Terry "Starbucker" St. Marie is a native Midwesterner now living in Portland, Oregon. He's been in the business world for over 32 years in various leadership positions, most recently as the SVP of Operations for Bresnan Communications, a cable TV operator in the Rocky Mountain west.
Terry's career's biggest passion has been the practice of what he calls More Human Leadership. It's a philosophy that is unabashedly personal – all about positivity, purpose, empathy & compassion, humility, and love. Terry's site centers on what it means to be a More Human leader, and the fantastic benefit that can spring from it, the Success Trifecta – a successful company, a happy team, and a fulfilled YOU. (To find out more, see Terry's "What is More Human Leadership" page).
Terry also talks about More Human leadership with some great authors and thought leaders on his More Human Podcast, available on iTunes.
Terry started his career way back in 1982 as a CPA for a public accounting firm, and got my first taste of executive life in 1987, getting thrown into the deep end of the management pool at the age of 27. Terry learned so much from that experience, and he summarized those lessons in his e-book "Leadership From a Glass Half-Full: The 5 Lessons You Need to Learn Before You Jump Into the Pool" (click here to download).
Since then, Terry spent the better part of 23 years in the cable TV business, which has been yet another wonderful training ground, since it is so focused on people – the people in the business who serve the customers, and the customers themselves. It was by serving those people Terry discovered that to really hit the success trifecta, HE HAD to go beyond the prototype of a typical "boss" and become a More Human Leader.


How to Assess If the Malpractice Lawyer in Nashville Will Meet Your Needs | Know the Trend, Fit to the Trend!
Before the healthcare provider you are accusing is prosecuted in court, the lawyer you hire should confirm and prove three basic malpractice elements. First, the lawyer must establish and prove that the medical practices followed by the medical professional were below the standard. In fact, the lawyer could also establish and prove that none of the correct medical practices was followed. Secondly, the lawyer must prove a wrongdoing or negligence that left the patient injured, paralyzed or dead. Finally, the medical malpractice lawyer must prove the damages the medical professional caused.
Normally, most medical cases that occur due to negligence or malpractices of the health workers in the medical facility take about one to three years. They are not the type of cases you file today and after a few weeks it is over. The processes involved in the confirmation and prove of the damages sustained engage other investigators and medical procedures that usually take long. The right of the defendant to appeal after your case has obtained a favorable verdict to proceed makes the case complex and time-consuming. However, the spinal cord injury lawyers Nashville has today try their best to eventually win good compensation.
It's no doubt you need much money to prosecute a medical malpractice case. You will need to pay all the experts involved, take depositions and obtain the right medical records. All this involves money at any level. Using modern technology to demonstrate serious injuries that your loved one sustained and obtaining exhibits can leave your bank account with money only enough for a matchbox packet. However, the spinal cord injury attorneys Nashville offers can look for ways to reduce the cost of case development and avoid other unnecessary costs.
Where possible, it is important to look for lawyers with better payment terms. It's advisable to hire traumatic brain injury attorneys Nashville has to offer because they work on the contingent fee agreement. In fact, most of these lawyers pay your expenses and wait until you are compensated to repay them. This helps clients who lack financial stability to have professional representation from qualified and reputable malpractice lawyers.
Ask the lawyer how long they have been in the practice. You should also ask them if they only handle malpractice cases or if they handle other cases at times. It would also be important to find out how many of their clients received full compensation and how many didn't. Seek to know why the compensation of some clients failed despite representation.

Plug-in electric car sales in Canada, July 2016: the Model X factor
Matthew Klippenstein August 5, 2016 Comment Now!
The second-generation Chevy Volt set a single-month Canadian plug-in electric vehicle sales record in July with 385 sales, the equivalent of about 3500 sales in the American market.
That's more than August 2013, the Volt's best-ever month in the United States, when dealerships moved 3,351 units.
With this achievement, the Volt not only surpassed its 320 sales in June, but outpaced the previous single-month record of 325 Tesla Model Ses sold in March.

Canada's five best single-vehicle single-month plug-in electric vehicle sales totals have now come in the past five months.
That's helped the country's plug-in market share to rise from 0.37 percent last year to 0.45 percent during the first half of 2016.
Modest as the difference may seem, it still represents an increase of 20 percent year over year.
Plug-in electric car sales in Canada, July 2016
Nissan sold 152 Leafs in July, up from 123 in June and matching its best-ever month in March, while Mitsubishi sold 7 i-MiEVs.
As usual, Ford refuses to provide C-Max Energi and Ford Fusion Energi sales. As conveyed by a Ford representative:
"I have looked into this and unfortunately we are not inclined to provide this level of detail for Canada. The numbers are very small, as you might imagine."

