The Flash S04E15 – Enter Flashtime
In an intimate opening sequence where Barry says "I can't save us", was the perfect start to the self-contained episode Enter Flashtime. Taking a break from DeVoe, season 4 episode 15 features all the Flash's (except for Wally), trying to stop a nuclear time bomb from exploding within seconds, where Barry, Jesse Quick and Jay Garrick travel through the speed force to find a solution of how to save Central City.
The Flash has been burdened not only by its main villains, but its smaller everyday episodic villains as well. Seeing a new meta-villain every week, to inevitably somehow get captured or disappear leaves no room for imagination or stakes for viewers. However, this week we get to see a new type of villain, Veronica Dale, a leader of an extremist eco-terrorist group. Not only was she not a meta, but belonging to an enemy faction increases the intensity of the villain for future episodes.
After going through every 'smart' or powerful ally, Barry, Jesse and Jay find no solution. It is only until he speaks to Iris that he gets the answer to his problem. Just like the villain, the hero could appear as a normal person, but a different perspective is exactly what you need.
A lot of relationships were deepened and explored further, emphasizing the intimacy of the episode. After the near death situation, Harry finally opens up to Jesse about her mother, and Tom Cavanagh is the only person who could have pulled such an emotional moment so fitting in The Flash. Caitlin and Killer Frost might start becoming one entity, much like Firestorm, where she remembers what Killer Frost was doing for the first time ever. And the ominous girl from a few episodes ago, is back, in what can only be described as recon for a stalker.
Legends of Tomorrow S03E13 – No Country for Old Dads
In last week's episode, Ray decided to turn back and save Norah Darhk from his anti-magic ray gun. However, his scout's honour got him kidnapped. Damien forces Ray to fix the fire totem, but can only done with a massive amount of energy, such as the invention of cold fusion. Damien gallantly reveals that cold fusion was invented, he just assassinated the man; cue 1960's Berlin.
Nora & Ray go on a time trip to save the inventor of Cold Fusion. Meanwhile, on the Waverider, Rip and Wally are on board, Sara and Ava spend the night, Amaya and Zari go on a vision quest, and Nate and Mick are nowhere to be found. No Country for Old Dads, like the film the title is referring to, explores the complicated relationship between child and father, as well as the father's quest for glory. However, without a milkshake in sight, Damien does understand the importance of his relationship with Nora. Whilst on their journey, current Damien fights 1960's Damien to save his daughter, only for Nora to soon unlock the spirit totem's powers. Despite Nora and Damien's newfound powers and bonding experience, the Legends arrive in the nick of time, with their newest member stealing the show. Wally manages to steal the fire totem from Damien, saving Ray at the same time.
Nevertheless, the spirit totem is corrupted, and Amaya & Zari's spiritual journey reveal the darkness in the spirit world. A talk with their ancestors reveal that Mallus is derived from the spirit world, and it's only the power of the spirits that can save time itself from Mallus' threat. In other bad news, Grodd kills director Bennett right in front of the Legends' eyes, making Ava director of the Time Bureau now. And her first order, getting Rip back on board. As Ava and Rip say their goodbyes, Wally returns the wave but decides to stay on the ship, but as Rip cunningly usually does, he tells Gideon to delete a file about the 'secret' of Ava's history.
Arrow S06E15 – Doppelgänger
Just like seeing your best friend from childhood who you haven't seen in ten years, Doppelgänger showed the world how much we missed Roy Harper. With a spice of season 2, featuring intimate relationships and old memories, season 6 episode 15 gives a much needed revitalization to the show.
Apparently the case against Oliver Queen as the Green Arrow continues, when the accuser brings out a new subject to testify. In addition, Laurel Lance goes public to being Laurel Lance, adding new complications to Oliver's simple life. Whilst Curtis tells Rene's daughter the sad news about her father, Oliver finds out Roy Harper is the person of interest. Thea, dawning the red hood, and Laurel, dawning the Lance hood, become the subject of this episode.
Exploring the old relationship between Thea and Roy was such a delight, and felt very refreshing, as opposed to the constant conflicting bickering between the two hero teams. And although still part of the episode, Dinah and Curtis are hardly noticeable, as the show revolved about the honesty between Thea, and the dishonesty of Laurel. And although it has been a while since Thea has hurt anyone, the red hood, Thea managed to show the human side of her. Whereas, Laurel appearing to be more empathetic by being Laurel Lance to everyone else, really is playing everyone behind their backs by getting in bed with Diaz.
Roy is eventually saved and is reunited with Thea (and Oliver). However, this is by no means a long term plan. The return of Roy would be a fantastic replacement to Diggle, who constantly battles injury after injury, but at the same time, if he leaves it would be a great out for Thea as well, who has not had much significance to the show since her return. The episode ends with another player in Star City, the League of Assassins, with an unknown lady mouthing the words 'the heir of Ra's al Ghul.
Best Moments of the Week:
Harry's emotional scene with Jesse
Worst Moments of the Week:
How fast were they running to do all that in a few seconds?

