Pastor Sok Em in Kampong Chnang, Cambodia recently sent a report from the Evangelical Fellowship of Cambodia. The General Secretary stated that there are over 2000 churches in Cambodia [15 million] and 235 churches in Phnom Penh, the capital [1.7 million]. That's roughly one church for every 7-8,000 people. This is phenomenal growth when you consider there were probably only a handful of churches in 1990 when Cambodia first began to open up to the outside world.
For comparison, Quebec has one evangelical church for every 10,000 people; Ontario has one church for 3,500, while the rest of Canada is roughly one church for 2,000.
Rev. Heng Cheng, the General Secretary went on to say that less than 2% of those churches are able to support a full-time pastor, and that of all the persons identified as pastors of these congregations, at least 80% would have to be regarded as inadequate Christian leaders.
He mentions a pastor who came to register his church with the EFC. When interviewed it was apparent that the man had very little knowledge of God or the Bible. Rev. Heng asked him how he came to be a pastor. The man replied, because there was no one to lead this particular group of people and so he stepped up and everyone in the group appointed him as pastor.
In the same report Rev.Heng told another story about a particular church in Kampong Som province. There was a lady in that church who was sick and the pastor and other leaders thought that she was demon-possessed. They tied her arms and legs and whipped her to drive the demon out of her. Somehow the woman escaped and reported to the authorities that her pastor and elders had whipped her. Serious problems ensued for that church.
This is the context of a recent visit to Cambodia by myself and Pastor Joseph Moreau from Ecclesiax FMC in Ottawa. We were spending a few days becoming acquainted with the current ministry of the Free Methodist Church in Cambodia. In conferring with Rev. Joel Margin, the FM team leader, an experienced pastor from the Philippines who has lived in Cambodia for the last eight years, he confirmed the above report. There are more Christians and churches than there are trained leaders to disciple them – and it is resulting in serious concerns.
Enter Pastor Sok and Savy Em. It was Pastor Sok who began the Free Methodist church planting work in Cambodia in the early 90s, while still living and pastoring in Canada. He and his wife Savy have recently left their grown children behind in Canada and moved to the city of Kampong Chnang, about two hours north of Phnom Penh. Working with other mature Christian leaders they are establishing a modular training program for lay pastors. A high-quality, three-year, interdenominational, residential bible college program in Phnom Penh is graduating a steady flow of trained pastors, but the flow is just not adequate for the number of churches that need trained leaders. The Tahas Bible Institute, on the other hand, is designed to offer 2-3 week practical programs in bible knowledge and pastoral skills at the training centre in Kampong Chnang, every couple of months. Lay pastors will continue working in their home villages, sustaining their personal needs. Pastor Sok Em will go out to visit these pastors in the surrounding region providing coaching in their own ministry situations.
Sok Em's role and ministry plan is a bit unconventional but it is addressing the specific situation in Cambodia at this present time. Although an Ordained Minister in The Free Methodist Church in Canada, he is released for ministry to work with Mission to Unreached Peoples [MUP] in Cambodia, a small para-church mission organization. This is the organization to whom he is accountable for his finances and ministry objectives.
In November 2006, Pastor Em conducted a weeklong course with 10 Free Methodist pastors and leaders on "Pastoral Ministry Practices." The course was taught in Prek Thei, Sok's home village and the location of the first Free Methodist church he planted in Cambodia. Joel Margin, the FM team leader, reported that having a mature Christian leader teach a course like that in the Khmer language and cultural framework is a tremendous asset for their leaders. This leadership development partnership between Sok Em and The Free Methodist Church in Cambodia promises well for the future.

Katherine Courtenay Johnston Collection Correspondence
Katherine Courtenay Johnston was born in 1877 in Botetourt County, Virginia to Charles Johnston (1844-1910) and Nannie (Thornton) Johnston (1852-1911). In the late 19th century, Katherine Courtenay Johnston moved to Los Angeles, California where she attended school and was later employed as a teacher. In the early 20th century she received her law degree and subsequently moved to New York where she worked as an attorney in Manhattan until her death in 1952. Katherine Courtenay Johnston is buried in the Angelus Rosedale Cemetery in Los Angeles, California.
Through her father's family, Katherine Courtenay Johnston was descended from Peter Johnston, who emigrated to Virginia from Scotland in 1727. In 1765 he moved to Prince Edward County and purchased a large tract of land which he originally named Cherry Hill and later renamed Longwood. Peter Johnston and his wife Martha (Rogers) had four sons: Peter Johnston, Jr., Andrew, Charles, and Edward. Two of those sons, Peter Johnston, Jr. (1763-1831) and Charles Johnston (1769-1833) are represented in this collection.
On both sides of her family, Katherine Courtenay Johnston was related to some of the most influential and important Virginia families. As such, this collection of materials related to her family provides tremendous insight into Virginia history before, during, and after the Civil War.

Q: I can't get my Data Store V2 to work, It always returns nil I read the Data Store V2 documentation on the Dev Hub and tried to make a similar code, but I can't get it to work. It doesn't have any errors other than Attempt to index nil with Version because it can't get the Data. It returns Succes = true, and CurrentNumber, KeyInfo = nil. There are no errors when saving the data and the Succes variable is always returned true. I enabled the security configuration to allow data stores, the game is public and I tested it both on studio and the actual game(on Roblox). The code is in a script in the Server Script Service Here's the code:
local DataStoreService = game:GetService('DataStoreService')
local Players = game:GetService('Players')
-- Data Stores:
-- Enables Data Stores V2
local Options = Instance.new('DataStoreOptions')
Options:SetExperimentalFeatures({["v2"] = true})

local NumberStore:DataStore = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("PlayerNumber", "global", Options)

local SetOptions = Instance.new('DataStoreSetOptions')
SetOptions:SetMetadata({['PlayerNumberType'] = 'Int'})

local function SaveNumberData(Player:Player)
   local Number = 1

   local PlayerKey = 'Player_1234'

   local Sucess, Errormessage = pcall(function()
       NumberStore:SetAsync(PlayerKey, Number, {Player.UserId}, SetOptions)
   end)

   if not Sucess then
       print(Errormessage)
   else
       print('Data Saved')
   end

end

local function LoadPlayerData(Player:Player)

   local PlayerKey = 'Player_1234'

   local Sucess, CurrentNumber, KeyInfo:DataStoreKeyInfo = pcall(function()
       NumberStore:GetAsync(PlayerKey)
   end)

   if Sucess then
       print(CurrentNumber)
       print(KeyInfo.Version)
       print(KeyInfo.CreatedTime)
       print(KeyInfo.UpdatedTime)
       print(KeyInfo:GetUserIds())
       print(KeyInfo:GetMetadata())
   else
       print(CurrentNumber)
   end

end

Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(SaveNumberData)
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(LoadPlayerData)

A: I found the answer, I forgot to put return before NumberStore:GetAsync(PlayerKey)

Q: Segmentation fault with arrays I am having problems with segmentation fault. When I run this particular code on a windows machine with devc++ or codeblocks it runs how I intended. The problem occurs when I try and run on a linux machine. I was told that it was most likely due to pointers trying to access locations they are not allowed but i cannot figure out why.
When I run the program without the "empinfo.txt" file it will start and allow me to do any of the menu options except for "1-Add", so the problem seems to have something to do with the way I am using arrays with my structure.
I included all of the code but the only problems functions(i think) are initialize and add. Any help on what is the correct way to use an array of chars in this case would be highly appreciated.
Here is sample input that would be in empinfo.txt file
12   JackSprat   2     1    65000
13   HumptyDumpty  5   3    30000
17   BoPeep  2       3      30000

