Nicole Goetz was our Military Child of the Year for the U.S. Air Force in 2011. We were honored to have Maggie with us this year in DC, helping to present this year's MCOY award to our Air Force recipient. We also had the chance to touch base with her recently to learn where life has taken her since we last met, including working with her good friend, Maggie Rochon, MCOY for U.S. Coast Guard 2011. (Read Maggie's update here)
In 2011, I had the honor of serving as the first Military Child of the Year for the Air Force. That Operation Homefront gala in Washington, D.C., was such a special time for me because not only did I meet one of my heroes, then first lady Michelle Obama, but I also got surprised by my forever hero, my father. My father was finishing up a year-long deployment in Afghanistan and it was his service overseas that inspired my community service on the homefront.*
A few short months after the gala, I was pursuing an international affairs degree at Emory University in Atlanta. Every class and every discussion brought me back to my father's service. During my time at school, I realized just how bad the military-civilian disconnect had become. For the most part, students, staff, and faculty had never personally interacted with an active-duty member or their family member. Most of their understanding of the active-duty service members had stemmed from what they read about or saw on TV, and a vast majority of it was never good. That was when I decided to act. With help from now-retired Gen. Norton Schwartz, former Air Force Chief of Staff, and Moody Air Force Base, we were able to assemble a panel of active-duty service members to speak to students.
I remember the day of the panel like it was yesterday. I was scared that students wouldn't show, because why would they? But with extra pleading from myself and extra credit offered from professors, the room was packed. The panel consisted of five active-duty service members: a colonel; an Army Ranger who was about our age; an explosive ordnance disposal technician who was 24 with four kids and a purple heart; a combat controller; and a young female airman who performed humanitarian missions overseas.
After I introduced each guest, I watched as students connected the material they were taught in their college classes to those on the panel. The only way I could describe what happened next was that it was magic. The air in the room was no longer cold and awkward, but warm and full of empathy.
The next moment would change my life forever. The colonel shared that he was not sure how the panel was going to be received by the students. He reflected on how the Vietnam veterans were spat on and shouted at by college students when they came home. Then he started to tear up and remarked that my generation would be dealing with 20-plus years of veterans due to our involvement in the global war on terror. Right then and there I decided that I'll be damned if I let my generation treat my father and the rest of our veterans as they did back in the 1960s and 70s. The panel was a huge success and Emory continued to host military panels and reintegration projects ever since.
From that moment, I figured my best bet at helping the military community was to work in the political sector. It was an exciting, fast-paced world. My military upbringing helped me tackle the unpredictable, tumultuous environment. I worked for organizations and campaigns from the local to national levels. It all seemed like a natural fit, until it wasn't.
I was exhausted from constantly trying to break through the glass ceiling in politics. Sexism was and is a real issue. Many of my colleagues assumed I was there to become a senator's wife, not to positively change policy. It had become a major hindrance that set me off my original purpose of serving our military and veteran community. Rather than continuing to try to chip away at the obtuse obstacle in front of me, I searched for a new angle. That angle soon revealed itself through the STEM field.
After my departure from politics, I accepted a marketing and outreach position with the Curtis Laws Wilson Library at the Missouri University of Science and Technology. This past February, I spearheaded the university's largest hackathon to date. A hackathon is a weekend-long event that brings hundreds of students from across the nation together to solve a current problem in society through the use of coding and technology. This year, we decided to focus our efforts on helping our transitioning military members, veterans, and their families. With over $20,000 from corporate sponsors and around 100 hackers, the event was a success as many new ideas and platforms were created to help assist the military and their families with reintegration. Our inaugural event set a strong precedent for next year's hackathon.
I've also been working on another project with a fellow 2011 Military Child of the Year and close friend, Maggie Rochon — creating a platform that will better connect military spouses and dependents across the different military bases and posts around the country and world.
Aside from my transitioning career, I am also transitioning from the role of military brat to military spouse. In May 2017, I married my best friend, 1st Lt. Brian Kloiber. Brian is a West Point graduate, Army diver, and a great dog dad. His kindness, patience, support, and good humor have made the transition to being a spouse a fun and somewhat seamless one despite the curveballs of military life like moving, deployments, and career sacrifices. With every challenge we have faced so far, I was reminded of how great of a team we make and how we are both each other's equals and strengths. I am excited to see what all the future has in store for us!
Obstacles and all, I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. I know I am blessed to be part of one of the best and strongest communities in the world. From growing up watching my mom be the strong and selfless super military spouse to now interacting with so many great, ambitious spouses, I am forever in awe of the service and support that spouses, dependents, and great organizations like Operation Homefront give to ensure our military members, veterans, and their families are well taken care of.
Moving forward, if I have to give advice to future winners, I'd say that it's OK if things don't work out as you plan. Things can change at the drop of a hat, dreams can shatter, and you will be thrown off course. But all that matters is how you react. If you stay true with what you are really passionate about, life has a funny way of getting you back on track.

Where Are They Now: A Visit with Maggie Rochon, MCOY, USCG, 2011

We were honored to have Maggie with us this year in DC, helping to present this year's MCOY award to our Coast Guard recipient.

