The most important thing is to be passionate about what you're doing. It can be pretty difficult at times and in those times, the only thing that gets you through it are the little successes you achieve during the week or the month or by solving a problem or getting a new client.
Social?
The Social person's interests focus on interacting with the people in their environment. In all cases, the Social person enjoys the personal contact with other people in preference to the impersonal dealings with things, data and ideas found in other groups.

Many are drawn towards careers in the caring professions and social welfare area, whilst others prefer teaching and other 'informing' roles.

OSBI investigating reports of false affidavits in appeals cases
Thursday, January 15th 2004, 12:00 am
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) _ Employees of the Oklahoma Indigent Defense System are being investigated for using false affidavits in criminal appeals cases, according to a published report.
The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation is looking into allegations of false statements in a probe that began last spring, The Oklahoman reported in Thursday's editions.
Jim Bednar, executive director of the defense system, said he has been aware of the inquiry since March and his office complied with subpoenas.
No charges have been filed in the ongoing investigation.
Attorney General Drew Edmondson's office requested the investigation Nov. 13, 2002. It became public this week after two defense attorneys were concerned the inquiry had expanded to include them.
Attorney Jack Fisher has asked a federal judge to grant a temporary restraining order against Edmondson this week in a federal death penalty case.
Fisher complained that the OSBI's investigation was limiting his ability to obtain a recanted statement that might help get his client's murder conviction overturned.
In that request, Fisher accused Edmondson of using OSBI agents and ``the guise of a criminal investigation'' to threaten and intimidate defense attorneys, an investigator and a key witness who wanted to recant testimony that placed convicted murderers Paris Lapriest Powell and Yancy Lyndell Douglas at the scene of a shooting.
``The records reflect the prosecution concealed critical exculpatory evidence, and now that it is revealed, they are investigating us for misconduct,'' Fisher and attorney John Stuart said in a statement to The Oklahoman.
Fisher represents Powell. Stuart represents Douglas.
Federal Judge Robin Cauthron is expected to issue an order Thursday limiting the attorney general's ability to have state investigators contact witnesses, attorneys and investigators in the two death penalty cases she is reviewing.
Edmondson defended his actions saying his request for an investigation is based on ``our strong feeling in several cases that affidavits had been prepared which were simply false.''
``We haven't intimidated anybody, but we have discovered evidence of attempted perjury, and that's what we're running into in these cases,'' he said. ``We're talking about several (cases).''
``The only interest that we have in the people who recanted is, 'What is the truth?''' he said. ``And if they're telling us that they did not say the things that were put in the affidavit that ended up in court, then we are very interested in the investigator, first, and then the question of whether the attorney may have known that affidavit did not accurately reflect what the witness was saying.''

Zee TV's immensely popular singing reality show for kids- 'Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Li'l Champs' is back with its sixth season. The show premiered on Saturday, 25th February at 9 PM and is currently airing the audition episodes. The contestants from across the country are busy flooring the mentors and jury, vying for a spot in the competition. While all the aspiring child singers have an undying passion for singing, the willingness to learn and an urge to prove themselves, what remains unique is the story each one has to tell! Apart from some phenomenal singing, the show's recent shoot saw some hilarious moments where the judges- Himesh Reshammiya, Neha Kakkar and Javed Ali relived their childhood and indulged in some 'masti'.
Known for being one of the most soulful playback singers of India, 'Jaadu Bhaiya Mummy Wale' aka Javed Ali discovered a new talent of his on the show. The singer, it turns out, is also an amazing horse rider. During the show, Javed mounted a horse and serenaded one of the contestants – Shanmukhapriya's – mother. Shanmukhapriya's mother who thinks Javed Ali resembles Bahubali was absolutely thrilled when her favorite singer fulfilled her wish, donning the look of Bahubali by putting on a moustache and singing for her from a horseback. We cannot wait to see what else the talented Javed Ali will do in the coming episodes of this fun kid's reality show.
This season is bigger and better than ever before with talent flowing in abundance. Satyajeet Jena from Odisha blew the judges away with his melodious performance and is quickly becoming the audiences' favorite as his audition video was trending at number five on YouTube. Utkarsh Wankhede of Nagpur was not behind as he took the stage by storm singing A.R. Rehman and Gulzar Sahab's hit song 'Tere Bina' from the movie Guru. Breaking all records and setting the benchmark a notch higher, Shreyan Bhattacharyan's performance to Sapnon Se Bhare Naina was met with a standing ovation from everyone present. All the kids took the judges and jury by surprise as they unleashed their talent making the episode a memorable one. While the start of this musical journey has been spectacular, it will be an absolute treat to see these young singing prodigies grow in the weeks to come.
This weekend, be ready to watch the magic of singing come alive as the top 15 contestants set the stage on fire with their mellifluous voices.

