Ultrasonic neck lift surgery is not performed in the office, rather at a state-of-the-art, fully accredited, outpatient surgical center or hospital. Anesthesia is provided by physician anesthesiologists. The procedure is minimally invasive and takes less than 1 hour. Local anesthesia is added for patient comfort. The patient is discharged home with a cold compress to limit swelling and pain.
Most patients are comfortable with Tylenol following the surgery. Stronger pain medication is prescribed if necessary. Patients can usually resume normal activities within a couple of days. Most swelling and bruising is gone in less than a week. Patients are advised to refrain from strenuous physical activity and exercise for 6 weeks. Ultrasonic necklift is a nice alternative for patients who are not yet ready for a full facelift procedure.
Ultrasonic Neck Lift is a unique procedure developed by Dr. Perez, incorporating his many years of experience and thousands of ultrasonic liposculpting procedures. Selected repeatedly as one of America's Top Doctors, Dr. Perez' extensive international travel and teaching have kept him up-to-date on the various techniques of facial rejuvenation.
The ultrasonic necklift is a less invasive neck tightening procedure for patients seeking to address laxity below the jawline only. It is a specially developed procedure combining the benefits of ultrasonic liposculpture, with skin and muscle tightening, all with minimal trauma and a limited scar under the chin.
It is important to emphasize that the ultrasonic necklift is not a full facelift and will not achieve any improvement above the jawline (see Face/Neck lift). Our mission is to customize surgery to each patient's individual goals. We strive to achieve a natural looking result with emphasis on enhancing the patient's own features. The ultrasonic neck lift procedure can be combined with eyelid surgery to further rejuvenate the aging face. Your individual needs and treatment options will be discussed honestly and thoroughly at the time of consultation.

At the end of every year I like to look back and see what all I accomplished. Since almost everything I create and work on is online, generating stats and data is relatively easy. Plus many services are now sending "year in review" emails so it's all automated. Here are some of this years numbers for Laravel News and this site.
1.5 million views with the best day bringing in 27k.
356 new posts, growing the total to 1,053 posts. Down from 679 last year.
Most popular post was the Laravel 5 release announcement because it hit the front page of hacker news.
Top referring sites: twitter.com, facebook.com, news.ycombinator.com, laravel.com. Thanks to all the others that linked to the site.
Most visitors came from The United States, United Kingdom, & India. 212 countries in all.
The Laravel newsletter grew from 3,260 subscribers to 11,650.
For this site which gets almost no love.
230k views with the best day bringing 1,800. Last year total views was 50k.
33 posts published bringing the total to 114.
Setting up Gulp, Bower, Bootstrap Sass, & FontAwesome was the most popular post and it wasn't even published this year. Search engines still reign.
Most visitors came from The United States, United Kingdom, & India.
I don't think there is anything to really learn from these numbers except to show up everyday and eventually something will hit.
For almost a decade I was a motorcycle safety instructor and taught a lot of students how to ride and more importantly how to ride safely.

Why Brattle?
Big Data & Document Analytics
Overview Engagements Experts Publications News & Knowledge
Paul Hinton
Principal | EMAIL
Economists at The Brattle Group routinely host, develop, and work with large-scale datasets that transform detailed customer, supplier, transaction, and other types of so-called "big data" into information that is useful for economic analysis. Our specialized data services ensure that scale does not prevent us from revealing the essential economic stories the data can tell.
Economic and financial analysis based upon large-scale datasets is a core requirement in complex litigation. Brattle has the infrastructure and expertise that enables us to get these datasets up and running on high performance big-data platforms. We provide data services for clients, testifying experts, courts, and regulators in connection with litigation matters and complex commercial disputes. The breadth and depth of our experience enables us to offer exceptional data processing and analytics capabilities.
Document Analytics
In investigations with document-intensive discovery, Brattle experts work to assist clients with document analytics to target the most valuable documents quickly and to deliver answers to key questions. Our approach is rooted in our substantive expertise in data analytics, which draw on the latest techniques from data science, such as predictive coding, topic modeling, and email network mapping. We coordinate closely with investigative and trial teams, and our approach is customized to each case. Our hallmark is a clear, detailed work product that is targeted to our client's focus and dovetailed with the key aspects of the case.
A challenge in high-stakes financial investigations, such as money laundering cases, fraud, and white-collar crime, is identifying questionable transactions and information flows within large volumes of ordinary, but typically fragmented, financial and email records with limited time and resources. We apply "big data" techniques in financial investigations to identify patterns and linkages potentially indicative of illicit activities that would be hidden or difficult to detect with traditional methods.
We add analytic capabilities to litigation and investigative teams, making it possible to extract more information from the available documents and metadata, and to do so more efficiently. Extracting data using algorithms from across multiple documents, native files, or routine corporate reports can provide key empirical support for important findings not otherwise evident from individual documents. We bridge the technology gap that can separate useful lines of investigation and the technology platforms available to access documents, as well as the challenges posed by large-scale cases. We do this by writing custom algorithms with the flexibility to analyze information in ways best suited to the specifics of the case rather than constrained by the off-the-shelf analytic tools available to the investigative teams.
Big data may exceed or strain the memory and hard disk capacity of traditional computing platforms, requiring more advanced techniques for storing, manipulating, visualizing, and summarizing such large datasets. Even if the data can fit within the capacity limits of a traditional computing platform, the processing time needed to perform analysis may limit the scope of feasible analysis and the productivity of experts. Using a specialized big data platform, such as a Hadoop cluster, makes complex analysis of large datasets feasible, timely, and more efficient.
We have experience deploying our own Hadoop clusters and other terabyte-scale data storage solutions, and working with third party hosting companies to provide secure remote access. The programming languages we most commonly use in conjunction with the Hadoop platform are Python, R, SQL, and Pig. We use these languages to transform, extract, and sample low-level transactional data to produce datasets more suitable for traditional analysis tools such as Excel or Stata. Our expertise and experience in deploying Hadoop clusters provides Brattle with a competitive advantage in extracting from raw data the economic insights of critical importance to each case.

