Unemployed Doctors Come Forward To Fight Covid In Mizoram
Aizawl: In a generous gesture, over 400 unemployed doctors, nursing students, laboratory technicians and pharmacists in Mizoram have voluntarily agreed to assist the government in Covid management, health officials said on Wednesday.
A health official said that responding to the state government's appeal, 412 unemployed doctors, nursing students and laboratory technicians willingly engaged themselves in Covid-19 related works including sample collections, screening of patients, contact tracing, and providing care to the patients in Zoram Medical College (ZMC) and other Covid care centres.
"The state government has been facing huge shortages of skilled medical manpower. The voluntary engagement of 412 unemployed doctors, nursing students and laboratory technicians would be a great help for the authorities in dealing with Covid management," the official said.
Of the 412, 37 are doctors and 144 are nurses, while the rest are laboratory technicians and pharmacists.
According to the official, around 900 doctors, nursing and para-medical students had voluntarily helped the Mizoram Health Department last year to deal with the pandemic.
A total of 8,032 positive cases have detected in the mountainous border state and on Wednesday, the active cases stood at 1,889 with 23 people succumbing to the disease.

At IndyStar, we want you to understand how and why we do the things we do. How News Works is a new series that goes behind the scenes in the newsroom.
Here's a peek behind the curtain: Many journalists don't enjoy writing weather stories.
They have a short shelf life; you spend time writing them, and then they're quickly out of date. They're all pretty much the same; you write one and you feel like you've written them all. They open you to criticism; sometimes the meteorologists you talk to or forecasts you use end up being wrong.
Editors assign them because they provide a service to readers, and readers faithfully read them.
But how do we know when to write them? Local television stations broadcast weather reports every day. We provide forecasts in print every day — courtesy of meteorologists working for our news partner, Fox59 — but we don't write stories about the weather every day.
If a serious snowstorm or thunderstorm shows up on the 10-day forecast, should we publish something right away? Or should we wait until the weather is closer and meteorologists have had more time to refine the forecast?
That's a topic up for debate. It involves news judgment and weather science.
How accurate are long-term forecasts?
Readers have the right to know if a storm that could impact their life is coming; however, we also have a responsibility to be accurate.
If we write about the storm too early, it increases the chances that the information within it could change. But by how much?
Cody Kirkpatrick, a lecturer in the Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at Indiana University, said forecasts have improved significantly over the last five decades.
"In fact, our seven-day forecasts are as good as the three-day forecasts were back in the 1980s," Kirkpatrick said. "In one generation's time, we have been able to gain three or four days of prediction ability thanks to improvements in our science knowledge, more powerful computing and better weather instrument systems."
Kirkpatrick said the same is true in forecasting not only how much rain will fall, but also where it will fall.
However, even with these improvements, forecasts will still have more uncertainty the farther out you go, Kirkpatrick said.
"Even at seven days, the temperature forecast will be about five or six degrees Fahrenheit in error nationally," he said.
That makes a bigger difference in the winter, when such a swing could greatly alter the forecast.
"In January, if that's the difference between 29 degrees and 35 degrees that could be the difference between a foot of snow and an inch of rain," Kirkpatrick said.
Chanh Kieu, an assistant professor of atmospheric science at IU, said the current science can accurately say whether there will be precipitation about five to seven days before a storm, but it does not allow for predictions about exact amounts.
"We can not say precisely whether it will be 5 inches or 12 inches," Kieu said. "But we can say we'll have snow. It's more likely that we're going to be right (than not)."
So the science of long-term forecasts has improved, but it's not perfect and its temperature uncertainties can mean big differences in the type and total amount of precipitation.
With this uncertainty in mind, the question of when to write a weather story becomes a balance of the risk of writing about a forecast that could be wrong and the benefit of warning readers about the storm.
Things to consider when there is no perfect answer
Alvie Lindsay, IndyStar's director of news and investigations, is one of the newsroom leaders who makes decisions about when to publish content.
"Severe weather is a public safety issue so my strong feeling is that you should let the public know as soon as that information becomes available," Lindsay said. "I think you also have an obligation to treat it as a developing story and provide regular updates over the days leading up to a predicted storm or severe temperatures."
He thinks that readers understand the imperfect science of weather predictions.
"What I think they should expect is for their news source to be responsible and provide the best information available from the most credible source — the National Weather Service — and not to over-hype or sensationalize weather events," Lindsay said.
For Lindsay, the decision of when to write a weather story goes back to doing no harm.
"The biggest disservice we could do the public — the action that could cause the most harm — is withholding information that could help people prepare for a potential disaster and protect their loved ones," Lindsay said. "That's far, far worse than warning people that a storm might happen that ultimately doesn't come to pass."
In all, the responsibility of journalists to inform readers is at the core of what we do and should be considered during these decisions.
"Our job, it seems, is to get the information to people and give them the opportunity to assess and make their own decisions knowing that such predictions are not always perfect," Lindsay said.

Manual's graduation rate plunges after state audit


Is a serious crossover between these two franchises feasible? As much as I'd like to say yes, I think it's not possible.
For one, there's the ancient past. In AC, Those Who Came Before are responsible for creating humanity. In PMMM, it's apparently thanks to the Incubators that humanity even advanced at all from their cave lifestyle. See the problem there? Of course, there's always the "whisked to another world" option. No, Homura's time travel won't work here, due to the conflicting pasts as stated previously.
I don't plan on writing the crossover, but if someone can make it happen, I'd like to see it.
I feel like the easiest way it would work is that 'whisked to another world' option. Although if that happens the two worlds would have to blend in some way because there aren't any witches in the Assassin's Creed world. Which means no Grief Seeds. Which means bad.
Or maybe something like the Incubators helped out Those Who Came Before. In fact, such an alliance may change the way the magical girl system works.
So it would take someone skilled, someone who intimately knows both canons, but I think it's pretty doable.
I'm well versed in both. I simply do not know how to go about writing it, however I could give it a shot. I need to get back into some creative juices. The suggestions are quite helpful, Lunar. So, I can't promise it will be awesome, but I'll try my best. Expect this crossover in a week few days from now, Keyblade Seeker.
