Nancy L. Griffin, Robert W. Schumm; Comparison of the Effectiveness of Two Types of Teaching Aids in an Occupational Therapy Research Class. Am J Occup Ther 1981;35(1):36-39. doi: 10.5014/ajot.35.1.36.
Students who have mastered statistical calculation problems often experience difficulty in choosing an appropriate procedure to apply to a given research problem. To assist them in this process, two teaching aids were assigned at random to a group of 29 beginning research students. Their performance in selecting appropriate statistical procedures for analyzing data indicated that, while both aids were helpful, the algorithm format was more effective than the prose form.

Hola VPN Founder: Should New Free VPNs Be Avoided?
One of the most popular proxies in the world – behind Hola VPN – just launched a new service called BrightVPN.
Bright Data's BrightVPN is being touted as a new 'industry disruptor.' It will allegedly offer all of the features available on a subscription-based traditional VPN, while staying 100 percent free for all users. But with Hola's historically sketchy performance, should this new creation be avoided?
What is Hola VPN? 🤔
Let's get up to speed. Hola VPN has been around for a long while now, available as browser extensions to let users un-geoblock many websites and services regardless of country and without data restrictions.
Hola claims to get around the need for data restrictions because it innovated peer-to-peer networking that is designed to create proxies to bypass ISP censors. While a promising technological model, P2P networks have serious security gaps.
Hola's history of privacy 🛡
The rabbit hole: HolaVPN has been wickedly good at getting glowing write-ups from sources like Insider and CNN. But their PR campaign belies a technological and business model that goes against their terms of services and customer expectations.
VPNs are usually networks of servers physically located in different parts of the world. Sometimes these physical servers are tweaked to appear, when online, as though they are in a different part of the world.
But you're connecting to an actual server when you log into the internet, which acts as a tunnel that masks your traffic and location origin.
HolaVPN does the same thing, but rather than a network of servers, it turns each computer – connected onto it – into nodes. This is known as peer-to-peer networking. And it means the company does not need to maintain servers – each computer is turned into a mini server.
Risks of peer-to-peer VPN networks ➡
First a quick rundown on how P2P networking works. Let's say for instance, you're based in the UK and connected to a network with a Canadian who wants to stream BBC iPlayer.
Rather than the Canadian needing access to a private or dedicated server in the UK, HolaVPN siphons off a portion of your computing power to the Canadian. A small fraction of your device's resources will be diverted so that the user can tunnel through your user device.
Adios, Hola
Website Adios, Hola was formed by a group of security experts, who detected numerous serious vulnerabilities in the networking system, which were not just small oversights.
P2P networking saves Hola from needing to maintain a dedicated physical server. But, by routing data between user devices, the company exposes data to non-privileged users using the network to tunnel. Individual users can be tracked from site-to-site, viewing sensitive information – everything from unique session keys to installation directories, and other PII data packets.
To make things worse, one major security gap lets any user launch executables on other devices, meaning that a cyberattacker could install more malware onto your device without you realising.
By connecting to our known peers, hackers can use this communication to radically alter permissions – from no privilege to system-admin level. Some users were hit with the hardest to detect and remove malware, like rootkits, which were installed on their devices through the P2P connection.
Monetizing your IP address
So, the new BrightVPN offering works in the same way that we've seen before… Founded by Ofer Vilenski, who was also the founder for Hola VPN – Ofer also founded company Luminati, which is now called Bright Data.
It might be interesting to some to learn how Bright Data grew to fame:
Bright Data grew out of secretly selling slave IPs
Bright Data currently has over 10,000 customers, with a few among them being Fortune 500 companies. The company, formerly known as Luminati Networks claims its mission is to boost internet transparency by letting users reach any website and public web data – wherever they reside. Without regional restrictions and other firewalls.
Until BrightVPN, the company didn't actually go about making VPNs. It instead sold networks made up of slave computers, taking further the idea behind Hola P2P VPN.
From tablets to smartphones and computers, a range of devices can be used. Some of your idle power available during the day can be harnessed, to give latent resource supplies to businesses. There are a lot of legitimate use cases for this business model. But the darker truth behind Bright Data is it was able to amass its database of IP addresses by secretly collecting it through Hola.
Since 2016, it's been operating independently of Hola. But the initial free browser extension was able to amass a whopping 2 million mobile IP addresses, 35 million residential IP addresses, and what amounts to 1/10 of the USA population – through its free Hola VPN.
In short, the history behind BrightVPN is it was able to grow by secretly monetising user IPs.
New BrightVPN service – is it any good?
Issues aside, BrightVPN is a totally free offering. It will need no technical skills to operate.
And the full VPN software can supposedly be set up, from download to being ready for connections, in only 40 seconds – according to Bright Data's sales promotionals.
Visit BrightVPN
The software gives users options to view settings, to decide whether their IP address is given or refused when requested by the sites they are accessing. The VPN service is actually a subset of a bigger crowdsourcing project – with features that are allegedly a rival to the most expensive premium VPNs on the market.
All of this will remain free, without the hazards associated with free VPNs, according to BrightVPN. The company claims their client is secure enough to be leak free, so that you can stay hidden online and withhold your IP address away from forcible tracking by commercial parties.
What happens to the original HolaVPN? ➡
Bright Data, formerly known as Luminati, Has claimed independent operations from Hola since 2016. But with the historic ties, the company has made a statement that the free HolaVPN service, which currently has a user-base of millions, will continue operating for free, with a premium option.
"HolaVPN's mission also remains the same, to provide web transparency to all," BrightData said in a recent interview.
"BrightVPN is our newest VPN-based product that is configured to maximize users' privacy. Both products serve different needs in what is an increasingly demanding market for these services."
Risks of slave networks
Bright Data's business model, of capturing and selling IP addresses of slave computers, that make up its P2P network, is closely similar to how botnets work on the dark web by cybercriminals:
Botnets are also called "robot networks." This simply means a machine network that has bots preinstalled. Whoever is in control of the bots can freely manipulate the device. When you install Hola VPN, or one of its subsidiaries, you are also opting to have a bot installed on your device.
Both HolaVPN and BrightVPN admit to using botnets. But keep in mind that these can be altered to generate other revenue, whether it's through crypto mining, ad manipulations, or DDoS attacks.
One of the more successful botnet networks was known as ZeroAccess. Studied by Norton Symantec, the project was found to have amassed 1.9 million IP addresses using a P2P network. Money was generated by two means: bitcoin mining and ad-click fraud.
This amounted to a staggering tens of millions generated by click fraud – and $2000 a day or $100,000 a year from bitcoin mining.
Slave computers were used to fraudulently click on advertisements, to give the impression of ads to be more popular than actuality. From this alone, ZeroAccess generated nearly 500TB of traffic daily, costing each user in the P2P network about $110 of electricity a day, or $204 million a year.
ZeroAccess was able to do that with only a network of 1.9 million IP addresses. Whereas Bright Data currently sits on around 40 million IP addresses.
Should I use BrightVPN?
Based on HolaVPN's track record, when considering BrightVPN we would advise strong caution. The P2P model is yet to be proven rocksolid for private tunnelling. In the next few months, tests will unveil more about their security level.
All we have to go by – for the moment – is Bright Data's reputation, which isn't ideal.

