Why Can't Marist Produce the Next Sarah Fuller?
by Jess King
This article is the first in a series of stories by Marist alumni. First up is Jess King '20. As part of "Alumni Week" she examines the chances of Marist Football adding a woman to the roster.
If she can kick a ball, why not let her play football?
Ever since November 28th, this question has been taken into consideration across college football. If you've been living under a rock, or simply banished cable from your life, on that date in 2020, the first female took to the field in a Power Five conference football game. Vanderbilt's women's soccer starting goalkeeper Sarah Fuller kicked it off for the Commodores against Missouri and went on to successfully kick an extra point later in the season. Let's throw a couple more names out there.
Katie Hnida kicked two extra points for New Mexico in 2003.
April Goss kicked an extra point for Kent State when they played Delaware State in 2015.
And that's just FBS.
To continue, Liz Heaton for Williamette, Ashley Martin for Jacksonville State, Tonya Butler for West Alabama, and Lebanon Valley's Brittany Ryan. All have kicked in college football games stretching from NAIA to FCS.
This begs another question, why can't the Marist Red Foxes join the shortlist of colleges leading this new wave of inclusivity for capable women that could thrive on special teams? Here's why they can.
It does little-to-no harm to roster a woman from the soccer program at Marist onto the football team. Though the Red Foxes are considered an FCS school, which usually limits its roster due to a 65-player scholarship restriction, the Foxes don't have that same restriction. As members of the Pioneer Football League (PFL), they surprisingly don't offer scholarships to football players even though they are division I and FCS.
Allowing a woman to play on the football team seems like a matter close to home for them. The small Hudson Valley campus has a population of 58 percent women to 42 percent men, according to the official college website. So with a strong representation of women, it seems as though the college community would come out to support a some-what struggling football program that supports women in sports.
The college has many things going for it. Notable alumni such as Rik Smits, Ian O'Connor, Jason Myers, Kevin McCarthy, and Ed Lowe have graced the Marist campus over the years. While one of those names, Myers, is a professional football kicker for the Seattle Seahawks, Marist was never really acclaimed for its success in college football. In reality, the Red Foxes haven't seen a successful season in quite some time. The last triumphant season the Foxes had was in 2013 – finishing second in the PFL. This season, however, came with a few asterisks. Both Jacksonville University and San Diego vacated that season due to violating PFL rules. So while the Red Foxes aren't necessarily experiencing the same pain as the Commodores from being 0-9 this season, they also shouldn't seem above turning to the women's soccer team for some extra help, on and off the field.
Statistically speaking, out of the 11 games the Red Foxes played last season, they went 11-14 on field goals, compared to their opponents going 6-12. They averaged 34.85 punt yards per game while their opponents went for 36.95 punt yards per game. While Vanderbilt didn't have a great season this year, in 2019 their record was 3-9 overall. They went 10-12 on field goals as well averaged 42.18 punt yards per game. So yes, the Commodores brought Fuller onto the roster for COVID-related reasons, but anyone can see it's beneficial for them.
There are some candidates for a potential roster addition for the Foxes. Abigail Renaud, the senior goalkeeper for Marist women's soccer. While we'd have to see her kick a ball far enough to punt, she's a highly decorated goalkeeper. In 2018, her sophomore year, she appeared in 13 games and started in 12 of them. She ended that year with 40 saves for a save percentage of .800. She recorded a career high of six saves twice that season. In her junior year, she started in seven games and ended the year with a save percentage of .721. The concern here is height, a difference between Fuller and Renaud. Fuller ranks at 6'2″ while Renaud is only 5'8''. Regardless, the Red Foxes have five kickers on their roster, with two also listed as punters. One is a walk-on who has seen no playing time, another is a freshman, and the only one with memorable stats – Luke Paladino a redshirt sophomore who went 11-for-14 on field goal attempts and 28-for-29 on PATs totaling 61 points.
So while Abigail Renaud, or any other female who can kick a ball, might not make a direct impact on the winning percentage of the team this season, or even the next, the list of reasons why this system could work for the Red Foxes goes on. Yes, they have room for her on the roster. Yes, the representation of women on campus is strong and it would be a great way for them to, frankly, fill out the stands. Yes, this would be great for the team and athletics department's public relations.
And… Yes, let's see more women in sports.

As detailed by Erie Times-News reporter David Bruce, gym class at Parker Middle School in Edinboro has gone high-tech.
The school in the General McLane School District has purchased devices that look like wrist watches. Students strap them on as class begins and the data — heart rate and calories burned — pours into a computer program that tracks each student's individual progress.
Colored lights on the devices let the kids know how they are doing. The red zone signals not danger, but the optimal heart rate for better fitness. The goal is to keep the child's heart rate in that zone, 80 percent of his or her maximum rate, for at least 20 minutes in each gym class.
"It pushes us. It's like a challenge," 13-year-old Ellen Cunningham told Bruce.
The school district spent $18,000 for its Interactive Health Technology program. The Erie School District is using similar technology in gym classes throughout its 18 schools, thanks to a $1.2 million federal grant. Pam Wiley, the district's health and physical education facilitator, said the district's devices can project data onto the wall to allow teachers to monitor each child's effort in class.
Weight loss, especially for young people, is no exercise in vanity. Being overweight or obese places children at higher risk of developing serious, potentially life-threatening health problems later in life, including diabetes, heart disease, asthma, and cancer.
Pennsylvania has the 24th highest adult obesity rate in the U.S., according to The State of Obesity: Better Policies for a Healthier America study released in September. That same month, the Highmark Foundation reported that the percentage of overweight and obese children in Erie County had increased slightly in 2015, reversing a trend toward improvement. Nearly 40 percent of children from pre-K to 12th grade had body mass index measurements above what is considered healthy.
The digital technology now being deployed in local gym classes not only gets children moving in a fun, new ways, but also hopefully instills in them lifelong habits that will reverse dangerous obesity trends for good.

