Lincoln's life was so extraordinary it would be impossible for one film to do it justice. Perhaps the best proof of that actuality is this film. This is not a biopic depicting all of Lincoln's life. Instead it only focuses on one small portion of his years as President. The plot revolves around the debate and struggle that occurred when Lincoln attempted to abolish slavery by passing the thirtieth amendment. Many do not realize just how hard that fight was for Lincoln to win. With the Civil War near its end many argued that the abolishment of slavery would be the wrong way to reunite the country and would only hurt the process towards peace. Members of his own cabinet questioned Lincoln's desire to get this amendment passed. They felt it would do nothing but prolong the already momentously bloody Civil War. Making Lincoln the centerpiece of this film comes with a certain difficulty. Lincoln is more than a man and he is even beyond legend at this point. He is a mortal deity that is as unfathomable as a person can get. In order for this conflict to resonate with us they had to humanize and debunk our already formulated mindset. Otherwise every moment would feel like a foregone conclusion. The film overcomes that issue by presenting us a Lincoln that is subdued and hushed rather than robust and attention seeking. For the first time Lincoln felt like a real person. A lot of credit has to go to Spielberg, Day-Lewis, and screen writer Tony Kushner. They gave us a multitude of small moments that devolved the grandiose nature we immediately apply to Lincoln. Seeing Lincoln quietly lying with his son and having to deal with difficult family issues showed he was more like us than we realize.
Unfortunately when Spielberg's film style did take hold it nearly ruined the movie. While I am a huge Spielberg fan his tendency lately has been to revert to overplayed 'classic' Hollywood tactics. At times he entered into Warhorse like territory when the earnestness and empathy of the moment were over emphasized. Watching a group of African American soldiers recite the Gettysburg address to Lincoln went beyond pandering to the audience and entered a land of cheesiness that nearly derailed an otherwise fantastic opening. Time and time again Spielberg would call out what he was attempting to convey like a sports commentator over explaining a football game. No one can bring a childlike wonderment to a film quite like Spielberg, and that skill has lead him to create some fantastic movies. The issue is that skill does not belong in this movie. We do not need a group of State Representatives applauding a contingent of African Americans as they walk into the Capital building, or a house worker at the White House giving a glazed look of admiration to Lincoln as he slowly walks down the hallway. It was extremely noticeable when the film would demand a certain emotional response. Especially when you compare it to the rest of the film that was a lot more confident. What could have been some of the film's best sequences were tremendously cheapened through overzealous directing.
Lincoln is released on DVD and Blu-ray on June 10th.

Abstract. In this study we analyzed the spatiotemporal variability of streamflow droughts in the Iberian Peninsula from 1945 to 2005. Streamflow series belonging to 187 homogeneously distributed gauging stations across the study area were used to develop a standardized streamflow index (SSI), which facilitated comparison among regimes and basins, regardless of streamflow magnitudes. A principal component analysis was performed to identify homogeneous hydrological regions having common features based on the temporal evolution of streamflows. Identification of drought events was carried out using a threshold level approach. We assessed the duration and magnitude of drought episodes and the changes that occurred between two contrasting periods for each hydrological region. The results showed a trend toward increased drought severity in the majority of regions. Drought duration, magnitude and spatial coverage were found to depend mainly on climatic conditions and the water storage strategies in each basin. In some basins these strategies have altered river regimes, and in others created a high level of dependence on storage and water transfer rates.