A: Use a debugger. If you are on Linux you probably have access to gdb. Here is a session with your example and the provided test file:
$ gdb test
...
(gdb) run
...
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x0000000000400bb2 in initializeList () at test.c:111
111     while(tempPtr->next->EMP_ID!=0){
Missing separate debuginfos, use: debuginfo-install glibc-2.18-14.fc20.x86_64
(gdb) p tempPtr
$1 = (struct employeeData *) 0x603250
(gdb) p tempPtr->next
$2 = (struct employeeData *) 0x0

We can see that we are trying to dereference a NULL pointer on line 111. It should be easy to locate the problem with this information.
This is also sure to cause errors:
empinfo=fopen(...)
...
empinfo=NULL;
free(empinfo);
fclose(empinfo);

You should not free the handle you got from fopen and you should not set it to NULL, let fclose handle this.

A: Welcome to the world of undefined behaviour! Beside a lot of other things, UB happens if you do this:
The value of the object allocated by the malloc function is used (7.20.3.3).

Find out more in the C99 standard, specifically take a look at Annex J. This is not a fun read, but essential if you want to use the C language in any other context than playing around.
So what happened to you is that on the Windows platform the memory returned by malloc() was obviously initialized to non-zero, including tempPtr->EMP_ID. That's why it worked there, but since it still is undefined behaviour, it is still wrong!
On Linux the memory was obviously set to all-0 leading to the while() loop in initializeList() being skipped, resulting in a dereference of tempPtr->next which was set to NULL just a few lines before...
Since there're a lot of things wrong in your code, here're a few tips:

*

*Use calloc() instead of malloc(). This initializes the memory to all-0

*Do not cast the result of malloc (did this by myself for long time, but got convinced by the linked thread)

*Check the return result of all your function calls, specifically memory allocations!

*Set all pointer members of allocated structs manually to NULL

*Initialize all variables before you use them! This may include memset()ing arrays

*Read the documentation of fscanf(). Never used it by myself, but your use it not secure (buffer overflows)

*Always read the documentation of system and library functions, especially the part where it comes to error handling. Currently, you do no error handling at all.

*Ensure every use of free() makes sense. Just putting it everywhere where you think it may be wise is not a good coding practice :). Using it for file descriptors is just wrong.

*Seriously consider another language. It's sad to see so many lines of code for such a task. C has its strengths, your case does not play them at all.

The 3 Elements of Trust
Home/Leadership, Operationalize the Change/The 3 Elements of Trust
"Do you trust me?" This can be an emotionally charged question, yet it can be a tremendously constructive one, too. In our work we have found that getting clarity on the reasons why you do (or don't) trust someone is just as important as the answer itself.
Unpacking trust
As leaders, we like to listen for cues about the dynamics or strength of a team or a relationship. In a similar way, you can listen for cues about why you do – or don't – trust a person or team. Whether you're debating a strategy, debriefing after a big meeting or figuring out which tactics will get your company furthest fastest to meeting a customer need, unpacking trust to understand its components is very powerful. You can get to the root cause or move forward when you're concerned about the existing level of trust and want something better or stronger for everyone involved.
There are three main elements of trust. Being able to consider each of the elements independently takes the emotional charge out of the word, leaving room for a constructive conversation.
1. Motive.
It's probably the biggest part of most people's definition of trust. Motive is the thing that causes a person to act a certain way. In order to trust someone, I have to know that they have my best interests at heart. If I think that we are both working toward a shared goal or value, I can trust why they act the way they do, or why they might have made decisions in the manner that they did.
2. Capability.
This is all about skill – the raw, potential or established ability to do the thing that lies ahead. A person or group who has a strong motive and has my best interest at heart, must also possess the required capability. If not, they're probably not the best fit for the task at hand. A friend once said to me, "I love my mother, but I shudder to think what would happen if she did my taxes." In his story, trust based on motives – yes. On capability? Not so much.
3. Reliability.
This one's the simplest. Can I depend on you to do what you say you're going to do, show up when you say you'll show up, and be the same person day in and day out? When a person brings consistency to the table in these ways, you can count them as reliable.
In the opportunities we've had to work with teams of leaders concerning the issue, unpacking trust to reveal its three components has been very helpful.
Who do you trust?
The easiest thing to do with the three components of trust is to simply consider them individually the next time you find yourself thinking, "I'm not so sure I trust…" a person or team. We often help groups come together to in a comfortable but direct way to consider each other as members of a team, while keeping in mind the three elements.
By keeping each of these components in your pocket, you'll be able to think through the issue and move forward, instead of getting caught up in a less constructive, more emotional conversation. For example, a discussion is much more likely to end productively if it begins with, "When you said xyz in our team meeting on Tuesday, it made me question if we're on the same page about my goals" than if it starts with "Why did you say xyz?" or worse (!) "I don't think I trust you."
Next time you find yourself in the seemingly murky waters of trust, break it down into the three separate questions: Do I trust this person to have my back? Are they capable of providing the best work needed for the job? And, can I trust them to show up every day, acting in a consistent manner?
Do you see these three components at work in matters of trust?

Q: Fetching objects from database on Laravel 5.4 I'm new on Laravel php framework. What I've done with this framework is to create routing, controller and a model, then I created some records on the database (not through Laravel, I did it directly to the database) but when I try to fetch them and show it on the view I can't see nothing and I don't know if I'm not getting the objects from the database or the problem is just I'm not showing.
This is my routing:
Route::get('questions/show', 'questions\ShowQuestionsController@show');

A: You should make sure your view is located in resources/views/questions directory with name showquestions.blade.php and it should look like this:
showquestions!!!!!!!!!!!!111111!!!

@foreach ($questions as $question)

This is user {{ $question->statement }}

@endforeach

also when you have model, you should rather not use Query Builder, but in controller you should use:
public function show()
{
    $questions = \App\Question::all();
    return view('questions/showquestions', ['questions' => $questions]);

There are many things that stick out about the plot of Back to The Future, its amazing story, all the attention that is paid to every single detail and superb acting. In this all, there is one small which is just very hard to forget and that is the dehydrated Pizza Hut pizza with half green pepper and half pepperoni.
As a treat for the fans of the great movie, Pizza Hut also introduced the replica of this pizza just to put you back into the memory lanes. The Back to the Future 2 Pizza Prop is just the size of a cookie, but looks so true that you may want to take a bite. But if you do not have a dehydrator you will have to resist your urge.
Details of the Back to the Future 2 Pizza Prop are exactly similar with green pepper, cheese and pepperoni decorated in similar way as it was in the movie. Not a single detail was left untouched which makes this a perfect gift for all the movie fans. The design was designed by a professional so that each and every detail matches the original pizza which was used in the movie.