Registration roundup for June
Vehicle registration data confirmed that June was the first month in which Canadian plug-in electric vehicle sales exceeded 1,000. The final numbers came in slightly over 1,100.
In large part, the Tesla Model S did the heavy lifting, with 167 sales—along with the very first deliveries of the new-to-Canada Model X crossover utility vehicle, with 156 units.
While the Model X set a new record for the strongest first-month debut for an electric vehicle in Canada, it wasn't by much: 143 Chevy Volts were sold in that car's first month of availability, back in September 2011.
2017 Volvo XC90 T8 Twin Engine with Polestar Performance Optimization
Tesla fans will note that the combined 323 Model S and Model X sales in June were slightly higher than the Volt's 320 units. Adding the month's nine Spark EV sales, however, puts Chevrolet back on top at 329 units.
The 167 Model S sales in June were Tesla's lowest in a quarter-ending month since December 2014, perhaps reflecting the availability of the new Model X.
The Volvo XC90 T8 plug-in hybrid sold 55 units in July, down slightly from 58 in June. It continues to see significant sales in Alberta, the prairie province with oil sands and without plug-in electric vehicle incentives.
CHECK OUT: How much do electric cars really pollute, even without tailpipes?
BMW sold 30 X5 plug-in hybrids, alongside 28 i3 and 11 i8 sales. Rival Audi sold 41 A3 e-Trons, while Porsche sold 21 Cayenne S E-Hybrids and 3 more Panamera S E-Hybrids.
Kia is rumored to be providing incentives to sales staff who sell the Soul EV in Canada's three "rebate provinces" of British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec.
Whether that's the case or not, it sold an impressive 67 units of its all-electric tall wagon in June.
Kia Soul EV at Granville Island, British Columbia, Canada
A total of 674 have been sold in Canada over the first six months of this year, letting the Soul EV overtake the Mitsubishi i-MiEV, which had 672 Canadian sales by that point.
At its current pace, the Soul EV could overtake the BMW i3 by year's end, becoming Canada's fifth highest-selling plug-in electric vehicle behind the Volt, Leaf, Model S and Smart Electric Drive. (If it doesn't itself get overtaken by the Model X, this is.)
Daimler, meanwhile, sold another Smart Electric Drive in June, and two Mercedes S550e plug-in hybrids. Meanwhile, Ford sold 14 Focus Electrics in June, and as noted, nine more Chevrolet Spark EVs were registered.

"The Beggar Maid" Alice Munro
"The Beggar Maid" was originally published in "The New Yorker" in June 1977.
It's hard to imagine that chunk of glossy pages, for it's one of the longer stories (with "Mischief") in the collection.
It's also hard to imagine reading "The Beggar Maid" without knowing everything about Rose that you've learned from reading the last four stories in Who Do You Think You Are?
(Really, I thought it was more than four short stories: it feels like I've known Rose for so much longer than that.)
When I first read the story, I mis-understood the first line:
"Patrick Blatchford was in love with Rose."
I thought I was going to read a story about Rose falling in love. That was completely my mistake.
You can see it there, those seven words.
It does not read "Patrick Blatchford and Rose were in love."
But it is a common teaching, perhaps even a common mistake.
Having someone in love with you is often equated to being in love, although you don't have to feel an iota of love yourself.
Being worthy of someone else's love makes you worthwhile? Perhaps it's even better than loving? Or better than being loved for yourself?
There are lots of muddles, lots of misunderstandings surrounding such things, in the lives of girls and women, in Alice Munro's short stories.
It's not named, but this not-a-love-story, "The Beggar Maid", takes place in London, Ontario. Rose is living with a professor (Dr. Henshawe) near Gibbons Park, she travels through Victoria Park to Patrick's apartment, and she attends The University of Western Ontario.
Nancy Falls and Rose sell their blood at Victoria Hospital, for fifteen dollars each, and they spent "most of the money on evening shoes, tarty silver sandals".
(You can hear Flo's voice there, right? Well, you can if you've read the earlier stories, but not if you were reading this story in "TNY".)
Rose is several years older, in a city a hundred-someodd kilometres away. But, indeed, the story could have played out anywhere, anywhere other than Lower Hanratty, from whence Rose came.
Part of the story seems to broadcast that fact, taking place in an airport, with no single setting more evocative of a transitory state.
And, actually, more of the story takes place in that airport than we realize until its final pages.
Rose has seen Patrick in the airport, after many years have passed, and the reader realizes that she has really only thought all of this, brought it all together in her mind, because of that sighting, because of their exchange.
It has fundamentally altered all that had happened before. Regardless of how she once thought of it, after this exchange, everything about her understanding of her relationship with Patrick is altered.
For readers of the collection, this is a vitally important story. Not only because of the stage-of-life shifts for Rose, but because readers now understand something of the vantage point that the narrator has.
"Sometimes when Rose was talking to someone in front of the television cameras she would sense the desire in them to make a face. She would sense it in all sorts of people, in skillful politicians and witty liberal bishops and honored humanitarians, in housewives who had witnessed natural disasters and in workmen who had performed heroic rescues or been cheated out of disability pensions."
Perhaps Rose really was "too smart for her own good" as her father warned in "Half a Grapefruit", but now readers have a sense of to whom Rose is speaking, when she would "queen it over them" with her stories of scandals and squalor from when she had been poor (in "Privilege").
Rose stands in front of an audience. In front of those cameras. She is as much observed now, as she was in that classroom being questioned about her breakfast choices. And she, in turn, yet observes just as closely as she once attended to the subtle back-and-forth of her father and Flo in "Royal Beatings". She dissects micro-expressions like she once dissected the movements of a man's newspaper in "Wild Swans".
Oh, it's impossible to imagine reading this story without the others (though obviously many do, and still admire the work). And, yet, the observations on class and femininity and desperation are all-of-a-piece with the collection.
But how could you not think of all the shame and disgrace and pretense and Flo's warnings from earlier stories when reading this bit: "They were longing to sabotage themselves, to make a face or say a dirty word. Was this the face they all wanted to make? To show somebody, to show everybody?"
Without that background, Rose, in this story, would seem alien, cruel, hysterical.
With the background, Rose is, simply, Rose. "For all that Patrick Blatchford was in love with her."
And even with the close reading, with spending a chunk of time reading and thinking about the story, it wasn't until now that I actually realized that — as much as I've tried to avoid one of the major spoilers in this discussion — with the verb tense in that sentence, it acts as a summary document.
It amazes me: what a single sentence in an Alice Munro story can hold.
Note: This is part of a series of posts on Alice Munro's story collection Who Do You Think You Are?, which will continue on subsequent Thursdays. Please feel free to join in, for the series, or for a single story. My Alice Munro reading project began with Dance of the Happy Shades, followed by Lives of Girls and Women, and Something I've Been Meaning to Tell You, and I aim to read through her work to date. She is one of my MRE authors.
Next week's story is "Mischief". Care to join in?