Brilliant ensemble brings raw exuberance to controversial subjects
UrbanTheater Chicago i/a/w Pegasus Players presents
Review by K.D. Hopkins
The UrbanTheater Company picked the perfect time to stage the Midwest premiere of Fucking A. I would say that it is the perfect political climate but, in America, pre- or post-Apocalyptic – depending upon who you ask – is always fertile for controversy. Playwright Suzan-Lori Parks has written a brilliant riff on Nathaniel Hawthorne's "The Scarlet Letter" that illustrates how evolved and devolved this nation is.
Kelly Owens, as Hester Smith (the post-modern Hester Prynne), delivers a performance I will not soon forget. In a perfectly measured style, Owens dispenses loneliness, aching love, razor sharp bitterness, and terror as the town abortionist. The town is never named but stands as Babel fallen with all survivors under the heels of the wealthy and politically connected. The citizens of this bleak society live under the constant threat of an arbitrary penal system that has no delineation between adult and child. Hester performs abortions to pay the 'freedom fund' for her son taken to prison at the age of five.
Abortion is legal but only if you wear a branded "A", always exposed on your left side. The citizenry is in an atavistic state where they have returned to the basest survival instincts. Hester and her best friend Mary Canary can literally smell when a new customer approaches needing her services. Mary Canary (Lyndsay Rose Kane) is also the mistress of a sleazy local politician simply known as The Mayor. Kane's performance is raw, sweet, and darkly funny.
The banter between Hester and Canary is loving and humorous. The women in this civilization speak "The Talk" which is a secret language about their sexuality. Parks' script makes an insightful and heavy statement about how women's sexuality has been clouded with the need for shame. Services and rights for women's reproductive necessities have been driven underground in one way or another with every political administration in America. "The Talk" language is both a shield and a weapon. A translation is projected in supertitles that are emotionally charged in shades of red and black. The projections mirror the bloody world in the foreground. Everything is sparse and dark with blood as an accent. Hester's tools of her trade are presented in a zinc bucket with the steel glinting as she spreads them out for work.
The Mayor (played with smarmy effectiveness by the wonderful Kamal Hans) married a rich girl whose family money made his political ascent possible. First Lady (played with a deceiving gentleness by Amrita Dhaliwal) is the one who sent Hester's son Boy Smith to the Penal System. Dhaliwal veers on being too delicate and helpless; it seems that there is an attempt to redeem her character because she is deemed barren and of course misunderstood. The again, this is a story of women's empowerment no matter the method.
There is a ray of light in this story when Hester connects with Butcher played by Madrid St. Angelo. St. Angelo brings a much needed gentle balance of humanity to the story. Butcher really is the district butcher who falls in love with Hester, leaving her gifts of meat and offering her human contact. St. Angelo is amazing as he counts off the litany of crimes that his daughter has committed. It is both funny and a bit scary because some of the crimes are arbitrary such as 'standing on one leg in a two legged zone'. Butcher is a sensitive man who has taken the time to try and learn "The Talk". The chemistry between Hester and Butcher is made dangerously erotic in the hands of these skilled actors.
The ensemble is brilliant and brings exuberance to some controversial subjects. The story of Hester trying to reunite with her son Boy (Lance Newton) is both heart wrenching and horrifying. Newton plays this role with jagged emotions on the surface. Bert Matias, one of my favorite Chicago actors, has played some seriously twisted characters, but they are always endearing and achingly human at heart. He doesn't disappoint in Fucking A as Scribe, who gets paid to write all of Hester's letters to Boy in prison. Matias is both refreshing comic relief and part of the prison gang ensemble. David Guiden's role as Jailbait is a brilliant departure from the last time I saw him onstage for Lifeline's The 13 Clocks (my review), and his brutal performance as the prisoner sent to fool Hester is unforgettable and also difficult to watch. However, I could not look away from any of the performances.
Richard Perez' direction is tight and smooth. The spoken scenes that segue into songs are done in great musical form. This is great theater and it deserves a wide audience, especially because of the subject matter. Decisions of life and death are never simple to the thinking and feeling human being. Hester lights a candle for every abortion that she performs. It may be a blessing to a soul delayed or penance but what of that final candle? There was audible weeping in the audience on the night I attended.
There is no doubt that the subject matter of this play is very adult in nature, but it is also deeply human. There is a connecting point when a young woman may be on the precipice of either rejecting or receiving advice, and I would have definitely taken my daughter when she was a teenager to get a mature and insightful dialog going about how women are treated in society. Abortion is not the central theme of Fucking A – the play explores and exposes issues of identity, hypocrisy, and sexual repression. It is perhaps the most theatrically truthful exploration of the seeds of violence and of women's participation as both victims and perpetrators that I have seen. Whomever you take to this play – and you should take someone – you will have plenty to talk about when the lights go up.
Fucking A continues through April 15th at Pegasus Players Beacon Street Hull House Theater, 4520 N. Beacon (map), with performances Thursdays-Saturdays at 7pm, Sundays 3pm. Tickets are $20, and are available by phone (312-239-8783) or online at OvationTix.com (check for half-price tickets at Goldstar.com). More information at UrbanTheaterChicago.org. (Running time: 2 hours with one 15 minute intermission)

