If you are looking for an out of this world experience then you must visit the Museum of World Treasures in Kansas. Many tourists have just happened upon this gem of a museum and sung its praises to the point that it is a recommended vacation destination even if you aren't in the area! When you walk in you will be greeted by the skeleton of an albertosaurus and until you leave the museum you won't stop being amazed at all there is to see. One aspect kids love is the castle recreated with monsters and even a dungeon! Some of the other fun aspects include original documents and even pictures from American patriots, European royalty, war, presidents, and more. There are even ancient artifacts on display.
This is perhaps America's most interesting museum not to mention the most exciting. There are 10 dinosaurs on display that were alive once upon a time as well as two royal mummies from Egypt. Other amazng displays include exhibits from many of the US wars including the Revolutionary War, Civil War, both World Wars, Vietnam, Korea, and more. There are even exhibits on Hollywood Stars, the Wild West, musician and sports stars. And, if that is not enough to get your attention, there is also a puppet theater, moon walk, and more for the kids. There is so much to do and see at this museum that every American should take the time to visit and see all that is on display. It truly is impressive and very educational.
Kids under four years old get in free and adult tickets cost $8.95. Senior tickets are $7.95 and kids are $6.95. The museum is open from 10 am until 5 pm Monday through Saturday and from noon to 5 pm on Sunday. This is an amazingly affordable place to visit especially when compared to all that it offers. If you are in Wichita, Kansas, or anywhere nearby then you need to make the effort to visit the Museum of World Treasures. You won't regret it and it might be the most interesting and fun museum you have ever visited. It will certainly be the most educational!

BEP Systems appointed by Unisys & Ipswich Building Society - BEP Systems Limited BEP Systems Limited
Mortgages and Lending
Financial Portals
Servicing Portal
Property Asset Tracker
Apprivo2
About BEP
BEP Systems, the mortgage origination software house, is to provide Ipswich Building Society with a major upgrade to the Society's core lending and servicing solutions based around BEP's market-leading Apprivo2 platform as part of the core Unisys Elevate™ omnichannel banking software platform.
Ipswich Building Society is a long-established lender within the UK. As part of implementing their new digital strategy, the Ipswich is investing in advanced technologies for front end origination as well as performing an upgrade to their Unisys Financial Services System (UFSS) core banking engine.
Working with Unisys, which will continue to act as prime contractor, BEP has been selected to deliver Apprivo2 as the backbone to the new digital services platform that will take over all mortgage origination services and provide a borrower post-completion portal. All of the Ipswich's lending types will be configured on the Apprivo2 platform, including standard residential, later life, buy to let, self build, self employed and expat lending.
BEP will deliver a highly automated processing journey from point of application through to completion for both the broker and direct channels.
Leveraging several third-party data sources connected via Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) will enable the Apprivo2 decision engine to provide automated pre-screening decisions for DIPs, with the Ipswich retaining their manual underwriting approach for lending decisions and continuing to assess full mortgage applications individually. Apprivo2 will use third party APIs DocuSign for e-signatures and Quest for valuations, as well other third-party supplier banking data to streamline the mortgage process and customer journeys.
The platform for the Ipswich will additionally leverage its existing UFSS interface to provide a full post-completions self-service portal for existing borrowers, who will be able to log on and perform various functions. For instance, they will be able to retrieve account information, such as balances, transactions and statements, as well as make payments and securely message the Ipswich and upload documents on request.
Chris Little, managing director of BEP Systems, said: "I'm delighted that BEP have been appointed by Unisys and Ipswich Building Society to deliver a significant upgrade to their mortgage origination and post-completion systems. Customising Apprivo2 will support the underwriting process via its agile case-management dashboards and risk-assessment hubs. This will firmly put the Society in control of its operations as it continues to support the on-going growth strategy."
Ian Brighton, Chief Operating Officer, Ipswich Building Society, commented: "To implement our forward-thinking IT strategy, it was vital we partnered with a software company that has proven experience in our sector and a vision of the wider lending market. BEP Systems impressed us with their knowledge and their ability to work closely with Unisys to deliver seamless technology solutions for our brokers and customers, allowing us to stay at the forefront of our marketplace for many years to come."
Boris Maltha, VP, Technology EMEA, said: "BEP Systems were a logical choice for this project due to their expertise in the building society sector and their ability to integrate a variety of complex APIs into a seamless journey for brokers and customers. It's been a well-managed project that will have immediate benefits for Ipswich Building Society and keep them ahead of their competitors for years to come."

A new home for the Pointe-à-Callière Foundation
Montréal, March 6, 2013 – The Mariners' House provides new homes for the Pointe-à-Callière Foundation and the Members Club.
The Pointe-à-Callière Foundation, created in 1993, is a charitable organization intended to foster a sense of identification with the Museum's mission and to bring together the resources needed to support the Museum's activities aimed at conserving and sharing our collective heritage and educating the public.. Through the financial assistance it offers the Museum, the Foundation contributes to research, helps to preserve the archaeological remains of Montréal's birthplace and supports the development of its many collections. It also helps to produce exhibitions and supports the development of cultural events and educational activities for young people, schools and families. Russell Goodman is the current President of the Foundation.
The Members' Club: a new gathering place
The many Members of the Museum now have a new gathering space: a lounge designed just for them. These Members are an important support group for the Museum, and many of them volunteer to help out at different Museum activities and events. These archaeology, history and culture buffs are true ambassadors for the Museum, and this new Members' Lounge is a way of thanking them and showing how much the Pointe-à-Callière team appreciates their work. The Lounge is located on Level 3 of the Mariners' House.
Concrete, highly significant achievements
Right from the start, the Foundation has been involved in preserving and showcasing Montréal's first Catholic cemetery, introducing school programs, renewing the multimedia show on Montréal's history, creating the Archaeological Field School, and acquiring and showcasing the Youville Pumping Station and the Mariners' House.
A major fundraising campaign
In 2013, the Foundation is conducting a major fundraising campaign aimed at helping the Museum create the Montréal Archaeology and History Complex, a world-class museum and tourism complex that will bring together some ten different sites that played significant roles in the history of Montréal, Quebec and Canada as a whole. The Co-Presidents of this important campaign, to be officially launched in fall 2013, are Louis Vachon, President and CEO of National Bank, and David McAusland, Partner with the McCarthy Tétrault legal firm.

Birdingbury is a village and civil parish in the Rugby district of Warwickshire, England, just south of the River Leam, and not far from Draycote Water. It is located roughly halfway between Rugby and Leamington Spa, about eight miles from each.  According to the 2001 census it had a population of 327, increasing to 362 at the 2011 Census.

History
The village was recorded in the Domesday Book as Derbinggerie. It was given to the Monks of Coventry by Leofric, Earl of Mercia. The village appears as Birbury on the Christopher Saxton map of 1637.

Birdingbury today consists mostly of 20th century developments, but Birdingbury Hall dates back to the early 17th century, and was rebuilt in Jacobean style in the mid to late 19th century following a major fire, it is a grade II listed building. The current St Leonard's Church in the village dates from the late 18th century, but was enlarged in 1873. It is also grade II listed.

