Chic Tweak Welcomes Two More Brands!
I did an article on Chic Tweak in February and I mentioned some of the wonderful brands available on their site. Now Chic Tweak is happy to announce the two newest additions to their online scarf boutique – Diane von Furstenberg and Shelli Segal!
Diane von Furstenberg, one of America's iconic designers, founded her collection in 1972. Today, the brand continues to represent the luxurious lifestyle of a chic New York City woman. New to Chic Tweak, DVF is one brand that simply cannot go ignored!
Scarves from the collection range from $145 to $165.
Laundry by Shelli Segal is meant to encapsulate the true spirit of the "LA Girl." Feminine and flirty, the scarves embody the free-spirited attitude of a modern LA woman. Launched in 1988, the collection continuously incorporates the latest trends into its signature looks.
Scarves from the collection range from $21.50 to $25.
Chic Tweak – Scarf Wonderland!
I love wearing scarves! With winter in full force (breezy Spring for LA), scarves are the go to accessory for fashion forward women regardless of their climate. They offer functionality, versatility and a pop to any outfit. When I was alerted of Chic Tweak and given a beautiful, colorful scarf to rock around town I was excited to share this newfound website with you!
Some only wear it one way, but Chic Tweak can help you re-think the way you wear your go-to accessory! Being indoors doesn't always assure warmth. Wear your scarf as a wrap when you're seated by the door at the hottest new restaurant, or when the heating system at your office isn't quite doing the trick on those extra chilly winter days.
The modern-loop is a fresh take on a classic look. Fashionable no matter how it's worn, the loop allows you to don your scarf loose and flowing for a layering effect, or tighter for a polished look that provides optimal warmth when the mercury dips.
Another way to wear it is Celeb style. For the glam look you can wear it this way and turn heads. Be ready to strike a pose! Be sure to check out this website and see the some of the most hottest scarves and the many ways you can stand out just by a tweak of your look!

Ratoath fell agonisingly short in this highly competitive hurling game between two evenly matched teams, played on a cold dry evening in Dunshaughlin. The game began with Trim's Beano Dowling opening the scoring, as both teams settled early with Ratoath replying with points from Tadhg McCann & Padraig " Podge" O'Hanrahan. Alan Douglas and then Dowling tagged on the next 4 points to give their side an early lead, but this lead was soon pegged back with Podge converting a number of frees. Ben and Daithi McGowan with a point each put Ratoath in front, but Beano continued to be a thorn in Ratoath's side with his unerring accuracy from frees. Still Dave O'Reilly's charges had their noses in front when a well taken goal from Douglas on the stroke of half time put Trim ahead at the interval: 1-8 to 0-9.
It was Ratoath who were first out of the blocks in the second half, with Jack McGowan and frees from Podge raising three white flags in a row to put the men in blue and gold a point ahead. That though was as good as it got for Ratoath, as Neil Heffernan grabbed the men in Red's crucial second goal in the 37th minute. Podge, his brother Sean and Gavin McGowan continued to take the fight to the opposition with points of their own and with 10 minutes to go the game was still anybody's with Trim leading 2-11 to 0-15. There was still only three points in it when Daithi McGowan stooped to get the final touch to the back of the net from Dara Kelly's long range free in the 57th minute. Ultimately though it was Dowling's expertise from placed balls that proved the difference converting a brace of frees, as they eventually ran out two point winners.

by Liz Dupont-Diehl | Mar 16, 2012 | Press Release
BRIDGEPORT – Ex-offenders, advocates and employers from throughout the region will be honored at the 1st Bridgeport Reentry Collaborative Award Ceremony on March 26th from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM at Housatonic's Beacon Hall Events Center. Over 80 awardees will receive recognition in such areas as Outstanding Student, Advocacy, Personal Achievement, Business Partner of the Year and Community Partner of the Year. Awards will be presented by Bridgeport State Representative Andres Ayala, William Carbone, Director of Court Support Services Division, State of CT, Dr. Patrick Hynes, Director, Office of Best Practices, CT Department of Correction, Rina Bakalar, Executive Director of Workforce Competitiveness, CT Department of Labor, Bridgeport Mayor Bill Finch, Michael Lawlor, Deputy Secretary, CT Office of Policy and Management, U.S. District Judge Stefan Underhill, Jarvis Johnson, Aide to U.S. Congressman Jim Himes.

