There are many reasons why I find this story sad and distressing, one of the main reasons being that this decision, and many just like them, are being made without full knowledge of all the options available in the realm of true preventative medicine.
One of the sisters commented: " I had no difficulty making the decision because I'd seen my mum go through chemotherapy and there was no way I wanted that." The distressing thing about that comment, is that there are many, many other options rather than chemotherapy, but this young girl was never given that information. In her mind, there were only two choices – breast cancer and chemo – or a "preventative" mastectomy.
Even having the BRCA2 gene, doesn't mean that cancer is inevitable. As we are learning more and more, genetic expression can be altered by our environment. The food we eat, the thoughts we think, the chemicals we ingest all play a role on whether our genes express in a positive or negative way.
In Dr Sherrill Sellman's talks recently here in Australia, she spoke about a study which Dr Dean Ornish conducted in the US with prostate cancer patients. Changing them to a vegetarian diet and introducing lifestyle changes such as meditation, he altered the genetic expression of up to 500 genes in these men, for the better.
True preventative medicine is found in the way of assessing hormones and whether carcinogenic metabolites are being produced in the body, in cleansing and detoxifying, in using herbal medicine and supplements, and in food as medicine and emotional healing techniques – there is a huge array of tools in the natural medicine world that can be used to prevent and heal cancer – and I don't believe for one minute that a preventative mastectomy is going to be the best option for health.
Knowledge is power, but with genuine healing information being blocked and ridiculed by mainstream medicine, decisions like this are sadly going to become more and more commonplace.

By Illinois Public Media News— Health officials are moving forward with a plan to transfer residents living in Rantoul's Cherry Orchard apartments to new homes.
This is in response to health concerns that have marred the apartment complex for nearly two and a half years. Health inspectors learned in Sep. 2007 that there was something wrong with the Cherry Orchard apartments after discovering sewage seeping from a septic system into nearby farmland. Since then, there have been reports of mold, inadequate heating, and power outages.
The landlords of the property, Bernard Ramos and his father, Eduardo, promised that by late last year they would address the septic tank issue by moving tenants into housing units that were up to code.

Why Sheriffs Are Calling Obama's Release Of Over 6,000 Federal Prisoners "Biggest Sham"
Local sheriffs across America are voicing concern for the safety of the citizens they've sworn to protect after the biggest one-time release of federal inmates in U.S. history — though advocates of criminal justice reform maintain the release is being handled responsibly.
The 6,112 inmates were released from federal prison at the beginning of November in response to a decision by the U.S. Sentencing Commission to reduce sentences for most drug trafficking offenses and apply them retroactively. It coincides with a broader and bipartisan push for rethinking federal sentencing.
But the mass release raises immediate practical questions about how the ex-inmates can adjust.
"There's no transition here, there's no safety net. This is the biggest sham they are trying to sell the American people," Sheriff Paul Babeu of Arizona's Pinal County told FoxNews.com.
"On average these criminals have been in federal prison for nine years — you don't have to be a sheriff to realize that a felon after nine years in jail isn't going to be adding value to the community. A third are illegals and felons so they can't work. What do we think they are going to do?" said Babeu, also a congressional candidate.
The government is in fact trying to guide the transition for many. The Justice Department says 77 percent of exiting inmates are already in half-way houses or home confinement.
But local law enforcement officers have deep reservations, as the initiative ramps up quickly.
The November inmates are the first of approximately 46,000 who may have their cases reviewed. Of those released in the first round, the Department of Justice says 1,764 were to be turned over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for deportation proceedings.
Sheriffs on the border front-lines were skeptical of the deportation claim.
"The promise is they're going to be turned over to ICE and deported. Anyone who thinks there's any likelihood of them leaving the U.S. … think again," Babeu said, before saying the president should be held responsible for any crimes committed by those released.
Other sheriffs also challenged the claim that those being released are not a risk to communities.
"If [the Obama administration is] not capable of making honest and prudent decisions in securing our borders, how can we trust them to make the right decision on the release of prisoners who may return to a life of crime?" Sheriff Harold Eavenson of Rockwall County, Texas, told FoxNews.com.
While the average number of inmates being released to any one state is 80, Texas is slated to receive 597 inmates.
The inmates in question had been incarcerated on drug offenses, but the severity of the cases ranged broadly. An Associated Press review last month found while many were low-level drug dealers, some had prior convictions for robbery or were involved in moving serious drugs like cocaine and heroin. WGME in Maine also reported that the group includes a former "drug kingpin" previously listed as one of "America's Most Wanted," after his 20-year sentence was reduced.
"For them to tell me or tell citizens that they're going to do a good job and these inmates are non-violent, when in many instances drug crimes, drug purchasing, drug trafficking are related to other, violent crimes – I'd be amazed if the 6,000 … being released are non-violent," Eavenson said.