I decided to make this into three parts. Tell me what you think of it. If you guys like it, I'll do more of it.
In a secure building hidden away from prying eyes were a group of bright and intelligent people working together to take down Abstergo. They're known as Assassins. A long time foe of the Templars, whom have been their constant enemy for generations and centuries. In a race against time, they're searching for clues to find the Apple of Eden before the Templars can get their hands on it.
"There's something wrong with the Animus." Rebecca stated, looking up from her laptop at her two fellow Assassins.
"Then fix it." Shaun retorted, not bothering to turn around in his chair.
Rebecca muttered something unintelligent beneath her breath as she held out her hand for Lucy to toss a piece of crumpled up paper over her desk; Rebecca triumphantly catching it into her awaiting palm. "I can't. The Animus is rejecting the disc. There's several irregularly properties within the system. It's messing up the data, and I can't get them fast enough without them popping up everywhere else." Then with a solid glare in Shaun's direction did she toss the crumpled up piece of paper at the back of Shaun's head.
Watching the paper hit it's target in the back of a head followed by another one, Lucy quickly buried her head down onto her desk, muffling her laughter into her right arm as she shook from laughing too hard. Rebecca quickly sat back down in her seat after silently fist pumping the air a few times, and pretended to get back to work. Trying to keep a straight face as she tinkered with the Animus; pushing a few keys down on her keyboard to evade detection.
"Ow." Shaun growled, swiveling his chair around to face the culprits. "That's really mature of you Rebecca, Lucy. Don't you two have something better to do? You know, such as fixing the Animus or hacking into Abstergo's data base? We don't got all day."
Rebecca held up her hands in surrender. "It wasn't me." Her eyes flickering over to Lucy then back at Shaun.
Shaun turned his attention onto Lucy, holding up the crumple piece of paper accusingly at her. Completely unaware of Rebecca sticking her tongue out at him as Lucy shook her head in response. Then when Shaun quickly twisted around to look back at Rebecca, she gave him an innocent whistle.
"Don't look at me," Lucy smiled, "I didn't see anything."
"Whatever." Shaun muttered, scrunching up the crumple piece of paper into a ball and tossing it into a nearby trashcan. "Just don't do it again. I've got work to do. This isn't time for petty, childish games."
Then with a accusing glare in both of their directions, Shaun finally turned back around in his chair and got back to work. After a few brief moments of silence, he stood up from his chair and reconnected the strings attached to the photos above his work desk. A permanent scowl on his face from being ambushed by a pair of woman and their silly games.
"So, what's wrong with the Animus?" Lucy asked quietly, leaning into her desk as she shoved the box of folders aside; ducking behind them to hide from Shaun. "Can we still use it on Desmond?"
"The Animus should still work," Rebecca replied with a grin, "I just can't see what's inside of it or how it'll effect Desmond as he goes through each of his memories. Should something go wrong, I've got a loop hole for Desmond to use."
"Did somebody say my name?" Desmond asked, appearing in the doorway with a tray full of hot beverages. "Is this a bad time?"
"When is it ever not a bad time?" Shaun said sarcastically. "We've got Abstergo trying to track us down and kill us."
"To make matters worse, we now have a problem with the Animus. And we have to deal with you -- Someone that hasn't pulled his weight since he got here. In all honesty, I don't see what Lucy sees in you. Does any of that sound remotely good to you?"
"Shaun!" Lucy scowled in his direction, before setting her eyes back on Desmond and giving him a kind smile. "Don't mind Shaun. He's been grumpy all morning." With a roll of her eyes did she smell the aroma of coffee and instantly moaned -- taking notice of the tray Desmond was holding. "Are those for us? Please tell me they are! I could really go for a drink."
"Yeah. There's one for each of you. I hope all of you like coffee." Desmond said sheepishly, setting it down on a round table before moving over to the Animus. Tapping his fingertips onto the armrest of the Animus, he could hear Shaun groan in annoyance before looking over at Rebecca. "Is everything okay with the Animus? I'm not going to be electrocuted by this thing, am I?
Rebecca shrugged. "Yeah, it's fine. There's just a few bugs that will take some time to root out." When Desmond didn't reply right away, she looked up at him with a cheesy grin. "As for your safety, I'm ninety nine percent sure you won't have your brain fried into nothing."
"What about the last percentage?" Desmond said, half jokingly in concern, taking a seat in the Animus as Rebecca came around to check his vitals before hooking him into the Animus and putting a syringe into his arm.
Rebecca waved him off. "Don't worry about it. We wouldn't be using this baby, if it was going to reduce your mind into a bubbling idiot." After hitting a few selective keys on her keyboard, she looked around her computer at him. "Get ready, Desmond."
"Not like he isn't one already." Shaun muttered underneath his breath.
"Shaun, you're an a--." Desmond said, breaking off mid-sentence, before falling unconscious and returning to a different timeline as someone else.
"He's right you know." Rebecca stated.
"Shut up." Shaun fired by.
In the distant atop of a few tall tours overlooking the city stood three female silhouettes with weapons of their choosing as they searched for grief seeds. The gravitational pull to fight the witches was growing stronger by the hour as guards and civilians died like flies. Each magical girl searching high and low for these grief seeds as Kyuubey watched over them. It grew distinctively clear this world was not their own. However, it was their duty to try to protect it until their job was done. Completely unaware of the true danger they were in.
"Any signs of it, Mami?"
The eldest of the two other magical girls shook her head as her eyes scanned the walls of each building. Her blonde ringlets moving with each step she took. The civilians of this world hardly noticing her as she passed by them on the streets; despite not blending with her odd colored clothes, no one looked her way. All of them completely afraid of the unknown and simply refusing she was even there.
"Not quite." Mami replied softly with a frown on her face.
"Perhaps it will show itself in the later hours of the day?" Kyuubey suggested, appearing before Mami on top of an urban stand and blending into the red fabric. "We've got some time before the grief seeds awaken and turn into trouble."
"You mean there's more than one, Kyuubey?" Mami asked slightly in concern.
