Occupational Skills Training For Young Adults in Kansas
At The Crossroads (ATC) is an employment training program for both men and women, ages 18-26. ATC's complete, in-depth occupational skills training program prepares young men and women from Kansas to make important life decisions that are proactive and potent. We know from experience that when this occurs, the resident will then advance into adulthood with extremely solid groundwork and focused purpose. The students will live in an organized, therapeutic atmosphere that is deliberate for vocational training and internship. The model here at ATC combines clinical treatment, vocational preparation, emotional growth, recovery, and life skills development. The staff here At The Crossroads does these clinical models in a sympathetic and compassionate environment that encourages self-discovery and independence.
One thing that any parent from Kansas should know is that ATC's occupational skills training takes place in a tenable home located in beautiful St. George, Utah. While your loved one is here, he or she can attend the local college, acquire a job, and ultimately learn to take care of themselves and their personal necessities as any stable, successful adult would. Here at ATC, we offer the foremost employment training programs for struggling young adults from Kansas. Direction from our professionally trained educators, substance abuse treatment counselors, life coaches, and licensed therapists, our students will gain the practical life skills necessary to succeed.

Vocation Training For Young Adults from Kansas
Parents of young men and women that are in need of "hands-on" work training should know that ATC has a branded therapy organization called the "Pathways model." The Pathways model, here At The Crossroads, is a young adult internship program based on peer support and professional life coaching. ATC's vocation skills training program is an "experiential" process where the intern is dedicated to serving not only his or her interest, but the best interest of their peers as well. Your loved one will learn to take personal responsibility for the choices they make, and our staff will take part in holding them accountable as well. As you will see, the transformation of your loved one will be nothing less than miraculous.
Internship Programs For Young Adults From Kansas
At The Crossroads, we know that our students must have confidence restored. We have seen that in order for struggling young men and women from Kansas to emerge from their present existence, they must be empowered and built up. One of the primary objectives of our staff is to instill a feeling within our residents that they "have what it takes." At the same time, in order for struggling young adults to actually succeed on a more permanent level, the student must do the work for themselves. This understanding of what causes young adults to experience "failure to launch" is what sets ATC apart from other internship programs and employment training for young adults.
A core element of our "Pathways" curriculum requires a commitment of t least nine months in order to fully complete. A primary Life Coach/Mentor will be assigned to each student upon enrolling in the ATC program. This professional will be responsible for the monitoring each resident as the student progresses through the pathways program. The Program Director of ATC will serve as a liaison between the student's families and the staff members. The director will provide residents with suitable opportunities for the development of their training, their daily living skills, their personal growth, and overall success in the ATC program.
What ATC's Occupational Skills Program Entails For Young Adults from Kansas
These opportunities for the development include expert assistance in resume development, mock interviews and feedback from local business leaders, staff monitoring of job performance, personal financial training, and an understanding of how to build/improve their individual credit.
Below is a list of the frequent diagnoses that we specialize in here At The Crossroads. If you see that your loved one suffers from one or more of the following, you should consider calling one of our family advocates right away:
Alcohol Use Disorder
Cannabis Use Disorder
To reach the family advocates of At The Crossroads, please call (866) 439-0354.
Some parental advice for understanding your young adult child..
Your teen may wonder "how will I know I'm ready for sex"? But there is no rush. Remind your teen that it's OK to wait. Sexual activity is for mature individuals. In the meantime, there are many other ways to express affection, such as intimate talks, touching, hugging, listening to music, long walks, holding hands, dancing and kissing.
Obviously, it's ideal if both parents can have dinner with their kids every night. But we don't live in an ideal world, and none of us is an ideal parent. So we do what we can, which can often mean one parent holding down the fort at many weeknight dinners. That gives Friday, Saturday and Sunday a party atmosphere as everyone sits down to enjoy the meal together.