Birdingbury once had a railway station, about a mile north of the village centre, it opened in 1851 and closed in 1959, on the former Rugby to Leamington Spa line, which has been partly converted into a cycleway as part of the National Cycle Network.

It was announced in March 2021 that the Lias Line cycle route improvements, passing through Birdingbury as Cycle Route 41, were to commence in Mid 2021, with completion by the Summer of 2022. The development will transition the majority of the route onto traffic-free sections of the former railway line, with the first phase beginning near Rugby.

Travelocity ships media to Havas and creative to Proof Advertising
Decisions follow separate reviews in April, ahead of a year of "risk-taking' for the travel site
By Lindsay Rittenhouse. Published on July 09, 2019.
Modelo owner Constellation Brands puts media account in review
Travelocity, the online travel agent bought by Expedia for $280 million in 2015, has chosen Havas and Proof Advertising as its media and creative agencies of record, respectively, following a review that kicked off sometime around April.
Austin, Texas-based independent shop Proof will handle all creative and strategic duties for the brand after beating out four "huge agencies" in the final round of the pitch, including incumbent Interpublic Group of Cos.' Campbell Ewald, according to Laura Molnar, head of brand marketing for Expedia. She told Ad Age that all media responsibilities were handed to Havas, which is also the AOR for Travelocity sister company Orbitz.
A Havas spokeswoman said Travelocity will be managed by Havas-owned Arena Media Agency in Chicago.
Campbell Ewald, which did not return a request for comment, was awarded lead creative duties in 2015, ending Travelocity's partnership with McKinney, the agency that created the brand's trusty roaming-gnome mascot in 2003.
Assembly was handed Travelocity's media account in 2015 but Molnar said the company consolidated all of its advertising duties with Campbell Ewald sometime last year.
"Campbell Ewald has been a fantastic partner," Molnar said. "But the brand is going to be taking a risk in the coming year and we wanted a partner who could take a fresh look at the category and bring in really unique advertising."
That risk, she said, will be a new product that Travelocity expects to debut in a campaign from Proof in March 2020. Molnar declined to provide further details on the product. The campaign is expected to span TV, digital, social and experiential.
"Travelocity started the entire online-travel-agency category, but has found itself battling a category of 'me too' brands," Proof CEO Bryan Christian added. "The brand has great things in the works from a product offering perspective, and we're eager to put our strategic and creative talents to work on helping them fully capitalize on their new direction and once again stand out far above the pack."
Molnar said Proof officially started on the account on July 1 and Havas is set to take over media duties on Sept. 1, at which time the brand will no longer work with Campbell Ewald.
"Our brand voice is friendly and authentic and all of the people who work here are too," Molnar said, explaining what drew Travelocity to Proof in particular. "We wanted to have an agency that had that as well in their blood. And that when you went there, you saw people are happy. Proof by far was that way."
She said it helped that Travelocity's Dallas headquarters are in close proximity to Proof's base in Austin.
According to Kantar Media estimates, Travelocity spent $43 million on measured media in the U.S. in 2018, down from $125 million in 2017.
Molnar did not confirm those numbers but did say the brand has decreased its budget. "That is a fact," she said, "we're expected to do more with less."
The most recognizable creative that came from Campbell Ewald was probably Travelocity's "Wander Wisely" tagline. That campaign debuted in 2016, one year after the agency was hired, and focused on the unique destinations where travelers can go, with the gnome offering words of wisdom: "Be your own guide."
Molnar added that the gnome isn't going anywhere.

Last Wednesday this meeting was held at La Villa Boutique Hotel with as Chair the Ambassador of the European Union to Ghana, H.E. Diana ACCONCIA. The purpose of the dialogue was the identification of areas where the EU could intervene to assist the private sector of Ghana in the period 2021-2028. Present next to an EU Delegation were the different EU Nation state business chambers such as the German, French, Spanish, Hungarian and off course the GNBCC. Furthermore representatives of the Ghana such as Association of Ghana Industries –AGI as well as the Ghana National Chamber of Commerce & Industry (GNCCI). Also some big companies took part in the dialogue such as Coca Cola Bottling Company and DHL Global Forwarding.
Speaking to the participants the following question was posed: Ghana needs investment so how can the EU stimulate private investment; on this GNBCC remarked that the EU can develop financial support through loans and (investment) insurances in cooperation with Banks and Insurance companies. Loans and insurances which do not cost an arm and a leg and with Institutions who support investments in Ghana. Also the EU should support the implementation of AfCFTA – the African Continental Free Trade Area because this would make trade between African countries much easier. The EU should oppose Ghana initiatives which want the Free Trade Area only benefitting indigenous owned companies (https://thebftonline.com/20/01/2021/over-reliance-on-fdis-undermines-afcftas-rules-of-origin-trade-expert/) ; because this populist tendency opposes Foreign Direct Investment and in this narrative a Ghanaian Company with Ghanaian staff employing many Ghanaians and relies on Ghanaian suppliers but is partly or wholly owned by a foreign non Ghanaian investor or shareholder should not benefit from the African Continental Free Trade Area . This tendency opposes the core of AfCFTA and is very damaging for the Ghana Economy; it will lead to disinvestment.
The AGI would like to see the capacity of Ghanaian companies to be improved so they can better partner with EU companies. One of the private companies remarked that transparency is very important for foreign investors and also the logistics between African countries should be improved; it's still cheaper to export to or via EU countries compared to the costs and official paperwork needed to do a direct export to a neighbouring West African country (the AfCFTA is still in its infancy and the in 1975 set up ECOWAS is still no Customs Union);for example it's still very hard to export from Ghana to Nigeria .
Other remarks were that the combined tax burden in Ghana is quite high; if you add up all the taxes you have to pay as a company your tax burden can be 35% (low) to almost 55%, with that Ghana is among the highest in Africa with taxes. As such Ghana needs EU support to improve on its tax policies, a very large part of Ghana society – the informal sector- still remains untaxed although it's 75% of Ghana's economy.
Also the good initiatives of the last 4 years are not operating as intended: the ports are still not paperless, there is still a lot of smuggling, business rules and regulations are changed negatively without prior notice or consultation and problems continue with regulations and standardization . AGI remarked that there is still a lot of under invoicing & under declaration next to the smuggling which is unfair competition to the local companies. The same applies for the VAT exemptions which are granted to some importers which makes the local companies, who do pay VAT ,uncompetitive.
Important issues for Ghana to which the EU can be supportive, which also came forward as the result of a business survey among companies, are: establishment of a one stop shop for companies and investors – now still too many agencies are involved asking the same or almost the same paperwork; easy and transparent access to agencies and user friendly digital services.

Among the many roles for SCAR is to coordinate the acquisition and dissemination of geographic information through the Geoscience Standing Scientific Group (GSSG). SCAR has promulgated cartographic standards for use in Antarctica since 1961. As Antarctica is mapped by agencies in many nations, the use of and adherence to agreed international standards is of obvious value to all those who work on this continent. Since 1996 the adoption and use of TC211 standards for geographic data has been encouraged.

