News Alert: Grapevine Open
UPDATE: LEBEC (Friday, Jan. 22, 2010, 6:45 a.m.)—The grapevine is open. At the 166 junction, just west of the I-5 a load of dirt obstructs the roadway, reported at 6:30 a.m.
UPDATE: LEBEC (Thursday, Jan. 21 2010, 4:20 p.m.)—Cars are being assembled to be escorted across the Grapevine. This is the CHP report for 4:17 p.m.: COORDINATION CENTER IS ASSEMBLING 300-400 VEHICLES FOR ESCORT FOR SOUTH BOUND SIDE
UPDATE: LEBEC (Thursday, Jan. 21, 2010, 12:01 p.m.)—The I-5 is still closed due to snow southbound at Laval Road and northbound at Newhall. CHP expects this to be a long term delay because snow plows are helping but not enough to ensure safe travel.
We will provide additional updates as they are available. Call 245-NEWS (245-6397) if you have breaking news to report. Call (800) 427-ROAD (7623) for the latest roadway conditions.
UPDATE: LEBEC (Thursday, Jan. 21, 2010, 10:03 a.m.)—The Grapevine has been closed in both directions due to heavy snow according to California Highway Patrol Fort Tejon office.

UPDATE: LEBEC and PINE MOUNTAIN (Wednesday, Jan. 20, 2010, 6 p.m.)—Escorts are beginning to be conducted across the Grapevine according to California Highway Patrol
Westbound traffic backed up at the Mil Potrero Highway "Y" is now beginning to flow, ending a 90 minute (or longer) blockade due to adverse weather conditions and a county truck that blocked the road.
UPDATE: PINE MOUNTAIN (Wednesday, Jan. 20, 2010, 5:50 p.m.)—The Grapevine remains closed. Meanwhile, over at the Mil Potrero Highway "Y" into Pine Mountain, "Send sandwiches," is the laughing lament of motorists still stuck as dark falls and the temperature drops. Three Edison trucks have just been allowed to exit eastbound coming out of Pine Mountain, but no cars are being allowed to enter going westbound.
"We were told by a man with a radio that they were getting a grader in to widen the road," Carlos "David" Cordova said five minutes ago. He said he has a blanket and water. Most motorists are now keeping their engines runnig to stay warm. That is a reminder that it is wise to fill fuel tanks before advancing into the mountains, especially in adverse weather conditions.

UPDATE: PINE MOUNTAIN (Wednesday, Jan. 20, 2010, 5:36 p.m.)—Mil Potrero is still blocked to wesbound traffic trying to enter the S curves.

A couple of commercial vehicles have also emerged from Mil Potrero Highway, traveling east. "They seem to be able to come out, but we don't seem to be able to just go home," Cordova said.
UPDATE (Wednesday, Jan. 20, 4:38 p.m.)—Carlos "David" Cordova of Pine Mountain has called from the Mil Potrero "Y" to report that two large county vehicles, one a snow plow, have removed the incapacitated county truck from the narrow mountain road.

SINGAPORE — US President Donald Trump said he had forged a "good relationship" with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un at the start of a historic summit in Singapore on Tuesday, as the two men sought ways to end a nuclear standoff on the Korean peninsula.
"There will be challenges ahead," Kim said, but he vowed to work with Trump. Both men sat alongside each other against a backdrop of North Korean and US flags, with Kim beaming broadly as the US president gave him a thumbs up.
As the two leaders met, Singapore navy vessels and air force Apache helicopters patrolled, while fighter jets and a Gulfstream 550 early warning aircraft circled.
Pompeo said earlier the summit should set the framework for "the hard work that will follow," insisting that North Korea had to move toward complete, verifiable and irreversible denuclearization.
The summit was part of a "changed era," North Korea's state-run KCNA news agency said in its first comments on the event.
Talks would focus on "the issue of building a permanent and durable peacekeeping mechanism on the Korean peninsula, the issue of realizing the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula and other issues of mutual concern," it added.
Ahead of the summit, North Korea rejected unilateral nuclear disarmament, and KCNA's reference to denuclearization of the peninsula has historically meant it wants the United States to remove a "nuclear umbrella" protecting South Korea and Japan.

Grim Picture Painted by Final EPA Assessment of Mining in Bristol Bay
by Ben Kryzinski - Thursday, Jan 16th, 2014
Bristol Bay Rainbow Trout
The long awaited final scientific assessment of the potential impacts from large-scale mining in the Bristol Bay region of Alaska was released earlier this week by the United States Environmental Protection Agency. The pictured painted by the assessment is a grim one for the salmon of Bristol Bay, the ecosystem they drive and the native cultures and modern economies that depend on their survival and abundance.
The assessment states unequivocally that construction of a mine such as Pebble Mine, under the most extensive mining scenario, would result in the total loss of 94 miles of salmon-producing streams simply by virtue of the footprint required for mining operations to take place. Also resulting from the mine footprint would be streamflow alterations over 20 percent or more in 33 miles of streams and the loss of almost 5,000 acres of crucial wetland habitat.
The report goes on to detail a litany of additional negative impacts that could result from mining operations in the region, the majority of which are described by the report as "expected" or "likely" due to comparisons with the history of existing, similar mining operations. Detailed are impacts resulting from leakage during routine operations, wastewater treatment plant failures, spillway releases, culvert failures, pipeline failures, tailings dam failures, truck accidents and more.
In a press release issued in response to the EPA's release of its final assessment, Trout Unlimited is calling for "immediate action", requesting that the Obama administration use its power under the Clean Water Act to put a permanent stop to plans for mining in the Bristol Bay region. Doing so would require that the EPA issue a what is typically referred to as a 404(c) veto, through which the EPA could block operations deemed harmful to the Bristol Bay watershed in advance of an official permit application by mining interests. According to Trout Unlimited, and other proponents of EPA action to block mining in Bristol Bay, the final scientific assessment provides indisputable grounds for the EPA provide as justification for leveraging the powers provided to it by section 404(c) of the Clean Water Act.