Mainstreaming of Guidelines for the Development of Curricula on Land Governance in Africa: The ALPC – in the context of the SLGA programme, is seeking support from land governance experts to examine and apply quality standards and ensure mainstreaming of the Guidelines for the Development of Curricula on Land Governance in Africa. The Guidelines seek to fill gaps in the curricula used to train land professionals in Africa.
AJGS & LG is a journal specialized in publishing research activities carried out in the field of geospatial sciences and land governance. It aims to encourage innovation, promote the exchange of knowledge and scientific outcomes related to its themes. The journal's target community is made-up of researchers, professors and professionals working in the newspaper field. The journal also aims to promote scientific articles and productions at the African, regional and global levels.
Scholarships are awarded generally only for selected institutions that are affiliated with the programme. These will receive a maximum quota of scholarships (both In-Country and In-Region with an emphasis on In-Region scholarships) for (post)graduates programmes or individual doctorates.
A delegation of 15 members of academia from the Network of Excellence on Land Governance in Africa (NELGA), as well as African national ministries, gathered in Germany in September 2018 for a Study Tour focused on Land Governance.
2017 was a very successful year for NELGA: the network is now fully established, with lead institutions active in all 5 regions of the African Union and more than 50 partner universities and research institutions in over 30 countries.
Following the launch of the NELGA regional centre in Southern Africa on 19 February 2018, a masterclass themed "Land Governance and Corruption link" was successfully delivered on 20 – 22 February 2018 by the Namibia University of Science and Technology (NUST).
Bahir Dar University is the first university in Ethiopia that has a doctorate degree on the topic of land policy and governance on offer. For many years, the university has been a Centre of excellence for the education of professionals in land management and land administration.
From November 12th to 14th 2017, the Network of Excellence on Land Governance in Africa (NELGA) hosted its first scholarship holders' meeting in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. For three days, 35 scholarship holders from eight African countries took part in the event.
From 14th to 17th November the African Land Policy Center (ALPC) hosted the second Conference on Land Policy in Africa (CLPA) in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. This time Africa's promising and fast growing youth was the focus of the Conference.
Through innovative research and training NELGA creates strong capacities for good land governance and contributes to implementing the African agenda on land.
We encourage growth in the number and quality of land-related training opportunities. We strengthen and mainstream land governance issues in land-related education and higher learning programmes. We support education institutions to align their curricula to the needs of the labour market.
NELGA engages in poverty-oriented, conflict-sensitive and gender-sensitive research. We generate high quality research products. We translate analytical findings into operational engagement to create policy driving evidence on land governance.
NELGA fosters South-South dialogue and knowledge sharing on land issues. It builds ties and enhances cooperation between African universities and research institutions in support of land policy development, implementation and monitoring by providing capacity building and advice for member institutions and countries.
We enhance tracking, monitoring and evaluation of land policy processes in Africa. We provide relevant data on land governance topics and create a repository for data. We strengthen analytical capabilities of African research institutions for producing and analyzing data.

bioText: Praised by New York Times best-selling author Dee Henderson as "a name to look for in romantic suspense," Dani Pettrey has sold more than 400,000 copies of her novels to readers eagerly awaiting the next release. Dani combines the page-turning adrenaline of a thriller with the chemistry and happy-ever-after of a romance. Her novels stand out for their "wicked pace, snappy dialogue, and likable characters" (Publishers Weekly), "gripping storyline[s]," (RT Book Reviews), and "sizzling undercurrent of romance" (USA Today).
From her early years eagerly reading Nancy Drew mysteries, to paging through Agatha Christie novels or watching on-the-edge-of-her-seat adventure movies, Dani has always enjoyed mystery and suspense. She considers herself blessed to be able to write the kind of stories she loves—full of plot twists and peril, love, and longing for hope and redemption. Her greatest joy as an author is sharing the stories God lays on her heart. She researches murder and mayhem from her home in Maryland, where she lives with her husband. Their two daughters, a son-in-law, and two adorable grandsons also reside in Maryland. For more information about her novels, visit danipettrey.com.

State Attorney General Buddy Caldwell said he does not see the need to file a lawsuit against the National Football League over ownership of "Who Dat'' or the fleur-de-lis.
Caldwell said he and members of his staff spent an hour on a conference call with lawyers for the NFL over trademark claims to the slogan and symbol that have become attached to the New Orleans Saints.
Caldwell said the bottom line from the legal back-and-forth with the league is that the NFL "is conceding it has no exclusive rights to the fleur-de-lis and no exclusive rights to 'Who Dat' and offshoots of 'Who Dat,' and no exclusive rights to the colors black and gold."
Caldwell said his office was drafting a document to be signed by the state and the NFL by Tuesday outlining what is and is not allowable.
, Caldwell said merchants can sell products with the and phrase and flower insignia as long as they do not claim it is officially licensed NFL items. "They can't represent it as a Saints logo or product," Caldwell said. NFL officials could not be reached for comment.
Over the weekend, the Democratic State Central Committee, the board that governs the state party, called on Republican Gov. Bobby Jindal to get Caldwell, a Democrat, to file a lawsuit to protect the use of the phrase and the symbol.
