We adopted Panda over a year ago. She has been a fantastic addition to our family. We are always talking about how she is the "perfect dog". She helps my son with his anxiety by being a close, comforting, quiet presence when he needs it. She is goofy, sweet, and loving. We are so thankful to Must Love Dogs NW and Theresa Ayers for finding her for us. We love Panda so much!

21 December 2018
ISG, along with partners GLL, Gardiner & Theobald, Space and Place and Waltham Forest Council, recently held an open day at Waltham Forest Feel Good Centre, a project delivered by the business in 2016.
Built to replace the out-dated 1960s Waltham Forest Leisure Centre, the £25 million state-of-the-art Waltham Forest Feel Good Centre is one of four leisure projects ISG has delivered for GLL as part of a framework agreement.
ISG carried out both the demolition of the existing facility and construction of the new centre, which was built on the original site.
The project aim was to raise the standard of facilities to encourage increased participation in sport and fitness, while bringing the community closer together by being more inclusive.
To celebrate the success of the new centre, ISG and partners invited guests to an open day to showcase the new facilities.
Attendees had the opportunity to hear about the centre's development from each partner and their insights on how to deliver a successful project.
Joyce Guthrie, head of sports and leisure, families and homes, represented Waltham Forest Council and discussed the council's approach to the project and their strong partnership with ISG and architect, Space and Place.
GLL partnership manager, Emma Norsworthy, highlighted why the centre required a much-needed change, the effects it would have on the estate as a whole and how the aim was to make this GLL's flagship facility.
ISG divisional director, Eamonn Wall, discussed the project in detail, along with the other three schemes completed as part of the framework with Waltham Forest Council.
He summarised the challenges presented by the project, and the added value achieved through a true partnership approach.
Gardiner & Theobald's Craig McLellan spoke about its vision for the project and the collaboration involved, while Mark Thomas of Space and Place took guests through the design strategy for the Feel Good Centre, to encourage further participation and inclusiveness.
The presentations were followed by a tour of the stunning facilities and a networking lunch to finish.
Eamonn Wall said: "It has been fantastic to come back and see the centre doing so well.
"It's a great testament to GLL and their high standards in the running of the centre – it looks like we only handed it over last week!
"It has also been really good to hear from our partners and hear how a collaborative approach helped us to deliver such a successful project."
ISG has many successes when it comes to working on leisure projects across the country.
Over the last seven years it has worked across almost 30 leisure projects for local authorities, including four projects with Serco for Birmingham City Council, in addition to its private sector experience and £300 million worth of work across 120 Olympic venues from 2009 to 2012.