Chris Wood, president and CEO of Trout Unlimited, stated that "The science is indisputable. Bristol Bay is the world's most important wild salmon fishery, and no place for a large-scale industrial mine. The EPA has done its job, and it's now time for the Obama administration to use its authority under the Clean Water Act to stop the mine and protect the $1.5 billion-per-year fishery."

How to Make a Musicwoman
Motivation and Competitiveness:
When the girls were 10, they were well-versed in the piano. It was time to start thinking about college and music scholarships. They needed to master an instrument and participate in middle and high school band activities. Their grandfather loved the saxophone and played in his youth. Their brother, Carl, played saxophone in the marching band. We purchased two used saxophones. Jazmin was determined to play better than her brother and was motivated to be the best amongst her peers.

Ghent recalls the pair also had a plethora of jazz CDs that were part of her childhood soundtrack. "So I kind of feel destined to play Jazz," Ghent said.

Garth Brooks' Birthday Cake From Trisha Yearwood Looks Absolutely Delicious
Garth Brooks turns 58 on Friday (Feb. 7), and he'll be celebrating with what looks like the most delicious birthday cake ever, courtesy of his wife, fellow country star Trisha Yearwood.
Also a dang good cook, Yearwood baked her hubby a German chocolate cake for his special day.
Yearwood posted a photo of Brooks' birthday cake on social media on Friday. Its ooey-gooey coconut-pecan frosting is adorned with birthday candles that spell out "Happy Birthday" and Brooks' new age.
"Happy birthday to my best friend, love of my life @garthbrooks," his wife writes in the photo's caption. "You make 58 look gooooood. I love you!"
Though Yearwood's a better baker than her husband — she's released multiple cookbooks and has her own cooking show, Trisha's Southern Kitchen, on the Food Network — he's no slouch when it comes to birthdays, either. In 2019, for Yearwood's 55th birthday, Brooks sent her an incredible bouquet of 55 roses; in 2017, he surprised her with tickets to see Bruno Mars in concert.
Brooks and Yearwood celebrated their 14th wedding anniversary in late 2019; they've been married since December of 2005, after Brooks proposed to Yearwood onstage at a California show in May of that year. Prior to pursuing a romantic relationship, the two artists were longtime friends: They met as aspiring artists and first sang together on "Like We Never Had a Broken Heart," from Yearwood's self-titled debut album, which was released in 1991.
Brooks and Yearwood were both previously married, him to Sandy Mahl, whom he divorced in 2000, and her to Chris Latham, whom she divorced in 1991, and Mavericks member Robert Reynolds, whom she divorced in 1999. "[Songwriter] Kent Blazy introduced me to Ms. Yearwood ... When she left, he goes, 'What did you think?' I said, 'Well, it's strange, because I felt that feeling like when you just meet your wife, but I've been married for 13 months,'" Brooks once recalled during an appearance on Ellen.
"This was somebody I always enjoyed being around, and we had a lot more in common than I ever dreamed we did," Brooks explains. "If you like her and don't know her, you'll love her. If you love her and don't know her, you'll worship her. She's the real deal."
Brooks and Yearwood do not have any children together; however, she maintains a close relationship with Brooks and ex-wife Sandy's three daughters.

Home Health Which is the best way to burn belly fat? A Duke University...
Which is the best way to burn belly fat? A Duke University study's findings.
Trim your belly fat with high protein dairy diets. McMaster University study findings.
Beautytek instead of cosmetic surgery?
A Much More Gentle Approach To Weight Loss
A new study's findings showed that the best way to burn belly fat is through aerobic exercise instead of weights lifting.
Researchers from Duke University of North Carolina, US, have monitored people who did aerobics for 8 months and compared them to those who did just weights lifting.
The group of participants into study lost almost 20 times as much fat around their stomachs.
The aerobics group lost around 2.5 square inches (about 16 sq cm) of belly fat, and a group that combined both aerobic and weights lifting lost only 1.5 square inches (less than 10 sq cm).
The best way to burn belly fat is through aerobic exercise instead of weights lifting
Cris Slentz, from Duke University, who undertook the study, said:
"Resistance training is great for improving strength and increasing lean body mass.
"But aerobic exercise is better for losing belly fat because it burns more calories."
Other study's findings showed that those who combined weights lifting and aerobics didn't see any further health benefits than those who only did aerobic, in terms of insulin resistance and liver fat, as Live Science reported.
Duke University researchers therefore concluded that aerobic exercise alone is more beneficial for obese and overweight individuals.
According to specialists, "belly fat" is defined as visceral fat, which is found deep in the stomach that surrounds the internal organs, as opposed to subcutaneous fat that is found underneath the skin.
Visceral fat is more threatening to health, as it lies closer to the organs and is associated with diabetes, heart disease and certain types of cancer.
Duke University researchers studied 196 overweight, sedentary adults between 18 and 70 ages, who were divided into three exercise groups – aerobics, weights lifting and combined.
Cris Slentz added:
"When it comes to increased health risks, where fat is deposited in the body is more important than how much fat you have.
"What really counts is how much exercise you do, how many miles you walk and how many calories you burn.
"If you choose to walk at a lower aerobic intensity, it will simply take longer to burn the same amount of unhealthy fat."
The study will be published in the American Journal of Physiology Endocrinology and Metabolism.