The King of Rock and Roll, Elvis Presley, has been gone for over forty years now, but he is certainly not forgotten. We are reminded of the entertainer every time we listen to his music and watch his films.
Those of us who have been lucky enough to live in or venture out to Memphis, Tennessee, may have also had the chance to visit Graceland, where he lived with his family following his success.
Second to only the White House, Graceland is one of the most-visited houses in the United States with over 650,000 annual visitors. In 2006, the famous site was finally declared a National Historic Landmark.
Now owned by Elvis's daughter, Lisa Marie Presley, the estate has long been converted into a museum dedicated to Elvis and his memorabilia.
Some of the world's most famous individuals, including royal brothers Prince William and Prince Harry, have visited Graceland. In May 2016, it welcomed its 20 millionth visitor.
So if you're like me and have never set foot on Graceland, you're probably wondering what the big deal is, and what is on the inside that has people returning.
Well, in addition to getting a glimpse into what Elvis's life was like behind the scenes, fans visiting the late singer's 17, 552-square-foot property also get a chance to learn more about the things Elvis was passionate about, like cars and planes.
The property features 23 rooms, including eight bedrooms and bathrooms, a living room, a music room, dining room, a "jungle" room, a kitchen, a TV and billiard room, a swimming pool, Trophy Building, the Meditation Garden, a stable for horses, and a shooting range.
The living room is home to Elvis's last Christmas gift from his father, Vernon: a painting. There are also photos of the singer and his family, including his parents and daughter.
Elvis's aunt, Delta, used this kitchen until she died in 1993, so it wasn't open to the public until 1995. Delta moved into her nephew's home after the death of her husband.
Family was important to Elvis, so when he transformed Graceland, he invited his parents, Gladys and Vernon, to come live with him. They occupied the bedroom on the main floor of the house.
The unique room was formerly the den, but it was renovated in the mid-60s. As the name indicates, the room was built around a jungle theme and it contains an indoor waterfall made out of stone. A few years before Elvis's death, the room was transformed into a recording studio, and that's where he recorded most of his final two albums.
In addition to the Jungle room, a new south side wing was added to the property during the remodeling in the 60s. The Trophy Building, which also houses a racquetball court mimicking a country club, was one of the new additions. It now holds Presley family memorabilia, including Elvis's most famous outfits, Priscilla's wedding dress, and Lisa Marie Presley's toy chest.
Located in the basement, Elvis's television room included three TV sets. On one of the walls, there's a lightening bolt with the letters "TCB," which stands for "taking care of business," inscribed. This room also holds his record collection.
Located on the second floor, the upstairs wardrobe room is connected to his bedroom and bathroom. The rest of the rooms on this floor, including the bathroom where he was found unconscious, are not open to the public out of respect for Elvis and his family.
The singer's private office is located on the second floor near Lisa Marie Presley's bedroom.
Elvis wanted a place to escape to and think, so he asked for the Meditation Garden to be built. He would spend a lot of time there, and it eventually became his final resting place. He's buried beside his parents and grandmother. There is a small stone that memorializes his twin brother, Jesse Garon, who died at birth.
Elvis's fleet of over 20 cars, including his beloved pink Cadillac, are housed at Graceland's Elvis Presley Automobile Museum, which opened in 1989.
The King was also passionate about planes, so after his passing, his custom, including The Lisa Marie and The Hound Dog II, were displayed as part of a permanent exhibit on the property's grounds.
There are a lot of small details at Graceland that pictures can't do justice, so you'll have to go for a visit some day to uncover them all.
What do you think of Graceland? Let us know!

Organigram net revenues more than double to $25.2 million in first quarter
Toronto Star 14 Jan 2020 at 18:28
Revenues included $16.7 million of sales to the adult-use recreational market and about $9.5 million to medical markets, partly offset by a $1.1 million provision for product returns and price adjustments.
Organigram's loss from continuing operations was $863,000 or less than a cent per share, compared with a loss of $29.5 million or 19.5 cents per share in the prior year. That large loss was largely due to non-cash fair value changes to biological assets and inventories.
"Despite ongoing industry challenges, we are pleased with solid first quarter 2020 results and our return to positive adjusted EBITDA during the quarter," stated chief executive Greg Engel.
He said the first vape pens were shipped as planned in December while premium cannabis-infused chocolates are slated to begin sales later in the quarter.
Sales of powdered products, to be added to a consumer's beverage of choice, are expected in the second quarter.
Organigram said last November that its net revenue in the quarter would be higher than the $16.3 million in the fourth quarter due to increased sales to provinces and higher wholesale revenue.
The company said the Canadian cannabis market is poised for growth with more retail store openings planned in Ontario and Quebec, two provinces that together account for more than 60 per cent of the country's population.
In particular, Ontario is moving to open more retail stores with approvals to be issued in April at an initial rate of about 20 per month.
"This is expected to set the stage for further growth for Organigram and the industry," the company stated in a news release.
Quebec also plan to double the number of stores and Alberta's network of 375 stores will continue to grow to meet consumer demand.
Legalization of edible and derivative products is also expected to significantly expand the legal market although Newfoundland & Labrador, Quebec and Alberta have announced delays or restrictions on the launch of vaporizable products.

