"On behalf of the staff, volunteers and patrons of Great Waters Music Festival our thanks and congratulations to Jim Fontaine, the architect behind our new user-friendly website that immediately saw an increase in page hits, customer inquiries and most importantly, ticket sales!"
The owners of Summerhawk Lakeside Cottage Rentals, located in Wolfeboro, NH - The Oldest Summer Resort in America - wanted a CMS-enabled website with a southwestern flair that echoed the decor that's featured in each of their well-appointed lakeside cottages. A family owned and operated business since the 1960's, generations of families have made memories to last a lifetime during their lakeside vacations at Summerhawk. A mobile-friendly, responsive website design makes it easy for travelers using their mobile devices to find and interact with this website. The owner continually shares e-mails with PCS Web Design from their patrons who love the look-and-feel of their new website that sports a little bit of the Southwest right here in the Northeast!
Grand Images had a very old website that they had built themselves. It was functional but didn't accurately portray to level of professionalism the owner wanted to convey to his clients and potential customers. PCS Web Design worked through multiple design iterations in create both a visual look as well as a custom navigational structure that embodied some very particular ideas the owner wanted to see. The result is a clean, modern, CMS-enabled website that now shows the breadth and depth of photographic services they are able to provide.
A picture's worth a thousand words. And, sometimes, pictures are better with words. For New Hampshire author and artist, DJ Geribo, both came together in the CMS-enabled website built by PCS Web Design. The author and artist's books and paintings are both available for purchase directly from the website as well with ecommerce support. DJ also blogs about what she's reading and what she's painting. Social media links keeps her art patrons and book fans up-to-date with upcoming art exhibits and shows as well as book signings. You can also signup for her newletter from her website. This website has it all!
Parker Island Growth Strategy Advisors, LLC contacted PCS Web Design to discuss building them a website that would accurately portray their services. A minimal design and pleasing color palette built around images provided by the owner was the focus of this basic business website. The results demonstrate the truth behind the saying that sometimes "less is more." If you have a business or product that targets a niche market, perhaps a less is more approach would work for you as well.
Great Bay Insurance Agency's owner, Sandy Salava, came to PCS Web Design when he was faced with some pretty challenging obstacles to the agency's existing website. Issues surrounding his domains registrations and hosting threatened his online presence with completely disappearing. PCS Web Design was able to work on behalf of the owner to secure the transfer and ownership of a second-choice domain as well as subsequently secure the transfer and ownership of an original domain name to their control. Regaining control of the original domain saved the owner time and money because it allowed him to use existing promotional materials and sales collateral printed with this domain. Concurrently, PCS Web Design built a responsive, mobile-friendly, CMS-enabled website to replace their outdated design. Sandy makes it a point to connect with his clients personally and his new website let's him start that conversation off on the right foot.

Author of 'PAID TO LIVE THE DREAM'
Paid to Live the Dream
The other books
'Moving On'
'Paid to Live the Dream' is also available as two separate books:- 'A Tugman's Tale', and 'Voyaging to the Sun'.
'A Tugman's Tale'. Life aboard Thames steam tugs in the 1960s
(This book is extracted from Part 1 of 'Paid to Live the Dream' and is about experiences of working on the Thames steam tugs.)
Seven years of working with colourful characters in a hard environment, when 'health and safety' hadn't yet been invented, was a tough learning experience for a 15-year-old lad straight from school. He tells of the long hours, the basic living conditions, the dangers – as well as the pranks and the humour. Time off was brief but was filled with escapades ashore, short trips abroad and an active love life!
This is also a deeply personal account of his early life on a council estate where money was short and you had to make your own amusements; cycling with his best friend with only one bike between them, eeling in the marshes, riding ponies at the nearby riding school before the owners were awake. Visits to the cinema were funded by collecting and returning empty bottles to pubs and also by getting up at the crack of dawn to deliver a large paper round before setting off for school.
'Voyaging to the Sun'. Adventures on the French Canals & the Western Med.
(This book is extracted from Part 2 of 'Paid to Live the Dream', and tells of Anthony's adventures after he left the Thames tugs (described in his book 'A Tugman's Tale' and Part 1 of 'Paid to Live the Dream').)
After a gruelling six and a half years spent aboard the Thames steam tugs Anthony was ready for a change. As luck would have it he saw an exhilarating film clip in a local cinema which filled him with a new resolve to pursue the goal of sailing.
Getting the sailing bug
He qualified as a yacht skipper and then set about finding work. With no previous experience this wasn't easy, and he ended up accepting a job on a new but suspiciously doubtful looking vessel destined for chartering in the Mediterranean. Once the main fitting out was finished, he, together with his new wife and two crew set out for the Med by way of the Belgian and French canals.
This yacht was so disastrous in its design and conception, and the things that subsequently happened were so unbelievable, that it instigated the writing of this account. It is an extraordinary and sometimes hilarious tale of misadventures and fiascos.
Some people might question whether climbing up a cliff face in the dark, being tossed around in a storm in the Bay of Biscay, and seeing a crew member almost shot could be considered the dream, but at least he was doing what he wanted to do and got paid for the experience!

Finger Tips: how do you zoom in / out of iPhone iOS Maps App with just 1 hand?
iPhone Maps App has great multitouch zooming that works really well for zooming to the scale you want. However, there is no button for zooming. It's hard to multi-touch with the hand holding the iOS device in our experience. Especially when driving.
How it works: Ensure both fingers touch the display at the same time. There should be a small gap between the fingers, otherwise iPhone will think you've made an accidental touch.
Please enlighten us with your wisdom if you got a better way to multi-touch iPhone and iPod touch with one hand. Will LOVE to see a video of someone getting this to work with iPad, with 1 hand, we dare you.