In 1946, at a time when other French colonies were just beginning to break free of French imperial control, the people of the French Antilles-the Caribbean islands of Martinique and Guadeloupe-voted to join the French nation as departments (Départments d'outre mer, or DOMs). Eschewing independence in favor of complete integration with the metropole, the people of the French Antilles affirmed their Frenchness in an important decision that would define their citizenship and shape their politics for decades to come.
For Antilleans, this novel path was the natural culmination of a centuries-long quest for recognition of their equality with the French and a means of overcoming the entrenched political and economic power of the islands' white minority. Disappointment with departmentalization quickly set in, Kristen Stromberg Childers shows in this work, as the promised equality was slow in coming and Antillean contributions to World War II went unrecognized. Champions of departmentalization such as Aimé Césaire argued that the "race-blind" Republic was far from universal and egalitarian. The French government struggled to stem unrest through economic development, tourism, and immigration to the metropole, where labor was in short supply. Antilleans fought against racial and gender stereotypes imposed on them by European French and sought to stem the tide of white metropolitan workers arriving in the Antilles. Although departmentalization has been criticized as a weak alternative to national independence, it was overwhelmingly popular among Antilleans at the time of the vote, and subsequent disappointment reflects the broken promises of assimilation more than the misguided nature of the decision.
Kristen Stromberg Childers is the author of Fathers, Families, and the State in France, 1914-1945. She teaches at the Templeton Honors College at Eastern University.


"When He Jiankui announced the birth of twin girls whose DNA he had modified when they were embryos using the CRISPR gene-editing tool, he justified his actions on the ground that he had given the two girls lifetime immunity from HIV infection. The Chinese scientist claimed that he had altered a gene called CCR5, which allows the AIDS-causing virus to infect an important class of cells in the human immune system. Not only was He ethically wrong in doing this work, but its scientific basis was even weaker than generally recognized. … Many scientific commentators, as well as He himself, quickly jumped at the idea that people without functioning CCR5 proteins cannot become HIV infected. That's not correct. … There is good evidence that the absence of functional CCR5 proteins is not completely protective against HIV. … Would a serious advance review of He's experiment have caught this issue? I can only hope so. It certainly should have if the reviewing group included expertise in HIV infection and not just in CRISPR editing. This is a crucial lesson in the importance of a probing prior review before any experiment involving human subjects and especially before any first-in-human experiment. It is also a sobering lesson … about retrospective review of such experiments. Nature is complicated, viruses are tricky, assumptions are dangerous…" (4/15).

Probation after £1,000 worth of cannabis plants found
Published: 07:05 Monday 11 April 2016
Cannabis plants valued at £1,000 were found when police searched a house in Lurgan, Craigavon Magistrates Court heard last Friday.
Radislaw Dlugosz (27), Wellington Street, Lurgan, admitted cultivating cannabis plants and unlawful possession of cannabis on June 16 last year.
The court heard that during a search of the defendant's home two cannabis plants were found in a wardrobe in a bedroom. They were worth £1,000.
Other drugs were found in the premises including a jar of cannabis in the freezer.
Dlugosz said they were for his own personal use and he never supplied drugs to any other person. A barrister representing the defendant said there was never any suggestion of supplying in this case. She added that there was only one driving offence on his record.
District Judge, Mr Mervyn Bates, said he thought that a probation order was appropriate and imposed an 18 month term.


This study compared the performance of students who earned GED credentials in Florida with that of graduates of Florida high schools, when members of both groups enrolled for the first time in fall 1992 at an urban multicultural community college in south Florida. GED's and HSD's were matched on gender, race, age range, placement levels, and enrollment in college preparatory courses (reading, English, mathematics). The paired samples t-test compared course grades, first semester GPA, and total college GPA for the groups and subgroups of matched students at a probability level of .05. The McNemar test compared how many students in each group and subgroup re-enrolled for a second and third term, or ever; how many were placed on special academic status during their college enrollment; and how many graduated within 16 semesters. Differences between groups were found only for placement on probation,- with HSD's on probation in significantly higher proportion than GED's.
Additional findings among subgroups revealed that male and Caucasian HSD subjects earned higher math grades than their GED counterparts. Male HSD's were more likely than male GED's to return to the college at some point after the first term. However, male HSD's were placed on probation in greater proportion than the GED's with whom they were matched.
Female GED's earned higher English grades and higher first semester and cumulative GPA's and returned to the college in greater proportion than their HSD counterparts. Black GED's earned higher first-semester GPA's, re-enrolled in terms 2 and 3 and graduated from the college in higher percentages than Black HDS's. Black HSD's were placed on probation in higher proportion than Black GED's. Lastly, greater percentages of HSD than GED subjects in the lowest age range (16-19) were placed on probation.
Results connected to the performance of Black GED subjects are likely to have been affected by the fact that 50% of Black study subjects had been born in Jamaica. The place of the GED in the constellation of methods for earning credit by examination is explored, future implications are discussed, and further study is recommended.

Based on a poll on the Facebook page, around 66% of people spend between R2000 and R4000 per month on fuel.
So as an average , let's make it R3000.
At 70% of that used for work (5 days a week) , this is R2100 per month.
If you cut that in half by working from home for 10 working days, that would mean R1050 in your pocket..
With school fees, stationery and Festive Season debts , R1050 would be very useful don't you think?
Plus, take out the other little 'spends' on food and snacks…Would add up quite fast!
How much time do you spend a MONTH in traffic and commuting? Just for argument's sake, let's say 3 hours per day.
So, 15 hours per week, and 60 hours per month.
That's more than a FULL WORKING WEEK spent travelling!
If you worked from home for 10 working days (2 working weeks) you would have 30 more hours!
30 HOURS! What could you do with that?
The stress of traffic and bad drivers gets to us all..
Imagine starting your day with NO driving stress!
No fighting of peak hour traffic idiots, congestion and taxis!
I think we could all have a GREAT DAY without that first thing in the morning!
We know that there are SOME businesses that simply can't do this and we have acknowledged this from the beginning.
However, if just 25% of all working people participated in the Fuel War, we could reduce congestion on the roads by 25% and make it a real pleasure for our fellow soldiers that can't participate due to the nature of their business.
This is a war of attrition , where the soldiers that fight in it, fight for everyone affected, not just themselves.
If you could work from home for 10 days to bring the petrol price down for everyone that suffers under this corruption – why wouldn't you?
The Slate Levy took your savings.
Remember the news that petrol was coming down by 20 odd cents in November? The suddenly it went from a 20c /litre drop to unchanged?
PLUS- DIESEL is going up 50c/ litre?
The content below is from SABC NEWS click here for the page.
"Government is implementing a so-called slate levy on petrol from Wednesday of 22 cents a litre amid news that the petrol price will not drop as predicted by the Automobile Association of South Africa (AA).
The Department of Energy says the Slate Account balance for diesel and petrol was negative R2.2 billion and this necessitated the levy.
The slate is the cumulative under-recovery in the petrol price for a given period.
Petrol prices will remain unchanged from midnight on Tuesday – but other fuel prices will change.
Diesel will increase by between 48 and 51 cents a litre. Illuminating paraffin will increase by 28 cents per litre and LP gas by 61 cents.
The department of energy has attributed the latest fuel price adjustments to recent appreciation in the rand against the US dollar and falling brent oil price.
Nedbank's economist Isaac Matshego says government could have used this opportunity to recover cost used to subsidise rising fuel price in September.
"It's good news for users of petrol, but for users of diesel is not good. We are seeing an increase of 50 cents/litre. But looking at this number in detail is that government is recouping the subsidy used to keep fuel prices almost flat in September." –Sabc News – 5/11/ 18.
Only one question here..have you joined the SA FUEL WAR?
How you win a war.
Wars are not won by who has more guns, more bombs or more soldiers.
Wars are won by the side that believes in Victory the most.
Throughout history, we have seen countless wars won and lost on this very premise.
Vietnam was a good example. None of the invading armies of that country believed that a smaller , under equipped force would defeat them.
They relied on their military power but lacked the critical core belief in the Victory.
The Viet Cong however, did not.
They were unrelenting in their belief in total and final victory.
Of the David defeating Goliath.
We will win not because of our strategy, but because of our belief in victory.
Because we all have finally had enough if seeing our blood and our time being guzzled by the greedy and corrupt.
In the past we have had not had any way that we could engage in resistance without putting ourselves in harm's way.
We will win because I believe that we all have found a way that we can strike back at the very heart of the Goliath that is corruption.
More than that, I believe we will win because I believe in the People of South Africa.
I have seen your courage, your compassion and your resilience.
I have experienced your core belief in a better country for us all regardless of colour, creed, race and religion.
I believe we will win because of who we are and because of who our enemy is not.
"We had 43 million people behind us." Francois Pienaar.
Why our enemy will not win..
We will win because we BELIEVE in our Victory and our enemy does not believe we can win.
Our enemy has not even considered that we could create and execute this plan.
They have NEVER considered that we could mobilise or unite as they have invested in their 'divide and conquer' strategy for so long, they cannot conceive that it could fail.
The first rule of combat is NEVER UNDERESTIMATE YOUR OPPONENT.
Our enemy believe themselves untouchable. Unreachable. Unquestionable.
And yet, we will reach out and touch them.
Our greatest strength is that we are invincible. That as long as we continue to fight, we will continue to win.
We are a ghost army. Invisible. Untouchable. Unreachable.
We are in every direction, in every corner, in every space.
We cannot be seen or heard.
When we strike, it's with speed and precision and then we melt away into the nothingness.
We will win because our enemy cannot strike back at us.
We will win because we are fighting for each other.
We will win because we are in battle for the very soul of our land.
We are impenetrable in our defence ,unwavering in our belief and committed to our Victory.

