The seventh tenant of Google's philosophy states "There's always more information out there." After years of providing marketers and webmasters more data about the performance of their websites, Google recently took a step to reverse data transparency by encrypting organic search terms. Some giants in the SEO industry have suggested the move was in response to the NSA leak in June, while others have written that Google may start charging for this data. Given the company's progression in search algorithms, the change is most likely here to stay. From Caffeine to Penguin to Hummingbird, Google has been trying to make search friendlier to end users, often to the chagrin of SEO professionals. Instead of relying on creative hacks, by leveraging a strategy that focuses on relevance and using tools to measure and guide decisions, SEO efforts can be preserved for years to come.
We have been in this situation before; in 2011, Google announced it was implementing SSL encryption for users signed in to its services. The company's core belief is "Focus on the user and all else will follow." Take a moment to consider the weight of this statement, which decrees that search engine optimization should help users first and foremost. The years of quick, spammy meta tags and dirty, "visibility : hidden" keywords are over. SEO work now takes time and practice.
Google's switch to encrypted search uses Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) instead of the unencrypted HTTP schema. The referring URL is redirected, stripping the search term out of the URL string. Removing these search terms limits visit and conversation data at the organic keyword level. In the past, this data had been used to understand the exact phrases customers used as search queries before visiting a site. Knowing what keywords brought the most traffic gave marketers a target to build pages around.
Users are also leaning more on social media as a part of their search process. Finding new products or the best locations can be hard to do when looking at a list of search results on Google. Whether Google improves site rankings based on social media is debatable, but Google Plus pages do receive special benefits to improve search visibility. Smaller businesses should especially take note. A local coffee shop may never beat Starbucks in an organic search for coffee, but a good ranking on Yelp or Foursquare could help it edge out the major chain when a user performs a geographic search.
In some cases, knowing a keyword can still be helpful for creating page titles. Often times what a user will search for and what a company may call something will be misaligned. This could be the difference between "Used Cars" and "Pre-Owned Cars". Those keywords are still reported and can better indicate what a user wants to find. In these instances, a great tool to install – and one that is often overlooked – is a site search. Google has also identified the value of this tool and has been testing a new extension for their paid ads to search a site. Another tool, the keyword planner, can help you pick page titles, but it is important to remember not to simply "set it and forget." Common search terms can and will change, leading to missed opportunities.
Realize the importance of original content. Google may "know everything" already, but try to give the search engine something new to learn. Adding content to your site that has limited competition will quickly rank you on the first page of search results. Again, using the keyword planner and looking at search trends can help you find topics of high search volume that may not be well served by current pages.

Louisiana State Plumbing Code requires that a clean out must be installed where the main sewer line leaves the house. These clean outs often get covered up under a flower bed because it was installed at or below ground level. This clean out location accounts for 50% of main sewer problems in Sugar Land.
One of the reasons causing main sewer problems is roots. When there are plants or trees there are roots. If a fitting is not properly glued or assembled, moisture will seep out attracting roots.
Mock Plumbing strongly recommends installing all sewer clean outs high enough not to get covered up by any landscaping. Lastly, always use a sch. 40 PVC pipe for main sewer lines.

Firefighters in Summerland responded to a house fire in Trout Creek on Wednesday evening.

Dec. 22, 2016 6:00 a.m.
Firefighters in Summerland, with the assistance of the B.C. Safety Authority/electrical inspector, are continuing to investigate a house fire in Trout Creek.
The fire department received the call Wednesday at 8:04 p.m. and a total of 15 firefighters responded to the fire on Woods Avenue.
Fire chief Glenn Noble said the fire is not suspicious and is believed to be the result of electrical issues.
Noble said the fire was mainly in the attic. While the house has had extensive modifications over the years, the original building was constructed in 1954 and still has sawdust installation.
During the firefighting efforts, one firefighter slipped on an icy patch and separated his shoulder. He was taken to the Penticton Regional Hospital and released at 2:30 a.m.
Crews remained at the scene overnight to ensure the fire did not spread into the sawdust insulation.

Drink-driving conviction quashed for man with fractured ribs
A man convicted of drink driving who suffered fractured ribs and a broken collarbone in police custody has had his conviction quashed. Photo/File
A man convicted of drink driving who suffered fractured ribs and a broken collarbone in police custody has had his conviction quashed.
A just-released Court of Appeal decision also expresses concern that the man suffered serious injuries while unlawfully in custody, and suggests the case be referred to "appropriate authorities" for investigation.
Ragulan Yoganathan was prosecuted in the Manukau District Court in 2015 for driving under the influence of alcohol.
He was disqualified for six months from holding or obtaining a driver's licence.
He unsuccessfully appealed to the High Court, before taking the case to the Court of Appeal.
On the night he was arrested, police asked Yoganathan to undergo a passive breath test, which recorded a level of alcohol in excess of 400mcg per litre of breath, the decision says.
The legal limit is 250mcg.
When asked to accompany a police constable to the station, he "did not readily" comply, so was forcibly removed from his car and handcuffed.
He suffered a broken collarbone and three fractured ribs, but the constable said Yoganathan's injuries were of his own account.
Police said he fell "face forward to the ground" while in the escort hold, as if "he were dead weight".
At the Manukau police station he was asked to undergo breath screening procedures, the decision says.
Police said it couldn't be completed, so they asked a medical practitioner to be called in.
A doctor arrived to assess Yoganathan's capability to drive. He said on arrival he found Yoganathan behaving strangely, on the floor calling for a Ventolin inhaler.
Yoganathan refused to walk on his own, only walking on his knees, the decision says.
He declined the doctor's request to undertake a physical examination.
The Court of Appeal accepted there was insufficient evidence that the police constable made Yoganathan aware of the need to accompany him immediately following the positive result from the breath screening test.
The officer's evidence was simply that he requested Yoganathan to accompany him and, in the absence of a response or comment, he physically removed him from the car.
The court also concluded Yoganathan's consumption of alcohol was not in dispute, but on its own, did not establish the charge.
Police evidence that Yoganathan's speech was slurred and eyes bloodshot carried "little weight" considering the street was dark.
The court said a screening test was "simply that", and was not a reliable guide as to intoxication, as it is a preliminary process.
The Court of Appeal set aside Yoganathan's drink-driving charge.
It added that the events that followed Yoganathan's unlawful detention were "a cause of considerable concern".
They raised questions about the circumstances in which he suffered serious injuries while unlawfully in police custody.
The court assumed the Crown Law Office would refer its judgment for further consideration by the appropriate authorities.
Spokeswoman Michelle Brown for the Solicitor-General confirmed the Crown Law Office had followed up the judgment, however any further queries were "for the New Zealand police to respond to".
A police spokeswoman said the matter was referred to police on Thursday.
"[It's] now the subject of internal inquiries, which we cannot comment on while the matter is ongoing".

