Content Promotion
Lack of content promotion is one of the primary mistakes we see brands make with their content marketing strategy. The best content in the world won't make an impact if no one sees it. We take the content we create for your organization as well as your existing content and get it in front of both influencers and your customers.
At Content Harmony, we approach content promotion from the traditional earned, owned, paid media approach:
- Owned media
- Social media management
- Email newsletter management
- Technical SEO
- Earned media
- Targeted outreach
- Link building
- Paid media
- Paid content amplification
- PPC advertising
Don't let great content go to waste. Here's a closer look at some of our content promotion agency services:
Owned Media
Email & Newsletter Marketing
Your email list is one of the most valuable marketing channels you have. We can help you structure and create drip campaigns, welcome campaigns, or general newsletters that get your content in front of customers and fans who are already invested in your brand.
If you need to build your email newsletter audience list, we can help with that, too. We have proven strategies that will help you build qualified email leads that we can later help you convert into sales.
Organic Search & SEO
Good SEO is often the difference between your content being seen or unseen. Search represents an audience that's actively looking for specific products and solutions that your brand can offer. A well-optimized page can mean the difference between your content ranking on the first page of Google and not ranking at all.
We create content to be well-optimized, but we can also help you find opportunities to improve how existing content ranks across your site, from landing pages to detailed case studies and beyond.
Social Media Marketing
No matter who you are, your fans are on social. We can help you reach fans on their social platforms of choice and get existing content in front of your fans on their favorite social sites, whether that's Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest, or something completely different.
Contests are a great way to promote your brand, build your email list, increase your social fans, generate user content, and more, but only when done well. We'll work with you—and, potentially, partners for co-promotion—to build contests that draw fan submissions and meet your brand's goals.
Paid Media
Paid Content Amplification
If you want your content to reach your target audience, it's hard to beat social advertising. We'll conduct careful audience research to make sure you get a strong cost per click for qualified users on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, whether you're looking to promote your content to influencers or directly to your likely customers and fans.
PPC Advertising
But social ads aren't the only paid content channels we can use to promote your content. We can help you with everything from SEM to native advertising and beyond.
Earned Media
Content Outreach Campaigns
From traditional journalists to popular bloggers, we'll directly reach out to key influencers in your landscape to increase brand awareness, build relationships, and promote existing content.
Please use our Schedule A Call page to reach Kane Jamison with questions about our content marketing services and to learn more about how we can help your organization reach its goals.

Everybody Gives Day Is Monday, September 16.
Help Launch Expansion of the Concert Hall!
On Everybody Gives Day our ambitious goal is to raise $75,000 for the Annual Fund. This critically important resource funds scholarships to deserving students as well as essential operational and maintenance needs. With the knowledge that we can meet these obligations, Kinhaven will launch a major renovation and expansion of the Concert Hall and complete the purchase of the Steinway Concert B.
Thanks to a generous grant from the EHA foundation, all gifts will be fully matched. That means a gift of $50 is worth $100; a gift of $250 is worth $500; and a gift of $2,500 is worth $5,000 toward replenishing the Annual Fund and getting us started on Concert Hall renovations.
Whether you give $5 or $5,000, we invite you and the entire Kinhaven community to take advantage of the dollar-for-dollar matching grant and take part in this important work.
You don't have to wait to show your support by donating to Kinhaven. All funds received between today and September 17 will be credited toward Everybody Gives Day!

RusHydro Launches New 640 MW Hydropower Unit at the Sayano-Shushenskaya Hydropower Plant
JSC RusHydro (ticker symbol: MICEX-RTS, LSE: HYDR; OTCQX: RSHYY) announces that a new hydropower unit was commissioned and put into commercial operation at the Company's Sayano-Shushenskaya hydropower plant, adding 640 MW to the plant's available-for-use capacity.
The new unit is already a third newly manufactured one that was put into commercial operation at Sayano-Shushenskaya. Currently, the working capacity of Sayano-Shushenskaya HPP is 3,200 MW or half of the full design capacity, with five 640 MW units in operation. Assembly of a new unit is underway. Two of the four old units, restored after the accident, have been decommissioned and will be replaced by new ones.
The rehabilitation schedule for the Sayano-Shushenskaya HPP calls for commissioning 3 hydro-units per year until 2014. Eventually, the plant will be fully equipped with brand new up-to-date equipment with enhanced performance characteristics that meet all safety and reliability requirements.
Power Machines and RusHydro entered into a contract to produce basic power equipment to restore the Sayano-Shushenskaya HPP in November 2009. Under terms of the contract, Power Machines will produce 10 hydropower turbines, nine 640 MW hydropower generators and six excitation systems (one new generator and 4 excitation systems have been produced and installed at hydropower units launched after the completion of renovation repair work in 2010).
The useful life of the new units has been extended to 40 years and maximum efficiency now reaches 96.6%. They also have improved energy and cavitation features. The turbines will be fitted with a more efficient process protection system, which will automatically shut down the unit in case of any inadmissible deviations from controlled parameters.
The information in this press release may contain projections or other forward-looking statements regarding future events or the future financial performance of RusHydro. You can identify forward looking statements by terms such as "expect," "believe," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," "will," "could," "may" or "might," the negative of such terms or other similar expressions. We wish to caution you that these statements are only predictions and that actual events or results may differ materially from these statements. We do not intend to update these statements to reflect events and circumstances occurring after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Many factors could cause the actual results to differ materially from those contained in our projections or forward-looking statements, including, among others, general economic conditions, our competitive environment, risks associated with operating in Russia, rapid technological and market change in our industries, as well as many other risks specifically related to RusHydro and its operations.

ANKARA (Reuters) - A Turkish military convoy was attacked en route to one of its observation posts in northwest Syria on Monday, Turkey's Defense Ministry said, adding that three civilians were killed and 12 others wounded in the air strike.
The ministry said in a statement that the attack violated Ankara's agreements and cooperation with Russia, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's most powerful ally. It said Russia had been told in advance about the convoy.

