when we read our poems?
I am unplugged today. There will be little work, but a whole lot of reading. It is cold right now, but the sun is shining brightly, and the forest is calling.
Yes, I will take my camera. See you soon.
As you know I love the mountains, even though I'm not able to spend as much time there as I would like. And I love writing about them, and walking around observing nature. Walking is one of my hobbies too. So I've decided that for the next few days, I will post poems about walking in nature, and especially in the mountains.
I believe that nature can bring great healing to us, in both body and spirit.
I often think and pray while I walk, and I'll share some of that as well.
Welcome, to my Mountain Walking series.


Two studies out this week confirm that the glaciers of West Antarctica have begun to slip into the Amundsen Sea. Scientists estimate it could take 200 years for the ice sheet to completely melt. Glaciologist Ian Joughin tells us what this could mean for rising sea levels.

Businessmen reject ban on perishable food export
PM for exploiting salt, pharma export potential
Inflation shoots up to 9%
Jump follows significant increase in prices of food, electricity and fuel

ISLAMABAD:
Inflation rate shot up to 9% in September 2021 due to a significant increase in prices of food, electricity and fuel items, beating government and market expectations for a moderate inflationary pace.
Prices of those commodities that have a direct bearing on the daily lives of people increased more, even as the government continued to defend itself by quoting prices of goods in other countries in the weakening Pakistan currency.
The Consumer Price Index (CPI)-based inflation rate rose to 9% for the third successive month compared to a year ago, the Pakistan Bureau of Statistics (PBS) reported on Friday. It was the highest inflation rate in three months.
The Ministry of Finance and market surveys suggested around 8.4% inflation rate for September. The month-on-month inflation rate spiked to 2.1% in September over August - the highest in 15 months.
Inflation accelerated to 9.1% in urban areas and to 8.8% in villages, according to the PBS.
Food inflation spiralled in cities to 10.8% and in villages and towns it remained at the previous level of 9.1%.
PBS reported nearly 45% increase in prices of chicken, around 40% rise in prices of cooking oil, one-third increase in egg rates and nearly 20% increase in prices of wheat flour in September over the corresponding month a year ago.
On a month-on-month basis, wheat flour prices rose 10% despite Finance Minister Shaukat Tarin's promise to bring prices down to Rs55 per kg. There was over 15% increase in sugar prices.
Prices of essential food items have been increasing in double digits for a long time despite clear focus of Prime Minister Imran Khan to curb the increase.
The surge came amid a sharp fall in the value of the rupee in three months to Rs170.6 to a dollar on Friday. On May 3, the rupee had traded at Rs153.36 to a dollar, which lost Rs17.2, or 11% of its value, in just four months.
The reduction in the rupee value is pushing up the cost of every imported commodity including wheat, sugar, cooking oil, crude oil and raw material for industries.
Tarin on Friday said petrol prices in Pakistan were cheaper than the rest of the region and the world, adding that only 16 countries had lower prices - all of them being oil producers themselves.
He converted these prices into Pakistani currency. If calculated in Indian rupee-dollar parity, the per litre petrol price in Pakistan was $1.73 - the highest in the region, compared to $1.4 per litre in India and $1.2 in Bangladesh.
Similarly, Pakistan's per capita income is $1,540, which in India is $1,947 and in Bangladesh it is $2,100.
The finance minister said that prices of other essential items were being impacted all over the world due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
"We have been affected by that as well because we have become a food importer. We did not become a food importer in only three years but we have been facing the consequences of inadequacies in the agriculture sector for the last 30 years," said the finance minister.
Non-food inflation rate increased to 8.1% in urban areas and to 8.5% in rural areas in September, according to the PBS.
Core inflation - calculated by excluding food and energy items - inched up to 6.4% in urban areas last month, reported the national data collecting agency.
The food group saw an almost double-digit increase in prices in September compared to the same month a year ago.
Within the food group, prices of non-perishable food items rose 11.1% on an annualised basis and prices of perishable goods increased 15.3%, according to the PBS.
Inflation rate for the housing, water, electricity, gas and fuel group - having one-fourth weight in the basket - increased to 8.9% last month.
Average prices for clothing and footwear, and transportation groups rose 10% in September. In the non-food group, the prices of liquefied hydrocarbons increased nearly 54%, electricity 22.3% and petrol 17.6%.
The average inflation rate for the July-September period increased to 8.6% - slightly above the target. The average inflation rate in urban areas was 8.7% and in rural areas it was 8.4%.