Coast Guard Vice Commandant Vice Adm. Sally Brice-O'Hara, Margaret Rochon, Master Chief Petty Officer of the Coast Guard Michael P. Leavitt, Peggy Rochon and Chief Petty Officer Gene Rochon at the 2011 Military Child of the Year awards.
It's been over six years since I was honored as Military Child of the Year for the Coast Guard, and I've been through a lot of transitions since then.
As one can expect in life, not much stays the same for very long. This was a lesson that was learned and reinforced on several occasions being a military child. Within a few months after Operation Homefront's MCOY gala in Washington, D.C., I would decide where I was going to spend the next four years of my life, graduate high school, and move across the country to start on the college journey.
Moving to Ohio for school didn't seem like too big of a deal. Growing up with a parent in the military, you grow accustomed to moving every few years, so what was one more move? What I didn't know at the time was that my decision to attend The Ohio State University would be both a culture shock and a catalyst for many subsequent, major, transitions.
Growing up, no matter what new address I had to learn, or friends I had to make, or school I had to attend, I always felt a sense of comfort being surrounded by at least a few others who were also military children. There was a security blanket of sorts knowing that someone else had been in my shoes and could understand what I was going through. There was someone who knew what it was like to miss a parent that was deployed overseas, or how to start a friendship with the new kid because they were once the new kid, but college wasn't like that. I was suddenly dropped into a setting with 50,000 other people and it felt like not a single other person had even a similar life experience to mine.
The first few weeks in college were a whirlwind of learning a new place, living without my parents for the first time ever, introducing myself what felt like a thousand times, and of course getting to know all these new people. I should have been an expert at that, and thanks to every experience I had as a child, I fared pretty well, at least for the most part, but that's also when I was confronted with the gap between military families and civilian families. It started with the simple question: "Where are you from?" Well, as a military child, how do you answer that? Do I ask how they are defining "from"? Is it lying if I just name only one place? Will it be too long of an answer if I go into depth about all the places I've lived? Do I explain that I was born in one state, started school in another, and graduated high school somewhere else? But that doesn't even touch on the two other states I lived in.
I felt like I was an anomaly among peers that had never moved from the town they were born in; some had never even vacationed out of the state of Ohio. By the time I explained why I had moved so often, I had been bombarded with so many more questions about my childhood. Next thing I knew, I had to explain what my dad did, what it was like for him to deploy so often, what my childhood was like, and so on. Even at the time of my freshman year in college, my dad was deployed to the Middle East.*
While at the time it was a little isolating to be the only military kid in my friend group, I also realized there was an opportunity to help connect a part of our population with the much smaller military community. So many people shared their gratitude for what my dad did for this country and what my family sacrificed so that he could do that. It was actually amazing.
The transition from a military community to a civilian world was possibly one of the hardest transitions I've had to go through, but it was an important learning experience and opportunity that I am glad I had. The appreciation I gained for my childhood, and for what my dad did, is something I can never thank God enough for. Knowing that so many people felt touched by the service of our men and women in uniform, knowing my dad was one of them, made me so incredibly proud of this country, but especially my family.
Undergrad flew by in the blink of an eye. Even though the first year was a little tough adjusting, I found my niche, including finding friends that also were transitioning from the military life to college. In particular, I became friends with a Marine, Alex. Alex came from the Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, area, much like myself; we even had quite a few mutual friends. Alex spent four years on active duty before pursing his degree at Ohio State. We are engaged, and we've been together for four years, a part of three units, and are currently residing in the central Ohio area.
After graduating from college, I became actively engaged in state and national campaigns, and started pursing my career. I currently work as the Director of Constituent Affairs in Governor Kasich's Office, and am a graduate student at Ohio University.
Thinking back six years to the gala weekend, it's hard to believe that so much time has passed. It seems like just yesterday we were in Washington, D.C. for the event. I remember the night of the gala looking at my mom and dad, seeing how proud they were of me, and seeing that they were relieved that my dad's decision to serve our country didn't burden my childhood, but enriched and shaped who I was. There wasn't a moment that I remember more than that feeling and sharing that special time with my family.

Surprisingly, too, I met a lifelong friend that weekend, Nicole Goetz. That weekend was so overwhelming, I remember thinking that it was nice to meet so many other great, and inspiring, military kids, [but] there was no way in one weekend we would bond in such a way that we would ever be more than pen-pals. I was wrong. About halfway through our freshman year in college, Nicole messaged me on Facebook about a project she was working on. Outside of the project, it was an opportunity to connect with another military kid going through the same transition to college as I was. Now Nicole and I are dear friends and try to hang out as often as we are in the same state. We've even started working on a project this fall, an online forum to connect and share experiences among military families so whether they are across the street or across the country, they always have a friendly connection.

Gift of Grit

Isabelle Richards knows what it means to be a part of a military family. Not only is she the daughter of Senior Chief Petty Officer James Richards and Lorraine Richards, she has five older brothers, four of whom have served on active duty.
Isabelle has embraced the opportunities and challenges of military life. "Military kids get a great gift when we are born into this life. My Dad and Mom always tell us we are giving you a gift of Grit," she said. It is this grit and dedication that compelled us to select 13-year-old Isabelle as the 2018 Navy Military Child of the Year® Award recipient.
Having a front seat to the many ways that our young men and women serve, and the high costs that can be borne by them, Isabelle wanted to ensure that they never felt forgotten. She created a local call to action group/nonprofit called Cards and Cupcakes Supporting Our Wounded Warriors. Expanding the program from Southern California to the entire West Coast and Midwest, Isabelle's organization sends homemade greeting cards and cupcakes to a segment of veterans she calls "healing heroes." Students in schools across the country participate in her growing enterprise.
The countless hours she pours into Cards and Cupcakes pales in comparison to the contributions of wounded veterans, according to Isabelle, who lives by her own words. "When I am tired or feeling lazy, I remember what they sacrificed, and they never complain," she said.
Isabelle carries her message of grit and determination to others, founding and running the Dove Self-Esteem project at her school. This year, she was chosen to be a peer mentor, a highly sought position, appointed by a teacher. Peer mentors help other students deal with crisis situations and encourages them to seek assistance. Isabelle did all of this while maintaining a 4.0 GPA on a 4.0 scale.
In addition to her passions, Isabelle spends double-digit hours every week in the dance studio. She aspires to be a professional ballerina but also use her passion for dance to help others learn to express themselves unconventionally.
Isabelle feels blessed to be a part of a military family. "I am the only girl and I have a Daddy and 4 older brothers who serve and protect our country, SO lucky is a huge way I feel. I am also extremely proud of my Daddy and brothers. I am the fan club president for all of them. We learned when we were young the importance of serving others. (Every day) and a lot of special moments are sacrificed by all of them and I am happy to shout it from our mountain that my Daddy and brothers are all proud military members."
Her advice to other military kids: Embrace this great life we have. Don't dwell on the negative, find the positive. Be the example to other military kids and help them learn about this crazy roller coaster life, remember how awesome it feels on the top of the ride when you have the wind blowing in your hair and share that feeling every day!
Isabelle is the daughter of Senior Chief Petty Officer James Richards and Lorraine Richards. Her youngest brother, James Nathaniel "Nate" Richards, won the 2012 Navy Military Child of the Year® Award.