Day by day technologies are becoming more convenient at our life and here we are going to know about the latest invention which smart scooter handles free, that will make our communication activities too comfortable with its best performance. This smart scooter is one person controlled modern transmission vehicles that consist of two-wheeled self-balancing scooter popularly called a " HoverBoard" without a doubt a fun and interesting device worthful for use.
Before ride a hoverboard one thing is important to use this scooter that's safety fast, those persons are too much excited to use this scooter if they make it out of control that means too fast operate, unfortunately, can get accident resulting from explosions and falls.
So at first, we need to know about this smart scooter's operation that means controlling process then we can safely use. The following thread gives us about best hoverboards riding information as well as some to get the better idea about this smart scooter operation process.
The company's new 2-wheel balance scooter is a powerful 4.4MP rechargeable battery built by Boost Segway. The battery can be fully recharged in two hours and end in advance. Manufacturers test the battery life of their products, and these two cycle balance scooters have a battery charge of 1000. It's a little bit of what you think. Whenever you need it, be sure to continue it.
Distribution products also include a one-year US support warranty, then you can get tension free using performance. One of the most things is mainly important to use this scooter that's safety fast, those persons are too much excited to use this scooter if they make it out of control that means too fast operate, at a few unpleasant experiences such as accidents resulting from explosions and falls.
If you are not familiar with mountaineering corners, it is a self-cooperative scooter that can run with you on the most shields that's a. Two wheel scooters have a 15-degree cut angle, which means you can take high grades without performance or any drop in uncomforting.
For better riding performance you must be considered important in the corner of the emergence of an electric scooter while buying your transportation device. When using the city, the 10-degree Fahrenheit angle is a product that is very difficult.
With the help of powerful engines, Segways will not allow you to stop the products or burn crabs, and also make hills with shadows; by paddle, you can control your moving direction. A riding hoverboard is perfect to transport within your nearest location.
This is too friendly to operate with its speed control, even your child can do, whenever you're finally member are going to use that handle free scooter, just need to keep that device full charger in a day one-time charge is required. Hoverboot Mini Segway has a maximum driving range of about 12-15 miles which is really amazing to think, you can charge a device for an hour and use it for that long distance.
Many people who started using autonomous scooters tried to use them as a legitimate means of successfully transferring a high-driving range to you, even taking a scooter, even if you do not want to travel for fun.
Other skateboards that use tires with air, this special edition uses a piece of solid rubber tires. The tire is very good to offer a comfortable tour for the customers to absorb the street alarms and cracks. Also, do not worry about spraying tires and staying away from your home from flats. Compared to the free windshield with Tiger, Hoverboard offers more fear trips, but it's not like an off-piston course and serious irregular surfaces, where you can ride easily with comfortable.
Here you can get about the most important point of view, that makes your hoverboard riding to flexible even just you can handle that.
Warranty: The warranty of this product is supported by a US company and available for one year. Extended protection plans available for this product on Amazon.
Durable construction: Scooter is made of durable materials and resists colored scratches.
Format – Walking 15 miles away is critically impressive, but you can use this hoverboard then you can arrive your point at right time.
Zero Thick Diameters: This thing is ideal for throwing a coin and for small spaces or indoor use.
Powerful Dual Motors: Two 250 Watt Motors that you can get at a speed of 10 miles per hour. Recommended helmets for your best safety and you can more easily control them if the speed not high.
Electric LED indicator: For the better understanding it includes the LED indicator light that helps you how long it will run just a separate battery screen on top of the scooter suggests that you want to stop going to your home to recharge.
Some of the hoverboards, there has no Bluetooth is available, so we can say we lost a favorite function is missing here with other hoverboards we can use loudspeakers on the music board to play music with some hoverboards that make our riding comfortably. If we find out a smart featured hoverboard then it'll be fine.
The best thing to do today is the cheap hoverboards are more convenient for today's those who wanna make a practice match with this hoverboard.

Rimawi also indicated that Israeli violations monitored by MADA center were recorded in 15 different types of violations, with new types practiced by Israeli parties emerged last year; as a new approach to suppress Palestinian media and media freedom in general.
perceptions of media freedom have drifted downward since 2010 (89%).
If we conceptualize censorship as a threat to media freedom based on citizens' assessments of their media supply and demand, then reactance theory provides a basis for understanding how such assessments may increase the likelihood of using online information sources as an alternative to mass media.
There are some obstacles when it comes to media freedom, the situation needs to improve and the government should take more measures," said Momani.
In the Arab World, there is no regional agreement that clearly talks about what media freedom is," Monir Zaarour, Coordinator for the International Federation of Journalists, told The Daily Star.
The journalist expressed his gratitude for his supporters and those who called for his release, along with his colleagues, while humbly acknowledging that he always knew his supporters were ultimately calling for media freedom, especially in the Arab world, rather than simply for the release of three journalists.
He said: "The purpose of this conference is the analysis of achievements, problems and prospects of media in Tajikistan over the past year and preparation of a roadmap in improving the situation of media freedom in the country" .
These attacks put at risk the gains in media freedom in Afghanistan since 2001.
State Department called on Turkish authorities to protect media freedom and other democratic values in response to media raids and detentions in operations across Turkey on Sunday.
From the contents in this issue: 'Google Ruling Affects Reform of EU Data Protection Rules', 'European Children's Films Sell Better Than Those for Adults', 'EU Condemns New Threats to Media Freedom in Hungary', EU Condemns New Threats to Media Freedom in Hungary'.
A qualitative companion to the Global Media Freedom Dataset, the Historical Guide to World Media Freedom is an analytical history of media freedom that examines both the concept itself and definitions utilized as evaluation, description, and explanation shifts in the media environment over time.
Over 170 cases have been submitted on a new media freedom crowdsourcing platform since its launch in end-May, while about half of the mapped cases of censorship and violations that spread in all 28 EU member states and candidate countries occurred in Southern and Southeast Europe.

