I had been struggling with my faith in abundance over the year of 2015. I could always hear God speak to me but I would never call out to him as I should. I remember sitting in Church and the preacher did a sermon based on Matthew 9. At the time I was still letting outside factors control my faith in God and although I may have cried a little because the sermon touched me, I still did not fully understand. So I went on as normal, just as I always did. I found myself only going halfway with God most of the time, instead of giving him my full attention or faith in him. So time went on. Maybe a month later or so I went to Church, this time it was a different Church. The same exact sermon based on Matthew 9 was preached again. Something hit me then, I could tell God was trying to speak directly to me and that hearing this sermon twice wasn't a coincidence. So at that time I decided to pray and call out to God. However, I still did not give him my full soul although it weighed on me not to. Once again time went on. Before long at different Churches, different times and different Preachers, I had heard this same exact sermon based upon this same Book in the Bible of Matthew 9. Sometime in 2015, I decided to rededicate my life to Christ. I felt as if this specific situation in the bible was calling out to me. But I strayed again. It is now December 2016 and sometime this year I have heard once again this same Book of Matthew and versus at least twice. Today on December 2 , 2016, as I randomly strolled youtube to watch a sermon, the sermon was once again on this same verse. This may seem redundant, it may even seem unbelievable. I cannot really explain the feelings that have come behind this. What I do know is that God really wanted me to understand what happened in Matthew 9 and relate it to my life. See in Matthew 9 there was a scorned woman with a past she wasn't proud of. For so long her faith had been tested and waivered more times than not. There is a part in Matthew 9 that tells how many people passed by Jesus but he did not acknowledge their touch. However, when this woman only touched the hem of his clothing he turned around and asked who touched him. Now this is ironic being that anyone could have touched him but there was a transferring of invisible power and need that transferred from her to him. In her touch, he felt a woman who was broken and in need of his healing. She had just enough faith to reach out to him and when he did he told her that he would make her whole. Once I understood this story I realized it was my story. For God wanted me to reach out to him. At the time he knew all that I had gone through but he was waiting for me to make the first move to be healed. Each time I heard this sermon I prayed and I felt a sense of weight lift off me. Each time God removed another barrier that blocked my sight of him and each time I was made a little more whole. I want you to understand that God has not left you. He knows everything you have gone through, he knows you are in need of healing. If you are like me you have a sense of shame because of some things in your past. You have tried hard to forgive yourself. You have tried hard to leave the situation alone. Your soul screams with the need for a spiritual release yet fear is holding you back. I am here to tell you that it is time to let go. If only you can reach out to God one time, if only you can call out his name and ask him for forgiveness. If only you can allow him to make you whole, then you can truly start to move forward. Do not let the weight of what you have done keep you from the goodness God has in store for you. We were created to make mistakes and sin, we were created with flaws. Yet he loves us unconditionally. God still loves you no matter what you have done or what you have gone through. All he needs is your hands to reach out to him. Open your soul up and cry out to him today. He is waiting on you.

The vegan diet incorporates whole, plant-based foods and eliminates animal products. The paleo diet is a regimen based on the idea that our bodies do best when fueled by foods that existed during the Paleolithic era, about 10,000 years ago. When both diets are combined, the pegan diet is born. The diets are built on the same foundation of the whole foods diet. Both vegan and paleo diets focus on foods that keep blood sugar stable and typically limit processed foods. Detoxification will result from following the pegan diet because it is inclusive, not exclusive. It is based on an abundance of low-glycemic fruits and vegetables, getting in essential vitamins and mineral.
Low glycemic foods have less of an impact on spikes in blood sugar. The lower a food's glycemic index, the less it affects blood sugar and levels of the hormone needed to manage it. It is essential to focus on pairing carbohydrates with protein and fats to decrease the impact on blood sugar. Nuts (almonds, walnuts, pecans) and seeds (flax, chia, hemp) are some great examples of healthy fats. Other options include avocados, olive oil, fatty fish, and coconut.

Virus pummels commercial real estate, could end long boom
By Joyce M. Rosenberg and Ken Sweet