2020 or bust
It's been a while since my last update. Things kind of become a blur with 2 kids and updating on development stops feeling so needed. 2 is an age where a lot starts to change. Your baby isn't a baby anymore. They're a full blown 100% toddler complete with language acquisition and preferences. P never had what I'd consider terrible 2s. Around 3 and preschool is when a lot of his problems started bubbling to the surface. H is completely different. He gets full blown kicking screaming tantrums. Ones where his whole body gets this weird mix of stiff yet jelly so that you can not properly grab onto him. He latches onto something and decides if he doesn't get that thing it's a tantrum. There are many mornings where he decides he wants to bring a toy with him to the car, sometimes something small, sometimes big. I've decided to stop letting him carry things to the car because it's a no win scenario. He usually drops it at some point while I'm driving and the screaming starts. And it doesn't end. So nope, no more stuff leaves the house. But then he screams about that too and goes stiffylimp. He does this with such violence I'm afraid he will dislocate his shoulder. I try to carry him with 2 arms to keep his legs pointed away from me since he thrashes and kicks. Our door is a steel door and when it is cold it is impossible to lock without 2 hands. 1 to turn the key and one to pull as hard as you can on the handle to get the door into the right position. How do I lock the door while 2 arm carrying a screaming thrashing toddler intent on ripping his arms off? I have him straddle my knee, press him into the door with my body and one arm and try to free just my hand to pull the door while I lock with my free arm. It's a total mom move. Difficulty 10/10. Then I hoist him up with his legs pointing away from me while he shreaks to the neighborhood about the injustice of having to leave his toy story book behind. He usually continues crying in the car all the way until we get back home. Today though the crying didn't stop when we returned home. I had to repeat the mom move to unlock the door and I laid his contorted body on the ground to thrash to his hearts content. I gave him the book he was originally flailing for. He did not want it. He threw himself into the door over and over. At this point I'm not sure either of us know what he wants. I sit on the floor and be available for him, but he throws himself into me and squirms around me. He doesn't want my hug or affection. If I lift him onto my lap he forces himself away. After 10 minutes of his continued tantrum (on top of the tantrum before we left and the car tantrum) he snaps out of it and brings me a blanket to cuddle under. He immediately quiets down. I don't even know what I could have done differently. I don't even know what he wanted. I don't think HE knew either.
This kind of thing happens throughout the day when he spies something he thinks he needs and now during dinner more often. He throws a fit about the dinner he is served and refuses to eat it. I dread going out to eat now because he will refuse the food he has eaten no problem before and scream for the food on my plate. I'm a mean mom and I don't think my 2 year old needs french fries. But now he knows what french fries are and I'm not allowed to eat them around him. Lest he launch into a wild thrashing scream in public where he has almost knocked his high chair over. Yes, those big wooden chunky ones. He is that strong and his thrashing that violent. Since I don't want him eating junk I ignore it. But you can't ignore that in public without the entire restaurant staring at you and going silent. I don't even want to eat out anymore which was one of the small pleasures I had. Last night my husband got out his birthday ice cream cake while H was still awake (we were on our way up for bed) and of course he saw it. That began a 10+ minute long tantrum while I tried to get him ready for bed, brushing his teeth through screams. I'm not going to give in to the tantrum because that only causes more tantrums. You're exchanging silence now for telling your child it's cool to scream for things you want. It's the whole reason we have issues with french fries. My husband just HAD to stop the crying and let him have some and guess what, now it happens every time. He gives in all the fucking time and all it does is make my life harder.
It doesn't help that H also has issues with speech. He is delayed and receiving services, but we recently found out his issues are tied to pretty bad hearing loss due to fluid build up. His ENT is giving it a month to clear up with allergy medicine before moving on to other things. Maybe H has allergies. Maybe he doesn't. All I know is he mouth breathes and can't hear. I want the problem fixed and the source figured out. But this is a long process with months in between appointments. I feel all the building blocks are there. He does talk, it's just really gibberishy. The bottleneck is his hearing. Once that is cleared up I have no doubt he will be talking at age level. He already seems to know letters and most words in his word book, that's pretty good.
Outside of talking issues and extreme tantrums, he seems quite smart and helpful. He brings me things he thinks I need. His receptive language is great. He can usually watch his Daniel tiger without too much wandering. He still enjoys veggies. He can shape sort and do some puzzles. He's a little big for his age, and I like that. He can pee on the potty when I ask.
His big brother is reading now and that's fantastic. That's about the only good thing I can say. He did alright with Kindergarten but frequently got in trouble or got bad colors. He started off doing well with First grade but over the past 6 weeks has gotten progressively worse with his behavior. He can NOT stop talking. He interrupts the teacher and bugs other kids. It's just nonsense talk most of the time. Unimportant questions. Nonsense attention seeking behavior. I can't even describe it without calling it dumb. He just ACTS DUMB all fucking day. He got in trouble the other day for stuffing his pockets full of tissues and insisting to the teacher he needed them instead of doing school work. The kind of stuff that makes you scratch your head and wonder wtf is wrong with this kid? He was moved to his own desk away from the other kids instead of being at a communal table because he was being too disruptive. He's constantly bouncing off the walls running around at home bugging everyone. I don't understand how anyone could parent this child without losing their mind. He is overstimulating to me and I'm in a constant state of wanting to get away from the noise and action because it does.not.end. I am frazzled all day every day. Just wishing he could freaking SIT STILL AND SHUT UP. He cannot. I asked him to sit on his butt next to me this morning and stay still and quiet. He might be able to do it for 30 seconds before he starts up wanting to say something or wiggling or trying to get up. I kept sitting him back down and snapping at him to remain quiet. After a little bit he began hitting himself in the head. Why? I don't know and apparently he doesn't either. If you try to talk reason and logic with him he just brick walls everything with "I don't know" or "I forgot". It's like living with a tornado. A dumb tornado. My child doesn't listen. My child has 0 self control. My child is very intelligent but acts very stupid.
We filled out behavior paperwork from his doctor and so did his teacher. Our appointment to discuss it isn't until February but when I self scored it using a scale found online, he has ADHD. Impulsive/hyperactive subtype. This does not surprise me in the least. But of course my husband is not fully convinced it's ADHD. I do think there is another component at play here, maybe OCD, but he definitely does have ADHD. This is beyond normal 6 year old boy behavior which is what everyone tries to hand wave away at me. I don't understand why no one wants to support me. They all complain about P's behavior but then when I bring up ADHD everyone wants to tell me he's fine and normal and doesn't need medication. Why the fuck is everyone in my life so against medicating a child with mental issues? YOU'VE DEALT WITH HIS ISSUES! He's having issues at school with his teacher who is a god damn saint and an educational wizard who gives seminars to other teachers and goes the extra mile with P to build a behavior plan that works for him. But even she can not get anything to work for him. If an early childhood educator with as much pedigree as this one can not help my child, how can I ever expect to on my own?"But he acts just like so and so at that age" says my family. Then I ask if so and so ever had to be moved away from his peers because he was interrupting them all day. "Well no". Ok then he isn't "just like so and so" he's his own person with his own issues. Also when so and so grew up unto a pretty mediocre adult why in the world would I see that as reassuring? So and so probably needed help too but you'd rather pretend nothing could possibly be wrong with so and so for your own feels. It's absolutely maddening the lack of support I feel. My job is to help P grow into a functional adult with healthy relationships and a good education. He will need help to get there and I will get him every bit of help I can, whether that be medication or therapy based. I will do everything I can to see him not fail at life. He's such a smart kid, he needs help controlling himself. The last thing I need is his classmates shutting him out and he becomes another statistic of radicalized lonely young boys who go down a bad path.
Husband is still husband. Our house is still needing help. The more I think about it husband probably has some form of ADHD because he has trouble keeping himself on task and staying organized. But his latest plan is to build a supershed in the back yard for his ebay mess so it's out of the house once and for all. With the basement and garage no longer being used up we can finally start work on the basement and start bringing the house into the final stages of renovation. Though we're still at a point where we're deciding how much to do and whether or not we're staying here or buying/building elsewhere. This house is lovely, I really do like it. But it's not perfect and it does not have enough space for us both to be running businesses out of it. We can change that or leave. But we can't leave it the way it is, there are still some things we can do to improve it whether we stay or not. This will all take time and money. We are currently working on a get out of debt plan and maybe we'll be there in 1 years time. Without debt our ability to put money into the house will expand and make things easier. I just hope this isn't more carrot on a stick nonsense with no end in sight. I'm trying to back off and let it happen, but it's hard. I keep getting older and shit keeps staying the same. I can't spend another decade on the hamster wheel getting nothing accomplished and staying miserable.
I'm still at a crossroads with my life and career. Do I prepare to go back to work for someone else or continue working for myself? My store is doing well, I grossed 25K this year which is so wonderful for a small time Etsy shop. I only net about 8K of that. I don't know how much I make on ebay with my flipping venture but it's probably very similar, I will start tracking it this year. It has always been hard because I'm carrying over so much inventory year to year and I don't remember how much I paid. I don't think I can ever grow this to a level where I match the income I'd make on the outside. But for now it's really good for me and hopefully looks good to a future employer. That I wasn't just sitting with my thumb up my ass raising two very difficult children, even though that alone is a job. I was also running essentially 2 businesses on top of it. #supermom
Let's not even talk about the stress I deal with taking both these kids to the post office and goodwill after school every day. I'm sure the people at the goodwill think I'm abusive or something. We walk into the store and one or both of my kids are screaming more often then not. H screams because he needs P in the cart, it's one of those irrational things he gets mad about. P does not want to sit in the cart and they both scream over it. P tries to run around and touch everything. He has broken items on more then one occasion. It does not matter that I've spent the last 2 years telling him every day at this store HANDS TO YOURSELF, he does not remember and will not keep his hands to himself or stop running. Because again, he has 0 self control and no brain. So I'm hunched over in his face reminding him, doing what I can to put the fear of god in him about not fucking touching anything. And to please stop talking. He continues talking nonsense at stores at the top of his volume. People seem to think this is funny and I must be a real witch to growl at him to shut up. I'm tired, so tired of every day being groundhog day. We go to the same store at the same time looking at the same things and I keep having to remind him of the same things. Please stop talking. Please be quiet. Please keep your hands to yourself. Please stop pulling the cart. Please stop annoying your brother. Please put that toy back. I'm sorry but how the hell am I supposed to keep my cool when I feel like I'm taking crazy pills and NOTHING CHANGES?? I'm exhausted dealing with it and I just need it to stop! No one helps me with these kids I'm basically a single mom who finds momming not enough and piles other responsibilities on. But I'll be damned if I'm going to feel guilty about not being fine with motherhood alone. Motherhood sucks. Motherhood is not my hobby. Motherhood will not help my career. I'm not giving up my businesses to lessen my stress. I need more help with my kids.
I have a goal to get better at non vector art and less derivative art. So I bought myself an iPad Pro and Apple pencil. But now I have constant anxiety about spending alllll that money on something that I'm finding very difficult and I'm not sure I'll ever excel at. It's probably the most expensive thing I've purchased in….forever. Geeze I can't think of the last time I dropped 800 dollars on anything, I'm not sure I ever have. Even the TV I bought almost 10 years ago was only 500. It's so unlike me. I hoard money for rainy days. I like being financially solvent. It lessens my anxiety about not having a real job. Anxiety can be a potent fuel for me though. It's a double edged sword. The anxiety pushes me to keep picking up the iPad and attempting some wonky scribble, but it's also not allowing me to relax any and just take a night off. I have to find better balance. Between making and shipping orders and being a parent, I really lack free time. I'll probably continue to exhaust myself with the iPad for the remainder of the month then relax on it a little. Oh and lets not even mention the thrifting youtube channel my husband and I have been kicking around. Because I definitely need more things to do with my non existent work time. God what is wrong with me? I want the success so bad I'll keep pushing myself until it happens or die trying. Lets go 2020, we can do this! ADHD diagnosis for one, clearing the ears of the other, supershed for husband, and art improvement for me!

