Terps have a lot in common. Memories of late nights on Baltimore Avenue. Spring afternoons on McKeldin Mall. Crazy offerings to Testudo before finals.
Yet each generation of Terps is different in its own way. That means we, as your Alumni Association, have a duty to offer distinct programming for the varied life stages of more than 369,000 alumni.
In the last issue of Terp, we highlighted professional networks and development opportunities aimed at mid- and late-career Terps. We've also continued our tried-and-true programming for more seasoned alumni, like our annual Golden Terps 50th Reunion.
Now, I'm happy to introduce our GOLD (Graduates Of the Last Decade) program to reach another important segment of our alumni base. We hope to turn recent grads' love for Maryland into a lifelong connection.
Read more about the GOLD program in the story below. Recent grads, we can't wait to connect with you!
For all Terps, we are in the midst of Fearless Ideas: The Campaign for Maryland. This means we are going on the road to bring Fearless Ideas to you! So far, university leadership has visited Boston, Alexandria, Va., and Montgomery County, Md., to showcase all that the University of Maryland has to offer, from state-of-the-art research to the impact of Doing Good on the community.
I've had the privilege of being part of these events and experiencing firsthand the Terp pride around the country. Next, we're heading to Atlanta; Howard County, Md.; and Broward County, Fla.
I hope to see you there. It's an exciting time to be a Terp!
After graduating from Maryland, Tessa Trach '17 had to start over, with a new job in a new city. No longer were friends just a few steps down the hall, and she was anxious about the lack of community. Then she found the University of Maryland Alumni Association.
Recent graduates like Trach can strengthen their ties to their alma mater through the new Graduates Of the Last Decade (GOLD) program, launching in January and featuring exclusive events and communications.
"As alumni, we already have that Terp connection, so it's an easy way to make friends and build community," Trach said after attending recent Alumni Association events in Baltimore, including a tour of Union Craft Brewing at the new Union Collective and a NetWorkout event (networking with a workout component) at the Bar Method. Experiential events like these are targeted directly at recent graduates.
The impetus to develop GOLD programming comes from a historic lack of attention given to recent grads of universities nationwide. According to a recent Voluntary Alumni Engagement in Support of Education study, 85 percent of alumni organizations report they "do a poor job" or "need to do more" to attract and engage young alumni.
Trach hopes that the launch of GOLD will inspire more recent graduates to attend events and get involved with the university.
Hundreds of Terps from across the nation gathered at the Samuel Riggs IV Alumni Center to mingle with alumni, friends and fans for the annual Alumni Association Homecoming Tailgate on Oct. 13 before heading to the game. Attendees enjoyed a beer and wine garden featuring Terp-produced beverages, family-friendly activities and camaraderie.
Olufemi Sonde '04 and Mariam Sonde '02 brought their future Terps for some fun with Testudo.
Kyna Powell '99 found her newly engraved name on the Frann G. & Eric S. Francis Lifetime Member Wall.
Students shared what inspires their Maryland pride before the Terps beat Rutgers in the football game.


Ithaca College can be found in Ithaca, NY, a nonprofit private college which focuses on only a select few programs offered. Ithaca College has an enrollment of over seven thousand students.
Approximately 70% of all applicant were admitted at Ithaca College, and from those that were granted acceptance about 17% continued on to attend. You can get more information from the admissions office website at ithaca.edu.
The overall acceptance rate for Ithaca College was reported as 66.6% in Fall 2013 with over 15,700 college applications submitted to IC. Both in state and out of state applicants are included in these figures. We do not have data on transfer acceptance rates currently.
The historical trend chart shows acceptance rates from the previous years, from which we have projected the acceptance rate for the 2019-2020 school year. The overall acceptance rate trend for Ithaca College has been getting lower when compared to averages from previous years.
The acceptance rate for Ithaca College is twenty percent higher than the national average of all colleges which is around 55.5%.


Applying sequential choice on voting and election is a means of solving a classic formal logic problem, i.e. how to elect one person among more than two alternatives. The book provides an answer to Coleman's vision of political money (political science, economics). The book reviews Arrow's work on group choice (economics). The book introduces fund voting for budgeting and project planning, land and urban planning, as well as for resources utilization (economics, public administration science, environmental science, resources economics) The application of sequential choice and fund voting is examined under that perspective of sociology, which concerns the assumption that societies owe their existence to common tasks, and likewise, under the main theme of anthropology, i.e. what generates human society and keeps it going.


Have you ever felt like needing more breaks at the office? Sometimes, the day has not even started yet you feel as if all you want is to be out of the workplace. This is not a good state to be in because you end up not becoming a productive member of the group. You might also feel like no amount of vacation leaves can change how you feel about your office. If you feel this way about your office even when you love the work you do, something might not be right inside.
Most of the time, the design of an office interior is dependent on the building. When poorly planned, office spaces can become drab and suffocating. Without proper ventilation, you may find yourself having difficulty breathing or feeling uneasy with the temperature. While you cannot simply work on changing the structure of the office space, you can introduce a solution. Allbrite Services Ltd and other experts noted that getting an office plant hire can help fix the air when your workplace is too enclosed.
Office work may require you to live a sedentary lifestyle. For hours, you may need to stay in the same place and work tirelessly in front of your computer. While you may not move so much, it can be tiring for your eyes. Issues with your eyes at work may require you to take a nap or simply a break from computer screens. Experts have found out that looking at something green can help refresh your eyes. What better way to help your eyes than to have plants that naturally produce the color you need?
Recommend having office plants at your next meeting. It is not only good for the environment, but for the workplace as well.

