I give thanks every day for the life I've created for myself and I want you to feel the same way.
I wasn't always this happy, in fact I was quite miserable. And that's what makes me feel so proud – that I was able to design the life I really wanted and the one I finally felt I deserved.
That's why I'm grateful every day.
If you feel like you just want to be happy, but don't know what to do in order to be happy – then it's time to change.
If you rush about filling your life with meaningless things in order to distract yourself from what's really going on – then it's time to change.
If you feel as though you just can't go on like this any longer – then it's time to change.
If you know there's something better out there for you – then it's time to change.
If you've stopped believing in yourself but know deep down inside that you deserve more – then it's soooo time to change lovely.
My change happened when I was 26. I had the huge realisation that if I didn't change I would probably not see my 30th birthday. That sounds rather dramatic doesn't it? But, hey – that's just me! You might not want such a drastic change. You might want to change something small to begin with – but once you start – it can become a whole new adventure.
I noticed what worked and what didn't and I did more of what worked and let go of what didn't.
And here's the result . . . .
I transformed my whole life from one of total misery and self destruction …. Into a simple, peaceful life that I love. I've found my soul-mate and created my dream business. Together we created our little family. I never take anything for granted now and I am grateful every day for what I have.
I want to share with you what I learned …..
There are 4 really important things that I did and if you want to see massive changes in your life, these 4 things are imperative ….
You need to take total and full responsibility for your life right here right now. You need to stop blaming your problems on other people. This was my biggest mistake. Running around blaming everyone else for my problems was what was keeping me unhappy (miserable in fact). This one strategy changed my whole life and my whole way of thinking right there.
You need to take MASSIVE ACTION!!!!!!!
You need to keep on adjusting and tweaking your life so that it stays the way you want it. This is a step people often miss and they end up coming back to me to go through all the steps again. We are all a 'work in progress' and need maintenance every day.
These are not easy steps to take and even harder when you're trying to do this all by yourself.
That's why I've added a STEP 5.
You need to ask for help. You need to find someone to support and guide you through the process. I had a lot of help from my therapist and coaches to get me to where I am today. I could maybe have done it all by myself, but it would probably have taken me 3 or 4 lifetimes to get there.
You need support from someone who has already done what you want to do. Someone who's been there and got the t-shirt. Someone who can share their experience with you.
The powerful changes that I underwent gave me a passion to help other people do the same in their lives and so I've been on a journey ever since learning and growing and developing my own skills so that I can do just that. I trained as a psychotherapist, hypnotherapist, NLP practitioner, counselling supervisor, reiki master and healer and have carried on adding to my skills and personal development ever since.
I now have a personal development business where I work with individuals on a one to one basic and with groups. I work in schools and colleges with young people teaching them self development. I work in companies helping them deal with stress and teaching relaxation. My clients call me The Feel Good Fairy because I make people feel good about themselves ~ I'm so honoured that this is my calling and that my gifts can enable others to create the life that they really want and deserve.
I can help you to create the life you are dreaming of right now, I can help you create the life you really deserve to be living. I know how desperately unhappy it feels to know that you're not living your REAL life and that you can't seem to help yourself move out of this place.
• Really appreciating and being grateful for what you are creating.

While No Paul George, Victor Oladipo Should Be Given A Chance with the Indiana Pacers
Victor Oladipo is going back to where it all started. Playing collegiate ball at Indiana University, he now finds himself as a member of the Indiana Pacers. Unfortunately, his return won't be smooth sailing.
Oladipo, who was traded last season from the Orlando Magic to the Oklahoma City Thunder, was part of a deal that sent Pacers superstar, Paul George, to OKC. The reaction to the trade has been lukewarm. As a result, Oladipo will arrive in Indiana with a lot of negative press.
It's no secret that Paul George wanted to leave Indiana. Some believe that the Pacers could have gotten more than Oladipo and second-year big man, Damontis Sabonis. Although, this is the reality for Pacers fans. And quite honestly, Oladipo isn't that bad of an addition.
While no Paul George, Oladipo can more than hold his own on the basketball court. As the 2nd overall pick in the 2013 NBA Draft, he's definitely got the pedigree of an NBA All-star, it just hasn't come to fruition.
Oladipo has shown much promise during his four-year career in the NBA. In three seasons with Orlando, Oladipo averaged 15.9 points per game, with a 17. 9 average during the 2014-15 season. Not All-NBA numbers by any means, he's still a worthwhile addition to any roster.
I suppose the big question is, "Can Victor Oladipo breakout in Indiana and earn himself All-Star bids?" It's entirely possible.
On Indiana, Oladipo is the main scorer. There aren't going to be many nights when the ball isn't in his hands for the key shots. Unlike OKC where Russell Westbrook was the main attraction, Oladipo has the Indiana Pacers role locked down.
Considering his time in Orlando was at the beginning of his career, there has definitely been a maturation process since that time. Also, being so close to his college basketball home, Oladipo will no doubt feel a little more comfortable in a familiar place.
Some say Indiana didn't get enough back for Paul George, and that may very well be the case. However, let's give Oladipo some time before we completely blow him off. It's not fair to him to come into Indiana and be ridiculed because he's not Paul George.
At the end of the day, this is what Indiana got back for PG13. It might not be what fans expected, but Victor Oladipo has a chance to prove he's every bit as good as the former Pacers All-star.