An article by Eliana Garcés and Daniel Fanaras examines the rising scrutiny being placed on the accumulation and use of data by digital platforms. The authors discuss the role of data in creating value for businesses and consumers, the regulatory considerations being voiced within antitrust and privacy settings, and the need for a case-by-case assessment of these considerations rather than generalized conclusions.

The difference between college athletics and the pros is to compare street cars with Indy cars. The professional game is way bigger and goes miles faster. And while it's rare for professional athletes to excel without first being accomplished college players, it's no guarantee that greatness in college will translate to equal or greater success in the pro game.
Just look at Ryan Leaf, who was selected No. 2 in the 1998 NFL draft behind Peyton Manning and turned out to be one of the biggest draft busts in NFL history. Or Mark Sanchez, a star quarterback at Southern Cal who enjoyed early success with the New York Jets but has been little more than a backup in his last five seasons. Or Adam Morrison, who scored 28 points a game for Gonzaga in his junior year in 2006 but washed out of the NBA. Or Mateen Cleaves, who led Michigan State to the 2000 NCAA title but failed to stick in the NBA.
Asserting that gambling will ruin golf is akin to Captain Renault, in the legendary movie "Casablanca," being shocked that gambling was happening at Rick's Café ("Odds are good that gambling won't mar Tour," May 18).

Wise, 21, a Tour rookie, shot 6-under 65 for a 23-under 261 total and three-stroke victory. Wise, the 2016 NCAA champion out of Oregon, has won in three consecutive years on different tours since turning professional in late 2016: on Canada's MacKenzie Tour two years ago, the Web.com Tour last year and now in the big leagues. Australian Marc Leishman (68) finished second at 20-under 264. Americans Keith Mitchell (63) and J.J. Spaun (63) shared third with South African Branden Grace (62) at 19-under 265 (scores).

Artificial reefs... The Use of Electrical Current to Enhance Calcium Carbonate Formation - 08/02/07 Hello WWM! <Hello Marc! Mich here!> As always thank you for this wonderful website! <As always, thank you for the kind words.> Tonight, I have a question regarding artificial reefs. I saw a program on TV this week about the Palms Islands off the coast of Dubai (United Arab Emirates). I fear that this project might very well doom a huge part of the marine biodiversity in this area, but that is not why I am writing. In this program they spoke of their intentions on building a huge artificial reef around some of the islands. They were using an interesting technique involving a metallic structure in which an electric current is sent (I don't remember the intensity of this electric current). This technique was supposed to attract "corals" to the metallic structure, and thus, building a new reef. <Yes have heard of this. More here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/3717168.stm http://www.globalcoral.org/Electric%20Reefs.htm http://www.globalcoral.org/index.html> What they showed resembled a lot calcium carbonate (they called it "live corals", but I doubt there was any living corals on these). <No, the corals are living.> I tried finding more info on the web regarding this unique technique, but haven't found any. <It's out there, you just have to look.> What do you think about this technique and do you have more info on it, <It works. See links above> specially regarding how it could "create" coral skeletons (my guess would be that the electrical current enhances calcium carbonate precipitation)? <Enhances Calcium Carbonate formation. Providing some of the skeletal material, allows the coral polyps to focus its energy on tissue generation.> Thank you for your time, <Welcome. Mich> Marc.


Bring your own device (BYOD) is a hot topic among cybersecurity professionals and business leaders. Today's workers, particularly millennials, require the mobility to work from wherever they are and cloud solutions are enabling an ever-growing number to work from their mobile devices. How to protect company data while providing employees the flexibility and mobility they need is a big concern. Compliance with data protection laws is complicated when customer data is stored and used on devices that are not under the direct control of the company.
A new report, just released, gives some compelling insights into this issue.
Bitglass, the Next-Gen CASB company, has released its 2018 BYOD Security Report. The analysis is based on a survey of nearly 400 enterprise IT experts who revealed the state of BYOD and mobile device security in their organizations.
Organizations are embracing BYOD, making it available to employees (76 percent), contractors (27 percent), partners (25 percent), customers (22 percent), and suppliers (19 percent).
51 percent of respondents believe the number of threats targeting mobile devices has increased in the past year. Unfortunately, only 30 percent of firms are confident that they are properly defending against malware on personal and mobile devices.
30 percent of enterprises cite company security concerns as the leading inhibitor to BYOD adoption; specifically, they are worried about data leakage (61 percent), unauthorized data access (53 percent), and the inability to control uploads and downloads (53 percent).
One in five organizations lacks visibility into basic, native mobile apps (like email) on personal devices.
Only 56 percent of companies can employ key functionality like remote wipe for removing sensitive data from endpoints.
Bitglass partnered with a cross-industry cybersecurity community to survey nearly 400 IT experts about the state of BYOD security in their organizations.

Sunday was our very first Confirmation Festival (ConFest) in the NT-NL Synod. 20 congregations from around the metroplex sent 180 students and adults to learn about the ministries of the synod, meet the Bishop, and worship together.
I was there to represent the synod at our display table, but got to also participate in the worship service. Fun day!
My hope is we'll be able to do this every year, and maybe even have similar events in other parts of the synod!

Does Los Angeles need another food truck? Probably not. But sometimes the marketing people come up with something better than Fred Astaire selling vacuums and combine things that actually make sense. What better than hybridizing the cult status of Kogi BBQ with World Cup fanaticism? Enter the ESPN Match Truck, a food truck equipped with high definition, LCD video screens that will broadcast the FIFA Cup matches while serving food created by Kogi chef Roy Choi. Two trucks, one here and one in New York, will launch tomorrow, as, of course, does the World Cup. The menu, supposedly inspired by the 32 teams playing, includes chicken curry bunny chow; rice balls; lamb gyros with tzatziki; yaki mandoo dumplings; huevos rancheros; and Spanish omelets with Manchego. If the lines are anything like those that have gathered around Kogi, it's a good thing that the truck will be showing the games, as you'd probably miss them otherwise.
Track the whereabouts of the truck, obviously, on Twitter @ESPNWCTruckLA.