Nurses at the bedside must balance hands-on patient care with an ever-increasing need to manage medical technology – all while electronically documenting every activity and observation. With Honeywell workflow solutions, you'll equip your clinicians with tools that increase productivity and simplify their day, so they can focus on patient care.
WoW cart barcode scanning may be common throughout your hospital today, but are your clinicians really equipped to handle growing pressures for more efficiency, more data collection, and better electronic records? With Honeywell solutions, they can be.
Honeywell WoW cart solutions dramatically improve the way clinicians use barcode scanners at the bedside. For example, nurses using the Honeywell Xenon™ cordless barcode scanner quickly discover that mounting the scanner in an elevated, forward-facing orientation allows them to fully benefit from the scanner's "presentation mode" feature.
Presentation mode scanning is faster because it eliminates the need to squeeze the trigger, and frees the second hand for quickly handling items.
What's the leading defense against mislabeled specimens? Bedside printing. Honeywell's WoW cart-mounted or wall-mounted PB22 printer is the ideal solution for specimen labeling at the bedside. And in some applications, a wall-mounted PC23d printer is even more versatile for in-room printing.
Both WoW carts and mobile handheld devices are commonly used for the meds admin workflow. See new Honeywell technologies that revolutionize the way nurses verify medications at the bedside.
Mobile device convergence in healthcare is transforming the way hospitals deliver care. Take the power of a barcode-capable handheld computer. Combine it with the functionality and user experience of a smartphone, plus the variety of emerging healthcare mobile applications.
The result: The clinical smartphone.
Today's mobile clinicians can now have full access to patient data, medical device status, clinical alarm events, and secure care team communication whenever and wherever they are in the hospital. All without being tethered to a desktop or WoW cart computer.
Contact us for more about streamlining your nursing workflows and enhancing patient care at the bedside with Honeywell.


Entercom Communications Corp,, which has flown under the radar in its Bala Cynwyd headquarters, has merged with CBS Radio.
Revenues at CBS Radio stations fell 6 percent in the fourth quarter and a turnaround isn't expected until late 2018, Bala Cynwyd radio giant Entercom Communications Corp. said on Thursday.
"We are only 100 days into this transformation and these things take time," Entercom CEO David Field told analysts. He added that he remained optimistic about radio and still considers acquiring more stations.
Entercom closed on its $4 billion deal for CBS Radio last November, including six CBS Radio stations in the Philadelphia market. More than 100 million people listen to Entercom/CBS Radio stations nationwide.
Entercom's revenue almost doubled to $246.6 million because of the consolidation of the CBS Radio stations in the fourth quarter into its operations. Net income available to Entercom common shareholders swelled exponentially to $232.4 million from $10.8 million in the prior-year quarter — but because of a huge noncash benefit from President Trump's tax overhaul.
Company executives and Wall Street analysts noted the difficulty of comparing Entercom's profits and revenues for the fourth quarter because of the timing of the CBS Radio deal, federal tax law changes, millions of dollars in merger-related costs, and asset sales.
"We fully understood that CBS Radio was performing weakly and that job No. 1 was turning that around," Field said.
Entercom shares were down 4.39 percent, or 45 cents, to close at $9.80. The stock's 52-week high is $14.65 a share.
The radio industry generally is dealing with a crisis of its own making after station groups gorged on debt to build themselves into big corporations after the 1996 rewrite of the federal telecommunications laws. Those station groups then ran into hard times when ad growth slowed, and new platforms — satellite and digital — drained listeners away from over-the-air radio.
Sirius XM, a satellite-delivered subscription radio service, is trading near its 52-week high, closing at $6.48.
Cumulus Media Inc., one of the nation's largest radio station group owners, filed for bankruptcy protection in late 2017. The nation's largest group, Texas-based iHeartMedia Inc., has been attempting to restructure its billions of dollars in debt and is expected to file for bankruptcy protection.
Entercom's revenues in the first quarter at the nation's second-largest radio station group are "pacing down" about 3 percent, Field said. But, he added, "We are making excellent progress on our goals."