The Faulty Assumption Behind 3 Scary Charts
A belief in steady and predictable mean reversion has cost investors a lot of money this cycle.
The problem with applying mean reversion to investing is that market averages are not written in stone.
Here are three examples:
CAPE Ratio
If there was a contest for the chart that's spooked the most investors since 2009, I'm confident this would win:
CAPE data from multpl. Long-term average is since 1900.
The S&P 500 has traded above its historical CAPE average 97% of the time since the last recession. A strategy that avoids stocks when valuations are above average would have exited the market in May 2009. A model that only invested 3% of the time during the longest U.S. bull market isn't temporarily wrong – it's broken.
CAPE seemed elevated in 1992 when it was 20 and the average was 14. Nobody knew the average CAPE since then would be 27.
The danger with strict mean reversion models is that the mean always changes:
CAPE data from multpl.
There are three potential reasons for higher stock valuations:
Markets are cheaper to access. In 50 years we went from steep trading costs to essentially free global investing. You can wake up and buy $1 million of international stocks then sell after lunch if you change your mind.
We know more about long-term returns. An investor in 1920 was flying blind and had no historical precedent for long-term stock and bond returns. Modern investors have more data about what works (and what doesn't).
Diversification is more convenient. Rather than spend time building a portfolio of individual stocks or bonds, modern investors can instantly diversify between thousands of securities in a single fund.
It's reasonable to pay a higher valuation for the above luxuries.
That said, I doubt they're free lunches and expect we'll pay for them through lower future returns.
Economic Cycle Length
The current U.S. economic expansion is now the longest ever:
Source: Statista
As soon as it eclipsed the historical average people were calling for mean reversion:
Like with CAPE, the mean has shifted over time. The average expansion from 1854 to 1919 lasted two years while the past four expansions have averaged eight years. One reason why cycles have grown longer is that the U.S. economy has become more diversified. Manufacturing and agriculture no longer make up the majority of the U.S. economy.
The length of this cycle is unprecedented in the U.S. but other countries have experienced far longer expansions. Economies aren't clocks that follow a predictable pattern and expansions don't end because they reach a certain age.
Return Expectations
Mean reverting frameworks are used to forecast returns and GMO's are some of the most popular.
Here's what they predicted in 2010:
Source: GMO
What actually happened:
Return data is adjusted for inflation since GMO's forecasts were for inflation-adjusted returns. Data from Portfolio Visualizer. ETFs used are SPY, IWM, VEA, VSS, VWO, BND, IGOV, LEMB, TIP, and SHV. Includes distribution reinvestment. Returns shown are hypothetical, simulated, and not an indicator of future results.
To his credit, Jeremy Grantham has since said:
"The market was extremely well-behaved from 1935 until 2000. The market outperformed when it was it cheap, and when it got expensive, it cracked. Since 2000, it's become much more complicated. The rules have shifted. We used to say that this time is never different. I think what has happened from 2000 until today is a challenge to that."
Jeremy Grantham
Valuations matter, but they're overused to give a sense of false precision about what the future will hold.
"Much of what we know about investing comes from U.S. data in the 20th century. And when you take the most mean-reverting, stable market of all time, all kinds of mean reversion are going to work for you. My concern is that maybe we're taking rules that were developed for the most mean-reverting, stable market of all time and trying to apply them in a new world order where markets might be reverting, but we don't know to what."
Mean reversion can take eons and isn't powerful enough to guarantee a predictable investing outcome.

Keiji Inafune, mastermind of the Mega Man games, has spoken out about his successful Kickstarter game Mighty No. 9 and says that he plans to 'betray the fans in a good way'.
Who knows what Inafune means by this but I know it has already got some fans and backers worried. It's hard to imagine how you can betray someone is a good way, hopefully he means Mighty No. 9 has some big surprises in store that will make it even better than some people hope. I can't wait to see some actual gameplay from the game, I have a feeling that Mighty No. 9 will be amazing, hopefully Inafune can pull it off!
What do you think he means he means by this? Are you looking forward to Mighty No. 9? Please let me know in the comments!


Debate in the Iowa House was suspended this afternoon, after a threatening letter to Rep. Ako Abdul-Samad was opened, at his desk on the House floor.
The letter contained a white substance. At this hour a U.S. Postal Inspector is en route to the state capitol to conduct a "field test" of the substance.
Abdul-Samad is in a make-shift "containment area" – the entryway into the House which has swinging doors leading into the House floor and another set of swinging doors about 10 feet away, leading to the rotunda of the statehouse.
House Speaker Kraig Paulsen says at this point, an evacuation is not recommended.
The House had been debating a bill that would ban traffic enforcement cameras in Iowa when debate was suspended at about a quarter 'til four this afternoon. About an hour later a Haz-Mat team arrived at the statehouse, along with an ambulance.
Early last week Abdul-Samad gave a floor speech in the House, wearing a "hoodie" to symbolize his solidarity with those raising questions about the high-profile Trayvon Martin case in Florida. Abdul-Samad is one of five African-Americans who serve in the Iowa House.


