Positive pic of the week #8
This weeks Positive pic is shoes.
I got these shoes this week as a present from the Mr for my birthday. I don't normally like pointed toe shoes, I think they just make my feet look bigger! These however I think look lovely. This is surprising considering that myself and the man have completely different tastes and never agree when it comes to style!
I love the colour and the fact that there are straps around the ankle as me and high heels are not really the best of friends, so having some support to walk in them is a must! I have quite a few parties coming up, including a 40th, 50th and 60th so I am glad I have some new shoes to wear.
What has made you happy this week? Come and add your positive pic at the bottom of the page.

Contributions of local researcher will be missed
"It was partly a gift," Gordon Mitchell said of his foray into genealogy in a May 12, 2012, Reminder article. "I was given an assignment in junior high school to research my family. I always loved history, and my grandfather had already traced his roots back seven generations." Mitchell continued to pass on his own gifts of knowledge and resources until his death Jan. 7.
Kathy Maurer
Copy Editor
I was stunned to see the photo and obituary for Gordon Mitchell in the Jan. 9 Banner. After all, he'd just been to the office six days earlier, handing me documents far more priceless than the plain gray folder that held them.
Later, looking at that same folder, I shook my head, tottering between disbelief and heartache, knowing what the community had lost.
I met Gordon several years ago in the Michigan Room at the old library on Church Street across from the courthouse. As people do in a tiny room packed with yellowed clippings, random scrapbooks and old city directories, we exchanged stories of roadblocks and successes in our genealogy pursuits.
Our skills, however, were hardly comparable. I dabbled. Gordon, on the other hand, was a professional genealogist, hired not only by individuals curious about their family trees, but also by law offices seeking to settle obscure inheritance issues or determine the rightful owner of old stock certificates. He'd been sought to reconstruct historical events. He also worked over the course of two years researching Boston Tea Party descendants prior to the 2012 opening of a new museum in that Massachusetts city. Of course, I didn't know any of this at the time.
I'd occasionally see Gordon at the new library after I began working as copy editor at the paper. When local historian Esther Walton retired, this column just sort of fell into my hands. Previously called "From Time to Time," the name was changed to "Turning Back the Pages," to reflect that the columns are often reprints of articles compiled by Esther or others. Not always, however.
Sometimes, I come across a clipping in our archives or glimpse an old Banner story on microfilm at the library that warranted new attention, such as the Royal Coach company that built travel trailers in a factory now being eyed for new housing in Hastings. Anniversaries, such as 150 years since the Civil War or a century after World War I, seemed worthy of articles. But nothing as nicely summarized and packaged as Esther's work existed for such topics.
Spurred by new discoveries or growing curiosity, and given a few spare minutes, I'll see what I can find online, in our old files or on microfilm at the library. After weeks of such fragmented research, I will have collected enough material to complement or update the original clipping. Sometimes, though, tiny but important pieces are missing, no matter where I look.
Gordon was a safety net in such instances. He had assembled a huge, invaluable collection of information on local people and families. A few times each year, I'd email him, asking if, by chance, he had the missing date, mother's maiden name, a middle initial or other bit of elusive information.
This week's column was one such challenge. The first female probate judge in the state of Michigan should have been easy to research. She wasn't. A lack of information on Ella Eggleston delayed this column. The best resource was an index – compiled in 2005 by Gordon Mitchell, no less – that included dates of Banner articles on Judge Eggleston. Still, holes remained, such as where she went to high school, whether she attended college and what year her divorce was finalized.
Gordon always came through, often providing more information than I'd requested. Responding to my questions regarding Judge Eggleston, he sent along information he'd found on a subscription genealogy site. He also suggested that her brother's obituary might have one answer, directed me to a book at the library, and expressed the same bewilderment that more had not been written about this leading lady.
He followed that up with a visit to our office several days later to drop off the gray folder containing articles and documents he'd found. He might as well have given me a sack of gold. I was thrilled. He wasn't expecting anything in return. He never did.
Over the years, he would bring in articles he came across and thought we might like to reprint. He also delivered spiral-bound collections he'd compiled – as resources for himself – but he kindly shared copies with the library and the Banner. That 2005 index of names he assembled from thousands of note cards compiled by Esther Walton is one such treasure. He also painstakingly indexed names from the 1918 Banner and gave us a copy of his records. That particular index was a tremendous help as I researched and wrote a series of articles on local men who died in World War I.
Gordon was a quiet, unassuming, generous gentleman. He'd spent 20 years in the U.S. Army, working in military intelligence as a linguist. He was fluent in German, Korean and Hungarian. He'd earned bachelor's and master's degrees. Later in life, he visited area nursing homes, playing music on the Omnichord, an electronic keyboard. He crafted pens with wooden bodies, each with its own story, giving many as gifts.
He could have bided his time at libraries in Kalamazoo, Battle Creek or even the state library in Lansing. Instead, he drove regularly from Hickory Corners to Hastings, sometimes delivering miscellaneous folders or spiral-bound treasures. He also graciously helped visitors or callers with research at the Hastings library.
A bachelor, he has no descendants, but he left volumes of information for future generations. As for me, right now, the most precious volume is the plain gray folder he handed to me days before he died. But I know it won't be long before I will be reaching for one of the other resources Gordon so kindly shared. And years from now, others will come across his indexes at the Hastings library and feel like they've struck gold. Thank you, Gordon, from me and from unnamed future researchers.