Who's Ready to Fight Plastic Pollution?
A global meeting in November to address the problem by establishing a legally binding agreement did not meet the moment. When the International Negotiating Committee convenes again next year, delegates' ambitions will need to match the scale and scope of the problem.
Further and Further Away"- Environment and Identity in Cambodia
The short film "Further and Further Away" is portraying a brother and sister who belong to the Bunong ethnic minority in Cambodia. We spoke with director Polen Ly and producer Daniel Mattes about the process of making the film, youth in Cambodia and the opportunities for independent film making in the country.
Overexposed
Women are more affected than men by plastics. Biological reasons are part of the problem: their bodies react in different ways to toxins, and the hygiene products that women use are often contaminated. But alternatives do exist.
Indigenous rangers expand footprint in Cambodian forest besieged by illegal logging
As environmental activists are silenced around them, a group of Kuy grandfathers have taken matters into their own hands and are reversing a global trend in a bid to keep their ancient culture alive.
Civil Society Organisations in Cambodia: Impact, Challenges and Opportunities
CSOs in Cambodia have had to maneuver in an increasingly repressive environment, but the challenges and failures that they have had to face thus far have led to important reflections and learnings.
Thailand's Plastic Waste Conundrum
Despite the Thai government's ban of four more types of single-use plastics in 2022, up to 250,000 tonnes of imported plastic waste from other nations continues to flow into the country annually through the international plastic waste trade. Thailand is trying to stay the course with further efforts to mitigate plastic pollution, but there are still challenges in waste sorting and collection on the ground.
Plastic Atlases
The plastic atlas offers data and facts about a world full of plastic. Since the first German plastic atlas was published in June 2019, our international offices have published numerous other versions, both translations and regional editions. The atlases are accompanied by informative online dossiers and interesting video clips on the offices' websites. But other exciting formats have also emerged around the plastic atlas. Here is an overview.
Giant Satrey: the strength of contemporary Cambodian women
Violence against women and environmental pollution: current social issues are embodied in contemporary and symbolic pieces by the dance company New Cambodian Artists.
This dossier provides a diverse selection of strong civil society voices from Cambodia. We hope that the analyses and contributions included will lead to a better understanding of the results, impacts and successes of the actions of Cambodian civil society.
New Rights, Old Freedom
Poetry is an important form of expression for everyday and social issues in Cambodia, providing an important voice in increasingly shrinking spaces. The award-winning poem by Chhoy Phanith gives insights into the aspirations and hopes of young Cambodians.

From the acclaimed director of The Crying Game and Interview with the Vampire comes a romantic story of desire and betrayal. The setting is war-torn England, 1939. Sarah Miles (Julianne Moore) is married to Henry (Stephen Rea), a man she loves but with whom she shares no intimacy. When she meets Maurice Bendrix (Ralph Fiennes), the two have an immediate attraction for each other and embark on a torrid affair. Their passion is as earth-shattering as the bombs that explode around them, until the day Sarah mysteriously and abruptly walks out of Maurice's life. Two years later, Maurice runs into Henry, who confides his suspicions of Sarah's infidelity. Fueled by his own jealousy and desperate to solve the mystery surrounding the end of their own romance, Maurice agrees to help. His investigation not only re-ignites his love for Sarah but also leads him to discover a devastating secret which will change their lives forever.
Critics Consensus: Neil Jordan has good direction with solid performances from Ralph Fiennes and Julianne Moore.
Jordan proves again that he is a supreme storyteller of complex human dramas.
The whole thing is beyond purple and yet so careful and reverent you can't even enjoy it as camp.

