We believe at Crossroads that the church exists for the world, and that part of our calling is to go and share the love of Christ not only with our community, but the world. We seek to partner financially and through prayer with missionaries around the world. We leads short term mission trips to encourage and help the missionaries we support, and to introduce others to the Church worldwide. Currently, we support missionaries and works in South Asia, Europe, Africa, South America, and North America.
Crossroads has a strategy when it comes to short-term mission trips: go where we're needed, have relationships, and can make a difference. This is why most of our trips are to places where we have missionaries serving already, or where we are in strategic partnership with existing ministries.
One of the unique features of Crossroads' Missions ministry is its commitment to work in partnership with indigenous ministries in foreign countries. Crossroads supports many missionaries, but also works in cooperation with a number of U.S.-based missions organizations. Some of these include the West African Reformed Mission and DBI Partnership – serving works in West Africa and North India respectively.
We also have the joy of seeing various members of Crossroads serving on various fields. Scott & Meghan Dillon have been serving the Quechua people in Cusco, Peru with MTW for several years. Keep up with the Dillons in Peru at their ministry blog here. Chrissy Odean serves with Serge (formerly World Harvest Mission), and is currently working out of their Philadelphia office, having recently returned from years in Uganda.
If you have any desire in getting involved with this ministry, or want to know more about what we do, please contact Denver Bartee at missions@crossroadsde.com.


Cheverus junior Emma Gallant plays the ball in front of Gorham senior Caroline Gross during the teams' playoff rematch Monday. The Stags weren't able to duplicate last year's result, losing, 1-0.
Gregory Rec/ Portland Press Herald photos.
PORTLAND—The book on the top girls' soccer teams in Class A South is that they're so close in talent, that it's difficult to find separation.
That was certainly the case Monday afternoon at Shea Field, where Cheverus hosted Gorham in a playoff rematch/early season showdown.
Neither team had a great chance in a first half which featured just five combined shots on frame. While the Stags had four straight corner kicks at one juncture, they only mustered one shot, from junior Emma Gallant, which was denied by Rams sophomore goalkeeper Lily Courtney. Gorham, meanwhile, wasn't able to solve Cheverus sophomore keeper Neve Cawley either.
The defensive struggle continued deep into the second half, but with the possibility of overtime looming, the Rams managed to find the goal and gain a measure of revenge for last year's ouster.
Just seconds after missing high on a great opportunity, Gorham senior Hallie Shiers got a second chance, and guided the ball into the goal with 4:28 on the clock.
The Rams fended off a couple final Stags' bids and prevailed, 1-0.
Gorham extended its regular season win streak against Cheverus to seven games, improved to 4-0 on the young season and in the process, dropped the Stags to 3-1.
Gorham erupted for 10 goals in its opener, a 10-0 home win over Westbrook, then produced 2-0 victories at home against Thornton Academy and at Kennebunk.
Cheverus blanked Kennebunk, 2-0, in its first game, then won at Portland (3-0) and at home against Massabesic (4-0).
The teams didn't play in the regular season last fall, but in the Class A South quarterfinals, the Stags rallied to stun the Rams, their longtime postseason nemesis, 2-1, on Mackenzie Johnston's overtime game-winner.
That goal gave Cheverus just its second all-time victory against Gorham in 17 outings (two games ended in ties).
Monday, on a cloudy and chilly (61-degree) afternoon, the Rams got a measure of revenge.
In the fourth minute, a long Gallant free kick nearly led to the first goal, but Stags junior Lauren Jordan couldn't quite get to the ball at the far post.
After Gallant missed wide, Gorham's first chance resulted in a header by senior Brooke Woodbury on a corner which Cawley managed to save.
After a nice defensive play by Cheverus junior Julia Ryan, who broke up a rush by Rams senior Emma Forgues, Gorham sophomore Katie Kutzer managed to land a free kick in the box, but Cawley grabbed the ball out of harm's way.
In the 16th minute, Stags senior Zoe Mazur just missed from 40 yards out.
In the 19th minute, Cheverus earned a corner kick, which deflected out off a Rams' defender for a second kick. The same sequence repeated itself twice more before Gallant put the ball on target, only to have Courtney made the save.
With 19:02 to go before halftime, Gorham sophomore Olivia Michaud landed a shot from the side on the crossbar.
Late in the half, Gallant had a long shot saved by Courtney, then Gallant missed wide, sending the game to the break scoreless.
The Rams had a 3-2 edge in shots, while the Stags had a 4-2 advantage in corners.
Good chances were almost nonexistent in the second half, until late in the contest, when Gorham finally capitalized.
Cheverus played most of the half without Gallant, who was sidelined with a head cold, but mustered a few looks, as sophomore Mia Kratzer had a long shot saved by Courtney, Mazur missed just high and junior Alex Hammond missed just wide.
With 11:46 left in regulation, Mazur headed the ball into the box and Jordan nearly got to it, but Courtney grabbed the ball first.
A long Kratzer shot a minute later was deflected, but Courtney managed to make the save regardless.
With 5:06 remaining, Shiers had a golden chance to put the Rams on top, as she took a pass from Forgues, dribbled through two defenders and around another before firing a shot over Cawley, but unfortunately for Gorham, over the crossbar as well.
Shiers didn't have time to hang her head and instead, she kept battling, immediately got another opportunity and this time, she finished.
With 4:28 on the clock, junior Brittney Landry headed the ball ahead to Shiers in the box, to the right of Cawley. With Cawley coming off her line and two defenders converging, Shiers managed to get her right foot on the ball and guide it into the goal, just inside the far post for a 1-0 lead.
"I think our backs have been playing really well all year and we were really organized throughout, but before that goal, I thought our shape didn't look good and they found an opening and put it in," Roberts lamented.
Cheverus had its chances to rally and force overtime, but after freshman Julia Kratzer missed just wide, Jordan got the ball to Kratzer again, who missed just high with 2 minutes to play.
Cawley prevented the Rams from doubling their lead when she dove to make a save in the final minute, but the Stags couldn't generate another attack and Gorham held on to prevail, 1-0.
Gorham outshot Cheverus, 6-4, and got four saves from Courtney.
The Stags got five saves from Cawley and had a 4-3 edge in corner kicks, but couldn't find the net.
"We put pressure on at different points of the game, but didn't finish chances," Roberts said. "Against a quality team, you don't get a lot of quality opportunities.
The Rams are back in action Wednesday when Portland pays a visit. Deering comes to Gorham Saturday.
The Stags hope to return to form Wednesday at home versus Massabesic. Cheverus then has a key test at Falmouth Saturday afternoon.
Cheverus junior Lauren Jordan (23) and senior Zoe Mazur converge on the ball in front of Gorham senior Hallie Shiers.