Scripture tells us that "by wisdom a house is built." Dennis and Barbara Rainey talk about their early years of marriage and their transition to their new home in Colorado to take on new assignments with Campus Crusade. Reminiscing about their past, Dennis and Barbara talk about their biggest marital adjustments and the arrival of the first of their six children two years later.
Bob: The Bible defines marriage as leaving and cleaving. Sometimes, that means we have to leave people who have been our best friends for years. Here's Barbara Rainey.
Barbara: It's very complicated, and it's hard to do. It's really hard for girls, in particular, because we don't ever like to hurt anybody's feelings. So, it can be a hard thing to do. I've talked to a number of young women, who have struggled with that in that early season of marriage, because they have so many friends and they don't want to hurt their girlfriends' feelings. They want to be loyal to their husband, but they don't want—and it's a real tension.
Bob: This is FamilyLife Today for Thursday, January 29th. Our host is the President of FamilyLife®, Dennis Rainey, and I'm Bob Lepine. How do you make your marriage a priority, without forsaking lifelong friends? We're going to talk about that today. Stay tuned.
Thanks for joining us on the Thursday edition. We've been spending time this week examining the different seasons a woman goes through in her life. We've been doing that by asking your wife to kind of explore the seasons that she's been through in her life. She's joining us, again, on FamilyLife Today. Barbara, welcome back.
And the story you are about to hear is really—largely, as a result of what is captured in Proverbs 24, verses 3 and 4—"By wisdom, a house is built; and by understanding, it is established.
"By knowledge, the rooms are filled with all precious and pleasant riches." This season of Barbara's life—that you are about to hear—is really a story of wisdom gained from the Bible and applying it in her life. As a result, it has built our home. And now, we're kind of looking back on these seasons and kind of celebrating what God has done. And it says, "By understanding, it is established." I thought of how much fun it was, earlier, when we talked about how our marriage was established around Jesus Christ—around the knowledge and experience of Him.
Then, finally, verse 4 talks about "By knowledge, the rooms are filled with all precious and pleasant riches." And that's really the result of her having lived out a life that has been obedient to the Scripture. We're kind of celebrating a life together—that has been filled with all kinds of pleasant and precious riches—maybe not riches in terms of wealth—but a rich life, certainly.
Dennis: This is the Gone with the Wind version.
Bob: Well, we do want to talk about the early years of marriage. That's a chapter—for a lot of women, that's a season that a lot of women go through that's a season where you gain some wisdom, and some knowledge, and some understanding; right?
Bob: Before we dive into that, share again with our listeners about what you've been up to, especially as you start thinking about Easter—which is still a couple of months away—but you've been busy trying to design some resources families can use during the Lenten season / during the Easter season to help remind them of what we're about to celebrate and to use them as a discipleship tool in their home.
Barbara: Well, I have been—and thanks for the opportunity to do this. You know—just as we spend a lot of time anticipating Christmas, I think we need to spend a little bit more time anticipating Easter. I have a real burden to help families find ways to prepare for Easter and to celebrate it in a way that is more worthy of the event itself because Easter is the pivotal event in all of history. Yet, we don't put a lot of effort into Easter, relative to what we do for Christmas.
Bob: "Oh, man, next week is Easter. I've got to get some new shoes for the kids"; right?
Barbara: Yes. Yes; and that's about all the preparation we put into it. So, we have an Easter banner that you can hang that says, "I am the Resurrection and the Life." But we also have several things—that you can actually have discussions about—with your children in your home.
Starting on Palm Sunday, you read a very short little card that has a short story in it. It talks about Jesus coming into Jerusalem on the donkey and what that means and "Why is that important that we know about that and talk about that?" Then, on Monday, it talks about what He probably did on Monday / what He probably did on Tuesday. You walk through Holy Week, as a family. It's a way to prepare your heart for the celebration of Resurrection Sunday.
Dennis: And it doesn't take that long.
Barbara: It does not take that long.
Barbara: They are very short.
Dennis: —and then, have a little discussion with your kids about what they mean. And I'll tell you, Bob, we really need to use these days, not just explain to our children what happened, but why it happened.
Bob: Well, folks can find out more by going to your website. If they go to FamilyLifeToday.com, click the link that says, "GO DEEPER," at the top of the page, there is a link there for Ever Thine Home®, which is the name for the resources that you've been creating. All of those resources are available, online.
There is a catalogue we can send folks. So, if they want to call 1-800-FL-TODAY and ask for the catalogue, we'll send it out to them.
Now, let's talk about the early years of marriage for you. Where'd you go on your honeymoon?
Barbara: Well, we had this very interesting and very fun honeymoon. My husband likes to plan and think ahead. So, he planned this honeymoon—we were married in Houston. We spent a couple nights in Houston. We, then, drove to Colorado which is where we were going to be living. We stayed there a night or two. Then, we got in the car, and we travelled around the state of Colorado. We camped one night. We stayed in a hotel another night. We just kind of went somewhere different every night.
I had never been to Colorado in my life. So, we went all over the state for about ten days?—was it ten days or was it two weeks?
Dennis: It was about ten days.
Bob: Camping on the honeymoon? That was okay.
Bob: Now, you had known Dennis for a couple of years before you guys got married—you'd been friends in college.
Barbara: Yes; exactly. And that was one of them; and then, we went fishing. I'd never been fishing in my life. I mean, we had a lot of fun—I mean, I enjoyed the camping trip—but I just nearly froze to death.
Dennis: We went in the off-season. So, we stayed at the Broadmoor Hotel for 21 bucks.
Dennis: I mean, we went all over the state.
And the interesting thing was—Barbara and I have been places, all over the world, on behalf of FamilyLife, and have visited some very fun, romantic spots. I've asked her, on numerous occasions, what's her favorite and—haven't asked her recently—but for years, that honeymoon was her favorite of all the trips we'd made, notwithstanding the snow at 8,000 feet.
Barbara: No, I did not. I know there are brides who do, but I didn't. I was so convinced and so confident that God had led us to be married, but I just—I really didn't have any doubts / I didn't have any concerns.
Bob: Now, the year before, you'd been on the campus at the University of South Carolina, working with Campus Crusade for Christ—working with college students. That's what your life was going to be all about.
Barbara: I would be married.
Barbara: No, I didn't. But I wasn't really too worried about that either because I had a really good role model in my mom. She was a good wife to my dad, and they had a good relationship. I just didn't come into marriage with a lot of anxiety or a lot of confusion about what I was supposed to do as a wife, honestly.
Bob: Insecurity? Were you insecure?
Barbara: Oh, yes. I was real insecure. I—because I'm a firstborn and a perfectionist, I really, really wanted to do this job right. I was determined I was going to do it right, and I was going to be the best wife ever. So, I did struggle with that; but I started worrying about failing, later on down the road—but I didn't start out being afraid to fail.
Bob: Your priorities, the year before, had been all about the Kingdom—all about ministry / all about discipling college students. Your priorities had to shift—now that you were setting up home in Boulder, Colorado, married to Dennis, and you were a wife.
Did you just naturally flow into these new priorities easily; or did you find yourself thinking, "I want to be back doing what I was doing last year"?
Barbara: No, I never wanted to go back to what I was doing last year. I think, for the most part, the transition was a relatively easy one for me. Now, again, we had moments / we had struggles; but it was a relatively easy transition.
Bob: And I guess I'm thinking today of young women who get married. They've been to college. They've had a career focus—they've maybe had a year or two—three/four years in the job—and they're maybe starting to feel some of the "Boy, if I stay at this job five years, I get a promotion and I get a raise." Now, they are married. They are trying to move it in, alongside a thriving career. They're finding that the hours in the day have shrunk for them. You know what I'm talking about?
Barbara: Oh, I do know what you are talking about. I think part of the reason I didn't experience that is because I was still doing, when we got married, what I did when I was single.
I was doing ministry on a campus; and then, after we got married, I was doing ministry again on a different campus. So, I didn't have that sort of ripping away and the confusion of identity.
Dennis: I think the reason that didn't happen, Bob, is because she didn't change missions. She had been about a mission of making an impact on people's lives with the gospel of Jesus Christ on the college campus. Well, we just moved her down to high school as she was working with me because that was a part of my job.
—I think, when a marriage begins with a pair of people / a husband and a wife, yielded to Jesus Christ on His mission for their lives—I'm telling you—there will still be bumps in the road / there will be curves, and hills, and all kinds of issues; but it'll settle a lot of problems on the frontend.
Bob: I think a lot of young women today, who are leading very full single lives—whether it is career, their group of friends, stuff they're doing at church, activities—their life is pretty full. Then, they meet a guy and they fall in love; and they're getting married. Nobody's stopped to say: "You don't have time in your life to keep doing everything you've been doing and add a husband to that. So, you're going to have to figure out what gets carved away because being a wife and building a relationship with a new husband—that's going to take some time and some energy. You can't just shoehorn it in"; can you?
Barbara: I agree. I agree with what Dennis said about having a common mission. I think that's central. That's the first most important thing; but one of the gifts that we started out with—that we did not plan for / we didn't expect that it would be—was that we started out our marriage with neither one of us having a set of friends from before marriage.
I often say to young women, who do get married—that one of the very best things they can do is make some kind of a change—they may not be able to literally move to a new place, like we did—but make some kind of a change where you're both starting out together in the same field—whether it's a church, or a neighborhood, or something because we were forced to depend upon each other—we were friends with each other. Our relationship really grew quickly because we did everything together.
—we never, even in that year-and-a-half we were there—we never developed another couple friends even. We just did everything the two of us.
Dennis: —but I want her to share with our audience because this was one of the big adjustments in this opening season of our lives together—was me asking her: "What are you thinking? What are you feeling? What's going on in your life?" because she was a lot quieter than I ever imagined, after I married her.
Barbara: Yes, I didn't say a whole lot. [Laughter] And he would often—he'd say to me, "A penny for your thoughts." I'd go, "Well, I don't know." I'd think about it for a while. Then, I'd say a little something; but we developed this understanding—I'll tell them about the cans.
So, I was very, very shy; and I was very quiet. And I, as I said earlier, really wanted to win; and I wanted to do this right.
Bob: You'd pull way back?
Dennis: Had a judgment about the sentence.
Bob: So, what about the cans?
Barbara: No, I don't think that's necessarily the answer—that just happened to be what we had.
Bob: —outside the marriage looks like.
Bob: So, if you used to get together with your girlfriends three nights a week—now, that you are married—maybe, it's one night every other week instead of three nights a week that you are doing something like that.
Barbara: Yes, you really do have to make some adjustments in favor of the marriage relationship because, when you do get married, that needs to become the most important relationship in your life. You need to be feeding it the most, and growing it the most, and paying the most attention to it.
You don't have to ignore your friends, if you come into marriage and you're living where you grew up and you've got all these friends. On the other hand, they need to, maybe, take second place; or maybe, you don't maintain all 20 best friends.
You may have to kind of slowly back away from some of them. It's very complicated, and it's hard to do. It's really hard for girls, in particular, because we just don't like to hurt anybody's feelings. So, it can be a hard thing to do. I've talked to a number of young women, who have struggled with that in that early season of marriage because they have so many friends and they don't want to hurt their girlfriends' feelings; and they want to be loyal to their husband—it's a real tension.
Bob: It's those kinds of things, where you're starting to make those adjustments. This requires some time and some grace for a young wife to kind of begin to wear the clothing of being a wife.
Bob: And we always underestimate it.
Barbara: And we always underestimate it, no matter what your age, because it's not just for young brides—it's for any bride of any age / any season of life. It is always a bigger adjustment than we expect.
Dennis: And one of the ways it manifests itself is kind of how we spend our Saturdays. Barbara thought I was going to be like her dad, which was a giant error because he was a brilliant engineer—who his idea of tinkering—you know, having fun on a weekend would be to tear down an engine and rebuild it. Why don't you share what happened, early in our marriage, and what happened on a Saturday—kind of your perspective of it?
Barbara: Yes, I just thought Saturdays were for work because, in my family, we all worked every Saturday. We raked the leaves, and we mowed the lawn.
We trimmed the hedges, and we washed the storm windows. I mean, all of us worked together on the weekends—every Saturday.
Dennis: And my dad let the yard die in the summer. [Laughter] He didn't do yard work.
Bob: Didn't trim the hedges.
Dennis: I don't remember my dad ever raking a leaf.
Barbara: Yes, and it wasn't that I intentionally compared Dennis to my dad. I just assumed that all families were like that because my family was the family that I knew.
Barbara: So that was my standard. I assumed that his family was like that. So, I thought—on Saturdays, we would work at something—we would paint furniture / we would hang pictures on the wall. We would do some kind of work.
Bob: And what did he think Saturdays were for?
—kind of watch the game. And it was like a buzzard that came in and kind of did a circle, as buzzards do, around that easy chair that I had wrapped around me.
Bob: Didn't say anything?—just kind of flew around?
Dennis: It just flew around and didn't land—and kind of went into the kitchen and banged some pots around. Being the sensitive guy that I am, I kind of figured out that the buzzard didn't like the kind of action I was providing on that.
Barbara: We had lots and lots and lots of conversations about Saturdays.
Dennis: —that are okay your rookie year, but they are not good to keep repeating.
Bob: Okay. The rookie season went on for a while.
Barbara: Yes, it was a long rookie season on that topic!
Barbara: We did, briefly, because I remember we had a—I came from a family of four. I thought, "You know, four or five"; and he was thinking, "Two or three." And we just talked about it, but we didn't make decisions.
Bob: You were kind of okay with whatever—you weren't thinking much about it.
Bob: Did you talk about how long you wanted to wait to start a family?
Barbara: —I'm sure we did.
Bob: How long did you wait before you started a family?
Bob: At the delivery room?
Barbara: No, we were home.
Barbara: But we were only home a week—I think she was a week old.
Dennis: We had diapers—we were in the game.
Bob: Well, we will hear more about the diaper years tomorrow. But let me encourage listeners, who have not yet had a chance, this week, to go to Barbara's website and see the resources that you have been working on in the current season of life that you're in.