Caldwell said his office was researching the matter since before Saturday, shortly after the NFL first sent cease-and-desist letters to merchants for selling items that are not licensed.
The league targeted use of the fleur-de-lis -- a centuries old symbol of French royalty -- and the phrase Who Dat.
That created storm of controversy from members of the congressional delegation with U,S. Sen. David Vitter, R-La., threatening to have his own Who Dat shirts printed and dared the league to sue him.
U.S Rep.Charlie Melancon, D-La., who is running against Vitter this fall, posted an online petition to get angry Saints fans and others to sign to get the league to back down.

Cotton Gin and the Expansion of Slavery
A petition by Eli Whitney to the US Congress requesting renewal of his cotton gin patent, 1812.
In this petition to the US Congress, titled as a "memorial," Eli Whitney makes the case for the renewal of his patent for a cotton gin. He narrates the history of his invention, patent, and subsequent legal challenges. Whitney applied for his original patent in 1793 and he received it in 1794, but it was not validated until 1807. Because of a loophole in the 1793 patent act, Whitney and his partners could not collect any money from their lawsuits against copycats until the law was changed in 1800 to allow for the awarding of damages for patent infringement. Congress did not approve this request to renew Whitney's patent in 1812.
To the Honorable the Senate and House of Representatives in Congress assembled,
The Memorial of Eli Whitney
Respectfully showeth,
That your memorialist is the inventor of the machine with which the principal part of the Cotton raised in the United States is cleaned & prepared for market. That being in the State of Georgia in the year 1793, he was informed by the planters that the agriculture of that state was unproductive, especially in the interior, where it produced little or nothing for exportation. That attempts had been made to cultivate cotton: but that the prospect of success was not flattering. That of the various kinds which had been tried in the interior, none of them were productive, except the Green seed cotton, which was so extremely
[[object Object]]
difficult to clean, as to discourage all further attempts to raise it. That it was generally believed this species of cotton might be cultivated with great advantage, if any cheap and expeditious method of separating it from its seeds could be discovered—and that such a discovery would be highly beneficial both to the public and the invention.
These remarks first drew the attention of your memorialist to this subject and after considerable reflection he became impressed with a belief that this desirable object might be accomplished. At the same time he could not but entertain doubts, whether he ought to suffer any prospect of so precarious a nature as that which depends upon the success of new projects to divert his attention from a regular profession.
About this time Congress passed a new Patent Law, which your memorialist
considered as a premium offered to any citizen who should devote his attention to useful improvements and as a pledge from his country that in case he should be successful, his rights and his property would be protected.
Under these impressions your memorialist relinquished every other object of pursuit and devoted his utmost coercions to reduce his invention, which, as yet was little more than a floating image of the mind, to practical use—and fortunately for the Country he succeeded in giving form to the conceptions of his imagination and to matter a new mode of existence and the result of this new modification of matter was everything that could be wished.
After reducing his theory to practice by effectual and successful experiments your memorialist took out a patent.
So alluring were the advantages developed by this invention that in a short time the whole attention of the planters of the middle and upper country of the Southern States was turned to planting the Green Seed Cotton. The means furnished by this discovery of cleaning that species of cotton were at once so cheap and expeditious and the prospect of advantage so alluring that it suddenly became the general crop of the country.
Little or no regard however was paid to the claims of your memorialist—and the infringement of his rights became almost as extensive as the cultivation of cotton. He was soon reduced to the disagreeable necessity of resorting to courts of Justice for the protection of his property.
After the unavoidable delays which usually attend prosecutions of this kind
and a laboured trial, it was discovered that the Defendants had only used—and that was the law then stood they must both make and use the machine or they could not be liable. The Court decided that it was a fatal, though inadvertent defect in the law and gave judgment for the Defendants.
It was not until the year 1800 that this defect in the law was amended. Immediately after the amendment of the law, your memorialist commenced a number of suits but so effectual were the means of procrastination and delay, resorted to, by the Defendants, that he was unable to obtain any decision on the merits of his claim until the year 1807—not until he had been eleven years in the Law and thirteen years of his patent term had expired.
A compromise has been made with several of the States to which your memorialist has assigned his right and relinquished all further claims; but from the state in
which he first made and introduced his invention, and which has derived the most signal benefits from it, he has realized nothing—and from no state has he received the amount of half a cent per pound on the cotton cleaned with his machine, within that state in only one year.
Estimating the value of the labour of one man at twenty cents per Day, the whole amount which has been realized by your memorialist for his invention is not equal to the value of the labour saved in one hour by his machines, now in use, in the U[[object Object]] States.
Permit your memorialist further to remark that by far the greatest part of the cotton raised in the United States has been & must of necessity continue to be the Green Seed. That, before the invention of your memorialist, the value of this species of cotton after it was cleaned was not equal to the expense of cleaning it. That since the cultivation of this species has been a great
source of wealth to the community & of riches to thousands of her citizens. That as a labour-saving machine it is an invention which enables one man to perform in a given time that which would require a thousand men without its aid to perform in the same time. In short that it furnished to the whole family of mankind the means of procuring the article of cotton, that important raw material, which constitutes a great part of their clothing at a much cheaper rate.