I want to thank Gov. Dave Heineman for leading a group of elected officials to meet with Lakota Sioux tribal members in regard to the problems on the Pine Ridge Reservation, as well as problems related to the sale of alcohol in Whiteclay, Neb.
State Sens. Brad Ashford, Russ Karpisek, Colby Coash and LeRoy Louden have taken a step forward with the introduction of legislation that may provide, in part, much-needed alcohol treatment.
Having spoken with Sens. Rich Pahls, Scott Lautenbaugh, Abbie Cornett and Scott Price, I appreciate their receptiveness and urge them to carry this concern forward in the current session.
When we consider the ongoing hardships that exist on most of our Native American reservations, I appreciate that Nebraska's leaders are proactive on these issues, and I pray that solutions will be found.

Infants and toddlers the most undercounted in census; California wants to change that
Children under 5 years old are more likely to be left uncounted for multiple reasons. Adults don't always realize that infants and toddlers should be counted in the census and if small children split time between two or more homes, family members often aren't sure in which home to count them.

ACLU: Border Agents Violate Constitution When They Search Electronic Devices
The ACLU, along with the Electronic Frontier Foundation, sued the federal government in 2017, alleging that its "warrantless and suspicionless searches" of electronic devices at the U.S. ports of entry violated the First and Fourth amendments. Lawyers now say that, through depositions of border agents, they have learned that the scope of the warrantless searches has expanded far beyond the mere enforcement of immigration and customs laws.

Trump wants $4.5 billion more in emergency funds for border assistance
The White House asked Congress on Wednesday for $4.5 billion more in emergency funding to address a surge of migrants at the southern border. In doing so, the administration acknowledged that President Trump's emergency declaration to divert taxpayer money for a yet-to-be-built border wall cannot address the growing humanitarian challenge on the ground, which now requires additional government funding.

California law barring adult prosecution of youths under 16 is upheld
A state appeals court has rejected a challenge to a new California law prohibiting the prosecution of 14- and 15-year-olds in adult court, where they could be sentenced to as long as life in prison.
The law, SB1391, refers youths ages 14 and 15 to juvenile court, where the maximum confinement ends at age 25. The law, passed last year, repealed statutes that had been in effect since 1995 allowing those youths to be charged as adults.

Doris Duke to Spend $6 Million on Leadership Development in Child Well-Being Sector
"Effective and diverse social sector leadership is critical for ending intergenerational cycles of poverty and persistently inequitable outcomes for families and children," said Lola Adedokun, program director for child well-being at the foundation.

