The home buying process may seem simple at first. Just find the house you want and make an offer, right? Well, once you begin the process of finding that perfect home, you will quickly realize things are not as simple as they seem. There are many aspects to the home buying process, and most of which can easily become confusing or difficult to understand. Navigating the home buying process so it is easy and pain-free takes experience and knowledge beyond the seemingly simple pre-buying perspective.
With that said, here are 12 steps you need to understand in the home buying process.
Most home searches nowadays begin online. Start searching online, and even offline, for homes that interest you. Monitor how long they stay on the market. See what is available in the price range you have in mind. Take note of how prices change and look at all these factors in the location you desire. The more you research, the more educated you will become, and the easier the home buying process will be for you when you are ready to buy a house.
The price listed for a home is not the final say on affordability. There are several factors consider when budgeting for a home purchase. Most lenders recommend buying a home that costs about three to five times your annual income – that is, if you plan on making a 20% down payment. Everyone's financial situation is different, however. Along with income, you should also consider your current debt and expenses and determine how much you can afford on a monthly basis, which will depend partly on how your mortgage loan's interest rate affects it.
Once you determined your home-buying budget, it's time to look into a mortgage loan. Interest rates are vitally important in the home buying process, and the right lender can make all the difference. A mortgage banker will asses all of your financial information and your credit to establish how much the bank can lend you and to determine an available interest rate with the loan. Based on the market and your financial situation, your mortgage banker can "lock in" a rate for you for a period of time, often 30 days. This part of the home buying process helps you determine exactly how much you can spend on a home and assures you of a desirable interest rate while you search for the home you want.
All of these steps in the process can begin to seem daunting and more confusing as the momentum builds toward finding the perfect home. That's why this step is perhaps the most important: finding the right realtor®. Experienced realtors® understand the home buying process well. A good realtor® has developed negotiating skills, familiarity with the area you wan to live in, and the knowledge and information needed to make the entire process seem effortless. They consider schools and neighborhoods, using the right lender, and working with a trusted title company. Finding the right realtor® is vital to buying the right home at the right price. Best of all, it doesn't cost you anything to use a realtor®. They are compensated on commission paid by the home seller.
Start looking at and visiting homes in your price range and desired area. You may have a list of things you want in a home, but pay attention to the details of the homes you visit and take note of features you like and don't like. Take photos and video if necessary. Let your realtor® know what you want and look at several homes to get a clear picture for both of you. Visiting houses also gives you a chance to check in person for issues or problems that may not be known or disclosed. It also lets you see the neighborhood, surrounding homes, streets, and nearness to places of interest.
Once you find a home you love, inform your realtor® that you'd like to make an offer. This is another step in the process in which you will benefit from an experienced realtor®. While homes are listed at a specific price, your agent can negotiate a fair offer based on comparable homes and the information gathered through a little investigation. Once you make an offer and it is accepted, the house will go into escrow to complete the remaining steps of the home buying process.
Getting a home inspection is the next step in the home buying process, and it is vitally important. An accepted offer does not necessarily mark the final say in the purchase price of the home. A home inspector will check the property for any structural damage or things that need to repaired. You can decide if you'd like to renegotiate or withdraw your offer if damages are found. You may even negotiate to have the seller handle the repairs before the sale is complete. Your realtor® can assist you in this by providing a trusted home inspector.
Not all home loans are created equal. Do you want to have the lowest possible monthly payments? Do you want to have payments that never increase? Are you planning on moving in a few years? These are just a few of the factors to consider when choosing the right loan. There are many competitively priced home loans. It is important to choose that one that best fits your needs and has a desirable interest rate. A good lender can help you determine which loan is right for you.
Your lender will also have a third-party appraiser provide an estimate of your new potential home. This will help you and your agent know you are getting a fair price for your home. If the appraisal comes back much lower than expected, then you can look into the possibility of renegotiating the price to be more fair with the estimate.
Most experienced realtors® will work with your lender to use a trusted title company to handle all of the paperwork – and yes, there is a lot of paperwork. A title company is necessary because the handling of important legal documents comes with countless details that need to be addressed to make sure you are taking rightful ownership of the home.
When it comes time to close on your new home, you will sign all of the necessary paperwork and loan documents. Your realtor® will help you stay well-informed on the funding of your loan, which can take a couple of days to complete. Once your home loan is funded and the check is delivered to the seller, the home is now yours.
Buying a home is a monumental occasion in anyone's life and should be celebrated. It can be a tricky and sometimes long process, but the reward of the perfect home is worth the effort. Thank your realtor® and your lender for their hard work in the process and begin the move into your new home.
At MWT Realty Group, we've been through this process countless times. We understand how important it is to have experience and knowledge of the intricate inner workings of a home purchase. If you are looking to buy or sell your home, then give us a call. We'll make sure you find the perfect home, at the right price, and that you enjoy the process.