Series: The Radio Art Hour
Subtitle: A show where art is not just on the radio, but is the radio.
Featured Speakers/Commentators: Introductions from Philip Grant, Tom Roe, and Galen Joseph-Hunter.
Summary: Welcome to "The Radio Art Hour," a show where art is not just on the radio, but is the radio. "The Radio Art Hour" draws from the Wave Farm Broadcast Radio Art Archive, an online resource that aims to identify, coalesce, and celebrate historical and contemporary international radio artworks made by artists around the world, created specifically for terrestrial AM/FM broadcast, whether it be via commercial, public, community, or independent transmission. Come on a journey with us as radio artists explore broadcast radio space through poetic resuscitations and playful celebrations/subversions of the complex relationship between senders and receivers in this hour of radio about radio as an art form. "The Radio Art Hour" features introductions from Philip Grant and Tom Roe, and from Wave Farm Radio Art Fellows Karen Werner and Jess Speer. The Conet Project's recordings of numbers radio stations serve as interstitial sounds. Go to wavefarm.org for more information about "The Radio Art Hour" and Wave Farm's Radio Art Archive.
Credits: Two works this week from the New American Radio archives. Melody Sumner Carnahan with Laetitia Sonami and Marie Goyette contribute "Manananggal" and Diamanda Gals adds "Schrei 27." Carnahan's story is about two powerful women who come under each other's influence, thereby releasing unconscious contents. Each begins to see the other as evil, bringing to life a type of vampire "a woman who can cut her body in half"the once-metaphorical beast known in Philippine folklore as "the manananggal." During the unraveling of their history, the two women again draw close, the leitmotif of each is firmly underscored as she projects onto the other woman emotions and elemental forces she has repressed in herself. Originally commissioned for stage by STEIM in Amsterdam. Commissioned by New American Radio. Then, Diamanda Gals and her "Schrei 27." It consists of several short performances over the space of twenty-seven minutes alternating extreme high-energy vocal work with absolute silence. The performances are chapters of a confession which might have been induced through a chemical or mechanical manipulation of the brain. There is a high density of speech-sound over time which is often machine-like in its velocity. The work employs the atypical speech and vocal signal processing that Gals has been researching since 1979. A co-commission of the Walker Art Center (Minneapolis) and New American Radio.
Notes: Wave Farm is a non-profit arts organization driven by experimentation with broadcast media and the airwaves. A pioneer of the Transmission Arts genre, Wave Farm programs provide access to transmission technologies and support artists and organizations that engage with media as an art form. Major activities include the Wave Farm Artist Residency Program; Transmission Art Archive; WGXC 90.7-FM: Radio for Open Ears, a creative community radio station based in New Yorks Upper Hudson Valley; a Fiscal Sponsorship program; and the Media Arts Assistance Fund in partnership with NYSCA Electronic Media/Film. Each episode of this series is evergreen. Episode 036. THIS SHOW IS EVERGREEN.