befriend
Although women demonstrate a fight or flight reaction during stressful incidents that arise suddenly, they tend and befriend soon afterward by nurturing their children or connecting with others. (goodtherapy.org)
Research has shown that when female animals engage in tend and befriend behaviors, even more oxytocin is released that further reduces stress. (goodtherapy.org)
Dr. Taylor and colleague Laura Klein, PhD, suspect that the tend and befriend behavior in women, particularly as it pertains to social connections, may explain why women outlive men. (goodtherapy.org)
Tend may refer to: Attend (attention) Bartend, to serve beverages behind a bar Tend and befriend, a behavioural pattern exhibited by human beings and some animal species when under threat Looking after trees, a part of silviculture. (wikipedia.org)
Tend-and-befriend is a behavior exhibited by some animals, including humans, in response to threat. (wikipedia.org)
In evolutionary psychology, tend-and-befriend is theorized as having evolved as the typical female response to stress, just as the primary male response was fight-or-flight. (wikipedia.org)

It refers to protection of offspring (tending) and seeking out the social group for mutual defense (befriending). (wikipedia.org)
Machine tending refers to the process of automating the loading and unloading of industrial machine tools in a manufacturing plant, primarily using robot automation systems. (wikipedia.org)
Thus, affiliation under stress serves tending needs, including protective responses towards offspring. (wikipedia.org)
Tend Skin® Liquid effectively reduces appearance of unsightly razor bumps. (walgreens.com)
When faced with stress, females often respond by tending to offspring, which in turn reduces stress levels. (wikipedia.org)
Regular application of Tend Skin Liquid will reduce appearance of existing ingrown hairs without tweezing for both men and women. (walgreens.com)
A new study says that women who contribute more to the household finances, as compared to their husbands or partners, tend to do more housework. (medindia.net)
Women are more likely to respond to stress through tending and befriending than men. (wikipedia.org)
Among foraging societies without modern birth control methods, women have high parity, tending to give birth about every four years during their reproductive lifespan. (wikipedia.org)
While loading and unloading is the primary function of machine tending systems, often the robot performs other valuable functions within the automation system such as part inspection, blow off, wash, deburring, sorting, packaging and gauging. (wikipedia.org)
Benefits of machine tending systems include: increased productivity decreased manufacturing labor decreased overall costs improved quality enhanced safety operational flexibility inventory optimization Because of the sophistication, functionality and costs associated with machine tending systems, most manufacturers require a capital approval process prior to investing in these systems where executive management must approve the purchase. (wikipedia.org)
Her books include The Tending Instinct and Social Cognition, the latter by Susan Fiske and Shelley Taylor. (wikipedia.org)
Such employees, Barnett said, are hard on themselves, tend to take things personally, withdraw when things get intense and can have trouble dealing with other workers-especially those who don't share their same perception of stress. (shrm.org)

There is a family meeting today and while this is nothing like the one of the past, I can't help but every once in a while get a surge of panic which shoots through my veins!!
It's like going into an employee review. Even if things are going well, you fear the worst. I hope that everything went well today. I am SO glad to hear that her feedings went well. She is such a strong little girl!