Chartmonger DJ Khaled missed out on the #1 spot with his last album, 2019's Father Of Asahd — not for lack of trying — but, considering the lack of competition this week, it seems likely that the star-studded guest list for his new album Khaled Khaled will do the trick.
The album, which is out now and was announced earlier this week, features appearances from Jay-Z, Drake (on the previously released "Popstar" and "Greece"), Justin Bieber, Justin Timberlake, Nas, Post Malone, Megan Thee Stallion, DaBaby, Lil Baby, Lil Wayne, Jeremih, Migos, Roddy Ricch, H.E.R., A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, Big Sean, Rick Ross, Puff Daddy, Meek Mill, and a whole host of Jamaican dance hall stars including Buju Banton, Capleton, Bounty Killer, and Barrington Levy. And there's a previously unannounced bonus track with Cardi B.
You can listen to Khaled Khaled below.

Audio Book Review: Winds of Fortune (Provincetown Tales Book 5) by Radclyffe
Publisher: Audible Studios
Format: Audio
Length: 10 hours 16 minutes
Narrator: Nicol Zanzarella
Genre: lgbt fiction, romance
Buy: Audible | Kindle
The fifth in the saga of the Provincetown Tales. The winds of fortune are fickle guides...and happiness or heartbreak may be the destination. For Provincetown local Deo Camara, the only winds that have ever blown her way have been cold and lonely, and she doesn't expect things to improve when she is drawn into a family crisis against her will. Despite a decade of estrangement, however, Deo can't turn her back on the call of blood, no matter how high the price in heartache.
Dr. Bonita Burgoyne is pleased with the changes she's made in her life...she has a rewarding new job and is looking forward to renovating the historic sea captain's house she has just purchased. She's content, and that's all she needs to be, or so she thinks until she hires Deo to head up the renovations. They have nothing in common except a shared legacy of betrayal by those they'd trusted the most, and an impossible attraction they would both prefer to ignore.
Meanwhile, Bonita's new associate Dr. Tory King and her partner, Reese Conlon, must cero with the aftermath of the winds of war and the approaching fury of a very real gathering storm.
Bonita doesn't trust anyone after she lost her family for the love of a woman who made her obsessed but didn't return her loyalty. Deo is a strong, fun loving woman who has a wicked reputation with the women and has issues with some of her large Portuguese family. Deo is a contractor with a passion for restoration. Bonita just bought a run down house that hasn't been inhabited for several years. Can Bonita get past her fear and her lust and let Deo fixed both the walls in her house and her heart?
Great installment of this series. Reese is still having issues returning to civilian life but hopefully with Tory's help she can find her way back.

Audio Book Review: Storms of Change (Provincetown Tales Book 4) by Radclyffe
Amidst war abroad and upheaval at home, Reese Conlon and Tory King face their gravest challenge to their life together. Can love and passion survive the unforgiving storms of change? In the continuing saga of the Provincetown Tales, Reese Conlon's obligations to family and country are put to the test as war engulfs the Middle East, while her partner Tory King must chose between her career and motherhood when her family is disrupted. While friends and family struggle with the fears and uncertainties of a world in strife, the small seaside town is rocked by a series of crimes that suggest newly arrived real estate entrepreneur, Ricarda Grechi, may have connections to more than just the business world. State Police Detective Carter Wayne intends to find out.
I struggled through this book. I think I like Reese a bit too much because I felt almost as bereft as Tory at the thought of Reese going to war. Even when she returns Reese is changed and Tory struggles with what to do. Meanwhile Rica the daughter of a mob boss comes to town to escape her father and open an art gallery. Carter Wayne is undercover to seduce Rica and find out how much she may know or be involved with her fathers organization but Carters heart starts to get in the way of this being only a job.
Despite the heartache of Reese being gone the other characters really stepped up and made this a good book. The romance between Rica and Carter is complicated but super hot. Great romance but I wouldn't call this a stand alone book.

Audio Book Review: Darkness Absolute (Casey Duncan #2) by Kelley Armstrong
Publisher: MacMillan Audio
Narrator: Therese Plummer
Genre:Mystery/thriller, police procedural
When experienced homicide detective Casey Duncan first moved to the secret town of Rockton, she expected a safe haven for people like her, people running from their past misdeeds and past lives. She knew living in Rockton meant living off the grid completely: no cell phones, no Internet, no mail, very little electricity, and no way of getting in or out without the town council's approval. What she didn't expect is that Rockton comes with its own set of secrets and dangers. Now, in A Darkness Absolute, Casey and her fellow Rockton sheriff's deputy Will chase a cabin-fevered resident into the woods, where they are stranded in a blizzard. Taking shelter in a cave, they discover a former resident who's been held captive for over a year. When the bodies of two other women turn up, Casey and her colleagues must find out if it's an outsider behind the killings or if the answer is more complicated than that...before another victim goes missing.
You never know what you are going to find when you wander in the Yukon wilderness. When Casey and her fellow deputy Will chase after a run away resident they seek shelter in a cave that holds more than just shelter. Finding a young woman in a hole in the middle of the cave who had been missing and presumed dead from Rockton several years ago Casey now has a new mystery to solve.
Rockton is not a place for the faint of heart. It is rustic, no electricity, no wifi, and no phones. If you go out in the woods there is a good chance you will get lost and not find your way back. Rockton is full of characters but other than Casey and her hunky wilderness raised boyfriend the Sheriff I think that Mathias the French Canadian butcher is by far one of the most interesting. Full of secrets and a bit creepy Mathias and Casey really bond in this book.
I love the scenes Armstrong sets, she really puts you in the forest with these characters. I'm so happy I found this series.

Audio Book Review: City of the Lost ( Casey Duncan #1) by Kelley Armstrong
Casey Duncan is a homicide detective with a secret: when she was in college, she killed a man. She was never caught, but he was the grandson of a mobster and she knows that someday this crime will catch up to her. Casey's best friend, Diana, is on the run from a violent, abusive ex-husband. When Diana's husband finds her, and Casey herself is attacked shortly after, Casey knows it's time for the two of them to disappear again.
Diana has heard of a town made for people like her, a town that takes in people on the run who want to shed their old lives. You must apply to live in Rockton and if you're accepted, it means walking away entirely from your old life, and living off the grid in the wilds of Canada: no cell phones, no Internet, no mail, no computers, very little electricity, and no way of getting in or out without the town council's approval. As a murderer, Casey isn't a good candidate, but she has something they want: She's a homicide detective, and Rockton has just had its first real murder. She and Diana are in. However, soon after arriving, Casey realizes that the identity of a murderer isn't the only secret Rockton is hiding—in fact, she starts to wonder if she and Diana might be in even more danger in Rockton than they were in their old lives.
I got hooked on this series when I received book 4 from Netgalley. I really liked it and loved the characters and the whole concept of this town in the middle of the Yukon that houses people who are running, running from the law, running from abuse or just need to be missing. Although book 4 told me a lot of what had already occurred in Rockton I wanted to read about it for myself so I got books 1-3 on audio.
Casey and her best friend Diana are both running from their past. Casey from a bad decision after she is badly attacked in an alley and Diana from her abusive husband. They both apply to Rockton to try to start anew. Although it might not be too new for Casey since she is brought to Rockton to be a detective, and her first case makes her realize just how dangerous this town can be. In the middle of the wilderness with no phones, no electricity and no comforts of 20th century this is detecting like it was done before international databases, fingerprint bases and other CSI stuff.
I loved this book and it really gives you a great introduction to this town. If I could have read the beginning of this series from the start I think I would have been even more in love with the latest book. The character development is great and the plot is a new one for me. I highly recommend this series.