Safe Routes to School: The Nexus of Public Health, Safety and Transportation
State: CA Type: Promising Practice Year: 2020
Alameda County Public Health / Nutrition Services Program
The Alameda County Public Health Department's Nutrition Services Program (ACNS) envisions that all people live in safe, connected neighborhoods that offer fresh, affordable foods, are choosing active healthy lifestyles and are engaged in their communities. We exist to promote and support healthy eating and physical activity through committed partnership with communities to reduce chronic disease and improve long-term health.
Alameda County Public Health Department Nutrition Services Program has been awarded Active Transportation Program (ATP) state funds since 2013. These California Transportation Commission (CTC) state funds are designated state-only by the United States Department of Transportation to support the Active Transportation Program Safe Routes To School Program, a collaborative partnership, an innovative model and responsive practice that educates, informs, and encourages pedestrian and bicycle safety, with a menu of services that seed policy, implement systems, and initiate environmental changes at school sites and neighboring communities throughout the City of Oakland. The collaborative partnership is convened by ACNS. Partners include the Alameda County Public Works Department, the City of Oakland Police Department (OPD), and the Oakland Unified School District's (OUSD) Wellness Office, including non-profit partner, TransForm. In-kind partners include the American Automobile Association (AAA) of Northern California and Utah and Nevada and the City of Oakland's Department of Transportation (DOT).
ACNS has prioritized the health of children since its inception in 1999. With our headquarters centrally located in Oakland, staff and partners are primed to serve economically disadvantaged schools in Oakland. Oakland is the 8th largest city in California and has 425,000 residents according to the United States Census Bureau. It is one of the largest, most economically diverse cities in Alameda County yet 28% of Oakland students are living in poverty. Students in West, Central and East Oakland where most of the schools are concentrated -- show even greater concentrations of poverty; approximately 47% of students are living in very low-income households.
A shift in transportation patterns is of utmost importance for the health, safety and wellness of children in Oakland. Oakland has predominantly neighborhood schools, but much less human-centered, active transportation than years previous due to societal shifts and economic needs for cars, as well as concerns about high crime and safety resulting in a propensity for an increase in preventable chronic illnesses such as high blood pressure, obesity and diabetes amongst adults. These, however, are not limited to adults only 22% of Oakland fifth graders have asthma or other respiratory stresses and 42% are overweight or obese. Such conditions are most prevalent in economically disadvantaged neighborhoods (Alameda county Community Health Assessment, 2014). Couple these debilitating illnesses with traffic fatalities, the ACNS Active Transportation Program is of utmost importance. Last year, at least four children were hit by vehicles while traveling to or departing school in Oakland and minor collisions are alarmingly common. In addition, overall community and school safety remain key factors that deter Oakland parents from allowing their children to walk or bike to school. This contributes to disproportionate rates of overweight and obesity, as well as chronic diseases listed above.
The ATP SRTS collaborative partnership and practice evolved from expertise and knowledge of influencers responsible for addressing the health and safety of Oakland's children including direct information from families with children attending the Oakland Unified School District. The goals are to:
Provide pedestrian and bicycle safety education to school communities with,
Encouragement activities promoting walking and cycling as a fun form of physical activity supported by,
Local traffic enforcement as part of the equation to ensure families who walk are safe and feel safe from uncooperative drivers, and
Develop a cadre and culture of safety amongst student leaders that can champion safe walking and bicycling in and around schools
The objectives have been met as evidenced through the long-standing collaborative partnership; the County has received three cycles of multi-year funding to expand and enhance the active transportation program from serving only district schools, to expanding service to middle and charter schools, to piloting safe routes to affordable housing near schools. Additionally, our innovative, model practice has been visited by another local jurisdiction, Los Angeles City and County, who recently piloted their first Safety Patrol in one school after their visit.
After having served 43 schools and thousands of students during the 2015-2018 school years, the ATP program has expanded services to include students and families attending charter elementary schools and also to OUSD middle schools, broadening the reach of pedestrian and bicycle safety education.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) sees Safe Routes to School as a nationally recognized practice. NHTSA prioritizes safety through education and enforcement with the goal to impact and positively influence traffic behavior and practices from vehicle drivers, to pedestrians, to bicyclists. The analysis by the National Center for Safe Routes to School's recent evaluation in 2015, revealed that low income communities were well represented in SRTS funding.
ACNS Active Transportation Program has focused on serving only OUSD elementary schools from 2013-2018. However, due to public, community demand coupled with the necessity to expand and/or provide new programmatic elements by the funder, the 2018-2019 and 2019-2020 school years expanded to include OUSD middle schools and charter elementary schools. The program had to be nimble in order to be responsive to the number of youth in the city of Oakland as well as community need. As of 2017, there were approximately 20,000 elementary school aged students in Oakland Unified School District (OUSD) with another 5,000 in district approved, elementary charter schools. Fifty-one OUSD schools serve grades K – 8 and 17, K-8 elementary charter schools exist. Additionally, there are 14 OUSD and five charter middle schools. 50.3% of students speak a language other than English at home with at least 55 native languages spoken at home. On average, 2.6 miles are traveled by students to school (Oakland Unified School District Fast Facts, https://www.ousd.org/Page/16964).
The majority of Oakland Unified School District elementary schools are located near heavily congested commercial corridors in under-served areas of Oakland. Safety is a key factor that deters parents/caregivers from allowing their children to walk or bike to school. Many school sites may lack an up-to-date traffic safety plan for student arrival and dismissal that leads to dangerous traffic conditions. Common hazardous traffic circumstances at schools includeautomobile backups, double parking, unsafe turns and most schools are not equipped to manage the onslaught of cars. The general decline in students walking or biking to school nationally correlates with an epidemic of childhood obesity and other chronic health conditions. Oakland school children are more likely to be overweight or obese than their peers in more affluent parts of the city, county, or state.
One of the most innovative and responsive practices of the Active Transportation Program, Safe Routes to School collaborative partnership that serves a diverse student population, is building an awareness and culture of safety and health at the younger school years by instituting youth-led, school Safety Patrols (SP). Safety Patrollers have the unique leadership role as elementary school students, to provide daily, safe zones during the busiest times of the day -- morning drop off and/or afternoon pick ups. During this time, emotions run high as families hustle and bustle to get their children to school on time. Vehicles cause congestion on often busy, broken streets and at congested intersections at Oakland schools. Schools are often left to call the police department to advocate for crossing guards or traffic enforcement.
School communities, however, especially those in lower income communities, prefer to take the community engaged practice and become visible safety champions. Adults, who are family of the student Safety Patrol volunteer leaders, are paid a yearly monetary award for their presence and guidance on a daily basis, during the academic year. These essential adult advisors, liaise with the students, the school administrators, and law enforcement to uphold school, traffic safety plans.
The ATP program and Safety Patrols exist at the intersection of public health, physical activity, safety (violence prevention) and transportation. It is one of only thirteen non-Infrastructure projects funded by the State of California for the current cycle (Active Transportation Resource Center Webinar, July 2019) that puts children and health at the center of the innovative framework. With children at the center, we use the National SRTS best-practice framework to tailor the unique program, with added elements of community service and youth development practices supported by a community of adult allies, both paid residents and community volunteers, and with strong institutional, organizational support.
Making a Case for Injury and Violence Prevention and Response to Community Need: Garfield Elementary
In October 2019, a family caregiver was killed and her niece injured at a busy intersection of Foothill Boulevard near Garfield Elementary. Per a recent school district press release, this main street is notorious for speeding, pedestrian injuries, collisions, near misses and deaths. Earlier this year, an elementary student from a neighboring school and his parent were killed just blocks from Garfield. Garfield Elementary is a large school with over 650 students and most students arrive by walking. After these incidents, the school community and neighbors rallied and advocated for additional safety measures. The school had one crossing guard regularly assigned. After the day of the rally, three to four more were assigned. This school also has an active Safety Patrol but the accidents occurred at the entrance on the opposite side of the school during kindergarten early release. For several years, the school community has been requesting that the City of Oakland make changes to help slow drivers. It took fatalities to implement traffic safety changes.
Garfield Elementary is an example of the challenges of the schools that the ATP SRTS partnership and program services. It is located in the San Antonio neighborhood of Oakland, a diverse pocket with 27% Latino, 23% African American, 34% Asian residents. Over 92% of the Garfield students participate in the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Free and Reduced Lunch program. Alameda County Public Health along with community based partners have supported the school with other programs to support health efforts. A food pharmacy was implemented by the local Board of Supervisor, a weekly produce stand that gives market match discounts, and community health fairs.
Though published in 2002, a San Francisco Gate, article states what is often times what continues to occur in present day, At the same time, the district has a relatively high number of welfare recipients and relatively high rates of unemployment and poverty. There are vacant stretches along the boulevard, and 23rd Avenue is still bedraggled - a far cry from the bright, commercial thoroughfare advocates imagine. Many immigrants face typical struggles over unfamiliar customs and language.
Alameda County Public Health Department Nutrition Services Program has received Active Transportation State Funds since 2013. Funds supported the 2013-2018 collaboration named Be Oakland Be Active, a comprehensive Safe Routes To School Program and the 2018-2019 and 2019-2020 collaboration called Active Oakland. The collaboration supports an innovative, non-infrastructure only Safe Routes To School Program with the goal to educate, inform, and encourage pedestrian and bicycle safety, with a public health and equity lens, by offering a comprehensive menu of services that help to seed policy, implement systems, and make impactful environmental changes at school sites and neighboring communities throughout the City of Oakland.
ACNS convenes the collaboration and has worked in partnership with the following entities:
Oakland Unified School District's (OUSD) Wellness Office with non-profit partner, TransForm.
The City of Oakland Police Department
Fiscal sponsor, the Alameda County Public Works Department (ACPDWD) and
Community Engaged Residents and Students
In-kind partners include the American Automobile Association of Northern California and Utah and Nevada (AAA) and the City of Oakland's Department of Transportation (DOT) and OUSD Transportation Office.
Central to the collaboration and the program are community engaged partners -- Oakland residents or school staff who serve as the adult Safety Patrol Advisors to student-led Safety Patrol platoons, paid School Based Wellness Champions who uphold school wellness policy and implement safe routes activities, and volunteer Safe Routes Champions who promote walking, biking and rolling, as well as the elementary and middle school students who are may be participants and recipients of the program. SRTS leaders also assist with implentation of education and encouragement programming that iincludes special days that promote active transportation during the school year with activities to sustain and maintain new travel practices. Students are encouraged to walk, bike, skateboard, or scooter to school and practice helmet safety. Furthermore, Oakland's elementary school children are both beneficiaries of and participants in the Safety Patrol program. Although ACNS is the convener of the collaborative partnership, to uphold the value of committed partnership" as the vision states, it is essential to have key institutional partners and community residents as influencers in place year to year to uphold the program.
In 2006, Alameda County Public Health Nutrition Services supported active, Healthy Living Councils, resident cohorts whose purpose was to identify and problem solve barriers to living a healthy lifestyle in Oakland's lowest income neighborhoods with the least resources. Repeatedly, pedestrian safety and traffic related dangers surfaced from neighborhood to neighborhood. In particular, Bella Vista Elementary located in east Oakland (describe neighborhood) sought resources from the Oakland Police Department due to a student hit on his way to school. By 2013, ACNS was able to secure funding to serve up to 41 eligible schools.
The Active Transportation Program, Safe Routes to School collaborative partnership is uniquely designed to meet the needs of high need schools where at least 50% of families are eligible for the USDA Free or Reduced Meal Program (FRPM) in order to:
Administer a Walk and Ride to school program
Deliver Safe Routes to School Champion program
Provide Traffic Safety and Enforcement at school sites
Provide Helmet Safety and institute School Safety Patrols
Though held within the city limits of Oakland, the City of Oakland, Alameda County Public Works (ACPW) department became the fiscal sponsor of the innovative practice as they held an existing Master Contract with the California Transportation Commission. In response to the community need, ACPW has provided in-kind technical assistance to this project for at least five years considering their operational jurisdiction is generally focused on unincorporated areas of Alameda County. Over the years, the ACPW team has supported the capacity building of the ACNS staff and team to respond to the funding body, report on activities and invoice according to the Local Area Procedures Manual which was a new body of policies and procedures ACNS was becoming more familiar with. This practice, however, was a perfect complement to USDA SNAP-Ed Program that also supports the promotion of health and physical activity, in addition to nutrition education, for the families with 185% FPL.
The City of Oakland Police Department (OPD) celebrated the 93rd year of Safety Patrol. This component of the Active Transportation Program is the city's best practice and tradition that has evolved to embrace the public health lens by coupling traffic safety education with youth leadership development, a strategy for violence prevention and injury prevention in and around school sites. Modeled after the east coast Safety Patrols in the 1920's, the East Bay Safety Council organized in Oakland and neighboring cities of Berkeley and Alameda to reduce accidents. This council was comprised of chiefs of police, railway officials, DA, a public health commissioner, school superintendent, auto trade organization (Electric Railway Journal, June 1922). An Oakland survey disclosed serious traffic hazards, and in 1928, the first school Safety Patrol was piloted.
Today, 22 schools with two pending, implement Safety Patrols and are comprised of 3rd through 5th grade Oakland elementray students and their 22 respective adult advisors who become culture keepers of safety on school campuses. They are adorned with bright, lime green hats and sashes, provided in-kind by AAA of Northern CA, Nevada and Utah. Throughout the academic year, rain or shine, the Safety Patrol students arrive at least 30 minutes early to campus to put cones out on the street, hold long stop signs to cover intersections near their schools to ensure safe crossing for families, and have clipboards to note vehicular observations. At the height of the recent programs, student Safety Patrols also engaged in:
Safety Zones:
Bus Patrols - where Safety Patrollers (SP) walk kids from the fenced area to the bus while we make sure they don't run into the street. [They] count how many kids get on each bus."
Morning Drop Off Zones - In addition to focus on pedestrian crossing, students at some schools also focus their attention to drop off" areas positioning themselves car lengths apart along the zone. Once cars come to a complete stop, SP opens vehicle doors and greet the driver and their school mate. SP may also walk younger children to class from the drop off zone.
Afternoon Pick Up Zones – Similar to morning drop offs but ensures that cars line up to pick up students leaving school.
Street Crossing -- Safety Patrol students practice pedestrian and traffic safety techniques under guided, adult supervision at key interesections close to their school with high pedestrian traffic.
Leadership and Community Service. Safety Patrol students are ranked similar to traditional law enforcement and hold their roles seriously. They celebrate each other and uplift community by annually participating in community service from peer reading, to tending to sheltered animals, holding food drives, and neighborhood trash pick-up. In 2017, for example, Franklin Elementary School Safety Patrol made lunches with kind notes and distributed them to older adults and the unhoused at Clinton Park in East Oakland.
Team Building Activities. These included an informal partnership with East Bay Regional Parks District to utilize trails for bike rides led by volunteer guides from Youth Mountain Bike Association.
One of the institutional backbones of the Active Transportation Program's innovative, model practice is the Oakland Unified School District Wellness Office. This office is responsible for upholding the district wellness policy and is committed to ATP by committing to recruit adult Safe Routes Wellness Champions. These champions collaborate on specific wellness programs and have ongoing training supported by district, school site staff and administration.
Having OUSD in this dedicated role ensures that Safe Routes nonprofit partner, Transform, is connected to students and families to hold Safe Routes education and engagement activities such as the International Walk and Roll to School Day and International Bike to School Day, Helmet Safety Education, introduction of walking school busses and the engaging Golden Sneaker Contest in the spring highlighting the classroom(s) who walk during a two week period.
The successful results of the collaboration continue to demonstrate that with the key institutional partners, resources continue to support so that youth continue to be exposed to active transportation, take on leadership roles in their school community, and provide safety during the busiest times of the day. We are proud to have had up to 38 active schools with active Safety Patrols during the past 5 years, including Nationally Recognized Life Saving Award by AAA which further increases the likelihood of engagement, education and exposure.
Alameda County Nutrition Services employs process and outcome evaluation. Process evaluation includes using the Results Based Accountability Framework which responds to three key questions: 1) How much did we do? 2) How well did we do it and 3) Are we better off. The collaborative partnership meets quarterly and on an as needed basis to reflect on outcomes such as service delivery and to ensure activities are on par and according to plan outlined in the contracts and project scope. Quarterly meetings allow space to anecdotally share what has worked as well as areas of improvement and strategies to address those challenging issues.
We utilize the Safety Patrol Student survey to collect data for the past two academic years 2017-2018 and 2018-2019. The Safety Patrol public health team administers pre-surveys to Safety Patrol students during their first month. Post-test surveys are collected during the last program month. Students complete the surveys in the classroom setting and support is provided by the public health staff.
For Safety Patrol with direct student interaction, monthly quality assurance meetings are held to ensure adult advisors and studenst discuss incidents and assess equipment needs. These meetings are student led following a formal protocol and utilizing a guided agenda. Additionally, student behavior change in Safety Patrol students are surveyd with 3rd to 5th grade students as our primary data source. Using a tool designed for elementary school aged children to be able to understand the question such as I practice traffic safety rules when crossing a street" or How confident are you that you can solve traffic safety problems? And How well do you know how to help a student safely cross the street?." For 2017-2018, 297 student surveys and 94% of schools and the 2018-2019 school years, close to 272 students with 86% of schools responding.
In 2017-2018, 30 schools of 32 were surveyed and a total of 297 matched, students responded. In 2018-2019, 18 schools of 21 responded with 272 matched, students answering. In both academic years, our goal has been that at least 75% of participating Safety Patrol students reported an increase in life schills and knowledge as a result of the program. Both academic years exceed that goal with 77% in 2017-2018 and 76% in 2018-2019.
In 2017-2018 and the following academic year, 74% of students responsidng to the survey self-report that they are super confident" or pretty confident" in solving traffic safety problems. 80% say they know very well" or pretty well" how to help a student safety cross the street. The following school year, 82% responded very well" or pretty well" on how to help a student safetly cross the street.
Additionally, each partner ensures quality of their programmatic elements between quarterly meetings i.e. Safety Patrol Team and Safety Patrol adult advisors(OPD and ACNS), Safe Routes encouragement team and volunteers (Transform with OUSD Wellness), Wellness Champions (OUSD).
The City of Oakland Police Department's RBA measures are excellent with regards to the recruitment, training and maintenance of school safety patrols. For the 2015-2018 period, 38 of 41 or 93% schools that were outreached to, instituted school Safety Patrols with 900 students participating.
All 38 schools (100%) of schools opting to establish a safety patrol received the oversight and training and maintenance.
90% of schools that received oversight, training and maintenance remained active for the duration of the school year.
For 2018-2019, 21 of 28 (75%) schools that were outreached to, instituted school Safety Patrols with XXX students.
The 2018-2019 academic years was a transitional year with a long-term, key staff member resigning. ACNS onboarded a new staff late in the school year. In spite of this transition, however, a noticeable mark in the increase in the number of Regional AAA awardees was made. One third (7 of 21) of the AAA awardees (of 400 applications) were to the City of Oakland, East Bay area region including the prestigious AAA National Student Patrol Advisor of the Year. Fifth grader, Andres Palencia from Manzanita Community School in Oakland received the National Lifesaving Medal. When he saw a toddler run into a busy intersection, Andres immediately practiced traffic safety technique and blew his whistle loud enough to get a truck driver's attention. Thankfully, the driver came to a screeching halt. His school credits him with preventing what could have been a fatal tragedy.
Traffic Safety Plan(TSP) implementation is also measured. For both cycles, 100% of schools offered consultation for Traffic Safety Plan Development that included meeting with the principals and interested influencers, 100% use and/or distributtion of the TSP to families, and 100% of traffic and parking enforcement requests are followed up on. Prior to the implementation, any school must conduct a traffic safety audit. These are measures communicated to both the City DOT and the school district's transportation staff.
The Oakland Unified School District has shown steady increase in support. In the 17-18 school year, 30 OUSD Wellness Champions participated attending training and councils. This number increased in the 18-19 school year with 36 designated SR2S Wellness Champions plus volunteer SRTS participated. The 19-20 school year 19-20 is holding steady with the same participation rate. Encouragement and educational activities have also shown a steady hold with the following:
2017-2018: 21 International Walk and Roll to School Day events at elementary schools, 22 Golden Sneaker contests in elementary schools, 17 Bike to School Day events in elementary schools
2018-2019: 22 International Walk and Roll to School Day events at elementary schools plus 3 participating middle schools, 14 Golden sneaker contests in elementary schools and 2 in middle schoold, 14 Bike to School Day events in elementary schools + 5 in middle schools
2019 -2010: With only half way in to the academic school year, 27 elementary school and 4 middle schools have conducted International Walk and Roll to School Day events plus 9 bike mobiles and/or Bike Rodeos
Anectodally, Safe Routes Champions have reported the following through quarterly reports narrative responses capturing how well we do" as well as a commentary of the school environment
I have enjoyed delving into SR2S. I have enjoyed the SR2S meetings/teachings very much. And the Walk and Roll to School Day was very successful."
I think the safe routes to school is challenging in that it would take a lot more time than I was able to spend on the role hyping things up for families and students since the messaging would need be for our entire school community. The golden sneaker contest was really successful, I think we should do more work with teachers talking about how students are getting to school each day in their morning meetings."
It is difficult to walk or ride our bikes to our school. But, I like when we allow the kids to bring scooters and/or bikes and we provide a time for them to ride on campus."
Continue to invest in programs/events/resources that directly impact students and get them to be active, healthy, and confident. Also, it is really helpful to have equipment that we can used (helmets, bike lights, stickers). All of this we can use for raffles and healthy prizes (for monthly bike to school day). It motivates the students, and a lot of them don't have helmets when they ride bikes and scooters."
Here is a snapshot of innovative, collaborative partnerships' collecive, impact and accomplishments:
In 2018-2019, 229 of 272 Safety Patrol students reported they know how to help a driving caregiver safely drop off a student.
486 Safety Patrol students experienced teamwork and gained leadership skills serving as examples to their peers during the 2018-2019 school year.
In 2018-2019, 26 Safe Routes to School Wellness Champions supported and promoted the OUSD wellness policy.
17 schools hosted Golden Sneaker Contests in the 2018-2019 school year. 13 schools hosted Bike to School Days.
In 2018, over 1000 Safety Patrol students were honored at the 90th Pass In Review ceremony in front of friends, family and community.
In 2017-2018, 34 OUSD schools with OPD created traffic safety plans relaying information such as ADA compliance and the need for crosswalk or curb repainting to City departments.
27 Adult Advisors were on the front lines with Safety Patrol students in 2017-2018.
From August - December 2017, OUSD Wellness Champions reported 31 activities comprised of helmet/bike giveaways, presentations to students, and hosting Walk and Roll to School Days.
We are pleased to receive a new cycle of funding maintaining and sustaining the existing collaborative partners from October - September in 2020-21, 2021-22, and 2022-23. One of the funding challenges over the years, however, is that schools cannot receive the same services cycle to cycle. The ATP SRTS collaborative partners have had to collectively continue to innovate, expand services to continue to serve the schools with the greatest need. Partners are committed to continuous quality improvement and finding ways to sustain resources to maintain the program. As a practice, ATP SRTS collaborative partners seek regular feedback from Wellness Champions, Safety Patrol Advisors, student safety patrol leaders on how to best move forward with the ATP SRTS program and practice. As a collaborative partnership, meetings will include other agencies as needed with a focus on program sustainability.
The upcoming cycle prioritizes 18 elementary schools that have not had a combined traditional Safe Routes to School Program plus a Safety Patrol on the school campus. Students will participate in a new, refined Safety Patrol Academy as a 2-3 week intensive program to learn the ins and out of youth leadership and traffic safety. The collaborative partnership in particular with OUSD's nonprofit partners, Transform, will pilot Safe Routes to Home", and embark on partnering with at least one to two affordable housing units in Oakland. And we will explore implementing, complementary programming to communities where we may be able to leverage SNAP-Ed dollars to complement active transportation with nutrition education while encouraging physical activity (walking, biking, rolling) to eligible, priority school sites and neighborhoods throughout the County as supported and evidenced by the data and community support and need.
We are challenged with continuing to innovate since active transportation has become a practice at school sites, and in particular, the Safety Patrol as a specialized program. For sustainability, we are looking at other ways to fund walking programs through the Office of Traffic Safety, humanities grants that provide perspective on communities through walking tours, and of course, the departments of transportation.
One of the main ongoing costs would be project coordination and nominal monetary awards for adult advisors at each site. The ACNS ATP funds 2 FTE community staff, 0.25 FTE management oversight, plus financial and administrative staff supporting this effort. It also funds Safety Patrol adult advisors, a portion of staffing for the City of Oakland Police Department, and a specific number of Safe Routes OUSD Wellness Champions, and OUSD's non-profit partner - Transofrm. As the cycles and funding has shifted, school sites have been able to sustain Safety Patrols without the advisor payment, however, some have not. When possible and contingent upon funding guidelines, we support avenues to pay Oakland residents/caregivers and the district wellness champions to support the work. AAA sees the value of the Safety Patrol and awards schools from $1,000 to $1,500 to go towards Safe Routes/Safety Patrol programs which has been ample to support the school Safety Patrol Advisor monetary award. Annually, at least three schools/year have received this award from AAA.
In addition to institutional efforts for sustainability, influencer feedback is an important determinant to the continuation of the ATP SRTS practice after initial development. Fortunately, the Oakland Unified School District has institutionalized the role of Wellness Champions. The Safe Routes OUSD Wellness Champion will exist in perpetuity as long as there is an interested person to hold the role. OUSD is committed to seeking and funding for this role and would consider it volunteer should funding decrease. Traffic Safety and Enforcement continues to be a priority for the City of Oakland as well. This year, the City invested in increasing the number of crossing guards throughout the city and a more school sites. Crossing guards would sustain without ATP grant funding as it is areadly a non-funded, leveraged program through the collaborative partnership.
Safe Routes to Schools education and encouragement activities are conducted by a non-profit partner, Transform and OUSD, who makes services available to school sites throughout Alameda County. Even without the funding partnership, Transform's menu of services would now change and would still exist to support schools upon request. Though the level of service would be less hands-on and less intensive, Transform would continue to support schools that opt-in, annuall to traditional Safe Routes to School encouragement activities like International Walk and Roll to School Day, Bike to School Day and Golden Sneaker.
As an intentional strategy to maintain and sustain and more importantly, engage the community, in the upcoming cycle, the ATP SRTS collaborative partners and participants have designed ways to engage reesidents at affordable housing developments to increase active and safet transporation in neighborhoods near schools with hopes to increase the number of residents who became aware of the ATP program by embarking on "active street" challenge to take walks in the neighborhoods or nearby parks and trails.
Additionally, we are looking to develop and increase the number of community members who can receive a monetary award to ambassador Safety Patrol and the SRTS engagement activities. Like the student Safety Patrol is a team, the adult support team will be developed through continued educaiton and promortional activities to get community physically active and engaged along with continuing to engage in feedback for traffic safety and health needs in their respective communities.