Your memorialist begs leave further to state that a confident expectation that his case would be embraced in the general law which Congress has for several years had under its ideation, has prevented his making an earlier application. That the expenses incurred by him in making and introducing this useful improvement and establishing his claim to its invention, have absorbed great proportion of what he has received, from those states with which he has made a compromise.
That he humbly conceives himself fairly entitled to a further remuneration from his Country—and that he ought to be admitted to a more liberal participation with his fellow citizens, in the benefits of his invention.
He therefore prays your Honourable Body to take his case into consideration and authorize the renewal of his Patent or grant such other relief, as Congress in their wisdom and their justice may deem meet and proper.

Before building a gazebo in the country, we recommend you to make a small sketch of the future structure, on which its main components should be indicated. In addition, you will need to determine the location of the recreation area, taking into account the features of the terrain in your suburban area.
In the article we will consider two options for the construction of arbors. One of them involves the construction of a metal collapsible structure of bent thin-walled profiles, which with the advent of winter can be easily dismantled. As for the second of these options, it provides for the use of wood.
To begin with, we will consider a variant of a team arbor with dimensions of 2x2 meters, made of standard metal profiles of suitable size.
A prefabricated metal frame can be used as the basis for the design of the future gazebo, the assembly of which is carried out using bolted joints or by a combined method (using welding). In accordance with the garden building project, later this frame is covered with standard plastic sheets or covered with household plastic wrap.
Wood materials are traditionally used in the construction of not only the supporting foundations (frameworks) of garden buildings, but also in the installation of their individual components. At the same time, the lower and upper piping of the future arbor, its pillars and the so-called "struts" (stiffeness elements) can be made of wooden bars of a corresponding section.
In most constructions of this class, wood blanks are also used for making fences and in preparing flooring In addition, wood is also taken as the basis for manufacturing the roof frame (batten) of the future structure.
The choice of a constructive solution (as well as necessary for its successful implementation building materials) is determined, as a rule, the main purpose of your building. When constructing gazebos for a barbecue or barbecue, for example, preference should be given to stone or metal. For the construction of light buildings, designed to rest after exploring the park, the best tree is suitable, allowing you to implement the most unusual and original design solutions.
composite materials (metal tile, for example).
In the economical version, the roof of the gazebo is closed with sheets of asbestos cement or profiled metal. When choosing a metallic coating, it will be necessary to take into account its increased "noise", which manifests itself during heavy torrential rains.
For a prefabricated metal structure, the use of a foundation base is a prerequisite for its reliability and durability .
For the buildings of the class we are considering, there is no need to set up a powerful foundation with deep-seated individual foundation components. It will be possible to use the simplest of its options, involving the pouring of concrete posts placed under the corner joints of the lower strapping of the structure.
If the soil in the built-up area has an increased density (loam, for example ), then it will be possible to use segments of metal corners of a length of the order of one meter that were driven into the ground as a foundation. In addition, the length of the pile foundation can be played by pipe sections, into the cavity of which concrete mix is poured, as well as individual samples of rolled products (channels, profiles).

Torbay primary schools sign up to initiative which encourages children to engage in daily physical activity.
Torbay Council's Public Health Team is teaming up with the Herald Express and Golden Mile, sponsored by Premier Sports to promote the Run For Your Life initiative, encouraging children to engage in daily physical activity.
Run For Your Life is a campaign where primary school pupils simply walk, jog or run around a measured mile track within the safety of school grounds. It is a great opportunity to reward personal achievement and encourage pupils to take part in daily physical activity.
Executive Lead for Health and Wellbeing, Cllr. Jackie Stockman, said: "In Torbay, the majority of children's physical activity takes place during the school day. Run For Your Life is a safe, simple and measurable initiative to engage children in regular daily physical activity.
Schools will start 'running' after the February half-term and the campaign will continue until 12 July when a celebratory awards event will bring it to a close. Schools who have signed up will have the chance to use the Golden Mile software until January 2019.
The number of overweight children in Torbay, in line with the national trend is escalating year on year. Engaging in physical activity for at least 60 minutes a day can lead to benefits such as improved cardiovascular health and the maintenance of a healthy weight.
For more information on Golden Mile and the Run For Your Life campaign, please visit schools.golden-mile.org.
At Kings Ash Academy throughout the 14 weeks of the Autumn term all pupils in the school took part in the daily mile. Teachers and Teaching assistants joined the children as they made their way around four laps of the school site to achieve the distance of a mile every morning. Collectively over the term the pupils from Kings Ash had walked over 26,000 miles!. The Academy started the Daily Mile as research had shown that 20 minutes of daily physical activity can increase attainment, health and well-being.