Re: Cannot kill failed winscp session
Thanks for your post.

Before posting, please read how to report bug or request support effectively.
Bug reports without an attached log file are usually useless.
I vote for this, very annoying.
To me it hangs immediately also if I try to connect server that does not respond. In that case there is no timeouts, it just hangs. Must kill from Task manager, has been doing that for ages.
I suppose it's not a bug, but a annoyance which isn't bothered to fix. I'm not complaining though, WinSCP is still the best SFTP client for Windows.

|Bruno Ganz
|Bruno Ganz in July 2018
Known for
Playing Adolf Hitler
March 22, 1941
Gano Brunz
1.68m (5' 6")
15/16 February 2019 (Aged 77)
Bruno Ganz (22 March 1941 – 15/16 February 2019[1]) was a Swiss actor, known for his roles as Damiel in Wings of Desire and Adolf Hitler in Downfall (Der Untergang). Bruno Ganz was born in Zürich to a Swiss father (mechanic) and a northern Italian mother. He had decided to pursue an acting career by the time he entered university. He was equally drawn to stage and screen but initially enjoyed greater success in the theater.
In 1960, Ganz landed his first film role, in Der Herr mit der schwarzen Melone (The Gentleman in the Black Derby). Despite the support of lead actor Gustav Knuth, his cinematic debut was not particularly successful and it was only many years later that his career in film got off the ground.
Ganz made his film breakthrough in a major part in the 1976 film Sommergäste, launching a widely recognized film career in both Europe and the U.S. Ganz played a professor opposite Sir Laurence Olivier in the thriller The Boys from Brazil (1978), about Nazi fugitives.
Ganz is probably best known for his role in Wim Wenders' Wings of Desire, as the angel Damiel. He co-starred with Dennis Hopper in Wenders' The American Friend, an adaptation of Patricia Highsmith's novel Ripley's Game.
He went on to portray Adolf Hitler in Der Untergang (The Downfall) (2004). Ganz did four months of research on Hitler in preparation for the role, going so far as to listening to a ten minute recording of Hitler in private conversation with Finnish Field Marshal Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim, in order to properly mimic Hitler's conversational voice, and distinct Austrian dialect[1]. In that film's most famous scene, Ganz dismisses all from his briefing room except Dieter Mann, Christian Redl, Rolf Kanies and Justus von Dohnányi.
Ganz recently appeared in The Reader and Der Baader Meinhof Komplex, which were both nominated for the 81st Academy Awards (best picture and best foreign language film).
Declining Health & Death
In July 2018, Ganz cancelled his participation in the Salzburg Festival. German-speaking press reported on his declining health until it was announced that Ganz was diagnosed with colorectal cancer. He passed away in the night of the 15/16 February 2019 at his home in Zürich, according to his manager.

White Moon Night

Oh, you should have said...as sometimes I think it is helpful to be taught how to see beauty. I loved the last verse, Janet.ReplyDelete
Yes, I likely should have said...although I also believe you can lead them to it, but you cannot make them 'see'! They are quite accustomed to mom's 'oh, just look at the way the....' My son Matt told me as we were driving to his hockey game one day and I was o-o-o-hing and a-a-a-hing over the way the snow hung on the cedar grove...etc,he said, mom, you seem to see something beautiful no matter where you go'. we laughed.ReplyDelete
I refrained from saying something last night on the way home as the moon flooded the landscape because on the way out I could hardly keep my eyes on the road, the sun was setting in glorious originality! and the kids were saying M-o-o-m! the sun has set before:))
I appreciate your encouragement to mention it...yes,I will continue to mention it! at least for that moment my teen-age daughters need to take their eyes off of their phones and stop texting...but THAT is a whole 'nother topic for a whole 'nother poem
Don't stop noticing these things and pointing them out - yes, there is beauty in everything, our challenge is to find it.ReplyDelete

Evaluation of Public Administration Policies
Public policies are central to government action. They are born of compromise between expectations and needs that are often contradictory, following lengthy procedures involving many contributors at various levels.
Training documents
Public policies are central to government action. They are born of compromise between expectations and needs that are often contradictory, following lengthy procedures involving many contributors at various levels.
Having in mind a background of rationalisation and modernisation of State action, it is now more than ever necessary to ensure that public policies are effective and successful. Public policies involve various actors, among which the proper division of competences and coordination is crucial. The evaluation then reveals the policies' effectiveness and performance and whether they should be pursued or revised.
As pointed out in the Sigma paper on the role of Ministries in the Policy System, in the Western Balkans' countries the evaluation of public policies was been generally carried out in an irregular manner, even informal, which undermines the control of the effectiveness of policies and the use of public money.
Some efforts have been made in connection to the development of a culture of strategic management within public administration, but further progress is desired.
Indeed, amongst the key challenges identified in the communication from the European Commission to the European Parliament and Council on the "Enlargement Strategy and Main Challenges 2011-2012" is the increased focus on strengthening the rule of law and public administration reform, which cannot be effective without a proper evaluation system.
In view of the considerable scope of this subject, ENA's ambition through this course is to provide participants with the most important aspects of evaluation during a public policy process: context, stakeholders, approaches, types and techniques of evaluation.
The evaluation of public policies is a complex and large subject that can is difficult to address properly in only 3 days. That's why this training aims at providing participants with information on various aspects of evaluation and the opportunity to get to know some concrete examples.
The main objectives of the training are:
- To further strengthen the knowledge and skills of the participants in the field of public policy evaluation. This includes the introduction of some theoretical concepts that will be addressed and analysed as well as presentation of tools and concrete examples of evaluations;
- To facilitate the exchange of experiences both within the region and between the region and the EU Member States (ReSPA objective);
- To strengthen capacities of the participants in analysing the impact of public policies.
This training covers the following topics regarding evaluation of public policies:
- Evaluation as part of a public strategy: how to decide the implementation of a public policy and how to design and to plan it
- Development and elaboration of a public policy: methods, actors and stakes. How to take into account the financial, economical, environmental, social, political impact of a policy?
- Implementation of a public policy: relation between central and local administrations, public vs private sectors: identification of competencies and responsibilities
- Procedures of control: rules, actors, types of control and responsibilities (Parliament, court of audit, inspectorates, NGOs, media…)
- Comparing the functions of parliamentary control, administrative internal inspection, audit and external evaluations
- Evaluating and measuring performance and appropriateness of human and financial resources to the expected outcomes
- Tools for controlling public services
- Role of ethics and transparency in the evaluation of a public policy
Target group
In order to fully benefit from the training, the participants should:
- Already have a first working experience in the evaluation of public policies;
- Work in the public administration of any country of the Western Balkans (ministries, public agencies, Government commissions, courts of audit, corps of control, inspectorates, General Secretariats, Chancelleries, etc) involved in the public policy processes.