Medicaid Fee-for-Service is a state-specific program. Coverage for INVEGA TRINZA® may depend on the indication as well as other factors. As this information varies by state, it is important to contact the state agency directly or consult its Web site to obtain product-specific coverage and other information.
INVEGA TRINZA® (paliperidone palmitate) a 3‑month injection, is an atypical antipsychotic indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia in patients after they have been adequately treated with INVEGA SUSTENNA® (1‑month paliperidone palmitate) for at least four months.
INVEGA SUSTENNA® (paliperidone palmitate) is an atypical antipsychotic indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia in adults.
WARNING: INCREASED MORTALITY IN ELDERLY PATIENTS WITH DEMENTIA‑RELATED PSYCHOSIS.
Elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with antipsychotic drugs are at an increased risk of death. INVEGA SUSTENNA® and INVEGA TRINZA® are not approved for use in patients with dementia-related psychosis.
Contraindications: INVEGA TRINZA® and INVEGA SUSTENNA® are contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to either paliperidone, risperidone, or to any excipients of their formulation.
Cerebrovascular Adverse Reactions: Cerebrovascular adverse reactions (e.g., stroke, transient ischemic attacks), including fatalities, were reported at a higher incidence in elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis taking risperidone, aripiprazole, and olanzapine compared to placebo. No studies have been conducted with oral paliperidone, INVEGA SUSTENNA®, or INVEGA TRINZA® in elderly patients with dementia. These medications are not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis.
Orthostatic Hypotension and Syncope: INVEGA TRINZA® and INVEGA SUSTENNA® may induce orthostatic hypotension in some patients due to its alpha-adrenergic blocking activity. INVEGA TRINZA® and INVEGA SUSTENNA® should be used with caution in patients with known cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease or conditions that would predispose patients to hypotension (e.g., dehydration, hypovolemia, treatment with antihypertensive medications). Monitoring should be considered in patients for whom this may be of concern.
Falls: Somnolence, postural hypotension, motor and sensory instability have been reported with the use of antipsychotics, including INVEGA TRINZA® and INVEGA SUSTENNA®, which may lead to falls and, consequently, fractures or other fall-related injuries. For patients, particularly the elderly, with diseases, conditions, or medications that could exacerbate these effects, assess the risk of falls when initiating antipsychotic treatment and recurrently for patients on long-term antipsychotic therapy.
Leukopenia, Neutropenia and Agranulocytosis have been reported with antipsychotics, including INVEGA TRINZA® and INVEGA SUSTENNA®. In patients with a history of clinically significant low white blood cell count (WBC)/absolute neutrophil count (ANC) or drug-induced leukopenia/neutropenia, perform a complete blood count frequently during the first few months of therapy. Consider discontinuing INVEGA TRINZA® and INVEGA SUSTENNA® at the first sign of a clinically significant decline in WBC in the absence of other causative factors. Monitor patients with clinically significant neutropenia for fever or other symptoms or signs of infection and treat promptly if such symptoms or signs occur. Discontinue INVEGA TRINZA® and INVEGA SUSTENNA® in patients with severe neutropenia (absolute neutrophil count <1000/mm3) and follow their WBC until recovery.
Hyperprolactinemia: As with other drugs that antagonize dopamine D2 receptors, INVEGA TRINZA® and INVEGA SUSTENNA® elevate prolactin levels, and the elevation persists during chronic administration. Paliperidone has a prolactin-elevating effect similar to risperidone, which is associated with higher levels of prolactin elevation than other antipsychotic agents.
Potential for Cognitive and Motor Impairment: Somnolence, sedation, and dizziness were reported as adverse reactions in subjects treated with INVEGA TRINZA® and INVEGA SUSTENNA®. INVEGA TRINZA® and INVEGA SUSTENNA® have the potential to impair judgment, thinking, or motor skills. Patients should be cautioned about performing activities that require mental alertness such as operating hazardous machinery, including motor vehicles, until they are reasonably certain that INVEGA TRINZA® and INVEGA SUSTENNA® do not adversely affect them.
Seizures: INVEGA TRINZA® and INVEGA SUSTENNA® should be used cautiously in patients with a history of seizures or with conditions that potentially lower seizure threshold. Conditions that lower seizure threshold may be more prevalent in patients 65 years or older.
Administration: For intramuscular injection only by a healthcare professional using only the needles provided in the INVEGA TRINZA® or INVEGA SUSTENNA® kits. Care should be taken to avoid inadvertent injection into a blood vessel.
Drug Interactions: Strong CYP3A4/P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inducers: Avoid using a strong inducer of CYP3A4 and/or P-gp (e.g., carbamazepine, rifampin, St John's Wort) during a dosing interval for INVEGA TRINZA® or INVEGA SUSTENNA®. If administering a strong inducer is necessary, consider managing the patient using paliperidone extended-release tablets.
Pregnancy/Nursing: INVEGA TRINZA® and INVEGA SUSTENNA® may cause extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms in neonates with third trimester exposure. Advise patients to notify their healthcare professional if they become pregnant or intend to become pregnant during treatment with INVEGA TRINZA® or INVEGA SUSTENNA®. Patients should be advised that there is a pregnancy registry that monitors outcomes in women exposed to INVEGA TRINZA® or INVEGA SUSTENNA® during pregnancy. INVEGA TRINZA® and INVEGA SUSTENNA® can pass into human breast milk. The benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for INVEGA TRINZA® or INVEGA SUSTENNA® and any potential adverse effect on the breastfed infant from INVEGA TRINZA® or INVEGA SUSTENNA® or the mother's underlying condition.
Commonly Observed Adverse Reactions for INVEGA SUSTENNA®: The most common adverse reactions in clinical trials in patients with schizophrenia (incidence ≥ 5% and occurring at least twice as often as placebo) were injection site reactions, somnolence/sedation, dizziness, akathisia and extrapyramidal disorder.
Please see full Prescribing Information, including Boxed WARNING, for INVEGA SUSTENNA®.