Here's the question about emptiness.
If I don't exist
And you don't exist
Then why is it so important
That you should be better than me?
Here's the question about compassion.
How can you not care
About other people's passions
And claim to be compassionate?
Here's the question about enlightenment.
It feels good.
Well duhhh, of course it does.
It's a very effective excuse
To do whatever we damn well please
While denying our human responsibilities
To other human people
And to every corner
Of the miracle of Life.
What is the function of Buddhism with its karma ,
And Christianity and Islam
with their threat of a dreadful God?
Or a cuddly God who will do
Whatever we ask him to do?
And the corposystem and its technology?
And New Age and Wicken, and democracy.
And all the rest?
What is the function
of all these human constructs?
They are metaphors
For our basic human delusion of
Power over nature
and the inexorable natural law
of cause and effect.
They justify our thirst for freedom,
regardless of the consequences.
It's not reality.
Not for me.
I am woman;
I see both sides to power.
And I reject them both.
It's the one important fact,
If we choose to grow a future for mankind,
that remains for us to learn.
We are no more than
micro-bits of nature,
And the Creation
does not care about our power.
But it's not important, is it, what we are?
Why does it distress you so?
Not me.
I am woman; I am creation;
Creation does not ask to be.
It builds its future on reality.
We are a miracle; a fact; an impossibility.
But we are real.
And so is the harm we cause
To other living things.
And so is the guilt that we would feel
But for excuses and justifications
that are built into our power games.
I have no power; you have no power.
We are no more than the smallest cells
in the big toe of the ecosystem,
which is a micro-dot on the fringes of the universe.
Every thoughtful scientist knows this
and wants to help.
So if, by any long chance,
That is what you really mean by emptiness,
Then what I do not understand is why you lied to me
When I was almost ready to believe.

She knew she had to jump to get where she wanted to be.
A leap
so large
so scary.
Her wings were new.
The plumage vibrant, but untested.
The journey would be hard.
The first step, the most difficult.
But she knew if she followed her heart
her arrow
She had big things to do.
From the nest where she'd always been she peered over.
The ground rocky
She found courage.
She mustered up strength.
There was nothing left for her in that tiny nest.
So she jumped.
She found she could fly.
Trust her wings.
They would take her where she needed to go.
Follow her path.
Follow her arrow.
Follow her dreams.
No one could stop her
on trusted wings.
Items available until sold here.

how to change note duration
Hello musescore community,
I'm trying to figure out how to change the duration of a note (or of notes in a measure). If I am in 6/8 time and have a bass chord being held for 3, and if I want to break up that chord into 1-2-3 1-2-3, how would I do that?
Laura See
In reply to Click the note then: https:/… by Shoichi
Thanks! Although if I understand correctly, there's no way to really change the duration of one or more notes. It looks and feels like I would need to delete and re-insert. Is that right?
In reply to Thanks! Although if I… by Laura Sipser Segel
No, no need to delete . For exemple you have a quater note and you want an eight note, select the quater by clicking it, it becomes blue, tape 4
In reply to Thanks! Although if I… by Laura Sipser Segel
No need to delete.
First you need to realize what note input mode is.
(Being or not in note input mode is key to what/how you do things in MuseScore).
So to change a note duration :
-in note input mode: just reenter a note with the desired duration
-not in note input mode, which the logical place to be to change a duration, just select the existing note (it will become blue) and select the new duration, either by mouse in the toolbar, or quicker if you know them by digit on the keyboard.