This is an interesting topic that I've been thinking about lately. How would your life/star wars interest be without the clone wars and the product/toys/merchandise that came with it?
For me, I remember going to see the clone wars in 2008 when it came out. i remember it fondly.. I was eleven at the time and lost a tooth during the movie due to a chewy sour strip lol. (some of you may not know that I am way younger than you) I believe I got the captain rex toy then and that was all until my interest in star wars was re-sparked in 2010. During Christmas time I gained interest in star wars and asked for the huge at-at toys. It amazed me so, I never thought that was possible! of course now I know better! After that the clone wars hooked me on clones and I collected from there, getting every one I could afford, and still trying to get the ones I missed today. So basically if it wasn't for the clone wars, I would have never gotten hooked back onto star wars.
Anyone else wish to share?
I stopped buying STAR WARS toys in the spring of 2003. There were a few exceptions over the years. I bought a dozen or so Revenge of the Sith figures and two or three STAR WARS Shop exclusives. When The Clone Wars debuted in 2008, the only toys I bought were the Target and Walmart exclusives, Commander Fox and the 501st Legion Clone Trooper. I kept those carded, and I eventually bought the Walmart-exclusive "Rookies" two-packs (Cody & Echo and Rex & Fives) to keep carded. My niece got hooked on TCW immediately, though, so I bought a lot of them for her from the very beginning.
As I kept buying them for her, they kept growing on me, and I finally started collecting the line for myself in January of 2011. I kept up with most of the new releases and went back, catching up on a lot of what I'd missed during the first couple of years. For me, The Clone Wars was what brought me back to being an active collector vs. an occasional, casual buyer of something here or there. Now that the line - and more importantly, the series - has ended, I'm back to where I was from 2003 - 2010. I'm sure I'll buy a couple of things when Episode VII is released in 2015, but I have more than enough "realistic" STAR WARS stuff. I could keep going for years with new animated-style releases, but I just don't have much desire for more movie-based toys.
I have plenty of other toys to collect, though, so it's not like much will be changing for me in terms of the hobby. I'll be spending less money, I suppose.
Little has changed for me since The Clone Wars series has ended, since Hasbro has not released much of anything to collect either way. I have been actively collecting Star Wars figures since 1997, when I saw an endcap at my local Albertson's stuffed with the orange-carded POTF2 figures. I was just going to get a few, for "old-time's sake." Well, that started it. I have been collecting consistently ever since.
When The Clone Wars movie came out in 2008, I started collecting the figures, alongside all of the realistic figures that I had been collecting since that day in the grocery store. And I would still be collecting them right now if Hasbro hadn't cancelled the line. So, I'll simply continue to collect the realistic figures...when Hasbro sees fit to release them, of course. For me, The Clone Wars was not as essential for collecting as it has been for some. As a child, I was weaned on the original trilogy, and I relished every prequel release. The Clone Wars was just another installment (albeit, non-canonical) in that space odyssey which has enraptured me ever since I saw the first film back in 1977. So, with its demise, I'll simply go back to my first love: the films.
So, with its demise, I'll simply go back to my first love: the films.
I'm sure I'll do a little of that when new characters are introduced, but more figures from the first six movies just don't do it for me. I'm sure there will be exceptions here and there, figures that are just too good to pass up, but they'll be few and far between. For example, the Admiral Ackbar you picked up for me is the only TVC figure I own.
Animated-style versions of OT characters are what I'd really love to buy, but that's the opposite of the direction the toys are taking.
...but more figures from the first six movies just don't do it for me.
I'm still in the market for "definitive" versions of core characters, and any and all backgrounders. I can't foresee myself getting tired of those for quite some time.
Excellent! I'd probably - and happily - buy one of each. But I have no doubt that you are correct in that Hasbro has no interest in pursuing any kind of animated sculpting from this point forward.
I was satisfied after Power of the Jedi and 2003 Saga.
Yeah, not until there's a new STAR WARS cartoon on the air, which I'm sure is at least two or (more likely) three years away from happening. Even then, I don't ever expect to see animated-style OT characters unless those characters appear in an animated series.
I remember going to midnight madness at TRU for the clone war release. And picking up one of each figure clone wars and non, also picking up the BMF Falcon, and AT-TE. Since then went thru a divorce and sold off much of my collection. I love Star Wars but just can't get back into it. The fact that it's the same figures over and over, and trying to find them has become a chore. I'm sure when the black line comes out I'll pick up a few and then when the new movies hit. The clone wars was fun but will always be an OT guy.

In North Macedonia, the most common religion is Eastern Orthodox Christianity, practiced mainly by ethnic Macedonians, Serbians, Vlakhs, and Romanis. The vast majority of the Eastern Orthodox in the country belong to the Macedonian Orthodox Church, which declared autocephaly from the Serbian Orthodox Church in 1967.

Muslims are the second-largest religious group with almost one-third of the population adhering to Islam, mainly from the country's Albanian, Roma, Turkish, Bosnian, and Macedonian Muslim population. There are also many other religious groups in North Macedonia, including Catholicism, Protestantism, and Judaism.

In 2011, through a survey carried out by Ipsos MORI, the religious composition of North Macedonia was found to be 70.7% Christian, divided in 69.6% Eastern Orthodox and 0.4% Catholics and Protestants, and 28.6% Muslim, with unaffiliated Muslims making up the 25.6%.

According to the 2021 official census, the religious composition of North Macedonia was 60.44% Christian of all denominations, 32.17% Muslim, 0.59% atheist or agnostic, and 7.26% other or undefined (predominantly orthodox Macedonians as per registries) .

Christianity

Eastern Orthodoxy

Eastern Orthodoxy has had a long history in North Macedonia, and remains the majority religion.  In 1019 the Archbishopric of Ohrid was established. In 1767 on order of the Sultan, the Archbishopric was abolished by the Turkish authorities and annexed to the Patriarchate of Constantinople. Throughout the 19th and 20th centuries there was an effort to reinstate the Archbishopric of Ohrid. The Macedonian Orthodox Church gained autonomy from the Serbian Orthodox Church in 1959 and declared the restoration of the Archbishopric of Ohrid. On July 19, 1967, the Macedonian Orthodox Church declared autocephaly from the Serbian Orthodox Church. Most Macedonians belong to the Orthodox faith. In 2001 the Church had about 1,350,000 adherents in North Macedonia. The Serbian Orthodox Church congregates primarily the ethnic Macedonian Serbs.

Catholicism

In 2001 the Holy See established the Byzantine Catholic Apostolic Exarchate of Macedonia. Currently, members of the Macedonian Catholic Church number about 11,266. It is a Byzantine Rite sui juris particular church in full communion with Pope and the rest of the Catholic Church, alongside the Eastern Catholic Churches and uses Macedonian in the liturgy. The census of 2021 registered 6.746 Catholics.

Protestantism

There are a number of Protestants in North Macedonia. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, American missionaries converted villages in the Strumica-Petrich region to Methodism, a faith still practiced. There is also a small community of Macedonian Baptists which has existed since 1928.

Islam

Islam has had a significant influence in North Macedonia since the Ottoman conquests in the 14th and 15th centuries. Many Turks settled in the region of Macedonia and introduced aspects of Islamic culture. Most Albanians and some ethnic Macedonians converted to Islam. These Macedonian Muslims or Torbeši generally retained their Macedonian culture and customs while many were assimilated as Turks. By the 19th Century most of the cities were primarily populated by Muslims. The Šarena Džamija in Tetovo is a legacy of the country's Ottoman past. In 2002, Muslims form approximately 33.33% of the nation's total population. According to the census of 2021, the share of Muslims was 32.17% of the total (resident) population, which was slightly lower compared to 33.33% in the census of 2002.

Judaism

Jews had been present when the region now called the Republic of North Macedonia was under Roman rule in the second century AD. The population was decimated by the Crusades, but rose again following the immigration of Sephardic Jews under the Ottoman Empire. In the Second World War, North Macedonia was occupied by Bulgaria, an Axis power, and the Jews were sent to concentration camps. As in the rest of the Balkans, the Holocaust and immigration to Israel means that North Macedonia now has a much smaller Jewish community, numbering roughly 200. It is mainly based in the capital, Skopje, and has no functioning synagogue. The census of 2021 registred 74 "Members of the Jewish (Moses) community", with Jewish men forming the majority of this community (42 males compared to 32 females).

Religious freedom

The laws of North Macedonia prohibit religious discrimination and provide for equal rights for all citizens regardless religious belief, and people generally have the freedom to practice their religion without disruption. Religious organizations have complained about unfair treatment by the government around questions of building permits and property restitutions. There have been incidences of vandalism and theft against religious buildings.