With the appointment of a new Executive Headteacher Jessica Humphrey and Head of School Laura Kies Physical Education is now a real focus of the school. This term with the traditional winter weather the focus has changed to increasing Physical Education. The appointment of specialist PE teacher Lloyd Blackler and PE assistant Andy Saunders has allowed all the pupils to have a doubling of their PE lessons and a tripling of PE after school clubs. Mr Blackler said, "we are delighted to be joining the Run for your Life campaign, the benefits of regular exercise is unprecedented and fitter pupils will benefit our lessons and clubs, we are proud to be part of the initiative and look forward to seeing the progress over the coming months.
Run 4 Your Life is a fantastic initiative. There is now overwhelming evidence that being more active is beneficial for both your emotional and physical health as well as being sociable and fun.
In Torbay we want to get as many children active as possible - it will improve their physical health but also help them to concentrate better and help their learning too.
It will also help address an issue, which is concerning me as Torbay's Director of Public Health, that there are a high number of children in the bay who are overweight and obese. There are many things we need to do to address this but children getting more active is key.

One-Day Start Date Postponement To Accommodate Religious Observance: Not An Undue Hardship
May 23, 2017/Richard Cohen/Comments Off on One-Day Start Date Postponement To Accommodate Religious Observance: Not An Undue Hardship
Hard to believe but true.
A Maryland logistics/delivery company was just sued by the EEOC because it refused to hire an applicant for a dispatcher/customer service position who could not work on Rosh Hashanah due to his religious beliefs.
Why did it do that?
Got me.
Apparently, he was willing to start the day after Rosh Hashanah, but a company VP told him, according to the EEOC, that he had to report to work on Rosh Hashanah because "the company only honored federal holidays, and that if he gave [him] a religious accommodation, he would have to extend them to other employees."
When he reported to work the following day, he was sent home.
An EEOC Regional Attorney said that "The freedom to exercise one's religious beliefs is one of our nation's fundamental values. Mr. McCloud simply asked if he could start work one day later than scheduled so he could observe Rosh Hashanah, one of the Jewish High Holy Days. A one-day postponement of a start date is not an undue hardship."
One day later — why would an employer do that? Hard to fathom.
I have noted before that religious discrimination was formerly a backwater of employment discrimination law but has shot to the forefront in recent years. Indeed, as we have seen in this blog "employers refusing time off for religious observances has become an increasingly common issue affecting the workforce."
The EEOC recently sued a Georgia automotive parts manufacturer and supplier for alleged religious discrimination for firing an employee who, because of her religious beliefs, refused to work mandatory overtime hours on designated Saturdays. Initially she was excused from sundown Friday through sundown Saturday, until a new supervisor refused to accommodate her, and she was fired.
And last month I reported on a South Carolina company which had hired a Hebrew Pentecostal truck driver who told them that he could not, for religious reasons, work on the Sabbath, but it eventually fired him for refusing to do so. The EEOC sued the company.
Takeaway:
Unless it creates an undue burden, an employee's religious practices and beliefs must be accommodated by an employer. And an employer must engage the employee in the famous "interactive process" to determine if there exists an accommodation that is not unduly burdensome.
Moreover, and this is important: most religious accommodations are not unduly costly! Which is why I am always a little stunned that employers fail to accommodate a religious belief when it is so easy to do.
And a one-day postponement of a start date does not appear to be an undue hardship.

College Fair allows high school students to explore opportunities

High school students visit FMU's College Fair to meet with representatives from various universities.
Brooke Holden, Staff Writer
Nearly 2,000 high school students visited the FMU campus to attend the Pee Dee Area Consolidated College Fair on Tuesday, Sept. 25.
The fair was held in the University Center (UC) Commons and Gym. Students from the Camden, Chesterfield and Florence areas were given the opportunity to speak with representatives from 57 colleges and universities.
The College Fair introduced high school students to Coastal Carolina University, College of Charleston, Pfeiffer University, Rutgers University and many more educational institutions.
Kayla Kimbrel, a junior at Mayo High School for Science, Math and Technology, believed the fair was beneficial in aiding to secure her college choice and exposing her to smaller colleges.
"[The fair] was very informative," Kimbrel said. "There was a lot of colleges that I wanted to learn more about, like the major ones, and then there were some smaller that I didn't really know anything about, but I do now."
College representatives expressed their expectations of prospective students and what students can take from this experience.
Steven Cote, a transfer counselor from Western Carolina University was on the lookout for engaging, well-prepared students.
"The thing that we are looking for the most is to have a conversation," Cote said. "Any information that [students] get from our table, they can also get from our website, so this is the unique opportunity that [students] have to seek out conversation from us."
North Greenville University Representative Justin Pitts praised the planning and programming that went into preparation of the fair, but wishes to reach out to the home-school community, which he said is tough to do.
"With any consolidated fair, like this, home-schooled students are hard to reach because they're usually in their home, not in any one place, typically," Pitts said. "I'm on a committee for a consolidated college fair in Greenville, and [the home-school community] is a hard barrier to break into."
Pitts said he met with one or two home-schoolers of the 2,000 that attended and wants to explore more effective ways to reach them.
Other college representatives commented on the students' behavior and conduct, as a whole. Converse College Representative Ashley Moreira said she was impressed.