The Thottapilly family - 42-year-old Sandeep, 38-year-old Soumya, 12-year-old Siddhant, 9-year-old Saachi - vanished while on a road trip that was supposed to go from their Valencia home to Portland and back.
Relatives said the family stopped communicating on Thursday and they're concerned because the four were supposed to stop in San Jose on Friday for a quick visit with family or friends, but they never arrived.
The CHP said a witness called 911 last Friday around 1:30 p.m. to report seeing a car go over a 100-foot embankment south of Garberville in Humboldt County. The Eel River runs parallel with the two-lane Highway 101 at that point. CHP Public Information Officer William Wunderlich from the Garberville office said there are similarities between that vehicle and the family's car, including the color.
They were supposed to have arrived in San Jose that day, but never arrived.
#BREAKING: Search underway for SUV that plunged into the Eel River on Friday, south of Garberville, matching the descrip. of the vehicle being driven by the #Thottapilly family of #Valencia. They failed to show up in #SanJose for a scheduled stop during their road trip. #ABC7Now pic.twitter.com/Iz0eYIpifk— Chris Nguyen ABC7 (@ChrisNguyenTV) April 10, 2018
Wunderlich notes that it was raining on Friday and no one has seen the car since that time. Right now, he said the river is running high, swift and cold.
He does not think the level will go down for another couple of days but adds that they will not stop searching until there is a break in the case.
The family's last known location, in their maroon Honda Pilot, was around Klamath in the Redwood National Park area.
A family friend said the Thottapillys were excited about taking the trip.
"They were just going on a road trip and they were very excited. Very excited to do the Oregon Trail," said friend Laura Knightley.
She said she last heard from them when they sent pictures of the kids in Sacramento on March 30. Other family members last heard from them April 5.
Sandeep's brother is driving up to Northern California to meet with the CHP as officials investigate the report of the vehicle that fell off the 101.

Two-year study finds sustained visual acuity gains from Eylea treatment
On average wet AMD patients received fewer than four injections during their second year of treatment
Research investigating the safety and effectiveness of Eylea treat and extend dosing regimens has found improvements in visual acuity were largely maintained at the end of two years.
The treat and extend programme means clinicians can extend their patients' dosing intervals by two, four and 12-week increments depending on how long a patient has been on the therapy.
During the trial, patients with wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) received fewer than four injections on average during their second year of treatment.
The study results were presented at the Congress of European Society of Retina Specialists in Vienna, Austria.
Bayer senior medical adviser, Dr Nitin Jain, highlighted that the ability to tailor dosing regimes for individual wet AMD offers an important clinical benefit.
"More than four in 10 patients were treated with a four-monthly dosing interval at the end of the second year of the study," he shared.

time so we can get the MODBUS starting and end address we will keep the initial force enforceable the comment default formats and end use so we will say OK to that and we restructure and you can re-size these as well add comments there the end use column shows you which tags in your tag database are currently in use in your project the default format column in used with integer tags integer tag it shows you the default format for that integer value again show all this is a filtering device that's enabled at the uh... top of the screen and the tags to show in the editor so you can select and deselect these as necessary based on what you're searching for and this little insert button is very very convenient if you're searching for just floating-points you can deselect that one and invert and now then you see only the floating-points again you can do multiple ones you can financial you can also filter by text sir intact start typing in the move and to be a the edit built if your filter frightening attacked and if you're looking for and have a problem okay log data tag that street inputs the eyes just be honest so this is a a nice option back to all baby window is very powerful window on one if she is quite a bit of trouble shooting mission systems what we're doing with the baby windows union option to create at school to do the status an edit status at any given time so in this we have multiple tabs topless so you can actually create everyday that you at any time attacked you need this is safe with the project so anytime you say this project is that you window with all the tab that are associated with excite next on different project update when those will be available the force before stag and a new one you know just do not have expired all the other ones expired those extra fabric cannot be deleted you've got to have at least one day view tab available at all times and of course tags tab is created for you out of the fact that they took the stand to think about the attack database and you look at your own three-eighths fags they're just all four sides and you will notice that these are selected as forceful we've created some facts that are just all force uh... and besides your we've got upset as forcible and some are initially portion midsummer minutes before five that any tagged that is service forcible will show up innovative under the foresight so if we take a look at our table strode onto the bottom and we can into art are tag database and we select the new tactic forcible scripts williams and set god call sign forcible now you'll see that call signs that had it that you wind up onto the porch tax path as long as that tag selected as forceful it'll be a lot of show up in the for for five minutes you eat taggers removed remove calls call sign and it is now removed from the forceful tab take a look at power pest management screen in the past management trainee we've you will see that you've got to test this is where we've taken our our projects he can organize the bypass so now we've got multiple actual many programs that were displaying yet different different sections code in each one of these facts and each one of these projects these projects organized an attachment window we've got our main control from a control is on the run every scam under the fast folder you gather run first and only this is

Simple yet Stylish – Rings for Complete Outfit
No outfit is complete without accessories: necklaces, bracelets, rings… Statement or minimalist, adding up jewelry will make your outfit complete. But in order to avoid "cheap" look you must follow some rules when choosing rings. If you decide to wear many rings in the same metal try to vary the sizes and the shapes to avoid being monotonous. If you want to create multi-ring look, make sure to use also a large statement ring to anchor your look. You can also stack smaller rings on top each other to give them greater impact. Sticking to a particular metal or motif is one way to do it, but mixing stones, metals, and jewelry styles with reckless abandon can look just as cool – because at the end the most important thing that you must not forget is to be unique!