Time is parliament's most precious commodity – and it has run out
MPs want to take control of the timetable, but it's already too late for adequate Brexit legislation to pass by 29 March.
By Dr Hannah White
Souvenirs, depicting landmarks and themes of the United Kingdom, including the Elizabeth Tower of the Houses of Parliament, more commonly known as Big Ben, are pictured in central London on January 4, 2019. - British lawmakers will in mid-January finally vote on Prime Minister Theresa May's draft Brexit deal with Brussels, after she delayed a December vote amid staunch opposition to her plan. (Photo by NIKLAS HALLE'N / AFP) (Photo credit should read NIKLAS HALLE'N/AFP/Getty Images)
The Brexit process is highlighting the value of parliamentary time – parliament's most precious commodity – and the importance of who gets to control it. As we approach the Brexit endgame, parliamentarians are trying to find ways to control parliament's time in order to engineer the outcome they want.
Control over Commons time is the single most important parliamentary mechanism any government has, enabling it to determine what gets discussed and pass the legislation it wants.
It's not actually difficult for opposition and backbench MPs to propose new legislation – they can present (and publish) a private member's bill on most sitting days. And there are various mechanisms for them to propose topics for debate.
But except on specific days, what they lack – without government support – is the ability to actually get these things discussed.
What is Entryism, and how does it affect political parties?
Is Boris Johnson losing his way?
Who were the real winners of Keir Starmer's Labour Party rule change?
That is why MPs who disagree with the government's deal with the EU have been intensely focused on seizing control of time in the Commons.
Some – like Dominic Grieve – want to ensure there is time for debate and votes on alternatives to the Prime Minister's plan. Others – like Yvette Cooper and Nick Boles – want the time to pass legislation that would bind the government into extending Article 50 and buy more time for negotiations.
Brexiteers have floated the idea of "proroguing" parliament (discontinuing the session without dissolving it) to prevent it using its time to do anything that might derail the UK's planned exit on 29 March.
Meanwhile Theresa May seems to be hoping that, as the parliamentary time available to agree her deal and pass the legislation needed to implement it steadily evaporates, it will start to appear more palatable to the 230 MPs who oppose it – or the EU27 will feel inclined to amend it in ways that might win their support.
The parliamentary time available before exit day is now extremely limited. If May's deal passes, she will still need to get her highly contentious Withdrawal Agreement Bill into law.
But if the Prime Minister's bill does not pass, leaving the UK on course for a no-deal exit, the government has said parliament needs to pass six pieces of primary legislation and around 600 pieces of secondary legislation before 29 March. At the moment though, these bills are not making much progress, because the government is worried about them being amended in unwelcome ways.
If it wants to – in an emergency – parliament can pass laws in 24 hours. In the "wash up" before an election, entire legislative programmes are concluded, modified or abandoned in a matter of days. But this process – characterised by inadequate scrutiny, horse-trading, and the loss of controversial but important provisions that simply cannot be agreed in the time available – would be no way to set the UK up for life outside the EU.
On Tuesday, when MPs are presented with an array of amendments to May's plan, we will see whether the Commons wants to temporarily delegate control of its agenda – giving backbenchers a chance to identify the consensus on Brexit that has so far escaped her.
But regardless of the outcome, the government needs now to press on with getting necessary legislation in place by 29 March and accept that MPs may table amendments.
Given the increasing scarcity of parliamentary time available to scrutinise these laws, serious consideration must now be given to increasing its supply. February recess certainly looks like an unaffordable luxury, and weekend sittings – though unusual – should also be on the agenda.
Asking Conservative MPs to cancel their skiing trips will not be popular, and the government will worry that its opponents will more readily remain in Westminster. But if the government maintains that a no-deal exit is a real possibility, its responsibility is to do everything it can to ensure the country is ready for that outcome.

Scottee: Risk
Circus and shagging are not too dissimilar. You do everything you can to the warrant the attention of your audience, flirting with the fear of rejection, teasing each other with false endings, warming up to the moment you take the plunge and reveal yourself.
Risk is a show directed by Scottee that reveals the relationship between sexuality, risk and circus - clumsily but carefully aligned to its coloration with that moment before a trick is revealed.
We think this show is a series of monologues and performances from those who often say nothing on stage. Audience members watch from under duvets in beds and piles of mattresses litter the space.
We think the show will explore ideas of unwarranted sexual attention, HIV infection, rape and shame.
Risk is a show that explores the reason behind the attraction to risk, its aftermath, the acceptance and consequence.
Scottee isn't a circus performer or director. Risk will be his first introduction into contemporary circus (although he often collaborates with circus performers in his work within his cabaret work). Scottee's work is heavily based in socially engaged practice - we proposed the idea for him to direct a circus show both for his own artistic development, because the art form felt right in terms of the themes we are wanting to explore, but also to provide circus performers with an opportunity to devise and develop work with socially engaged intention.
We have so far engaged with the Roundhouse & The Albany as partners. We have confirmed a second R&D period with support from The Albany and have penciled the show to premier at The Albany as part of CircusFest18. We have so far had a very initial R&D phase in association with Lab:time at NCCA & The Albany. Our time initially developing Risk at NCCA was invaluable. Being able to quickly learn circus terminology, safety, warm up and technique was a good basis in moving forward and creating my first circus show. Being able to pair the expertise of the artists, Molly and NCCA staff with my performance making background meant we made some very beauty, soft, subtle work that explored queerness, and the affects of homophobia, sexual assault and drug abuse on the body in an art form rooted in ability and risk.
Our closed sharing allowed us to share these ideas with great feedback - people thought the work was honest, comfortable and looked forward to seeing the next stage of the process.