GRANITE CITY — A new restaurant is warming stomachs with a riff on classic comfort food. Lascelles has recently opened in the former Guardian Savings Bank building at 1324 Niedringhaus Ave.
Granite City attorney Lance Callis purchased the building from the city for $32,500 in January 2012. His vision for the former bank included a restaurant on the first floor.
The building was part of several other purchases by the attorney in downtown Granite City.
Callis decided to act as a developer in the downtown area after witnessing the success of the Granite City Cinema. Callis, his daughter Melissa and some partners formed Lascelles Group LLC to spearhead redevelopment in the City Hall area. The new restaurant adopts its name from the partnership.
Early work to the 1920s building included asbestos removal, electrical updates, masonry repairs and new windows. There was a conscious effort to retain elements of the building's history. The original solid granite floors were restored and a period-accurate tin ceiling was installed.
Executive Chef Eric Brenner oversaw restaurant construction in 2014. Brenner, a St. Louis native, is no stranger to the restaurant business and has acted as a consultant for other openings. The restaurant further pays homage to the old Guardian bank. The new bar is where the teller windows were located and the former vault acts as a walk-in cooler.
After three years of renovation and development, the doors to Lascelles opened to the public on Valentine's Day. A conscious effort was made to be affordable across income levels. Lunch selections are kept around $10, while "supper" entrees are $20 and less.
The menu offers Brenner's interpretations of comfort-classics: filet medallions with a twice-baked potato stand-in for the American staple "meat and potatoes." For "chicken and dumplings," Brenner uses a smoked half-chicken and potato gnocci.
For dessert, diners can enjoy a variety of "sweets," including spins on childhood favorites like s'mores, and cookies and milk. A full bar offers a wine selection and classic cocktails. A 12-tap draft serves up a selection of regional craft beers.
Lascelles is located at 1324 Niedringhaus in Granite City. The restaurant is open 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday and closed on Sunday. For information, visit www.lascellesgc.com.

Seriously, do you truly know what they want?
Or are you just assuming because of what every other photographer sells?
Or maybe, because you have your reasons, you dictate to your prospects what they will buy?
Think about it, you are going to spend anything from £100 or $100 upwards, sometimes way upwards, and you have a choice between someone offering exactly what you want or someone who has decided that you can only buy certain things. Which are you going to choose?
I asked this question in the Prosperous Photographer Community earlier today (you can join free at this link) and someone asked me if this was about specialisation and wasn't it important to specialise?
Here is part of my response:
No, it isn't about specialising in the type of photography you do, i.e. weddings, commercial etc because they all have very different audiences. It is more about what you offer your chosen audience and more importantly, what your chosen audience wants. Does that make sense?
It is about understanding what your audience wants and finding a way to give it that works for both of you.
Asking you to think about whether you really know what your clients want, or whether you have assumed.
Let's take an example. Commercial photography. How do you deliver the final product – is it in a manner that works well for you, or is it in a way that say small businesses want?
So I am a small business owner. I book a photographer to do a commercial shoot and the images are delivered as high res files via a download.
With my crappy rural internet connection it is going to take ages to download and tie up my internet at the same time. I would love it, and pay more as an upgrade, if the photographer gave me the option to have them mailed to me on a USB stick. I would also love it if the photographer also offered low res versions of each image prepped for 3 social media channels with my logo water marked on each image so that all I had to do was post the images to my social media channel. Again as an upgrade.
Think about it, for most small business owners, who are probably trying to do a gazillion things at once with a to do list longer than the Amazon River, resizing images and adding their logo to them is a real faff. They don't have Lightroom.
That would be money well spent, and it would be cheaper for me than spending time doing that as I could invest that time into my business getting more clients.
Do you see what I am getting at now? When you truly know what your audience wants, and offer it to them, you can actually be a lot more profitable.
And please anyone don't tell me that people won't pay for that. They will, IF they are shown the value. IF they are shown how it will benefit and repay them. At the moment many photographers websites do not show that value, they show photography as a commodity. And commodities are compared on price. It is the photographer's responsibility to demonstrate that value, not the consumer's job to search and uncover that value.