Credit Suisse Case May Be Easier for U.S. after UBS Negotiations Paved the Way
By Brian Monroe
After over a year of negotiations with UBS AG, U.S. officials will have more leverage to reach a settlement with another Swiss bank that may have helped American citizens hide taxable assets.
On Thursday, the U.S. Justice Department informed Credit Suisse Group AG that it was the subject of a probe related to its American accountholders. The investigation had been rumored since February, when federal prosecutors indicted four former bankers they said had helped Credit Suisse's clients avoid paying taxes on some $3 billion in assets.
The probe into Switzerland's second largest bank follows the $780 million penalty paid in 2009 by Switzerland's largest, UBS AG, for allegedly helping wealthy Americans hide billions of dollars in taxable assets. The bank and Swiss authorities turned over data on nearly 5,000 U.S. clients after a prolonged legal battle over the country's stringent bank secrecy laws.
Since the UBS AG deal, the legal arrangement between the United States and Switzerland "is a bit changed," said Rebeca Garcia, a spokeswoman for the Swiss Bankers Association. Revisions to the nations' tax treaty would make a deal over how to handle Credit Suisse's alleged violations "easier to work out this time around," she said.
An amended tax treaty signed in September 2009 required Switzerland to stop distinguishing between tax fraud—a crime—and using Swiss banks to evade paying taxes to other countries. Previously, Swiss authorities could only share bank data with foreign countries when their governments could show possible criminal abuse in specific accounts.
As part of the updated tax agreement, Switzerland became a party to Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Article 26, which calls on countries to exchange information that is "foreseeably relevant to the administration or enforcement of domestic laws concerning tax of every kind and description."
A ruling Friday by the Swiss Federal Supreme Court that found that Switzerland's release of the UBS client data to the United States was "justified" has also improved the chances that a similar agreement will be reached more easily this time, said Dennis Brager, founder of the Los Angeles-based Brager Tax Law Group.
The Swiss court stated that the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority's decision to release the data legally trumped bank secrecy concerns because to do otherwise would've exposed UBS to criminal charges that could have "seriously jeopardi[z]ed the bank's liquidity and thus its existence" as well as the larger Swiss banking industry.
The ruling is "fascinating" because it implies that some legal concerns can overrule data and privacy protections in Switzerland, giving the United States and other countries greater legal standing in pursuing cases against Swiss financial institutions, he said.
The Justice Department's decision to formally notify Credit Suisse of the investigation comes as the United States has backed out of talks with Switzerland over how to address allegations that some Swiss banks have knowingly facilitated tax evasion, SonntagsZeitung reported Sunday, according to a story by Reuters.
Both governments had been negotiating a deal in which the United States would have dropped its cases against the banks if they paid a fine, ended their offshore banking services and turned over data on their U.S. clients to the Internal Revenue Service, Reuters said, citing anonymous sources.
U.S. officials and individuals familiar with the matter have acknowledged similar investigations of London-based HSBC Holdings Plc and Zurich-based Julius Baer Group. Citing anonymous sources, The New York Times said in December that the Justice Department had launched a formal investigation of Basel-based Basler Kantonalbank.
With the Credit Suisse case, U.S. officials may be ratcheting up pressure on Switzerland to win larger concessions from the country, said Brager.
"I don't think the Swiss government is ready for another prolonged battle," said David Spencer, a NY-based independent tax attorney. "It can see the writing is on the wall."
But how strong of a case the Justice Department has against Credit Suisse is unclear. In their charges against the former bank officials, who have not been arrested, U.S. prosecutors said the individuals helped their American clients to structure withdrawals to avoid reporting requirements and advised them to ignore a U.S. amnesty program for tax evaders.
While those allegations are "pretty serious," the degree to which the bank is legally exposed will depend on whether the incidents were isolated or symptomatic of broader problems, said Scott Michel, an attorney with Caplin & Drysdale in Washington, D.C.
Calls to spokespersons in the Justice Department and Credit Suisse were not returned.
"Dennis, Meredith, and staff… As I reflect upon this year, there are a few individuals who have made my life much better. I appreciate and feel blessed for all the effort made on my behalf. Thank you very much…" KB
"Thank you for your good work in resolving my innocent spouse case. I will be forever grateful!" KB
"It is a pleasure to send you this check...knowing I have friends like you who are there to help!" HB
"Words can not express my appreciation. YOU DID IT!!!! I have dealt with and paid multiple people to resolve my tax problems, however you were the only one who was successful..." CB
"Your assistance is greatly appreciated and beyond the call of the average attorney who would not take the time. I will consult with you and refer whomever I can to you, whenever possible." EK

Amazon India Will Soon Deliver Groceries at Your Doorstep
Amazon has expressed its interests in hyperlocal delivery sector in India, a market currently dominated by local deliveries and small start-ups. The ecommerce giant is expecting to launch the grocery services in April and to speak of, this move is strategical to the core. Amazon wants to take advantage of the void left behind by hyperlocal delivery start-ups like Grofers and PepperTap which have recently shut down its operations in many cities and have also sort of halted the expansion plans.
Amazon is currently the largest online retailer in India and its foray in the local grocery segment will definitely make a huge impact. The company is rapidly pushing its initiative and in fact it has also launched the pilot for Kirana Now, an online grocery store for the masses. Amazon is setting up its own logistics and it seems that they have already hired quiet a good number of delivery personnel for the same purpose.
As we mentioned earlier, Amazon will be piloting the project in Bengaluru and post which the initiative will be expanded up to 10 cities within this year. Amazon will piggyback on its existing logistics setup and is most likely to spin off a dedicated unit for the hyperlocal deliveries. The company promises to deliver within two hours of receiving the order.
This move will not be affecting the traditional Kirana stores adversely, and in fact it will help them create a positive surge in sales thanks to Amazon's delivery chain. The company will join hands with both the local retailers and also the modern retailers for fulfilling the orders.
Amazon's latest initiative might lend a fresh blow to the already wimping Hyperlocal startups like Grofers and Peppertap. As we are familiar, Amazon sits on a huge war chest and it has enough resources to burn and bleed unlike the other startups who need to streamline their operations in order to bring about the optimum revenue. Hyperlocal deliveries suffer from the bane of thin profits, low commission rate and the salaries it has to pay its logistics, an equation that usually ends up in minus. Adding to this is the sky high cost of customer acquisition and the need to ramp up fast enough.
That being said, even the biggies have struggled to make a dent in the hyperlocal, take for instance Flipkart which started an app called Nearby in Bengaluru, has failed to gain traction. By the way the app helped you order groceries, electronics, clother and other things. Paytm has also shut down its operations pointing fingers at the poor demand.
It is interesting to see how the game shapes up and whether it will come to a level wherein the company that bleeds the most will lead. On the contrary, although Amazon has deep pockets it would still be quiet a herculean task to crack the grocery market, however by treading cautiously and by strategizing the moves, Amazon maybe able to gain an upper hand in the hyperlocal market.