Remember all the great moments from the Wake Forest-N.C. State rivalry? Neither do we.
When the ACC raided the Big East a few years ago in a desperate attempt to become a football power, it ended one of the things that I used to love about the conference — every team played every other team once a year in football and twice in basketball.
I especially miss the double round-robin in basketball. The added familiarity with opponents better prepared ACC teams for March Madness, and it made conference rivalries stronger. If N.C. State lost its first game against one of the Big 4, I always knew there would be a rematch.
With the expansion to 12 teams, it was bad enough that N.C. State was no longer guaranteed to play Duke twice in basketball (or at all in football). With the conference growing to 14 in a year or two, it was inevitable that more rivals would play each other less frequently.
Under the new scheduling format announced last week, each basketball team gets one primary rival to play in a home-and-home every year. In N.C. State's case, it's Wake Forest. No offense to the Deacons, but the one home game that Wolfpackers care about above all others is against Carolina. Once every three years, the Tar Heels won't have to come to Raleigh.

Do you know your enemy?
When I was a freshman at N.C. State, I quickly learned that I needed to know four words in the fight song above all others. I could be forgiven for not knowing the rest as long as I shouted "Go to Hell, Carolina!" at the top of my lungs. (The actual words to the song are "Come over the hill, Caroline," but really, what fun is that?)
For Wolfpack fans, it's crystal clear that North Carolina is their rival. But Sports Illustrated has a survey out that shows every fan base in the ACC doesn't have the same clarity, at least when it comes to figuring out who's their main in-conference rival.
The SI survey covered every I-A conference in the country. Andy Staples wrote a summary of its results, including this description of how it came about:
In October, we asked college football fans of all stripes to tell us about themselves. We received 33,144 responses to questions such as "What is your favorite team?" and "How closely do you follow recruiting?" We received responses from fans of all 120 schools in the Football Bowl Subdivision, and everyone's answers counted the same — whether they came from Ohio State fans (the most, with 2,004 responses) or Florida Atlantic fans (the fewest, with four responses).
That last sentence tells me this wasn't the most scientific survey, but that doesn't make the data for the ACC any less interesting. Here's how fans from each school answered the question "What is your biggest conference rival?":