Air Force Teen Aims for the Sky, Yet Stays Grounded
Posted in Air Force, Military Child of the Year, Military Families, News, Operation Homefront, Service Members, Uncategorized, tagged #MCOY2018, military child, Military Child of the Year® 2018, month of the military child, scholarships for military kids, US Air Force on April 15, 2018| Leave a Comment »
As an Air Force child living in Europe for over a decade, Eve Glenn gained an appreciation for other cultures, people from diverse backgrounds, the importance of serving others around the globe, and … garlic mayonnaise?
All her hard work putting others before herself, and studying science, technology, engineering and math must make her hungry. When asked about traditions she has held onto from places she lived, Eve said the aioli condiment enjoyed in Germany, France, Spain, Turkey and other countries has become a staple in their Tampa, Florida, home near MacDill AFB.
Not that the 2018 Air Force Military Child of the Year® Award recipient spends much time thinking about her gastronomic preferences. A standout high school senior, she's usually too busy acing tests, volunteering, tutoring and competing in cheer and Irish dance.
If it ever starts to feel overwhelming, or when military relocations seem challenging, Eve relies on family and friends to keep her focused. "I strive to succeed in every scenario despite external and internal obstacles that may hinder success," she said. She also depends on the "strongest mental armor" she began forging when her father, Air Force Lt. Col. Richard Glenn, deployed to Iraq while she was in second grade, one of many lessons in the "art of resiliency."
Eve's favorite place to live was Stuttgart, Germany. There she met other high school students interested in STEM subjects, observed surgeries at a local hospital, and researched bacteria with a teacher. Her experiences have made her proud to represent military children: "Living abroad and befriending teenage Syrian refugees, German students and American peers; the opportunity to have such a diverse friend group stems directly from being a military child. I am most proud to be a military child because of the opportunities it has given me to embrace and continue learning to become a more worldly citizen."
Eve is modeling herself as a leader on her parents. She respects her father and other service members, asking if it were not for their "commitment and eagerness to travel wherever the United States required assistance, who would protect and preserve freedom over the hostilities of oppression and injustice?"
She credits her mom, Lori Glenn, with helping her develop a positive outlook. "I aspire to be as motivated and determined as she is one day," Eve said.
Her continued dedication will benefit her future, and likely have a positive impact on many other people too.
"As a leader, being a product of the military community has given me an opportunity to see the world through less selfish eyes, my instant connection to any new location."

Q: Session state not working in ashx file on server I have a session issue, where my handler is not reading the session values.  This ONLY occurs on our server.  When I run local, it works fine.  I'm also calling IRequiresSessionState, so that shouldn't be an issue either.
I'm able to see the session state is still working up until I call my ashx file.  Inside this file however, the session is lost, according to my trace.
Here's my javascript code I use to call my handler:
$(document).ready(function () {
        $("#<%=btnAdd.ClientID%>").uploadify({
            'uploader': '../Scripts/Uploadify/uploadify.swf',
            'script': '../Handlers/file1.ashx?mode=schedule',
            'cancelImg': '../Images/cancel.png',
            'wmode': 'transparent',
            'hideButton': true,
            'fileExt': '*.XML;*.xml;*.CIF;*.cif;*.zip;*.ZIP',
            'fileDesc': 'Schedule Files',
            'onComplete': function (event, queueID, fileObj, response, data) {
                $('#pnlOverlayFrame').show();
                document.getElementById("<%=hdnFilePath.ClientID%>").value = response;
            },
            'onAllComplete': function (event, queueID, fileObj, response, data) {
                $get('<%= hdnDirty.ClientID %>').value = '0';
                //                    document.getElementById('<%= btnConfirm.ClientID %>').click();
                document.getElementById('<%= btnUploadFiles.ClientID %>').click();
            }

            ,
            'multi': true,
            'expressInstall': '../Scripts/Uploadify/expressInstall.swf'
        });

Below is my handler .cs file code
try
            {
                HttpPostedFile postedFile = context.Request.Files["Filedata"];
                if (context.Session != null && context.Session["CurrentDirectory"] != null)
                {
                    StorageRoot = context.Server.MapPath(context.Session["CurrentDirectory"].ToString());
                }
                else
                {
                    //string DirectoryName = "OP1" + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString().Replace('/', '_').Replace(':', '_').Replace(' ', '_') + Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
                    string DirectoryName = "OP1" + "_" + String.Format("{0:yyyyMdHHmmss}", DateTime.Now) + Guid.NewGuid().ToString();

                    //DirectoryName = DirectoryName.Remove(DirectoryName.Length - 3, 3);
                    HttpContext.Current.Session.Add("CurrentDirectory", DirectoryName);
                    //context.Session["CurrentDirectory"] = DirectoryName;
                    StorageRoot = context.Server.MapPath(DirectoryName);
                }

                string filename = postedFile.FileName;
                if (!Directory.Exists(StorageRoot))
                    Directory.CreateDirectory(StorageRoot);

                postedFile.SaveAs(StorageRoot + @"\" + filename);
                context.Response.Write(StorageRoot);
                context.Response.StatusCode = 200;

            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                context.Response.Write("Error: " + ex.Message);
            }