So, I've built the controller. The design was pretty simple. Using an ATTiny24A, I'd monitor the voltages of the battery and two power inputs, and code would decide which input to use, if any. It also could use the in-built temperature sensor to control cooling fans. This is the schematic I knocked up this morning.
The values of most resistors are not critical. I found I needed 1kOhm resistors into the bases of the transistors as the MCU was not happy driving them directly. The transistors I'm using are BC547Bs controlling AUIRF4905 MOSFETs.
The only components that are critical are the voltage dividers on the ADC inputs. I'll be using the built-in 1.1V reference in the MCU as that's what's needed for the temperature sensor anyway.
This was a bit of an exercise in reviving old brain cells as it's been some time since I've done a proper PCB myself. This is a one-off prototype with mostly larger components, so no point in getting boards fabricated. I did it the old fashioned way, using a dalo pen then etching in a bath of Ferric Chloride.
That gives you an idea of what the board looked like prior to population. The underside was covered with tape to prevent it from being etched. It took a while, and I think I could have upped the concentration of the solution a bit, since it did leave some tracks un-etched.
Perhaps my solution is getting a little old too… the logo on the bottle really dates it. I found I had to attack the gaps between some tracks with a knife since the etchant didn't quite get it all.
There are no tracks on the bottom, it's just one piece of un-etched copper, to act as a ground plane. I guess the construction style is a cross between Manhattan and groundplane (dead-bug) construction. The constructed board looks like this.
I'm not sure what all the LEDs will be doing at this point. Three share pins with the ICSP header, which means they flash as the board is being programmed… useful for troubleshooting ICSP issues. The IC socket is a cheap 14-pin one, I just bent the pins to mount it flush to the board. The 10uF tantalum on the output of the 5V PSU is possibly a 10V one. Where the electrolytic is, is where I had the 330uF tantalum mounted, and it went bang when I gave it 12V.
That seems to prove the hardware is alive, and now I just have to get the software working. Now to try out the toolchain I built!

Aston Villa Blog
A blog. About Aston Villa.
It's hard to tell if Villa have started well or badly this season
August 27, 2018 by crippycooke
Filed under: Aston Villa
Aston Villa are currently fourth in the Championship, unbeaten with nine points from five games this season, but supporters aren't sure if they're doing well or slightly underachieving.
Being in a playoff spot so early into the campaign is certainly good, but Villa's unbeaten start glosses over a three-match win that they've failed to win. Steve Bruce's men last tasted victory on August 11 with a 3-2 win over Wigan.
6/8/18 (Championship) Hull City 1-3 Aston Villa
11/8/18 (Championship) Aston Villa 3-2 Wigan Athletic
14/8/18 (League Cup) Yeovil Town 0-1 Aston Villa
18/8/18 (Championship) Ipswich Town 1-1 Aston Villa
22/8/18 (Championship) Aston Villa 2-2 Brentford
25/8/18 (Championship) Aston Villa 1-1 Reading
Manager Steve Bruce isn't satisfied with nine points from a possible 15 and admitted in a post-match interview that Villa should be doing a little better. To have dropped points at home to Brentford and Reading is disappointing and was the reason why Villa had to settle for a playoff place, rather than be in the mix for an automatic promotion spot.
As per the Birmingham Mail, Bruce said: "Unfortunately, we have had a decent start but a few mistakes have cost us dearly. We could have been four points better off but individual errors, which is the one thing you can't legislate for, have cost us. We should have been in front and away, but we weren't. We remain unbeaten but we're disappointed. It could have been a really wonderful start."
He's not wrong. Back-to-back wins over Hull and Wigan had fans daring to believe again after a woeful summer of uncertainty, but Villa then couldn't break down 10-man Ipswich at Portman Road and had to rescue a late point to Brentford. Reading scored late to earn a draw against them on the weekend.
Villa are only four points off the automatic promotion places with 41 more games to play, but home matches against supposedly weaker opponents has to become their bread and butter victories. They can't keep falling short in games they're big favourites in otherwise the Villans will continue to lose ground on the frontrunners.
Villa's home form has been a worry in recent months. Bruce's men have dropped points in five of their last six league games at Villa Park. An unbeaten start to the new season sounds good but being three games without a win sounds bad. There's plenty of room for improvement, so at least Bruce has acknowledged that and hasn't defended results by using Villa's high league position.

With its tropical and Caribbean backdrop, this slot game taps into your inner pirate dreams. The colourful and seafaring-related symbols are stocked in a 3×5 playing grid. While playing this online game from Playtech, you will get wilds, scatter bonus, and instant wins of up to 5,000.00 credits.
Just like other online slots from Playtech, Captain's Treasure is available on mobile and in free play as well.
If you play Captain's Treasure online for the first time, you will instantly notice its difference compared with other traditional Playtech games. Wins here can start as soon as two identical symbols are shown on the reels, and this is applicable for the four-high-paying symbols like maps, anchor, and swords. In fact, just by hitting one sword symbol, you can earn an instant win worth 2.00 credits.
To start this casino game, simply choose the preferred coin size that ranges from 0.01 to 5.00 credits. To increase the wager, simply press the Bet One option or the Bet Max to maximize your chances of winning prizes. To fully understand the Captain's Treasure gameplay, it's best to check the paytable and see the assignment of prizes based on the winning combinations. Some of the symbols that can bring in the prizes are the pirates, gold, and treasure chests. Adding up to the excitement of this online slot is its lottery side game feature which allows players to choose 5 numbers out of 49. Behind these numbers are icons that once hit on the reels, can deliver the wins.
A win can be collected once 2 or more identical symbols are formed.
The Captain works as the wild and can replace other symbols on the screen to create winning combinations.
The Treasure Chest serves as the scatter, and payouts can be earned if 2 to 5 identical symbols are shown.
In the Dollar Ball, players will pick 5 numbers from a lot of numbers. Numbers will be drawn, and the prizes will depend on how many numbers are matched.
There are special symbols to watch out in Captain's Treasure, and these are accompanied by nice prizes.
The wild symbol in this slot is the Captain icon which can substitute for all symbols on the reels. To win multiple prizes, players need to land on wilds on the second, third and fourth reels.
Captain's Treasure also features scatter symbols like the Treasure Chest giving players surprising prizes. Perhaps the biggest extra is the Dollar Ball, a side game that resembles a lottery draw.
Playing this Playtech online slot is more rewarding if you bet and play side games. For maximum winnings, take the chance by locking in your maximum bets with Captain's Treasure. You also need to enable the Dollar Ball to enjoy the lottery-inspired side game when playing on mobile.