Are we Listening to Bob Marley?
By Julian "Jingles" Reynolds
Natural Mystic
Lyrics by Bob Marley
There's a natural mystic blowing through the air;
If you listen carefully now you will hear.
This could be the first trumpet, might as well be the last:
Many more will have to suffer,
Many more will have to die - don't ask me why.
My brethren, the reggae icon from Jamaica, the late Robert Nesta Marley was as much a prophet and visionary as he was a singer and song writer. His lyrics for the song "Natural Mystic" convey one of the most profound messages, rivaling any similar passages in the Holy Bible, the Torah, or the Holy Quran.
The slaughtering of 27 people including 20 innocent little children at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut has shocked and repulsed the world, and in particular the American people. That it happened so close to the Christmas holidays and in the middle of the Jewish celebration of Hanukkah, and on the east coast so close to the communications center of the world, New York, makes the impact inescapable.
President Obama as he addressed the nation a few hours after the devastating incident wiped tears from his eyes from the heartfelt grief, shared by millions of Americans, and peoples of the world. But this heart wrenching feeling is one experienced continuously by thousands of people in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Yemen, Palestine, Israel, Syria, Africa, where wars fought with bombs dropped by planes on targets thousands of miles away, and missiles launched, unable to discern fighters from civilians, destroy the lives of innocent people. This feeling of grief, horror and helplessness grips the parents of children slaughtered in drone attacks used by the United States in fighting terrorists in these Middle East and African countries. It is felt too frequently in America's inner cities by parents losing children to violence perpetrated by criminals using illegally purchased guns.
The U.S. Government and people accept the losses by others in far off countries as "collateral damage" necessary to get rid of the hard to get at terrorists bent on destroying America. They shun those lives lost at home in urban, mostly African-American and Hispanic communities, to gun violence. But these too are human lives. That this slaughter of innocent little children has now come home to America in this season of family, love, happiness, and good spirits, is a signal from what Bob Marley describes as a natural mystic: for us to pause and honestly check ourselves.
No act is more depraved than the harming of children, whether it is by one selfish, evil individual with firearms suitable to fight a war, or by governments giving orders to launch missiles by the click of a mouse or push of a button. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. It is a message from Jesus Christ in Matthew chapter 7, verse 12. It should be the fundamental guiding principle of human co-existence.
Once again, Americans are asked to rethink the laws governing the manufacturing, purchase and intended use of guns in this country. Too often easy access to guns by troubled minds, used in senseless acts are taking innocent lives. Connecticut is one of the leading firearms manufacturing states in the US, home for some of the oldest and best known companies manufacturing firearms and military weaponry. Available statistics reveal "over 300 million" firearms are owned by Americans, with a population of 311 million.
According to a recent ABC-TV report, Guns in America, citing statistics from the U.S. Department of Justice, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, 5,459,240 firearms were manufactured in America in 2010, and 3,252,404 guns were imported in 2011. From 1986 to present not less than three million firearms were manufactured each year in the U.S. Many of these guns end up in other countries like Jamaica, Mexico, Trinidad, Guyana, and Guatemala causing thousands of causalities and more suffering in these countries. And while the U.S. government continues to spend millions in resources to combat illegal drugs entering the U.S. nothing is being said or done to stem the flow of illegal guns being exported.
Despite the many issues that will be discussed once again around the killing of the innocents by gun-crazed individuals; gun control, mental health, the preponderance of violent television shows, video games, in the cinema; the fundamental ones, the monies generated in the manufacturing and dealing of firearms, and the spiritual connectedness of the human existence, the balance of the universe, will not be. The belief that every action is balanced by a reaction, sooner or later, is ridiculed and dismissed by those well privileged, educated and immersed in the comforts of their present existence, as nonsense coming from "leftist," "pacifist," and "anti-Americans". America is in denial.
The "natural mystic" that Marley sings of must be applied to this havoc, brought home so close at this time, one of the holiest on the Christian calendar. Is it just coincidence that the slaughtering of these children and women by someone, at the still young age of 20, took place in Sandy Hook, only a few weeks following one of the most destructive natural disasters to hit the American east coast, Hurricane Sandy? There is a natural mystic blowing through the air. Shelve the arrogance, chest thumping mightier than you attitude, and take heed.
(Julian "Jingles" Reynolds is a writer, filmmaker and entrepreneur, and operates in the United States and Jamaica. His novel "A Reason for Living" will be published in 2013.)

