Stepping away from the blatantly political for a time has already proven healthy. This morning, an aphorism entered my brain which, in turn, inspired a whole lot of thinking.
Some people demand absolute perfection of all others, but possess no desire for self-improvement.
I'm sure someone else has said similar at some point in time, but nonetheless the thought was inspiring for its completeness. When discussing politics with most people, exceptions are often brought to the table as if they somehow disprove the original assertion. For instance, one might say that a free market solution to healthcare is wrong, because one individual in certain extenuating circumstances might receive inferior care. The imperfection is then championed, weaponized empathy is applied to it, and soon the media talking heads ponder why Republicans want to push granny off a cliff.
Forget the political side of this for a moment and focus on what the real underlying message is. This is imperfect, says the academic, and since it is imperfect it must be discarded.
This same brand of thinking is what leads to excessive legal wrangling over minute issues of grammar. Second amendment opponents will drive themselves into conniption fits over the position of a comma. The point, the spirit of the law, sails right over their heads. They are consumed by a search for perfection, for an absolute set of principles that governs all human interaction without the slightest deviation.
In other words, they demand perfection from all others, while celebrating their own victimhood and eschewing self-improvement.
Those of us with a modicum of sense have long made peace with the fact that anything involving humans is going to lack perfection. The presence of perfection in anything short of the divine is, in fact, prima facie evidence of error. It cannot be perfect, thus either someone is mistaken, or is deceiving you. Demands for perfection should be scoffed at. One may as well demand flying pink unicorns, for all the good it will do.
With humans, however, it does not work this way. And this is a key problem with the way academics are prone to thinking. If a counter-example is found to disfavored public policy, wrongthink, or politically incorrect thought, that example is deemed sufficient to disprove the theory. If one person suffers because, say, Obamacare is repealed, then it is proof that Obamacare was good, and free market healthcare is bad.
I feel like I'm stating the obvious here, but humans are not feathers and hammers. Conduct your experiment with another set of humans, and you may get an entirely different set of results. These people are committing a category error long before their favored political positions are even properly formed.
The thing to note about folks who think this way is that they rarely reflect inward. They are quick to criticize the imperfections of others, but are loathe to look at themselves under a similar microscope. This is how you can get folks who complain about greedy capitalists, and yet are caught with their hands in the cookie jar, stealing money for themselves. You would think that someone obsessed with perfection would start with himself, but alas, it is rarely so.
Human perfection is impossible, short of divine intervention. And whatever else academics might believe, they are certainly not gods. Hell, even the Greek gods had less personal problems than they do.
You're absolutely right. And it's an old old argument. Angels, devils, and humans. Who's who. Which should govern, which should be governed, and which group should decide the past questions.
I see his body of 'thought' as filled with logical contradictions as well as being highly artificial, as it is based on quite a few easily disprovable assumptions. I'm left with the impression that his ideas served as the formative basis of marxism, culminating in the idea that all of human affairs can be 'scientifically' shaped by 'wiser' minds.
That seems to be a fundamental problem with the Progressives – they assume it is THEY who are the 'wiser minds', and therefore have the moral and intellectual agency to decide everything for everybody while being also above criticism.


Financial data fuels (or should fuel) critical business initiatives, but at many companies, financial management systems make it difficult to surface, analyze, secure or even validate data. What's getting in the way? In this eWEEK slide show, Betsy Bland, vice president of financial management products at Workday, describes seven key roadblocks that are keeping companies from most effectively using the power of financial data. Bland is responsible for financial management product strategy and product management.
In many companies, finance pros must work across multiple systems for accounting, reporting and planning. Collating that information often requires that a request be made to IT to create a data warehouse, a process that is time-consuming, expensive and error-prone. By the time finance pros get access to the data, it is very likely outdated or worse, incorrect. Looking at things from a slightly higher perspective, financial information itself is often isolated from other, relevant data stores (such as HR) and from the people who could benefit from access to it.
It is not uncommon for organizations to maintain multiple copies of financial data to support both the processing and analysis of that data. In this model, transactional information is described in a particular on-disk representation that optimizes for high volumes of OLTP (online transaction processing). To run analytics on transactional data, it has to be extracted and batch uploaded into a different on-disk format so the right analytic questions can then be asked of that data, or OLAP (online analytical processing). This migration from transactional to analytical formats can be costly and complex.
When companies grow and move into new markets, they need to make modifications or harmonization to core business processes. This is a good problem to have, but a problem nonetheless. Companies need a way to effectively develop and continuously adapt workflows so they accurately reflect the current roles and processes. This requires a close, and ongoing, collaboration between business and IT.
On-premises systems are getting harder to manage and maintain. Yes, companies can run financial software on premises, but is that where it can be run most efficiently and effectively? As companies grow and change, so do data storage, processing and analysis needs. However, many companies do not have the resources—be it hardware, software, time or skill sets—needed to scale accordingly.
When it comes to data—especially sensitive financial data—companies have a big challenge: providing the right access to the right people, while ensuring data security and privacy and protecting against data loss. It's critical to ensure that any system you use can authenticate against existing data stores while enabling smooth, efficient and secure single-sign on.
Even when companies do decide to update their financial management platforms, they don't take full advantage. Most organizations have myriad methods of reporting financial information, including an array of spreadsheets living outside their core financial systems of record. Even when new systems with robust reporting capabilities are put into place, it's common for organizations to try to re-engineer their old reports for the new system. At best, companies are leaving functionality on the table; at worst, they may be compromising the integrity of data.
Evolving market conditions, regulation, growth and many other factors are forcing organizations to be more agile. If you don't have a flexible system that can quickly adapt to changes and provide the insights you need at your fingertips, then you're at a disadvantage from a financial decision-making perspective. Finance teams are also looking to empower other business leaders with access to real-time finance data and insights that help them react at the speed of business. With greater insight into current performance, leaders are able to continuously strategize and course correct when needed.

Uponor's biannual convention in Las Vegas continues to be a major draw for the industry and the Apple Valley, Minnesota, manufacturer. Uponor notes the early returns show more than 1,200 attendees took part in the April 4-6 event at the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas.
The convention kicked off with an opening session led by John Sweeney, the event's master of ceremonies. Sweeney is the owner of the Brave New Workshop, a comedy theater and educational workshop in Minneapolis. Sweeney got the crowd in the mood for fun with some timely jokes tied to the industry.
Bill Gray, Uponor's president of North America operations, took the stage next to outline the company's vision for the show and the future.