This is far too late to be any serious threat to Iran. It is really pathetic almost haphazard policy making at the last minute, especially since every government in the Persian Gulf announced during and after Bush's tour they will not let their countries be used for any attack on Iran. The only government the West-Russia have in the region willing to cooperate with them militarily is Israel.
Tehran-Ankara supported Islamic groups in the North Caucasus-Chechnya that defeated Russia in 1994-96 so they now hope Georgia's 250,000 troops can do the same further south, closer to Iran-Turkey's border. But Russia has made numerous reforms in its industry and military under President Vladimir Putin since 1999 that have enabled Moscow to defeat Islamic groups not only in Chechnya, but also in Dagestan along the Caspian. There was also the arrival of former U. S. Secretary of State Dr. Henry Kissinger in Moscow last April to co-chair the Strategic Working Group with former Russia Premier Yevgeny Primakov. At the same time, crossfirewar.com has mentioned Russia exploding conventional vacuum bombs more powerful than nuclear. Dr. Kissinger represents industrial services in the West that realize Russia is the only ally in position to guarantee access to the raw materials between the Black and Caspian Sea.
General Baluyevsky stated these current regional – international realities have forced Moscow to modify its National Security Concept, "As life is ever changing it has become necessary today to update certain provisions of the concept and what is most important, to turn these provisions into a working mechanism for protecting our national security." I suspect the Kremlin has decided to use the declaration of Kosovo's independence next month, and its support from Washington and most of the European Union (EU), to declare Moscow's support for Abkhazia – South Ossetia independence, knowing the standoff with Georgia will then become a war. Not just with Georgia but any nation supporting it.


Marietta, Ohio – The University of Findlay women's soccer team traveled south for their Great Midwest Athletic Conference (G-MAC) semifinal matchup with top seeded Ohio Valley University on Thursday, Nov. 1 and fell by a score of 4-0. With the loss, the Oilers end their 2018 campaign with an 11-4-2 record while the Fighting Scots move on to the championship game with a 15-2-3 record. Findlay's 11 wins are the most since they won 11 games 18 years ago and their two second team all-conference players are the first time since 2012 that the Oilers have had two players earn either first or second team honors.
When Ohio Valley and Findlay met two weeks ago, the teams needed double-overtime to decide a winner. In Thursday's semifinal, Ohio Valley wasted no time as they found the back of the net just six-and-a-half minutes into the contest. Seven minutes later, the Fighting Scots extended that lead to 2-0.
The Oilers managed eight shots to close out the half, including one by senior Karis Dewalt that bounced off the crossbar, but were unable to score.
Less than two minutes into the second half, OVU put the pressure on with another goal and 13 minutes after that, scored again to build a seemingly insurmountable 4-0 lead.
The Oilers outshot the Fighting Scots 22-to-19, although just four of Findlay's shots were on goal while OVU had nine.
Sophomore Samantha Church led Findlay with four shots while senior Megan Kupetz, who last night was named second team all-G-MAC, and junior Ashley Rings both had three attempts.
Junior Anna Money took the loss in the net. She played 67:37 in goal and made three saves.
Ranked outside the top ten teams in the region, the Oilers season ends at 11-4-2 while OVU, ranked eighth in the Midwest Region, moves on to Saturday's championship game looking to make their second consecutive trip to the NCAA Midwest Regional.

Grocery stores have the potential to pose a number of hazards to both customers and employees. Today's food retail environment looks nothing like their predecessors. Packed with in-store demonstrations, coffee bars, wine bars and even full-scale restaurants, retailers are now adding food safety to their list of operation concerns. There's no faster way to discredit a food retail business than to make someone sick from a foodborne illness. The health and emotional damage caused for the customer, along with the public relations disaster can pose a serious risk to your bottom line. Maintaining an environment that protects both visitors and staff helps eliminate food safety incidents, prevents costly accidents and limits liability.

The Statutory Interpretation Muddle
Richard H. Fallon, Jr.
Debates about statutory interpretation typically proceed on the assumption that statutes have linguistic meanings that we can identify in the same way that we identify the meaning of utterances in ordinary conversation. But that premise is false. We identify the meaning of conversational utterances largely based on inferences about what the speaker intended to communicate. With legislatures, as now is widely recognized, there is no unitary speaker with the sort of communicative intentions that speakers in ordinary conversation possess. One might expect this recognition to trigger abandonment of the model of conversational interpretation as a framework for interpreting statutes. Instead, interpreters invent legislative intentions—purportedly "objective" ones for textualists—or purposes. With those inventions in place, judges and theorists then carry on talking about what statutes mean, or would mean to a reasonable person, as if there were a linguistic fact of the matter even in intelligibly disputed cases. But this is a deep and systematic error.
Mainstream thinking about statutory interpretation needs a major reorientation. Contrary to widespread impressions, debates about statutory interpretation are not about what statutes mean as a matter of linguistic fact, but about which grounds for the attribution of an invented meaning would best promote judicial and governmental legitimacy. Having recognized that the model of conversational interpretation cannot ground claims about statutes' meanings in disputed cases, we also need to rethink the role of legislatures and courts in a political democracy. There are limits to what legislatures can reasonably be expected to accomplish. Courts need to play the role of helpmates to the legislature, not just faithful agents. In the interpretation of statutes, linguistic intuitions should matter, but primarily for normative reasons, involving justice and fairness in the coercive application of law, and not because they reveal the legislature's linguistically clear dictates.