Every time it goes in else part and create new folder as per code.
Please advice

A: I got the alternate way of handling session in ASJX file
i have pass session in 'scriptData': { 'SessionData': currentDirectory }, tag in to uploadify function and get this data in term of Form
JavascriptCode
 var currentDirectory = "";
    $(document).ready(function () {
        $("#<%=btnAdd.ClientID%>").uploadify({
            'uploader': '../Scripts/Uploadify/uploadify.swf',
            'script': '../Handlers/file1.ashx?mode=schedule',
            'scriptData': { 'SessionData': currentDirectory },
            'cancelImg': '../Images/cancel.png',
            'wmode': 'transparent',
            'hideButton': true,
            'fileExt': '*.XML;*.xml;*.CIF;*.cif;*.zip;*.ZIP',
            'fileDesc': 'Schedule Files',
            'onComplete': function (event, queueID, fileObj, response, data) {
                $('#pnlOverlayFrame').show();
                document.getElementById("<%=hdnFilePath.ClientID%>").value = response;
                currentDirectory = response;
                $("#<%=btnAdd.ClientID%>").uploadifySettings('scriptData', { 'SessionData': currentDirectory });
            },
            'onAllComplete': function (event, queueID, fileObj, response, data) {
                $get('<%= hdnDirty.ClientID %>').value = '0';
                //                    document.getElementById('<%= btnConfirm.ClientID %>').click();
                document.getElementById('<%= btnUploadFiles.ClientID %>').click();
                currentDirectory = "";
            }

            ,
            'multi': true,
            'expressInstall': '../Scripts/Uploadify/expressInstall.swf'
        });

we have set session data in onComplete event with use of below line
$("#<%=btnAdd.ClientID%>").uploadifySettings('scriptData', { 'SessionData': currentDirectory });

and get data in c# like below
string sessionValue = Convert.ToString(context.Request.Form["SessionData"])

Life in the Party
Andra Coberly
It's the phrase that many a bride-to-be has uttered: I will do it differently.
Yes, you will be a rare bride. You'll simplify. You won't stress. You will abandon tradition and shower awesomeness upon your guests in an unrivaled display of wedding originality.
However, that can all change once you realize how steeped in tradition weddings can be. Your mother will say, "But you must have a wedding cake." You'll begin worrying about cost: the mercury glass vases, the one-of-a-kind lighting display and those fire dancers. And you'll realize you actually hate Pinterest, and wedding blogs will begin to stress you out.
It can be difficult to keep up your "I will do it differently" mantra, but we believe in you. You just need to think about your reception as a blank slate.
"It's not necessarily about bucking tradition," says Wendy Jacobs Hampton of Soiree Telluride, a destination-wedding planner in the cozy mountain town. "It's about changing your perspective: Think about it as starting from scratch."
And when all else fails, remember that your reception is an expression of who you are.
"It should reflect you," she says. "When your guests leave, they should think, 'That was so them.'"
To help you out, we've culled some of the brightest minds in the Colorado wedding industry to help you do it your way:
Food/Cocktail Hour
There's certainly nothing wrong with a buffet or a plated dinner, but if you are looking to change things up, start with food. Create an eating experience that is more interactive—with food stations and a cocktail-party vibe. "Lots of couples are opting for more of a roaming cocktail reception versus a sit-down dinner," McTaggart says. "Avoiding the traditional plated/buffet dinner, couples save some money when it comes to signage and escort cards and the headache of assigning guests to tables."
Another way to change up your food is go local, go organic and go healthy. "One of the trends we are super passionate about is the farm-to-table movement, which incorporates local Colorado produce, meats and cheeses into the guests' food experience," says Heather Dwight of Calluna Events in Boulder. "There are a handful of chefs, like Blackbelly Catering and EAT Catering, who are focusing on this style of food for weddings."
And when it comes to drinking, think quality over quantity. "The signature cocktail has become standard," McTaggart says. Instead, she says, couples can add a theme to their drinks. A Colorado-theme would have all beer and wine from Centennial State breweries and wineries, and a Hollywood-inspired bar would serve up Shirley Temples, Roy Rogers, Mae Wests and Charlie Chaplins.
Cake/Desserts
If recent wedding trends have proven anything it's that the sky is the limit when it comes to sweetness. Pie bars, dessert buffets, ice cream sundaes and on and on and on. Have your caterer make a batch of bread pudding or apple cobbler if that's your favorite.
If you want to go with the classic tiered cake, you can still be original. "More than any tangible trend, I think clients are realizing that truly anything goes!" says Rachael Teufel, owner and cake designer at Intricate Icings Cake Design. "We are seeing more and more clients stray away from the norm and really choosing designs that represent who they are as a couple. Whether they are embracing a theme in every aspect of the wedding or mixing and matching the details they love, even if they don't seem to pair well at all." She predicts techy couples will even start requesting digital graphics being projected onto their cakes.
The round table is the turkey sandwich of wedding seating. It's standard, and it gets the job done. But if you are looking to change up the seating, there are plenty of options. Jacobs Hampton suggests using non-uniform tables and creating lounge areas to change up the dynamic. Add in couches and comfy chairs to create an eclectic, living room style. Dwight even suggests going as far as mixing up the types chairs: benches, ottomans, poufs and more modern or mid-century modern styles.
Décor/Details
Whether you're a slave to trends or a traditionalist, find inspiration from your life. "Couples should pull inspiration from their down-time together, their hobbies, the restaurants they like to frequent to really personalize their celebration," McTaggart says. "I'm working with a couple who enjoys hiking and hunting. Instead of floral centerpieces, we're using feathers and antlers, with some hanging moss. I worked with a couple recently that loved bowties. Their napkins were folded to look like a bowtie. As long as the couple focuses on the relationship and what is important to them, they'll find themselves bucking tradition without really thinking about it!"
Think beyond the floral centerpiece: books, old jars or containers and flea market finds. "Eclectic mixes of flowers and centerpieces of 'found objects' where every guest table is slightly different has been a trend in lieu of the more traditional look," Dwight says.
So, you ask, is there anything that's sacred?
There are plenty of wedding traditions that aren't going away, Jacobs Hampton says. Brides are still wearing their white gowns, the Colorado rusticity is still ever present and the first dance is still a must.
"Pretty much everyone does a first dance," she says. "But beyond that, nothing is off limits."
Forecasting the Reception Trends of 2015
What can we expect for this season's parties?
• More blush and neutral colors. "We are seeing a return to the traditional, elegant wedding with blush and ivory tones for florals and a neutral, blush and gray palette for bridesmaids," says Heather Dwight of Calluna Events.
• Fewer seated dinners, and more cocktail party-style receptions.
• Colorado rusticity on a whole new level. "The use of antlers, feathers, different textures and patterns is coming to the forefront," says JessicaMcTaggart of Pink Champagne Events.
• Lots of food trucks.
• Fewer traditional toasts by the maid of honor and best man. "Instead they are having group toasts where allof the bridesmaids or all of the groomsmen prepare something together," McTaggart says. "Or they're offering up an open mic for allguests to say something."
• The return of the big cake. "Our 2015 clients are certainly moving back to having one main wedding cake as the focal point of the reception—as opposed to having several different cakes and desserts available," says Rachael Teufel, owner and cake designer at Intricate Icings Cake Design. She says vintage themes will stay in vogue. "But we're seeing more modern styles with bolder patterns and colors making an appearance," she says. "Texture, ruffles and gold metallics are probably the biggest trends currently and will continue into 2015, but we'll see metallics being mixed together more in 2015 with silver and gold being combined together on one cake."
• A wilder look for centerpieces and bouquets—"with flowers having a more organic, less stylized look," Dwight says.
• The bohemian trend will continue: eclectic décor, bohemian dresses, eclectic bridesmaids dresses and, of course, flowers in the hair, Dwight says.