Habit is the denial of creativity and the negation of freedom; a self-imposed straitjacket of which the wearer is unaware.
~ Arthur Koestler
This week of the Virgo Full Moon and the "Super Tuesday" elections in the United States, where over 400 delegates are up for grabs, we have a visit from another important teacher. From last week's Strength card, that calls forth our noblest courage, The Devil has much to say about our relationship with our Shadow and our fears.
This card has not come up since June, 2008. Previous to that, we were getting quite a few visits. Are we sliding back into the pre-election, pre-economic crash energies of that time? I hope not.
The Tarot places The Devil directly in contrast with The Lovers card. The Devil is the number fifteen in the Major Arcana. This reduces to six, which is the Lovers card. Look at both together and you'll see that the couple is the same. The composition of the two cards is also identical – the two nude figures, with the woman on the left, the male on the right.
In The Lovers, we see the angel Michael (some believe he is Raphael) above them, who the woman gazes upon, while the man looks towards her. In the Devil card, perched on the slab above them is the Horned One. Both human figures look neither at him, nor at one another, only blankly downward.
In both cards, the supernatural being overseeing the couple is offering a blessing.
In fact, look closely at The Devil and you will see that the chains the man and woman wear are loose. If they would only awaken from their trance, they could escape.
Last year, under the influence of the Uranus/Pluto square, we saw massive popular uprisings in the Arab world, the so-called Arab spring. The Occupy movement in the U.S. also came to life, at the waning phase of that square. (Get ready.. the square will hit again in June).
Although much of the revolutionary drama appears to have subsided, is just no longer being reported, or is being met with all-out war on the people, as in Syria, the problems sparking public outcry across the globe have not disappeared.
Despite massive imbalance and injustice between the super-wealthy and the struggling middle- and lower-classes, it's business as usual. Little of the U.S. election rhetoric addresses in any constructive way the complex issues that threaten the future of our freedoms and prosperity. Instead, there are some who have implied and even directly blamed our troubles on Satan's war on America.
As Thomas Jefferson said, "We in America do not have government by the majority. We have government by the majority who participate."
In our communities, and in our personal lives, do we ignore addictions and behaviors that cause harm? How are we complacent? In what ways do we shun creative risks, preferring instead "the devil we know?"
Do we feed the fears and projections of our own Shadows? What bargains with the Devil have we made, in order that we not see or act upon the uncomfortable, inconvenient truths around us?
Like the apathetic couple in The Devil, the constant barrage of fear, cynicism, neglect, and denial becomes a habit that eventually numbs us; we become conditioned to it. Our chains become so all-pervasive, we can barely discern them.
What will it take to awaken us? What is the straitjacket we have assumed is normal, or that some would have us believe we deserve?
This week, I urge you to resist the urge to be the passive bystander in your own life. Get angry; get sad; get real; get moving. Whatever it takes. Just wake up. We cannot afford the indulgence of anyone's self-pity, denial, or despair.
We all have our distortions, fears, and blind spots. But there is great hope in knowing that once we are willing to look The Devil in the eye, we can take back our power.
Remember that the opposite of love is not hate. It is indifference. The most malevolent acts of mankind always come, not from passion, but from apathy.
May this card be a wake-up call that offers a new beginning to all of us.