SUNDAY'S GOLF: Homa wins Wells Fargo for first PGA Tour title
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Two years after Max Homa played only one Sunday in an entire PGA Tour season, he showed his mettle at Quail Hollow by closing with a 4-under 67 to pull away from the field and win the Wells Fargo Championship.
Homa began the back nine with two birdies to build a four-shot lead and didn't make any mistakes until it only affected the final margin.
Joel Dahmen saved par with a tough chip over the creek for a 70 and finished three shots behind.
Homa, who won the NCAA title at Cal in 2013, won for the first time in his 68th start as a pro. The victory gets him into the PGA Championship in two weeks at Bethpage Black and the Masters next April.
But what a turnaround for the 28-year-old Californian.
Homa was at No. 829 in the world when he got his third crack at the PGA Tour in October. Two seasons ago, he made only two cuts in 17 tournaments, missing the 54-hole cut in one of them and finishing last at an opposite-field event in the other.
But he made six of seven cuts coming into Quail Hollow, and played like he belonged. Homa never flinched, effectively sealing it with a long shot up the hill and onto the green at the par-5 15th for a two-putt birdie, saving par to keep a three-shot lead going to the final hole and drilling his tee shot down the fairway. He wrapped it up with a 10-foot par putt to finish at 15-under 269.
The victory was worth $1,422,000 — about $454,000 more than he had made in his previous 67 starts — and gives him a two-year exemption, along with a tee time at Bethpage Black in two weeks. The only other major Homa played was the 2013 U.S. Open at Merion, a month after his NCAA title.
Dahmen held his own until costly bogeys around the turn. But that chip was on the 18th for par to finish alone in second meant a difference of $158,000.
Justin Rose (68) finished alone in third and moved ahead of Brooks Koepka to No. 2 in the world.
THE WOODLANDS, Texas — Scott McCarron won the Insperity Invitational for his 10th PGA Tour Champions victory and second in three weeks.
The 53-year-old McCarron held off Scott Parel by two strokes, closing with a 5-under 67 to finish at 17-under 199 and match Fred Couples (2010) for the best score since the event moved to The Woodlands Country Club in 2008.
McCarron won the Mitsubishi Electric Classic two weeks ago in Georgia, then teamed with Brandt Jobe to tie for fifth last week in Missouri in the Bass Pro Shops Legends of Golf . The former UCLA player who won three times on the PGA Tour.
Parel shot a 66. He also finished second last month in Mississippi, losing to Kevin Sutherland on the seventh hole of a playoff.
After Parel birdied the par-5 15th to pull within a stroke, McCarron hit a 6-iron to a foot for birdie on the par-3 16th to push the advantage back to two shots. Parel missed a chance to pull within one on the par-4 17th when his 3-foot birdie putt caught the left edge and lipped out.
Both players parred the par-4 18th, with Parel forced to scramble after driving well left off a cart path and nearly into a garbage basket.
McCarron took a three-stroke lead into the final round, overcoming a stiff neck to shoot 67-65 in a 34 1/2-hole Saturday after most of the play Friday was wiped out because of lightning and heavy rain.
McCarron earned $330,000 and increased his lead in the season-long Charles Schwab Cup standings.
SHENZHEN, China — Mikko Korhonen of Finland overcame a three-shot deficit with a 6-under 66 and beat Benjamin Hebert in a playoff with an 8-foot birdie putt in the Volvo China Open.
The victory moves Korhonen into the top 100 in the world and is likely to earn another trip to the PGA Championship in New York.
Two shots behind at the turn, Korhonen birdied two straight holes to catch Hebert, and Hebert had to birdie the last at Genzon Golf Club for a 69 to force the playoff. They finished at 20-under 268.
Korhonen won for the second straight year on the European Tour. He won last year at the Shot Clock Masters.
Jorge Campillo of Spain, coming off a victory last week in Morocco, shot a 67 and missed the playoff by one shot.
China's Kuang Yang closed with a 73 to tie for 55th. He was the second-youngest player (14 years, 6 months, 12 days) to make the cut in in a European Tour event. The record belongs to Guan Tianglang, who was a month younger when he made the cut in the 2013 Masters.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Robby Shelton won the Nashville Golf Open Benefitting the Snedeker Foundation for his first Web.com Tour victory, beating Scottie Scheffler with a birdie on the first hole of a playoff.
Shelton, the 23-year-old former Alabama player, also birdied the par-5 18th in regulation to match Scheffler at 15-under 273 at Nashville Golf & Athletic Club. He bogeyed the first holes after taking a three-stroke lead into the final round.
Scheffler shot 64. He bogeyed the 18th in regulation after playing the previous four holes in 5 under with an eagle and three birdies.
Henrik Norlander was a stroke back after a 69.
Katsumasa Miyamoto closed with a 1-under 69 for a one-shot victory over Shugo Imahira at The Crowns on the Japan Golf Tour. ... Taehee Lee closed with an even-par 71 and beat Janne Kaske on the third hole of a playoff to win the GS Caltex Maekyung Open on the Asian Tour. Both players made a double bogey and then a bogey on the 18th hole in a playoff before Lee won with a birdie. ... Antoine Rozner of France played the back nine in 5 under to cap off a 6-under 66 for a four-shot victory in the Challenge de Espana for his first victory on the Challenge Tour. ... Martin Rowher completed a wire-to-wire victory with 11 points in the modified Stableford scoring system to win the Investec Royal Swazi Open over Steve Surry and Jake Roos on the Sunshine Tour. ... Chile's Cristobal Del Solar won the PGA Tour Latinoamerica's Puerto Plata Open in the Dominican Republic, closing with a 2-under 69 for a one-stroke victory over American Scott Wolfes. ... Nuria Iturrios of Spain won her second straight Ladies European Tour title by closing with a 1-under 71 in the inaugural Omega Dubai Moonlight Classic. The tournament, which ended Friday, featured players competing in one of the two opening rounds under special LED lights. ... So Yeon Park closed with a 1-under 71 for a one-shot victory over Min Kyung Choi and Min Ji Park in the KyoChon Honey Ladies Open on the Korean LPGA Tour. ... Minami Katsu shot a 5-under 67 and beat Mi-Jeong Jeon of South Korea (66) in a playoff in the Panasonic Open Ladies Golf on the Japan LPGA Tour.

I am writing you, to say, in my opinion, that you have on your staff, two of the most outstanding, professional people. Their integrity and quality of management of my file was above reproach.
Lily Sider in particular, kept me continually informed, even after working hours, on my slip/fall litigation, and the final settlement – just excellent service.
In my humble opinion, they deserve a promotion, and if called upon, I would most certainly recommend your Law Firm to anyone seeking legal advice and assistance.
Would you also pass my appreciation onto the individuals noted above, please.