Defending Champions Retain Their Titles & Austria Win A Dramatic Team Final At The World Champs
World Champs
World no.1 and strong favourite Chrissie Seehofer (Austria) along with the returning Jesper Ratzer (Denmark) both managed to retain their titles at the World Championships in Zurich.
Seehofer, dominant all season, defeated Astrid Reimer-Kern (Germany) in the final, where the Austrian successfully got the 15 points at tennis she required to retain her title and continue her dominance in the women's game.
Ratzer meanwhile was forced to go searching in the bottom of his bag for his tennis racket on 3 occasions – first by his compatriot Kasper Jonsson, then by a spirited performance by the young Brit Leon Griffiths before a very competitive, high quality final against world no.1 Lukas Windischberger. Ratzer came through unscathed however to add another world title to his list of incredible achievements in the sport.
While in the Team competition, Austria were victorious in perhaps the closest ever World Championship Team final as they defeated Great Britain in a dramatic Friday night match that was broadcast live on Swiss TV.
A full, detailed report of the World Championships will be published here soon.

The one's that got away
Are the crack appearing in Chelsea's long standing transfer policy?
As history shows, it is never an easy job to defend the Premier League title. Chelsea know this all too well.
The club claimed two successive titles in Mourinho's first spell, and alongside Sir Alex Ferguson's Manchester United side, they are the only clubs to successfully retain a Premier league title. However, it seems that in the 'new era' of the mega-bucks Premier League defending the crown is becoming a mammoth task, with no club managing it in the last decade. No matter how successful a title winning squad may seem, dare to resist change and you will be blown aside by up to five hungry competitors hot on your heels.
To be fair to Chelsea, no amount of preparation could have equipped them for Pep Guardiola's remarkable Manchester City side. This is no normal season. However, despite the successes of City, the cracks are beginning to appear in the complex structure at the Bridge, with a very frustrated Antonio Conte at the forefront of it.
Chelsea remain in a respectable position. The Blues currently sit at third in the table, having coming through a gruelling festive schedule unbeaten. Conte's side appear to be breathing down the necks of Mourinho's United in second place, and many of the UK's top pundits fancy them as favourites for the 'best of the rest' tag. They face Barcelona in the last sixteen of the Champions League and are in the semi-finals of the league cup. Yet, things are not as rosy behind the scenes at Chelsea. Fans are becoming disillusioned with the clubs firm transfer policy, and Conte, himself, is increasingly becoming more of a misfit at Cobham as he continues in a war of words with the board.
Although the club have brought home three league titles and a European crown in the last decade, loyal Chelsea fans are beginning to become concerned with the clubs transfer policy, which has seen the likes of Kevin De Bruyne, Mohammed Salah and Romelu Lukaku slip through the net, amongst others.
It is a well-known fact that Chelsea aim to poach the best young talent from around the globe with the hope of selling on for profit. Their youth teams have become some of the most dominant sides in the country, with both national and European successes. However, the lack of opportunities for such players has been bemoaned for many years now. Their loan system has been lucrative at best, controversial at worst, with the club currently having a gargantuan 38 players out on loan - many of them established international players. The man responsible for the model is former technical director Michael Emenalo, who resigned from his role in November. Emenalo was a difficult figure for the Chelsea fans to take to, and his exit was sparked a popular reaction amongst Blues fans despite all his successes.
Emenalo was, in theory, in charge of all transfers and recruitment at Chelsea and despite popular opinion, he served as an ally of Antonio Conte throughout the well-documented tensions during the summer. Emenalo's exit was no victory for Conte, as he acted as a buffer between the first team and the board where clear divisions exist. Conte struggles to see eye to eye with Roman Abramovich's sidekick Marina Granovskaia, who deals with club operations on a day to day business. Emenalo, who has now taken up a director role at AS Monaco, oversaw seven managers in as many years in his time at Chelsea, however he almost became a pantomime villain for Chelsea fans in the latter months of his tenure, as supporters deem him responsible for the sales of talented youngsters like Nathan Ake and Nathaniel Chalobah, as well as the loan exit of the promising Ruben Loftus-Cheek.
The lack of desire to afford opportunities to some of the clubs most promising young players has consistently caused issues in the last decade, regardless of manager. This raises the concern that the board are unwilling to play ball with the long term development of academy players, despite their ongoing successes at respective youth levels. This in addition to the reluctance to keep players who are now terrorising their own defences, have left fans exasperated at the lack of change.
Kevin De Bruyne and Mohammed Salah are both in the running for this seasons player of the year, leaving Blues fans with the thought of 'what could have been?'. Former striker and summer target Romelu Lukaku spurned a chance of re-joining the club in favour of challengers Manchester United, which made the decision to sell anchor-man Nemanja Matic to their rivals all the more bizarre. Then you look at Juan Cuardado, Ryan Bertrand, Juan Mata and Nathan Ake as players who would likely feature prominently in Conte's current system, if they were only given the chance when on the books.
It raises the question, is the current structure sustainable? The silverware sitting at Stamford Bridge would suggest so. However, you get the feeling that many Chelsea fans are missing out when they see the national team flooded with young stars from their rivals such as Tottenham and Manchester United. The bond created between fans and a local player is one that has been adored in football for many years, and Chelsea fans will continue to miss out on this if there is not a change of attitude at the very top.
Local reports state that recently sacked Hull City boss Leonord Slutsky is lined up as Emenalo's replacement, a close friend of Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich. It is unclear if this will be a step forward or back for Chelsea's complex structure at this moment in time. Conte continues to suggest he is detached from transfer activity at the club, whilst also bemoaning 'I rarely get the players I want'. The Italian has had over £300m worth of reinforcements arrive at the Bridge since his arrival in summer 2016, and Ross Barkley will be next in the door later this week. With Conte admitting he is not in charge of recruitment just this week, and his trusted friend Emenalo no longer in place to communicate to the board, things could get messy at Chelsea.
Looking at the recent history of the job, it is hard to suggest that Conte will stay in his role for years to come. The enigmatic character stole the hearts of the Premier League throughout last season, yet his public disputes with popular figures such as Diego Costa and David Luiz will only damage his case going forward. If the latter does follow his countryman out the door, and although Chelsea never struggle to replace such players, how long can such a reciprocal process continue?
Let's not get this wrong, Chelsea are and will remain a phenomenal team at the top end of the British and European game. However, as many clubs turn to long term vision, can the same be said for the Blues?