Hoverboards and Scooters Save Time & Money
What is the real reason Hoverboards and Scooters save time and money? perhaps it is due to the fact that you won't have to walk from your house to the bus, train station or work. Instead, you can glide on a Hoverboard at speeds that you can't do on foot. Simply hopping on your Hoverboard or Scooter, skipping the bus can save you time and money. However, while it is still not possible to ride them on UK Roads, it's something to consider when they do become legal.
Hoverboards and Scooters cost a lot less to run and maintain than any other motorised vehicle. This is due to the simple fact that Hoverboards and Scooters don't require petrol, diesel or any kind of oils. In fact, all that is needed to use a Hoverboard or an Electric Scooter is by simply plugging it in to charge.
Our UL certified chargers will power your Hoverboard or Scooter in less than 2 hours, saving you time and money. Furthermore, due to our Hoverboard being powered by Samsung batteries, you can now ride for even longer. One of the many other benefits of riding a Hoverboard or scooter includes the fact that unlike conventional motors, our Hoverboards are 100% eco-friendly, too.
Hoverboard Scooter Legislation
At this moment in time it's still illegal to use a Hoverboard or an Electric Scooter on public roads and walkways. However, the Mayor of London is pushing for the Hoverboard and Scooter legislation to be updated and changed. Many cities all over the EU have already changed their laws permitting Hoverboards and Electric Scooters to be used on public walkways and roads with nothing but good feedback.
The law in the UK currently states that Hoverboards and Electric Scooters are classed as "carriages". Therefore, these are banned from the pavements. If you chose to use a Hoverboard or an Electric Scooter on public roads you are running the risk of being prosecuted for driving a motor vehicle without insurance.
Unfortunately, you cannot get a Hoverboard or Electric Scooter insured as you would with a normal vehicle. These laws may seem crazy but under the Road Traffic Act 1961 it states that any "mechanically propelled" vehicle must have insurance, MOT, Tax and a Driving Licence. Until the Hoverboard legislation changes, we'll have to stick to riding our Hoverboards on private parks and gardens.
The Hoverboard Industry
The Hoverboard industry is a fast-paced and ever-growing market. They first came to exist in 2015 and have since been growing in popularity. Many celebrities and footballers are seen riding on them. The growth of Hoverboard sales over the years has been in the face of them not being allowed to be used on public roads. Of course, this means that consumers are unfazed by the ban on Hoverboard and still see the purpose of buying one.
Hoverboards have many benefits and will save you a lot of time and money. Take a look at our previous article on the Benefits of owning a Hoverboard for all the reasons why you should purchase a HOVERBOARD PRO Hoverboard for sale.
Recent studies show that the Hoverboard will reach a market value of £1.3bn by 2021. The Mayor of London is pushing for the Hoverboard and Scooter to be legalised on roads and pavements. If the Mayor is successful in doing so, the Hoverboard and Scooter market will be expected to rise dramatically.
The Hoverboard franchise has been growing exponentially since 2015 with different models of all shapes and sizes being released. HOVERBOARD PRO provides all of the best Hoverboards for sale. From the 6.5 inch Disco Hoverboard, 8.5 inch Hummer Hoverboard to the 10 inch Mammoth Hoverboard. Each one of our Hoverboards for sale come with bluetooth speakers as standard.

I was fine until I started speaking to you!
Was what I overheard on the train to central Brum on the Saturday of this positively scorching bank holiday weekend. Of the pair, it seemed one was perfectly fine being single until her insensitive friend decided to tell her about her lack of a man. She continued to goad her despite the none of your business sign on her face, obvious even to the most emotionally illiterate person.
The charity MIND reports that in the UK, 1 in 4 people will experience a mental health problem each year and in England, 1 in 6 people report experiencing a common mental health problem (such as anxiety and depression) in any given week. Much of the time, the causes of anxiety and depression involve some major life event: childhood trauma, death, divorce, unemployment, and so on. However, for others, I suspect those in the latter statistic, the causes are not due to such factors: The causes stem from their daily interactions with people.
Much of the current discussion on mental wellbeing puts the responsibility thereof, on the individual. For example, as a teacher, you would definitely have come across advice telling you to eat and sleep properly, to get regular exercise, to spend time outdoors, to not drink too much, etc. and this is all well and good. Our happiness is directly linked to the amount of dopamine regularly released in our bodies and all of the aforementioned cause dopamine release, so I 100% agree: We should be all up in there.
What's been bothering me of late, is my feeling that a disproportionate amount responsibility has been placed on the sufferers of mental health problems, rather than the causers mental health problems. To be absolutely blunt, no one should feel pressured to meditate, go running, or do yoga because they are surrounded by one too many antagonistic people at work or at home. Just as we advise others what they can do to manage their wellbeing, so too should we advise- in fact, pressurise- others into not ruining other peoples mental health.
This past week I spoke to colleagues and my year 10 form and asked the question: Aside from the traumatic experiences (described earlier), what do other people do to negatively impact your mental health? This blog will outline some of these. (Disclaimer: Lest this come across self-righteous, we have all been guilty of these, so by no means do I speak from a position of superiority!)
Reinforcing peoples insecurities
Social media has successfully destroyed the self-esteem of the masses. It's bad enough that the image of beauty promoted by the media is neither realistic nor attainable, but to add insult to injury, simply turning on a snapchat filter is enough to tell us exactly what's 'wrong' with us- where we 'require improvement', so to speak. (Couldn't resist that one!) A recent news article stated that people are now suffering from 'Snapchat dysmorphia'- where the subject visits a plastic surgeon requesting to look the way they do when particular filters are on. It would appear that while Ed Sheeran might tell us otherwise, most of us are not in love with our bodies. (I once got tagged in this three times, by three different mates, in the same three minutes. FML . . . Banter is different, but if someone has a genuine insecurity, we're better off keeping our mouths shut!).
Of course, physical appearance aside, there are a whole myriad of other insecurities. What came out in my discussions last week, was that when people receive unsolicited confirmation of their insecurities by friends ('friends?') or colleagues, they definitely feel the impact on their mental health. Prior to that, they could have convinced themselves that they're just being paranoid, over analysing, etc. but once someone else says it, the belief becomes knowledge. I suspect your average Joe wouldn't reinforce someone's insecurities obviously, but it seems that many of people have subtle ways of doing this, like the two young ladies mentioned earlier. The one could have been insecure about being single, and her 'friend' reinforced her insecurity by mentioning it and trying to change it; because she was 'concerned' of course.
Reminding people of their mistakes, shortcomings, failures, regrets etc.
The hallmark sign of a jealous person is not only that they cannot stand to see you succeed, but they will also desperately clutch to a time or event in your life when you weren't so successful. Again, this is done subtly. For example, myself along with 19 other NQTs at my school, had a very tough NQT year. With no behaviour policy, we would literally stand and shout at our classes to absolutely no avail, and SLT would blame us for planning 'boring' lessons to the point that we even stopped sending for them to help with our unruly classes. Cut to three years later, my results were excellent, I had good relationships with my pupils and I was even nominated for a teacher award. Then of course, I had to deal with the occasional jealous colleague making comments such as 'Well done! You were struggling to pass this time last year!' Gee- thanks.
Telling people what they should have done
You may have been forced to make a decision in a situation in which there was no right or wrong answer, and your decision may not have been the best one. It could have been the decision to leave a job, to stay with a partner, to not follow your marking policy, to get into a physical altercation etc. When you relayed the story, no doubt, someone told you exactly what you did wrong and what they would have done had they been you. Basically, telling you how stupid you are and how clever they are, (because after all, they were there and they had time to think?!) Nothing more appreciated than unsolicited advice eh?
Blaming the victim
This one I just can't stand. You've just had your car stolen and someone makes a smug face and tells you that you should have parked nearer to the venue; you've just tripped over a dog whilst running (me last week) and someone makes a smug face and tells you that you should have allowed more clearance when going past it; your significant other cheats on you and someone makes a smug face and tells you that you should have paid more attention to them. The list is endless, and examples that are far more sinister can be given. In my experience, this type of behaviour is commonly demonstrated by people who have been both under-socialised (lack of empathy) and over-privileged (never suffered any real trauma).
Trivialising your concerns
You're stressed because you're moving house. So what?! They moved house twice last year and it was nothing. You need to get over yourself and stop moaning. You have a headache. So what?! They have three migraines a week and they just shut up and get on with it.
I'm sure you know the type of person I'm referring to. Not only will these types contribute to a mental health problem, but they are also a part of the cause of the stigma attached to mental health problems. After all, your anxiety is nothing but a product of your weakness so don't waste other peoples time talking about it!
In conclusion
The golden question then, is how do we react to the above?
I recently read The Sociopath Next Door, and author Martha Stout argues that when dealing with a sociopath, a victim should give up the need to be polite. Of course, I'm not arguing that the above are all sociopaths but this advice seems to resonate. Often people with mental health problems are very concerned about how others perceive them so they end up being polite to their own detriment. While I'm not qualified in psychology, and this is my first non-teaching blog, I still feel that telling someone to shut the fuck up is both reasonable and appropriate in the right context. If someone violated us physically, it is very rare that we'd carry on being polite, so why let others damage us mentally? (The use of profanity was deliberately hyperbolic- I'm sure you can take the spirit of the message!)
As an avid reader of world religion, I have noticed something truly uncanny: All of the faiths, from Christianity and Islam to Native American philosophy, emphasise the duty of man to deal justly with his neighbours.
Why is this uncanny? In itself, it isn't. It's how this does not seem to be a huge part of the current discourse on mental health that is uncanny. Why is that whenever there is a mental health awareness week at school for example, there is nowhere near as much emphasis on treating ones neighbour as there should be. Rather, it is more geared towards, healthy eating, proper sleeping, exercise, and other to-do's. As well as the to-do's, we should make a greater point of the do-not's and emphasise the truth that our actions are key variables in the mental wellbeing, or lack there of, in others.
Let's make sure people are happy.
Before they speak to us.
After they speak to us.
Enjoy the rest of the long, hot weekend! Time to run . . . avoiding dogs!