6/7/11 - The Flash-Lite FR BAC 1/4 Zip from 782 Gear is a hot weather, light weight Body Armour Compatible combat shirt. It's made with flame-resistant, no melt/drip materials, and is designed with 782's CFM (Comfort Map Fit) for comfort under gear.
782 Gear is based in Fall River, MA with remote offices in WA and NOVA, and was started from the inspiration of those who put their lives on the line each day in the defense of this nation's freedom. Their products are developed for such professionals, who demand comfort and performance from their clothing and equipment. The name '782 gear' is what Marines called their individual field equipment as they had to sign for it on the standard Marine Corps Form 782, which is no longer in use. Old traditions die hard, which brings up 782 Gear's slogan: 'Tradition Meets Innovation'. 782 Gear uses the latest in materials to produce their gear, which is not surprising since 782 Gear is a division of Duro Textiles, LLC, which is one of the country's largest dyers, printers, finishers and distributors ot textile products. Duro produces all of Crye's MultiCam fabrics. Duro, in turn, is owned by Patriarch Partners LLC (Lynn Tilton's company), who is credited with turning MD Helicopters around.
Description - The Flash-Lite BAC is a light-weight combat shirt that's one of 782 Gear's Flash-Lite Baselayer Series. The Flash-Lite garments are performance-oriented FR (Flame Resistant) baselayers, and utilize Polartec® Power Dry® FR fabrics with anti-microbial protection, and cover-stitched hems and sleeves. The BAC 1/4 Zip is a long-sleeved jersey, instead of the more 'traditional' combat shirt with BDU-type sleeves and pockets.
Materials - The Flash-Lite FR BAC is made up of two fabrics, depending on the colour. For the MultiCam/Coyote one shown here, the Multicam fabric is Cyberknit 9.5 oz. jersey, which is a 71/24/5 modacrylic/FR rayon/spandex blend; and the Coyote fabric is 5.5 oz Polartec® Power Dry® FR jersey mesh. The black/black and black/coyote models have 6.5oz jersey instead of the 9.5oz MultiCam.
782 Gear uses Polartec® Power Dry® FR in the Flash-Lite Series. Polartec® Power Dry® FR is Inherently flame resistant; no melt/no drip. It has permanent moisture-wicking construction; not chemically treated. It's odor resistant, anti-microbial, highly breathable, quick-drying and moves moisture to outer layers. It has excellent stretch and recovery.
Cyberknit 9.5oz 50/50 NYCO jersey for the upper chest/back and arms.
Comfort Map Fit - off-shoulder seams, cover stitched hems, flat seams.
Thumb holes (black/black and black/coyote only - not on the MultiCam model).
Observations and notes - The FR BAC reminds me of a long-sleeved baseball shirt with raglan sleeves, except that the shoulder and sleeve material is heavier, and the torso is lighter. The Cyberknit 9.5oz jersey is practically indistinguishable (to me) from a good, medium weight 100% cotton fabric in look and feel. It's very comfortable and soft, and completely silent; with no nylon swish sound when moving. The FR BAC doesn't have any sleeve pockets or velcro, as it was designed as an ultra-light combat shirt. The MultiCam jersey fabric provides a bit more protection from scrapes than thinner t-shirt material, while the light weight 5.5 oz Polartec® Power Dry® FR jersey mesh panels under the arms keep it cooler where it's needed. I like the darker coyote colour of the Power Dry vs. the lighter coloured material of some other tops. Whe I first examined the FR BAC, the Power Dry mesh reminded me somewhat of the fabric used in the PCU L1 baselayers made by Insport. I shouldn't have been surprised, because the PCU L1 fabric was also Polartec Power Dry; only not the FR version. The FR BAC was designed for hot weather, when the user wants something more light weight and cooler than a BDU top or BDU-sleeved combat shirt, but still have more protection from sun, flame, bumps and scrapes than a t-shirt or thin baselayer.
Summer isn't here yet, so I've only had a chance to wear it in pleasant spring weather on the cool side (60's). I was actually a bit chilly in it. I wore it under the Crye JPC and Blast Belt for a range session/class. I couldn't find anything to complain about, as it's a very comfortable top under armour. I didn't notice any hot spots or chafing. The sleeves can be pulled up to the mid-fore arm and they'll stay there quite well. It definitely provides more protection for the arms than a t-shirt or regular long-sleeved light weight base layers. The elbows are unpadded, so they don't do too much for the elbows in terms of protection when shooting in the prone position on concrete or other hard surfaces, except save the skin from some abrasion. They're fine on packed dirt or sand, though. The Flash Lite BAC 1/4 Zip is worth looking into if you want a very comfortable, light weight, no melt/no drip combat top for use under armour.
Update - I had a chance to use the BAC at the range in the heat, and it works well. The Power Dry FR performs just like the non-FR version - it absorbs sweat and dries quickly.


There are a great number of genealogy websites out there. Some offer worldwide coverage, from birth marriage and deaths through census data to passenger lists and newspaper archives. Others focus on one subject or one region, with some focusing on a single town. Many are free and some are either subscription or pay as you go.
Most of these sites are free to search and to view the transcripts of the information. Some require a subscription (or link to a subscription site) to view the original record.