Die Vedic war ein 1918 in Dienst gestelltes Passagierschiff der britischen Reederei White Star Line. Sie befuhr zunächst die Nordatlantikroute und diente nach 1925 im Auswandererverkehr nach Australien. Nach der Zusammenlegung der White Star Line mit der Cunard Line wurde die Vedic 1934 in Schottland abgewrackt.

Das Schiff
Das 9.332 BRT große Dampfturbinenschiff Vedic wurde von Harland & Wolff in Govan bei Glasgow gebaut und lief am 18. Dezember 1917 vom Stapel. Das 140 Meter lange und 17,77 Meter breite Schiff war das erste Schiff des amerikanischen Schifffahrtskonzerns International Mercantile Marine Company, das nicht speziell für eine seiner eingegliederten Reedereien gebaut wurde. Die Vedic hatte einen Schornstein, zwei Masten und zwei Propeller und konnte maximal 14 Knoten fahren.

Die Vedic wurde im Juli 1918 letztlich für die White Star Line fertiggestellt. Da sie als reines Auswandererschiff geplant war, hatte sie nur Unterkünfte der Dritten Klasse und konnte insgesamt 1250 Reisende befördern. Sie war das erste Schiff der White Star-Flotte, das lediglich von Dampfturbinen angetrieben wurde. Aufgrund des Kriegs wurde sie direkt als Truppentransporter fertiggestellt. Am 11. Juli 1918 lief sie in Belfast zu ihrer Jungfernfahrt über Liverpool nach Boston aus, wo sie für ihre Truppenfahrten vorbereitet wurde.

Bis April 1919 unterstand das Schiff dem Liner Requisition Theme der britischen Regierung, Im September 1919 wurde die Vedic für die Repatriierung britischer Truppen aus Russland genutzt. 1920 wurde sie in Middlesbrough überholt und nahm im August desselben Jahres erstmals ihren Passagierservice von Liverpool nach Quebec nach Montreal. Zwischen dem 22. Dezember 1921 und dem 6. April 1922 bediente die Vedic die Route Liverpool–Halifax–Portland und zwischen dem 6. April 1922 und dem 11. Oktober 1922 machte sie zusammen mit der Poland der Red Star Line vier Überfahrten von Bremen über Southampton nach Quebec und Montreal.

Nach einer Überholung im Jahr 1925 wurde die Vedic in Zusammenarbeit mit der Blue Funnel Line im Auswandererverkehr von Großbritannien nach Australien verwendet. Sie war das erste Schiff der White Star Line, das nach der Fusion mit der Cunard Line 1934 zum Verschrotten verkauft wurde. Cunard hielt die Mehrheit der Firmenanteile und entschied sich, die veraltete Vedic außer Dienst zu stellen. Sie wurde noch im selben Jahr in Rosyth (Schottland) verschrottet.

30 Year Versus 15 Year Mortgages Continued: What About Income Tax? Income tax deductions shouldn't be a major concern when you're thinking about which mortgage to choose.

Ranking All Public Safety Devil Hunter Divisions in Chainsaw Man From Worst to Best
Ben Hestad 2 years ago
Chainsaw Man is a pretty decently popular manga that has an anime coming out later this year. The series follows Denji, a young man who makes a contract with his devil friend, Pochita, who has a pretty rough time in life, but is then enlisted by the Devil Hunters that are part of Japan's Public Safety division. The Devil Hunters give him food, shelter, and basically a livable life, and he ends up making some unlikely friends along the way. The only catch is that he has to work for them to hunt Devils, or else he'll be executed just like the rest of them. That's pretty much the gist of the story without too many spoilers, of which there will be plenty, so don't say I didn't warn you! So, which of the Public Safety Devil Hunters in Chainsaw Man are the best, and which ones are the worst? Let's find out!
Miyagi Division 2
Miyagi Division 2 consisted of Kusakabe and Tamaoki, however, both of these Devil Hunters were killed, so the Miyagi Division 2 doesn't really exist anymore. I don't even remember either of these Devil Hunters, which makes them completely and utterly forgettable.
Kyoto Division 1
Kyoto Division 1 included Subaru, Yutaro Kurose, and Michiko Tendo. These Devil Hunters were brought in by Makima after she finds out that Denji's existence is revealed to the world through the media, and she orders several Public Safety Devil Hunters to be brought in to safeguard Denji. Unfortunately, while Kyoto Division 1 was driving to Tokyo, they were caught in a spike trap, and murdered by the USA brothers Aldo, Joey, and another brother who was left unnamed. This means that they really didn't get any appearance in the Chainsaw Man manga, but they were pretty brutally murdered, so I feel bad for them.
Tokyo Division 2
The Tokyo Division 2 Devil Hunters consist of Furono, Nomo, Kato, Tanabe, Masaki Ando, and Nakamura. All but one of these Devil Hunters – Furono – was killed on duty. All of these Devil Hunters were pretty underwhelming, they weren't really involved in the story all that much, and they just didn't make all that much of a difference in Chainsaw Man. Nakamura is really the only one that I actually remember, probably because he was one of the other Devil Hunters who had a contract with the Fox Devil, just like Aki.
Special Division 5
Public Safety Devil Hunter Special Division 5 consists of Makima, Quanxi, Katana Man, Reze, and a few unnamed devils like an unnamed Longsword Hybrid, unnamed Spear Hybrid, Unnamed Whip Hybrid, and an unnamed Flamethrower Hybrid. This is definitely one of the most important Devil Hunter Divisions in Chainsaw Man, specifically when it comes to the end of Part 1 and Chainsaw Man – who actually isn't Denji at this point – has to fight literally all of them by himself. Makima, who is now dead, because Denji ate her (yeah, his reasoning behind this was something about showing her love, rather than hate, but still super weird), was one of the main characters in Chainsaw Man, and Denji's sole purpose in life was to kiss her and spend the rest of his life with her, which I guess is true in some weird and twisted ways, now that he ate her. While I hate just about every single one of these Devil Hunters – especially Makima – they are certainly some of the most interesting, and vital characters to the story of Chainsaw Man.
Now, that brings us to Special Division 4. This Division of Devil Hunters consists of Captain Kishibe, Aki Hayakawa, Power, Denji, Prinz, Angel, Himeno, Fushi, Madoka, Hirokazu Arai, Kobeni Higashiyama, Beam, and Galgali. Most of these Devil Hunters ended up being killed, except for Captain Kishibe, who still remains a Devil Hunter, Madoka, and Kobeni Higashiyama, who both resigned from Public Safety. This Division of Devil Hunters is by far my favorite, and includes my favorite characters in the whole series, who were all unfortunately killed off, but I'm still holding out hope that Beam can eventually make his way back to life in Part 2, whenever that releases. Not only is there excellent character development throughout this entire Division, but all of the Devil Hunters have substance, they're important, and most of them are pretty likeable for the duration of their appearances.
I'm sure we'll probably end up seeing a brand new Division of Devil Hunters appear in Chainsaw Man Part 2, but we still don't really know when that's going to happen. I still can't wait to see the series animated later this year!