Kyle Anderson signed an offer sheet with the Memphis Grizzlies earlier this week and according to Jabari Young of the San Antonio Express-News it is unlikely the Spurs will match the 4 year, $37 million deal for Anderson's services.
Told #Spurs unlikely to match Kyle Anderson's 4-year, $37M offer sheet clearing the way for him to join #Grizzlies … tonight is the deadline
— Jabari Young (@JabariJYoung) July 8, 2018
Even though Anderson has showed signs and flashed of improvement, posting career highs in minutes,points, field goal percentage, assists, rebounds,and blocks it appears the price tag for Anderson may be one that they feel is too high to pay.
Tonight is the deadline for the Spurs to match the offer.

The production and packaging of food products is a highly competitive industry that demands the most stringent standards of quality and hygiene. In this environment, fouling or contamination of food from even minor pest activity is totally unacceptable.
Our Proactive Pest Management service is designed specifically for food manufacturers to ensure that pest activity will not have a negative impact on your standards or those of your customers and auditors.
The service programme that we draw up is very specific to the facility and will take into account the particular pest threats according to the type of food processing (ambient, chilled, etc) and the input ingredients and output food products.
We provide the preventative controls to minimise the risk of an initial infestation, non-toxic treatments for any pest that does manage to penetrate the outer cordon and detection technology to highlight when intervention may be necessary.
Our specialist High Dependency Service Technicians and Field Biologists will work with you to define effective defences and will advise on working practices and procedures to reduce the risk of pests entering the facility or becoming a problem.
All the information from each service visit is captured on PestNetOnline, our online reporting tool. This highlights any signs of pest activity displayed on a site map of the plant along with actions taken and recommendations to reduce the risk. The transparent audit trail in case of any incident and is compatible with the main food manufacturing audit schemes.