ARC Book Review: The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides
Publisher: Celadon Books
Buy: Kindle | Hardcover | Audio
Alicia Berenson's life is seemingly perfect. A famous painter married to an in-demand fashion photographer, she lives in a grand house with big windows overlooking a park in one of London's most desirable areas. One evening her husband Gabriel returns home late from a fashion shoot, and Alicia shoots him five times in the face, and then never speaks another word.
Alicia's refusal to talk, or give any kind of explanation, turns a domestic tragedy into something far grander, a mystery that captures the public imagination and casts Alicia into notoriety. The price of her art skyrockets, and she, the silent patient, is hidden away from the tabloids and spotlight at the Grove, a secure forensic unit in North London.
Theo Faber is a criminal psychotherapist who has waited a long time for the opportunity to work with Alicia. His determination to get her to talk and unravel the mystery of why she shot her husband takes him down a twisting path into his own motivations―a search for the truth that threatens to consume him....
I'm still reeling from the end of this book. Not many books surprise me but this one took me completely off guard. The ending was an OMG moment. Kudos to Michaelides for this brilliant mystery that keeps you guessing and has plenty of other leads and paths to follow that take you away from the real culprit. I was sucked into this book from the beginning, the mystery of a woman who hasn't spoken for so many years after she is accused of killing her husband. She paints a mysterious painting before she is institutionalized titled after a tragedy by Euripides. But no one can figure out its meaning or why she hasn't spoken. Theo Faber is determined to help her, he gets a job at the hospital she is in and asks to take on her case. What he discovers is a world of men who have coveted her, used her and deceived her, yet she still won't speak. As Theo delves into her past to see if he can find the key to unlocking her voice we also learn about Theo's life, his devotion to his wife, an actress who he finds is deceiving him and watch him slowly unravel.
Brilliantly written, I can't say enough about this book.

ARC Book Review: Watcher in the Woods: a Rockton Novel (Casey Duncan #4) by Kelley Armstrong
Publisher: Minotaur Books
The secret town of Rockton has seen some rocky times lately; understandable considering its mix of criminals and victims fleeing society for refuge within its Yukon borders. Casey Duncan, the town's only detective on a police force of three, has already faced murder, arson, and falling in love in the several months that she's lived there. Yet even she didn't think it would be possible for an outsider to locate the town and cause trouble in the place she's come to call home.
When a US Marshal shows up demanding the release of one of the residents, but won't say who, Casey and her boyfriend, Sheriff Eric Dalton, are skeptical. And yet only hours later, the marshal is shot dead and the only possible suspects are the townspeople and Casey's estranged sister, smuggled into town to help with a medical emergency. It's up to Casey to figure out who murdered the marshal, and why someone would kill to keep him quiet—before the killer strikes again.
I was drawn into this book from the very beginning. I didn't realize it was the 4th in a series until after I had started reading it so while only half way through I bought the first one to start when I was done with this one. I'm hooked on Rockton and Casey Duncan and need to know her from the first moment she set foot in Rockton. While there is a lot of back story Watcher in the Woods can be a stand alone, Armstrong does a great job of catching you up on what you missed I just want all the details not just the summary. Strong plot, interesting characters and a really interesting little town. I could totally see this evolving into a tv series, as her books for Bitten did I mean who can resist a town full of fugitives...with these neighbors you never have to look for trouble - its already there.

Audio Book Review: Beyond the Breakwater (Provincetown Tales book 2) by Radclyffe
Beyond the Breakwater, the sequel to Safe Harbor,Sheriff Reese Conlon and Doctor Tory King face the challenges of personal change as they define their lives and future together. Dr. Tory King's pregnancy forces her to examine her personal needs and goals while her partner, Sheriff Reese Conlon, struggles with her escalating anxieties over conditions she cannot control. Twenty-year-old Brianna Parker makes a sacrifice for love that threatens not just her happiness, but her life, when she returns home as the newest member of the Sheriff's department. A life-threatening accident, a suspicious fire, and the appearance of more than one woman vying for Bri's attentions makes one Provincetown summer a time of transformation as each woman learns the true meaning of love, friendship, and family.
These books make me want to plan a trip back to P-town. Reese and Tory are having a baby and Bri and Caroline are struggling with their relationship and Bri's father is struggling with having his daughter putting herself in danger as a cop.
As always Radclyffe delivers a great romance but also includes a bit of tension to add to to it. I like this series and how there always seems to be one more added person to the growing social circle.
Nicol Zanzarella is great at the narration and helps to keep you engaged.

Audio Book Review: Out of the Dark: an Orphan X novel by Gregg Hurwitz
Publisher: Brilliance Audio
Narrator: Scott Brick
Genre:Thriller/suspense
Buy: Audible | Kindle | Paperback
Taken from a group home at age twelve, Evan Smoak was raised and trained as part of the Orphan Program, an off-the-books operation designed to create deniable intelligence assets—i.e. assassins. Evan was Orphan X. He broke with the Program, using everything he learned to disappear and reinvent himself as the Nowhere Man, a man who helps the truly desperate when no one else can. But now Evan's past is catching up to him.
Someone at the very highest level of government has been trying to eliminate every trace of the Orphan Program by killing all the remaining Orphans and their trainers. After Evan's mentor and the only father he ever knew was killed, he decided to strike back. His target is the man who started the Program and who is now the most heavily guarded person in the world: the President of the United States.
But President Bennett knows that Orphan X is after him and, using weapons of his own, he's decided to counter-attack. Bennett activates the one man who has the skills and experience to track down and take out Orphan X—the first recruit of the Program, Orphan A.
With Evan devoting all his skills, resources, and intelligence to find a way through the layers of security that surround the President, suddenly he also has to protect himself against the deadliest of opponents. It's Orphan vs. Orphan with the future of the country—even the world—on the line.
I got hooked on these books through Netgalley and when I saw there was a new one I had to grab it. This time I chose an audio book because I wanted to see if I felt any different about the characters between reading them and listening to them and I did not. The narrator was terrific, really captured Evan well. Of course taking on the President of the United States is not the easiest of tasks but Orphan X is the best and of course he couldn't just focus on that job he had to help a young autistic boy who finds himself in trouble. I actually really like the interaction between Evan and the young man he chooses to help as the Nowhere Man, due to Evan's upbringing he is very much autistic in his interactions. He doesn't understand the nuances of social interaction or of friends but he tries and its sweet and terrifying to see his attempts. I was really glad to see the return of the young hacker Evan helped save in the last book and hope that we see more of her in the future. She breaks through Evan's barriers and reminds him to be human and so does his relationship with his neighbor and her son but that has its own set of problems.