Belton Regional Medical Center Earns Emergency Nurses Association 2018 Lantern Award
Belton Regional Medical Center ...
Belton Regional Medical Center July 20, 2018
Belton Regional Medical Center—part of HCA Midwest Health, Kansas City's leading healthcare provider—is proud to announce it has received the Emergency Nurses Association's 2018 Lantern Award for demonstrating exceptional and innovative performance in leadership, practice, education, advocacy and research.
The ENA Lantern Award showcases Belton Regional Medical Center's emergency department's accomplishments in incorporating evidence-based practice and innovation into emergency care. The prestigious award also serves as a visible symbol of the hospital's commitment to quality, safety and a healthy work environment. It is named in honor of Florence Nightingale, who is credited with changing nursing from an untrained job to a skilled, science-based profession. She is referred to as the "Lady of the Lamp" for her actions during the Crimean War when she worked deep into the night, bringing a lantern with her as she tended to wounded British soldiers as they slept.
"We're excited to bestow 19 emergency departments with the Lantern Award this year," says ENA President Jeff Solheim, MSN, RN, CEN, TCRN, CFRN, FAEN, FAAN. "The Lantern Award acts as a visible symbol to patients that the receiving emergency department values excellence and delivers exceptional care. It shines a light on that emergency department's commitment to providing safe practice and safe care. Belton Regional Medical Center, and the other 18 emergency departments across the country, truly deserve this year's award."
"...a testament to our dedicated emergency department staff's focus on delivering high-quality, compassionate care to patients and their families."
CEO Todd Krass
"Belton Regional Medical Center is humbled and honored to receive this coveted award, a testament to our dedicated emergency department staff's focus on delivering high-quality, compassionate care to patients and their families," says Belton Regional Medical Center Chief Executive Officer Todd Krass. "As the community's trusted healthcare provider, we live this mission every day, with every patient— 'above all else, we're committed to the care and improvement of human life.'"
"It is inspiring to work with such an extraordinary, passionate and compassionate group of professionals in our emergency department," says Belton Regional Medical Center Chief Nursing Officer Heather J. Palmer, MSN. "The authentic teamwork they display each and every day elevates the quality, safety and patient experience. The staff certainly exemplifies the philosophy and rich legacy of the Lantern Award."
Belton Regional Medical Center's Lantern Award will be on display in the emergency department. The hospital will be recognized at the Emergency Nurses Association's annual conference—Emergency Nursing 2018—in September in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Everyone and I mean EVERYONE has either had to pay a student loan, is currently paying on their student loans or has paid off a student (or close to it). I've met very few people who have accomplished that goal and wouldn't I love to be one of them.
Student loans can be paid off and we found a way for you to decrease your student loan debt.
Check your employee benefits package.
Some major companies — including Fidelity, PwC, Aetna, and Staples — now offer employees help with student loan repayment, according to Barrett (chief education officer at micro investing site Acorns).
Certain sectors offer repayment aid or forgiveness through the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program. If you're pursuing a career in education, law, nonprofit, or government sectors, Barrett says you may be eligible.
This is an easy one. Not only will this help ensure you don't miss a payment, but Barrett notes it also has other benefits: many lenders offer a small interest-rate deduction (0.25 to 0.5 percent) if you enroll in an automatic billing program.

Biden speaking before Charles Merrill Hall at Morehouse College
The Hump Day Hot Topics!
Biden wants to end the filibuster
President Joe Biden took to the lectern yesterday on the campus of Morehouse College and in unequivocal terms, challenged the Senate to end the filibuster rules, ones that require a super-majority of 60 votes, so that the Freedom to Vote and John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Acts can get passed.
Said Mr. Biden, "I support changing the Senate rules, whichever way they need to be changed to prevent a minority of senators from blocking actions on voting rights..."
Biden's old colleague and current Republican nemesis, Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), hit below the belt by falsely playing upon the common GOP talking points that Biden is senile and paints all conservatives as racist. Said Mr. McConnell: "The president's rant — rant — yesterday was incoherent, incorrect, and beneath his office...The president repeatedly invoked the January 6th riot while himself using irresponsible, delegitimizing rhetoric that undermines our democracy...The sitting president of the United States compared American states to totalitarian states...So the world saw our commander-in-chief propagandize against his own country to a degree that would have made Pravda blush."
Wow! There's much to unpack here, so let us consider:
1. Yes, President Biden, at times, does give the appearance of being tired, grumpy, or out of touch (see Afghanistan)—but yesterday was NOT one of those times! His speechwriters hit the right points—and he stood and delivered his righteous demand that the filibuster ends now—and that voting rights get protected for ALL Americans.
2. Clearly, not all Republicans are racists, Mr. McConnell, but if 52 million Republicans are supporting measures that detrimentally impact Black voters, as has been the case in red states the past 12 months, then those Republicans support racist policies! As I have written time and again, frankly, I don't give a damn if this Republican or that Republican despises me or other Black folks in private, but I do give a damn when their policies impact my and other Black folks' ability to enjoy the rights supposedly guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution and other federal statutes.
3. The unmitigated gall of McConnell to suggest that President Biden's comments are un-American is rich with irony. I mean, a little over 12-months ago, it was heavily armed Republicans storming the Capitol Complex after breaking doors and windows while urinating and defecating in the halls of Congress; threatening to hang then Republican V.P. Mike Pence while brandishing "Trump 2020" and Confederate Battle Flags in a fit of violence unseen at the Capitol since the British lit up Washington D.C. during the War of 1812!
I find it appalling that McConnell could use such histrionics in disagreement with President Biden's request to end the filibuster, all the while he, like most Republicans, stood largely mute and falsetto voiced when his former President and party leader, Donald Trump, made a mockery of the 2020 election and what had previously been peaceful transfers of power.
The GOP Civil War is warming up
Speaking of internecine political fighting, the reason that Sen. McConnell and many other Republicans have lost their nerves is that with the mid-term elections in sight, they've chosen to take the "maybe if we avoid upsetting the former President, perhaps he will quiet down in Mar-a-Lago and allow the GOP to win the House and Senate thus year?"
Fat chance; it is clear that the crowd loving Trump, much like his presidential predecessor Barack Obama, is going to continue being a very present figure in partisan political power struggles in the years to come.
Since last summer, Trump has weighed in on hundreds of GOP primary races on the state and local levels, with his support hinging upon whether the Republican candidate will parrot his "Stop the Steal" falsities about the 2020 election.
Juxtaposed to those Republican incumbents and candidates who are willing to take the lying loyalty oath are a number of moderates and conservatives like former President George W. Bush, his former vice-president, Dick Cheney, and Rep. Liz Cheney, each of whom congratulated Mr. Biden on his victory in 2020—and continue to support the legitimacy of his administration (even if disagreeing on substantive policy).
Sen. McConnell, too, once was in league with the rational Republicans who saw Trump's mendacities for what they were, but has since shunned common sense for his own desire to return to the head of the Senate chamber by appeasing Trump's loyal fans who can be pivotal next Fall should they stay home if their supreme leader, Trump, says so (like thousands did in the Georgia 2021 Senate runoff that led to Democrats Raphael Warnock and Jon Osoff being elected).
The latest battle in the GOP civil war has centered upon the rhetorical wrestling between Sen. Mike Rounds, (R-S.D.), and Mr. Trump. Sen. Rounds is one of a few within his caucus with spine still intact, and when asked about Trump's stolen election claims, stated this past weekend: "While there were some irregularities, there were none of the irregularities which would have risen to the point where they would have changed the vote outcome in a single state. The election was fair, as fair as we have seen. We simply did not win the election, as Republicans, for the presidency. And if we simply look back and tell our people don't vote because there's cheating going on, then we're going to put ourselves in a huge disadvantage."
Mr. Trump, per usual, clapped back on Sunday with school boy insults, claiming that Sen. Rounds "just went woke," before calling him a "jerk," "weak," "ineffective" and questioning whether Rounds was "crazy or just stupid."
Trump and Sen. Mike Rounds are going round-and-round over the 2020 election
Today, in his first interview with NPR (which he cut short after nine minutes), Trump was more measured in his rebuttal to Sen. Rounds, stating "No, I think (claiming the election was stolen) it's an advantage, because otherwise they're going to do it again in '22 and '24, and Rounds is wrong on that. Totally wrong."
While such barbs, oddly, provide some measure of comic relief, the truth is no laughing matter! And the truth is that American governments have always thrived upon two major parties providing contrasting styles and opinions in Washington or state capitals, and when one is as dysfunctional as the GOP is at this time, or frozen like deer in oncoming headlights, as the Democratic Party often is because Republicans are scared to negotiate (lest they face the ire of their former president), we, the people, all suffer!