NEW YORK — NEW YORK (AP) — Americans are likely to see more "for rent" signs in the coming months as many businesses devastated by the coronavirus pandemic abandon offices and storefronts and potentially end a long boom in the nation's commercial real estate market.
Hotels, restaurants and stores that closed in March have seen only a partial return of customers, and many may fail. Commercial landlords have already reported an increase in missed rent payments. They expect vacancies to rise through the end of the year.
Two trends compound the problem: Office tenants are considering renting less space as more employees work from home, and the trend toward online shopping is accelerating, which could cut already weak demand for retail space in downtown areas and malls.
The swift emptying of commercial space marks a sharp departure from the real estate market that boomed in New York, Chicago and other cities in recent years. The virus outbreak has encouraged businesses of all types to choose simplicity and convenience over the prestige of a big-city address.
The effect on landlords and local economies could be disastrous. A weak commercial real estate market can mean layoffs among its estimated 3.6 million workers and at companies providing goods and services to real estate firms. Moreover, a weak market attracts fewer investors, limiting construction activity.
"The outlook isn't good. There are going to be defaults and losses," said Matt Anderson, managing director of Trepp, a data and research firm.
One out of 5 loans tied to hotels is now delinquent, as are 1 in every 10 loans for retail properties, according to Trepp. Moody's Analytics forecasts a record office vacancy rate of 19.4% by the end of the year, up from 16.8% last year.
In the Atlanta suburb of Marietta, several tenants in Bruce Ailion's office buildings want to downsize because their business has contracted due to the virus. He's trying to keep as many tenants as possible by reducing their monthly payments and allowing them to pay over longer periods of time. But even that may not be enough.
"If their business does not recover, we will look at termination provisions or downsizing," Ailion said.
Still, some real estate experts and landlords see this as just another boom-and-bust cycle, although the bust is happening at lightning speed. The next question is: How soon does the pandemic fade? When employees return to offices, they will presumably go to restaurants, make quick shopping trips and rent hotel rooms while traveling for business. That will determine how rapidly the real estate market recovers.
For now, landlords will see their income decline sharply. Average office rents are expected to fall 10.5% nationally this year, according to Moody's Analytics. Average retail rents are expected to fall 2.7% nationwide in 2020, and another 1.2% next year, surpassing declines seen during the Great Recession.
Dan Bailey decided to give up his Austin, Texas, office a month after his staffers began working remotely.
"I only have a few who have any interest in going back to the office, and I can't justify the costs to keep them there," said Bailey, whose company, Wikilawn, operates a website where homeowners can find lawn care. He will not renew his lease in October, potentially saving $5,800 a month.
Concerns about a future pandemic are likely to prompt some employers to move from densely populated urban areas to the suburbs, said Victor Calanog, a real estate economist at Moody's.
But real estate professor Glenn Mueller expects that even as some companies leave, others will need extra space to make their offices more conducive to social distancing. The net effect will be to require the same amount of space, said Mueller, who teaches at the University of Denver's Daniels College of Business.
And while some of the changes in commercial real estate could be permanent, Calanog expects the overall market to do what it always does — recover. A similar scenario played out after many companies fled New York following the 2001 attack on the World Trade Center. Manhattan eventually regained its appeal, and the office market boomed.
"It will bounce back as soon as the world normalizes, but not as quick as some optimists say," Calanog said. "You don't just flick the light switch on again."
The same trajectory can be expected for restaurant space. Broker Stephen Siegel expects thousands of restaurants across the country to fail.
"It will be a year or two before the restaurant market comes back, before everyone feels comfortable again," said Siegel, head of the brokerage division of real estate firm CBRE.
History shows there will likely be a new wave of chefs and entrepreneurs ready to fill empty spaces. In 2006, before the previous recession, the Census Bureau counted over 549,000 restaurants and bars in the country. By 2010, when the industry was still struggling to recover, that number had fallen to nearly 519,000. But by 2017, the most recent data available, there were nearly 658,000.
The outlook for the retail market is darker. Moody's predicts retail vacancies will hit a record 14.6% by the end of 2021. And unlike restaurants, there may not be new retailers ready to fill the void.
While the economy prospered the past few years, thousands of stores succumbed to online competition, including small, independent operators and big names like Macy's, Penney's and Payless ShoeSource. More than 15,000 closings were announced in 2018 and 2019, according to Coresight, a research firm.
The trend has been exacerbated by the virus crisis. For instance, the Italian fashion house Valentino sued its landlord this week to break a lease in Manhattan. The company says the pandemic has made it impossible to offer a high-end shopping experience at the glamorous Fifth Avenue address where it has sold $1,000 pumps and $2,600 clutches since 2013.
Meanwhile, online shopping keeps growing. Amazon.com's first-quarter sales rose 26%.
"Retail is on life support. It already was," Siegel said.

Litigation / Trial Practice
United Airlines to Pay $321,000 and Fight Internet Harassment to Settle EEOC Discrimination Suit
Pilot Repeatedly Posted Sexually Explicit Photos of a Flight Attendant To Websites for Years, Federal Agency Charged
SAN ANTONIO, Texas - United Airlines, Inc., a Chicago-headquartered international airline operating in over 300 airports across five continents, has agreed to pay $321,000, plus attorney's fees, to settle a sexual harassment lawsuit brought by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the federal agency announced today.
The EEOC's lawsuit alleged that, over the course of many years, a United captain frequently posted explicit images of a flight attendant to multiple websites, without her consent, making reference to her name, home airport, and the airline's tagline "Fly the Friendly Skies." The EEOC's suit asserted that the images were seen by co-workers of the flight attendant, as well as untold numbers of potential passengers, causing her humiliation and embarrassment and adversely affecting her work environment.
The EEOC maintained that United failed to prevent and correct the pilot's behavior, even after the flight attendant made numerous complaints and provided substantial evidence to the airline of the pilot's conduct. The EEOC asserted that the pilot was allowed to retire with benefits despite initiation of a criminal prosecution by the U.S. attorney's office under federal internet stalking laws.
Such alleged inaction when an employer is aware of sexual harassment violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits employment discrimination based on sex, including harassment that creates a hostile environment. The EEOC filed suit in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas, San Antonio Division (EEOC v. United Airlines, Inc., Civil Action No. 5:18-cv-817) after first attempting to reach a voluntary settlement through its conciliation process.
"Employers are best served when they fulfill their obligation to be diligent in preventing and correcting sexual harassment, whether the offensive conduct takes place in the workplace or involves misconduct by an employee on the internet that affects the work environment," said Philip Moss, a trial attorney in the EEOC's San Antonio Field Office. "This resolution can serve to send a message to employers that they should have robust anti-harassment policies that are vigorously self-enforced."
The consent decree resolving this case, approved by U.S. District Judge Xavier Rodriguez, requires the company to pay monetary damages of $321,000, plus attorney's fees for the flight attendant and to provide notice to company employees of their protections under Title VII. The decree further requires the airline to revise its sexual harassment policies explicitly to include harassing conduct perpetrated through the internet or social media and affecting the work environment - whether on or off duty.
EEOC Supervisory Trial Attorney Eduardo Juarez of the EEOC's San Antonio Field Office explained, "Employers must not ignore harassment complaints simply because the harasser holds a position of authority."
Robert A. Canino, regional attorney of the EEOC's Dallas District, added, "This case highlights the issues of employer accountability for harassment in the modern workplace. Employee workdays and jobsites are no longer defined by timecards and the walls of a building, but by the breadth of a digital day and the reach of electronic communications. The policy United has agreed to implement can perhaps serve to provide ideas for other companies adapting to the increased risks posed by employee misuse of technology."
The flight attendant who intervened in the EEOC's federal lawsuit was individually represented by attorney Colin Walsh of the Austin, Texas office of Wiley Walsh, P.C.
The San Antonio Field Office is part of the EEOC's Dallas District Office, which is responsible for processing charges of discrimination, administrative enforcement, and the conduct of agency litigation in Texas and parts of New Mexico.