ARC Review: The Bold World: A Memoir of Family and Transformation by Jodie Patterson
Publisher: Ballantine Books
Genre: Memoir
As an African American growing up on Manhattan's Upper West Side in the 1970s, when neighborhoods defined people, Jodie Patterson learned early on to engage with her community for strength and comfort. But then in 2009 this mother of five had her world turned upside down. Realizing that her definition of community wasn't wide enough for her own child's needs, Patterson forced the world wide open.
In The Bold World, we witness a mother reshaping her attitudes and beliefs, as well as those of her community, to meet the needs of her transgender son, Penelope— and opening the minds of everyone in her family who absolutely, unequivocally refused to conform.
As we walk alongside Patterson on her journey, we meet
the Southern women who came before her—the mother, grandmothers, and aunts who raised and fortified her, all the while challenging cultural norms and gender expectations. She shares her family's history—particularly incidents within the Black community around sexism, racism, and civil rights. We learn about her children, who act as a vehicle for Jodie Patterson's own growth and acceptance of her diverse family, and her experiences as a wife, mother, and, eventually, activist. The result is an intimate portrait and an exquisite study in identity, courage, and love. Patterson's relentless drive to change the world will resonate with and inspire us all, reflecting our own individual strength and tenacity, our very real fears, and, most of all, our singular ability to transform despite the odds.
This book was very different than I expected but it was also more than I expected. I expected a tale of a woman raising a trans gender child instead what I got was a rich history of an African-American matriarchy who have created strength, community, culture, and comfort to their family. It is a book about a family where gender roles were very specific and learning how to bend them. It is a beautiful book dedicated not to just Jodie parenting her son Penelope (he still wants to use this name) but to her family and her childhood and her discovery of who she is and where she fits as a wife, mother, and person.
Wonderfully accessible Pattersons thoughtful and honest ideas on gender and being black in America, of being a black woman in America are worth the read. There is so much to take away from this book my head is swimming. I am grateful that it crossed my path and that I was drawn to read it.

Audio Book Review: City of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab
Publisher: Scholastic Audio
Length: 5 hours 2 minutes
Narrator: Reba Burh
Genre: fiction, middle school, ghosts
Ever since Cass almost drowned (okay, she did drown, but she doesn't like to think about it), she can pull back the Veil that separates the living from the dead...and enter the world of spirits. Her best friend is even a ghost.
So things are already pretty strange. But they're about to get much stranger.
When Cass's parents start hosting a TV show about the world's most haunted places, the family heads off to Edinburgh, Scotland. Here, graveyards, castles, and secret passageways teem with restless phantoms. And when Cass meets a girl who shares her "gift", she realizes how much she still has to learn about the Veil - and herself.
And she'll have to learn fast. The city of ghosts is more dangerous than she ever imagined.
I loved this book and I really want another! Cass's best friend is a ghost. When she almost drowned he helped save her and now he seems to reside in the living world with her. However Cass can also peel back the veil to the afterworld and see ghosts that haven't yet crossed over but are lingering around with unfinished business.
When Cass and her parents go to Scotland for a TV show about the worlds most haunted places Cass meets another person like her who may have some insight into why she is the way she is and what the purpose of her being able to do what she does is.
Everything about this book was fun, interesting and new. It was a refreshing read and a refreshing take on seeing ghosts. I like the mythology around how Cass can help ghosts cross over and why being beyond the Veil is getting harder and harder to pull back from. Great read!

Audio Book Review: Safe Harbor by Radclyffe
Length: 8 hours 14 minutes
A mysterious newcomer, a reclusive doctor, and a troubled gay teenager learn about love, friendship, and trust during one tumultuous summer in Provincetown. Reese Conlon, Lt Col USMCR, is the new sheriff who has heads turning amidst speculation as to who will be the first woman to capture her attentions. Doctor Victoria King has been betrayed by love once and refuses to risk heartbreak again. Brianna Parker, the teenage daughter of Reese's chief, fears her father's wrath when he learns that she loves another girl. As these three women struggle to live and love in freedom, they risk their hearts and souls to give one another a safe harbor.
I couldn't resist reading this. There is no place like P-town (Provincetown) in summer. Reese is all business, she seems oblivious to the longing looks of the women in town as she patrols, but there is something about Dr. Victoria King that draws her in. Reese has never had a relationship, she isn't even sure she is gay but she feels a pull every time the doctor is near her. Dr. King is leery of the new deputy sheriff. She has been burned before and with Reese's good looks she is either a player or may even be straight, either way Dr. King can't trust herself around her. She knows if she gives in Reese could break her heart.
This is a nice love story with a gay bashing mystery that gets resolved a little too quickly. Good lesbian romance novel with sexy love scenes and passion set in the biggest gay tourist town. If you've been to P-town you will recognize the settings, the tea dances and can put yourself in the story which is always fun.

$20,000 each for immigrants' sham marriages
politics | Jul 30, 2018 | By Martin Barillas
Valeriy Tsoy (35) -- a citizen of Kazakhstan -- was found guilty of marriage fraud by a federal jury in Orlando, Florida. Also on July 23, Zafar Bakhramovic Yadigarov (27) of Uzbekistan) pleaded guilty to marriage fraud and conspiracy to commit marriage fraud. Each of the two illegal immigrants face a maximum penalty of five years in federal prison. Tsoy's sentencing hearing is scheduled for October 24, while Yadigarov's sentencing is scheduled for October 10. Each of them was indicted on August 30, 2017.
In 2015, federal agents from Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Homeland Security Investigations worked with the Brevard County Clerk of the Court to investigate a significant surge in the number of aliens from Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and other former Soviet countries fraudulently marrying American citizens Brevard County, Florida. The leader of the marriage fraud ring, Dennis Yakovlev, admitted to facilitating at least 50 sham marriages over an 18-month span.
The foreign nationals, hailing from Ukraine, Russia, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, China, India, Belarus, and Turkey, traveled to Brevard County from around the United States. Yakovlev claimed that he was typically paid $1,000 to $2,000 per sham marriage and that the American citizens were paid between $10,000 and $20,000 each. Many of the aliens who engaged in these marriages initially entered the country on student visas, but later fell out of legal status. Nine individuals, including Tsoy and Yadigarov, have been convicted of marriage fraud charges during the course of this investigation.
The testimony and evidence in Tsoy's trial indicated that, in 2015, Tsoy was living in Brooklyn, New York on an expired visa. In an effort to gain permanent residence in the United States, he sought out the services of a fraudulent wedding facilitator (Yakovlev). Tsoy then traveled to Brevard County to marry a U.S. citizen (April Moore). In exchange for the marriage and the filing of immigration documents, Tsoy paid Yakovlev, Moore, and a recruiter approximately $10,000. Tsoy spent a few hours with Moore before marrying her on July 6, 2015, at the courthouse in Titusville.
According to court documents, while living on a temporary student visa in Brooklyn in 2015, Yadigarov traveled to Brevard County to meet with Yakovlev and a U.S. citizen wife-to-be (Meghan Toole). Shortly thereafter, Yadigarov married Toole and returned to Brooklyn. Yadigarov and Toole filed immigration paperwork in an effort to secure his legal permanent residence.