President Trump has repeatedly vowed to put pressure on American companies that outsource jobs or manufacture products destined for the U.S. market abroad. Several companies recently announced billions of dollars in new U.S. manufacturing investments, with plans to create thousands of new jobs. General Motors not long ago committed to a $1 billion investment in U.S. factories. Hyundai has allocated more than $3 billion to support factories in Georgia and Alabama. Walmart says they will create approximately 10,000 jobs in the U.S. this year. The list goes on, and on.
On Wednesday, May 24, the world's leading manufacturer of air conditioning systems will celebrate the opening of its Daikin Texas Technology Park (DTTP), a Four Million Square Foot technology-driven manufacturing facility (big enough for 74 football fields under one roof). It will employ nearly 5,000 American workers.
Daikin spent more than $400 million to construct the facility on a 500-acre site just outside Houston, TX. The Texas Technology Park will manufacture energy-efficient cooling products for residential and commercial use in The United States and North America. The AC units will be sold under the Daikin, Goodman® and Amana® brand names.
On May 24th, Kari Durham, Director of Public Information for Daikin Texas Technology Park, will be available to talk with you about this milestone in U.S. manufacturing, the jobs it will create and how it will benefit U.S. consumers looking for American-made AC.

How to make sure you choose a facilitator who will deliver what you want for your away day or corporate retreat and won't let you down.
Many people who contact us have not used a facilitator before and, often, are acting on behalf of others ? maybe the rest of your team or your boss.
Send for our comprehensive guide: "How to Choose a Facilitator"
Choosing the right facilitator for your event is a big challenge. You will probably start with Google unless you have contacts who might be able to make a recommendation. But remember that someone who was successful in one situation might not be appropriate in another.
Once you have selected some prospects you will need to find out more about them.
Here are some initial questions to help you:
You needn't be too concerned that they have worked with similar organisations in the past. Rather, consider how flexible they appear to be, how they have approached working in different situations
Again, this does not have to be identical with your organisation, but if the facilitator does not have corporate experience or has not worked with charities, for example, you will need to ask more searching questions. What are your credentials?
You should not expect formal facilitation qualifications; it is the richness of a person?s background that can contribute to a successful facilitator. However, you should be reassured that they have a sound educational basis, preferably a record of recent continuing professional development.
This is a simple, practical question. Facilitators might have been consultants, trainers, coaches, public speakers, academics; they might have been in sports or in business or they might have been made redundant or taken early retirement and see facilitation as an attractive option.
Understanding their background will give you some clues to their approach.
You should be reassured that the facilitator is able to draw on a wide range of appropriate tools, and not use a favoured few because that?s all they know.
It is certainly valuable if your facilitator offers a pre-meeting at which you can jointly agree on the outcomes, discuss particular challenges and agree on outcomes. It can often be helpful to meet each participant in advance and might also be useful to be able to follow up with individual coaching or specific training.
Find out whether your facilitator is also a professional consultant, coach or trainer. Do they have specialist skills or knowledge that could be incorporated or could be relevant to follow-up work?
You will be looking for someone who will design a programme to suit your needs ? not an automatic off the shelf approach.
However, an experienced facilitator will have a few basic rules that they work by. For example, Brefi Group favours a pre-event briefing and discussion at least a week before the event.
This question will help you to appreciate the facilitator's variety of experience and their sensitivity to environment when organising an event.
This is not to suggest that your team will be causing problems, but rather to tease out the facilitator?s approach to the participants, their self confidence and the skills they bring.
This is important so that you can compare different proposals; it will also tell you something about their philosophy and their sensitivity to clients? budgetary needs.
A facilitator's fee provides important information about the person, their position in the market and their typical clients.
Cost is always a consideration when hiring a facilitator, but it should not be a deciding factor, especially if the outcome is important. Remember that the facilitator's fee is only one part of the total cost. There is also venue, travel, accommodation and the opportunity cost of the participants? time. Set against this is the value of the outcome.
You should not need to ask this question because a good facilitator will want to ask you some key questions anyway. Just note how interactive they are.

As a plant, kelp is a remarkable water filter; it promotes biodiversity by attracting marine life where it grows; it can protect shorelines, and it is a powerful force in lowering carbon dioxide in our atmosphere. As a food, kelp is a rich source of omega-3s, fiber, and other nutrients. The benefits of growing and eating kelp have innumerable benefits to our planet, health, and local economy and ecosystem.

We've all heard it before, "I've got to go home and get my beauty sleep." But is 'beauty sleep' a real thing or just an excuse to leave a really boring party?
Scientists from Sweden performed a study where they showed 23 subjects (men and women varying in age between 18 and 31) to a panel of 65 students. The subjects were photographed after a good nights sleep and then again after being kept awake for 31 hours straight (after just a five hour sleep).
The panel was shown the photographs and asked to rate the images, between zero and 10, for attractiveness, tiredness and health.
Researchers believe that our evolutionary process attracts us to people who look better rested as this is a sign of health and strength – and healthier babies!
If you're not getting the beauty sleep you should be, check out our Top 10 Tips for Better Sleep.
(Ensure you're getting the most restful sleep possible by using Go Dark nightly!)

