Your skin can also look red, inflamed, flushed, or blushed.
Some people experience episodes of this symptom in association with an increase or decrease in their anxiety and stress, whereas others experience this symptom persistently regardless of an increase or decrease in anxiety and stress.
This symptom can occur anywhere on the body, can migrate to a different location or locations, and can come and go randomly without any reason. This symptom can occur rarely, frequently, or persist indefinitely. All variations and combinations are common.
What causes anxiety-related red skin?
The body releases stress hormones into the bloodstream whenever we become anxious (fretful, apprehensive, fearful). Stress hormones cause a number of physiological, psychological, and emotional changes in the body that prepare it for action when danger is perceived. These changes are commonly referred to as the Stress Response (also known as the Emergency Response or the "flight or fight" response).
Since the body contains a finite amount of blood, stress hormones cause the body to shunt blood around within itself so that the areas of the body vital for survival have more blood than those less important for survival. For example, blood is shunted away from the skin, hands, and feet and moved to the brain (so that the brain has more fuel to think), heart (so that the heart can pump suitable quantities of blood to the vital areas), and muscles (to make the body stronger and quicker).
The body moves its blood around by constricting blood vessels in certain areas of the body and by expanding blood vessels in other areas. Constricted blood vessels force blood away and expanded blood vessels allow blood to flow in. Because blood is normally regulated at 98.7 degrees Fahrenheit (37.056 degrees Celsius) and contains red blood cells, an increase in blood flow causes an increase in temperature and redness.
"Blushing" or "turning red" when nervous or embarrassed is an example of the physiological change that occurs when we're anxious. So in this instance, the 'red skin' appearance is caused by an active stress response. Yes, the stress response can affect each part of the body differently, which is why we can have a red spot in one area and not others.
Since the stress response is a normal part of the body's survival mechanism, stress-caused red skin isn't a reason for concern.
Moreover, sustained stress can cause stress-related symptoms, as well. For example, if you've been under a lot of stress lately, your body can build up a 'stress load' and exhibit symptoms of stress even though you may not feel stressed in that moment.
We explain this in much more detail in the Recovery Support area of our website.
How to get rid of the anxiety- and stress-caused red skin symptoms?
When this symptom is caused by an active stress response (triggered by being anxious, nervous, apprehensive), calming yourself down will bring an end to the stress response, which will bring an end to the stress response changes. As your body recovers from the stress response changes, this symptom should subside. Keep in mind that it can take up to 20 minutes or more for the body to recover from a major stress response. But this is normal and shouldn't be a cause for concern.
Nevertheless, when the body has fully recovered from being anxious and stressed, this symptom will completely disappear. Therefore, this symptom needn't be a cause for concern.
For a more detailed explanation about this symptom (and all the other symptoms), why symptoms can persist long after the stress response has ended, common barriers to recovery and symptom elimination, and more recovery strategies and tips, we have many chapters that address this information in the Recovery Support area of our website.