Everyone worldwide interested in the energy-agriculture nexus. Participation is free of charge.
Feb. 1 – Mar. 27, 2016 (8 weeks), with a minimum of 3–4 hours a week for reading course materials and collaborative online work.
Participants will be awarded a personalized certificate issued by the PAEGC initiative and TH Köln for continuous contribution the course. The certificate policies will follow soon.
In early 2016, "Powering Agriculture: An Energy Grand Challenge for Development" (PAEGC) launched a free Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) in cooperation with TH Köln – University of Applied Sciences. The 8-week course introduced challenges and solutions for sustainable energy use in the agriculture and food industry. The free course materials and videos are available to all.
May 24, 2017—Powering Agriculture releases reader about sustainable energy solutions in agriculture from its Sustainable Energy for Food MOOC held in 2016.
Around one third of the energy used worldwide goes into the production and processing of food from field to table. Given the current energy system mix, the agrifood industry sector is however heavily dependent on fossil fuel inputs for production, transport, processing and distribution, and contributes significantly to greenhouse gas emissions. With a continuously growing world population the need for food and for energy to produce it is increasing. At the same time millions of farmers and processors in developing countries and emerging economies lack access to clean energy technologies for irrigation, drying, cooling, storage and other processes.
How can these needs be met sustainably?
We have to produce more food with less energy, make energy use more efficient, and introduce and upscale more clean energy technologies.
This MOOC introduced participants to the Energy-Agriculture Nexus and approaches for sustainably providing energy throughout all stages of agricultural value chains. Challenges as well as solutions are analyzed, concrete technologies are examined focusing on their utility to promote access to clean energy. Participants will further be familiarized with relevant external influences such as market conditions, politics, and financing schemes of "powering agricultural" projects. Learning materials, developed by well-known experts, are available as texts as well as videos and are accompanied by assignments that will require the application of the newly learned skills.

Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos bought the Washington Post for $250 million, saying that to chart a future for the iconic newspaper, "we will need to invent, which means we will need to experiment." AllThingsD's co-executive editor Kara Swisher had more than a few thoughts about how to do that, having started her career in the Post's mailroom: "Fusing the old-media storytelling and news-integrity values that I learned at the Post with the Internet values of speed and personality … is critical," she wrote in an open letter to Bezos.

Bacterial microcompartments: their properties and paradoxes.
Cheng S1, Liu Y, Crowley CS, Yeates TO, Bobik TA.
Department of Biochemistry, Biophysics and Molecular Biology, Iowa State University, Ames, IA.
Many bacteria conditionally express proteinaceous organelles referred to here as microcompartments (Fig. 1). These microcompartments are thought to be involved in a least seven different metabolic processes and the number is growing. Microcompartments are very large and structurally sophisticated. They are usually about 100-150 nm in cross section and consist of 10,000-20,000 polypeptides of 10-20 types. Their unifying feature is a solid shell constructed from proteins having bacterial microcompartment (BMC) domains. In the examples that have been studied, the microcompartment shell encases sequentially acting metabolic enzymes that catalyze a reaction sequence having a toxic or volatile intermediate product. It is thought that the shell of the microcompartment confines such intermediates, thereby enhancing metabolic efficiency and/or protecting cytoplasmic components. Mechanistically, however, this creates a paradox. How do microcompartments allow enzyme substrates, products and cofactors to pass while confining metabolic intermediates in the absence of a selectively permeable membrane? We suggest that the answer to this paradox may have broad implications with respect to our understanding of the fundamental properties of biological protein sheets including microcompartment shells, S-layers and viral capsids.
Electron micrograph of bacterial microcompartments: a: The carboxysomes of H. neapolitanus; b: The organelles formed during growth of Salmonella enterica on 1,2-propanediol. Triangles point to the microcompartments.
The bacterial carbon dioxide concentrating mechanism. a: The bacterial CCM starts with transport of inorganic carbon into the cell as HCO3−. Equilibrium between HCO3− and CO2 is not reached due to a lack of carbonic anhydrase in the cytoplasm. HCO3− is converted to CO2 by carboxysomal carbonic anhydrase within the microcompartment lumen. The protein shell of the carboxysome impedes CO2 diffusion. Consequently, CO2 can accumulate in the immediate vicinity of RuBisCO while diffusive loss of CO2 through the cell membrane is minimized. Elevated CO2 proximal to RuBisCO increases carbon fixation and suppresses photorespiration (a nonproductive process in which O2 replaces CO2 as a substrate for RuBisCO). b: A preliminary atomic model of the carboxysome shell based on crystal structures of the component shell proteins.() The positively charged pores through the sheet of hexagonal proteins are indicated. These have been postulated to enhance the diffusion of negatively charged molecules such as bicarbonate (thick arrow) across the shell, compared to uncharged molecules such as CO2 and O2 (thin arrows).
Model for 1,2-propanediol degradation by S. enterica. The dashed line indicates the shell of the microcompartment which is composed of seven BMC-domain proteins (PduABB′JKTU). The first two steps of 1,2-propanediol degradation (conversion of 1,2-propanediol to propionyl-CoA) occur in the lumen of the microcompartment and the remaining steps in the cytoplasm. The proposed function of this microcompartment is sequestration of propionaldehyde to minimize its toxicity. The Ado-B12 cofactor is sometimes converted to B12(III) in a catalytic by-reaction inactivating diol dehydratase. B12(III) is released from diol dehydratase (PduCDE) by a reactivase (PduGH), and reduced to B12(I) by an unknown enzyme. Then, ATP:cob(I)alamin adenosyltransferase (PduO) converts B12(I) to active cofactor (Ado-B12) which associateswith diol dehydratase to form active holoenzyme. Abbreviations: 1,2-PD, 1,2-propanediol; PduCDE, coenzyme B12-dependent diol dehydratase; PduP, propionaldehyde dehydrogenase; PduL, phosphotransacylase; PduW, propionate kinase; PduQ, 1-propanol dehydrogenase.