Two more magical girls joined their fellow elder magical girl and incubator. To her left side stood a short, tempered, magical girl with blue hair known as Sayaka, whom sighed dramatically as she looked around in disinterest at all of the people looking alike. On the opposite side of Mami stood the magical girl with pink hair held up in pigtails known as Madoka; considered the strongest of the two magical girls put together. Kyuubey's eyes landing on her as they spoke.
"I don't like this," Sayaka stated.
"And I'm starving. Let's take a break and start over later."
"I don't know," Madoka said hesitantly, "What if the grief seed wakes up before we have a chance to get to it? Shouldn't we keep searching for it?"
Sayaka laughed and threw her arm earnestly around Madoka's neck -- embracing the girl into a hug and shaking her head. "You're such a goody two shoes, Madoka. We'll find the grief seed in no time. We've got Kyuubey to help us find it. So let's not worry about it for now."
"B-But we don't even know how we got here!" Madoka protested weakly, wringing her hands together and looking to Mami for support.
"Relax Madoka. Mami and Kyuubey won't let anything happen to us. We're magical girls. That makes us a team and we look after one another." Sayaka said confidently, tugging her by the elbow away from Kyuubey and Mami. "So the first thing we should do is get something to eat."
Madoka shook her head, protesting on their behalf as she was pulled away by Sayaka; smiling sympathetically over her shoulder at Mami, whom shook her head in response and waved her off. "Bring me back some cake, if you can find any, Madoka!" Once the two magical girls turned down the street and out of her sight did Mami return her gaze onto Kyuubey. "How bad is it really? Where is Kyoko and Homura?"
"I may be an incubator that grants the wishes of every magical girl, Mami. But that doesn't mean I know everything." Kyuubey stated calmly, his tail swishing back and forth behind him as his red eyes looked beyond what Mami could see. "I believe Homura may be behind this temporary mishap of location."
"Homura?" Mami said in confusion, making a face as she strolled along the crowded streets. A few guards looking her way after she passed through a few open food stands and stopped outside of a building without a door latched onto it. Three guards blocking her field of vision and entry. Something shiny and glowing catching her eye that left her rooted to the spot. Making the three guards suddenly more alert and smile non to kindly at the magical girl.
"You can't go in here. Get lost." The guard growled, his voice sounding slightly scratchy and rough.
"Sorry." Mami replied with a smile. "I just thought-"
"You saw nothing, girl." The guard barked, moving forward an inch and reaching out with his calloused hands to push her away. "Don't make me repeat myself."
Mami backed up to evade his grip and collided into someone from behind. An apology on her lips as she turned to face her savior -- only to see a hooded mask in place; masking her savior's features as a strong, thick Italian accent whispered into her ears alone. "Are you okay? Can you stand?" The sudden feel of strong hands on her back made her stand upright in an instant.
"I'm fine! Thank you!" Mami said hurriedly. "I should of been watching where I was going. I'm sorry."
The hooded individual wouldn't have any of it. Gently patting her on the shoulder in reassurance did the man address the three guards standing at their posts. "You boys don't have to be so rude to a poor innocent girl. Didn't your mother's ever teach you any manners? Or are they a bunch of whores that raised a bunch of scum like you?" Instantly, all three guards grabbed hold of their weaponry with dawning realization of who stood before them and charged in for an attack.
"We'll make you pay dearly for those words!"
The Assassin held out both of his arms by his sides, the sound of metal clicking into place as two hidden blades slid out of their compartments. "Today, you die, Assassin!" One of the guards shouted, swinging his the blunt side of his mace at the Assassin's head only to have it lodge itself into a brick wall -- several people began to scream and running away from the fight as the Assassin threw a few punches into the guards face.
"Did your mother teach you how to fight?" The Assassin taunted, colliding his fist into the guards stomach as he kicked out at the lunging guard to his right.
Mami eyes widen in shock as the Assassin plunged his hidden blade into the guard's throat and whirled around to do the same to the dead fellow guards -- whom shook as they launched themselves again into attack mode and went down in an instant with the Assassin slamming them down onto their backs by their faces in both of his hands -- successfully cutting both of their throats out and watching them bleed to death.
Nearby stood a runner that took off at the sight of three guards going down -- hurrying to warn the others and to start putting fliers up everywhere.
"I'm sorry you had to see that." The Assassin sighed dejectedly, looking over his shoulder to see Mami rooted to the spot with her eyes bugged out and her face gone considerably white after witnessing three sudden deaths. "I didn't think you'd still be here to see this."
As if to comfort her, the Assassin gently reached out to steer her away from the sight of blood and dead bodies. Except Mami stood back before he could touch her with her head constantly shaking in disbelief. Tears pricking her eyes as she gazed at the Assassin. Having mistook him for a hero instead of a messenger of death. "How could you do this?" She whispered.
"Mami? Is something wrong?" Madoka and Sayaka asked in alarm.
Mami jolted in fear until it dawned on her that Madoka and Sayaka were still far away. A sense of relief entered her chest as she let go of the air she was holding -- remembering she could only hear them thanks to Kyuubey keeping tabs on all three of them, and letting them silently communicate with each other when things got too ugly with the witches and grief seeds. Neither one of them having to witness murder being committed right before their very eyes.
"I'm okay. I'll meet up with you two soon." Mami lied.
"You sure that's a good idea, Mami?" Kyuubey asked, "We don't know what this guy is capable of."
"I'll take him on if I have to, Kyuubey." Mami bluffed, looking at the Assassin warily as he waited for her to say something.
Instead of giving the Assassin what he wanted, Mami walked silently past him and carefully stepped over the dead guards and spilt blood. Her nose wrinkling at the disgusting smell of blood and decay as she stepped into the room, where several boxes of treasured laid on the carpeted floor behind the desk. Right above the desk was a grief seed crackling with power.
"Kyuubey. Don't tell Madoka and Sayaka I found a grief seed." Mami said grimly. Her eyes closing as she stubbornly tried not to think about the dead bodies right outside of the door and the stench of blood wafting into the room. "I can handle this one on my own."
"But Mami, you can't do it on your own!" Kyuubey warned, only for Mami to ignore his outbursts.
"What is that thing?" The Assassin asked, pointing his index finger at the grief seed she was starring at.