Q: Why does the php not work for my form? I have been trying to make this form validate before sending an email to my company.  It will not validate the form, it will just send it whenever someone clicks submit.  No validation is happening, I don't know what to do about this.
Here is a little of the form

Reason for Leaving?
<input type="text" id="reason3" name="reason3" class="c3">

May we contact the employers listed above?

If not, indicate which you do not wish us to contact:

Any additonal information you would like us to

consider when reviewing your application?

employed by Creative Urethanes, Inc., any false statements on this application may be

A: There are a few things that need to happen in order for your PHP to read the form data.  First, as Waygood suggested, it is a good idea to change your $_POST values to have single quotes around the passed variable name.
//For example:
$_POST[address];

// Should change to:
$_POST['address']; //Notice the single quotes around the word address

Secondly, as answered by John, there is no reference to the passed submitted value in your html form, you'll want to add a hidden input in your form (anywhere between your   tags) that holds the value of 1 to make your first statement true in order for the rest of your php code to execute.

<form method="POST" action="your_submission_page.php">
    <input type="hidden" name="submitted" value="1" />
</form>

Finally, it's good practice to notify the user of ALL of the errors in the form so that they don't experience error after error before being able to submit the form.  What you should be doing is building a dynamic array of error messages, checking to see if there are any errors and then displaying them all.
<?php
    // Create a dynamic array for the error messages and validate everything before sending them back to the form that shows them

    // Here is a sample of your code with the dynamic array built in
    $error_msgs = array ();
    $error = 0; //Error flag

    if ($_POST['cwage2']){
        $cwage2 = $_POST['cwage2'];
    } else {
        $error_msgs[] = "Please enter wage earned, or type N/A";
        $errors++; //Flag to let the code know that there are errors, used in every case
    }

    if ($_POST['cstart2']){
        $cstart2 = $_POST['cstart2'];
    } else {
        $error_msgs[] = "Please enter date started, or type N/A";
        $errors++; //Flag to let the code know that there are errors, used in every case
    }

    // Finally at the end, check to see if there are any errors and display them all
    if ($errors > 0) {
        //Display the amount of errors first
        echo "There were " . $errors . " errors in your submission, please correct them.
";

        //Then display your error array
        foreach ($error_msgs as &$msg) {
            echo $msg . "
";
        }
    } else {
        // Add code here to submit the form however you'd like

    }

?>

A: I don't see a form field named submitted and without it your PHP validation code won't be triggered. Try changing:
if ($_POST['submitted']==1) {

to something more generic like this:
if ('POST' === $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD']) {

A: OK @KibaHeitfield
Change references to array elements from:
$_POST[first_name]

to:
$_POST['first_name']

A: *

*there is no if for following else
else{
    if ($errormsg){ //if there is already an error, add next error
        $errormsg = $errormsg;
    }else{
}

}

*$errormsg = $errormsg; doesn't mean anything.

*Errormsg is assigned but never used. Use echo $errormsg;

*$_POST[first_name] should be $_POST['first_name']

*Instead of $_POST['submitted'] use if($_POST['field89'] == 'Submit')

*Why don't you experiment with a small form and expand when it starts working.

A: Or you can simply check this way
if($_POST){
 //form is posted do your work here
}

A: You seem to have no way of showing the error. Try adding this to the foot of your php code:
echo $errormsg; die();

instead of
$errormsg = $errormsg;

Let us know what happens.

A: Did you give a method for the form ("GET","POST")?