However, last week U.S. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis suggested that diplomacy should be the priority in the South China Sea.
China sets great store on Mattis' comments stressing diplomatic efforts in the South China Sea, as this is not only the position set by China and Southeast Asia but also the "correct choice" for countries outside the region, Wang said.
China claims most of the South China Sea, while Taiwan, Malaysia, Vietnam, the Philippines and Brunei claim parts of the waters that command strategic sea lanes and have rich fishing grounds along with oil and gas deposits.

I see you, you've been buckling down at becoming your Instagram following. Your adherents? They're quite incredible and you cherish serving them yet are stuck on the subsequent stage: how to really get them to function with you, click a connection, or purchase your items. Selling straightforwardly on Instagram can feel shabby yet what's the point in investing this time and vitality making content there in case you're not ready to attach really results to such diligent work? Changing over Instagram adherents into paying customers is what it's about and given me a chance to tell you the best way to achieve that!
"However, there are elective techniques by which you can achieve success if utilized effectively." – Socialpushers.
Consider this: Instagram isn't the end diversion. Pause, what? Is it accurate to say that you are astonished to hear this from me? I need to set you up to be prominent as well as to be beneficial and a great deal of Instagram instruction out there is disregarding the way that Instagram isn't and shouldn't be our end diversion. It's essential to have a PLAN for your devotees after they connect with you via web-based networking media. When we take a gander at a number under our name as the "end amusement" we're overlooking that except if that number is doing anything for us past boosting our sense of self, it's not moving the needle in our organizations.
keen in considering: where do we need them to finish up?
When you welcome your supporters off of the application, you're stretching out an opportunity for them to encounter your image and business in another manner. It is safe to say that you are welcoming them to come spend time with you off of Instagram?
Where are you sending them? Is it your site? Blog? Pick in page? Study or survey? Member page? Your Shop? A contact structure? Responding to this inquiry obviously and in view of a set objective will enable you to direct people to the correct spots to support activity from your devotees and eventually drive benefits.
I need you to conceptualize: where do you need your devotees to finish up with you and your image? Is it booking you? Obtaining from you? Reaching you? When you know the true objective: sell your course, your item, your administration, your offer, it's imperative to consider what steps somebody should take so as to turn into a buyer from you.
If I somehow happened to sneak over to your feed, does each and every post contain a "suggestion to take action?" If you're scratching your jawline and considering, "If it's not too much trouble Jenna, don't come take a gander at my last posts!" It may be a great opportunity to consider what activities you're requesting that your devotees take when they are drawing in with your image. Toward the finish of each and every post, you ought to have the capacity to ask yourself: what activity do I need my adherents to take? Furthermore, have an unmistakable, brief answer. Is it true that you are thinking about how you can welcome your adherents to connect with you elsewhere on the web?

Many Legion Coaches wish to know if it is proper to place a Flag Patch onto a team's uniform. The National Americanism Commission has made the interpretation that it is permissible to place a Flag Patch onto the team's uniform. The Flag Code does not address the issue where a patch should be worn, however if a flag patch is sewn onto a Legion baseball uniform, the field of blue should be to the upper left closest to the heart. Therefore coaches should use common sense. The flag we wear appears to most as backwards, however it symbolizes the flag of our Country as It were blowing in the wind as a player moves and runs – Its natural flow. The Flag as a symbol of this Great Nation is to be worn on all uniforms with HONOR, DIGNITY AND RESPECT for which it stands. To learn more about proper flag etiquette, click on the flag.