At 4:30 Saturday afternoon, the Portland girls' tennis team entered uncharted waters.
Junior Liza Iselborn put the finishing touches on her 6-3, 7-6 (3) victory over McAuley junior Julia Haverty when Haverty hit a shot into the net, giving the Bulldogs their third point en route to a 4-1 home win over the Lions, sending Portland to its first regional final in program history.
The top-ranked Bulldogs will meet No. 2 Gorham Wednesday at 4:15 p.m. at Bates College with a trip to the state final on the line.
Elsewhere, Deering's girls fell in the quarterfinals, 4-1 at Gorham.
In Western C, Waynflete's hopes of another regional final date with rival/nemesis and defending state champion North Yarmouth Academy were dashed Saturday after a 3-2 loss to Dirigo in the semifinals.
On the boys' side, defending Class C champion Waynflete continues to crush all comers, cruising to the regional final and setting up a date with Monmouth Wednesday.
In Western A, Deering and Portland were ousted in the preliminary round. Cheverus, meanwhile, made it to the semifinals before losing at top-ranked Windham.
After falling 3-2 to Deering in last year's semifinals, the Portland girls didn't graduate anybody and regained senior Audrey Seiz (who missed 2008 with injury). While the Bulldogs were expected to be in the hunt this spring, few thought they'd dominate to the tune of a 12-0 regular season (which was two more wins than any team had managed in program history) and the top seed.
Portland quickly disposed of No. 8 South Portland 5-0 in the quarterfinal round, then turned its attention to what was expected to be a fight to the finish against No. 5 McAuley (a 5-0 winner at No. 4 Windham in its quarterfinal) Saturday.
The teams had met four previous times in the playoffs with the Lions winning three. On May 26, in the regular season finale, Portland eked out a 3-2 win. Saturday, while all five matches were close, the Bulldogs continued their magical run.
First Portland took both doubles matches as juniors Corey Carmichael and Maggie Eismeier beat McAuley junior Danielle LaCasse and sophomore Paige Hickey 6-3 and 6-2 and Seiz and senior Greer Chapman downed Lions senior Catherine Tracy and sophomore Nicki Connolly 6-4 and 6-4.
While Bulldogs senior Maggie Swann and Lions senior Erin Woodbury were engaged in a three-set battle at first singles and Portland junior Mary Moran and McAuley freshman Addie Devine still had unfinished business at No. 2 singles, Iselborn had a chance to close out the match versus Haverty.
Iselborn won the first set, then the two went back-and-forth in the second, necessitating a tiebreaker. Iselborn quickly seized control, then put her team in the record books with the win.
At the same time, Swann was capping an epic comeback against Woodbury. Swann lost 2-6 in the first set and was down 2-5 and faced match point in the second set, but rallied to win, 7-5. Swann then finished the dramatic rally with a 6-4 third set win.
"It was match point in the second set, but I really didn't want to lose," Swann said. "I played her last year and lost and played her earlier this year and won a set. I've done better each time. I'm very competitive. I used my competitive edge to win. Some of it was luck and some of it was forgetting I was tired.
Devine then won McAuley's only point, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4 over Moran, to account for the 4-1 final score.
"It's so exciting," said Portland coach Bonnie Moran, Mary's mother. "I was hoping for a 3-2 win again. I thought it could go either way. We're well matched. I was confident, but they gave us a run for our money this first time. I thought three singles would be easier. I was hoping Maggie could do it. I'm so happy for her. She never gives up.
Way back on May 4, the Bulldogs won 3-2 at Gorham. The teams have no prior playoff history.
Despite losing Tracy and Woodbury, McAuley could be the favorite in 2010.
Deering went 8-4 this year and earned the No. 7 seed in Western A. The Rams beat visiting No. 10 Kennebunk 4-1 in the preliminary round, then lost 4-1 at No. 2 Gorham to finish 9-5.
Cheverus went 2-10 this year and failed to make the playoffs.
In Western C, Waynflete went 10-2 in the regular season, which gave them the No. 4 seed. In the quarterfinals, the Flyers held off No. 5 Dirigo, 3-2, but couldn't handle Winthrop Saturday, losing 3-2, despite victories from seniors Christine Ordway at first seniors and Mariam Qazi at No. 3 singles. The first singles match came down to a third set, but seniors Liza Hall and Ellie Hallett fell 6-2, 4-6, 5-7.
On the boys' side, Waynflete appears to be the strongest team in the state regardless of class. After a 12-0 regular season, the Flyers earned the top seed in Western C and promptly eliminated No. 8 St. Dom's, 4-1, and No. 5 Georges Valley, 5-0, to move into the regional final against Monmouth, a squad Waynflete doesn't face in the regular season. A year ago, the Flyers beat Monmouth 5-0 in the regional final.
Cheverus, Deering and Portland weren't as fortunate.
The Stags went 10-2 this year and earned the No. 5 seed. After winning 4-1 at No. 4 Westbrook, Cheverus had its quest for another improbable regional crown come to an end with Saturday's 5-0 setback at Windham. The Stags (11-3) will give it another shot next year.
Deering finished 6-6 and earned the No. 9 seed. The Rams had to go to No. 8 Kennebunk and was eliminated 4-1 to wind up 6-7.
Portland went 4-8 this year, but got into the playoffs as the 10th and final seed. The Bulldogs were then ousted, 4-1, at No. 7 Thornton Academy to finish 4-9.