Seahawks' K.J. Wright makes plea to end dog fighting: 'It's animal cruelty, plain and simple'
By David Rose
Seahawks` K.J. Wright makes plea to end dog fighting
KIRKLAND, Wash. -- Seahawks linebacker K.J. Wright is speaking out in a new public service announcement against dog fighting.
"It's not a sport. It's animal cruelty, plain and simple," said Wright in a video he recorded Tuesday at the AMC Kickboxing and Pankration Martial Arts School in Kirkland.
It's part of a new campaign being launched later this week by Pasado's Safe Haven, a no-profit trying to end animal cruelty.
"These dogs, they need a voice. They need someone to stand up for them," said Wright.
Wright's co-star in the video is Meadow, a 3-year-old American Staffordshire terrier-type dog who sat peacefully but breathing loudly on his lap wearing a Seahawks colored cast on her injured leg.
"She had been stuffed in box and thrown from a truck. She had life-threatening injuries," said Laura Henderson, executive director Of Pasado's Safe Haven.
A good Samaritan called 911 after finding Meadow on June 9 near State Route 522 in unincorporated Snohomish County between Maltby and Woodinville.
Pasado's is offering a $2,500 reward to anyone who can help identify and convict the tall white man with a mustache and camouflage pants who tossed her from a black pickup truck.
Meadow has hundreds of scars and her injuries are consistent with being a bait dog used in dog fighting.
"They're put into a ring with a dog that will be fighting so that that dog can attack the bait dog and practice being aggressive and fighting," said Henderson.
Meadow has significant dog bite wounds to both front legs and multiple bite wounds over her body. She was found covered with a dark purple substance known as Wound-Kote, often used to treat wounds on livestock.
She's a sweet girl and, despite all she has been through, is very forgiving.
"Don't be silent. Be a hero," said former Seahawks safety Jordan Babineaux, who also participated in the PSA along with MMA legend Matt Hume.
"If you suspect dog fighting is happening in your neighborhood or you know someone that's involved in animal abuse, do something about it," said Babineaux.
They're hoping their message hits home that, unlike athletes, dogs don't have a choice to get into the ring.
"It's insane to me because dogs, they should be your best friend. They're just full of love. I have one of my own and so whoever did that just definitely (need to) be caught, definitely be put in jail," said Wright.
If you have any information about dog fighting rings or you can help solve Meadow's case, call the Pasado's Safe Haven tip line at (206) 300-7218 or go to www.pasadosafehaven.org.

distributors embrace downloads at last
In a groundbreaking development, five of the six major movie studios have agreed to let consumers download movies to own for the first time. In separate deals set to be announced today, Movielink and CinemaNow are set to offer download-to-own sales of feature films concurrent with the home video release window, in addition to the download-to-rent option that the two digital distribution services already provide. Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, MGM and Lionsgate titles will be available on CinemaNow. Movielink has agreements with those studios as well as with Paramount Home Entertainment, Universal Studios Home Entertainment, Warner Home Video and 20th Century Fox. Prices will be roughly comparable to DVDs — $20 to $30 for new releases, $10 to $16 for catalog titles. "This really is a transformative moment in the distribution of filmed entertainment content," Paramount Digital Entertainment president Thomas Lesinski said. "Hollywood has finally made a real commitment to sell films online and embrace the digital consumer."

If you don't (like me) feel free to speculate on what this might all mean. What I can't understand is why they work out so expensive– take a leaf out of Apple's book guys– unless of course, they are engineering this deliberately to fail, so they can at least say they tried. . .

irish christmas
Or hop into our information to Irish culture to learn extra about what makes Ireland tick. I always keep in mind my Nan, in the week or so after Halloween, starting to make her Christmas cake. This was one of those occasions that always signalled that Christmas was en route.
This is the compulsory Christmas e-book that most ongoing sequence appear to have. The main character continues to be studying what it means to be a General Practitioner in a small town in Northern Ireland through the mid-1960s. I'm still an enormous fan of this series and can't anticipate the next to be available on the library. Book three in within the charming and well-liked story of Nineteen Sixties nation GP, Barry Laverty, M.B., his partner / mentor Doctor Fingal Flahertie O'Reilly, and the individuals of Ballybucklebo. The writer writes within the Ulster dialect and that offers the reader a lesson in the Irish means of speaking and lends to the genuine feel of the story.
In all honesty, Perry should not have really been there, however loyal to his fans as ordinary, Perry promised he would make it for the concert, plus he had always dreamed of doing a show in Ireland! A widespread spot for this icy tradition is "The Forty Foot Bathing Place" in Sandycove, the place tons of of people plunge into the Dublin Bay on Christmas morning. Despite the name, there isn't a forty-foot drop as you may think—still, it's a fun event. On December twenty sixth, the day after Christmas and also identified as St Stephen's Day, it's common for people in Ireland to attend or watch one of many many horse races that happen that day.
How there might be issues amongst the inhabitants, but they band together when wanted and in opposition to "foes". In this story, the reader is re-introduced to Barry, O'Reilly, Kinky, and the rest of the villagers. I say re-introduced, because I was in a place to determine that Barry's story started in another guide previous to this one. I also was in a position to determine that O'Reilly's story continues from this one in "An Irish Country Courtship". However, it ended up being I needed to force-feed myself the guide, and it was nicely after Christmas earlier than I completed it. I finished it out of sheer dedication, as a outcome of I have this self-loathing factor I do when I set a book down undone.
Irish Christmas ornaments embrace each attainable icon, together with shamrocks and the Claddagh along with Celtic knots and Celtic crosses. In 1950, Christmas in Killarney was written by John Redmond, James Cavenaugh, and Frank Weldon, nevertheless it was recorded by several artists together with The Irish Rovers. It sings of the joy of the Christmas season in Killarney from sleigh rides to recollections with your beloved ones.
Winsome ballads, lively tunes, immense vocal talents and thrilling Irish dance are performed in entrance of photo projections of nostalgic traditions. Rich in Irish historical past, humor, music and boundless energy, it's a memorable present for the entire household. This family-friendly efficiency options energetic instrumental tunes on fiddle, flute, uilleann pipes and harp, together with thrilling Irish old-style dancing from Samantha Harvey. Take a memorable glimpse into the enchanting spirit of Christmas, as the best conventional artists from Ireland, bring you on a fun-filled start to the holiday season of 2021.
I are probably to learn every thing available, with lots of thrillers, scifi and hot paranormal romance for fun. Barry Laverty, M.B., is wanting forward to his first Christmas within the cozy village of Ballybucklebo, no much less than till he learns that his sweetheart, Patricia, won't be coming residence for the vacations. That unhappy prospect dampens his spirits considerably, but Barry has little time to dwell on his romantic disappointments. Christmas may be drawing nigh, but there could be little peace to be discovered on earth, particularly for a young doctor plying his trade in the emerald hills and glens of rural Ireland.