UNITED NATIONS (CNN) -- The U.N. Security Council voted unanimously Tuesday to approve a resolution that endorses the June 30 transfer of sovereignty in Iraq and gives authorization for a U.S.-led multinational force.
President Bush said the vote was a "great victory for the Iraqi people." Pakistan's U.N. ambassador called it the "most significant" diplomatic step on Iraq since the 1991 Gulf War.
Approval of the U.S.-British resolution came after weeks of intense negotiation, with many key diplomats seeking a better explanation of the multinational force's role after the June 30 handover.
France and Germany, two of the most strident opponents of the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, signaled their approval of the resolution late Monday.
The compromise resolution says the multinational force will serve "at the request of the incoming interim government of Iraq" and that the force can be asked to leave at anytime.
It also says the force will be able to take "all necessary measures to contribute to maintenance of security and stability" in Iraq and gives a 12-month deadline for the force to be reviewed. In addition, it asks member states to contribute to the force.
Under the resolution, the interim government will serve until national elections are held. The resolution says national elections will be held on December 31, 2004, if possible, and no later than January 31, 2005.
With U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan looking on, the 15 representatives of the Security Council member nations raised their hands at the horseshoe-shaped table after being asked if they supported Resolution 1546.
"The result of the voting is as follows: 15 votes in favor," said U.N. Security Council President Lauro Baja of the Philippines.
Feisal Amin Al-Istrabadi, the senior legal adviser to Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari, observed the vote in Iraq's chair.
"I very much welcome this. I think it is a good resolution in itself -- no less important is the fact that it has been adopted unanimously," Annan told reporters afterward.
"I believe it is a genuine expression of the will of the international community, led by the Security Council, to come together again after last year's divisions and to help the Iraqi people take charge of their own political destiny -- in peace and freedom -- under a sovereign government."
Speaking on Sea Island, in the southern U.S. state of Georgia where the Group of Eight economic summit was under way, Bush welcomed the resolution as Russian President Vladimir Putin stood at his side.
"The vote ... was a great victory for the Iraqi people," Bush said. "The international community showed it stands side by side with the Iraqi people. ... America supports strongly the idea of a free society in the midst of hatred and intolerance."
Putin called the resolution a "major step forward."
At the United Nations, both France and Germany expressed their solidarity with the resolution.
"Germany supports this resolution as an important step towards the restoration of full sovereignty of the Iraqi interim government in all relevant areas and towards Iraqi ownership," said Germany's U.N. ambassador, Gunter Pleuger.
French Ambassador Jean-Marc de La Sabliere noted that the recent negotiations were "demanding," but that the world body considered France's concerns.
"Our main concern has been taken into account, and this is why we think it is a good resolution," he said.
U.S. Ambassador John Negroponte hailed the resolution as an important milestone and "a vivid demonstration of broad international support" for the new Iraqi government.
"Resolution 1546 defines the key political tasks in which the United Nations shall play a leading and vital role to support Iraqi efforts. This resolution makes clear Iraq's sovereignty will be undiluted," Negroponte said.
Chinese Ambassador Wang Guangya described the resolution as a "milestone that marks an end to the past and a beginning of the future."
One of the strongest statements of support came from Munir Akram, Pakistan's ambassador to the United Nations.
"We view this resolution as the most significant step since the first Gulf War towards the full normalization of the situation in Iraq," he said.
U.N. envoy Lakhdar Brahimi has been a key point man in bringing about not only the resolution but also the formation of the interim government.
He told the council Monday that Iraq would need the world's assistance for some time to come.
"The days and weeks ahead will severely test this new government, and the solution to Iraq's current challenges will take years, not months, to overcome," Brahimi said.
In remarks Tuesday to the Council on Foreign Relations in New York, Zebari said "the significance of the resolution is really to take away the concept of occupation, which I would say is the reason for many of the difficulties we've been going through since liberation on April 9 [2003]."
He said the resolution would enhance the government's legitimacy.
"It will not be seen as purely an American-led administration."
On the subject of the need for coalition or multinational forces in Iraq, Zebari said: "We need these forces. It is an Iraqi need, more than an American or coalition need. The consequences would be catastrophic."
Zebari said "withdrawal would create a vacuum and we, the Iraqis, are not ready to fill it. There would be the possibility of a junior Saddam coming up again."