Don't Dismiss Abuse: People Matter More than Institutions
No more prioritizing institutional protection over individual needs
Unless we've been hiding in a box, most of us have started noticing a trend in our twitter feeds and daily news headlines: sexual harassment and assault have been running rampant. And it is far beyond Hollywood and Harvey Weinstein, though he seemed to open the floodgates.
It's also happening in our nation's halls of power.
The latest, Congressman John Conyers, is a member of the Democratic Party who chose to step down from his seat on the House Judiciary Committee after being accused of sexually harassing a female member of his staff several years ago.
It's evident that partisan politics simply don't matter here. When it comes to the mistreatment of women, men on both sides of the aisle are to blame. Women are trying to speak out against these abuses, but certain politicians seem eager to make this about party allegiance instead of victim protection.
This Sunday on NBC's Meet the Press, House Minority leader Nancy Pelosi discounted the accusers in a widely-panned interview—an interview from which she quickly backtracked. But in the moment, instead of speaking out against sexual harassment, she decided to remark on the importance of due process and to pay compliments to Congressman Conyers, a member of her party, for all he's done over the years to "protect women."
Yes, it's true. Unfortunately.
And if this sounds familiar, that's because it is.
Many remember that after Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore was recently accused of child sexual assault, some (even most) Republicans were quick to condemn his alleged behavior.
For that I am thankful.
President Trump recently came to his defense, repeatedly arguing to reporters that Moore was denying all the accusations. He also made a conscious effort to point out that the Senate does not need another "liberal person" like Moore's opponent, Doug Jones, in office. And it appears that many voters may be swayed by this argument that the most important issue in play is holding onto majority control.
But that's missing the point of this moment. It's not about who is in the Senate. It's about serious and credible allegations of child abuse.
Our First Priority Is Not Protecting People of Power
These messages are clear: Americans should place their trust not in the multiple women who claim to have been victimized, but in the innocence pleas coming from powerful men.
Institutions are at stake, they say. Majorities need to be kept. Or they they are doing such good work. Or people's jobs will be lost. Or whatever.
This, friends, is the wrong message for a number of reasons.
Let's be clear, I understand that many find themselves hesitant to criticize men like Moore when we don't know all the facts. Believing in a person's innocence until he or she has been proven guilty is an important legal principle that is at the very bedrock of the American justice system. For this, all of us should be thankful.
That being said, our priorities must be kept straight: when women and girls are mistreated, our primary concern must not be first to protect the reputations of potential perpetrators and their institutions. In most cases, their day in court will come, and rightfully so. Our first response before bringing anything else into the discussion is this: listen to those who have been victimized and give them the freedom to speak up. And be willing to believe people who are sharing their pain.
When a crime is reported, call the police. And, when allegations are credible, take action.
And if institutions (Hollywood, politics, or church) are building walls to protect those who abuse at the expense of those who have been victimized, we need to take those institutions apart… brick by brick.
Too many political leaders, right and left, worry about the stability of their respective political parties and spend their days carefully counting congressional seats. Everybody wants to either gain or maintain a majority. But when the partisan scorecard becomes more important than everything else, we're selling our souls on both sides. One party may win, but the real losers are those who have been victimized, because we have communicated that their pain will never matter as much as that congressional seat.
Despite our concern—however legitimate—regarding upcoming election results, we should heed the words of none other than Kellyanne Conway, who reassured us that "there is not a Senate seat that is worth more than a child."
She was right then.
That's why Roy Moore should step out of his race, but also why Al Franken should step down from his seat, and so should John Conyers. Being in Congress is not a right, and credible allegations (or actual admission, in Franken's case) mean you need to step down or away for an investigation.
When we compare the importance of protecting political institutions to our need to care for those who are abused, the latter should win every single time. Any institution—political or not—that fails to do this and instead tries to protect abusive men at the cost of ignoring women who have been victimized must not just be confronted, but either eliminated or given a complete overhaul.
Brick by brick.
Sound radical? Probably so, but as we have observed, what has been done thus far does not seem to be working, as the number of men accused of sexually exploiting women continues to grow.
And, if you (like me) have talked to some of your colleagues recently, you know such harassment is everywhere.
Institutions across the country, whether they're responsible for policy creation or film production, need to spend some time in self-reflection, considering where their priorities are. Do they side with those who have been victimized, or defend perpetrators?
They need to consider their long-term goals: Do they concern themselves with prevention, or only look to cover up incidents of abuse as they bubble to the surface?
Churches Are Complicit, Too
Believe it or not, each and every church is going to have to both ask and answer this same set of questions. If we want to be places that embrace the contributions of women, value their giftedness, and encourage them to tell their stories, we need to start by confronting the ways we too have become complicit with cultural norms and narratives. (In a guest post, my director of communications shares more on this issue.)
If we truly want to see the tide change as we say we do, it's time for us to act. And pastors and church leaders, it starts with you.
Don't protect abusers in your church. Protect victims.
In abuse situations, let the police investigate. (Read the interview with my sister-in-law, who prosecutes child sexual abusers.)
When there are credible harassment allegations, the person accused should step down or aside while an investigation is done. The "innocent until proven guilty" idea is a legal one, but a credibly-accused elder in your church should step down as the investigation is underway.
It's not easy, but it is necessary.
At the end of the day, the mistreatment of women isn't just a Hollywood problem or a Washington D.C. problem. It's a people problem, rooted in humankind's proclivity towards sin, power, and control.
Instead of choosing to see women for who they are—people made in the image of God—men too often choose to objectify and exploit them. It won't stop as long as we protect them and their institutions more than those who have been wounded.
And the church has a long way to go, based on the #ChurchToo hashtag, which built on #MeToo.
The spectrum of sexual exploitation is wide, but it all points back to this: until we are willing to confess our part in the problem and repent, the church is just as complicit as any other institution.
Where from Here?
That being said, merely acknowledging the part that human sinfulness might play in recent events doesn't guarantee that circumstances will change either. The reality is this: if the culture stays as it is and leadership structures in Washington D.C., Hollywood, and our churches continue down their current path, women will continue to experience abuse.
This cannot be tolerated. And if those brick walls hide abusers, we have to take them down—brick by brick.
If we believe in the worth and dignity of all human beings—both male and female—as image bearers of the living God, then we know full well the work that must be done. From here on out, we must insist on no more hiding, no more cover ups, and no more prioritizing institutional health over individual needs. Both in our churches and in our nation's highest levels of power.
Brick by brick, until the truth is known and seen.