Cover the top of the tin with the additional round/square sheet of baking parchment and bake for roughly 2-1/2 to 3 hours. The baking time could differ depending on the type/size of your oven. The authentic recipe called for 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 hours but I saved an eye on the cake after 1 hour 15 mins and checked it each 20 mins thereafter. When the skewer inserted inside comes out clean the cake is completed. You will want an 8" square or a 9" spherical pan with tall, straight sides, preferably a spring type pan. Make sure that the pan does not have handles/flat on the perimeters (like the one's by Prestige brand).


What you need to know to protect your family from ever increasing long-term care costs.
In the world of retirement planning, consumers can use many different devices to protect their assets, accumulate wealth, and allow their assets to pass to their family, or other beneficiaries, without having to go through probate. In our practice, another common goal among our clients is to create a plan that will allow them to receive the care that they need without having to spend every last hard-earned dollar on a nursing home, so that they can pass some assets on to their children or heirs.
Not knowing how to properly plan, some clients decide to put all their money into their child's name in an attempt to protect it from a nursing home. The problem with transferring assets is that you have given them away. You no longer control them. If your child is sued, has a creditor, goes through a bankruptcy or divorce, your assets are at risk. A safer approach is to put them in an Irrevocable Trust.
Understanding the difference between revocable and Irrevocable trusts.
A trust, in general, is a legal entity under which one person, the "trustee," holds legal title to the property within the trust for the benefit of the "beneficiaries." The trustee must follow the terms set out in the trust instrument. When planning for a nursing home, we have to consider whether the trust assets are counted as part of the Medicaid resource limits. This will all depend on the terms of the trust.
A "Revocable" Trust is a trust that can be changed or revoked by the person who created it. Because the person who creates this trust is entitled to the income and principal of the trust, Medicaid considers assets owned by this kind of trust to be countable in determining Medicaid eligibility. Thus, although Revocable Trusts are a good way to avoid probate and transfer assets, they are of little use in Medicaid planning.
An "Irrevocable" Trust is one that cannot be changed after it has been created. In most cases, this type of trust is drafted so that the income and principal cannot be applied to benefit you or your spouse. Assets transferred to an Irrevocable Trust are no longer owned by you as they become the property of the trust, which also keeps your assets safe from most creditors. Since you no longer have a financial interest in the assets in the Irrevocable Trust, they cannot be taken as part of divorce or other proceedings introduced by creditors, thus offering the desired asset protection. Like the Revocable Trust, upon your death, or the death of the surviving spouse, the principal is paid to the beneficiaries.
Because you do not have access to the principal of this trust, the principal in an Irrevocable Trust cannot be counted for Medicaid or VA purposes, which provides the nursing home protection that most clients are looking for.
As you can see, making the decision to do an Irrevocable Trust should not be taken lightly. The only way this type of planning works is if you have a trusted child or friend to be trustee of the trust agreement. They will have complete access to all the funds within the trust agreement while you will continue to maintain direct control over your working checking account, savings account, and income. The trustee may, at their discretion, take a distribution from the trust and return assets to you if needed. However, there is no legal requirement that they do so. Therefore, having a trusted person in this position is imperative.
When Should You Think About An Irrevocable Trust?
Determining when to move assets into an Irrevocable Trust depends on your specific family situation. Irrevocable Trusts are usually established by older adults who wish to protect their assets from nursing home expenses or qualify for Veterans benefits. The Irrevocable Trust works particularly well for those older adults that are not pulling from their existing retirement and savings accounts. These assets that are just sitting there gaining interest get moved into the Irrevocable Trust, while leaving the day to day bank accounts unchanged.
In order to gain nursing home protection, the assets must be moved 5 years prior to applying for Medicaid. By placing assets into an Irrevocable Trust five years ahead of the actual need for nursing home care, the older adult protects his or her assets from nursing home costs and preserves the assets for the benefit of named beneficiaries, all while still remaining eligible for Medicaid benefits. However, in the event nursing home care is needed within 5 years of transferring assets to the Irrevocable Trust, the trust document will also spell out specific instructions for releasing funds and assets to the beneficiary to preserve the older adult's Medicaid eligibility.
If the older adult is a Veteran or a widow(er) of a Veteran, there is no look-back period for the Veterans Aid & Attendance benefit, at this time. This provides more flexibility for a Veteran or a widow(er) of a Veteran, allowing him or her to establish an Irrevocable Trust and start receiving the VA benefit when the need arises.
Irrevocable Trusts also have the benefit of passing assets to your beneficiaries without going through probate. Since the assets transferred to the Irrevocable Trust are already technically the beneficiary's property, they do not need to go through probate court after your death. This means that your beneficiaries might have access to the assets much sooner than if the assets had simply been willed to your heirs.
Irrevocable Trusts can also have provisions for special purpose estate planning for your beneficiaries, such as Special Needs Trusts or Discretionary Trusts for children with special needs.
As with all estate planning, the laws can change so a consultation with an expert is advised before deciding if an Irrevocable Trust is appropriate for your situation. The attorneys at SSR Law Office can help you evaluate your estate plan and ensure that you have appropriately planned for your long-term care needs. If you have questions about VA-compliant irrevocable trusts or other forms of estate planning contact SSR Law Office today for a free initial consultation.