July 31, 1969 — Elvis Presley first dubbed the "King of Rock 'n' Roll"
By Loki 222 Content, Culture, Rock n Roll History of the World, The Rock'n'Roll History of the World
It may seem unbelievable today, but there was a time when he wasn't 'the King'. In fact, there was a time when he was barely even Elvis Presley. In the period from the start of 1967 through to May of 1968, he released 8 singles – only 2 of which made the top 40, and none of which reached higher than number 28. That all changed with his "Comeback Special" in June 1968, the first time he had performed live since 1961. Broadcast on tv, it made him a household name once more, and from that point on, there would be no looking back.
Presley parlayed the success of the special into a residency at the newly opened International Hotel, in Las Vegas. On the day of his first concert there, July 31, 1969, Elvis was asked by a journalist how it felt to be the King of Rock'n'Roll. Elvis pointed at Fats Domino, who was also present: "No," he said, "that's the real king of rock and roll."

Delayed train? It could be due to the weather
Updated Saturday, 1 June by www.globalrailwayreview.com
You are on your way to a meeting and make your travel plans to get there right on time. However, you hear the painful words ring through the station speakers: "The next train at platform one will be late due to engineering works". You wonder why they pick today of all days to carry this out, and why it takes so long. But contrary to popular belief, the rail network doesn't delay trains because they feel like it.
The modern train is a remarkable feat of engineering; however, they are also delicate machines. Metal expands when exposed to heat. As a result, rails expand, bend, or even break under extreme temperatures. At high speeds, trains can derail. This is why train drivers monitor their speed very closely. Sometimes it is to do with scheduling, but it can also be due to safety reasons. To combat this, Network Rail generally repairs tracks before the summer months. They replace weakened sections of track or make changes which can cause rails to bend when exposed to high temperatures. The Japanese use 'slab track'. This involves laying rails on toughened concrete slabs. As a result, they are less affected by temperature. This contributes to Japan having one of the most punctual railway services in the world.
Accurate weather information
Rails are laid on ballast, also known as crushed stone. Heavy rain can wash away the crushed stone, thereby weakening the track. Moreover, heavy rain can damage electronics used for signalling and providing power to the trains. To combat this, it is crucial to have accurate weather information. This provides the data needed to plan ahead and mobilise staff. For instance, there are flood defence teams who clear blocked drains and lift sections of track at high risk of flooding. As a result, travel disruption can be kept to a minimum.
Rail tracks often pass through rural areas where trees or branches can sometimes end up on the track. This can lead to an accident or delay. Taking this into account, rail operators use preventative measures wherever possible. For instance, tree surgeons are hired to cut down branches and vegetation from the sides of tracks.
Moreover, leaves can get blown onto the track and get compressed into a slippery mush. This can cause rolling stock to lose grip, especially at high speeds. Inspectors check the rails frequently and clean debris using water jets and descaling machines.
Out of all the different weather conditions, snow is the most dangerous for railway networks and heavy snow requires a more extensive scale operation. Snow affects rails in a multitude of ways, including:
Snow or ice blocks trains from obtaining power from electrified rails
After clearance, strong winds can cause snow to drift onto tracks, thereby causing major disruption
Ice makes the track slippery which results in reduced grip for rolling stock.
Like with anything, practice makes perfect. In areas where heavy snowfall is less frequent, rail staff can be less prepared to take action. This can lead to long delays. Notably, after the snow is cleared, a risk assessment needs to be carried out. The reduced temperature from snowfall might also lead to breaks in the track, which will need to be replaced.
Delays can often make our railways safer
It can be irritating to be late as a result of a train delay. However, these delays help to protect the public from serious accidents. It is better to be late and arrive safely.
The weather has a significant impact on rail travel and delays are sometimes designed to protect the public. Due to climate change, there is a big emphasis on building tracks and trains for the future and this forward-thinking should help to reduce travel disruption.