Intrawests Franzs Trail development may look a little unfinished right now but they say some things are just beyond their control.
"Were doing as much as we can but were in a holding pattern," said John Morley, director of land development with Intrawest Placemaking, formerly the Resort Development Group.
Intrawest cannot complete its landscaping plans for the Creekside area because Whistler Creek is still flowing beside Highway 99, right in the middle of their landscaping plans.
The company had hoped to relocate the creek by now to the manmade channel under the new Highway 99 overpass at London Lane, but an old gasoline leak in that area has yet to be totally cleaned up.
The Petro-Canada leak, discovered a few years ago, has left a hydrocarbon "plume" of contaminated soil and ground water which extends southwest from the service station, beneath London Lane, Highway 99 and to the edge of the Whistler Creek Lodge property.
Currently environment officials and interested parties are involved in remediation efforts.
"I know theyre working on it," said Morley.
"I know they did some more drilling in the last couple of months but Im not sure exactly where they are."
Intrawest and the municipality had hoped to move the channel this month, during the two-week fisheries window in August, but approval from the Ministry of Water, Land and Air Protection is still pending.
"Were frustrated but we understand that you just cant snap your fingers and clean up these sites," said Morley.
"We have been finishing off as much landscaping as we can along the roadside edges."
At Mondays council meeting councillors also expressed their concerns about the site.
"Right now it looks like Fort Creekside," said Councillor Gordon McKeever bluntly.
They asked staff how long it would take to get the landscaping done but were told that the remediation is beyond both Intrawests and municipalitys control.
All they know is that the creek can only be moved during the August fisheries window and it will definitely not be moving this year.
Municipal Planning Analyst Chris Bishop said both sides were working hard to come up with something that is more aesthetically pleasing than the concrete structure currently facing the highway.
"Its a problem that we mutually want to solve," he said.
One of the suggestions at the meeting was to hang large photos, just like the work thats hanging from the Crystal Lodge scaffolding, as a way of masking the site.
Morley said once the creek is moved, Intrawest will finish its landscaping and the Valley Trail, which will run parallel to the highway on its east side.
"The edge that faces the highway will be backfilled right up to the top and landscaped," he reassured.
"You wont see any concrete walls like you do now."
Council also approved a development permit on Monday night which increased the size of the proposed Gateway Building at Franzs Trail from 3,500 square feet to 5,000 square feet. The additional square footage will be found in a mezzanine level.
McKeever commented that the proposed Gateway building, which will sit at the northeast corner of Highway 99 and Lake Placid Road, looks like a 5,000 square foot home. He said, tongue in cheek, that that design was somewhat fitting as a welcome to Whistler.
Intrawest asked for the additional square footage because they had trouble finding a tenant for the smaller restaurant.
They have since confirmed that Black Forest Restaurant will be taking over as the new tenant.
It will be a steak and schnitzel house.
These tenants used to be in the Crystal Lodge 14 years ago and are now coming back to Whistler.

Last year, Russian tuner TopCar showed us the shell of a 911 Turbo S that they had totally reskinned in carbon fibre. That eventually turned into the Stinger GTR and it looked pretty good and now, here's version 2.0 and it'll blow you away. This 911 Turbo S doesn't just get a whole lot of carbon fibre – its performance has been elevated by a considerable amount too.
Apart for the roof and parts of the door, everything is made out of carbon fibre. These guys sure have gone one step further than other tuners who usually just make a few components from the magical weave and best of all they have left it unpainted so you can see the extensive changes up close. You can buy the 17 piece set and then put it together yourself (if you're brave enough to try…) and TopCar charges Dh145,000 for it (the GT3-RS-style front fenders are separate and cost Dh16,000…) and the tuner also adds a custom exhaust system from Capristo and forged five-spoke, 21in alloys from ADV.1. They also spruced up the interior giving it new leather with white trim and a new steering wheel.
Bury the Porsches throttle and 650 horses will pin you back to your seat (the regular Turbo S has 573 horses…) and if you like what you see you better act fast; the Russian tuner is offering a limited run of just three of these carbon edition sportscars.

Mr. Phillippy will replace
"Speaking on behalf of our Board, we want to express our deepest gratitude for the outstanding work and wise counsel given by Geoffrey. His experience was invaluable as we began our journey as an independent public company four years ago. He will be sorely missed and we wish him well in his retirement," said
Mr. Phillippy was selected following an extensive national search in partnership with
Mr. Phillippy currently works as an independent consultant following his retirement in
Mr. Charron continued, "We are honored to have Bob join us to add his knowledge, experience, and counsel, especially given his extensive experience as a chief executive officer of a publicly traded company and his broad knowledge of marketing and highly technical products. It was extremely important to us that we recruit not only a very capable individual, but also someone who shares our common values and embraces our guiding principles."
The Company also announced today that the Board authorized an extension of the current stock repurchase plan (the "Plan") that was originally authorized in
Purchases may be made under various programs, including in open-market transactions, block transactions on or off an exchange, or in privately negotiated transactions, all in accordance with applicable securities laws and regulations, including Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Repurchases may also be made under a Rule 10b5-1 program, which would permit shares to be repurchased when the Company might otherwise be precluded from doing so under insider trading laws.
The extent to which the Company repurchases its shares, and the timing of such repurchases, will depend upon a variety of factors, including market conditions, regulatory requirements, and other corporate considerations, as determined by the Company's management team. The Company expects to finance the additional purchases with existing liquidity.
"Our Board and management believe the stock repurchase program demonstrates confidence in our growth strategies and a commitment to delivering shareholder value," said

So its April?!
What the fuck.
I literally cannot keep track of this year at all. It's been non stop, as a quick recap of the last 4 months of radio silence.
- We decorated the upstairs.
- Lincoln had a haircut and didn't scream like a banshee.
- We found out we are having another little boy.
- It snowed.
- We got really poorly!
- It was Toms birthday
- We bought a new truck!
- We made the most of the sunshine and spent lots of time walking and playing.
- Lincoln went for a sleepover at his Nana and Grandads
- Lincoln has begun to learn how to ride is big boy bike.
- Mothers Day was a lovely simple day.
- We explored some more
This Pregnancy has been super hard compared to Lincoln's. Which is really strange because with Lincoln I went in to pre term labour at 32 weeks, I had numerous bleeds and I was MASSIVE, like ridiculously huge. However this time around I'm fitter, healthier, smaller and yet this time I can barely roll over at night without wanting to cry in to my pillow with pain. I actually had sickness… or the sickness feeling this time around. But I refuse to moan to much because this baby is a complete blessing and we are so lucky!
With only a matter of weeks until my due date things are getting busier for us and soon I will be living my dream of working from home and raising my boys!
Since I first found out I was expecting Lincoln I always wanted to stay home with him and experience him growing and learning, That wasn't possible at the time and when he was 5 months old I returned back to work 3 days a week. This time I will be working from home which is a complete dream, giving me more of a chance to focus on my boys and my family as well as continue to help support our family.
To add to our journey through 2019 our biggest boy is going to be starting Primary School this September!! AHHHHH Which is utterly terrifying and heartbreaking and he's too little and I can't cope. But, it's going to be such an incredible adventure for him and us, I am praying when the time comes he will take it in his stride just like he has nursery but his attitude towards it isn't the best. It's less than 2 weeks until we find out his school placement and yes, he is still in denial that he's going to big boy school. (Your not alone their son) But my hope is that when he knows exactly which school he will be going too we can show it to him and get him a little more involved and interested.
Some upcoming posts for you guys.