Linear fluorescent lights are often used to light classrooms, office buildings and doctors' offices. The fixtures all appear the same, but there is no real "standard" for all lighting applications. Within the linear fluorescent family are many other classifications like size, colour and style.
The size of linear fluorescent lamps refers to both its length and diameter. Linear fluorescents are generally referred to in a few different sizes with T8 and T5 being some of the most common. The "T" generally stands for "tube," although many manufacturing companies have their own meaning for it. The number immediately following represents the diameter measured in eighths of an inch. T5s are skinny tubes with ends measuring 1.6 mm (5/8 inch) in diameter. T8s are slightly larger tubes with ends measuring 2.5 cm ( 8/8 -- or 1 inch) in diameter.
Although the main difference between T8s and T5s is their size, they also come in different wattages. T8s generally start around 17 watts and normally reach about 42 watts, with the standard being 32 watts. A 32-watt T8 lamp would normally be listed as F32T8. T5 lamps vary widely in wattage from about five watts to 54 watts, with 17-watt and 54-watt lamps being the most common. F54T5s are widely used in place of T8s in certain applications, but because of their size and capacity, 54-watt lamps are specially made and labelled as "HO" or "high output." This means that the wattage is higher than normal for that size of lamp, so it has been specifically manufactured to handle the excess energy.
A ballast is basically a regulator for fluorescent lights. Because fluorescent technology uses gases mixed with electricity to create ultraviolet light, they would keep mixing and the light would intensify until it eventually burnt out. The ballast not only creates the initial pulse of electricity to light the gases and phosphors, but it also regulates the electricity while the lamp is on, keeping it running at the correct wattage and temperature. Although T5 and T8 lamps are very similar and are often used in the same applications, they must have ballasts that are manufactured specifically for not only their lamp type (T8 or T5) but also for their wattage. A 5-watt T5 will not run on a 54-watt T5 ballast, and vice versa. The same goes for T8 technology. Before changing out any lamp types or fixtures, make sure to have the correct ballast associated with your lamp type.
T8s are primarily used as overhead lighting in ceiling fixtures. They are used in commercial buildings and even homes. Kitchen lights, for example, are often long fixtures with a wrap lens that houses two or four 1.2 m (4 foot) T8 lamps. T5s, although sometimes used in overhead fixtures like industrial high-bays, are primarily used in under-cabinet or accent lighting. Often seen in offices and cubicles as the light bulbs underneath desk cabinets, they are also used in display cases at retail shops.
Because T8 and T5 refer specifically to the size of the bulb's tube, fluorescents of all shapes can be confused. Circular tube lights, compact fluorescents and U-bend lamps are also referred to with a T5 or T8 size; however, they do contain specific characters in their nomenclature to differentiate between linear fluorescents and different shapes. Compact fluorescents are usually listed with "CF," and U-bend lamps are generally named with an "FB" for "fluorescent: bent." Although the different types are measured in T8 and T5 sizes, "T8" and "T5" used alone refer to the linear fluorescent bulbs.

Q: Unable to see stable-baselines output? Greetings!
I am new to stable-baselines3, but I have watched numerous tutorials on its implementation and the custom environment formulation.
After developing my model using gym and stable-baselines3 SAC algorithm, I applied (check_env) function to check for possible errors and everything is perfect. However, whenever I run the code, the only output I saw is:
Using cpu device
Wrapping the env in a DummyVecEnv
And the training session will stop without any output or save the model into the directory file.
Please what can be wrong, I have already set the verbose to 1.
Best Regards,
Mich

A: I have a similar issue with my code. It shows only "Using cpu device", and not printing the monitoring variables inside my environment. Further, when I use
env = make_vec_env(env_id, n_envs=num_cpu)
instead of SubprocVecEnv, then it prints my variables but seems does not use all CPU cores!
thanks