Croswell's zip code is 48422. I lived in town from my infancy until the folks moved to a new-built home on land my grandparent's gave them south of Lexington. I saw my first-ever movie in a theater there, Mary Poppins, when it was then in 'first run' theaters. That had to be very shortly before the place closed. I also recall the folks taking me for one or two more movies, mostly WW II flicks with themes considered a little too grown-up for a 4-year-old, and when somebody'd get killed or whatever, my Dad who sat on one side of me and my mother on the other, would both cover my eyes, thinking that kept me from seeing.
I spent a whole lot of those movies enduring that 'parental censorship'. But war flicks of every kind remain my favorite to this very day. That's probably what also led to a career in the military from '81-'96. Fond memories of that place, but I recall being really disappointed when it became an auto parts store, because that meant I'd no longer be able to get popcorn there!.
I worked there a couple of times changing carbon arcs in the projector. When I was there the movie showing was The days of Wine and Roses This would have been early 60's and the Teslucks were the owners.
My cousin just acquired the old Maxine theater sign that was above the screen. We can see writing under the paint in the scrolls. On the left side we have determined that it says TALKING : SINGING : DANCING. We can't quite make out what it says on the right side scroll. We think it says HEAR : ______ YOU : ______ SEE ?? Any ideas of what it could say would be appreciated.
I used to work there, changing the marquis and taking tickets in the 1950''s, maybe 1954-55. I worked with a girl named Shirley Labadie. She sold tickets. Sam Burrows was owner and manager. There was no balcony when I was there.
My brother, George Benko, was part owner with Charlie Whitebread.
It is at 91 North Howard Avenue.
The Maxine opened July 5, 1920. The first film shown there was Romance and Arabella. It sat 650 people. Theres conflicting memories with town elders as if it had a balcony or not. It probably did.
I am the proud owner of one of the pull chain urinals from the Maxine.
The last owners were the Teslucks. Old man Tesluck ran adult films there at night. The Maxine closed October 31, 1964. It was named after the builder, William Carter's daughter, Maxine.
August 1958 - Bill Clark is taking over buying for and booking of films for Alex Dubovenko's Almont Theatre at Almont and for the two run by the Tesluck family, the Yale at Yale and Maxine at Croswell.
The last movie shown there was The Beatles A Hard Days Night.
Charles Whitebread ran the maxine for a number of years for owners william carter, sam burows, and the last owners, a mr. and mrs. duncan.
The operator from about 1935 to its closing in 1965 was Charles Whitebread. He was the manager and head projectionist, however, he didnt own it. He was also the postmaster in Croswell.

'She's not replaceable' - Medical community in Mandeville mourns death of Dr Suzanna Roye from swine flu
Published:Tuesday | February 23, 2016 | 12:00 AMAndre Poyser
Medical practitioners in Mandeville are still trying to come to grips with Dr Suzanna Roye's death from complications with swine flu.
Described as a world-class physician, the family doctor touched the lives of not only her many patients who adored her but also her colleagues who held her in high esteem.
"She was one of those exceptional doctors. In medicine, you are lucky if you come across someone who you can call a mother. It's a miracle when you can find someone like that who fits the role of a super mother," said Dr Paul Miller, a resident in obstetrics and gynaecology at the Mandeville Regional Hospital.
"When I first met her, she was my superior, and she practically held our hands. She was so helpful and always gentle, and the extent to which she would go for her patients - these are the things that stand out about her," he added.
Roye, who was 50 years old, had been admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at the University Hospital of the West Indies (UHWI) after being transferred from Mandeville. She was believed to have been suffering from the HINI virus (swine flu).
Hospital sources say a second female doctor admitted to the ICU at the UHWI was responding to treatment.
MEDICAL CAREER
Originally trained as a medical technologist, Roye later received a scholarship to study medicine in Russia.
Upon her return to Jamaica, she set up a private family practice and served at the Mandeville Regional Hospital until the time of her death.
"She was a maestro. She had spent quite a bit of time in obstetrics and gynaecology, and she made an indelible mark. And then she moved to the Accident and Emergency (A&E) Department where, until the time of her death, she was one of the stellar doctors in A&E. Believe me when I tell you that she is not replaceable," Miller added.
SUPERB DOCTOR
According to Miller, Roye's flexibility in the areas of A&E and obstetrics and gynaecology distinguished her as a medical doctor.
"She was a superb doctor, exceptional skills. Her skill level was so wide, but more important, she was just such an exceptional person," he said.
Dr Hugh Ingram, who collaborated with Roye in private practice, described her as a caring doctor.
"She was loved by her patients, a dedicated doctor, and she was very hard-working and very highly respected," he said.

Many businesses can not function without hiring various people of different talents. Hiring enables a business to grow, but it also exposes it to potential risk. Employment practices liability insurance can help protect businesses from many of the risks that come with interviewing and hiring employees.
Employment practice liability coverage is a unique commercial liability coverage. Being a liability coverage, it will most likely help pay for legal costs and settlements arising from covered claims.
What Sorts of Claims Are Covered by EPLI Policies?
The exact issues that a policy will cover depend on that policy's terms and conditions. Many policies will cover items that aren't mentioned here, and an informed insurance agent can explain exactly what a specific EPLI policy will offer protection for.
What New Hampshire Businesses is an EPLI Policy Right For?
Most businesses in New Hampshire that already or soon will have employees should consider getting an employment practices liability policy. Regardless of whether a business has one employee or thousands, the business could be named in an employment-related lawsuit. These can be expensive lawsuits for businesses to defend themselves against and settle.
Does Following All Employment Laws Protect Businesses Render an EPLI Policy Unnecessary?
While all businesses should follow every applicable employment law and regulation, doing so doesn't necessarily eliminate the need for an employment practices liability policy. Even if a business follows all regulations, it can still be named in an expensive employment lawsuit. Having insurance in place could greatly defray the associated legal costs.
When is the Right Time to Get an Employment Practices Liability Policy?
In general, businesses should have an employment practices liability policy in place as soon as they begin looking for employees. Coverage should then be maintained for as long as the business continues to employ workers. Purchasing coverage prior to hiring may extend coverage to hiring-related claims, and keeping coverage in place ensures there aren't any gaps in protection.
Businesses that have employees and don't already have an employment practices liability policy in place should talk with an experienced insurance agent. A knowledgeable agent will be able to recommend a policy and be able to help with the application process.
Are Workers Compensation and Employment Practices Liability Insurance the Same?
Workers compensation and employment practices liability policies both offer coverage for incidents involving employees, but the protections provided are very different. Workers compensation usually covers job-related injuries and illnesses. Employment practices liability policies typically cover employer-employee issues.
How Can Businesses in New Hampshire Get Employment Practices Liability Insurance?
For help finding employment practices liability insurance that's suited to your New Hampshire business' needs, contact HPM Insurance. Our experienced and independent insurance agents have the expertise needed to help you find the right policy. Since we're an independent agency, our team works with some of the best companies providing EPLI protection.