"We want to focus on you, the customer, so you have the best experience possible," he said. "We want to become your preferred partner for the long term."
The rest of the day-one opening session included a comedy and juggling routine by Jon Wee and Owen Morse of The Passing Zone that included pins, knifes and even a chainsaw.
The first day wrapped up with a three-hour cocktail session in the Product Showcase area. Uponor showcased its residential and commercial offerings, its new Phyn Plus system for residential water damage and savings. Other manufacturer booths included Taco Comfort Solutions, Navien, Grundfos, Milwaukee Tool and Rinnai.
Day 2 was kick-started with a breakfast spread that included pastries, cereal, croissants, juice and more. Once fed, the packed room of attendees listened intently to Jack Uldrich's keynote address. Uldrich, an acclaimed futurist, speaker and author, implored Uponor Convention attendees to pay attention to how quickly the world is moving.
"The amount of change we are going to see in the next five to 10 years will be outstanding," he stated. Uldrich included a recent information graphic showing that recently the amount of people using Netflix was more than regular cable television — the first time that's happened in history.
Uldrich also noted how millennials have shifted the consumer landscape greatly and the U.S. is trending to a more "access" economy.
"Millennials trade ownership for access," he says.
Finally, Uldrich said it would be wise for the attendees to get "reverse mentors."
"Find someone younger than you to help," he said. "They see your world from a different perspective."
After the keynote, the second day of the convention included 19 breakout sessions ranging in topics from Revit and 3D modeling, smart homes, high-performance radiant systems and more.
The event concluded with addresses from Uponor CEO Jyri Luomakoski, Vice President of Sales Brent Noonan, and a passionate poem from Uponor's Ingrid Mattsson.
"Progress is helping us and the industry move forward," Noonan stated. "Our people are our competitive advantage."

Famous Musicians Who Went Completely Broke
The stories of celebrities going broke after earning fortunes are rampant in the entertainment industry. The filthy rich lifestyle and the sudden massive fame have tested many and numerous celebrities failed in maintaining their riches.
There have also been several famous musicians that dropped from the heights of glory into the pits of bankruptcy. In this article today, we are going to list a few hugely successful musicians that became broke after getting exceptionally rich through their careers.
The soulful singer behind the hit song, 'I Heard It Through the Grapevine', Marvin Gaye faced some significant ups and downs in his music career. With a massive success of his album 'What's Going On', Marvin Gaye became a box office hit and produced successful tracks and albums one after the other.
However, unlike his music career, Gaye's love life didn't see much success. He was hit with a divorce case by his wife Anna Gordy, daughter of Motown owner Berry Gordy, after being accused of having an extra-marital affair. He was known to have two children from the affair.
He had to go through a divorce settlement soon after which Gaye filed for bankruptcy. He had little to no money for the divorce settlement. He was in financial distress and could not pay the alimony and child support expenses.
Even though he had an amazing and fruitful music career, his bank account was washed-out due to his unnecessarily lavish lifestyle. Consequentially, Anna agreed to settle with $600,000 in future royalties from his upcoming album. However, the album was a box office disaster and failed to bag any success at all. It is known that Gaye's financial problems were also because of his drug and other substance addictions.
Marvin Gaye was tragically shot dead by his own father after a heated debate, on the afternoon of 1st April 1984.
Stanley Kirk Burrell, famously known as MC Hammer, is recognized as the first mainstream rapper of the industry. With his hit song 'U Can't Touch This', Hammer created massive success in the year 1990. His album 'Please Hammer Don't Hurt E'm' also became a huge hit with sales of over ten million. It was this time when Hammer was known to be earning around $33 million each year. However, just like his earnings, his spending was also immensely huge.
Hammer was known to own a mansion with gold plated gates which had a worth of $30 million. The house had Italian marble flooring, a massive recording studio, a spacious garage that could park 20 cars, multiple tennis courts, two swimming pools, and many such lavish amenities. He also owned a stable that had a total of 19 horses with each valuing around $19 million. Hammer was known to also own two helicopters, a private jet, a limousine, and a Lamborghini for his use.
With all this extravagant spending, Hammer found himself burdened by a debt of $13.7 million. His fame didn't stay with him for long, and before he knew it the only assets, he was left with amounted to only $9.6 million; clearly not enough to finance his debt payments.
Consequentially, Hammer had to file for bankruptcy in 1996. He owed the Internal Revenue Service an amount of $100,000, half a million dollars to Deion Sanders of the Dallas Cowboys and half a million in legal charges. He also had some lawsuits filed against him accusing him of copying an iconic track in his hit song 'U Can't Touch This.'
It might be surprising for many, but yes, Michael Jackson, the moonwalk star had to deal with bankruptcy. Even though he never officially filed for bankruptcy, sources have confirmed that with his unexpected demise, Jackson, left behind a massive debt of somewhere between $400 to $500 million.
Jackson made a fortune through his music career and a fruitful move to take-over ATV Music, the label that had the rights to several popular Beatles songs. The acquisition added up to Jackson's wealth and helped him make millions in royalties.
However, Michael Jackson was known to be habitual of an extravagant lifestyle. Even though he earned millions through his songs and albums, Jackson soon became indebted. He carelessly spent all the wealth he accumulated through the success of his record labels. He was known to regularly borrow money from his friends to finance his lavish lifestyle. This was later realized to be a habit Jackson had developed.
Michael Jackson also had several child molestation cases filed against him. Because of this added with his disturbing borrowing habits and an irrational cashflow management, Jackson was under a massive debt when he left the world on June 25th, 2009.
Toni Braxton's single 'Un-break My Heart' became a massive success during 1996. However, despite selling 25 million albums worldwide, Braxton could only make $1,265 in royalties due to contract complications. It was in 1998 that Braxton first filed for bankruptcy.
Having huge credit card bills amounting to $20,000 and monthly living expenses around $43,000, Tony Braxton could not keep up in terms of earning money. However, fighting her way out of the financial distress, Braxton released a new album 'The Heat.' Just when things started looking good for her in terms of her musical career, Braxton was diagnosed with serious health problems. In April 2008, she was hospitalized for severe chest pains. As a result of her grave health condition, Braxton had to cancel her concerts and shows.
The cancellation pushed her into debts amounting to millions of dollars. Consequentially, in October 2010, Tony Braxton had to file for bankruptcy for the second time in her career.
Singer, songwriter, and musician, David Crosby is known to be the founding member of two of the famous 60s band: 'The Byrds' and 'Crosby, Stills, and Nash.' Crosby along with the group became a massive hit, however, soon the group broke apart with each singer moving on to make their solo careers in music. Crosby wrote many iconic singles such as 'Long Time Gone', Eight Miles High' and 'Wooden Ships.' Much of his career during the 70s and 80s was spent writing and composing songs. However, this was also the time when Crosby got addicted to cocaine and heroin. As a result of his addictions, Crosby's behavior became out of control and he got involved in various felonies.
Crosby was arrested for hit-and-run driving; illegal ownership of concealed firearm and possession of drugs. He admitted that his addiction to drugs made him unwisely spend millionsof dollars. All this negatively affected Crosby's singing career with him eventually filing for bankruptcy.
Originally named as Marvin Lee Aday, Meat Loaf and his album 'Bat Out of Hell' gained a massive success during 1977. The album became a classic and shared ranking with other iconic albums of music history such as Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon. The singer also produced many successful songs as 'Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad' and 'Paradise by the Dashboard Light'.
During the making of his second album, Meat lost his voice and could not continue with the recording until 1981. However, it got too late as much of his fame had already died down. His next album, Dead Ringer, could not gain much popularity and had very few sales. By 1963, Meat Loaf was in $1.6 million in liability which resulted in him filing for bankruptcy.
However, 1993 saw the rise of Meat Loaf's popularity. His album 'Bat Out of Hell II: Back into Hell' was ranked as number one.
As a result of frivolous spending, many celebrities ended up being broke even after earning millions through their music careers. Poor cash management, lavish lifestyles, and substance addictions have been the reason behind many musician's steep fall from glory.