I'm often asked how we distribute diapers, so I made a video while I was distributing today to give an idea of how we work. Big thanks to the representatives from our partner agencies that agreed to go on camera for me!
Many of you have heard me give shout-outs to Bruce Will over the last 2 1/2 years, he was one of the first people who noticed, "got" and dedicated himself to supporting our community Diaper Bank and he's been THE go-to guy for me since the summer of '09.
Bruce not only helped secure this donation of 27,000 diapers for the Diaper Bank, he also rented a moving truck himself, picked up and delivered them! Talk about above and beyond!
Bruce is a Ford retiree who, instead of filling his time with golf or other recreational activities, has been involved with and looked for volunteering opportunities. When we met, he'd been a dedicated volunteer with a large charity and spent every Wednesday helping them downtown for the past 8 years.
When Steve described the Diaper Bank, Bruce had the lightbulb moment – the same one I had back in Tucson, Arizona, almost 12 years ago when I first learned about diaper need and what a Diaper Bank is. He told Steve he'd love to help and gave him his number to pass on to me. When I heard the story, I was touched by his reaction but honestly didn't know how I could involve him, we were still so young and just getting started.
Just a few days later, I found myself in a "double-booked" situation — I was supposed to drop diapers off somewhere in Oakland County at the same time I was due to pick up some diapers downtown. I remembered that Bruce said that he went to Detroit on Wednesdays, so I called and asked if he'd be able to help me with the pick-up. He said he'd be happy to, he seemed to love it, and everyone he was in contact with loved him too.
And a beautiful friendship was born – Bruce has done so much to help over the last few years, from picking up and dropping off donations, to securing a huge donation of diapers for us during our 2nd fall diaper drive, to helping lug and move and re-move diapers, to storing diapers and collection bins for us in his own garage, … I really don't know how we would have done what we've been able to do the last 2.5 years without him.
The Diaper Bank's growing quickly, Bruce's commitment remains strong, thankfully, and he's recently been able to dedicate even more time to us, which is beyond fantastic. So I'm thrilled to now introduce Bruce in a more formal capacity with the Detroit Area Diaper Bank, he has taken on the role of Diaper Collection Coordinator ("The Pick-Up Artist" was a title in contention at one point, but we feared it might be construed the wrong way…), and he will now take on all front-line communication and coordination for any donation pickups that need to be made across Metro Detroit. He will also be the point of contact for our donation dropoff locations and make it possible to grow the number of dropoff locations we have available.
We also want to build a network of volunteers that Bruce will be able to call upon and coordinate with as pick-up requests overlap or are in locations that are not convenient to where Bruce may be at a particular place or time. So we've started a Google Group to create an email list that Bruce and I can post to when various volunteer opportunities crop up (not limited to just donation pickups, we will also turn to the email list first when we need volunteers for events or if we need spot-help with things like sorting and re-packaging loose diapers, etc.).
Thank you, Bruce, for taking the lead on what is a major piece of our Diaper Bank puzzle – it will relieve so much off my plate in terms of where I need to split my time, and our donors, our partner agencies, and interested volunteers will all be served better for it.
Please join me in thanking and welcoming The Detroit Area Diaper Bank's new Diaper Collection Coordinator, Bruce Will!
I was chatting with Sharon Daniels from one of our recipient partner agencies the last time she came to pick up diapers and somehow during the conversation it came up that she makes her own baby wipes. Though her daughter is way past the diaper stage, she still makes them for family camping trips, to keep in the car to refresh hands, wipe things up, etc. She also said recommends the 'recipe' to families she gives diapers to and I thought that sounded like a great idea.
Inspired, I asked her for the directions so I could try them out and also share with our other partners and anyone else who might come to us that needs wipes.
Step 2: Add the baby wash and baby lotion to 2 Cups of boiling water in the container and whisk it all together. I have the Kroger brand of baby bath and the Target brand of baby lotion on hand – any can be used. If your child is allergic to perfumes and you need to use unscented, keep an eye out for mold if the wipes sit around too long. I read one article about homemade wipes that said they think that the alcohol content in the perfumed baby bath is probably what helps keep mold at bay. If you make a huge batch and don't use them quickly, make sure to keep an eye on them and throw them away if they sit too long and show signs of molding.
Step 3: Place half the roll of paper towels in the container and put the lid on, then shake. If the top pops, keep putting it back on and keep shaking. Then turn the bowl upside down and leave for a couple of hours, checking in and shaking it now and again.
Step 4: Flip bowl back over and remove the cardboard tube from the center of the roll. Pull individual towels out and you have baby wipes!
As you can see below, I tore individual sheets and laid 50 of them in an old wipes container I still have to see if I could access and use them like I used to use baby wipes when the kids were small; I also made a pile of 25, folded them in half and put them in a small ziploc to keep in my purse; and then made a pile of 40 and put them in a large ziploc bag to keep in the car or van. So counting the ones I used first to try them out, I got ~120 usable baby wipes from just that 1/2 (1/3) tube. I have the other 1/2 soaking now, and I turned it sideways into a different bowl with lid so I didn't have to cut that one down. I should get at least another 120 wipes from that 1/2 (and they'll be slightly larger than the first set), so that means I'll get ~240 baby wipes out of just one roll of paper towels and a few tablespoons of baby wash and lotion I already had on hand.
And the final test – I gave each of the boys a wipe to try — they gave them very high marks! They all thought they felt good, felt like a baby wipe and like how they smell. So that REALLY makes them a success – I highly recommend this 'recipe', will be sharing it with our partners and will make the information available on our website, hoping that anyone that comes to our site looking for help with diapers might find this useful as well.
I THANK Sharon for the inspiration and instructions. And boy, do I wish I knew about this when my kids were still in diapers!
Maggie, 86, has lived in her home in Warren for the last 35+ years and still takes care of herself. She has a son nearby who checks on her and helps her out, but the only other support she receives is Meals on Wheels. She lives entirely off of her Social Security check, which she said barely, and often doesn't, stretch the whole month.
So Maggie usually stays home. "It's not as big a deal if I have an accident around here," she says.
She keeps one diaper her neighbor gave her in a drawer, waiting for the day she has to go to her doctor appointments. Maggie was positively effusive about how fantastic the diaper was – the last one she wore "fit her like a glove", it didn't leak, it was comfortable, and she wasn't worried about having an accident. You'd think adult diapers were a brand new thing on the market, listening to her go on about them.
But to Maggie, they're a luxury. They're expensive and she can't get out easily to get them.
After reading this article in the Warren Weekly, Maggie called both the article author and me, asking about the Diaper Bank and explaining her situation. "I just thought I'd give it a try and see if this might be what could get me some help. It just seemed like such a blessing," Maggie told me.
Thanks to all of our generous donors and supporters, the Detroit Area Diaper Bank can help make sure Maggie has access to the basic hygiene items she needs to be more comfortable both at home and when she leaves the house.
Dignity. Independence. Health. Security. Confidence. Aren't those the things that everyone in their golden years deserve?
Aren't those the things we all want?
Helping wonderful neighbors like Maggie is exactly why the Detroit Area Diaper Bank exists. Maggie could not have been more touched, thrilled or grateful.
Thank you to everyone who supports us, encourages us and helps us make a difference with diapers!
The Detroit Area Diaper Bank, Inc.
CANTON, MICH. (August 1, 2011) – The Detroit Area Diaper Bank, a Canton-based nonprofit charity providing diapers for people in need in Southeast Michigan, launches its 3rd Annual Fall Diaper Drive today. The Diaper Drive's goal is to collect 200,000 diapers (or the funds to buy them) by Thanksgiving 2011.
No federal assistance programs pay for or provide diapers, not WIC, Food Stamps or Medicare. Nonprofit organizations and state agencies working with families and individuals in crisis consistently list diapers as an ongoing and TOP need.
An average infant uses up to 12 diapers per day, a toddler up to 8 per day. But in low-income households, a baby may be in a single diaper all day or longer, increasing the chance of health problems and putting the child at risk for abuse. Parents who can't afford diapers can't leave their child at daycare to go to work or school. Some children with disabilities never outgrow the need for diapers and seniors who can't afford incontinence supplies often become home-bound or end up in a nursing home.
The Detroit Area Diaper Bank exists to address this largely unknown and chronically unmet need; the Annual Fall Diaper Drive helps drive donations into the Diaper Bank so that it can fulfill more of its partner agencies' families' needs and be able to help through the holidays and start of the new year, a time when donations tend to slow down.
The Detroit Area Diaper Bank's mission is to raise awareness about the large hole in the "safety net" resulting in the unmet need for diapers in our community's most vulnerable populations — babies from low-income households, the elderly, people with disabilities — and build a network to help meet it. For more information, please visit www.detroitareadiaperbank.org.
The Detroit Area Diaper Bank was a 501c3 charity that provided diapers to nonprofit organizations in Southeast Michigan from 2009-2014. No federal assistance programs pay for or provide diapers, not WIC, Food Stamps or Medicare. Diapers are a huge hole in the "safety net" for our youngest and oldest neighbors in need. Please continue to donate and make a difference with diapers in Metro Detroit!