Mami stared at him in shock as she put the desk between them. "You can see it?"
I approve, Sugar Lips! Wonderful premise. Is it possible for me to post this in FanFiction.Net? Of course, I'll credit you, and I'll have to beta it a bit.
So is the Ezio there just starting his Assassin career so to speak?
Thanks! I still got to work on the next following chapters to get Ezio and the Magical Girls where I want them to be. C: Sure, you can post this on FanFiction.Net. Considering it was just a request that I didn't mind doing. And yes, I'd much appreciate being credited for the work I put into it. Otherwise, I wish you the best in fixing whatever errors you find.
As for Ezio, we'll have to see.
Oh ho interesting. I wasn't sure how such a crossover would work but you got a good thing started here. I find it interesting the Assassin can see the seed.
I just remembered something. A title is needed for this. Any ideas?
"Out of Place, Out of Time."
How does that sound for a chapter title, Keyblade Seeker? If not for this suggestion, you can come up with any title you want for this story. I don't mind. In other news, I should have another chapter updated within the week or upcoming weekend. Sorry for the delay.
I saw a glaring error. Judging from the year, Ezio just started down the path of the Assassin, and thus would not have acquired his second hidden blade yet.
Also I need a summary. This is in FF.Net after all, and we all want readers to be enticed with what we write, right?
I'm more devoted to KHI and the readers here. If I were to give a summary, it'd go like this: Two unusual universes unite to find the Apple of Eden. A unforeseen shadow bides it's time to strike as the magical girls aide the assassin on his quest to find the scared object; until it becomes clear to the magical girls that the way home may come with a deadly price.
Then we can simply remove the date. I already have Ezio his two hidden blades. The beauty of this story is that it's not canon. Therefore, we can do whatever we like to it. xD I'm more devoted to KHI and the readers here. If I were to give a summary, it'd go like this: Two unusual universes unite to find the Apple of Eden. A unforeseen shadow bides it's time to strike as the magical girls aide the assassin on his quest to find the scared object; until it becomes clear to the magical girls that the way home may come with a deadly price.
Yes, I'm aware that as a fanfic, "nothing is canon, anything is allowed" (yes, I'm butchering the Assassin's Creed here). But we need to be established at some canon point in the story for fans from at least one side of the fandom to understand.
In short, don't butcher the date in an Assassin's Creed fanfic, please. Also, I kinda already wrote out the second hidden blade in the FF.Net version. It could easy to say that the other one is being fixed up.
Also, I decided on the title: Puer Percussor Ezio Magica. Puer means "boy" (as Puella means "girl"), and Percussor means "assassin". I kept the Magica because I was too lazy.
For the record, the set main characters (limit of four) are Ezio, Mami, Madoka, and Desmond. Are these the most important four out of all the characters? I'm aware of the other characters, but who are really the top two for the PMMM side? I chose Madoka for character reasons and Mami for encountering Ezio. Desmond and Ezio represent the AC side, 'future' present and 'past' present respectively.
Hello? Are we still on? I'm getting interested. You promised three parts.
I think's it's actually quite easy to cross these franchises over, because Assassin's can essentially be the Puella Magi's equivalent of magical Boys. If you pretend that the eagle is a contractor like incubators, that there's even more similarity.

Sometimes, the patent might be afraid to reveal everything, and the chiropractor should be tactical in identifying the hidden needs of his patients. He should apply professional skills in choosing the best alternative to solve the problem of the patient and ensure the patients are achieving satisfaction and good health. Besides verbal communication, the therapist must be knowledgeable and careful in identifying the hidden symptoms that cause pain in the body of the patient.

There are a lot of times when I think, flipping Nora, what have I got myself into? I was in the jungle three weeks ago, in the crook of a tree. There was torrential rain for 48 hours. I had grass stuffed up my shirt and pants to keep warm. But the more that goes wrong, the better the show.
What scares Bear Grylls?
I get very, very scared of heights. I hate bats. I'm quite claustrophobic. I wrestled a ten-foot boa a couple weeks ago. You're inhuman if you're not crapping your pants when you're doing that.
So you're afraid all the time.
Fear is there to sharpen us. What freaks me out most is learning the show is reaching over a billion people. Suddenly you think, God, I've got to concentrate more.
You took heat last year for not revealing that you sometimes get assistance from your crew.
What all that hoo-ha did was force us to show more. Now, whenever I get any help, I acknowledge it.
Do you feel pressure to eat nastier things?
In America, all you want to do is talk about what bear shit tastes like. In South America and the UK, they're not really interested in that.
I don't know—you tell me. I think you're all mad.

Everything Our Editors Loved in December
By: The Editors


When Jesus told the disciples that He was about to leave them and return to the Father, fear filled their hearts. Yet He also gave them words of comfort and assurance; words that still inspire and bless us today. In fact, the most cherished passage in the Bible is known as the "Upper Room Discourse" where Jesus intimately shares His heart with His loved ones.

Notices and condition reports
Using rental notices
Home buyer / ownerLandlord / lessorProperty industryTenant
Proper procedures must be observed when serving a notice. If the matter ends up in court, the person who prepared the notice would have to prove the notice was served correctly.
Three handy charts were developed to help you understand the use and service on notices, particularly for the breach and termination of non payment of rent.
How much time does it take to serve a notice?
The Counting days page has links to several flowcharts developed to show you how to service notices correctly.
How to issue a notice
You can serve a notice by emailing or handing it to the intended person, by email or mailing it by ordinary post (but not by placing it in the tenant's or lessor's letterbox yourself).
You should not use certified mail for sending notices.
A notice to a tenant can be given to:
the tenant;
a person who usually pays the rent; or
a resident of the rented premises who is apparently over 16 years.
If the tenant is giving a notice to a lessor, it can be given to:
the lessor;
the lessor's property manager;
the person or organisation that receives the rent; or
any person apparently over 16 years living at the lessor's home;
Where there are two or more lessors or tenants, the notice need be given to only one of them (although the notice should refer to all of the parties to the agreement).
Any notice to be given to a person whose address is not known is regarded as having been served if a copy of it is published in a daily newspaper, which circulates generally throughout the State.