A A Chaudhuri – Q&A
Posted by janetemson on December 23, 2022 December 23, 2022
A A Chaudhuri is the author of The Scribe, The Abduction, The Final Party and She's Mine. Her latest novel, The Loyal Friend, was published by Canelo on 23 June 2022.
She kindly answered a few of my questions.
1. Tell us a little about The Loyal Friend.
The Loyal Friend is a dark and twisty psychological thriller set in and around Kingston, Surrey. It centres on the mysterious disappearance of young, vivacious fitness instructor, Jade Pascal, who fails to turn up to her yoga class one evening, and the ensuing police investigation to discover what happened to her. Suspicion soon falls on three of her regulars – Susan, Grace and Natalie – three very different women, all of whom have dark pasts and secrets they'll do anything to keep buried. As the police investigate and details of their disturbing pasts start to emerge, the facades they each present to the world begin to crumble.
I began writing the book in July 2021, and wanted to base it in a setting I didn't feel had been done before in the psychological thriller genre. With the health and fitness industry having become a key part of so many people's lifestyles – largely owing to the stress we encounter on a daily basis, along with the push given by lockdown to keep ourselves fit and healthy – I also felt the setting would be widely relatable. Furthermore, I know from my own experience that unlike the gym, fitness classes attract a wide variety of attendees, of different ages, genders and fitness levels, and have become increasingly popular over the years. Having said all that, although the backdrop for the novel is a health club, the story centres on so much more than that, chiefly the interplay between three very different women and the things that are prompting them to act and live out their lives in the way they do. Natalie, Grace, and Susan are ostensibly three normal women tackling everyday issues so many women around the world, including myself, face these days. Body hang-ups, mental health, the advent of menopause, juggling work, family and elderly parents all feature in some way, along with other more delicate issues of child abuse and infidelity. I wanted to draw attention to such issues because I feel they're important to address and that readers would be able to empathise on a global scale. Like Grace, I have struggled with my own mental health owing to the stress of caring for my elderly parents who have both been unwell (particularly with me being an only child) while managing a career and young family, while I have also come across women like Susan who appear to have the perfect life but are actually concealing a feeling of emptiness and despair behind the glamourous, happy veneer. The pressures on women to perform and 'have it all' can be intense these days, and it was therefore something of a cathartic experience to write this book, at a time when I was dealing with a lot of personal stress myself.
3. Do you plan before you start writing or do you sit down and see where the words take you?
I don't tend to plan a book in great detail before I start writing. I'm more of a panster than a plotter as the expression goes! Obviously, I'll have a rough idea of the plot and how it might develop, but I never draft a detailed blow-by-blow, chapter-by-chapter account of what's going to happen. I'll make a note of each of the main characters and their chief characteristics/backstories before I started writing the book but that's about it. With psychological thrillers, the main focus is on the motivations and mindsets of the characters, what's driving them to do the things they do. Obviously, plot is crucial – you can't have one without the other – but it's the characters who are propelling it forward and dictating the way things pan out. I'll therefore start with a rough idea in my head and see where it takes me. Often, new characters and ideas will occur to me as I write, along with red herrings, twists and turns that can often take me in a completely different direction from that which I'd originally envisaged, including the motivations and backstories of characters and even the identity of the culprit. It's one of the most exciting, not to mention satisfying things about being a crime/thriller author: thinking up that new character, twist or red herring you hadn't considered when you first started writing the novel, but which takes the story up a gear and adds a new dimension to it. I enjoy having the freedom to take the plot wherever I want it to go as I write, rather than having to stick to a rigid plan. Having said that, I really admire authors who are able to plot in advance in great detail. It's probably a lot less risky too!
Not anymore but I remember initially being quite surprised by how many stages a book goes through before it's published, in terms of rounds of edits, along with the amount of people involved at various points in the process, not just from the production angle but also the retail and publicity side. It's a mammoth operation, with a lot of hard work invested by everyone involved in the process, and so to finally hold my book in my hands once the book is published never gets old. It remains a very special feeling.
I love to exercise, particularly Les Mills classes as well as running and doing weights. It's my way of managing my stress and sets me up for the day. I also love going to the cinema, eating out, travelling, and obviously, reading thrillers!
That is unbelievably tough! Can I pass on that one please?
I think it would have to be The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe. I adored the Narnia books as a child, and it's been lovely to see my children enjoy them too. They have everything you could possibly want from a book: fantastic storylines, vivid description, wonderfully drawn characters, important messages and happy endings.
What a great question in itself! Here's my question and answer:
Question: Is there a book you've written which remains unpublished but which you'd love to see out in the world?
Answer: Yes! In 2013 I wrote my first thriller, entitled Illicit Retainers. It's a sexy, fast-paced suspense thriller, exploring themes of addiction, love, ambition and revenge, and brimming with twists and turns which hopefully keep the reader entertained to the end.
I'll refrain from revealing the main hook of the plot here – in case it does find a home (!) but safe to say it centres on a struggling female lawyer who joins a glamorous City law firm only to discover its steeped in corruption with a dangerous hold over certain of its employees. With her life and freedom at stake, she must protect her family, and strive to expose the dangerous men who will stop at nothing to silence her and her closest allies. Although it's the book my agent took me on for, and remains one of my and her favourites, despite coming close with a few big publishers, it hasn't yet been taken on. I've had fabulous feedback from various beta readers so it would be my dream to see the book published. Next year, it'll be a decade since I wrote it, so maybe 2023 will be my lucky year!
She has your back.
And may stab you in it.
Wealthy, pampered Susan is living the perfect life in leafy Kingston. She'll never let anyone see the darkness she's concealing behind the diamonds and rosé.
Grace is new to the group, seemingly the perfect wife and mum. Yet no one knows the truth of what's happening behind closed doors.
Loner Natalie hides the pain of her childhood behind a carefully ordered life. But how long can the past stay hidden?
Three unlikely friends, brought together for a weekly class run by beautiful, friendly, instructor, Jade.
But when Jade goes missing in mysterious circumstances, the group starts to unravel. And as their darkest secrets come to light, it seems that no one can be trusted. Even their closest friends…