Greg Byrne, 'Our Goal Is To Play This Fall'
Joe Gaither
Greg Byrne Zoom Call Snip
Alabama Athletic Director, Greg Byrne met with the media today on a Zoom call to offer an update on the Alabama football season and where the program stands as the fall semester is about to get underway.
Byrne stated that the Big 10 and Pac-12 made the best decision they could with the information they had. He added that each area of the country is unique and he had to respect their decision to cancel the fall season.
Byrne highlighted that the university testing every student as they return to school will help to create a safer environment. Currently the university school system has processed 30,000 tests with another 30,000 tests waiting to be processed.
One of the reasons the SEC opted to move the start date of the season to September 26 was in order to see what the impact of the students returning to campus has on the communities.
Alabama still does not know the dates of each matchup this season but Byrne expressed that he expects to find out within the next week the exact order and dates that each game will be held.
When asking about the financial ramifications of having a season or not, Bryne talked about the challenges that are ahead of the program and discussed seating at Bryant-Denny Stadium.
"If we are fortunate enough to move forward and play this year. Whether we play or we don't play, there are going to be significant financial challenges for us as a department and departments throughout the country," said Byrne.
"Once we get our final schedule and we know the dates for all of our games, then we're going to unveil our ticketing plan. But I can tell you it's going to be significantly reduced. Emphasized on the significantly," said Byrne.
Byrne said that an independent group is in charge of Alabama's contact tracing and that allows them to monitor positive tests and determine who needs to go into quarantine should a positive test arise.
Byrne said the only way to get to a no-risk situation is to isolate everyone. Byrne said by aggressive testing, contact tracing, social distancing and mask wearing the program will have an opportunity to play.
Byrne highlighted the "Wear Your Mask" sign that is posted all throughout the athletic facilities.
Byrne said when a student athlete comes into the program they perform baseline cardiovascular testing for medical records, this also allows the medical team to potentially identify any particular issue that may have not been found previously in the athletes life.
"When we have any issue with viruses, and obviously COVID is a very significant virus and we take it very seriously, we're able to look and see, are there any cardio issues that come along with that and monitor that. I can tell you right now we have not had a case of myocarditis," said Byrne.
Byrne acknowledged the bumps in the road that baseball has had in its first few weeks but said that MLB has learned and gotten better from those issues. He expects learning and growth about the necessary precautions to happen in every industry, including college football.
Byrne admitted that he and Coach Saban have talked about how a national champion might be chosen this year but the current times are so fluid that he did not have a hard stance on the matter.
When asked about the possibility of spring football, Byrne responded, "there's been some discussion, not a ton....our goal is to play this fall."