These things are ALL OVER IOWA.
It's beautiful, it's wonderous, it is GLORIOUS. Best thing I've come across on the internet in a LONG time.
I have an upstairs toilet. My main bathroom is downstairs. Upstairs is just something closet sized, with just a toilet. No sink. A light, and a very old toilet that needs replacing. It is so old it is Harvest Gold and Avacado Green. Really.
I saw this, the sink on top of the tank, and realized it would make the upstairs emergency bathroom much more functional! It is a sink on top of the tank, uses the water straight from the source, and then drains into the tank, filling it.
So not only do I now have ROOM for a sink, it is a money saver, and it's green, too! I'm pretty happy, it seems to be just in the $100 range, which is more than reasonable to add a sink AND save water.
The new camera I got for cheap-cheap at Shopko seems to be working nicely. For $55, can't beat the quality, if you ask me. This is a mini iris in my front yard, so this is a macro.


David Perron (left) scored a goal for the highlight reels on Saturday, Nov. 21 vs. the New York Islanders (Getty Images).
Days after David Perron scored a highlight reel goal vs. the New York Islanders, people around the league were still talking.
With one goal in the game already, Perron took a pass from Carlo Colaiacovo and split two defenders, then passed the puck between his legs to fool Islanders' defenseman Mark Streit. With one guy left to beat, Perron cut across and swept the puck past Islanders' netminder Dwayne Roloson.
"We practice those kind of moves," Perron said after the game. "You react to what's open, what's available. It worked, so it was fun. I'm glad it worked out tonight."
Perron said in terms of individual achievements, the goal ranks pretty high for him.
Said teammate Patrik Berglund: "That's (Perron's) dangling skills. He shows that every day at practice, and finally he got a hot goal like that."


Terrazzo is a man made stone made using natural stone chip pieces which are then set into cement or epoxy medium. Epoxy terrazzo is much more durable than cement madium and it is the floor of choice of many supermarkets, hospitals, train stations and many other areas which experience high footfall of traffic. Even though it is durable terrazzo can still suffer chipping and holes. By using diamond grinding and polishing techniques it can be fully restored to its natural beauty. We can leave either a honed mat finish, Semi polished our fully polished. The choice is yours.
See below an example of a Terrazzo floor restored by Floor Cleaning Company.


We're making new connections with new organizations everyday to help them bring more resources to their members and employees! While this list continues to grow, here is just a quick look at all of the places we've been.

Tekijät William Shakespeare
Tietoja tästä kirjasta
PRESENT EDITION.
The first edition of "The Works of Shakespeare," which I superintended some years ago, having been exhausted, I have, with all the care and diligence of which I was capable, prepared a second impression, with such improvements as seemed called for by the quantity and character of the information acquired in the interval.
The sketch of the history of our dramatic literature and the stage, to the time of Shakespeare, required no material change ; but some points have been farther illustrated, and a few corrections have been introduced.
The Life of Shakespeare continues very nearly in the shape in which it formerly appeared; but various novel matters have been inserted in the places to which they belong, and no industry has been spared to render the whole accurate, perspicuous, and complete. The index appended to this portion of the work is a new feature; and it will not be unacceptable, since it will enable the reader to turn at once to any particular event in the career of our great dramatist, or to any important incident in the theatrical history of the period in which he lived. It necessarily embraces not a few circumstances connected with his literary and dramatic contemporaries, whenever those circumstances could be said to bear upon any point of the biography of Shakespeare. Some fresh, and not uninteresting light is thrown upon the origin of his family in Warwickshire; and as I was the first to establish that he had a grandfather, so I have since been fortunate enough to discover the particulars of that grandfather's will, with the number and names of his children. Hence we learn that John Shakespeare was his eldest son, and that his youngest son was named William, so that our great dramatist was, doubtless, christened after his uncle. Richard Shakespeare, the father of John, and the grandfather of our poet, was by trade a turner, and having previously, as there is good reason to believe, resided at Snitterfield, died at Rowington as late as 1592.
Whether the Edward Shakespeare, of whom the reader of these pages will hear for the first time, were descended from Richard Shakespeare, of Snitterfield and Rowington, is a matter that, in the present state of our information, it is impossible to decide ; but in the parish register of Cripplegate he is designated "player," and the death of his "base-born" child is there recorded in August, 1607. The Fortune theatre was situated in that parish, and it seems not unlikely that Edward Shakespeare was an actor in an establishment, erected in competition with those in which our great dramatist was always interested.
Another point I have been able, I think upon sufficient evidence, to prove is certainly not less valuable, in relation to the lyrical productions of Shakespeare. I refer to those poems which were inserted in "The Passionate Pilgrim " of 1599, to which it has hitherto been supposed Richard Barnfield had a prior claim. It will be seen that Barnfield's title is disputed on more than probable grounds; and, therefore, that these poems may hereafter be received as the offspring of the mind of a much loftier poet. Of the manner in which Barnfield, in fact though not in words, repudiated them, I was not aware when I formerly adverted to that part of the subject'.