Man sues New Hampshire Lottery over losing scratch-off ticket News Story

Renee Taylor's 'My Life on a Diet' is really more about a life in showbiz
By: JAY LUSTIG | November 29, 2019
JEREMY DANIEL
Renee Taylor stars in "My Life on a Diet," which the George Street Playhouse is presenting at the New Brunswick Performing Arts Center through Dec. 15.
Renée Taylor shows some photographs of herself early in her autobiographical one-woman show, "My Life on a Diet," which the George Street Playhouse is presenting at the New Brunswick Performing Arts Center through Dec. 15.
"This is me in my 80s," she says of one, before deadpanning: "But I can play older."
Moments later, she describes herself as a "food tramp … that is, someone who eats around."
Taylor, now 86, published a memoir, "My Life on a Diet: Confessions of a Hollywood Diet Junkie," in 1986, and she and her late husband, Joe Bologna, adapted it into this multimedia monologue; Taylor has been presenting it at various locations for the last six years or so. Bologna, who died in 2017, co-wrote it and is still credited as its director.
As you might suspect from the two quotes above, this show is not a deeply introspective exploration of the psychic toll that the pressure for an actress to be thin has taken on Taylor (who describes herself as zaftig). She talks about the many diets she has undertaken, but mostly with a shrug and/or a wisecrack.
Taylor sits at a desk for virtually the entire show, talking, while old photos and, at times, diet guidelines are shown on a screen above her.
It never quite feels like she's just sitting in a room with you, telling stories: She often sounds a bit rigid as she delivers her lines, and never really achieves a casual, naturalistic flow. But that doesn't really matter when you've lived a life as rich as hers, and have got some amusing things to say about just about everything.
She doesn't go into depth about her marriage to Bologna. Sure, she tells a few stories about him. But that 52-year union (which was both personal and professional: They often worked together) doesn't really take up much space in the production.
She focuses, instead, on her early years as a struggling actress, and the many famous actors and other celebrities she met then, and later: Her friendships with Marilyn Monroe, Grace Kelly and Barbra Streisand; her years spent studying with Method Acting guru Lee Strasberg; her flirtation with Marlon Brando. Not to mention encounters with Jerry Lewis and Lenny Bruce and Betty Grable … the list goes on and on.
One anecdote is about auditioning for the 1956 Tennessee Williams-written movie, "Baby Doll." A Bronx native, she affected a Southern accent to give herself a better shot at the role. "Excuse me," Williams interrupted. "What part of New York are you from?"
She paints memorable sketches of her parents, too, and, of course, spends a little time on the role that probably made her most famous: Sylvia Fine, the mother of the main character in the hit sitcom, "The Nanny," in the '90s.
Taylor has lived too much life to be able to fit it all into a 90-minute, intermission-less play. But "My Life on a Diet" is still fun, breezy and reliably entertaining — in dieting terminology, it will satisfy you without really filling you up — as well as absolute catnip for those who love insiders' Hollywood stories.

French counter-terrorism chief says TWO Islamist plots were thwarted in 2020, though FIVE attacks weren't prevented — RT World News
Authorities foiled two Islamist plots last year, France's top counter-terrorism official has said. The country suffered five high-profile terrorist attacks in 2020, including the murder of Samuel Paty and the stabbing in Nice.
"Two Sunni Islamist terrorist attacks were thwarted in 2020," National Coordinator for Intelligence and Counter-Terrorism Laurent Nunez told Europe 1 radio station, adding that 33 Islamist terrorist plots had been foiled in France since 2017.
This suggests the number of prevented attacks in 2020 was smaller than the number of terrorist attacks that had occurred.
On April 4, a knifeman killed two people and wounded five in Romans-sur-Isere in the southeastern part of the country. A few weeks later, a terrorist rammed his vehicle into police officers outside Paris, injuring three. Both incidents took place in the middle a nationwide lockdown against Covid-19.
In September, a man stabbed two people outside the former Paris office of satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, which had published cartoons of Prophet Mohammed. On October 16, a terrorist of Chechen origin beheaded teacher Samuel Paty for having shown his class a cartoon of Mohammed during a lesson on freedom of speech. Several weeks later, three people were killed in a stabbing attack inside a Catholic church in Nice.
These attacks prompted the government to crack down on mosques and Muslim NGOs suspected of promoting radical views. Nunez said Islamist terrorism remains a "priority threat" that is growing "increasingly difficult to detect." He explained that the attacks coming from abroad are "less likely" because Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) has become "very weak" in the Middle East.
"But we stay extremely vigilant. Islamic State is reorganizing itself to act in a clandestine manner."
Nunez said five attacks by far-right groups were thwarted since 2017, and he is concerned about the "rise of [white] supremacists and survivalists."
Last month, France's Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin thanked police for busting a cell of "violent ultra-left activists" who were suspected of planning terrorist actions.

I was up early this morning because I had arranged to speak with my friend Ange on Facetime at 11.30 UK time; that is 6.30 here… And the internet had disappeared in our apartment!
I made my down to café Ole at the marina, hopeful full connection would be available…!
Everywhere was very quiet… Good Friday, a national holiday. I arrived at the deserted marina, there was just one guy picking up the fallen leaves in the car park, otherwise not a soul about.
And all throughout my life, I have loved getting up early, seeing the sun rise. It has always given me the joyous feeling of possibility… light arriving out of the dark… I've seen it happen, that wonderful space where the yin, yang balance hangs in perfect harmony beyond separation, beyond the swings of pain and pleasure.
Today as I settled at a table alone in Ole, ready to chat to Ange, I could feel the joyous rising of my spirit in celebration of the dawning of another new day and all the possibility ahead of me….
And then didn't, we had a plan to run ten miles together, and so I made my way across the car park, turned left to head up the road for home…. And coming towards me was Anadi !
And so create a very firm foundation….

This Florida City Will Pay 65 Bitcoins to Get Files Back
Network Management, Inc. Blog Security
Florida's Atlantic coast is a destination for millions of visitors each year. One visitor is costing a coastal city a pretty penny. Riviera Beach, a small city just north of West Palm Beach, has been hit with a major ransomware attack. Today, we'll tell you how it came to be that the small beach city would make dubious history by paying what is the largest ransomware payout in the short history of these attacks.
Inundated with ransomware for the past three weeks after one city employee clicked on a malicious link, the Riviera Beach's city council voted unanimously to pay the 65 Bitcoin price tag to get their systems and data unencrypted. This was after they had already voted to spend almost $1 million to buy all new hardware. The city council believed that after the situations that have played out in other municipalities--where millions of dollars were spent avoiding ransomware payments--that their best recourse to recover their data was to pay the hacker's demands.
The problems started almost immediately after a city employee fell for a phishing email. The city email system was unavailable, and its 911 dispatchers didn't have access to computing systems that are necessary for prompt emergency response. This led to large sections of the city's computing infrastructure becoming unavailable.
Previous instances where ransomware victimized municipal computing infrastructure, like SamSam attacks in Atlanta, GA; Newark, NJ; and Sarasota, FL, had been so devastating to the workings of their local governments that Riviera Beach's council had plenty of information to make their decision by. The FBI, The Department of Homeland Security, and the U.S. Secret Service are all investigating the Riviera Beach attack, but for now, no answers are available.
Typically, it is advised that ransomware victims do not pay the ransom, since it provides the experience and resources to hackers to continue to conduct acts of cybercrime; and, because there is no guarantee that hackers will stay true to their word and decrypt the files once the ransom has been paid.
Ransomware is a growing problem for municipalities and businesses, alike. For more information about ransomware, and the litany of threats facing your network each day, subscribe to our blog.