And what am I happy about you may ask? I'm happy because my little blog got an invite to be on Petitchef (www.petitchef.com) which is a French based cooking recipe portal with several hundred blogs as members already and also accepted into The Foodie Blogroll :-). Foodie Blogroll has thousands of members around the world and is a blogroll just for foodie blogs. I'm so chuffed that my little tiny blog as it is at the moment has been accepted into these two communities. For this rather new and sporadic blogger these two events were enough to put a smile on the dial for sure!
The only problem is that now I will probably find even more recipes to add to my vast collection lol!!!
I have looked at quite a few of the blogs on both sites...they are amazing, and very well maintained. If you ever need a recipe for ANY dish, I am sure you will find inspiration a-plenty at either of these sites! I have placed their widgets in my column on the right if you would like to have a browse.
Oh CONGRATULATIONS are in order...WELL DONE!!
By the way, I made the Anzac cake again this evening and am about to go and ice it. Definitely a winner. Thank you. I posted the recipe on my blog (with acknowledgements) and I know several people have made it and have loved it.


With so many constant sources of distraction, many children have trouble staying focused these days. Whether at school or during extracurricular activities, students are negatively impacted when they cannot concentrate their full attention on the task at hand. Guitar lessons at Fox Music of Virginia Beach are an excellent way to improve your child's attention span and ability to focus. Studying music requires attentiveness. Students recognize that they must listen carefully to the teachers and to their instruments in order to get better. The great thing about guitar lessons is that by improving their attention spans at the studio, this will reinforce our students' ability to pay attention at school. Learning to play guitar and getting better grades in class…benefits all around! Our guitar lessons are very interactive. Fox Music's experienced music teachers do not just lecture to students, but instead ensure that they actively participate throughout each class. We want to help students increase the length of time that they are able to mentally concentrate on an activity, both at Fox Music and in all other areas of their lives. Our teachers keep students engaged during guitar lessons by asking questions, having students perform in front of the class when they feel comfortable, assigning exciting exercises for students to practice, and even physical activities such as teaching frets by using an agility ladder in the classroom! We feel that for students to truly have the desire to focus, they need to learn for themselves the importance of paying attention. This is why guitar lessons are a wonderful method of getting this message across. When your child decides he or she wants to play guitar, they are going to want to see results. Whether their goal is to play their favorite hit radio song on the guitar, or to impress their school friends with their musical abilities, students need to realize that achieving these ambitions won't happen without focus. At Fox Music of Virginia Beach, our students learn that with attention, patience, and concentration, they can succeed at anything.


Ensure your responsive sites and apps are as accessible as possible with this advice from expert Derek Featherstone.
Responsive design and accessibility both embrace the idea of flexibility. But there's more to it than that. Simply implementing responsive design techniques doesn't automatically make your site accessible. Here are four practical tips to help boost accessibility in your responsive designs.
Responsive testing tools, bookmarklets, extensions and testing platforms do a good job of helping test different sizes. They do nothing to help you learn about how your designs work with assistive technology. You need to test with real devices, and preferably with real people.
On a mobile or tablet where there is no physical cursor, the screen reader cursor 'floats' above the screen. Try this: create a note, turn on VoiceOver and flick through so you can see the cursor on some text. Now, rotate your device. Notice the cursor doesn't stay on the object that had focus. Instead, it gets 'lost'. It may find a nearby object, or jump to the top-left of the screen.
This often happens when showing and hiding content, or when you animate a menu and the content slides past the VoiceOver cursor. Often the cause is content that is off-screen but is focused. Be sure to test with real devices to activate menus and other items. If you find that you're losing focus, hide off-screen content fully with display:none rather than just placing it off-screen.
This isn't unique to responsive designs, but it certainly plagues them. Similar to Lost Focus Syndrome, we often see the VoiceOver or TalkBack cursor on a link or other object, but that link is partially obscured or overlapped by some other content. When we activate the link with a double-tap, we end up activating the other piece of content (see sateach.es/mind-the-overlap).
Test your work and look for areas of overlap. If you find activating an item actually activates a different item to the one you intended, modify your CSS so that the items don't overlap, or are hidden with display:none.
With responsive design, we're designing for different viewports and making assumptions about the device based on size. Remember, just because the viewport is 800×600 pixels doesn't mean the user is on a tablet. I've seen people with low vision using a desktop 27-inch screen with 800×600 resolution so they can see it. Take care not to make assumptions about device capabilities or how that person will interact with the site simply based on viewport size.

I'd like to talk about the time I made a complaint to the manager of a restaurant and I was pretty satisfied with the way he handled the whole thing.
And in order to show how sorry he was, he decided to make it up to us. He said, everything we ordered that day was on the house, and he hoped this accident wouldn't stop us from visiting his restaurant in the future. He promised, he would give us a free dish every time we go there.
So I'm pretty satisfied with his attitude and I like the fact that he could take on his responsibility as a manager.
I saw Jack the other day.
Do you feel like eating out tonight?
All of a sudden someone grabbed me around the neck.
Pictures of the burnt corpses turned my stomach.
The smell made my stomach turn over (= made me feel sick).
He suffered from headaches and loss of appetite.
The walk gave me a good appetite.
Don't spoil your appetite by eating between meals.
Send for a doctor, quickly!
-Waiter, there's a spider in my soup, send for the manager!
-It's no good, sir. He's frightened of them, too.
They said, 'Come in, sit down, blah, blah, blah, sign here'.
How can I make up for the way I've treated you?
Have a drink on the house.