"Some students were dressed more professionally, which I really appreciate," Moreira said. "I think it shows maturity and it really helped them be assertive as they were asking questions. There were even a few students who took the initiative to shake my hand, which is very impressive."
Cote said the students were more prepared at this college fair than other college fairs this year. The readiness is refreshing and results in reason to continue the College Fair experience at FMU.
"[By] having that level of expectation, that's going to make for an even more successful program, not only for the college representatives but for the high school students," Cote said. "It will give us an opportunity to have a reason to come together every year."

Where Did The Round, Yellow Smiley Icon Actually Come From?
Is it possible to even say the word "smilies" without smiling just a little? Since the smiley icon was created more than forty years ago, they have been brightening days for millions of people. However, smilies can actually refer to at least two different things.
One type of smiley is a symbol used to convey emotion in a text message. Also known as an emoticon, this type of smiley is created by combining different punctuation marks and letters. The traditional smiley is a yellow button with two dots and a half circle. The two dots represent eyes while the half circle represents a smiling mouth. Interestingly, traditional yellow smilies have experienced a resurgence in popularity as the graphics capabilities of both computers and the Internet have continued to develop .
The origin of traditional yellow smilies is not completely clear. There are at least three competing claims for fatherhood of round, yellow smilies. In 1963, State Mutual Life Assurance, a Worcester, Massachusetts insurance firm, was looking for ways to lift the spirits of its employees following a difficult company merger. They hired graphic artist Harvey Ball to help out. He created a round yellow button with the now-familiar two dots and a half circle. The idea behind wearing the brightly-colored buttons was to inspire the workers to smile and to help them spread good cheer.
The buttons were remarkably popular and the company scrambled to make more. Ball was paid $45 for his design work. He later remarked that it had never occurred to him to trademark the design. Over time, smilies fell into the public domain.
In 1971, French entrepreneur Franklin Loufrani began using smilies as icons to highlight good news stories as part of a newspaper promotion. The icon is now trademarked by Loufrani in more than a hundred countries, but not in the United States. The "official" website for smilies can be found at SmileyWorld.com. There is yet another who claims to have had a hand in the invention of smilies. David Stern, owner of an advertising agency based in Seattle, reportedly invented the smiley face icon in 1967.
Anybody older than forty probably remembers the huge explosion in popularity that smilies experienced during the 1970s. Two brothers named Murray and Bernard Spain began producing novelty items based on the yellow smiley icon face paired with the phrase "Have a Happy Day." They ignited a smilies craze that lasted from 1970 until 1972. More than 50 million smilies were manufactured during this short two-year span.
Today, smilies can still be found adorning a huge variety of merchandise. Graphical smilies are also used extensively on Internet forum messages and different Internet chat mediums. The yellow smilies are also used by America's largest retailer, Wal-Mart, as a mascot for their low prices. Wal-Mart recently sought to trademark smilies, but so far has been unsuccessful.
Smilies have evolved with technology and are used in ways that the original designers probably never envisioned. But the basic goal of the smiley icon remains the same: to communicate good feeling and to make people smile.

Hello everyone! And welcome back once again. How ya been? Hopefully good.
I know it's been a hot minute since we last chatted so lets do a quick recap.
Met the nurse practitioner, who looked over my medicine that the doctors had me on and she's like "why do they have you on this, for the type of migraines you have-these actually trigger more migraines. You not being able to keep food or the medicines down really limits us to what we can do. Well, I do have another patient who suffers from Hemiplegic Migraines he prefers this type of cocktail of drugs would you like to give it a try?"First day I tried the new meds, felt so much better at the doctors my migraine pain was like 7.5 after taking the meds 2 hours later the pain level was one. The next day I was completely fine, for once I actually had energy and I was over sensitive to anything sounds, smells lights. Also I wasn't nauseous! Although, I did randomly vomit at some point in the day; that was weird to do projectile vomit with no warning, but I still felt great, I actually went well enough to the point where I wanted to go out and talk to random strangers and ask them how they were, but the horrible weather outside was like . Then the day after the migraines came back…Long story short the medicine isn't working anymore. I feel like my migraines are getting stronger and i might be building up a tolerance to my medicine, even my anti-nausea medicine that i use to help keep my medicine down isn't working I'm popping at least 3 of those pills, when at the beginning with one pill I would be fine for the whole day.
. The family decided on 7 days of seafood tradition (I hate that tradition-and wanted no partake in it so the sandwiches were supposed to cover me for those days -mom and bro ate my food.) later on that day, when asked where are the presents told them there were none.
NYE, due to a lack of funds, and hardly any food in the house. I saw no need to celebrate. I didn't even watch the ball drop. All I could think was the past couple of years have not been kind to me. Why celebrate 2017, if this (looks around the room) is how it's gonna be. When I woke up, I heard Mariah Carey had given a horrible performance in NYC.