It's Go Time: How to Fight Policies Like the Health Care Bill
Introducing CallOut
— 09.29.17 Billy Silverman, Director of Content
The news moves fast. This week, the Republican effort to repeal the ACA in 2017 gave its death rattle. This time last week, however, things were looking a little bleaker.
The Graham-Cassidy healthcare bill, the GOP's latest attempt to repeal and "replace" Obamacare, looked like it might secure the needed 50 votes in the Senate. One of the bill's authors, Republican Senator Bill Cassidy, had promised in a live interview with Jimmy Kimmel that his health care bill would pass what he called the "Kimmel Test" — that it would protect people with pre-existing conditions from getting screwed by not letting insurance companies cap what they'll pay.
This turned out to be a hollow promise. Cassidy's bill would have allowed states to abandon the ACA's regulations mandating that insurance companies charge the same premiums to people regardless of their health status.
In response, a few BSDers quickly created the Kimmel Test, inspired by Cassidy's promise to Jimmy Kimmel, using our product CallOut. CallOut lets your audience or constituents call, tweet at, or email their government representatives with only a few clicks. Contact information for the President, Vice President, U.S. Senate, U.S. House, State Senates, State Houses, and Municipal Governments is built into the tool, so it's ready for nearly any kind of advocacy work.
We've been working with clients to fight for the ACA for months, but this time we wanted to supplement that work with a pro-bono effort of our own. The plug-and-play nature of CallOut allowed us to stand up a great-looking page within hours, and thanks to the tool's visual flexibility, the final design looked quite a bit like our initial sketches. We were ready to start promoting the Kimmel Test on Twitter and to our networks and get people calling Congress.
The Kimmel Test CallOut page made it easy for citizens to demand that their senators oppose the Graham-Cassidy bill.
But as I said, the news moves fast. Within those few hours, John McCain announced his opposition to the bill, effectively killing it. Still, it felt good to be able to jump on a moment with something polished that had the potential to drive meaningful action. Because events in the legislative space can unfold so quickly, it's more important than ever to have access to turnkey solutions that allow you to jump into action with little notice.
And the next time one of these moments comes around, CallOut will have even more tricks up its sleeves. Along with new reporting capabilities, social metadata, and international features, the update will allow for custom targets. In our #KimmelTest example, once it became clear that the bill was no longer much of a threat, we could have directed our audience to contact Jimmy Kimmel thanking him for driving awareness around pre-existing conditions. We'll be able to say more about the next version of CallOut very soon.
In the meantime, we're just grateful Graham-Cassidy won't be able to pass — and we're proud of our clients who fought for this victory.