I'm reading this collection right now, just finished The Begger Maid. I'm loving how much the author has me invested into the story. I don't like Rose much, but I love how thought out she is, how real Munro has created her. I also thought this one was more of a love story and found out it wasn't that, exactly. I suppose for Rose, and who she's grown to be is a love story. It's been an interesting collection so far.
Buried In Print June 27, 2012 at 8:42 am - Reply
She is a believable character, isn't she, but you don't find her sympathetic, even in the earlier stories? Wasn't it amazing just how much was contained in "The Beggar Maid" though? It is like a novel in a story.
Oh yeah, "The Beggar Maid" felt read like a novel, despite it was so short, the author packed a lot in to it, and it worked out really well. A lot of story, along with emotional development of Rose. As for Rose her self, I dislike her mostly for some of her actions, although the more I read, the less I dislike her, even some of her, less attractive actions fall apart around her. And I do feel for her on a level that nothing in her life works out the way she wants. She's is a character who seems to be constantly beaten down by life.
I have two or three left in the collection, looking forward to see how the last story plays out and ties it up.
Buried In Print June 28, 2012 at 10:36 am - Reply
It does seem that way at times, but I wonder if that's only because we are inside her head, privy to her private thoughts and worries. I suspect that, viewed from without, Rose appears to be quite accomplished and contented. But I won't say anymore until you've finished, although it's not really a tight resolution, because I don't want to risk spoiling anything for you.
Iris June 6, 2012 at 6:42 am - Reply
I have just finished the whole collection, and I agree that "The Beggar Maid" is a sort-of turning point. For me, it enabled me to engage more with the characters and not just admire Alice Munro's superb writing.
It really is amazing how much Munro manages to capture in one sentence, in one paragraph. How she manages to twist a story, or to make you image just the sort of tone one of the characters uses to utter a sentence.
I have been wondering how these stories would read indepently. I can't hardly imagine it myself, but perhaps that is because with each story, Rose grew on me, and I felt I got to know and understand her better.

I suppose that it's all in how you discover them; it's hard to conceive of it having been another way, right? And, yet, there are a lot of universal experiences encapsulated in Rose's time with Patrick, so I can imagine wanting to know more about her, even if I just met her in that story, but I'm not sure if I would have felt that I understood her response near the end, which is complicated, even with that background! I'm having trouble making the collection last; I just finished "Mischief" last night, and soooo wanted to read the next, too.

Pastor Nate joins me this evening to speak about his journey to awakening on Biblical cosmology and how it cost to his livelihood. Nate is currently seeking new platform to minister and so I am asking people to assist he and his family transition this time comfortably. Please support his patreon account until he gets settled with new employment. It is sad that the churches are so close minded and unwilling to listen to the truth that they would fire individuals simply for attending conferences where truth is disclosed. It's just another sign of the times that we are living in.