SoftBank Pours $215 Million Investment in Gamified E-Learning Ed-Tech Platform Kahoot
Oct 14 2020 · 10:03 UTC by Bhushan Akolkar · 3 min read

SoftBank acquired nearly 10% in the Norweigen ed-tech startup Kahoot that offers a gamified e-learning experience to users. The platform has seen massive growth in 2020 and plans to go public by the next year.
With the coronavirus pandemic shutting schools and colleges across the world e-learning ed-tech platforms have gained huge momentum. On Tuesday, October 13, SoftBank made a $215 fresh investment in Oslo-based education startup Kahoot.
Reportedly, SoftBank acquired a 9.7% stake in the company by buying 43 million news shares at $5 per share. Kahoot said that it will deploy these funds in upgrading the virtual learning experience on its platform. Besides, the funds from Softbank will also help Kahoot to fuel growth via joint ventures, acquisitions, and partnerships. In its official statement, the startup also stated:
"Kahoot! is experiencing strong momentum and accelerated adoption as enterprises increasingly seek engaging, trustworthy and user-friendly ways to build corporate culture, educate and interact".
Founded in 2012, Kahoot is a gamified e-learning platform that allows players to create and participate in multiple-choice quizzes. Over the last 12 months, Kahoot has clocked over 1.3 billion "participating players" worldwide.
One part of Kahoot's business focuses on home learnings and schools while the other part focuses on corporate clients for training sessions and presentations. Speaking to CNBC, Kahoot CEO Eilert Hanoa said:
"It's all about the general switch in mindset from digital tools being a nice-to-have additional set of features in schools and classrooms, to being maybe the most important toolkit they can use to create engagement".
Ed-Tech Startups Gaining Huge Traction
EdTech or Educational Technology has been growing over the last few years as demand for virtual e-learning platforms rises. The Coronavirus pandemic further fueled the growth with schools and colleges turning online. Thus, the industry is also getting huge attention from big players in the market.
Kahoot has been on a roll this year. This is the second-big fundraise in months after securing $28 million earlier in June 2020. Since the beginning of 2020, Kahoot's share price has also appreciated by a whopping 150%. The CEO said that the company is planning for a full public listing on the Norwegian stock market in 2021. He told CNBC:
"We've already accumulated approximately 8,000 new shareholders. We believe that, by doing a re-IPO on the main list on the Oslo Stock Exchange, we could extend the investor base even further."
Well, this investment can also be a good hedge for SoftBank after its failed investments in Uber and WeWork. The coronavirus pandemic made things worst for the two unicorn startups. On the other hand, SoftBank has also been on the move for consolidating its investment portfolio in the market. Last month, SoftBank sold its stake in British semi-conductor giant Arm Holdings, to Nvidia in a deal worth $40 billion.

Rhubarb & Custard Hard Boiled Sweets.
Whoever thought to take one of life's great desserts and turn it into a sweet deserves a knighthood or a country named after them. These boiled-sweets, made the old-fashioned way capture the essence of both tangy rhubarb and sweet, creamy custard.


Artist Statement My earliest memories involve cameras. My grandfather developed the first roll of microfilm and worked for Recordak (Kodak) when it was founded in New York. I believe every room of their house had a camera in it. As kids, my sisters and I were encouraged to be creative, and that has always been a large influence in my life. I started down my "photographers" path in my teens but was sidetracked by college. I have recently found my path again and feel somewhat like Alice through the looking glass, only my journey is through the lens of a camera. I am lucky enough to have found peace within myself and encouragement from family and friends. My grandfather always said that everything is temporary. While that may be true for life's moments; he forgot that an image of that moment can last forever.