Victoria-based singer/songwriter Matt Goud (aka Northcote) drops by The Vat Aug. 13.
The show will be in support of his latest self-titled CD, which was released this past spring through Black Box Recordings. The band is heading out onto the prairies for the next while to reconnect with fans and pick up some new listeners along the way.
Produced by Colin Stewart at The Hive in Vancouver, the latest record is his most confident disc to date.
From the full-fledged bluster of opening cut How Can You Turn Around, the infectious When You Cry to other gems like Find Our Own Way, the disc breaks new ground and it's clear Goud isn't wary of exploring all kinds of styles and genres. The Only One Who Knows My Name is mesmerizing in its sheer melodic uniqueness.
Burn Right Past Them All showcases his ability to pen songs full of imagery with a strong storytelling knack.
Born and raised in small-town Saskatchewan, his early exposure to music was a mix of traditional country on radio and the hymns he learned at his church. However, it wasn't until he discovered punk and hardcore music that he realized music's healing power.
"We were raised going to church every week, so that's how I was forced to sing in public," he laughs. "In my teen years, I got into punk music and it kind of blew my mind." There was much about it that clicked with him, from its raw, robust energy to the differing world views that it presented to him lyrically.
"It was the first time I started thinking about things like animal rights and homophobia – I'd never heard about those things before in my hometown. It was kind of like an alternate universe that it took me into where I learned a lot of stuff."
He then started up a band with some friends in high school, and the guys had a solid measure of success over several years – Goud toured for years as a member of the Means. The band broke up in 2008 and Goud has since transitioned into life on the road as a singer/songwriter with accompaniment by an ever-rotating slew of guests and friend musicians.
He relocated to Victoria, although the prairies offers much to emerging musicians, he said. "There's pros and cons anywhere you go, I suppose. I still feel that my creative soul is still at home on the prairies, but things have changed being an artist out here as well."
As to his latest CD, Goud further strengthens his voice as an emerging Canadian artist. Confident, full chords replace contemplative ballads, and the influence of his eclectic background of punk, soul and blues create a unique sound.
Songs including Counting Down the Days and I Hope the Good Things Never Die are also more fully realized and richer than his previous efforts, replete with grooving soul drums, horns, bass-lines, atmospheric guitar and sing-along group vocals.
This album sees Goud joined by Blake Enemark on guitar, Marek Tyler on drums, Olivier Clement on horn and Calgary artist Francis Gerrard on vocals.
Ultimately, Goud turns a new page with this record which was penned primarily in the passenger seat of a Dodge van parked along a seaside road in Victoria.
"Most of the songs on the record I wrote in the van, because our apartment is too small and I don't want to scare the neighbours."
Many pensive nights spent walking home from writing sessions and gigs throughout Victoria streets also helped shape a newfound confidence and connection to life as a musician for Goud, and listeners can hear this transformation in his voice.
"Usually I fumble around with some chords," he explains of his craft. "If I'm having a strong sentiment, or the chords are reminding me of something, usually I'll go with that – like a line I can build off from. It has to be a sentiment that happens to me at that time."
And it's not just the beauty of the west coast that sparks songwriting ideas. "I think that things that have been more inspiring are the experiences of moving to a new town and trying to find work, playing in different places and kind of pushing yourself to create a new set-up.
"There are definitely moments of inspiration, but I think you have to work for them."

Bush call Hussein a 'murderous tyrant'
President George W. Bush, seeking support for war against Iraq, called Iraqi President Saddam Hussein a "murderous tyrant" on Oct. 7 and said he may be plotting to attack the United States with biological and chemical weapons.
Bush also said Hussein could be within a year of developing a nuclear weapon, and he declared, "Facing clear evidence of peril, we cannot wait for the final proof - the smoking gun - that could come in the form of a mushroom cloud."
"I am not willing to stake one American life on trusting Saddam Hussein," the president said in a televised speech from the Cincinnati Museum Center.
Facing skepticism at home and abroad, Bush portrayed an apocalyptic struggle between good and evil, saying the threat posed by Hussein could dwarf the damage done in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks in the United States. He said Iraq must be the next front in the war on terrorism.
"There is no refuge from our responsibilities," Bush said. If it comes to war, "We will prevail."
Citing information gathered by U.S. intelligence, Bush said Hussein and his "nuclear holy warriors" are building a program that could produce a nuclear weapon in less than a year. U.S. intelligence agencies issued a report recently estimating it would take until 2010.
"If we allow that to happen, a terrible line would be crossed," the president said.
As he spoke, new polls revealed lingering unease among voters about going to war, particularly if casualties are high or if fighting distracts attention from America's sagging economy. Democrats criticized Bush's insistence upon confronting Iraq alone if the United Nations fails to act.
The president hopes an overwhelming vote in Congress will persuade reluctant allies in the U.N. to adopt a tough new resolution obliging Hussein to disarm - by force, if necessary.