My friend Janet recently visited the Purple Headquarters. Watch this video to get an insider look into the all new Purple mattress.
Purple recently introduced a complete new range of hybrid mattresses that deliver greater comfort.
Purple 2 has a 2-inch thick layer of smart comfort grid that offers better support than the Purple legacy mattress. If you already owned a purple mattress and hit the foam layer, you probably need more cushioning and that's where Purple 2 comes into play. Good choice for people that are slightly heavy.
Purple 2 has a 3-inch thick layer of smart comfort grid that delivers an added layer of comfort. Great for people who are looking for more cushiony feel.
This one has a 4-inch thick layer of purple smart comfort grid that is ideal for people that are extremely heavy. Don't opt for this one if you are not too heavy. If you're looking for plush, don't think of choosing 4 over 3 or 2. But if you need more cushioning, Purple 4 is the ideal choice for you.
23% of Americans face certain kinds of trouble while sleeping. Part of the reason is discomfort while trying to get into deep sleep. Users often switch between latex, memory and gel foam mattresses looking for the bed that gives them the perfect posture and support for aching muscles and pressure points, but all of these focus on only one of the features while compromising on the others.
Purple Mattress is your one stop solution to all your sleep related problems and comfort requirements. Enjoy the therapeutic comfort while you read your favorite book and let your muscles relax. Providing you the right amount of softness and firmness continuously, Purple Mattress ensures you get a good night's sleep and wake up refreshed. Say goodbye to sore muscles (Not like Chandler though), with the amazing pressure disseminating properties of the Purple bed.
This purple mattress review goes through the specs in detail, and lets you decide whether or not it is a good fit for you.
The purple mattress comprises of 3 layers to provide you maximum support without compromising on temperature and density. This mattress allows your spine to rest in its natural position and provides it with firm support from beneath. Since we tend to switch between different positions while sleeping, the mattress adjusts to your spinal alignment, delivering the highest level of comfort.
It does so by maintaining your natural curve when sleeping on your back, and the straight position, when you're sleeping on the side. This uniform spinal supports reduces backaches and spine related medical conditions. Perfect for individuals with osteoarthritis, the mattress is loaded with other features to make your jaws drop.
Each one of us likes to sleep in their own specific way, whatever position provides us with maximum comfort. Since the Purple mattress is the epitome of comfort and luxury, it caters to the needs of all sleepers alike. Wondering whether this mattress can suit your specific needs?
The Purple bed, through its uniform spinal support, lets your spine in its natural position whether you sleep on your back, stomach, or on the side. Maintains the natural curve when sleeping on your back, and keeps it straight if you're a side sleeper. No more tossing and turning at night, especially for people who face problems sleeping and pregnant women, who can't find the perfect sleeping position.
Supporting every sleeper according to their body weight makes the Purple mattress highly customizable and tailored to suit everyone's comfort level.
While light weight sleepers experience a floating feel, medium weight individuals get to sink a little deeper, without being pressurized at a single point. Individuals who are overweight need not worry, as the mattress comprises of 3 layers to provide you with optimum support balancing the sinkage.
Since the Purple Mattress is made from a combination of different materials, it possesses mixed qualities of all these materials combined. The hyper elastic polymer layer gives you the support of a latex foam, while its polyurethane foam disseminates body weight evenly.
The hyper elastic polymer does not retain heat, eliminating any chances of heat build up. The webbed pockets are covered with a thin yet breathable fabric layer, making it the coolest mattress (literally) you'll ever get your hands on.
While there are other commercially available options that give the Purple mattress tough competition when it comes to comfort, none beats the combination of comfort and sleeping cool. While other mattresses rely on the thread count of the fabric to determine how hot or cool you will sleep, Purple bed comprises of air pockets in a grid like pattern that allow for air flow to keep you cool throughout the night.
Purple's grid pattern distributes the body weight evenly by forwarding the pressure to surrounding columns, not letting it gather at a certain point. By doing so, it alleviates pressure off your pressure points and you no longer wake up to sore muscles, numb feeling in the arm or pelvic and shoulder pain.
Probably one of the greatest reasons to change mattresses is their inability to handle pressure and distribute it evenly. Pressure points are areas sensitive to pressure, found throughout our body at various points. This specific issue is addressed by the Purple's Mattress grid pattern present in its top layer.
The gel used in the mattress ensures that the foam does not sag too early. Unlike other mattresses, this mattress remains firm, even after continuous and long term usage, owing to its high density. Although it has the bounce of a latex mattress, it does not lose its spring like one. This definitely puts it above other mattresses.
Since you'll be investing a significant amount in the Purple Mattress, it is but natural to expect durability and longevity alongside quality. The comfort and coolness is of little use if the mattress isn't going to last a while.
Probably the only mattress to have passed the raw egg test, the Purple mattress is the perfect combination of firmness and softness. A mattress firm enough to provide support to all your pressure points and relieve backaches, and soft enough to cradle your shoulders and pelvic region.
The raw egg test is proof that softness and firmness can indeed co-exist in a mattress. The raw egg test is an experiment in which raw eggs are thrown from a height of 3 feet on the Purple bed, and while they break on a variety of other mattresses, they stay intact on the Purple mattress.
Purple Mattress relieves pressure not only physically, but mentally too. How so? By providing you an un-matchable warranty, it gives the competitor a tough edge. Since a mattress is not something you can test within hours or days, Purple bed allows you to use your product for 100 days, and if you're not satisfied with the results, you are entitled to a complete refund. Amazing, isn't it?
Purple Mattress understands concerns from a consumer's perspective and gives you with maximum comfort, whether its providing you uniform spinal support or simply the best money back guarantee deal.
The 100 Nights risk-free trial is an excellent way to check if this mattress is good for you or not. If, for any reason, you are not comfortable sleeping on your Purple bed, you can send it back and get 100% refund. This is the beauty of Purple and one of the main reasons why everyone wanted to give it a shot.
Mattress odor and material allergies are commonly experienced troubles when purchasing a new mattress. After finding out about the composition of the Purple bed, your next concern would be the odor and allergies associated with that. Purple Mattress takes care of that by giving you 100% hypoallergenic mattress material. Those of you who are allergic to plastic polymers have nothing to worry. Enjoy the comfort and luxury of this adjustable base mattress without compromising on your health.
Does your partner toss and turns around all night? Are you unable to sleep because of the continuous movement of the person sleeping next to you? While no other mattress tends to address this particular issue, Purple Mattress with its no feel motion transfer does not allow the passing of movement from one end of the mattress to the other. The grid pattern confines the motion energy to its point of origin, hence no feeling on the other side of the bed.
That does not compromise on the bounce level offered in this mattress, and is a win-win for both bounce and no bounce lovers. Since the Purple Mattress is different from your typical latex, memory and other spring foams, this no motion transfer feature makes it stand out among the rest.
Although this can be found in a spring mattress too, those of you who do not want coils but great bounce nevertheless, Purple Mattress is definitely the best choice around. Why is that, you ask?
The Purple bed is made up of three layers of foam and gel polymer, which differentiates it from others, giving it the bounce you long for. Bounce is a measure of how quickly the foam rebounds after pressure is applied, as opposed to simply sinking in. Purple mattress responds instantaneously to pressure applied, letting you reminisce childhood memories of jumping castles, minus the motion transfer.
The Purple mattress is the ideal choice for couples, especially if one of you keeps tossing and turning throughout the night. Purple Mattress with its no feel motion transfer keeps movement confined to its point of origin. So you can sleep at peace, while your partner finds his/her perfect position.
Purple Mattress is one of the finest choices to make if you are tired of sleeping hot and want your mattress to stay cool through the night.
The grid like pattern of the Purple bed allows air to flow, and its gel polymer maintains normal temperature along the mattress. This keeps the mattress from retaining heat and getting warmed up during the night.
The problem with other mattresses is their tendency to sink in when a slightly heavier weight is put on the mattress. This is where the Purple Mattress takes the lead.
The three layers of the mattress are designed to support individuals of all body weight categories. The third layer of the mattress instantaneously responds to the pressure put, giving you a perfect combination of being cradled and bounce.
Those of you who have changed quite a few mattresses, only to find out they still experience back and shoulder pain when they wake up, need to look no further. Purple mattress distributes weight evenly, alleviating pressure off your pressure points, that make the body go numb and sore while you sleep.
Get your hands on the Purple mattress and say goodbye to sore muscles forever.
Do you work from Bed?
If you're one of those people who like to do everything on the bed, from sleeping to reading to working, then the Purple bed suits you best. You can sit on this mattress for hours and hours, without going numb, (physical exercise is recommended though).
Apart from that, if this is taken with the adjustable base, it can be set to any desired position, depending on whatever you'll be doing next.
Why Purple Mattress is the Best?
Purple Mattress is highly customized yet suits the specific needs of its customers whether they are firm or soft mattress lovers. The perfect amount of bounce with a hug feeling as you jump into the bed is sure to make you fall asleep right away. That solves 23% Americans' sleep problems.
Bounce away as much as you want, without the person on the other end feeling anything. Sleeping hot is no more a problem as the Purple mattress gives you a cool airflow during the night with its grid like structure.
On top of that, its 100 day warranty with a full refund policy definitely makes it a Shut up-and-take-my-money deal.
Is Purple Bed worth it?
While the answer to this question varies from customer to customer, we will evaluate the claims made by the company in terms of average customer response. The gel technology gives a cool feeling when you sleep on it, so people who sleep hot can definitely rely on the Purple mattress as a replacement.
As far as the adjustment according to body structure is concerned, some customers may find the mattress too firm or too soft, depending on their own comfort level. Basically, the mattress is perfect for individuals who like to spend a lot of time on the bed and since you can change positions with the adjustable base, it has a lot to offer for a bed.
Everything aside, the 100 day money back guarantee, beats all other warranties. Even if it turns out to be the most uncomfortable mattress, you can always return it with a complete refund. So it is definitely worth the try.