Digital Marketing / 4 minute read
How we use data to create campaigns that wow!
Written by Lydia Chenhall
At DRPG, it's creativity that sets us apart. Our world-leading creative solutions deliver results for our clients, but that's not down to innovation alone. It's not based on 'gut feeling' or guesswork. The key to our very best work? Data.
According to a recent study from Forrester Consulting, it's that combination of data and creativity that will now set leaders apart from laggards. In fact, it's creativity that allows us to respond so quickly to the changing world around us. McKinsey note that creative companies make choices faster – 74% of the most creative businesses it surveyed were used to making fast decisions – and when those decisions are based on solid research, they can deliver incredible results.
Having a good view of all necessary data and a comprehensive research process makes that simpler. That's precisely why 61% of high-performing marketers develop a single view of their customer by unifying data across many touchpoints. With in-depth research, we get to know our audience. With the insights we can draw from that research, we notice opportunities. Those opportunities then make up our strategy.
As Carly Fiorina, former CEO of Hewlett Packard, notes: "The goal is to turn data into information and information into insight." How have we used that insight at DRPG? Let's take a look…
Internal comms at ITV Good data isn't only useful when looking outward. Hoping to make internal branding match shiny, new external branding, ITV first undertook some in-depth research with us, drawing on the knowledge and insight of its own colleagues.
We dove in, gathering input and feedback in a series of focus groups and drop-in sessions. With all that valuable information, ITV was able to get a real picture of what people within the organisation wanted to see and could form a strategy based on real data and, vitally, real opinion. That meant it included an accurate representation of everyone at ITV, not just those in the team creating the comms strategy.
Now comms is much more effective as the entire team have come to understand the value of two-way communication – that's the power of good research.
Social media campaign with Oakwrights. Nowhere is useful data more effective than in developing social media strategies. Luckily, it is also relatively straightforward to gather data about users' online habits and brand interactions in the social space. Oakwrights wanted to increase those interactions, growing traffic, increasing conversations with online customers and inciting more action, such as brochure downloads or likes and shares on social platforms.
To deliver just those results, we first got stuck into the numbers. After assessing their offering, and finding a few new opportunities in the insights, we developed them further, using Brandwatch surveys and our own mystery customer enquiries to uncover a need for more touchpoints. Then we built the strategy around that. Enquiry rates from social increased, link clicks soared, and social interaction continues to climb. Without that all important research, this campaign might never have landed on the direction that proved so effective.
Lead generation for SCC. As an IT and technology provider that works on a truly global scale, data was vital to understanding SCC. When we started working together, the company was struggling with visibility and often found it just wasn't seen by decision makers who might choose SCC as a partner. To find out why, we looked into perception data. How was it performing in online polls? What discussions were happening about SCC online? But we didn't stick to data about SCC. Our dedicated Research & Insights team investigated competitors too and that allowed us to build a comprehensive gap analysis detailing where new opportunities lay.
Our strategy was borne out of that research process. SCC was, as a result, able to align its sales practices and lead generation strategy with the wants and needs of the public sector clients that it had wished to target. All because we were able to pinpoint those precise wants and needs.
Digital marketing at BT Barefoot. Though BT Barefoot is an established part of BT's corporate social responsibility strategy to help teach children about IT, it needed a new strategy to help create buzz and raise awareness of the programme. To understand its existing visibility and where to best promote the brand, research was vital.
Using all available data, our team built a clear picture of the brand's target audience and the type of content that specific group of people were most likely to not just click on, but really engage with. That insight then shaped the entire social media campaign, dictating the content we needed to create and where it should be launched. Astute use of data, in this case, led to increased awareness (as desired) and massively increased engagement between the target audience and the Barefoot team. Targeting as narrowly as possible really does work, and it is research that allows us to get there.
It's been said time and time again that we are now part of a data culture. While that remains true – data sharing, capturing and analysis are all a bigger part of our professional and personal lives than ever before – building a true data culture within your organisation requires work. It won't happen without a push.
Here at DRPG, we've already done that work. Our dedicated Research & Insights team exists to dig into that all-important data and ensure it's not siloed in our organisation. That means we can work across teams, while keeping your data at the centre of everything we produce.
Come and chat to us about all things data and discover how our experienced research team could bring some insight to your next project. Just drop us a message at anythingspossible@drpgroup.com to get started.