Q: Excel Index Match with If Criteria I have 2 excel workbooks like so:
Workbook1
A (Delivery Date)     B  (Item Code)        C (Expected Delivery quantity)     D (Received Stock)
01/11/2016            412                   100                        0
31/10/2016            234                   200                        200
02/11/2016            111                   10                         6

Workbook 2
A (Item Code)        B (Status)
412                  Delivery expected 01/11/2016
234                  Delivered
111                  Insufficient Stock Delivered

I am trying to run an excel formula in column B of workbook2 which will update the user on the status of deliveries where the item code matches.
Workbook 1 gives an expected delivery date for each item in column A, and an expected quantity of delivered items in COlumn C.
I want to create an If formula to put in column B in workbook 2, which will check if the expected quantity for each item (column C) matches the received stock in column D.
If the received stock is more or matches the expected delivery quantity, i want the status to say 'Delivered'.
If the received stock is less than the expected delivery quantity then i want the status to say Insufficient Stock delivered.
If the received stock is 0, i want the status to say 'Delivery Expected' and to pull through the delivery date from column A. So you would get 'Delivery Expected 01/11/2016'.
So far i am trying to put together an if statement like so:
=IF('[workbook1.xlsm]Sheet1'!$D$1:$D$10000=0,"Delivery Due"&Index('[workbook1.xlsm]Sheet1'!$A$1:$A$10000',Match(B1,'[workbook1.xlsm]Sheet1'!$B$1:$B$10000),0),IF('[workbook1.xlsm]Sheet1'!$D$1:$D$10000<'[workbook1.xlsm]Sheet1'!$C$1:$C$10000,"Insufficient Stock Deliverd","Delivered")

My formula does not work and i get a #Value Error. please can someone show me where i am going wrong and how i can achieve my final result?

A: It's a quite long formula.
=IF(INDEX([WorkBook1.xlsm]Sheet1!A:D,MATCH(A2,[WorkBook1.xlsm]Sheet1!B:B,0),3)=INDEX([WorkBook1.xlsm]Sheet1!A:D,MATCH(A2,[WorkBook1.xlsm]Sheet1!B:B,0),4),"Delivered",IF(0=INDEX([WorkBook1.xlsm]Sheet1!A:D,MATCH(A2,[WorkBook1.xlsm]Sheet1!B:B,0),4),CONCATENATE("Delivery Expected ",TEXT(INDEX([WorkBook1.xlsm]Sheet1!A:D,MATCH(A2,[WorkBook1.xlsm]Sheet1!B:B,0),1),"DD/MM/YYYY")),IF(INDEX([WorkBook1.xlsm]Sheet1!A:D,MATCH(A2,[WorkBook1.xlsm]Sheet1!B:B,0),3)>INDEX([WorkBook1.xlsm]Sheet1!A:D,MATCH(A2,[WorkBook1.xlsm]Sheet1!B:B,0),4),"Insufficient Stock Delivered",)))

Go to name manager and assign this formula to any name like "Status"
and all the cells from B2 to B1000 will have only =status as formula.
Let me know if it works.

Golden Lions win thrilling Coca-Cola Craven Week cat fight
Jul 11 • Craven Week, General News, School • 2354 Views • No Comments on Golden Lions win thrilling Coca-Cola Craven Week cat fight
The Golden Lions on Thursday produced a thrilling 20-19 victory on the penultimate day of the Coca-Cola Craven Week to establish themselves as one of the top teams in the tournament.
The victory marked their second in this the 50th edition of this prestigious event, a feat only four teams achieved, ahead of the final day's play on Saturday. The other unbeaten teams were Western Province, Border and Zimbabwe.
SWD also showed their class in a thrilling day's action as they thumped Eastern Province 40-14 after running in an impressive six tries to show their character after going down 34-27 against the Lions on Tuesday.
The clash between the Johannesburg side and Free State was a tight affair from the outset, with the forwards delivering physical performances up-front, which was balanced by entertaining running rugby by the backs. Such was the tight tussle in the first half, only one try was scored by Lions centre Fernando Kermis, with the rest of the points scored compliments of penalties by Free State centre Stephen Rautenbach and his Johannesburg counterpart Erwin Harris, which handed the Lions a narrow 11-9 lead.
The Gauteng-based team, however, came out firing in the second half and created a few try-scoring chances, but they were denied by the resilient Free State defence. This forced them to settle for another penalty for their 14-9 lead. The Bloemfontein side, however, hit back with a well-deserved try after applying pressure on attack and kept the score-board ticking with penalties to sneak into a 19-14 lead. But this did not dampen the Lions' spirits as they slotted over two penalties in the last 10 minutes to seal the victory.
This win is expected to book the team a place in the grand finale of the tournament on Saturday against either Western Province or Border.
SWD, meanwhile, played smart rugby against Eastern Province, which set them up for their 40-14 victory.
The George team camped in Eastern Province's half for a large part of the first 35 minutes and played innovative attacking rugby thanks to their instinctive flyhalf Dewald Human. Left wing Duhan van der Merwe also showed his class and speed as he ran in two tries in the first half to push his team into a 14-0 lead. SWD continued their territorial domination in the second half, and wasted no time inflating their score thanks to a skip pass by Human to Donavan van der Berg for their third try and a 21-0 lead.
Eastern Province, however, hit back with a try under the posts after stringing together several phases and crossed the chalk for another try a few minutes later. But this proved insignificant as SWD continued their fine form on attack with four second-half tries to cancel out EP's efforts.
In other matches the Griffons defeated Eastern Province Country Districts 26-20, the Valke thumped Griquas Country Districts 44-24 and the Leopards smashed Border Country Districts 64-0.
The competing 20 teams will enjoy a day off on Friday and to relax ahead of Saturday's matches.
Meanwhile Western Province's Herschel Jantjies and Rikus Bothma were both cleared to play in their final match after being cited on Wednesday for dangerous tackles, meaning they should be able to field their strongest side for Saturday's clash.