Robert Owen was born in Wales on 14 May 1771. He was apprenticed to a cloth merchant before working in retail, machine-manufacturing and as manager of a mill. In 1798 he visited the New Lanark Mills founded by his future father-in-law, David Dale. In 1799 he took over and became famous for his pioneering work on employee welfare and improvements in productivity. He called for a system of national education and reductions in working-hours, purchased the township of New Harmony in the USA for a new type of community (which later failed) and inspired others to set up co-operative societies. In 1835 he founded the Rational Society with branches that organised local lectures and events. He died on 17 November 1758 at his birth-place and was buried there. New Lanark is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Robert Owen, New Lanark, and Anne Carolina Dale, Glasgow, were proclaimed on the 29th September for the first and last time. The entry in the Old Parish Register (OPR) for Lanark is on a page headed 1799.

La densitat aparent és una propietat dels materials en pols o granulats entre altres sòlids en estat de "divisió" amb especial referència als components minerals del sòl, grava, substàncies químiques, productes farmacèutics ingredients en productes alimentaris i altres masses corpusculars de matèria en partícules. Es defineix com la massa de moltes partícules del material dividides pel volum total que aquestes ocupen El volum total inclou el volum de les partícules, el volum buit entre les partícules i el volum dels porus interns.

La densitat aparent no és una propietat intrínseca d'un material; pot canviar depenent de com es manegi el material Per exemple una pols posada en un cilindre tindrà una determinada densitat aparent, si aquest cilindre pateix una pertorbació, les partícules de pols es mouran i normalment quedaran més juntes entre elles, resultant en una densitat aparent més alta que abans de la pertorbació.

En el sòls
La densitat aparent del sòl depèn en gran manera dels minerals que componen el sòl i del grau de la compactació. La densitat del quars és al voltant de 2,65g/cm³ però la densitat aparent d'un sòl mineral normalment es troba entre 1,0 i,6g/cm³. Els sòls amb molt contingut de matèria orgànica i algunes argiles friables poden tenir una densitat aparent per sota d'1g/cm³

En un sòl arenós la densitat aparent està compresa entre 1,3 i 2, en un sòl llimós, entre 0,7 i 1,6, i en un sòl argilós, entre 1,1 i 1,9.