Conservancy raises $1.6M needed to save Mossy Point, forest with old-growth trees
By Mark Sommer
Published Fri, Jan 3, 2020

A 222-acre forest with old-growth trees in Wales has been saved from potential logging and subdivisions.
Mossy Point will become a nature preserve.
The Western New York Land Conservancy, working with Friends of Mossy Point, announced Thursday that it had raised the $1.6 million it needed to buy the land before a Dec. 31 deadline.
"This campaign was a tremendous effort by everyone involved," said Nancy Smith, the conservancy's executive director. "[We] came together to make this dream a reality. Since the Great Lakes contain almost a quarter of the world's surface fresh water, it is so inspiring to protect a forest that enhances the quality of the fresh water we all rely on."
As a headwater forest, the land naturally filters water from the Niagara River and helps prevent flooding in communities downstream.
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation played a significant role in the early stages of the campaign by providing a $655,000 water quality improvement grant. Three donations totaling $250,000 from private individuals, plus a $100,000 donation from the Gallogly Family Foundation, were other key contributions that helped secure the forest as the deadline drew near.
"Protecting a large, contiguous tract of unspoiled forest like Mossy Point is critical to preserving water quality, including here at the headwaters of the Niagara River," said Basil Seggos, the DEC's commissioner. "This land is home to vital wildlife habitat, including ancient and rare fern species, and a stopping place for migratory songbirds."
Last summer the DEC said the loss of natural landscapes like Mossy Point can lead to polluted runoff, sedimentation, higher stormwater surges and reduced stream baseflow and aquifer recharge.

Old-growth patches include stands of hemlocks, white pine and hickory trees. Ferns, milkweed, red oaks, sugar maples, birch trees and cucumber magnolia trees also grow on the property.
Migratory birds use the deep woods to nest, including the Venezuelan water thrush, great crested flycatcher and the blackburnian warbler. Six of Western New York's seven woodpecker species can be found in Mossy Point, along with foxes and black bears.

She went to a Bills game and left without 53 years of memories.
The forest includes shale-bedded Hunters Creek, rich with crayfish and ecologically diverse upland woodland areas.
The property's acquisition is expected to be completed in the spring.
The newly protected land and the adjacent 131-acre Kenneglenn Nature Preserve and 760-acre Hunters Creek County Park form a 1,113-acre protected area, one of the largest patches of protected forests in the Niagara River watershed.
The conservancy plans to build a trail for walking, cross-country and snowshoe hikes at Mossy Point. It is also considering a year-round trail system connecting the areas.
Last summer, the conservancy made a public appeal for financial help, calling the forest "awesome" but also "threatened" if the fundraising effort did not succeed.
"Subdivisions, logged, lost. You'll never be able to come here," Jajean Rose-Burney, the land conservancy's deputy executive director, told The Buffalo News last June. "The forest will disappear.
"It will be logged. It will be developed. That's just the future of places like this if it's not protected."
With Mossy Point, the conservancy has protected more than 6,700 acres in Western New York.

Q: Is there a way to position the NavMesh collider Is there a way to reposition the NavMesh Collider? The only option I'm seeing is BaseOffset but that only repositions vertically.

A: Ended up finding a way to correct this for models that are not centered correctly when you import them. In the ProBuilder Menu select the model. Then select Freeze Transform. Reposition your model and then in the ProBuilder Menu click Center Pivot.
Now it's positioned correctly in the game world to sit right in side of the Agent Collider.

A: Create an Empty Game Object and add NavMeshAgent component.
Then put your player Object on this Empty Game Object (it will be the parent of your player).
You can now move de player collider independently of the NavMesh collider.
You can also do the reverse to move the NavMesh collider independently of the player collider.
I don't really know if that answers your question but at least I hope it can help you ! ^^'