Spotlight on an Awesome Imgurian: ANewBadlyPhotoshoppedPhotoofMichaelCeraEveryday
October 20, 2015 Community
Hide your kids. Hide your wife. New badly photoshopped images of Michael Cera are surprising everybody out here.
The culprit behind these badly photoshopped images is the aptly named ANewBadlyPhotoshoppedPhotoofMichaelCeraEveryday. For two months, he has been practicing his photo editing skills by replacing the subjects of popular Imgur posts with the ultimate awkward celebrity, Michael Cera.
"I was completely in awe of photoshopped posts," he admitted. "One of the first comments I can remember making on Imgur was a meme I created using MS Paint. I had zero photoshop skills, and I was completely jealous. I knew I couldn't photoshop and thought I never would be able to, but an idea came to me."
He eventually decided he was sick and tired of being terrible at photo editing and wanted to get better, so he set out to try something silly with the goal of making some people laugh and improving. "I had an idea. I started posting badly photoshopped Michael Cera pictures every day. My first Mona Lisa post was literally the first time I had ever used Gimp. I didn't even know how to save the file as a .jpeg! I screen captured it in Gimp, pasted it in MS Paint, and cropped it. I did that with a lot of my early posts until I learned to export. The response was very mixed, but I was determined to post every day, as more than anything, I genuinely wanted to improve, and my end goal was to learn how to create a GIF."
The Michael Cera adventure that he created for the Imgur community turned out to be an unexpected adventure for him as well. "I soon realized what was even more valuable than fake internet points was the interaction I had with other Imgurians. I read and re-read comments many times and engaged in as many conversations as I could with the users who were following. It was really a thrilling adventure for me."
Things went from bad to…pretty decent, actually. As his skills improved, the Imgur community started to catch on. No one ever knew where Michael Cera would be hiding next.
You may think you know every image that has ever graced the front page of Imgur, but have you seen the subjects of those images replaced with Michael Cera's awkward stare?
Is this how it all ends?http://imgur.com/gallery/LtG3tTP
With time, the photoshopped Cera game changed. The hard work and daily determination paid off–our hero had realized his dream of being able to create a GIF! Suddenly, it was harder to immediately spot Michael Cera and the element of surprise increased drastically.
It was never just about the bad photoshops, though. The support that he has received from the Imgur community has not only been motivation for him, but a source of joy as well. "More than anything I love the comments and interaction with Imgur. There are some quality people out there!" He said. "I always try and respond as often as I can. I know you can never please everybody, but the positive feedback and comments from people who say the posts make them smile or have brought them some form of happiness means a lot to me…While fake internet points cannot buy you happiness, the support from Imgur keeps me trying, and without it, I don't think I ever would have come this far. I know still have lot to learn."
Sunday Night edit: It's been another crazy fun week friends! Thanks! SinCeraly hoping you all have a supergood Sunday and a great week ahead. Oyasumi from Japan!
The road ahead may not be as long as we all hope, however. "I don't know how much longer this wild ride can go on," he admitted. "I think people have started to come to their senses. But I have a few more ideas, and am also currently running a game in Imgur called Ceramon–Pokémon creatures created using badly photoshopped Michael Cera, of course. There have been a few pretty loyal players and I'm enjoying myself."
He promises that when the time comes to retire the ruse, he'll be going out with a bang. "I will hopefully do something never before done on Imgur, and restore balance to the force."
The world is not ready. Thanks for all the laughs, ANewBadlyPhotoshoppedPhotoofMichaelCeraEveryday!

Show of historic drawings by Ramon y Cajal, the Spanish artist known as the father of neuroscience, includes scientific image from NIEHS lab.
When "The Beautiful Brain" opened Jan. 25 at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC), the show of anatomical drawings by Spanish artist and Nobel-winning scientist Santiago Ramon y Cajal included a scientific image from the lab of Serena Dudek, Ph.D., deputy chief of the NIEHS Neurobiology Laboratory.
Cajal, known as the father of neuroscience, trained first as an artist. "I think all neuroscientists appreciate his contributions," said Dudek, noting that his drawings are still used in teaching today.
Cajal was a contemporary of Camillo Golgi, with whom he shared a Nobel Prize in 1906. Yet they held contrary views of the brain's structure. "Cajal used Golgi's methods, but the two were infamous for their rivalry," said Dudek, who also serves on the neuroscience faculty at the UNC School of Medicine.
"Cajal offered what is now known as the neuron doctrine, which holds that neurons are separate entities," she explained. "Golgi thought they were all physically part of the same network or structure." She added that the question was not resolved definitively until the 1950s, with the advent of electron microscopy.
The NIEHS image on display at UNC's Ackland Art Museum is from a remarkable study published in 2016. The dark areas in the electron micrograph show structures called perineuronal nets (PNNs) in a surprising location, according to lead author Kelly Carstens, Ph.D., a postdoctoral fellow in Dudek's lab. That location is in a part of the brain's hippocampus known as CA2, which is involved in social behaviors, learning, and memory.
Dudek is a pioneer in the study of CA2 development. "We were the first to find that in hippocampal area CA2, PNNs surround dendritic spines on pyramidal neurons, which are excitatory," she explained. Excitatory neurons stimulate further signaling. PNNs were previously known to surround inhibitory neurons, so named because they slow or shut down signals.
Carstens and the rest of the team believe their findings have important implications for understanding a critical early period of development. "Developmental regulation of PNNs in area CA2 may … represent a therapeutic target for PNN-associated developmental disorders, such as schizophrenia and Rett syndrome," they wrote.
Carstens carried out the research while a predoctoral fellow in Dudek's lab and a graduate student in the UNC lab of Richard Weinberg, Ph.D. He is a co-author on the paper.
"Drawing was a tool to observe, discern, and recount microanatomy structure," wrote artist Dawn Hunter, in a November 2017 blog post for the National Library of Medicine (NLM). Several Cajal drawings are on display at the National Institutes of Health John Edward Porter Neuroscience Research Center. A 2017 Fulbright Scholarship allowed Hunter to Cajal's study sketchbooks and other materials at the Instituto Cajal in Madrid.
The act of drawing appears to have shown him that the brain differed from Golgi's understanding and may have helped him develop the neuron doctrine.

Vitellaro-Zuccarello L, De Biasi S, Spreafico R.1998. One hundred years of Golgi's "perineuronal net": history of a denied structure. Ital J Neurol Sci 19(4):249–253.
"Santiago Ramon y Cajal's drawings of the brain are both aesthetically astonishing and scientifically significant, and 'The Beautiful Brain' is the first museum exhibition to present these extraordinary works in their historical context," according to the Ackland Art Museum's webpage.
The museum also said that its exhibit, which continues until April 7, is the only location for the show in the South.
"The Beautiful Brain: The Drawings of Santiago Ramon y Cajal" was developed by the Frederick R. Weisman Art Museum, University of Minnesota with the Instituto Cajal.