WHITTIER – "When you see buttermilk clouds, count on rain in three days," was one of the many bits of wisdom sprinkled around by Ethel May Denman-Parsons during her 93 years of life, said her niece Laurel Telfer of Long Beach.
Said Telfer, "She was pure love, fun and a delight."
Denman-Parsons was the wife of the first cardiologist in Whittier and was involved in many civic organizations and philanthropic endeavors. She died Jan. 25.
Born May 20, 1913, she was raised by her grandfather, "Fiddlin' Hoss" Williams, in Powell Valley, Tenn. They lived on a ranch where her grandfather raised mules and grew tobacco.
In elementary school, she went to live with her father and stepmother. At 14, she moved on to Knoxville to live with an aunt. At 17, she moved again to join her sister, Mary Ellen, in Michigan, where she became manager at Casey Jones' restaurant.
One of her customers was Dean Denman. His visits to the restaurant led to 52 years of marriage that took them from Michigan to San Francisco and finally to Whittier.
Many credited her beauty and business acumen as reasons she was hired in San Francisco's I. Magnin department store as a hat model. She had gone into the store to try on hats and was hired on the spot.
After Dean was discharged from the Navy, the couple came to Southern California in 1946 and he entered USC to obtain a medical certificate in cardiology.
They opened a medical office in their home on North Greenleaf Avenue. Eventually, they built a medical building next door. Ethel served as her husband's office manager.
Denman was chief of staff at Murphy Memorial Hospital, and he admitted the first patient to the new Presbyterian Intercommunity Hospital.
Dean was a member of the Whittier Rotary Club, and Ethel was inducted as an honorary Rotarian.
After his retirement as a hospital cardiologist, Denman became medical director at Sorenson Nursing Home. Dr. Denman died in 1989.
Ethel remarried in 1991 to Earl Parsons, the former owner-publisher of the La Habra Star newspaper. Earl died in 2003.
A funeral service for Denman-Parsons was held Monday at White-Emerson Mortuary Chapel, with interment in Rose Hills Memorial Park.

Friends: Lance's collapse was just one of several huge stories in yesterday's first truly dramatic stage of The Tour as it presented the peloton its first genuine test in the mountains with two category one climbs, both coming in the last thirty miles of the stage.
Andy Schleck dropping Contador in the last kilometer was a stunning surprise and Evans taking yellow, though not unexpected, could greatly alter the complexion of the days ahead. Lance faltering in the blistering heat could have happened to anyone, but cracking on the final climb and losing twelve minutes was almost unimaginable considering his form and his renowned determination. At least he didn't make Chris Horner stick with him the entire way and let him go on ahead, so he's still somewhat in The Race as is Leipheimer. Lance left shepherding duties to one of his younger teammates.
The Race is over for Lance unless he does something crazy like Landis did four years ago when he lost eight minutes on one stage when he was in yellow and then regained it the next day after binging on testosterone. His momentous ride was considered the most incredible performance in the long history of The Tour. Too bad his drug test results didn't come until four days after The Tour had ended.
Contador may have been slightly off his form to be dropped by Schleck, but it is the first time that Schleck has been able to ride away from him in the mountains. He came into The Race saying he thought it was possible, that it was his dream to be able to look back and not see Contador on his wheel, but no one expected him to be able to do it. He gained ten seconds on him and a group of a dozen others winning his first Tour stage ever.
Evans would have begun the day in yellow if the French rider Chavanal hadn't surprised everyone with a truly inspired ride the day before, as if he had a blood-lust for the yellow jersey after wearing it for a day earlier in The Race. He attacked on the final nine-mile category two climb, while everyone else saved their energy for the next day's stage. Chavanal paid for it as he struggled in yesterday along with Lance. His comments in "L'Equipe" that he thought he could be a contender for the podium are now history.
"L'Equipe" also had a lengthy interview with Evans on the eve of his taking the lead. He expressed confidence that he could win The Race, though no one else except maybe his wife would agree. He said having a lead on his rivals at this point in The Race was unusual for him. In the past he has been a bit behind and has difficulty overcoming a deficit, as it isn't his style to be able to ride away from the elite climbers. He can generally stick with them, as he has great persistence. If he can do that, he'll stand on the top spot of the podium in Paris. He lost ten seconds to Schleck yesterday, but still has a twenty second lead, not much, but possibly enough, especially since he will gain time on him in the one remaining time trial on the penultimate stage in Bordeaux.
Ordinarily at the end of each stage the French post-race interviewer immediately pounces on the stage winner and then any French riders who might have animated the stage. Today he waited twelve minutes for Lance, showing no interest in Schleck or Evans or Contador. Lance knew he would be besieged when he crossed the line. He was the lone rider in his bunch to zip up his jersey as he approached the line so his sponsor's name could be fully recognized, and also sparing the world from close-ups of his pasty white chest.
He might have ridden away from the mob of reporters, but he was fully prepared for their questions, offering no excuses, admitting he'd had a "very bad day." He feared it would be, as he said he had suffered the day before in similar heat and humidity, but didn't lose any time because it wasn't as demanding of a stage.
Now he has two weeks of domestique duty to Leipheimer, who sits in eighth place. He is not unfamiliar to such work, deferring to him at the Giro last year and the past two Tours of California. He knew that might be his role this year at The Tour when he had an up and down early season. He will continue to make The Race interesting and could surprise the peloton with a burst of energy, not having to carefully ration it out to remain in competition.
Another significant story that is being overlooked is the performance of Christian Vande Velde's Canadian teammate Ryder Hesjedal, who nearly won the cobble stage and presently sits in sixth place. Last December at an appearance at Garmin's Chicago store Christian predicted that someone on his team could well be the surprise of The Tour, as he had been two years ago when he finished fourth and Wiggins was last year when he finished just behind Lance. A lot will depend on who is best at coping with the heat if it continues.
The peloton would have been quite envious of the conditions I had ascending the final nine mile climb of Saturday's stage four hours after them. It was so hot Chavanal's team director was squirting water on him as he made his ascent. Riders were grabbing bottles from spectators and immediately pouring them over their heads and down their backs, just as I do when I have water to spare.
I did the climb in a light rain and without the sun beating on me. Nasty storm clouds with thunder and lightning had moved in as I approached St. Claude at the start of the climb. I didn't know whether to seek shelter or to keep riding. I knew that the rain would feel good, so kept riding, not even bothering with my rain jacket. Dark caught me before I could reach the summit, but it was still cool the next morning when I completed the stage.
It took me a little over 24 hours to complete the Tournus-Las Rousses stage with its six climbs. I didn't reach Tournus until after ten p.m. the night before the stage began, two days and nearly 250 miles from Reims, so I was only able to bike one mile into the course that night.
Thanks to reasonable cops, I made it much further down the course than I hoped I might before being stopped, nearly 50 miles and over two of the climb. I was halted in a village half-way up the third climb. It was a perfect place to be marooned, as the town had a toilet publique with a sink. I parked myself on the road across from it and went over every twenty minutes to douse my shirt and head and refill my water bottle for the two-and-a-half hours I spent there. In this heat I make an extra effort to grab the bottles of water the Vittel sponsor passes out as it goes by, as they are somewhat chilled. The bottles are one item that are not thrown. One has to be ready for them and step out and grab.
There are four different newspapers being passed out by the caravan for people to read in the hour between its passing and the arrival of the racers. I make an extra effort, too, to grab "L'Equipe," the one item I am most eager to grab. If I fail to get one and some one near me does, I will trade just about everything else I have gathered for it.
I had expected to meet David the German cyclist here in Chambery tomorrow at noon, but he emailed saying the heat had dramatically slowed him down. That is not such bad news. It means I don't have to stick around and wait for him, but can start on Wednesday's stage nearly two days ahead of the peloton, right after I send this off.
There is a category one climb fifty miles into the stage. I will camp just before it tonight so I can climb it in the cool tomorrow morning. Tomorrow afternoon I will find a bar to watch the peloton tackle its first beyond category climb. They have today to rest up for it, the first of their two rest days. Contador will be out for revenge on Schleck. Evans will be battling to retain the yellow jersey. Lance will want to redeem himself. Wiggins will hope to stick with the lead group of climbers. Leipheimer would like to move up closer to the podium. And Hesjedal will get a chance to prove that he is for real. It only gets more exciting.
Later, George