Spero News writer Martin Barillas is a former US diplomat, who also worked as a democracy advocate and election observer in Latin America. His first novel 'Shaken Earth', is available at Amazon.


The senior Art Exhibit and Reception was held on Sunday, April 24. Each student displayed a compilation of art they have created over the years for the MDSA community to enjoy. We are very proud of our senior art students!


Way back in 1949 the founder of the company, the late Mr Julius Lobenstein, who arrived in this country ten years earlier as a refugee from Nazi oppression - started a business that he knew nothing about. As he often joked: "I didn't know the difference between a switch socket and a coil of fuse wire", but he learnt fast.
He chose the electrical trade because he had a hunch that after the ravages of the World War there was bound to be an enormous increase in house building of which wiring is an essential component. Together with his son Joe, who was then in his early 20's, they started a small electrical wholesale business located in the backroom of their residence in North London.
In the early post-war years to possess ones own delivery van was a luxury they could not afford. They travelled through the length and breadth of London by public transport. They were glad when a contractor ordered a few rolls of cable which they wrapped in a parcel and hand-delivered on the following day. Jaylow grew gradually and it soon became clear that the company had outgrown its tiny operating base. They managed to purchase an adjoining residential property which became its home for many years.
Outwardly not very glorious, but growth was impressive. From its very inception Jaylow's motto was:"The best quality goods at the best possible service to the customer and at the most competitive prices".
In 1973 the founder of the company passed away leaving his son Joe - assisted by a small team of staff - to "carry the can". Jaylow was always meant to be a family business; so when his son Morris completed his studies he joined the company and after a few years of apprenticeship was appointed Director - a position he fills with great efficiency.


Just now, I messaged him this picture and he said, "Don't post that."
"It's not worthy," he replied.
Well, I beg to differ. I even tasted this baby (of course I had to spit my bite out and not swallow it thanks to my evil gluten hating intestines) and it was amazing. The slightly tangy and complex flavor, the chewiness, and the crispy crust were flawless.
So... sorry, Samuel. You have no choice but to bask in the glory and accept that you have become an amazing bread baker in the past months.
Oh, by the way, I actually have a hilarious story about my last post (you know, the Marshmallow Crunch Brownies).
So we had a friend over and I gave him a few brownies to take home with him on the train when he left because he liked them so much.
On the train, he was eating them, the marshmallow pulling away in strings of sugary gooiness (gooey-ness?) as he took each bite. He noticed a woman was staring at him.
"Excuse me, but where did you buy that?" she asked.
"Oh I didn't buy it, my friend made it," he replied.
"Can I have some of it?" she asked, not seeming to mind that it was half eaten.
As soon as she tasted it she started dancing around in joy and asking what was in it and how it was made. Our friend said he had no idea, but he showed her my Facebook page where she could find the recipe. She thanked him and stowed the last bite of the brownie in her purse to share with her husband and son back at home.
Well, bold woman from the train, if you're reading this, thanks for making my day.
Anyway, about this french toast. You all seemed to like my last strange pregnancy-brain flavor combo with brie cheese, so I decided not to fight it. Hopefully you aren't getting too freaked out yet. I promise that my next post won't be a watermelon and pickle flavored ice cream. I mean... I'm not promising. It just probably won't be. But it might be. No it won't be! I'll control myself.
Ugh. Just make this french toast. Bye.
P.S. What do you guys think of the updated blog design? If you're looking at this on mobile then don't answer that because I know the mobile version still needs some work. I spent about 5 billion hours on it though so I hope you like it somewhat.
Beat the eggs, milk, yogurt, and vanilla in a large shallow dish.
Soak the bread in the mixture for at least 5 minutes on each side or until it's soggy.
Heat a pan over medium heat and then melt the butter in the pan.
Place one bread slice on the pan. Top with a layer of sliced brie cheese, then a layer of sliced strawberries. Top with the other slice of bread and cover the pan. Cook for about 5 minutes or until the bottom is browned and then flip. continue cooking for another few minutes or until both sides are browned and the cheese is melted.
Serve with warmed Nutella (I warmed some in the microwave) and more strawberries.

BIG kitchen renovation, floor to ceiling, completed in March 2018. Very happy with the end result! The job did take longer than expected, but there were issues with our cabinets. No fault of Classic Construction. We were lucky to have BIll Burdiss as our contractor. He looked out for us and made sure everything was done right. We will be calling Classic Construction again!

Have you tried different browser?
If your problem with chrome?
Yes the problem is with Chrome, seems fine in IE.
Then, download and install it again.
Hello, I have reinstalled my OS because of some other issues. I still have problems playing 4k video in Chrome.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=14&v=0tjc7aihNjk this is the video that I am talking about. It's playing flawlessly in Internet Explorer but it's probably playing at less than 10 FPS in Chrome. I have also noticed other web apps running significantly slower in Chrome than in IE.
I have really big problems while I am browsing the internet, the yoga is slow even in facebook!
Not to mention that my temperatures are always at about 60C and my Yoga is always hot in the upper right corner I dont know if this is normal. Right now as I am typing my CPU temp is 60-65C and the only things I have opened are the browser with 2-3 tabs that are inactive atm, Windows Mail and Task manager. I use Lenovo Settings to check the temperature.
I just tried to play that video on a dell laptop (i5 CPU) in Chrome and it lags at ONLY 4k option.
I think its a generic problem with chrome or that video. Have you tried playing other videos which are NOT 4k?
Hello. Thanks for the information, and I havent seen this one. It gives the reason behind the problem, but there is no solution. Is there a way to solve this problem?
P.S. I also have similar problems with websites that have some kind of animations or fancy UI. Playing some online games is also a pain in the *** with Chrome but they are perfectly ok in IE. Is it because of the same reason?


What Product will eventually replace IgG Food Allergy Testing?
Since I've been watching the news headlines about food allergies I've come to the conclusion that western medicine will only acknowledge the importance of food sensitivities (aka. hidden food allergies) only when it becomes profitable for them to do so.
For example, integrative medicine heals food allergies by addressing the root of the problem via: reducing toxicity, boosting immunity, and reducing exposure to allergen allowing natural healing process.) In contrast, western medicine chooses to explore ways to heal food allergies by exploring only these options: medication and vaccines (which increases toxicity), and oral immunotherapy (which increases allergen exposure).
The most interesting advancement to date by western medicine is on online product planned for release next year, an online allergy "calculator" that claims 97% accuracy in identifying cow dairy, egg and peanut allergies. Details about the Cork-Southampton calculator are published in the Journal of Allergy & Immunology. It's interesting to note that the patient must undergo a food elimination diet before the calculator will be useful.
In conclusion, patients can get the exact same results as the "online calculator" just by following a food elimination diet and monitoring all reactions. Of course, my recommendation is to just get tested for hidden food allergies (IgG antibodies in blood.) The IgG tests just take all the work and guess work out of the traditional food elimination diet and it detects allergies as well as sensitivities, and it doesn't put the patient's health at risk.