HEAD COACH PROFILE: KELLY GRIFFIN
If you want to put into perspective where Premier Rugby 7s fits on the historical timeline of progress for women's rugby, all you have to do is look at how far the game has come through the lens of Kelly Griffin's career. Coaching the Loonies to the PR7s Inaugural Championship in Memphis last October, the Olympian claimed the first-ever title in the world's first-ever professional 7s league and North America's first-ever pro rugby competition of any kind for women.
For the 35-year-old, those are just her latest firsts. She was also one of eight women to earn USA Rugby's first full-time contracts in 2012, she played on the first-ever Women's Sevens World Series the following year, as well as in sevens' Olympic debut in Rio 2016. She also won the first-ever title of the Women's Premier League, the top competition of 15s rugby in America, with the Berkeley All Blues in 2009.
Before Griffin, women weren't paid to play rugby, only men's national teams had an annual worldwide tour, no gold medals were on offer, and there wasn't even a national women's competition in America. Griffin didn't just watch as those gainlines were crossed, she literally carried the ball.
"'Oh, did you always dream of playing rugby in the Olympics?'" Griffin says people ask. "I'm like, rugby wasn't even in the Olympics until I'd been playing for five years.
"To be honest, I just feel like it's a story of women's rugby in America, where I've been fortunate to be in the right place at the right time for these opportunities. There are plenty of women who are even more or equally qualified who didn't have these opportunities."
A basketball player in high school, Griffin was introduced to rugby as an underclassman at UCLA in 2004. Even though the men's game had professionalized nearly a decade earlier on the heels of the 1995 Rugby World Cup, when Griffin started playing, the women's game the world over was still entirely amateur.
Then came the announcement in 2009 from the International Olympic Committee that rugby would join the Olympic program seven years later in Brazil. That announcement changed everything for the sport, especially women. Griffin, who was at an age-grade national team camp at the time, remembers the day well.
"I remember we had cell phones, but they weren't smartphones. They were like, 'don't have your phones on you. Don't let people text you. We're going to announce it all as a team, and keep all of our phones away so we all find out at the same time if we got in or not,'" she recalled. "That makes me feel really old."
Despite the fact that sevens was going in the Olympics, and she was literally in the process of trying to make the U.S. National Team, which claimed bronze at the Sevens World Cup that same year, young Griffin didn't picture herself waving to the world at the opening ceremony, even though that's exactly what she'd do.
"I did terribly at that camp. I did not get selected for the team at that camp. It was not a great showing on my part," she recalled.
"At that time it was like something where I was like, oh man, playing in the Olympics would be so cool, but the path wasn't clear. I'd gone to these junior national camps, but there were so many people there that were all so talented. I did it because it was fun and I loved it."
Shortly after that assembly, Ric Suggitt took over as the USA's head coach. His first camp was a large one in Las Vegas at the USA 7s, designed to get a look at the larger playing pool. Griffin made her national team debut there, even if unofficially.
"It didn't count as a cap because at that time there weren't sanctioned tournaments for women where you could get caps, which was lame," Griffin said.
She would have to wait almost two more years before the national team called again, inviting her to a camp leading into Dubai.
"I made that team, and at that time there was this rumor going around that there's going to be eight professional women's contracts. And I didn't really pay attention to it, to be honest, because I was like there's no way I'm going to get one of those," recalled Griffin.
"And then we go to Dubai, and in the airport going home Ric is like, 'I'm going to offer you one of those contracts, do you think you can move to Chula Vista in three weeks?' I was like, what? And then I did."
If a young Griffin were coming along today, she wouldn't have to sit by the phone for two years between twice-a-week training sessions. She could play in PR7s against the Olympians in an effort to become one.
"Now there's this whole other opportunity to play at a high level, to be in a professional environment, and develop your skills and have an opportunity to get seen by higher level national team staff," Griffin said.
"When I was playing, it was all pay to play. For the WPL now, it still is pay-to-play. So to be able to have that professional environment, even if it's just for those three weeks, is a huge game changer, because you would only get that if you got invited to one of those USA camps, and even those you had to pay for.
"So just to have an opportunity to push ourselves against other top-level athletes, to be in a professional environment and understand the demand and what that is, and also the higher pressure environments. There's internal pressure, but you weren't necessarily playing games in front of crowds and learning how that works and understanding how that changes things I think is the most exciting for the next generation."
Though there's little doubt Griffin could have laced up the boots and taken the field as a star player last October, she's blazing trails from the sidelines now. If bagging the world's first-ever women's pro sevens title is any indication, she'll achieve just as much as a coach as she did on the field.
Avoiding a sophomore slump won't be a simple copy-and-paste job for Griffin and the Loonies, though, as PR7s' expansion to a three-tournament series, among other significant changes to the competition, has made the mountain harder to climb.
"Especially in that short time period, we were like, we're not going to improve your passing. We're not going to teach you how to tackle," said Griffin of her approach at the Inaugural Championship. "You all have these basic skills. Most important is getting you guys to play as a cohesive unit. For us that's building some baseline trust, some baseline communication where you know how to talk to each other on the field that's going to get the results we want."
The Loonies' commitment to team-centered communication extended well beyond the pitch. Named after the loon, a bird native to Canada, Alaska and the northern reaches of the continent, the Loonies, led by Alaskan native and Team USA superstar Alev Kelter, learned to contort their hands into just the right shape and force air through their pursed lips just well enough to make a loon call.
The team's connection to both one another and their beloved bird lives on in the team WhatsApp. "Anytime anyone sees a Loon out in the wild, that gets sent and there's some chatter," joked Griffin.
"It is exciting to have more tournaments and more time together as a team so we can build more, implement more. I think we created a really good foundation of team culture and now with more time and the basis create more of a team presence on the field as well. And with a bigger team of 18, it will be a new challenge to figure out what combination of people will be best for each event, too. And then there's the draft!"