I skipped my Pilates class this morning and instead I decided to play a little bit in my craft room. I had so much fun that I decided to make two cards using the same stamp :-) I used some challenges as inspiration so they were fairly easy to make.
The butterfly was stamped again over a scrap piece of inked card stock, then fussy cut using my Cutterbee scissors . I mounted the image panel onto Melon Mambo card stock, then Neenah Linen textured card stock and then onto Stampin Up's retired bashful blue card stock. I finished off the card by going over the butterfly with a Wink of Stella glitter brush in clear glitter to add just a hint of sparkle. Of course as usual, it's hard to see the shimmer on the picture here... Two sticky pearls finish off the card.
The colors for this card were inspired by this week's Color Throwdown challenge.
For my second card I used the same stamp by Penny Black - Botanical Notes , this time I heat embossed the image using white detail embossing powder on Bristol Vellum card stock. The image was colored using my Zig Clean Color real brush pens and Zig Detailer Watercolor Brush .
I framed/cut out the image panel using my new Wonky Stitches die set. The banner is part of this set and I used Penny Black's clear set Snippets for the sentiment. I was able to bend the sentiment the way I wanted it to appear on the banner. To finish off the card I added some Wink of Stella in clear again and tied a bow using Jute Twine in Parrot Green.

Two completely different cards made with the same stamp. Which one do you like more? I am leaning towards the first card, somehow I just like the stamping with black ink more. I feel like the pretty image is getting lost a little bit when stamped in white.
Thanks so much for visiting! Enjoy the rest of your week, and hope to see you again on Saturday when I share my card for the new Allsorts challenge!
These are GORGEOUS! LOVING the flowers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Both very beautiful cards, love your watercoloring.
Oh these are so beautiful and they make me yearn for spring on this frigid cold day!
Thanks a lot for playing with us at The Corrosive Challenge Blog.
LOVE the stamps and your design BOTH ways. My favourite is your first one, the black against the delicate colours with the pop of dimension with the butterfly is especially delightful!
I just love your soft coloring! Thank you so much for playing along with us at the Color Throwdown this week!
Both cards are beautiful. I love the flowers. So glad you shared over at Inspiration Destination.

M&C Saatchi Asia creative chairman exits
Ben Welsh, creative chairman of M&C Saatchi Asia, has moved to DDB Australia to take on the role of chief creative officer.
Welsh took on the creative chairman role with M&C Saatchi in October last year to focus on pitching for both international and national brands in each region. He was handling markets such as Singapore, New Delhi, Kuala Lumpur, Shanghai and Tokyo, while being based in Australia.
He was also tasked to growing and developing the creative output of the agencies. According to M&C Saatchi, the appointment of Welsh marks a change in emphasis for the Network as Asia changes dramatically in recent years.
Marketing has reached out to M&C Saatchi for a comment on his replacement.
Meanwhile CEO of DDB Group Australia, Andrew Little, said: "Welsch is such a great person and the perfect creative leader for our agency as we look to continue our creative trajectory. I know our Exec Team and Creative Partners are excited to have him on board and I have every confidence that under Ben's leadership, our agency will continue to deliver world-class work across the portfolio of fantastic brands we have within the building."
Welsh (pictured) said, "Some of the best people I've ever worked with are at DDB Group Sydney. It's a standout office, in one of the world's great networks, and the time is right for me to return to DDB."

These are the top states for families in 2022 – is your state one of them?
There's no denying it: 2022 has been a year for the books.
The Biden Administration introduced a host of dangerous policies. Title IX turned 50. Gas prices reached an all-time high. And of course, Roe v. Wade was overturned!
But even as all of that was happening on the national front, leaders in states around the nation were hard at work to protect life, promote parental rights, and make their states places where families could thrive.
That's why this week, we're pleased to announce the winners of our annual Craig's List Awards – an award series named for our CEO and President Craig DeRoche and given to states making valiant pro- family efforts around the country. And this year, for the first time ever, we're inviting YOU to join us for the awards ceremony, where we'll publicly announce the winners! Receiving the awards on behalf of each state will be leaders from family policy councils, premier pro-family organizations in the states. Family Policy Alliance is pleased to host the alliance of family policy councils!
TOMORROW, we'll announce the winners of:
Life Champion Award – given to states that banned or nearly banned abortions following the historic overturn of Roe v. Wade
Save Girls' Sports Award – these states passed laws ensuring that girls' sports are just for girls!
Clean Sweep Award – given to a state where pro-family candidates won across the board in this year's primary election
Best Team Effort – given to a state whose parents banded together to protect their children!
Biggest Upset Award – awarded to a state with one of the most surprising and attention-grabbing wins of the last year!
Facing the Giants Award – awarded to a state that fought back against a dangerous ideology and won!
Defensive Play of the Year – awarded to a state whose leaders admirably stopped an effort that would have endangered children.
Victory of the Year – given to a state with a win so notable it had mainstream media upset for weeks!
And of course, come to learn which state is the 2022 Most Pro-Family State of the Year, a title given to a state whose leaders made significant across-the-board progress for families. Is it your state? Or think you know which state it should be?
JOIN US TOMORROW TO FIND OUT!
Annual Craig's List Awards: Unveiling Ceremony
11:30 a.m. ET / 10:30 a.m. CT / 9:30 a.m. MT / 8:30 a.m. PT

Sunday Firesides: Never Criticize Without Offering an Alternative
During World War II, General Dwight D. Eisenhower would have his staff study certain problems and then present their conclusions to those who were specialists in that particular area. Sometimes, a member of the latter group would disagree with the recommended action. "But this was not acceptable to General Eisenhower," one of the men close to him remembered, "who held that to disagree in itself was insufficient unless the officer so disposed could come up with something better. Therefore a more adequate plan had to be submitted when disapproval was recommended."
To criticize without offering an alternative is too easy.
It's easier to demolish than construct. It's easier to find the holes in things than to figure out how to patch them up.
Those who take the "I don't know what else to do, I just know I don't like this" position often do in fact have an alternative plan in mind, though not always consciously. Somewhere in their mind they believe there's a possible arrangement to be made that doesn't involve any of the sacrifices, trade-offs, and compromises that any practical, real-world solution invariably demands.
Being asked to generate this kind of realistic solution requires letting go of the childlike fantasy in which one can have all upside and no downside. It requires really digging into an issue, developing a depth of understanding that goes beyond drive-by feedback. As the officer quoted above observed, by mandating that any critique be coupled with a counterproposal, Ike's policy "made for more careful scrutiny and analysis."
It makes for a neat sorting mechanism as well.
He who isn't willing to demonstrate this level of investment, to put skin in the game, to show readiness to formulate criticism that is not just destructive, but creative, forfeits his seat at the decision-making table.