It is also illegal to discriminate against a person because the person complained about discrimination, filed a charge of discrimination, or participated in an employment discrimination investigation or lawsuit.

The Bhutan Literary Festival Mountain Echoes was one of the most beautiful I have ever attended. I felt so at home that on the second day, when I met a young American teacher and his wife who were teaching in a school in Bhutan, I sat down with them and did a reading from my book When Crows are White. It was a lovely moment for me and it was made lovelier when one of the kids wrote me a poem and the teacher posted it on twitter.
I enjoyed my time on stage because the audiences were engaged and attentive and the conversations ranged far and wide. I enjoyed my time off stage too because many interesting questions were aired and the discussions were free and frank.
And ten minutes walk away was the magic of a river with onyx-coloured water and the forests. I took Omair Ahmed's book, a bunch of fruit bought at the market, and went off one afternoon to sit quietly and enjoy reading amid birdsong and windsong.

I've been looking around, and I noticed something: how much you really need to be loved. Ambition isn't just a desperate quest for positions or money. It's just love - lots of love.
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz.
Billie Holiday, Aretha Franklin. Now, they are so subtle, they can milk you with two notes. They can make you feel like they told you the whole universe. But I don't know that yet. All I got now is strength. Maybe if I keep singing, maybe I'll get it.
If I hold back, I'm no good. I'm no good. I'd rather be good sometimes, than holding back all the time.
I always wanted to be an artist, whatever that was, like other chicks want to be stewardesses. I read. I painted. I thought.
Playing is just about feeling. Playing isn't necessarily about misery. Playing isn't necessarily about happiness. But it's just about letting yourself feel all those things that you have already on the inside of you, but you're all the time trying to push them aside because they don't make for polite conversation or something.
I'm a victim of my own insides. There was a time when I wanted to know everything. It used to make me very unhappy, all that feeling. I just didn't know what to do with it. But now I've learned to make that feeling work for me.
All of a sudden, someone threw me in front of this rock and roll band. And I decided then and there that was it. I never wanted to do anything else.
I won't quit to become someone's old lady.

W.754
Two leaves from an Antiphonary
Text title
Antiphonary fragment
Originally part of an Antiphonary created in Germany in the early fourteenth century, these two nonconsecutive folios were saved for their large and ornate historiated initials. Stylistically, the images are close to the "Legendarium" of the Abbey of Heiligen Kreuz in Regensburg, and these leaves have therefore been attributed to that region as well. Other folios from this same manuscript survive in several collections: New York, Pierpont Morgan Library, Ms. M.870 (1-3), the Los Angeles County Museum (no manuscript information on file), Stockholm, National Museum (Erickson Foundation, Med. 1-4), and in the collection of Philippe Verdier in Montreal. One of the New York leaves has the name "Gerwich" inscribed beneath a historiated initial, and this has been understood by scholars to be the name of the artist. As all of the surviving initials are by the same hand, the Walters initials may be attributed to Gerwich as well.

Q: Allocating a lot of file descriptors I am interested in bringing a system down (for, say 15 minutes) by allocating a lot of file descriptors and causing Out-of-File-Descriptor failure. (Don't worry, I am not trying to hack into anything. This is for testing a service I am writing... to see how it behaves under other programs misbehaving.) Any best practices for that? Should I just keep saying fopen() in a infinite for loop? And after 15 minutes, I can kill the process? Does anybody have experience with this?
Update: I am running Linux and the program I am writing will have super user privileges.
Thanks,
~yogi

A: Did you consider lowering with setrlimit RLIMIT_NOFILE the file descriptor limit before running your program?
This can be done simply with the bash ulimit -n builtin, in the same shell where you test your application, e.g.:
 ulimit -n 32

And it won't perturb much a lot of other services already running. Lowering that limit will make your application (run in the same shell) hurt it quickly (for your testing purposes).
On the entire system level you might also write into /proc/sys/fs/file-max e.g. with
echo 1024 > /proc/sys/fs/file-max

A: Depends on OS implementation, but call fopen on same file from same process will not allocate new file description, but just increment reference counter.
I would recommend you to read something about stress testing
Here are some usable software(you don't tag any OS platform):
http://www.opensourcetesting.org/performance.php

A: I had this happen once in normal use. I believe you run of inodes in linux. I don't know a faster way that just opening files. Just be careful, we locked our system up. It was a while ago so I don't remember what was trying to open a file, but things generally assume they can get a file handle and don't behave as well as they should in the case they can't. ~Ben

A: My 2 cents:
1.Write a program that creates a lot of file descriptors. You can achieve it by one of the following methods:
(a)Opening lot of different files in your code
   (b)Opening a lot of socket descriptors
(c)Creating a lot of threads
2.Now, keep spawning multiple instances of the program created in Step-1 (i.e. create multiple processes) using a shell script or something similar.
Note:
In linux as well as most other operating systems, there is a limit on the number of file descriptors per process (In linux by default it is 1024 I guess. You can check it using ulimit -a). So, your process will just fail when you do this. I am really not so sure that just by increasing the number of file descriptor usage you can make the system go down.