First Look at Maison Kitsuné
Out of all the collections this season that would be considered "ready-to-wear," Maison Kitsune's SS15 line takes the cake. Stepping into the presentation room was like walking through the streets of a seaside town in southern France, naval colors were on full display amongst the menswear, which were paired with classic boat shoes and floridly bright tote bags. A full hound's-tooth suit and an outfit that was pure baseball fan Americana brought an added dose of character. The womenswear was a mix of outfits for casual stroll and sparkling executive wear. Facile tee's bearing the brand's logo were matched by precisely measured skirts and buckle shoes, while the other end of the spectrum saw a Chanel-esque pink suit that immediately evoked Jackie O and a Metropolis-like silver pantsuit complete with shirt cuffs and collar that was right out of "Express Yourself" era Madonna. For a collection so effortlessly casual, it's almost easy to forget the dedicated amount of craftsmanship put into each outfit in the ensemble.

America the Beautiful
Hello everyone! Leah here again, ready to show you how I have decorated my planner for July using the Hero Simple Set! The Fourth of July is one of my FAVORITE holidays. I try to remember to be grateful every day, but on this holiday especially, I am reminded of the strong appreciation I have for how far we have come as a nation, for all the people who have brought us here, and the heroes that continue to protect our freedom every day. I love all the traditions we have to celebrate this holiday… spending time with family, enjoying the summer weather, the fireworks and sparklers, the cookouts! The sense of celebration and patriotism really brings the American people closer together, even during times when the nation has felt the most divided. Because the month of July always makes me feel extra Patriotic, I decided to use the Hero Simple Set to add some U.S.A. themed décor to my planner!
One of my favorite papers in the Hero collection kit is the one titled "Brave." I love the shadow of the Continental U.S. map in the background. I wanted to find a way to incorporate this page into my planner so I decided to cut it in half and create a two-page decorative "dashboard" for the month of July. I chose to highlight the map by tracing all the states with a stitched white line, using a white Uni-Ball Signo gel pen. I really love the sewn effect it created!
To dress up the left page, I started with a red watercolor cardstock tag that I picked up in a pack at Michaels awhile back. I layered different colored paper strips and word phrases from the Hero 12x12 papers (using the title strips that many people trim off and throw away). I added a chipboard sticker from the Sunshine and Happiness collection (the girl with sunglasses) to make the page feel more fun and summery. I also added a gold glitter chipboard star I had in my stash (from Michaels), and used the white gel pen to draw in more of the white stitched lines.
At the top of the page, I added a title using a few more items from my craft stash. The yellow frames around the words are cut out of a card from the Life in Color SN@P! Pack. The letter stickers that spell out "America the Beautiful" are from the Sunshine and Happiness 12x12 Expressions cardstock sticker sheet. I added a couple small pieces of gold glitter washi tape, red-and-white string, and a sticker from the Hero 6x12 Fundamental Stickers sheet.
On the right side of my July dashboard, I used a blue watercolor tag as a base and added strips of yellow and gold glitter washi tape. I cut out the words from a 12x12 Elements sheet and arranged them how I wanted on the tag. I added some star stickers from the Fundamentals Sticker sheet and tied red-and-white string to the tag. I laid out the string how I wanted it on the page and then glued it in place.
The "July 2016" at the top of the page was created using more letter and number stickers from the Sunshine and Happiness 12x12 Expressions Sticker sheet. I also added more star stickers from the Hero sticker sheet and a wood veneer star from my stash (from the Life and Color collection).
For my July monthly layout, I used a 3-inch circle punch and banner punch to cut out a few shapes from the 12x12 papers in the Kit. All of the other pieces are cut out of the 12x12 Elements sheets or are stickers from the 6x12 sticker sheets.
Some more layered paper strips and words are in the center – I arranged them in a way that reminds me of a firework. In the bottom right corner, I used another blue watercolor tag and added a red United States sticker from the Fundamentals sticker sheet, blue glitter washi tape and some words printed using my label maker. I put the white star sticker over VA since that's my home! I used a marker to draw a stitched line around the edge of the tag and added some red string for a finishing touch.
My favorite part of this whole layout is the part with the red plane sticker. I got the idea to use the red-and-white string to create a flight path that ends with a blue star sticker, which is supposed to represent a "destination." Using my label maker, I typed out the words "My love spans across the miles." This part of the layout has special meaning to me because it reminds me of all the love my dad expressed across the miles during his many deployments as I was growing up.
I loved making my planner Patriotic for July! It can be so fun to let yourself run away with a theme in your layouts! I may have also gone a little crazy in the Target dollar spot and bought a few red, white and blue sticky notes and pens to use in my planner as well…
Happy Independence Day everyone!

When cosmonaut and psychologist Kris Kelvin is dispatched to investigate to the Solaris space station to investigate strange goings on, he experiences the same strange phenomena that afflict the remaining crew, sending him on a voyage into the darkest recesses of his consciousness. Adapted from the novel by Stanislaw Lem, Tarkovsky's Solaris is a hugely influential and brilliantly original piece of science fiction.
Event details
Freelance Film educator, Maggie Hoffgen, joins us for a post-screening discussion following the screening on Wed 9 Mar.