CapitaLand launches 'office of the future' ecosystem featuring core-flex model
CapitaLand today initiated its 'office of the future' strategy aimed at engendering a culture of innovation, promoting talent attraction and retention and optimising cost efficiency for tenants of its office properties. While coworking spaces currently aim to fulfil these objectives, they are typically standalone spaces targeted at a specific pool of tenants. CapitaLand's 'office of the future' strategy involves integrating a building's conventional office space (core) and flexible space (flex) – of which coworking space is one of the types – into an ecosystem of innovative workplace solutions that are community-driven, tech-enabled and provide value-add for all tenants. Under CapitaLand's core-flex model, conventional office tenants will have any new, flexible requirements met while small and medium enterprises in coworking spaces could choose to lease conventional workspaces as they grow. Capital Tower and Asia Square Tower 2 will be the first two office buildings in Singapore to embrace CapitaLand's core-flex offerings.
To effectively operate the flexible spaces and tap on the growing pool of coworking tenants, CapitaLand has invested S$27 million for a 50% stake in coworking operator, The Work Project. Combining the flexible spaces at Capital Tower and Asia Square Tower 2, as well as The Work Project's current offerings in Singapore and Hong Kong, a total area of 177,000 square feet (sq ft) of flexible spaces will be initially available to complement CapitaLand's core-flex offerings to tenants. As The Work Project expands its footprint across Asia-Pacific, which is not limited to CapitaLand's existing properties, more flexible spaces will be added to meet the needs of tenants' mobile workforce.
Mr Lucas Loh, President (China & Investment Management) of CapitaLand Group, who also has oversight responsibilities of the Group's commercial operating platform, said: "As the global workforce becomes more mobile and the demand for flexible work arrangements rises, office tenants require dynamic work spaces and customer-centric workplace solutions that promote productivity, improve staff retention and encourage an innovation culture. To build our 'office of the future' ecosystem, CapitaLand is going beyond traditional property management to providing more value-add services and community experiences for our office tenants. We believe this strategy will serve as a key differentiator from other office landlords and ensure that CapitaLand's workplace offerings continue to be conducive for and complementary to tomorrow's consumers and economy."
Ms Lynette Leong, CEO of CapitaLand Commercial, said: "In the future of work economy where agility, value-add services and exceptional experiences are king, we must continue to innovate and enlarge our workplace offerings with tenant-centric solutions. In this regard, CapitaLand has been seeking opportunities to forge new strategic alliances that complement our core strengths as landlord and operator. We are pleased to find a partner in The Work Project, who shares our vision of a tech-enabled, data-informed future of work blueprint. The partnership will support our core-flex offerings and augment our operational capabilities, while generating a new income stream for CapitaLand."
On top of coworking spaces in Capital Tower and Asia Square Tower 2, Capital Tower will feature an exclusive members-only club, collaboration spaces for project teams and the first movie theatre in the CBD. The showsuite for the upcoming CapitaSpring will be located in Capital Tower, so that prospective tenants can experience first-hand future of work and Internet-of-Things technologies such as facial recognition access and work space personalisation.
Fit-out works for the new offerings at Capital Tower and Asia Square Tower 2 are scheduled for completion in the first quarter of 2019. An app and a tenant portal, which enable tenants to book flexible spaces and participate in business and social networking programmes, will also be ready by then.
CapitaLand's office portfolio in Singapore comprises primarily those owned by CapitaLand Commercial Trust. With a total net lettable area of approximately 4.3 million sq ft, the office properties are Capital Tower, Asia Square Tower 2, CapitaGreen, Six Battery Road, 21 Collyer Quay, One George Street, Raffles City Tower and the upcoming CapitaSpring in Raffles Place.