You are anxious to put the NIST Cybersecurity Framework into action. You have your core ducks lined up: identify, protect, detect, respond, and recover. You have an idea of your framework tier (risk maturity level), and you have a sketch of a current and future state profile. What next?
You are not alone in adopting a security framework: 80% of respondents in a 2016 Tenable study are using some form of framework. Moreover, this finding is across the board from SMB (100 – 1000 employees) to the enterprise (5000+ employees).
Adopting frameworks is relatively straightforward, implementing them is hard: 95% of the survey respondents indicate significant implementation challenges.
As I wrote in my last post, we need help operationalizing these frameworks, and it starts with the right training. To this end, I have just finished reviewing the first few modules of the upcoming itSM/UMass NIST Cybersecurity Framework Controls Factory ModelTM (CFM) Practitioners course. It is phenomenal!
The power of the NCSF CFM is its flow, flexibility, and extensibility. It succinctly addresses the critical challenges referenced in the above report: organizational, operational, and technological. The essence of the model is reducing the organization's risk by converting unmanaged (high risk) assets into managed (low risk) assets by running them through the factory.
The CFM's simplicity is striking, especially when I compare it to other security operations methodologies that can be overly complicated. For operationalizing the NIST CSF, I am following Occam and focusing on the simplest solution to get the job done.
Technology Center– The technology center covers the technical controls design, build (technology), managed services, testing, and assurance of all controls. This function determines and implements optimal technology solutions to automate the controls and operate the Security Operations Center (SOC).
Business Center– The business center includes the control design related to critical business processes and staff. This function establishes an industry standard cyber risk management program, manages control implementation (via policy), workforce development, executive communications, testing, and the assurance of overall security operations.
The CFM is the heart of an itSM/UMass NCSF workforce development program that teaches individuals and organizations "how to" Engineer, Operate and Manage the Business Governance of a NIST Cybersecurity Framework (NCSF) Program. Each learning track also aligns with the workforce categories outlined in the NICE Cybersecurity Workforce Framework.
If I have piqued your interest, please contact me, and I am happy to discuss the curriculum and provide training samples.
In my next post, I get into some of the core aspects of each CFM function. In particular, I highlight the extensibility of the model as it pulls from a range of standards and frameworks, including NIST, ISO, CIS, and PCI.


World No. 1, Novak Djokovic set up an Australian Open final showdown with great rival, Rafael Nadal after a dominant 6-0 6-2 6-2 victory over Frenchman, Lucas Pouille on Friday night.
Djokovic extends his unbeaten Australian Open semi-final record to 7-0, and will go for a record-breaking seventh title in Melbourne when he plays Nadal on Sunday. The super Serbian is currently tied with Roger Federer and Roy Emerson on six titles.
Sunday's match against Nadal will be a repeat of their epic 2012 final, which Djokovic won after five hours and 53 minutes. His Australian Open progress continues a remarkable transformation of fortunes for the world No. 1. Twelve months ago, he crashed out in the fourth round of the Australian Open, underwent elbow surgery, and was out of the top 20 in May, but a spectacular second half of the season saw him reclaim the world No. 1 ranking, following Grand Slam successes at Wimbledon and the US Open. Now, he stands one win away from winning his third successive Grand Slam title.
Djokovic hadn't had things all his way at this year's Australian Open, as he dropped sets against young guns, Denis Shapovalov and Daniil Medvedev, but he produced by far his best performance of the fortnight on Friday, dismantling Pouille for the loss of just four games. Pouille is not a bad player- he has five tour titles, has been to two Grand Slam quarter finals, has beaten Rafael Nadal and Juan Martin del Potro in Grand Slam matches, and been as high as No. 10 in the world, but Djokovic reduced him to a complete rookie in a performance of ruthless consistency and efficiency. All of his great attributes were firing on Friday night. He struck the ball with surgical length and precision and suffocated Pouille with his trademark defence, all of this without never really appearing to over-exert himself. Pouille just couldn't find any way to hurt him.
Competing in his first Grand Slam semi-final, and taking on Djokovic for the first time in his career, Pouille actually played a decent first game, taking Djokovic to deuce, but once Djokovic got the hold, the world No. 1 turned on the steamroller.
Pouille did well to fend off two break points in his opening service game, finding two big first serves to escape a 15-40 hole, but Djokovic was relentless in his pursuit of the early break, and a stunning forehand that curled onto the line after a draining rally brought up a third break point of the game. It was all too much for Pouille, who cracked with a double fault while going for a big second serve.
With a first serve percentage dropping below 50%, Pouille was always asking for trouble, and he got it with Djokovic- arguably the greatest returner of all time. The Serbian broke again for a 4-0, and then again to complete the bagel- the highlight of that final game being an outrageous inside-in backhand return winner at 15-all.
Pouille finally got on the board in his opening service game of the second set, helped by a couple of delightful drop-shot-forehand pass combination, jolting the crown to life as a result, but the reprieve wouldn't last too long as Djokovic had him under siege again when the Frenchman next stepped up to serve. A missed backhand from Pouille handed Djokovic his first break point of the set, and the world No. 1 bagged the break when his opponent double faulted- while yet again going for a big second serve. The six-time champion broke again in the eighth game to take a two-set lead.
The third set bore a striking resemblance to the second, with Djokovic breaking in the fourth and eight games to complete an absolutely dominant victory.
"It's definitely one of the best matches I ever had on this court," said Djokovic. "Everything worked the way I imagined, and even more so.
The Serbian lost only eight points on serve all match, winning over 80% of points on both his first and second serves, and offering no break points to his opponent. The world No. 1 hit 25 winners and just five unforced errors in the one hour 25-minute demolition job.
If Rafael Nadal's crushing victory over Stefanos Tsitsipas 24 hours earlier was a statement of intent, this was the perfect response from Djokovic. It should be an amazing final on Sunday.
Novak Djokovic put in a masterful performance to dispatch Lucas Pouille, and set up an Australian Open final showdown with Rafael Nadal.