Last February, FedEx took the retail world by storm when they announced the launch of FedEx Fulfillment, its answer to Amazon FBA. FedEx Fulfillment is an ecommerce fulfillment and inventory management service meant to help small and medium-sized retailers fulfill orders from multiple channels.
With the exception of Prime, FedEx Fulfillment seems like a replica of Amazon FBA. But is FedEx Fulfillment a good alternative to Amazon FBA? Is it a threat to Amazon's fulfillment program? Read on to see if FedEx Fulfillment is right for your business.
FedEx Fulfillment gives multi-channel sellers another option if they feel limited by FBA fees and requirements. Retailers will be able to store their inventory at FedEx warehouses, and FedEx Fulfillment will handle the whole order fulfillment process, from warehousing the products, packaging and delivery to online returns.
Amazon still relies on shipping partners, including FedEx, UPS and USPS to deliver orders to customers. When you use Amazon Multi-Channel Fulfillment (MCF), Amazon fulfills the order and selects a carrier for delivery. Amazon gets huge discounts from its shipping partners, but these savings are only passed on to you if you sell products on Amazon.
In other words, if you use MCF to fulfill non-Amazon orders, your costs will be higher. Also, keep in mind that selling through FBA exposes your sales numbers to Amazon. With FedEx Fulfillment, you can cut out the middleman and have greater flexibility, privacy and control over your sales and inventory, with less restrictions and prying from Amazon.
FedEx Fulfillment allows you to price items lower when you sell on other marketplaces. Sellers could also offer more shipping options, such as second day or next day shipping. Finally, FedEx does not compete with its customers, compared to Amazon which prioritizes its own inventory and Prime-eligible items.
FedEx Fulfillment will empower multi-channel sellers and enable even the smaller sellers to provide lower prices on other marketplaces. Amazon may soon see competitive pricing from eBay, Walmart and Jet.
Amazon is still the top dog in ecommerce and the most trusted marketplace in the US. The Amazon Buy Box already favors sellers using the FBA program, so if you're a seller using FedEx Fulfillment, you can expect lower conversions because of the competition.
The biggest difference between FedEx Fulfillment and Amazon FBA is Prime - the opportunity to highlight your products as Prime-eligible to the highest online spenders. You will either need to be an FBA seller or fulfill using Seller Fulfilled Prime.
Some industry watchers believe FedEx Fulfillment is in no way a competition to Amazon FBA. After all, FedEx has chosen not to disclose their pricing, and instead opted for a "variable fee structure" so it's unclear whether or not FedEx Fulfillment is actually cheaper than FBA. FedEx will also take time to scale.
Amazon is also building out its own delivery systems and logistics infrastructure to one day eliminate the need for its shipping partners, which in turn, could mean lower shipping costs for FBA sellers.
Given its speedy counterattack to Walmart's 2-day free shipping offer, Amazon is known to react swiftly when it perceives a threat. So far, there hasn't been any price drops in FBA storage fees. Perhaps, it is more helpful to see FedEx's offering as supplemental fulfillment option - rather than a replacement - to FBA.
With this alternative, sellers can explore different fulfillment methods, pricing tactics and marketplaces, thus informing their multi-channel strategy to better fit their needs, budgets and goals. High volume sellers definitely need more flexibility and control, but the more options you have, the more complex your operations become.
Fortunately, Jazva offers powerful features that help retailers simplify multi-channel ecommerce. Integrated with leading carriers and marketplaces, Jazva is the best alternative to custom software, giving you everything you need to run your business at ⅓ the cost of ERP systems.


How to Do Backyard Landscaping. Backyard landscaping is more than just mere aesthetics. It has something to do with ones well being. Not only that it beautifies the home but it actually gives people the feeling of comfort and peace of mind. People get into this practice not only for themselves but also for their family.
They make some changes with the look of their backyard to the one they desire it to look like. As a result, they can just sit back and relax with the view of their backyard. It is creating a unique world, which you can actually say your own. And at the end of each long day, it serves as your sanctuary.
Backyard landscaping is not as easy as it looks like, not for those who do not have any experience with this kind of practice. But then it does not have to be that hard. Some do it themselves while some just hire somebody to do the job. The choice is always yours on what you want your backyard to look like. You cannot afford to waste your time, effort, and money when your backyard is even messed up. It is a process and is planned carefully.
There are things that should be taken into consideration before you can go ahead and do it your own. But then if you do not know how to do backyard landscaping, it is better then to get some help because you do not want to screw up and you may even end up spending more money just to have it fixed.
If the concept is simple, then you can just go ahead and do it yourself. But toward the irrigation, elevations, those kinds of stuff, it is best to leave it on the good hands of professionals that are actually trained and experienced in the field of backyard landscaping.
Things might go beyond your capacities so you should watch out and be careful as you go about doing a landscape with your backyard because, again, you cannot afford to mess it all up. For you to learn more about backyard landscaping, you can go to the nearest public library and get some resource books about the practice.
You can also go online and get some tips on how to do it effectively and efficiently. These resources will help you decide on what concept best fits your backyard and other important factors that should be taken into consideration. You may also take a crash course in landscaping if you are really serious about doing it.


I said I wouldn't post until I got back from our vacay, but I couldn't hold back from this post.
First of all, here's a little update on our trip so far: we went to Florida yesterday (had a blast) and have been relaxing at the Beau Rivage in Biloxi. We plan on going out on my cousin's boat today in Vancleave.
While we were in Florida, we went to Stinky's Fish Camp and it's safe to say that it's one of my favorite restaurants. It's located off of 30A in Santa Rosa. One of my cousins, Brannon, is the chef there, and let me tell you, he hooked us up. We had a HUGE platter full of appetizers, delicious entrees, and a to-go platter full of cakes and pies. Okay, so it wasn't the healthiest foods of choice and I might be in a food coma for the rest of the trip, but that's okay!
The point of my blog splurge today is just that. Don't feel guilty if you have a cheat meal. It won't kill you. This was a struggle of mine for a while and now I finally can say that I won't beat myself up over one enjoyable meal....and besides, it's vacation!
A lot of people (I was guilty of this too) think that if you mess up on one meal, then you're done. No more healthy eating because you blew it. "Eh, I already ate crappy, so it doesn't matter." Not true! Another thing people do (I was also guilty of this one too) is get a cheat meal confused with a cheat day. "Oh, I will eat bad today and just start over tomorrow." Don't let yourself give into a cheat day. Lastly, people (aka me) tend to have a few cheat meals a week. That's a bad habit too. It's one habit that I actually am still trying to break.
So it's okay to have a cheat meal, just don't let it turn into something you'll regret later! If you're trying to lose weight, then have a small cheat meal once a week, and then start to aim for having one just once a month!
You can do it! Trust me. There are a lot of replacements for food you crave. Kind of like ice-cream, for instance. A good alternative would be blended frozen bananas with a little vanilla extract, or frozen Greek yogurt. Now, here's another problem people have: they think that if something's healthier, then they can eat it whenever they want without limits. Stick to serving sizes and limit the sweets, like ice-cream or froyo, to once a week.
Another good replacement idea for all of you bread and pasta lovers would be 100% whole wheat, brown rice pasta, or quinoa pasta. If you like tortillas, try switching to corn. Also, here's a little tip.. I try NOT to have these things after lunch! Any questions about that, ask me.
There are a lot of great alternatives to foods you love! If you want more ideas, let me know by asking below. Another tip, the less processed, the better! You will get the best benefits from REAL food like fruits, veggies, lean meats, etc. If the food can stay "fresh" for longer than a week, then it's probably not the best choice.
And if you're ever feeling guilty about a meal, just know that it's not going to kill you. If you are eating well for 90% of the time, you will be just fine! If you are really concerned, then wait and go on a little walk or run. Burn those cals. Aaaannnnd of course continue to drink your water throughout the day!
Just these few little changes can make a big difference!
I also thought I would post some pics from a walk we went on this morning. We walked the Biloxi bridge which was about 3.5 miles down and back altogether. It was pretty neat!
I hope y'all are having a wonderful weekend!