In the 10th century, the Piast Dukes united the Polanie tribes into the nation of Poland. They diversified their society into agriculturally varied tasks as artisans, craftsmen, defense, and economic work. Trade was essential to the survival of the Poland. Earlier European tribes had used bartering as the means of exchanging goods, but all exchanges required assignment of some value to the products. Sometime weapons, such as arrow tips were used as currency. Later, metals became monetary equivalents for the valued products.
Archeologists discovered evidence of currencies in the 6th century BCE [Before Common Era, same as Before Christian Era = BC] in Greece, southern Ukraine, Scythia, and the Black Sea coast. Bronze coins were minted in Athens by the 5th century BCE that were struck in dolphin shapes. Later silver coins appeared that were cast as arrow tips. By the 4th century BCE, silver and copper coins appeared in Greece. The commercial use of coins became widespread and were circulated among the traders. Later during the Roman period, gold, silver, and brass coins were minted that were struck with the names and likenesses of the rulers.
By the 3rd century CE [Common Era same as Christian Era = AD], the so-called "barbaric tribes" began to mint imitations of Roman coins utilizing either brass or silver. Thrace [ancient region in the eastern Balkan Peninsula] minted imitations of Roman coins and later the Huns followed that practice in the 4th centuries. A mixture of currencies circulated between the Byzantines, Persians, Greeks, and Huns.
In the 10th century, the Kievan Rus issued currencies of gold and silver coins that were struck with the images of the Princes Vladimir, Jaroslav, among others. But, the Rus also utilized other European and Byzantine currencies in their commercial affairs. Grivnas were minted, as were other coins of fractional values, i.e., the ruble. By the 13th century, when the Mongol/Tatars invaded, Ukrainian currencies were too debased to be traded. Ukrainian currencies included those minted for Lithuania, Central Ukraine, and the Crimea. In Western Ukraine, Polish coins were often circulated. Sometimes, Turkish coins were circulated. By the 15th – 18th centuries, over-stamped coins were minted from the currencies of neighboring nations, because there was insufficient precious metal for creating new currencies.
Polish coins were first struck during the second half of 10th century. Previously, foreign currencies had been used, as well as bartering of goods, which continued until the 13th century.  However, in the 12th century unique Polish coins were minted with Hebrew letters. The Denar Brakteat with the likeness of Prince Miesko III was struck 1181-1202. Unfortunately, the metal weight and size of the denars was continually reduced until they were so thin that only one surface could be struck. Only a fraction of the original metal remained and the coins became severely devalued.
The Piast Brakteat with Hebrew inscription was the rarest and most unusual coin of the period. One example showed a figure with a sword and spear; beside it was struck the Hebrew word, "Bracha," which meant "blessing." Hebrew lettering ensured that traders at distant cities and ports, could recognize the Polish coins.
Silver coins were introduced as currency in Poland by the first Polish duke, Mieszko I. He valued silver coins according to the following standards: One pound equaled 367 grams of silver, from which 240 denars (called thick) were produced. During the political turmoil of 11th century, the coins lost value and had to be replaced during the latter half of the century.
A new system was introduced based on one grzywna (a weight unit) equivalent to approximately one Carolingian (French) pound. The new currency valuation was: one grzywna equaled four wiardunki skojce, which equaled 240 denars or 480 halfdenars (obol). But only denars, called thin, were struck. The thickness of coins decreased so that by the end of the 13th century, they were so thin that only one side of a coin could be struck. Coins were neglected and seen as a way of making high profits for the issuer by removing much of the metal from the currency.
In the 14th century, Casimir the Great created a new currency, which was based upon the grosz (grosh) that was utilized in Europe. One Kracovian grzywna consisted of 197 grams of silver. It was equal to four wiarunki, which was 24 skojce and equaled 48 groszy (grosh). The polgroszy (half grosh) equaled 96 denars.
Hungarian gold coinage was used for the most valuable transactions, but they also became debased. Other foreign coins of lesser value were accepted for use in Poland, but this was not consistent in all regions. Prussia and Lithuania utilized completely different coinage, which resulted in considerable commercial uncertainty.
The Polish monetary system was reformed in 1526 – 1528 and a new currency, the złoty, was minted: one grosh equaled 0.77 grams of silver; one złoty equaled five szostakow, 10 trojakow, or 30 grosh. One grosh equaled two half grosh, three szelag or six ternars, which equaled 18 denars.
The system was implemented in Prussia (1538) and in Lithuania (1569). Gold ducats containing 3.5 grams of gold were struck. In 1564 silver talars were introduced. The coin was meant to be equal to one golden ducat. One thalar equaled five orts, which was a stable currency until the beginning of 17th century.
During the reign of Zygmunt III the coins were debased again. Worthless German coins were imported, which replaced the melted Polish coins. In the second half of the 17th century after the war with Sweden, the coinage was devalued even further. In 1659, Boratyni was granted a license to strike copper szelags. In 1663, low-valued złoty were issued that contained only half of the amount of silver content of the royal coinage. Therefore, the coins were valued empirically rather than by their actual appraised value. That system remained in place until the end of the reign of Saxon elector kings in Poland (1763). During the seven-year war (1756 – 1763), the Prussians obtained the official dies and were able to strike counterfeit coins of very low intrinsic value.
Another official reform was required. In 1766 the new coinage was introduced; based upon the Kolognian grzywna. One Kolognian grzywna equaled 233.8 grams of silver, which in turn equaled 10 thalars or 80 złoty. After 1786, the grzywna was 83.5 złoty. One gold ducat equaled 16.75 złoty; after 1786 it was worth 18 złoty.
Thalers had been minted since the 15th century, but Maria Theresa's very strict standards were to be adhered to in the minting. Large silver deposits had been discovered in the St. Jachimsthal Valley of Bohemia, from which the coins were struck. By Imperial decree of the Hapsburg court in the 16th century, the Count of Schlick of Bohemia was given the rights to mine silver and mint the coins of the realm. From the German word, thal, which meant valley, came the name of their new coin, thaler. In later centuries, the American currency was based upon the dollar, a word derived from the name thaler. The MTT became the leading global currency by the time of Maria Theresa's death in 1780. It remained the most widely used global currency during the 18th and 19th centuries.
Banknotes were first attempted in Poland during the reign of Stanislaw August Poniatowski 1764 – 1795). However, notes were in circulation only during the short period of the insurrection of Kosciuszko in 1795. The previous coinage was continually struck in the Warsaw Duchy. In 1815, the system was changed slightly and one Kolognian grzywna was valued at 84 złoty.
In 1834, the Kolognian grzywna was replaced by the Russian pound, which was valued at 409.5 grams of silver. Double denominations were introduced: 10 złoty equivalent to 1.5 rubles; one złoty equivalent to 30 grosh or 15 kopek.
In 1857, during the Austrian reign in Galicia, the "złoty renski waluty"  gold coin was briefly used. The name of the currency was abbreviated, "złr." It was sometimes called a florin or gulden, which were the names of the Austrian currency. The special "złr" currency of Galicia was named the "waluta Austriacka," currency of the Austrian standard monetary system, and was used from 1857 to 1899. Both currencies were used in Austria, but the "złr" was circulated mostly in Eastern Occupied Galicia.
Russian rubles were introduced into circulation in 1842. That system lasted until the end of World War I (1919). In the other parts of Poland, which had been annexed by Prussia and Austria, sovereign coins were used respectively. As mentioned above, the złoty became the traditional currency of Poland in the 15th century. In 1496, the Sejm declared the official monetary unit of one Polish Złoty would equal 30 Prague groschen. It was called the Polish grosz. Thirty Polish grosz equaled one "Polish Golden" or "Złoty Polski."  However, another Polish currency existed, which was known as the "Red Golden" or "Złoty Czerwony." A paper certificate was issued, the "Jeden Rubel Srebrem,"  which was valued at "one silver ruble." Złoty were valued by a gold standard. All three countries introduced gold coins in the latter half of 19th century.
The monetary chaos of World War I lasted until 1922. Although since 1918 the Polish mark was legal tender, still Austrian, German, and Russian money was used.
A new złoty system was introduced in Poland in 1924 to reverse the hyperinflation that had occurred during World War I. The złoty denomination has remained the official currency. One złoty equaled 100 grosh and contained 0.1687 grams of gold. However, after a brief period of stabilization, the złoty's valuation was again weakened by World War II.
In 1995 Polish currency was devalued again, 10,000 old złoty were equivalent to one new złoty. New coins were issued in 1990; new banknotes in 1992. But, the banknotes were not distributed until January 1, 1995.  The new reform brought coins back to life. Since early 1990's, coins were non-existent in the transactions due to their very small value.