As part of the Colorado Rocky Mountain Chapter of Association of Contingency Planners, we get briefings from various organizations, companies and facilities.
On Friday, April 17th we were invited to the Federal Reserve Branch in Denver, which is actually a branch of the Kansas City Reserve Bank. Part of the briefing consisted of the normal barrage of statistics on the paper money of the United States as it flows in and out of the building and the overall system. It still amazes me that our paper money is pretty tough to last through all the stuff we put it through!
The Federal Reserve, FEMA and a couple non-profits have created several documents for employers and employees to complete as a part of 'financial preparedness'.
As part of their research to determine what resources they could provide to an employer or employee, it was discovered that $400.00 is the breakpoint for an employee. If they did not have that amount available for a health issue, new tires, unexpected car repair, etc. – they would be in trouble. If an employee is distracted at work you have problems: safety, work getting done, attitude, etc. If they have to take time off from work to resolve the issue you still have problems back at work due to the absence. Using the Federal Reserve's education materials or trainers there can be free 'financial education' for your employees; also your bank might offer similar services. Per several of our chapter members that are in banking, they know their trainers use the Fed documents for training at schools – it's your government's resources – use them and often!
There is also a form for small businesses, if your CPA, insurance agent or banker have not given you something similar – fill it out and give it to key employees who have authority to execute these accounts if needed or save it electronically. If you save it electronically, be sure you have access from any secure location and make sure at least one other person has access.
Both forms are available on the above web site or you can order hardcopies, in English and Spanish and are PDF automated, meaning you can fill them out on-line and save the completed form.
There are blanks for all the basic financial information: bank accounts, insurance policies with contact phone numbers and account numbers. Utilities with account numbers and contact information is something I had not thought of, but getting the old bills with those numbers might not be feasible if the location of those documents is inside a burned or flooded building.
The section that gave us pause in the briefing was the last part of the form – Irreplaceable times to take during evacuation. This is what we never want to really think about or plan for — if I am at work do I race back to my office and grab the PC, phone and purse/wallet, favorite coffee mug or any of the personal stuff around my desk? If I am at home – do I grab the pictures that are in the far corner of the basement, then the empty kennels to use for scared pets or my classic 33's and the new turntable?
We do need to consider our actions before we have to react! Doing it now gives us choices and plans – all of which can be updated or changed – but not ignored!
Succession planning for your staff (leadership or team leaders) is a part of over-all strategy that gets included in the business plan and budget for the year &/or the 3 to 5 year plan (a longer time frame gives you perspective vs. reaction). You might consider this a jig-saw puzzle trying to fit all the pieces together; however it might be more helpful to consider this exercise lining up dominoes – if you move one player out of sequence it will have a cascading effect without immediate replacement of a similar player. You want to prevent disruption in operations, internal morale or external relationships by having a plan or a structure in place and known.
As you go through the process you should include key staff in the discussion including the specific department to be discussed and the department (HR?) that will update (or create) job descriptions and finance that will need to consider the salary and training budgets.
What skills are needed in Position A? Position B? Position C, etc.
Is that skills list documented in any job description?
Has the skills list been updated in the past year?
Has the skills list been validated by person doing the job now?
Have the skills list been validated by internal staff?
Who has those (or most) of those skills now?
Are they a good cultural fit for the leadership team (or team leader)?
What additional skills do they bring to the position?
Who would fill their current slot?
Who can be backup or vacation coverage for Position A?
HINT: this is a great time to access a potential candidate with marginal risk to the company or either employee and to do a bit of cross-over or transitional training. It gives the potential candidate an opportunity to shadow the current position holder performing the job to see if it might be of interest or a good fit. There will be time to say 'no' at any point during the exercise; again with minimal disruption or risk to the company or the employees.
What information does the backup need to know?
Where is that information documented?
Who has access to the documentation now?
Who would like to be in Position A?
What are their current skills?
Are they a good cultural fit for the leadership team?


The Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta has given a strong assurance that government is well prepared to pool together the needed resources to fund the projects outlined in the 2019 budget.
The comment was in reaction to concerns raised by some stakeholders about how government was going to raise money to finance its budget deficit as well as some of its major infrastructural projects in the 2019 budget.
But while addressing Members of Parliament at the post budget workshop at Koforidua in the Eastern region, Mr. Ofori-Atta stated that there were multiple avenues available for government to raise the needed resources to actualize the promises in next year's budget.
Mr. Ofori-Atta maintained that there are various measures to also boost domestic revenue collection through effective ways.

Q: how to reduce the div height

      Client

        <input style="height: 100px" type="text" name="Client" id="Client" readonly="readonly" class="m-wrap span4 clrField" tabindex="1">
        <input type="text" name="name" id="name" readonly="readonly" class="m-wrap span8 clrField" tabindex="2">

Now I want to reduce the div height.
I am tried with min-height but its not reduces.
If I increase height it is increasing.

A: You need to use max-height not min-height!
div{
max-height: 100px;
height: 100%;
}

A: use max-height instead. It will work fine. the min- height wont work on div.

A:

..............
..........

A: A div's height depends on its inner elements, in your example, the first input is having a height of 100px, so the div will have at least 100px height, ignoring spacing, boarder, padding.
Setting max-height on the div will hint the rendering engine to limit the height, but doesn't necessarily work all the time.
I'd suggest you changing the input's height first:
<input style="max-height: 100px" type="text" name="Client" id="Client" readonly="readonly" class="m-wrap span4 clrField" tabindex="1" />

City pays nearly $20K for Dunbar gym repairs
By Adam Prestridge
Published 12:00 pm Friday, June 28, 2019
Activities at the Dunbar Recreation Center have been limited the first half of this summer as repairs have been underway on the facility's gymnasium.
According to Mayor Dexter McLendon, crews worked for several weeks to address issues at the aging facility located on Schools Highlands Road.
"We had to put a new floor in," McLendon said last week. "We had some issues that we were concerned about — there could have been some mold underneath the mat. When that happens, and it comes to your attention, you have to get it taken out and cleaned. There are rules and laws we have to follow."
The mat and other flooring was removed, cleaned and repaired as a result of the discovery. However, once work began, another issue arose.
"When we got in there, we found out that there is part of the tile — the glue — that might have some form of asbestos in it that we were not aware of," McLendon said. "Of course, when all of that was done, you didn't have all of the rules about asbestos. There was a very minimal amount, but while we were doing it, we took everything out."
The gymnasium reopened last Thursday, the day before the first official day of summer. Summer campers are able to access the gymnasium now that repairs are completed.
The repairs came at an unexpected cost to the city. During Monday afternoon's City Council meeting, non-budgeted "emergency" expenditures totaling nearly $20,000 were approved. Ark Remediation charged $15,675 for emergency removal and disposition of asbestos from the gymnasium and $3,376.36 was paid to Alabama Restoration for emergency mold remediation.
"We're going to do it the right way," McLendon concluded.