Good morning everyone! I have a quick and easy recipe to share with you guys today. I made these about a month ago and haven't had the chance to touch up the post until now. I present to you – banana pancakes made in the blender!
This recipe was simple and made the most perfect, round pancakes. However, they were a bit flat, so next time I'll either amp up the leavening agents just a bit, or add less almond milk. The texture is different than my normal pancakes in that it's more dense, and the banana flavour is distributed evenly throughout. I prefer chunks of fluffy "banana marshmallows"! Drizzled in maple and served with berries, this batch was still devoured!
Blend rolled oats until they are a fine flour.
Add other ingredients (except coconut oil) into the blender and blend for approximately 30 seconds.
Let the batter rest for 10-20 minutes and cook in coconut oil.
Serve immediately with fresh fruit and maple syrup, plus any other toppings you desire. This recipe makes 6 pancakes.
You can find my other pancake recipes on my pancake page HERE, including the recipe for my all-time favourite everyday pancakes (which I am enjoying as I type this right now!). I seriously love pancakes!
How often do you use the blender?

Latina cardiologist puts women's heart health in the spotlight

Dr. Maribel Hernandez was recognized as a Go Red Champion at the American Heart Association's annual Go Red for Women luncheon on May 11 for her work as a cardiologist and advocate for women's heart health

Latina cardiologist puts women's heart health...
Heart attacks and other cardiovascular issues are the leading cause of death for female adults in the U.S., yet many women—and medical professionals—are not aware of the specific risks and symptoms associated with cardiovascular disease. But one Latina cardiologist has been leading the way in shedding light on what heart disease looks like in women, and what can be done to recognize and treat it sooner.
For her advocacy work and medical expertise, Dr. Maribel Hernandez was featured as a speaker on May 11 as a Go Red Champion at the American Heart Association's 15th annual Go Red for Women luncheon, hosted this year at the Crystal Tea Room in Center City, Philadelphia with nearly 1,000 supporters in attendance. Dr. Hernandez was previously named the AHA Women of the Heart award winner at the same event in 2013, and has been recognized and honored by other organizations for her outreach in heart education for all women, especially Latinas.
"It's a very great honor to be the representative of the American Heart Association, specifically the Go Red for Women campaign, since the purpose of the campaign is to educate women about heart problems in women," said Dr. Hernandez of her recognition. In speaking at the event, Dr. Hernandez, a cardiologist specialized in electrophysiology for arrhythmia, represented not only the American Heart Association and the Go Red for Women campaign, but also the Lankenau Heart Institute and the Mainline Health System.
Women's heart risks ignored
The disparity in research focus and resources for heart disease in women as opposed to heart conditions in men caught Dr. Hernandez's attention while she was at Stanford studying cardiology - a specialization she chose due to her interest in the use of both medicine and technology in treating heart conditions. She discovered that women have unique risks for and symptoms of heart problems, but those risks are often ignored by women and medical professionals alike in favor of the more "traditional" risks and symptoms — despite the fact that heart attacks and strokes kill one in three women, more than all cancers combined, according to AHA data.
"As a cardiologist, I realized that women's problems were being ignored," she noted, describing how she began volunteering on her own time twenty years ago to educate women about female heart health and heart problems.
"The problem that we have is that neither women nor many doctors take into account those risks, and so one of the messages for me today is for all women and Latina women is to first of all, get to know your risk," said Dr. Hernandez. "When you go to the doctor, ask them, do I have any risk for heart problems? If you have symptoms and they're not paying attention to it, look for another doctor and another opinion. For Latina women specifically, we have a problem with lack of activity and exercise, and obesity, and that increases the risk for heart problems."
According to the cardiologist, some of the risk factors for heart attacks and other cardiovascular problems unique to women include: premature menopause, in the case of women who have had surgery or for some reason experience menopause at an earlier age, women who have had problems and complications with pregnancy, preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, hypertension, women who have had radiation or chemotherapy treatment for breast cancer, and women who have autoimmune or inflammatory diseases such as lupus.
These conditions are risk factors for women in addition to traditional risks, which include hypertension, diabetes, cholesterol, smoking, obesity, and lack of activity.
Schooling doctors, medical professionals
It is not only women whom Dr. Hernandez has worked to educate about risk factors for heart health. She noted that improving education for all medical professionals about women's heart health "has been part of my mission."
"I'm the director of a women's heart program in my hospital, and we have programs to educate doctors and nurses and all of the personnel — nurse practitioners, medical assistants — because everyone needs to be aware that women have special risks, and can also experience symptoms that are different from what men experience," she said.
Dr. Hernandez said her path to the medical profession was not easy, but perseverance and support in the form of loans and scholarships from Yale University, where she completed her undergraduate degree, and Stanford University, where she attended medical school, helped her achieve her dreams even though she did not have a wealth of economic resources, and grew up in Puerto Rico in a family of "few means."
As a Puerto Rican and Latina, Dr. Hernandez said the recognition is especially meaningful.
"It's...an honor for Latinas, because there are few women cardiologists, and even fewer who are Latina women. So I see myself as representing not just myself but all Latina women," Dr. Hernandez said of the honor.