Vibroacoustic Therapy (or VAT as it is known) is a drugless, non-invasive approach to addressing physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of ourselves with a focus on increasing the quality of your life. While resting comfortably, the body is massaged with specifically designed, low frequency vibrations which are transmitted through the use of special transducers. These vibrations gently permeate the body, engaging the body to create a sympathetic resonance with the energetic frequency waves provided in the CD.
A VAT session offers multiple benefits and can be designed to meet your needs. Surrounded in comfort and caressed by relaxing music, the vibroacoustic frequencies are combined to provide both surface and deep tissue massage effects while creating a healing resonance to balance both specific areas and the body in general.
Developed in Europe during the 1980's, Vibroacoustic Therapy has been synergistically combined with a wide variety of health care modalities. Treatments on a regular bases provide long-lasting, cumulative benefits. Practitioners, wellness centers, and spas have worked with clients dealing with asthma, COPD and cystic fibrosis, fibromyalgia, Parkinson's, MS and dystonia with amazing results. Psychologist, hypnotherapist, and professionals working with autistic children use vibroacoustic therapy and vibroacoustic music (or VAM) in their practice. VAT to clear emotional trauma, whether it be due to abuse, or injury, or PTSD has provided clients with the help to release the pain and create a happier outlook. Stress disorders, insomnia, pain management, and physical rehabilitation and so much more benefit from this painless, relaxing, vibrational sound therapy.
Studies have shown VAT and VAM will stimulate blood circulation, relieve stress and anxiety, and the analgesic effect aids in pain management. It lowers blood pressure, calms the autonomic nervous system and decreases spasms and tremors.
No matter what brings you to a VAT Sessions, you will leave having reduced your stress, anxiety, and blood pressure, increased your blood circulation, and minimized your pain level. Tournesol Wellness Center offers and wide range of services for improving your quality of life including VAT Treatments on the Liquid Sound Table.
I will leave you with a favorite story of mine from treating an older couple with VAT for a few weeks. While the gentleman was on the table being treated for his arthritic knee, his wife mentioned that while it was helping his knee, "He sure is a lot easier to live with." Then, when she was on the table for her session, her husband mentioned, "I don't know what she is getting out of this, but she sure is a lot easier to live with." My wife and I both smiled and never mentioned what each had said about the other. They both had developed a more positive attitude towards each other and life.
Editor's Note: About a month ago I stopped by Tournesol Wellness for my own VAT session and was blown away with what could be accomplished in just one hour. The frequency was set based on what I wanted to work on, generalized stress and fear, which apparently lives in your kidneys. The sessions can address anger (liver), sadness (lungs), pain anywhere in your body, as well as a ton of other ailments. VAT can even help someone get a deeper and more beneficial meditation. The table is much like a water bed and you can get on and even snuggle under a blanket to get comfortable. The room is completely dark and you are left alone with your thoughts, the gentle, fluid vibrations underneath you, and peaceful music playing overhead.

Dragonica Online is a side scroller MMORPG which offers different versions depending on your region. This Dragonica guide will discuss the complete information and guide strategy in defeating the Lavalon boss in Dragonica Online which is a huge fire lizard.
It should be noted because different regions have different versions of Dragonica. Your version might have slight alteration of the boss and this guide might not apply. You should still use your best judgement in applying this guide.
Reward: Equipment of any rarity from level 40-55, weapon enhancement powder, armor enhancement powder, experience potions.
2. Attack it's hand when it slams the floor with melee characters.
3. Collecting 2-3 mana bullets (Unconfirmed) from Red Dongs and Skull Clubbers that spawn. Fire off mana cannon that stuns Lavalon for approximately 50 seconds and renders it in reach of attack by your party.
Lavalon has three attacks. These attacks are used by the Lavalon boss in no particular patten. However, he does use fire breath more often than the slam attack. There is usually a 4-5 second cool down in between those attacks except for the falling boulders which is prolonged for the whole battle. To avoid taking damage, move around constantly and do not stand in one place.
There are also Red Dongs and Skull Clubbers summoned/spawned which deal low damage.
Huge damage attack that can one hit KO or take off 70% of your HP depending on your level, class, and defensive gears. This attack has DoT effect if you stay in its attack range. This attack is hard to dodge because it tends to target one single player.
You can quickly jump out of the spray when the attack lands on you. As soon as you are hit, use potions right away to bring your HP back up.
This attack damages random areas of the map and usually results in a line. This is also a high damage attack however lesser than the Fire Breath.
This attack is easily avoidable. You can tell where the damage will be hit by observing the pentagrams that appear on the floor. The pentagrams will show after the arm slam. You could walk to an area without the pentagrams to avoid being hit.
Molten boulders fall at random places and deal high damage. These attacks land in no particular pattern.
Simply move around to avoid the falling boulders.
It is best for you to have at least 600 greater health potions and 600 greater mana potions and a few greater elixers before you enter. You should bring more if you only have one Acolyte in your party. You should rely on your Acolyte/Priest to do their jobs and not use too many. However do not be stingy on using them to avoid any possible deaths.
Have a few of the Phoenix Feathers around to resurrect your Acolytes when they die. Lastly, be sure to buff up your party with all available party buffs before entering.
You need a full party line up of 5 members including yourself to have an easy run. You should have at least 3 party members. The level requirement for the party should be 50 plus being idealistic. Level 40+ would also do but the boss fight would be tough.
Your party should have two or at least one Acolyte/Priest, one Ranger/Hunter/Trapper/Ballista and the rest can be any class. Have one or more Acolyte/Priest is important because of their resurrection skill to avoid using the Phoneix Feathers. The healing skills are also important to keep all party members alive. In addition, having two Acolytes can ensure that one can resurrect one another when one dies.
a. The Acolyte/Priest sets up sanctuary directly in front of Lavalon and spams both wide and instant healing.
b. Ranger/Ballista should set up the autoshot system. Ensure that they are in working order through out the battle. While working on that, move into the Acolyte/Priest's sanctuary to attack Lavalon directly.
c. All range classes except for the Acolyte/Priest(s) should be facing Lavalon and constantly attacking the boss.
d. Melee classes should pay attention for when Lavalon does the slam attack and attack it's hand while it uses that attack. Gather mana bullets in between and firing the cannon when possible.
While the Lavalon is stunned by the mana cannon, all party members should focus their attacks on the boss.
a. The Acolyte/Priest should set up sanctuary at the top right or left corner of the map and keep it up at ALL TIMES. Attack facing Lavalon using jump shots, air combos. In addition, use heals and resurrect party members when needed.
b. Ranger/Ballista should set up the autoshot system near the center of the map. Make sure they are in working order to damage the spawning mobs. Turn invisible and run around the map to avoid damage while looking the mana bullets from the dying mobs. Fire the cannon when possible.
c. Other party members stay near or inside the radius of sanctuary when heal is needed. Kill the mobs that have traveled to them. If mana bullets drop, let the Ranger/Ballista to pick them up while they are in invisible mode.
b. Ranger/Ballista should set up the autoshot system near the center of the map. Make sure they are in working order to damage the spawning mobs. Turn invisible and run around the map to avoid damage while looking the mana bullets from the dying mobs. Fire the cannon when possible. Focus all its attack on the boss while Avalon is stunned.
1. You can only enter Avalon dungeon by completing the quest "Dr. Farrel's Diary" and have the key in your possession.
2. You CAN reenter the dungeon if you party with someone who has the key. The one who has the key should be the party leader upon entering the mission.
3.Mana bullets tend to have a low drop rate, however the almost 1-minute stun is great enough to offset the low drop rate. A good team can deal roughly 20% of Avalon's HP per cannon firing.