Lima or Miami? | Blog the world!!!
Sometimes you arrive at a city and fall in love with it, sometimes you hate it and sometimes it surprises you in a way you'd never expected.
Lima is a long way south of Miami, it's 7 or 8 (depending on which border you use) countries south of the US. But when you head to Miraflores you could be forgiven for thinking you'd missed your intended destination and arrived in the big, shiny states.
Now I haven't actually been to the US, but I have seen CSI Miami, and Miraflores (the beach area of Lima) looks just like it… but with less guns and murder.
Miraflores is the affluent part of Lima, full of jogging expats and rich locals in fancy suits. It's also packed with tourists all filing into the huge shopping centre built into the cliff. Oh and need I mention, there's a picturesque pebbly beach to sit on. It also has some awesome surf or waves or whatever the word is for the kind of sea surfers like.
We enjoyed a stroll along the beach, took some pictures of the pier (which looks a lot like the one in Clevedon, Tim's home town close to Bristol) and enjoyed an ice lolly on the pebbles. But then we were hungry and Miraflores is a long way out of our price range. So we headed to the bohemian district of Barranco.
Barranco is the complete opposite of big shiny Miraflores, it looks exactly as you'd expect South America to look. Colourful houses, cactuses and people playing banjo type instruments in the street. Even better it has plenty of restaurants and hostels.
We chose a rooftop restaurant that overlooked the sea. It was still quite expensive for us, but half the price of Miraflores. It was also the setting for our first Ceviche – Peru's favourite dish.
Ceviche is a dish of mixed raw fish in a tangy lime sauce and everyone in Peru will try to get you to eat it. We took the plunge. I don't enjoy eating raw fish, I've only just come round to cooked fish, but for some reason I've consumed a lot of it on this trip. As with the other dishes, I loved the sauce… I just wish they'd give me something non slimy to dip in it.
Once we finished our lunch, we had another wander around the area before heading back to the Historical district where we were staying. Wandering around the historical district is completely different again, in fact you could be forgiven for thinking you'd missed your intended destination again and ended up in a strange universe where Spain and London merge. There is a palace that holds a changing of the guard ceremony, similar to the one in London and big colonial buildings with fancy Spanish balconies.
It's also a great place to get cheap street food. My favourite is the papads – a large fried mash potato croquette type thing with mince and onions inside. But we also tried another Peruvian speciality, beef hearts on sticks. It is surprisingly tender and, if you like meaty meat, rich and delicious. I think it could be compared to liver, but you'll have to judge for yourselves as I've not managed to get past the smell to really try it.
So that concludes our journey of Lima, a big city, but well worth a visit all the same.

Darius Rucker's Home Coming at The Grand Ole Opry
Goin' home is the best feeling in the world especially if you have been away for a long time. Initially, the first thing that you will do is to hug your loved ones and spend time with them. Just like the saying goes, "There's no place like home".
"The Home Coming"
Darius Rucker is an American singer-songwriter and he gained popularity as the lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist of the rock band "Hootie and The Blowfish". Thus, the band released five studio albums and they charted six top 40 hits on Billboard Hot 100.
A post shared by Country Photos (@countryphotos17)
However, sometime around 2008 he signed a contract with Capitol Nashville and made his debut as a Country Singer. As a result, he then released his second album "Learn to Live" and its single "Don't think I Don't Think About it" that reached no. 1 in Hot Country Songs. This was a big achievement, making him the second black artist to reach the number one spot since the legend Charlie Pride in 1983.
"The Show That Made Country Music Famous" was one of the slogans of Grand Ole Opry. By the way, Opry is a weekly Country Music stage concert operating in Nashville, Tennessee. In fact, this is the longest running radio broadcast and most of the biggest names in country music set foot on their stage.
After Rucker's performance on Opry, his friend, Brad Paisley made an appearance from the audience. At first, he seemed surprised and didn't know what's happening until Praisely asked the one million dollar question,
"Would you like to be the newest member of The Grand Ole Opry?"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHutGIIGtbM
The crowd cheered and it seemed that they really wanted to see Rucker perform again. Even more, the offer made him teary-eyed so he turned his back to wipe his tears. To this date, he is still active on the Opry and still performing what the fans wanted to hear.
Any thoughts? Tell us what you think. Don't forget to like and share this post. Share the country spirit, folks! For more country reads, visit our website. Follow us also on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