I rarely buy Lush soaps, it's not because I dislike them I just simply prefer using the bubble bars and bath bombs. When I however set eyes on the Tunnel of Love Soap it was love at first sight. Above is a photograph of a slice of the soap and below is a photograph of it pre cut. The below image is how they arrive in to store, it is then up to the store staff to cut it into smaller pieces, ready to sell.
The soap in all of its glory is truly beautiful, I couldn't stop staring at it when I was by the soap counter in Lush Oxford Street. In all honesty I feel for the store staff, I would feel like the worst person on the planet if I was asked to chop up this huge lump of soap. It's not just a sight for sore eyes, it's a work of art!
The Tunnel of Love Soap has a long list of natural ingredients that reflect the Valentine's period perfectly. It contains both sweet wild orange and lime oil making it have an almost identical scent to the Lush Winter bath bomb, Never Mind the Ballistics. The addition of rose water in it is what gives the Tunnel of Love it's valentine's twist.
Its scent is bright and sweet, the orange oil is the most dominant ingredient recognised by my nose, the rose water is next and it rounds the citrus-sweetness of the orange oil off perfectly, giving the Tunnel of Love a more subtle, citrus-scent which is why I feel I like it so very much.
There aren't many Lush soaps that lather up as quickly as the Tunnel of Love soap, it is one of the best Valentine's soaps I have used to date, leaving the likes of Roses All the Way and Love You, Love You Lots soap in the shadows. I like all of the Valentine's Day soaps from the past but there's just something a little bit more special about the Tunnel of Love soap. It's so much more creamier than any other floral soap I have used before now.
Its scent although subtle, stays on your skin a good few hours after using it. Although in lather it is quite a creamy soap, it doesn't leave your skin as soft and hydrated as the naked shower cream from this year (Tender is the Night) does. I however wouldn't expect this to be the case as it's rare for a soap to not dry my skin out a little. Out of all of the Valentine's soaps I have used so far, Tunnel of Love is undeniably the best yet. I'd definitely recommend grabbing a bar before Valentine's day 2018 has been and gone.
For Valentine's 2018 Lush have revamped an old favourite, the Tisty Tosty Bath Bomb. Instead of being all white, it is now half white and half hot-pink. Visually, it is a huge improvement (in my opinion anyway…) if in doubt, just add some pink and voila!
The standard white version of the Tisty Tosty bath bomb was put into retirement last year to make way for new bath bombs. I was a little sad at its loss as I love the story behind it. Tisty Tosty's ingredients are inspired by a medieval love potion, everything about the Tisty Tosty bath bomb oozes love and romance, it's a Valentine's product through and through.
This version of the Tisty Tosty bath bomb doesn't however have the paper insert that the other versions of it had, this takes away a lot of its charm and history. The paper insert with the previous versions of the Tisty Tosty had a verse on it, it explained how to cast the love spell with the Tisty Tosty being the magic potion.
Seeing as this version didn't have the magic words, I decided to do a 'Little Mermaid' by picking out each rose bud saying, 'he loves me, he loves me not…' which I realise now was a bit pointless as each Tisty Tosty has 7 rose buds in. Spoiler alert, if you want it to end on he/she loves me then make sure you start with 'he/she loves me'. It's foolproof!
Tisty Tosty's scent is all things rose. Sicilian lemon, geranium and jasmine oil are also in the mix adding a layer of musk to its already light and rosy fragrance. I like to pair Tisty Tosty with the Rose Jam shower gel to help carry the rose fragrance that little bit further. Upon hitting the bath water Tisty Tosty begins to hiss, bubbling away while rippling its fragrance through your bathroom. Tisty Tosty is an incredibly fast fizzer. It won't win any prizes for bath art but the quicker the bath bomb dissolves, the quicker you can lie back into its relaxing waters.
I always end up using a product to help with dry skin alongside Tisty Tosty as it is quite a drying bath bomb. There are so many moisturising products you can pair it with. My favourites from this years Valentine's line are the Tender is the Night naked shower cream and the Cherryish body scrub. Appearance wise I think 2018's Tisty Tosty is a sight for sore eyes, it's a great improvement. I however feel the lack of the paper note takes away a huge part of the Tisty Tosty's character making it just another bath bomb.
The Whole Lotta Love Bubbleroon shares its scent with the much loved and recently retired Lush product, the Fizzbanger bath bomb. Every year Lush have to discontinue a certain amount of products to make way for new ones. As sad as it is to see some of your favourite products go, updating the product line with new products to try, keeps things fresh and interesting. When I heard that this new bubble bar shared its scent with Fizzbanger I couldn't wait to buy one.
You wouldn't be frowned upon for mistaking the Whole Lotta Love bubbleroon for a previous Valentine's product. Looks wise it is very similar to another heart shaped bubbleroon called Heart Throb. Looks is however all it has in common, both are surprisingly different, especially when it comes down to scent.
Whole Lotta Love's ingredients and scent is a feast for your nose as well as your skin. It contains bergamot and lemongrass oil as well as jasmine, rose and ylang ylang absolute. Whole Lotta Love's scent is often described by people not so familiar with it as a citrus lemon scent, I can see why people immediately pick up on the lemongrass but if you take a second to really take in its scent you realise there is so much more to it than just lemon. The scents I always pick up from this bubbleroon reminds me of warm apple pie sprinkled with cinnamon sugar.
The Whole Lotta Love bubbleroon consists of 2 heart shaped bubble bars stuck together just like a macaroon, its filling and binding-together-ingredient being yellow shea butter. This is how the bubbleroons got their 'macaroon' inspired names, they work no different from a standard bubble bar, they are just designed with macaroons in mind. The shea butter that sandwiches both of the heart shaped bubble bars together is (once set) decorated with a tiny paint brush like tool with finishing touches of golden lustre.
Copious amounts of bubbles can be made with just 1 half of this bubbleroon. It turns the bath water a beautiful, creamy shade of red, it is a very romantic bath time treat to say the least. Its scent lasts throughout the bath and also stays on your skin for several hours after getting out of the bath too. The shea butter in it also doesn't go unnoticed. It adds a softness to the bath water that leaves your skin refreshed, hydrated and bright. In comparison to the Heart Throb bubbleroon, the Whole Lotta Love blows Heart Throb out of the water, or should I say, bath.
Since the discontinuation of the Fizzbanger bath bomb I know a lot of people have missed it, the Whole Lotta Love bubbleroon has definitely helped with the loss of such a high profile, Lush favourite. After a long hot soak in a Whole Lotta Love bath, I like to carry on its amazing scent by spritzing myself with some Love body spray. Which along with the Fizzbanger bath bomb also shares its heart-warming fragrance. I love that Lush allow us to explore the same scents through different formats of products, I still think that Fizzbanger is my favourite product created in its scent but Whole Lotta Love is a close second!
As soon as the 2018 Lush Valentine products were revealed I knew that the Love Boat Bath Bomb would be the first one I grabbed. As you can see from the above photo this bath bomb is designed in the shape of a dinky-little boat. Designed to be mostly blue and pink, it has blue edges and a blue roof. Staying true to the Valentine's theme, its front is decorated with a bright pink love heart and underneath it, it has a yellow under belly that is decorated with love hearts that are very similar to the mini stars found within the Rocket Science and Golden Wonder bath bombs.
I have actually seen various prototypes of this bath bomb from its creator on Instagram, when you're as obsessed as I am with Lush, seeing their product-thought-processes and their ideas slowly come to life is all a part of the Lush fun. From what I have seen from them, it appears that the Love Boat bath bomb much like the Mum bath bomb could have also been released in several different colours, it however wasn't and although I know most people like a variety of colours, I think Lush made the right choice, the way the pink and blue clash together makes the boat design really stand out, the pink heart on the boats front is what makes it a Love Boat instead of just a bog standard one. I am unsure if another coloured heart would have had the same effect!
Above is a picture of the top and bottom of the Love Boat bath bomb. It shares its scent with the bath bomb I mentioned earlier on in this post, Mum. Containing Sicilian lemon, sweet orange and rose oil its scent is a zesty and floral affair. The Sicilian lemon and sweet orange oil dominate most of the other ingredients in the Love Boat, it does however still have a floral element to it which gives it a soft musky layer. I find its scent uplifting, refreshing and cheery.
Once Love Boat is in the water you are immediately greeted with a burst of colourful foam, blue and pink foam erupts from the Love Boat bath bomb, as does a light streak of yellow foam from its bottom, underwater layer. Although it didn't charge around the bath quite like I had thought it would (with it being a boat) it did float the whole time and the scent stayed throughout the whole of my bath time too.
Once the Love Boat has fully dissolved you are left with soft, frosty pink bath water. The rose oil in it makes it a very soothing experience for Winter frazzled skin. After a good soak in a Love Boat bath I feel revived and refreshed. Although it was the product from the 2018, Valentine's collection that I was most eager to try I didn't expect to like it as much as I did.
Love Boat was most certainly a hit with me, it smells and looks beautiful and it also creates stunning bath art too. I will admit to being disappointed that the Cupid bath bomb didn't make a return this year, Love Boat has however helped ease the disappointment.