Infosys Joins Global Leaders at Annual Customer Forum to Drive Global Outsourcing Agenda
Milan 2003: More Companies Report Outsourcing Drives Business Value and Innovation, Than Cuts Costs
Fremont, Calif. - September 15, 2003
To create a forum for customers, partners and industry thought leaders to focus on innovation and progress, Infosys hosted its ninth annual Milan last week in Dana Point, Calif. This year's Milan - sanskrit for "meeting of minds" - addressed today's most critical business initiatives and solutions, and the expert global sourcing approaches that are helping businesses prosper in the burgeoning global marketplace.
"A few select ESPs have matured to the point of holding client events at the level achieved by Infosys" said Frances Karamouzis, Research Analyst, Gartner. "Their recent customer event [Milan] attracted more than 250 attendees. Beyond the number of attendees, the caliber of attendees was impressive."
Over one hundred North American corporations were represented at Milan, 90% of which are generating revenues over $1 billion. Infosys led sessions examining the fundamental paradigms of global delivery to bring higher value to attendees.
"Offshore outsourcing is shifting from 'better, faster, cheaper' to 'better, faster, more,'" said Dean Davison, Research Analyst, META. "While the shift is primarily rhetoric today, clients are reacting positively to future strategies to use offshore outsourcing to get more: more quality, more projects, more innovation, more alignment with business. The shift reflects a more fundamental change in IT organization priorities from leveraging offshore as a cost-cutting initiative to leveraging global resources, usually via offshore outsourcing."
"Global sourcing is adding substantial value to businesses around the globe," said Nandan M. Nilekani, President and CEO, Infosys. "From the retail sector, to the manufacturing sector, to the financial services sector, companies are automating tasks, reducing costs, offering new revenue- producing services and setting themselves apart from the competition."
To help attendees discover how to take best practices and forward-thinking concepts from Milan, and implement these concepts into their own enterprises, Infosys conducted multiple real-time surveys; the responses to these surveys echo the mainstream adoption of the global delivery model and the value realized by Infosys' clients from global sourcing:
Widespread increase in the use of outsourcing during 2004. As many as 89% respondents expected their outsourcing to increase during 2004, with over 50% expecting a significant increase by more than 10%.
Best-of-breed model for outsourcing gaining favor. A significant majority (81%) of the respondents preferred to use a best-of-breed approach to selecting outsourcing providers.
Utilize offshoring as a key business strategy in 2004. Nearly two-thirds (64%) of the respondents, up from 48% in 2002, indicated that they plan to increase to use of offshore outsourcing as a chosen strategy. A further 20% of respondents expect their use of offshore outsourcing to increase, even though it was a not strategic thrust to do so.

SEATTLE, Wash. – Ensuring the right coverage is in place is the first step in protecting your family and your home – creating a home inventory list is the next step. Making a thorough list of your personal property before something happens will make things that much easier in the event you end up needing to file a claim.
Several of our insurance partners recently shared some great resources and helpful tips for how to start the home inventory process. Mutual of Enumclaw created the video below. In this 2-minute clip, the carrier shares what items and information to include in your inventory list, as well as the importance of taking photos and/or video of your belongings. The Insurance Information Institute offers free online home inventory software and an app for this exact process. The program is designed to make creating and updating your home inventory list quick and easy.
Safeco Insurance also recently shared news of the release of its 'Home Inventory App'. The app is available for free download for all iPhone and iPad users – and you don't have to be a Safeco client. With the app you can take photos of your belongings, add details - including purchase price, and put each item into a specific category.
Whether it's one of these apps or another, having a detailed home inventory list, with photos, from the start will help make the entire claims process easier in the end.


But first, lets talk a bit about the holidays. Of course, we all love the holiday parties, delicious food, festive cocktails, and spending time with the ones we love. However all that holiday "cheer" can leave us feeling a little "hungover" and just not quite our usual selves. Please read on to find out how get back to feeling great!
Set Realistic and Sustainable Goals - By setting small, attainable goals, you are more likely to succeed and stay motivated than if you only focus on the outcome. Taking small steps such as the ones outlined here will set you up for long term success. High, lofty goals are more likely to be unsustainable and will discourage you from staying on track. For example, instead of saying "I'm not going out at all this week!" (probably not realistic) make a goal to prep your meals for the week or make a protein packed breakfast in the mornings (sustainable and realistic).
Focus on Clean Eating - Keep your meals simple and clean. Processed and "fast" foods are out. Choose instead more lean protein, fresh veggies, nuts, seeds and whole grains. Shift your focus away from the foods you want to avoid, and focus on ways to incorporating more of the good stuff in.
Get Moving! - Movement will make you feel better both physically and mentally by releasing endorphins, those feel good chemicals that boost your mood. Not only that, but getting a good old sweat on will help you detox from the holidays that much faster! Not motivated? Start small and, as the Nike saying goes, Just Do It! Try a morning walk while listening to your fave podcast, a bike ride with your kids, or a group exercise class with us at Balance!
Drink Up - Try to drink at least 2 to 3 liters of filtered water a day. Try starting the day with a glass of filtered water with fresh squeezed lemon juice. This will kick start your metabolism, promote detoxification and get you feeling really great! Then, make it a habit to keep a glass or bottle of filtered water with you to sip on at all times during the day.
Get Your Zzzz's - Rest is definitely a must if you want to look and feel your best. Make sure you get plenty of zzz's to speed up recovery from your workouts, and to promote muscle tissue repair. Lack of adequate sleep is kown to also elevate cortisol levels which in turn, promotes fat storage especially around the abdomen.
Rock your Meal Prep - Try setting aside a bit of time to shop and prepare some simple and nourishing basics that can be made into quick meals that will last in your refrigerator or freezer for a few days. You'll save time & money, and you'll be less likely to reach for not-so-healthy convenience foods that are usually packed with empty calories and nasty chemicals.