Cash or capital — money — is a necessary ingredient for any successful business. Generally the more of it you have … the better. "Dollars" (in some form) are used for all sorts of things essential to running your firm — financing inventory, investing in real estate, buildings, equipment; paying your employees and covering all the other expenses you incur as a result of running your business. Additional dollars sourced from retained earnings (profits from your business), loans (debt) or investments by the owners (owner's equity) can be used to fund growth.
Some business people might be of the opinion that it would be great if you could keep everything "in house," i.e. — you had enough initial investment cash or sufficient earnings and cash flow so that you did not have to deal with the banking industry/outside creditors. However, as economists, we would argue that for almost all feed and grain firms, banks provide a valuable service that can improve the return on your own or others' investment (owner's equity) in your company. In this month's column, we will discuss your relationship with your bank and the role they can play in helping make your feed and grain business successful.
There are a number of services your banker may be able to provide your feed and grain business. In today's world of digital and online tools, many or most of the services discussed below are ones with which they can assist you (adapted from "5 Surprising Ways Your Bank Can Help Your Business," Inc. magazine).
Cash flow is a challenge you have to deal with as manager. Planting and other spring work often brings the need to purchase inventory a couple of months before sales of the product will occur. In other situations, taking advantage of supplier discount programs may mean purchasing months before the sale. Financing that inventory/taking advantage of these programs may well require some planning with your banker. You should be prepared to examine the accounts receivable policies you have with your customers and the payables that you have with your suppliers as well -- in order to find ways to get paid faster or to take better advantage of trade discounts – better managing cash in the process.
Your banker may have digital and/or online platforms to help you automate functions like payroll and recurring payments to save time. Careful planning and strategy here can keep cash in your business until it needs to be transferred. Digital payroll solutions can deposit employee pay conveniently into their personal bank accounts. This can also allow you to better manage your day-to-day cash flow, since you are not waiting for checks to clear. Along with these services, your bank may assist you with handling tax withholdings and other state and federal law compliance.
A good business banker should have a robust network of community/industry contacts and should be willing to leverage these relationships to assist your company. You should consider using your banker when you need professional recommendations such as an attorney, accountant, HR consultant or new vendor/supplier for IT services, and so on.
She suggests an annual meeting between your business, your banker, your accountant and your attorney if you utilize one to discuss your firm's goals and how you can work together as a team to achieve them.
You should meet with your banker at least annually to discuss your plans for growth or any other longer-term issues you are thinking through that might affect your need for capital and/or the structure of that capital (short, intermediate, long-term).
Ask them to perform an account review to evaluate your expenditures and identify potential ways to save money. In addition, a good business banker can help you identify and pursue important growth opportunities. Involving them in your business strengthens your relationship and can give you a great ally both within and outside of your community.
In simple terms, leverage is the measure of debt (borrowed dollars) to equity (dollars the owners have invested in the business) in your feed and grain business. In general, raising capital for your firm can be achieved via three methods: investors or owners provide the funds (owner's equity); it can be borrowed (debt) typically from a bank; or it can come from your business profits (retained earnings).
Debt financing means borrowing money that is to be repaid over a period of time, usually with interest. This is where your banker comes in – as they can be the source of this debt – and this is one of the reasons banks exist – to loan capital to individuals and businesses.
While using debt to grow your business has attendant risk (discussed in a bit more detail below), if your business is profitable using debt or leverage can increase the owners' return on investment (ROI) as discussed below – as you are using someone else's money to make money for you.
"In our example (see box above), Grain Elevator B (above) has a significantly higher return on investment because it is profitable and is more highly leveraged.
We must state some caveats about risk here.
Companies that are highly leveraged may be at risk of bankruptcy if they are unable to make payment on their debt.
Highly leveraged firms may be unable to find new lenders if they need one, or their current lender may be unwilling to loan them additional funds which may prevent them from taking advantage of new opportunities that emerge.
Heavily leveraged businesses may experience continuing cash flow problems as they grow.
While we are not necessarily promoting the use of debt, we would emphasize that it can be used prudently as a tool to grow your business and improve your return on investment.
So what relationship do you want with your banker? For it to be beneficial to both parties, we would advocate you be proactive and communicate regularly. If you are experiencing cash flow problems, talk with your banker, seek their input, and discuss the ways you are working to address the problem (such as: better communications with your customers, adjustment of your credit terms to encourage more timely payment, better determination of customer credit worthiness). Your bank can provide operating loans to help meet these short-term cash flow needs.
As mentioned above, share your ideas about growth and how you anticipate achieving that growth. Short-term financing can assist with the purchase of rolling stock like bulk feed trucks, grain bins or new feed mixers. Longer-term financing can help you buy additional land and/or facilities for expansion.
If you work hard on the relationship with your bank and value it, share your satisfaction with others – your banker will appreciate your word of mouth.

Aequora at Ashland Elementary
ABOUT OUR SITE AND AEQUORA
The Ashland Elementary School is located in Lexington, KY. At Ashland Elementary, we are proud to partner with The Paideia Institute and offer Aequora as an after-school program.
Aequora is a K-8 curriculum focusing on literacy education via Latin. Led by independent site-coordinators, Aequora has expanded to over 30 sites in 12 states. At Ashland Elementary, we have chosen Aequora because we believe in the benefits of a classical education. Through The Paideia Institute's Aequora curriculum, our volunteers harness the classical languages' power to improve literacy while making the ancient Mediterranean world fun and accessible to students of all backgrounds. To support Aequora, please click on the button below.
Support Aequora
HOW WE TEACH AEQUORA
Ashland integrates an in-depth study of the arts as students benefit from studies in dance/drama, art, chorus, keyboarding, orchestra and band. An innovative and creative arts team weaves the arts into the curriculum on a five-day rotation as well as an additional hour on F.A.C.T. Friday (Fine Arts Cultural Tract). At Ashland Elementary, the Aequora program runs as part of the F.A.C.T. Friday rotation. Aequora at Ashland meets in room 220 at 8:50am every Friday. Students attend for seven weeks before switching to a different Friday class. Joe teaches by speaking Latin to the students daily about their everyday life, following the Aequora curriculum and supplementing with stories and conversations about stuffed animals.

this week…has been a week from hell!
Monday was about the same as usual at my job…extremely busy, but that makes it go by faster…seems like there were more mistakes that people didn't catch that we had to, and therefore had to fix.
Tuesday was more of the same…plus we discovered two people got overpaid, one was not an issue, but the second one it's going to take a bit more doing to fix the problem.
and Friday…umm..can I get a do-over on Friday? one whole division's direct deposits didn't go through…this wouldn't normally be a big deal, except that it was a manager pay week, so it affected A LOT more people :hammer and none of them were very happy about it! plus the fact that the people that process our payroll outright lied to us about what was going on…it was a very stressful day, to top off a very stressful week.
ok…to wrap this up, the pictures I promised!
yes, I was losing my 'teeth' on that one!
Well at least Monday you had some good times to offset the tough day ~ the rest of the week can't help you on an uplifted swing *big smile*!!!
Hmmm I think the balloon was the cutest!


Imagine, that you want to add some indexes into your DB and of course you want to do it with zero downtime for your app.
If you know, each migration in Rails wrapped by transaction and in this case - you database becomes unavailable for write operations.
In Rails migrations, you can use the algorithm option to trigger a concurrent index build on your database table.
For example, we recently noticed that we miss a database index for accessing our products database table.
Our products table is really big - for example 10 million rows and we can't allow migration to block it.
This allows PostgreSQL to build the index without locking, that prevent concurrent inserts, updates, or deletes on the table. Using indexes migration lock out writes (but not reads) on the table.
But what if you need to rebuild invalid indexes? Usually you have two choices - use REINDEX command or drop the index and try to re-build it again.
Please keep in mind, that REINDEX command lock the table for writes, and works without concurrency. So, it's not optimal and can be used only on small tables.
Using second option you should drop the index and then re-build the index using the concurrently flag again.


As self-described evangelists for the virtues of sourcing produce from regeneratively-run, ethically-managed farms, we were grateful and very pleased to see The Australian run a story that explored ethical eating.
However, we couldn't help arcing up a bit at the headline - 'Ethically-sourced Chrissy food will cost an arm and a leg'. We understand that the sub-editor was looking for a hook and that tapping into stereotypes about value and exploitation is an easy way to attract attention. But we're convinced that the public at large is ready and able to cope with a much more nuanced and honest conversation about the true cost of cheap food. It's time to jettison the patronising scare-mongering and start a much more robust conversation about value, health, food security and fair access to nutritional food.