Exhumation, removal & re-burial of Human Remains from the site at High Street, Gorleston-On-Sea, Norfolk, on behalf of JD Wetherspoon plc. July 2017
The initial client enquiry came from Dennis Payne of Archaeoserv, Chief Site Archaeologist on behalf of Sanderson Contracts PLC & J.D.Wetherspoon PLC.
The land was formerly the site of a Methodist Chapel and was not known to have any burials in or around the chapel.
During excavation, a brick vault with an arched roof was found, and this vault was found to contain two coffins.
From its position, the vault was, presumably, located beneath the main entrance to the Chapel and suggested the deceased were highly respected members of the congregation, possibly the benefactors of the late 19th Century rebuilding of the chapel. Although a nameplate was found, due to corrosion, it was illegible.
The land was to be used for building a J.D.Wetherspoon Bar & Restaurant, for which, planning permission had already been issued.Dennis Payne was in the process of making application to the MOJ for an Archaeological License to Exhume based on the Disused Burial Grounds Act.
Dennis Payne was in the process of making application to the MOJ for an Archaeological License to Exhume based on the Disused Burial Grounds Act.
An initial inspection of the remains suggested possible Horse Hair linings to the coffins and Lime disinfectant on the coffins. Thus, on the day of the exhumation, full PPE was used by those entering the vault. It became evident the lining was, in fact, hay and the lime had dripped from the lime mortar used to construct the vault.
However, both remains were sealed into zinc lined, hermetically sealed caskets and all PPE destroyed. This being considered 'Best Practice'
The deceased were re-interred later the same morning in a private plot at Gorleston Old Cemetery.