If serving the notice by post, you will need to factor in the days for postage in addition to the required periods of notice.
When to serve a notice
If a tenant breaches the agreement by not paying the rent, or in some other way, how and when the lessor issues notices is going to depend on what exactly has gone wrong. This is explained in more detail in the section "When things go wrong" and the flowcharts in the appendices in Renting out your property - a lessor's guide.
When serving a notice to end a tenancy following a breach notice, it must not be issued before any time period given in a breach notice, otherwise a Magistrate may reject court action to end the tenancy.
If the lessor is ending the tenancy for reasons other than a breach of the agreement eg. selling the property, the lessor must still serve the notice of termination (Form 1C) - this is not to be used for non-payment of rent.
Similarly, if the lessor is serving a notice about a rent increase or an inspection, they must also comply with the Act's requirements and use the correct notice.
Proof notice was served
If a tenancy issue goes to court, the Magistrate is likely to require proof the notice was served correctly. Therefore, keep a copy of each notice issued including a written record of:
the method you used to serve it, and
the date it was sent or handed to the person.
Also, the person who sends the notice should sign these notations.

On Friday the Bulkley Valley Kinsmen announced rockers April Wine as the final act, joining Kim Mitchell and Emerson Drive.
Apr. 26, 2013 8:00 p.m.
The musical lineup for the 101st Telkwa Barbecue may be even better than it was last year.
On Friday, the Bulkley Valley Kinsmen announced rockers April Wine as the final act, joining Kim Mitchell and Emerson Drive.
April Wine and Kim Mitchell take to the stage the Saturday of the Labour Day weekend while Emerson Drive perform on Sunday.
"We're pretty excited about it, it's a pretty big follow-up to last year," said BV Kinsmen treasurer Mike Henfrey.
Although they've never stopped in the Bulkley Valley, April Wine with guitarist Brian Greenway, lead singer Myles Goodwyn, Roy Nichol on drum and Richard Lanthier on bass, Greenway does remember the scenery from a trip to Prince Rupert last year following a concert in Prince George.
"It's pretty out there," Greenway said.
Given the view, Greenway said he was looking forward to taking the stage in Telkwa.
"If it's not raining," he said with a chuckle, then recounted the story of a Canada Day outdoor concert in Val d'Or in northern Quebec that had to be cancelled because it snowed.
Other than rain and snow, Greenway said the only technical challenge is the wind which can push the sound around.
Greenway joined April Wine in 1977 and said the decision was easy.
Greenway had already played in a couple of bands with Steve Lang who was the bassist for April Wine at the time and thus the familiarity made him a natural suggestion.
"Plus I lived in town close to everybody, they couldn't have asked for more," Greenway added with a laugh.
He was already a fan of their songs, notably Child's Garden and Victim for Your Love.
"I'd hear them on the radio all the time, I really liked the material and when you know somebody in the band you tend to like it a little more," he said.
Since then April Wine has played many concerts, indoors and outdoors, but every show is different which helps keep the whole process fresh, Greenway explained.
In fact, Greenway said, in addition to hanging out with his bandmates, the concerts are the best part of being a member of April Wine.
"There's no better feeling in the world to me than playing music in front of people and getting the reaction that they're enjoying it," he said.
As for a favourite song, Greenway first went off the list of April Wine originals.
"We've been playing 21st Century Schizoid Man [King Crimson song] a lot," he said.
As for his favourite April Wine original, Greenway points to his signature piece, Sign of a Gypsy Queen, the song which contains his favourite guitar solo.
"I love playing Sign of a Gypsy Queen," he said.
In the end, Greenway said, playing any song the crowd loves to sing along and interact with is the best.
"Those are the ones I like," he said.
Setting the stage for April Wine is Canadian rocker Kim Mitchell.
Mitchell first became a mainstay on the Canadian music scene with Max Webster in the early 1970s before he went solo in the '80s.
He's perhaps best known for his solo hits like, Go for Soda, Patio Lanterns and I am a Wild Party.
His last album, Aint Life Amazing, was released in 2007.
Mitchell currently hosts a weekday afternoon radio show on Q107 in Toronto.
On Sunday night, Emerson Drive takes to the stage.
The Canadian country music band just finished touring with Doc Walker on CMT's Hitlist 2013 cross-country tour.
The group is responsible for such hits as I Should be Sleeping, Fall Into Me and chart-topping ballad Moments.
Tickets prices are the same for both night, $35 for general admission and $45 for preferred seating.
There are a limited number of preferred seats available and Henfrey said he expects them to go quickly once tickets become available May 15.
"If you want preferred seating, you better buy your tickets fast," he said.
As an extra incentive to purchase tickets early, the Kinsmen are offering a VIP upgrade to preferred seating and a meet and greet with the bands for anyone who buys between May 15 and 31.
Tickets are available at the Burns Lake, Houston, Smithers and Hazelton branches of the Bulkley Valley Credit Union, Bulkley Valley Insurance Services in Houston and Smithers, Midway Service in Telkwa and Total Floors.

ScS return to profits after a £1.7 million loss
Ben Stevens
ScS has announced a return to profits with like-for-like sales up nearly 15 per cent in its latest full-year report, recovering from a loss of £1.7 million the prior year.
Pre-tax profits in the year to July 30 rose to £10.9 million, whereas the adjusted EBITDA rocketed by a further 41.5 per cent to £16 million.
After having raised its profit expectations following a strong Christmas period, the furniture and upholster retailer posted a 14.8 per cent hike in like-for-like sales and a revenue boost of 14.7 per cent taking it to £317 million.
RELATED: SCS report strong figures despite referendum concerns
Despite its significant progress with ecommerce, with sales rising by 19.8 per cent online, ScS attributes the success to concessions in House of Fraser stores, which it is planning to increase in the coming months.
Its 28 concessions gained a 19.7 per cent rise in gross sales to £25.3 million. Having opened two new outlets in the period, the retailer is now penning plans for further expansion to bricks and mortar stores.
"We are delighted to be reporting significant growth across all areas of the group for the 2016 financial year," chief executive David Knight said.