Vertical Farms Are Growing Up

by Dan Thompson
The future of farming can be found in Faribault, Minnesota. It might be one of most unlikely communities on the planet for such an important transition to occur.
The community of about 23,00 residents, which sits 50 miles south of Minneapolis, averages 45 inches of snow per year – 17 inches above the national average. The city extends across 15.67 square miles, but only .35 miles of that area is water. The number of sunny days (192) is far below the national average (205), and annual inches of rain (34) is also below the national average. Conditions for growing produce are certainly less than ideal.
But a 7,000-square foot-building in the Faribault Industrial Park holds an example of future farming. Living Greens Farm couples aspects of technology, agriculture, and science to produce fresh salads, microgreens and herbs.
With the addition of a new grow room in 2019, Living Greens Farm raised the total space of its aeroponic farm to 60,000 square feet. By growing vertically, Living Greens Farm uses 98 percent less land and 95 percent less water than traditional growing methods. The company's vertical plane design is the first of its kind and is more efficient than other aeroponic growing methods, and decreases labor by up to 60 percent.
After nearly a decade of research and development, Living Greens Farm and its aeroponic are poised to take advantage of advances in automation to help feed a growing population that want more organic products despite decreased land availability. In the long run, the example could bolster shortages in global supply.
Editor's Pick: 5 Ways to Make Roads More Sustainable
"We whole-heartedly believe indoor/vertical farming is the path forward for agriculture," said Nate Klingler, vice president of business development for Living Greens Farm. "Demand for food is growing, and demand for safe, delicious, and healthy food is growing at an even faster rate."
Rising Global Demand, Population
In 2016, a report from the World Health Organization said global hunger affected 815 million people, or about 11 percent of the world population. Violent conflicts and climate-related shocks resulted in an increase of 38 million more people fighting food security.
Fallout from COVID-19 further illustrated the world's issues with food security. The coronavirus disrupted the world supply chain, and the United Nations urged governments to take immediate measures. "Unless immediate action is taken, it is increasingly clear that there is an impending global food emergency that could have long-term impacts on hundreds of millions of children and adults,'' U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres said.
Further straining the world food supply is a fast-growing population. The world population is expected to grow by another 2 billion people by 2050. Some theories indicate agricultural production will need to grow by at least 70 percent over the next 30 years in order to keep up with food demand.
As the population grows, however, farmland is decreasing. In the United States, there were 4 percent fewer farms in 2012 than in 2007, continuing a long-term trend. A 2017 report found a two percent drop in acres of land in farms, with 34 states experiencing a reduction in land in farms. The age of farmers is also disconcerting. There are more than six times as many primary producers age 65 and older as primary producers 34 and younger.
The pandemic exposed the fragility of the global food supply, and the danger if dramatic steps are not taken. "We've never seen anything like this before,'' Arif Husain, chief economist at the World Food Program, said in in an article in the New York Times. "It wasn't a pretty picture to begin with, but this makes it truly unprecedented and uncharted territory."
While a nascent industry, vertical farming is growing rapidly. Business Wire reported vertical farming values in the United States are expected to reach $3 billion by 2024, growing at a compound annual growth rate of 24 percent through 2024.

Urban farms have been established in Cleveland, Chicago, New York, and other U.S. cities, but the nation is not alone in seeing growth in the industry. Canada and Mexico are also seeing promising vertical farming ventures. China is investing heavily in vertical farming, and Emirates Airlines in Dubai is investing $40 million to build the world's largest vertical farm. When complete, the farm will equal the output equivalent of 900 acres of farmland in a 130,000-square-foot building.
Vertical farming is also booming in many other land-scarce nations. Japan has approximately 200 lettuce factories, but that number is expected to double by 2025. Singapore, which has the world's third-highest population density, has more than 30 vertical farms. There was just one in 2012. In Singapore's 724 square kilometers, only one percent of the land area is used for agriculture.
Reader's Choice: Making a Greener Catalyst
"Whenever I talk about food security in Singapore, I tell folks don't think land – think space,'' Paul Teng, an agriculture professor at Nanyang Technological University told Reuters. "Because you can grow upwards and sideways."
Vertical farming businesses develop their own science and mechanical equipment for growing crops. Most use aeroponics, a process in which crops are grown in vertical stacks without the use of soil. The plants are sprayed with nutrient-rich water.
"Our products are grown indoors in exceptionally sanitary conditions away from all dangers that can cause foodborne illness," Living Greens Farm says. "No birds, canal water, insects, animals or the like are allowed in. The result? Beautiful, safe and delicious salads."
Finding the Perfect Balance
In the Living Greens Farm system, plant roots remain in the air 99.9 percent of the time and thrive under the perfect balance of light, air, humidity, and nutrition. "That opens up a lot of possibilities – including the fact that frozen ground during the winter is no longer an obstacle,'' the company says on its website.
Founder Dana Anderson, a former financial adviser who worked on farms as a Minnesota youth, was inspired by a NASA study that sought methods for growing plants in space. He started developing the technology in the garage of his Minnesota home, and the company officially launched in 2012 in the Faribault Industrial Park.