WILLISTON, VT (March 26, 2019) – Land that hosts a beloved recreational destination is now New England's newest community forest, thanks to grant support from the Open Space Institute (OSI) through its Community Forest Fund. The project, which was led by The Trust for Public Land (TPL) in partnership with the Town of Williston, protects the forest that is a major economic driver in this fast-growing Vermont community.
In addition to the protection of critical wetlands and forests, the land lies at the center of a 660-acre corridor of public and private conservation land — the largest core forest block in the Town of Williston, the fastest-growing town in Chittenden County. Vermont Land Trust and the Vermont Housing and Conservation Board now jointly hold a conservation easement that permanently protects the 392-acre property.
OSI's Community Forest Fund, which enables the creation and expansion of community forests in Northern New England, provided support and capital funding to the project. In the Community Forest model, local citizens participate in the planning and management of forests, ensuring that everyone benefits from the land's many economic, social, and ecological values.
Young cyclists enjoy the Catamount Community Forest.
Over the last year, the OSI Community Forest has provided critical capital funding to enable two other Vermont towns – Richmond and Newbury – to conserve Community Forests. In addition, the Fund has recently provided start-up grants to efforts in Sebago, ME, Lancaster, NH, and Chester, VT, to help these developing citizen-driven projects get off the ground.
The nonprofit Catamount Outdoor Family Center (COFC), a recreation destination located on the property, will manage the Community Forest for mountain biking, Nordic skiing, and other year-round public access. TPL commissioned an economic study that found that 20 miles of COFC trails secures over $875,000 in visitor spending and creates 14 jobs.
Visited by over 20,000 neighbors and visitors every year, COFC was founded as a cross country ski center in 1978 and has grown to include summer activities such as mountain biking and hiking. It also hosts numerous events, such as weekly races, an extensive summer camp program that annually serves over 400 campers, and Special Olympics practice.
In addition to OSI, the $1.9M project was funded by the federal Community Forest Program, the Vermont Housing and Conservation Board, the Town of Williston, The Nature Conservancy, and more than 200 private individuals, foundations and corporations. The project also received funds from the federal Land and Water Conservation Fund.

WINDOW ROCK, Ariz. (AP) – Roy Hawthorne recalls his time served during World War II with pride, effortlessly sharing his native Navajo language as he shows off how he used codes to trick the Japanese.
The 89-year-old Hawthorne served as a Navajo code talker with the U.S. Marine Corps from 1943 to 1945, hopping from island to island across the South Pacific as U.S. troops fought their way toward Japan.
He recalled his service during an interview in Window Rock, Arizona, before the nation paused to commemorate Veterans Day.
Hawthorne was one of several hundred code talkers who joined the war effort to help stymie the Japanese by using Navajo words and letters transmitted over radios instead of traditional codes that the enemy continued to crack.
Officials credit the Navajo for playing a hugely vital role in combat along with some other tribes that used their native languages during wartime.

I once lived in a share house with 5 others and one day I noticed that all six of us were home speaking on iMessage from our bedrooms. Tech is great for bringing people together from the other side of the world but when you won't leave your own room to have a face to face conversation then it's all gone just a little bit too far.
How many of you rush home to talk all night on iMessage, Whatsap, Snapchat, Instagram etc. Why not go grab a coffee instead or if you can't do that, ring and actually speak to your friends. Start using those unlimited minutes and save on your data.
Talking to each other isn't just about saving data. The reason online chatting is so good is that you can be doing something else while you are texting, typing or snapping. That's also part of the problem. When we care about people then we should give them a little bit of our time where they have our undivided attention. That's just good manners isn't it? How many of you think it's rude when your trying to talk to someone and they pick up their phone and start texting?
We need to relearn how to sit and have a conversation in the moment with the people we care about without allowing that feeling of social media FOMO to take over. That status update your best mate posted about his lunch isn't going anywhere and if you care that much about what he's having for lunch then go out for lunch with him!
When my friends and I go for dinner we put our phones on the table. The first person to pick up their phone pays the bill.
There is always a place for anonymity especially in our community but we constantly complain that the clubs and bars are being ruined by Grindr and online dating. Be the change! Go out and start talking to people again. Getting rejected in person is tough and chat apps offer a safe place for many of us to talk to others but confidence comes from the knowledge that you can handle yourself in uncomfortable situations.
Put away the app and talk. You will be surprised how easy it is.

Shannon, good advice I'd love to chat with you in person next time your home. Just to chat about anything would be nice.

