Research suggests buddy system help dairy calves develop
Everyone needs friends to improve their quality of life, even dairy calves.
In a study on the effects of housing types, Mississippi State University scientists found that dairy calves develop better when raised in pairs. Stephanie Ward, a dairy management and nutrition scientist in the MSU-based Mississippi Agricultural and Forestry Experiment Station, said this research should provide insight for dairy farmers who practice grass-based dairying.
"Many dairy producers in the Southeast are moving towards grass-based dairying," Ward said. "As a result, farmers often group house calves. Understanding the impact of housing on calf-to-calf interaction, feed intake and health is crucial."
Karley Parker worked on the study during her last semester as an MSU undergraduate majoring in animal and dairy sciences. Upon graduation in May, Parker began classes in the university's College of Veterinary Medicine.
"Our calves that were paired actually had better respiratory scores than the calves that were housed individually. In the dairy industry, it's often thought that housing calves together increases risk for infection," Parker said.
Housing type also had a positive effect on feed intake, and calves that were paired took less time to find feed when they were weaned into larger groups.
Parker's undergraduate research project looked at calves from birth to week 10. Researchers collected growth data, which included heart girth, wither girth, body weight and length, and hip width and height. They also assessed respiratory and fecal health scores during this time.
Researchers studied behavior scores at three, five and seven weeks from birth. At week eight, they studied how long it took the calves to find feed and eat after they were returned to the open pen with other calves.
The study also examined feeding frequency. While it impacted post-weaning growth rates, it had no impact on calf interaction, feed intake or calf health.
Ward said animal behavior studies are a growing area of interest as consumers become more concerned with the source and treatment of animals producing their food. This data was presented at the national meeting of the American Dairy Science Association in July and was included in a critical animal research and Extension grant proposal. Experiment Station scientists are also exploring collaborations with colleagues at Virginia Tech and in Canada for further research.

Q: Cooper wave function and gap function have same symmetry properties It says the symmetry of Cooper pairing wave function $\Psi(r_1,r_2)_{s,s'}$ and mean field parameter $b(r_1,r_2)_{s,s'} = \langle GS| \psi(r_1)^\dagger_s \psi(r_2)^\dagger_{s'}| GS \rangle$ have similar symmetry properties and can be writen as
$$
\phi(R)f(r_1-r_2)\chi_{s,s'},
$$
with $R = (r_1+r_2)/2$ as center of motion.
$f(r_1-r_2)$ can be classified as angular momentum of rotaion symmetry $l = 0,1,2,...$ and $\chi_{s,s'}$ as spin singlet and triplet.
Therefore, superconducting gap function can be classified in a same way.
How can we understand, in an exact way, $\Psi(r_1,r_2)_{s,s'}$ and $b(r_1,r_2)_{s,s'}$ have same structure above, although it is intuitively reasonable.

Roberto Firmino Eyes End to Goal Drought as Liverpool Face Leicester

Roberto Firmino will seek to end a rare goal drought when Liverpool take on Leicester although his manager Jurgen Klopp has no concerns about a drop-off in productivity.
Updated:August 31, 2018, 11:45 AM IST
The Brazil international has formed one of the most feared forward lines in European football over the past 12 months with Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane.
And the 26-year-old, signed for £29 million ($38 million) from Hoffenheim three years ago, has continued his excellent form in Liverpool's 100 percent start to the campaign -- three victories and three clean sheets in as many games.
Yet despite scoring 27 times for last season, Firmino is still looking for his first goal of the new campaign even though Liverpool are the early Premier League pacesetters.
The forward has not scored in eight games for Klopp's side and in the Premier League has one goal in his past 10 appearances, a run that dates back to March.
But Firmino's selfless running has been singled out as one of the reasons Salah looks capable of continuing the prodigious production of last season, when he scored 44 times for Klopp in all competitions.
The Liverpool boss says there is no sense of a World Cup hangover for Firmino, whose Brazil side exited the tournament at the quarter-final stage.
"He had two weeks pre-season, which is quite short for a player who needs his physical fitness as much as Roberto does but I'm completely happy," said Klopp.
"After two weeks' preparation and a Brazilian holiday he is much sharper and fitter than I would have expected. It is exactly how it should be in this moment and he can improve, like we all can improve."
Along with his mobility, Firmino's eye for a killer pass has not been dulled by his exertions in Russia.
His superbly timed pass against Brighton last week played in Salah, who scored the game's only goal as Liverpool moved to the top of the Premier League table for the first time in nearly two years.
Klopp has stressed that Liverpool need to improve despite the 1-0 win, and the German must decide whether to name an unchanged starting line-up for the fourth consecutive game at the King Power Stadium on Saturday.
Central defender Dejan Lovren, a World Cup finalist, is pushing for a return, although the impressive form of youngster Joe Gomez may mean that the Croatian faces another afternoon on the bench at Leicester.
With Liverpool's front three selecting themselves, Klopp has to decide on his midfield line-up -- England's Jordan Henderson has been unable to secure a starting place so far.
Liverpool's defence, boosted by the arrival of Brazilian keeper Alisson, has yet to concede and has the added advantage of not having to face Jamie Vardy, who announced his retirement from the England national team this week, due to suspension.

Now, I'm looking for ideas for a Thanksgiving feast for just one or two...I'll be spending T-day with my mother, while the rest of my family runs off to various points north and south!
You could still do the "traditional," just downsize it. Get a turkey breast instead of an entire turkey, or even turkey filets. Maybe have an untraditional dessert (i.e., not pumpkin pie) that you and your mother both like.
Those are some good ideas, friend! I'm going with a slightly nontraditional dessert...I'm making mincemeat pie, from scratch! We'll have a whole turkey, though, since the leftovers freeze well and are so economical right now. I'm also contacting our church to see if there are any single people who'd like to come join us.