What Is Involved in Tire Installation
It is important that you hire a professional whenever you want to install tires on your vehicle. This needs to be done always unless you are an expert on your own. They will often seem to give you top class services. You will realize that they have the necessary equipment to handle such tasks. It is important to note that tire installation will often take into account mounting as well as balancing. This can only be done by a qualified person. It is therefore important that we fully understand what is involved in this particular process. As you keep reading, you will learn more about the distinction that exists between the two major terms that drive this particular process of tire installation.
Mounting is usually the art of putting the new tires that you have on the wheels. It is only once this has been done that it will be possible to install the wheel onto the vehicle. This is often a process that is not filled with any complexities. On the other hand, mounting comes with a level of complexity. The only time that a balance will be achieved is when the center of gravity is in line with the axis of the wheel's rotation. This will only be reached if the weight of the tire is evenly distributed across the axle. An even distribution will often be indicated by lesser vibration whenever the tire spins. A good number of experts will either go for the road force or the spin kind of balancing.
The spin balancing will often be tested via spinning. The expert, with the help of a machine, will have to check for any instance of heavy spots that might bring about vibrations when spinning. It will then be required of the tire to be taken through a number of diagnostic tests. The machine will be tasked with the identification of any part of the tire that is not in balance. In case of any imbalance, certain small weights will be used to address the problem. It is through this that an even distribution of weight will be attained.
We then take a look at the road force kind of balancing. This will in most cases feature the pressing of a large roller against the tire that is spinning. This is intended to enhance the simulation of the force of a road on the tire being tested. The machine being used will measure the deviation from a perfect roundness for further adjustments. It is often considered to be more accurate and efficient. This is due to the fact that it can easily denote certain inefficiencies that might be relatively hard for the spin balancing to detect.

China blast death toll rises to 129 almost two weeks on
There are still 44 people missing and 610 are in hospital, 39 of them critically injured, the official Xinhua news agency reported, citing local officials.
The explosions at a hazardous goods storage facility on August 12 triggered a giant fireball and new fires broke out as recently as Friday.
China's powerful State Council, or cabinet, has vowed to conduct a "rigorous" investigation into the cause of the explosions, Xinhua said Saturday.
The owners of the hazardous goods storage company at the centre of the incident, Rui Hai International Logistics, reportedly included the son of a former police chief who used his connections to help the firm obtain the necessary permits and pass inspections.
The blasts have also sparked fears of toxic pollutants contaminating the air and water of the city, which has a population of around 15 million people.

Ibiza Old Town Ibiza
Ibiza Old Town history, hotels what to see and do
Ibiza Old Town Ibiza
A walk to the top of Ibiza Old Town, via tiny whitewashed alleys and beneath lines of drying laundry, will take your breath away both literally and metaphorically. You will invariably find that you forget which route you have taken to reach the top, and end up descending by a completely different series of cobbled streets and courtyards. There is even one way up that takes you through a long, cool, uphill tunnel, which is ideal on hot summer days when the last thing you need is a slow, sweaty trudge up winding roads.
Once at the top of Dalt Vila, and having spent the appropriate amount of time marvelling at the stunning view, a real must see is the Museu Arqueologic d'Eivissa i Formentera, which is free. In under an hour you will gain as much insight as you need about the history of Ibiza, and particularly Dalt Vila, from the earliest Phoenician settlers in around 600BC, and via the Carthaginians, Romans, Moors and Catalans to the present day Spanish.
Also at the very top are the castle, whose foundation stones were laid in the eighth century and which may sometime soon be developed into a luxury hotel, and the fourteenth century cathedral (Santa Maria de les Neus). The cathedral is a very visible, simple tower whose silhouette can be seen for miles around and is floodlit at night. It may not be spectacular but it is certainly worth a visit once you are up there, especially if you visit around Easter time and see the near life size effigies of Jesus and Mary that are paraded slowly and solemnly down into the town on Good Friday by drum banging Catholics and then back up.
No holiday in Ibiza would be complete without a romantic meal within the walls of Ibiza Old Town, and the majority of its restaurants are located in the Placa de Vila, the main square. In the same area you will find most of the Old Town's shops, selling a range of goods, from postcards to handbags and embroidered tablecloths. Dalt Vila is also the home of Ibiza's only specifically gay club Anfora on Carrer Sant Carles.