NOT SO MEAN STREETS
Community outreach teams vaccinate the vulnerable in Vancouver
Guy Felicella, community outreach team member
TAKING IT TO THE STREETS has a whole new meaning in the Downtown Eastside (DTES) of Vancouver these days. Teams of dedicated health care professionals are out in the streets taking the COVID-19 vaccine to the most vulnerable in the city. The results are impressive.
The Downtown Eastside is home to a large population of drug users, the poor and homeless in the city. In early March 2021, the Downtown Eastside was a COVID-19 "hotspot", with the highest rate of COVID-19 per person of any neighbourhood in Vancouver. Not any more. Not since community outreach teams started taking the COVID-19 vaccine into the street.
From the street, to the street
Guy Felicella is a member of one of those teams. Felicella is a former Downtown Eastside resident who struggled with a drug addiction. "What's amazing for me is living in that community for decades, homeless and struggling with substance use, and now I'm in the position to be able to go back to the same street corners, where I once sold and used drugs to survive, and offer people the vaccine," he explains.
"Just weeks after the vast majority of those at risk received their first doses of vaccine, we have seen a dramatic decline in the number of new cases identified in the DTES. It's taking a little bit of pressure off the community at a time when that's badly needed," adds Felicella.
To achieve this community members, like Felicella, helped set up a series of pop-up vaccine centres on the streets in the community. Appointments were not necessary.
Nurses also visited single room occupancy hotels. "If somebody had an issue and couldn't move from their room, we would go to their room and vaccinate them as well and then we'd have to wait outside the door for 15 minutes to make sure they were OK," explains Felicella.
Been there, done that too
By the end of April, community health teams had successfully vaccinated over 11,600 people. Peer support workers have had a lot to do with that success.
Peer support workers with experience of living in the community, who also have had bad experiences with the health care system, can connect with residents to eliminate their fears and doubts and encourage them to get vaccinated.
"I can relate to what's going on with people," Wendy Stevens, a peer operations coordinator and former Downtown Eastside resident, told CTV News. "I have no problem sitting on the ground in the alley,talking to someone about their concerns or helping them navigate the process."
Overdose crisis continues
The success of the COVID-19 vaccine effort against the coronaviruis is good news. The bad news is that the restrictions necessary to win the larger fight against the virus have made the drug overdose crisis in the Downtown Eastside even worse.
The restrictions imposed to combat the pandemic meant that many drug users turned to using drugs from unknown suppliers that were often contaminated. Using these contaminated drugs led to a spike in deaths among addicted drug users.
The province declared a health care emergency due to drug overdoses in 2016. 2020 was the worst year on record for lives lost to overdoses. This year is on course to be even worse.

Novel inspired by Shakespeare's son wins book prize
By Sherna Noah, PA Senior Entertainment Correspondent
A novel inspired by Shakespeare's son has won a prize voted for by booksellers.
Hamnet by Maggie O'Farrell has been named Waterstones Book of The Year.
The book is a fictional account of the life of Shakespeare's only son, Hamnet, who died from the plague aged 11 in 1596.
Author O'Farrell also set out to correct the "barefaced misogyny" in portrayals of Shakespeare's wife, Anne Hathaway.
She said: "I'm over the moon that Hamnet has been chosen as Waterstones' Book of the Year.
"It's a huge honour to be added to this list, especially as I know that the award is nominated by those most discerning of readers, booksellers.
"Without their expert guidance and knowledge, my reading shelves would be much the poorer."
Bea Carvalho, Waterstones' fiction buyer, said that "for our booksellers, Hamnet is the clear standout title – a work of immense style and emotional heft which will surely go on to be a future classic".
The novel previously scooped the Women's Prize for Fiction.
The novelist previously told the PA news agency that Shakespeare's wife had been maligned by history.
"I was outraged on behalf of the woman we know as Anne Hathaway, because I feel that she has been treated with such sort of hostility, just barefaced misogyny," she said.
Waterstones booksellers voted for the title they have most enjoyed recommending to customers over the course of the year.


Bottom LineLivedrive will over charge when it comes to basic backup. However, their Briefcase plan gives you 2TB's of sync'able storage which could be useful at $15.95/Month.
Absolutely the worst support I've ever had from a company. Avoid them.
The backup didn't work! Almost a third of the files we backed up were corrupted, resulting in a huge loss of data. I have been trying in vain to get some help from Livedrive support via their email system, Twitter and even by calling them, and 27 days since we first contacted them, they are still ignoring us.
Overall cost and unlimited data backup seems great but the support (or lack thereof) makes this not a very good value. I would spend a little more and get a product that is updated frequently and provides good support.
Livedrive has simple online backup plans for single and multiple computer users. They offers the basic online backup features which streamlines the process for those looking for an easy backup.
Livedrive is a well polished company with a great product and great service. They have design ideas that make backup easy and convenient. If you were ever worried about ease of use this company can help you.
Livedrive makes getting to your files very easy. They have several options that make life easier for the average user. Transfer your files between computers and use their briefcase to edit and share your files.
Designed for the average user, these plans supply you with everything you will need and more to stay happily backed up.
Backup Briefcase - $16.95/month - $170.53 - Unlimited backup space, Local drive on computer to drag and drop files. Edit files and sync easily with backup.


Being well acquainted with time zones and jet lag I identify with the voice here. It's all very good but the two times meeting in the middle speaks to me of effort to make the time zone valley work. And if I missed it, it spoke to me. Good job. Thanks for writing so true.
You nailed the meaning, and I am more than delighted that you did. Thank you so much!
Yes, all is experience and perception.
I cannot agree more, Ma'am! Thank you!
I love the birds, and the affection here.
Awww. Thank you so much, Sarah!
time can't keep some hearts apart – this was sweet and loved your two early's at the end – made me smile Rosie!
Love the juxtaposition of the sparrows' giggles and the crows' kraa kraa – very effective sound effects. This could be dVerse poets with our 'clock's different schemes'. I love the final stanza!
Awww. That means a lot to me, Kim! I cannot stop smiling! Thank you so much!
Oh thank youuuuu so much, love!
Yay! I am glad to know that, Diana! How have you been?
I'm good at the moment, thanks. I trust that things are great on your end.
Time zones…lovely. Early and late intersect.
Ah yes. You got it! Thank you, Mary!
I love the many implications of this – especially that despite time difference, our "early" meets.
I love this so much ..i can totally relate with the time zone difference..
Nice last stanza with the two earlies meeting in between.
Yes. If love is true, its capacity is beyond human made borders and divides. 😊 Thank you, dearie!
Early or late it's all in the perception of time or in this case time zones.
Yes. That is so true. Thank you!
I so agree with you. Wherever we are, being early or late is relative.
Yes. Indeed, Grace. Thank you!
Awww. Sissy! Another new house for you. Thank youuuu so much!
You must think I'm SO Crazy, haha–but I love you too much to not let you know where I am ❤ ❤ ❤ How are you??
I am so so so much happy when you are around. 😊😊😊 thank you so much for coming back. 😘😘😘 I am working double job now sissy. God has been good by sustaining me with strength. How about my beloved sissy?
Oh sissy. I have a looot to say to youuu. Ill try to sneak sometime today. ❤ love youuu!
As lovely as Rosema herself, well done!
Oh dear. You never know how much your revelation made me soooo hopeful. I am so happy for you! 😊 Thank you, Mish!