BTW: took an astrological quick 2017 astrological chart reading on several sites. First site said "this was not my year". Other site said "your job will become obsolete and you'll get let go in the second half of the year." And the third site is like "holy crap you've been hit with a lot of bad luck these few years which is odd because your chart indicate your life shouldn't be this hard good news is its a transition year that means you're in for some big changes but you're gonna get hit with one more horrible thing.before it gets better.'. Me : seriously. The reading I got in 2016 says accident, near death but I survive -I'll be injured but I will get over it and move to brighter days I'm just like "I'm not looking forward to that hospital bill!" But I don't mind the food but on the off chance the food has gone down hill since 06 I hope someone sneaks me in good seasoning Lol I can imagine the look on the nurses face when she strolls in to check my vitals "what are you doing!?" Me: making the food tasty, its missing fat and butter I am not down with this healthy crap! and no; I will neither give you my butter or my spices we are in a recession!
Well, that about covers it, hope everyone else has been having a much better time than me.
Okay, so we all know i'm leaving for my D.C trip next week. It's going to be my first solo trip and i'm really looking forward to it. I've been talking about this trip sporadically for a couple of weeks, I've asked my mom advice about toll booth money, and about renting a car. Last week, she asks me to help out with the cable bill (the previous week bro demanded I help with the bill, this two days after SallieMae was "Guess whose back? you're six months are up! You've a bill to pay!") So at that rate I was rather annoyed. I don't mind helping her, but it's like "you know I'm leaving in a few weeks right? I really don't have the money to be paying these bills. right before the trip, I took care of my bills ahead of time so I could enjoy my trip with no issues but she is doing the most.
So she brought up the bill again, and I reminded her "You know i'm leaving next week right?" And she gives me this shock look that says "You were serious about the trip." Then she asked me "How are you getting there" I reminded her yet again that i'm driving (The first time I told her she was shocked and I said 'don't worry i'm renting a car I'm not taking yours'-I'm not that rude enough to assume she would let me take her car out of state. That seem to make her happy, and she didn't give any advice on car renting she said "you don't have car insurance they'll probably charge you $500.00 on top of the fees. (I have never rented a car before but that didn't sound right. I contacted a rental place and their like the deposit is $250 + w/e the rental for the car is.) I've been looking up car rental places, hotels, I order a travel guide of the city so I could make an itinerary, it's like "what the hell did you think I was going on about it for?" Now mom is trying to talk me out of the trip and using the whole ["You can't do it by yourself. whose going with you? me: It's a solo trip! mom: you can't do the high way, me:I'm pretty sure i've done the high way before." Her: How much are you taking in gas? Me: $130 give or take. Mom: that's not going to be enough, you're not renting a huge car are you, those pull too much gas, you'd be better in a smaller car.] I don't like this "naivety/learned helplessness" thing she's trying to push on me. There is nothing mentally, or physically wrong with me that would inhibited me from doing this drive. I was telling her, I got to learn at some point, and of course I wouldn't take a big car. One they cost more to rent let alone fill up with gas, and two i'm the only one in the car why would I need something huge? then she started asking me to look at her work schedule even though we had went over it 2-3 weeks ago and established that she's working those days and can't go. * I feel like she thinks i'm not thinking at all , I know I need a car, with a GPS, I know that will cost money. I plan on making sandwiches and drinks the night before the trip, so I don't have to worry about food along the way. (so that'll save me money). I've also planned an itinerary with things (majority of them free) but some do cost money, the most expensive thing on my list is madam T. house of wax which is $20, but with my coupon that brings it down to $15 without out tax.
Which I'm grateful for, its like "are you really trying to crash my trip?" We all know my 26th birthday (last year) sucked! It will definitely go down as one of my most unhappiest birthday. My 25th birthday, I took her to ballet (I paid for the tickets, and the parking) all she did throughout everything was complain. She complained about the paying for parking (even though I was one who paid), she complained we should have saw "BB King instead" (even though it was my birthday gift to myself not hers.) She complained so much about everything that even the ushers were annoyed with her. We ended up leaving at the half-time part. I was really embarrassed by her behavior, she still doesn't think she did anything wrong.

Why attend court when summonsed?
In this guest blog, Alan Murdie, LL.B, Barrister discusses why he believes people should attend court when summonsed.
When I was at Bar School in the 1980's, we were essentially taught:
"You will be a barrister with rights to appear in all courts and tribunals. You will be instructed by a solicitor. If your client is on a low-income – certainly if lower than yours is expected to be – then your client may qualify for legal aid which will also help pay the solicitor. Legal aid is there for many legal cases civil and criminal."
How I wish you could turn back the clock!
It seems like a lost golden age. But even then, there was never legal aid for local tax cases before the magistrates' court. So if you ended up not paying the bill for the rates on your home (as the local tax was known) you could not get a legal aid lawyer to come and represent you.
This was the same under the short-lived and ill-fated poll tax or community charge.
It has always been the case with council tax
There is no legal aid for council tax liability orders. Even though, in an average year, they represent the greatest number of judgements passed in any type of debt proceeding.
The official policy under successive governments is not to fund defence lawyers to fight on your behalf in your local magistrates' court in a local tax case. The only exception is committal to prison. Indeed, since the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 received Royal Assent on 1 May 2012, even fewer people can claim any state help anything at all.