Dr Dave Baldwin, author of men's health guide Healthy Bastards, is a GP based in Bulls who operates New Zealand's first and only Flying Doctor service, providing a medical aviation service to pilots in remote areas of New Zealand (www.flyingdoctor.co.nz). Healthy Bastards is written with a humorous turn reminiscent of that good keen man of New Zealand humour, Barry Crump. The book outlines the main health problems men face, with advice on how to avoid them or deal with them, along with checklists and summaries. There is an accompanying DVD of the same title. Baldwin's other love besides his wife Sandi is aviation, and he flies a Cessna 172 Hawk XP2 with a CSU and 210hp continental engine.
Dr Dave is presently focusing his 'Healthy Bastards' campaign on social media (Facebook and YouTube) as a way of getting good health messages to 'unhealthy bastards'. He has just won a landmark Advertising Standards Authority complaint (along with an appeal) relating to his 'Healthy Bastards' radio advertisements, which has further fuelled his enthusiasm to keep going with the campaign.
GP Pulse called Healthy Bastards a 'special book' while M2 commended its 'plain-speaking response to that clichéd plea, "in English please" '. The reviewer in Healthy Options lauded its combination of a 'wonderful witty approach' with explanations 'in no uncertain terms [of] common symptoms . . . and when to consult a GP', before concluding that what sets it apart from other men's health books is that Baldwin 'speaks their language and that is a foolproof recipe for success'. Angela Fitchett, reviewing Healthy Bastards in the Nelson Mail, test-ran the book on her 'large family of mainly "blokes" ' and concluded: 'Dr Dave seems to have a winner here — a good buy for any bloke who's keen on keeping everything in working order for the long haul.'
NZ Aviation News summed up: 'Healthy Bastards is just like its author — robust, noisy, irreverent, intemperate and funny but with a deep underlying message. Read it. It could change your life for the better.'
The reviewer in Rod & Rifle appreciated the accessibility provided by writing the book 'around a fictional character called Gav McAvedy, a chopper pilot who flies "hunters, hikers and associated tree huggers around Fiordland and South Westland" ', whom Pharmacy Today called 'somewhat disease-prone'.

Book Review: A Bound Woman Is a Dangerous Thing by DaMaris B. Hill (2019)February 12th, 2019 7:00 am by mad mags
"How many ways did you write women herunterladen? How many ways did you right women?"
(Full disclosure: I received a free e-ARC for review through NetGalley herunterladen. Trigger warning for violence against women, including rape.)
The afflicted pray for healing—just as hungry people pray for bread, but when has God ever sent bread samsung cannot download images? In my recollection of the scriptures, God has always sent a woman.
simple past tense and past participle of bind pacybits 20en ios.
tied; in bonds: a bound prisoner.
made fast as if by a band or bond: She is bound to her family.
secured within a cover, as a book wie kann ich netflix serien herunterladen.
under a legal or moral obligation: He is bound by the terms of the contract.
destined; sure; certain: It is bound to happen.
determined or resolved: He is bound to go ios 10 downloaden op ipad.
Pathology . constipated.
Mathematics . (of a vector) having a specified initial point as well as magnitude and direction.
held with another element, substance, or material in chemical or physical union herunterladen.
(of a linguistic form) occurring only in combination with other forms, as most affixes.
From Harriet Tubman to Sandra Bland, Ida B skype download kostenlos für windows 10. Wells to Eartha Kitt, Grace Jones to Assata Shakur, A Bound Woman Is a Dangerous Thing is DaMaris B. Hill's "love letter to women who have been denied their humanity."
In its most obvious sense, these women are bound in a very real, tangible way: those shackled by the chains of slavery, or imprisoned in jail (often, as we'll see, for defending themselves against physical abuse and sexual assault) media reports that can be downloaded from the internet. But to be bound can also be a positive thing, an expression of love: to be bound to one's ancestors, connected to one's friends and family, accountable to one's community outlook 2007 herunterladen kostenlos. Here, Hill celebrates women who have been bound in both respects, sometimes simultaneously.
Poetry is a deeply personal and intimate form of communion, and it's pretty hit-or-miss for me. I know what I like, even if I have no idea why I like it. And, sadly, as much as I was looking forward to A Bound Woman Is a Dangerous Thing (I mean, THAT COVER!), most of the poems just didn't do it for me.
First, the pros: Hill introduced me to a number of badass women I'd never heard of before, and whom I'd love to learn more about. I love the concept of the collection, and the way it's laid out, with photos, biographies, and poems inspired by the subjects.
But the cons: I just had a ton of trouble getting into the poems themselves. Likewise, the short biographies of the women featured often seem incomplete, and are sometimes downright confusing. The most obvious example to come to mind is Joan Little, who is listed as born in 1953 with an "unknown" date of death. Wikipedia lists her as still alive, so…that's weird. At the very least, it requires further explanation, right?
Poetry is hardly in my wheelhouse, though, and judging from the other reviews, I'm in the minority here, so don't let my experiences dissuade you. Roxane Gay blurbed it, so.

Wait Until You See The Massive Snook That Crushes This Guy's Topwater Plug!
Published on July 10, 2017 under Explosive Bites, Inshore Fishing, Salt Strong
Well, here's some proof that it doesn't need to be warm in order to land a slob snook on a topwater lure…
In fact, it was sub-60 degrees according to angler Lawson Lindsey who caught this really nice snook on a topwater red/white Heddon Spook.
Watch as Lawson stays perfectly calm after a few missed strikes and sets the hook once he feels the fish on.
Well done man!
The biggest mistake many anglers make in a situation like this is trying to set the hook during one of those misses.
This will make any fisherman want to throw on a topwater and go after some lunker linesiders.