National Adoption Month is an initiative of the Children's Bureau, the first federal agency within the U.S. Government, to focus exclusively on improving the lives of children and families. For over two decades, National Adoption Month has been promoted and celebrated every November in communities across the country. Many national, State, and local agencies as well as foster, kinship care, and adoptive family groups will help spread the word through programs, events, and activities that help raise awareness for thousands of children and youth in foster care who are waiting for permanent, loving families.
Each year, the initiative focuses its outreach and awareness-raising efforts around a new adoption-related theme. For the 2017 National Adoption Month initiative, the theme "Teens Need Families, No Matter What," highlights the importance of identifying well-prepared and committed families for the thousands of teenagers in foster care. According to the most recent Adoption and Foster Care Analysis and Reporting System report, over 110,000 children and youth in foster care are waiting to be adopted and close to 12,500 of them are between the ages of 15 and 17 years old. Many of these young people are less likely to be adopted, often because of their age, and will too often age out of the system without a stable support system. Securing lifelong connections for these teens, legally and emotionally, is an urgent need and critical component of their future achievement and overall well-being.
The Opportunity Alliance (TOA) is a local, private, non-profit social service agency. TOA envisions contributing meaningfully to a community in which families and individuals are thriving and supported as they pursue their aspirations for a better life. Within The Opportunity Alliance, there is a shared belief that positive change is possible and that together, they can help build a stronger community.
One TOA program which supports positive change is their Therapeutic Foster Care (TFC) program. The following is just one example of a youth involved in Maine's foster care system getting support from a local therapeutic foster care agency. TOA is not an adoption agency, but TOA does partner with its foster parents to support youth in their homes, and sometimes, foster parents choose to adopt the children they've had placed in their homes.
Elizabeth became a therapeutic foster parent with The Opportunity Alliance (TOA) in 2013. She had a teenage boy, who had previously been involved with Maine's juvenile justice system, placed in her home by Maine's Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). The teenager was in TOA's therapeutic foster care program for two years. A TOA case manager visited him at home twice monthly, and more often when the family needed extra support. Elizabeth liked that the TOA team addressed issues and that she could talk openly with her team. She felt that she and the teenager placed in her home, could be honest with each other and the team when everyone discussed his treatment and his progress. Elizabeth felt the team-approach helped her and the teen to figure "things" out. He is the first teenager that Elizabeth parented and she was thankful for the insight from team members. She liked that the team at TOA knew the teen's history and that they were able to support them both and come up with solutions to the issues they were facing in their parent-child relationship, as well as issues he was working through in his individual treatment. TOA staff also supported him during visits with his mother and siblings. He saw his mother weekly for a year and a half, prior to her termination of parental rights. Although the original plan was for him to reunify with his mother, Elizabeth decided to adopt this teen once his mother's rights were terminated to make him part of her growing family. Elizabeth continues to keep in touch with his biological mother and she coordinates visits with his younger siblings, so he can remain connected to them.
Elizabeth reports that he is doing well and has met his goals and surpassed them. He has become more independent and is working part-time while going to school. He is getting good grades and completing his work, which was a challenge for him in the past. She believes that he is emotionally stable for the first time, and contributes his stability to the safety and security of belonging and being part of their family, which includes two brothers and a sister at home. Elizabeth says he is a thoughtful and kind big brother. Elizabeth believes in the system so much that she has adopted four children through Maine's foster care system.

I checked my stats on geocaching.com and discovered that we seem to do most of our caching in October. This sort of fits, since in October, it's *usually* not snowing, the rain *sometimes* isn't horrendous and there are no bugs. Plus the Christmas mayhem hasn't hit yet and the foliage is spectacular. October is just a marvellous month in which to be outside in Newfoundland. Which is good, because the increasingly short days always play havoc with my energy levels and good humour.

The Grand Hyatt San Antonio opened its doors 10 years ago.
Since that time, it has accommodated more than three million guests and hosted in excess of 5,000 meetings.
To celebrate its first decade of business, the property just completed a sweeping $19 million renovation of guest rooms, meeting spaces, corridors, the lobby, an onsite bar and more.
The redesign was aimed at capturing the essence of San Antonio's rich culture, including the city's popular River Walk, Hyatt said in a statement.
Refreshed guest rooms, for instance, are now accented in southwestern colors and contemporary furniture. There have also been technology upgrades, making wireless high-speed internet available for free in all hotel rooms and public spaces.
Meeting spaces have also been updated, providing 13 indoor and outdoor venues to host weddings, social gatherings or corporate events. In addition, the hotel includes a 5,200 square foot balcony overlooking San Antonio.
The newly renovated hotel entrance showcases exquisite wall coverings, while the lobby now includes Italian tile and marble, new furniture and easily accessible electrical outlets to encourage networking and conversations among guests.
A final element of the hotel's renovation focused on its Bar Rojo, where there's now increased seating and new modernized furniture incorporating embedded electrical outlets and wireless technology in the marble table tops.
The Grand Hyatt San Antonio is located next to San Antonio's Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center and is connected to the world famous Alamodome via a footbridge.
The Hyatt property includes a heated roof-top pool and offers morning yoga classes, a state-of-the-art fitness center with cardio machines and three restaurants including Ruth's Chris Steak House.


The next time you feel stuck with writer's block, try taking a walk. A Stanford study has shown that walking increases creativity over simply sitting, even when walking indoors on a treadmill.
For Intelligent Life, Tim de Lisle captured some of Philip Pullman's wisdom from his most recent interview, including his advice on how to get over writer's block: If you're stuck, if you're really desperate—dialogue: "Hello." "Oh hello." "How are you?" "Not too bad, thanks. How are you?" "Not too bad." Half a page already.
Singer-songwriter Guy Forsyth talks about his time with the much-storied Asylum Street Spankers, his David and Goliath-esque legal battle against his former record label, and his latest album, The Freedom to Fail.
Author Dani Shapiro talks about her latest book, Still Writing, MFA vs. NYC vs. life in bucolic CT, and the lure of Internet.
A cop without a beat. Not so unlike a writer without a story. He could only fantasize how he'd realize his deepest desire: to fire those weapons in a glorious blaze of noise and carnage.

the F O R V M > Diet > When to eat after cardio?
View Full Version : When to eat after cardio?
I want to cut for a while because I have never had really good definition in my abs and would really like to. After I do cardio first thing the morning (gonna start tomorrow) how long should I/do I need to wait before eating? And should I take any protein before cardio. Thought it would be best to do on an empty stomach, but it will also have been ALL night since I have eaten.
When I am on a cut, I usually take cuts first thing in the morning with BCAA stack. I sip on EAA Stack during the cardio session. From there I go and I prepare my first meal. Usually I am so hungry by the time the cardio is done I eat right after I get off the treadmill or whatever I'm on. Hope this helps.
In order to cut, you will have to put your body at catabolic state. This means you will burn more calories then you consume resulting in your body feeding off fat for energy.
The best time to preform cardio, from my experience, is in the mornings on an empty stomach. There is less energy from glycogen. Once your body runs out of glycogen it will use fat as a source of energy.
Remember at this state though, your body is not capable of producing muscle gains.
When I did cardio, I did it first thing in the morning, went home, showered up and had breakfast. So it was about 15-20min after cardio was done.