Add the herbs in the bottom of the pressure cooker.
Place the vegetables on top of the herbs.
Almost cover the vegetables with water.
When the pressure is up, let it cook for 40 minutes.
Turn off then and let it cool to lukewarm, without removing the pressure.
Strain the stock from the solids and put it in the fridge.
Separate the chicken meat and put that in the fridge or freezer too.
The vegetables are no good. Put them in the bin.
When a pressure cooker is used to boil the chicken, it presses the "chicken juice" out of them. That's why there ends up being a good deal of stock.
The pressure cooker is around 120°C (250°F) when it is cooking. But down at the bottom of the cooker there is a little warmer. This means that the so-called Maillard reactions may occur (browning). Therefore, a pressure cooker stock actually gets quite dark without you having to brown the meat or vegetables.
Nothing bad happens by letting the stock cool to room temperature in the pressure cooker. Normally we should worry about bacteria. But as long as the pressure cooker has not been opened, it is sterile at the inside.
If you want a stronger stock, or just more of it. Then pour the stock back into the pressure cooker and cook an additional 4 kg chicken in the same stock.
You can do that 3-4 times more. Each time the stock becomes stronger, and there will be more of it. So you do not need to reduce it like you would do with a normal stock. If possible use veal eat or bones one of the times, if you want some veal stock.

Why stop at a rose gold ring when you can have a rose gold wedding? In this gorgeous wedding shoot, the color is not just an embellishment, but the core theme of the entire styled shoot. These stunning photos were the product of photographer Chloe Dam's creativity, who said, "This styled wedding was inspired by the 'it' color rose gold. In today's culture, rose gold is on everything from cell phones to watches. We wanted to make sure rose gold had its own lane in the wedding industry as well!"
This shoot took place at Station House in St Petersburg, FL, on a beautiful day where the natural lighting perfectly accentuated the rose and metallic tones of the decor. Some of the highlights from the shoot were the classic three-tired cake with a twist of modern geometric shapes, an elegantly crafted bouquet that featured an array of roses and peonies, the bride's lovely lace mermaid dress, and the splendid sequined table set-up. "The tablescape was so romantic and fresh," said Chloe. "I adored the special touches, like the pink macarons and the rose gold dinnerware. All of the colors paired perfectly together to create a glamorous fine dining experience." Make sure to check out the photos for more rose gold details!

Trauma Survivors
Couple hit by car on Sullivan's Island beach wants to help other trauma survivors

The young couple fell asleep on the beach looking at the stars over Sullivan's Island, South Carolina.
Tia Bostic woke up a short time later in a daze with broken ribs and a lacerated spleen, wondering why part of a car was lying on the sand nearby. Her boyfriend, Nathan Fry, was unconscious and would spend the next two months in intensive care at MUSC Health with broken bones and a brain injury. They're sharing their story as the Medical University of South Carolina gets ready to mark Trauma Survivors Day on May 9. The on-campus event, organized by the MUSC Health Trauma Survivors Network, is open to the public.
Bostic remembers what happened more clearly than Fry, whose memory was affected by the injuries he suffered that night. "On October 27th of last year, Nathan and I went on a date to the Boone Hall Fright Night. When we finished there, we had planned to go back to my house and watch 'Stranger Things,' which is a show on Netflix," Bostic says. But it was a beautiful night in the Lowcountry. The beach beckoned, Bostic says. "We had the idea to go look at the stars since it was really nice outside. We really like the spot on Sullivan's Island where the lighthouse is."
They got there around ten o'clock, put a blanket on the sand and relaxed. It was quiet, beautiful, and, they believed, safe. Sullivan's Island has million-dollar homes, little crime and a beach where motorized vehicles are banned. First Fry drifted off to sleep, then Bostic. She'd set her phone alarm for midnight.
But that wasn't what woke her up. She was shocked into alertness by searing pain and the realization that something terrible had happened. She was no longer on the blanket but instead lying on the sand on her side. "There was a piece of a car next to my foot, and I began to get scared because I was by myself," Bostic remembers. "I felt like I had been beaten up by somebody. So my first thought was a group of guys had maybe come by and beat up Nathan and me and took his money and run off." She wouldn't learn until later that they'd actually been hit or run over by a car driving across the sand in the dark.
The Florida man accused of being behind the wheel said he thought he'd hit some driftwood, according to police. They arrested him that night. Bostic spotted Fry a few yards away from her, lying on his stomach in the sand. "I tried to call out to him and wake him up, but he wasn't moving at all. I was in a ton of pain, so I had to pull myself over to him. I tried shaking him awake. He still wasn't waking up. And then I moved over to where I could see his face, and his face was all battered and his shirt had cuts in it and he was gasping for air."
Horrified, Bostic found her phone and called 911. "They were there within a few minutes. They took Nathan to MUSC and then came back and got me." While Bostic was badly hurt with broken bones, a spleen injury, cuts and bruises, Fry's injuries were far worse, she says. "He had broken all of the ribs on his left side and some on his right. He had a brain injury, which I didn't find out about till later. He also sand in his lungs. They had him on a ventilator. He was in very serious condition."
MUSC Health, where both Bostic and Fry were taken, has the only Level 1 trauma center in the Charleston area. That means it's staffed 24/7 with a team that's ready to respond to life- and limb-threatening emergencies.
Surgeon Stephen Fann says that's crucial in cases where every minute matters. "No patient ever anticipates becoming a trauma victim, so we as a health care system must remain ready to respond and care for our patients."
Bostic, an elementary school teacher, was released from the hospital after 4 days. Her school gave her two months off to recover. She spent much of that time in the hospital visiting Fry, whose parents were also by his side for weeks in intensive care. That's when the reality of what a brain injury can do set in.
According to the Brain Injury Association of America, there's a range of possibilities depending on how badly the brain tissue was hurt. It can lead to a loss of consciousness, breathing problems and issues with motor functions, among other things. Fry doesn't remember most of the two months he spent at MUSC Health, but Bostic does.
"The doctors and nurses were fantastic. They were all very informative and helpful. They'd sit with us, probably more than they needed to, just answering questions for us." Fry was moved to a rehabilitation center in Atlanta, then outpatient therapy in Greenville, where his parents live. As his body, healed his mind did as well, he says. His short-term memory loss eased. "When the injury first happened, I couldn't remember from one hour to the next. It's a lot better now."
The normally healthy young man also dealt with the strangeness of being a trauma patient. "That was weird to me for a while. I was like, here I am going through recovery from a really terrible accident and everyone around me is living their life like normal. It's a big thing happening, a life-altering event, but nobody around me notices at all. They don't know. How would they?"
These days, Fry is back at work in Charleston, where he's an electronics engineer for the Navy. He and Bostic are engaged to be married and want to use their experience to help others through the MUSC Health Trauma Survivors Network.
"Any way we can interact with either the patients or the patients' families, people in the ICU," Fry says. "We know that they really need it. We're going to share our testimony and what happened to us. Maybe we can share that with people who are currently in a really tough situation. Just encourage them any way we can." The couple may also try to deliver food to families on Sundays and supply them with comfort items such as blankets and pillows. As for the man accused of running into or over them, Bostic and Fry will be involved with his court case but are not bitter. "We're trying to be as forgiving as possible," Fry says.
"During the recovery process I decided not to think of him and focus on recovery and getting better. We'd like to be as forgiving as possible toward him. I don't know how we'll react when we see him in court."