"We didn't invent aeroponics,'' Anderson said. "But we invented how to commercialize it. We feel aeroponics is the fastest and most disease-resistant way to grow."
The irrigation is controlled via custom developed software that controls all aspects of the farm. Everything from temperature and humidity, to wind speeds, light levels, and water amounts is controlled, eliminating weather vagaries. Anderson and his investors put up about $5 million into the research and development side of the business.
"Living Greens Farm was a science and engineering operation for many years while we worked to make our proprietary aeroponic grow systems commercially viable," Klingler said. "There were many challenges along the way. Many different versions of the systems were developed, tried, scrapped, or refined. That went on for years."
Water at the farm is distilled and treated to provide the plants what they need to thrive in a "spa-like" environment, Klingler said. "We use inorganic salts to enrich our water. Using inorganic salts allows our growers the ability to choose the individual components the plants need to survive and thrive," he explained. "Inorganic salts also enable the plants to be able to obtain the nutrients they need in the specific ionic form they prefer. Organic nutrients tend to be in a more basic form and the plant then has to expend energy to convert the organic nutrients into the form they need."
Patented Traverse System
Another critical component to the Living Greens process is a traverse system that includes a 16-foot energy chain manufactured by igus, the Germany-based manufacturer of motion plastics. The company runs its North American operations out of Providence, R.I.
The H4-32 energy chain from igus is frequently used in applications that require high speeds and/or accelerations, when quiet operation is required, and for long travels. It is also used in applications where high fill weights are needed, precisely the case with Living Greens.
A water line is set into the energy chain, and the system runs 24 hours a day and 7 days a week throughout the year. Living Greens has 74 traverse systems in place at its Minnesota location, and 12 more at a sister farm. Klingler said the company is also working to license its technology to people interested in starting their own farms in Europe, Asia, and Africa. Each energy chain disperses 130,000 gallons of water each day, about 5,417 gallons per hour.
"There are many moving irrigation systems for field crops and it's easy to understand when you see irrigation systems moving across a cornfield,'' Anderson said. "But what we own is a moving irrigation system for roots that allows for fewer nozzles and improved reliability. Instead of installing hundreds of thousands of nozzles in a full-scale facility, we just have to install hundreds."
Charles Jaskolka of igus, who recommended the energy chain, said the chain acts as a guide to keep the water line in place so it does not wander or get caught in the structure. "The benefit of an automated system is that it allows for better coverage when watering the plants," Jaskolka said. "It also doesn't over-saturate the plants because they get a dousing of water briefly and the water has a chance to soak in before they get their next drink."
Klingler said developing the traverse system was one of the challenges in the company's development. "We were working in a very small space," he said. "The carriage needs to travel a relatively lengthy distance with a heavy water line. The main feature that we liked about the igus energy chain was that we could incorporate water hose protection. Water is very important to our operation so protecting that source during delivery was essential."
Energy chains from igus are used in a wide range of applications. The dry-running chains require little maintenance and resist dirt and debris. Engineered composite plastic materials from igus are designed with base materials, fibrous reinforcements and solid lubricants that eliminate the need for external lubrication.
Less Space, Healthier Products
Each grow system at the Minnesota facility equals about one acre of traditional growing. At its 40,000- square-foot farm, Living Greens is capable of growing the typical yield of a 50-acre plus farm.
Its products are also unexposed to contaminants, such as birds flying overhead, dirty farm equipment, farmworkers with unwashed hands and polluted water. The operation uses no pesticides, herbicides or GMOs. In 2019, companies recalled romaine lettuce for the second straight year due to dangerous E. coli bacteria contamination concerns.
"Our team is obsessed with consistently producing the freshest and healthiest lettuce and micro-greens made on the planet,'' said Ken Sourbeck, general manager.
The "Air Grown" vertical system at Living Greens Farm reduces the need for land, energy, water, and space. The company grows leafy greens such as Romaine, Butter Lettuce, mixed greens, and basil. Photo: Living Greens Farm
Products also arrive at grocery store shelves quickly. Living Greens products are sold at stores in the upper Midwest, and can be on shelves the same day they leave the facility. Some produce in Minnesota grocery stores is shipped from California, requiring up to two weeks of travel time. "It can save several hundred thousand miles of shipping, saving over 35,000 gallons of diesel and nearly a million pounds of CO2 emissions," Anderson said when the company opened its third grow room in 2019.
As urban density increaes– the U.S. Department of Agriculture expects 66 percent of the population to be living in urban areas by 2050 – delivering fresh produce to major cities figures to be an even greater challenge.
The company has already seen astonishing growth. The American Business Awards reported company revenue grew 400 percent in 2018, with a 99 percent food safety audit score. The company has four patents, and many more on file.
The decline of traditional farming in the United States has extended for generations and continues unabated. Chapter 12 bankruptcies were up 50 percent in the Northwest from July 2018 to June 2019, and up 12 percent in the Midwest. The U.S. lost 12,000 farms between 2017 and 2018.
While traditional farming declines, vertical farming is ramping up quickly. With its technology in place, Living Greens Farm is ahead of many others in the rapidly evolving business. "With dwindling amounts of land that can be used for farming, as well as the decreasing amount of clean water available for farming it just makes sense," Klingler said. "Living Greens Farm plans to play a big part in this path forward and is excited to see what the future holds."