Renew Hope. Restore Cambodia.
Why Cambodia?
From Canada to Cambodia, we are working together
to restore those robbed of freedom and protect the vulnerable.
International Headquarters – Canada Staff
Brian McConaghy, Founding Director
Brian McConaghy, Founding Director of Ratanak International, was a Forensic Scientist with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police for 22 years. For 19 of those years he performed his duties with the RCMP while setting up and running Ratanak International as a volunteer. Brian is a man with a burden for the people of Cambodia. Having grown up in Belfast, Northern Ireland, Brian knows what it is like to live under the stress of political turmoil.
Brian first visited Cambodian refugee camps in Thailand in 1989. What he witnessed there appalled him. This experience led him into Cambodia several months later, only to find conditions worse than in the camps. This was the start of a long journey that has taken Brian and Ratanak International through many challenging and rewarding times in their desire to be servants of the Khmer people.
After visiting Cambodian refugee camps and seeing a documentary on Cambodia, Brian was moved to study the complexities of this country and to do something to alleviate the suffering. The result was a charity named after a little girl he saw dying in that documentary.
Brian never got to meet Ratanak but she changed his life.
The challenge for Brian in Cambodia has been immense from the start, often traumatic and overwhelming but also full of hope and even great joy. Yet his goal remains the same: Keep pushing ahead, saving one life at a time, in the name of Jesus Christ.
Brian McConaghy, Founding Director of Ratanak International, is a man with a burden for the people of Cambodia. His journey serving Cambodia began in 1989, when he first visited the Cambodian refugee camps in Thailand. His dedication to the people of Cambodia is a reflection of the person of Jesus Christ at work in his life.
Graeme Illman, Executive Director
Graeme joined the Ratanak team in 2013. He comes to Ratanak with a background in pastoral ministry and has served congregations in Atlanta, Georgia; Whitby, Ontario; and Coquitlam, BC. He was first exposed to the work of Ratanak through his congregation in Coquitlam that enjoys a long-standing partnership with the organization. Graeme has a heart for cross-cultural ministry and has participated in mission trips to Venezuela, Mexico, Hungary, Nicaragua, Cuba, and Honduras. He brings executive leadership to the Ratanak family in order that hope may be brought to the people of Cambodia. Graeme and his wife have three children.
Graeme Illman, Executive Director of Ratanak International, has a passion for overseas ministry that was birthed at a young age. Cambodia has taken a unique place in his heart because of the beauty and graciousness of a people who have suffered so much historically. He continues to be drawn to Ratanak's willingness to step into dark places with a humble confidence that God is still on the move.
Melissa Polman
Communications & Events Director
Melissa Polman, Communications & Events Director

He has particular expertise in child labour, gender based violence, social protection and monitoring & evaluation. He comes to Ratanak from a large US government funded child labour project run by World Vision.
Tony's family first engaged with Cambodia in the 1980's, when his wife Margaret worked for 7 years in the Cambodian refugee camps on the Thai border. Their three children, now teenagers and young adults, have grown up in Cambodia. He has a strong desire to see all types of poverty and violence continue to be reduced in Cambodia, based in an understanding of Jesus's mission as one focused on bringing freedom to all people.
Tony comes from the UK, where he worked in a government sector providing welfare benefits, and continues to be interested in the development of strong national social protection systems that successfully reach and support the most vulnerable. He is delighted to be joining Ratanak and looks forward to supporting and developing the staff team and other partners in providing focused and transformative projects that reach some of the most exploited people in Cambodia.
Tony Posnett, Ratanak's Cambodia Field Office Director, leads our Cambodia staff in their service to exploited and vulnerable people in Cambodia. He comes to Ratanak with an invaluable skillset and passion for ministry. Together with our Cambodia office staff members, they are seeking restoration in some of the darkest places by walking alongside survivors of exploitation and empowering Cambodians to be agents of change.

National Office Directors
Steve Norman
UK National Office Director
Steve Norman, National Office Director – United Kingdom
In April 2008, Steve Norman, a Police Officer of 24 years, chanced upon an article in a Sunday newspaper supplement about a girl who was sold into prostitution at the age of 13. The next day he bought the book and read it through the night and into the next day. It was through this experience that God broke his heart and placed therein a deep compassion for those in Cambodia.
Following numerous fruitless searches and being advised that it was an area best avoided, Steve happened upon Ratanak International. Over the following months and the exchange of countless emails and calls, the prospect of developing Ratanak International in the UK became a reality. In May 2009 Ratanak-UK was formally born.
Steve's account from his first visit to Svay Pak in September 2009:
"After lunch we headed out to Rahab's House in the heart of Svay Pak. This is the place where pedophiles come to prey on children who are offered for sale – children often young enough to be still in kindergarten. As we pulled up and clambered out of our somewhat full vehicle, the sound of singing permeated through the air – the voices of children singing praises to God. In the midst of this absolute darkness the light is shining.
Touring round Rahab's House, I stumble upon a small room about 6 feet squared painted in a garish pink. This room is a reminder to the dark past of this place – it is what can perhaps best be described as a rape cell.
You know – in our western 'civilised' society – we have to ask ourselves some deep searching questions when we know these atrocities happen every day of every week of every year. Helen asked the question – 'What is the heart of the church for the vulnerable?' I know what the heart of Christ is for these little ones – I know he weeps tonight over the boys and girls in Svay Pak who are being ritually abused – do we? I ask you this same question."
Steve's heart, broken from the pain of those suffering and exploited in Cambodia and filled with Christ's love, drives him to serve the Khmer people. He is a committed Christian and has been married to Karen for 25 years. They have three children and two grandchildren. Steve and Karen live in rural North Yorkshire and are members of Influence Church, Richmond.