We love this fun collection of Rabbit prints from HAMMade showing rabbits in human like poses getting up to various antics. The Wine Tasting Rabbit print is screen printed by hand in black ink on off white high grade paper. Sold Unframed the HAM Wine Tasting Rabbit print will fit a standard 30x40cm frame.

LG completely withdraws from smartphone business
On the morning of April 5, 2021, LG announced that it would end its global mobile phone business. LG says it will continue to support existing products but will focus on more profitable areas such as smart appliances or electric vehicle components.
LG didn't win as much as Samsung, but it did make a big difference in the global smartphone industry. For a while, it teamed up with Google to offer three Nexus Phones. LG was also one of the makers of Google's Pixel smartphone.
Unfortunately, LG's mobile business has been struggling for years. LG's board of directors has finally approved the decision to shut down its slow smartphone business entirely.
LG's mobile phone business is expected to be completely closed by July 31, 2021. However, some of the existing models will continue to be sold. The company promises to continue to support existing products and to update the software. Given LG's efforts when it was running the mobile phone business, some have questioned whether this policy could be followed.
The smartphone industry was fiercely competitive, but LG has dropped out of the race. LG has been providing handsets since the dawn of the market and it has built up a track record in alliances with Google. However, drastic changes and the rise of new players have tormented the company.

Our relationship with the Arkansas Children's Hospital Nursery Alliance can really benefit our patients and Ashley County Medical Center."
Neonatologists at ACH will provide immediate consults to physicians at ACMC, educational support, quality data review, and implementation of best practices in collaboration with ACH for the purpose of improving neonatal care close to home and provide support as needed to help the babies at ACMC or at ACH get the best care possible.

Confusion as Kenyans prepare to go to the polls

Supporters at an election rally in Nairobi cheer for President KenyattaTONY KARUMBA/GETTY IMAGES
Less than a week before Kenyans return to the polls, the country faced further uncertainty when the main opposition leader refused yesterday to say whether he would take part.
Raila Odinga told a crowd in the city of Kisumu beside Lake Victoria that he would announce "the way forward" the day before the poll on Thursday. "I can assure that this matter, we shall conclude it in an amicable way," he said. "People won't believe it."
President Kenyatta said that security was being increased while last-minute preparations were being made for the poll to go ahead. This week his Jubilee coalition asked the Supreme Court to stop Mr Odinga from calling protests on election day.

Mr Wuddah agrees to pay a proportion….
I am glad to hear that you have received a feed back from the attorney and the fee of £575 is not much of a problem going by what you have explained but here in Ghana, we are not allowed to send money out of Ghana through the Western Union or Money Gram service but can only received through them, which makes it rather impossible for me to send money to you.
Secondly, we will have a little problem with an existing law here, which stipulates that for any international transfer such as this, for which the beneficiary is not resident in the country, and regarding which a legal attorney has to represent such beneficiary, a payment evidence directly from the beneficiary bearing such beneficiary's name, must be presented by the representing attorney before the notarisation can be obtained.
This is necessary, to prove that the beneficiary actually exist and he / she is the person authorizing the representing attorney to obtain the Notarization from the court on his / her behalf because government claims that many prominent figures in our society, have transferred huge amount of money outside this country under the disguise that the beneficiary is not present in the country.
For this reason, this law exist that there must be a payment receipt from the non resident beneficiary which must be presented to the court before the Notarization can be obtained. Having explained all of these, I will need you to send to the lawyer, at least £200.00 together with the copy of the payment receipt so that he can present it in order to obtain the notarization, while I will give a confidant friend the balance of £375 to take to the lawyer's office or make him have it on your behalf, any way he instructs.
Get back to me as soon as you send this to the lawyer and let me know on time, so that I make him have the balance.
Keep me posted as soon as you do this.

Connecting People to Christ is the goal of our Small Groups, and good curriculum can help. Contact me if you'd like to check out any of the DVD's mentioned in the video. Wildwood's sermon follow-up questions are an excellent option for Small Groups to use….