It's normal for someone to be angry. In fact, anger is a well-recognised emotion, and if you're feeling it, you are encouraged to express yourself. This is to ensure that such negative emotion doesn't start to build up inside. However, when your anger causes you to hurt yourself or other people, or when you feel like you can no longer control it, then it's a completely different story. Unless you are able to control it, it will surely cause your own destruction.
1. Acknowledge the reasons of your anger. The only way to get rid of your anger is to go to the root cause and deal with it. For instance, your anger toward your job may not really because you hate it but because it stresses you out. You may feel some hatred toward your wife because she's always late when, in fact, you just don't like the idea that she spends more of her time with the kids.
2. Count to 10. This takes a bit of practice, but it would definitely not be long before you get used to it. Counting to 10 doesn't only mean that you should not easily give in to your sudden bursts of emotion. It also means that you are given enough time to think about the situation and ask yourself if there is really some reason for you to be angry. Before you know it, you will realise that it's not something worth fighting for, and your anger has already dissipated.
3. Take a deep breath. You just don't know how a one long breath can save you from hurting someone or finding an enemy. Usually, when you're on the verge of anger, you experience of adrenalin rush, which then gives you a whole sense of power. Before you know it, you are already hurling invectives to yourself or to somebody else. Breathing can help keep calm your nerves and bring down your adrenalin down.
4. Focus on yourself. When you're angry, make it a point to consider your own feelings rather than those of others. Practice the "I statements." For example, express your frustration over your lack of time to finish a project rather than on other people's lack of commitment to work. This way, you really don't end up directing your anger to another person, and you can have more control over it since you only have yourself to think about.
5. Walk away. There are also others who would prefer to walk away before they can lose their ability to control themselves. You can do that too. If you feel like the entire discussion is turning to be a very heated argument and that you're prone to be very angry, you can excuse yourself and go someplace else. This will give you and even the other person more time to relax and think about what happened. You can just talk about it when you are both aware that you can be adult enough to talk about the situation.

Alimentación Social es un término acuñado por el Proyecto Social UBASO Unidad de las Bases Sociales / Rosario-Argentina. Director: Héctor O. Toviggino.

La alimentación social define la posibilidad de generar las energías humanas unificantes para la dignificación y el enaltecimiento de la convivencia social.
Es la apertura y promoción para la evolución humana. Esto implica la nueva economía de las energías humanas en el entretiempo de la modernidad y la post modernidad.

Para esta era, la Alimentología de la Paz irá fundamentando una nueva ciencia que incluye la condición humana e integra los principios de la Declaración Universal de los Derechos Humanos, reconociendo la relevante importancia de la naturaleza femenina de la mujer en su rol para la cultura de la vida sobre la base de la igualdad de los derechos.
Esta Alimentología regenera la holokinesis universal desde la epigénesis embriológica humana y se constituye a su vez en una síntesis ecológica incluyente.

La Alimentación Social define a la nutrición como la fuente existencial del individuo, la familia y la sociedad.
La síntesis de la alimentación con lo social plantea nuevas perspectivas para la resolución de las graves crisis que se reproducen en el mundo de hoy.

Historia
El origen inmemorial de la Macrobiótica (visión macrobiótica) -difundida en Occidente por George Ohsawa- y su universalidad en distintas culturas y tiempos de la historia del hombre -del Extremo Oriente hasta América del Sur- la constituyen en un inapreciable bien para la existencia de la humanidad en la tierra.
Y se imbrica en las distintas etapas del proceso de humanización -desde la embriogénesis (en la primera etapa nutricia de las células) hasta la conformación y desarrollo del individuo y la nueva familia, en la realidad social que se nutre de los elementos constitutivos provenientes del mundo subatómico y molecular.