So let's talk about this removed from this stuff. So I've got some examples of expressive lettering on here, and I'll show you some things and kind of what I was thinking while I was doing this. So we've got a list of adjectives to work with, and I find that whenever I am at a loss as far as what to practice, expressive letters and themes are really good. Way to go. So, for example, you could have a fairy tale theme you could have, you know, like a geometric modern theme that you anything that you can really think of, just something that really helps you, you know, emote, emote stuff. So when I was working on this, for example, as you can see, like this rough the way that I did the word rough is you know, I really did this, making it really look, you know, rough. And it actually showed through in the way that I was doing the lettering. You know, I was really pushing down and being kind of harsh with it. Hard on hard on the brush. I mean, I toured that Russia part. Let me tell you on th...
e way that you know I did. Wendy was, you know, with the sound effects. Of course. Get so much better. What sales go through? Some other examples. You know, like this boy. I wanted it to be playful and fun and spontaneous. And so the way that I'm drawing it was, you know, this really like heavy touch, like touch, heavy touch, light touch. And so it's all kind of like a dance. You know, that's a really good metaphor. Is that you know, you kind of start out by sort of like rehearsing like how that feels. And so, you know, something like, give a good example of this, like this natural least, you know, it's the flow kind of languorous movement with the brush, because the word itself, naturally So what does that imply? It's much different than the word rough. Eso you really kind of have Teoh push that emotion that you have for the word. And I tend to repeat the word over and over again, like a mantra while I'm doing this. So you know, same thing here, like amazing was anything. And so you know it, like a fed lettering, is a visual voice. And so you know, as you're doing this, you're kind of speaking through these letters, and your physical actions have to convey that it's fall. A couple of others crash plays, killer eerie area. I wanted to be, like, just really funky and kind of weird, And it was really strange kind of staccato, you know, movement to kind of get that look. That crash was, you know, you know, almost like if something was, well, letters, air crashing together. So you'll kind of get the idea that you really want, you know, those letters to be expressed there. So why don't we go ahead and get started with this part right here? You know, I want you, Teoh have a lot of fun with this now that you've learned some basic letters. So let's start out with a couple of these adjectives. Just really easy ones like let's dio, you know, Let's go ahead and dio angry. It's one of my favorite words. I think it's like one of the best words ever be invented, because what happens when you get angry? If you're like me, I mean angry. I mean, whenever you get hungry, you get angry, so you get angry. So how do you feel when you get angry? You know, you're like, desperate and you want to eat. And there's this, like, this rage building up inside you. And so that is how you would let her the word hang gree. So feel the hangar coming through as you're doing this, I'll show you how all do it. So I am going to get super angry on your guys, right? Let me hanger that again. A little more rush. Other. That's how I feel when I'm hungry. So what's trying to maybe a little bit something that's more leisurely? Let's go back to the seventies and we're in leisure suit. Make sure that I know how to spell leisure. It's Ellie. I right. Okay, So what about that rule I before E except I before E, except after C and 90 other examples. They're lying to us. Okay, Like with the angry, You know, I'm trying to kind of, like, really get like this. That's rough, you know, kind of brush this'll feeling, and it's very staccato, sharp, intense movements. But if I'm going to do you know, leisure or relaxed, I'm gonna be really light and gentle and delicate, So I'm just gonna go relaxed. Let's dio I've said that I would do leisure. Now I tend to like the letter kind of on the large side. It allows me to use my entire arm. See, that's some leisure. And then she see You know, you noticed that I was kind of, you know, holding the brush really light. I was going really slow. And so my physical movements relates to the outcome of the letters. So we could also do something like so crazy. I mean, what does it look like when something Everybody has a different different definition of crazy? I'm just gonna do something really wacky. Kind of a little bit of what I would call like an intermezzo design. You know where I'm trying? Different styles, different letters. You know, I could also do Crazy Lake. You know, something like that? Yeah. Can you talk a little bit about the spacing of the letters as you're kind of doing this expressive or just in general, I thought some questions about how do I know how much space How many's based diabetes Really? Really Good question. In fact, remember, how is saying that the letter end is the magical letter. So what makes the lower case and really, really interesting is that it provides kind of ah, good amount of spacing. Let me do a little bit of a so something that's kind of interesting here, and I mean, doesn't a little bit. Let me make a little bit. Listen. So the spacing between letters, it tends to be a tiny bit smaller. This spacing right here tends to be just a little bit smaller than the counter space, and a counter space is the open space between a letter. So this from here to here is almost the same distance as you can see from this inside of this end. And so, generally, that's usually kind of a good rule of thumb when it comes to spacing. So another thing to consider about spacing, though, is spacing effects, the heaviness or the lightness of letters. And so this becomes really important because if you want something toe look really bold, part of what makes a letter look bold is not just you know how dark the black ends around it, but it's the absence of the white space around it as well. So you know, if you have a bull, you want something look really bold. All of those letters need to be really tight and next to each other. If you want something to be loose and light looking, then you have more white space. And so both of those things become really important to kind of play off of one another. But in general, if you want kind of an average take a look at the end. And that's why I really recommend doing the n a N b and C nd eso won. That particular exercise is a great exercise for learning spacing. All right, back to some funky stuff. Let's do what's you excited? Because excited is exciting. All right, so I'm gonna do this word excited. I'm gonna do this really kind of just like that. That looks excited to me. And you can see in the night you know, you can't go too fast with letters or else, you know, you tend to end up running out of a little bit of ink and things get kind of dry, but you still want to go a little bit faster. So what? You guys go ahead and then I'll take a look at what you're doing. And I'm kind of curious to see what you what you all have going on. Let's just spend a couple more minutes on this, and then we'll move into doing some some your own name. Oh, this is an exceptional hang gree over here. That is a really amazing one. Oh, I love it. That is very Allah. Guys, that's incredible. Your letter forms air. Great on that. This is one of the best exercise is just, you know, to play around, experiment with different letters. You know, I recommend keeping in kind of a theme, you know, as you're getting started. So if you're trying to do, like, a dry brush lettered set and you're using the word angry or angry, we're whatever it is. I mean, continue to kind of keep that that rhythm, going with other words that are very similar and that will really help train you to get usedto to doing that. Love it. I think we should post some of the stuff up on the board. What do you think? Ah,