A: You can use mkstemp to get file descriptors of temporary files.

RNC National Committee of California's Shawn Steel on the state's gas tax, the migrant caravan and Secretary of State nominee Mike Pompeo.
Supporters of the gas tax repeal have collected enough signatures for the November ballot, according to Shawn Steel, the California Republican National Committeeman from California.
Republicans are targeting a law approved last April by the Democratic-controlled legislature and signed into law by Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown. It increases the gas tax by 12 cents per gallon and diesel fuel by 20 cents per gallon. It also includes a new annual vehicle fee ranging from $25 to $175 depending on the type of automobile. It is expected to raise $5.4 billion annually and will be used to repair roads, bridges and improve mass transit.
Needing about 585,000 signatures, Steel told FOX Business' Stuart Varney they've collected 900,000 signatures for the ballot measure that would withdraw the price increase on gas.
"There's so many things – taxes that are hidden that people don't appreciate – when you go to the pump and you put in 20 gallons and then you see that your cost is a lot higher – that upsets people," Steel said on "Varney & Co." on Thursday.
Can the WWE change Saudi Arabia's views on women?
Steel said the effort garnered support from all parts of the state.
In California, drivers pay about 80 cents more per gallon for gas, compared to the national average, Steel said.


La Jolla is a seaside resort community of up to 42,808 residents within the city of San Diego, California. Population figures are imprecise because La Jolla`s borders are indistinct. Generally the community`s border starts at Pacific Beach to the south and extends along the Pacific Ocean shore north to include Torrey Pines State Reserve ending at Del Mar, California. Along the way La Jolla encompasses neighborhoods like Bird Rock, Windansea, the La Jolla commercial "village", La Jolla Shores, La Jolla Farms, Torrey Pines, Mount Soledad and La Jolla Village (including La Jolla Village Square). Interstate 5 forms La Jolla`s man-made border to the east, with the exception of some University of California, San Diego (UCSD) and commercial property east of I-5 and north of La Jolla Village Drive, which are also considered in the wider definition to be part of La Jolla. (More specifically, the City of San Diego defines La Jolla`s eastern boundary as former Highway US 101, which is now Gilman Drive, excluding UCSD, and the northern boundary as the southern end of Torrey Pines municipal golf course.
The University of California, San Diego (including the San Diego Supercomputer Center) is the center of higher education in La Jolla. National University is also headquartered in La Jolla. Among the several research institutes near UCSD and in the nearby Torrey Pines Science Park are Scripps Research Institute, the Burnham Institute (formerly called the La Jolla Cancer Research Foundation) and the Salk Institute. The town's two rival prep schools are La Jolla Country Day School and The Bishop's School. The public high school, La Jolla High School, is in the San Diego City Schools district.
The La Jolla Community area consists of approximately 5,718 acres and is located along the western edge of the north coastal region of the City of San Diego. It is bounded on the north by the University of California, San Diego and a portion of the University community, on the east by Gilman Drive, the University community and Interstate 5, on the south by the community of Pacific Beach and on the west by the Pacific Ocean. The northern-most portion of La Jolla is separated from the remainder of the community by the Scripps Institute of Oceanography and a portion of the University of California. Neither Scripps nor the University of California are under the jurisdiction of the City of San Diego.
inating at Mount Soledad. Until the mid 20th century, La Jolla was characterized by small, single family summer cottages that were located along the coastline or interspersed within the portion of La Jolla known as "The Village." "The Village" includes the area within the boundary of Prospect Street, Girard Avenue and Torrey Pines Road.
proposed broad goals and guidelines for development and set the framework for the precise plans of La Jolla Shores and the Fay Avenue Extension.
In 1975, the plan was updated to address the issues of vehicular congestion, pedestrian safety, noise pollution and air quality occurring upon construction of new streets in the community. In 1995, the plan was comprehensively updated, but was only adopted outside of the Coastal Zone. Another comprehensive update to the La Jolla Community Plan was adopted by the City Council in June 2002, and was subsequently certified by the California Coastal Commission in February 2004 following City approval of a number of suggested modifications. The 2004 La Jolla Community Plan and Local Coastal Program Land Use Plan is now the effective plan for La Jolla, and supersedes all plans previously approved for the various parts of the community including the 1975 La Jolla Community Plan, the 1985 La Jolla/La Jolla Shores Local Coastal Program, the 1995 La Jolla Community Plan, the La Jolla Shores Precise Plan, and the Fay Avenue Right-of-Way Plan.