How To Overcome Anxiety and Own Your Vision with Kat Harris
There's ALWAYS more work to be done, more people to meet, and more concepts to brainstorm... but hustling endlessly comes at a cost. For today's guest, Kat Harris, that cost was crippling anxiety attacks and overwhelming exhaustion-- that was her wake up call. Through her rise as a super successful photographer, the founding of an online magazine, honing her content creation skills, and starting a podcast of her own, Kat has learned the importance of putting her own oxygen mask on first, but it hasn't been a smooth ride by any means. Listen in as well discuss the really important (and really HARD) things we need to tackle as ambitious women with big goals.
The single MOST important relationship we'll ever have is with ourselves, yet so many of us our guilty of leaving our own needs as an afterthought. Whether you're an entrepreneur, a student, a mom, a corporate girl boss, or anything in between, it's so easy to let our ambitions and hunger for success totally take over. There's ALWAYS more work to be done, more people to meet, and more concepts to brainstorm… but hustling endlessly comes at a cost.

Listen in as well discuss the really important (and really HARD) things we need to tackle as ambitious women with big goals.
"Really the underlying vision for everything I do is this passion I have for women to know their beauty, identity, and value from the inside out– everything I do is a vehicle for that message" (4:30)
"I want women to know that they matter, and one of the reasons why that is my biggest message is because it's the biggest message that I need to hear. I struggled for so long, believing that of myself. I could see the beauty and the worth and value in every single person around me, but I couldn't see it for myself (5:00)
"We live in a society that says 'do what feels good'… so then feeling becomes the basis for truth, and the problem with that– at least for me– is that my feelings change 1000 times every day, and it also stunts me looking to the future (14:00)
"One of the first things to do [when gaining clarity] is pause. Just stop and take inventory… it takes courage to pause when you're in the middle of something, and zoom out, and really take inventory of your life" (18:00)
Questions for identifying what lights you up and is potentially your bigger purpose (19:00)
"Long term rhythms are created by tiny movements. We all want the massive tidal wave or the overnight success story, and it's not like those don't happen, but most often in my life, it starts off… slowly over time, making tiny, minute changes that are committed to my growth (26:15)
Kat's practical strategies for overcoming the feelings of self-doubt and insecurity, including how to practice truth statements (31:45)
Through her struggles with anxiety and burnout from being so wrapped up in her career, she learned that "I can't serve others if I first do not love myself", and that she's not willing to sacrifice everything, include her health and sanity, for her career. Kat shares the mental shits she has had to go through in order to overcome anxiety and figure out what truly matters to her now (45:00)

Q: Retrieving products revenue in Google Analytics via its API In Ecommerce section of Google Analytics I have products revenue in % and $. How can I retrieve those from API?
I don't need the exact code, I just need the way explaining how to retrieve them directly or calculate them.

I think it annoys God if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don't notice it.
– Alice Walker, The Color Purple.
I have been keeping a gratitude journal since November 30, 2012. I don't remember why I started doing it. Probably because I read about the idea in one of the countless books that I consumed that year, and it sounded like a good idea at the time. Fortunately, it was a good idea and has proved to be a worthy practice as I walk through the days and the weeks and the months. I have missed one day so far – June 21, 2013. Perhaps the longest day of the year doesn't need extra acknowldgement because it is already so saturated with light.
The intent to notice these little bits of happiness each day has created a sense of spaciousness that wasn't there before. Or maybe it was there, but I didn't take the time to invite it into daily life. To be thankful for something is to recognize how it has added a layer of beauty to an ordinary day.
Looking back, some days sound pretty routine.
November 30, 2012: Watching Eva notice the world around her.
February 24, 2013: Hearing Nick read books to Eva before she goes to bed.
March 5, 2013: Listening to Eva babble to herself as she wakes up in her crib.
Some days have events that are unlikely to ever be duplicated.
December 16, 2012: A bird, standing on ice that is barely covered with water. A Jesus bird.
August 23, 2013: The neighborhood black bear cub, strolling past my office sliding door in the morning sun.
April 11, 2014: Passing the neighbor kids walking their new goats on leashes before their parents could tell them to stay off the road.
Some days are more challenging.
December 5, 2012: Being able to offer comfort to Eva when she's not content.
October 14, 2013: The contrast that is provided by people who don't see what I see.
November 13, 2013: How the gift of soup from a neighbor can erase loneliness.
Most days celebrate the way a physical body can move.
September 16, 2013: Running around the lake and picking cherry tomatoes to start the day.
November 2, 2013: Yoga – the way movement and breath provide a way to re-center on the present.
January 13, 2014: Skiing across the frozen lake into the rising sun.
All days are punctuated by the presence of life and the vibrancy of the natural world.
December 26, 2012: The way a single snowflake can catch the light and sparkle like a diamond.
January 16, 2013: Pink clouds moving across a late afternoon sky, filling the horizon with warmth on a cold day.
April 3, 2013: New life emerging from the soil as the mid-west welcomes another spring.
August 20, 2013: Tangerine skies and evening shadows that hint at possibilities yet to come.
October 5, 2013: The way that orange maple leaves command attention.
January 14, 2014: The muted beauty in fresh snow falling off of pine trees in a gentle breeze.
To be thankful. I think the beauty in the world can only grow if we remember to notice it. Perhaps noticing it – and giving voice to the noticing – will allow it to seep into the spaciousness that exists in each of us as we walk through the days, and the weeks, and the months.
What gratitude practice will you use to invite beauty into your days and weeks and months?