CREDITS: US 3/4 - ECTS 6
This course will introduce students to Italian literature of the twentieth century using the theory of the avant-garde as a critical jumping-off point from which to study the movements within, and the resistances to Italian literary tradition that marked this turbulent historical period. To accentuate the stylistic and formal qualities of avant-garde literature, students will have the chance to choose between two different texts, each of which represents the various movements that we will explore and seek to define. I hope that this will enhance our in-class discussions and provide us with the opportunity to achieve a deeper understanding of the greater complexities of the scope and aims of literary movements in general.

Bloodangel's Cry is an album by German power metal band Krypteria, released in 2007. It peaked at position 55 in the German album charts and at 44 in Switzerland.

Reception

The album received favourable reviews in Germany that marked the opulent style and lead singer Ji-In Cho's classically trained voice. The Sonic Seducer magazine called it a "highlight" after the band's EP Evolution Principle and compared the track "Sweet Revenge" to the style of Meat Loaf. Also Laut.de noted the opulent instrumentation. The Norwegian Metal Express Radio wrote "that while not really original, [it] does enough to stand out from the pack."

War on Hollywood – Latest entertainment gossip | Celebrity breaking news
Kanye West 'Ye' Earns Number One Album Spot After Shocking Slavery Remarks
Maurice Cassidy
It looks like Kanye West came out on top after all, with reports confirming that the rapper's latest album Ye has topped the Billboard Hot 200.
The news comes as a shock to many, particularly since Kanye's own fans had said they would boycott his music after having infamously claimed that he thinks slavery was nothing more but a choice for those who were a part of it.
On top of those lines, Kanye West had also shown his support for Donald Trump which many of his African-American demographic of fans were hurt by, stressing they had "canceled" the father-of-three out of their list of artists to listen to.
Despite the scandalous headlines, Ye managed to sell 208,000 (sales plus streaming) copies and 85,000 in pure sales. Most certainly not his strongest first-week sales but enough to grant him another consecutive number one album on the Billboard Hot 200.
It's believed that Kanye West is planning to announce a world tour very shortly.

Missy Elliott pays tribute to Aaliyah
Kim Ho
On Saturday marked the 17th death anniversary of singer Aaliyah (Aaliyah Dana Haughton).
Rapper Missy Elliott paid tribute to the singer via social media.
The Work It rapper posted a video where a message is being written to Aaliyah on a notepad.
"Aaliyah, we miss you so much. But your legacy will live on forever and ever."
Thereafter, Elliott gave a preview of Aaliyah memorabilia that is placed directly above the written message.
In addition to the video, Elliott tweeted:
"Aaliyah (Babygirl) I can only imagine how great you would be today winning oscars & creating sick music & still setting fashion trends! Your mom & brother @RAD_6 & your fans been holding it down 4 u <3 you will always be A One in A Million sleep peacefully angel Babygirl."