The marked chromatic aberration of a Fresnel-zone-plate lens can be used as a variable narrow-band optical filter, and thus a holographic spectrometer. The filtering properties of the zone plate are analyzed, with particular emphasis on the effect of a central stop over the low-order rings. It is shown that the central stop can markedly improve the rejection of frequencies outside the pass band without significant degradation of the spectrometer resolution.

Has anyone ever asked you this question as their own dog or young child approaches your dog eager to interact?
Perhaps they should ask a different question. How about "would your dog mind meeting my dog?" or "Would your dog mind if my child strokes him?" And how about asking this question while still at a distance so the dog's owner has the chance to give a response?
An owner might not want to say "no, my dog is not friendly", because that might be seen to imply that their dog is aggressive. It might simply be that their dog doesn't enjoy interacting with strange dogs or people, even though it would be unlikely to bite (any dog can bite, but this dog may not have any history or high likelihood of biting). Would you be able to tell if your dog doesn't enjoy the interaction in the absence of any growling or other signs of "aggression"?
When children used to ask if Sheba was friendly, I used to say she was because she had no history of biting children. However, as time went on I noticed she was giving signals that she didn't enjoy being stroked by children she didn't know. She never growled or bit, but there were subtle signs.
The signals dogs provide about how they might be feeling are visible in their body language, and they spend many of their waking hours signalling their feelings either consciously or unconsciously. One such signal that you will almost certainly see in your dog, if you look for it, is the tongue flick. This is often given if we approach a dog head on, which may make the dog feel a little uncomfortable.
Another common signal is the head turn, at which Buster is particularly adept.
After I realised Sheba wasn't enjoying interactions with strange children I used to tell them that she didn't bite, but she just didn't enjoy being stroked. Luckily I had a big snuggle bug in the form of Teddy!
I believe we should allow our dogs to make choices about their own body when it is possible to do so. Once I understood that Sheba didn't enjoy being stroked by children she didn't know, I respected her wishes and prevented it from happening.
Buster had to spend yesterday at the vet having some dental surgery. When I came to take him home he was woozy from the aneasthetic. While I was paying, an extremely excitable and friendly young beagle dragged his way forward, straining to sniff Buster. Buster looked at the beagle and then turned his back on it (an extremely clear signal). I told the dog and owner that Buster didn't feel like making friends as he was recovering from surgery. The owner responded by immediately removing his dog to a more comfortable distance from Buster.
Dogs are epic at reading our body language. However, they cannot speak English. As dog lovers we should strive to understand our dogs better so that we can be their voice. On the whole, my experience of dogs is that they are extremely tolerant. When I have found intolerance in dogs, it is usually because all their subtle signals of discomfort have been ignored. When I visit clients I often explain the signals dogs give, so that dog and owner can live in better harmony and overcome any problems together. I think that's really what owners want, and it is certainly what their dogs would with for.

There have been approvals and a lot of disapprovals of the use of steroids by the sports and medical industry. However, it is important to note that there is a positive side of the use of steroids that very many people do not know of and this has been the main motivation for athletes to continue using them.It is also true that most of the companies that manufactured these substances have continued to improve them in terms of quality and the reduction of risks. In many of the different sports in the world, a lot of regulations are given regarding the use of steroids and athletes have to be very careful because apart from that, they will be penalized. Because of the reduction of risks involved with steroids, it would be important to look at the positive side so that you can understand more about the benefits. However, it'll be important to realize that, using steroids will require a lot of supervision from medical practitioners or professionals. There is a lot of variety when it comes to the steroids that are being made by companies today. Some of these steroids are known to have better positive effects as compared to others and it would be good if you did your research before starting to use them.
The prices of the steroids always depend on some factors for example, the regulations given by the government and sporting authorities. More athletes can now start using steroids especially because the companies that make them are making sure that the prices are reducing. Most of the steroids always come with a lot of instructions or what you are supposed to do and what you should not do in taking the steroids. Most of the companies that make the steroids are very careful about giving instruction on how to use the steroids, you should always ensure that you use them so that you can reduce the side effects. Monitoring your performance levels is very important and it is something that you have to be serious about so that you can watch over your health.
One of the good things about steroids is that they help you to increase your energy levels, by doing this, they allow you to increase productivity. Concentration levels and focus also become higher because of the increased energy levels and the effects of the steroids. Your body health also becomes better by using some of the steroids because they are embedded with vitamins. Some of the steroids have also had a positive effect on the moods and also hormonal balances within the body.