Days, weeks, months — planning your annual proxy meeting takes a lot of time and effort, as it should. It's a once-a-year opportunity to communicate and engage with your valued stockholders. But, sometimes, it doesn't come easy. (Frustration and headaches, anyone?) Here's the first in a blog series with Issuer Direct's three recommended steps for annual meeting and proxy.
When beginning to plan, it's important to break it down into five areas.
First, consider who will be involved in the meeting and who will attend the meeting. Divide these groups into two categories: Strategy & Planning and Execution.
These two categories will be important in ensuring you have the correct information and also keep the meeting on track and convey your specific message to shareholders.
Second, determine the goal of the meeting. It could be anything from trying to increase shareholder satisfaction to talking about a recent merger. Either way, it's necessary to have an understanding about what the message should be before putting together the call or presentation.
Third, follow best practices. Create a calendar, allow for extra time in case things don't go as planned, and use the SEC and Exchange requirement dates as a backbone and schedule document and BOD dates around these.
Fourth, it's meeting time. Stick to the script to reduce the inherent stress as much as possible. Keep it simple and keep discussions to a minimum. Circulate advanced copies of the script before the meeting and have a plan of action for anything that could come up during the meeting, including unruly attendees.
If you have any management presentations, prepare to present them after the formal meeting with your shareholders.
Fifth, have your proposals ready; there are a few options.
Quorum: Check the bylaws, but it's usually 50.1 percent of the issued.
Plurality: This is the normal director vote and consists of who has the most votes to win.
Simple Majority: 50.1 percent of the issued must vote in favor of the pass.
Majority of shares in attendance: 50.1 percent of the voted shares.
Have any questions about the annual meeting process? Reach out to an Issuer Direct expert.

As HIV-positive men age, a unique Vancouver program provides an 'oasis' for those who have lived through the worst days of AIDS
By Tessa VikanderStar Vancouver
Thu., July 18, 2019timer4 min. read
updateArticle was updated Jul. 19, 2019
VANCOUVER— Frederick Williams witnessed the worst of the AIDS crisis.
Diagnosed with HIV 33 years ago, Williams survived and went on to become a chef and then a harm-reduction workshop leader. But most of his friends weren't so lucky, and they died from AIDS-related illnesses.
"I've gone through waves of friends," the 55-year-old said. "In the 80s I lost all of my friends and then in the 90s I lost all of my friends again."
On a Wednesday morning in July, Williams came to the Dr. Peter Centre for breakfast, like he does most days. He also brought his laundry from home and put it in the washing machine.
By day, the centre is a bustling hub for those living with HIV, and it provides free meals, counselling, massage therapy, a living room, music lessons and more.
But it's the centre's evening program for gay and bisexual HIV-positive men over 50 where Williams has found a community.
Opinion | Ndileka Mandela: In honour of Mandela, Canada can step up the fight against HIV
"I find the day time program is very loud," but at the evening program, "the guys that are over 50 are more settled down."
Williams is one of a growing number of men who are aging with HIV.
By 2030, about 60 per cent of those with HIV worldwide will be older than 60, according to an estimate from the UC San Diego AntiViral Research Center.
Meanwhile, more than 55 per cent of the nearly 9,000 people living with HIV in B.C. who were "engaged in HIV care" were over the age of 50, according to 2016 data from the British Columbia Centre for Excellence in HIV/AIDS. That compares to approximately 10 per cent, two decades earlier.
Scott Elliott, executive director of the Dr. Peter AIDS Foundation that runs the centre, said HIV specialists and caregivers hadn't really considered the kinds of support needed for seniors with HIV until recently, because living a long life is a relatively new phenomenon for them.
"Before 20 years ago … we didn't really think about HIV as a chronic or ongoing lifelong disease. It was 'you're going to get AIDS and you're going to die,'" Elliott said.
When the program began in 2017, Elliott said only one or two people were showing up. By the end of the first year, it had 18 to 20 regulars. Now, in 2019, nearly 40 men participate.
Williams describes Wednesday evenings as an "oasis" where he can reminisce about past sorrow and joy without shame.
"We have scars that a lot of people don't understand. We saw it, we lived it, we weren't sure if we were next. Having this group, we all have a common ground."
According to the centre, there are nearly 600 gay and bisexual HIV-positive men in Metro Vancouver who could benefit from a similar program, yet it is believed to be the only one of its kind in Canada.
Up until the late '90s, Elliott said about 85 per cent of those being diagnosed with HIV were gay men, and doctors would tell them to "cash in any life insurance, go have fun, take care of yourself for the next year or two, because you're not going to live much longer than that."
Then came the life-altering antiretroviral medications. Although they are not a cure for HIV, if taken properly, they keep the virus count in a person's blood stream so low that they can't pass the virus on to another person.
They also keep people alive and allow them to age. But for those with HIV, getting old is more complicated.
For example, Elliott said people with HIV are experiencing dementia and bone loss at an earlier age than those without. Fear of discrimination from care providers or other seniors in mainstream seniors programming can cause some men to go back in the closet.
Another issue is isolation, a challenge common among seniors, but made worse by the fact that many of the men lost about half of their peer group 25 or 30 years ago, Elliott said.
"With isolation, folks aren't taking their pills properly ... if you don't take your meds, you will get sick."
Those using the program are taking anywhere from one to 25 pills per day, Elliott noted.
Notably, many of the men who come to the evening program have also started using the day program as well, so Elliott said the need for seniors programming for HIV-positive gay men can't be overstated.
On top of the fact that facing mortality brings up memories of losing loved ones to AIDS, these seniors also harbour trauma from the stigma of being gay.
"Someone who was in their 70s went through the whole homosexual movement when it was illegal, when it was a mental illness, they could have been in jail, in raids," Elliott said. "So there's all this residual trauma from that as well."
Correction: July 19, 2019 — A previous version of this story misattributed information about the number of people over 60 who will be living with HIV in 2030. The story has been updated.