Q: Infinite Longlistselector I want to implement infinite scroll to a webclient uri download. But i can not find a working example for longlist selector.
Currently my longlistselector lists limited number of results, if i can implement php pages to query how can i do this in windows phone?

A: Take a look at this sample from Microsoft. It is a twitter example that has infinite scrolling.
In the sample, they listen to the ItemRealized event to load more items from the viewmodel. The viewmodel then adds items to the end of an observable collection.
void resultListBox_ItemRealized(object sender, ItemRealizationEventArgs e)
    {
        if (!_viewModel.IsLoading && resultListBox.ItemsSource != null &&

resultListBox.ItemsSource.Count

= _offsetKnob)
              {
                  if (e.ItemKind == LongListSelectorItemKind.Item)
                  {
                      if ((e.Container.Content as
  TwitterSearchResult).Equals(resultListBox.
  ItemsSource[resultListBox.ItemsSource.Count - _offsetKnob]))
                      {
                          Debug.WriteLine("Searching for {0}", _pageNumber);
                          _viewModel.LoadPage(_searchTerm, _pageNumber++);
                      }

Bruce Campbell's Ash Williams is no more.
The news comes following Friday's announcement that Sunday's final episode of Ash vs Evil Dead Season 3 would also be the series finale.
Campbell, who has played anti-hero Ash Williams in the horror/comedy on and off since 1981, said it had been "the role of a lifetime".
In an earlier tweet, posted after news of the cancellation of the series was announced, Campbell thanked Starz, creator Sam Raimi and executive producer Rob Tapert and "our tireless fans".
Old school friends, Campbell and Raimi began working on the horror film Evil Dead after graduating from university.
Considered one of the most violent films of its time, it caused controversy when it was released in 1981.
It was given an X-rating and was included in a group of "video nasties" – a term used to describe extremely violent and disturbing, low-budget horror films from the US and Italy.
Its comic book levels of gore and violence have now helped it become something of a cult classic.
The success of the film spawned two sequels: Evil Dead II and Army of Darkness.
A remake of Evil Dead was released in 2013.
Campbell reprised the role of Ash in the recent Starz TV reboot, with the first series airing in 2015.

Móskarðshnjúkar is a mountain and popular hiking route, situated in the south-west corner of Iceland next to Mt. Esja.
The mountain can be seen from Reykjavík City and is celebrated both as a hiking trail and venue for backcountry skiing. Móskarðshnjúkar sits right next to Mt. Esja, but is more challenging to get to and therefore much less crowded. Making your way here is very awarding, where avid treckers are greeted with sweeping rhyolite landscapes and challenging trails for hiking or mountain biking.
To get to Móskarðshnjúkar, you drive Road 36 to Þingvellir and turn left after the farm Gljúfrasteinn, famed home of Iceland's Nobel Laureate Halldór Laxness. Following a gravel road, you cross a bridge and then drive by the riverside, before turning right through a gate. At the end of that road, you'll find a parking lot, from where you will have to continue on foot.