Can Oakland, a new capital of legal weed, undo the injustices of the war on drugs?
Nina Parks was working as a music video producer in 2014 when her brother was arrested and sentenced to a year at New York City's Rikers Island for marijuana possession. He was on the verge of launching a cannabis delivery service in the Bay Area at the time. "All the paperwork was put in," Parks said. "He had branded it and gotten all the packaging, the promo stuff, the clothing." Parks, a Filipino American with botanical tattoos twisting down her left arm, had spent much of her career working with formerly incarcerated youth. When she spoke to her brother in jail, he sounded dispirited, worried that he'd be shut out of his own company or pushed into the black market. "It was imperative that I find avenues to advocate for him," Parks said. She decided to take over the company and today is the CEO of Mirage Medicinal, a delivery service based in her native San Francisco.
She's also a founder of Supernova Women, a group created to ensure that there's room for women of color in legal marijuana, which is arguably the country's fastest growing industry. Supernova began last year after Parks met a dispensary executive named Amber Senter at an industry conference in San Francisco. "I was looking around the room, and it was all just imported white men in suits," Parks, 32, said. "Amber was the only other person of color in the room. She was over there rolling up some weed, and I'm like, 'Yo, me too!'" Senter had recently moved to Oakland to access medical marijuana for her lupus; she'd spent years growing her own in Georgia, and after moving to the Bay Area, she took a position as chief operating officer of Magnolia, an Oakland dispensary. The two quickly bonded, and a few months later they sat down at a kitchen table with a lawyer friend to found Supernova, which now offers cannabis business workshops and advocates for policies supporting minorities, women, and ex-offenders.
The most glaring irony of legalization is that for decades black and Latino communities have disproportionately suffered under harsh drug laws, and now, with those laws in retreat, the entrepreneurs cashing in on the booming business are overwhelmingly white. California, like the four states that had previously legalized recreational pot, imposes restrictions on convicted felons joining the industry; some states also require business-license applicants to demonstrate cash reserves of hundreds of thousands of dollars or more. Both criteria weigh heavily against minority entrepreneurs seeking to enter the industry.
To insiders, Oakland is both a spiritual home to the cannabis movement and an obvious hub for commercial pot in California, halfway between the northern growing regions and the immense Los Angeles market. The push for legalization, which has a strong history here, is a cause as well as a business, and within the cannabis world, the most outspoken voices are both activists and entrepreneurs. Perhaps no one embodies both roles more fully than Steve DeAngelo, who's often credited as the father of the modern marijuana industry. DeAngelo is the co-founder and head of Harborside Health Center, considered by some to be the nation's largest dispensary, and he's an articulate spokesman for how cannabis can be "a new kind of industry," one that embraces diversity, environmentalism, and living wages. Inevitably, as one of the representatives of big business in the city, he also attracts criticism from smaller players.
The industry's upper ranks are more clean-cut than you might think, but DeAngelo, who's jowly and almost 60, with a rumbling chuckle, has a plug in his left ear and wears his hair in two long gray braids beneath a fedora. Every day, he ingests hundreds of milligrams of THC, enough to debilitate many seasoned cannabis users, but DeAngelo manages to be an astute, and sometimes sharp-elbowed, operator. We spoke in a packed café during a cannabis conference as his assistant fetched him coffee.
But Oakland has also been a violent theater in the drug war. In The New Jim Crow, the scholar Michelle Alexander writes of a 1989 Oakland police unit that one officer said operated like a "wolfpack," bringing in "anything and everything we saw on the street corner." In the early 2000s, black drivers in Oakland were twice as likely to be pulled over and three times as likely to be searched as whites. Oakland's police department has been under federal oversight since 2003, following a legal settlement in which 119 plaintiffs were awarded $11 million after suing the city for police misconduct. Oakland's population is about a quarter African American, but in 2011, African Americans accounted for three-quarters of the marijuana arrests in the city.
By phone, Brooks told me that she is fighting for the Oaklanders she represents, even if some of her ideas are contrary to mainstream economic thinking. "If it ruffles some people's feathers, I'm OK," she said. She believes the equity businesses will generate jobs and taxes to replace whatever companies leave. "The notion that there are no people of color who have money and are interested in investing in this is foolish," she said.
As Oakland struggles to develop its policy, the industry is racing ahead in Colorado, where recreational dispensaries have been open for almost three years. In this short time, Colorado's biggest companies have started to look like chain pharmacies. In May, The Denver Post reported that five white men control 134 business licenses in Denver, about 13 percent of the total, and as companies expand to new states, further consolidation is likely. The differences between the Denver and Oakland models are clear from how their businesses do community outreach. The dispensary closest to my home in Denver sponsors highway cleanups and a charity golf tournament. Oakland's Magnolia, where Supernova's Amber Senter works, is a community center offering blood pressure tests, cannabis cooking classes, and support groups for veterans. It sends care packages to more than a dozen marijuana offenders serving life sentences.
Though Oakland hopes to set the tone for the national cannabis industry, more immediately, the city's government and residents need the money the industry could generate. The working-class port city with a large black population has been deluged by yuppie refugees and techies priced out of San Francisco. The gentrification and climbing rent have provoked resentment: Oakland has one of the highest costs of living in the U.S. alongside neighborhoods where unemployment is two to three times the national rate. A cannabis industry in Oakland, many think, could be a counterweight to the forces remaking the city.
As legalization has spread, other jurisdictions have recognized the moral urgency of creating diversity in the industry. So far, none has succeeded. This past summer, Maryland issued its first 30 medical marijuana business licenses, but the process was thrown into disarray once it became clear that none had gone to a woman or an African American. It's a "very complex problem," the head of Maryland's cannabis commission told The Baltimore Sun. Time sensitive, too, since the established companies are getting bigger and richer. Ohio's medical marijuana law reserves 15 percent of business licenses for minority owners, but this aspect of the law immediately came under legal scrutiny and the program has yet to become operational.
Oakland's civic leaders place a great deal of emphasis on what Brooks called the city's "secret sauce," the notion that impossible things can happen in this unusually progressive city. But for an equitable policy to compete with proven corporate practices, it has to be able to take root everywhere, not just in one city. It has to scale.
California's new recreational marijuana law, like those in other states, has been criticized for handing over a once-in-a-generation economic opportunity to the already rich. Cottage licenses could allow mom-and-pop marijuana businesses to generate wealth as well. Writ large, this is a response to one of the country's most intractable economic problems: the lack of a pathway into the middle class for the tens of millions of Americans without college degrees. Crucially, cottage licenses could enable greater diversity of business ownership while avoiding the rancor and legal battles that make laws that address race specifically so difficult to create and maintain.
In late September, commercial home growing received a huge endorsement when California Governor Jerry Brown signed a law creating cottage licenses for 500 square feet of indoor space (and somewhat larger outdoor grows). California cities now have to decide if they'll participate. In Colorado, by contrast, there's no allowance for cottage licenses, and new commercial grows are generally measured in tens of thousands of square feet.
Supernova's Nina Parks said cottage licenses would encourage people who might not thrive in a traditional work environment, like some veterans and the disabled. "I don't want to work for a big corporation, making money on their time and having to apply for when they're going to tell me I can take my vacation or take my lunch break," she said. "That doesn't sound appealing to me at all." Mirage Medicinal gives her the flexibility of running her own business. Or partially her own: Her brother was released from Rikers late last spring and is back in the Bay Area. "Actually, he's the one answering the phones right now," she told me, laughing.