Esta Alimentación Social crea las condiciones para la adaptabilidad a la realidad enmarcada en la nueva era actual y fundamenta la continuidad del proceso de evolución humana en la tierra.

Attorney General Todd Rokita seeks dismissal: ACLU joining with fake news to waste taxpayer money over a bruised ego
Updated at 1:15 pm on March 4, 2022
Attorney General Todd Rokita has filed a motion to dismiss a lawsuit challenging the logistical setup of a press conference held last fall at his Statehouse office.
"My accessibility to the media, as well as my record of transparency, are well-known to anyone who has followed my career," Attorney General Rokita said. "Journalists have never complained – because they have no reason to complain – about not having access to or information from my office. If anything, their complaint has been that my office provides too much information.
"Interruptions such as this complaint will not sidetrack me or my office from our work of fighting for commonsense Hoosier values while safeguarding constitutional liberties."
Attorney General Rokita and his office have answered thousands of press questions and participated in more than 150 media interviews since taking office nearly 14 months ago. During that same period, he sent out more than 130 press releases and was mentioned or quoted in more than 14,000 published news stories. He communicated via Twitter more than 600 times and via Facebook more than 570 times. This resulted in tens of thousands of responses from Hoosiers.
At an Oct. 14 press conference, the office provided universal real-time access to everyone via digital livestream in addition to an in-person opportunity. Like the in-person audience, viewers of the Facebook livestream could post questions during the event, whether they claimed to be journalists or not.
The ACLU sued the Attorney General, claiming that the livestream option "did not allow for questions or the informal interactions that frequently occur with officials prior to or after formal press conferences." The lawsuit claims First Amendment rights were violated.
The Attorney General's brief, filed Wednesday in federal district court, notes that a long line of judicial precedent makes abundantly clear that the First Amendment does not protect a right to hear a government official in-person rather than through a live video feed or to engage in "informal interaction" with a public official, as the plaintiff incorrectly claims.
"In fact," the Attorney General's brief reads, "no federal court has ever ordered a public official to take and answer questions from a particular journalist or news commentator, or held that the First Amendment is implicated by a public official not taking questions from a particular journalist."
Attorney General Rokita continues to make himself and his office easily accessible to media and all Hoosiers interested in asking serious questions or sharing thoughts.
"The ACLU is trying to make a federal case over a bruised ego," Attorney General Rokita said. "It should not waste the court's time or taxpayers' resources. We remain focused on doing the important work the good people of Indiana have elected us to do."


When big news breaks, it's easy to engage in online history. While the Internet – including major news sites and social media such as Twitter – provides useful information, it can also lead to false information. Helping children and adolescents understand the news, and how to separate facts and fiction, is an important task for parents and educators.
Here are some tips parents can offer to children and teenagers to help them be more sophisticated readers when they consume online news.
Keep in mind that breaking news is often wrong. In the rush to tell stories, reporters make mistakes, officials do not always have correct information and evidence that the sound seems plausible before someone checks for accuracy. The most famous example, when the Chicago Daily Tribune reported on its presidential election in 1948, was featured on their front page, "Dewey Defeats Truman," when the truth was indeed the opposite.
Be skeptical. If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is. After the bombing of the Boston Marathon, NBC Sports reported Some runners ran all the way to the hospital Donate blood for the victims. Not true. There are many websites that deal with exposing counterfeit news stories, such as Snopes, Urban Legends Online, and FactCheck. Visit them to find out if a story is true.
Step back; take a break With social media at your fingertips, it's tempting to weigh your opinion or share any update. However, restraint is necessary to avoid amplifying the noise and confusion. We like the sensible approach of NPR reporter Steve Inskeepwho warned the audience during a day of news: "We collect points. It's a day to be careful when you connect them. "
Stick to credible news sources. News sources claiming to have all the answers or to come to conclusions about why something happened only contribute to that. And remember that cable news channels make money with the news – the more annoying the story, the more eyeballs look on and the more money they make. Make sure that you and your children are not victims of false news.
Keep it age appropriate. Younger teens and children are not always ready to digest big, tragic news – especially when it comes to children, such as shootings or abuse scandals. The constant repetition of information can be overwhelming and confusing for younger children. At the beginning of a news event, parents may not be reassured. Children who want to know more about specific events can engage with child-oriented news sources.