6 Ways Any Business Can Engage Customers and Increase Sales During the Holidays!
Tis the season for businesses across the world to see the bottom line of the P&L report go from red to black! It's the time of year that can make or break a business. So what are you doing to make sure you stay in touch, stay top of mind, and stay on top of sales this holiday season?
Here are 6 ways any business can stay in touch and increase sales this holiday season!
Offer special discounts to your best customers on the things they buy the most. Why not treat them to a holiday gift, from you to them? Offer amazing deals on the things they buy the most! It's a great way to say Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah, or Happy Kwanzaa to your most loyal customers!
Offer Gift Certificates. Maybe you're an automotive repair shop, or a hairdresser, or maid service, or a professional organizer, or a web developer – how do you gift those things?? With gift certificates, of course!!! We all know times have been tough for a few years, who wouldn't love a free oil change and tire rotation, new hair style, or house cleaning!?! (I know I would, hint, hint) Or maybe you have tons of products and services and choosing one is too difficult! Give the gift of choice! Gift certificates are great stocking stuffers AND offer a great opportunity to cross sell (see #3!).
Cross-sell! It's a great time to suggest items to go with products or services they already purchase. Maybe they bought a beautiful set of earrings last year for mom, this year suggest the matching necklace. When you sell a spa package, offer the premium at-home spa kit to go with it as a carrier for the gift certificate! The hairdresser can cross sell a salon quality shampoo and conditioner set; the auto repair store can offer jumper cables or fix-a-flat canisters – all as nice little carriers for the gift certificates! Cross-selling is a great way to add value to the client – and to increase sales!!!
Send gift ideas. How many times have you been stumped on a gift for that hard-to-buy for person on your list? We've all been there! So help your customers by sending an email full of gift ideas tailored to the people on their list with headings like: "gifts for mom", "great gifts for co-workers, neighbors, or mail carriers". What are your most popular items and who buys them? Share that info with the people on your mailing list and they'll be grateful for it!
Offer free wrapping or free delivery. Who doesn't love a surprise?!? Don't be afraid to think outside the box. What if that premium spa package and at-home spa kit were hand delivered with a bouquet of fresh flowers or a box of chocolates?? What if the oil change was done on-site at the recipient's home? What if a gift basket with a few jars of local homemade jam and bakery-fresh scones were delivered fresh on a Saturday morning? Wouldn't that make the gift extra special?
Send cards and/or gifts to current and past clients- Maybe staying in touch and top of mind is as simple as wishing them a Happy Holiday and thanking them for their business! Customers love to know they're appreciated. Send them a card or a special gift that has nothing to do with trying to sell them anything – they'll love you for it!
Thank you Purple Cow Websites for responding to my Facebook post yesterday with this great idea for a blog!!
Want to share?? Please do! Leave your comments here.
Thanks for reminding us of great ways to provide more value for our clients! That's why you are good at what you do…keep it up.
Thank you Wendy, I appreciate that! Have a wonderful holiday!
Thank you for reading and for taking the time to leave your comment. I'm glad you enjoyed the article. Happy Holidays!
Great article. Love the cross-selling reminder. I've found it is the best (and usually easiest) way to make a client happy, make a sale and also build a good relationship with a fellow businessperson.
Thanks again Susan, I appreciate all of your support and encouraging words! Happy Holidays to you !!

At the technology center, CREO has been working on several aspects of technology and product development. While Yildirim Yazganarikan is involved in the entire design development of projects, Negar Kalantar (also co-director of the Digital Craft lab at CCA) directs the integration of technology and modular systems, and Alireza Borhani oversees system design development and manufacturing processes. In terms of technology, the team built a fully working prototype of airIQ, an industrial, vertical living system that purifies air through the organic process of bio-filtration. It employs automation in the water reservoir and circulation system, development of a hybrid grow medium that is optimized for hydroponics and air purification, and integration of air quality sensors in the system. Based on the data captured by airIQ, the team has further improved the design and the next iteration, Bio-Brick™, is in production.
The team also refined work on their award-winning Eco-Curtain system, which was originally developed as a vertical hydroponic system to grow food indoors. The refinements resulted in increased flexibility of how the system can be installed and used. Through their work in the residency program, this product has been introduced to market.
The Autodesk Foundation has been providing support to the team, and through feedback from the Autodesk Sustainability team, CREO developed and is currently testing, Bio-Bulb™, a completely autonomous, modular design with integrated sensors, irrigation, and IoT technology that can create and optimize habitat environments for plants.

Most of us recognize that our residential air conditioning systems have a significant impact on our seasonal utility bills – cooling and heating account for about 56% of a home's energy usage, the Department of Energy says. But the impact is not just from the temperature outdoors. How well these systems are maintained also affects utility bills as well as overall comfort.
A central air conditioning system has multiple components that require regular maintenance in order for the unit to function properly and efficiently. Neglecting to maintain these components, however, leads to a decline in a system's performance, shorten its life and increase utility bills.
For example, the most routine of all maintenance steps is to change your air conditioner filter regularly. If the filter is clogged and dirty, it blocks airflow. But keeping filters clean can lower your air conditioner energy consumption by 5 to 15 percent.
Additionally, both the condenser coil on the outside and the evaporator coil on the inside can collect dirt and dust – which reduces airflow, increases energy usage and decreases comfort. What's more, improper maintenance can lead to the compressor or fan failing prematurely.
For our customers, we recommend that they enroll in a routine maintenance program that provides for thorough seasonal tune-ups as well as discounts and priority service. It's a great way for you to preserve your system's life, increase its energy efficiency and avoid poorly timed cooling problems. And you can expect real results!
If the refrigerant needs recharging, this correction can improve system efficiency by 20%.
Correcting airflow rates can improve efficiency another 5-10%.
Among other services, the technician will also oil motors, check belts for tightness and wear, check the accuracy of the thermostat, inspect and tighten electrical connections and more… all to get your system in tiptop shape for the height of summer.
Schedule your air conditioner tune-up today. It's well worth the savings and comfort you'll soon enjoy.