Microsoft 365 Vs Google Workspace
When it comes to cloud-based productivity tools in the workplace, you generally have two options: Google Workspace (formerly G Suite) and Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365). Although chances are you've used one or the other, maybe even both! you may be wondering which one is best for your business.

Pollution-busting shrubs on trial
SHRUBS are set to be planted in Henley town centre to tackle air pollution.
Environmental campaign group Henley in Transition and Henley in Bloom plan to install 30 troughs of elaeagnus ebbingei.
The plants have rough leaves which catch pollutants from exhaust fumes. These are then washed away when it rains.
Two planters were installed on the corner of Hart Street and Duke Street on Saturday for a trial. Councillor Stefan Gawrysiak said: "We want to know what people think."
Mayor Glen Lambert said: "Planting trees and shrubs is a very simple thing that anyone can do. It can only do good to suck up particulates.
"It's also good for wildlife and the town's economy as it makes it look nicer and with more of them it will look even better."
In March, the town council's transport strategy group discussed placing troughs containing Portuguese laurel along Duke Street, Bell Street and Greys Road and up to 10 trees in Hart Street.
This was one of a number of measures designed to improve air quality in the town centre, where levels of nitrogen dioxide in some streets are 50 per cent higher than Air Quality England's target limit of 40 micrograms per cubic metre.

LAKE FOREST, CA (July 24, 2015) – In recent years, there have been revolutionary changes in homebuilding and home sales thanks to home automation technologies. In fact, these technologies have evolved into an effective sales tool for many of the nation's premier homebuilders, allowing them to "differentiate and distinguish" their offerings from those of their competitors.
This trend should come as no surprise, given the constantly growing increase in smart home technology; consumer interest in smart homes is growing dramatically every year. According to a Berg's Insight smart home and automation report, North America recorded strong growth in the smart home market during 2014. The installed base of smart home systems in the region increased by 75% to reach 10.2 million at the year-end. Also, according to a recent Consumer Electronics Association report, home security is a key component of home automation technologies – 36% of the households with these smart home systems have a security product installed.
Not surprisingly, one of the most sought-after elements of today's digital home among homebuyers is the electronic lock. Over the last five or six years, there have been huge technological advances in the world of door locks, each of which has increased the value of locks as an effective home-sales tool.
Some of the advances in today's smart locks that are of particular interest to today's homebuyer include: re-key technology, which provides the flexibility for homeowners to re-key their own locks quickly and easily, without having to remove the locks from the door; the ability to use and assign personal codes to allow home access; the ability for locks to wirelessly talk with other devices in the home; and the ability to remotely communicate with and control the lock.