Sammy is a friend of mine. I am the one who first encouraged him to try to help others to put on tefillin. He has only tried a few times and those few times that he came to help he did a better job of talking to the visitors than actually putting tefillin on them, but this time he was determined to not only bring a Jew in, but to also put tefillin on him.
He was standing there for only a few minutes when his "customer" arrived. The visitor was from Holland, 44 years old, and had never put on tefillin before. Sammy talked him into putting on tefillin, and then physically put the tefillin on him. Not only that, but he did such a nice job of helping him, that when he finished, the visitor asked for instructions how to buy a pair of tefillin. Sammy showed him how to do the mitzvah in such a special way that he had a very good time, and he wanted to do the mitzvah every day.
I do not know if you can tell from the picture, but as happy as the tourist was, Sammy was even happier. What a nice way to say "Thank you and see you later," to the Kotel.

The scenic Fardagafoss waterfall is situated close to the main road to Seyðisfjörður as it winds its way up the mountainside of Fjardarheiði, about 5 km from Egilsstaðir.
The ascent from the parking area to the fall takes about half an hour. Under way you can enjoy the beautiful gorge and views over the whole valley. The last stage of the trail is not an easy walk, a chain is fastened in the cliff to get down to the water, but it´s worth it. Behind the waterfall is a small cave and there is a guest book.