Q: css multiple backgrounds positioning I have a background in place on my wordpress theme,
I have another image which I would like to position it in the center of the page and horizontally repeat it from left to right.
very similar to this website http://www.tcs.com/homepage/Pages/default.aspx
any tips or instructions is highly appreciated.
Thank you

A: I would use a wrapper to accomplish this.
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<style type="text/css">
body {
background-image: url(image1.jpg);
}
#wrapper {
background-position: center middle;
width:100%;
height:100%;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
background-image: url(image2.jpg);
background-repeat: x-repeat;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="wrapper">

</div>
</body>

A: You can set multiple background images with CSS3 like this:
body {
  background: url(first_image.png) top left no-repeat,
              url(second_image.png) center center repeat-x;
}

You just have to separate the rules with a comma.  It's pretty widely supported.
Is this what you're looking for?
http://jsfiddle.net/4S5HR/

A: It depends on where you have your original background image. If it was attached to the html like this
html {
    background: url(original-background.png) top left repeat-x;
    }

You could attach the repeating horizontal image to the body like this
body {
    background: url(repeating-background.png) top center repeat-x;
    }

Could you provide some more details as to how your css is and I can give you a more detailed answer but this should work for what you require.

Laguna Trails Recovery is a top rehab treatment facility in Orange County, California. Our specialization in personalized science-based addiction recovery treatment makes our facility one of the leading in the region, with strong support for cocaine addicts in every stage of recovery. We approach addiction with the understanding that every person coming into our care is unique, and therefore needs custom treatment to tackle their unique personal problems. And, with a staff of medical professionals available to support every need, we are able to help recovering addicts build the tools necessary to create a new life, cocaine free.
Cocaine is a stimulant-drug, which massively increases dopamine production in the brain to create increased energy and a sense of euphoria in most users. While the risk of addiction is low under moderate use, heavy users become dependent and addicted – often using more of the drug to prevent painful crash and withdrawal symptoms. Over time, this can cause severe anxiety and paranoia, as well as panic attacks where users may feel as though they are dying. Cocaine causes addiction through repeated use, where users change the physical makeup of their brain, readjusting to increased levels of dopamine, serotonin, GABA transmitters, norepinephrine, and glutamate, so that they may experience emotional blunting or difficulty experiencing pleasure at all while off the drug.
As a strong stimulant, cocaine causes a massive increased risk of heart attack and stroke. With increased energy levels and metabolism, many long-term users experience clogged arteries, lose unhealthy amounts of weight, and may take on a pallor or pale appearance. Over time, cocaine abuse causes inflammation of the heart muscles, increased agitation, hyperactivity, cold and flu symptoms, muscle tics, and the inability to concentrate or focus. This results in a greater risk of heart attack and stroke and increasing mental disorders including anxiety and depression.
Quitting cocaine on your own is difficult. Most users experience strong side effects including paralyzing panic attacks and anxiety, which may result in hospitalization or relapse to stop symptoms. With hard crashes and intense cravings, many abusers need pharmaceutical support or a tapering program to quit the drug successfully.
At Laguna Trails Recovery, we are prepared to create a custom detox program with prescription medication to reduce anxiety and discomfort during withdrawal. We can help you to detox the safe way, so that you can begin to heal and move into therapy. Our comprehensive treatment solutions include customized plans to give you the treatment you need to recover.
Recovering from an addiction is extremely difficult and often dangerous, but you don't have to do it alone. Call us today at 877-447-4977 to discuss how we can help you with personalized treatment so you can recover and get your life back.

Digital tax credit and cost reductions help Torstar in Q4
Advertising revenues were still soft across most segments.
By Bree Rody
John Boynton said "all things considered," it was a pleasing quarter for Torstar.
The media company's president and CEO told listeners on a conference call that the corporation's final quarter of 2017 left the company "well-positioned to execute and invest in future growth plans," despite declining revenues in many aspects of the business.
Operating revenue for the quarter came in at $189.5 million, down 9.2% year-over-year. Net income from continuing operations was $7.8 million, up from $0.7 million. This improvement was mostly credited to reductions in costs and a $13.4 million digital media tax credit.
Boynton said the highly publicized publication swap between Torstar and Postmedia (which saw no cash change hands) will likely result in improvements of between $5 million and $7 million in 2018 earnings (which will include earnings from the four daily community papers acquired from Postmedia that were not shut down).
Torstar changed its various reporting segments in Q4. It previously reported finances for Star Media Group (the Toronto Star and its related digital properties), Metroland Media Group (the Waterloo Region Record, the Hamilton Spectator, the various community papers and several online flyer properties) and digital ventures.
While the digital ventures segment remains unchanged, the remaining properties have been restructured to the "daily brands" segment and the "community brands" segment. The new reporting units mostly mirror the previous ones, with the major difference being the Record and the Spectator moving to the same segment as the Star.
Within the digital ventures segment is Torstar's investment in web publisher VerticalScope. It has continued to see increases in revenue, which EVP and CFO Lorenzo DiMarchi said is "expected to assist higher organic growth and acquisition in the future."
Print advertising revenues from both local and national advertisers were down across Torstar's various media brands.
In the daily brands, revenue was $86.1 million, down 10% from the same brands year-over-year. In print, national advertising revenue saw the biggest decline (30%). Subscription revenues were flat.
Boynton added that when discounting the revenue from Star Touch, which was discontinued last summer, digital revenue in the dailies segment was up 14% year-over-year.
Across its community brands, local ad revenue fell 9.8% versus the year prior, while national revenue was down 14% for the same properties (although president of community brands and operations Ian Oliver stated that national revenue only makes up a small portion of this segment's revenue). Oliver said advertising declines were largely due to "financial challenges experienced by certain retail clients."
Recently, Torstar made a decision to discontinue most of the internships at the Toronto Star, which will result in approximately $500,000 in savings over the next year (the savings from that decision did not impact Q4, which ended Dec. 31). DiMarchi also said on the call that the company would continue to "identify additional cost savings," although he did not specify where those savings would come from.