— Missy Elliott (@MissyElliott) August 25, 2018
Throughout Elliott's Instagram @missymisdemeanorelliott, there a number of photographs in reference to Aaliyah.
In June, Elliott shared to her fans a release of Aaliyah inspired cosmetics line with MAC cosmetics.
"#AaliyahForMAC this is so Beautiful big up to her fans who worked so diligently to get signatures to make this happen they never gave up even when people said it won't happen they fought hard for Babygirl & with the guidance of Aaliyah's brother @radmax6 who worked hard too! years later her impact still LIVES ON????"
At the age of 12, Aaliyah scored two record deals – Jive Records and Blackground Records. Her first debut album in 1994 Age Ain't Nothing but a Number was recorded when she was 14 years old – which sold nearly 74,000 copies within the first week of release.
The singer performed at the 1998 Academy Awards at aged 19, making her the youngest woman ever to perform at the Oscars.
In 1999, Romeo Must Die was the first major movie Aaliyah starred in. She also took on the role of executive producer for the movie's soundtrack – which includes hit single Try Again.
Aaliyah passed away in the Bahamas on August 25, 2001 at the age of 22. The singer was in the Bahamas shooting a music video for Rock the Boat.
The filming wrapped up a day earlier than expected. The singer and her team members boarded on a flight back to the U.S which crashed shortly after takeoff. Tragically, there were no survivors from the accident.
What To Expect From Ariana Grande's "Sweetener"
Sophie Nicole
Ariana Grande has released ''Sweetener" merchandise
The rumors are true- Ariana Grande is set to release "Sweetener" on August 17th. After releasing the music video for "God is a Woman," in which she, in her own words, "fingered the earth," her fans are anxiously waiting to see what ideas she's going to touch upon next.
The official release date is three days from now, and Grande does not let us forget how excited she is by posting about it approximately 10000 times a day on Twitter. Her fans, however, just want this album to drop so they can see for themselves what the hype is all about. This Tweet sums up the relationship between Ari and her fan base nicely:
i love you https://t.co/b6V0An8kMG
— Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) August 12, 2018
This will be her fourth album, and presumably the second one in which she won't be sleeping on the cover. So what can we expect? For one thing, she already released the tracklist, which includes the following songs: R.E.M., God is a Woman, Sweetener, Successful, Everytime, Breathin, Everytime, No Tears Left to Cry, and Borderline. Ever since the release of her last album, Dangerous Woman, she has been working on making her image more mature and sexual. Her haters often make fun of her young-looking appearance, saying that the 25-year-old looks 12. I personally don't know any 12 year olds who wear BDSM-inspired latex outfits, but these days, who knows anymore?
Grande has been criticized a lot recently for her engagement to Pete Davidson, which happened shortly after her breakup with Mac Miller. Instagram 'stans' were thoroughly convinced that Grande cheated and were quick to spam Ari's and her new flames accounts with their conspiracy theories. This chaos has apparently affected Pete the most, as he is used to hiding from the spotlight. But no hoodie was big enough to shield him from the controversy, and he swiftly deleted his account, as he "has been getting a lot of hate from fans. It's been hurtful, and he's actually pretty sensitive." It would not be surprising if Pete were more excited about the album release than Ari at this point, just so he can fade out of the spotlight for a moment.
Whitney Houston's family "horrified" over sexual claims
Whitney Houston's family are shocked by sexual allegations documented in the new Whitney film.
Director Kevin Macdonald interviewed close family and friends to the late singer, exposing both Whitney Houston and her half brother, Gary Garland, were allegedly molested by their cousin, Dee Dee Warwick, during their childhood.
Whitney Houston's mother, Cissy Houston, released a joint statement with niece Dionne Warwick to People, highlighting that the family first heard of such claims two days prior to the film's release back in May at the Cannes Film Festival.
The statement revealed: "We cannot overstate the shock and horror we feel and the difficulty we have believing that my niece Dee Dee Warwick… molested two of my three children".
"… The idea that [Dee Dee] would have molested my children is overwhelming and for us unfathomable… Neither I, Dionne, nor my son Michael… has ever heard these allegations; we have never heard anything remotely connected to the crimes charged against Dee Dee in the film. How can that be fair to my daughter, to Dee Dee, or to our family?"
Despite having to live most of her life in the public eye, Cissy Houston defends her daughter stating the public has no right to "know every intimate detail of her life beyond what she herself revealed during her lifetime… if she was molested I do not believe she would have wanted it to be revealed for the first time to thousands, maybe millions of people in a film."
Cissy Houston with daughter Whitney Houston
Whitney director Macdonald, 50, revealed to Vanity Fair in May that he "managed to persuade Mary Jones, who was Whitney's longtime assistant and probably knew her in her last years more than anybody," to open up about the molestation claims, as featured in the documentary.
"She talks about what Whitney felt and what effect it had on her. So we changed the whole cut at the very last minute. It was kind of a detective story to get that piece of information, which changed how I felt about Whitney and how I felt about the story".
People magazine reported revealing the information was a difficult decision for Mary Jones, "she confided in me and I struggled tremendously deciding whether to share this secret or keep to myself".
Jones goes on further to say, "I deeply love and respect Dionne, Cissy and their entire families, and my intention was never to embarrass anyone in the family, but rather to bring to light that Whitney was subjected to something painful and troubling as a child. And it's something that happens to other innocent kids and goes unspoken too much… I decided to share the story so that people might understand that throughout her entire life Whitney carried this with her, and the weight of it was immense. Whitney was a wonderful woman, an angel, and she did not drag herself down all alone — there was a cause."
Before the film debut, director Macdonald revealed on Good Morning America that Gary Houston "was molested when he was a kid by a woman in the family and he thought also Whitney had been as well."
In Whitney, Gary Houston, 60, alleges Dee Dee Warwick molested him when he was 7 to 9 years old. He had no prior knowledge of Whitney's alleged abuse leading up to the film's release.
Gary further revealed in an interview on Good Morning America, "I was 8 [or] 9 years old and I was being fondled with from time to time. It was a situation I didn't understand. I knew it was abnormal."
Cissy Houston and Dionne Warwick concluded their joint statement: "After people have seen the film they will draw their own conclusions and we are not trying to change that. We just want people to know there is another side. While the filmmakers certainly had the legal right to make this film, I wonder at the moral right."
No charges were ever filed against Dee Dee Warwick.
Dee Dee Warwick passed away in 2008. The Grammy-nominated soul singer sang backup vocals for stars including Aretha Franklin. Dee Dee Warwick is the sister of Dionne Warwick, and both are nieces of Cissy Houston, Whitney's mother.
Whitney Houston, who was 18 years younger than Dee Dee Warwick, died in February 2012 at the Beverly Hilton Hotel from drowning and the effects of atherosclerotic heart disease and cocaine use.
Whitney is now out in theatres.

In the 12th century, different fume removal devices were widely used in European countries. Of course design was more primitive. Industrial stacks were invented only after several centuries - at the end of the 18th century. However, smoke stack designation has remained unchanged.
Without combustion products removal it is impossible to properly operate a liquid, gas or solid powered boilers or modular boiler houses. Another issue is that we need to use different types of smoke-removing equipment for diversion of products of various fuels from different boiler houses.
Specialists of designing objects of the heating system distinguish several basic technical types of industrial smoke stacks.
- is the most wide spread types. This is a single stack structure usually made from metal. Their height can be up to 30 meters. At the same time, this type fume removal equipment can remove combustion products from one and several (usually not more than five) flues from different facilities.
- differ from described above one not only with one more word but in meaning. First, except for a stack there is a structural panel in this type of a flue - a truss column. Secondly, due to supporting column, the height of the truss stack can be up to 50 meters, and the diameter of the flues is up to one and a half. Productivity of this type of flue is higher than self-supporting stacks.
– is perfect for installation in small areas or in objects located in the urban area. This type is a free-standing building structure with pretty aesthetic look, which is an undoubted advantage for some objects of urban infrastructure.
If we talk about economical options the undoubted leader is facade pipes. Significant savings of the budget and the building area is possible due to the fact that this type of stack is fixed on a building façade. That is why there is no need to install supporting structures and pour foundation.
Wall mounting flue pipes are attached on the walls. At the same time they can be located not only outside the building (like facade), but also inside if it is necessary for the project or due to structural features of a building.
It is worth noting that for each individual project of a fume removal system is designed separately - taking into account the specific features of the object. Therefore, the only true solution will be to contact specialists of "KSM" LLP.