MNsure health exchange scheduled to go live Tuesday afternoon
Minnesota consumers will be able to shop for coverage and compare plans, apply for public health programs and calculate tax credits for their income level.
By James Nord
MNsure, the state's health insurance exchange, is scheduled to go live Tuesday afternoon after several last-minute test and security checks, officials said Monday.
The exchange will make Obamacare's initial deadline, they said, though it will come online later in the day than originally planned.
Using the exchange, Minnesota consumers will be able to shop for coverage and compare plans, apply for public health programs and calculate tax credits for their income level. Small businesses will be able to begin defining what sort of coverage employees will be able to get later this winter.
There will be some hiccups with in-person assistance, and exchange staff have asked American Indians to hold off getting coverage for the first week the exchange is operational while tweaks are made.
But exchange officials said the mood at MNsure was positive.
"People have been working very hard," MNsure Executive Director April Todd-Malmlov told reporters during a Monday afternoon conference call. "There's a lot of excited people over here to finally be hitting Oct. 1."
Supporters estimate the exchange will serve more than 1.3 million Minnesotans in the coming years. Tuesday's launch marks open enrollment, which will go through March.
Early Tuesday, final security and connectivity checks to the federal system will be conducted, Todd-Malmlov said. She assured state lawmakers last week that the embattled exchange wouldn't go live if any "smoking guns" or security risks were identified prior to launch.
Chris Buse, Minnesota's chief information security officer, reiterated that point at the same oversight meeting.
"At this point in time, we don't see a list of those showstopper issues from a security perspective," Buse told DFL Rep. Joe Atkins, an exchange leader in the Legislature. "But until the final review is done, I'm reluctant to give an answer that we're good to go at this point."
Naomi Rettke, a spokeswoman for Minnesota's IT agency, said Monday afternoon that ongoing security checks hadn't identified any serious issues. She said those checks would continue Tuesday, when the federal hub is supposed to become operational. Rather than a final, "jumbo" review, the state will continue ongoing tests.
"There have been no smoking guns," Rettke said. "But they are going to continue to test."
Todd-Malmlov also told reporters that the federal government shutdown that began Tuesday likely wouldn't affect Minnesota's exchange. President Barack Obama told reporters on Monday that the law is moving forward.
"We are not anticipating that we will have any problems related to a potential government shutdown based on the information that we're hearing," Todd-Malmlov said Monday. "That's not to say we won't hear anything different."
While MNsure officials say the basic functions of the exchange will be available today, in-person help won't be available until Wednesday. Todd-Malmlov said health-insurance navigators and brokers need to finish training, get background checks and get access to the system.
Todd-Malmlov estimated the state is working with 5,000 individuals who will help consumers get insurance.
The exchange's call center averaged about 400 calls a day in mid-September, according to internal MNsure documents obtained by MinnPost. The call center will not be able to actually enroll consumers, she said, but will assist with enrollment once MNsure is online.
Todd-Malmlov said it's unlikely there will be a big rush to enroll early on, although many interested consumers may check out the system's features in the first days.
"We will be able to process applications and facilitate that enrollment process and purchase starting tomorrow," she said. "We don't anticipate there will be a lot of enrollment coming in through the first couple weeks."
Gov. Mark Dayton, who has been briefed at least daily on the health insurance exchange for more than a week, has long defended the law. He and Todd-Malmlov said the federal government had delayed opening its side of the exchange infrastructure until 7 a.m. Tuesday.
That means MNsure won't be up and running until the afternoon, though a specific time is unclear.
The governor has long defended the law against critics, especially Republicans who have ganged up on the exchange in recent weeks.
"I think MNsure is in phenomenal shape, compared to any other state system and certainly compared to the federal government," Dayton told reporters on Monday. "They've been working on it around the clock."

MNsure health exchange scheduled to go live Tuesday afternoon

"People have been working very hard," MNsure Executive Director April Todd-Malmlov told reporters during a Monday afternoon conference call. "There's a lot of excited people over here to finally be hitting Oct. 1."

Supporters estimate the exchange will serve more than 1.3 million Minnesotans in the coming years. Tuesday's launch marks open enrollment, which will go through March.

Early Tuesday, final security and connectivity checks to the federal system will be conducted, Todd-Malmlov said. She assured state lawmakers last week that the embattled exchange wouldn't go live if any "smoking guns" or security risks were identified prior to launch.

Chris Buse, Minnesota's chief information security officer, reiterated that point at the same oversight meeting.

"At this point in time, we don't see a list of those showstopper issues from a security perspective," Buse told DFL Rep. Joe Atkins, an exchange leader in the Legislature. "But until the final review is done, I'm reluctant to give an answer that we're good to go at this point."

Naomi Rettke, a spokeswoman for Minnesota's IT agency, said Monday afternoon that ongoing security checks hadn't identified any serious issues. She said those checks would continue Tuesday, when the federal hub is supposed to become operational. Rather than a final, "jumbo" review, the state will continue ongoing tests.

"There have been no smoking guns," Rettke said. "But they are going to continue to test."

Todd-Malmlov also told reporters that the federal government shutdown that began Tuesday likely wouldn't affect Minnesota's exchange. President Barack Obama told reporters on Monday that the law is moving forward.

"We are not anticipating that we will have any problems related to a potential government shutdown based on the information that we're hearing," Todd-Malmlov said Monday. "That's not to say we won't hear anything different."

While MNsure officials say the basic functions of the exchange will be available today, in-person help won't be available until Wednesday. Todd-Malmlov said health-insurance navigators and brokers need to finish training, get background checks and get access to the system.

Todd-Malmlov estimated the state is working with 5,000 individuals who will help consumers get insurance.