Inquire now - we would love to talk with you more about this opportunity!
A tested and proven method of running a business.
A support network of over 1,300 franchises.
The technology to run an effective business.
A Corporate staff who truly cares about "Helping Entrepreneurs Succeed."
How do you know if a franchise is the right one for you? SERVPRO® realizes selecting a franchise and a franchisor can be a difficult and confusing process. For this reason, SERVPRO developed the following list to help you in the franchise selection process. We suggest you follow these steps to find the right franchise for you. We hope your decision is SERVPRO!
If the highest source of revenue is franchise sales income, you should be concerned. A franchise must generate enough royalty revenue to maintain all company expenses. Otherwise, the franchisor is very vulnerable to problems. Also, note the equity in the company. A company should not be heavily in debt.
Are they focused on the future of the company, or are they acting as day to day operations? How long has the management been in place? What have they done to improve the company? What are the current initiatives? Are the executives open and willing to speak with you?
Talk to the last three franchises that completed training.
Do they feel well prepared?
What did their training consist of?
Is your equipment/products package complete?
The name, or trademark, is a primary value of the franchisor. Make certain the name of the franchise is known by key clients in the industry.
Within what industry is the franchise operating? Is the product or service a necessity? Is it a luxury/fad orientated item? How large is the industry? Is the product or service diversified enough to react to difficult entry markets, or is it a single product/service offering?
The length of time in business and the total number of franchisees will indicate how mature the franchisor is in the marketplace. Quality Franchisors have steady growth and a good history of service to the franchisees.
A franchisor should have a profile of the best franchise candidates. There should be an organized process of learning about the franchise offering. There should also be a qualification process for the franchisees.

Sidney Powell Is Being Mocked After Being Dumped By The Trump Campaign For Being Kookier Than Rudy Giuliani
Jessica ToomerTwitterContributor
There's a limit on crazy — even for a president whose hobbies include retweeting QAnon conspiracies and dismantling democracy — and it looks like Sidney Powell just reached it.
Powell, an attorney, and outspoken Trump supporter was named to the president's legal team last week as he continued to cast doubt on the results of the 2020 presidential election. Trump's effort to hold up the transition of power in court with lawsuits in multiple states alleging various forms of voter fraud has been going embarrassingly poorly as more and more judges throw out unsubstantiated cases and his top legal aide, Rudy Giuliani invites the press to his public meltdowns. Powell was part of that team, working for Giuliani and Trump, who seemed confident in her abilities just a few days prior.
how it started / how it's going pic.twitter.com/27iyQwc8GZ
— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) November 22, 2020
But this tweet didn't age well. That's because Powell quickly started attacking members of the president's own party in her attempt to prove voter fraud had taken place in Georgia — a state which turned blue for Biden and is currently in the midst of a run-off election that could turn the Senate majority for the Democrats. Powell has attacked Georgia's Republican Governor, Brian Kemp, after he certified the state's vote for Biden, but it's her wild claims about organized voter fraud that probably proved to be the final nail in her political coffin.
On Thursday, Powell — who's diatribe was overshadowed by Rudy Giuliani's hair-dye incident — told the press she believed Dominion, Georgia's voting software system, was created at the direction of the late Venezuelan dictator, Hugo Chavez:
"Georgia is probably going to be the first state I'm going to blow up … and Mr. Kemp and the Secretary of State need to go with it because they're in on the Dominion scam. Another benefit Dominion was created to reward is what I would call election insurance, that's why Hugo Chavez had it created in the first place. I also wonder where he got the technology, where it actually came from because I think it's him or … the CIA."
There's a lot to unpack there, especially after Powell threatened Kemp with a "biblical lawsuit" and suggested the state had voting servers in Germany that might have also been compromised. None of these claims have been verified and Powell has shown no evidence when asked to produce back-up for these allegations. And look, we could continue to shame Trump, Powell and the rest of the GOP's cronies by fact-checking their obvious lies to death, but then you wouldn't get to bask in the joy of watching Twitter drag them within an inch of their lives.
BREAKING: Rudy Giuliani explains that dismissal of SIDNEY POWELL from Trump legal team is due to insufficient public statements next to dildo stores
— Eric Garland (@ericgarland) November 22, 2020
Imagine being Sidney Powell watching Rudy Giuliani tucking in his dick on Borat only to have Rudy tell her she's out here doing too much crazy shit to continue representing Trump.

Sidney Powell should be our first female president.

Watching the election conspiracy pushers like Sidney Powell come for Kelly Loeffler in Georgia, even suggesting that someone on their side bought the election, is like watching Jurassic Park. The GOP created the monsters, and now they're loose and they can't control them.
— George Takei (@GeorgeTakei) November 22, 2020
I have evidence of biblical proportions about Sidney Powell stealing $755 worth of sex toys from the shop next to Four Seasons Total Landscaping, but I'm going to wait till the right time to drop it. Book me on the news shows in the meantime!
Has anyone been able to reach Hugo Chavez for comment about Sidney Powell being fired?
— Ricky Davila (@TheRickyDavila) November 23, 2020
Powell has said she'll continue to pursue legal avenues to a Trump victory on her own like some kind of socialist-crusading maverick, but it looks like the moral of the story for future Trump clout-chasers is this: if your conspiracy theory involves dead Latin American Marxists rigging votes, you've gone too far.