Giving birth and 'going it alone': choosing to freebirth in the UK
BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth recently published a research article investigating the reasons behind why women choose to 'go it alone' when giving birth in the UK. Co-author Claire Feeley explains more about their findings in this guest blog.
Claire Feeley 12 Apr 2016
Why do some women choose to freebirth in the UK?
As a midwife, one might ask why I would be interested in the phenomenon of freebirthing, for this is a decision whereby women make an active choice to not have a midwife (or doctor) present at the birth.
However, my knowledge as a woman, mother and midwife tells me that childbirth choices are not made in isolation. Rather, they are deeply embedded within cultural, political and social landscapes. This caused me to wonder to what extent a woman's choice to freebirth was a reflection of poor maternity care or provision.
There are of course potential risks by 'going it alone' or to freebirth, as during birth unforeseen clinical events may occur which threaten the lives of mothers and babies.
There are of course potential risks by 'going it alone' or to freebirth, as during birth unforeseen clinical events may occur which threaten the lives of mothers and babies. These are generally rare but do require timely intervention by a trained maternity professional.
That said, we do know that there has been an exponential rise in birth interventions such as induction of labours, augmenting labours (speeding them up) and caesareans. Whilst life saving for many, their overuse is associated with increased levels of morbidity and mortality as demonstrated by the recent Lancet Series.
The medicalization of childbirth is a topic of great debate with passionate arguments from both sides. What is agreed is that the safe passage of mother and baby during childbirth is the priority. How that is enabled, however, is of great contention.
Within this context, I carried out a literature review of qualitative research to answer the question 'Why do some women choose to freebirth?' The search identified only four studies (three undertaken in America and one in Australia), none of which were based in the UK.
This review identified common motivations to freebirth including: a rejection of the medical and midwifery model of birth, a previous distressing/traumatic birth experience and a faith in the natural birth process. In addition there was a prevailing sense of women opting to freebirth in order to retain choice, control and autonomy over their bodies during the birth process.
The aim of this study was to identify and explore what influenced women's decision to freebirth in a UK context.
In order to see whether UK women held similar issues, the aim of this study was to identify and explore what influenced women's decision to freebirth in a UK context.
We recruited ten women to the study, all of which had freebirthed at least once in the UK. The findings were complex and deeply nuanced as the decision to freebirth was based on multiple factors.
What do our findings show?
Largely our findings supported those of the metasynthesis which was surprising as maternity services are configured very differently in the UK. For many their decision was borne out of a previous negative or traumatic birth experience, which was sometimes compounded by further negative experiences with maternity services (such as when making attempts to book a homebirth).
Whilst this may be a challenge for midwives to understand, it is a choice that must be respected.
These women described how they had lost faith in the maternity services to provide them with the care that they wanted or that they felt they needed.
Women frequently referred to how they considered a freebirth was the only option for them to be free from interference and to feel safe. This aspect from a midwifery perspective is deeply concerning, indicating a wide chasm between the midwifery philosophy of care and care delivery.
For other women their decision to freebirth was borne out of a positive experience where they wanted to enhance their birthing experience and a midwife was considered redundant. Whilst this may be a challenge for midwives to understand, it is a choice that must be respected.
Improving maternity services for all
The fact that women choose to freebirth in order to create a calm, quiet birthing space that is free from clinical interruptions and that enhances the physiology of labour, contributes to the body of evidence which seeks to improve maternity services for all.
International interest in the phenomenon has gathered momentum in the past few years. Researchers from the UK, Holland, Australia and Ireland are all providing valuable contributions to the phenomenon of freebirthing or birth that sits outside of the current norms of maternity provision.
Whilst the numbers of women who freebirth are relatively small, it does raise important questions regarding how maternity care is provided, how midwives can re-connect with women who have lost faith in our care and whether our practices always support physiological or optimal birth.
This work was supported by the Wellbeing of Women in conjunction with the Royal College of Midwives and the Burdett Trust (grant number ELS505). I would like to personally thank Gill Thomson for her excellent supervision and contribution to this paper.

I can understand why women want to freebirth when one only has to see the programme 'one born every minute ', to see that midwives and other medical practitioners are not observing evidence based practice, with far too much intervention and disrespect for women. Women have lost their trust in midwives and midwives have forgotten that they are the specialists in normal pregnancy and birth.

Is it possible to mount Cinder volumes on docker containers in openstack?
And if it is, is there a way to encrypt data leaving the container to the cinder volume?
I was thinking of mounting the volume as a loopback device and encrypt the data as it was being flushed to the disk. Ist this possible?
I haven't used yet openstack with docker containers but I watched openstack hypervisor support matrix ( https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Hyper... ).
For docker hypervisor the feauture "attach volume" and "detach volume" aren't supported.

A municipal council (Swedish: Kommunfullmäktige) is the decision-making body governing each of the 290 municipalities of Sweden. Though the Swedish Local Government Act (Swedish: Kommunallagen) uses the term "municipal assembly" in an English translation of the Act,[1] "municipal council" and even "city council" are used as well, even in official contexts in English by several of Sweden's largest municipalities, including Stockholm,[2] Malmö,[3] and Gothenburg.[4]
Stockholm municipality council in October 2014.
This system of administrative division was established with the municipal reform of 1971. Prior to this reform, municipal governance in Sweden was conducted by either a kommunalfullmäktige (municipal council in rural areas) or a stadsfullmäktige (city council in urban areas).[citation needed]
The number of members in each assembly can range from 21 to 101, depending on the population of the municipality in question. Members of the assemblies are chosen to serve for four-year terms through elections using a party-list proportional representation system. These municipal elections are held on the second Sunday of September, the same day as Swedish parliamentary elections.
The term kommunfullmäktige is also used by Swedish-speakers in Finland, where it corresponds to the kunnanvaltuusto with the same meaning.