Bloodshot (2020) Movie Review: Not as Perfect as the Hype
This was his directional debut and it wasn`t badly directed, but this film needed to be unfolded differently
Cristina Soulmates	- Sat, 14 Mar 2020 14:42:32 +0000	1757 Views
Genre: Action, Drama, Sci-Fi
Director: Dave Wilson
Writer: Jeff Wadlow (screenplay by), Eric Heisserer (screenplay by)
Stars: Vin Diesel, Eiza González, Sam Heughan
Plot Summary:Ray Garrison, an elite soldier who was killed in battle, is brought back to life by an advanced technology that gives him the ability of super human strength and fast healing. With his new abilities, he goes after the man who killed his wife, or at least, who he believes killed his wife. He soon comes to learn that not everything he learns can be trusted. The true question his: Can he even trust himself?
The director David S. F. Wilson and crew brought a foreseeable adaptation. This was his directional debut and it wasn't badly directed, but this film needed to be unfolded differently. When they released the 1st trailer the story felt completely told well the plot holes were obvious of how they were bringing up the story and even if one didn't watch the trailer the movie still revealed the true event too early. It may not have been surprising, but still entertaining, even for a film that I never had expectations. Though I expected more fighting sequence to be at the level of one being mind blown because of his enhancement body. The effects of nanotechnology were great, but it needed more scenes to shoot it off. Honestly, it is a film that I wouldn't re-watch, it is like a one-time entertaining film, but I wouldn't mind if they target for a sequel.
The composer Steve Jablonsky almost had this character's theme to be remembered. The music is good but needed more heart to make a Bloodshot theme.
Even though the film wasn't perfect that doesn't mean the cast was bad. When Vin Diesel takes upon a badass role nothing stands in his way. There are so many actors that are trapped in the same role and Vin Diesel in an exception because he is so good at it and it never gets tiring watching this kind of performance. Guy Pearce an actor that has no limit, is the kind of actor that one can always enjoy any sort of performance. Now Sam Heughan's performance was a breath of fresh air, he is known for the role of Jaime in the incredible TV series Outlander. The series is currently in its 5th season and is magnificent as ever and watching this actor in this film as a villain was different in a positive way. Hopefully, now he will have turned heads with his magnificent performance. Lamorne Morris, the one who brought the humor, entertaining from the moment he made his appearance, loved his character. I can't say much for Eiza González and it isn't her fault, she barely performed almost every shot was projected to be a sexy symbol. She is more than being beautiful, and given the chance, she could have performed great, but instead, they preferred to win the audience this way.
Final Score: [6/10]

Teaching With Things
PosturAroma necklace is a wearable device designed to help women feel safer by enhancing their posture. It uses the powerful relationships between scent, emotion and confidence through embodiment. The necklace intends to change body posture to make women feel safer by using a combination of sensors and scents. By sensing the angle of the back and using scent as a trigger, the user is reminded to keep her head up and straighten her back when stepping into the world.
Visit project site here.
Feeling safe in public spaces is often seen as a result of a combination of the design of the environment and the social control that is present in the space. But it is necessary to look beyond the space itself as to how the individual can or does influence his or her own feelings of safety. More specifically, the body, its movements and posture as the central focal point. Experiments have shown that body posture can show a person's vulnerability. When a woman travels in public space, this vulnerability can be noted by possible attackers. In general, this is the one with the most insecure, vulnerable body posture. Studies have shown how emotions are shown during certain postures. Certain postures are connected to fear, which is depicted by a slightly slouching person.
One of the strengths of the concept is that it involves empowerment by a fashion statement. At the same time it shows that scent can be used as a non-intrusive reminder of emotion-affecting body posture. The design combines an individual focus with a public impact, influencing emotions through embodiment by introducing the necklace that reminds the wearer to walk straight and as a result, influence felt emotions such as confidence and prevent feelings of unsafety caused by slouching. User tests have also proved that scent was a pleasant way to be reminded of a bad body posture. It reminded the participants that they had to sit up straight, because the connection between scent and body posture was made. Also there is a possible effect of personalised scents on comfort, which is interesting for future research. The necklace is situated in a more preventive approach rather than a defensive one.