Most people don't live in a world of perfect clarity. We don't always have a yes or no answer, or a vivid picture of exactly where to go next. Everyone has a story, a reason, a background, a unique path that's defined where they are today. There's gray – lots of gray. Understanding where people are coming from and what they may be feeling in their own experience is so important when it comes to working effectively with others.
We have to be okay with the fact that very few things are going to be purely clear-cut, with razor-sharp definition. We have to listen, engage, and make an effort to grasp the human element of each individual's past, present, and future. Particularly when we're navigating toward change and aiming to bring a team along with us, we're going to find ourselves playing in undefined space quite a bit. It's how we handle the process of working through it with our teams that can make all the difference and positively drive us toward the desired result.
When we raise the expectations at work, ask our teams to do something new, or simply just change part of the day-to-day game, we're likely going to encounter elements of resistance, or at the very least, emerging or intense feelings. When we do, it's time to listen. It's time to support our teams as a unit with a common goal but know that everyone might need to take their own path to arrive at the finish line. Being supportive, understanding, and willing to work with them in a way that reflects their strengths and inner drive is key.
When we actively work with our teams and embrace this spirit of empathy, we'll likely find that we can produce something much greater than any of us could ever do on our own. When we allow natural talents to shine as we forge a path toward progress, the outcomes become stronger than ever. We just have to play to the strengths of our individual team members, so they can stay actively present and engaged. This is where we allow for, within reason, freedom within a framework to achieve the desired results. If we let reflections of our unique beings emerge in the process of reaching the end goal, we'll get there together. We'll very likely have team members who are more committed to the process and supportive of the final results, too.
As we learn from Tom Rath in the Strengths Finder 2.0, people are six times more likely to be engaged in their jobs when they are given the chance to utilize their strengths at work. That's a big number, and one that we need to be aware of when aiming to truly drive genuine growth and progress. So, the next time we're challenged with achieving a team goal, let's think about the best way to arrive at the finish line. Let's think about the human element that ensues along the way, and the power our teams have to be more productive and aligned when they're free to let their natural talents emerge. It may not be a path of clearly black and white. There may be a little gray, but the final product will be brighter, shinier, and emit more clarity than ever.
Rath, Tom. StrengthsFinder 2.0. New York, NY: Gallup Press, 2007.
One of the hardest positions to embrace is being the person who needs to drive change or lead a team when you're not the boss. That's where true leaders and team players have their skills put to the ultimate test. It can be pretty tough, and it's that moment when you might realize that relationships really do matter – a lot.
Managers have it easy: when your boss asks you to do something, you kinda gotta to do it. It's part of your job and they're the ones at the end of the day either signing your check or sending you on your way. Everyone wants to please their bosses. Hopefully, said bosses don't actually approach their teams with a stick and a demand, but truly lead by gaining alignment, trust, and buy-in, but that's a conversation for another day, and one we'll certainly spend some time on later.
For now, think about what happens when you're not the boss. What happens when you're tasked with implementing a program or a strategy for a group that falls outside of your chain of command? Your leadership skills need to kick in more than ever, and you'll have to rely on the relationships you've built along the way to make it happen.
Your professional reputation precedes you in so many ways, and to align any key group, you'll need to make sure you've stayed true to who you are and built a strong foundation of character, success, and teamwork. They may not trust you because they haven't had a chance to work with you yet, and that's okay. It's your job to earn their trust and make sure it's abundantly clear that you're truly in this game for the right reasons – for their reasons, not yours. When you lead with integrity and genuinely believe in what the team is after, it will all come together.
Let's be honest…deep down, I hope that's how you operate every day, regardless of any org chart or reporting structure. When you're a leader, you inspire people, help them succeed, listen to their needs, and embrace their growth and best interests every day. You don't have to be the boss to make good things happen. Who you should be is the trusted professional who brings a positive outlook, a can-do approach, a willingness to learn, and a sense of partnership. Good things happen when we work with good people; we get it done together. That's teamwork and true leadership.

The history of lions in Europe is based on fossils of Pleistocene and Holocene lions excavated in Europe since the early 19th century.
The first lion fossil was excavated in southern Germany, and described by Georg August Goldfuss using the scientific name Felis spelaea. It probably dates to the Würm glaciation, and is 191,000 to 57,000 years old.
Older lion skull fragments were excavated in Germany and described by Wilhelm von Reichenau under Felis fossilis in 1906. These are estimated at between 621,000 and 533,000 years old.
The modern lion (Panthera leo) inhabited parts of Southern Europe since the early Holocene.

Historical literature, such as the Iliad of ancient Greece, features lion similes.

Characteristics
Bone fragments of fossil spelaea lions indicate that they were bigger than the modern lion and had less specialized lower teeth, reduced lower premolars and smaller incisors.

As indicated by numerous artistic depictions, modern lions in the Balkans had less developed manes, and lacked abdominal and lateral manes as well as limb hair. Οn the other hand, lions from Transcaucasia exhibited all these features.

Distribution

Pleistocene records
The oldest fossils excavated near Pakefield in the United Kingdom are estimated at 680,000 years old, and represent Panthera leo fossilis.
Lion fossils were excavated in Spain, Portugal, Italy, Belgium, France, United Kingdom, Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Russia.