In modern poetry the strophe usually becomes identical with the stanza, and it is the arrangement and the recurrence of the rhymes which give it its character.
But it was the Greek ode-writers who introduced the practice of strophe-writing on a large scale, and the art was attributed to Stesichorus, although it is probable that earlier poets were acquainted with it.
The briefest and the most ancient strophe is the dactylic distich, which consists of two verses of the same class of rhythm, the second producing a melodic counterpart to the first.
Strophe (Greek, "to turn"), a term in versification which properlymeans a turn, as from one foot to another, or from one side of a chorus to the other.
In modernpoetry the strophe usually becomes identical with the stanza, and it is the arrangementand the recurrence of the rhymes which give it its character.
The arrangement of an ode in a splendid and consistent artifice of strophe, antistrophe and epode was carried to its height by Pindar.
general sense the strophe is a collection of various prosodical periods combined into a structural unit.
Archilochus first created the strophe by binding together systems of two or three lines.
Strophe (Greek, "to turn") is a term in versification which properly means a turn, as from one foot to another, or from one side of a chorus to the other.
In its precise choral significance a strophe was a definite section in the structure of an ode, when, as in Milton's famous phrase in the preface to Samson Agonistes, "strophe, antistrophe and epode were a kind of stanzas framed only for the music."
In a more general sense, the strophe is a pair of stanzas of alternating form on which the structure of a given poem is based.
Since the strophes split from a common spine, all strophic data necessarily begin by sharing the same data type.
However, when using the strophe command to select more than one strophe for output, it is essential that the input first be expanded to a through-composed version, via the thru command.
If the strophe command is invoked without any option, then all strophes are expanded in the output in numerical order beginning with strophe 1.
A strophe is also the part of the ode that the chorus chants as it moves from right to left across the stage.
The forms in modern English verse which reproduce most exactly the impression aimed at by the ancient odestrophe are the elaborate rhymed stanzas of such poems as Keats' Ode to a Nightingale or Matthew Arnold's The Scholar-Gipsy.
The terms "strophe", "antistrophe", and "epode", used in Svarlien's translations of Pindar, are fairly technical.
"Strophe" and "antistrophe" are ways of referring to the metrical or rhythmical pattern of a text which was originally sung.
As already stated, the significance of "strophe" and "antistrophe" was, as in a modern song, mainly a matter of musical accompaniment.
For example, last year Strophe used existing marketing materials available to Microsoft partners to launch a campaign that has led to three-quarters of a million dollars of new opportunity in the sales pipeline.
As a Microsoft partner, Strophe was able to choose from a variety of technical support options to ensure a service level that met its specific needs.
Founded in 1992, Strophe has made it its mission to build world-class business solutions for its diverse clientele, specializing in software implementation, training, and technical support using Microsoft technologies.
With distinct consciousness of its symbolic signification, the greater mill is mentioned in a strophe by the skald Snæbjörn (Skáldskaparmál 33).
The strophe appears to have belonged to a poem describing a voyage.
The strophe says that the mill is in motion out on the edge of the earth, that nine giant-maids turn it (for the lesser Grotti-mill two were more than sufficient), that they had long ground with it, that it belongs to a skerry very dangerous to seafaring men, and that it produces a peculiar grist.
A strophe is generally composed of equal verses, but it sometimes happens that the first of the last verse is in a different measure from the other verses of the strophe.
There may be two or more successive strophes beginning with the same letter, each letter regularly marking the same number of strophes throughout the poem which thus consists of forty-four strophes, of sixty-six, or of any other multiple of twenty-two.
The segments of the mazurkas where the "dramatic peaks" arise, are foreshadowed by a gradual increase in irregularities in strophic structure due to the expansion of the phrases, elisions, etc. Thus, in the Mazurka in F minor, Op.
The disturbances in the rhythm of the strophes and phrases, caused by either halting or delaying harmonic progressions might be considered musical analogies to the literary technique of retardation, which relies upon introducing delays in epic development.
In order to mask the caesuras between the strophes the superimposition of themes is also used: in this process, motifs from a theme that is to be developed in a subsequent strophe appear already in the preceding strophe, thus anticipating the direction of the development of the music.
The second strophe and epode, containing the words spoken by the priest Kalchas, are mostly recited by a single actor, interrupted a few times by lines spoken by the whole group (these are lines in which a god or goddess is mentioned).
The last line of strophe, antistrophe and epode is a sort of refrain ailinon ailinon eipe, to d' eu nikatô; these lines are recited as a climax.
In the fifth strophe, the group as a whole is speaking, accompanying their text with the clapping of hands.
Since the strophes split from a common spine, they all necessarily begin by sharing the same exclusive interpretation.
Notice that all of the tandem interpretations related to the strophe organization are eliminated from the output.
As noted, the strophe technique can be used to encode different editorial interpretations of a single work.
As Milton says, "strophe, antistrophe and epode were a kind of stanza framed for the music then used with the chorus that sang."
Antistrophe was also a kind of ancient dance, wherein dancers stepped sometimes to the right, and sometimes to the left, still doubling their turns or conversions.
Strophe is pleased to announce that it has been nominated to Microsoft President's Club for the 8th consecutive year!
Strophe grew very rapidly and extensively due to the excellence of its achievements.
With a wider range of services, Microserv and Strophe partnership enables each partner's customer base to benefit from a broader pool of service offerings, so as to meet their systems analysis and infrastructure needs, including implementation of cutting-edge IT solutions, support and after-sales service, regardless of the stage of the project.
Strophe has built a solid reputation by delivering its projects in time while meeting the stated objectives and constantly exceeding its customers' expectations.
The strophe is simultaneously marked by tension and peaceful rest, like an eagle combining strength and ease, but Goethe puts the emphasis on the peaceful aspect: "with soft spread pinion resting" (J. Dwight version) ("mit sanften Fittich ruhend").
According to this strophe, Fantasy is God's "Schoßkind." Furthermore, she is "ewig beweglich, immer neu." I would argue that here we have an allusion to the Biblical Book of Wisdom 7:21f., where the nature and attributes of personified feminine Wisdom are listed in detail.
In strophe 1, it is stated that Fantasy is in movement and is ever new.
Strophe, un important fournisseur de systèmes financiers de la région, est heureuse d'annoncer la nomination d'un nouveau directeur de l'expansion des affaires pour sa division de l'Atlantique.
Strophe a annoncé l'engagement d'une nouvelle directrice générale, Paula Minnikin, pour sa division de l'Atlantique.
Strophe est un partenaire certifié Or de Microsoft et est qualifiée pour deux domaines de compétence de Microsoft.
STROPHE uses several distinct strategies: directions for instrumental grouping and activity; visual images; rhythmic and textural instructions; and electroacoustic 'prompts'.
The recording reflects Hall's interests in evolution and time, from radioactive elements (Irradiations), to early primates (Ancestors), to the stage movements of the chorus in classical Greek drama (Strophe Suite), to cybernetics (Reactor).
Strophe's tracks make facets of reality audible, from the elemental to the archetypal.
It is a part of the immense alphabetical canticle: The Psalmist divides his work in 22 strophes, which correspond to the succession of the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet.
Each strophe has eight verses, which begin with Hebrew words all of which start with the same letter of the alphabet.
The one which we have just heard is a strophe characterized by the Hebrew letter koph, which presents the man of prayer expressing his intense life of faith and prayer to God (see verses 145-152).
On "They Feed They Lion"
On first reading, this source seems to be primarily the anger and frustrations of the poor lying in wait along the side of the road—frustrations and anger that grow without purpose, building to some breaking point as emphasized by the frequent repetition of the clause "They lion grow" in lines 5, 11, 18, and 25.
Only in the fourth and fifth strophes do we switch to enjambment—and then basically because our revivalist is now excited, is racing towards the climax, and no longer has time to stop at the end of every line.
It is also with these two strophes that the repetition changes from "out of" to "from"—from a preposition locating one in space to one implying a more specific cause and effect.
The music also begins as strophe 2, but rather than returning to the music of strophe 1, intensifies and comes to a climax.
Note that strophe 2 has a clear connection to strophe 1, while strophe 3 is related to strophe 2, but not strophe 1.
The vocal line begins as did strophe 1, but Brahms indicates that the music continue to become more lively, and the more forceful syncopations in the accompaniment continue.
The last line in each strophe followed the rhyme of the refrain." From the zéjel descended a type of vernacular Spanish (and Galician-Portuguese) poetic form known as the cantiga de estribillo (or cantiga de refram).
The estribillo was especially important to the villancico style; Gilbert Chase, author of The Music of Spain, indicates that it was emblematic of the villancico that its "basic pattern rested on the device of the initial refrain" and that otherwise there could be found much latitude in the construction of its verse.
The first part of the strophe (mudanza) has a different melody and rhyme than the refrain; the second part of the strophe (vuelta) repeats the melody and rhyme of the refrain.
The Sapphic strophe consists of three Sapphic lines followed by an Adonic.
Sidelight: A poem consisting of just one stanza is monostrophic; a poem with the repetition of metrically identical stanzas is homostrophic; a poem not divided into strophic units or that is arranged in irregular stanzas is astrophic.
The Rosary of the Seven Sorrows consists of seven groups of seven beads, with three additional beads and a medal or crucifix.
It is also likely that some odes were delivered not by the chorus in two parts but by the chorus as a unit moving in one direction during the strophe, then in the opposite direction during the antistrophe, and standing still during the epode.
Its structure is essentially that of the classical ode indicated above: the strophe and antistrophe can consist of any number of lines of any lengths following any rhyme scheme of the poet's choosing; they are, however, identical in structure.
The epode differs in structure in whatever ways the poet chooses to make it differ to suit his content; it is usually placed after the antistropbc but may be used between the strophe and antistrophe.