We're only a few days away from what is sure to be one of the most memorable performances of the year when Lady Gaga headlines Sunday's Super Bowl halftime show in Houston, Texas. The six-time Grammy winner has been busy preparing for the most jam-packed 12-minute performance of her career and thankfully she has been taking her fans along for the ride.
Gaga has been giving fans a backstage look at rehearsals for Sunday's halftime show for the past few weeks, posting pictures and videos from Houston, including this very cute moment when she and her mom performed coordinated end zone cartwheels.
Now, Pepsi, the official sponsor of the Halftime Show, has released two new videos from Gaga's intense rehearsals.
Gaga's manager Bobby Campbell praises his artist's incredible work ethic in the first clip. "She's training for this just like an athlete. She stops at nothing to deliver a once in a lifetime performance," says Campbell.
While not much is known about Gaga's upcoming halftime show, including the set list or whether there will be any surprise guest performers, we do know that Gaga is ready to take flight.
During an interview with Boston radio station Karson & Kennedy earlier this week, Gaga confirmed that she will be suspended from the roof of Houston's NRG stadium for part of her performance. If we had to guess which artist would make history by literally flying into their halftime performance, we would pick Lady Gaga. Yassss, Gaga.


Off the shoulder tops have been all the hype this season. I LOVE this trend. Off the shoulder tops & lace up shoes are my two faves currently! I got this one from Forever 21 but linked a similar one from Express. My booties are also from Forever 21 and I also wore these in my last post. My sunnies are from Shop Ditto (use code BROOKEAVENUE for one month free). I love this outfit for a casual date night! Have a good week, everyone!

I couldn't wait any longer to start breaking out some of my fall pieces. Fall style is my absolute favorite, however, the transition from summer can be a bit tricky. Trendy tees, with skinnies and booties are the best way to go if you're like me and dying for Fall to get here. Camo is in big time right now and I've been looking everywhere for one of these tees. I have a good feeling its gonna be huge this fall. I recently got this one for around $13 at Target. I paired it with a pair of destroyed skinny jeans and booties. These booties are from Forever 21 and they were only around $30. I hope you all loved this transition outfit. It won't be long until the chilly weather gets here anddddd then we will be wishing for summer once again! Hope you all enjoyed this transition outfit!
I want to apologize for my inconsistency with posting. I want to start posting on a more regular basis and have certain days that you can expect new posts. I have been trying to decide where I want to go with my blog. Don't give up on me because I love blogging and am going to continue---just trying to find balance and what works best. I am working on it so I hope you all will continue to visit.


I've been at M'Shoogy's for several very long years, but I'm one very lucky dog. Before M'Shoogy's I was a pup at the St. Joseph dog pound. People came and went and I waited for my turn to go home with someone special. Before I knew it, my time was up. Since no one wanted me, and I guess I'd overstayed my welcome, the pound was going to end my short life. M'Shoogy's came to my rescue just in the nick of time. See, I'm one very lucky dog. I know my lucky day will come again; won't you make it happen for me?