Some stakeholders in the textile and clothing industry have described Fashionomics Africa as a veritable platform to tap Africa's huge potential for fashion
They spoke ahead of World Fashion Day, a day marked yearly on 21 August to celebrate and commemorate the glory, spirit, and art of fashion throughout the world, and to highlight national, regional and international achievements in the fashion world over the past year.
Through Fashionomics Africa, the African Development Bank (AfDB) aims to support the growth of the African textile and fashion sectors through a focus on building the capacities of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) in the textile and clothing sector, especially for women and youth.
"This is a platform through which we are able to actually tap into manufacturers, into creatives, other designers that we would like to collaborate with, or even just merely fabric manufacturers that could actually assist us in the growth of our brands. Currently Fashionomics Africa has linked us to a USA-based company that will assist us in selling our luxury products online. We are ever grateful for this introduction," said Shaldon Kopman, Designer and Creative Director of Naked Ape, a South Africa-based fashion label.
The stakeholders highlighted how AfDB has taken the lead in promoting investments in textile and fashion sector, increasing access to finance for entrepreneurs and incubating and accelerating start-ups.
"Fashionomics Africa is the only platform that takes into consideration African designers and therefore understands their economic impact on the continent. What an amazing feeling to know that we, African designers, count," said Senegalese Designer Safiétou Seck.
Seck, who owns the brand 'SARAYAA' (a multi-ethnic, high-end clothing brand for women), stressed how the platform has helped to expand her network and gave her further exposure and awareness.
She called on African governments to recognize the continent's competitive and comparative advantage with the creative industries and highlighted how this could be transformed into economic benefit.
Fikirte Addis, Founder, Yefikirt Design, said, "With the right training, with the right organization, Africa can produce a lot of the things within Africa and using a lot of the human resources that we have."
As part of its Fashionomics Africa initiative, the AfDB and other multilateral development banks such as the Inter-American Development Bank, Asian Development Bank, Caribbean Development Bank and World Bank, organized the first MDB working group on cultural and creative industries this year.
The two-day event was hosted by the Inter-American Development Bank (IADB) in Washington, DC, on July 13-14, and aimed to leverage the potential of the cultural and creative economy
Fashionomics Africa (the economics of fashion) is an initiative of the AfDB to increase Africa's participation in the global textile industry supply chain.
In addition to using its traditional public- and private-sector financing instruments to support the growth of the textile and fashion industry, the AfDB is developing the innovative and technology-driven Fashionomics Africa platform, an online interactive marketplace for medium and small scale enterprises (MSMEs) and relevant stakeholders in the textile and fashion sectors in Africa. The goal is to enable young African textile and fashion entrepreneurs to create and grow their businesses.
"Africa should be exporting finished textile products, such as clothes, suits, dresses, shirts; not cotton lint," said Akinwumi Adesina, President of the AfDB.
Africa produces up to 6% of the world's cotton, but the continent has very few textile factories and, due to poor industrialization, much of the fabric is imported from Asia.

Liberty appoints Martha Spurrier as its new Director
Liberty has today announced the appointment of its new Director – campaigner and barrister Martha Spurrier.
Martha comes to Liberty with an exceptional track record in defending people's rights, raising awareness of threats to fundamental freedoms and holding the state to account for neglect, abuse and mistreatment. She will join Liberty from Doughty Street Chambers, where she has specialised in defending access to justice and the rights of women, children and disabled people.
As a barrister, Martha has acted for bereaved families seeking answers after loved ones have died in state care, represented victims of rape, domestic violence and trafficking who have been failed by the police, and challenged attempts to curb press freedom and protest rights. She was previously a lawyer at mental health charity Mind and the Public Law Project, where she led a ground-breaking access to justice project. She has written widely on civil liberties and recently ran a high-profile campaign on the importance of the Human Rights Act in protecting ordinary people and their families.
Martha Spurrier said: "It's a huge privilege to join an organisation I've admired and supported for so long. Liberty is a dynamic, dauntless and unshakeably principled force in the fight to protect our rights and freedoms. It has been fearlessly confronting state power for more than eight decades – and its work is needed now more than ever.
"In this fast-paced, complex, digital world the battle to defend our human rights faces new frontiers. Liberty must continue to shine a light on abuses of power and protect equality, dignity and fairness in our society. I look forward to joining Liberty's formidable staff and members to take on these challenges in the pivotal months and years to come."
Frances Butler, Chair of Liberty, said: "Martha Spurrier shone out in a competitive field as our unanimous choice to lead Liberty into the next phase of its proud history.
"She is a compelling and fearless campaigner with energy, gravitas, a first-class mind and a quick wit. We are confident that, under Martha's leadership, Liberty will continue to vigorously and successfully champion all our rights and freedoms."
Shami Chakrabarti, former Director of Liberty, said: "I am proud to be succeeded by such a brilliant young barrister – a woman so capable of taking her advocacy from our highest courts to the nation's hearts.
"With so many threats to refugee protection, online privacy and even our Human Rights Act, Liberty was never more needed, nor its leadership ever in better hands."
A critical time for Liberty
Founded in 1934 in response to the hunger marches, Liberty is a multi-disciplinary team that works together to protect civil liberties and human rights through campaigning, test litigation, parliamentary work and free advice and information.
Martha will lead its team of campaigning, legal and policy experts at a critical time for human rights in the UK, as the organisation campaigns to:
• Stop the fatally flawed Investigatory Powers Bill, currently being rushed into law despite a consensus among campaigners, tech experts and parliamentary committees that it is not fit for purpose.
• Save the Human Rights Act, which the Government has pledged to scrap.
• Curb the Government's discriminatory policing, immigration detention and asylum policies which threaten race relations and lack compassion.