Jason Benn
Australia National Office Director
Jason Benn, National Office Director – Australia
Jason has been a high school teacher in Australia and Canada for 22 years. He first learned about Ratanak International through his wife, Eileen, who is from British Columbia and had supported the foundation for several years. Together with their three children, they have alternated between living in Canada and Australia, Jason's home country. After a few years of being no more involved than as a regular donor, it was a surprise in 2010 when the Ratanak office in Vancouver asked them to host Brian McConaghy while he was on a speaking tour of northern British Columbia. They were blessed by having the close personal experience of sharing their home with Brian and hearing him speak.
A year later and while living back in Australia, Jason was invited by Brian to spend a week in Cambodia with others from the UK and Canada. While there in 2011 he met Brian Harper and was able to attend a meeting of international Ratanak members in Phnom Penh. He was amazed to see how clearly evident the Gospel of Christ is being lived by the staff of Ratanak and partner organizations. After seeing transformation that is only possible with God, Jason felt called to be more involved. He has served on the board as chairman of Ratanak Australia since it became a registered company in 2013. After Brian Harper stepped down as national office director in 2015, Jason has taken on this position. He was part of the inaugural International Steering Committee meetings with other Ratanak national office directors from Canada, UK, USA and Cambodia.
Jason is a member of the Leadership Team at Swansea District Baptist Church and is an active member of Caves Beach Surf Lifesaving club. You can contact him at jason.benn@ratanak.org.

Q: Как отследить завершение процесса и скопировать определенный файл в другую папку? Задача возникла такая:
1) Отследить, когда закроется определенная программа (процесс)
2) После завершения программы (или процесса) создается файл, его нужно скопировать в другую директорию (название файла известно)
Пока что я не знаю как сделать ни то, ни другое. Хотелось бы узнать примерную реализацию сие задач.

A: Вот так можно узнать список процессов, как пропадет из списка ваш это можно узнать например через String.contains() выполняете перенос файла. Естественно для этого нужно создать поток new Tread или new Runnable в котором будет запрашиваться таск лист с какой-то периодичностью.
public class Main {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        try {
            String line;
            Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("tasklist");
            BufferedReader input =
                    new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
            while ((line = input.readLine()) != null) {
                System.out.println(line); //<-- Parse data here.
            }

Wedding DJ: One More Song
By Ken Szymanski | June 10, 2015
This dance, as well as my wedding DJ career, was supposed to end an hour ago. I started this job 17 years ago, as a way to make spare money on weekends. I quit "for good" several times—and have stayed retired for most of the 10 years I've been married. But now I'm back again, at a rustic northern Wisconsin resort, "one last time" as a favor for friends. There's no other civilization for miles. Here, there is music, free beer, and a major life event. They're not going anywhere.
How many encores are too many? We tried to end back at midnight with "Sweet Caroline," but the crowd got the "one more song" chant going, and we couldn't stop there.
Later, I tried to end it again after "Piano Man." Then more chanting, more dance music, and, finally, the apparent closing group sing-along: "Hey Jude."
The groom says to cut it off after this one, but when confronted by chanting crowd—and his own groomsmen—he gives me the sign to keep going. I want the night to end with a grand finale, but it's like predicting the stock market: no one knows when the peak hits until it's too late.
At this point, there aren't any top-tier dance songs left. Somebody asks for Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'." This isn't even dance music, but I play it anyway. With the push of a button, the crowd is full of air keyboards, air guitars … and with raised fists, raised drinks, they're singing themselves hoarse.
My wife has taken my two sons, amped up on kiddie cocktails and glow sticks, back to the hotel room. My seven-year old begged to stay longer, but his little brother was – like my sound system's amplifier – past the max and heading for a meltdown.
One groomsman slaps a twenty on the sound system. "Keep it going!" he says. "Only the really, really good stuff from here on out!"
Finally, an hour after the official end of the dance, the bartender notifies me that the facility is shutting down. Fulfilling one last desperate drunken request, I play "Sweet Caroline" … again. The families and friends sing along like they haven't heard this song in a decade. Last call comes and goes. The bar closes. I reluctantly shut down the system. People who can hardly stand up start planning after-parties.
After packing up, I walk through the parking lot, thinking about how this gig was one of the all-time best. And how, maybe, that would be the one to end on – for good this time.
Then a guy with a crooked tie points at me and shouts, "Hey, microphone guy!" He pauses to focus, then slurs, "You're good at that." That parking lot compliment might be the capstone of my career – a sincere, intoxicated, epitaph.
I get back to the hotel room, and my family has all crashed. It's completely dark, except for my three-year-old son's illuminated face. Clutching a green glow stick, he sleeps – still unwilling, or unable, to let it go.

Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome are two popular web browsers. A web browser is required to view the websites on the internet. There are number of web browsers available in the market and all of them are free to download. Firefox and Chrome are among them. Firefox is developed by Mozilla while Chrome is developed by search giant Google.
The company Mozilla developed the Firefox web browser. It is the same company that developed the Netscape web browsers. In November 2004, the first version of Firefox was released. Due to multitude of features and open source license, it gained a number of users even during its initial phase. After the first version, a number of versions have been launched which added improved security and more features.
The benefit of being open source is that any programmer can work on the code of this web browser. The programmers may improve the features of the browser or they can create options for themselves. Advanced privacy settings and pop-up blockers are some of the specialized features of the Mozilla Firefox. Tabbed browsing is also offered by this browser which means that users can open multiple websites in the same browser window and can easily switch in-between them.
Several advanced search options are also included in this browser. Firefox also has the ability to make Smart Keywords that work with favorite sites of the users. In this way, users can go to the information directly without opening unnecessary websites. There is a specialized Find bar that allows users to search within a text without opening additional prompt boxes.
Chrome is an internet browser developed by Google. It is one of the new web browsers available in the market. Minimalist approach is taken by Google Chrome in case of internet browsing. Although the browser looks simple but it has all the modern features possessed by other web browsers.
A number of new features are offered by Google Chrome. It has taken the process of tabbed browsing to the next level. When the browser is opened it shows the thumbnails of the most visited websites by the users instead of showing a blank page. In this way, users can directly navigate to the desired website.
The design of the browser may look simpler but Google believes that the browser has most advanced features. For example, if there is some conflict then the entire web session ends in the other web browsers but in Google Chrome, one tab freezes while other tabs continue to function in normal manner.
A number of ideas have been borrowed from other web browsers in Google Chrome. One of them is the URL bar which not only serves as an address bar but also acts as a search bar.
•	Firefox is developed by Mozilla while Chrome is developed by Google Corporation.
•	Google Chrome allows the feature of thumbnail view that allows users to navigate to the desired website more quickly but this feature is not present in Mozilla Firefox.
•	There is a single process for all tabs in Firefox but Chrome creates a different process for each tab.
•	Firefox is an old as well as stable web browser while Chrome being new is untested.