The move, which is expected to cost the U.S. nearly $1 trillion over the next 30 years. Comes midst the Trump Administration's drive to overhaul and boost the defense industry of the country.
In a significant development the Pentagon has disclosed that the U.S. Air Force has awarded Boeing Co and Northrop Grumman Corp separate contracts to continue their work on the replacement of the aging Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile system.
The re-awarding of the Ground-Based Strategic Deterrent (GBSD) contract from midst the U.S. getting tough with China-backed North Korea.
The development also underscores the Trump Administration's desire to overhaul and upgrade the country's aging ICBM system and its nuclear cruise missiles.
"The Minuteman III is 45 years old. It is time to upgrade," said Air Force Chief of Staff General David Goldfein said in a statement.
While Boeing was awarded a $349 million three-year contract, Northrop Grumman was also awarded a three year $328 million contract.
The relatively small contract amount is a milestone. It will allow both companies to parallelly continue their detailed development and prototyping for the replacement of the Minuteman missile system.
As per the Pentagon's office of Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation (CAPE), the upgradation and replacement program will cost the U.S. $85 billion, however as the Air Force's assessment it will cost around $62 billion.
As per Frank McCall, the Director of Boeing's Strategic Deterrence Systems, "Since the first Minuteman launch in 1961, the U.S. Air Force has relied on our technologies for a safe, secure and reliable ICBM force."
Incidentally, it was Boeing which prototyped and developed the ground-based nuclear Minuteman III missile system.
Northrop Grumman's chief Wes Bush said in a statement, "We look forward to the opportunity to provide the nation with a modern strategic deterrent system that is secure, resilient and affordable."
Secretary of the Air Force Heather Wilson said, "We are moving forward with modernization of the ground-based leg of the nuclear triad."
The modernization of U.S. nuclear forces is estimated to cost the country more than $350 billion over the next decade. According to some analysts, replacing the country's aging machines of of war, including bombs, nuclear bombers, missiles and submarines is likely to cost $1 trillion over the next 30 years.
"Our missiles were built in the 1970s. Things just wear out, and it becomes more expensive to maintain them than to replace them," said Wilson.

Like most people, the Homes.com team is obsessed with The Bachelor, and with just six contestants remaining, we can't wait to see how Arie's season ends.
While the end of a season and the selection of a winner is the obvious highlight of the show, there was actually something we noticed at the start of the season that got us thinking a little deeper when it comes to America's favorite reality show. Namely, it felt like there were a lot of Laurens on the show.
Sure enough, there were four different Laurens, making it the most common first name for contestants this season… The more we thought about this excess of Laurens, we wondered what the most common contestant name in Bachelor history is, and then we started pondering other statistics about the women who have appeared on the seasons of The Bachelor, like what jobs they typically have, how old they are, and especially what cities and states contestants most commonly call home.
We decided to get some answers for ourselves by digging into the information the show has given us on all the women from season one to now. Once we did, we realized the information was just too good not to share it with The Bachelor Nation! So without further ado, here's our exclusive Bachelor Breakdown:
It was nice to find out we weren't crazy about it feeling like there has been an absolute ton of Laurens on this show over the years, with 15 different contestants having the name, the most of any sobriquet over the course of the show's history. The next closest names, Sarah, Ashley, and Amber, all clock in with 10 contestants, only two-thirds as many as the Laurens!
In a minor surprise, neither New York nor Los Angeles are able to claim the title of the city the most Bachelor contestants call home, with that honor instead going to Chicago by a surprisingly wide margin. For anyone out there with dreams of finding love on The Bachelor, it might be time to look for a new home in the Windy City!
Want to maximize your chances of being selected for the show but don't want to deal with the Midwestern cold in Chicago? Well, don't worry, because while Chi-town may be the individual city that has sent the most women to the show, sunny California is the state that has churned out the most contestants, doubling the second place contender, Florida. This means that making the West Coast home may be just the thing someone needs to catch the eye of a producer!
If it sometimes feels like the show is populated exclusively by women in their mid-20s, it's because it basically is! The ages of 24, 25, and 26 are easily the most common contestant ages in show history, with at least 75 women appearing on the show while they were those ages.
While America may have a shortage of teachers, The Bachelor definitely doesn't. Educators are among the most common contestants on the show, ironically beating out "student" for the top spot.
Just because certain places produce the MOST contestants, doesn't mean it produces the BEST ones. To figure out which cities produce the contestants that are the best at playing The Bachelor game, we took our research on the most common cities contestants call home and averaged how many roses contestants from those cities earned on the show. For all of these rose averages, we only used information on contestants from seasons that have already aired, excluding the current season for these parts of our analysis.
While Chicago sends the most women to the show, these women frequently find themselves back on the shores of Lake Michigan in short order, with only contestants from San Diego, Los Angeles, and New York earning fewer roses on average. There must be something special in the water in Atlanta and Dallas, however, as those are the only cities in our top 10 that produce contestants that average more than four roses while on the show.
The Bachelor is all about matters of the heart, so it makes sense that the most successful occupation on the show is the one that knows the most about taking care of the heart (and the rest of the human body)! Of the 10 most common occupations, nurses have historically done the best, garnering four and a half roses on average. Students, on the other hand, still have a lot to learn about love as they fare the worst in our analysis, averaging just 2.8 roses.
Things got pretty interesting when it came to how well contestants of different ages perform on the show, especially when considering the overall age breakdown from earlier. While age 36 is one of the least common ages ever on the show with just two contestants, those women earned an incredible six roses on average, putting them in strong contention for a ring!
On the flip side, it seems like nobody likes you when you're 25, at least on The Bachelor. While that is the most common contestant age overall, it is also essentially the worst performing age. If it weren't for the only 39-year-old in the show's history – season six's Melinda – earning a single rose, the worst average rose total would belong to the 25-year-olds, who only earn two roses on average.
Interestingly, by breaking down the number of roses given out to women from each state, we found that women from the top corners of the country as well as states in the middle of America have done well for themselves over the years. Maine and Oregon have seen their contestants earn nine and seven roses on average, respectively, while Wisconsin, Iowa, Arkansas, and Louisiana average at least four and a half roses each. West Virginia takes the top overall spot thanks to that state's only representative, season 15 winner and eventual Bachelorette, Emily Maynard.
Remember all those Laurens from earlier? Well, they do pretty… average for themselves, honestly. Of the ten most popular contestant names, four perform better than the Laurens while five do worse. Leading the way is the name, Jennifer, at 4.88 roses on average, while Amy is the only top 10 name to get less than two roses, with an average of just 1.71.
So what does it all mean? Aside from revealing just how much time we spend thinking about this show, it helps us put together a profile of what the ideal Bachelor contestants would look like. So if you're a 36-year-old nurse named Jennifer looking for love, it might just be time to check the listings on Homes.com to find the perfect Atlanta home to maximize your chances of Bachelor success!