Rodrigo Red Sandoval: From the Periphery
by Andrea García Cuevas
"I like the uncertainty that breaks the boundaries of disciplines and the language with which we approach things."
""I handle my practice from the periphery of disciplines as an anti designer, an anti artist and an anti architect."
"The periphery allows you to see things from a distance. However, the artist's discipline is among all the most labyrinthine one"
"Ludopatía ll", Rodrigo Red Sandoval, 2013.
"Desestructuración", Rodrigo Red Sandoval, 2012.
"Fruit Tenants", Rodrigo Red Sandoval, 2014.
The practice of Rodrigo Red Sandoval is multidisciplinary, or more precisely, it is transdiciplinary[1]. In his work it seems there is no place for conventional or established definitions of design, art and architecture. To describe it, he suggests resorting to uncertainty, to that territory of interstices where not only the boundaries are erased, but gives way to a diversity of exchanges: "I like the uncertainty that breaks the boundaries of disciplines and the language with which we approach things."
Therefore, Red Sandoval (Mexico City, 1985) is not defined by the tools or values -aesthetic or conceptual- which he applies in each area to develop his projects. He is not an artist, designer or architect, quite the contrary. "I handle my practice from the periphery of disciplines as an anti designer, an anti artist and an anti architect. The periphery allows you to see things from a distance. However, the artist's discipline is among all the most labyrinthine one; it is difficult to reach the periphery of the city of art, when it seems that you are about to touch it you find yourself just at the center. It is extremely paradoxical", he explains.
The junction and transversal vision of Sandoval is mediated, perhaps, by his educational background. His education has been marked by artistic experience, technical rigor and analysis of thought, he is a visual artist. He studied industrial design, philosophy and art. This tour was meant to be a strategy in order to achieve the objectives pursued by his projects and to develop a theoretical framework that design did not provide.
Each discipline has allowed him to bring multiple perspectives to his work. However, it is in art where he has found a discursive and creative identity axis: "For me, the point of convergence is art. A work of art is a space that allows multilanguages: verbal, nonverbal or a combination of both. On the other hand, I am interested in design in its most basic sense, almost etymological, as a preparation for something that can be created; a starting point where the forms begin to be designed or intended in a prefigurative way."
In this context, and from the intersection of art and design, the creator has explored practically and conceptually one of his main interests: the space, "a dimension of human reality where we project meaning. There lives our memory, our consciousness. Without the space, our sense of individuality disappear, space embraces us physically and symbolically."
To approach that place of exchange, where the present subject is affected while building a sense of context, Sandoval has used the possibilities offered by the languages of sculpture, performance and architecture. If "the space and objects shape the individual and vice versa," then what is really important is the performance that movement and sculpture are able to detonate. This is evident in Desestructuración (2012), a sculptural piece which from the illusion of a puzzle, deconstructs any given space. Or in Something Sitting Somewhere (2014), where spatial comes at once real and abstract due to the performativity that can be exercised in the real and virtual worlds.
In Fruit Tenants (2014) –commissioned by Ángulo Cero-, Sandoval took as inspiration and principles two key aspects in the history of art and design: the metaphysical paintings of Giorgio de Chirico and the Italian movement Memphis from the 80's. These functional sculptures are small architectures that look like something out of a pictorial space traced by the Italian painter, where fruits exert the three-dimensional nature of the sculpture.
These pieces summarizes his interests, and project his perception about the relationship between the performative and the sculptural: "I enjoy to erase the barrier between performance and sculpture."
[1]Transdiscipline is an exercise where the boundaries of every field of knowledge involved in a process or an object, are inconceivable. In this context, languages and methodologies typical of each discipline are essential for a creative production.

Or the US-Chiang Kaishek Criminal Acts Exhibition Hall & SACO Prisons - some American might not like the name. It was used as a prison by Kuomingtang during the World War II and most prisoners were communists. It was one of Chongqing's popular tourist spots.
The formal name was "Sino-American Cooperation Organization (SACO)", set up in 1942 between the United States and Kuomingtang governments. The United States helped to train and dispatch secret agents for the Kuomingtang government. Displayed here are the restorations of the time: jail cells, red flag, clothing and bedding materials of the prisoners, chains, and other torture instruments.
There were some famous novels and movies describing the life in the prison. Most more than 30-year-old Chinese people are familiar with the stories. It is often mentioned together with the Red Cliff Village.


Want something warm and cute to cuddle with? Aroma Home has just the thing that's going to warm your child's heart and body too. The company sent us a Hot Hugs Hottie Tiger to review. Inside of this adorable tiger is an insert that you can put in the microwave to heat up. It only takes a minute to get it warm. After heating it, you would put the insert back to the stuffed toy for your child.
When DD is not feeling well, I found that cuddling with the warmed up tiger is very comforting to her. Even when the insert is not heated, it smells wonderful. The lavender scent is very calming -- so much so that it even makes me sleepy ;). The tiger itself is well made and the fabric is very soft too. We like it so much that we will be picking one up for baby G when he is older.

Moriarty, stunning 58′ Trad 2004 G&J Reeves, is a 58' 'go anywhere' traditional style narrowboat in beautiful condition, both inside & out. She was built by G&J Reeves in 2004 and has had only two owners from new. She has been loved and cherished by both of them – and it shows.
The well deck has a very good condition cratch cover with flexiglaze windows, and has storage under the seats. The carpet in here gives it a cosy feel and a nice entrance into the saloon. Fitted out in oak faced ply with sapele trim, the woodwork is first class and gives the boat a luxurious feel. The saloon is 10'7" long and has good storage space along with two leather captains swivel chairs, a footstool and a Bubble diesel stove. There is a TV / DVD combi in the corner.
The dinette follows. This is a lovely arrangement with side hatch, storage and a freezer under, and converts into a spare double berth.
The galley has another side hatch on the starboard side and also hosts a full size washing machine, eye level oven & grill, gas hob, a fridge and microwave. There is also storage a-plenty in this room. The sink has a filtered drinking tap.
The shower room is off the starboard corridor. The loo is a brand new (unopened) Porta Potti Cube with spare cassette, the basin is ceramic, the shower is glass doored and tiled and there is an airing cupboard next to the shower.
The bedroom is large at 9'5" and has lots of storage space in it. Under the bed, over it, cupboards and a wardrobe at the foot of the bed…it's all here. There is also another TV/DVD machine at the foot of the bed.
The aft cabin is last. A really useful room housing the engine (super cacooned & very quiet), and various cupboards. The electrics (including 3kw Victron inverter) are in here.
Lighting on board is all LED (including under gunwale lights in saloon & bedroom). There are 6 radiators on board (Eberspacher diesel fired) to supplement the Bubble stove if required, there are 100w of solar power charging the batteries, and a galvanic isolator on board.
She is such a charming boat, well loved, well looked after, and ready for immediate occupation whether it be for living aboard or a holiday boat. She is a credit to her current owners, and will be to the next.