Cuomo to McConnell: 'I dare you' to pass a bill letting states declare bankruptcy
Gov. Andrew Cuomo previously called Mitch McConnell's idea of states declaring bankruptcy 'vicious.'
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, while expressing his opposition to financial aid for states suffering from the COVID-19 pandemic, suggested that states "use the bankruptcy route."
On Thursday New York governor Andrew Cuomo (D) called the proposal "one of the really dumb ideas of all time." On Friday, he again commented on the Republican idea.
From an April 24 press conference:
ANDREW CUOMO: Some people have suggested, "Well, states should declare bankruptcy." I think, as I said yesterday, it's a really dumb idea.
People are trying to talk about bringing the economy back, reopen, we have to get the economy moving again, and then rather than provide financial aid to the states that got hit by this economic tsunami through no fault of their own, suggestion was made, states should declare bankruptcy.
Little — few problems with that premise. Forget the morality of it, and the ethics of it, and the absurdity of it, and the meanness of it.
Legally, a state can't declare bankruptcy. You would need a federal law allowing states to declare bankruptcy. So, to the Senate that proposed it, I say: Pass a law allowing states to declare bankruptcy, I dare you. And let the president sign that bill that says I give the states the legal ability to declare bankruptcy.
It's your suggestion, Senator McConnell? Pass the law, I dare you. And then go to the president and say, "Sign this bill allowing states to declare bankruptcy."
You want to send a signal to the markets that this nation is in real trouble? You want to send an international message that the economy is in turmoil? Do that.
Allow states to declare bankruptcy legally because you passed the bill. It'll be the first time in our nation's history that that happened.
I dare you to do that, and then we'll see how many states actually take you up on it. I know I wouldn't.
But if you believe what you said, and you have the courage of conviction, because you're a man of your word, pass that bill. If you weren't just playing politics.

illiam Dietz is an established scifi author with something like forty books to his credit, but everyone starts someplace. His origin was War World, an interesting first effort that launched his career. It's been sitting one of my book boxes for ages, since the mid-eighties. Anyway, out it came for another read.
It's a fun book, I'll give it that. In the eighties, we were still gaga over dashing Han Solo (back in the days when he shot first). Now, after thirty years of grim realism (usually with sprawling worlds of mile-high slums and spaceships that take decades to get anywhere), the main character seems a bit space-operay. Will bounty hunters still wear vests, hip-holster slug throwers, and flick cigar ash disdainfully all over the place a thousand years in the future? Well, Sam McCade does.
You see, McCade got handed a dishonorable discharge (he didn't blast a shipload of pirate refugees when ordered). Now, the same commander who cashiered him has gone rogue. Having applied his hobby of combing through the artifacts of a long-dead race, the embittered commander (suffering, it turns out, from a virus-induced dementia) has determined the location of the War World, a weapons dump for that long dead race. In his frothingly righteous anger (and provoked by alien provocateurs), it looks like he'll turn this bomb bonanza over to our primary space enemies to use against us. So even though they cashiered him, even though they treat him like dirt, the Navy needs Sam McCade now, and will pull every trick in the book to get him back.
As I mentioned, it's not hard science (but coming from a guy writing a steampunk novel about dashing pursuits across the long-ago (and unlikely life-covered) moon, I don't have a lot of leeway here). No, it's just for fun, with Sam taking his knocks (like any hardboiled noir detective), gaining on his target, learning more about surrounding events, all that good stuff. Sam punches, shoots, and cigar-flicks his way through encounter after encounter, eventually living to plant his boots on the fabled titled word, when all the cards are revealed, all the ironies played, and all the baddies triumphed.
So it wasn't bad, this blast from the past. Would I recommend it? Well, with caveats – it's just a fun, fast read, perfect for a lazy spring day (which is just when I read it). While this version is out of print, you can still find it repackaged under the title Galactic Bounty.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to get back to my own light-hearted, light-scienced scifi effort.


But we let it. That's the problem.