So, if you are going to be represented, you have to pay for a barrister or solicitor yourself. Inevitably, this is a luxury that many people summonsed cannot run to. After all, if you could afford legal representation, you would more than likely have paid your local tax bill to begin with…
Summons errors
I have seen a summons for a dog in Hackney called Pancake (addressed to a 'Mr Pan Cake'); a gentleman on the Isle of Wight addressed formally in a summons as 'Mr Isle of Wight County Council' – which sounded like some kind of body builder. I've also seen in proceedings commenced against a city in Poland rather than the actual lady whose name was grossly miss pelt.
Nothing eclipses three summonses in Lambeth in 1990 respectively addressed to 'God the Father, 'God the Son' and 'God the Holy Ghost'. Either it was divine intervention, or the the result of a hoaxer or data tampering. There would certainly have been an argument about whether these summonses had been properly delivered and served to the right address, if this mistake had not been detected before the hearing.
Summonsing the dead takes place from time to time. One case was defended by the daughter of the deceased taxpayer turning up in court with his ashes in a cremation urn. There have been instances of people who are fully exempt being summonsed such as the seriously mentally impaired and full-time students.
To cap it all, summonses even get sent to people who have paid.
Errors creep in
These mistakes should have been spotted, but too much is automated. Errors creep in. Computers run much of the process and summonses going out in bulk – waves of thousands at a time in urban areas. The council computer sends a signal with a batch of data on record to defaulters to the magistrates' court computer, resulting in the issue of summonses in those names.
Many debtors are destined never to appear. Other people have just simply moved elsewhere and left no forwarding address. But for those who have an argument over the bill, the vital thing to do is to turn up at the magistrates' court. If only to seek an adjournment of their case.
The importance of attending
Invariably, if you do attend court when summonsed – and this is strongly advised – you may find the Council becoming a lot more reasonable.
They may well have staff at court wanting to help and sort problems out. Sometimes, this is less motivated by a wish to see your problem solved but from fear that you may go into court and start representing yourself before the magistrates.
This is your right, as the summons under section 34 of the Council Tax (Administration & Enforcement Regulations 1992 SI 613. It has been sent to allow an opportunity for the person to "appear before the court to show why he has not paid the sum which is outstanding." Which means you have a right to go and present your case yourself.
In theory, everyone summonsed is entitled to ask for an individual hearing before the magistrates. If that happened – given thousands of people are summonsed at once – then proceedings would become impossible and the system would grind to a halt. Thus, Councils often try to discourage attendance.
At the very least, the Council wants to avoid the spectacle of an individual taxpayer taking up time before the court.This could potentially show the Council and its workings in a bad light.
For example, the council may have failed to work out a council tax reduction or not determined an application for a discretionary reduction. Or you may have an appeal for the valuation tribunal. Worse still, you might even ask the Council to justify its costs, appearing on the summons, and which are typically inflated in England with 'admin costs'. Just what are they, please?
Councils would much prefer it if you don't show up at all
But the best advice is to attend court when summonsed. Because if you do attend physically, then the Council may become amenable to sorting out your problem or reaching an amendment.
With bigger debts, the higher courts increasingly expect the person to put their case at the earliest opportunity. In such a case, the magistrates may agree to adjourn the case. This can provide a breathing space for settlement.
Often there is not much the magistrates can do, but the hope is you and the Council reach an agreement. The magistrates may even tell the Council to go and have a meeting with you outside the court to do just that. If the Council does reach an agreement, always get a copy in writing. In some cases, the Council may apply to withdraw the case against you entirely.
So, the best advice is to attend court when summonsed.

It's not as quick as these recipes usually are, so for this one I made it over the weekend as a grab-and-go to have during the workweek. It's great for any meal or snack, and it's great cold, hot, or room temperature. Trader Joe's make a great soy-rizo – that's what I used. I left out the paprika because I didn't have any and didn't want to buy some just for this, and I still thought it was very tasty.
Preheat the oven to 350 F. In an 8-inch nonstick saute pan, place the cauliflower planks and cover with 1/4 cup water and a pinch of salt. Place on medium high heat, cover and steam until the cauliflower is tender, about 6 minutes. Remove the cauliflower, blot dry, and set aside.
Wipe the pan dry and add the olive oil and onion and cook over medium heat, stirring, until the onions soften, about three minutes. Add the grated zucchini, and cook until tender, stirring often, about five minutes. Add the chorizo and smoked paprika, and cook another five minutes, stirring often, and then remove from heat. In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole eggs, the egg whites and milk. Add the zucchini and chorizo mixture and stir. Add the cheese and stir.
Spray the pan with a little olive oil in a mister (or nonstick spray). Pour the egg mixture into the pan, and then layer in the cauliflower planks, gently pressing into the eggs. Bake until egg is completely set, about 15-18 minutes. Remove pan from oven and allow to cool for at least five minutes. Use a spatula to loosen the tortilla from the pan gently, and then carefully flip the whole tortilla onto a large plate or cutting board. Cut into wedges and serve. May be served warm or chilled.