Maldives holidays
Palm-fringed paradise: honeymoons in the Maldives
Maldives menu
By Maldives specialist Vicki
The Maldives: this is where you'll find the white sands of honeymoon brochures. The water is aquarium-clear, the beaches as pristine as a sand box and the hotels as comfortable as you could hope for. Days pass by here in a haze of fine dining, spa treatments, snorkelling and flaming sunsets.
Whether you're after just-the-two-of-us seclusion or somewhere a little more lively, I've picked a range of islands that can give honeymooners something special. I suggest a week on your chosen island and, if you're looking for a longer honeymoon, I've also included ideas for extending your trip.
Baros: for romance
Beach villa, Baros
Each year, Baros wins multiple awards for being one of the most romantic destinations in the world. Although, this doesn't necessarily mean that this coral-island hotel is full of honeymooners: Baros has its own following. You often meet fellow guests who are on their second or third visit; it's just that good (I have clocked up two stays so far).
The atmosphere at Baros isn't overly schmaltzy — I think its accolades and devotees stem from the fact that it has everything just so. As one of the longest-running resorts in the Maldives, it's had time to perfect the experience. That includes the staff, many of whom have, tellingly, been with the hotel from the beginning.
Set on one of the smaller islands, Baros has 45 beach and 30 overwater villas. The overwater villas may look tempting, but I opt for the beach villas for the added benefit of your own foliage-dappled garden that leads straight onto the beach.
The beach itself is a gleaming circle of white, which slowly slopes down into the temperate Indian Ocean. It's here where, for me, Baros really shines. Underwater, just a few strokes from the shore, you reach the house reef. Bulbous brain coral, table coral and staghorn corals decorate the seabed while turtles glide past. An old speedboat has been sunk to support coral growth and, underneath it, you'll often spy sleeping nurse sharks.
Honeymoon experiences on Baros
Piano deck, Baros
Considering most people on Baros celebrate something during their stay, the Guest Experiences Team have a lot of experience curating special moments.
You could start your day with a sunrise breakfast on the piano deck (so-called for its shape — no instruments in sight). This tiny overwater platform is a five-minute speedboat ride off the coast. After a banquet of fresh fruits, pastries and pancakes has been delivered, you're left to dine surrounded by nothing but water.
Your lunchtime could be spent marooned on a sandbank, 20 minutes away by speedboat, with a picnic basket and an ice bucket cradling chilled champagne. Book the experience for dinner and your dishes will be cooked on a barbecue (transported to the island just for you) by your table as you dine by oil lamp. Extinguish the lights, and you can lie back on the sand under a gaping expanse of stars.
The Lighthouse Restaurant, Baros's flagship, is perched on a jetty, its white roof acting like a beacon long before the rest of the island comes into view. You can dine at the water's edge on the open-air deck (book a table in advance) — the lobster bisque is flambéed on a little trolley right by your table.
Velassaru: for active couples
If your usual travel habits include busy cities and complex itineraries, I suggest Velassaru for its extensive schedule of activities and events. As well as the usual complement of snorkelling and diving trips, there are a range of experiences to occupy your time, including big game fishing, marine biology tours, underwater photography lessons and a Malé city tour.
Villas, Velassaru
The bungalows and villas are understatedly modern, with clean lines and plenty of glass to create a spacious feel. In my opinion, this is one of the best-value destinations if you want to stay over water. You can slip straight into the ocean from your private deck, and or view the turquoise water from your lagoon-view bathtub.
Each evening, a saxophonist or local band plays acoustic sets in the beachfront bar, and there are regular cinema nights under the stars. Every full moon is DJ night (worlds apart from Thai full-moon parties) on the beach, where you can dance the night away, a beautifully crafted cocktail in hand.
If you're seeking something more peaceful, head to the overwater Chill Bar at dusk. Pairs of wicker chairs are dotted along the deck, angled toward the setting sun. Order a cocktail and some tapas — I recommend the mango and crab salad — and you can raise a glass to the pinkish-purple sky.
Dining on Velassaru
All-inclusive packages on the Maldives can limit you to the resort's main restaurant, unless you're happy to pay a supplement for speciality restaurants. But, on Velassaru, all-inclusive means just that (I recommend the lobai, the island's gin-based trademark cocktail). The five restaurants, including an overwater teppanyaki outlet, should keep you busy.
The island's signature restaurant, Sand, has two private overwater pavilions, accessed by their own mini jetty, which you can pre-book. Ask about the catch of the day: it's served Maldivian-style with a salted crust and a tangy Creole sauce.
Cocoa Island by COMO: for the ultimate escape
Cocoa Island by COMO
If you have dreams of absolute just-us seclusion, try Cocoa Island. This slither of white sand is surrounded by what looks like a fleet of wooden fishing boats but which turn out to be overwater villas and suites shaped like the dhoni boats used by local fishermen.
The rooms come with so much living space that you have little reason to head to land — you can enjoy a massage that comes to you before dinner is served in your lounge or terrace. From each balcony deck, stairs lead straight down into the water, and you're within a few strokes of the marine-rich house reef.
During my last stay, the island was at full capacity but I saw few fellow guests as I walked along the beach. If you do leave the privacy of your villa, there's a beachside bar and Ufaa, an open-air restaurant serving a fusion of Indian and Mediterranean fare along with the COMO Shambhala menu, which worthily serves food raw, steamed or grilled.
Well-being on Cocoa Island
If you're embarking on your honeymoon straight after the wedding (or just want to recover from the flight), you can make use of Cocoa Island's extensive well-being lineup. COMO Shambhala, the resort's worldwide spa brand, offers a series of 'wellness paths' that combine massages, facials, yoga and luxurious baths to rejuvenate, de-stress and relax you.
Conrad Maldives Rangali Island: as good as it gets
A tiny, peaceful islet escape? Or a larger island lit up with restaurants and cocktail bars? At Conrad Maldives Rangali Island there's no compromise: the resort consists of two islands joined by an overwater walkway (or you can sail between them on the hotel's dhoni).
Underwater dining, Conrad Maldives Rangali Island
The westerly island is a slip of sand framed by stilted water villas, where you can lie languid aside the infinity pool in the adults-only quiet area — although George, the resident heron, might pay a visit. There's an overwater spa where you can watch the marine life through a glass floor while you're massaged, as well as a yoga pavilion where private classes can be arranged.
The larger easterly island has almost every amenity you could wish for, from tennis courts and a dive school to the Whale Shark Research Centre, which runs trips to see the world's largest fish in action. The house reef is a short paddle from the coast, and regular snorkelling trips will carry you to more extensive coral villages farther out to sea.
Couple's activities on Conrad Maldives Rangali Island
As the island's general manager explained to me, he wants guests to, 'have the luxury of being themselves,' during their stay. If you want to take your shoes off on arrival, and never put them on again until you leave: that's fine. If you'd like to enjoy a vanilla passion cocktail (their forte) dressed to the nines, that's fine, too. There's a refined but relaxed feel to the island, and whether you're after rose petals and champagne, or anything but, the staff are well equipped to help.
With 11 restaurants and bars, there are plenty of opportunities to plan a special meal, including a cheese tasting (they keep more than 100 varieties) in The Cheese & Wine Bar or a private candlelit barbecue on the beach. The pièce de résistance is Ithaa Undersea Restaurant. While dining on an indulgent menu — expect caviar and truffles — you have 180-degree views of the surrounding ocean.
The list of things to do is so long the hotel has made a brochure out of it, detailing coconut-tree climbing, dolphin spotting, sunset fishing and couple's massage lessons. I spent an afternoon in a local village on a nearby island, taking tea alongside the island chief while a gaggle of excited children looked on.
Extending your honeymoon
Sigiriya Rock Fortress
Cinnamon Lodge, Sri Lanka
Just an hour and a half's flight across the ocean from the Maldives is Sri Lanka. It may be beach-fringed, but inland you'll find national parks, elaborately painted cave temples and abandoned ancient cities.
Named after its cache of notable sights, the Cultural Triangle inhabits the north-central part of the island, a three-hour drive from Colombo Airport. Base yourselves at Cinnamon Lodge, within the Cultural Triangle, and you can spend a few days exploring with a chauffeur-guide — I suggest at least four nights to avoid rushing around.
The once-mighty metropolis of Anuradhapura is a complex of dagobas, monasteries and palaces — if you're eager to cover a large part of the city it's worth hiring bicycles for your tour. The Dambulla Caves hide a series of intricately decorated temples, and the city of Polonnaruwa is a UNESCO World Heritage Site containing some of the country's best-preserved temple carvings. But, if you only visit one site, I recommend Sigiriya Rock Fortress, a monastery-turned-royal-palace perched impossibly on top of a huge hunk of rock that protrudes from the plains.
You can break up these sights with a safari in Minneriya National Park. A mixture of dry tropical forest, grassland and wetland, it's home to languor monkeys, macaques, sambar deer and more bird species than even my guide (a keen naturalist) knew the names of. Sloth bears and leopards are around, but you're unlikely to spot them. That's fine, though, because the park's keynote residents, a healthy herd of Asian elephants, are easy to spot.
Market stall, Deira
Below the gleaming skyscrapers of Dubai, you can walk through air-conditioned malls larger than the entire island you have just been staying on.
Base yourselves at the Hilton Dubai Creek and you're near Deira, the more traditional part of the city. You can barter for jewellery in the gold souq or admire the day's catch in the adjoining fish market. The white domes of the Grand Mosque are a short walk away. (The main prayer space is restricted to Muslim worshippers, but anyone can climb the minaret for views across the gilded complex.)
While I don't think there's any need to visit Dubai's Jumeirah Beach (it's not a patch on Maldivian sands), you could head into the rose-gold sand dunes to the south. On an afternoon tour, you can dune bash in a 4x4 before enjoying a barbecued dinner around a campfire under the stars.

