation.
Our school's graduation is a time-honored tradition and we are very proud of the ceremony that our school holds. We, the Dodge County High School seniors, would like to ask the community, including parents, visitors and special guests, to allow each graduate the opportunity to receive his or her diploma in a dignified manner.
We respectfully request that there be no catcalls, outbursts or yells from the crowd. A loud outburst for one graduate detracts from the next graduate. Also, we ask that all guests turn off their cell phones and remain seated and quiet until the commencement exercises are complete. Movement detracts from our graduates and their recognitions.
We seniors also request that our guests respect the formality of our special occasion and dress appropriately and accordingly. The seniors agree that anyone who violates these requests will be asked to leave the stadium. We enlist your cooperation and support so that we will not have to ask you to leave the stadium.
On behalf of the senior class and student council officers, we appreciate your help with these requests and we are glad you have joined us in the Class of 2019's time of honor.

Senior Class Vice-President Jessie Thomas