Watch & Learn: Ethan Hawke's Jaeger-LeCoultre
All the details of the Boyhood star's time traveling watch
Written by Rhonda Riche
It's red carpet season and we have seen many fine timepieces at the award shows and film festivals leading up the big show, the Oscars. But this week, Ethan Hawke's Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Hometime (pictured here at the BAFTAs in London) is the watch that caught our fancy.
Hawke, of course, is the poster boy for the slacker era. But the simple, symmetrical styling of the Hometime helps find sartorial balance between his scruffy goatee and elegant tux. Because of its clean, uncluttered look, it would also look just as great with more casual attire (although we would have to draw the line at ripped jeans and flannel shirts).
Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Hometime
Considering his Oscar-nominated movie Boyhood was filmed over a 12-year period, and his Before trilogy of films spans two decades, this time machine has features that seem especially appropriate for Hawke. For instance, the Master Hometime quickset functions moves only the hour hand so you can adjust the time on the main display quickly in one-hour increments without affecting the minute hand. This easy-to-read-display lets you track time in one time zone while a skeletonized hand indicates the hour at home. There is also an associated day/night indicator and a date correction function.
The inner mechanics of the Master Hometime are also a work of harmony. No matter how turbulent your travels may be, the bridge of the automatic Caliber 975H movement is fitted with two rests and the balance spring is laser-welded to the stud and collet. This helps ensure stability as you journey through time and space.
Finally, we like Hawke's choice of JLC because, like Hawke and his multi-year projects, the classic look and craftsmanship of the Master Hometime continues to age gracefully.

Written and edited by the leading journalists in the field of big data, Datanami offers unmatched insight, analysis and up-to-the-minute information about emerging trends and solutions in big data. From networking to applications, or business to government, we have you covered. So keep up with the latest themes and events in big data analytics with Datanami's 2019 editorial calendar.
SQL Data Warehouses: SQL has been called the lingua franca of business data, and it's not going away. We'll check why parallel SQL data warehouses remain so popular in the business world, and when newer Hadoop engines will finally catch up.
Data Governance: The ever-increasing pace of data generation and storage is straining our ability to manage it effectively to ensure its availability, usability, integrity, and security. We'll investigate best practices and industry trends in data governance, including the impact that new data regulations will have on governance.
Containers and Kubernetes: At a time of extraneous complexity in big data, containers and Kubernetes promise a path to greater simplicity. We'll dig into the benefits offered by containerization and see where the experts think the trend will lead us next.
Deep Learning: One of the hottest trends in data science, deep learning combines big data and massive computational power to take statistical inference to the next level. We'll investigate real-world deep learning implementations and ask the experts where deep learning is headed next.
Stream processing: The foundation has been laid, but will 2019 be the year that stream processing finally breaks out? We'll investigate the various technologies at play with stream processing, and weigh the benefits and drawbacks of the different approaches.
NoSQL databases: Data generated today is messy and doesn't play nicely with rows and columns. Luckily, NoSQL databases have been created to house that less structured data. We'll explore the different types of NoSQL databases and how they're helping organizations manage the ongoing data explosion.
Future of Storage: The big data explosion has made it difficult for organizations to store all the data they need. We'll look at the newest storage technologies, particularly NVMe and memory-class storage, and ping the experts to get their take on what else the future might bring.
Faced with a shortage of data scientists, industry has turned to academia to help fill the void. We'll investigate the state of data science education at the college level, and take a look at some of the graduate-level programs.
AI Ethics: As AI makes its way into the real world, consumers are finding out where it helps them – and where it can hurt. We'll give you a peak into how the ethics of AI is developing, and what an AI best-practice program looks like.
Data Science Automation: Faced with a shortage of data scientists, vendors are doing their best to automate some of the "grunt work" that data scientists must do, as well as fostering greater collaboration and efficiency. We'll investigate the leading data science platforms and see where the future is headed.
Rise of Clouds: Public clouds have become the defacto standard for storing masses of data. We'll compare and contrast not only the storage offerings of the leading cloud vendors, but their data science and AI capabilities too.
Data Viz and BI: Despite the advancement of machine learning, humans are evolutionarily adapted to spot minute differences in data, which means putting eyes on data is still a cost-effective method for data exploration. We'll investigate the latest trends in data visualization and new developments in related BI products.
A New Decade for Big Data: What a decade the 2010s were for big data! We'll look at the incredible progress made in big data over the past 10 years, and take a gander at where the future will take us.


I can't believe I'd never seen Breaking Bad until about a fortnight ago! Watched all four seasons pretty much in one go. Ruined my work schedule completely :/ Anyway, finished just in time for the new season this weekend! Woo!
Love these nails, think they might be my favourite ever!
KayleighOC can come over to our house and watch Breaking Bad any time.

In a world where brilliant teens are building the next generation of technologically advanced robots, things could not be more different in this parallel universe. Bigbot Crew from Quickspin is the 5-reel and 40 fixed payline slot that stars two big features: the free spins and the Bigbot re-spins.
Meet the three-person crew: Matsuo, Danielle, and Joaquin. The game is set on the outskirts of a sprawling metropolitan city. Making up the symbols are our three characters and you'll also find other symbols such as two separate robot creations, and four different symbols that look like cogs or discs. The graphics don't disappoint, nor does the music and sound effects which create intensity.
The Bigbot re-spin feature is triggered by two fully expanded Bigbot wild symbols landing on the reels. When these robots partially emerge, the Mystery Nudge feature may bump the wilds up or down until the Bigbot occupies all spaces on the reel to help trigger the re-spins. Any wins are then calculated before you collect re-spins which correspond to the number of wilds that land on the reels. The wilds become sticky for the duration of the re-spins and each additional wild, if any, adds an extra re-spin in addition to becoming sticky also.
It is also possible to trigger 8 free spins by landing three bonus scatter symbols. You can add an additional re-spin to your total by landing a fully expanded Bigbot wild during the feature. Should you encounter a partial Bigbot wild than the nudge feature automatically kicks in so that the symbol fully appears on the reel. Free spins cannot be re-triggered when the feature is active.
Bigbot Crew slot has a September 11th, 2018 release date and a RTP of 96.58%. We are still awaiting some more granularity on the finer details including the economics of the slot but right now we can see the game promises to be particularly appealing to players who enjoy tech savvy themes. If the game has gotten you curious then we encourage you to visit us again soon where we'll be offering the links to our trusted casinos offering this game.