Wow!!! Great class, terrific presenter! Easy to follow, professional, enthusiastic, fun!!! Most CL presenters have at least one of those attributes, but not all. CL Management: have potential new presenters learn from Laura's class. Only one suggestion: Laura's constant hair interference gets really tiresome and irritating. She frequently tosses her hair over a shoulder, and moves her hair behind her shoulder with her hands, and "fights" her hair being in the way during the whole presentation. Very distracting. Laura obviously loves how her very long hair defines her personality, and I'm not suggesting that is a bad thing. But for these short presentations, perhaps Laura would consider corralling all that hair with a loose ponytail, behind her back? That said, I bought the course anyway, as she is an outstanding teacher.
I loved loved loved this class. So wish I had been there in person. Although I'm not so great with the brush lettering, Laura was so perfect in her teaching and I definitely have some ideas to put into practice.
This class was amazing it had high energy lots of details . It shared new ideas on where I could use such beautiful lettering I'm super excited to use it in my business and on my note cards! Buy it!

12 Cleveland Cavaliers Comeback Memes That Show Exactly How Their Fans Feel Right Now
By Alexi McCammond

On Sunday night, the Cleveland Cavaliers won the NBA championship, the first victory in its 46-season history. The Cavaliers beat the Golden State Warriors in a 93-89 match that was tied with less than two minutes remaining. This is a major win for the Cavaliers and for Cleveland: the city hadn't claimed a national sports title since 1964 when the Browns football team won the NFL championship. These Cleveland Cavaliers comeback memes show just how excited sports fans are all over the country for the team's incredible (and long-awaited) victory.
LeBron James helped carry the team to the big W in a heated game. James started out playing for the Cavaliers, but left for the Miami Heat in 2010. He was quickly vilified for this choice because he was born and raised in Akron, Ohio, and leaving the Cavaliers for the Heat seemed like he was abandoning his home state.
But that all changed when he returned to the Cavs two years ago. It was almost like James played better knowing the tumultuous relationship he had with Ohio — in his first two years back with the Cavs, he led them to the NBA Finals both times and claimed the championship title this year. These 12 memes of the Cavaliers' comeback perfectly capture the mood of sports fans (and Cleveland, Ohio) fans alike.
Crying LeBron
This might just replace the infamous crying Michael Jordan meme.
The True Comeback
It's no easy feat to pick your team out of a 3-1 championship slump. Talk about a comeback.
Steph Curry's Sad, Sad Shoes
Please note the crying Michael Jordan face superimposed on the shoes. Genius.
Switching Sides
OK, photoshopping Curry's daughter into James' arms is just savage. (But also kind of hilarious.)
Throwback To The Better Comeback
Never forget the original comeback kids from High School Musical.
The Biggest Game Of The Season
This was pretty much all of us, no matter what team you were rooting for, but especially Cavs fans in the last two minutes of the game.
(Basketball) Game Of Thrones
I think it's safe to say James definitely took back the throne tonight.
All Hail The Queen
King James has become Queen James? Not sure, but I'm into it.
Chef Curry
Drake might have to change his lyrics to note that Curry went from 100 to 0 real quick.
Savage New Cleveland Swag
Ayesha Curry (Steph's wife) probably wouldn't be too happy about this shirt.
These Cleveland comeback memes are hilarious and show just how happy Cavs fans are at their home team's historic victory.

László Ferenczy (1898 – 31 May 1946) was a lieutenant colonel in the Hungarian Royal Gendarmerie and member of its "central dejewification unit" during World War II and the Holocaust.

Born in Felsővisó, Ferenczy served from March 1940 to July 1942 with a unit that searched for Jews who had fled to Hungary from Slovakia. After Nazi Germany's invasion of Hungary in March 1944, he was appointed—on 25 March—as liaison between the Hungarian Royal Gendarmerie and the German security police, which meant he worked closely with SS officer Adolf Eichmann. Randolph Braham writes that Ferenczy's office was on the second floor of the Lomnic Hotel in the Svábhegy district of Budapest, near Eichmann's office in the Majestic Hotel.