The exchange's call center averaged about 400 calls a day in mid-September, according to internal MNsure documents obtained by MinnPost. The call center will not be able to actually enroll consumers, she said, but will assist with enrollment once MNsure is online.

 Todd-Malmlov said it's unlikely there will be a big rush to enroll early on, although many interested consumers may check out  the system's features in the first days.

"We will be able to process applications and facilitate that enrollment process and purchase starting tomorrow," she said. "We don't anticipate there will be a lot of enrollment coming in through the first couple weeks."

Gov. Mark Dayton, who has been briefed at least daily on the health insurance exchange for more than a week, has long defended the law. He and Todd-Malmlov said the federal government had delayed opening its side of the exchange infrastructure until 7 a.m. Tuesday.

That means MNsure won't be up and running until the afternoon, though a specific time is unclear.

The governor has long defended the law against critics, especially Republicans who have ganged up on the exchange in recent weeks.

"I think MNsure is in phenomenal shape, compared to any other state system and certainly compared to the federal government," Dayton told reporters on Monday. "They've been working on it around the clock."

James Helm joins Portland
Toby Orr
I am delighted to announce we have appointed James Helm as a Partner in the specialist Philanthropy and Global Issues team, where he will support our growing roster of global development clients and provide counsel to clients across the agency.
Formerly the Director of Communications at the UK's Department for International Development (DFID), there are few people who know more about global development and global campaigns. We are thrilled to have him in our expanding team.
James joined DFID in 2010 and led an award-winning communications team during the Ebola crisis in West Africa, and the UK's humanitarian response to Syria, and made the case for the UK's increasing aid budget as it reached the 0.7% target at a time of increased scrutiny. Working with international partners and other parts of the UK Government, he led global campaigns on a range of issues. Earlier this year, at the London Conference for Supporting Syria and the Region, hosted by the Prime Minister, effective communications were key in raising a record $12 billion.
James began his career in newspapers, before joining the BBC as a News Trainee. He worked as a correspondent, presenter and producer across BBC News, and spent five years as Dublin Correspondent. He joined DFID soon after the 2010 election following a stint as deputy head of News and PR at the Central Office of Information (COI).
James Helm says: "I've been proud to be part of Government communications at DFID for nearly six years. I am now delighted to be joining Portland's excellent team, and am really excited about helping to drive further success and the opportunities to serve clients around the world."

why Choose Empathic Counselling Centre?
We incorporate knowledge through various counselling beliefs and strategies to provide services that best suits you.
Though the definition of counselling has changed and has been modified over the years, the core definition remains to hold true. Counselling is a personal process that is guided by a professional counsellor whose goal is to create authority in the client's life. Counsellors use the therapeutic relationship to guide self- knowledge, emotional acceptance and growth and the optimal development of personal resources. The overall aim is to provide an opportunity to work towards living more satisfyingly and resourcefully.
This is accomplished through a variety of means, mainly based on the counsellor's theoretical orientation, goals established in therapy, level of skill, client insight and self-awareness and motivation for change, among other factors.
This can be a very personal process and it may at times become uncomfortable. Issues such as childhood trauma, broken relationships, attachment issues, and loss of loved ones, may arise and can bring about emotional reactions that can be intense. Empathic Counselling Centre is a safe, non-judgmental environment in which you can feel and explore these emotions.
We all have sad days, but what happens when we're having sad days every day? Depression can be crippling - it becomes impossible to get out of bed. We offer counselling for depression to help you get motivated and energized.
Feeling stressed is normal. Too much stress is a problem. Excessive stress leads to health concerns, anger issues, loss of sleep and appetite, and depression. If you want better ways to manage your stress with self-care and creating a healthy work/life balance, Empathic Counselling Centre can help you out!
Don't be shy! Contact us today!
If this is your first time seeking counselling or psychotherapy, we know that it can be quite confusing to get things going. To help smooth things out, we've conveniently set up a QUICK FAQ to answer your pressing concerns.
Call, e-mail or fill out a contact form to get in touch. We will arrange an appointment based on your availability.
I have insurance coverage. Now what?
Do you bill insurance directly?
If you are a Plan Member for Greenshield, SSQ or BlueCross, yes, we can bill directly. If not, we will provide you a receipt at the end of your session that you can use for reimbursement. We continue to partner with insurance providers to ensure greater accessibility to services. Look out for updates as we are constantly working on expanding our insurance company roster.
This is entirely up to you. We find that the most effective schedule is weekly. However, it is not uncommon for clients to meet with us bi-weekly. This soley depends on the nature of your concerns, goals in therapy, and availability.
"I live for that 'aha' moment that my clients have in session. To know that I have guided them to make connections, changes, and enlightened them, is powerful. I am constantly impressed by their motivation to improve their lives and I feel blessed to be a part of their journey."