Get ready to get taxed for the miles you drive, "Black Box" in each car will relay info to the government.
Forget the freedom of the "open road." Soon every mile one drives may be relayed back to government tax collectors. I pray that your commute isn't too long. It's not like you pay copious gasoline taxes already or anything. No, the little digital spy in your car will determine how much you owe above and beyond your Income taxes, payroll taxes, sales taxes, highway tolls, phone taxes, and only God knows what other taxes. And don't disconnect that black box. You wouldn't want to go to jail for tax evasion would you?
The article says that at least some of the folks at Reason Magazine are for this kind of tax. If so we are shocked, and Reason ought to reconsider. We get that tying taxation closer to those who use a resource is probably a decent principal in spirit but to sanction a digital spy which will relay every bit of one's movements to authorities seems incredibly shortsighted.
Several states and cities are nonetheless moving ahead on their own. The most eager is Oregon, which is enlisting 5,000 drivers in the country's biggest experiment. Those drivers will soon pay the mileage fees instead of gas taxes to the state. Nevada has already completed a pilot. New York City is looking into one. Illinois is trying it on a limited basis with trucks. And the I-95 Coalition, which includes 17 state transportation departments along the Eastern Seaboard (including Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Florida), is studying how they could go about implementing the change.
The concept is not a universal hit.