What Is a Thesis in an Essay? Check It Out!
In academic writing, almost every paper should entail a solid and concise thesis statement. It usually takes 1-2 sentences and reflects the main point of discussion as well as clearly presents the purpose of writing. If you question yourself 'what is a thesis statement in an essay' you should understand that it is the key to success in essay writing. If you strive to get the best grades in any subject, it is of primary importance to learn how to compose a thesis statement writing.
If you do not know how to write a thesis for an essay, begin with exploring the depth of the subject. You should double check the task file and make sure you understand the topic. If the focus is too broad, it should be narrowed down to one specific research question. Do not think that discussing a couple of points in your essay is a good idea. It is preferable to choose one specific topic and explore it from different perspectives.
Read your topic a couple of times and create a question that will pertain to it. The answer to this question can be your future thesis statement. Do not create a very long thesis statement with many details, which will confuse the reader. Writing a thesis should not be compared with writing a paragraph and, obviously, you cannot squeeze all your opinions in one sentence.
Now it's time to check if your research thesis statement writing is successful or not. Evaluate every word from your thesis. Check your topic and think if the thesis statement reflects it. Your thesis should give readers a hint about the future paper structure.
Follow a common structure of creating an introductory paragraph, meaning that a thesis of an essay should be placed in the end. The last sentence of the introduction usually creates a bridge between the topic and the arguments presented in the main body.
Find a couple of useful hints that will help you avoid the most common mistakes in your essay writing.
Your essay thesis should clearly reflect the purpose of writing. An extensive thesis with many details is inappropriate if you have to write a 1-2 page paper.
Do not use a quotation directly in the thesis statement. Actually, introductory paragraphs should not include quotes as a part of your evidential support. They must be included in the main body. Do not forget that there should be no more than 10% of direct quotations.
Do not use too elaborate and 'high' language. Your goal is not to surprise professor, but create a decent essay with a reasonable thesis statement.
Be original in writing. Do not discuss a point of view that does not belong to you, especially if you disagree with it. Your professor definitely knows what has been already said by others. Using ideas of others in your paper can be considered as plagiarism, so be sure you properly present the in-text citations if you borrow any information from outside sources.

GOP outspending Democrats in almost every competitive Iowa Senate race
Saturday, Oct 20 2018
As was the case two years ago, Democratic candidates are at a financial disadvantage in almost all of the Iowa Senate districts both parties are targeting.
The disparity adds another challenge to a party already facing a difficult path to gaining ground in the upper chamber. Republicans currently hold 29 of the 50 Senate seats and are guaranteed to pick up the district independent Senator David Johnson is vacating.
Eleven Iowa Senate races to watch in 2018
Thursday, Sep 6 2018
Republicans are all but guaranteed to maintain control of the Iowa Senate after November and could expand their majority, now at 29 out of 50 seats. However, Democrats have a chance to pick up a few districts as they work toward winning back the chamber in 2020.
Chaz Allen retiring: Democrats need new candidate in Iowa Senate district 15
Friday, Jul 20 2018
The hill for Democrats to climb in the Iowa Senate just got steeper. State Senator Chaz Allen announced today that he will not seek a second term because of an unspecified "new business opportunity."
Iowa legislative recap: Constitutional amendments
Iowa lawmakers went home for the year on May 5. In the coming weeks, Bleeding Heartland will catch up on some of the legislature's significant work that attracted relatively little attention.
Two proposed state constitutional amendments passed both chambers and could appear on the 2020 general election ballot, if the House and Senate approve them in the same form during either 2019 or 2020.
Three other constitutional amendments cleared one chamber in 2017–in one case unanimously–then stalled in the other chamber as lawmakers completed this two-year session. Those ideas may resurface next year. But since changes to the state constitution must be passed by two consecutively elected legislatures before landing on the general election ballot (the last step in the process), Iowa voters would not be able to ratify those proposals until November 2022 at the earliest.
Kim Reynolds quietly signed unconstitutional immigration bill
Wednesday, Apr 11 2018
Governor Kim Reynolds has signed a bill designed to force Iowa police and sheriffs to assist with federal immigration enforcement.
In so doing, she undermined public safety and constitutional rights against unreasonable searches and seizures–not only for those living in Iowa without legal authorization, but also for immigrants who are lawfully present or even U.S. citizens.

The March 21 debate on Senate File 2117 started off with a bang.


Being an advocate of learning how to restore fertility before it is too late gives me a somewhat distorted view of the world. I do recognize that there is such a thing as too much population. Indeed, among my pleasant childhood memories are any number of trips into the Florida wilderness, generally led by my big brother. We would cycle many miles to a place where a lake had drained long before and where there were innumerable snakes to be hunted. We would push along streams for hours looking for piles of pebbles among which we could find fossilized sharks' teeth. There was always the dream of finding an arrowhead, but I don't think we ever did.
He was more energetic and keener of eye and found many teeth where I found few. I did find a very large one, more than half an inch long, which I spotted from a high bank. At first I thought it was a leaf. There were vines we could cut and swing on like Tarzan. There were animal tracks.
Of course it is all now buried under urban sprawl. The remaining wild in those areas is pretty much swamp into which anything of interest is likely to sink forever, and where snakes and other animals are few. One friend of mine told me that there was indeed a place where arrowheads could be found. It was a bit of high ground near a stream, which makes good sense. But even when he told me the whole area had long been paved over for a parking lot for a shopping center.
They were strange and wonderful adventures. I never in my life have understood why you would let anybody move into your county, much less your country. There was always only so much magic, and magic did not extend to suburbs.
Meanwhile the world's population has gone from 2 billion to 7 billion, and I sense magic is on the wane everywhere. There is a place in South America where a girl once had a vision of the Virgin Mary, but she wasn't sure of just where, only that it was near a certain church. So the church authorities decided that the vision was true bill and the site should be preserved. So the whole area, more or less covering how far a child could walk, was declared holy ground: no building, development, hunting, mining, cutting trees or farming. Well that spot has animals that have gone extinct everywhere else on the continent. There just aren't any other untouched areas. There are parks, but they are more recent. So yes, too many people.
But I still would like to see some people remain, at least a couple of million. That way we could maintain a literate society that was technologically competent, although probably not as advanced as now.
Some years ago somebody (Paul Ehrlich of the Population Bomb) had predicted that we would run out of natural resources and that doomsday was at a time now in the past. Another (Julian Simon of the Cato Institute) countered that technology was progressing so well that the price of metals was going to fall. (The Revenge of Malthus ECONOMIST vol. 400 no. 8745 August 6, 2011 page 65) The outcome is nicely charted by the journal.
Simon won the bet, but as you see the prices went down and then went back up again. I rather suspect that the rise was due to unexpected prosperity (relative to now anyway) than to unexpected population. However the take home message seems to be yes, there are limits.
All I insist on is that there are limits on both sides.