Despite stiff competition from Sonam Kapoor and Anil Kapoor's Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga, the film is still holding its own at the box office.
However, Manikarnika became a victim to piracy, as it was leaked online by infamous piracy website TamilRockers. With Manikarnika: The Queen Of Jhansi being made available for free downloads.
Manikarnika: The Queen Of Jhansi revolves around Rani Laxmibai, who fought against the East India Company and the British to prevent her kingdom of Jhansi from being usurped. Critics have unanimously hailed Kangana Ranaut's portrayal of the warrior queen, although the film itself has received mixed reviews.
Manikarnika: The Queen Of Jhansi marks Kangana's foray into direction. She took over the reins from Krish, who was originally meant to be the solo director. However, this has caused enough furore after the release of the film. Krish has accused Kangana of modifying the script. He claimed in an explosive interview that she "wanted everything to herself" and "blatantly reduced" the length of her co-stars' parts. The actress lashed out saying that people are trying to destroy the film.

I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Blues In My Blood, from Tiffany Pollack & Eric Johanson and I really like it. Opening with title track, Blues In My Blood with it's fat acoustic slide work, courtesy of Eric Johanson, this track sets a smoky stage for the powerful vocal lead of Tiffany Pollack. With Jack Miele on bass and percussion, Brentt Arcement on drums, organ and piano this is a super opener. Memories To Forget has a chilling guitar solo laid over a warm melody, lead vocal primarily by Johanson, haunting harmonica by Johnny Sansone and excellent drum accent by Acrement. Pollack demonstrated over and again the richness of her voice and her excellent blues phrasing. On ballad, Michael, she is rock solid and Johanson's amplified resonator body guitar work is really nice. A cover of Keith and Mick's No Expectations really flows nicely with Johanson back at the helm with ample harmony by Pollack. Very nice. Shuffle track, Do I Move You is another really nice showcase for Pollack's vocals with poise and style. Johanson shows a really nice feel for straight blues guitar lead and with Phil Wang on bass and strong organ and piano work by John Gros this track sails. Pollack and Johanson venture deeper into blues rock on Slave Of Tomorrow with a super groove laid down by Miele and Arcement. Johanson's vocals are excellent and I love the lumbering pace. Excellent! Get Lost With Me is the absolute radio track on the release (except it's almost 5 minutes long) with a great Ray Charles feel and solid lead vocal and aggressive blues guitar riffs by Johanson. Super nice. Wrapping the release is an absolutely wonderful cover of Peter Seeger's If I Had A Hammer. Totally destructuring the original, putting it back together with a strong bottom line, organ excellent vocals and soulful guitar, this track is such an excellent closer. If you wonder if I liked this release...read the review again!

Underclassman of The Month – Avery Ali
Abdullah Hashimi, Contributor
Congratulations to Avery Ali for being chosen as the Underclassman of the Month at FDR! Avery enjoys his time at FDR, despite all the limitations on activities due to Covid. Avery believes that the staff of FDR, and his fellow peers, make the most out of the situation we are all in. The inclusiveness and interaction FDR allows the students to have, while maintaining their good health/safety, is something he enjoys about the school.
Physics and AP World History are both subjects that Avery loves at FDR. He has always loved science and wants to pursue a career in that field when he gets older. Physics, specifically, includes various topics he loves- like equations, close reading, and interpreting problems in order to find a resolution. He says it's much like AP US History. He has to utilize his prior knowledge to assess questions that are given to him. One of the reasons he loves AP World so much is because Mr. Bernardi is an advocate for inclusiveness in the classroom. The lessons are interactive as well as entertaining.
Avery used to be a part of the Football team, but sadly, right as the season started, he broke his finger. He initially joined the team, because he had a friend on the team who thought it would be fun if they played together. Avery is also a part of the Undefeated Wrestling team with his record being 3-0 in the PSAL and 4-2 in New York City. Avery joined the Wrestling team, because he has been doing MMA for the last five years and thought wrestling could make a great addition to his skills. Besides sports, he is a part of MBK (My Brother's Keeper). In fact, he is actually the president of MBK! He joined because of a teacher he had last year during remote learning, Mrs. Parkinson. She constantly told him his mind would make an impact there, and eventually near the end of the first remote semester, he took her advice.
A piece of advice Avery has for any newcomer at FDR is to be open and patient. He says that if you are too conservative, you will miss out on opportunities and memories that are just waiting to be made. He highlights the importance of patience and timing. He speaks of not rushing everything you want to achieve in life, and how time is not something you can get back. He understands that high school is a time for self-discovery and understanding one's self. At the end of the day, he wants everyone to reach for what they want! Avery says to take those risks now, so you experience the luxury of the rewards later. As for his thoughts on why he felt he was chosen for Underclassmen of the Month, he credits this to someone simply believing in his ability to achieve and excel at what he does best. He says this someone probably expected the best from him academically, socially, and athletically. Every day he brings the same energy, always trying to push himself to learn and improve. Avery is a very dedicated and smart young man. The New Dealer is proud to name him the Underclassman of the Month.
Congratulations Avery!

This is the sixteenth year that a joint committee of the Institution of Surveyors NSW and the Association of Consulting Surveyors NSW have organised awards to recognise the excellent achievements of both individuals and organisations engaged in the surveying and spatial information industry across New South Wales.
The link below leads to the October 2013 edition of the surveying industry magazine 'Azimuth' where the winners of various categories are noted.
This year, Summit Geomatic submitted an entry in the Cadastral Surveying and Land Titling Category for subdivision work at Warriewood Brook Retirement Village.
Anglican Retirement Villages (ARV) acquired the site known as 6-14 Macpherson Street Warriewood for the purpose of developing the site for a retirement village in 2001. The site was originally occupied by market gardens, greenhouses and an assortment of sheds and at this time was still essentially semi-rural in character.
Summit Geomatic was commissioned to undertake a detailed topographic survey of the site including detailed location of the existing creek which formed the rear boundary and adjacent road reserves.
This survey revealed that the current position of the creek at the rear of the property and that of the original position of the creek as shown on the title diagram varied substantially. Further investigation and discussions with adjacent owners revealed that the original creek had been re-aligned in the 1950's and 60's by dredge line to reduce the impact of local flooding. The original creek was largely obliterated in this process.
As the creek had been radically altered by unnatural means the boundary remained in the original creek position as it stood prior to the dredging.
This left a significant portion of the neighbours land on the 'wrong' side of the creek. Our client made the decision to acquire this land from the neighbour to facilitate the proposed development and to alleviate concerns over dedication of land to council for a future reserve adjacent to the creek.
We have recently upgraded our Leica 1200 GPS units to connect with CORSnet-NSW.
CORSnet-NSW is a network of permanent Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) tracking stations which improve the accuracy of satellite positioning for users in NSW.
The outcome for our clients is a huge boost in efficiency when coordinating surveys to Map Grid of Australia (MGA) and Australian Height Datum (AHD). We are now able to achieve accurate position and height in real time across most populated areas of NSW. Utilising correct techniques our surveyors can quickly determine a position in world coordinates to within 10-20mm!