The area I hear people complain about the most is their back, and I'm not just saying that because my husband has degenerative disc disease. Did you know that approximately 31 million people in America are suffering from lower back pain at any given time! (1) That's almost 10% of our population. What's even crazier than that 10%, is that almost 80% experience back pain at some point in their life. I know I've had some back pain, nothing debilitating but enough to make me feel ouchie! One of the best ways to prevent back pain is to strengthen the core.
So how do you get a stronger core? I've broken the core down into a 3 part series with some exercises to show you how to get one.
The core is basically the middle section of your body: spine, abdomen and hips. The core is made up of approximately 35 different muscle groups. So while you are working on that six pack, there are more muscles working than the stack you've got peaking through. One thing to consider though, is that just because you have a 6 pack doesn't necessarily mean you've got the right support for your spine. So lets focus on working from the inside out.
Your core is made up of 3 different systems. The Local Stabilization System, the Global Stabilization System and the Movement System. Each has a key factor in how our cores function to keep our bodies functioning effectively. Our body parts are so in sync with each other that if one part isn't working right, it is likely damaging another part. For instance, say you injure your foot. Chances are you are going to limp, which means you're going to be favoring one side. The opposite side may get sore from over compensating. The longer that foot is injured the more you're going to disrupt. It can go all the way up to causing a kink in your neck! First, let's talk about the Local Stabilization System.
Just like any other exercise routine, it's best to start from the bottom and move up in intensity. The name "stabilization system" basically tells you what it does: it stabilizes your core. Strengthening this muscle system helps provide support from vertebra to vertebra. It helps to reduce over extension or compression of your spine. Think about standing perfectly still while balancing on one foot. All of the little muscles surrounding your ankle are helping to keep your ankle supported so it doesn't bend and get strained. They keep that joint stable to prevent injury. By strengthening the stabilization system of your core, you are sort of adding a restrictive cushion to keep your spine safe.
Guess what? No sit ups are required for this system, though some of these may be new to you, I'm sure you are familiar with the plank. So that is where we will begin. I recommend adding these moves into a morning routine: Crawl out of bed, drink a big glass of water, stretch, and do some core work. Try doing 1 exercise, resting for 30-60 seconds and doing another, repeating each circuit 2-3 times.
Disclaimer: If you have any unique or special medical conditions, such as if you're pregnant, or if you have a history of knee, ankle, shoulder or spinal (back or neck) problems, you must consult with a competent and reliable physician to understand all risks, contraindications and complications of starting this exercise list, and receive authorization from them before beginning. Failure to do so could result in significant injury to you and others (including, if applicable, your unborn child). By using this program, you assume all dangers, hazards, and risks of injury in the use of this program.
If you have never done a plank, try this modification. Start each variation with 30 seconds and work your way up. Once you feel you've got a minute down, try moving on to the next variation. On the last one try holding it as long as you can. The longer you can hold the plank the higher your endurance.
You will need a sturdy bench or chair. Place your hands on the bench and feet on the floor. Straighten your body out so that your body forms a straight line from head to toe. Hold for your desired length of time.
If you've made it past using a bench, try doing plank from the floor in standard push up position with your hands and knees on the floor. Make sure to keep your body in a straight line from head to shoulders to the hip. Make sure you are flexing your stomach muscles to help keep your body straight.
Next progression is to get those knees off the ground. It helps to flex your hamstrings (back of the thigh) and glutes (rear) to help keep you straightened out and take a little bit of pressure off your shoulders. Make sure you hold that straight line from head to toe. In other words, keep your behind down with out sagging. If you can't hold in a straight line yet please go back to your knees.
Final progression is to plank on your forearms instead of hands. All the same rules apply. Keep your body in a straight line, flex as above, and hold as long as you can.
This isn't the marching you are probably thinking of. It's going to be done on the floor laying on your back.
Lay on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the ground, lay your arms by your sides.
Make sure you keep your stomach tucked in, pretend you are pushing your belly button to the spine to help keep your abs drawn in during the whole exercise.
Begin by lifting one bent leg till your calf is parallel to the ground, once you reach the that point hold it for 1 to 2 seconds and slowly lower back to the floor. Repeat for the opposite leg. Raise each leg for a total of 12-20 reps per side.
Maybe it's time to move on to your Global Stabilization System. If you are interested in learning about the other 2 core systems, please visit www.myfitkick.com to learn more.

For our purpose: although this cultural impediment is diminishing in many firms, trust issues still abound in many professional service firms, especially with the trend of mergers, acquisitions and lateral movement of partners/practices coming full circle yet again. If trust issues exist in your firm, it will be critical to adopt what we refer to as "Rules of Engagement." The rules will set the framework for what a firm contact is. As an example, if a contact is employed by an existing client, or is known by "x" number of firm colleagues, these rules would set the context for what a firm contact is. Another rule to incorporate is to have the users understand that just because a contact exists in the CRM system does not provide carte blanche rights to reach out and make a pitch. We always recommend firms create a criteria of "Relationship Manager" for companies and key contacts, and a business process that promotes engaging with the Relationship Manager and collaborating together before making the pitch, strengthening the concept of team selling. Sometimes trust concerns are simply about if "I share my data, how can I be sure it does not get messed up." Well with a strong CRM system, this will not be an issue, but a critical aspect of functionality that needs to be reviewed closely, because as we have seen for years, you mess up users data, they will not participate. Ultimately, a foundational key to CRM success is to create the framework of trust in your organization and the system supporting your efforts.