Drew Reams studies unselected duplication formation, and recently found an eel in the DNA!
Recall that duplication formation is a fundamental small-effect driver of evolutionary adaptation, and TIDs may be the primum mobile of most or all duplications. Drew's "recalcitrant" duplication strains — those with joints not easily determined by multiplex PCR — are a class which should include TIDs. To analyze them, he sequences their genomes by Illumina technology.
We think TID formation often begins with a snap-back of a 3′ end at a short inverted repeat, forming a stem-loop structure which then initiates DNA synthesis using self as template.
A subsequent template switch restores the fork and finishes the TID. See the excellent article in our Encyclopedia.
The extensive secondary structures at such symmetric TID joints are toxic and rarely observed. Instead, remodelling asymmetric deletions are selected spontaneously, yielding "SJ" ("short junction") joints. David Leach has shown that sbcCD backgrounds tolerate such structures by not cutting them with the endonuclease product.
Drew wondered what would happen to duplication frequencies in such backgrounds, which may allow the cell to survive the two initial steps of TID formation and increase the yield of duplications. To enhance stem-loop persistance, he also made the cells recQ to prevent stem melting.
One sequenced duplication was in F'128 of strain DR397. It had a lacZ read depth 3-fold greater than the chromosome with remaining plasmid DNA about 9-fold greater. In addition, there was a large deletion extending from traI up to lacZ accounting for ~20% of the plasmid.
When we inspected the anomalous read-pair data, we discovered two symmetrical TID joins. We were able to confirm these by showing that reads right at the edge of the deletion window fully contained these joints.
Drew's suspicions were vindicated. Removing activities which cut stem loop structures or prevent them from folding encourages secondary structure formation and reduces counterselection of the long symmetrical products of snap back and strand switching.
But, what's the meaning of the enormous deletion? There are a couple of models which come to mind.
Other related models are possible, with the order of the snapbacks and strand switches reversed, with double strand switches instead of snapbacks, etc. Nevertheless, we favor the second model above, as it only involves two steps to get the essential intermediate, while many generations can pass before selection of the final product.
An interesting aspect of the TID model is the inevitability of the remodeling event. When the origin is itself in the TID, counterselection on a large number of unnecessary genes leads easily to their deletion by recombination. The resulting fitness increase will lead to expansion in the population of the symmetric inversion and eventual extinction of the TID.