At Redemption we work hard to evaluate everything we do. The underlying conviction behind this is the belief that everything can always be better. We can always lead more effectively, execute more efficiently, and create with more quality.
We've created a simple strategy that we filter every aspect of every ministry through and we call it D3 Leadership. Here's how it works.
Imagine your doctor diagnoses your sickness, prescribes a solution, but then you don't do what they tell you to do. Identification without implementation is pointless. Driving to the finish is all about execution. It means doing whatever it takes to get it done. Most people can see a problem, many can even find a solution, but few follow through to completion.
D3 Leadership may sound simple, but we continue to find that most of our leadership headaches stem from a failure to execute one of these skills. So, we talk about it, coach against it, and strive for it. I want to lead a team that solves problems and overcomes obstacles and D3 Leadership is helping us accomplish this task.

Q: Expanding Data Validation Boxes I've got several data validation dropdown boxes across the top row of a spreadsheet. I'm using the following code to expand the box size (to help the users see their options) upon selecting the cell. I'm having problems getting the VBA script to ignore columns A:C upon returning the columns to normal width. These columns should be fixed at 20 and the others returned to 8.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
  If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
  If Intersect(Target, Range("D1:AP1")) Is Nothing And Target.Columns <> "A1:C1" Then
    ActiveWindow.Zoom = 100
     Target.Columns.ColumnWidth = 8
  Else
    ActiveWindow.Zoom = 120
     Target.Columns.ColumnWidth = 30
  End If
End Sub

A: If I have understand well, the code shall be like:
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then
    Exit Sub
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End If
Set xx = Application.Intersect(Target, Range("D1:AP1"))
If xx Is Nothing Then
    ActiveWindow.Zoom = 100
    For i = 4 To 42
        If Columns(i).Hidden = False Then Columns(i).ColumnWidth = 8
    Next
Else
    ActiveWindow.Zoom = 120
    Target.Columns.ColumnWidth = 30
End If
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

The control of the Target cor Columns A:C shall be made after.
Also I prefer to chaneg all the width for columns D:AP when you return ...
I have a little bit chaged the code... Adding the check if are Hidden, and with the line Application.ScreenUpdating, the code show only at the end.
I have also removed code non necessary (some if ...).

Why did you give up on the sound that made you great? Intoxication? White lies? You have foresaken your identity. I hope you make more money with the new sound. I hope it doesn't come at the expense of you bring you.
The wait for this album has been rough. Mainly because with each single released the more i wanted to hear this album. Max Frost did not disappoint. Each song is like a fun adventure through not only different genres but different emotions. I can't stop listening to the album and every time i do, I find something else to love about it. This album is definitely worth the listen and I'm excited for what's to come from him.
I've been following Max for a while now. His music is inspirational and fun all at the same time! This album reflects that! I love most of the tracks. Once again Max does it again with a great album!