The Credo Gryphons crushed the Cornerstone Christian Cougars, 52-12, last Wed., Feb. 13 in a playoff game held in Santa Rosa.
It was an uneven matchup. The Gryphons are running hot this year with a 6-2 league record and are the third seed in the NCS Division 6 Championship; meanwhile, the Cougars are a bit cold as the 14th seed. The seasonal record heavily favored the Gryphons and they didn't disappoint.
"A year ago we played Rincon, the eventual sectional champion, and we lost by a bucket. We've been living with it for a year," Gryphon coach, Paul Lambrecht, said. "So we all are very clear what our goals are and what work we want to get done this year."
The Gryphons played aggressively. They pushed ahead in the first quarter and didn't let up and there wasn't much the Cougars could do to halt the Gryphons' blitzkrieg of an offensive.
Perhaps the best representation of this was when the Gryphons' Karina Yardley seized control of the ball after the Cougars bounced it out of bounds. She took the ball alone from the sidelines and hovered at the three-point line, looking for an open teammate. There wasn't one, so Yardley took the plunge.
She drove towards the basket. A pair of Cougar defenders raised their arms to try and stop her, but that's where it ended. Perhaps fearing a foul, neither seemed too inclined to get any more physical than a token bit of resistance and that hesitation let Yardley twist between them for an easy layup.
"It's our first step to winning the division title and going to state," Yardley said. "We're really eager. We're a young program and are really hoping to make our mark on the league and become known."
The Cougars countered when their Samantha Madrigal under severe pressure hurled the ball overhanded down the court.
It was not a very accurate pass, more an act of desperation to get it away from the three Gryphons that swarmed her. The ball bounced off the fingers of Gryphon, Tessa Parker, but Parker couldn't get a firm grip. It landed eventually in the hands of the Cougars' Nia Russell. Russell sank the shot from just outside the free-throw line.
It was one of the few points not attributed to penalties the Cougars scored.
The Gryphons built on their lead throughout the rest of the first half and into the second. They closed out the game in the fourth quarter when Zoe Stapp caught a rebound off a missed Gryphon shot.
Stapp pulled out of the fight under the basket and retreated towards the three-point line. A Cougar defender moved to cut her off, and with two at Stapp's tail, they pinched her against each other. Stapp turned around and launched the shot, which sank through the basket and extended the Gryphon lead by another few points.
"It wasn't what we expected. We thought we could have been a bit tougher," Cougar coach, Alfonso Edwards, said. "But my girls played hard, they played tough and they played their hearts out. I couldn't be prouder."
The Gryphons' victory over the Cougars wasn't their only playoff win this week. A few days later on Sat., Feb. 16 they went up against Potter Valley, which they beat 42-24.