'I gave him a date with 70 virgins' — Father who shot Tekoa terrorist speaks out

"Even a chubby high-tech worker becomes something else when he realizes someone is coming to murder his family," says father-of-seven Yair Maimon.
By World Israel News Staff
Yair Maimon, who shot and killed an armed terrorist who infiltrated into the Jewish community of Tekoa in Gush Etzion, spoke to Hebrew language media about the incident that occurred Sunday evening.
Maimon spoke to Mako News about the normal beginning to his night, sitting on his front patio and drinking tea with his wife. "We have seven kids, so this is our quiet time," he said.
Suddenly, they spotted a man scaling a security fence around the perimeter of Tekoa, just meters away from their home.
"There's a lot of adrenaline, and you only have a second to decide what to do," he said. Instinct kicked in, and he ran to grab his M-16 and told his wife to call the local security patrol.
"Even a chubby high-tech worker," he said, referring to himself, "becomes something else when he realizes that someone is coming to murder his family."
Initially, Maimon demanded that the man, who was holding a knife, stop approaching his home.
"The [terrorist] shouted back at me 'quiet!' with a thick Arabic accent, and took another step towards me. So I arranged a date for him with 70 virgins."
In Islamic tradition, a man who dies a martyr for an Islamic cause is said to be rewarded in paradise with 72 virgins. (Never mind that Paradise is a spiritual place and a dead person can not engage in a physical activity [sex with 72 virgins, or a man ascend to the Throne of HaShem ["G-D"] on a winged stead – al-buraq] in a spiritual place.)
While Maimon admitted he was surprised by the infiltration, he conceded that these types of events are part of the fabric of life in Judea and Samaria.
"We live here in a hostile environment, not in Switzerland," he said. "I have been on standby for 13 years… I did military service."
Maimon credited mandatory military service in Israel as a major factor for keeping society safe. Beyond "being teachers, high-tech workers, and lawyers, we are also military personnel, and that is present in all of us," he said.
Maimon's 13-year-old daughter filmed part of the incident, despite her father repeatedly telling her to move back.
"OMG terrorists came next to my house and my father shot one," she wrote as the caption to the video, which she uploaded on social media.
In the video, Maimon can be seen approaching the dead terrorist, who is laying in his front yard, while continuing to aim an M-16 rifle at his body.
"Die!" Maimon's daughter is heard saying in the background, before she begins to shriek and bursts into tears.
The terrorist's three accomplices have not yet been apprehended.