RELATED: ScS says full year will "significantly" beat expectations following strong festive trading
"These results demonstrate that the group has made significant progress in developing ScS into a strong national brand with three very clear retail offers – upholstered furniture, flooring and our House of Fraser concessions, all supported by an online platform that has seen continued investment."
"Looking further ahead, we are excited about our prospects, including the continued growth from our existing ScS network, the concession agreement with House of Fraser, our flooring offering and our online proposition."

Reduce Chronic Stress, Depression & Anxiety with these Simple Steps
Stress, depression and anxiety disorders are the modern day plagues. If you suffer from anxiety, depression, panic attacks, nervousness or you have a feeling of sadness which just won't go away, you're not alone. Over 40 million US citizens will be affected every year. The millions of costly antidepressants that are prescribed each year may only temporarily suppress some of the symptoms and can produce disabling side effects. "Psychotropic drugs are not the answer to the critical and growing problem of depression in this country. In fact, I believe that in some ways they contribute to it." Michael B. Schachter, M.D.
Psychotropic drugs act on the mind, and change brain function that results in alterations in perception, mood, or consciousness. Physical dependency and harmful side effects may also accompany psychotropic drug use.

Shirley's Journey to Health
Chronic stress is at epidemic levels in the western world. The World Health Organization estimates that stress-related disorders affect nearly 450 million individuals worldwide.
Millions of people suffer from health complications linked to chronic stress and more than half of all patients visiting their doctor complain of stress-related fatigue. In 2011, in the United States, nearly 75 million unique prescriptions were written for Xanax and Ativan, two anti-anxiety medications.
Linda Page, N.D. Ph.D. "The stress-disease connection is today's norm; the result of every day stressors like air pollutants, toxic reactions to metals or chemical halogens like chlorine and fluoride, chronic low-grade, but debilitating infections, parasite invasions, allergies and sensitivities to today's foods and of course, strong emotional reactions."
It's remarkable how much the foods we eat can impact our brain chemistry and emotions. What and when we eat can make the difference between feeling anxious and staying calm and in control. But most of us don't realize how much our diets influence our moods, thoughts, and feelings until we make a change.
There is increasing evidence that diet may play a causative role in cases of depression. The food production in industrialized societies uses intensive farming and processing techniques. This can contribute to depleted levels of magnesium, omega 3 fatty acids, certain amino acids and other essential nutrients in the food we eat.
Dr Joan Larson, Ph.D believes that many doctors misdiagnose nutritional imbalances as psychological disorders. She argues that most people who are depressed, fatigued or addicted to food, cigarettes or alcohol suffer from a deficiency of vitamins or amino acids that is only exacerbated by drugs like Xanax, Prozac and lithium. Dr. Larson plausibly links biochemical emotional problems with the gradual shift in the American diet over the past 60 years toward sugary, carbohydrate-laden and processed foods, which disturb the body's insulin production and deprive the brain of much needed vitamins and nutrients.
The Microbiome: A Key Regulator of Stress and Neuro-inflammation
According to a study in ScienceDirect, there is a growing emphasis on the relationship between the complexity and diversity of the microorganisms that inhabit our gut (human gastrointestinal microbiota) and health/disease, including brain health and disorders of the central nervous system.
The gastrointestinal microbiota has also emerged as a key regulator of centrally mediated events including stress and neuro-inflammation.
Russell L. Blaylock, M.D - "It has been estimated that 14.8 million Americans suffer from major depressive disorder and of this number 6 million are elderly. If we include anxiety disorders, which commonly accompany depression, the number jumps to 40 million adults. At a cost of $44 billion dollars a year just for care of the seniors, this impacts the national budget as well."
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), by 2030, the amount of disability and life lost as a result of depression will be greater than that resulting from any other condition, including accidents, war, suicide, cancer, and stroke. Depression removes all the joy from people's lives, leaves them unable to function and causes their family and friends much distress. What's even worse is they are told the same old story about their depression and prescribed powerful anti-depressants to "cure" them. These drugs may help temporarily. But that's it. And if you aren't told what depression really is, how can you defeat it?
Russell L. Blaylock, M.D - "Anxiety is a major problem with depression, and vaccinations will greatly worsen the condition. In fact, vaccination, especially multiple vaccinations, will maintain the brain in a state of inflammation that will be self-perpetuating, because the excess release of glutamate in the brain, as well as glutamate in the diet, will further enhance microglial activation and excitotoxicity."
Psychiatric Medications may just be your Problem
Michael B. Schachter, M.D. - "Psychotropic drugs are not the complete answer to the critical and growing problem of depression in this country. In fact, I believe that in some ways they contribute to it."
Dr. Med. Heinrich Kremer of the Niedersachsen and Schleswig-Holstein clinic, specializing in medications of the states Berlin, Bremen, Hamburg, describes in detail the effects of the drug Ritalin in the brain and to introduce alternative, Ritalin-free therapies for restless children. No conscientious doctor will prescribe Ritalin after studying this article.
The FDA has warned that children and adults taking antidepressants can become suicidal in the first weeks of therapy and that physicians should watch patients closely when first giving the drugs or changing dosages. The FDA is asking drug manufacturers to place explicit warnings about the drugs' side effects, including the risk of suicide, on their labels.
Michael B. Schachter, M.D. - "As I sit down to write What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Depression , the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has just approved another antidepressant. The name of the drug doesn't matter; it joins the ranks of about one dozen others already on the market. Presently, more than two dozen additional antidepressants are under development, according to the trade group Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers ofAmerica.
And as you sit today and read this book, another antidepressant has been, is being, or soon will be released to the market, to be followed by others currently in research-and-development or trial phases. While the good intentions of those who work so diligently to find remedies for the millions of people who suffer with depression may be commendable, I remain largely unimpressed. Why? Because regardless of the number of antidepressants introduced to the market or when they appear, the bottom line is that psychotropic drugs are not the complete answer to the critical and growing problem of depression in this country. In fact, I believe that in some ways they contribute to it."
Julian Whitaker, M.D. - "As much as 70 percent of all visits to family doctors or general practitioners are related to chronic stress, high blood pressure, and stoic stress. Stress can be associated with both good and bad circumstances — getting married, having a baby, going through a divorce, losing a loved one, selling a home, or retiring — but none of these situations is inherently stressful.