The reasons as to why firms are encouraged to hire managed IT services is because, the financial requirements with these services will be reduced. You can be sure that their services are of quality and you will spend less money. Saving money is good for business.


Within Mexico, Tijuana's mestizo culture is renowned: The city's booming manufacturing industry attracts migrant workers from all over the country, who bring with them disparate cultural traditions whose influence has long been felt in the music and food scenes. Now, it is on display at Object, a pioneering design shop in the city. "Most of the designers we carry work directly with traditional Mexican artisans from all over Mexico," says its owner, Verónica Hernández. She and the store's other co-owners travel throughout the country to source designs that often reflect regional manufacturing methods.
She opened Object with her sister Adriana Hernández and Adriana's husband, Rodrigo Escobedo Baena, in 2014. The shop's first location, now closed, was in an area historically known to cater to the vices of travelers from across the border. Tijuana's tourism declined during a murderous period in the late 2000s, when serial killings caused by drug cartel feuds gripped the city. "It's important to note that this building is located in downtown Tijuana, in the red-light district," says Baena of the new space. "We believe, as do others, that the creative industry can change this context in a positive way. It's a form of urban acupuncture," he continues, referring to the theory that small socioeconomic changes across a city cumulatively affect the overall quality of life there.
In addition to an exclusive furniture line designed by Baena, the store now carries an expanded collection of lighting from Candela, which references glass curio boxes commonly used for jewelry storage in many Mexican households. The designer Sonia Lartigue riffed on the vitrines' simple design, in which welded brass ribbing holds together individually cut glass panes. The resulting glass cube pendants and faceted table lamps allude to Old World Wiener Werkstätte-era lighting from the likes of Josef Hoffmann — while retaining a distinct Mexican minimalism.
In one corner of the store, a row of Sebastián Beltrán's pendant Tool lamps cast a glow on Object's textured plywood walls. The sculptor moved his studio to León, Mexico, to be close to the automotive-manufacturing and leather-tanning industries, where he's embarked on a career in design alongside his wife, the art director Lorena Marquez; they create work together as Natural Urbano. "It's a great location, since we can find infinite material inspiration for our products," he says. The Tool lamp's variously shaped metal drums are cast in an iron mold, refined using a lathe process and then secured at the top to a bulbous wood shaft crafted to recall the handles of sculpturing tools.

Mississippi (finally) catching up on craft beer
Despite its national explosion, craft beer lags behind in Mississippi, both in terms of production and consumption. But new legislation and new brews, including four from a Vicksburg native, are helping the market.
Mississippi (finally) catching up on craft beer Despite its national explosion, craft beer lags behind in Mississippi, both in terms of production and consumption. But new legislation and new brews, including four from a Vicksburg native, are helping the market. Check out this story on clarionledger.com: https://www.clarionledger.com/story/magnolia/taste/2017/05/15/mississippi-craft-brewer-returns-home/322470001/

Vicksburg native Jamey Price opened Grayton Beer Company on the Florida Gulf Coast in 2011. Four Grayton beers are now distributed in Mississippi.(Photo: Special to The Clarion-Ledger)
When Jamey Price took a sip of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale as an Ole Miss student during a spring break trip to Lake Tahoe in 1997, it opened his taste buds to the burgeoning industry of craft beer.
For Price, a Vicksburg native, the beer was an example of the craft beer chasm that exists today in the South even as the industry has made gains in the region and more than doubled nationally over the past eight years, with $23.5 billion in sales.
More: Craft beer in Mississippi: A change is brewing
That fateful spring break trip for Price planted the seed for what eventually became Grayton Beer Company, which he and his wife, Candace, opened in Santa Rosa Beach on the Florida Gulf Coast in 2011.
"(Thinking back to that Sierra Nevada), it tastes nothing today like it did in 2002 because of the evolution of hops. U.S. hops are now considered the best," Price said. "The evolution of the industry has elevated the quality of raw ingredients. It's what has shaped the craft beer movement."
Sierra Nevada and Anchor Steam in California, and New Belgium in Colorado, are leaders in the craft beer industry, Price said, and have helped push craft beer to over 12 percent of all beer consumption. In the South, craft beer only accounts for 3 percent of all beer sales, Price said.
Price is doing his part to expand the Southern beer palate. Four Grayton Beer Company brews entered the market in Mississippi this year: Pale Ale, Fish Whistle IPA, 30A Beach Blonde Ale and Salt of the Gulf, a salty gose-style beer.