NHL Playoffs: Bruins vs. Red Wings
Tuukka Rask has proven he can handle a heavy workload this season and seeks to avenge last year's Stanley Cup finals loss.
by Christopher Wenrich
After savoring their Stanley Cup victory in 2011, the Boston Bruins experienced the bitterness of defeat at the hands of the Chicago Blackhawks in 2013. Once again, the Bruins are among the heavy favorites to win the Cup.
258 goals for (3rd)
171 goals against (2nd)
21.7 PP% (3rd)
83.6 PK% (8th)
The Bruins are strong in every aspect of the game and should be heavy favorites over the Red Wings. Goaltender Tuukka Rask was spectacular this season, sporting a 36-15-6 record and a 2.04 GAA (4th), .930 SV% and a league-leading seven shutouts. Rask is arguably the best goaltender in the National Hockey League and demonstrated this season that he can handle a heavy workload.
Having Zdeno Chara in front his a huge asset to Rask. Chara's reach is known to cause havoc in the passing lanes and disrupt scoring chances, but his offensive game should not be overlooked, as he tallied 40 points in 77 games. The Bruins acquired Andrej Meszaros from the Philadelphia Flyers at the trade deadline. At the time, Meszaros was returning to his old form and he posted five points in 14 games with the Bruins. Youngster Torey Krug also had a productive season, posting 40 points in 77 games.
Up front, Milan Lucic rebounded from a disappointing 2012-2013 season in which he registered 27 points in 46 games and a +8 rating. In 2013-2014, Lucic notched 59 points and a +30 rating while scoring on 15.7% of his shots (he scored on only 8.9% last season). Jarome Iginla was also productive with 61 points in 78 games in the 12th 30-goal season of his career. Iginla's 61 points was third among the Bruins and trailed only David Krejci (69) and Patrice Bergeron (62).
Aside from Rask in goal, Bergeron may be the key to the Bruins' success. In addition to Bergeron's 62 points and +38 rating, he led the NHL in faceoff wins (1,015) and was third in faceoff percentage (58.6%). Bergeron's superb two-way play is a vital component to the Bruins' success.
217 goals for (16th)
221 goals against (16th)
17.7 PP% (18th)
83.0 PK% (12th)
The NHL's realignment plan brought the Red Wings to the Eastern Conference and they are heavy underdogs in their series with the Bruins. Daniel Alfredsson led the team in scoring with 49 points in 68 games. Defenseman Niklas Kronwall also had 49 points (78 games). A defenseman leading or tied for the team lead in points is not a regular occurrence. Prior to Erik Karlsson and Shea Weber this season, and Weber last season, the last defenseman to lead their team in scoring was the Pittsburgh Penguins' Dick Tarnstrom in 2003-2004.
Pavel Datsyuk had 37 points in 45 games this season. The 35-year-old Russian may not have the ability to post Crosby-like numbers, but very few play the game better than Datsyuk. He still has the ability to control the tempo of a game with the puck and the to take the puck away from others. Despite appearing in only 45 games, Datsyuk ranked 15th among forwards with 59 takeaways; Ryan O'Reilly (Colorado Avalanche) led the NHL with 83 takeaways in 80 games.
Although the Red Wings' NHL rankings may look unimpressive, they are not a team to be underestimated. In addition to Datsyuk's injury, Henrik Zetterberg was limited to 45 games and Johan Franzen appeared in 54 contests. Zetterberg is still recovering from a bad back and skated for the first time in over month on Thursday. His status for the series is unknown. For the Red Wings to have any realistic chance of defeating the Bruins, Datsyuk will need to be on top of his game. Dastsyuk had 21 points in 19 wins this season, but only 16 points in 26 losses. If Datsyuk and Franzen can generate some offense and not fall too far behind in the series before Zetterberg returns, the Red Wings may have a shot at pulling off the upset.

BBC Two England, 30 April 1979 21.35
Mr Ludwig's Tropical Dreamland
Tonight, Horizon tells the extraordinary story of the Jari project ... a private city state the size of Wales carved out of the Amazon jungle by American billionaire Daniel K. Ludwig.
While arguments rage about the destruction of the rain forest, Ludwig has cleared vast areas of jungle and replanted with the biggest man-made forest in the world ... a mixture of pine and a fast-growing tree which matures in ten short years to provide both pulp and timber. Rice and china-clay are secondary industries. The project has created a mixed community of Americans and Brazilians, already putting down roots and creating traditions.
The project raises a multitude of questions - economic, ecological and political. It's a pioneering high-risk enterprise on a scale which could only have been tackled by the richest man in the world. Narrator PAUL VAUGHAN

Falken Tire came to MJD Interactive in 2011 looking to expand their brand recognition to a new demographic. After significant market research, the MJD Interactive branding team found that Falken had serious clout with one of the hardest demographics to attract – 18 – 30-year-old males. Falken is huge in the racing and drifting world. As a company, they also needed to attract the 30 – 55 year old demographic, but without losing what they currently have. MJD designed a site that caters to the younger crowd with social feeds, a Motorsports area, and of course, the Falken Models. We also added easy to use Tire Finder calculators and significantly more information on their products than before to attract customers that are a bit older and looking for more specifications. The site has been a huge success.
Over the last seven years, we have built three versions of the Falken Tire site, each time increasing traffic and KPI performance. In 2017 we helped Falken with a large new initiative to build a training site for their dealers.
MJD was asked to design a new dealer training platform system for Falken. It was key to build an intuitive and flexible system for all users, from Falken admins, to dealership managers, to sales associates.
MJD used massive amounts of data to design a modular and modern dealer portal that included sales data, training videos and quizzes, charts and snapshots of individual and team training progress. We also created a reward shop for redemption of earned points. All of this inspired dealers to achieve greater sales and engagement throughout their organization.
Data is pulled in from store sales and personalized for each user within the dashboard. As they interact with the training system, they accrue points that can be redeemed for rewards. These rewards are earned at both the individual and dealership level.