Number Two (also known as Leoben Conoy, or just Leoben) is a humanoid Cylon model. First encountered on Ragnar Anchorage by the crew of the Battlestar Galactica following the final Cylon attack on the Twelve Colonies, a Number Two called himself Leoben Conoy and said he was an arms dealer who had taken refuge on the station followng the Cylon attack. Isolated with (then) Commander Adama, Leoben was apparrently ill, with Adama guessing correctly it was radiation illness caused by the radiation surrounding the station. This radiation only effected Cylons. Revealed as a Cylon during conversation, Number Two exhibited abnormal strength levels as he attempted to kill Adama, but he was bludgeoned to death by Adama. Prior to his death, Leoben revealed to humanity that Cylons had ressurection technology as he would download into a new body.
Some time later, another Number Two was found to be hiding in the Colonial Fleet on the Gemenon Traveller. This Cylon was captured and interrogated by Kara "Starbuck" Thrace. During interrogation, this Number Two exhibited a philosophical and reilgious bent, delighting in mind games involving disorienting philosophical discourses that entwined truth with lies. This version of Number Two was eventually executed by order of President Laura Roslin. The encounter though saw the Number Twos become fascinated with Kara Thrace and her role in the future of humanity.
Number Twos like mind games, are physically the strongest of the humanoid Cylon models being able to snap handcuffs and toss people around like rag dolls. They are more interested in religious and philosophical mattters than fellow Cylons. They are adept at confusing their enemies by combining lies and truth in attempting to manipulate their opponents. They are also known to have displayed prescient ability. Number Twos are also the most cunning of the Cylon humanoid models.
In the game, you speak to Number Two/Leoben to:
- Get new daily assignments;
- Turn in completed non-combat daily assignments (e.g. system patrol); and
- Obtain some information about the game's set up and background.
Number Two/Leoben may be found in the CIC on the on the Basestar located in 242 Apollid.

Fan fiction by takenplay.
The Narrow Gauge Engines of Sodor work high in the mountains at the Quarry and the mine. Sir Handel is one of these engines. But both he and his best friend Duncan, unlike the others, hate work.

Thumper had caused havoc at the quarry many years ago, when his drilling arms had caused a boulder to slip from it's mountain top perch and chase Rusty, Skarloey and Rheneas before nearly murdering Percy when it crashed into a shed.
Freddie bustled in. "Who is that?!" Rheneas sighed, "That's Thumper." And he told Freddie about the boulder…

text: Make your home even more cozy this winter with proper humidification Posted January 3, 2017 It's not the heat, it's the almost nonexistent humidity. Humidity is something that people only look to indicate during the summer, but lack of humidity in your home could be harmfully influencing your indoor air quality and your comfort. As much time as we fill in our home, specifically when it's wintertime, a whole-home humidifier could really upgrade your comfort and also your health. Staying Healthy Having the appropriate humidity levels in your home can help stop the spread of infection. Air deficient in humidity dries out the mucus membranes inside your sinuses, which clean out bacteria. Dry air also intensifies the likelihood of colds and flus in the colder months. In addition, bacteria and viruses have a more difficult time drifting in moist air. Keeping your home at ideal humidity could help you carry on feeling well throughout the coming season. Ease Static Electricity Is your hair standing on end? Have you been shocking your family and pets? Hearing your sweater pop as you put it on? You may have a humidity predicament. Moisture in the air lets static charges to depart things in the room because water conducts electricity; with no water in the air the charge has nowhere to go, and someone is sure to get shocked. Increased Comfort Whole-home humidifiers allow your home feel more comfortable during the colder seasons. Just like a humid day in the summer feels warmer than it actually is, humidity in the winter will in fact make you feel warmer. Not only will the appropriate humidity level keep you at ease, it could also help save you money. If you feel warmer you won't have to crank up your thermostat to stay cozy. There are many more benefits to keeping your home adequately humidified. Our whole-home humidity products will improve both your indoor air quality and your comfort. They could also lower your monthly bills in the process. We'd love to answer any uncertainties you may have about humidifiers or any other indoor air quality apprehensions.

1. Firstly, choose a size of sideboard that is right for you and your home. Yes, those 7ft long numbers might look amazing, but if your space is on the smaller side, you may want to tone it down and go for something that fits with what you've got. It's the style that makes a sideboard, and big isn't necessarily better. Decide where the sideboard is going to go: do you need additional storage in the hallway, or is it going to line up along a wall in your dining area? Make your mind up and you'll be able to measure up the area you're looking at and pick out a model that fits perfectly.
2. Now that you've chosen a size of sideboard that will fit snugly into its allocated space, it's time to decide what manufacturer you're going to go for. G Plan is an obvious choice – their British made sideboards are the last word in mid-century cool and they have retained their appeal for decades because they are such quality, robust pieces of furniture. That being said, there are plenty of other craftsmen who have made beautiful mid-century style sideboards over the years, too, so don't get too hung up on finding a G Plan model – do a bit of online research and you may find an unbranded piece that is absolutely perfect. Create a Pinterest board of options you find online and see if you can imagine them working well alongside the rest of the furniture in your living space.
3. Deciding how to use your sideboard is lots of fun because there are so many options to choose from. Maybe you'll opt to turn it into a liquor cabinet, storing alcohol and your best glasses inside, and perhaps a decanter of whisky on the top – they make fantastic little home bars! Or maybe you'll pop your TV on top of it and store the DVD player and X Box inside, creating a modern-day multimedia cabinet from a piece of design history. If you go for this option, you may need to pop your DIY hat on and drill a hole in the back to feed the wires through, but that's easily done and brings your sideboard right into the 21st century. Sideboards can also be used to look after Christmas decorations until the winter rolls around. If you find one with a set of drawers, use it to store table linen and your finest cutlery and porcelain, or, if you're at a loss for what to do with a ton of children's toys, why not allocate a couple of the sideboard's cupboards to those?
4. Styling your sideboard is perhaps the best bit! Give your sideboard pride of place and top it with some carefully chosen family photographs and a jug of freshly cut flowers. If you're worried about damaging the wood by resting drinks on the sideboard, make a runner to go the length of its surface, using a beautiful strip of vintage fabric that compliments your colour scheme.