Salamander review (TG16)
Reviewed on February 02, 2013
Sadly, Salamander is a rarity — a Gradius-style game that doesn't operate by these rules. Instead, you get the simple-n-generic sort of system where enemies drop power-ups represented by various icons and, by collecting them, you automatically get whatever goodie they represent. This takes some of the fun out of this title, as the ability to customize the way you power up your ship was quite a nice touch.
Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask review (3DS)
Since we've now reached the fifth game in the series, it's natural that not every puzzle is a winner, but the stuff that you'll find here is mostly very good even if it mostly doesn't utilize the 3DS hardware in any meaningful way. There are some challenges that do repeat a few times, including some irritating ones that ask you to divide a board into four pieces of the same size while gerrymandering your way around chess pawns, but a lot of the brain teasers are intuitive and creative enough to keep you absorbed even if you find yourself stumped for a few minutes at a time.
Blast Chamber review (SAT)
In this release, you're in control of a red suit contestant placed inside a series of giant, cubed-shaped rooms, or chambers, where a female-voiced AI occasionally utters something.
Clock Tower review (SNES)
Terrible Controls, Confusing camera angles, limited saves, limited ammo, cheap thrill scares, does anyone know of a game made before all that became mandatory in a horror game, well I do: Clock Tower, is it any good? please read the review and find out what I think.
Gears of War review (X360)
Gear of War from Epic Games is a third person shooter which revolutionizes cover based combat. The detailed graphics, interesting story, and incredible music combine with innovative combat to create a game everyone should try.
Secret of Mana review (SNES)
The farther you advance into the adventure, the more worthless the hero becomes when compared to his two companions. He is the best melee fighter, which is great for mowing through the common enemies that reside on the paths your party must navigate while traversing the overworld and any dungeons, but he possesses no magic of his own. When left to fight alone, the best the hero can do is charge up his weapon of choice (which isn't the quickest of processes) and hope to connect with an enemy by unleashing an enhanced attack.
Mass Effect Trilogy review (PS3)
The heart of Mass Effect is you, the player. Mass Effect is a series that succeeds in its details, rather than its broad strokes, and while the technology and themes of the story create a vivid setting, all of the details of that setting are decided by the player.
Final Soldier review (TG16)
Middlin' Soldier
Double Dragon review (NES)
For a game I haven't played that much during childhood, Double Dragon for the NES is a title whose details I can still remember vividly to this day without a problem.
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night review (PSX)
I cherish so many facets of this game that even its minor flaws--which are heavily overshadowed its stellar exploration elements, strong atmosphere, breathtaking visuals, and fantastic soundtrack--occupy a special place in my heart.
DmC: Devil May Cry review (X360)
DmC retains the combat that made the series popular but, in stark contrast to the previous release, embellishes it with confidence, audacity and newfound visual majesty. The series creator moved on ages ago to reach greater heights; maybe it was time the series itself did, too.
Phantasy Star II review (GEN)
This game will break your heart just as much as the hearts of the characters in this game will break…
Super Hexagon review (PC)
Super Hexagon is a master class in single-minded vision, minimalism in design, and pure addictive compulsion.
Anarchy Reigns review (PS3)
Is this a fight or a beauty pageant?
Wrecked: Revenge Revisited review (X360)
With three friends at your side, there are few other titles out there that'll reveal your ugliest competitive streak quite so vividly.
Gradius II: Gofer no Yabou review (NES)
In Gradius II, you are immediately greeted by the choice between four different weapon sets (as opposed to only one in the original) and then you advance to a very attractive opening stage loaded with fiery asteroids. Making this level particularly neat is the way you can scroll up and down while moving to the right. If the particular path you're charting through the asteroids seems too fraught with danger, it's simplicity itself to go over one instead of under it in order to fight a different arrangement of foes.
Anarchy Reigns review (X360)
Even a low-budget, small-scale follow-up to MadWorld is still more of a follow-up than we ever expected. Anarchy Reigns takes the style, audacity, humor and helicopter-throwing lunacy out of its predecessor, then demonstrates that even without those things, it was still a pretty solid beat-'em-up.
Faria review (NES)
Faria should have charmed me with a cute fantasy world and antiquated (but loveable) RPG concepts. Instead, it bored me with unoriginality and frustrated me with its poor implementation of challenge, only to bore me in a different way once the challenge abruptly vanished.
Rainbow Islands review (NES)
This is the game where the Bubble Bobble timeline splits into two, like Zelda.
Sonic Generations review (PC)
Generations is almost like two games tied by the storyline, but if a less pedantic way of implementing both of these can be found, then the blue hedgehog has a bright future ahead. For now, this is the return that Sonic needed.