Sometimes God doesn't just close a door, He seals all the windows and draws all the curtains.
I'm in Minneapolis for a meeting with my publisher about Growing Forward When You Can't Go Back (my first book, to be released in the New Year).
I decided to spend a few extra days here, wandering the city and keeping my eyes peeled for the Mary Tyler Moore statue.
Then I saw it. A Facebook photo of my very own literary agent with a group of writers and editors at a restaurant less than an hour away from me! They were having a grand old time together after an writer's conference at Northwestern University, which is within spitting distance of my hotel (if you can spit far).
There was a Christian writers' conference less than an hour away, and I completely missed it. Not only did I somehow overlook it in my regular search for writing conferences, I also missed the Facebook updates, emails, and references in my other writing groups.
I love writing conferences, being around other writers, learning how to write better, and meeting professionals in the publishing industry. I'm not joking when I say I regularly search for writing conferences. In fact, I'm going to a writers' conference next month, and again in September. I'd go every month if I could.
To make matters worse, my publishing house scheduled our meeting for this very week because of the writers' conference. Three other writers and two agents went to the conference and then met with my publisher the next day. Because it makes total sense. Only a fool would miss this opportunity.
I knew right away God chose to shut this door on me…but I'll never know why.
What doors has God closed for you?
Sometimes they're big, like death or divorce or disease. Sometimes they're little, like missing a conference or not being invited to a party. Sometimes they're medium, like not knowing what your purpose is or how to get over a breakup.
And sometimes they seem totally random, like this one. But nothing is random. God does not allow coincidences or happenstance – He's far too orderly, loving, and involved for that.
He didn't want me at that writing conference, and I don't know why. But this I know for sure: He was protecting me — or someone else — from something. I don't know what, but I trust Him. I believe He is always working things together for our good, even when it seems like He's absent, silent, or uncaring.
God closes doors, He allows bad and inexplicable and even tragic things to happen, and He doesn't always tell us why. But that doesn't mean He doesn't hear our prayers or know our confusion. He feels our pain, but He doesn't let us live like fragile roses in a hothouse. He loves us far too much for that.
When God closes a door, it means the thing we want isn't good for us…or we aren't good for it.
What doors has God closed for you? For the rest of the day, accept what He has allowed – and what He hasn't allowed – into your life. Know that if you knew everything God knows, you wouldn't change a thing.
When You're Sad Because You Never Married – If you're sad because you're still single, guess what? You're normal and healthy. We were made for companionship. God created us to spend life in pairs, with partners. He created us to love and be loved in return. And this makes it worse! Why on earth – if God created you to love and be loved – are you still single? I don't know exactly how you feel, but I know how it felt to grieve the loss of a dream. I didn't get married until I was 35, and spent a lot of time learning how to be happy single when I wished I was married.
How to Fall Asleep on Dark Sleepless Nights – When you can't sleep, the night is lonely and dark. Sleepless nights seem to last forever, don't they? If you struggle with sleepless nights or chronic insomnia, you are not alone. When you wake up up in the middle of the night and can't fall asleep again, know that others are in the same boat. You can't see, hear, smell or touch us — your fellow non-sleepers — but we're awake with you.
When Your Life Has No Purpose or Meaning – When you lose your purpose, life feels flat and meaningless. These seven tips will help you cope with the feeling of having no life purpose, and give you ideas for moving forward into a new season.
Love this article and thank you very much for your blog. It popped up just seemingly at the right time as I am going thru transition as well with a 36 year marriage coming to an end initiated by me. Its so hard because for so long I was afraid of closing that door. I have found the courage to move on and know there are still challenging times ahead. I always vowed I'd stay till death parted us. I LOST both my mother and father within 6 months of each other this year and WOW what a mortality wake up call. Without going into too much…..thank you for you words….they strengthen me each time I read them. U are amazing and your insight and foresight helped me to know that I am not the first woman nor will I be the last to go thru trials and challenges such as I am facing. Appreciate YOU…keep blessing others thru your writing and experiences. U rock!
I do believe in God's plan and His will but sometimes when God is doing something like shutting the door , sickness, etc., it's painful to accept but it ends up good and He wants you to overcome it.