Happy New Year, beauties!! This is my first blog post of 2019 and I thought I would kick it off with my theme word of the year, consistency. At the beginning of every year I reflect on my goals from the previous year, my accomplishments, and what I would like to work on to better myself. From there, I create new goals for the current year. I've noticed that each year I start out strong but lack consistency throughout the year. This is something that I want to work on in all areas of my life.
I seriously can't believe that Halloween is already next week. Time really is just flying by. If you're prepping for Halloween and not in the mood for a full on costume this year, this video tutorial is for you. In this video I'm showing you a festive Halloween makeup tutorial.
To know me is to know that my niece, Dasia, is a huge part of my life and has been since the day she was born. I am the youngest in my family so I've never had someone I was responsible for helping to teach morals or life lessons. When she was younger I helped teach her to crawl and walk, along with her ABC's and 123's. Now that she's growing into this amazing little girl with a dynamic personality, I'm finding that the teachings go beyond education.
To know me is to know that I'm all about self-care. I work a 9-5 during the week, I blog and vlog, and I also have a personal styling business. On Saturdays I have my niece, I run errands, and work on my blog and business. I try to keep Sundays just for me and I call it Self-Care Sunday. My self-care Sunday routine can consist of something a little extra like a spa day or it can be me doing little things that make me happy.
food. While I had the best time, I came back home feeling sluggish, heavy, tired, and extremely bloated. I wanted to get back to myself as soon as possible. I looked into a couple of cleanses before deciding on Pressed Juicery's 3-Day Cleanse.
What is it about the beginning of a new year that makes you want to quit bad habits, leave your negative past behind, and move forward focusing on the best version of yourself? Sort of like when you decide that you want to start a new diet but wait until Monday before you actually start. I guess the start of a new year represents a new beginning, a new chapter in the book of life. I firmly believe in setting goals at the start of the year to improve your life, whether they are personal, financial, career, or relationship goals.

TV air wars in VA gov's race? Not so much
by Peter Olsen-Phillips
Nov 4, 2013 10:21 am
Tuesday's Virginia gubernatorial election is ground zero for partisan strategists hoping to gain enough momentum to carry their party through the 2014 midterms and beyond. Outside groups are spending furiously, as a win in the truly 'purple' Commonwealth could serve as a springboard for future electoral victories. Two of the biggest storylines in the Virginia race (aside from the much-publicized scandals) have been the role of women and Hispanic voters. Ads from Planned Parenthood and Democrat Terry McAuliffe's campaign have blasted Republican nominee Ken Cuccinelli (currently the state's attorney general) for his stances on abortion, contraceptives and divorce. Interestingly, less money appears to be devoted to wooing Hispanics, at least when it comes to TV ads.
Ad files collected by Sunlight from the largest Spanish language TV station in the Washington area — the state's largest media market, and the one with the highest percentage of Hispanic viewers — suggest there's been little competition for the state's burgeoning Latino vote. As of the week before the election, there were only three ad buys for the gubernatorial race in WFDC's 2013 political ad file (compared to scores for other area stations). All were in support of McAuliffe — two were purchased directly by his campaign and and one Spanish-language ad by People for The American Way (see an example below), a liberal 'dark money' group supporting the Democrat.
The relative pittance spent to attract the Hispanic vote contrasts sharply with the efforts underway to court other constituencies; the buy at WFDC totalled $105,115 in a race that has drawn millions in advertising from outside groups. Data on advertising expenditures indicate that the majority of this outside spending came from well-financed special interests with narrow policy agendas. The vast majority of these outside dollars are supporting McAuliffe. A review of the race's top outside spenders — compiled by the Virginia Public Access Project — combined with political advertisements gathered by Sunlight's Political Ad Hawk and data from Influence Explorer, sheds a little more light on the strategies of the outside groups jockeying for Virginians' votes. These figures represent the ad money spent at the major news affiliates in the state's four biggest markets. Though not all-inclusive, these numbers provide a reasonable picture of the Virginia ad wars.
Here's a look at some of the top-spending outside groups and links to some of their ads. Estimates on spending come from VPAP, which has been totalling spending in four of Virginia's seven TV markets.
NextGen Climate Action (Virginia Climate Voters): $2,400,585
The NextGen Climate Action Committee — the super PAC behind Virginia Climate Voters — is the brainchild of former hedge fund manager Tom Steyer. After retiring from a lucrative career at Farrallon Capital Management, Steyer turned his attention to political advocacy and quickly became one of the left's highest-spending political activists. His national efforts have mostly revolved around environmental issues and his foray into the Commonwealth race is no different: Virgina Climate Voters' ads have hammered Cuccinelli for his climate change skepticism and his office's investigation of a University of Virginia scientist during his tenure as state Attorney General.
The super PAC has become a formidable player on the national stage thanks in large part to contributions from the group's billionaire founder: Follow the Unlimited Money shows that in the year 2013, Steyer had personally contributed $4.25 million to the committee as of Sept. 12.
Recently, NextGen spent big in the Massachusetts special election for U.S. Senate, pouring hundreds of thousands into the race in support of then-congressman Ed Markey, D-Mass., over primary challenger Stephen Lynch and Republican Gabriel Gomez. Steyer jumped in to the race — in spite of Markey's own protests — over Lynch's support of the Keystone XL pipeline. Markey's won the Senate race.
Independence USA PAC: $1,568,550
Former NYC mayor and billionaire media mogul Michael Bloomberg (pictured left) has become a national pariah for guns rights groups and a hero to those pushing for tighter restrictions on firearms. A Republican turned independent, Bloomberg is channeling his considerable fortune nationally through his Independence USA super PAC and is targeting lawmakers both Democratic and Republican lawmakers who have opposed gun control efforts.
The gun control debate hits home in Virginia, where on April 16, 2007 a shooter killed 32 people at the Virginia Tech campus in Blacksburg. In spite of a history of mental illness, the killer passed multiple background checks to purchase the guns later used in the shooting. The images of perpretators from several of the worst mass shootings in recent years are flashed during an ad buy from Independence USA that attacks Cuccinelli for his unwillingness to close Virginia's "gun show loophole," which may allow individuals to purchase guns without undergoing a background check.
Like NextGen, Independence USA receives the bulk of its funds from its wealthy founder.
Bloomberg's most recent electoral effort — the Colorado recall elections — ultimately failed: Two Democratic legislators who faced recall votes over their support of tightening gun restrictions were booted from office despite hundreds of thousands of dollars in outside spending from the mayor.
National Education Association: $519,054
The public school teachers union — the "nation's largest professional employee organization" according to its website — is a major player in almost every aspect of the political sphere. From K Street, to the regulatory process, to the more than $382 million in campaign contributions it has doled out over the years, the NEA is one of the nation's most powerful voices when it comes to shaping education legislation.
Cuccinelli supports charter schools and vouchers for Virginia students — in opposition to the NEA's stance — and while McAuliffe has not shared his stance on charters he has benefitted from supportive ads for his plans to decrease class sizes and the amount of standardized testing in schools.
Influence Explorer data shows the union gives most of its campaign cash to political action committees, the candidates it supports are overwhelmingly Democratic.
Planned Parenthood Action Fund: $462,215
The polarizing women's health group has been a boon to McAuliffe's gubernatorial hopes, unleashing numerous attack ads against Cuccinelli. Cecile Richards (pictured right), Planned Parenthood's president, wrote in a Huffington Post op-ed that Cuccinelli's socially conservative stance on abortion and contraceptives is to blame for his lagging support among women — calling the Republican slate "the most anti-woman ticket we've ever seen from a major party."
A recent poll from Christopher Newport University shows McAuliffe leading Cuccinelli among women voters by 16 points. Decisive support from the female demographic may be the key to McAuliffe's success — polls show him leading by seven points overall.
On K Street, unsurprisingly, two of Planned Parenthood's most frequent lobbying issues are "Health Issues" and "Family, Abortion & Adoption." While on the campaign trail the group supports numerous high-profile Democrats and has given over $130,000 in hard money contributions to Barack Obama.
Most recently, its super PAC spent more than $75,000 in independent expenditures to help Markey claim the U.S. Senate seat in Massachusetts.
Common Sense Virginia PAC: $387,080
Common Sense Virginia, the only Republican-leaning outside spending group to make the list of top five outside spenders in the gubernatorial race, has targeted Terry McAuliffe over his budget plan, which the group contends will raise taxes on all Virginians.
However, the Wall Street Journal's Washington Wire reports that the conservative group diverted $190,000 in funds it had planned to use in supporting the Cuccinelli ticket in order to help Republican candidates further down the ticket.
(Note: While VPAP included Americans for Prosperity in its list of the largest spenders in outside ads, we did not do so for this report as AFP has not bought any ads in Virginia that advocate for or against Cuccinelli or McAuliffe)