WAYNESBORO — The Waynesboro varsity wrestling team defeated Shippensburg 65-9 on Thursday night to clinch the 2018-19 Mid-Penn Colonial Division championship and, for all intents and purposes, a berth in the District 3-AAA team tournament.
The Indians (13-2, 6-0 MPC) fought off perennial contenders Big Spring and Boiling Springs during a season in which head coach David Swink was highlighted by excellent senior leadership. Those seniors were honored before the meet as part of Senior Night.
While the season is not quite over (Waynesboro is back in action today at the two-day New Oxford Invitational tournament), the rat race is. Ahead is more competition, giving each wrestler an opportunity to tweak what needs tweaking and waiting for its first-round opponent in the team tournament.
The cut off is Saturday, Jan. 26, and the tournament begins on Jan. 29 for the top 16 teams. Teams are selected based on their rankings in the district power rating. Waynesboro entered the night ranked 10th.
"Senior leadership has led us the whole way," Swink said. "They came ready to wrestle. They have put in a lot of hard work all season. They bought into what we were doing, lifting weights three to four days a week, and they believed in what we were doing."
The seniors who were introduced were Corby Fogelsonger, Laken Rouzer, Matt McCann, Bryan Layman, Will Shimmel, Joe Baker, Sean Schock and Raul Shatzer.
The last time Waynesboro competed in the district team championship was the 2008-09 season under head coach Eric Mowen. Swink's son, Isaac, was a member of the team.
Waynesboro was awarded forfeits in two of the first four bouts (152 and 182 pounds). Sandwiched in between were pins by Adam Wertz (160) and Hayden Reichard (170). Wertz parlayed a takedown into a three-point nearfall and recorded the fall in 37 seconds. Reichard was tied at 2-2 when he garnered a pin in 1:42.
The lead swelled to 47-0 with four more wins. At 195, Baker scored a quick takedown and remained in control until he pinned Eric Baker in 44 seconds. Schock also scored on a rapid takedown before gaining a fall in 28 seconds at 220 pounds. Shatzer dominated Shawn Hess, scoring on a takedown and two three-point nearfalls and opening the scoring in the second period with a takedown and a pin in 3:32 at 285 pounds.
Freshman Bodie Rouzer followed with another dominating performance at 113 pounds, recording a fall in 3:17. He led 7-0 after the first quarter and worked for a reversal to start the second period.
Shippensburg's Jeffrey Russell decisioned freshman Kaden Rouzer at 120 pounds, who staved off a major decision by earning an escape point in the third period. Greyhounds' 126-pounder Dylan Ramsey registered a fall against Will Shimmel in 1:03.
The Indians won the last three matches, beginning with a 44-second pin by Laken Rouzer at 132 pounds.
At 138, McCann started slowly but picked up steam, using a combination of strength and quickness to earn a third-period pin against Kohl Holderbaum with a cradle. McCann fought off a takedown attempt and then broke the ice with a takedown to take a lead he wouldn't lose. He applied a cradle in the second period, resulting in a five-point move to lead 7-0 after four minutes. After escaping from the down position to start the third period, McCann maneuvered for another takedown before sealing the win with the pin.
Bryan Layman worked for a 9-1 major decision in the 145-pound match.


"Antigal UNO 2012 is a one of a kind Malbec whose luscious black and red berry fruit is brightened by natural acidity and supported by firm but ripe tannins. The wine's unique personality reflects the outstanding quality of grapes hand harvested from our vineyards high on the Andes foothills; its smoothness and purity of flavor evince the gentleness of gravity flow winemaking. Barrel aged for eight months in French and American oak, Antigal UNO carries cedar and vanilla spice notes through a lingering finish. Enjoy this exceptional wine with red meat entrees, grilled vegetables, and semi-firm cheeses."

Demand and supply in different parts of the country is very different and quite seasonal. For this reason, we, like most colleagues, can not have the same cars at different points declared as car rental locations. In other words, the availability of cars is proportionate to the demand for the service, and in certain areas of the country some categories of cars have no demand at all or it is extremely low. This means that a certain type of car hired in one city and returned to another city can wait months to follow client to use it. This is what this fee is in most cases unlike some European, American and others. more developed countries where this is a normal practice repeatedly occurring on a daily basis.

READING BEHIND BARS
A True Story of Literature, Law, and Life as a Prison Librarian
Jill Grunenwald
A must-read prisoner memoir for fans of Orange is the New Black.
In December 2008, twentysomething Jill Grunenwald graduated with her master's degree in library science, ready to start living her dream of becoming a librarian. But the economy had a different idea. As the Great Recession reared its ugly head, jobs were scarce. After some searching, however, Jill was lucky enough to snag one of the few librarian gigs left in her home state of Ohio. The catch? The job was behind bars as the prison librarian at a men's minimum-security prison. Talk about baptism by fire.
As an untested twentysomething woman, to say that the job was out of Jill's comfort zone was an understatement. She was forced to adapt on the spot, speedily learning to take the metal detectors, hulking security guards, and colorful inmates in stride. Over the course of a little less than two years, Jill came to see past the bleak surroundings and the orange jumpsuits and recognize the humanity of the men stuck behind bars. They were just like every other library patron—persons who simply wanted to read, to be educated and entertained through the written word. By helping these inmates, Jill simultaneously began to recognize the humanity in everyone and to discover inner strength that she never knew she had.
At turns poignant and hilarious, Reading behind Bars is a perfect read for fans of Orange is the New Black and Shakespeare Saved My Life.