Because we believe so much in the quality of our workmanship and our product, we believe a strawbale guarantee is essential for all homes.
You are covered for 6 years warranty for any structural defects in your home.
Only a licensed builder who builds your whole home can give you this guarantee.
Some people are unsure whether environmental homes are just as good as traditional homes…. our strawbale guarantee ensures that they are.
We asked ourselves, what guarantee would we want if we were building our own natural earth home. This is it.
We are licensed builders (Viva Eco Homes Pty Ltd), Sam Vivers is a licensed Supervisor having achieved his Carpentry Licence. We have qualified carpenters and renderers, plasterers, plumbers and sparkies on our team.
As a licensed builder, this automatically means that our licence ensures we can build straw bale walls and any other part of the house we want to. We're not limited to any one part as is the case with some strawbale tradies. Some tradies or builders can't even get home warranty cover. They're not able to do anything else, even designing a home.
We are licensed to build in NSW, ACT and QLD. For more info go to the Department of Fair Trading.
Our quality assurance procedures ensure that we get consistent results that work. Our systems and procedures include current Australian standards for quality, environment and the safety of our workers.
We're members of the Master Builder's Association (MBA), Australasian Strawbale Building Assoc (Ausbale) and the Earth Building Association of Australia (EBAA). That means we have quality standards that we live up to. We strive to have standards for strawbale building to make it a viable building method in the conventional world.

You are now probably wondering where I am going with this blog post, well this is about people and mental health!
In todays modern society many of us often find ourselves living and working in silos, we go to work or are at home all day with the kids, not interacting with anybody outside our little bubble, be it our neighbours, friends or our extended family!
Even those of us that work can still be in these silos, I for example am based from home, although I am often travelling around visiting clients or speaking to them on the phone, but internally I can go a couple of weeks without seeing a colleague, most conversations are done over email or over the phone.
Don't get me wrong I love technology, twitter has made the world that little bit smaller, making it very easy to keep in touch with friends and family living abroad. I however will be the first to admit that I spend to much time texting, tweeting or what sapping somebody and not making time to sit down with somebody and have a good old chinwag! (face to face chat for those of you that don't use that slang).
Over the last year it has become apparent to me that a number of close relatives and friends have suffered with depression, stress or anxiety. When I see a friend or loved one struggling, sitting down with them and letting them know that they have someone to talk to has helped both of us.
It is scary seeing somebody you love or who is very close to you, admitting that they are struggling and fighting their own demons and feeling like they are all alone and you were none the wiser.
If somebody close to you was ill physically you would be able to see it and offer a helping hand, but with mental health it usually isn't that obvious until the situation becomes very serious. It was good to see that my cousin who has been struggling with a mental health issue, recently post on Facebook very openly that he had been struggling, I know it took a lot of strength for him to admit he wasn't coping and reach out for help from professionals. I am pleased to say that he is coming out the other side, but many a night before this, he has spent time talking to me about what he is going through and it was comforting to know that he felt he could open up to me.
Even at a recent blogging event it surprised me to see a number of bloggers posting that they found the whole even slightly overwhelming due to anxiety or another fear, also a little sad that I didn't spot these people, I will keep an eye out next time!
I guess I am putting this post out there to encourage more of us to have those face to face conversations with friends, family and loved ones, and look out for signs of people going into their little silos and being to afraid to ask for help.
If anyone is reading this and can relate to that feeling of being isolated please don't suffer in silence, get in contact I would be more than happy to help out in anyway possible!
I know this sounds cheesy but remember that the samaritans charity offer great support to many people, they have a page on their site about how they have helped people if you are not sure if you are suffering from a mental health issue, the scariest step is sometimes realising that you need help, and then asking for it!