Caroline Lind
Hometown: Greensboro, NC, USA
Career Highlights: Lind makes her second Olympic appearance this summer as the Americans go for their second consecutive gold medal in the eights. Lind was part of the crew in Beijing that finished first and earned the distinction of being the world rowing female crew of the year. The native of Greensboro, N.C., also helped the U.S. set a world record (5:54.17) in the eights in May at a World Cup event, and was on the crew that won the 2011 world championships. Lind, who started rowing in 2000 at Phillips Academy in Andover, Mass., also earned gold in the eights at the worlds in 2006 - a world record at Eton Gorney - as well as 2007 and 2009. While a senior at Princeton, Lind won the varsity eights at the 2006 NCAA championship. She finished second in that event in 2005 and fourth in 2004. Lind's father Fred played basketball for Duke, graduating in 1969.


The World Social Forum first met in 2001. Leading members of the global movement for social and economic justice organized the Forum, in response to the World Economic Forum meeting in Davos, Switzerland. In 2001, and the following two years, the World Social Forum was held in Porto Alegre, Brazil. The organizers of the World Social Forum make a point of convening the meeting in the global South, underscoring their view that this region should take leadership in the movement for progressive global social and economic policy.
This Agence Global piece describes how the World Social Forum has progressed since its inaugural meeting in Porto Alegre, Brazil, in 2001. During the first few WSF conferences – characterized in this article as "defensive" – activists convened with the primary goal of denouncing aggressive neoliberal and unilateralist policies. The author asserts that the WSF has gradually evolved beyond mere rhetoric about resisting the current global structure, instead focusing its efforts on empowering groups to seek better alternatives.
Critics often charge that the annual World Social Forum conferences do not yield practical solutions to the negative effects of neoliberal social and economic policies. This Inter Press Service article draws attention to "radical" changes in the structure of the WSF from a space for debates and discussions to a more dynamic social movement. As of 2008, while the WSF will continue to take place in parallel to the corporate-driven World Economic Forum, participants will organize events – including marches and demonstrations – in their regions, rather than in one central location.
article points out that big, Western NGOs overshadowed the contributions of their smaller, local counterparts. Furthermore, poor planning and high costs greatly limited participation by the very people whose lives the WSF sought to improve. The author concludes that while the conference fell short in its three goals – protesting, networking and coming up with proposals – it must continue working towards a better global society.
Critics say that while the World Social Forum provides a space for dialogue on how to improve the well-being of the poor, the annual conference often fails to yield tangible results. However, this Pambazuka piece warns against such pessimism and "becoming too preoccupied" with the flaws of the WSF. Instead, the author calls for more inclusive participation and a greater focus on finding solutions to the global problems brought to light at WSF meetings.
This Inter Press Service piece summarizes the findings of a survey on participants' experiences at past World Social Forum gatherings. Thousands of activists from around the world convene annually at the WSF to draw attention to – and seek solutions for – the harmful effects of neoliberal social and economic policies. According to the report, most participants believe the conference receives little attention from political leaders, the media and, therefore, ordinary citizens.
This Inter Press Service article examines opposing views about the effectiveness of the World Social Forum (WSF), an annual NGO conference held in parallel to the business-centered World Economic Forum. Some observers charge that participants at WSF meetings fail to speak "with one voice" on alternative policies to improve the lives of the world's poorest people. But despite criticism for its lack of "concrete" results, the WSF has drawn attention to the detrimental effects of neoliberal policies and, thus, contributed to the global movement for social and economic justice.
The World Social Forum aims to raise awareness about the plight of those marginalized by corporate-driven economic and social policies. But this Inter Press Service article points out that these very people remain underrepresented at the WSF conferences. Activists in Kenya, where the January 2007 meeting will take place, say that NGOs should "stop using problems of poor people to enrich themselves" and, instead, engage more with the communities they purport to help.
This ZNet analysis notes various problems with World Social Forums, from their large size to structural and organizational weaknesses to the "glaring absence" of fora in the US. The authors conclude that transnational events such as the World Social Forum provide a necessary space for understanding the increasingly interconnected world and challenging the growing US hegemony.
article argues that the participants in the forum have been unified in their opposition to corporate globalization, but now lack a common view of the way forward. The activists could combine their current approaches, which are to influence policies on state or local levels and forming single-issue networks, into a joint strategy.
The author of this Standard piece discusses the significance of the January 2007 World Social Forum taking place in Nairobi, Kenya at a time when "US and western influence is dwindling around the world." The annual WSF will draw further attention to the plight of those who suffer economic and social injustices arising from neoliberal policies that foreign institutions impose on poor countries. More specifically, the author expects that participants at the conference will focus on how to increase African nations' role in the global economy.
According to this BBC article many World Social Forum participants left Venezuela disappointed with the lack of final "wrap up" and plan of action to conclude the forum. Although the forum was useful for networking and provided many workshops and speakers, visitors grew frustrated when scheduled speakers and organizers failed to arrive. Other participants however remain positive about the WSF and believe it provided a worthwhile experience.
This Pambazuka "question and answer" provides a general overview of the World Social Forum (WSF), addresses the primary criticisms of the forum. African awareness-raising and mobilization was made possible in 2006 by holding polycentric events, which included Bamako, Mali. African attendance at previous forums had been minimal; therefore it was important that the WSF provide a space for groups from the area hardest hit by the globalization and poverty link to voice their concerns and ideas.
The World Social Forum (WSF) certainly has its faults: high-profile NGOs and local organizers have too much influence over the agenda, the annual event is "no longer novel," and participants have little consensus on the agenda at the end of the day. But the WSF, yet to reach its full capacity, still exists as a unique counter to the World Economic Forum. This Foreign Policy In Focus author celebrates the WSF as an integral part of the anti-globalization movement's future and praises the event organizers' decision to move to biennial conferences in cities other than Porto Alegre.
reports that the Forum's International Council has given up managerial powers as "grand organizer," involved greater input from participants in debate topics, and increased event space in hopes of increased progress and diversity.
US activists at the 2005 World Social Forum hope to "refute the widespread belief that their country has 'gone Republican,'" reports Inter Press Service. US-based NGOs attending the annual meeting in Porto Alegre, Brazil, hope recent tsunami aid efforts and continued criticism of the Iraq war will increase global awareness of the forum and help everyone join "the same path" towards universal solutions.
This rabble article argues the political culture of the World Social Forum (WSF) in India was transformed by the strong presence of indigenous peoples and "untouchables." Previously the WSF focused on neo-liberal globalization and largely ignored "struggles against discrimination based on race, ethnicity and religion."
Michael Albert argues activists have to "move from talking about people having a real say to people in fact having a real say." In this ZNet article he suggests ways to give the World Social Forum and the social movement behind it new momentum.
This Bretton Woods Project article reports on the special focus given to the Bretton Woods institutions at the World Social Forum in Mumbai. The workshops, discussions and conferences resulted in the upcoming "global days of action from 22 - 25 April during the Spring Meetings of the institutions."
This Indian Express article argues the World Social Forum (WSF) needs to engage with "the popular WSF narrative of the three pillars of an American-led evil empire: the IMF, World Bank and WTO," to improve the world.
This ZNet article gives a comprehensive account of the issues dominating the debate about the nature of the World Social Forum in Mumbai, India.