She brought energy and enthusiasm to packed classes that left people smiling and asking for more. Participants left nothing but glowing reviews. I also had the opportunity to take one of the class she taught. As someone who has never taken a dance class, I was blown away by how much fun I had and how many calories I burned. I would recommend Soumya's classes to everyone!
The best Bollywood dance studio for adults. Arundhati is a really great teacher and her choreography is authentic.
Would recommend to any friend in the Seattle area.

The instructors are very professional and fun at the same time. My favorite part is the choreography - crisp and clear, targeted at a big stage. You'd be surprised at how your stamina levels shoot up after being a regular here. You also get to meet many other dancers and learn their technique and style. If you love performing, this is the place to be.
I am so glad I found Bollyworks to learn bollywood dancing. Arundhati's classes are fun and energetic. If you are looking to learn bollywood dancing or simply get fit while having some fun then Bollyworks is the place for you!
Bollyworks -- Arundhati . The name says it all. I was looking to follow my passion of Bollywood dancing for years and finally I ended up joining bollyWorks.This choreography class is a perfect blend of energy, fun, moves etc. it's an hour, I always crave for. Apart from being a great choreographer she is a passionate teacher who ensures that everyone is learning and enjoying every single move involved. In last three months I have definitely come out as a better dancer and wish to excel. It's worth trying.
When I started taking BollyWorks dance and fitness classes a few years ago I had zero experience with dance and was completely out of shape. I had been looking for a long time for a form of exercise that would be interesting, fun, and not too scary for a real beginner. Bollywood has become my passion thanks to the welcoming environment that Arundhati creates at BollyWorks. She sets the bar high but gives enough clear, supportive instruction that we can master the material. All the instructors are welcoming, professional, and friendly. I never thought I'd ever become someone whose favorite days of the week were the ones when I could go work out, but thanks to BWF that's who I am today!
I have been passionate about Bollywood dancing for so long. I always had the plan to join a dancing class and I was very happy when I found out about BollyWorks. I am about to start my fifth batch with Arundhati and I am very excited to be a part of her advanced class. Arundhati is very confident in what she is doing and that brings more energy and fun into the class. I love her choreography! She always dances with full energy. I can't say enough about how much I enjoy dancing in her class. ?
Very enthusiastic instructor! Best Bollywood dance school in Redmond/Bellevue area. Loved performing with them.
For Bollywood dance lovers, getting fit can't get any more fun! Arundhati and Soumya are truly great instructors and inspiring people. I've tried many ways to keep me fit in the past and Bollyworks has been the only one that I can consistently stick to, and Bollyworks fitness (BWF) has just been a great addition to it. You will hear time and again that their classes are very energetic and fun, and also be sure to lose weight and build more stamina with consistency. They also have an amazing set of new instructors who I love working out with. Bollyworks & BWF rocks!!
I just can't wait to be in class every single week.

To all those dance freaks who are on the look out for a fun place to learn dance, Bollyworks is THE place.
Dancing has always been my passion but marriage , moving to a new country and then having a kid, just somehow pushed it to backfoot.Thanks to Bollyworks, I could resume it back.
Arundhati is such an amazing dancer/choregrapher/teacher .I felt this right from day 1 of the class. Her high energy dance work out made me sweat, drop couple of pounds with just DANCE, DANCE and DANCE!!!!.

Q: Eclipse plugin installation from Project File I want to install eclipse plugin Agilereview from following link:
https://github.com/AgileReview-Project/AgileReview-EclipsePlugin
I downloaded the zip and unzipped it. I added it in eclipse as project and many projects added into workspace. When I tried to select all those projects and export them as deploy-able plugins in eclipse repository, eclipse doesn't allow it and always show error like plugin file missing. A problem is the zip file include many folders and many of those folder has its own plugin.xml file. Therefore, I think this Agilereview plugin itself is a combination of many plugins. I am sure that plugin is okay and its my mistake to install it.
Can anyone tell me, what is the mistake I am doing while installation? I want to install this plugin manually since later I need to optimize it.

A: Each of the folders org.agilereview.xxx is a separate Eclipse project. So you should use 'Import > Existing Projects into Workspace' to import these projects.
Since there are pom.xml files it looks like you should use maven and tycho to build the code.

A: For building RCP applications and plugins like Agilereview, which itself is a combination of many projects, you can check out the following tutorial:
http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/EclipseTycho/article.html
Eclipsetycho provides support for building eclipse components.
Install the maven eclipse tool, which will make your work easy.
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/releases
This is a pretty complex process, so spend some time to learn from the tutorial.

A 91% mortality rate is not just a cancer. It is an emergency. With a new approach to pancreatic cancer research, we can, and we must, change these statistics.
CodePurple is the only national awareness and advocacy campaign to drive a bold new approach to federal pancreatic cancer research. We need a model that is autonomous, flexible, and ambitious to tackle the major medical challenges of today. The NIH funds important basic science and research. This new initiative would leverage these and other federal research assets to build new capabilities for diseases that have not benefitted from the current system. High-impact investments with interdisciplinary capabilities will fast-track development of an early detection test and curative treatments for pancreatic cancer. We need to measure effectiveness by lives saved.
Our campaign includes television and digital public service announcements; coalition building within the medical research community, other cancer organizations, and private foundations; and development of bipartisan support with a first-in-class advocacy team to move our policy agenda forward.
THIS IS AN EMERGENCY. THIS IS #CODEPURPLE.