Talk me down: It's only a misplaced apostrophe!
Jody Gilbert says there's something for everyone in the discussion thread about her article on grammar mistakes that make you look stupid.
One bonehead grammatical error too many (I think it was "you're" for "your") sent me over the edge, and I was compelled to publish "10 flagrant grammar mistakes that make you look stupid." And now I've become addicted to its discussion thread, which has taken off in about 50 directions.
There's something for everyone there. A forum for expressing your own peeves or ranting against someone else's. Lessons in linguistics and cultural history. A little badinage between proponents of the Queen's (or King's) English and that lazy Americanized version. The overzealous, the anti-zealous, the l33t busters, the "let's break all the rules" camp, the "language is going to hell" doomsayers.
A couple of times, I've been forced to drag down a dusty copy of Chicago Style Manual or Words into Type to check on something I sort of remembered as a rule that various publishers insisted I adhere to. To which they insisted I adhere. Mostly, I've been vindicated. Although, as one member pointed out to me, "grammar" is a noun not an adjective, so the title of my article is incorrect (and yeah, makes me look stupid!).
Anyway, I stand by the list of 10 things as mainstream mistakes that are commonly regarded as red flags signaling careless or ignorant usage. But of course, it doesn't stop there.
I also understand that our language is evolving, there are a million regional/cultural differences, there are plenty of good reasons to break the rules, and many editorial conventions are based merely on someone's preference or whim somewhere up the line.
It comes down to two things for me, whether I'm writing or editing: Is the information expressed clearly, concisely, and logically? And is it free of glaring mistakes that could confuse or distract the reader? Anything beyond that is a bonus: a clever lead; a subtle, ingenious subtext; a compelling story; humor (done well); the refreshing absence of worn-out pop culture references, cliches, and statements of the obvious.
I think good writing is better than correct writing. But the editor in me wants both.

Chemical structure of lysergol
Lysergol, is an alkaloid of the ergoline family that occurs in various species of vines of the Convolvulaceae and some species of fungi. As the minor alkaloid in the hallucinogenic seeds of Rivea corymbosa (ololiuhqui), Argyreia nervosa (Hawaiian baby woodrose) and Ipomoea violacea. Whether or not this compound has hallucinogenic effects remains unclear. Lysergol is uncontrolled in the USA, but possession and sale may be illegal under the Federal Analog Act because of its relationship to LSD and ergine, which are controlled substances.

Welcome to this lecture on rhythm, stress, and pausing.
stress, and pausing to persuade.
English is a very rhythmic language.
greatly affect your communication with others.
the wrong word can make others miss your main point, or your main argument.
Or worse, they can completely misunderstand what you're trying to say.
the effects of stress and pausing in your speech.
Let's first look at how stressing works.
In sentences, certain words receive more stress than others.
which we call content words.
Content words are nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs.
prepositions, which we call function words.
I say normally, because it can happen.
then ask you to identify which word is stressed.
I want to agree with a friend that I think a particular puppy is cute.
I'll repeat it one more time.
Can you hear the word I'm stressing?
Take a look at the three examples on the screen.
Which sentence shows the stress word in my example?
The correct answer is the second sentence.
I placed stress on the verb to show that I agree with my friend.
it can also emphasize a main point that you're trying to make.
Listen to these three examples.
Our product has brought joy to millions of people in Asia.
As we just talked about, stress highlights key words for a listener's attention.
We often pause slightly before a strongly stressed word to had emphasis or emotion.
Let's take a look at this sentence.
Where do you think the pausing should occur?
Here's how I would say the sentence.
Their product is well designed but it is too expensive.
Did you notice where I paused?
I paused after the word designed.
that I think it is a well designed product, but it is expensive.
pause between the two phrases, I'm placing more emphasis on the contrast.
Their product is well designed, but it is too expensive.
while pausing breaks the sentences into chunks of meaning.
Apart from that, pausing also is used to strongly stress a word and add emphasis.
Go ahead, practice using stress and pausing.
Listen to speeches by native speakers.
TED Talks is an excellent place to watch videos.
also how they also place stress on certain words.
You'll notice that pausing quite often is not a grammatical point in the sentence.
Sometimes they place pauses in between certain chunks of meaning in a text.
Pay attention how they use pausing to draw your attention to certain points.
And also pay attention to how they stress certain words.
to make you focus on a main point that you're trying to say.