Middlebrook Gardens
The Helen Ross McNabb Center recently opened its third veterans housing project. The opening of Middlebrook Gardens brings the number of units available to veterans who might otherwise be homeless to 33. Cedar Crossing, which opened in 2014, has eight units; Washington Oaks, which opened in 2015, added 15 units. Middlebrook Gardens has space for 10 veterans.
Residents at Middlebrook Gardens have their own one-bedroom apartments. The residents are nine veterans who were homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. A resident manager occupies the tenth apartment.
Peter Schwark, the resident manager at Middlebrook Gardens, understands the population he serves. Schwark, an Air Force Translator, Army 2B Special Operations Group, grew up in New Orleans with three siblings. He has children, ranging in age from 36-40, who live all across the U.S. He comes from a military family
"My father has every medal except for the Distinguished Flying Cross," said Schwark. "He has Air Medal Croix de Guerre from France and was in the Berlin Air Lift.
"My ethnic heritage is German, Cherokee, Yugoslavian and American. Growing up I learned English first, and my mother often spoke to me in Yugoslavian, as well as Cherokee, Russian and French which helped in the military and led me to being a translator."
"After I graduated from tech school, I was stationed in Athens, Greece," he continued. "In Athens I did security service and assisted in translating as well as aviation services. I served in Bosnia as a translator in Yugoslavian. I was also stationed in Iran and assisted in evacuating military personnel from Iran. I was an expert in hand-to-hand combat and a combat medic."
"Being in the military provided me with excellent training and an opportunity to travel. You can transfer nearly all your military skills into civilian life."
After leaving the military, Schwark said he "worked a caterpillar in Illinois, worked in the tool room and did plant maintenance. I was a boat captain off the Louisiana coast. I have been a fishing and hunting guide. I have also taught survival skills classes."
When a medical procedure left him unable to pay his rent, working with his Veterans Affairs Case Manager, he was able to find housing at Washington Oaks. In September Schwark moved into Middlebrook Gardens as its resident manager.
"I like it here," he said. "It is beautifully landscaped, quiet and peaceful. And I get to talk with veterans on a daily basis and help them out as much as I can."
Each apartment has a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living room. Through community donations, veterans have been provided with kitchen and bath supplies: small appliances, cleaning supplies, dishes, towels, sheets, etc.. Each apartment is fully furnished. The Military Services building operated by the Helen Ross McNabb Center is conveniently located next door to the residential units.
The property currently has a walking trail and will ultimately have a pavillion and raised beds. The landscaping was done by volunteers, a local group of Eagle Scouts and their families, led by Levi Bohne and his father Jason Bohne. The materials for the project were donated by Acadia Landscaping, and the landscape design was donated by Michael Versen & Associates.
"The Helen Ross McNabb Center is grateful for the community's support of this project," said Jerry Vagnier, Helen Ross McNabb Center's President and CEO. "This project would not be possible without the financial support of Knox County, City of Knoxville, Tennessee Housing Development Agency and private donors. Homeless veterans in Knoxville are in need of affordable, permanent, supportive housing, and that is a gap the Center is trying to fill. We are proud to offer a place where veterans can build a community, receive support and live well."
The Helen Ross McNabb Center is a not-for-profit provider of behavioral health services in East Tennessee. As the Center celebrates 70 years of providing services to communities in East Tennessee, its mission remains the same; "Improving the lives of the people we serve."
In 1989, the Center began an effort to develop housing units for specific populations, including veterans. For almost a decade, national studies have shown that one out of every four people living in homelessness is a veteran. According to the U.S. Interagency Council on the Homeless, approximately 76% of homeless veterans experience alcohol, drug, and/ or mental health problems. A top priority for homeless veterans is safe and clean housing that offers a supportive and healing environment.
At the opening of the Helen Ross McNabb Center's Washington Oaks units, Many-Bears Grinder, Commissioner of Tennessee's Department of Veterans Affairs, called the opening of the complex "life changing" and said, "Two words should never come together: 'homeless' and 'veterans.'"

Francisco Kjolseth | The Salt Lake Tribune Democrat Peter Cooke, a retired Army Reserve officer, announces his candidacy for govenor at the Fort Douglas Museum on Wednesday, February 29, 2012.
Criticizing Gov. Gary Herbert for failing to lead on education and economic development, retired general Peter Cooke announced his candidacy for governor Wednesday.
"The lesson I've learned is that you can't sit back on your laurels," Cooke said. "If we have an education system that ranks as low as it does in almost every aspect … it just doesn't make sense how we can compete in a global economy."
Cooke is a retired two-star general, a businessman and real estate developer. He spent 39 years in the U.S. Army Reserve, retiring two years ago as commander of the 96th Regional Readiness Command, overseeing mobilization and deployment of reserve units across six Western states.
He has also spent 29 years in business and as a real estate developer. He said the combination is unique for a Democrat in Utah, and makes him a solid candidate in a state that hasn't elected a Democratic governor since 1980.
"Utahns don't necessarily vote on a partisan level. They vote for integrity and character and they vote for those who have demonstrated that they can make a difference," Cooke said. "I think I'm a different candidate. I'm an LDS Democrat. I'm a military person. I'm a small business person. I spent most of my career either defending this country or building small business. I think that's the backbone of Utah."
Cooke ran for office once before, losing a congressional bid in 1978. He was director of economic development under former Gov. Scott Matheson and said he learned there that people come to Utah because it's a great location and quality of life.
But he said that is threatened if the governor doesn't lead on education and the environment. He said instead of vilifying teachers, the governor needs to involve the community. And the governor needs to do more than just ask people to voluntarily pollute less.
"I think this is a crisis of leadership," Cooke said. "Without it, we're killing our environment and at the same time we're not educating our population and we're on a disastrous track."
Herbert, who also has three Republican challengers in the field, said he has been aggressive on education and pushed for more funding and believes the best way to get more money into Utah schools is to grow the economy, not raise taxes.
"I agree that we need to invest in education. I've probably been the leader in investing in education since I became the governor," Herbert said.
He said he has set the goal of two-thirds of Utahns having some post-high school degree by 2020 to ensure the state's economy stays robust.
"We're already doing it. We're doing it in a significantly successful way, in fact," Herbert said.
Cooke also said that having someone with his long record of military experience in office would be useful if Hill Air Force Base is threatened by a round of base closures.
Herbert said that he, too, is committed to Hill's survival.
Education • Bachelor's and master's degrees in political science from Utah State University.
Career • Spent 39 years in the Army Reserves, retiring at the rank of Major General and was commander of the 96th Regional Readiness Command.
• He has been a congressional staffer for U.S. Sen. Frank Moss and economic development director to Gov. Scott Matheson.
• For 29 years, he has been involved in affordable housing development, military projects and other real estate development.
Family • Married with five children. His wife, Heather, is a former assistant U.S. Attorney and member of the Utah Board of Pardons.
Hobbies • Enjoys skiing, cycling and sailing.