EP05 Workshop 34 - A New Leadership Role for Mental Health Professionals - William Glasser, M.D.
Workshops | Leadership | Therapist Development
William Glasser, MD
The leadership role in mental health has been assumed by psychiatrists who diagnose mental illnesses that do not exist and treat them with potentially harmful brain drugs. Dr. Glasser will explain that mental health separate from mental illness does exist if we could change from the mental illness model to a new public health model based on mental health. This will allow psychotherapists to assume a leadership role they don't have now.
To describe a public health approach to deliver mental health directly to clients.
To describe how the public health model would differ from the medical model.
William Glasser, MD Related seminars and products
William Glasser, MD, who received his MD degress in 1953 from Case Western Reserve University was an American psychiatrist. William was awarded an honorary doctorate in human letters by the University of San Francisco. Founder and Director of the Institute for Reality Therapy, he was authoer and editor of ten books on the topics of reality therapy and education. He was also the developer of Choice Theory. His ideas, which focus on personal choice, personal responsibility and personal transformation, are considered controversial by mainstream psychiatrists, who focus instead on classifying psychiatric syndromes as "illnesses", and who often prescribe psychotropic medications to treat mental disorders.

Digitization Uncovers New 'Mark Twain' Stories
Digitization Uncovers New 'Mark Twain'…
You probably know about Mark Twain even if you haven't read a book by the name of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. But that ain't no matter. The digitization of 19th century newspapers means that Samuel Clemens (Twain's real name) scholars have discovered a whole series of newspaper articles—where he told the truth, mainly—that had been thought lost.
Like the British Library, which is going through its collection of scanned newspapers from the Victorian era looking for what passed for humor then, the new Clemens writings were discovered through the digitization of newspapers.
Digitization was like "opening up a big box of candy," Bob Hirst, editor of the University of California, Berkeley's Mark Twain Project Online (MTPO), told the Guardian. It meant that Twain's articles could be tracked down in a way that was not possible when archives were all on microfilm, he said. About 110 new pieces have been discovered.
"Twain wrote some of the letters and stories at the San Francisco Chronicle when it was called the San Francisco Dramatic Chronicle, where his job included writing a 2,000-word dispatch every day and sending it off by stagecoach for publication in the Territorial Enterprise newspaper in Virginia City, Nevada," writes the Guardian. At the time, 1865, he was 29 and debating his future career.
It was known that Clemens had written for the Territorial Enterprise—in fact, it was the first place he used the Twain pseudonym. But much of what he wrote for the paper was lost in a series of fires that burned back issues, Hirst told Steve Rubenstein, who writes for the present-day San Francisco Chronicle.
"Scholars rediscovered his San Francisco stories by combing back issues of other Western U.S. newspapers, many of which reprinted the Territorial Enterprise letters," Rubenstein writes. "Some of the recently found letters, assembled bit by bit from newspaper archives and historical societies, were unsigned. Hirst says that a close examination of their style proves that Twain was the author."
MTPO is digitizing its complete collection of Twain material, including books, letters, photographs, documents, and notes. Its ultimate purpose, according to the organization's website, is to "produce a digital critical edition, fully annotated, of everything Mark Twain wrote."
MTPO started the process of digitizing Clemens' work as long ago as 2001, though at first each of the different types of material had a different repository. The organization then partnered with the California Digital Library to obtain the technical expertise it needed to make the materials available in a single place online, where they are both more accessible and more easily updated than in printed books.
"Dozens of previously unknown letters by Clemens come to light every year, so that print volumes that are meant to be comprehensive may be out of date almost as soon as they hit the bookstores," MTPO writes. "Web publication, on the other hand, can make new documents accessible to the public as soon as they emerge."
Online publication offers other advantages, the organization writes. "A digital critical edition allows for interactivity and an integrative reading experience that is unimaginable in a print edition," it describes.
"Side-by-side digital presentation makes more visible the transcription process of a particular passage from the original manuscript or typescript. Critical editions often contain long lists of emendations and historical collations in the back of the book, referencing the text using page-and-line cues. Digital publication allows each emendation or collation to be hyperlinked to a specific location in the text or texts that can instantly display all the variant readings from one witness in place, providing superior access to the information."
That said, over the next 18 months MTPO plans to collect all the newly found material into a book, according to the Washington Post.
UC Berkeley isn't the only repository of scanned Clemens work. Other sources include:
Northern Illinois University, which provides a searchable and indexed digital library of some of his work, particularly his Mississippi novels and reminiscences;
The New York Public Library, which is digitizing manuscripts of A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Courtand Following the Equator, as well as his letters with people such as Andrew Carnegie, William Dean Howells, and Theodore Roosevelt; and
The University of Missouri Press, which is raising money in an effort to digitize authors associated with Missouri, including Twain.
And what happened to Clemens after his sojourn in San Francisco? It turns out that he moved to Hawaii and took up the career for which he is best known, writes Rubenstein. "A life of writing novels, in which it was OK to make things up, suited him better than that of writing newspaper stories, in which doing so is not generally recommended," he writes.
Don't you love a happy ending?
DocuSign Integration with Workflow Activities by CDI


When controlled deceleration is required at the end of the stroke of your mechanism, the Airpot snubber configuration is particularly useful. It performs push damping only and the push rod is not connected to the work. Airpot snubbers cover a wide range of low to moderate energy applications in which accurate control of impact, damping or shock absorption is required. The devices accomplish this by using the piston to force ambient air through an adjustable orifice at a controlled rate to dissipate kinetic energy and reduce impact, noise and wear.
For more information on our pneumatic shock absorption products, contact us today! See us for all your other pneumatic damping needs as well.