Classic chicken noodle soup. You can use just chicken breasts instead of the whole chicken, but if I do that I usually add a couple of cans of chicken broth for more flavor.
In 5 quart Dutch oven, combine chicken and water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 15 minutes. Skim off any scum that rises to the surface. Add bouillon, 1/2 cup onions, salt, pepper and bay leaf. Simmer, covered, an additional 35 to 45 minutes or until chicken is tender. Remove chicken from broth. Remove chicken from bones and cut into bite size pieces. Skim fat from broth.
Stir in the chicken, celery, carrots and 1/4 cup onion. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 15 minutes or until carrots are crisp-tender. Remove bay leaf. Bring to a boil. Drop noodles into boiling soup. Cook 5 to 10 minutes or until noodles are tender.
Yum. Love chicken noodle soup. Thanks.
I love your Chicken Noodle Soup Delta!

GRAND FORKS, N.D. — University of North Dakota President Robert Kelley says the school likely will not be able to get into the Summit League this year.
Kelley says league Commissioner Tom Douple told him it's too late to fit the Fighting Sioux into the 2011-2012 schedule.
League officials have said they will not consider UND's application until the school's nickname issue is resolved.
Some, including the NCAA, consider the nickname offensive. Whether it will be dropped is not likely to be decided until after the state Supreme Court next month considers a lawsuit filed by some nickname supporters.
Kelley says Douple told him the Summit League is already finishing its schedule, though the commissioner will ask league members in March if it's possible to accept UND's application contingent on the nickname issue being settled.

Die Stadtpfarrkirche St. Pankratius ist eine römisch-katholische Pfarrkirche in Roding. Das Pankratius-Patrozinium in Roding ist das älteste in Deutschland. Der erhaltene Turm des barocken Vorgängers des heutigen modernen Kirchenbaus ist ein Wahrzeichen der Stadt.

Geschichte
Die Urkirche in Roding, bestehend zumindest seit dem 9. Jahrhundert, war St. Gallus geweiht; Roding wurde 844 als Ort einer Königspfalz genannt. Eine Urkunde vom 2. August 896 vermerkt eine Kapelle, in die Kaiser Arnulf die Reliquien des heiligen Pankratius bringen ließ. Arnulf hatte die Reliquien von Papst Formosus als Dankesgeschenk erhalten; er hatte dem Papst 895 aus Bedrängnis geholfen. Roding ist der Ort des ältesten Pankratius-Patroziniums in Deutschland; es ist anzunehmen, dass die Überführung der Reliquien des Heiligen dorthin den Ausgangspunkt der Pankratius-Verehrung in Deutschland bildet.

Nachdem Galluskirche und Pankratiuskapelle blieben beide lange bestehen, bis an ihrer Stelle eine gotische Kirche erbaut wurde – sie hatte zumindest bis 1526 beide Heilige als Patrone. Im Dreißigjährigen Krieg wurde sie 1634 von kaiserlichen Truppen niedergebrannt. An die stelle der gotischen Kirche trat 1649 ein barocker Nachfolger, ab 1660 mit neuerrichtetem Turm. Auch dieser Bau fiel einem Feuer zum Opfer, dem großen Rodinger Marktbrand am 9. September 1755. Der Pösinger Maurermeister Kaspar Hecht und der Zimmermeister Hans Heimerl, ebenfalls aus Pösing, ließen sie in den nachfolgenden Jahren wiedererstehen.

Nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg und der Erhebung Rodings zur Stadt wurde die barocke Kirche 1959 abgebrochen und die alten Reste ihrer gotischen Vorgängerin beseitigt. An ihre Stelle trat der helle und geräumige moderne Bau nach den Plänen von Friedrich Ferdinand Haindl, der noch heute besteht. Auf die Errichtung eines neuen Turms wurde verzichtet, der alte barocke Turm als Campanile erhalten. Am 3. Mai 1964 wurde die neue Kirche von Bischof Rudolf Graber geweiht.

Lage und Gebäude

Die Stadtpfarrkirche St. Pankratius steht im Stadtzentrum von Roding. In unmittelbarer Nähe auf dem Rodinger Kirchplatz stehen die wesentlich älteren Gebäude der Josephikapelle und der Annakapelle.

Der 1959 begonnene Kirchenbau ist ein Werk von Friedrich Ferdinand Haindl. Die Kirche steht auf achteckigem Grundriss und trägt ein ziegelgedecktes Satteldach; unterhalb der Dachkante verläuft ein Fensterband aus dreieckigen Elementen, das das gesamte Gebäude umläuft. Der Bau bietet Sitzplätze für 850 Gläubige.

Im Nordwesten der Kirche blieb der Turm des barocken Vorgängerbaus von Kaspar Hecht und Hans Heimerl als Campanile erhalten. Die Gesimsgliederung an der Fassade entspricht seinen vier Geschossen. An jeder seiner durchgängig vier Seiten und in jedem Geschoss ist er mit zwei Pilastern geschmückt. Der Turm trägt eine Zwiebelhaube, die Spitze bildet eine Laterne.

Ausstattung
Bedeutendstes Kunstwerk ist eine gotische, farbig bemalte, steinerne Marienstatue. Maria trägt Krone und Schleier und ist rot und braun gewandet. Sie ist in lebendiger Haltung und mit natürlichen Gesichtszügen dargestellt. Auf dem rechten Arm trägt sie das Jesuskind, das ein Buch in Händen hält; in der linken Hand trägt sie einen Strauß mit Stechpalmenblättern. Das Bildnis entstand in den Zwanzigerjahren des 14. Jahrhunderts; vermutlich entstammt sein Schöpfer der Regensburger Bildhauerschule. Die Statue wurde 1907 für die Rodinger Kirche erworben; zuvor gehörte sie dem Bierbrauer Johann Zimmermann und stand in der Kapelle der Burg Regenpeilstein.
Der Taufstein, mit halbkugelförmigem, rankenverziertem Becken stammt aus dem 13. Jahrhundert und gehörte bereits zu Beginn zur Ausstattung der Rodinger Kirche.

Das große versilberte Kreuz aus Holz über dem Altar stammt von Anton Rückel.  Jesus ist hier nicht als Leidender, sondern als verklärter, erhöhter Herr dargestellt; seine Arme sind vom Kreuz gelöst, gleichwie um die Gläubigen zu umfangen; seine Füße sind nebeneinander an das Kreuz fixiert. Vom selben Künstler stammt der bronzene Deckel des Taufbeckens; dargestellt ist die Taufe Jesu im Jordan. Ebenfalls Werke von Rückel sind die beiden zur Kirche gehörenden Statuen des Kirchenpatrons, des heiligen Pankratius. Die eine, aus Holz, 1980 aufgestellt, steht im Kircheninneren auf einem Steinsockel, der die Kaiser Arnulf geschenkten Reliquien des Heiligen birgt. Die andere Statue, aus Bronze, seht auf dem südlichen Kirchplatz auf einer Steinsäule.

Tabernakel und Ambo, beide aufgestellt 1979, hat der Maler und Bildhauer Curt Porzky aus Altötting geschaffen. Motiv der Metallverzierungen ist der brennende Dornbusch aus dem Zweiten Buch Mose des Alten Testaments beziehungsweise eine Auswahl von Szenen aus der Offenbarung des Johannes aus dem Neuen Testament. Der Kreuzweg, seit 1977 in der Kirche stammt ebenfalls von Curt Porzky. Er ist als Hinterglasmalerei in einfache, klaren Formen ausgeführt.

Newhouse panel to examine 'unique voice' of women's websites
Monday, October 17, 2011, By Wendy S. Loughlin
The Department of Magazine in Syracuse University's S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications will host "The Digital Mystique: Women's Editorial Online" Monday, Nov. 7, at 7 p.m. in Joyce Hergenhan Auditorium in Newhouse 3. Follow on Twitter at #womensweb.
The panel discussion will explore the unique voice of women's websites and why the content and tone of many women's websites is so different than their print forebearers.
"The open spirit of the web made room for women seeking an alternative to traditional glossies," says Aileen Gallagher, assistant professor of multiplatform journalism in the Newhouse School. "Our panel will explore that evolution with some of the Internet's strongest voices."
Gallagher will moderate. Panelists include Anna Holmes, founder of Jezebel; Jessica Coen, editor of Jezebel; Edith Zimmerman, founder/editor of The Hairpin; and Lori Adelman, writer for Feministing and The Grio.
For more information, contact Gallagher at (315) 443-2153 or aegallag@syr.edu.