Q: Error convert BigDecimal to int I have the following situation:
List<BigDecimal> nvs = servSuperlivelloDAO.findNetworkVersion(year, daynumber);
int[] res = new int[nvs.size()];
for (int i = 0; i < nvs.size(); i++) {
    res[i] = nvs.get(i).intValue();
}

transforming BigDecimal to int gives this error:

java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.Integer cannot be cast to java.math.BigDecimal

I don't understand why I have a Integer in BigDecimal list.

A: i guess the problem is in the fist line
List<BigDecimal> nvs = servSuperlivelloDAO.findNetworkVersion(year, daynumber);

Try debugging the findnetworkVersion() method. And check the return type of that method. (is it really List of BigDecimal?).

A: I think that the DAO method : servSuperlivelloDAO.findNetworkVersion(year, daynumber) returned an int instead of a BigDecimal . Check it !
Here is an example where the BigDecimal was casted to int without any error:
package test;

import java.math.BigDecimal;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        List<BigDecimal>  list = new ArrayList<BigDecimal>();
        list.add(new BigDecimal(1));
        list.add(new BigDecimal(2));
        int arr[] =new int[list.size()];
        for(int i=0;i<list.size();i++)
        {
            arr[i] = list.get(i).intValue();
            System.out.println(arr[i]);
        }

    }
}

A: If Sasha's suggestion is correct, you can probably solve it by declaring nvs List<? extends Number> nvs (I haven't tested).

Recognize what derails you. It's not just about willpower, and it doesn't matter how much you know about healthy eating, sometimes life presents challenges that affect your choices. Whether it's the office candy bowl, stress, late night refrigerator raids, or your environment, learning to recognize these barriers to success will help you overcome them, and set you on a long path to healthy eating.
It's been tough day, and in the moment, it feels like ice cream will melt your cares away. While it may make you feel better temporarily, in the long-term, stress will more likely lead to extra pounds, which can cause more stress and anxiety, and more eating. It's a vicious cycle.
Get moving: Go for a walk, hit the gym, or head out for a bike ride. Exercise increases the feel-good hormone serotonin and busts your stress-hormone cortisol.
Call a friend who can make you laugh: Laughing has some of the same hormonal effects as exercise.
Breathe deep: Step outside and breathe in some fresh air, or give yourself a few minutes indoors to slow down and concentrate on your breathing.
Clock some quality time with your pillow: 7-8 hours per night.
Picture this: It's dinner time, and you sit down to eat with your cell phone by your side (time to read emails or check social media!) and the news on in the background. Before you know it, you look down and your plate is empty and you're headed to the kitchen to scoop up seconds. When you do other things while you're eating, you lose some awareness of what and how much you have eaten, which can lead to overeating.
Power down at mealtime: Go old school and enjoy your meal with someone special instead of your phone.
Get some (real) face time: Do something revolutionary and leave your desk at lunch to break bread with others. In the evenings make some meals a social activity and eat with friends or family at a table instead of in front of your TV on the couch.
Savor, Pause, Repeat: Even the simplest meal can be a pleasure if you take time to savor it. Use all of your senses to pay attention to your meal's colors, textures and aromas.
Does your coworker keep an irresistible jar of candy on her desk? Are there always leftover pastries sitting in the break room? Those occasional (or regular!) handfuls can really add up. If you find yourself mindlessly nibbling on office treats, use the following strategies to halt this habit.
Re-route yourself: Take a different route to the bathroom/meeting room/printer, etc. so you don't have to walk by your coworker's candy jar. Avoid the break room if that's where leftover meeting treats are left. If your boss orders snacks for a meeting, sit at the opposite end of the table or bring your own (healthy) snack. Out of sight, out of mind!
Keep a healthy stash: Store healthy snacks at your desk, and fill up on those instead of reaching for the leftover goodies from a lunch meeting.
Strategize: If you don't want to skip your regular afternoon coffee break with a friend or coworker, plan to order a coffee with lowfat milk (decaf is best in the afternoon so your sleep isn't interrupted) or an herbal tea. Skip the sugary drinks and cookie.
Lack of sleep can play a role in weight management and your food choices. Research shows that people who average only 5 or 6 hours of sleep per night are more likely to be overweight or obese than those who get 7-8 hours per night. When you don't get enough sleep, your hunger and satiety hormones may become off balance. Production of the hormone leptin, which tells your brain that you are full, decreases when you are sleep deprived. In addition the production of ghrelin, the hunger hormone, increases. This double whammy can leave you feeling hungrier and ultimately lead to eating more.
What you eat may affect the quality of your sleep too. Research suggests that people who eat more foods filled with fiber and fewer foods with saturated fat have better quality of sleep. So, sleep and diet are much more intertwined than you may think!