When a Texas woman went to visit her mother at Seagoville Haven nursing home in mid-February, she was shocked to find the facility locked and empty.
Jerri Major's mother, Leatha, was nowhere to be found, and the owner of the facility left no note as to the whereabouts of the residents. After a couple weeks of investigation between Jerri and her siblings found out that some residents—including their mother—had been transported to boarding houses nearly 20 miles away.
Unfortunately, by the time Jerri figured out which house Leatha was sent to, she was told that her mother, who suffers from schizophrenia, walked out of her assigned house one day and never returned. She still has not been located.
The owner of the closed facility maintains that Leatha's family was notified when she was moved, but he doesn't know who was contacted or when.

ACOEM expands its smart cities presence through acquisition of Air Monitors
3 weeks ago	Monitoring and Metering, News 101 Views
ACOEM Group has accelerated its international expansion plans with the acquisition of Air Monitors, the exclusive distribution partner of ECOTECH products in the United Kingdom.
Google Street View cars and 100 AQMesh hyperlocal air quality monitoring pods from Air Monitors are mapping London's air pollution as part of the Breathe London
Air Monitors represents many of the world's leading environmental technology manufacturers and is recognised by leading government and industry bodies for its expertise in air quality monitoring technologies that help determine the impact of air pollution.
Jim Mills, founder and managing director of Air Monitors , was instrumental in the recent implementation of an air quality monitoring program in London, described by C40 Cities as 'the world's most sophisticated air quality monitoring system'. The Breathe London initiative, launched in January 2019, is a world- first project using AQMesh hyperlocal small sensor air quality monitoring technology to map air pollution levels and collate detailed analytical data to better understand the issue.
Mills commented: "I look forward to working with more cities to plan and deliver similar environmental monitoring initiatives for which there is an enormous need and growing demand."
ACOEM Group has grown to become a world leader in environmental monitoring solutions, having merged in 2017 with Australian company ECOTECH, a globally recognised leader in air quality monitoring. ECOTECH has had a relationship with Air Monitors Ltd for more than 15 years, leading to its exclusive distribution partnership.
The business expansion allows ACOEM, now reaching more than 100 M€ turnover, to continue its mission of protecting the environment using a complementary air, noise and vibration product portfolio, and deep expertise in delivering significant projects that help smart cities, companies and public authorities reduce their environmental impact.
Felicity Sharp, who joined ECOTECH in 2006 and has been head of ECOTECH Europe since 2018, will step into the role of managing director.
"This is an exciting time for ACOEM as we continue to support our ECOTECH customers and boost our UK market presence under the wider ACOEM product and service offering," said Felicity Sharp.
Air Monitors founder and managing director Jim Mills will work closely with Air Monitors as part of the ACOEM Environment team, continuing to build on the smart cities strategy for the organisation globally.

Years ago, CUNA adopted a policy in order to incentivize employees not to use their sick days, whereby unused sick days could be saved for retirement and a monetary value allocated to those sick days could be used to credit premiums the retirees would have to pay for post-retirement health insurance coverage. In 2008, CUNA had accumulated a recognized liability for all these unused sick days on its books totaling over $120 million. With one swift stroke of a pen, CUNA eliminated the liability, and recorded a gain for the same amount on its books, telling all its retirees they could no longer use the sick day balance to pay for post-retirement health care.
The retirees sued, alleging CUNA engaged in a prohibited transaction by diverting plan assets to itself. Writing for the split-panel majority, Judge Easterbrook reasoned that (1) unlike pension plans, welfare benefit plans do not need to be funded under ERISA § 301, and (2) welfare plan benefits do not vest. Judge Easterbook also reasoned that the sick-leave balances were not plan assets, because they were mere bookkeeping liabilities.
The Court, however, seemed to have overlooked clear statutory and regulatory language that counters this reasoning. True, funding rules only apply to pension plans, not welfare benefit plans. But ERISA clearly requires that all plan assets, whether pension plan or welfare plan, be held in trust. ERISA §§ 401, 403. Next, ERISA provides little for a definition of plan assets, and directs the Department of Labor to define the term in regulations. ERISA § 3(42). The regulations provide that any amount that an employee pays to an employer towards an employee benefit plan becomes a plan asset shortly after the funds can reasonably be segregated from the employer's general assets. 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-102(a)(1). It would appear that when the workers elected not to use their sick days, they paid these sick days (which under the plan had a corresponding monetary value) to the plan, and upon the end of the calendar year, the employer had an obligation to place the value of the sick days in a trust pursuant to ERISA § 403.