What the church needs most right now are God-appointed leaders who are jealous for His glory.
Years after Samuel's ministry was established, David rose to restore the glory of God back to its rightful place (see 2 Sam. 6).
When God-appoints men to leadership, their first agenda is to make sure the glory of the Lord is restored and dwells where it belongs.
The ark did not belong in the Philistine camp, Abinadab's house or Obed-Edom's house (see 2 Sam. 6). It belonged in the temple of the Lord. David gathered all the choice men in Israel with an eagerness and a zeal to restore that which was lost.
I believe the highest priority on God's heart for 2018 and beyond is the restoration of His glory in His church.
True leaders are always seeking to find grace in God's sight, and like Moses, they will not lead without the presence of God.
The greatest concern of a godly leader is for the church to be separated from the world and wholly consecrated to God. A true leader's longing and desire is to see the glory of God and have it restored among His people (Ex. 33:15-18).
It is not popularity, bigger buildings, increased attendance and more money that has priority in the hearts of godly leaders. It is the glory!
Men who live close to the heart of God know that it is only His glory that will change everything.
It's time for the glory, the manifested presence of God, to return to our churches, our personal lives, our homes, our thinking, our conversation and our conduct. The glory of God will break us from going through the motions, and make everything new, fresh and alive again.
Don't be impressed by the trappings of the production of the church and fooled by its big names and big conferences.
Elaborate buildings, large numbers of people and an increasing flow of cash have fooled much of the modern church. The church did not begin with that focus, and yet somehow, modern church principles have put the emphasis on attendance, buildings and cash.
I'm afraid there is a large gap separating the culture of the modern Western church from the heart of God as revealed through Jesus in the Gospels and through the early church.
How do you convince a believer that what they have is a counterfeit if they've never witnessed the real? I'm afraid so much of it is New Age gobbledygook and psycho-babble tainted with false motives and a desire for filthy lucre at the root of our agenda. We have so irreverently cheapened and merchandised God's sacred gifts and grieved the precious Spirit of God. Let's stop this mess! This is not Kabod (the heavy glory). This is Ichabod—further evidence that the glory has departed.
Restore the culture of the kingdom of God.
The sad truth is that in much of the church world, the culture of the kingdom of God has been lost to the culture of hype, greed, religious politics, a Hollywood Jesus and the professional business of the church to such an extent that many churches resemble a political machine or a corporation more than God's culture.
God's culture begins with the family, the home, making disciples through life relationships, reaching and caring for others with the gospel and the love of God.
The true disciples of Jesus are losing their taste for the shallow and superficial, and are separating themselves from those entangled in the appearance of spirituality. Many people have become disenchanted with the church because of hurt, misuse and abuse, religious politics and leadership caught up in the things of the flesh. People are looking for depth in the Word and in their relationships, a free-flowing move of the Spirit, personal empowerment and leadership that does not play political games.
Word received by John Fenn, World Wide House Church Network.
"See what I see, many small churches and ministries investing in relationships, walking in love, pouring their lives into each other; this is where the Spirit is moving today. There is a revolution taking place in my body, a revolution of relationships, discipleship and love. This will affect whole communities and economies.
See what I see, many churches all over the world in which people are accountable to one another, working through conflicts, walking in love and growing as my disciples. That is where my Spirit is moving today.
Return to the preaching and practice of the cross.
I believe God's promises are true, and I am all for instilling hope in people, but sometimes the best thing the church can hear are the warnings, rebukes and roadblocks of what is actually hindering revival, the glory of God and His promises from coming to pass.
There is a new gospel and new so-called national prophets—really, wolves in sheep's clothing. The false prophets Jesus warned would lead many astray in the last days. They speak peace to all those who have itching ears for something new and exotic and they cause them to trust in a lie, and subtly supplant within their hearts rebellion against the Lord (Jer. 28:15-16).
Are you in a church that understands where we are on the Biblical timeline? Is it preaching Jesus second coming and the prophetic events surrounding His return?
Is it it compromising with the world and its values (e.g. gay marriage) or is it standing on God's Word.
Listen to Jonathan and be encouraged that current world events demonstrate that God is in control down to the day, hour and even minute.
God has put you on the planet at this time in history for a purpose, are you in step with Him? If not get into prayer with like minded believers. Don't waste another minute.
IS GOD GOING TO USE MICRO-CHURCHES IN THESE LAST DAYS?
A revelation received from the Lord by Lance Wallnau on the concept of micro-churches.
"A micro-church is what Daniel had in Babylon with his three friends, Hananiah, Mishael, Azariah.
In Daniel 2:17, Daniel went to his house and made the dire situation known to his three friends. If he could not interpret Nebuchadnezzar's dream the king would kill Daniel and all the wise men of Babylon. Daniel encouraged them to seek mercies from the God of heaven—that the meaning of the dream would be revealed. Later, the secret was revealed to Daniel in a night vision. God gave him Nebuchadnezzar's dream and a download of what was going to happen in Babylon. As a result, Daniel was appointed by the king to rule over the province. When Daniel was promoted, he promoted his friends.
No matter how dark our world becomes—even if it reaches the level of sin as in the days of Babylon and Nebuchadnezzar—those with the Daniel anointing will rise to lead. The Bible says that when Nebuchadnezzar had his dream, Daniel had to reach into the supernatural dream interpreting power of God.
So what are the characteristics of a micro-church?
Common assignment. A micro-churchis when you come together with those who share the same calling and faith. A house church is different. There is no common assignment in a house church other than fellowship and mutual edification. A micro-church has a Kingdom agenda, a shared assignment that brings them together.
Small in size. I asked the Lord for another reference, and He took me to Peter's arrest in Acts 12. There again, when Peter gets supernaturally delivered he went to the one location that made sense—the house of Mary the mother of John. When he arrived he discovered many gathered together in prayer for him (Acts 12:12). It was a house filled with intercessors. A micro-church is a praying company with a common assignment. This is a group small enough to fit into a first century house.
A company of people connected to your assignment. Daniel's friends all shared the assignment of Government, but Peter's group was different. They were a company connected to the Apostolic assignmentof the twelve disciples. Therefore, even if the members do not share directly in your assignment, they may be connected to you as family and close friends. The key is that they are affected by what happens to you in the warfare of your assignment. This group could include your spouse, your closest friends, your children. Proximity is critical. Gathering together is a core principle.
Micro-church is the natural extension of any strong local or apostolic church. Not everyone has an assignment to go up against the gates of hell in the various mountains. Those who have been given this call need to be involved not only in the give and take of community life in a local church, but in a micro-church as well. You need to have a small company of people who are holding up your arms and standing with you in the assignment God gave you. And you need to be standing with someone else in the battle they face. Until the local church establishes micro-churches in proximity to the gates of influence we are not yet an Apostolic church at the end of the age.
This resonates with my spirit and I saw it operate in the company I owned and operated for 30 years – Care & Share Products. We had a prayer group that were all involved in the enterprise that prayed at least weekly for the company and more often during a crisis.


This egg cruet set is in perfect condition.
Made by Hukin and Heath, is it is exquisite example the company's craftsmanship.
Although unsigned, the design of the set can be attributed to famed and esteemed Christopher Dresser.
Each cup is magnificently maintained along with the tray.
It really is a wonderful set that has even more impact in real life.


I often get irritated when someone phones me and tries to sell me something or when I phone them and they're inable to solve my issues. But I always try to stay polite, because I know they're just doing their job. Same with store clerks and… well, pretty much everyone. But it's easy to forget when you don't actually see the person, that you are talking to a person.
The same goes for anyone working in a service based job. I work retail, and it can be tough (especially since it is the holidays and a lot of people are frazzled and short tempered.
I used to be a call centre operator, I admire anyone who can stick at it!

Shipping Container Home Installed Under-Ground
Categories: Homes / Dwellings
As a kid Steve Rees remembers playing in the dirt and how cool it felt. He learned at a young age that the earth has cooling properties. As an adult, he bought two containers and decided to bury them with the intention of creating an off-grid retirement home for himself and his wife Shirley.
After camping for a few years of on their 10 acre plot in Northern California, they hired an excavator and went to work. They did most of the work themselves, and when they finished their home, they had spent only $30,000 (solar included). Their 640-square-foot space cost them less than $50 a square foot.
Rees explains that while this is less than conventional construction costs, the savings only begin with construction. With a solar-powered well, a bit of propane and solar tubes for most of their light, they haven't had any city water or electric bills since 2002. Winter temperatures in their home (even during 20 degrees outside) never fall below 62 degrees (an RV catalytic heater is sufficient for heating). Even when the temperature rises to 110 outside in the summer, their home has never risen above 82 degrees.
When they asked the county about permitting they were told they "didn't have a permit for burying containers". They have been inspected since completing their home, just not for a single family dwelling. "We have a permitted septic system, a permitted well, everything is up to snuff as far as that goes, it's just that this is such a non-conforming type of building that they really didn't know what to do with us.