UN Migration Agency video: "migration is inevitable, necessary and desirable", cites flawed report to refute critics
Vincent van den Born
With 244 million people on the move, migration is inevitable, necessary, and desirable: https://t.co/oJT8snspYt #ForMigration pic.twitter.com/9QP9E4VL3o
— IOM (@UNmigration) 24 juni 2017
The International Organisation for Migration (IOM) got itself in some Twitter troubles over the past few days, when it sent out a video and tweet saying:
"With 244 million people on the move, migration is inevitable, necessary, and desirable."
It is, of course, a somewhat curious statement to begin with. One could argue that movement of people is necessary for migration. But to call migration inevitable? For whom? And necessary? Again, for whom? Desirable? Once more, for whom?
Pretty soon after placing the tweet, IOM's Twitter feed was inundated with exactly those kind of questions and remarks.
When confronted by a Tweet claiming that over 90% of immigrants in the Netherlands are on welfare benefits the reply is most curious. Whoever is behind the IOM account did not think it was necessary to actually read the information linked to. If they had, they would find the – official government – numbers only pertain to two groups of asylum seekers, not all immigrants in the Netherlands. Countering with that information would have been legitimate. Instead, the IOM invites critics to: "please get your facts here", referring to a report by McKinsey.

— IOM (@UNmigration) June 26, 2017
The problem with the McKinsey report, however, is that even a cursory glance at the content of the report signals a strong focus on presenting immigration as something inherently positive. To that end, the report lumps different kinds of migration together and proceeds to discuss this meta-migration as the only kind of migration. What is even more problematic, is the political tone the McKinsey report takes on, by calling on policymakers to "change the narrative" (page 16, executive summary) about migration altogether.
"Change the narrative by thinking of immigration as an opportunity to gain long-term dividends despite short-term challenges.
The presence of migrants—and of refugees in particular—has often been referred to as a burden or a responsibility for destination countries. But it is important to shift the narrative in a new direction: toward accepting migration as a given in a globalized world and focusing on how improved integration can yield bigger dividends."
To invite people to 'get their facts' from such a political report is, at best, rather dubious.
Furthermore, Dr. Jan van Beek deftly explains in a series of tweets why the McKinsey report's conclusions are not true for Europe or the USA. He goes as far as calling the report "part of the propaganda narrative".

Sorry! Warmer weather won't be helpful: Dr. Zafar Mirza on Covid-19
PM's Special Assistant on National Health has clarified that the warmer weather is unlikely to be helpful to combat Coronavirus. However, a report published by CNN, offers an alternative explanation. It is also important to know what Chinese medical experts have to say about it?
As Coronavirus outbreak continues to haunt the strongest economies and health systems of the world, Pakistani authorities are confident to combat it. However, health experts have reached to the conclusion that the weather has nothing to do with the spread of virus. Dr Zafar Mirza, Prime Minister's Special Assistant on Health, has clarified that the warmer weather will not affect the spread of coronavirus.
We can flatten the curve through mass testing, says Zafar Mirza

Talking to media outside Supreme Court, Dr Zafar Mirza has rejected the theory that warmer weather slow or stop the spread of coronavirus and said that government is trying to stop the spread of the pandemic.
He also said that deaths and infections of coronavirus in Pakistan are lower than projected numbers.

It is pertinent to mention here that Pakistan has reported 58 deaths from novel coronavirus. 4072 people tested positive for the virus out of 42159 coronavirus tests. 2,030 patients have been tested positive for the epidemic in Punjab, 986 in Sindh, 527 in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, 212 in Gilgit-Baltistan, 206 in Balochistan, 92 in Islamabad and 19 in Azad Kashmir. So far, 467 patients have recovered in the country while 25 are in critical condition.
Research findings on the spread of COVID 19
According to a report published in CNN, the warmer weather may be helpful to counter the disease. "This is a respiratory virus and they always give us trouble during cold weather, for obvious reasons," Nelson Michael, a leading US military medical researcher, said of the novel coronavirus last week. "We're all inside, the windows are closed, etcetera, so we typically call that the influenza or the flu season."
Influenza thrives in cold and dry conditions, which is why winter is flu season for much of the northern hemisphere. Behavioral differences in winter can also have an effect. Michael predicted the coronavirus may behave like the flu and give us "less trouble as the weather warms up," but, he cautioned, it could come back when the weather gets cold again.
The hope is that, along with radical action by governments and the public to decrease the number of new cases, reduced spread during warmer weather would give health systems space to cope with the initial influx of coronavirus patients, and buy time for a potential vaccine to be developed.

"This is why it's really important to understand that a lot of what we're doing now is getting ourselves ready for what we're calling the second wave of this," Michael warned.
There is evidence to suggest the coronavirus does particularly well in certain climates. Some of the worst hit areas around the world — from Wuhan, where the virus was first detected, to Iran, Italy and South Korea — are on more or less the same latitude, with similar temperatures and relative humidity. Researchers at the University of Maryland (UM) have even used this data to attempt to map out other parts of the world that could be at risk of imminent outbreaks.
Though the research remains preliminary, data from the UM study suggests that certain climatic conditions, while not determining whether the virus can survive, may help accelerate its spread.

However, according to an article published by the World Economic Forum, the weather is unlikely to help fight Coronavirus. "From the evidence so far, the COVID-19 is at home in hot and humid weather, as well as the cold. You could try having a very hot bath – but that wouldn't do much either, according to the WHO. Your body temperature will not be affected greatly by normal changes in outside temperature, which means the coronavirus will always be comfortable," it said.
Dr Edsel Maurice Salvana, director at the Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology at the University of the Philippines, also believes that a direct correlation between warmer countries and the slower spread of the virus "is a myth".