Responsible Reuse of Data
REsponsible: ethical data marketplace meeting all compliance and security needs
REuse: let's make sensitive data eligible for commercialization so that monetization and secondary use can be created with the consent of the users
Then ethical personal data market
Secondary usage of data is in interest of all parties. The reData.me platform enables all stakeholders in a personal data market to engage in ethical data trading that is built around the consent of the data subjects.
Data monetization
Many companies collect a lot of data that would be suitable for other purposes than their original purpose. But due to the personal nature of the data, they are usually not able to be monetized, despite the lost opportunity on both ends. The reData.me platform creates the opportunity for the organization to offer the data generated in the company for sale in data packages, so that the request for the final transfer of the data always comes from the data owner.
Data purchasing
We often cause unnecessy inconvenience to our customers by requesting data, as they would be available elsewhere. We could even offer new services building on the secondary usage of data available at partners that we could never have offered on data collected on our own. The reData.me platform enables the development of new services based on the retrieval of data from it's original space driven by a user consent.
Three-sided transaction - four-sided interest
The reData.me platform connects the actors with the data (data holder), the actors intending to use the data (data user) and the persons about whom the data are about (data owner). We believe that if all parties are interested in the transaction, new data values can be offered that provide a better customer experience, new services, or new research. That is why we have developed a business model that is profitable and transparent to all parties while complying with the legal and security requirements.
Data holder side
We allow data holders to define data packages, for which they can define a price for a third-party access. The description and price of the data packages will be displayed in the reData.me data marketplace where data users can browse. If data users launch a service in which the data owner gives permission to transfer the data, the data holder receives an access fee for transfering the data. In this way, the accumulated data capital can indeed be converted into assets with a turnover value.
Data user side
we allow data users to create data request forms containing offers to data owners (end users) and the data they intend to request. his gives data users an accurate view of what data they can use for what purpose and, if there is user consent, how much the transaction will cost them. This allows them to make a clear business calculation of whether it's worth starting a data-based service and requesting valuable data.
Data owner side
Data owners are the main beneficiaries of the reData.me platform, as they can control the secondary use of their data and enjoy the added value services, while for them the use of the system is free of charge. Moreover, in some cases it is possible for them to receive compensation directly for the use of their data for special purposes, of which they are not the direct beneficiaries.
reData.me side
The business model of the reData.me is based on transaction fees. Of the data access fees paid to data holders , 10% is spent on the operation and development of the reData.me. With this model, reData.me is also interested in having the most transactions possible on it's platform thus making as much money as possible for data owners and generating as much value as possible from the data transfer.
ue to the well-chosen business model, integrating to the reData platform is free of charge, you only have to pay for the transactions that was delivered.
One integration - many connections
By integrating once with the reData.me platform, your organization can join many organizations that are willing to engage in ethical data trading. Joining is easy and free.
Technical integration
During technical integration, we install a Local Redata Gateway (LRG) to create a node for your organization to participate in encrypted data transfers or requests for data. In doing so, we ensure the management of private and public keys, integration with databases and connection to the necessary customer authentication procedures.
Define data supply and/or demand
On the data supply page, it is possible to define data packages, which can be issued about each user based on their consents. Metadata about the defined data packages is displayed in the reData.me data market.
On a data request page , you can define data requester form for each business case the company has , in which you can specify which data packages your organization would request for a specific business process should there be a customer need. The trigger of your data requester form can be connected to your organization's own page so that customers can be reached.
When a user triggers a data requester form on the organization's side, the reData.me collects the user's consent and redirects the user to the owner of the selected data package, and then performs the transfer of the encrypted data.
On the basis of the transactions carried out and the prices defined in the data market space, a settlement and a monthly payment will be made between the actors involved in the data trading.
Safe, Secure and compliant.
The reData.me platform pays particular attention to ensuring that the framework it provides meets all safety and security standards. Ensuring both security and compliance is of paramount importance in this.
Our system is designed technologically to eliminate potential misuses.
No-access policy
The reData.me system is designed in such a way that even the operators of the reData.me cannot see into the data transmitted by the platform. The transferred data is encrypted on the data holder's server with the data user's public key, which can only be unlocked with the data user's private key. Because of this, if anywhere, anyone would be able to access a data package during the transfer, they would only see an encrypted file. This is the reason, why even reData.me do not have access to personal data at all.
Data holder side authentication
When a user wants to request the transfer of his or her data, after identifying the scope of the data, the user is redirected by the reData.me to the data holder's page, where he or she must authenticate themselves. This is how the data holder can verify that it is a legitimate request and who is the user to whom it is required to disclose its data. With this technology, we can ensure that the reData.me platform does not even know who the user is. All we need to know is that he had the ability to authenticate him- or herself at the data holder.
Loging transactions
It is important that the reData.me platform keeps track of the consents upon which it has provided data based on what requests it has fulfilled. This information is stored using an inadvertable loging technique (SAML protocol),which allows us to have a clear and verifiable status of the legal basis for the transactions we have made. The same secure log encryption technology is also used to perform citizen authentications across Europe.
The use, especially secondary use, of data in Europe is determined by the GDPR framework. In addition, a number of European policies are now being developed that will frame the movement of data. In addition, a number of European policies are now being developed that will frame the movement of data. When designing reData.me,one of our basic principles was that the companies using our system for data trading could easily comply with the live and upcoming regulations.
Legal complience
In the structure of the system, the use of data should clarify exactly for what purpose the requester will use it and what benefit the end-user will derive from it. This is read and approved by the user, so the requirement for purposeful, understanding consent is fully met. (GDPR Article 6.7)
Purpose bound data usage
Releasing data is always a delicate operation from a legal point of view. In the system of reData.me, when a user accepts that a data package can be used for a specific purpose, a data transfer request is made to the data holder. Thus, the data-giving party has a clear legal basis for the release of the requested data on the grounds of the right to data portability. (Article 20 GDPR).
Data sharing service provider
Since reData.me cannot look into the data it transfers it certainly cannot provide data analytics services. This makes us a perfect partner in the value-chain of creating value from data as the data sharing service provider. The primary objective of the Data Governance Act, which is still under negotiation, is to define neutral actors in the trading of data from the point of view of such data analysis, which requirement is also met by reData.me.


Make no mistake; when the Chinese advocate "globalism", they don't envision a world with multiple governments nor do they envision a world government run by the West. They don't talk about their end game, nor does anyone else. When China talks regional alliances, they envision choreographed unison along the path. Regional alliances would be a great end game and it is unlikely that any nation would be able to push past regional alliances any more than any nation could live without them.
Whether a nation's goal is protectionism or a one-world government, regional alliances between individual sovereign nations are the only future that awaits us—at least before Christ descends from a wormhole in the clouds.
China has roads and bridges to build. Russia has a nation to rebuild. Militaries have hackers to train and break in. Anonymous hackers have kudos to earn, coup to count, and chests to thump. And, nations have computers to defend, even island nations across China's east coast. Alliances are certainly in season—and for good reason.
But, right now all those plans halt at an impasse over a bridge with a brittle keystone. The Kim Dynasty can see it's own defeat on the horizon; we all can. Japan will rise to action. The US will rally the world. China will endorse. Russia will sit quietly. Then, China will seize its opportunity for the shift in the balance as Russia finds its excuse for "retaliation". Once Korea snaps, the first shot gets fired and no battle plan will survive.