It's your response to a situation that defines it as stressful. While a little stress can be useful in keeping us on our toes, problems arise when stress becomes chronic. Eventually, chronic stress takes its toll on body and mind, impairing physical and mental health."
by Vamik D. Volkan, M.D.
Stress From Violence, Disaster Can Linger For Years. People who survive natural disasters or severe violence are at high risk for suffering years of post-traumatic stress disorder. In 1988, thousands of Armenians were devastated by a severe earthquake; in that same year, political violence erupted against ethnic Armenians in neighboring Azerbaijan. Both countries formed after the break-up of the Soviet Union. In a study of 78 Armenians who experienced either of these traumas, researchers found that both groups had similar, long-term symptoms of post-traumatic stress.
First widely recognized in veterans of the Vietnam War, post-traumatic stress disorder is now recognized to be a problem in the larger population. Anyone who survives intensely traumatic circumstances may show its signs and symptoms -- including withdrawal from others, flashbacks, and feelings of helplessness. The researchers looked at post-traumatic stress in three groups of adults whom they had first studied 3 years earlier. In one group, subjects had experienced minor earthquake damage, but were exposed to "graphic depictions" of destruction in other parts of the country. In another group, people had their lives directly threatened by the earthquake and had witnessed the death and destruction it caused. Subjects in the third group had experienced persecution in Azerbaijan, suffering threats to their own lives and witnessing the torture or murder of family or friends.
The investigators found that people in the two most seriously traumatized groups had the same level of post-traumatic stress symptoms. Moreover, time did nothing to abate symptoms in either group. On the other hand, depression in these groups had faded. The group that had experienced mild earthquake damage saw their post-traumatic stress symptoms ease.The persistence of post-traumatic stress in the other two groups, the authors write, mirrors findings from studies of World War II prisoners-of-war and Cambodian refugees. Armenians in this study were surrounded by "pervasive trauma reminders" such as destroyed buildings, "shoddy" homes, and media reports of violence in Azerbaijan. In addition, the post-traumatic stress had spurred other emotionally draining problems, such as difficulties at work and in marriage." American Journal of Psychiatry June 2000;157:911-916
CrazyBusy: Overstretched, Overbooked, and About to Snap!
Edward M. Hallowell M.D. - "The rush, the gush, the worry, and the blather (which also includes clutter)" into allies, so that one can have the things one wants with the speed, volume and emotional energy of the crazy-busy lifestyle. The roadmap Hallowell offers is helpful; that is, if one can manage to pick this book out of the never-ending stream of stimuli and find the time to read it."
The adrenal glands function in the body to help handle stress. They act as our body's "shock-absorbers." When the body encounters stress or has low blood sugar, the adrenal glands release the hormone adrenaline into the blood. This hormone immediately increases blood pressure, stimulates the heart, and relaxes the muscles in the lungs. Adrenaline is ideally supposed to be released in situations where "fight or flight" decisions are being made.
In modern society, however, high stress levels cause adrenaline to constantly circulate in the body. This can contribute to nervousness, anxiousness, and insomnia. Exercise, dance, walking, and high-energy work help diminish the levels of adrenaline in the blood. Increased levels of these hormones and their metabolites, and other stress-related chemicals left circulating in the blood awaiting removal, can leave a person feeling anxious, irritable, tense, and nervous.
The multiple stresses of modern day life combined with the standard American diet, along with the consumption or use of sugar, caffeine, alcohol, tobacco, and prescription or recreational drugs can over stimulate and place stress on the adrenal glands. When the intensity and frequency of stress overcomes the level at which a person can cope with such stressors, something is bound to break down. At this point, people become more vulnerable and susceptible to colds, flu, and infections.
People exhibit adrenal gland stress or exhaustion in a variety of ways, some of which can even seem conflicting. Some people exhibit anxiety, nervousness, hyperactivity, or insomnia, while others experience only fatigue or low energy. Some unfortunate individuals experience both. Other signs include overreacting to noises or sudden stimuli, or a craving for salt. One of the most obvious signs of adrenal fatigue is when a person wakes up tired even after a good night's sleep. Because adrenal fatigue and exhaustion have a negative effect on the immune system, these are often the individuals who catch every cold and flu that goes around or are sick during every flu season.
The stress from deepening debt is also becoming a major issue resulting in severe depression and stress-related illnesses. Almost three-quarters of Americans are experiencing financial stress at least some of the time, and nearly a quarter of us are experiencing extreme financial stress, according to a study released today by the American Psychological Association.
Homeopathic Medicine for Chronic Anxiety & Stress
Addictive habits and superficial attempts to change one's lifestyle may not work in severe cases of anxiety or stress because they fail to address the root issues that lead to symptoms. Homeopathy is one of the best ways to address underlying issues and ultimately remove stress and anxiety, which in turn brings physical health if the remedy is prescribed professionally.
Homeopathic Guide to Stress presents inexpensive, easy-to-use ways to self-treat its symptoms and to handle its causes. From nervousness and anxiety to the effects of caffeine, allergies, and long hours in the workplace, we're bombarded with emotional and physical stress every day.
Written in a clear and engaging style, It offers an introduction to homeopathy, with a focus on stress. For more than four dozen specific emotional states or physical causes of stress, Miranda Castro suggests several homeopathic treatments, with clear instructions on how to choose the most appropriate solution. These remedies help you cope with current or recent stressors, and also can be taken as preventive measures.
A comprehensive section describes each remedy in detail and each entry gives a clear picture of who should use It, how, and why. Castro also provides several case studies and practical advice on avoiding and dealing with stress. Homeopathic Guide to Stress Is an easy-to-understand guide to safely and effectively treating the effects of stress at any time of life, from infancy to old age.

Can Stress and Depression Make you Feel Tired?
In the United States and European Union 1 out of 4 persons suffers from tiredness. Why are some people always so full of energy – while you try everything you can think of and still feel tired all the time? Well, the answer is simple – you are probably doing something wrong. The problem is that there are so many different things that can make you feel tired – and while some might be obvious, I'm sure others will surprise you… If you would like to know why you are so tired and how to get the energy back into your life.