The awesome Ryann @ Ryann the Reader has nominated me for the Unique Blogger Award. Thank you so much, Ryann, you're the best!💞 For those who haven't already seen it, her blog is full of fantastic reviews and tags, so be sure to go give it a peek!
In the spirit of sharing love and solidarity with our blogging family, nominate 8-13 3 people for the same award.
I did karate as a child, but I don't find myself wanting to continue it at this time. I also did swimming, and I wanted to keep doing it, but where I did it, there are now no classes appropriate for my age at my level, so I'd have to find someplace else. Also, I *reluctantly* did gymnastics for a very short time, and now as I look back, I wish I'd told 5-year old me to be brave and just do it- I now find myself wanting to "restart" gymnastics!
What's the best piece of advice you've ever read or received?
If you guys don't feel like taking part in this award, it's completely okay with me, but I love all your blogs and I would love to see your answers to my questions!
So tell me, how would you answer my or Ryann's questions? Is there something you used to do as a child which you'd now like to continue? What is your favourite season and piece of advice? Let me know in the comments below.
Thank you so much for the tag! I'm going to get to this as soon as I can!!
I think I'd pick autumn as my favourite season as well because my birthday is in October!! 😀 But if we're considering the weather, I'd probably say I love spring the most! The weather isn't too hot or too cold, it's perfect!
I did gymnastics for eight years, competed for six and a half years. I also tried getting back into it, but it's not easy to do at all.
These are awesome! That is some great advice! And I love autumn, too! Everything gets so bright and colorful, but it also gets crisp and cool. Basically Autumn's the best!

Jews in the News: Ellen Barkin, Newton Minow and Aly Raisman
A Surprisingly Jewish Boxing Movie
"Hands of Stone" tells much of the life story of boxer Roberto Duran, now 65, who held several major titles in the 1970s and 1980s and is ranked as one of the best fighters of all-time. It got good, if not great reviews when it played the 2016 Cannes film festival. It depicts, sometimes in flashbacks, Duran's early life in Panama's slums. It also covers his major bouts leading up to his two epic title fights with Sugar Ray Leonard in 1980 (won first; lost second). Duran was trained by the almost legendary RAY ARCEL (1899-1994). Arcel, who is played by Robert DeNiro, coached dozens of champions in a career than began in the 1920s (including great Jewish champions like BENNY LEONARD and JACKIE "Kid" BERG.) Born Ramel Arcel, he was named after a grandfather who died in a pogrom. Unlike most boxing trainers of his era, Arcel was a mensch in his business dealings. Also, while you expect a boxing trainer to have street smarts, Arcel stood out because he also had school smarts (he graduated from Stuyvesant, a top New York City public high school that requires an admission exam).
The Hollywood Reporter says that DeNiro depicts Arcel as "a largely honorable, fatherly alta cocker in a sometimes grubby sport." ELLEN BARKIN, 62, and JURNEE SMOLLETT-BELL, 29, have supporting roles as, respectively, Arcel's wife and Leonard's wife. (Opens Friday, Aug. 26)
Reviews have heaped praise on Venezuelan actor Edgar Ramirez, who plays Duran. The director, JONATHAN JAKUBOWICZ, 37, is a Venezuelan of Polish Jewish descent. He also wrote the "Hands" screenplay. His first film, "Ships of Hope" (2000), is a documentary about Jewish refugees reaching Venezuela just before WWII. It won many awards and was broadcast by HBO throughout Latin America. His other big directorial hit is "Secuestro Express" (2005), an action/crime thriller which he also wrote. It became Venezuela's biggest grossing film of all-time, including imports like "Titanic" and "The Passion of the Christ."
One You Have to See: the Story of an Ultra-Mensch
I just caught a PBS TV airing of "Newton Minow: An American Story" and you really must see this documentary which can be viewed on PBS on-line in full, for free. If you know anything about NEWTON MINOW, a very spry 90, it's that he was the chairman of the FCC in the early 1960s and that he took TV broadcasters to task for offering viewers "a vast wasteland" of junky programs. But there's much more, including the remarkable way that Minow's life story touches on so many things, including very contemporary issues. Just a few examples: his parents were poor Jewish immigrants, but his mother fought to have Minow's older disabled brother get public schooling-- and how his brother's disability made the whole family better people; he clerked for the Supreme Court's Chief Justice at the time (1952) the famous school desegregation cases were pending-- and we learn about his early commitment-- at the court, at the FCC, and at his law firm, to racial and gender equality; how he was critical to the launching of communication space satellites and indirectly in the development of the computer chip; and it was his law firm that gave Michelle and Barack Obama their first law jobs—and it was at his firm they met and fell in love. The program ends with an apt Talmudic quote from one his three very accomplished daughters (another daughter is dean of Harvard Law School). Enough spoilers! Watch it!

The Olympics, In Context
Congrats to JO ALEH, 30 a New Zealander who won the bronze medal in the 470 dinghy class sailing competition (she won gold in 2012) and Aussie JESSICA FOX, 22, who won a bronze in the canoe slalom K-1 class (she won silver in 2012). It wasn't a great Olympics in terms of the number of Jewish Olympic winners or medals won. Still, if you think about, any medal won by a tribe member defies statistical odds. There are 7-8 billion people in the world and only 15 million are Jewish—that's a little over a tenth of one percent of the world's population. The 2016 Jewish medal count is 3 gold, 2 silver, and four bronzes. That total is better than most countries, including some with a population way above 15 million. All the more reason to be aware of and celebrate great athletes like Aleh, Fox, gymnast ALY RAISMAN (one gold, two silvers); swimmer ANTHONY ERVIN (two golds), and Israeli judo athletes OR SASSON, 26, and YARDEN GERBI, 27 (who both won bronze).