The month of January 2019 saw the Canadian Government and provinces across the country to invite more than 40,000 potential applicants through the key economic immigration and family sponsorship programs.
The new economic immigration plan is set up by the Canadian Government to invite at least 331,000 new permanent residents in the year 2019 for skill migration and family sponsorship programs. Therefore, the first month of the year is a clear indication by the Canadian government that it has no trouble in achieving its goal of inviting one million immigrants by the end of 2021.
The majority of these new migrants are expected through Canada's various economic immigration programs namely Federal Express Entry System and Canada's Provincial Nominee Program.

The other program called as Provincial Nomination Program is also expected to invite migrants in huge numbers. The PNP allows applicants to come and work in the particular province on permanent basis. Nearly 5,000 immigration candidates were issued invitations to apply for a provincial nomination last month through PNPs namely British Columbia, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.
There was another big thing happened in January and that was the reopening of Canada's Parents and Grandparents Program (PGP) to new expressions of interest. IRCC has set a target of giving 27,000 expressions of interest for the PGP's in this current year.

Rewind 2017
2017 has been an unpredictable year from start to finish. From politics to movies to the weather. Everything's gone topsy-turvy during this latest journey of the Earth around the Sun! Here are some of the happenings that grabbed the world's attention and made it skip a collective heartbeat.
Britain's Hung Parliament
After the Brexit vote of 2016, Britain has had yet another difficult year when it comes to it political front. Britain invoked Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty, which made the Brexit vote of 2016 concrete.
Theresa May's snap election backfired. As May's Conservative Party lost its majority status, it resulted in a hung parliament.
As Britain's debt to the European Union stands at a towering €40-60 billion, Britain is set to face a hard Brexit and a hard 2018.
The Oscar Goof-Up
The 89th Academy Awards were viewed by millions of movie buffs from around the globe, just like their
predecessors. But something happened during the 2017 ceremony that grabbed the attention of those who may not movie enthusiasts under ordinary circumstances!
This year, not one but two movies got announced as the winner for the Best Picture section, accidentally. La La Land was mistakenly announced the winner instead of Moonlight, after a mix-up with the cue-cards. The mistake was realised only once the cast and crew were on the stage receiving their award. It was then corrected and the team of Moonlight was invited on the stage.
The Rohingya Crisis
The plight of the Rohingya people, a huge majority of Muslims and a few Hindus, came to the forefront. The Rohingyas have been living for centuries in Myanmar, a country with a dominant Buddhist population. After an outbreak of violence in August, Rohingyas started fleeing Myanmar for neighbouring countries and almost 400,000 have fled the country to find refuge in places like Bangladesh.
Stories of mass killings, systemic rape and torture taking place in Myanmar have surged. The country is considered to be controlled by the military even though it has a democratically elected government.
The episode is being termed as an act of conscious ethnic cleansing, undertaken by the Myanmar government.
The #MeToo Campaign
When actress Alyssa Milano shared the phrase 'Me too' on her twitter account as part of a sexual harassment awareness campaign, the internet exploded with responses. Milano's allegations of sexual assault against Harvey Weinstein, which surfaced in October 2017, spread around the world and gained momentum to become a global phenomenon.
The most high-profile cases have circled around the media and entertainment industry but there are many women around the globe who have spoken up about abuse. This movement is being viewed as a major push that has raised the people out of a deep slumber, and for many, it has changed how they view the world.
TIME Magazine named the #MeToo campaign their 'Person of the Year', and their cover features women who have shown the courage to break the silence.
Royal Engagement
Meghan Markle will be the first American to be married into the British royal family since Wallis Simpson married King Edward VIII – a very controversial relationship that triggered a constitutional crisis. The King was abdicated in 1936 and the couple married in 1937.
This incident can very well put the importance of this engagement in perspective. Not only is Miss Markle an American, she is a divorced, biracial, Protestant American. Amongst decisions like Brexit and the terror attacks happening in England, people have welcomed this step towards a more accepting world with open arms.
So much has been said in the media, American and global, about President Trump that it seems superfluous to add our words to the mix. Suffice to say that the 45th President of the United States of America, who has been in office nearly the entire year of 2017, has been one of the most controversial Presidents ever.
From the Russia investigation to allegations of sexual scandal, from Twitter-happy fingers to political gaffes, President Trump still maintains his popularity with his base through conservative and rightist economic and immigration policies.
Just like the rest of the world, Hong Kong has experienced a very fluid 2017, with some happy moments and some moments that were less so. Some of the events that made headlines in Hong Kong are:
1. The government of Hong Kong elected its first female Chief Executive in March 2017, when the ex- Chief Secretary of Administration, Carrie Lam took over that post.
2. Hong Kong celebrated its 20th anniversary of handover from Britain to China with great pomp and ceremony.
3. Hong Kong issued the highest level of tropical cyclone warning signals, No. 10, since the year 2012. Typhoon Hato was a strong typhoon that made the Hong Kong Observatory record a record-breaking temperature of 36.6°C, the highest in 132 years.
4. Hong Kong also registered its hottest January on record. The temperatures soared at an average of 18.5°C, the highest ever in January since 1885. Two clear signs, perhaps, of global warming doing its worst.
As we look back upon 2017 and all its turmoil, let's make a collective decision to make the planet a better, cleaner, more peaceful, and more inclusive place, in the year to come.