"To be able to go back to the place where my core values were formed and be able introduce our product into those markets is one of the greatest accomplishments I've ever had," Price said. "Getting the brewery off the ground was great, but it's great to get a picture from my mother and they've got my beer on tap (in Vicksburg)."
Grayton Beer Company's beers are available across the state and at more than 35 restaurants and retailers in the Jackson area, with more being added.
Price studied accountancy as an undergrad at Ole Miss, which he attended at the same time as pitcher Jamey Price, who set the school's single-season strikeout record in 1998.
"I'd have scouts calling me looking for Jamey and I'd have to tell them that the guy they're looking for is about 8 inches taller," Price said of the 6-foot-7-inch pitcher who shared his name.
Price and his wife moved to Florida in 2005 to work for a software company. Searching for an opportunity to put roots in the community, Price wrote a 48-page business plan, and Grayton Beer Company was born.
"We've outgrown the initial numbers from that business plan," Price said.
The company employees 27 people full time, giving a boost to the seasonal, tourism-based local economy.
Grayton Beer's distribution expansion includes Florida, Alabama, Georgia and Tennessee. The latter two states lead the South in craft beer consumption, but it's a market with plenty of room to expand. Price commended another Vicksburg native, Linus Hall of Nashville's Yazoo Brewing Company, for helping expand craft beer by working with legislators and wholesalers in Tennessee.
"(Hall) helped create a landscape more welcoming for breweries, and when we went into distribution in Tennessee, we were able to have a level of success that was greater than we would've had otherwise," Price said.
In 2012, Mississippi became the last state in the country to raise the permissible alcohol content in beer from 5 percent to 8 percent, paving the way for more independent breweries in the state.
At the end of 2016, there were more than 13 breweries in the state. Lazy Magnolia in Kiln was Mississippi's only craft brewery before the law change. The Brewers Association says Mississippi is 51st in the nation in breweries per capita.
On July 1, Mississippi breweries will be able to sell their own beer on premises, the second-to-last state to enact such legislation.
Price says educating consumers is key for expanding craft beer's influence across the region. Grayton Beer sells a German-style gose brewed with the same salinity as the water in Leipzig, Germany, which can be unexpected to the American palate.
"A guy emailed me to tell me it was the worst beer he'd ever had in his life," Price said. "I emailed him back with a link and some context. He apologized and said it was a great representation of the style. That's the level of education we're dealing with."
Ultimately, Price wants his market to look for a beer that enhances flavor.
Price recommends an IPA with spicy foods, a pale ale with seafood and a porter or amber instead of red wine with a steak.
"You don't have to pound light lager ... if you understand the nuances of beer. You can have it be a go-to when it's time to eat."

The British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) named Ava DuVernay's Oscar nominated mass incarceration documentary 13th Best Documentary.
13th traces the history from the US constitution's 13th amendment, which abolished slavery and involuntary servitude, to 2016, where one-in-three black American males can expect to be imprisoned during his lifetime. It explores racial imbalances in the criminal justice system, and features appearances from author Michelle Alexander, activist Angela Davis, and Senator Cory Booker, among others. At it's core, this powerful film charts the path that shows the audience how history has been repeating itself from the Jim Crow era to the present.
The award was the first BAFTA win for Netflix, and in three out of the last four years, the winner for Best Documentary at the BAFTAs won the Oscar for Best Documentary. This is a very good sign for the eye-opening and ground breaking documentary.
The film, which premiered theatrically and on Netflix streaming earlier this year, became the first documentary in history to open the New York Film Festival in October, and has already won Critics Choice Documentary Awards for Best Director, Best Documentary Feature (in the TV/Streaming category), and Best Political Documentary, and has been nominated for a 2017 Spirit Award.
Congrats to Ava DuVernay and Viola Davis!

Govt approves setting up multi-storey car parking in Phagwara
The government has approved the establishment of a multi-level parking on the land of Old Jail building situated in the busy Banga road market here with a view to resolve traffic problems being faced by commuters.

The project of the municipal corporation (MC) to establish a multi-storey car parking, worth approximately Rs 11-crore, will have four floors and capacity to park as many as 250 cars at a time.
Officials of the MC said the government has approved the detailed project report (DPR) for establishing the car parking and building plan has been prepared.
However, MC authorities have not yet received any funds from the government to accomplish the project but authorities are hoping to receive the financial grant within a month or two.
As per information, the Phagwara City police station was being run from the earmarked building earlier and the building was lying vacant from the past many years after the police station was shifted to the nearby newly established building as the old building was declared unsafe.
On getting to know about the problems being faced by commuters in the crowded market, the MC officials selected the site of the Old Jail building for building a multi-level parking and sent the DPR to the government.
The Banga road witnesses heavy rush as it is linked with all the major markets, which have narrow streets, including Bansa Vala Bazar and Sarafan Bazar.
People who come to the market especially for shopping face a huge parking problem and are forced to park their vehicles on the roadside, causing traffic jams and inconvenience to the commuters in the evenings.
Phagwara MLA Som Parkash, who is also the chief parliamentary secretary of the department of local government, said the building was lying vacant and there was dire need of parking in the area as people were facing traffic bottlenecks and lack of space for parking.
He said land was acquired from the police department after clearance from the government a building plan has already been drawn up for establishing the multi-storey parking.
"We are only waiting for the release of funds from the government and will immediately float tenders to start the project after receiving funds," he added.

The first Dylan album that fully embraced the electric band is over half a century old, but still sounds as fresh as ever. From the first note, Highway 61 is like a shot in the arm that just doesn't let up.
ManMachine Nov 12, 2017
Released in 1965 - "Highway 61 Revisited" would be Bob Dylan's 6th studio album.
Born in 1941 - Dylan (real last name - Zimmerman) was 24 at the time that he wrote and recorded these songs.
This CD contains 9 tracks in all. Two of my favourite tunes are - "Like a Rolling Stone" and "Highway 61 Revisited".
Bob Dylan is now 76 years old and still active in the music business.