The fall season is the ideal time to tackle a lot of remodeling projects, that are much more challenging to do in the cold and wet winter, or hot and dry summer.
Many of the common materials that we use during a renovation are actually best installed during moderate temperatures, and of course a calm environment.
The last thing you want to be doing is patching up the roof, or hauling heavy materials in and out of your home during a blizzard or a heat wave.
In this article, we'll discuss some of the best remodeling projects to do during the fall season.
Revamping the exterior of your home can be one of the most rewarding projects to take on.
It can really improve your curb appeal, up the value of your home, and give you a feeling of pride every time you pull into the driveway.
While enhancing the appearance and function of your home's exterior might not be the most challenging or expensive task on your list.
It is best tackled after the hot summer and before the cold winter.
When you start your remodeling projects for the exterior, you have a few options depending on your budget and specific situation.
You can simply wash the exterior and apply a fresh coat of paint, or change the siding materials altogether.
Either way, you don't want to be rolling paint and installing siding during a really hot day, and you don't want to deal with water or paint during a really cold day.
There are many home renovation projects that we take on purely for the aesthetic benefit of a new and exciting space.
However, not all renovations are to please the eye.
In fact, many are necessary to ensure our houses keep us safe, warm, and dry during the colder months.
One of these remodeling projects is making sure that the roof is strong and sealed up tightly.
It would be impossible to work on a roof during a wet winter. Also, it's incredibly unsafe to walk around on it if the ice covers the roof.
However, throughout the year our roof goes through a ton of stress and it never truly gets a break.
Environmental factors like wind, hot temperatures, heavy snow, and torrential downpours put our roofing materials through the ringer.
On top of all that, various species of birds like to eat the shingles and then drop their acidic waste onto the roof, Which can cause considerable damage over time?
This is why inspecting your roof at least once a year can't hurt.
You would be surprised at the amount of damage a small bird can do to a very expensive roof. Whether you find that you need a small patch or an entirely new roof, you will be glad you found and fixed the problem before the snow or rain hits.
When thinking of proper climate control, our minds almost immediately think about insulation and thermostats.
What some don't realize is that properly insulated and installed windows can be one of the most important aspects of keeping a space comfortable.
The triple pane windows have better insulation than the older ones, the draft that these older windows could let in is quite alarming.
If your home is quite old and you have never had any new windows or doors installed, now is the time to do it.
When you remove your windows you want the weather conditions to be optimal.
If it is raining, snowing, damp or cold, you could run the risk of getting mold or mildew during the installation.
Therefore, tackling this project in the fall is perfect. Better windows will not only keep your home feeling more comfortable.
But they can prevent heat loss and gain by over 25%. Windows can also have a major impact on the appearance of your home and change the style completely.
Depending on the design you are after, you can choose modern black frames or traditional wood frames.
The options are endless and the results can be life-changing.
Now that we reviewed the exterior, let's move with the interior side of the remodeling projects to do during the fall season.
If adding a fresh coat of paint to space has been on your to-do list for a while, there is no better time to tackle it than in the fall.
Painting is one of the most inexpensive remodeling projects that can have a long-lasting positive impact.
It isn't all that time-consuming, it doesn't require many materials, and it is an easy do it yourself project.
Whether you are painting a feature wall, an entire room, or looking to add a splash of color to your cabinetry.
Good paint choices can completely change the feel of a space.
Painting is a project that requires a perfect temperature, and proper ventilation which might be impossible to achieve during the colder months.
which could make your painting project turn out looking splotchy.
Tile is a fantastic way to bring new life into an old space. With so many colors, shapes, sizes, and materials, the opportunities are limitless.
We have moved far past the days of only being able to choose between mosaic and subway tiles. While tile is often made from ceramic, stone or some other hardy material.
It doesn't usually have a problem with being laid during cold or hot weather. However, tile can't be laid without using grout and grout can be very temperature sensitive.
Settling beds, thin-sets, plasters, waterproofing membranes, and various epoxy materials can be damaged if the weather is too hot or dry.
It's better to complete the installation during moderate temperatures. Hotter temperatures can cause the materials to dry too quickly which could result in cracking or a weaker bond between the tile and the base.
Each product will have a different recommendation. It is important that you read the installation instructions for each product you buy.
You need carefully to consider storing these products.
You wouldn't want to lose all of your new product to a temperature change before you even had a chance to start!
Laying tile during the fall ensures that you can worry less about the weather and focus on what tile you are going to choose.
The kitchen is the heart and soul of most homes. It's where you eat the most important meal of the day, where you sit with your family and friends for dinners, and sometimes where you hang out.
Remodeling this space can be time-consuming, expensive, and labor-intensive.
This makes it the perfect fall remodeling project to do before the weather gets too cold and after the heat has passed.
Additionally, fall is when all of that wonderful food-related holidays such as Thanksgiving and Christmas start to come around.
You want your kitchen to be looking its best before you invite your guests over.
When tackling your fall kitchen remodel, consider adding floral or metal tiles to your kitchen's backsplash.
Fall is the time to stray away from white and experiment with some comfortable and deep colors such as forest green or dark grey for the cabinetry.
A dramatic or innovative looking fixture such as a black range or a copper faucet can really tie the space together.
Ensuring that your home has proper insulation is something we just don't think about very often.
We don't see the insulation on a daily basis, and there is really no way for us to test if it is working properly or not.
However, depending on the age of your home, small imperfections will become major problems if they aren't nipped in the bud.
Older homes could be using inefficient fiberglass insulation that loses its ability to insulate the home over time.
While tearing down walls and installing new insulation seems like an expensive and time-consuming task, It will be worth it.
Not only will you be adding a ton of value to your home, but you will be making it more comfortable during the high and low temperatures.
You will improve your overall energy efficiency so you can save on some of those expensive utility bills.
Tackling insulation is incredibly important to do among your fall remodeling projects, because of the labor involved.
Tearing down walls, installing new panels or spray foam, and then putting the walls back up is incredibly labor intensive.
The last thing you want to be doing is hard labor in the heat.
And you don't want to have to spend a few cold days in the house without being able to close the windows.
We hope this article will give you some inspiration on your future fall remodeling projects.
Whether you are looking to improve the appearance of your interior living spaces, or simply ensure your house is sealed up and ready for the elements.
Fall is the best time to do it.
The options are endless, leaving a lot of the decision up to your wants, budget, and creativity.
Your home should always be a comfortable space.
Small holes in the roof or old insulation can really make it a nightmare.
At the very least, take a look over some of these suggestions and make sure your home is ready for the upcoming seasons.
You experienced any remodeling projects mentioned in this article, let's us know about it.

Notable People from Edinburg, Texas
This Texas town, just north of the border we share with Mexico, has got some history. It's the county seat of Hidalgo County, and can boast about being home to some notable people. Let's take a look at a few of them.
Alfredo Cantu "Freddy" Gonzalez
Freddy Gonzalez was born in Edinburg in 1946. He was not a big man in stature. He played football in high school, despite the fact that he only weighed 135 lbs. He enlisted in the Marines, and completed his training at Camp Pendleton in California.
He served in Viet Nam for one year, and returned to rifleman duty at Camp Lejeune in North Carolina. His dedication paid off and he became an instructor at Camp Lejeune. When news reached him that an entire platoon had been killed in Viet Nam, he volunteered to return.
His courage and valor found real results on the battlefield. He was killed in action in 1968. His body was laid to rest at the Hillcrest Memorial cemetery in Edinburg. He was awarded the Medal of Honor posthumously in 1969 at a ceremony at the White House.
Robert Guerra
Robert "Bobby" Guerra was born into a family of South Texas ranchers in 1953. He's had several successful careers. He graduated from college in 1977 with a double major in chemistry and biology.
He worked in television as a news anchor until he returned to law school. He graduated law school in 1985.
He became involved in politics in 2000, serving as chair of the Hidalgo County Democrat Party. He is currently serving as a State Representative of House District 41, which covers the Edinburg area. His philanthropic interests, and his desire to help the people that he serves, make him a notable person from Edinburg.
Bobby Pulido
Jose Roberto Pulido Jr. comes from Edinburg. He was born in 1971. Most people would credit him from making traditional Tejano music into popularity with younger fans, including teens. "Bobby" was criticized by some of the old timers, as his teen idol status grew. They claimed his popularity was due to his father Robert Pulido, who was a famous Tejano musician himself.
As Bobby started stacking up the successes, and the awards, it was hard to say it was from anything other than his own efforts. As Tejano popularity dropped again, he took a hiatus from 2000 – 2009. In 2010, he starting his acting career and turned once again to music.
Pedro Villarreal
In 1987, Pedro Villarreal was born in Edinburg. He excelled in baseball in high school and college, and was drafted by the Cincinnati Reds in 2008. He made his major league debut with them in 2012. He became a free agent in 2016.
The right-handed pitcher has furthered his baseball career and now pitches for the Toros de Tijuana, since he signed with them in May 2017.
Edinburg Pride
These notable people, from different walks of life, have made Edinburg proud. Their contributions to the fabric of society, and life in South Texas, have not gone unnoticed.