Here for your delectation is the SPECTACULAR & RARE------------------I DO NOT KNOW A DAY I DID NOT LOVE YOU by Richard Rodgers and Martin Charnin for PIANO /VOICE /GUITAR.
Doris? Dennis??........................
Two By Two is a Broadway musical with a book by Peter Stone, lyrics by Martin Charnin, and music by Richard Rodgers.
Based on Clifford Odets's play The Flowering Peach, it tells the story of Noah's preparations for the Great Flood and its aftermath.
Directed by Joe Layton, the production opened on November 10, 1970 at the Imperial Theatre, where it ran for ten months. The opening night cast included Danny Kaye, Marilyn Cooper, Joan Copeland, Harry Goz, Madeline Kahn, Michael Karm, Tricia O'Neil, and Walter Willison.
Reviews were mixed and Kaye, unhappy with the script, began to improvise on a nightly basis. His ad-libbed shtick and comic asides to the audience were crowd-pleasers, and word-of-mouth helped business. When he broke his foot, Kaye continued with the show, appearing at each performance either on crutches or in a wheelchair. Kaye's lack of professionalism and Rodgers' public grousing about the liberties he took with the script allegedly ruined his chances for a Tony Award nomination.
Willison was nominated for a Tony Award for Best Featured Actor in a Musical, and he and O'Neil received Theatre World Awards for their performances.
This is the OVERSIZED (it didn't fit in my scanner!) stated MORRIS EDITION from 1970. It is in excellent condition. There are no rips, tears, markings, etc. (see photo). Check my feedback to see that I sell exactly as I describe. So bid now for this magnificent, impossible-to-find SHEET MUSIC COLLECTIBLE.

About Gallery Aferro
The mission of Gallery Aferro is to function as a platform for the exchange of ideas in service of advancing human dignity and beauty, with a focus on visual arts as the vehicle, proudly located in Newark, NJ.
Gallery Aferro hosts several public exhibitions spaces amongst the first 2 floors of 73 Market Street. The first floor is primarily occupied by our Main Gallery, an expansive open-floor space designed for large-scale exhibitions, events, film screenings, workshops, artist talks, and more. Our 2nd floor is comprised of several distinct spaces primarily comprised of the Eleta J. Caldwell & Rodney M. Gilbert Memorial Gallery, a large exhibiting space dedicated to two beloved local supporters and advocates for the arts that the Newark community lost in 2017. Gallery Aferro has also hosted a public art program entitled Activate: Market Street, consisting of several refurbished unused store-front displays on Market Street. Although these displays are no longer in regular curatorial rotation, the expansive installation Market Street Perennial is on permanent display across the Washington Street and Market Street block.
Although exhibiting artwork is one of Gallery Aferro's primary mission-based goals, we work to expand the types of spaces and communal experiences we are able to offer. Immediately upon entering the gallery is Art Shop, a gift shop designed by Gallery Aferro to highlight artworks for sale with a focus on affordable works as well as Gallery Aferro's growing publication line of more than 27 artist books, exhibition catalogs, essays, and sound art CDs. Additionally, on the 2nd floor we offer Gallery Aferro's Community Book Room, containing over 2000 books, magazine, journals, and other publications, with couches and board games for the public to enjoy; as well as Gallery Aferro's Elevator Music Installation, a refurbished vintage Otis elevator designed to exhibit an ongoing series of experimental sound art publications.
The rest of our building is primarily dedicated to Gallery Aferro's Studio Residency Program. Consisting of 17 studios, the year-round residency program was designed to uplift artists and help encourage an environment where artists can make work as large, ambitious, or complex as desired. Selection is based on a demonstrated commitment to a chosen field, especially in the face of financial or other personal disadvantage, excellence of work, an interest in engaging with the public via one's art-making process, and by the probable effect the program will have in allowing art-making that otherwise would not have been possible. Participation in the residency program includes a platform to share and participate in a community of artists and others through informal networking and participation in seasonal open studios and artist talks at the gallery. Gallery Aferro is also dedicated to providing opportunities to our residents in the form of exhibitions, off-site talks, advocacy, visiting curators, and letters of recommendation.
Along with these many programs and public offerings, Gallery Aferro offers education programs and unique arts experiences for youth and adults. Our educational offerings include group tours, public talks, and a wide range of workshops. We've originated educational programs like Identity Blueprint, a cyanotype photography intensive for high school aged girls in Newark, as well as a "How To Photograph Your Artwork" workshop for artists interested in progressing the quality of their professional assets without breaking the bank. We've also hosted programs designed by local educators like drawing workshops, music production classes, and more. Additionally, our internship program is a comprehensive program focused on skill sharing, developing talent, and building informal networks amongst our interns that have grown into collaborative partnerships and interpersonal support that we believe is crucial to success in the professional art world.
Another major project Gallery Aferro originated is the Aferro Mobile Portrait Studio. Through funding provided by the Newark 350th Celebration and other partner organizations we were able to purchase a trailer, stock it with professional-grade photographic equipment, and tow it to community events across the city. Gallery Aferro photographed Newarkers for free, creating a digital archive of over 1000 people who live, work, and play in Newark, NJ, as well as an exhibition displaying 350 of the best portraits we took for Newark Open Doors 2016, Newark's citywide arts festival.
The gallery has been recognized for our notable fluency in developing innovative partnerships and collaborations with an extraordinary range of museums, galleries, universities, arts organizations, and collectives. Select partnerships over the years include the Montclair Art Museum, the Newark Museum, Polish Cultural Institute, the Price Institute for Ethnicity, Culture and the Modern Experience, Newark Riverfront Revival, New Jersey Symphony Orchestra, Critical Practices Inc., and Harvestworks. In 2016 alone we collaborated with Creative Capital, the New Jeru Poetry Slam, People's Open Mic, I'm So Yoga Newark, the Newark Arts Education Roundtable, Oculus Art Collaborative, People's Prep Charter School, Newark Pride, Urban and Out, the Cooperative Development Institute, Grab a Beat Dance Studio, Them Cloud Kids, Yendor Productions and Rutgers University, the Montclair State Film Department, Community Integrated Services, City Without Wall's ArtReach program, Hycide and Bridges Outreach, Free Press, the Essential Elements Collective, and the many high schools, colleges, and universities whose students visit or intern here.
Despite our comparative organizational youth, we've served as the sole Newark and even NJ representation as part of larger nationwide initiatives such as the 2009 nationwide screenings organized by PPOW Gallery (NYC), and 2013's GhostFood Truck, part of Marfa Dialogues on Climate Change from the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation (NYC) and Ballroom Marfa (TX). Gallery Aferro's directors represented the North East on a nationwide panel on community engagement hosted by the College Art Association. Gallery Aferro's Gallery Director Emma Wilcox also gave a TedX talk in 2016 about art, audience, community, power dynamics, resistance, and the "strange and enduring power of arts experiences" such as the Aferro Mobile Portrait Studio.
We are featured regularly in the press including a feature on NJ State of the Arts, NBC News TV, NJ Monthly Magazine, Design NJ Magazine, WBGO radio, Remezcla.com, Huffington Post, NJTV, NJ.com, Ironbound Unbound, Rutgers Magazine, the Star Ledger, the Wall Street Journal, the Daily Record, Inside NJ, Fast Company, NJ Biz, Rutgers Magazine, Two Coats of Paint, notwhatitis.com, artcorejournal.net, and Hyperallergic. The co-directors were invited to join the 2013 convening of the Gustav Heningburg Civic Fellowship, Rutgers Institute for Culture, Ethnicity and the Modern Experience, and jointly shared the honor of the Printmaking Center of NJ's 2013 Erena Ray Award for Art and Social Justice.
Gallery Aferro has experienced significant growth since our 2003 founding, becoming a recognized multigenerational space where art is made, experienced and discussed. Our space is an important place for hundreds of people from Newark and surrounding communities. "Many young people and even adults assume that art galleries aren't for them… It has been important in the community that Gallery Aferro has always been open to the public- to young people and the general public- to just explore. Kids talk, so when my mentee comes back to school he can say he went with his mentor to an art gallery." –Artist, Newarker and youth mentor Malik Hardaway-Whitaker.