Released August 30, 1965, after coming home from his tour in England (where he was famously booed). Highway 61 Revisited peaked at No. 3 in the United States charts and No. 4 in the United Kingdom. The album was ranked No. 4 on Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums of All Time". "Like a Rolling Stone" was a top-10 hit in several countries, and was listed at No. 1 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time list. (wikipedia).
The song Like a Rolling Stone, employed young lead guitar from Michael Bloomfield, of Paul Butterfield Blues Band. Bruce Springsteen was 15 years old when he heard it and had said, "That snare shot sounded like somebody'd kicked open the door to your mind." (Rolling Stone)
These lists are looking primarily, at rock and pop music from the 50's on wards, but rated from other musicians and reviewers of similar time and background. They do not include pre "rock n roll" music, and was published in 2004.
That being said, the recording sessions started on June 15th & 16th, resulting in a recorderd version of the masterpiece, "Like a Rolling Stone," where Dylan sang at the July 25th, Newport Folk Festival, where he played a controversial electric set , causing some people booing him.
Dylan and his band went back to the studio between July 29th to August 4th, to finish the album. (dates from wikipedia).
Another masterpiece i had always felt on that album, was the "Ballad of a Thin Man," supported by questioning lyrics and eerie bluesy electric organ riffs by Al Kooper. John Lennon even referred to "Dylans' Mr Jones," in his"'Yer Blues" song.
My mum and I spend many hours listening and writing down the lyrics to this album, pre lyrics being added to the vinyl sleeves at that time and not having the money to go and buy a published book of the music and lyrics. Not understanding everything said or even knowing if it was to be understood, but the lyrics and music took us to experiences of rare destinations.

Highway 61 Revisited begins with the crashing and iconic first notes of "Like a Rolling Stone", a definitive anthem of the 60s and a song Rolling Stone magazine listed as the single greatest track of all time. That's being a tad overly generous. It's a great piece of music, yes, but far from Dylan's best, as it replaces sharp lyrics with catchier ones. Nonetheless, it's a lively track, and a magnificent album opener.
It transitions into "Tombstone Blues", another fast-paced song. Dylan's voice is perhaps at its most boring, but his lyrics are very clever. His songs are written on par with the great poets of his generation. "Tombstone Blues" is evidence of his gift as a songwriter.
Then we move into a softer piece, "It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry". It's easier on the ear (a result of Dylan using the best of his voice), and has a far less aggressive tone. The piece is written with sexual imagery and smooth bluesy backing music.
"From a Buick 6" is essentially a continuation of "Tombstone Blues". It's another track with a fast tempo, strong lyrics, and a band of rock musicians as opposed to the folk sounds early Dylan fans expected and admired. It's this shift from straight folk to folk-rock that alienated Dylan's audience – listeners who believed social commentary couldn't be incorporated into rock music. These days, such criticisms seem trivial, but at the time, Dylan was largely branded as conformist.
As the harmonica from "From a Buick 6" has faded out, "Ballad of a Thin Man" opens with its familiar and striking opening chords. The song is an underappreciated masterpiece, and certainly the greatest song from Dylan, who, despite writing it, claims to have no understand of what it's "about". There are several clear recurring themes, such as hypocrisy or the mood in America during the 60s cultural revolution. Dylan displays a degree of range in his voice, often shifting into a softer tone. And the lyrics are haunting as Dylan tells of the misadventures of one "Mr. Jones". While certainly a boggling listen, "Ballad of a Thin Man" is Dylan at his most poignant, powerful, and ingenious.
"Queen Jane Approximately" is like an underrated "Like a Rolling Stone". They share a similar sound and a cautiously optimistic mood. While "Queen Jane Approximately" lacks the catchiness of the album's first track, there's an emotional component Dylan succeeds in capturing here that "Like a Rolling Stone" lacks.
Then, a whistling sound notifies us we've moved onto the title track, "Highway 61 Revisited". It's built on biblical and historic references colliding with aspects of modern society. It's a well-written song, though it does little to distinguishing itself, making somewhat of an album low point.
Perhaps the gloomiest the albums gets is on "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues", a melancholy eighth track. Dylan's voice is strong and meshes with the aforementioned rockish turn.
Then there's the 11-minute acoustic finale, "Desolation Row", which is perfect evidence of Dylan's immense skill as a lyricist. His words interweave figures from history and fictitious (mostly literary) characters into his highly detailed tapestry of loneliness. It's Dylan in another masterpiece that would've satisfied both the fans of "folk Dylan" and "rock Dylan". It's a tremendously lyrical and powerful way of ending one of the greatest albums ever recorded.

Bob Dylan is playing the Paramount Theater this weekend. What a time to look at one of his greatest albums "Highway 61 Revisited". Every song seems better than the last. This is the album to put at the top of the Bob Dylan Record Collection. Ask yourself this, "It takes a lot to cry, it takes a train to laugh". Who else could have had a song with that title?