Let's Talk About - 'The Outsider Chronicles'
NIKO - Book One from 'The Outsider Chronicles' - By Kayti Nika Raet.
Blurb - Genre: YA, Fantasy, Dystopia, Post-Apocalyptic, Romance
One can live for several weeks without food but only a few days without water, a fact seventeen year old Niko is only too aware of as she struggles to provide for her two younger brothers in a post apocalyptic landscape where the rain burns like acid, food grows increasingly scarce and any Slither that crosses her path is laid low before it can sink its teeth into her.
Then one night everything she'd ever worked for and loved is consumed by a raging fire, leaving her with one brother missing, the other dead and herself gravely injured.
She's rescued by the Rose Circle, a rogue group of Slither hunters. They sneak her into Amaryllis City, a decadent metropolis where those able to pay the exorbitant entrance fee live a life of relative ease.
But for Niko, Amaryllis City is not the haven she grew up believing it would be and her unique abilities as a Slither hunter make her a particularly visible target to a city with hopes of experimentation, replication and other nasty bits.
All Niko ever wanted to do was find her baby brother, but that's proving to be harder than expected.
Check out this amazing review of 'Niko' by author of 'Melabeth the Vampire' - E.B. Hood.
HARM - Book Two of 'The Outsider Chronicles' By Kayti Nika Raet.
After a harrowing escape from Amaryllis City, Niko is forced to lay low. The people who want to use her unique genetics for their own ends are still out there and their reach is long.
After an emotional split with Ben and hiding deep in the slums she soon meets Songhay, a charismatic thief and his younger sister, Roosevelt. Together, they dodge violent gangs, roaming Slithers and the ever present threat of acid rain. Growing closer, Niko, along with Songhay soon form a rag-tag band of Slither hunters to keep the slums safe and the monsters at bay.
But then she discovers shocking information about her past that challenges everything she thought to be true about herself and those she loves.
Now she has to decide if she's going to stay safe in hiding or stand up to the lies and injustice swarming around her.
She was never one to lie low for long.
Lies and truth collide in the second book of the Out hronicles.
Excerpt - Chapter 1
Niko decided that if she had to escape the city over again she'd be sure to bring better shoes.
They'd missed the train, forcing the three of them, herself, her brother Jared, and Ben to walk over miles of acid ruined landscape to reach the city of Cherai. Well, Ben and Jared walked, her shoes – the aforementioned silly heels – had disintegrated after half a kilometer forcing Ben to carry her the rest of the way.
That was three days ago.
Ben said he didn't mind carrying her. He had said something absurd and used the word romantic. She supposed that for a few minutes, in a moderately safe environment, it could be considered romantic. But Outside, where they had to contend with bandits, wild dogs, and roaming Slithers, she preferred her love bubbles popped, her feet safely encased, and firmly on the ground.
Something grabbed her leg.
"Such pretty little feet," the old man crooned. He slid a leathery hand down her calf, the rough susurrus of skin contact only ending once he reached her ankle. He cradled her feet in his palm, cracked and dirty nails biting into her skin.
"So soft, so delicate. The acid will eat them in a moment." With her feet trapped between his paws he slowly brought it to his mouth, a maw of broken and yellowed teeth.
She struggled, a feeble attempt, she could barely move. Ben had carried her in his arms for most of the trip and to fall to the ground now would mean to lose a limb.
His tongue emerged, it was a thin brown thing with a pointed tip. Darker spots covered its expanse, like the tongue of a dog she'd once seen.
Revulsion roiled in her stomach. "Ben." She said sharply and his attention was finally caught by the commotion.
"Back off." He snapped.
The geezer dropped her foot. She shuddered, she wanted to reach down and wipe away the moisture of his hot and fetid breath but she had to settle for glaring at him.
"You want boots? Need boots?" As if he'd done nothing wrong the man stayed by their side caressing the garland of shoes around his neck. "Boots to protect tasty little girl toes. 250q. Cheap, cheap."
"We don't need none of your crap." Her little brother, Jared, said.
"They cheap." The old man reached out and tugged on her littlest toe. "Good boots. Brownie don't cheat cheap." He cackled, phlegm catching in his throat. "250q." Cheap, cheap."
Jared reared back his foot and kicked the salesman in the shin. Brownie cried out and nearly tumbled to the ground. "Weren't you listening to us the first time? Back off asshole."
"Jared!" She gasped in dismay. She was constantly admonishing him about swearing.
The geezer glared at her little brother, the whites of his eyes the color of piss. He spat at the boy's feet before hobbling away to accost another person standing in line.
She felt Ben's arms trembling with fatigue as they stood in line with the other hopeful applicants waiting to be accepted into the city.
And what a city it was. Cherai City stood in the center of the slums like a glorious crown perched on a mound of offal. It's black spires thrust themselves beyond the equally shaded wall. They glittered, resplendent in the noonday sun. Metal rods, removed from a dead metropolis, encircled the city. She could hear the ring of tools against metal as workers toiled on the cage, building ever higher as they prepared to enclose even the tallest of buildings within its dome.
"We made it," she said. She couldn't help but stare at the city, it commanded one's gaze.
Ben grunted softly as he adjusted his grip. Her injured hand banged into his chest and she grimaced. Though bandaged and splinted her broken finger still throbbed.
"The Black City has changed a lot since I left."
Niko gazed again at the metropolis. Black was the perfect nickname for it, even the metal of its cage was darkly hued.
"You used to live here?" Jared asked. Unlike her, Niko's brother appeared less than impressed with what he saw before him. He fiddled with his eye patch.
"Yep." The last letter popped past full lips. He seemed reluctant to say more but still Niko pressed. "Do they treat Circle members the same as Amaryllis City?"
He didn't know, he'd left before manifesting.
The line moved forward. They inched forward with it. She still saw the old geezer hovering nearby, his gaze fixated on her exposed brown toes.
He wasn't the only salesman to accost them, but none were as pushy or decrepit as he had been. They all tried to mask the desperation in their eyes behind quick and easy smiles. The sellers grew more insistent the closer they got to the city, hoping the buyer would break down and spare a q for a cheap – always so very cheap – bauble. But when a man brought a scarf from one he seemed to get accosted even more, as though they were predators sensing weakness.
"Ssst." A harsh whisper through gritted teeth. It almost sounded like a Slither, and a chill rippled down her spine.
The sound came from a young man. He was somewhere between hers and Ben's age, nineteen. if she had to hazard a guess. He sidled toward them, hands in his pockets, head dipped low. His eyes slid everywhere, missing nothing. His curls were closely cropped and his dark brown skin reminded her of Malik. Seeing him brought a pang to her heart, Malik didn't look like that anymore.
"I know an easy way to get into the city." He said in a low, fast murmur. His eyes caught hers for a brief second before they both flinched and looked away.
"No Officials. Only 500q, cheap, cheap."
"Not interested," Ben said, his voice cold. To show any weariness was to show a weakness that the salesmen would only press against.
Unlike the other sellers this one backed off quickly. "All right then, good luck." He disappeared into the slums. She released the tension she hadn't realized was accumulating in her shoulders.
Eventually, they'd advanced far enough down the line that they were only a few people away from entering the gate.
"You guys ready?" Ben whispered, the low rumble of his voice traveling through her whole body.
Niko nodded. She had their script memorized.
"Names?" Asked the bored Official when it was finally their turn.
"Wyatt and Hanna Reeves." Niko said. "And that's my brother Jaime Brennan."
"We just got married." Ben said cheerfully. Then he kissed her.
The Official was unimpressed. "That's nice." He monotoned, his demeanor never straying from its phlegmatic path. "Do you have the admittance fee?"
"There were bandits." Ben said, his golden skin still flushed from the attempted kiss. "They stole my darling's boots." He cast an injured look her way and Niko resisted the urge to roll her eyes, she should have know he wouldn't act naturally. My darling?
"And some of our money," he continued, "now we only have enough for two. But I can kill Slithers."