Solgar's Astaxanthin is a high-performance carotenoid harvested from microalgae grown off the Hawaiian coast. This microalgae provides the most concentrated source of Astaxanthin known, delivering 10,000 - 40,000 mg/kg. Astaxanthin is one of the most versatile natural antioxidants in the body. Highly potent in its own right, it may also maximize the body's use of carotenoids and vitamin E.
Warnings: If you are pregnant, nursing, taking any medication or have a medical condition, please contact your healthcare practitioner before taking any dietary supplement. Not intended for use by children.
Notes: Laboratory studies reveal that Astaxanthin is more effective than vitamins A and E and traditional carotenoids like lutein and beta-carotene in scavenging damaging oxidants. In one in vitro study, the effective dose of Astaxanthin was 100 times lower than that of vitamin E and beta-carotene. The unique structure of Astaxanthin allows it to exist in both lipid and aqueous environments. As a result, Astaxanthin is a far-reaching antioxidant, active in all parts of the body. In addition to its high potency as an antioxidant, Astaxanthin may help the body maximize its use of other antioxidants, prolonging the functional life of vitamin E, beta-carotene, lycopene and glutathione by switching them back "on" after they�ve become spent. Research shows that Astaxanthin may also enhance the skin�s natural protection by acting like vitamin A, which accumulates in the skin and decreases the production of free radicals, which can lead to tissue and DNA damage.
Solgar's Astaxanthin Complex softgels are free of corn, yeast, wheat and dairy products and are formulated without the use of preservatives, artificial flavors or colors.
Recommended Use: As an dietary supplement for adults, take one ( 1 ) softgel daily, preferably at mealtime, or as directed by a healthcare practitioner.
The customer reviews posted below are based on individual consumer experiences and may NOT necessarily represent what expected results will be from using or taking Solgar Astaxanthin - 5 mg - 60 Softgels. These results may not be typical and you should not necessarily expect to receive the same results. Actual results may vary.
Excellent product. It has improved my quality of life. They eased my pain. I'll buy again as soon as I can!
Having been to UCI Irvine, I was told to prepare for diminishing eyesight. Reading is my passion and I noticed that it was getting harder to keep the printed lines straight. Night driving was scary, the oncoming lights blinded me, I read the reviews on Astaxanthin and used one bottle, not really sure if it would help. Well last night I had to drive From Sun City to Chino, Friday eve. traffic, and I COULD SEE! I told the wife, "I can see the lines on the pavement". I just couldn't believe I could see against all that outbound traffic. Needless to say I am ordering more! For me this is a MUST HAVE product. My father is 92 and has perfect eyesight, My hope, with Astaxathin, is to see untill at least 98 yrs. (or more) Only 65 now. Thanks so much.

Newsletter No. 56 - September 2021
PLEASE NOTE THAT DUE TO COVID RESTRICTIONS, THE NEXT GENERAL MEETING WILL BE HELD BY ZOOM AT 10.30AM ON WEDNESDAY 22nd SEPTEMBER
President's Report - September
Another month has passed and I have to admit that I do not have a lot to report. I did attend a Probus District Two meeting (via Zoom) which was conducted by Probus South Pacific (PSPL). There were about 44 attendees from around 34 different clubs in the Hills and surrounding districts. I have now tuned in to a couple of these meetings, and I have to admit that our club is a lot more advanced in our communications and activities than a lot of the other clubs. Most of them appear to be having difficulty attracting new members and keeping in contact with their member base. I think we are very fortunate to be fully electronic and to have an energetic bunch of members and Activity Leaders. PSPL do seem to be working very hard to support and assist clubs in these difficult times.
I believe that we may have an opportunity to get together again this year. I am confident we will meet face to face for our November meeting. You should also put Wednesday 15th December in your diary as the planned date for our Christmas Party.
Enio has already placed a tentative booking with The Madison Function Centre, the same venue that provided a successful event last year.
Other than that, get vaccinated and continue to follow the guidelines. NSW seems to be doing a great job in getting us to that 80/70 milestone and thereby allowing us to get together again.
Bob Carritt President
Ian Roberts - Treasurer
Our membership is currently full, at the agreed maximum of 110.
Welfare Report September 2021
Well we are slowly moving towards the time when we can meet together again.
I know that some of you have been getting together in groups of 5 in the park for some much needed socialising. It's not until you are able to experience this that you realise how much you have missed this contact!
Congratulations to Andrew and Desley's daughter Rosemary who competed in the shotput at the Para Olympics in Japan. It was very exciting to watch someone who we knew to compete.
Since lockdown a couple of families have had additions to the family of the furry kind! Bob and Wendy Carritt now have a whippet called Bowie. [Coincidently, Bowie's brother found a home with Santo and Sue Calabrese's daughter Sarah and her partner]. Terry and Jan Ridge's daughter and granddaughter who are living with them now have a cavoodle called Louie. Julie and Bain Shenstone got 2 bundles of joy earlier in the year. They are Labradors [Atlas and Minerva, known as Minnie] and are keeping the family very busy. I know all these families are thoroughly enjoying the companionship that these additions have made to their families while we have been in lockdown.
While out walking I have run into a number of members and caught up on their news. It's great to be out in the sunshine and out of the house.
Keeping in contact with your friends and family and club members helps to keep us still connected and looking out for each other.
Let myself or Terry Ridge know if there is anyone you think we should make contact with.
See you on Zoom.

Cathy Turner & Terry Ridge – Welfare Officers
September Meeting Speakers - Rob & Rosemary Clarke - Our trip and Photos of interest: South Georgia & Antarctic
Rosemary and Rob have been keen travellers from a young age. Shortly after we were married, Rob won a scholarship to study in Michigan in the United States, at every opportunity we packed up our rusted old Datsun and travelled through as many states as we could. When leaving the United States, we came home through Europe for four months travelling in a campervan.
When the children came along our travel experiences evaporated except for the camping trips and other local travel as the kids grew. When Rosemary's bother died at the very young age of fifty-nine, we realised that we should make the most of our time. For the past 20 years we have travelled extensively throughout the world, we prefer small group adventure tours to remote places off the tourist track. Antarctica was always on the bucket list and completed our seven continents. Rob being a keen photographer wanted to travel with National Geographic to gain some photographic insights. Our ship had 150 passengers and the 21-day voyage took us to the Falkland Islands, the Island of South Georgia, and the Antarctic peninsula in November / December 2019 just before lockdown.