New Online Guide for Preventing Substance Abuse in Early Childhood Years
Dr. Elizabeth Robertson
Fox 6 (Birmingham) – March 14
Keeping children away from drugs and alcohol is a top concern for many parents. And while many people may think of this as a risk mostly in the teen years, a new online guide, authored by a University of Alabama professor, stresses the importance of preventing substance abuse in the early childhood years. Dr. Elizabeth Robertson, who is now Associate Dean for Research at UA's College of Human Environmental Sciences, developed the online guide while she was working with the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). The guide outlines seven principles of substance abuse prevention, from the prenatal stage through age eight. In developing the guide, Robertson reviewed a great volume of research on the topic. Her main finding was that focusing on substance abuse prevention very early in life can have benefits for decades to come, even on other aspects of a child's life.
Please visit "New online guide stresses importance of preventing substance abuse in early childhood years" for the WBRC FOX 6 News article.
Spring Leadership Board
The HES Leadership Board was established in the spring of 2005 with the goal of bringing together alumni and friends of the College who wish to help support the students, faculty, and the programs of HES. The Board's semi-annual meeting was held on March 4, 2016 at the Child Development Research Center.
After a wonderful lunch and visiting with friends both old and new, the group was called to order by Leadership Board President, Mrs. Annie Hunter Galloway. University President, Dr. Stuart Bell, spoke to the group about his trip to Washington D.C. with our 2015 National Championship football team and Coach Nick Saban to meet President Obama.
Mrs. Amy Baker-Parton gave a development update and Dean Boschung spoke about the UA's Strategic Plan, the speakers for the Crenshaw Leadership Academy, and other current events and accomplishments of our college.
Mr. Daniel Womble, an athletic training student and Crenshaw fellow, thanked the group for their investment in students' lives and assured them their investment would not return void. Dr. Elizabeth Roberts spoke about her research on Preventing Drug Abuse Through Early Childhood Interventions and Dr. Linda Knol explained the new Culinary Medicine Initiative. Dr. Mary Kay Meyer told the group about plans for the new electronic edition of our cookbook, "Nothing But The Best".
Thanks to all who came from far and near on such a cold and dreary day!
Members enjoy a delicious lunch