Late Pleistocene Panthera spelaea bone fragments were radiocarbon dated to between the Weichselian glaciation and the Holocene, and are between 109,000 and 14,000 years old. This lion was widely distributed from the Iberian peninsula, Southeast Europe, across most of northern Eurasia into Alaska. In Eurasia, it became extinct between 14,900 and 14,100 years ago, and survived in Beringia until 13,800 to 13,300 years ago.

Holocene records
The earliest Holocene lion remains to date were excavated in Basque Country, Spain, and are about 11,600–9,000 years old, although the dating is only context-dated and therefore regarded as not too accurate. Moreover, there are doubts if this was a modern lion or a late surviving P. spelaea cave lion. Other early Holocene lion finds, come from different places of Italy and are dated to 12,000-9,000 years old.

A neolithic lion tooth fragment representing the Atlantic Period was found in Karanovo, Bulgaria, and is estimated 6,000 years old.
In Greece lions first appeared around 6,500–6,000 years ago as indicated by a front leg bone found in Philippi. Bone fragments of the modern lion were excavated in Hungary and in Ukraine's Black Sea region, which are estimated at around 5,500 to 3,000 years old. Remains were also found in Romania and European Turkey.

Historic range of Panthera leo
In Southeast Europe, the lion inhabited part of the Balkan Peninsula, up to Hungary and Ukraine during the Neolithic period. It survived in Bulgaria until the 4th or 3rd century BC. Around 1000 BC, it became extinct in the Peloponnese. It disappeared from Macedonia around the first century AD, from Western Thrace not before the 2nd century AD and from Thessaly possibly in the 4th century AD; Themistius regretted that no more lions could be furnished for beast-shows.

In Transcaucasia, the lion was present until the 10th century. The peak of its historic range covered all of the plains and foothills of eastern Transcaucasia, westward almost to Tbilisi in modern Georgia. Northwards, its range extended through the eastern Caucasus, from the Apsheron Peninsula to the mouth of the Samur River near the current Azerbaijan-Russia border, extending to the Araks river. From there, the boundary of its range narrowly turned east to Yerevan in modern Armenia, with its northern boundary then extending westward to Turkey.

In culture

Lions feature in ancient Greek mythology and writings, including the myth of the Nemean lion, which was believed to be a supernatural lion that occupied the sacred town of Nemea in the Peloponnese. Homer mentioned lions 45 times in his poems, but this could have been due to his experience in Asia Minor.
Phalaecus, a tyrant of Amvrakia (modern-day Arta), was allegedly killed by a female lion due to his holding a newborn lion cub, after finding it on a hunting expedition. Conon refers to the myth of how Olynthus city got its name, when during around the period of the Trojan War, son of Strymon, Olynthos during a lion hunt was killed by a lion. According to Herodotus lions occurred between Achelous river and Nestus, being plentiful between Akanthos and Thermi. When Xerxes advanced near Echedorus in 480 BC, the troops' camels were attacked by lions. Xenophon stated around 400 BC that lions were hunted around Mount Kissos, Pangaio, the Pindus mountains and elsewhere. Aristotle in the 4th century BC provided some data on lion distribution, behaviour, breeding and also anatomy. According to him, lions were more numerous in North Africa than in Europe; they had approached towns, and attacked people only if they were old, or had poor dental health. Pliny the Elder mentions that European lions were stronger compared to those from Syria and Africa. In the 2nd century AD, Pausanias referred to lion presence east of Nestus in Thrace, in the area of Abdera. He also referred to a story about Polydamas of Skotoussa, an Olympic winner in the 5th century BC, who allegedly used his bare hands to kill a lion on Thessalian part of Mount Olympus; and to one about Caranus of Macedon who according to the Macedonians, raised a trophy that was thrown down and destroyed by a lion that was rushing down from Mount Olympus.

The Romans used Barbary lions from North Africa for lion-baiting, and lions from Greece for gladiatorial games.

Assassin's Creed: Odyssey, a 2018 video game set during a fictionalized version of the Peloponnesian War (431 - 422 B.C.E.), depicts lions as a threatening form of wildlife in several areas of Ancient Greece.

Lea Huening Answers Whether Or Not She'd Ever Debut As An Idol Again
She promoted as an idol for three years, so here's her stance.
Amy McDonald
Though Hueningkai is a TXT member and Huening Bahiyyih is preparing to debut in the project group Kep1er, they weren't the only idols in the family. Following VIVA's debut in 2017, their older sister Lea Huening spent three years as an active idol.
Lea Huening
Since the group appeared to disband in 2019 without a formal statement, Lea Huening spoke about her idol days during an interview with &ASIAN and shared whether she'd ever return to the K-Pop spotlight.
Although Lea Huening has achieved success as a YouTuber, TikToker, model, and MC with hundreds of thousands of fans, Aimée Kwan asked if she'd ever thought about being an "idol again."
| @leanavvab/Instagram
Pleased by the path she's taken, Lea Huening responded, "I like my life right now." Still, there was a part of her that hoped to achieve even more.
Despite experiencing the ups and downs of being an idol, Lea Huening wasn't fully ready to give it up and would give it another go.
But, I still want to be an idol. Though I did it [before], it didn't work out. So if I have another chance, I want to try again.
— Lea Huening
| SHINE E&M
That doesn't mean Lea Huening is ready to drop everything just to pursue the idol life once more. She's satisfied with her life and appreciative of all the opportunities she has.
But still, I like my life right now. I have a lot of fans.
I have my company, and my YouTube channel. I'm doing great right now.
Since Lea Huening loved performing as an idol and fans enjoy her K-Pop covers, it's positive to know she's open to making a return as an idol. Maybe the three siblings could even do a special stage together?