Ensminger tragedy 'shocks, devastates' West Monroe community
Cory Diaz
Monroe News Star
Once you enter the West Monroe family, you forever remain a part of the West Monroe family.
To countless people around the close-knit community, an impassioned populace where the Rebel football program sets the collective pulse each week during football season every fall, that's how the Ensmingers endure in their eyes, members of the West Monroe family.
The sudden and tragic death of Carley McCord, the wife of former Rebel quarterback Steven Ensminger Jr., not only shocked the Baton Rouge and New Orleans communities where the couple lived and worked, but more than 175 miles north on the banks of the Ouachita River, the tragedy has hit the West Monroe family hard.
More:Lafayette plane crash: No black box, no distress call, NTSB said as investigation begins
McCord was confirmed as one of five fatalities Saturday morning in a crash of a small private plane that was en route to the LSU-Oklahoma College Football Playoff semifinal matchup in Atlanta.
"I consider them part of the West Monroe family," former Rebel offensive coordinator Scott Stone told the News-Star Sunday morning. "They spent time here, played here and coached here. Steven is a West Monroe alum.
"This is a tragedy for the entire state of Louisiana."
McCord, a Baton Rouge native, held multiple sports reporting jobs, including in-game hosts for the New Orleans Saints and New Orleans Pelicans. She was 30.
Ensminger Jr. was rushed to the hospital with high blood pressure after receiving the news that his wife had perished in the crash Saturday. This was merely a couple of hours before his father, Steve Ensminger, was preparing to call plays as LSU's offensive coordinator in the biggest game of the year for the team.
Tigers head coach Ed Orgeron broke the tragic news of his daughter-in-law's passing to Ensminger, who was visibly shaken and could be seen on the field during pregame warmups wiping tears from his eyes. With Ensminger coaching from the booth Saturday, LSU rolled up 63 points to route Oklahoma and advance to the CFP National Championship Game Jan. 13 versus Clemson at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans.

West Monroe principal Shelby Ainsworth has known the Ensmingers since their time at the school and said how Ensminger Sr. handled it all Saturday was admirable.
"I'm sure it was tough on him," Ainsworth said. "I'm sure he and Steven talked. I imagine it was something even Steven Jr., with everything he's going through, knew the importance of what he dad was doing. Steven Sr. will have plenty of time to grieve with his son and family. I understand why he was where he was. Your family is important. Your career is important. He's invested a lot in both family and profession.
"I know they're fine folks. I think the world of both of those guys while they were here. It's just so unfortunate and heartbreaking."
Before Saturday's semifinal game, West Monroe head coach Jerry Arledge sent a text to Orgeron, Ensminger and LSU defensive line coach Bill Johnson, wishing them good luck to which they all almost immediately responded back. His message of well wishes came through around 9 a.m., a couple of hours before reports of McCord's death.
Arledge said he and his wife found out about the crash from their son, Will, who lives in Lafayette soon after he reached out to the trio of LSU coaches.
"It wasn't long that Will called us and told us about the plane crash," Arledge said. "The accident happened close to their house. The car that the plane hit when it came down, they knew the lady in the automobile. You don't have answers for these things. Accidents happen.
More:Fatal passenger plane crash in Lafayette: What we know now
"A couple of years ago when we went down to play Dutchtown in the playoffs, Steven and his future bride were there. She was working for a radio or TV station at the time and she did an interview with the coaches on the sideline. That's where I met her for the first time. It's a shock, and I know Steven is devastated."
Now the offensive coordinator at Cedar Creek in Ruston, Stone held the same position at West Monroe while Ensminger Jr. played quarterback. On the field, the pair was able to guide the Rebels to the 2005 state championship at Independence Stadium in Shreveport that season, capping off his senior year.
The year before, Ensminger Sr. coached wide receivers at West Monroe before leaving to take the quarterbacks coach position at Auburn University. He took his son with him, but Ensminger Jr. returned soon after to finish out his high school career with the Rebels.
His former teammate and Rebel and LSU offensive lineman Will Blackwell fondly remembers all he and Ensminger Jr. accomplished together on the field in high school. He told the News-Star Sunday it's still hard to process the passing of McCord, who he had met and spent some time around.
"It's tragic. It's not something you expect to hear," Blackwell said. "My immediate thought was Steven. We grew up and played ball together at West Monroe. We have stayed close friends over the years. We were at their wedding a couple of years ago and knew her well. We were shocked and didn't know how to process it.
"She's been around the sports journalism world for a while now. She was always fun, lively, easy to talk to. A very nice girl. She was a good person. Steven loved her. It's just tragic."
Stone said he hasn't reached out to his former quarterback yet but plans to do so next week.
"My heart goes out to Steven and Steve. With Steven, what he's going through is something I can't imagine," Stone said. "I wouldn't know how to react, how to feel anything like that. He and his wife had just been married a couple of years. Steve's coaching in the biggest game of his life up to that point and to have that on his heart and mind, it's just a tough situation.
"I want to tell (Ensminger Jr.) that I love him and that I'm here for him. If there's anything I can do for him, I will."
It wasn't too long ago, Ainsworth said, that Ensminger Jr. and McCord were in West Monroe visiting the place he loved enough to want to be a part of and graduate from the school. His former Rebel teammates, the coaches, the teachers and administrators at the high school while the Ensminger Jr. was enrolled, the entire West Monroe community have all felt the blow of the heartbreaking news.
"He still has ties here, it wasn't long ago that Steven was here," Ainsworth said. "When I first heard the news (Saturday), it felt like a loss to West Monroe."
The Ensmingers will always be Rebels, Arledge said: "Once a Rebel, always a Rebel."
To Blackwell, his high school quarterback, friend and his family have always been "one of our own" and he said the West Monroe has the Ensmingers' back.
"How close they were to West Monroe and how important West Monroe was to them. We accepted them and still treat them as one of our own, they always will be, in my case," Blackwell said.
"We are heartbroken for our guy. We're here for him. The West Monroe community is grieving and praying and thinking about the family. We're here to help out in any way that we can."


It seems like just yesterday we toasted the new millennium, but here we are, about to say good-bye to 2015. Sure, it's a cliché phrase, but time really does fly by.
Whether time flies or moves at glacial speed, we still have 24 hours in a day, seven days in a week, and no choice in the matter. We use it or lose it. And, because time is one of our most prized possessions, we need to use it wisely.
Treat your time as a precious asset with limited capacity.
"Block" your time (group it in 30-60 minute intervals without interruption) in order to complete your priority assignments.
Don't let interruptions destroy your productivity. Always saying "yes" is not necessarily a good thing!
Learn to multi-task lower priority responsibilities. For example, I rarely watch television without doing something else like reading the newspaper or responding to emails.
Keep cell phones elsewhere when you need focused time. The temptation to answer calls and texts is a major distraction.
Find your best venue for focused work. Is it your home office? A coffee shop? Library? Your patio?
Take periodic breaks. Studies show we're less productive when we work over an hour straight without a five-minute break.
Do you view time as a precious asset and focus on your most important priorities?