Heading to Hasbro HQ this week!
This week, Travis and I will be meeting up with several other bloggers (from ClickClickBamf, FoamFromAbove, ShiningFoam, BlasterLabs, NerfHaven, and Drac) at Hasbro Headquarters in Rhode Island! We are so very excited to have this opportunity that's been afforded to so very few members of the Nerf Community in the past (so far as we know, only a few from NerfHaven had been invited about 7 or 8 years ago).
We'd like you to give us your questions for the Nerf Team, and we'll try to provide any answers that we can! We've had to sign a non-disclosure agreement in order to take this tour, so we won't be able to share everything we see and hear, but we'll be sure to ask all of the questions we can. We'll route the questions through our liaison to determine if we'll be allowed to talk about the answers, and share all we can!

Honda Plant Closure Could Jeopardize 3,500 Jobs
The Japanese carmaker is reportedly set to announce that the Swindon plant in the U.K., where Honda makes its Civic model, will close in 2022.
Honda will close a car factory in western England with the potential loss of 3,500 jobs, British media and a local lawmaker said Monday, in another blow to a British economy made jittery by Brexit.
Sky News said the Japanese carmaker is to announce Tuesday that the Swindon plant will close in 2022. Honda makes its popular Civic model at the factory, 70 miles (115 kms) west of London.
Local lawmaker Justin Tomlinson confirmed the news in a series of tweets. He said he had spoken to Honda, and the company said the decision "is based on global trends and not Brexit as all European market production will consolidate in Japan in 2021."
He said no job losses at the plant were expected until 2021.
Honda said it could not comment "at this stage."
"We take our responsibilities to our associates very seriously and will always communicate any significant news with them first," the firm said in a statement.
The Unite trade union, which represents workers at the plant, said it was looking into the reports. Des Quinn, the union's automotive-sector national officer, said the plant's closure "would be a shattering body blow at the heart of U.K. manufacturing."
The news comes as British businesses are issuing increasingly urgent warnings about the damage being done by the uncertainty around Britain's looming exit from the European Union. The U.K. is set to leave the bloc on March 29 but has yet to seal a deal laying out the divorce terms and establishing what trade rules will apply after Brexit.
Many businesses fear economic chaos if there isn't an agreement on the rules and conditions that will replace the 45 years of frictionless trade that came with being an EU member. The uncertainty has already led many firms to shift some operations abroad, stockpile goods or defer investment decisions.
Earlier this month, Japan's Nissan announced that it would not build a new SUV at its plant in Sunderland, England, as previously planned.
Nissan said it had made the decision "for business reasons," but added that "the continued uncertainty around the U.K.'s future relationship with the EU is not helping companies like ours to plan for the future."
Last week Ford said that if Britain left the EU without a deal on smooth future relations, it would be "catastrophic for the U.K. auto industry and Ford's manufacturing operations in the country."
Christian Stadler, professor of strategic management at Warwick Business School, said automakers were being hit by several factors, including a cooling global economy and a European crackdown on diesel engines.
"Add the fact that the supply chain for most British-made cars crosses the Channel several times as parts are shipped back and forth, so any delays at the border after Brexit could severely disrupt the industry's 'just in time' production method, and the U.K. starts to look like a less attractive place for international companies to build cars," he said.

It is important for you to be keen when you decide on selling your home. You may focus so much on the profit that you are going to reap from selling your home but this will be more than that. Selling a home will need one to put in place some things that will enable you to get a buyer and sell at the best price. Selling your home needs you to evaluate for some elements and from the following text you will know of these factors.
When you need to sell your home, you need to get the best real estate agent. It is better if you hire a real estate agent to help you in the sale your home. This is because they have all the knowledge that is needed to sell a home and have gained experience within the course of their job. They will have knowledge of the best time to sell your house and also have the best skills that are needed to sell a home. It is important, therefore, to have a good real estate agent when you need to sell your home.
The appearance of the front of your home will also play a great part in the in the sale of your home. People who come to see the home that you are selling come in through the front and this is what will give them the first impression. To create an impressive front to your home you can have to clean your door and the glass panes, plant some flowers that will be attractive and perhaps hanging a floral basket. If you present the front of your home well, you will add some points that the buyers will consider when they need to buy a home because it will be attractive. You can get ideas on how to have an appealing front to your home from sash and Jayd.
When you need to sell your home, you should consider de-cluttering. This simply means that you make the home that you are selling to seem as if it has got some space. Space in a house is important so that it will cause convenience of movement especially for those who have kids and pets and this is a factor that the buyers consider when they are in need of a home. For you to gain extra space in the house that you need to sell, it is good to create space by moving out old furniture and by getting of things that are not important from the shelves.