Most people do not get enough sleep, and the sleep they do experience is often of poor quality. Substandard sleep causes increased cortisol levels, poor memory and contributes to weight gain, all of which adds to one's stress level. Obtaining enough sleep on a regular basis is essential to stress reduction. Regular exercise also reduces stress by reducing cortisol and releasing the body's natural endorphins. Cut down or eliminate caffeine, alcohol and nicotine as these contribute to stress on the nervous system and adversely effect sleep quality. Increase dietary calcium and magnesium, which are essential nervous system nutrients.
Are You Feeling Emotionally Stressed ?
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is a therapeutic approach to discharging excess emotional distress and liberating one's natural growth process. It has its roots in ancient Chinese medicine and the modern science of Applied Kinesiology.
EFT is the most effective therapy that I know of to rapidly and efficiently resolve the physical consequences of severe emotional trauma.
All, not some, but ALL negative emotions are due to disruptions in one's bioenergy system.
EFT was put together by Gary Craig and is a derivative of Thought Field Therapy that was developed by Roger Callahan. TFT was my first introduction into energy medicine which I learned in 1998.
However, EFT is much more streamlined and seems to achieve fabulous results by balancing one's energy meridians while saying positive affirmations about the addiction in question.
EFT is psychological acupuncture without the needles. It works by inputting kinetic energy (tapping) onto specific acupuncture meridians on the head and chest while actually activating the brain circuits that are involved in the energy disruption by thinking about the problem.
Combining the above with a positive affirmation seems sufficient to disrupt the field that is created from the emotion and its consequence on one's physiology.
EFT centers around the profound effects of the body's subtle energies using the theory that "the cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body's energy system." Accordingly, EFT is an emotional form of acupuncture except that we don't use needles. Instead, we tap with the fingertips to stimulate certain meridian energy points while the client is "tuned in" to the problem.
The subtle energies that circulate throughout the body have been largely ignored (until recently) by western scientists. As a result, our use of them for emotional and spiritual healing has been sparse at best. With EFT, however, we consider these subtle energies to be the front running cause of emotional upsets. As a result, we generate results that are FAR beyond those of conventional methods. Even a cursory review of the case histories on this web site will reveal that.
Further, EFT often provides relief for a very wide range of physical symptoms. This, too, is abundantly clear in our case histories, which provide unmistakable evidence of the link between our physical ailments and our emotional issues.
EFT is a Doorway to the new Healing High-Rise. It is where a growing number of newcomers to this exciting field get their start. We now have thousands of practitioners using EFT throughout the world.
Compared to other techniques, EFT is usually quite gentle and substantial relief is often achieved with little or no pain. This is not true for everyone, however. Some people's issue are so intense that the mere mention of them causes emotional or physical pain. Although truly serious instances of this (sometimes called abreactions) is most likely to occur in seriously emotionally damaged people (best estimate is less than 1% of the population), newcomers to EFT are advised to exercise common sense in this regard and not go where they aren't qualified.
Anyone Can Learn This Technique in Five Minutes
This technique is so amazing it is to good to be true. It has been a major benefit for nearly all of the patients we have trained in it. Most people who were deeply saddened by this terrorists attacks had enormous levels of peace and reassurance after having the technique performed.
In my Journey Into Health I explain how I suffered from debilitating chronic depression for decades. I was also struggling with failing health and a weight problem. I had become a "junkie' of prescription drugs, but instead of getting better, I was only getting worse, much worse. In my thirties, I switched from a SAD diet (Standard American Diet) to a raw food diet. I overcame a lifetime of ill health and depression. Now, in my late sixties, I'm the happiest and healthiest I've ever been with an amazing level of energy and vitality. Following, is a list of nutritional supplements that I take daily to help overcome tension and to optimize my health and immune system.'
Dr. Mary Meagher MD - "People exposed to chronic social conflict experience high levels of stress and consequent dysregulation of the immune system, thereby increasing vulnerability to infectious and autoimmune disease."
Called the 'anti-stress mineral,' magnesium aids in relaxing nerves, relieving tension, assisting digestion, activating enzymes important for protein and carbohydrate metabolism, and modulating the electrical potential across all cell membranes. Magnesium has a calming effect on the nervous system and is frequently used to promote good sleep. Nervous fatigue, stress, depression, tics and twitches, tremors, irritability, hypersensitivity, muscle spasms, restlessness, anxiety, confusion, disorientation and irregular heartbeat all respond to increased magnesium levels.
"I have suffered from depression and anxiety for many years. I never told anyone about what I was going through. However, the people closest to me were aware of my mood swings and how I acted during certain stressful times in my life. I went to my family Doctor to get some help with severe anxiety and depression. Of course, the only thing they can do is prescribe various popular medications that carry all sorts of other symptoms and side effects for which more medications are prescribed, thereby compounding the problems. I learned about a double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial study noted that both depression and bipolar disorder are complicated by glutathione depletion. After taking a natural supplement that help boost my glutathione level, I noticed that I felt better. I had more energy, and most importantly I didn't feel the effects of the depression. I felt 100% better in a matter of days and it only took a short time to decrease and then discontinue the medical prescriptions. Of course, I kept my personal physician completely informed of what I was doing throughout this period. I have heard that discontinuing anti-depressant medication carries with it certain withdrawal stages, but I experienced none of that" Melina Coates Disbury, AB
Aman Shah, MD - "It may sound fishy, but researchers say taking a daily fish-oil supplement may boost the effectiveness -- or even replace -- antidepressants for treating depression in some people. In a new study, people who added a daily dose of fish oil omega-3 fatty acids to their regular antidepressant treatment had significant improvement in symptoms, including anxiety, sleeping problems, sadness, decreased sexual desire, and suicidal tendencies. Researcher Malcolm Peet, MD, of Swallow Nest Court Hospital in Sheffield, England, and colleagues found that patients who took the lowest, 1-gram daily, fish-oil dose showed significant improvements on all major measures of depression compared with those who took a placebo. In particular, 69% of the patients who took the 1-gram dose had a 50% reduction in their symptoms, compared with only 25% of those who took a placebo."