During the Holocaust in Hungary in the spring and summer of 1944, Ferenczy helped to organize the deportation of over 434,000 of Hungary's Jews to the Auschwitz concentration camp in occupied Poland, where most were gassed on arrival. When Miklós Horthy, the Hungarian regent, ordered an end to the deportations in July, Ferenczy appeared to switch sides and in August made contact with the Budapest Aid and Rescue Committee, which was trying to make deals with Eichmann to halt the deportations. In October, when Ferenc Szálasi, head of the pro-Nazi Arrow Cross Party, became prime minister, Ferenczy was once again placed in charge of rounding up and deporting Jews.

Ferenczy stood trial in Hungary after the war and was hanged on 31 May 1946.

EUROSENSE performed LiDAR survey of Houtribdijk
For a contractor, Eurosense performed a lidar survey over the Houtribdijk (NL). This dam (although called a dike) was constructed between 1963 and 1975 and splits the lake into two parts: On the west side the Markermeer and on the east the IJsselmeer. It will be renovated in the coming years to be ready for future storms. In the picture below a half meter DSM of the naviduct (an aqueduct which includes a lock) on the Houtribdijk in Enkhuizen (NL) is shown.

EUROSENSE executed the FP7 project DECUMANUS for the European Union (EU) in a consortium led by INDRA. The aim of the project was to provide city managers with a set of sustainable decision support services that allow the deployment of geo-spatial products for the development and implementation of climate change strategies and meeting the diverse challenges of sustainable urban development. EUROSENSE realized the 'city energy' service, which focused on determining the areas within the city that are the least energy-efficient. By zooming in on the increasing atmospheric CO2 concentrations that cities produce due to the inefficient energy use, cost reductions that would occur due to energy saving could be determined. EO-based services have been developed focusing on three aspects: thermal energy loss due to the heating of buildings, excessive lighting (night-time lights) and roof photovoltaic potential. Lees meer

It's a pretty well-accepted fact that entrepreneurs typically approach business differently than traditional Corporate America workers.
But many successful entrepreneurs take it a step further and completely flip the script in order to subscribe to a new business paradigm. Would your business benefit from a new way of thinking? Chris Guillebeau, an intriguing entrepreneur, traveler, and writer, offers just such a new formula in his new book, The $100 Startup: Reinvent the Way You Make a Living, Do What You Love, and Create a New Future.
When he approached us about featuring Heritage Link Brands in his book, we were immediately aligned with its core principles, which involve the critical role of freedom and value within the microbusiness revolution. We also appreciated that he understood that renegade entrepreneurs--those who buck the system and go solo--can now test, launch, and scale their projects extremely quickly and on the cheap. He eschews some of the more traditional paths to starting your own small business and instead focuses the book on folks who start microbusinesses without investment or employees, and often without any expertise in the area they're pursuing.
1. The Power of the Almighty "Side Hustle"
The book encourages entrepreneurs to not limit themselves to their primary business idea but instead to also consider offshoots, spinoffs, and side projects. They shouldn't exist because things are going poorly with your main hustle--precisely the opposite. Instead, Guillebeau encourages us to pursue other passions in the midst of success.
When my wife and I set out on the entrepreneurial yellow-brick road, it was tempting to give up our side hustles--mainly rental properties. There were already so many things on our plate: We'd just gotten married, were pregnant with our first child, and now had a fantastic new opportunity that nobody else in the market had yet moved on. No matter the warnings, nothing could truly prepare me for the level of blood, sweat, and tears that went into our first year of business.
Yet, even with that, I am grateful that we held on to our side hustles. Financially and mentally, it was important to have buffers in place to prevent us from getting thrown off by the inevitable challenges of our new wine business. In essence, I went from viewing our side hustles as optional--glorified chump change--to viewing them as keys to the kingdom. They are integral cornerstones of our financial foundation that solidified the path for us to pursue our passions.
Out of the gate, our focus was solely on importing black-produced wines from South Africa into the United States. But consumers soon let us know that they were also interested in enjoying wines produced by indigenous producers in other regions as well. Since we were just getting our bearings with South African wines (and importation!), it was enticing to play it safe and stick to our business plan, especially given the superhigh rate of new small businesses that fold in the first three years.
We had done our due diligence, and it felt a bit crazy to turn our focus topsy-turvy--especially so quickly. But, man, am I happy that we decided to give the people what they wanted, because the people indeed knew what they were talking about! Thankfully, their feedback and purchasing habits matched. And it opened us up to a new plane of valuable large customers, such as airlines and restaurants, that were attracted to our more diverse wine portfolios.
Rather than thinking that the most groundbreaking ideas are for "that maverick over there," it's time to consider that you may indeed be that maverick! Whether you adopt a completely new paradigm, or commit to constantly questioning your assumptions and remaining open to startling new ways of thinking, it could just generate your next big business triumph.

At Beijing in 2008, alongside partner Olivia Allison in the duet, Jenna Randall was part of the first GB synchro team to compete at an Olympic Games since Barcelona in 1992
Randall and Allison finished 14th in Beijing but have since shown great improvement — along with the British team, which will compete in the Olympic eight-woman event for the first time in London. The team finished ninth at last year's World Championships, while in 2010 Randall and Allison secured Britain's best finish at a European Championships for 15 years (fifth) before taking Commonwealth Games silver. With a place already confirmed, you're guaranteed to see Randall competing this summer — if she can nab a medal, you can guarantee you'll see a lot more of her after that.