Our approach to the emotional lives of animals is scientifically and philosophically pluralistic. In our book we are presenting research from various scientific disciplines concerned with exploring the nature of nonhuman animal life (the biomedical sciences, pharmacological studies, neuroscience, zoology, etc.) but also from human and animal sciences with regard to human and animal interaction (animal science and farming production, animal psychology, animal welfare studies, and ecological niche modeling). Philosophical analysis which speaks directly to questions about the nature of animal minds and experience (including historical texts by Darwin, Schopenhauer, Descartes, Aquinas, etc.) have been placed at the end of the book. There we have included references to primary and secondary source materials, ranging from ancient through modern and contemporary periods in the history of western thought. This placement of historical, modern, and contemporary philosophical texts vis-à-vis scientific research serves to frame possible ontological frameworks for interpreting the research found in the earlier sections of the book. For example, Darwin theorized animal emotion and expression in his ''The Expression of Emotion in Man and Animals'' (1852) a long time ago. That particular entry may offer a theoretical direction for interpreting statistical data involving animal communication as a form of emotional expression (for example, "A Note on Acoustic Analysis of Dairy Calves Vocalizations at Day 1 After Separation" ''Italian Journal of Animal Science'' vol. 8, no. 33, 113-19, 2009). Even as early as the Presocratic Pythagoras, a strong defense of the ontological value of animal experience and its ontological implications could be noticed. Various permutations of this thesis are therefore subsequently taken up in critical examination – denied, debated, or reformulated in subsequent thinkers ranging from Hegel to Locke, Whitehead and, currently, Nussbaum and Cobb.
The question as to whether animals experience emotional lives in such a way that a unified subject of a life – a "personality" or mind – is constituted is important not only for the sciences but for the humanities as well, particularly within the domains of animal ethics and political ecology. Assessing the emotional lives of animals, and the cognitive expression of such lives, may be useful for improving human and nonhuman animal relations if it can be established that the personality and agency of animals (presented through the exterior expression of interior "animal experience") warrants a more ethical, or even political, obligation on the part of human beings. This volume pushes these questions to their limits in that we are not only just interested to know whether animals can "think" (an issue covered in the [[''Cognition and Decision'']][http://www.livingbooksaboutlife.org/books/Cognition_and_Decision] volume of this series) but also whether the communication of animal experience can in turn help humans to measure whether human and nonhuman interactions are to benefit more than one species only.

Freedom Fighter Sekou Kambui Needs Your Help!
Sekou Kambui spent forty years behind bars as a political prisoner, and now he needs our help!
The former Panther, CORE, and SCLC member was diagnosed with liver cancer shortly after his release, and has been in and out of the hospital for cancer treatment as well as other health problems, including severe edema in his leg. The edema requires almost weekly trips to the hospital to have fluid drained from his leg, an expense in time and money he can't afford. Though chemotherapy has produced encouraging results so far, the medical bills keep piling up. Despite his poor health, Sekou has continued his work with the organization he founded in prison, the Social Consciousness Development Group, and has continued to speak publicly on behalf of U.S. Political Prisoners. Now he needs our support to get through the trying times ahead.
Help Sekou Kambui continue his long fight for justice in good health!

What is you top choice for smallie crankbait color(s)? for the various fishing seasons???
I'm in VA fishing the upper Potomac and use only two cranks all day long. The water is too fast IMO for tubes, so I use only crankbaits and inline spinners. First crank is a Rapala suspending glass shad, the color is black with tiny gold dots. The second is the BPS premium line of cranks (the packaging looks like Lucky Craft, but it is the BPS knock off...), color is splatter-back. Both rake the fish in, and both are $6 or a little less.
BTW the spinner I use is the Mepps Black Fury #3 or #4 w/red dots.
Over the years the most productive crankbait for me has been the Rapala Shad Rap, deep or shallow divers depending on water depth, in shad color. Another is the jointed Shad Rap in red crawdad.
This year I tried the new colors, bleeding olive flash and bleeding pearl with decent success.
In PA I use a perch colored Rapala jointed shad rap it seems to work just about anytime pretty good but it excels in prespawn.
#1 color is crayfish in the river.
Top 5 baits: Bandit 100, Mann's baby 1-, Luhr Jensen Klawdad, 1/4oz plastic big O, and LC RC 1.5 (#1 crankbait this year so far).
rear #6 red triple grip.
For shallow situations, Mann's baby 1 minus in craw, white, chartruese.
Deeper, a Brad's Wiggler in craw color.
I fish big water(Ky.Lake)most of the smallmouth are deep.
rattlin rapala brown craw dad color, x rap olive green shinner color, rat l trap baby bass, mans -1 plus baby bass, also i like the micro cranks for ul tackle such as the rat l trap 1/4 oz i belive it is in baby bass and crawdad color (red).
No kidding? I use the #4 for northern pike. Never thought to give it a try for smallies.
I like the jointed Shad Rap in a crawdad color. Caught several this summer on a shad colored 1 1/4 oz Rattletrap imitation. All were better than 2.5lbs. Might be my new favorite :-/.