By 2025, an estimated 70 billion connected devices, including lights, thermostats and wearables, will be in service. A recent report by McKinsey estimated these devices will contribute an estimated $11 trillion to the global economy, while Gartner predicts IoT technology will be embedded in 95% of new electronic product designs by 2020. Hence, easy-to-use IoT system-on-module (SoM) starter kits are becoming vital development tools for design engineers.
Typical project goals when developing IoT proof-of-concepts include high levels of functionality, reliability and ease-of-use. Achieving such ambitions in a timely, cost-effective manner demands that designers seek out solutions that deliver technical advantages when developing proof-of-concepts. The latest IoT SoM starter kits can help developers accelerate the design phase of projects – a prime example being SensiBLE from SensiEDGE.
SensiBLE development
SensiBLE is an industrial-grade customisable solution for those wanting to design IoT products without getting involved in hardware development or production logistics. Its hardware-ready configuration features 3-axis accelerometer, 3-axis magnetometer, 3-axis gyroscope, pressure, humidity and temperature sensors. Also included are a microphone and ambient light sensor, along with Bluetooth LE 4.1 capabilities and a low-power ARM® 32-bit Cortex®-M4 CPU with FPU.
SensiBLE is cyber-protected by hardware link layer AES-128 encryption and decryption. Power can be supplied directly using a standard 3V watch battery, a pair of AAAs or another power source from 2 to 7V. All of this serves to simplify proof-of-concept for applications that include voice-to-text, activity recognition, wearable sensors or environmental applications.
SensiBLE enables wireless connectivity without RF experience or expertise. The kit is CE and FCC certified, while the firmware, Bluetooth stack, protocols and profiles are readily embedded, allowing developers to fast-track design ideas into prototypes – and on to market. Despite its high-level functionality, it comes in one of the world's smallest form factors, just 20 x 30mm.
Cloud connectivity
SensiBLE can connect in seconds to all major cloud systems, including IBM Cloud, AWS IoT and Microsoft Azure. Choosing which service to use is often influenced by project specifics and developer preference, with each having its merits.
IBM Cloud allows developers to connect to databases and Watson-powered AI-functionality. AWS helps users collect and send data to the cloud, for easy analysis. Microsoft Azure offers integrated tools, DevOps and a marketplace to support users building anything from simple mobile apps to internet-scale solutions.
Explosive growth
Although fully customisable, many customers will use SensiBLE in their device as-supplied, proving very convenient as the market expects to see continued, robust growth for IoT solutions in 2018 and beyond. With modules available off-the-shelf, ultimately SensiEDGE helps developers, makers and start-ups to build proof-of-concepts and launch to the market faster.

George and Amal Clooney have joined the battle against the ugly head of racism in the United States.
The couple, through The Clooney Foundation for Justice, have made a $1 million gift toward the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) that will finance a joint activity to battle despise gatherings.
The move comes over seven days after an August 12 "Join the Right" rally started brutality in Charlottesville, Virginia, that left one lady dead and 19 harmed. Two Virginia state troopers who were checking the dissents were additionally murdered in a helicopter crash.
In a joint explanation issued Monday by means of the SPLC, the couple said they were "glad" to help the association "in its endeavors to avert savage radicalism in the United States."
"What occurred in Charlottesville, and what is going on in groups over our nation, requests our aggregate engagement to face loathe," they said.
In the repercussions of the occasion, President Donald Trump was censured for his unwillingness to denounce racial oppressors and Neo-Nazis in a question and answer session given days after the distress.
"I think there is fault on the two sides," Trump said amid a news gathering August 15.
George Clooney seemed to reference the President's remark in an extra proclamation, gave to CNN by an agent.
"Amal and I needed to include our voice (and money related help) to the continuous battle for balance. There are no two sides to dogmatism and abhor," he said.
The Clooney Foundation for Justice was shaped in 2016 to "propel equity in courts, classrooms and groups far and wide," as per a statement of purpose on its site.
George and Amal Clooney, who as of late invited twins, fill in as the establishment's leaders.
"Like George and Amal Clooney, we were stunned by the size, offensiveness, and savagery of the racial oppressor assembling in Charlottesville," said SPLC President Richard Cohen in an announcement. "It was an impression of exactly the amount Trump's ignitable crusade and administration has empowered the radical right. We are profoundly appreciative to the Clooney Foundation for remaining with us at this basic minute in our nation's battle against abhor."
The SPLC said it tracks more than 1,600 radical gatherings working in the U.S.