The Bronx River, approximately 24 miles (39 km) long,[4] flows through southeast New York in the United States and drains an area of 38.4 square miles (99 km2).[4] It is named after colonial settler Jonas Bronck. The Bronx River is the only fresh water river in New York City.[5]
It originally rose in what is now the Kensico Reservoir, in Westchester County north of New York City. With the construction of the Kensico Dam in 1885, however, the river was cut off from its natural headwaters and today a small tributary stream serves as its source. The Bronx River flows south past White Plains, then south-southwest through the northern suburbs in New York, passing through Edgemont, Tuckahoe, Eastchester, and Bronxville. It forms the border between the large cities of Yonkers and Mount Vernon, and flows into the northern end of The Bronx, where it divides East Bronx from West Bronx, southward through Bronx Park, New York Botanical Garden, and the Bronx Zoo and continues through neighborhoods of the South Bronx. It empties into the East River, a tidal strait connected to Long Island Sound, between the Soundview and Hunts Point neighborhoods.
In the 17th century, the river—called by the natives "Aquehung"—served as a boundary between loosely associated bands under sachems of the informal confederacy of the Wecquaesgeek, Europeanized as the Wappinger; the east bank of the river was the boundary for the Siwanoy, clammers and fishermen. The same line would be retained when manors were granted to the Dutch and the English.[6] The Algonkian significance of the name is variously reported;[7] the acca- element, as represented in the Long Island place-name Accabonac, was deformed into the more familiar, suitably watery European morpheme aque-.
The tract purchased by Jonas Bronck in 1639 lay between the Harlem River and the river that came to be called "Bronck's river".[8]
Recreational amenities and wildlife
Entering the Botanical Garden
Lorillard Snuff Mill
During the 19th and 20th centuries, the river became a natural sewer into which industrial waste was poured every day. An early mill on the industrialized river was the Lorillard Snuff Mill, preserved in the grounds of the New York Botanical Garden. With the decline of manufacturing in the area, the river continued to receive water pollution from the communities that lined its banks. In December 1948, flow of the Bronx River was changed to eliminate a curve in its course in Bronxville, to create land in the old riverbed on which to construct an addition to Lawrence Hospital. During the excavations a large sand bar was uncovered where sand had accumulated at the bend over hundreds of years and made a sandy beach.[6]
In the 21st century, environmental groups including the Bronx River Alliance proposed to return the river to its original state as a clean waterway.[9] The river became a favorite project of U.S. Representative José Serrano, who secured US$14.6 million in federal funding to support the rehabilitation of the waterway, into which some Westchester towns continued to discharge raw sewage intermittently, as sanitary sewer overflows, as late as 2006. Under a November 28, 2006 agreement, the municipalities of Scarsdale, White Plains, Mount Vernon and Greenburgh agreed to stop dumping sewage in the Bronx River by May 1, 2007.[10]
Urban runoff pollution continues to be a serious problem for the river. The Bronx River Watershed Coalition, a partnership of local and state agencies, citizen groups and non-profit organizations, have developed watershed management plans to reduce stormwater pollution and improve water quality.[11]

Local alewife, taken from a coastal tributary in nearby Connecticut, were released in the river in March 2006.[12] The alewife were expected to spawn in the river's headwaters. Their offspring would spend the summer in the river, migrate out to sea in the fall, and in three to five years return, like all anadromous fishes, to their spawning grounds. Stocking was intended to be repeated annually for the following five years, to build up the new resident population. The fishes, among a group called "river herring," feed low on the food-chain and help reduce eutrophication. And in fact, several adult alewife were found below the first dam on the river on April 7, 2009. As an analysis revealed they were 3 years old, the assumption of scientists is that these were in fact descendants of the alewife released 3 years before in March 2006.[13] The next step will be to erect fish ladders over the 3 dams lowest on the river, allowing the alewife access to a portion of the river with more suitable spawning habitat.[14]
In February 2007 biologists with the Wildlife Conservation Society, which operates the Zoo, spotted a beaver (Castor canadensis) in the river. "There has not been a sighting of a beaver lodge or a beaver in New York City for over 200 years. It sounds fantastic, but one of the messages that comes out of this is if you give wildlife a chance it will come back," said John Calvelli, a spokesman for the Society.[15][16][17] The beaver is named Jose Serrano, after the Congressman, and was sighted below the East Tremont bridge at Drew Gardens as recently as June, 2009.[18] Beaver had not lived in New York City since the early 19th century when trappers extirpated them completely from the state.[19] In the summer of 2010 a second beaver joined Jose, doubling the beaver population in New York City.[20] Beaver were once important to the city's economy and pair of beaver appear on the city's official seal and flag.
The river in winter
Along much of its length in Westchester County and the northern Bronx the river is paralleled by the Bronx River Parkway and its associated bicycle path from Bronxville to the Kensico Dam plaza. A project, the Bronx River Greenway, proposes a unified management plan for the narrow ribbon of riverside green spaces in the 8 miles (13 km) stretch of river that passes through Westchester County and the Bronx, as part of the East Coast Greenway. It includes Concrete Plant Park on the right bank, below Westchester Avenue[21] and Starlight Park above there. Construction on the Bronx River Greenway started in October 2016.[22]
In the southern Bronx, the river has become a popular destination for urban canoeing in New York City. It also bisects Bronx Park and the Bronx Zoo. A monorail built in the late 20th century takes Zoo customers over the river to an exhibit of Asian animals on the left bank, with a narration presenting the river as the Irrawaddy.[23]

ASCO commended the Cancer Moonshot Initiative Blue Ribbon Panel for its ambitious recommendations to accelerate progress against cancer.
ASCO submitted key recommendations to the panel for the implementation of the Cancer Moonshot Initiative, focused on harnessing cutting-edge information technology and other innovations to hasten the trajectory of progress in cancer research. ASCO's recommendations included enhanced access to clinical outcomes databases (like the Society's CancerLinQ™) to help learn from all cancer patients; a sustained, well-funded national cancer research system; and clinical cancer research infrastructure. ASCO is pleased that these recommendations were incorporated into the final report.
The panel, which includes experts from all facets of cancer care, has been deliberate and open in seeking feedback from the cancer community on how best to implement the Cancer Moonshot Initiative. ASCO hosted a "listening session" for the NCI at its 2016 Annual Meeting where the panel received feedback and ideas directly from ASCO meeting attendees. Vice President Biden also addressed ASCO's Annual Meeting attendees in person. To view Vice President Biden's address to the clinical oncology community, go to www.asco.org/moonshot.
On September 6, 2016, ASCO also sent a letter to Vice President Biden recommending several immediate and practical actions that he could take during the remainder of his term in the White House—steps that could make a lasting impact in the effort to discover new cancer treatments. Read the full letter to Vice President Biden.