Benny Goodman (May 30, 1909 – June 13, 1986) was an American jazz clarinetist and bandleader known as the "King of Swing".
In the mid-1930s, Goodman led one of the most popular musical groups in the United States. His concert at Carnegie Hall in New York City on January 16, 1938 is described by critic Bruce Eder as "the single most important jazz or popular music concert in history: jazz's 'coming out' party to the world of 'respectable' music."
Goodman's bands started the careers of many jazz musicians. During an era of racial segregation, he led one of the first integrated jazz groups.
He learned quickly, becoming a strong player at an early age, and soon playing in bands. He made his professional debut in 1921 at the Central Park Theater on the West Side of Chicago. He entered Harrison Technical High School in Chicago in 1922. At fourteen he became a member of the musicians' union and worked in a band featuring Bix Beiderbecke. Two years later he joined the Ben Pollack Orchestra and made his first recordings in 1926.
Goodman moved to New York City and became a session musician for radio, Broadway musicals, and in studios. In addition to clarinet, he sometimes played alto saxophone and baritone saxophone. In a Victor recording session on March 21, 1928, he played alongside Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, and Joe Venuti in the All-Star Orchestra directed by Nathaniel Shilkret. He played with the bands of Red Nichols, Ben Selvin, Ted Lewis, and Isham Jones and recorded for Brunswick under the name Benny Goodman's Boys, a band that featured Glenn Miller. In 1928, Goodman and Miller wrote "Room 1411", which was released as a Brunswick 78.
He reached the charts for the first time when he recorded "He's Not Worth Your Tears" with a vocal by Scrappy Lambert for Melotone. After signing with Columbia in 1934, he had top ten hits with "Ain't Cha Glad?" and "I Ain't Lazy, I'm Just Dreamin'" sung by Jack Teagarden, "Ol' Pappy" sung by Mildred Bailey, and "Riffin' the Scotch" sung by Billie Holiday. An invitation to play at the Billy Rose Music Hall led to his creation of an orchestra for the four-month engagement. The orchestra recorded "Moonglow", which became a number one hit and was followed by the Top Ten hits "Take My Word" and "Bugle Call Rag".

The initiative is led by Louisville's Mayor Greg Fischer and his Office for Safe and Healthy Neighborhoods (OSHN). The Center for Disease Control's Public Health Approach to youth violence is utilized and the goals focus on increasing positive outcomes and coordinating efforts in five systemic areas.
One Love Louisville — Youth Edition serves as an addition to the strategic plan currently in progress and focuses on increasing positive outcomes for youth (0 to 24 years of age) who reside in Louisville Metro Police Department divisions 1, 2, and 4.
A city of safe neighborhoods where all citizens feel secure, supported, and prepared for lifelong success.
Emphasis on Effectiveness and Efficiency: We can reduce violence by increasing and systematizing coordination and collaboration by forging new partnerships and combining resources.
Results Orientation: We commit to common results and indicators for the city as a whole, and the development of a schedule and method to track progress.
Target Resources: Resources will be found to fund OSHN projects and they will be directed to areas most affected by violence.
Representation: Everyone will have a role and a voice—increase resident and neighborhood engagement and build positive connections.
Engage Leadership: Champions from all of Louisville's communities will be called to participate, influence, and impact the work.
Balance: We utilize an approach that balances personal accountability and mutual assistance in the following relationships: neighbor-to-neighbor, parent-to-child, government-to-resident, youth-to-community, and community- and faith-based-organization-to-member.
One Love Louisville — Youth Edition highlights five goals that target three police divisions in Louisville: Divisions 1, 2, and 4. The OSHN's approach to preventing youth violence is not separate to the approach for preventing overall community violence.
Under the leadership of Mayor Greg Fischer and Chief of Community Building, the OSHN and the One Love Louisville Youth Implementation Team lead this effort by leveraging its convening power, dedicated staff and resources. The OSHN is currently staffed, full-time with a Director and Program Coordinator and has two unpaid internship opportunities.
The OSHN's Director works to: bridge the work of violence prevention and response across 37 Metro departments and affiliated agencies; convenes the Advisory Committee; oversees the development of baselines; identifies gaps (and redundancies) in services; identifies best practices; cultivates key partnerships; identifies community and youth leaders; and oversees the communication strategy to accompany its release.
The responsibilities of the Program Coordinator consists of researching strategies and programs; conducting staff and community trainings; tracking reports; overseeing communications (on-line and written); facilitating community and governance structure meetings; and developing and maintaining a data collection system to monitor, evaluate, and report goal and objective progress.


While Janhvi Kapoor's Bollywood debut Dhadak was raking in over 100 crores worldwide, the other thing that was making headlines about the actor was her flawless skin. On the day of the Vogue Beauty Awards 2018, we trailed our July 2018 cover star as she got ready for her first solo award show appearance, and got her to share a few of her skin and haircare secrets along the way. From Sridevi's skincare rituals that the mother passed on to her daughters, to the home remedy where she draws the line, read below for a peek into Janhvi Kapoor's beauty diary.
"I put a lot of food in my hair—eggs, beer, and methi," she says. "Some people also go with onion juice but methi is where I draw the line." Clearly, onion juice is a popular ingredient with Bollywood parents; remember when Twinkle Khanna told us about her experience with the ingredient she used back in the day?
Most Indian mothers and grandmothers will vouch for the efficacy of a nice head massage, and the tradition is a childhood memory most of us carry, including the Kapoor sisters. "[Mom] would make our hair oil at home with dried flowers and amla, and she'd make sure she gave me and Khushi an oil massage every three days," she says about the haircare routine the late Sridevi had created for them.
"Whatever leftover [fruit] we had from breakfast, we'd put on our face," she said of the skincare steps she and her sister Khushi Kapoor share. Think mushed strawberries loaded with their antioxidants and moisturising properties. No wonder she's always got that radiant glow, whether she's stepping out post a gym session, or an indulgent brunch.