You can read all the Trustpilot reviews for Ark Design/Build here.
Jenny on 25th June 2018, said: I can't recommend this company enough. Having thoroughly researched all our options when it came to the design and build of our garden room/office, there was no competition when it came to deciding which company to use. Directors Piers and Tim had a thoroughly professional approach from start to finish.Their design ideas were fresh, the quality of the build is fantastic, they were a pleasure to have on site and there was no hidden costs at any stage. I even caught them hoovering the grass on the last day so as not to leave any unwanted mess!Don't be put off if you have to wait before they can fit your project in. These guys know what they are doing and you will come away with a beautiful building that will serve you well for years to come.
"I can't recommend this company enough"
Yeoms, on 11 June 2018, said: We used to Ark to build a small garden office. They were extremely helpful and professional at all stages. The quote was prompt and detailed. The build ran on schedule with minimal disruption. Most of the time it was just the two directors of the company onsite. The finished build quality is excellent and looks really first class. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Top service.
Bob, on 5th April 2018, said: Excellent workmanship with a team that is deeply invested in the build. The quality of workmanship is outstanding and the team are willing to go that extra mile to ensure you get a quality building you desire. I was kept up to date with the state of the build and even offered suggestions that solved a few issues I hadn't thought of initially.
"Excellent workmanship with a team that is deeply invested in the build"
Helen, on the 29th December 2017, said: I had spent a long time researching companies who built garden rooms to find the right one for me and my family, but still was unsure about the big company approach that seemed to be out there. It was by chance that I learnt about Arkdesign through Instagram. A site visit was booked and I met with Tim for the first time and immediately I felt reassured and loved their approach, especially knowing that it would be just Tim and his partner Piers on site most days. They are committed, enthusiastic, show excellent customer care and are generally all round nice guys! The final results are very impressive. I am very happy and am looking forward to enjoying my garden room for years to come. 100% recommend them!
"I spent a long time researching..."

Focus on the long term. Diets fail when people fall back into poor eating habits; maintaining weight loss over the long term is exceedingly difficult. Most people regain the weight they've lost. In fact, some studies indicate that 90 to 95 percent of all dieters regain some or all of the weight originally lost within five years. Your program should include plans for ongoing weight maintenance, involving diet, exercise and a behavioral component. While there are some physical reasons for obesity, there are also behavioral reasons for excessive eating. For example, many women use food as a source of comfort (perhaps to deal with stress). For these women, a weight loss program with a behavioral component will offer alternatives to replace food in this role.
The '90s turned toward a lot more talk about "fat-blasting" in the Snackwell's/heroin chic era. But as the new millennium dawned, front cover messages started to sway from scolding to encouraging. Which makes sense: Why would someone want a magazine to yell at them? That's why the current crop of women's health magazine headlines stress taking time for yourself over how flat your abs might get. As Elizabeth Goodman, editor-in-chief of Shape magazine, explained via email: "As a women's magazine, it's our job to help women be their best selves—both inside and out. However, we don't want to set the standard for normal or tell women what normal is; we want to encourage women to find and be proud of their normal… Our approach with our readers is not to judge or demand, just to inspire and support."
Women's empowerment relates to women's ability to make life choices (158). Higher levels of empowerment were associated with increased income, household decision-making, control over resources, and utilization of health resources (5, 158–160). For nutrition outcomes, empowerment was associated with increased income allocated to food expenditures and improved household food security (160, 161). It was also associated with increased dietary diversity, but had no impact on women's BMI (5, 161, 162). For example, mothers' participation in empowerment activities through Helen Keller International's Enhanced Homestead Food Production (EHFP) program in Burkina Faso was associated with increased fruit intake (difference-in-differences = 15.8 percentage points, P = 0.02) and nearly statistically significant increases in meat intake and dietary diversity (163). Participation was also associated with decreased prevalence of underweight (difference-in-differences = −8.7 percentage points, P < 0.01) but not overall mean BMI (163). In addition, the EHFP program in Bangladesh and Nepal was associated with decreasing trends in maternal anemia (anemia prevalence decreased by a magnitude of 12%, P = 0.075 in Bangladesh, and 26%, P = 0.009 in Nepal) (160). However, this was not consistent with findings from Cambodia (160).
Schools (and universities) ↓/NC anemia, ↓ Fe-deficiency anemia, ↑/NC MN status [Hgb (↑ if anemic), ferritin, zinc, retinol], ↑ MN status [folate, riboflavin, 25(OH)D, iodine], ↓ PTH, ↓ goiter prevalence, ↓ MN deficiency (vitamin A, B-12, C), ↑ bone mineral accretion, ↑/NC weight gain/BMI, ↑ MUAC, ↑ gut inflammation, ↓/NC respiratory symptoms and diarrheal morbidity, ↑ fitness (for Fe-deficient subjects), ↑/NC short-term cognitive function ↑ Hgb (↑ if anemic), ↑ serum ferritin, ↑ total body Fe, ↑ urinary iodine concentration, ↑ serum zinc, ↑ aerobic power, NC net energetic efficiency
Something else to remember: an estimated 90 to 95 percent of dieters who lose weight regain all or part of it within five years, and the consequences can be even worse than simply being overweight. Those who exercise regularly as part of a weight loss diet and maintenance program are more likely to keep the weight off. Also note that an overly restrictive diet can lead to more overeating, a natural reaction to food deprivation.
It takes a lot of discipline to turn down a cupcake or roll out of your warm bed for a cold morning run. To make staying on track easier, it's important to make a real connection with your motivation, says Tara Gidus, R.D., co-host of Emotional Mojo. So think less about fitting into your skinny jeans or spring break bikini and more about emotional ties to the people you love. "Your relationships will grow stronger when you are physically healthy and taking care of yourself," she says.
More power to these women, and sure, you could say that fashion and magazines are aspirational over reality-based. If you want reality, look in a mirror, but that's just it: The super-cut flat abs of Maria Menounos are a far cry from most of us, and can even more damaging to young girls who would do better to avoid the unrealistic ideals that their mothers and older sisters had to grow up with.