"That's nice." The Official yawned. "If you can only pay for two only two can enter. No exception." He'd heard too many tales of woe. Fabricated or not, they no longer aroused his sympathy.
Ben and Niko glanced at each other.
"I can kill Slithers." Ben said again, slower this time. In Amaryllis anyone who successfully proved their ability to slay Slithers were allowed inside, free of charge. The scale tipped heavily on the side of the monsters and the cities were eager to employ any means of leveling it. At least, that's what her experience in Amaryllis City had taught her, the fact that this Official was refusing Ben's expertise left her baffled.
OUTSIDER - Book Three of 'The Outsider Chronicles' By Kayti Nika Raet
Surrounded by hunger and degradation, the city of Cherai is a sparkling, opulent metropolis, a dazzling centrepiece in humanity's fight against Slithers and acid rain.
And at its heart, keeping everything shining and bright, are the Grey-Men, an oppressed workforce, drugged into submission.
But not for long.
Upon escaping her fate as a Grey-man, Niko is determined to free the whole lot, liberating all from their bondage.
Together with Ben, Songhay and the Gemini Gang, they plan to take control of the city.
To do that they must control the one thing no one can live without.
It only takes four days to die of thirst.
Niko sat on the floor in her room, the contents of the Phoenix folder spread out before her. She had flipped through it again and again, until the photos began to blur before her eyes and the words became nothing more than black smudges on white paper.
But no matter how many times she flipped through it, a tiny part of her hoping that in her absence the words had rearranged themselves into more pleasing sentences, she always found herself coming to the same photo.
She and her mother posed for the camera, her mother wore a white lab coat, the emblem of the Phoenix Corporation embroidered on one pocket. Niko herself was about five or six and stared unsmilingly at the camera.
On the back, in stark black ink, was a short sentence: Subject: H4N-11KO, 'Harmony'
Her parents were not her parents.
The people she always thought of as Rose and James Niko, mother and father to Harmony, Jared, and Shawn Niko, hard workers who were determined to make the best of their experience Outside and raise a family were not. In reality, they were Rose Gravelle and James Pleasant, leaders of a group of scientists who performed clandestine experiments on orphaned Outsider children – babies and toddlers mostly – in hopes of creating a new army of Slither hunters.
"Hey."
Niko looked up, yanked abruptly from her thoughts.
Songhay stood a few feet away. He no longer wore the dreary garb of a Grey-man: grey shirt, grey pants, grey expression. His eyes were alert and he wore a short sleeved shirt and worn jeans that clung close to his thighs.
He shifted awkwardly on bare feet as she stared at him. "You left your door open."
"It's okay." She shoved aside the folder, glad to be rid of it for a few minutes.
He sat down beside her, his back pressed against the side of the bed. He took the photograph of her and her mother out of her hands. It was the only thing she hadn't shoved away. Songhay had a similar photo, along with a child's bracelet that labeled him as property of the Phoenix Corporation. It had all burned a couple of weeks ago when a fire had swept through the slums.
He rubbed his thumb against the glossy surface. "You're a lot like her."
Niko scoffed.
"I mean it." His hand moved a bit and mid-morning sunlight danced across the photo's surface, blurring everything into a white glare. "You might be quieter and more intense but you're a lot like her. You always try to do what's right."
"You mean like experiment on children, and then when you're about to get caught, take one of them with you as you hide outside of the city for years and years pretending you love her as you observe her grow up, hopefully into the weapon you created her to be?" She was out of breath when she finished, her last few words strangled by a constricted throat.
Songhay stared at her, dark eyes set in dark skin and framed by even darker lashes. "Is that what you think? That they were just pretending?"
Niko pulled her knees up, tucking them under her chin. "I don't know." She traced absent patterns in the carpet with her fingers. "I don't know what to think anymore. Everything I thought was true, isn't. All this time I thought I had a family, and now I don't."
"You still have a family," Songhay said, "just because you aren't related doesn't mean Jared still isn't your brother. Roosevelt and I look nothing alike but she's still my sister and I still care about her."
He was right. Songhay and Roosevelt were exact opposites of each other, she was pale and freckled with gas grey eyes, while he was tall and dark with scars on his arms, but despite their different appearances it was obvious how close they were.
"Maybe they were just pretending," he said and even though it was only speculation it still sent a stab through her heart. "But on the last night we stayed at the Phoenix Corporation and everything was going crazy outside, many of the other scientists wanted to get rid of us, destroy their work and it was your parents who got us all out."
He handed her the photograph.
"You're not obligated to forgive them, they lied to you, and you had to find out everything like this, but they aren't as bad as you think they are."
She pressed her cheek against her knees, allowing the photo to join the others in the folder. "When did you get so wise?"
"Me?" He pressed a hand to his chest. "I was born this way."
She laughed.
"Maybe I should create an new family," she said. She looked at him. "Do you want to be a part of it?"
He hesitated for only a second. "Sure."
He wrapped an arm around her shoulder, drawing her in close. "And Roosevelt can be your sister."
"Cool," she murmured, "never had a sister before."
Someone knocked lightly on the door.
"Niko." Ben stood in the doorway. He carried two wooden swords. "You said you wanted to learn how to use the sword. You can't learn anything if you don't practice, and I can't teach anything without a student. You're late."
She glanced at the clock. He was right, almost fifteen minutes had passed. They didn't have much time before she had to visit Eva for even more lessons.
"I'll be there in a minute." She crouched forward, shoving all the papers and photos back into the folder.
Songhay rubbed the small of her back before standing up. "She's already a great fighter, why would she need more lessons from you?"
"She's an awesome fighter," Ben said as she placed the folder on the bed. He sounded a bit like a smug parent, but then again, he was her boyfriend, so some smugness was to be expected. "I'm helping her get better."
Songhay's gaze traveled to her then back to Ben. She had no idea what he was thinking.
"Let's fight."
Why Reading Bad Books May Actually Be... Good
- A Guest Post By Kayti Nika Raet.
If you read books on writing, one tip commonly offered is to read good books. Well written books, whether they are much lauded classics, or gems in your favorite genre, have a way of igniting the imagination. The premise behind reading them is that those well written works of art will influence you once it's time to craft your own tale.
But what about bad books?
All writers are voracious readers, and as such we all have, at some point in our lives, stumbled across a book that was just awful. Prose that makes your eyeballs bleed, situations that stretch the limits of plausibility (and you read vampire novels for goodness sake!), dialogue that just... eh. Make. It. Stop. Pleeeeease.
Either you muscle through it because you're determined to
finish everything you start, or you DNF and seriously begin to
reconsider your stance on book burning.
Whichever method you chose, in the end you usually try to scrub the
book out of your mind as fast as possible.
But, if you're an aspiring writer, those hours you spent trudging
through slush needn't go to waste.
Reading a poorly written book can make you more aware of the elements that go into crafting a good story (granted, it also makes you want to buy those zappy things from Men in Black).
Perhaps the pacing was off, the heroine, a sniveling wuss with no character arc, or a rocket randomly fired during a sex scene. Breaking down what doesn't work, figuring out why, and how it could be made better teaches you what pitfalls to avoid in your own writing.
Badly written books, while the bane of every reader's existence can also serve to highlight the cliches of your favorite genre and give you the impetus to subvert it. Or alternately, use it to your advantage.
They make you hold your own writing to a higher standard and encourage you to deliver the best book possible.
Sometimes they're as inspirational as a well written story.
At the very least, they serve as a great confidence booster, because if they can get published, what's stopping you?