NextJulie Byrne – 'Not Even Happiness' album review.
Hurray For The Riff Raff – Hungry Ghost.
Hungry Ghost is a song that almost comes out of left field on Hurray For The Riff Raff's album The Navigator (2017). It's a danceable three-minute gem with synth lines, drums and an amazing bass guitar that expand beyond Alynda Segarra's folk/country/ blues sound. In concept, Hungry Ghost, like the rest of the album, deals with frontwoman, Alynda Segarra's, own experiences growing up as a kid and the things that now trouble her about America. (Throughout the album she explicitly speaks out about things like ethnicity, race and sexuality.) In short, Hungry Ghost is truly a coming-of-age song that Segarra sings with gritted determination, "I've been a lonely girl / But I'm ready for the world."
The Beatles – The Ballad of John and Yoko.
The Ballad of John and Yoko is a fun catchy tune, which gave John Lennon, as a songwriter, an overdue No.1 hit. (Paul had dominated the limelight with four of the last Beatles hits, which were all inspired by him.) The song relates the details of his marriage to Yoko in Gibraltar and their subsequent 'honeymoon'.
John brought it to Paul's attention in April 1969. He had to persuade Paul to come down to Abbey Road to record it. But Yoko Ono remembers that it didn't take much for Paul to help John out. She added that Paul was aware how horrible people were to him during that period and simply wanted it to work well for John.
With George out of the country and Ringo making the film 'The Magic Christian', the two of them recorded the single alone. John played the guitar and sang, while Paul sang the harmony and played piano, bass and drums!
The song forever links the John and Yoko story with that of The Beatles. Enjoy!
Harry Styles – Sign of the Times.
Let's set the record straight here first. I have never been a One Direction or Harry Styles fan and I don't see that ever happening in the near future. Period! But I really, really, like his song Sign Of The Times with its otherworldly sound and melancholic sentiment. The best review I read described it something along the lines of it being an apocalyptic power ballad. It is definitely epic, a little too repetitive for my liking, but nonetheless Bowie-esque! Furthermore, it is such a fitting song that suits this shitty world we currently live in – from the sick epidemic culture of sexual misconduct and harassment of women, war and dislocation of tens of thousands of refugees, to the rise and surge of geopolitics to the right. Apologies for the lecture. Lets get back to the music. Enjoy!

My daughter played Harry Styles in the car the other day and it is a great, great song. And actually, his album isn't bad at all. It was definitely better than One Direction. Very different and he made some cool choices on it.

About The Kay Gallery
BlackRock's Main Gallery is named The Kay Gallery in recognition of a generous gift by Lauren and Rick Pollin in loving memory of Jack and Ina Kay.
Showcasing the work of emerging and mid-career artists from the Mid-Atlantic region, the intimate, 1500 square-foot art gallery is noteworthy for its soaring ceilings and natural light. Located on the first floor, the gallery also serves as a performance venue for classical music concerts, and is a fabulous space to rent for your special events.
Jack Kay, was born in 1925. He is the son of Abraham Kay, who immigrated to the United States from Russia at the age of ten. Abraham's family immediately settled in Washington, DC and the Kay family has lived in the area ever since. Jack would often recall there being a strong sense of community in the home where he grew up. The act of giving back to the community was a core value in the Kay household. The family was infused with a sense of "tzedakah"- charity as a fundamental part of life. In their home giving was not about being generous. It's just what you did. Jack married Ina, his high school sweetheart, at the age of 21. The couple honeymooned in Cuba, and when they returned home from their trip Jack had only one dime left in his pocket. It was at this time that Jack joined his father's business and built hundreds of homes and apartment communities in Montgomery and Prince George's County. Jack and Ina Kay had two children, Shelley and Lauren. Lauren Pollin remembers her father as an astute businessman and a visionary community leader. "He was inquisitive, methodical, and very hands-on in his approach to life and business," Lauren says, "He was sensitive, wise, and had such strength of conviction." Jack Kay passed away in 2013, eleven years after Ina passed in 2002. They left behind a tremendous legacy of philanthropy. Jack and Ina Kay were major supporters of the Jewish, social services, and arts communities in the greater Washington, DC area and beyond. Lauren says, "Seeing those acts of generosity from my parents is an inspiration to me."

These skills include self-management, interpersonal communication, goal-setting, mentoring and effective conflict resolution.