Senior living options abound in the Valley

California is projected to be one of the fastest growing states in the U.S., with Fresno County recently passing the 1 million population mark.
The Golden State's elderly population is expected to grow twice as fast as the total population, with the growth varying from region to region. According to the California State Plan on Aging 2017-2021, the number of adults over the age of 65 in the Central Valley is expected to increase by 117 percent by 2030.
The state plan notes that less than half of older Californians have a retirement income (e.g. pension, 401K or IRA) in addition to Social Security benefits, and 28 percent are estimated to have incomes below the amount an older adult would require to meet basic needs, and that 26 percent of seniors spend 30 percent of their income on housing expenses.
Whether one is looking at senior living options for themselves or their parents, the Central Valley offers a variety of housing options that can help make the twilight years of the elderly more comfortable and enjoyable.
George Kutnerian is the CEO of Fresno Guest Homes, which has 10 six-bed Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly (RCFE), with different homes catering to the different needs of a residents. Currently, 80 percent of RCEFs are six-bed facilities.
All of the homes are in the same neighborhood, and it brings the advantage of aging in place. As residents get older and their needs change, they can move to another home in the neighborhood that could better meet their needs, such as memory care. An 11th home will be opening in a few months.
The average age of Fresno Guest Homes residents is 89, and since the 6-bed facilities are typical residential houses, residents get to enjoy a smaller setting that makes it easier for them to get around, especially those suffering from memory issues.
Prices can range from $1,000 per month to more than $4,000. Fresno Guest Homes participates in a MediCal program that helps pay for the cost of care as an alternative to nursing home care.
Kutnerian is part of trade association called 6Beds, Inc, which represents more than 2000 6-bed facilities. He says that there is a lot of money going into senior living facilities.
"There is a lot of investment going into the sector," Kutnerian said. "The data shows that the number of facilities is going up in the Valley. There's definitely growth in the market here."
While there might be a lot of facility options for senior living, Kutnerian said that the biggest issue in the coming 20 years might be the affordability, and that it is an issue that should be contemplated by the state Legislature.
Just a few streets down from Old Town Clovis on Sierra Avenue right near Highway 168 is Magnolia Crossing, a homelike assisted living community that aims to give its residents an open, social environment that keeps them connected.
Magnolia Crossing opened up right at the end of 2017, and it consists of three Craftsman style homes, each with 16 private bedrooms with their own bathrooms, three covered patios and a common area.
Michael and Marisa Sigala founded Magnolia Crossing after searching for assisted living homes for their own parents, but did not like any of the homes available, and then set out to create a more homelike, close knit retirement community.
Lisa Kooiman, sales director for Magnolia Crossing, said that they focus more on their individual residents to ensure a comfortable setting.
"We take a person centered approach to caring for an individual and not necessarily doing things for them but alongside them and encouraging their independence and activity," Kooiman said.
Each house can be seen as its own small community, and residents are free to visit each house to socialize with other residents.
Prices for Magnolia Crossing range from $1000 to $4,300 per month, depending on income and availability.
Nestled in the quiet countryside on Temperance Avenue, just past Kings Canyon Avenue, the California Armenian Home has recently finished a large-scale expansion project, currently the largest privately funded project of its kind in the Central Valley, called the Vineyards.
The $42 million project was approved in 2015, and construction was completed in January of 2018, and brought 174,000 square feet of expansion.
The Santa Barbara-style building, resembling more of a luxury resort than senior living facilities, offers 60 independent living apartments, 50 assisted living units and 36 memory care units.
Prices for apartments in studio, one-and two-bedrooms have a price range from $2,100 a month for independent living to $4,070 for assisted living and $4,340 for memory care.
There are also 12 two-bedroom independent living villas or cottages with one-and two-car garages, and back patios with strips of artificial grass. Seniors who wish to bring their animal companions will be glad to know that pets are allowed in the apartments and the villas.
The Vineyards also has its own cafe, hair salon and a small movie theater for the residents to enjoy together.
Ren Marie Ramshaw, director of sales for the Vineyards, said the Vineyards provides everything needed to make sure the residents always come first.
"What really makes the Vineyards of the California Armenian Home unique is that we have the full continuum of care," Ramshaw said. "Great food, dining experiences, and luxury seal through the next chapter of assisted living—having that ebb and flow between the different levels of care is unique to the Vineyard."

Inter alia we note the following: Bullinger emphasizes what Scripture teaches not necessarily the line held by Zwingli or Oecolampadius or whoever. This is the true Reformation principle of sola scriptura. He also emphasis the unity of the canon. It is all inspired by God and every part is relevant – he knocks Luther with his comment "in which we find no straw." The reference to Nicene-Chalcedonian orthodoxy is probably also responding to views that argued that Zwingli had Nestorian tendencies because of his perceived understanding of the eucharist.
Dowey's comments about the covenant in Bullinger is his response to the view of J Wayne Baker in his Heinrich Bullinger and the Covenant: The Other Reformed Tradition.


In a world of political correctness and Christmas culture wars, Reagan's national address is almost unbelievable! It is a breath of fresh Christmas air!

Every website has casual readers. These are the people who come to your site every once in a while when, for some reason or another, they remember that you exist. Or, they might click on your articles every now and then if they see them on social media or elsewhere on the web. But they don't actively seek out your site on a daily basis. Your site isn't saved to their bookmarks, and it's not a regular stop on their morning Internet tour (email, Facebook, news sites, etc.).
There's nothing wrong with casual readers. They're an important part of your site's traffic. If you want to take your audience engagement to the next level, however, you need die-hard fans. Die-hard fans check your site daily and comment on your articles. They anticipate your new content, and can't wait to share it with their friends. These are the kind of readers that lead to exponentially more readers. Because of their sharing and commenting, these are the readers you want.
So how can you turn a casual reader into a loyal fan?
Seek out your commenters on social platforms like Twitter, Tumblr or Instagram, if appropriate, and follow them from your site's account.
Even if they don't use their real names, many people use the same handle across platforms and you'll be able to find them. Taking the relationship to a new platform not only shows them you noticed their comments, it opens a second avenue in which to win them over with your valuable content.
There's a reason musician Taylor Swift has some of the most die-hard fans around, and it's not just her music. She regularly surprises fans by exceeding expectations – adding special guests to her concerts, sending fans personal gifts and even helping them pay for college. Studies have repeatedly shown that people remember positive events far longer than they remember negative ones, and you too can take advantage of this by creating delight for your readers.
Host a spontaneous giveaway of the hottest new product. Surprise a reader with a free subscription/upgrade/discount. If your site sells something, hold a flash sale offering a massive discount during a short window of time. Send a personal 'thank you' email to someone who shared your post.
The average reader who doesn't know you personally probably doesn't expect much from you. That means it only takes a little extra effort to surprise her and create a positive impression that will keep the reader coming back.
If you're practicing all of the above steps, you'll naturally begin to get to know your readers a little better. If you notice one of them has a blog or contributes to a news site, become their fan! Reciprocate by reading, commenting on and sharing their articles. This is how real relationships are formed, and that's where die-hard fans are made!