Troy was recommended by numerous people and from my very first PT session he was completely professional and I could see why he's always fully booked! The thing I like most about my PT sessions is that every single one is different, so I never dread a session because I never know what to expect! I also love the fact that Troy advises what to eat but doesn't preach and judge when I tell him I eat chocolate for breakfast!"

During the 20th century, hat making industry which flourished for so long ultimately declined because new industries came into Luton. One of them was engineering. In 1905 Vauxhall came to town. Very soon Luton was known for car manufacturing. At the beginning of 20th-century gas cookers, meters, as well as ball bearings, were made in Luton. During the beginning of the twentieth-century chemical industries also started in Luton. During the end of 1930s Luton was a developing town and had less unemployment than other city and this is due to new industries. In the 20th century, Luton grew rapidly. In 1914 this town had a population of 50000, and by 1960s this population grew to over 130,000.

Malteser International strengthens emergency aid for Syrians fleeing Aleppo
Kilis, Turkey, 06/02/2016
Humanitarian situation set to worsen despite commitments at donor conference
Tens of thousands of people are fleeing towards the Turkish border from Aleppo, as the Syrian government forces advance. The Order of Malta's worldwide relief agency, Malteser International, is planning the distribution of tents and other aid for the newly arriving displaced people, and is already distributing blankets as a first measure. Government troops have recently taken control of the principal highway from Turkey to Aleppo, raising fears that the humanitarian aid that had had previously been transported to the embattled city over the border crossing at Oncupinar will cease. "This development affects us directly," said Sid Peruvemba, Vice Secretary General of Malteser International: "Our Syrian partner operates medical facilities in the city and region of Aleppo. The staff risk their lives every day to help people in need."
Despite promises of an increase in funding for the assistance of people affected by the Syrian Conflict made at a conference of donor nations in London on 4 February, there is little prospect of an improvement of conditions for people in the country. "The suspension of peace talks in Geneva means that the chance of a political solution to the conflict remains extremely small. All efforts need to be focused on making sure aid organizations have unhindered access to people in need. Conditions in the cites under siege are unbearable, and the intensification of the bombing with the involvement of the Russian air force has led to an increasing number of dead and wounded people in recent days and weeks" concluded Peruvemba.
Malteser International has been providing aid to people affected by the Syrian crisis since 2012. Malteser International provided medical treatment to almost 75,000 people in Syria during 2015 – operating a field hospital, a children's' hospital and two basic health units in the country through a local partner organization. Malteser International also works with Syrian refugees in Turkey, Lebanon and northern Iraq.