A study at Stanford and New York University titled 'Living Under Drones' claimed that only two percent of drone strike casualties in Pakistan are top militants, and that the large number of related civilian deaths turn Pakistanis against the US.
The study revealed that number of casualties among Pakistani civilians was far higher than the US acknowledged.
The researchers spent over nine months in Pakistan questioning survivors and witnesses of drone attacks, and the relatives of those killed by drones. Researchers interviewed over 130 people in total. The Pakistani human rights group Foundation for Fundamental Rights helped the study's authors locate witnesses.
The researchers claimed that US drone policy in the region has not helped Washington achieve its goal of curbing terrorism in the region. The civilian deaths that mark practically every drone strike on terror suspects in Pakistan's tribal regions has, rather, achieved the opposite goal: Locals hate the US because of the unceasing fear that death may come from above at any moment.
"US targeted killings and drone strike practices undermine respect for the rule of law and international legal protections and may set dangerous precedents," the report said.
The report claimed that Pakistanis are afraid to attend public events like weddings or funerals, which US drone operators frequently mistake for gatherings of Taliban or Al-Qaeda militants. In March 17, 2011, a drone strike killed an estimated 42 people who were later revealed to be attending a meeting of local elders, called 'jirga.' The elders had gathered to settle a dispute over ownership of a chromite mine. Only four out of 42 victims reportedly had terrorist ties.
According to the Bureau of Investigative Journalism, from June 2004 till mid-September 2012, between 2,562 and 3,325 people were killed in drone strikes Pakistan, mostly in the North Waziristan region. Some 474 to 881 of those killed were civilians, including 176 children. Another 1,300 were wounded.
The study calls into question the accuracy of those figures: Reports on casualties are usually delivered by Pakistani officials, who are often reluctant to reveal their real names and positions. The authors of 'Living Under Drones' argue that collecting accurate data on US drone strikes in Pakistan is also made more difficult by government secrecy.
The drone program, initiated by President George W. Bush administration in 2004, became a full-fledged Air Force operation under Barack Obama, with most operations delegated to the CIA.
In 2004, there was only one drone strike in Pakistan; in 2010, that number reached 127.
In June 2012, Christof Heyns, the UN special rapporteur on extrajudicial killings, reported that Washington's drone policy presented a major challenge to the post-WWII system of international law.
The US political establishment continues to support the drone program. In July 2012, a New America Foundation (NAF) report claimed that the rate of civilian deaths in drone strikes in Pakistan was falling rapidly. CNN also published a graph depicting zero Pakistani civilian deaths in 2012 from drone strikes.
The authors of the report argued that increased transparency and accountability could bring the American drone program in line with international law. But considerable doubts linger, particularly after three American citizens were killed in separate drone strikes in Yemen in 2011; their families filed a wrongful death lawsuit.
The CIA continues to conduct drone strikes in the region. Over the last four days, two strikes occurred in Afghanistan. On Monday, two missiles fired from a drone hit a militant hideout in northwestern Pakistan, killing five alleged terrorists.
And on Saturday, a US drone destroyed a vehicle in northwest Pakistan, killing four suspected militants.

In Spite Of A Late Winner, Yes, Tavernier You Ought To Be Embarrassed Tonight.
I don't know whether James Tavernier feels relieved tonight or not. I don't know whether he's embarrassed or not or even if someone who's spent the last year at Ibrox even has the capacity to feel that emotion any longer. I do know a lot of Sevco's fans are embarrassed tonight, both for Tavernier and at him, and the rest of the team too, in spite a winner deep into injury time. Relieved, yes, but deep down they know this was a hair from dropped points.
They say that success has a thousand fathers whilst failure is an orphan; definitely true, and it helps that we're not even talking about a defeat here but a rather abysmal home win against Dundee. The responsibility for this unfolding calamity of a season probably stretches out in every direction, but I rather feel that nobody wants to own it.
Tavernier is not responsible for it. But had Forrester not gotten his late goal it's Tavernier's mouth that would have made tonight's particular phase of The Crumbling all the sweeter for the fans of other clubs. If Sevco fans are truly sick of all this and simply want to hide under the bed, well I don't blame them for that one bit.
There was a famous American TV show back in the sands of time called Truth Or Consequences. It was so named for a segment in it, where contestants would have to do a series of "truth tasks" and if they couldn't the presenter would say the dreaded words;
"You did not tell the truth … so you will have to pay the consequences."
Well the consequences of not facing the truth are much harder and weightier than those for failing to tell it. Telling the truth is a concept that's going out of fashion in the 21st Century; it's not for nothing that people call it the post-truth era. But although their board frequently misinforms and even lies, and the media supports various lies and the governing bodies are propping up others, these people are not strangers to the truth.
We tell them enough of it.
Deep down some of them are wholly aware of what the more inconvenient facts and truths are. It's not our fault that they don't want to accept it, but facing up to it could have changed everything for them and helped. Believing in the lies, as they've chosen to do, embracing outright falsehood and living in a bubble … that is a disastrous strategy and it always was.
Tonight some of them will hide behind a 1-0 home win, and tell themselves things are on the up.
Others know better, and they will look at guys like Tavernier and his big talk about how the club will easily secure second spot and they will know so many of the players Warburton branded a "success" the other day in his ludicrous interview with a pet hack are simply overmatched in Scotland's top flight. They do their talking in the press instead of on the park, and the media will run their nonsense all day every day but they are setting things up so the fall is even harder than it needs to be.
Their next four league fixtures are Partick and then Hearts away, followed by Aberdeen and Hearts at home. The more aware amongst their ranks know the potential not just for disaster but for an apocalyptic end to the year are there in those matches and every one of them will be a sweat, every one of them will be a struggle. Every one is fraught with danger, and had Forrester not scored late tonight every one of them would be a must-win.
James Tavernier ought to be mortified by his own bravado.
Tonight a lot the people who had to sit in the stands – with the most expensive season tickets in the country – will be raging with him for his attitude and the way his words will be used to beat their whole club over and over again as this season drags on and on and on.
But this malaise starts at the top, and the manager is just part of the problem.
The rest of it lies above his head.
The AGM is on Friday.
Forrester's goal has bought them all a little time, but it's running out fast.
